Huang's courtyard, inside the house.
Huang looked at Zhao Mengqi carefully and murmured, "Silang, you have changed a lot. Although you are still so thin, you have grown taller, your eyes are brighter, and you are no longer as dull as before. It seems that you have entered." The palace is much better, but that girl Jian Niang is always saying that you are stupid, and I see you, isn't that great?"
Zhao Han could still see Zhao Mengqi once every few years, but Huang had not seen him since he entered the palace. Any changes that happened to her son were taken for granted by her.
Zhao Mengqi put his head on Huang's lap, immersed in the family affection at this moment, "No matter whether my son is stupid or not, he will always be your son."
Huang rubbed his hair and suddenly touched a scar, and couldn't help but feel heartache, "Silang, I heard that a while ago, the official accidentally knocked you unconscious, but it frightened my mother, and she had nightmares all night long, and... Fortunately, you're fine, otherwise...does it still hurt now?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore. It's actually not as serious as the rumors. My son is actually fine. He just wanted to be lazy, so he slept for a few more days."
"You, please stop comforting me. I'm not a village woman who really doesn't understand anything. The palace is a hundred times more complicated than the palace. It's also a pain for you. If possible, mother really misses you. He's just a child from an ordinary family. In this case, he doesn't have to suffer so much before he's even born..."
Zhao Mengqi raised his head and looked at his mother seriously, "Mother, your son has grown up now. You don't have to worry about it anymore. No one in this world can bully me anymore, not only you and Yan Niang, but your son will never be bullied again." If you let others bully you, your son will earn back what belongs to you from now on!"
"Okay, okay, I believe in Shiro for my mother..." Huang cried with joy, and then thought that she shouldn't shed so many tears in front of her son, so she hurriedly took out a handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and wiped her face.
At this time, the sharp-eyed Zhao Mengqi noticed something was wrong. He opened Huang's sleeves and took a closer look. He saw that the sleeves of her inner garment were full of patches and the cuffs were frayed. It was obviously an extremely old dress. .
From the very beginning, Zhao Mengqi saw that Huang's clothes were not gorgeous and not worthy of her status as a concubine of the King of Honor, but they were not bad and were similar to those of ordinary rich people, so he didn't pay much attention to them.
But the discovery at this moment woke him up, and when he thought about Zhao Han's state, his face immediately darkened.
He stood up and began to slowly look at the furnishings and utensils in the room. The more he looked, the more angry he felt in his heart.
Zhao Han is very satisfied now. She has returned to the familiar courtyard. Her mother and brother are there, and there are many cute pets. She feels that there is nothing happier than this in the world.
She hugged the lion cat and teased the parrot in the cage, "Fourth brother said you can talk, so hurry up and call me little lady and I'll listen... Come on, why don't you say it? Fourth brother won't lie to me. , he said you can speak, you definitely can! Speak quickly, if you don’t speak, I will, I won’t give you food.”
The dog was also released from the cage. It was a half-year-old black thin dog, and it was running wild in the yard. The yard was not big anyway, so Zhao Han was not afraid of it getting lost.
"Yeah! Those are the vegetables my mother grew. Xiao Hei, stop it!"
Zhao Yu turned around and saw the thin dog digging a hole in the mud next to the courtyard wall. He couldn't help but feel anxious, put down the lion cat, and ran over to stop it.
Pulling the thin dog out of the vegetable field, Zhao Yan put her hands on her hips and began to teach her a lesson, "Xiao Hei, you bad guy, those are the vegetables my mother planted not long ago. If you damage them, I will My mother and I won’t have anything to eat!”
Xiao Hei squatted on the ground, his eyebrows drooped and his head lowered. He listened to his little master's scolding, not daring to say a word, and occasionally rolled his eyes to take a glance.
Zhao Han was not really angry, so he stretched out his finger and poked the dog's head a few times as punishment, "You have to remember it, and you won't do it again next time, or I won't like you!"
At this time, a cat meow from nowhere attracted the lion cat. After a few jumps, it nimbly climbed up the yard wall, and then jumped out again.
"Oops! Xiaobai, don't run around. You can't go outside. There are a lot of bad people!"
Zhao Han was in a panic and was even more anxious and uneasy than before. Seeing that the lion cat did not look back, she had no choice but to stamp her feet, open the courtyard door and chase after him.
In the past, she basically didn't dare to go out of this yard alone, so she was not familiar with the outside at all. When she went out, she didn't know where to chase. Fortunately, Xiao Hei was there, and it seemed to understand that Zhao Han was looking for the lion. The cat ran ahead and led the way.
Zhao Han hurriedly followed, and after passing through a moon gate, he saw the lion cat crouching in the road, but there was still a group of people in front of him, so he couldn't help but feel timid and stopped.
"Is this a cat? It has white fur, which is really rare, and its appearance is very different from other civet cats. It's so cute. Also, its eyes are one blue and one gold, which is really strange." Qian Duo Looking at the lion cat excitedly, his body was shaking with excitement, and the love and desire in his eyes almost overflowed, "Brother Guan Sun, does this cat belong to the family? Can you give it to me?"
Wei Guansun was so loud that he almost froze. Unconsciously, his voice became more and more flattering, "Sister Duo Niang, don't worry. I haven't seen this cat before. It shouldn't be from the house. Maybe it was brought by some guest." Yes, I will ask you later."
"Isn't it from the house? No, no, no, I want to hold it now. No matter who it belonged to before, from now on, it belongs to me! You guys hurry up and help me catch it!"
Qian Duo stamped her feet and acted very arrogantly, but coupled with her charming appearance, not only was she not annoying, but she was even more charming.
She was surrounded by some teenage Xunqi yamen, all dressed as scribes, with wide robes and large sleeves. They wanted to serve Qian Duo, but they felt that catching cats and chasing dogs was too rude and undermined elegance. Image, I hesitated for a while.
"Why are you standing still? Come on, don't let it run away...You guys don't look like men at all! Don't you even dare to catch a cat? Brother Guan Sun, originally I thought you were quite brave... …”
Being so excited by Qian Duo, these young men immediately put all their worries aside and began to roll up their sleeves one by one.
Wei Guansun was so angry that he hurriedly picked up his robe and tied the cuffs, "As long as it can make sister Duo Niang happy, I am willing to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of fire. Duo Niang, just wait, I will help you catch the cat."
At this time, a thin black dog rushed over and barked at everyone without fear.
Behind it, Zhao Han, who had gathered his courage, also ran over anxiously, "Xiaobai, come back!"
