When Le Zhi had had enough fun, he put his pillow on Huo Du's shoulder and fell asleep in a daze. Her cheeks were against the side of his neck, and the warm breath she exhaled brushed against the skin on his neck, making his body stiffer.
The back of the white hand was placed in front of his eyes, he bowed his head slightly, and kissed her finger.
Because of her nonsense just now, Huo Du's cold lips were rarely dyed with a slightly hot temperature. Touching the back of her hand at this time made the sleeping person tremble unconsciously, and let out a soft whisper unconsciously.
But in the end, she was lingered by the familiar quiet atmosphere, and she didn't wake up, but pressed him even tighter. Following Huo Du's footsteps, the person on his back swayed slightly, and her lips gently pecked on his neck as she swayed...
The moonlight is intoxicating, and the plum branches are fragrant in the wind.
Huo Du's peach blossom eyes were soft and... inexplicably burning. The long and sweet breath was close to his ears, he turned his eyes slightly, curved his lips, and a little light gradually emerged from the bottom of his eyes.
The little fox slept really well.
- Don't sleep tonight.
He had planned to carry her directly back to the dormitory, but unexpectedly, when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he heard the cries of children coming from inside.
Huo Du frowned, and before he could cover her ears, the person on his back had already woken up.
"...It's Yu'er!"
Le Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and she woke up suddenly. She hurriedly jumped off Huo Du's back and rushed in. But her eyes were still confused, and she didn't pay attention to her feet. She tripped over the door edge and fell inward...
Fortunately, a pair of big hands wrapped around her waist and supported her.
"Look at the road."
Huo Du's voice was a little heavy, but he could see the person in front of him with his head drooping, and he instantly lost his breath. He sighed inwardly, took her hand, and walked in steadily.
There was chaos in the front hall, and everyone was at a loss when faced with Le Yu's crying. Neither Le Jin nor Lin Yue had any experience with raising children, and the other men didn't know what to do.
Had to take turns coaxing him clumsily, but with little success.
"What's wrong?" Le Zhi walked in with her skirt up, her face full of anxiety.
"Zhizhi! You're finally back." Le Jin hurried to Lezhi as if seeing a savior, and said to her in a low voice, "Sister-in-law left a letter and left."
gone
Le Zhi took the letter from Le Jin and opened it with a frown. The more he looked at it, the more solemn his expression became—
Sister-in-law... Does she really want Yu'er
Le Yu's cry became louder and louder, and he whispered to his mother, mother... Because he cried for too long, his voice was hoarse. Le Zhi listened to the whole heart pulling together, and it was painful. She walked to Le Yu and squatted down, took out the handkerchief and wiped the tears on his little face. Looking at her little nephew's red eyes, she couldn't help but blushed and said in a choked voice, "Don't cry, don't cry, Yu Honey, there's a little aunt here..."
"Woooo... little aunt, woohoo..."
Although Le Yu is small, he is already a little sensible. In the ignorance, he also realized that his mother didn't seem to want him anymore. These days, his father disappeared, his mother took him to hide in Tibet, and now his mother is gone too, and his whole person is shrouded in fear. There is only endless fear, fear...
So he couldn't stop crying.
Le Zhi was also suffocated in her heart, she couldn't help crying, she couldn't think of anything to do with Yu'er's cry. I had to wipe his tears and comfort him softly.
At this moment, a familiar figure crouched down beside her. Then she saw Huo Du turn Yu'er's body towards her and asked, "Do you still want to cry?"
Le Yu stared blankly at the unfamiliar handsome face with teary eyes, and nodded shyly.
Hearing this, Huo Du picked him up, sat on the soft chair, put the little man on his lap, and said, "Then continue."
Lezhi, who was lifted up by Linyue and stood aside, and everyone in the hall looked a little dazed.
Xiao Yu'er was also stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and sobbed softly. Only this time, after a while, he stopped crying. The little head swayed, and his thoughts were a little chaotic—
Just now, the eldest aunt and the little aunt kept comforting him in a low voice. He felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't stop crying. But this good-looking uncle cried with him, but he didn't want to cry anymore...
"Have you finished crying?"
Le Yu hummed timidly, and wiped his face with a chubby little hand, but the tears and snot on his face were mixed together, dirty and difficult to wipe off. Suddenly, a large sleeve appeared in front of me...
It is a good-looking uncle's sleeve.
He pulled over cautiously and wiped his face.
"Are you hungry?" Huo Du put his palm on his head and asked in a low voice.
Le Yu blinked and sniffed, "No, I'm not hungry..."
"Then go home and sleep."
Huo Du stood up with him in his arms and handed him over to Linyue. Everyone looked at this scene in amazement. Xiao Yu'er let Lin Yue hold it peacefully, but his eyes kept looking at Huo Du, and there was novelty in his doubts.
"Who, who are you?" The child couldn't hide things in his heart, and he asked directly if he had any doubts.
Huo Du just glanced at Lezhi and didn't answer.
None of the people present made a sound.
- This question is too difficult to answer.
Li and Qi, Le and Huo. The grievances and grievances between them are really hard to tell now. But the child does not know the reason, and no one knows how to explain all this to him.
Huo Du naturally knew their entanglement, but all he cared about was Le Zhi's thoughts. So he didn't answer, just waited quietly for Le Zhi to speak.
However, she didn't speak for a long time.
Huo Du smiled knowingly, and instructed Linyue: "Carry him down first."
It doesn't matter.
He never wanted to force her.
"etc!"
Le Zhi suddenly made a sound, calling Lin Yue who had just turned around. She walked to Le Yu's side, raised her hand and rubbed his head, and told him clearly, "Yu'er, he is the little uncle."
little uncle
Le Yu still doesn't fully know the names of relatives, but there is only one word difference between the little aunt and the little uncle, so he should be very close to the little aunt, right
So, he turned his head and blinked at Huo Du, and said softly in a glutinous tone: "Little uncle..."
Hearing this, Huo Du's heart flashed a feeling he had never felt before. He suppressed the emotions in his heart, took a few steps forward, imitated Le Zhi, reached out and rubbed Le Yu's head, and then made a low hum.
It was late at night and everyone was tired, so Le Yu's matter had to be discussed tomorrow.
Le Zhi was listless and had no strength at all. He let Huo Du hold her to bathe her, wipe her body, and put on her bedclothes. Then she sat blankly on the soft chair, staring blankly at the red plum that was folded back.
- It turns out that joy is really hard to keep.
After a while, Huo Du came out of the bathroom. He slowly walked to Lezhi's edge, put one arm around her shoulder, and the other under her knees, hugging her absentmindedly.
Until the two of them leaned against the soft pillow together and lay on the soft slump. Le Zhi leaned against his chest, the corners of her eyes turned red, but she tried her best to endure it and didn't want to cry.
Also... can't cry.
She is now a lot of people rely on, she has to be very strong and strong. The more this happens, the less you can cry.
"Why is it better to be a little aunt than a nephew?"
There was a voice above her head, and Le Zhi raised her head to look at him. She was dazed and didn't understand the meaning of his words for a while.
"Even children know they are going to cry when they are sad. What are you doing?"
She knew that Huo Du had seen it. She thought that her expression must be ugly at this time, so that he could easily see through it. Or maybe she didn't plan to hide it from him at all, so she showed the most real vulnerability in front of him.
But she still held back, she said in a low hoarse voice, "But I'm no longer a child."
"It really isn't a child anymore." Huo Du took her into his arms, caressed her soft hair with his palm, and said in a clear and low voice, "It's my baby."
After a pause, he added: "So, you can cry in my arms."
Le Zhi's eyes were wide, and his heart was both startled and sour.
—He always had a way to tick off her tears.
So, she leaned on his heart and shed the tears that had been held back for a while. She cried for a long time, the suffocation and pain in her heart dissipated with Lianlian's tears.
She just felt bad for Yu'er, she lost her parents at a young age.
"What about Yu'er? He's still so young..." She whimpered, not knowing what to do.
Even with her aunt, it is difficult to replace the mother's position.
"What's so difficult about it? I'll send someone to get her back."
"No, no!" Le Zhi hurriedly raised his eyes and shook his head vigorously: "Sister-in-law and sister-in-law are also suffering..."
She told Huo Du in detail the past events of the emperor's brother and sister-in-law. Originally, it was the emperor's fault that came first. She could understand her sister-in-law's decision, and she didn't want to force her sister-in-law to take care of Yu'er.
Sister-in-law has the right to choose her own life, and Lezhi doesn't want to delay her anymore.
It's just that Yu'er is really pitiful, and her heart is uncomfortable.
Children are the most innocent.
"Didn't you say, he still has your little aunt." Huo Du leaned over slightly, kissed her hair, and said, "Now there is a little uncle."
Le Zhi raised her tearful eyes and looked at him deeply with teary eyes.
Huo Du had a faint smile on his face. He raised his hand and wiped away the residual tears from the corners of her eyes with the pulp of his fingers, and then calmly said, "Don't worry."
Don't worry, don't be afraid.
and me.
Le Zhi suddenly stopped crying, and her chaotic heart gradually calmed down. She leaned in almost unconsciously, rubbed the corner of his lips lightly, and then backed away.
Seeing that she was much better, Huo Du let her lie down, pulled the quilt over the brocade and covered her, then held her face and leaned over to kiss her. He lowered the curtain of the bed, hugged her and whispered, "Go to sleep."
In the dim bed, only a trace of candlelight filtered in through the gap.
"Is the little uncle not bullying me tonight?"
A low voice came to his ears, and Huo Du couldn't help but chuckle in the darkness.
His little fox is really stupid when he is stupid.
In today's situation, it would be too unreasonable for him to bully her again, right
"Don't bully." He curved his lips and said, "I owe it first."
Le Zhi did not answer.
After a while, Huo Du thought that she must have fallen asleep, so he closed his eyes. However-
"But I still want you to bully me."
The low, humming sound came from being buried in the quilt. Huo Du almost suspected that he had heard it wrong. When he opened his eyes to look at the person beside him, a warm breath came towards him...
Even in the dark, Le Zhi could accurately find his lips and kiss them firmly.
Huo Du was stunned for a moment.
Until a soft hand wrapped around his waist and used his fingertips to open the tie of his nightgown...
