Soon Qin Ming and Xiao Changxi left the workshop and boarded the carriage back home.
Under the dim candlelight, Qin Ming held Xiao Changxi's soft body in his arms.
The gauze on Xiao Changxi's face had already been taken off by Qin Ming.
She leaned in Qin Ming's arms, sleeping peacefully, with a happy smile on her lips.
Maybe she was too tired today, so after Xiao Changxi and Qin Ming kissed each other, they chatted for a few words before falling asleep.
Qin Ming looked at Xiao Changxi's sleeping face, his eyes full of pity.
He leaned over Xiao Changxi's cheek and pecked it lightly.
Then he slowly moved his body, took out a blanket from the cabinet behind him, and covered Xiao Changxi.
The vehicle workshop is on the east side of Qinjiazhuang, about seven or eight miles away from Qin Mansion.
In addition, all roads in Qinjiazhuang have been built into cement roads.
So the carriage quickly stopped at the carriage door.
Hearing Qin Da's knock on the door, Qin Ming lowered his head and glanced at Xiao Changxi's beautiful sleeping face.
Qin Ming hesitated for a moment and then gently put her on the sofa. Then he picked up the gauze and put it on her face.
After doing this, Qin Ming stood up, opened the car door and walked out.
Qin Da had just placed the horse stool when he heard the door open. He raised his head and saw Qin Ming.
"Son."
Qin Ming nodded slightly, lowered his head and said to Qin Da:
"Ada, come up and pull the curtain."
After saying that, Qin Ming returned to the carriage.
Although Qin Da had doubts in his heart, he still jumped on the carriage frame and lifted the curtain with both hands.
After he saw the scene in the carriage clearly, Qin Da couldn't help but rub his eyes with his hands.
[Are you dazzled? Could it be that Young Master and Butler Xiao...]
Qin Ming arranged the blanket on Xiao Changxi's body, then leaned down, put Xiao Changxi's soft hands on his shoulders, and said softly:
"Xi'er put her arms around my neck."
Xiao Changxi, who was sleeping, heard Qin Ming's murmur and thought she was still on the way, so she vaguely wrapped her arms around Qin Ming's neck.
Seeing this, Qin Ming put his right hand through Xiao Changxi's leg, his left hand through her armpit, and picked her up with one force.
Qin Da, who was holding up the car curtain, almost dropped his jaw when he saw this scene.
Qin Da has learned a lot since getting married, and is no longer Wu Xia A Meng.
How could he not understand what was going on when he saw this scene?
[Sir, you have done a great job keeping this secret. 】
[But Master, are you afraid that the princess will find out about this and make your future mistress displeased? 】
When Qin Da was thinking this, Qin Ming had already hugged Xiao Changxi, crossed the door, and got off the carriage.
Qin Da hesitated for a moment, jumped off the carriage, caught up with Qin Ming, and whispered:
"Sir, if the princess or your majesty finds out about this, will it happen?"
Qin Ming stopped when he heard this and glanced at Qin Dahe and the guards at the door.
As early as on the way back, Qin Ming had already decided to make the matter between him and Xiao Changxi public.
What Xiao Changxi said to him last night made Qin Ming both moved and guilty.
What was touching was that Xiao Changxi was willing to give him a child.
What makes her feel guilty is that given Xiao Changxi's current situation, it would definitely take a lot of courage to say that she wants to have a child.
And what about himself?
It seems that Xiao Changxi has been confused since she started following him.
Apart from giving her a few dresses and jewelry, he never gave her anything else.
Even when the two of them were making out, they had to do it secretly.
What if Xiao Changxi was really pregnant during her trip to Lanzhou.
And he didn't give her a formal identity, so wouldn't she be criticized by others?
So on his way back home, Qin Ming decided to give Xiao Changxi an identity before leaving.
And Xiao Changxi fell asleep on the carriage, which just gave Qin Ming an excellent opportunity.
Only then did this scene happen.
Qin Ming glanced at everyone present and said with a smile:
"Ada, tomorrow we will inform the whole house that when we meet Butler Xiao in the future, we will call her Mrs. Xiao."
As soon as Qin Ming finished speaking, his hand on his neck trembled slightly.
When Qin Da heard this answer, he was stunned for a moment, then understood what Qin Ming meant, and hurriedly bowed to answer.
Qin Ming nodded, then stepped across the threshold and walked straight to the backyard.
Along the way, I met many maids and servants in the house.
They all showed surprised expressions when they saw Qin Ming hugging the housekeeper Xiao Changxi.
Qin Ming had just crossed the Moon Gate of Qingxinyuan when Yang Zijun, Xiao Qingwan, Si She, Mao Tu and others came out to welcome him.
They were originally in the front hall of Ximeng Tower, waiting for Xiao Changxi's return.
After hearing the report from the maid in the backyard, they immediately ran out of the front hall.
Yang Zijun, who was wearing a bright red dress with the word "He", pursed her lips, walked quickly to Qin Ming, and asked:
"Mr. sir, mother... aunt, is she okay?"
Qin Ming smiled awkwardly.
"She was tired and fell asleep on the way back."
"I'll take her back to the house first."
Yang Zijun hummed.
A few moments
Qin Ming gently put Xiao Changxi on the bed, hesitated for a moment, then leaned over to help Xiao Changxi take off her embroidered shoes and covered her with a quilt.
After doing all this, Qin Ming turned to Yang Zijun and the girls and said:
"Let's go out."
Yang Zijun nodded, then took the lead and walked out of Xiao Changxi's room.
Qin Ming took off the gauze from Xiao Changxi's face, leaned over and kissed her gently on her pretty face, then stood up and left the room.
Xiao Changxi's long eyelashes trembled twice when she heard the door closing.
On the other side, Qin Ming had just closed the door when someone hugged his arm.
"Sir, does your cousin already know about you and your aunt?"
Qin Ming was stunned for a moment, looked around and saw that Wan'er was the only one outside, so he asked:
"When did you know that?"
Xiao Qingwan held Qin Ming's arm, thought for a while and said:
"Once, you hugged me in the morning and called my aunt's name. From then on, I observed you carefully for a while and you knew it."
Qin Ming recalled it and remembered that that was indeed the case.
At that time, he thought he had fooled himself!
Thinking of this, he put his finger on Xiao Qingwan's smooth forehead and said:
"You, you, you are really a ghost."
Xiao Qingwan smiled, pulled Qin Ming towards the front hall, and whispered:
"Sir, Maotu seems a little angry. Please calm her down when you have time."
Qin Ming nodded slightly and asked:
"What about you? Were you not unhappy when you found out about Xi'er and me?"
Xiao Qingwan held Qin Ming's arm, shook her head and said:
"This slave is not unhappy, but thinks this is a good thing."
"Because my aunt follows the master, it means that I will never be separated from my aunt in this life."
Qin Ming nodded. He knew that Xiao Qingwan had no parents since she was a child and was sold to the Qin Mansion by vicious relatives.
Therefore, she is particularly close to her aunt who has a similar experience to her.
Thinking of this, Qin Ming reached out and rubbed Xiao Qingwan's head.
"We are a family and will never be separated."
