She didn't say anything more. Peilin also woke up. She walked to the bed, picked up the child and dressed her.
The old woman took Yin Xiao's money and graciously sent them two bowls of porridge and a stack of side dishes to fill their bellies.
"I don't have much money left. I only gave her two ingots of silver just now. She stayed with us at night and cooked us food. It shows that she is a warm-hearted and good family. You can ask someone to send you some more money later."
Yin Xiao dressed the child and took her down to the ground for two steps.
Wei Cheng came over to take the child, with a subtle joy in his heart, and secretly glanced at her: "I know."
Already summoned him.
He looked down at the porridge and side dishes on the table with a smile in his eyes, and frowned.
I gave him two ingots of silver and asked him to send people to send money, but in the end, he gave this stuff to his people.
He is not a person who takes advantage of others. He always spends every penny. Every inch of silver he gives out will always be exchanged for something of equal value.
But forget it today, who knew he had already promised her.
He sat down with the child in his arms, and Yin Xiao sat in front of him with a calm expression and served them father and daughter.
She took a piece of tender tofu that was easy to melt, put it into a bowl, mashed it, put it into Wei Cheng's bowl and asked him to feed it to the child. Wei Cheng was extra patient today, and the child was moving around in his arms and kicking its legs. He stretched out his hand and chatted without feeling any noise, and fed the mashed tofu into her little mouth with chopsticks.
"I'll feed her. You eat first. You didn't sleep well last night."
He grabbed the child's hand and pressed it on his leg calmly: "No, you eat first, and I will give the child to you after you finish."
After speaking, he picked up the porridge and took a big sip.
Then he scooped a small spoonful of gruel into the child's mouth.
Yin Xiao saw it with mixed emotions. Over the past year, thanks to Wei Cheng taking time out of his busy schedule to take care of the children, this was already the best result.
Originally, she was worried that he would leave the child in another courtyard and ignore it, or leave it to his wife, Mrs.
After a while, the child's mouth was full of oil, and her face was uncomfortable with porridge, soup and vegetable oil. She was looking for something to rub it on. He casually took the diaper he had changed last night and wiped the corners of her mouth. .
Yin Xiao stared blankly.
"Too dirty!" She scolded with a stern face, frowned and took the child over, and quickly took the child to the basin to wash his face.
How could he wipe her child's face with that thing!
Peilin didn't know what happened yet, her chubby face bulged, and she let her mother wash her face carefully with a wet handkerchief, and looked at the woman washing her face with wide eyes.
During the second half of the brunch, she didn't look good, so he didn't dare to say anything and only glanced at her after taking a bite.
"Miss Xie..."
He was about to pick up the food with his hand.
She thought about it, but couldn't help but remind him: "She is also a poor person who can't help herself. I hope you won't hurt her for me. Before there is a suitable way to deal with it, if she is abandoned and sent home at will, she will be in trouble in the future." Life at home is not easy, and I will not live a stable life."
"I know." He nodded, put down his chopsticks, and sat upright: "I am going to make peace with her. In addition to the dowry she brought, I will also send it back with a sum of money, and tell the Xie family that as long as she stays with the Xie family, I will also take good care of the Xie family in the future. They will assess the situation and naturally they will not have any objections to her."
She nodded. The best way was of course not to divorce her. After all, she was a young lady from a wealthy family. Since she had not committed any of the seven sins, there was no reason to divorce her.
"Don't worry." He held her hand across the table, his eyes blazing: "Wait for me in Chang'an, and wait for me to marry you."
She whispered "Yeah" and lowered her head to see if the rice porridge in the child's mouth was finished.
On this day, his body and heart were greatly satisfied.
This time she was not being conceited to him, he knew it very well.
Even though they couldn't get to the end last night, the two of them were still close friends.
The bud of the orchid bloomed under his lips and tongue, revealing its delicate stamens. Just thinking about it made him feel anxious again.
The woman in front of him looked at the child with a gentle smile, and he looked at the lost and recovered beauty with enjoyment.
There was a kind of serenity and tranquility about her that he couldn't ask for, like a small boat in a violent storm. Sometimes, she could chew out some of the calmness of her unmoving nature when the storm was about to come, which invisibly comforted him. and strength.
The most soft in the world is the strongest in the world.
"Then what are you going to do?" She suddenly thought of her mother. People in Chang'an were now in panic, the emperor had no time to take care of himself, and many aristocratic families were preparing to go south to avoid disaster.
"I heard that you massacred many aristocratic families, do you want to attack the Wang family too? And Wang Yuanjun, I remember..." She paused, "I remember that she seems to have been in Youzhou, but before I came here, She has returned to Chang'an."
The smile on his face remained unchanged: "The Wang family is your natal family. How could I touch my in-laws? Your parents are my parents. You have not been around them to fulfill your filial piety these years."
"When we get married, they can also come to our wedding ceremony and send you off to get married. From now on, I will be filial to my mother-in-law with you."
He simply didn't look like him now.
"As for Wang Yuanjun." He twitched the corners of his lips and said nonchalantly: "My subordinates have not been able to supervise her well these days and let her run away. It doesn't matter. Just come back and don't worry about her."
Of course he sent Wang Yuanjun there.
Without his approval, how could she leave Youzhou even half a step?
Sending her there was to let her take a good look at the Wang family. Once Shen Yinxiao recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, he would get the news immediately.
Naturally, this chess piece is no longer needed. If you lose it, just throw it away. Being locked up in Youzhou will also waste food.
"That's it." She nodded.
Wang Yuanjun is considered her cousin. He is willing to let her cousin go. In the future, he should also show some kindness to his mother and the entire family.
Peilin still wanted to stay with him. Considering her children, she advised: "In that case, let's stop here. It is not easy to be an enemy of a noble family. Dong Yan is a lesson learned..."
"I just want you all to be safe. I don't want to be powerful. Just be ordinary. Even if you are just an idle rich man, it is better than being on guard against open and covert attacks all day long."
The beauty was most pitiful when she looked sad. He stood up, sat over and took her into his arms.
She is a woman, soft-hearted, and afraid of trouble. It is not her problem. He lets some people go, and some people don't let him go. If he has soldiers and land, those people in Chang'an will not stop thinking about him, his women and children. On the body.
True peace is the result of struggle, and it cannot be bought by blind forbearance.
The chicken soup was ready, and the old Orion came back without knowing what happened. When he saw the two people coming out, the old woman went into the kitchen to serve the dishes, and the old Orion smiled and invited them to sit down.
The chicken soup with red dates and shiitake mushrooms was simmered until it was soft and tender, with bright yellow chicken fat floating on the soup. The old hunter urged them to drink it quickly.
"It won't taste good when it's cold."
Yin Xiao picked up the chicken soup and put it to her lips. She couldn't help but glance at him. He still looked careless no matter who was talking to him. He was casual and inexplicably made people feel that he was also listening.
Seeing her looking at him, he picked up the soup and took a sip.
"Yeah, it tastes good."
Orion laughed.
Yinxiao also drank the soup.
At noon, when no one came, Wei Cheng accompanied Yin Xiao back to the house to take a nap.
She yawned and raised her head to let him go out to see if Wei Ning and the others were here.
The man stretched out his index finger to press her lips and whispered: "Shh——"
She followed his gaze and saw a figure outside the door.
She closed her eyes and lay down to sleep.
The man stopped his footsteps and walked behind the door.
The old hunter knocked on the door first, but when no one answered for a long time, he opened the door confidently and boldly. He saw the woman and child lying on the bed. His eyes were fierce, he gritted his teeth, grabbed the ax in his hand, and walked towards her. .
He walked to the bed step by step, held on, raised the ax high, and struck the child and the woman with the ax fiercely with a ferocious expression.
