Song Jianing accompanied two princes and a princess to the palace to stay in the living room.

Guo Xiao didn't go in and wait. He stood alone in the courtyard, standing tall and straight like a zhilan and jade tree. , I have seen His Royal Highness King Shou." Neither humble nor arrogant, respectful and courteous.

The King of Chu said with a smile, "The prince is exempt from the ceremony, and is here to pick up the four girls?"

Guo Xiao stood up straight, looked at his sister who was standing on the side of Princess Chu, and smiled lightly: "My father has just returned to Beijing, and now he is in the palace, and he may return to the palace at any time. My mother asked me to pick up my sister. It's rude. please forgive me, princess.”

Song Jianing listened and repeated in surprise, "Father is back?"

Guo Boyan, the stepfather, treats her very well, and treats her as if he has already come out. The Guo family and his son have gone on an expedition for a year. Song Jianing has not thought about Guo Xiao, but still misses his stepfather. The main reason is that his mother's thoughts are almost written on his face. will have fun.

Guo Xiao nodded at her.

Song Jianing immediately returned to his heart like an arrow, and looked at Feng Zheng embarrassedly. He had promised to eat here before leaving.

The family of Duke Wei's mansion was reunited. Of course, Feng Zheng could understand Song Jianing's current mood. He smiled and said, "Master Guo served the country, and today has finally triumphed. Sister Jia Ning, hurry up and come back to talk with me another day."

Song Jianing snorted, winked at Guo Xiao, and the siblings stood together and said goodbye to the two kings and one concubine at the same time.

There is a difference in honor and inferiority. Although Feng Zheng really wanted to give it away, she now represents the decency of the King of Chu, so she had to order a big maid to give it away. The two brothers and sisters walked out side by side, the man was tall and straight, the girl was petite and exquisite, Zhao Heng watched silently, the bright spring light fell on his face, and he squinted slightly.

At the main entrance of the palace, Song Jianing walked out briskly, the driver had already set up the wooden bench, Song Jianing looked at the wooden bench, but only Guo Xiao was in the corner of his eye. Song Jianing pursed his lower lip, suddenly remembered something, slowed down, turned and asked Shuang'er who was a few steps behind, "Has the princess ever sent someone to give you the recipe for peony cake?"

Shuang'er naturally walked up to the master, shook his head and said, "The princess should be ready to give it to the girl after the banquet is over..."

Song Jianing suddenly realized, and continued to walk forward. Shuang'er subconsciously followed, and supported his girl's soft little hand. The moment she held that hand, Shuang'er had an inexplicable feeling of being stared at. She turned around blankly, only to see Shi Zi walking towards the tall horse next to her. Shuang'er blinked, forgetting the strangeness just now.

Song Jianing got into the carriage and listened to Guo Xiao's low voice instructing the driver to set off. She looked at her hand and breathed a sigh of relief. Both of them are grown up, and Guo Xiao is a lustful person. Even though he only regards her as his younger sister, Song Jianing still makes up his mind to be careful and careful, and try his best to avoid any physical contact with Guo Xiao.

The wheels rolled, and soon stopped in front of Duke Wei's mansion. As soon as the carriage stopped, Song Jianing immediately stuck his head out. Seeing Shuang'er, he hurried to prepare. On the back of the horse a few steps behind, Guo Xiao looked at the dutiful Shuang'er, frowned imperceptibly, and then turned over and dismounted. When Song Jianing stood firm, Guo Xiao deliberately slowed down, walked side by side with her, and asked casually as he walked in: "The princess invited you and the prince at the same time?"

Song Jianing truthfully denied: "No, I went to the palace first. Later, His Royal Highness King Shou learned that the princess was losing her appetite and sent a plate of cherries over there."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Guo Xiao's mouth, sister-in-law couldn't eat anything, what kind of hospitality did the uncle offer? Early or late, but I chose to give it when my stepsister went, obviously with ulterior motives. Guo Xiao wanted to remind his stepsister, but remembering that the last time his stepsister had been sulking with him for a long time because he suspected King Shou, he didn't even look at him when they met, and Guo Xiao carefully kept his mouth shut.

"Is the cherries ripe?" Guo Xiao picked a topic that his stepsister liked.

Song Jianing couldn't help laughing. Looking at Mrs. Tai and others who had gathered early in the front hall to wait for her stepfather's return, she said without deep thought, "It should be, maybe I don't know much."

Guo Xiao snorted, looked straight ahead, and said in a low voice, "Okay, let me ask people to pay attention to the market. As soon as the cherries come out, I will buy two baskets. Tingfang also likes to eat them."

He bought it for his family, so Song Jianing just smiled and said no thanks.

While talking, the two brothers and sisters had already walked to the front of the main room, Guo Xiao sat on the side of the twins, and Song Jianing walked around behind her mother and chatted with the female relatives. In the palace, Emperor Xuande arranged for Guo Boyan and other meritorious generals to pick up the dust at night, and told them to go back to their respective homes in the noon. Guo Boyan, wearing the armor of the coach, strode out of the palace. Going out of the palace gate and stepping on the horse, Guo Boyan galloped all the way, and in the blink of an eye he had reached the door of his house, and he suddenly restrained the reins, the horse raised its front hooves high, and let out a neigh that was forced to stop.

Everyone in the hall was shocked, and the surprise was followed by joy.

The twins and Shang Ge'er ran out first, followed by Song Jianing and Guo Jia Sanfang. Mrs. Tai misses her son no less than the children, but she is an old lady, she can't run and can't run anymore, she just walks slowly with a smile. Mrs. Lin and the second wife stood on either side to support their mother-in-law. The third lady and Guo Xiao walked on the outermost side, and Guo Xiao held Brother Mao who was anxiously stretching his neck out for Mrs. Lin.

In the courtyard, Guo Boyan was surrounded by his daughters, nephews and nieces. They are all from the Guo family. The girls are like flowers and jade, and they are more beautiful every year. The nephews have grown taller and stronger. The younger nephew, Shang Geer, has changed the most. Guo Boyan is in a good mood. He picked up the youngest brother Shang and touched his head. , turned around and saw the second wave of relatives.

Guo Boyan's eyes suddenly fell on Lin Shi.

The newlyweds have been missing for a year, and they are people who have already put them in their hearts. When they heard the news that Guo Boyan was about to return to the house, Lin was furious and relieved. Standing in front of the wardrobe, he was worried. Usually, he felt that he made too many clothes every season. It's not over, but now I hate that I have too few clothes, and none of them agree with my heart. After picking and choosing, and worried about being teased by her mother-in-law, Lin only chose a water-green robe with a plain white dress. Even the second and third ladies were more festive than her.

But it was colorful, and Guo Boyan only saw her watery green, elegant and refined like a fairy grass, just like when Jiangnan first met, like the fairy in his dream, he was told to worry about her, and he had to think about it thousands of times every night. Fortunately, he is already forty, and he is no longer as stunned as his son. Guo Boyan recovered in time, put down Brother Shang and rushed to the front of Mrs. Tai, and knelt down.

A man who stands upright in the sky, only kneels to the emperor of heaven and earth, and only kneels to his parents.

Mrs. Lin and the two concubines hurriedly avoided to the sides. Mrs. Tai was quite calm just now. Seeing that her son was kneeling again every time he returned from a long distance, her tears welled up by herself, and she helped the eldest son with blurred vision. , trembling slightly, said: "It can be counted back. In a few days later, Brother Mao is about to marry a wife."

Song Jianing and the other juniors all laughed.

Only then did Guo Boyan think of his younger son. He turned his head and saw that Mao Ge'er was leaning on the eldest son's arms, looking at him ignorantly, his big eyes were his seed. Guo Boyan laughed, and regardless of whether his son answered or not, he stepped forward and snatched the boy over and kissed him fiercely.

Guo Boyan is majestic and mighty, and the armor is also unfamiliar to Brother Mao. He was afraid at first, but now he was stabbed again. Brother Mao looked at his mother who ignored him, pouted, and cried with a wow, and stretched out his hand to his mother aggrieved. . Mother and son are connected, Lin's eyes that were secretly clinging to her husband finally shifted to her son, and she came over without thinking, to take the crying son into her arms.

It's just that she already hugged Brother Mao, but his son's father refused to let go. Lin shi raised his head in doubt, Guo Boyan looked down at her, and the suppressed heat in his eyes was about to burn her to ashes. With just one look, Lin's whole body softened, and he no longer had the strength to hug his son, and he was about to step back with a blushing face.

Mrs. Tai saw it in her eyes and laughed in her heart, but she still coughed and coaxed Brother Mao: "This is Daddy, Brother Mao will call Daddy."

Brother Mao didn't call, so he still looked for his mother.

Only then did Mrs. Lin persuade softly, "Governor, give it to me."

He had already molested him once, but this time Guo Boyan honestly let go, but his fiery eyes were still chasing after his sweet wife. Lin Shi was embarrassed, deliberately stayed away, and entered the hall. When Guo Boyan was talking with Mrs. Tai and the others, she always lowered her head to coax Brother Mao, and the familiar eyes like fire swept over her from time to time, making her flustered.

After chatting for half an hour, before Madam Tai had said enough to her son, Guo Boyan tugged at the heavy armor on his body uncomfortably, and said to his mother with a wry smile: "Mother, this dress is tired, so, son first I'll take you back, and I'll go to accompany you when I change clothes."

Madam Tai scolded the old bastard in her heart! He obviously wanted to bring his daughter-in-law into the account early, but he fooled her with this!

But Mrs. Tai still nodded with her son, and said thoughtfully: "Forget it, see you sweating profusely, go take a breath first, and let Pingzhang send me."

Guo Boyan was thinking about his sleeping daughter-in-law, but he couldn't bear it for a moment. After coming out of Changxin Courtyard, the people from the three rooms left separately. On the big room side, Guo Boyan walked side by side with Mrs. Lin holding Mao Geer, who had already recognized his father. Tingfang stayed with Mrs. Tai, and Guo Xiao and Song Jianing followed.

One has memories of a previous life, one has never touched a woman in this life but his body is already mature, the invisible lust between his parents, Song Jianing felt it, and Guo Xiao also felt it. Song Jianing thought nothing of it, turned his head to look at the flowers and trees by the roadside. For the first time, Guo Xiao looked directly at his stepmother's slender back several times, and then secretly observed his stepsister walking beside him. Guo Xiao was unconsciously taken aback.

If he was the one who met his step-sisters first in his life, he would definitely take them to Beijing like his father did, but he would let them live in the Lin family, and when the stepsisters grew up, he would...

With the thought together, Guo Xiaoru was struck by lightning and suddenly woke up, sweating on his back.

What is he thinking about? That's a stepsister, how could he have thought like that

However, looking at his father who was quietly approaching his stepmother in front of him, and his stepmother shyly avoiding him, the fire in Guo Xiao's chest was burning uncontrollably.

He also thought that he wanted a beautiful and weak woman like his stepmother, and there was one beside him.
