He only stuck out a small round head.
The man is too short, only a little higher than the threshold.
He raised his head with great difficulty, the child's head was heavy, and this movement made his shaky little body teeter.
Finally, he fell down.
However, he did not fall to the ground, but was caught in time by a soft plain hand.
Gu Jiao bent down and gently hugged him with both hands.
Looking at the face that was almost carved in the same mold as Gu Yan, Gu Jiao let out a wow in amazement.
This small nose, small mouth, and small face are simply a small version of Gu Yan.
Human cubs are too cute!
Want to pinch!
The cub is very fragile, Gu Jiao resisted the urge to pinch her face, and just poked his little face with her index finger.
Take a moment.
So soft that her heart melted.
"Remember me?" Gu Jiao asked him with a smile.
Gu Xiaobao looked at Gu Jiao blankly, as if he didn't remember.
Gu Jiao nodded: "That's right, you were only five months old when I left, and in a blink of an eye, you were over a year old."
Gu Xiaobao couldn't understand what she was talking about, her eyes were round and big, dripping.
Gu Jiao turned her head to Xuanyuan Qi and Liao Chen and said, "My brother, Gu Xiaobao."
"Ouch-"
At the end of the corridor, Grandma Zhou's son was carrying several bags of rice to the house, and one of the bags fell.
"I'll take a look." Xiao Heng said to Gu Jiao.
"Yeah." Gu Jiao nodded.
"Little Treasure, Little Treasure—"
Yao's call came from down the corridor.
When Gu Xiaobao heard her mother's voice, she twisted her body and was about to get down from Gu Jiao's arms.
Gu Jiao was worried that if he was in a hurry, he would fall while walking, so she hugged him and pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
Yao shi saw her daughter returning home at a glance. She was wearing a long Tsing Yi dress. She had a jade-like posture. Her complexion was darker than before.
In Yao's eyes, her daughter is always the most beautiful.
She looked at her daughter who hadn't seen each other for more than a year, and the tip of her nose suddenly soured with excitement.
"Mother, mother."
Gu Xiaobao stretched out his little hand towards her.
She turned her back and wiped her red eyes, walked towards Gu Jiao with a smile, and took Gu Xiaobao over: "When did you come back..."
When did she arrive at Bishui Hutong
She had learned a little about Gu Jiao's affairs in the State of Yan from Xiao Heng and Gu Yan, and also knew that she was going to return to Beijing with the envoys of the State of Yan today.
It's just that she heard that there was a banquet in the palace, and thought that Gu Jiao would enter the palace first, and then go home after the banquet was over.
Gu Jiao said, "As soon as I arrived, I knocked on the door and Xiaobao came out."
Yao shi looked at her son with a funny look: "You are too lazy to go out on weekdays. What happened today? Did you know that it was my elder sister who came back? I went to open the door for my elder sister? Did you call my elder sister?"
Gu Xiaobao plunged into Yao's arms.
Yao Shi couldn't hold back, smiled, and said to Gu Jiao, "He's shy."
Gu Jiao poked at his pouty little butt.
Gu Xiaobao's little face was still buried in Yao's arms, he raised his little hand, reached behind his own little butt, and clumsily took Gu Jiao's fingers.
Gu Jiao laughed.
"By the way, I brought two guests here." After poking enough, Gu Jiao invited Xuanyuanqi and Liaochen to the hospital, and said to Yao, "Marshal Xuanyuan of Yan State, Jingkong's uncle, this is him. Son Xuanyuan Shizi, clear... uncle."
After that, she introduced Yao Shi to the two of them, "This is..."
She paused.
Yao shi glanced at her, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said to the two of them in a warm voice, "I am Jiaojiao's mother."
"Mrs. Gu." The father and son greeted her with hand in hand.
While they were talking, the Xuanyuan family's carriage also arrived, and the servants carried a few boxes from the carriage as a gift for their door-to-door meeting.
"It's all my own, so I don't need to see outsiders like this," Yao shi said.
"Be careful, madam please accept it." Lu Chen said.
Gu Jiao supported Yao Shi's arm and said softly, "Take it."
The daughter said so, Yao Shi had to accept it.
She looked at the father and son with a cheerful look: "You are here to see Qingkong, right? Jingkong, Yan'er and Xiaoshun went to the orchard to pick fruit. They've been there for a while. They should be back soon. Let's have a cup of tea in the house."
The father and son were more respectful than obeying their orders, and entered the house with Yao Shi.
"Huh? You came from the city gate, have you met A-Heng?" Yao Shi asked Gu Jiao.
After the dust, why not meet it? I also sprinkled a bowl full of dog food, and my stomach is still propped up at the moment.
Gu Jiao said, "We came back together. He went to Grandma Zhou's house to help."
Yao Shi was pleased: "That's good, that's good."
Momma Fang is not here today, and Yuyaer went to buy spices.
Yao Shi couldn't see the child alone, so he invited a maid and a cook. The cook was cooking in the kitchen, and the maid was called Yuanyang.
"Yuanyang has been here for a year, and her hands and feet are very quick." Yao shi said to Yuanyang, "Pour tea for the eldest lady and the guests."
When Yuanyang heard the title, she understood Gu Jiao's identity and hurriedly brewed tea.
Gu Xiaobao was still hiding in Yao's arms, but he would secretly turn his head to look at Gu Jiao from time to time. If he found that Gu Jiao was also looking at him, he would turn his head away and bury himself in Yao's arms again.
It was dark outside, and Yao shi could not see the faces of the two of them clearly. There were oil lamps in the room.
Yao shi's eyes fell on Chen's face, and suddenly he whispered in surprise: "I have seen you."
Liechen looked at her unexpectedly: "Oh?"
Yao Shi didn't intend to offend, but in order to verify whether she was dazzled, she took another look, and then said firmly: "Yes, I did see it, it was in the temple near Qingquan Village, you are from the temple. The monk... I remember... the presiding abbot... also called your junior brother..."
Liao Chen switched to the monk mode for a second, performed a Buddha salute with one hand, and said indifferently: "Amitabha, it turns out that Shizhu Yao has seen a poor monk."
Yao shi was shocked and didn't understand what was going on? Is it the prince of Yan Kingdom or the monk of the temple
After Xiao Heng and Gu Yan returned home, they told Yao Shi a lot about the experience of the country of Yan, but they mainly focused on Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao explained: "This matter is a long story. The son of Xuanyuan is both Jing Kong's uncle and Jing Kong's master. They both became monks in that temple back then."
Yao Shi had an epiphany: "So that's what happened."
The dignified son of Shangguo actually went down to become a monk. There must have been a lot of things happening. Yao shi knew it in his heart, but he didn't get to the bottom of it on such an occasion.
The four of them didn't sit for a long time, and the three little men came back with baskets.
"Jiaojiao!"
Xiao Jingkong was the first to cross the threshold, and he saw Gu Jiao in the main room at a glance.
Carrying the small basket, he ran over and threw himself into Gu Jiao's arms: "Jiaojiao Jiaojiao! You're finally back! I miss you so much!"
Xuanyuan Qi sat diagonally opposite Gu Jiao, and when he called out Jiao Jiao for the first time from Xiao Jingkong, he looked at him.
Is this the sixth child
The sound is crisp, so nice.
Xuanyuan Qi was like a dead tree suddenly rejuvenated, staring at the small clear space with shining eyes.
There was only Gu Jiao in Xiao Jingkong's eyes, and he didn't notice him, nor did he notice the dust on the side.
The corner of his mouth twitched.
Little stinky monk, after all I've been your master for so long, you can't even see me
"Jiaojiao, did you miss me?" Xiao Jingkong said coquettishly.
"I miss you." Gu Jiao said.
Xiao Jingkong then raised his head slightly with satisfaction, and said hello to Yao Shi and Gu Xiaobao on the side: "Master Yao, Xiaobao."
At this time, Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan also entered the room.
"elder sister!"
"sister!"
The two spoke almost in unison, as if they did not expect to see Gu Jiao at home.
The two pinched each other, the pain was swish, not in a dream, Jiaojiao really came back!
Unlike the little monks, they noticed the guests in the house.
Yao Shi smiled and introduced to them: "Close Kong's great-uncle, Grand Marshal Xuanyuan, another... The son of the Grand Marshal's family, you can call him Prince Xuanyuan."
The two had never seen Chen Chen in Yan Kingdom, let alone Xuanyuan Qi at the border.
But the Xuanyuan family knew that even the Xuanyuan family's grand marshal had come to their house
The two looked at Xuanyuan Qi who was sitting there like a hill, as if feeling the incomparable aura of gold and iron horse on the other side!
Gu Yan: "Wow!"
Gu Xiaoshun: "Wow!"
Gu Xiaobao learned his tongue: "Wow!"
"King Kong, your master is here." Gu Jiao reminded Xiao Jingkong, who was lying in his arms and didn't want to wake up.
"My master didn't come." Xiao Jingkong pouted and said without looking back, "He is so lazy, how could he come?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a slender hand reached out, lifted him up, and said dangerously, "Who are you calling lazy?"
Gu Xiaobao: "lazy."
Xiao Jingkong looked at Chen Chen and rolled his eyes: "Xiaobao is lazy."
Gu Xiaobao: "Xiaobao is lazy..."
After learning the tongue, he waved his hand after realizing it, and seriously emphasized, "Xiaobao is not lazy."
