Chapter 379
The fourth elder brother is naturally happy to see that Hong Yun is such a broad-minded and friendly child.

He reached out and patted his son's shoulder before entering the house.

It was dark in the room.

Although it's already early spring, after all, it's late in the north and the weather is still cold.

But there was not even a hot pot in the house.

Hong Hui stood in the room with his head bowed, dressed neatly, as if he was about to go out at any time.

He is also taller now, standing in front of the fourth elder brother like a wall.

The fourth elder brother asked the servants to take the cloak and waited for Honghui to put it on. Then he looked at Honghui: "Life and death are important, manpower is limited. You look like this-if your mother knows, you will not feel at ease when you leave."

It was fine if he didn't say anything, but when he mentioned Ulanara, Honghui burst into tears again.

He came forward, knelt down abruptly, stretched out his arms and hugged his father's thigh as he did when he was a child, and whimpered, "Ama, Ama, my son misses my mother..."

The fourth elder brother covered his son's head with one hand, and patted his shoulder with the other comfortingly and encouragingly: "Honghui, you have to cheer up."

Honghui didn't listen at all, sobbing and crying very sadly.

Su Peisheng was next to him, rolling his two radiant eyes, looking at brother Honghui for a while, and then at the prince for a while.

Persuasion is not persuasion.

He had already chosen his path firmly.

The fourth elder brother comforted for a while, seeing Hong Hui crying in a weak state, and thinking of Hong Yun's energetic appearance, compared with the two, he couldn't help feeling disappointed.

"Okay, don't cry, isn't there still Amma here?"

The fourth elder brother had a bit of patience in his voice, Hong Hui would definitely be able to hear it if it was different from usual, but at this moment he missed his dead mother and cried very sadly, so he couldn't care less for a while.

Looking bad, Su Peisheng stepped forward slowly to help Honghui up, persuaded him to sit down with a soft voice.

Really don't cry anymore - the prince doesn't have much affection for the princess.

If you continue crying like this, you should make the prince impatient.

In fact, if elder brother Honghui had a little more open mind, he should have understood by now - the family of Princess Xi is already the only one in the mansion.

Others are a family that loves each other, and brothers and sisters should unite inside and outside.

His only seedling's road to the future...is difficult.

……

Coming out of Honghui's room, the fourth elder brother intended to encourage him, but thinking of his son crying and crying just now, with a weak look, the fourth elder brother stopped on the steps, shook his head imperceptibly, and sighed. With a sigh, he turned and went back to the study.

After the prince left, Fu Lei came out from the back of the room, walked up to Hong Hui, and supported him: "Your servant fetched a basin of water for Second Elder Brother, wipe your face?"

At this time, Honghui calmed down a little.

He raised his head slightly, and looked at the clear night sky along the window pane - the sky was still the same, but it was impossible to even listen to Er Niang's reprimand as before.

He nodded, raised his hand and wiped away his tears with his sleeve.

After all, she often waits on people, Fu Lei's movements are very nimble, and she asked the little girl to bring in the washing water in a short while.

She took the copper basin with her own hands, put a soft towel on the edge of the basin, and walked over step by step.

Hong Hui stood up suddenly, turned around and went into the room, Fu Lei hesitated for a moment, then saw Hong Hui turn her head and look at her.

This is what it means to let her come into the house to serve.

Holding the basin in her hand, Fu Lei followed without looking sideways.

After all, among the women who served her, she was considered the most ignorant, and even the eunuch next to brother Honghui had to put on a smile when he saw her in the open.

When they got to the room, Fu Lei watched Brother Honghui take out another piece of paper from the interlayer of the desk, and looked at the light for a while.

His face was wet with tears, and he was in a daze while watching.

Fu Lei thought for a while, put the washbasin on the shelf at the side first, then went over and knelt at Honghui's elder brother's feet: "I will serve you."

She gently held one of Hong Hui's feet, took off his boot lightly, then hugged the foot in her arms, and kneaded his forehead gently.

"Er Niang is kind, although she has great expectations for me, she finally complied with my temperament..."

As Hong Hui spoke, he raised his sleeves and wiped away his tears.

Fu Lei knelt on the ground, quickly followed his words and said: "Second elder brother is very right! I am lucky to have served a few times in front of the princess—a kind and benevolent master like the princess, don't say In this mansion, even in the palace, there is no second one."

Hong Hui felt uncomfortable, so he stretched out his hand and said to Fu Lei, "Come on!"

This is just a woman whose status couldn't be lower, and he doesn't dote on Fu Lei, it's just that... at such a lonely and sad time, there is someone beside her who can comfort her softly.

It's always better than being alone in the cold night.

Fu Lei got up and moved over, her body was as soft as a willow.

She nestled close to Honghui's chest, and put her arms around the boy's waist: "Second Elder Brother, I will accompany you."

Hong Hui reached out and untied the jade pendant he carried with him as a reward.

This jade pendant is of first-class quality.

Although Fu Lei came from a low family background, she has been in the palace for a while, spending all day in this rich and beautiful township, and has seen a lot of good things. Holding the jade pendant in her hands at this time, she already knows its extraordinary value.

She couldn't help being overjoyed, knelt down and kowtowed again: "Second elder brother can hear a few words from the slave, don't mourn and hurt yourself - it's the great fortune of the slave!"

When she was happy, Fu Lei was overjoyed, and casually talked about the series of actions that the princess had taken to get rid of Hong Yun—in fact, apart from the encounter with brother Hongyun in the garden, the princess had also arranged many other plans.

However, Brother Hongyu is very cautious, and the people around him are also quite defensive.

So I have never looked for a gap to start.

Hong Hui's expression slowly sank when he heard this.

He waved his hand and said to Fu Lei: "I'm not happy to hear this, and I don't allow you to make troubles like this! If I find out, I will definitely punish you severely!"

There was an awkward smile on Fu Lei's face, knowing that she was talking too much.

She hastened to claim yes, and before brother Honghui got angry, she stood up holding the washbasin, and went out in despair.

After going out, she lowered her head and glanced at the washbasin in her hand, and then she thought—hey!I haven't waited for the second brother to wash his face yet.

In the room, Hong Hui reached out to take the milk tea from Hong Yun on the small table, and drank it in big gulps.

Hei Bobo and taro ball Bobo were added to the milk tea, as well as sweet-scented osmanthus jelly, which comforted his hungry stomach.

……

Early the next morning, Honghui suddenly had a stomachache.

The pain didn't come in bursts, but overwhelming—the pain made Honghui groan while holding his belly on the bed.

Fu Lei was sleeping under the bed, when she heard the movement, Chi Liu got up and sent someone to call the doctor, and helped the second elder brother for convenience.
