Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 213
The spring is warm and the flowers are chaotic, and there are paper kites in the distance.

Seeing Xiao Ruochen lying on the couch, lifting the curtain curiously, looking into the street with his head poking around, joy hidden in his big black and white eyes, Xiao Yu's heart relaxed, and he sighed secretly.

Since this period of time, to be exact, since that day when Xie Changan was out of danger, Xiao Ruochen has been different from the past, he is indescribably young and mature, and only plays around in front of Xie Changan as lively as usual. He didn't want to worry Xie Chang'an.Xiao Yu knew that Xiao Ruochen would grow up overnight, so he was frightened, but there was nothing he could do.

It's contradictory, Xiao Yu hoped that Xiao Ruochen would be sensible and considerate, but he didn't want Xiao Ruochen to be too mature, after all, he was a child, and he should have a childish heart, so he wasted his innocence when he was young.

"Chen'er, when your mother recovers, I will bring you to the street with your mother." Xiao Yu moved to go to Xiao Ruochen's place, carefully protecting Xiao Ruochen's shaking body due to the bumping of the carriage, and glanced over from the corner of his eye. Shops, I saw many shops hanging red lanterns, and I was overjoyed, "It's the Lantern Festival, don't blame the street for being busy."

Xiao Ruochen withdrew his head reluctantly, sat down solemnly, nodded and said: "Okay, a man is a man!"

It was rare for Xiao Yu not to make fun of Xiao Ruochen, stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiao Ruochen's head, and said gently but seriously: "Chen'er, now that you have your father, don't worry, do what you have to do, and don't let go of what you have to play, wait for you to grow up I will replace your father when I grow up, you know?"

Xiao Ruochen seemed to understand, but distrust was evident in his clear eyes, and he stared at Xiao Yu with a complicated expression, as if he was asking Xiao Yu, are you really trustworthy?What happened to the previous encounter?

"You!" Stretching out his hand to look at Xiao Ruochen's head, Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Don't worry, your mother will be fine with your father here, and your sister, our family is neat and tidy, who knows? It can’t be destroyed either.”

Xiao Ruochen reluctantly believed Xiao Yu's words, squeezed his small fists and reached out to Xiao Yu, showing the air of a little man, didn't speak, just looked at Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu smiled, clenched his fist and touched Xiao Ruochen's small fist, then opened his hand and wrapped Xiao Ruochen's hand in the palm of his hand. gone."

"My lord, young master, the Marquis of Rong An has arrived."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu let go, patted Xiao Ruochen's small shoulders lightly twice, and said with a smile: "Okay, get out of the carriage, your great-grandmother is getting old, don't make trouble with her for a while."

Because Marquis Rong An was not in the mansion without prior notice, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Ping went to Qingshan Temple to offer incense. Only Xiao Yuan was there but was entangled in business, so he couldn't go to the room for a while.

The sun was warm, and the old lady Xie was full of energy. Wrapped in a jacket, she was basking in the sun in the yard, her expression was relaxed, her eyes seemed to be closed, she was not as fierce as before, she was just like an ordinary old lady who has taken care of her life.

Xiao Yu saluted with a smile: "Grandmother, I brought Chen'er to see you." Turning around, he greeted Xiao Ruochen who was striding forward with short legs, "Come on, meet your great-grandmother soon."

Xiao Ruochen gasped and stood still, smiling happily, with innocence in his big eyes, he saluted politely, and said in a clear and soft voice: "Grandmother is good, Chen'er greets Grandmother!"

"Okay, good boy, come to grandma." Mrs. Xie laughed so hard that she lost her eyes, her brows and eyes were filled with kindness, she stretched out her hand to embrace Xiao Ruochen, leaned closer to have a closer look, and then stretched out her hand to pinch Xiao Ruochen's body before she said with a smile : "Okay, he looks handsome, and his body is also good. He is indeed my grandson!"

Xiao Yu smiled, glanced at the well-behaved Xiao Ruochen, deliberately dismantled the stage and said: "Grandmother, don't praise him, you should be so happy that you can't find him later." Then he took out the painting and handed it to Old Madam Xie, "Grandmother, The portrait of grandfather is finished, just take a look, if there is anything wrong, I will do it again."

Xiao Ruochen hurriedly took a few steps back, so as not to hinder Mrs. Xie from looking at the painting, and out of curiosity, she walked around to look at the painting, only to see a man riding a galloping horse on the painting, the man looks very good Yes, but very... The young Xiao Ruochen couldn't find the right words to describe it, it just made him fearful and couldn't help but take a step back.

Mrs. Xie noticed it, and turned her head to look at Xiao Ruochen, who had a serious face and unconsciously clenched his fists. There was nostalgia in his cloudy eyes, and a vicissitudes of life voice comforted him: "Chen'er, don't be afraid, this is your great-grandfather, come here. , Chen'er came to see your great-grandfather."

Xiao Ruochen was startled, there was a sense of respect in his eyes that he didn't understand, and he looked at the portrait solemnly with big eyes, before kneeling respectfully and kowtowing to the painting, "Chen'er has seen my great-grandfather." After getting up, His eyes still fell on the painting, as if he was talking to himself, "Grandfather looks amazing, and Chen'er is also amazing."

Seeing this, Xiao Yu knew that Mrs. Xie had approved the painting, she felt relieved and was also happy, she took Xiao Ruochen's words and said: "Your great-grandfather is not only amazing at looking at it."

Xiao Ruochen nodded, and said unexpectedly, "Looking from left to right, you are better than Dad."

I don't know if Xiao Ruochen deliberately let himself be embarrassed, but Xiao Yu was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "That's natural, ten fathers can't compare with your grandfather."

The old lady Xie looked at the painting carefully again. The old lady Xie, who is dying, and the old lady Xie who is so strong, has tenderness in her eyes, and a charming smile hidden in the wrinkles that have gone through vicissitudes of life, as if the love of a concubine is still there yesterday , the deflated mouth opened and closed, and the words were infinitely gentle, "Old man, wait a little longer, I will find you soon."

Xiao Yu's eyes sank, his thoughts were mixed, he was worried that Mrs. Xie would lose her mind, and wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know how to persuade her, but in case... how could Xie Chang'an accept it.Xiao Yu was anxious, and from the corner of her eye, she accidentally saw the ignorant Xiao Ruochen, and hurriedly embraced Xiao Ruochen and said, "Grandmother, Chen'er said yesterday that he wants to see grandma, you will pay off your life for a hundred years!"

Xiao Ruochen is also smart, even if he didn't see Xiao Yu's eyes, he hurriedly took the old lady Xie's hand, and said coquettishly: "Grandmother must live a long life, wait for Chen'er to grow up, and Chen'er will let you Great-grandmother sees that Chen'er is as good as my great-grandfather!" Although he still doesn't know how powerful his great-great-grandfather is.

Knowing that Xiao Yu and Xiao Ruochen were sincere, the old lady Xie cheerfully accepted the two's kindness, and ordered Li's mother to take the painting and frame it together with her own painting, then took Xiao Ruochen's hand, and looked at Xiao Ruochen. Yu deliberately said behind his back: "Chen'er, tell your grandmother, how is your mother these few days?"

Xiao Yu, who could vaguely hear it, couldn't laugh or cry, sipping tea on his own, waiting for Xiao Ruochen's next words.

Xiao Ruochen glanced at Xiao Yu triumphantly, as if showing off, then looked at the old lady Xie with a smile, and assured him: "Don't worry, Grandmother, my mother is fine, but the doctor said that she has to rest for a while. "

Xiao Yu, who put down the teacup, added, "Chang'an always wanted to see you. It's really inappropriate to sit on the confinement right now, but he really thought about it, so he sent me and Chen'er here to stay out of confinement. , Chang'an will bring Yuan'er to see you."

The old lady Xie nodded, "This girl, I worry about it all day long, and I'm not afraid that I will become an old lady at half a year old. You go back and tell her that my old bones are fine, so she can give birth to a healthy body. I'll just wait." She brought Yuan'er." Afraid that Xiao Yu would scare her, he asked Xiao Ruochen, "Is your sister happy?"

At this age, it goes without saying that Mrs. Xie is also a half-hearted person. The time when Xie Changan gave birth to Xiao Ruoying was clearly brought forward. I wonder if something happened. If so, the bodies of mother and daughter will probably be worse than It is usually weak, but it is better to give birth.

In line with the principle of reporting good news but not worrying, Xiao Ruochen said without blinking: "My sister laughs and giggles on weekdays, and her little hands and feet are also energetic." Xiao Ruochen nodded, "I've looked a lot better these days, but I don't really look like her. Mother." The words were rather regretful, as if they disliked Xiao Yu for not being attractive enough.

Xiao Yu smiled helplessly, just pretended not to hear it, and sipped the tea on his own, with the fragrance on his lips and teeth, and he finally felt a little more at ease.

The old lady Xie raised her hand and poked Xiao Ruochen's head fondly, "You, you look just like your father at a young age, you can't tell the truth, but seeing me as an old bone is easy to deceive?"

Xiao Ruochen looked innocent, and was about to explain that he was not talking nonsense, but he heard a high-spirited voice, "Grandmother, Prince An, Chen'er, I'm the one who was late!"

Xiao Yu hurriedly got up, the two met Li, Xiao Yu looked at Xie Bin, who was full of spring eyes, with a smile, and said with a smile: "I think a good thing is coming, so Xiao Yu will congratulate elder brother in advance!"

Xie Bin was not shy either, and said straightforwardly: "The date is to be fixed, and I will go to the house to notify you, then don't let my pigeons go!" Seeing the small Xiao Ruochen, he smiled loudly, leaned over and picked him up, He poked his little face, "And you, and the little niece who hasn't met yet, all came to make fun for uncle and me."

The old lady Xie scolded with a smile, "You really are not ashamed!"

Seeing the joy on Mrs. Xie's face, Xie Bin smiled, and said seriously: "Grandmother, grandson, don't you want to give you a granddaughter-in-law to honor you, so that you can hug your great-grandson as soon as possible!" Yu winked at herself indiscriminately, and immediately understood, "Chen'er, there is something interesting in Uncle's house, I'll take you to have a look."

After the two left, Xiao Ruochen went to the old lady Xie, "Grandmother, I have a few words to tell you." After that, he leaned over and listened to his ears, and spoke for a long while in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them.

Old Madam Xie's cloudy eyes were dim, and she said after a long time: "As long as you live up to Chang'an, you can do whatever you want."

Xiao Yu nodded, "Grandmother, don't worry, I, Xiao Yu, will only be in Chang'an in this life. After this matter, Chang'an and I will go south, and we will no longer mix right and wrong... Because I am afraid that you will be in a hurry, I will talk to grandma today first." Said."
