For the rest of the month, there was still no response to the letters in the capital. www.biquge.info When Fan Yuncheng was dealing with affairs every day, what he thought about the most was the tragedy of Lord Zhang Yuanzhi's family. It's just that there is no breakthrough, and there is no clue so far.

"Sir!"

Fan Yuncheng was depressed when he heard someone shouting outside the door.

"Is it Xiao Ni?" Fan Yuncheng saw Xiao Ni standing outside the door, and hurriedly beckoned her in. After recuperating in Fan's Mansion for more than a month, her body has basically recovered. Because she is smart and cute, Fan Mansion likes her very much. For the tragedy that happened, the Fan Mansion didn't ask her, this is because Mrs. specially told her not to stimulate this weak girl anymore, to recall those terrible things, and Fan Yu, the child, still doesn't know that something happened in his grandfather's family, and if this child knows, he will cry sadly.

"Master, Madame wants you to go back to the house tonight, Madame has something to say. Xiao Ni was a little curious when she saw the case file that Fan Yuncheng was writing.

"Can Xiao Ni write?" asked Fan Yuncheng.

"Xiao Ni is a subordinate person, he can't write, he can only do some rough work. Xiao Ni hurriedly waved his hand.

"If you have time, you can learn to write with your wife, your wife is a good handwriter. As soon as Ling Xiao's words were mentioned, Fan Yuncheng praised them, if Mrs. was a man, then her words would definitely be famous all over the world.

"Yes, sir. ”

"Go back and tell Madame, I'll be back in time. ”

Fan Yuncheng doesn't know why, he especially likes Xiao Ni, a child. Before Ling Xiao gave birth to Yu'er, he always wanted a daughter, but he was born as a son, and he was so tired that Ling Xiao fell seriously ill and didn't take care of his body for several years. With such a beautiful and lively girl by his side at this moment, he felt a happiness that he had never felt before. Since he was a child, he has been talking to his wife about keeping this child, but Ling Xiao has never let go, and he is inconvenient to promise anything to this child.

Xiao Nie looked at Fan Yuncheng's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and knew what he was thinking at this time, she had always wanted to stay in Fan's mansion, but the Fan Lord in front of her listened to Mrs. in everything, if Mrs. didn't open her mouth to keep people, he would never take the initiative to speak.

"Master, if there is nothing else, I'll go back to the house first. ”

"Ah, can you tell Madame for me, can you make some pastries and bring them over?" Fan Yuncheng remembered that he had rested too late at night recently, and sometimes he was really hungry, and it would be great if he had a piece of pastry made by Madame at that time.

"Okay, sir, I'll go back and talk to Madame. ”

Looking at the back of Xiao Ni's departure, Fan Yuncheng sighed softly, he wanted to open his mouth to his wife several times, asking her to keep the child, but Ling Xiao had been frowning and worried about his wife for a long time, he had been worried about his wife's body, and it was not good to mention this matter again. If it weren't for Madame's poor health over the years, maybe she would still be willing to give birth to another one for herself, but this can only be said in the bottom of her heart, and Fan Yuncheng will not say it to Ling Xiao. He sighed abruptly, remembering that on the road to Yongzhou, Ling Xiao's words of reproaching himself were not unreasonable, there were too many things that he couldn't let go, so he added so many troubles.

After Xiao Nee finished delivering the message for Mrs., she hurried to Mrs. Jun's place, and happened to pass by Fan Jun's room, hearing the sound of the brothers frolicking inside, she smiled slightly, she didn't want to stop, but Fan Yu suddenly mentioned her name, which made her can't help but stop curiously.

"If my brother doesn't copy the books for me, I'll go and tell Sister Xiao Ni......" Fan Yu in the house had books in front of him, but the eldest brother next to him had finished his homework early and was playing a game of pitching pots next to him, disturbing his mind and making him a little angry.

"It was my mother who said that when I was playing on the sidelines, you had to copy books there and exercise your concentration. Fan Junjun's face was a little naughty, this good errand sent to him by his mother was indeed the happiest thing for him since his grandfather's family suffered misfortune.

"Hmph, my mother is eccentric, she doesn't care about you or me. Fan Yu pouted angrily and didn't want to write a word.

"Xiao Yu, don't let your mother hear this, you will hit your little ass hard. Fan Jun reached out and touched Fan Yu's buttocks.

"Ah...... Brother, you are so bad, if you dare to tell your mother, I will tell my mother about you and Sister Xiaoni. Fan Yu also showed no weakness.

Fan Jun was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand why the little brother said this, since Xiao Nirvana's body gradually recovered, he rarely had verbal communication with Xiao Nirvana, sometimes he walked opposite the house, and he just bowed or nodded, and then they were busy with their own work, he thought about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with it.

"What's wrong with me and Xiao Ni, are we nothing?" Fan Jun looked innocent.

"Huh...... Is there really nothing?" Fan Yu asked him in a lengthened voice.

"Is there really nothing?" Fan Jun really couldn't think of anything inappropriate between him and Xiao Ni.

"The day Sister Ni was picked up by you, you ...... Didn't you do anything wrong?" Fan Yu had a strange look on his face, "That day, wow...... You were ...... that day."

"Xiao Yu, you...... Shut up, you promised me not to say it. Fan Jun's face turned red, and he remembered Xiao Ni's corset that slipped down, so that this kid could see it.

"You're ...... I saw Xiao Ni's sister's chest......" Fan Yutong's voice reached Xiao Ni's ears, her cheeks turned red, she only remembered that Fan Jun hugged him back in a coma, she didn't know anything about what happened in the future, and she only knew that day...... She didn't want to listen to it anymore, so she turned around and ran back, and when she ran across the corner of the house and came to the stone path, she happened to collide with Ling Xiao and Xing'er, she didn't bother to say hello to them, flashed past the side, and hurriedly ran away.

"This kid, what's the matter today, what's going on so flustered. Xing'er looked at Xiao Ni with some dissatisfaction in the direction where Xiao Ni ran away.

Ling Xiao didn't look back at Xiao Ni, but looked in the direction that Xiao Ni ran over, which was the room of his youngest son. She temporarily changed her mind and did not go to Fan Yuncheng's study, but walked directly into Fan Yu's room.

Fan Jun and Fan Yu were frolicking in the house, but they didn't expect their mother to push the door and walk in at this time, so frightened that they hurriedly stopped their hands and shouted together: "Mother." ”

"What were you doing just now?" Ling Xiao asked.

"My mother arranged for the children to play a game of pitching pots here, and let me watch Yu'er copy the book. Fan Jun replied in a low voice.

"But just now, didn't you watch Yu'er copy the book and be lazy, did you?"

"No! we don't!" replied in unison.

"Okay, let me ask you, what was Xiao Ni running away from here just now?" Ling Xiao sank his face.

Fan Jun and Fan Yu were dumbfounded when they heard their mother's question, their brothers didn't expect Xiao Ni to be outside the house, so ...... Didn't she hear all those things she just said?

"Why don't you speak?" Ling Xiao asked again.

"Mother...... It was the child's fault, we didn't expect her...... will be outside. Fan Jun blushed.

It was the first time for Ling Xiao to see his eldest son's red-faced appearance, and his heart was even more strange, at this time, Fan Yu was still a child after all, and he didn't have those taboos in his mind, so he opened his mouth and said: "Mother, we just ...... I just said something about my sister. ”

"What's the matter?" Ling Xiao was shocked and hurriedly asked.

"It's nothing, my brother won't let me say it. Fan Yu wanted to say it, but his brother was pulling his shirt vigorously behind him, and he didn't dare to say it.

"Since you were sensible, I have taught you how to behave, have you all forgotten at this time?"

"The child doesn't dare to forget, it's just that we didn't mean it. ”

"You two, do you want me to die in a hurry? ”

"Mother, don't hit me, Yu'er said......" Fan Yu was anxious when he heard it, "It's my brother who is not good, the day he brought Sister Xiao Ni back, he saw his sister's here......" He pointed to his chest.

Ling Xiao was stunned and turned his gaze to Fan Jun, Fan Jun looked at his mother's stern gaze, and had to say, "I was ...... I only cared about saving her, but I didn't expect her clothes to ...... Opened ......"

"My sister will have children. Fan Yu said loudly.

"Xiao Yu, don't talk nonsense. Fan Jun was a little anxious, he couldn't say anything clearly, and he was still stirring up here.

"Jun'er...... You, you've insulted her. Ling Xiao's tone changed.

"No, I didn't, mother, how could I do such a filthy thing? It was just her that day...... Her corset was open, and I didn't do anything else. Fan Jun was also anxious.

"Hey, I know about this, don't argue with you. Xing'er listened to it on the sidelines, and she happened to hear it when the two brothers were arguing that day, and she must have been confused when the little girl heard a word.

"That's right, Aunt Xing, Aunt Xing told me that men and women will have babies when they are together......" Fan Yu looked at his mother with a look of grievance.

Ling Xiao finally understood the words of the two brothers, at this time she really couldn't cry or laugh, and Xing next to her didn't know how to answer the little master's words: "Alas, I was coaxing you to play with what I said, you can't take it seriously." ”

"Oh! Yu'er knew she was wrong. Fan Yu saw his mother's increasingly ugly face, so he had to bow his head and admit his mistake.

"It's a misunderstanding, you must be careful when you speak and do things in the future, and beware of misfortune coming out of your mouth. Ling Xiao sighed softly, "Since it was a misunderstanding, don't mention this matter today, Xiao Ni, I'll go and explain it to her." ”

Fan Jun's brothers didn't dare to come out, so they had to let their mother deal with it. Ling Xiao walked out of Fan Yu's room, and only after a while did he say something to reproach Xing'er: "You are also an elder now, why do you say everything to Yu'er? That child, you have watched him grow up since he was a child, and he is a more serious master in everything, just like his father, and if you want to say anything to him about male and female children, what does he know, he will only talk nonsense." ”

"Madame...... It's my mistake that I shouldn't have talked too much. Xing'er couldn't think of her words to coax the child, but this Fan Yu took it seriously.

Ling Xiao quietly came to Xiao Ni's residence, she could hear Xiao Ni's crying from outside the door, she didn't dare to cry loudly, just stayed in the house and sobbed quietly, Ling Xiao sighed in her heart, now this poor child is helpless, but she has added this layer of misunderstanding, no wonder she is so sad. She stepped forward and gently pushed the door open.

Xiao Nie saw that she opened the door, hurriedly stood up, and wiped away the tears on her face in a little panic.

"Madame...... I went to the master just now, and he said, he said to let Madame, make some pastries, ......" Xiao Ni remembered Fan Yuncheng's instructions, and said with the grievances in her heart.

"Xiao Ni, did you hear the conversation between my two dogs?" Ling Xiao asked lightly.

"Madame...... Little Nirvana, no, didn't hear anything. Xiao Ni shook her head gently, but when she thought of what she had just heard, she was full of grievances, and tears couldn't help but flow down her eyes.

"Come with me. Ling Xiao sighed, turned around and walked out.

"Madame......! Go. Xiao Ni said hurriedly.

"I don't want you and Jun'er to confront each other face to face, you are a girl, you are already ashamed to hear this kind of thing, and if you hear anything in person, I don't know what will happen to you. ”

"The lady called me...... Where to go?" asked Nirvana, puzzled.

"Go to the kitchen and help me make some osmanthus cakes. Ling Xiao didn't say anything more and walked out of the room.

Xiao Ni didn't want to go with her, but for some reason, as long as this Mrs. Fan gave an order, there was no disobedience from top to bottom of this Fan Mansion, since she arrived at the Fan Mansion, she noticed that this Mrs. Fan handled things in an orderly manner, and did things carefully and carefully, that Lord Fan Yuncheng didn't need to worry about things at home at all, this lady took care of it up and down in an orderly manner, she naturally admired it in her heart, although she was in a bad mood at this time, these two feet involuntarily followed her forward.

When they came to the kitchen, Ling Xiao asked her, "Have you cooked before?"

Xiao Ni shook her head, she didn't know anything about the kitchen. Ling Xiao poured the glutinous rice flour that had been made by the apricots on the table into the tile basin, took out the dried osmanthus and honey from the cupboard, poured it with the glutinous rice flour, and slowly drained the water into the basin.

"Xiao Ni, you come and help me stir the ingredients in this pot, keep stirring, I'll let you stop and stop again. ”

"Yes, madam!" Xiao Ni stirred the food in the basin vigorously, she didn't think about anything in her mind at this time, just kept stirring, and before she knew it, her grievances were gone, and she was only thinking about how to help Mrs. make this osmanthus cake at the moment.

Ling Xiao looked at her from the side, and saw that her complexion gradually became ruddy, and her expression was not as sad as before, so she knew that this osmanthus cake was worth it today.

"Go wash your hands and help me make noodles. Ling Xiao motioned for her to stop.

Ling Xiao divided the rice dough into two, half handed it to Xiao Nirvana, and half used it himself, Xiao Ni learned to do it while watching Ling Xiao's movements, and after the rice dough of the two was ready, Ling Xiao put the two rice doughs into the pot for steaming.

With the white mist slowly rising in the pot, a sweet fragrance rushed into Xiao Ni's nose, Xiao Ni smelled such fragrant food for the first time in her life, she was pleasantly surprised, Ling Xiao, who was sitting next to her, smiled slightly, this child must really have a fate with the Fan family, otherwise how could she sit here at this time, quietly waiting for the cake to come out of the pot with herself.

Ling Xiao took the two cakes out of the pot after they were cooked, flipping them back and forth on the board, and Xiao Ni also followed her little by little to learn. After the two pieces of cake were sorted out, Ling Xiao used a knife to cut the cake into small strips, but she was very careful to separate the pastries made by Xiao Ni from the pastries she made, and Xiao Ni watched her do these things with some puzzlement.

"You try the osmanthus cake you made first, how does it taste?" Ling Xiao pointed to the pastry made by Xiao Ni herself, Xiao Ni picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, the osmanthus cake was fragrant and delicious, it was delicious, she nodded happily: "Madam, Xiao Ni made it delicious." ”

"Then you can try another piece of osmanthus cake I made. Ling Xiao picked up a piece of pastry in front of her and handed it to her.

Xiao Ni looked at Mrs. in puzzlement, put the pastry made by Ling Xiao into her mouth, she chewed the pastry, and suddenly stopped, this pastry is exactly the same as the pastry she made, but Madame's pastry is softer than what she made, sweeter and glutinous, and melts in her mouth.

She swallowed the pastry in her mouth and looked up, "Madame, why? Why do you make pastries better than mine?" ”

"Xiao Ni, think carefully about all the processes when we made the pastries just now, what is the difference?" Ling Xiao asked with a smile.

Xiao Ni carefully recalled the whole process of production, and Mrs. Fan was only slower than herself, and each process was repeated several times, and nothing else.

"Little Nirvana doesn't understand......" Little Nirvana muttered.

"After a long time, you will understand that eating is the same as being a person, and you have to go through many times of steaming and kneading to taste the taste. ”

Xiao Nirvana looked at her in a daze: "Didn't Madame carry me and add other materials?"

"Little Nirvana...... You're a smart kid, I did add two flavors to it, and it was added in front of you, you really didn't see it?" Ling Xiao nodded slightly, and then asked her.

Xiao Ni really didn't know what she added, why the same pastry had a different taste.

"After a long time at home, you will naturally know. Ling Xiao said softly.

"Madame...... What do you mean, can I stay?" asked Nirvana in surprise.

"Just stay for the time being, and what will happen in the future, none of us knows. Ling Xiao can only make such a promise to this child.

"Thank you, ma'am, thank you, ma'am, I can stay, I really can stay. Little Nirvana jumped up, turned around and ran out.

Ling Xiao watched her leave, and there was a trace of sourness in her heart, she had been at such a carefree age, but the peace of the Fan family, I don't know how long it can last, the bad luck faced by their Fan family, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to get rid of.
