Qinghan said again: "There is also--"
I looked at him: "What else?"
He glanced at me, lowered his head, and coughed lightly: "You, I don't want to get too close to him."
After saying this, he seemed to be very awkward, so he hurriedly reached out to sort out the paper and pen on the table.
But I was completely stunned. I didn't expect that he would suddenly say this, especially when he saw the tips of his ears turned red. It took a while before he came to his senses - was he jealous?
A smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, and my eyes were slightly bent to look at him.
Maybe I felt more and more uncomfortable. He couldn't even clean up the paper and pen. Seeing the brush rolling onto the table and dyeing the ink in his hand, I held back my smile and pulled his sleeves: "Okay, don't move around, be careful to get all over. I'll do it."
He took the opportunity to get up and take a step back.
I smiled and helped him pack up the things. At this time, the servant knocked in and asked him if he wanted to use lunch, but he realized that it was already noon.
He nodded, then turned to look at me: "Do you want to use it with me?"
"OK."
When the servant saw that I was also in his room, he was stunned for a moment, immediately saluted me, then retreated and asked the kitchen to prepare to deliver meals for two people here.
I sat at the table with him, and a few cold cuts were placed on it soon. While the two of them were talking insignificant gossip, they ate. I picked up an old vinegar peanut. As soon as I threw it into my mouth, my eyes were sore that I narrowed my eyes.
"Wow, why are you so sour?"
“Is it sour?”
He saw that my neck was so sore that my neck was shrinking, and he was curious and grabbed one and threw it into his mouth. He almost choked.
Seeing his embarrassed look, I laughed so hard that tears flowed out. He squinted his eyes for a long time and couldn't relieve himself. It was not until he poured half a cup of tea that he finally diluted the sour taste in his mouth and sighed: "Sure enough, the old vinegar in Shanxi is really well-deserved."
I remembered what he said to me just now, and smiled and put the plate in front of him: "Come on, don't be afraid, you can drink the most jealous."
He glared at me and couldn't help laughing.
Although the plate of old vinegar and peanuts was sour, the two of them ate one by one, which was very appetizing. When the food was all set, I felt that I could already swallow a cow.
But at this moment, a maid outside came to ask for a meeting. When I saw that it was the one who served Miaoyan.
She stood at the door and said respectfully: "Miss Yan, Your Highness, let me come and invite you."
"Please me?"
"Yes, the princess's room has already been prepared. Please ask Miss Yan to come over."
“…”
I was stunned for a moment.
I had breakfast with her this morning, and we were both mother and daughter together for the whole morning. We just left her, but we didn't expect someone to come and invite me again.
...
She is really too attached to me.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel warm. When I looked up at Qinghan, I hesitated: "I--"
He smiled and said, "You go."
“…”
"You mother and daughter have been separated for so long, and it is rare to get together."
“…”
"You should spend more time with her."
I nodded, stood up with the table, and looked at the food that had been set up and the plate of old vinegar peanuts that had been eaten to the end of the soup. I felt a little apologized and said, "Then you have a good meal."
"I'm so old, are you still worried about me?"
I smiled, then turned around and walked out.
The maid took me to Miaoyan's room. She was guarding a table of food. When she saw me coming, she immediately came over happily and held my arm: "Mom!"
I smiled and twisted her little nose: "I haven't seen you again after a while. Haven't you grown up yet?"
Her little chin hit my elbow and said obediently: "I just don't want to grow up."
My heart was about to melt. She led me to the table to sit down. Since it was prepared in the kitchen, the style of the food was of course similar to that of Qinghan. I saw that there was also a plate of old vinegar peanuts here and couldn't help but smile.
Miaoyan happened to see it and asked me: "Mom, why are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing. Have a meal soon, don't wait for the food to get cold."
"Um."
With my daughter accompanying me, and the old vinegar peanuts I had eaten half a plate before, I also had a lot of lunch, and Miaoyan even sucked her belly. I was half relieved, so that she would not lose weight as before, but she also told her - "Don't eat like this when you go out in the future, just 70% full, so that others will not see you as hungry wolf."
"I understand."
She held her belly and looked at me with a gaze: "Mom, can you accompany me out for a walk?"
"Okay, I can eat after walking."
She was energetic. Although I was very ill a while ago, I didn't have enough energy and often needed to take a nap, now that my daughter is by my side, I naturally became energetic and took her to the garden for a while. The mansion of the Marquis of Jin was very large, and it was only for the half yard dedicated to the emperor and the empress, and it was too big to see the edges. But I was still very cautious with her and just wandered around the garden. At this time, spring was coming. Although there was no blooming scenery in the garden, some green could be seen on the branches.
As I walked, I walked to the place close to the wing room.
When I saw the closed window, it was the room where Qinghan lived.
I don't know if he had a good meal.
At this moment, Miaoyan stopped, and she held my hand and said, "Mom, let's go and have a stroll over there."
I looked down at her, her expression seemed a little embarrassed.
It seems that she has let go of that matter, but what follows is the problem of Qinghan's attitude. She is not young anymore and knows that she is shy. I am afraid that it will be difficult for her to face Qinghan calmly for a long time.
I didn't force her, and said softly: "Okay."
Turning a few turns to the other side, I entered another garden. The guards here are more stringent than the places we have walked before. Although I am not very familiar with the road here, when I see this posture, I immediately understand whose residence we are close to.
I subconsciously wanted to take her back, but at this moment, Pei Yuanhao had already appeared in front of me. He was explaining something to the people around him. The servant took the order and when he looked up, he saw us.
Miaoyan hurriedly stopped: "My son is paying homage to my father."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she naturally couldn't hide, so I could only bow down and salute: "The girl in the civil service greets His Majesty the Emperor."
Pei Yuanhao walked over slowly, raised his hand, and said, "Why did you come here?"
Miaoyan immediately said: "We just used lunch, and my mother took me out for a walk and eat."
"Oh? It's just right," he listened, smiling and looking at Miaoyan: "I'm going to come out to digest food, come and go with my father."
"yes!"
Miaoyan took a step forward with joy, but remembered me again, and turned around and held my hand: "Mom, come too!"
I felt a little hesitant, but when I saw her happy look, I couldn't bear to refuse, especially the little hand she held my hand tightly, as if she was afraid that I would slip away.
So she pulled her to continue walking in.
Although it was the place where the emperor lived, Chunyi would not be more generous than outside because of his identity, and there was only a little green on the branches. After looking at it for a while, Miaoyan pouted and said, "Why are there no flowers at all? If it were in Jinling, all kinds of flowers would have bloomed in the garden at this time."
When I heard this, my heart couldn't help but feel nervous.
This girl has become a princess and is still unrestrained. How can the matter about Jinling be mentioned casually in front of Pei Yuanhao?
However, she seemed to have reacted immediately, subconsciously closed her mouth and looked at Pei Yuanhao carefully. Unexpectedly, Pei Yuanhao was not angry. I don’t know if he didn’t care or heard it, but just smiled and said, “Who said there are no flowers here?”
"Father, is there any here?"
"come over."
He took us to the corner of the wall, and saw a deep green here, but there was still no petal. Miaoyan was pouting, but he took us around the wall again.
When I walked to the other side, I realized that there was a surprise.
On this side, a large area of golden flowers were hanging on the wall, almost covering the entire wall. When the wind blew, the branches swayed lightly, as if a huge golden brocade was hanging there. When you looked closely, it turned out to be a cluster of forsythia.
Miaoyan couldn't help but say "Wow", and his eyes were so bright that they were surprised.
Everyone had a nearly harsh cold winter. In addition, there was a mourning hall in front of the Hou Mansion, and everyone seemed to have an invisible stone pressing on their heads and hearts, even the spring was suppressed. Now seeing such a nearly brilliant flower, Miaoyan immediately jumped up with joy.
Even when I looked at it, I couldn't help but lift the corners of my mouth.
The place where we stood was separated from the middle of the wall. Miaoyan was already a princess, so she could not climb up and down like before. She could only stand below and stretched out her hand to touch the flower branch.
When Pei Yuanhao saw this, he asked the servant behind him to go up and picked a whole branch down.
Miaoyan immediately stretched out his hand: "I want it!"
The attendant naturally gave her respectfully. The girl held the branches and swayed straight, so happy that her eyes were smiling into a crescent moon. Seeing her daughter being so happy, my heart seemed to be covered with sunshine and warm.
Just as I watched my daughter smile, Pei Yuanhao slowly walked to me and said, "She, it's rare to have such a smile these days."
I was stunned and turned to look at him.
He looked at me and said seriously: "Although I don't know how many days can there be in such a peaceful life, I would like to give it to her."
