Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

When I came out of Father Shen's study, more than half an hour had passed.

There were two in the yard, looking like they had been waiting for a long time.Jifeng was lying on the stone table, one hand hesitantly moving towards a plate of snacks, advancing three points and retreating two points.He didn't know when the girl would come out. He was not hungry, but the snack was so fragrant that his attention couldn't help but go in that direction. During this hesitation, he was afraid that he would advance too much and retreat too little before the girl came out. He reached for the snack, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped back a little.

"Hey..." He sighed like a young man, shaking his head while sighing, "This girl really has no sense of time... Jifeng will have to talk about her carefully later..."

As he said that, he turned his head and saw Ji Wuyan coming down the stairs. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped three feet in the air and rushed over, "Girl, girl! Have you finally agreed on things? Are you hungry?" Come on, let’s have some snacks! It’s still warm!”

Like offering a treasure.

Shen Luoxin twitched the corner of her mouth, where is this child, who promised to "talk about her well"?

This kid is the one who dares to nag behind his back, but in front of his face, if Ji Wuyan accuses a deer of being a horse, this kid will just tell everyone unswervingly that this is a horse!deer?How could there be deer in this world?They are all horses, they are all horses!
Shen Luoxin looked at her father who came out behind Ji Wuyan, looked away as if nothing had happened, and waved to Ji Wuyan, "Come on. I've been waiting for you for a long time... I've been looking at you for so long, and said He refuses to eat anything and won't let me eat, insisting on waiting for you to come out... If you don't come out, he will sit like a stone."

Look at the girl's stone...

The force of the child's attack was a bit strong, and Ji Wuyan subconsciously took half a step back before stopping his feet.She led Jifeng into the courtyard. After taking two steps, she remembered that there was someone behind her. She turned around and greeted, "Mr. Shen, can we use some together?"

Father Shen shook his head, "No, I have some things to leave. You can do whatever you want... just treat it as your own home." After saying that, he took two steps forward and touched Jifeng's head. There was a slight pause in his steps, and he looked at Xiang Shen Luoxin hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Take care of your friends."

After that, he nodded slightly with a bit of embarrassment, then walked away quickly.When I returned home just now, I saw the Ji family's carriage at the door. I asked a few words unexpectedly, and then I realized that Luo Xin was also here, so I postponed the meeting with my colleagues. So there was nothing else to do today, but... ...I just don’t know how to get along with my daughter.

In addition, he said so many things in the study just now, and he almost never confessed his heart to the heart. Even now, he didn't know how to face Ji Wuyan, a "junior", so as not to let others notice. It's strange--it's obviously a child who is as old as his own girl, but when he talks to her, he seems to be talking to his peers, and even has the air of being in a superior position for a long time, which makes people not be contemptuous and negligent.

After leaving the yard, Father Shen stood outside the door for a while, listening to the boy shouting about how delicious it was, and the girl's chuckles and whispers.As the warm autumn sun enveloped him, Father Shen looked up at the cloudless blue sky with squinted eyes, and smiled suddenly... Once upon a time, he was still young, with the passion and ambition of a young man.He stood in front of the newly purchased house, holding Xu Siniang's hand with one hand and stroking the fetus in her belly with the other. He imagined that one day, after seeing enough of the scenery from high places, he would rest and enjoy the surroundings of his children and grandchildren. hapiness.

It was probably at this moment that the silence between the walls was so good.

It's just... I haven't seen the scenery from the high place yet, and the happiness that wraps around my knees here... is probably no longer available.

...The silent wind beats the little ones and makes them familiar.

Especially when a girl is around, he can treat any place as his own home. He ate like this for most of an hour in the courtyard of the censor doctor. If he couldn't find a servant to serve him, he would probably You can also ask someone to bring two plates over and continue eating.

Finally, he rubbed his belly and left with a satisfied look on his face. As he got on the carriage, he was still sighing to himself, "The second young lady is a bit fierce, but Uncle Shen is still very good..."

The one who called him early in the morning was Mr. Shen, and now he went on his own to call Uncle Shen.Typically, a woman with breasts is a mother.

Halfway through, the children saw another vendor selling candied haws on the street, and stopped the carriage to buy a large handful of candied haws.

When I came back, I saw the carriage of Duke Ningguo at the door. The concierge said that the third master had been here for a while.Ning Xiuyuan knew that there was a banquet hosted by Shen Lewei today. He probably arrived based on the right time, but he didn't expect to be delayed at Father Shen's place... which made him wait for a long time.

Ji Wuyan seemed to have never seen Shen Luoxin hesitate to speak. He just took a candied haws from Jifeng's hand and walked slowly to his yard. As expected, he saw Ning Xiuyuan. Sitting with his back to the courtyard gate, Xi Yu stood guard at the side. When he saw Ji Wuyan was about to salute, but was stopped by Ji Wuyan, he understood and bent slightly to ask for permission, "Master, please go and make some more." A pot of tea?"

Ning Xiuyuan didn't think anything of it and nodded in agreement, "Go ahead."

Xi Yu calmly stepped back and walked to the door. When he passed by, he bowed slightly to Ji Wuyan and saluted, pursed his lips and snickered. After walking dozens of steps, he saw Zi Qiu who was about to pass by and pulled him away. .

Ginkgo trees were planted in the courtyard, and the golden leaves were really beautiful. The autumn wind blew, and the fallen leaves fluttered, falling swayingly on the man's jade crown. He didn't seem to notice it, and he just rested his chin and played chess by himself.Ji Wuyan slowed down his pace, and when he came closer, he noticed it, but did not raise his head. He just stared at the chessboard in front of him and ordered, "Zi Qiu, go to the door and wait for your girl... This concubine of the Shen family... Women, we don’t have much friendship, but your girl is too happy to miss Shu."

His soft words and elegant and calm posture make him feel like the male host here.

Ji Wuyan pursed his lips and chuckled, but didn't answer. Ning Xiuyuan didn't rush him. He just listened to the footsteps getting closer, then said "huh?" and looked up. He hadn't seen the person yet, but he saw the person being handed over first. The red candied haws, Ning Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes opened slightly and then bent down. The sun shone in the dark pupils, and the fine light and shadow were dimmed, making them as beautiful as the most precious amber.He stretched out his hand towards Ji Wuyan, but his fingertips crossed the string and held the other's wrist, and he pulled him forward and asked, "Are you willing to come back?"

Thinking of the way Ning Xiuyuan was complaining with his back to him just now, Ji Wuyan pursed his lips and chuckled, a bit slyly, "I have a sweet husband at home who won't want to come home late."
