Having said that, she couldn't hide the full of love in her eyes. After Xie Ruzhuo said a few more nice words, he finally stood up, nodded Xie Ruzhuo's forehead, and went to the small kitchen.

The child's sleepiness came and went quickly, but within two quarters of an hour, Xie Huailin woke up. It happened that his nanny also came to look for him. Xie Huailin said goodbye to Xie Ruzhuo sleepily. The nanny thanked her again and again, and then the two left.

Xie Ruzhuo was the only one left in the room for a while.

A girl walked in from the outside with tea. It was the sunset, and the sun was blooming with its last glory like an old man in his twilight. When the light shines on Xie Ruzhuo's face, there is a somewhat strange sense of fusion.

Hong Rui bowed respectfully and said, "Fourth Miss, the tea is cold. I'll give you another cup." After saying that, seeing that Xie Ruzhuo had no objection, she took the tea cup from Xie Ruzhuo's hand, and another one arrived. New tea.

Only then did Xie Ruzhuo's thoughts come back from his wandering mind. Seeing a strange girl in front of him, he asked doubtfully, "Where's Qianbi?"

"Sister Qianbi has gone to the small kitchen to help the third lady. Call the slave to come over and give you some tea."

Seeing that her answer was measured, Xie Ruzhuo nodded and ignored her.

Hong Rui was a clever man. Seeing that his master was thinking about something, he changed the tea and then smiled and saluted and got ready to go. But he was stopped by Xie Ruzhuo.

"Your name is Hongrui, right?"

Hearing this, Hongrui turned around and responded "Yes" with a little anxiety.

Xie Ruzhuo said "Hmm" and said, "From now on, you can take Qing Tao's position and stay in my room to serve me. By the way, go and tell Qing Tao who is kneeling outside to go back to the Female Red Courtyard. No need." came back."

Hongrui was half surprised and seventy percent happy, but finally turned into a full smile, thanked Xie Ruzhuo, and then walked out the door.

Xie Ruzhuo held a new cup of tea and then continued the interrupted train of thought. When she was recuperating in the palace, she was faced with unfamiliar faces, and Qianbi was the only one around her, so many things were deliberately ignored by her.

However, once she returned to Xie's house, she discovered that many of the people she thought were good people in her previous life were actually beasts that pushed her into the abyss step by step!

For example, green peach.

When selecting a maid in his previous life, Xie Ruzhuo originally fell in love with Hongrui, but because of Qingtao's habit of saying flattering words, he gave up Hongrui and chose Qingtao. Later, Qing Tao was even more valued by him, and even after he got married, he took her with him!

But what did Qingtao do? He sowed discord before getting married, and after getting married, he seduced Xiao Junhan and climbed into his bed! On the surface, he is still acting coy, but in fact, many of his personal secrets were leaked by Qing Tao! Xie Ruzhuo hadn't thought of this before, but now that she saw Hongrui and recalled it carefully, she discovered so much filth, how could she not be so filled with hatred!

However, she can't punish Qing Tao arbitrarily now. Since she is reborn, she must carefully plan every step. One day…

Suddenly, the voice of a parrot was heard outside the door, and then there was a steady and powerful sound of footsteps coming from far away. Then, the carved wooden door was pushed open from the outside.

Xie Ruzhuo was immersed in her thoughts when she was suddenly shocked by the sound of footsteps. When she looked back, the expression on her face suddenly froze.

After her rebirth, she imagined seeing him countless times. But every time she thought of that face, she couldn't help but fill her eyes with tears, and then she didn't dare to think about it anymore.

If we were to say that the person she felt most sorry for in this world, Xie Ruzhuo, was the person in front of her, the eldest son and grandson of the Xie family—Xie Huainan!

When I last saw him, his military uniform could not hide the vicissitudes of life on his face, and his brows were full of shock and anger. When Shen Jingci ordered the arrow to be released, Xie Huainan's eyes were always fixed on her body. He put his own life aside, but he was afraid that his little sister would be wronged in the slightest!

This is her only biological brother in the world. Although he is the eldest brother, he treats her like a father!

But what did Xie Ruzhuo do? For one Xiao Junhan, it was not enough to sacrifice the entire Xie family. He even said such words when Xie Huainan was trying to persuade her!

"If you object, then you don't have to be my brother! After all, I am determined to follow him. Besides, there are many filial sons and grandsons in the Xie family. They may not have to count on you, Xie Huainan, to shine in the future!"

Xie Huainan thought that he was young and repeatedly gave in to him, but he was deceived by lard and used poisonous tricks. In the end, he was forced to stay in Xie's family and left Xie's family angrily. He went to the country thousands of miles away. military camp.

We met again several years later. After such a long separation, when we met again, his eyes were as doting as before. Even when his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows, he did not forget to give him one last smile.

When Xie Huainan's lips opened and closed silently, she clearly saw him and said: Live!

The last rays of the setting sun were swallowed up by the night, and the sky darkened instantly. Xie Huainan stood outside the bead curtain outside, only a few steps away from him. After all, he had gone back a few years, and his face still had the unique vigor and vitality of a young man. Even though he had been tired for a few days, his eyes were still as clear as water.

The cup Xie Ruzhuo was holding suddenly fell to the ground.

The spilled tea splashed all over the floor. Xie Ruzhuo did not dodge, but stared blankly at the man in front of him. His eyes were extremely sour, but he could not even shed a single tear.

After Xie Huainan returned from duty, he heard that Xie Ruzhuo had been moved back to the mansion to recuperate. He didn't care about his hard work in the past few days and immediately came to Tingfeng Courtyard.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the house, he saw such a scene.

When he saw his little sister standing there, her eyes filled with tears, mixed with overwhelming regret and helplessness, his heart suddenly tightened.

"Zhuo'er, what's wrong with you?" As he said this, Xie Huainan strode over.

The young man's face was close in front of him, and his worried words rang in his ears, but Xie Ruzhuo seemed to have fallen into a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from. He couldn't help it anymore, and cried loudly with a "wow" sound.

The woman's slightly childish cry resounded throughout the room. As she cried, she involuntarily grabbed Xie Huainan's clothes with such force that she almost tore off his clothes.

Xie Huainan just thought that she was frightened in the hunting ground. He couldn't help but feel distressed. He no longer cared about the defense of men and women. He held her in his arms and carefully comforted her, "Zhuo'er, be good, don't cry. Big brother knows that you are hurt." I feel wronged.”

Since Xie Ruzhuo was ten years old, he has never hugged the girl in front of him. One is because of the differences between men and women, and the other is that the girl is getting older and there is an inexplicable gap between her and him. Now that she was relying on herself, when Xie Huainan felt distressed, she felt a little warmer. After all, it was her sister who had been wronged, so she still relied on him.

Xie Ruzhuo didn't know what he was thinking. The scene on the tower was too exciting for her. She could only feel that everything now was not a dream, but a reality! She could only grasp the person in front of her tightly.

"Brother, brother..." I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, the Xie family would not die, and neither would you!

Xie Huainan responded hurriedly, patting her back gently and soothing in a soft voice, "I'm here, I'm here, Zhuo'er, don't be afraid, everything is over." Seeing Xie Ruzhuo crying, she was out of breath. Frustrated, Xie Huainan also blamed himself more and more. If he hadn't been guarding the emperor that day, Xie Ruzhuo wouldn't have suffered what he did!

Although he knew that Xie Ruzhuo ran in by himself, as the eldest brother, after the accident, he could not blame her as a child. These days, he was almost drowning in regret.

The tears found an outlet like a flood, and Xie Ruzhuo's mind regained some clarity. Her eldest brother's embrace was still as generous and reassuring as ever, which calmed her confused heart a little.

And the voice above her head was still coaxing softly, "How about when Zhuo'er gets well, big brother will take you shopping? In a few days, it will be August 15th, and the lights will be bright at night. Cars are flowing like water and horses are like dragons, and all kinds of snacks and refreshments are lined up on the street. Can big brother take you to have a good meal?"

Xie Ruzhuo raised his tearful eyes, sobbed a few times, and asked, "Seriously?"

Seeing her like this, Xie Huainan felt love and pity for her. He rubbed her black hair and said with a smile, "Brother, how have I ever lied to you?"

After hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo stopped crying and showed a smile.

She had just been so overwhelmed by the past that she had thrown all her sense out of her mind. Now she suddenly woke up and felt a little embarrassed.

But she had the intention to leave Xie Huainan's arms, but after taking a step back, her body went limp and she almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Xie Huainan had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he caught her sliding body in time. He carried her to the bed and covered her with a quilt. Fang said, "You are seriously injured. Just lie down for the next few days. Don't go to the ground if you have nothing to do." do you know?"

Xie Ruzhuo had not heard such gentle soothing words from him for a long time, and he was filled with emotions. I hate myself for being ignorant in the past and letting down so many people. She was also grateful that she had been reborn and finally had the opportunity to change her ways and start over.

Thinking about it, she responded with a smile, and then said, "Then when I get better, will my brother's words still count?" She was naturally referring to going shopping with him. Xie Ruzhuo didn't care where she was going, all she cared about was spending time with her relatives.

Seeing that she was getting better, Xie Huainan was thinking about this and couldn't help but laugh, "Take good care of her. When you get better, I will take you to have fun in not just one place, but ten places!"

Just as he was talking, he heard a woman's voice coming from outside the door, "Brother is biased and promised this girl some fun place. Are you going to take her there alone?"

It was Xie Ruyue who made the snacks.

Hearing this, Xie Huainan immediately smiled and sighed, "Look, just after coaxing this one, another jealous one comes. Have I ever left you? Every time I take your sister to play, I always take you with me?"

Xie Ruyue put the snacks on the small table aside, curled her lips and said, "I didn't have it before, but I'm sure it won't happen in the future. Maybe you won't bring me with you next time." After saying that, she started to laugh. .

After hearing this, Xie Huainan immediately lamented, "I can't defeat you. You are always sharp-tongued. How about I surrender?"

"Brother, what I said is that the sharp-tongued one lying on the bed is not only good at talking, but also good at doing things. No, now he can even block someone's knife!" Xie Ruyue saw Xie Ruzhuo and lay back on the bed, He thought it was because her wound hurt again, and the anger that had been suppressed before started to return.
