In the past four months, King Jing has done many things.
Not to mention other things, he made a trip to the capital.
All parties in the capital are surging, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a close call. Naturally, he cannot just sit in Jingzhou and command remotely.
A lot of things happened in the middle, but fortunately, the hard work paid off. After that, King Jing didn't care how Emperor Xi cleaned up the mess in the capital, and led someone to sneak back to Jingzhou.
As soon as I arrived in Jingzhou, I went straight here.
Xiaohua went to wash her face and came back, and saw him sitting there surrounded by two children asking all kinds of strange questions.
In fact, for children over two years old, the memory is not very long. They know who the father is and who the mother is, but if you show up after a long time, many babies will not recognize you.
Yiyi is, fortunately, Ye'er's memory is much better than his sister's, and it was he who recognized King Jing and told his sister that it was Daddy's. The word 'father' unlocked the shackles of Yiyi's deepest memory. It may also be the nature of father and daughter, or she may remember a man who always hugged him when he was a child. Although he didn't smile, he was very patient. All in all, Yiyi and King Jing were very hot, and after a while, they knew they were hugging their father's neck and laughing.
However, Ye'er has more personality, and it was not until King Jing looked at him with his small brows that he remembered giving him the snack box in his hand, and he showed a little childish joy.
The joy only lasted for a moment, and the little baby Ye Er probably realized that he had to show that he was more sensible than his sister, put the box on the side of the table, and nodded with satisfaction.
All I had to do was say to King Jing, "You've done a good job, and you know that when you make money, you need to buy delicious food for the dolls at home."
This scene made Xiaohua have a feeling of tears in her eyes.
The woman's mood is really strange, she is clearly resentful, she is worried day and night, she clearly thinks about not giving him a good look, but the moment she sees this person, she is full of joy and excitement. Forget all the miscellaneous things, and can't remember anymore...
Lilac and Chuncao put dinner on the table, set the two children to eat, and Xiaohua and King Jing also sat at the table.
Xiaohua froze and lowered her head to eat, and suddenly a pair of chopsticks put some vegetables into her bowl. She didn't speak and continued to eat. Maybe because of the confusion, I just pick up the rice in the bowl, and I don't know how to pick vegetables. King Jing sighed, and seeing that there was no more food in her bowl, he put it again for her. After a meal, Xiaohua ate a lot, but King Jing didn't eat anything.
But he didn't feel hungry or tired. He had come back after more than ten days in a row. The moment he saw her and the child, all the fatigue and hard work disappeared.
After dinner, hot water is ready.
Now that the weather is getting colder, Ye'er and Yiyi don't take a bath every day. After washing the two children's faces and hands and feet, they changed their sleeping clothes before letting Lilac hug them to sleep.
Xiaohua went to take a bath, and after washing, changed King Jing to go.
It could be seen that King Jing was very busy, so he prepared a lot of water for him. King Jing washed it by himself. After washing, he came out of the tub and saw a set of men's underwear on a shelf.
Clothes are clean and new, take off and put on, just fit. King Jing's eyes softened and he stepped out of the bathroom.
Xiaohua lay stiffly on the inside of the bed, with her back to the outside. King Jing got into bed, leaned over, and took her into his arms.
"Little Hua'er, let me sleep for a while, I haven't slept for several days."
The man buried in her neck mumbled like that, and stopped talking. After a while, Xiaohua exhaled lightly and slowly relaxed her body.
Behind him is the man's warm embrace, which has surrounded him for more than two years, day and night. Every time I am in this embrace, it seems that all the troubled, sad, unhappy ones can disappear without a trace.
The room was so quiet that I could even hear each other's heartbeats. Xiaohua slowly closed her eyes, and her two heartbeats gradually merged into one beat.
***
King Jing slept for a long time and did not wake up until the morning of the third day.
During this period, someone from the opposite Zhao Da came to ask, and when he heard that His Highness was still resting, he turned around and left. During this period, everyone in the small courtyard couldn't help but keep quiet, even Yiyi knew that Mao Dan'er came to play at her house, and he shushes his little finger to tell him not to speak loudly, Daddy is sleeping.
While Xiaohua and the two children were having breakfast, King Jing woke up, and he walked out with his waist-length hair loose and wearing a thin shirt. A flash of joy flashed in Xiaohua's eyes, and he ordered Lilac to add another pair of tableware.
The breakfast is very simple, porridge and side dishes, with some steamed buns. King Jing might be really hungry, he drank two bowls of gruel and three buns before stopping.
The child asked Lilac to lead out to play, and Xiaohua and King Jing returned indoors. Just after finishing the meal, King Jing's expression had a hint of laziness, leaning on the head of the bed, looking at the little flower sitting beside him. Seeing her thinking about how to ask, he pulled her into his arms, pulled her hairpin, let her long hair spread over the bed, and slowly followed her big palms.
"You should know my identity. The current Holy Emperor Xi is my father. There are five adult princes, and only these five..."
King Jing slowly began to speak, Xiaohua's ears were attached to his chest, listening to the vibration of his chest, and began to understand his world with the slow speed of his speech.
Xiaohua knows well about the secret struggle between rich and noble families. She has also seen ugly faces between brothers who are fighting for family property. Including the fourth young master Ruan Siyi in the previous life, and the first brother Qianxiong, who became secretly aggressive in the end.
It is easy for people to be unbalanced. They are both sons, and they are the same parents. Why should I let you? I gave you the title at the end, and I gave you my future, yet you always oppress me secretly or secretly
It's not that Xiaohua has never seen the prince's kindness to the fourth young master, and everyone in the house said that the prince is kind to the young master, but only one can understand whether it is good or not. Xiaohua was Ruan Siyi's favored aunt in her last life, so she knew some private things, and she also understood what superficial work was.
The battle between men and men has never been different from the jealousy of women in the backyard, and the battle in the Hou Mansion can't be compared with the royal family.
It turns out that a high status and a lot of honors are not without a price. The price is that there is no father and son in the heavenly family, and brothers can kill each other. You can also not fight, the end of not fighting is to be a mermaid.
King Jing didn't say it in detail, so he gave a general description. Including why Xiaohua and the two children were hidden, they all explained.
The words he explained were very concise, but Xiaohua could understand the meaning inside. His constant plan was that if something happened to him, she and the child would be sent away, far away. And he, of course, died...
This plan started from the moment she had a body, that's why there was the enclosed west courtyard, the hidden child, the decision to take her out to play, and the double who looked like her...
Xiaohua had already crawled into King Jing's arms and cried with tears streaming down her face, this person, this person...
How could he make such a decision? If something really happened to him, what would happen to her and the child
For a moment, Xiaohua was at a loss.
If King Jing told her this situation at the time, what would she have done? Go with the child, or stay with him? It must be very difficult to give up! The child is too young, neither father nor mother, how to live in the future. But leaving him alone would definitely make her heart-wrenching unwilling...
It was not until this moment that Xiaohua understood the real meaning behind King Jing's actions.
Her heart was sweet, bitter, sour and spicy, extremely complicated, she could only cry in a mess, patted King Jing's chest with her hands, and muttered in her mouth, "You are too bad, too bad, what if something happens to you? Do, how can you leave me and the child behind..."
King Jing let out a sigh of relief and smoothed her hair again, "It's not all right."
"What if something happens? What do you want me to do? Remarry with a child..."
Suddenly the world turned upside down, and what followed was a very overbearing remark from King Jing.
"you dare!"
Seeing that he cared, Xiaohua laughed and cried, "Who told you not to take me with you, if something happens to you..." She wrapped her arms around his neck, "...I don't want to live anymore..."
Seeing her crying with red eyes and red nose, King Jing's heart softened as if it was about to melt.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay, everything is resolved..." He murmured soothingly and kissed her thinly.
"Don't do this in the future. Without you, I really can't live anymore..."
Even alive, it is like a walking dead.
Crying and comforting, finally turned into two people fighting to the death.
The children did not come to disturb them, and the small courtyard was extremely quiet. It was not until the afternoon that Xiaohua got out of bed shyly, while King Jing looked at her with a contented expression.
He personally brought water in, but King Jing was lazy and didn't want to move. Xiaohua could only wash it by herself, and then brought water for him to scrub. This man's face is serious, but his heart is not serious at all, he just lay there and let Xiaohua wipe him with a hot handkerchief.
It may be that the important thing in mind has been done, and King Jing's mentality has changed somewhat. Xiaohua blushed and had a thick neck, and King Jing said to her with a stiff face, "I have given birth to two children."
Does that mean she can't be shy? !
Pooh!
Thinking like this, Xiao Hua gave him an angry look on her face. At first glance, she felt a little embarrassed, but she was willing to do this for him. What's more, it's not that she hasn't done it, it's just that she is always embarrassed.
The two rubbed together for a while, before Xiaohua chased King Jing up, changed the bedding, opened the door and went to the yard.
There was no one in the yard. Hearing movement here, Lilac came out from the east wing.
"lady."
"What about Ye'er and Yiyi?"
"Go out to play."
"Go and bring something to eat."
***
The man from the Tao's sister is back.
He is a man of few words, but very polite.
In the past few days, I can always see him appearing in the alley, sometimes to accompany the Tao's sisters on the street, and sometimes to find his own doll to go home for dinner. This man is almost weird, but many young daughters-in-law and aunts always blushed involuntarily when they saw him.
Without him, the man from the Tao family is too handsome.
The most handsome man in the alley is He Xiucai from the He family, but compared with the men from the Tao family, He Xiucai is not even worthy of carrying shoes.
After meeting the men of the Tao's sister, everyone knew what kind of person is the most suitable for the Tao's sister. In the past, people who wanted to match the Tao family always felt that the person they were talking about was a little bit worse, but now I understand that the difference is the feeling that standing together is very suitable.
On this day, Xiaohua and King Jing had breakfast and went to the morning market in the city.
While walking and strolling, when Xiaohua came back, there were some fresh vegetables and a fish in the bamboo basket held by Xiaohua, while King Jing carried a few packets of snacks and fruits.
"Sister Tao, go shopping." A little daughter-in-law in the alley greeted.
"yes."
Xiaohua smiled and nodded, and walked past with King Jing.
The little daughter-in-law's voice scolding her man came from behind, "Look at how good a man from the Tao family is, he knows how to accompany his daughter-in-law to buy groceries and take a walk, look at you, when did you accompany me out? If you marry you, you will be a bull and a horse for your family, which is really a big loss..."
The man seemed to refute a few words in a low voice, but Xiaohua didn't hear it clearly. She secretly glanced at King Jing, but he didn't look at her. Under the sleeves, he kept holding her hand, but it moved, and Xiao Hua couldn't help showing a sweet smile.
Walking to the front of his house, he saw a person standing at the door diagonally opposite.
Xiaohua glanced at King Jing and entered the courtyard gate, while King Jing went to the opposite side.
After a while, King Jing came back.
"Your Highness, are you leaving?"
From that day King Jing told everything, Xiaohua knew that sooner or later she would leave here. It's just that after living here for so long, there are some unknown reluctances to give up. King Jing seemed to see Xiaohua's reluctance, and he has not mentioned leaving for the past few days. Seeing the appearance of Commander Lin today, Xiaohua thought it was time to leave here.
King Jing nodded.
"In a hurry?"
"You can stay another day."
After lunch was over, Xiaohua pulled the two children aside to talk.
Ye'er and Yiyi's understanding is limited, Xiaohua can only tell them in a way that children can understand, we are going to leave here and go home. The two children didn't quite understand what it meant to leave here. Xiaohua pondered for a moment and said that they would not be able to play with these little friends in the alley in the future.
Hearing this, Yiyi burst into tears, crying and saying 'No, no, no'. Ye'er was better than her, but she also frowned.
Xiaohua couldn't tell such a small child what a banquet is in the world. After all, parting is something everyone must experience when growing up. She can only squat aside and wait for her daughter to finish crying, then wipe her tears and tell her After and my brother, they will have other friends, and they can come back to play with their friends when they grow up.
Yiyi asked what it means to grow up, Xiaohua said, when Yiyi was as old as her mother, when her brother was as old as her father.
Xiaohua also went to say goodbye to a few well-connected little daughters-in-law. Her rhetoric was to go to her man's hometown to settle down. After all, fallen leaves return to their roots.
Cuizhi and the blacksmith's daughter-in-law were very reluctant to part with her, and Xiaohua felt guilty and felt that she had friends with these people. Except for the fact that they were real, almost all of them were made up falsehoods. But these neighbors treated her very sincerely. When she was most hesitant and helpless, they not only helped her, but also taught her many things.
In the face of everyone's reluctance, she could only laugh with tears in her eyes and tell a lie. If there is a chance in the future, she will come back...
…
The next day, King Jing left East Yulin Lane with Xiaohua and two children.
The small courtyard where Xiaohua once lived was not sold. What Xiaohua said to others was that if you had a chance, you might come back to see it.
Although there is no certainty, but she thinks that after so many years of life, maybe there is still a chance, right
The small courtyard with the Tao family's sister was empty, as well as the Zhao family. They left silently, and the residents of East Yulin Lane had guessed whether Zhao Da was chasing after the sister of Tao's sister. After all, the matter between the two was about to end.
Xiaohua and the others caused a commotion in East Yulin Lane, and then left gracefully. And the life of East Yulin Lane is still going on with the sunrise and sunset.
The author has something to say: ps: I feel that the palace is not as good as Dongyulin Lane, it may be because of the mentality of the common people, and I feel that this kind of life is beautiful. Of course, this kind of day must be boring, ⊙﹏⊙ sweat, the sense of substitution is too strong, everyone treats me as nonsense.
