Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A little boy of about two years old was staggering, followed by two maids. The older maid had a worried face and kept an eye on the chubby little boy wearing a satin cotton-padded jacket, for fear that he would fall.

    But this chubby little boy was giggling heartlessly. He even grabbed a pastry on the right side of the five-hole nest, and would bring it to his mouth from time to time. When he opened his small mouth, he would take a big mouthful.  He ran to the edge of the corridor and looked at the garden outside eagerly. At this time, the maid behind him firmly disagreed and stepped forward to block his way. The little boy thought he was playing a game with him, so he smiled and stepped forward.  My legs are about to go around the maid.

    The younger maid held a plate in her hand, with half of the silver cake in the boy's hand. She frowned and said, "Sister Luzhu, Xiaoxin is very disobedient. Why don't you take her in?"  ?Otherwise it¡¯s very windy outside and the two of us can¡¯t afford something to go wrong.¡±

    It turns out that this little boy is Li Zuoguo's eldest son, the eldest son of the Li family, whose name is Li Zhongyang. He is also the sweetheart of Li Zuoguo's mother Wen Shi, who is now the governor of Kucha. Li Zhongyang, who is already two years old, is at his most energetic and curious about everything.  He has learned to walk, and now the four little maids aged sixteen or seventeen are exhausted by him. However, precisely because of his presence, Wen's miserable mood quickly recovered. If Wen couldn't see this grandson every day,  I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat.

    Xiaoxin's mother Xiaoyun, now the second wife Zhang, is called Mrs. Yun by the servants in the mansion. Seeing this situation, she simply moved her son to the courtyard next to the Wen family's house so that it would be easier for Wen family to hold her grandson.  Two mothers and four maids took care of the little one. During the day, the four maids took care of Xiao Xin. The four maids were named Meilan, Zhuju, namely Sumei, Yalan, Lvzhu and Moju. At this time, they followed Xiaoxin.  The new ones are green bamboo and black chrysanthemum.

    The older maid Lu Zhu, while transforming into a wall to block Xiao Xin who kept trying to rush down the corridor and into the courtyard, said: "Mrs. Yun said that Xiao Xin should be allowed to walk after eating.  Running is good for your health, he is wearing a lot of clothes, so he should be fine, but there is a pond in the yard, so he is not allowed to run into the yard."

    Mo Ju sighed and said helplessly: "Sister Luzhu, you are just accommodating him. Xiaoxin, sister has some cakes here, shall we go inside? Go inside and sister will give you another piece of cake."

    Xiaoxin turned around. He could now basically understand what the adults said. His big eyes were widened. He put his little hand into his mouth and held his little finger in his mouth. He was obviously considering this proposal. Then he looked at the silver cake that didn't have much left.  , made a decision, and said: "I wantcake." Then he opened his little hand and walked towards Mo Ju.

    Mo Ju was overjoyed when she saw it, she knelt down and said, "Good boy, Xiaoxin, shall we go inside and play with the little lion doll?"

    At this time, a figure emerged from the corridor. The figure was tall and handsome. He was only wearing the green clothes of a servant of the Duhu Mansion, but when he walked, he looked as if he was wearing the best clothes in the world. He was confident and confident.  With a touch of alienation, it was Zheng Chunyun who had returned to Qiuci.

    Zheng Chunyun was also a disciple of Li Bai who lived in the backyard of the Duhu Mansion. Although he was born as a servant, none of the ladies in the mansion regarded him as a servant. In name, Zheng Chunyun was Li Zuoguo's junior disciple, but as soon as Zheng Chunyun came back, he put on the green clothes worn by the servants.  , and immediately began to serve the old woman Wen Shi. Wen Shi persuaded Zheng Chunyun several times, but Zheng Chunyun simply ignored him. Zheng Chunyun did what Wen Shi persuaded him, and Zheng Chunyun did his own thing.

    Zheng Chunyun has been in the palace since he was a child, and he has always been very skilled in serving people. In addition, he is a servant, and there is no guard between men and women. Zheng Chunyun takes good care of Wen's food, clothing, housing and transportation. Wen's son Li Zuoguo often goes out to fight.  We have only seen each other for a few days every year. Zheng Chunyun is surprisingly good to Wen. In addition to his handsome and lovable appearance, Wen is also very good to Zheng Chunyun.

    Now, Zheng Chunyun has just arrived a few days ago, but all the servants in the mansion know that Zheng Chunyun is also an important figure in the mansion, and they don't dare to be presumptuous in front of Zheng Chunyun. However, Zheng Chunyun is only affectionate and likeable in front of the three wives of Li Zuoguo and the Wen family.  , but in front of these people, he is as cold as ice. In Mo Ju's words, he is completely like an ice cube, and he can freeze people just by looking at them.

    Xiaoxin also saw Zheng Chunyun. A child is the most innocent in heart and knows who is good to him. Although the servants in the house are a little afraid of Zheng Chunyun, Xiaoxin is not afraid at all. He just raised his little hand and shouted: "  Uncle Chang Nu, give me a hug." He spread his short legs and ran towards Zheng Chunyun.

    After all, Xiaoxin was only two years old and had been running for a long time. At this time, after taking two steps out, his legs gave way and he fell forward. The two girls, Green Bamboo and Black Chrysanthemum, were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they shouted in unison: "  Ah!" cried out.

    Zheng Chunyun also really loves Xiaoxin. He just saw Xiaoxin rushing towards him with a smile on his face. When he saw Xiaoxin was about to fall, his expression changed and he rushed out. Zheng Chunyun was originally about ten steps away from Xiaoxin.?, the child fell such a long distance and there was no time to stop him. Even Lvzhu and Moju who were so close had no time to help Xiaoxin. They could only watch Xiaoxin fall. The two women were filled with fear. Xiaoxin  It can be said that he is the treasure of the Li family. If there is an accident, the two of them will not be able to carry it around.

    As soon as Zheng Chunyun rushed out, the words "Ah." had just come out of the two girls' mouths, and they felt that their eyes were blurred, and a green shadow flashed. Zheng Chunyun had already held Xiaoxin in his arms. The child was not sensible, but he still thought it was fun. Under Zheng Chunyun  He kept twisting in his arms, giggling and wanting to get off the ground, as if he wanted to do it again.

    Lu Zhu and Mo Ju, who were covered in cold sweat, hurriedly stepped forward, "Is there any injury? Xiaoxin!" "Let me see, you are not scared." The two women said together, with worry on their faces.

    Zheng Chunyun looked at Xiaoxin and laughed: "It's okay, be careful in the future. I'm going to see Mrs. Yun. I heard that Mrs. Ariel is also with Mrs. Yun?"

    Luzhu squatted slightly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zheng. Mrs. Ariel has been here for a while. Mrs. Yun is talking to her. Mrs. Huan is also here. They are all in the hall. Mrs. Ariel said  We are having dinner here, Manager Zheng can just go in, but thanks to Manager Zheng's quickness, otherwise we wouldn't be able to bear the blame if anything happens to Xiaoxin."

    Zheng Chunyun nodded, handed Xiaoxin into Lu Zhu's arms, and said: "Xiaoxin, don't run around in the future. If you fall, your two sisters will be punished. If you want to run, go to your special room.  There is no fear of falling."

    Xiaoxin opened his round eyes wide and said, "Oh." He obviously turned a deaf ear to Zheng Chunyun's words. There was a special room for him to walk in. The room was very large, and there were all kinds of Xiaoxin's toys, and the floor was covered with carpets.  There is a thick layer of carpet, and it will be fine even if you fall on your butt 17 or 18 times inside.

    After Zheng Chunyun handed the child to Lu Zhu, he silently turned his head to Xiaoxin with a warm smile on his face, and turned around and entered the room. During this period, he ignored Lu Zhu's words and didn't even look at the two girls.  Zheng Chunyun is not arrogant, but his temperament is a bit aloof. In addition, Li Siye's death has always been a big burden in his heart, so he doesn't want to pay attention to anyone except Li Zuoguo's family. Li Zuoguo also persuaded Zheng Chunyun, but Zheng Chunyun accepted death.  , Li Zuoguo had no choice but to let time slowly dilute this unapproachable character. After all, Zheng Chunyun was only seventeen years old.

    Seeing Zheng Chunyun walking into the room, Mo Ju pouted unhappily: "What the hell? With the support of the old lady, I was given the title of general manager, but I was arrogant and only smiled at the old lady and the three ladies.  , he¡¯s nothing but a flatterer.¡±

    Lu Zhu glared at Mo Ju fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Zheng is the guard's junior brother. I heard that his martial arts skills are very high. His temper is like this. Didn't you see that even Chu Liuhou didn't give a good look to him?  How big an official is Liu Hou? Manager Zheng sent him out directly, but Chu Liu Hou is still smiling."

    After Chu Liu left, he was Chu Tianshu. After Duan Tianhe left, Li Zuoguo appointed Chu Tianshu as the envoy to Anxi. He was in charge of the civil affairs of Anxi. It can be said to be the highest civil servant position in Anxi. The day before yesterday, Chu Tianshu came to the Duhu Mansion to visit the Wen family.  After staying a little longer, Zheng Chunyun saw that Mr. Wen looked a little tired and immediately issued an eviction order. Zheng Chunyun did not have any official position in his eyes. He only saw Li Zuoguo and Li Zuoguo's relatives. This scene happened to be seen by several maids.  , and it became a hot topic in the mansion.

    Zheng Chunyun served the Wen family in the Li Mansion, even without an identity. The Wen family directly appointed Zheng Chunyun as the chief manager of the Li Mansion, just in name. Zheng Chunyun's main task was to protect Li Zuoguo's mother, wife and children. He did other things  No questions were asked, which also made the previous stewards in the mansion breathe a sigh of relief.

    After being appointed as the general manager, several stewards went to Zheng Chunyun specifically to check on Zheng Chunyun's acceptance of things there. Zheng Chunyun directly dismissed them with two sentences: "Just do what you did, and don't come.  Ask me, I won't care, and I don't want to care. You can just go on as usual, but don't let me hear any disrespectful rumors about the old lady and the three ladies in the house in the future. Otherwise, think about this in your head first.  Is the rock hard?¡±

    After saying that, he hit a carved stone pillow with his palm. The granite stone pillow immediately broke into pieces. Several supervisors turned pale with fright, only to find out that Zheng Chunyun turned out to be a martial arts expert. After returning, Zheng Chunyun's martial arts were so strong.  The whole government knew about it.

    Zheng Chunyun walked in and walked through a short corridor to a small hall inside. Ariel was sitting at the top, with Xiaoyun and Xiaohuan on both sides. Ariel's belly was already bulging.  The seven-month pregnancy is already very obvious. There is a plate of green grapes on the small table next to Ariel. Ariel happily talks to Xiaoyun and Xiaohuan, and occasionally picks up a grape to give away.  In the import.

    Ariel¡¯s face is now much rounder,%% of the young women with small stockings have given birth to children, but they are still as pretty as girls who have not yet left the palace, and Xiaohuan has another style. Although Xiaohuan does not wear heavy makeup, Xiaohuan, who already has clear outlines, married Li Zuoguo  After that, her whole body radiated the heat of youth, and her charm skyrocketed. Her facial features revealed the charm of a mature woman, and her personality was innocent and charming. Not only did Ariel like her, but Mr. Wen also liked her temperament.

    Ariel has become accustomed to Li Zuoguo's expeditions, often going out for several months at a time. Originally, she was as worried about Li Zuoguo's safety as Wen Shi, but now Ariel's greater attention is on the child in her belly, plus  Growing up in Ashina, the father and brother in the tribe often went out to fight with other tribes. Men were always the opposite of women, so they had a more relaxed attitude.

    Ashina Hejia and Ashina Fami are now in charge of the entire livestock industry in Anxi, and they often come to see Ariel. Ariel's mother has also recently come to live in the Protector's Mansion, taking care of Ariel, a pregnant woman nearby.  , so apart from not having Li Zuoguo by her side, Ariel is also very content in other aspects.

    After Zheng Chunyun entered the door, he bowed respectfully to the three ladies and said, "Chang Nu has met the three ladies."

    Zheng Chunyun is Li Zuoguo's younger brother. Ariel, Xiaohuan and Xiaoyun didn't support each other and all bowed down in their chairs. Ariel said: "I said mother couldn't wait any longer, right? It didn't take long before I just brought her back."  , I need Chang Nu to come and take Xiaoxin away, even if I can¡¯t see him for a moment.¡±

    Xiaoyun smiled and didn't answer, Xiaohuan said with a smile: "That's right, the old lady holds this grandson in her mouth for fear of melting, and puts it on her head for fear of falling, but it hurts so much, why don't we all go to the old lady's house?  I'm going to interrupt the meal, so that Chang Nu won't have to make another trip to see Xiaoxin back."

    Ariel was the first to say good things, and Xiaoyun had a gentle temperament, so she naturally did not disagree. The three girls were about to go to the Wen family. Zheng Chunyun said at this time: "Chang Nu is here to take care of something, and there is another matter to discuss.  Let the three ladies talk."

    The three girls looked at Zheng Chunyun in confusion, and then sat down again. Listening to what Zheng Chunyun said, Zheng Chunyun did not ask the six maids who were serving the three girls to step back, and said that it was not a big deal.

    Zheng Chunyun's clear figure rang out: "Jiang Mingqing, the chief officer of the silver camp in the city, sent news today, saying that the rumors some time ago were a little more obvious. They were caused by several officials in Qiuci City, and there have been large groups of caravans in recent days.  As the guards enter the city, something is probably going to happen. General Li Yi outside the city has received the news and will send troops to the city tomorrow to take precautions."

    Zheng Chunyun glanced at Ariel, and seeing that Ariel didn't show any uneasiness, he continued: "The most important place in the city is here. Those who are determined to eat things inside and outside will also take action against the ladies in the house,  Only in this way will the old lady and Xiaoxin come, which will hit the young master the hardest, so after nightfall, ladies, please stay in your own courtyard and don't move around, and don't go out in the past few days. Once we catch all these people, everything will be fine."

    Zheng Chunyun paused, looked at Ariel and said, "Mrs. Ariel is pregnant. I'm afraid that one of them will be frightened. What I mean is that I will stay with the old lady when I go there. Yun  Madam and Madam Huan also live there. The old lady's place is big enough to live in, and it is also convenient for Changnu to protect. As for the personal soldiers, I have made arrangements. If something happens, they can arrive in thirty breaths.  "

    Ariel frowned and said, "There are thousands of soldiers on both sides of the Li Mansion, why are you still in such trouble?"

    Zheng Chunyun showed a smile on his face and said: "Mrs. Ariel, don't be nervous. Originally, two thousand soldiers were enough to protect the entire Li Mansion like an iron barrel. But if we don't lure all these people out, it will be a disaster in the future.  Song Neijing's purpose is to lure these ignorant guys into action, so that they can all be killed in one fell swoop. General Li Yi has already arranged for the army to enter the city at any time, but he was worried about Mrs. Ariel's pregnancy, so he asked Chang Nu to come and inquire. If Mrs. disagreed,  , then just use three times the number of personal soldiers to stand guard, directly destroy the minds of those fanatics, and let Yinying go check their background and clean them up."

    Ariel shook her head after hearing this and said: "I'm not a spoiled person. Let's use General Li's plan to lure out these thieves and catch them all to avoid causing trouble in the future. Even if they don't do anything, even if they find something  It¡¯s not easy to touch these people, anyway, with so many people protecting us, nothing will happen.¡±

    Zheng Chunyun nodded: "Okay, I will inform General Li Yi to do this. The ladies will stay at the old lady's house these days. Chang Nu guarantees that no one will disturb the ladies. Now the ladies will go  Let¡¯s go to the old lady, so that the old lady won¡¯t be anxious while waiting for her grandson. The old lady doesn¡¯t know about this, so please don¡¯t tell the truth.¡±

    Ariel nodded and said, "I saved it."

    ??Three ladies, Xiaoxin, and more than a dozen maids, a vast and powerful force.He then headed towards the courtyard where the Wen family lived. The Wen family's courtyard was in the northeast corner of the Duhu Mansion. Not far from the two-story wall was where one thousand of the two thousand soldiers were stationed, so there was no need to worry about anyone climbing over the wall.  Entering, the three-story mansion is the largest residence in the house. In addition, it also has a greenhouse, a water room and a kitchen. Everything is available. There are more than 20 rooms, which is enough to accommodate three women and one child, plus maids.  More than enough.

    The guards could not enter the backyard to protect the female family members. There were more than twenty female soldiers practicing martial arts in the backyard to take charge of security. The guards patrolled and stood guard in the outer courtyard. There were no oversights in the defense in normal times, but the Duhu Mansion occupied an area of ??nearly two square feet.  Hundred acres, if the ladies lived in their own courtyard, the twenty or so female guards would be scattered, so Zheng Chunyun suggested that the three ladies should stay in Wen's courtyard for easy protection.

    Mrs. Wen saw her grandson smiling happily, and hugged her grandson with a heartfelt cry, and kissed Xiaoxin again and again on Xiaoxin's tender face. Xiaoxin was also very sensible, and she called out affectionately as soon as they met: "Grandma."  Okay, Xiaoxin is here to see you."

    This is what Mr. Wen likes most about Xiao Xin. He is a small little person who has just learned to speak and has a sweet mouth. He is also very close to Mr. Wen. Although this grandson is not much different in age from his daughter, Mr. Wen prefers his grandson.  While talking, Wen's daughter Li Zuoguo's little sister Li Ru also ran in wearing a pink cotton jacket. The cute little girl was completely pink and had a snow-white face.  Jade-colored, big painted eyes that kept turning.

    Li Ru is a few months older than Xiao Xin, with less than a year difference, but at this time he is very strange. What Li Ru hates most is his little nephew. He feels that his little nephew has robbed his mother of his love.  , relying on being older than Xiaoxin, he bullied his nephew when the adults were not around, and the person he was afraid of was this little aunt. Seeing Li Ru appear, Xiaoxin shivered in Wen's arms.

    Wenshi glared at Li Ru, why didn't Wenshi know about the two children? It's just that Wenshi didn't care. Bullying for a little grown-up person is just a matter of pinching one's face. Wenshi said to the child in her arms: "Why?  Don¡¯t you say hello to your aunt when you see her?¡±

    Xiaoxin couldn't help it. He turned his little face and said quickly: "Hello, aunt." Then he turned his head and buried his face in Wen's arms and said that he would not show his head. The adults in the hall laughed. By this time, the food had been served.  Once they came up, the ladies arranged their seats and gathered around the table to start eating.

    Wen raised her chopsticks and said: "Chang Nu told me that Dalang will be back soon and will be able to stay until the Chinese New Year. Dalang has also been working hard for more than half a year. Our family is now fully supported by Dalang. In the blink of an eye, the old man  I've been gone for more than half a year." When Li Siye was mentioned, Wen's face became sad. Zheng Chunyun, who was standing behind him, also lowered his head. He couldn't see clearly what his face was. Wen had asked Zheng Chunyun to eat at the same table with her more than once. Zheng Chunyun was dead or alive.  He refused and was only willing to stand behind Mr. Wen and serve him. Mr. Wen had no choice but to let him go.

    The three daughters-in-law all stopped and looked at Mrs. Wen worriedly. They didn¡¯t know how to persuade them. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, they raised their little hands and grabbed a piece of chicken and put it towards Mr. Wen¡¯s mouth and said, "Grandma, why don¡¯t you eat it? Xiaoxin  Feed grandma meat."

    The innocent children's words immediately broke the dullness. Li Ru, who was sitting next to Wenshi, also grabbed a piece of vegetarian food seriously and raised it in front of Wenshi: "Mom eats Ru'er's food, not Xiaoxin's meat."

    Mrs. Wen looked at the pair of cute little children and burst into laughter. She lowered her head and ate their food, saying, "Okay, you guys are so good, let's eat."

    Then he raised his head and said to Ariel and the other girls: "It's my fault that you guys are eating. I always think about Dalang's father and ruin the atmosphere. I eat them all without using my chopsticks."

    Then the atmosphere on the table melted, and soon the clear children's voice made Mr. Wen laugh happily. The atmosphere became happier and happier, and the dullness at the beginning had been blown away by the liveliness of the next generation.  Only Zheng Chunyun, who was standing behind Wen, clenched his fists. Zheng Chunyun looked at the harmonious scene in front of him and thought of Li Siye. His heart felt like a snake biting him. His eyes revealed murderous intent. Who would dare to harm these people in front of him?  , Chang Nu will definitely kill them all.

    After dinner, night fell, and the entire Li Mansion turned on the lights. It was late at night, and the three girls, Ariel, who had agreed with Wen to live here, went to their rooms to rest after having a conversation with Wen.  Well, because Ariel has a child, she usually sleeps for a long time, so she goes to bed earlier every day.

    As the ladies rested, the small building also became quiet. Only the sound of the collision of armors patrolled by soldiers outside the far wall could be heard in the distance. It was already inaudible here, and the insects of summer and autumn also began to sing.  After singing, Zheng Chunyun slowly walked to the corridor outside the building under the cover of night, the murderous look on his face getting stronger and stronger.

    Zheng Chunyun raised his eyes and looked into the distance, took a deep breath, his face calmed down, he took a step back gently, and merged into the shadow cast by the pillars on the wall.It was as if a piece of water melted into another piece of water. No one could be seen where Zheng Chunyun disappeared. The moon gradually rose, and the clear light shone on the small building. Zheng Chunyun was still missing. He was waiting, waiting.  For those who can release the murderous intention in their hearts, the night becomes deeper.
