The entire Xiyuan was more lively than usual. It was obviously not different from other times, but it just made people feel that the whole house was different.
It's probably because the male host is back.
The elders of the Wei clan were usually very indifferent to her. As soon as Wei Cheng came back, they all handed over their names and said they were visiting her and their children.
The day before the Huns came in, she took everyone she could carry up the mountain. Except for Wei Cheng's two half-grown brothers who were willing to follow her, the rest of the Wei family's uncles, aunts, aunts, and six mothers-in-law were not willing to leave, even if she sent If people remind them that it is not safe, they would rather let their generals guard the door of their house.
Anyway, she had done her best, and I couldn’t blame her if I really didn’t leave.
Probably because they were lucky, they felt that the Huns were not that capable of invading.
I heard from Qing Fei that when Fan Yang was breached, the elders were so frightened that they could no longer defend themselves. They hid in the Wei ancestral hall and prayed for the blessings of their ancestors. Unexpectedly, the ancestors and sects did not protect them, and the ancestral hall was destroyed. I heard from Qing Fei that two older uncles died.
However, Wei Cheng had never felt much about these relatives who were just a few rooms away. Even after his two uncles died, he never heard a word about them.
Sanleri was overcrowded for a while, so the curtain on the bed was put down, and an eight-leaf folding screen of rosewood inlaid with mica was placed to block the view and the incoming wind.
Peilin had eaten and drank enough, and was wrapped in a pink-blue swaddling clothes. She lay leisurely in the cradle and took a nap. The cradle was hung on a beam by a long and thick chain. Shen's mother and Xu Yu were guarding the cradle. I smiled as I dealt with the visiting Wei family members.
"She looks so good."
Yin Xiao couldn't help but twitching his mouth while lying on the bed.
"Look at the little nose and eyes. They are carved in the same mold as Zhong Yang."
"Yes, our young lady has great blessings. She was born in such a dangerous time, and she is still so energetic."
"Now that the children are out, when will the wedding be held? We are all waiting for a glass of wedding wine."
The person who spoke was Wei Cheng's third aunt. She had slender eyebrows, slender eyes, fair skin, and was dressed in navy blue satin with long sleeves and dark clothes. She smiled meaningfully.
Without waiting for Shen Yinxiao's answer, Xu Yu smiled and responded to them: "Come on, the second uncle and the third uncle have just left. It's hard to do it right away. I won't forget the old ladies by then."
The third aunt held the hands of the other sisters-in-law, looked at her hazy shadow with a smile across the screen and the purple gauze curtain embroidered with large peonies, and stretched out her hand to order the girl behind her to hand over the things she had prepared. .
"This is a little kindness. Yinxiao has done a lot for the Wei family. Zhongyang's father and mother left early, so we must accept this kindness."
Wei Cheng came back shortly after they left.
"What does it smell like? It smells weird."
He strode in, frowned at first, took off his robe and threw it on the small couch aside. Then he washed his hands and face with soap locust in the silver basin, pulled off the handkerchief and wiped them dry before he came over.
"I heard that many people came today? Didn't they say anything unpleasant?"
He lifted up the curtain and sat down on the edge of the bed, which sank slightly.
"It smells like powder. I'll have the house fumigated later. Don't let the smell spoil the child."
The woman casually said "Hmm", supported her cheek with one hand, and leaned lazily on the soft pillow. After hearing this, the woman who was in a false sleep opened her eyes and smiled.
"What's not nice to say?"
He thought for a while, raised his hand to touch her chin, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect this. My wife is very kind. She recently gave me a lovely daughter named Yuxue. I can't think of anything bad to say about her." .”
As he spoke, the man's eyes were drawn to the tray on the incense table beside the bed.
The tray was covered with red silk, and the contents inside made the silk bulge. He opened it, revealing the golden necklace and gold ingot inside.
A pair of gold necklaces inlaid with onyx and emerald, twenty-four gold ingots and four pairs of children's gold bracelets and gold anklets.
"Third aunt and the others gave it to me." Seeing that he noticed it, she explained: "They talked with me very much, and also said that I worked very hard for your Wei family."
"The general should tell them not to send these things next time."
He picked up a gold ingot and weighed it on his fingertips.
"That's all you gave away?"
He sneered and his face darkened slightly.
He hurried back with his men at high speed. Although he saved the old and the young by the way, he still saved their lives. How could he just use this to send his people away?
"I'm sorry to bring it in."
Yin Xiao paused.
Jin Yuanbao was thrown back into the tray with a thud.
"Next time you come to the door, I'll have you kicked out."
He frowned, picked up the tray and threw it aside.
She advised: "It's all the elders' wishes, and it's already very good."
After all, they are all real gold. When she was a child, she didn't have so many jewelry.
He didn't refute, but he was disdainful in his heart. He didn't care about Shen Yinxiao's soft ears. Those old men were really shameless.
"I heard someone said that a distinguished guest came to the house."
The woman spoke leisurely.
Wei Chengxin jumped up and down, and subconsciously looked back at her.
She had her hair loose, her face was rosy, and her eyebrows were gentle.
The translucent crimson gauze half-hidden her pretty face behind her, and her pair of black glass-like eyes looked at him playfully, making him blush and her heart beat beating at the sight of such a shameless person.
"Listen to who is talking behind your back."
He walked up, lifted up his robe and sat on it. As soon as he got closer, he could smell the faint fragrance of milk.
The aroma of jasmine is mixed with the aroma of milk, and is like the grape wine and milk tea from the Western Regions. It is intoxicating and refreshing.
She looked at his guilty look quietly.
The man touched her hand, and the soft, boneless hands rested quietly on his palm.
"Actually, I've wanted to tell you about this for a long time, but I think you need to rest more in the past few days, so I'm afraid you won't get enough rest."
His throat rolled.
Subconsciously, he squeezed her hand and slowly tightened it, fearing that she would fall out again.
She wouldn't make a fuss if she fell out, and now she didn't have a family to let her leave at any time. It was clear that there was nothing to worry about, but he was still a little uneasy.
If he is angry, he ignores him for several days, says everything in a nonchalant manner, and does not refuse or respond, which gives him a headache the most.
She looked at him with wide eyes and motioned for him to go ahead.
