"good!"
Yuanyuan took her hand and swayed forward with her.
The child was not defensive and followed her when she saw her speaking gently and softly.
Xiao Fuzi also quickly followed, winking at Caizhi who was holding Lotus, and asked her to go back and report to Master Zhangyin.
Concubine Jing was one of the few good-tempered concubines in the palace. She fasted and chanted Buddha's name all year round and rarely walked around.
But when it comes to the adopted daughter of the palm seal, he doesn't dare to take it lightly. If anything goes wrong, his head may be moved.
"Your hands are so cold!"
Yuanyuan squeezed her fingers, which were still cold after holding them for so long.
"Did I freeze you?"
Concubine Jing has been cold since she was a child, and she wears thicker clothes than others in summer.
"No, I'll cover it for you. You'll stop being cold in a while."
Yuanyuan held her hand with both small hands, trying to warm her hand.
"..."
Concubine Jing watched her actions and tears fell unexpectedly.
I once had a daughter, who died when she was less than six months old.
If her daughter were alive, she would be about the same age as her.
"Why are you crying?"
Yuanyuan didn't like to see others cry, so she raised her hand to wipe her tears, but unfortunately she couldn't reach it.
"It's okay, I just thought of something sad. Do you want to come and sit in my palace? There are delicious cakes."
Concubine Jing knelt down and picked her up, holding her softly in her arms.
"Your Majesty, you are not in good health, so I'd better let my servant carry you."
The old nanny stretched out her hand to take the child from her arms, but Concubine Jing raised her hand to block her.
"It doesn't matter!"
The palace where Concubine Jing lives is not far from here. It is fresh and elegant with many flowers and plants planted inside.
The maid brought the freshly made cakes and sour plum drink to relieve the heat, and placed them on the stone table in the courtyard.
Yuanyuan likes exquisite and delicious snacks very much. She ate two pieces of osmanthus cake and mare's milk cake in one sitting.
"Be careful, don't choke."
Concubine Jing wiped the debris on her mouth with a handkerchief and thought the way she was eating cakes was very cute.
After eating the pastries, Yuanyuan drank a small cup of sour plum drink.
Not long after, a report came from outside, and Admiral Dongchang asked to see him.
It was Pei Zhiyan who asked him to pick up the child.
There are still a lot of snacks on the table. Yuanyuan pointed to the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table: "Can I take some of this to go?"
This one tasted the best and she wanted to take some back with her.
Concubine Jing asked the palace maid to bring her a snack box and fill it all up.
"What is the bad dad doing?"
Yuanyuan sat on Wu Xian's arm and waved to Concubine Jing.
"The palm print is waiting for you to return. Please come to Concubine Jing's palace from now on."
"Why?"
"You will understand later."
Concubine Jing's father was the censor of the Yushitai, and he scolded Palm Seal the most.
And Concubine Jing knew that she was from Wangyue Tower, but she still deliberately approached her, which could not protect Qi Huai's intentions.
Wu Xian looked at her innocent appearance and couldn't help but sigh.
I don’t know what Zangyin was thinking that he would keep her by his side.
This kid is really lucky.
On a dark summer night, when the group came back, Pei Zhiyan was having dinner, a plate of side dishes and a bowl of porridge.
Wu Xian sent her back and went about his errands. Yuanyuan struggled to carry the snack box and put it on the low stool next to him.
"What are you doing at Concubine Jing's place?"
Pei Zhiyan put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked down at her.
"Go eat something delicious."
Yuanyuan fiddled with the food box with her little hands, studying how to open it.
"Just ask them to cook it for you whatever you want to eat. There's no need to go to someone else's place to eat it."
Pei Zhiyan poked her head and saw her lowering her head to look at the food box. He didn't know if she heard what he said.
"Do you want to eat it? Osmanthus cake!"
Yuanyuan couldn't open the box, so she pointed at it and asked him if he would eat it.
"Did you bring it especially for me?"
Pei Zhiyan's eyes glazed over. In the past, when his mother-in-law came to the palace, she would bring some cakes from the palace for him, his sister, and his younger sister to eat.
She actually had some conscience and spared her life in vain.
"Um…"
Yuanyuan nodded, the bad dad would definitely be able to open this box.
"You don't have to bring these useless things back next time."
As Pei Zhiyan said this, he had already unscrewed the lid of the food box.
"you eat…"
Yuanyuan took a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and handed it to his mouth.
"..."
Pei Zhiyan stared at her hand for a moment, then lowered his head and planned to eat the pastry.
Unexpectedly, the child shrank his hand, turned around and stuffed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake into his mouth.
Seeing the sweet-scented osmanthus cake entering her mouth, an afterimage passed in front of Yuanyuan's eyes.
When he reacted, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake had already entered Pei Zhiyan's mouth.
Comparing her hand speed with martial arts practitioners, she is still a bit immature.
"Still want to play tricks on me? Hold your sweet-scented osmanthus cake and go out with me."
"..."
Yuanyuan stood there silently, picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and put it into her mouth.
"I told you to get out, don't act deaf and dumb."
Pei Zhiyan found that she was always challenging his patience and annoying him for no reason.
Since the death of his family, nothing has caused him great emotional fluctuations.
"it's dark!"
"So what?"
"I'm going to sleep here."
Yuanyuan knew that the sleeping place was on the third floor, and she didn't want to sleep on the soft couch on the first floor.
"Go to sleep in the side hall, I'll have someone make your bed."
"Hmph! You didn't tell me earlier!"
Pei Zhiyan almost flipped the table over when he saw her holding the box from behind.
How can something as big as a sesame be so annoying?
At night, Caizhi cleaned her body and made a bed in the room to keep her vigil.
The house in the side hall had never been lived in before, and it still smelled dusty after cleaning. The ventilation was not very good, and it was stuffy and stuffy.
"What's wrong?"
When Caizhi saw her sitting up suddenly, she immediately stood up and came over.
"I feel hot…"
Yuanyuan tugged on her pajamas, feeling like she couldn't breathe easily.
"My slave, let me fan you, go to sleep..."
Caizhi took a fan and sat by the bed to fan her and slowly put her to sleep.
But not long after the fan stopped, Yuanyuan woke up from the heat again and got up from the bed.
"I want to go out..."
She wanted to sleep in Bad Daddy's house. It was very cool there and Caizhi didn't have to stay up all night to fan herself.
"It's late at night, let's go out tomorrow."
Caizhi advised, but unfortunately the child didn't listen to her and opened the door and ran to the main hall.
Pei Zhiyan was not asleep yet, sitting by the bed and reading ancient books.
Hearing the sound of stepping on the stairs, the child burst into his house holding a soft pillow.
"go out!"
Yuanyuan was chased away as soon as she came in. She hugged the pillow tightly with her little hands and took two steps forward.
"I want to sleep here, it's too hot."
"If it's hot, let Caizhi fan you."
"Sister Caizhi will be very tired if she keeps fanning me."
"You feel sorry for me."
Pei Zhiyan's tone softened unconsciously when he heard her soft voice.
Judging from her age, it is quite good for her to be able to understand the difficulties of others at her age.
But the object of her distress was obviously not herself, otherwise she wouldn't have come over with a pillow in the middle of the night.
"..."
Seeing that he was not as aggressive as he was during the day, Yuanyuan plucked up the courage and ran quickly to the bed holding the pillow.
As a result, he ran too fast without looking at the road, tripped himself, and fell on his back.
When Pei Zhiyan saw her lying unconscious on the ground, he put down the ancient book in his hand, walked towards her, and picked her up from the ground.
"Why didn't you say anything? Did you become a fool?"
"..."
Yuanyuan looked at the ceiling with tears filling her eyes, and cried out loudly.
The grievances I had suffered for two consecutive days erupted at this moment.
She was still a child after all, and being intimidated and cruel by him was already beyond what she could bear.
