Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 17 Love (5)

Xiao Yi closed the book angrily, and when she looked up, she saw a package falling out of the closet, so she took the initiative to help pick it up.

In the nose, there was a familiar smell...

Qin Mei thanked her, took it from her hand, put it back in the cabinet, and explained with a smile: "Brother Mo likes plum blossoms, so I collect some dried flowers every winter and smoke his clothes."

"Every year... have you known each other for many years?"

"It's been almost seven years. Brother Mo lived in my house when he first entered the capital."

Xiao Yi held a glimmer of hope: "What kind of relationship do you have with him?"

"We are not relatives. Back then, when Big Brother Mo was in trouble, my father couldn't see it, so he helped him. That's how we met. After all, my father is half of his teacher, so if we must talk about the relationship, I can Be his half junior sister."

"Then... is your father going out today?"

"Father passed away five years ago."

"……sorry."

"It's okay. I have been taking care of you all these years, and I am doing well. Daddy's spirit in heaven must also be gratified."

Qin Mei's words were light and her smile was shallow, but she was obviously content and happy.

Xiao Yi was silent for a while, and then said: "Little master has never mentioned you in front of me, and I didn't even know you existed before, that's why I asked so abruptly, don't be angry."

"Those who don't know are not to be blamed!" Qin Mei handed her the clothes, her voice was soft: "Besides, it's not right to talk about the shallowness, otherwise, wouldn't it be impolite?"

Xiao Yi died in depression.

The relationship was shallow, and after a long time, the relationship between himself and Mo Yanxiao was just a word of "shallow".

That's right, he and Qin Mei really have a deep friendship, they are brothers and sisters, and they depend on each other, and her father is also his benefactor.

Also, there is a 'plum' in her name, so he likes plum blossoms...

Well, now I finally want to understand why I was struggling with a word just now.

After changing his clothes, Mo Yanxiao brought out two bowls of ginger soup from the kitchen, and saw Xiao Yi running out with a sullen face, still wearing a half-dry dress, and couldn't help wondering: "What's the matter, Xiao Yi, Xiaomei's clothes don't fit well?" ?"

Xiaomei...

It's so affectionate, why don't you call me Xiaoyi...or Yiyi...or Ayi...

Xiao Yi is irritable, and it's all her father's fault. What kind of bad name did she choose?Flip the table!
"I want to go back!"

Mo Yanxiao looked at Qin Mei who followed behind with a delicate expression, and then at Xiao Yi who was furious: "Why?"

"No reason, I just want to go back, right now!"

"In this case..." Mo Yanxiao didn't ask any more questions, and put the bowl on the window sill: "I'll find you a carriage."

"I want you to go back with me!"

"reason?"

Xiao Yi was very impatient, her voice was loud and her tone was very hard: "There is no reason!"

Her attitude finally aroused Mo Yanxiao's displeasure, and he coldly said, "I'm sorry, my duty time today is over."

Xiao Yi glared at him angrily for a while, then stomped her feet and rushed out of the door, and the two wooden door panels were thrown to the ground...

Seeing this, Qin Mei sighed, and walked over: "You still want to chase?"

Mo Yanxiao looked outside the door where no one was there long ago, and his anger still persisted: "I can't catch up!"

"After all, she is a little girl, I'm afraid the road will be unsafe."

"Don't worry, it's good if she doesn't bully others!"

Qin Mei looked at Mo Yanxiao's frowned brows and the corners of her lips that were tightly pursed, and shook her head lightly: "Probably some of my words made her unhappy. In any case, if I didn't entertain the guests well, it's always me doing this." It's not the master's fault. I'll find an opportunity another day, and I'll apologize to her face to face. I'm sorry, Brother Mo, for making it difficult for you."

"It's none of your business." Mo Yanxiao retracted his gaze, lowered his eyelashes, raised them again after a while, and forced a smile: "She's just... Missy just lost her temper again."

Mo Yanxiao didn't chase him out, so he didn't know. Xiao Yi squatted in the corner of his house and made mushrooms for more than two hours until sunset.

And Xiao Yi didn't know that that night, Mo Yanxiao had been standing outside Duke Ding's mansion, watching her walk out like a crowd of stars, wearing brand-new dresses and smiling happily, before leaving with peace of mind. go.

At that time, the night was dark and the autumn wind was cool.
