Along the corridor, Li Shi waved his long sleeves and walked toward Weilan Garden with a spring breeze on his face, as if he didn't feel the cold of winter at all.

Xianke followed him with small steps.

Weilan Garden was crowded with people for a while. Jiagu Tantan was standing on Gongren's right, and Qingya was on Gongren's left. There was a medical girl waiting beside him. Below the station were maids and servants from various gardens. They were talking left and right. Laughing privately, the joy on his face could not be concealed, and the joy on his lips came out. When Li Shi entered the room, everyone gathered around him.

Kyouto, who was originally blushing, smiled shyly and lowered his head when he saw him entering.

The two of them had been arguing a few days ago, but they haven't said a word yet, and the love between husband and wife is so weak.

Qing Ya was also happy, but when she saw him coming, she frowned and stepped aside.

He quickly sat down at the table opposite Gongren, looking at her belly, his eyes squeezed together like the hook of the moon, and the corners of his mouth raised like a sailboat.

Mo Ying said respectfully: "Master, slave, congratulations to the master, you will have another son!"

Everyone standing down said congratulations: "Congratulations, Lord!"

"Okay, okay, everyone will get a reward later!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

Xianke came up and stood in front of Gongren: "Sister, I have a little brother and sister."

Li Shi waved his hand and sent everyone off. After everyone dispersed, he turned sideways and whispered softly: "Madam, you have a body, please pay more attention and don't overwork yourself."

"Yes! Ah Jia, let your daughter-in-law take care of all the affairs of the house! The second sister is also good at managing accounts, so she can also help," Tantan accepted the soup lady and handed it to Kyouto.

Kyouto listened to her words, but he didn't feel happy at all. He just sat with his head in his hands.

Li Shi calmed down a little and said, "Madam, it was my husband's fault a few days ago. Don't take it personally!"

Kyouto turned sideways with some dissatisfaction: "If I hadn't been pregnant, how would I have expected your concern and apology? If it wasn't for my belly, if I hadn't been a child, you probably wouldn't even want to look at me! "

He immediately lowered his face and glanced at Qingya again. She quickly turned away and said nothing.

"If anything, the lady may have made a mistake. My husband is busy with many things in the envoy on weekdays, so he didn't pay attention to the lady. I hope the lady will understand!"

She was used to hearing these high-sounding words, so she naturally ignored them and said in a calm tone: "It's up to you! I don't expect you to have a good look, I'm used to it!"

He was very embarrassed and the atmosphere in the room was heavy.

Tan Tan then said to him: "Aweng should spend more time with the A family, so as not to cause any quarrels. The A family usually works very hard to take care of the house, and it is also very hard to take care of several younger brothers and sisters. Now that the A family is pregnant, you It must never be the same as before.”

He smiled at her and said, "Yes! Madam, if your husband knows about it, he will definitely change it!"

With such a playful smile on his face, Gongren became more and more angry the more he looked at it, so he was helped by Mo Ying to go to the inner room and gave him a look. Jiagu Tantan looked at the situation and couldn't say anything, so he followed behind Gongren. enter.

Qingya and independent Li Shi stood in front of him, while Xianke stood on the right, looking at his sister in a dignified manner.

Qingya lowered her face, clutched the silk, and said, "Dad, I'm resigning!"

She turned around and retreated, gathering her hair. Li Shi suddenly remembered something and called out, "Wait a minute, my father has something to talk to you about."

"Yes, daddy."

Li Shi said to Na Xianke again: "Xian'er will go back to his room to study first!"

After Xian Ke left, he sat upright, elegantly and independently in front of him. The two of them looked at each other in silence, and the atmosphere in the room was not right.

He tapped the table with his fingertips and asked her: "Qingya, does the wound still hurt last time?"

Qingya shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

He sighed softly and clenched his hand into a fist: "Hey! As a father, you are indeed very harsh. Come to think of it, you are actually a sensible child. You have never fought or grabbed anything since you were a child. You are happy with the situation and are meticulous in everything you do."

She raised her chin, pursed her little mouth and sneered: "Dad, why are you telling me this all of a sudden? I grew up under your knees, and you know my nature best. If you say something unpleasant, you What I just said is superfluous."

She lowered her tone again: "Qingya is a true-hearted person, not good at beating around the bush, so she has not been popular since she was a child. I hope daddy... don't argue with me."

He didn't lose his temper this time. He just sat with his arms and looked at Qingya's bright eyes: "That's it, I won't talk about these irrelevant things with you. Let's talk about business. After a while, you will go to Yongguo Mansion. !”

"Daddy is so thinking that I will join the government? I still can't figure out why!" Qingya suddenly burst into tears, and looked at Li Shi with her cold eyes.

He quietly stood up and said with his hands behind his back: "Lu'er is a good boy. If you follow him... you will be happy."

"Good boy? This is how dad always imposes your ideas on me. I have to do what you want. The lazy lady is a good example. Did you have wealth and fame at the beginning? She was a lady from a famous family. A proud daughter of a noble family, against all odds, chose a father who was both handsome and elegant at the time, so why can’t I choose on my own?”

This conversation touched Li Shi's heart. He did not get angry again, but just calmed down and meditated.

She continued: "There is something in this world that is far more important than worldly things, and that is human love. Daddy, you love my late wife so much. Even if she treats me badly or treats my sister badly, you see it in your eyes and don't care. What to say, I actually understood and was moved by this. But dad, you are not the only one with feelings in this world. My sister, my third sister, my eldest brother and my fourth brother are all alive together with me. people."

He stared at the red plum on the tea table in trance, and then thought carefully about the meaning of Qing Ya's words.

After a moment, he said: "Yes! Everyone has feelings."

"What dad said is true, so even if you treat your cousin as your own son, or feel extremely guilty about your aunt, you can't exchange your daughter's marriage for it!"

He listened to her words carefully, suddenly woke up, and raised his head again: "That's all, let me think about it for my father, you can go to the palace to stay for a while, and then you can accompany your sister-in-law! You don't seem to be indifferent."

"Daddy..."

"Qingya, just go ahead! It doesn't matter if you stay for a while, your cousin and I have agreed in advance."

She glanced at him, then lowered her head slightly, and waited for a long time before nodding reluctantly.

"Your sister is pregnant. Later on, you can talk to her more."

"Dad, why don't you tell it yourself?"

"She won't talk to me!"

She looked at his aging eyes and turned her eyes away: "Sometimes I want to ask dad many questions. Do you love your sister or your wife first? If you love your wife first, why do you accept your sister? If you love your sister , why don’t you want to love the house and the bird?”

He was suddenly touched and thought: "You are so young, how can you know that there are not so many causes and effects and so many truths in this world?"

"Okay, slowly understand, Qingya is resigning!"

After a few words, she quickly ended her conversation, then gathered her servants for a moment and went to the inner room. She went to Hengbo and glanced at Li Shi, who was sitting high up.

There were already traces of white threads in his hair, and wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes. Under the flickering candlelight, his tall figure looked extremely lonely.

She suddenly had an illusion, thinking that if he didn't treat her like this, maybe there would be more understanding between them!

She entered the inner room and saw that Gongren was already asleep, so she sat on the couch with Jiagu Tantan.

Tantan lowered her voice: "I have heard what my uncle and Aweng said. Come to think of it, Aweng didn't have any weird temper this time and was very kind to my sister."

Qingya lowered her eyebrows and sneered coldly: "When I was young, I was tortured in all kinds of ways, but he was indifferent. What he is doing now seems boring."

"Hey, my uncle must not say that. How can father and daughter just act like that?"

"If you repay evil with kindness, how can you repay kindness? He was thinking that I was about to enter the country. If he didn't treat me better, he would be neglecting the future prince's wife, and it would also affect the relationship between nephew and uncle, so he said this to play tricks on me. , but I don’t know how I can’t see through his thoughts.”

"Then my uncle is going to listen to Aweng and go to the government?"

She breathed softly and looked at her haggard-looking mother in the curtain, her eyes flushed again: "Go! You must go. Now that my sister is pregnant, if I have another conflict with my father over this matter, I will definitely die." It would affect my sister and make her pregnant and angry, so I thought about it, I just went to my cousin's house to visit relatives, nothing serious."

Jiagu Tantan gently took her hand and squeezed it for a long time. She was as gentle as the warm sun and said, "My uncle is now more thoughtful and sensible!"

"I have my own perseverance. Now I am just thinking about my sister for the time being. I am also asking my sister-in-law to take care of my sister at home and try not to let my third sister meet her."

"Okay, I know. Don't worry, uncle. You are going to the Yongguo Mansion. You must pay attention to everything. I heard that Mrs. Liang Guo in the government is not easy to mess with. Today is different from the past. My uncle must pay attention to everything. Be careful."

She nodded obediently: "Okay, Qingya, thank you sister-in-law!"

"As for my uncle, we are a family!"

After hearing this, Qing Ya pursed her lips and smiled, then quietly walked out of the inner room, only to see that Li Shi had already left, and there was a cup of steaming milk tea on the table.

She sighed deeply, passed by the door, and whispered to Cuihe: "Cuihe, please deliver a letter for me today."

Cui He looked into her firm eyes and knew what she meant, nodding silently.

The two of them walked quickly along the corridor, feeling more and more that the cold winter wind was about to pick at people's bones. A cluster of crimson in the distance took away the limelight of this winter.

For Yu Qingya, the northern cold city of Huining spends most of the year in heavy snowfall. The mountains and rivers are frozen for thousands of miles, and people's hearts have also changed like this, with the snow chilling them to the bone.
