Xiao Heng stayed in the room for a full quarter of an hour before coming out.
Just now, he deliberately gave Gu Jiao an excuse to leave, not that Gu Jiao really wanted to see the couplet.
Sure enough, he went to the next door and Gu Jiao sat there motionless.
That quiet look makes people look distressed.
Gu Jiao heard his push on the door, got up and looked at him with a calm tone but worried eyes: "How's the clearance?"
Xiao Heng entered the room and put the empty bottle of gold sore medicine on the table.
The answer is already obvious.
With such a large bottle, their whole family couldn't finish cleaning it in a year, which shows how many injuries there are on Qingkong's body.
Gu Jiao pressed her forehead against his tight chest.
He raised his slender jade-like hand and gently rubbed her head.
He always comforted her like this when she was down.
Xiao Heng said softly: "Don't be too sad, I looked carefully, and the wounds are all healed."
He was able to explain to her calmly now, but he was almost unable to hold back several times in the room just now.
Fortunately, his embarrassed appearance was not seen by Jiaojiao, otherwise he would be embarrassed to see others in the future.
She whispered: "He had acne before, and I didn't want him to stay even with a small acne pit, so I wrapped his little hands. He sneaked out to scratch the itch, and was caught by Gu Changqing."
Now that he has so many scars on his body, how painful her heart must be.
"Also, he would tell me even if he smashed a walnut and his finger hurt."
Xiao Heng didn't know how to comfort her.
Boys are like this. They always stick to their mothers when they are young, but as they grow up, some words and things can only be known by their father.
Probably, this is the price of growth.
It is the child's protection of the mother.
…
Dinner was served on Shangguan Yan's side.
Because Xiao Cong had just vomited and her body had not recovered yet, someone had to hold her, and Xiao Heng had already hugged Xiao Yan and Xiao Xiao Xuan, so Gu Jiao went to hug Xiao Cong.
But how could Xuanyuanxi make Jiaojiao so tired
He must do the job of holding a child!
Xuanyuan Xi decisively took Xiao Cong over again.
Xiao Cong sat in his arms with a dark face: Uncle, you can be a person!
Tonight is the New Year's Eve dinner, An Guogong was invited to the palace, and Feng Wuxiu also came.
Feng Wuxiu is quite fascinated, why does the palace always call him or the two of them at the New Year's Eve dinner
However, the food made by the royal chef is delicious, and he is also willing to come.
Xuanyuanqi, Liaochen and Daoist Qingfeng were all stationed at the border gates and could not return to Beijing.
At dinner, Xuanyuan Xi finally found out about the fact that he was made a marquis. To be honest, he didn't really care about the official position. He didn't go to war to be an official. Happy!
He took a pair of chopsticks and green vegetables, and said in a tone of voice: "Oh, some people are only 19-year-old high school champions, but some people are already Marquis at thirteen years old!"
Except for Xiao Yan and Xiao Xiao Xuan who didn't understand, the rest of the people at the table twitched at the corners of their mouths, familiar formula, familiar taste, that stinky little monk came back.
But what exactly is Versailles
Nineteen-year-old high school champion? How do you let other champions live
Also, do I want to remind you that your bad brother-in-law was a juvenile sacrifice to the Imperial College Prison at the age of thirteen
The ceiling of the civil and military is taken off by the two of you.
Xuanyuan Xi raised his chin and hummed: "I don't care, I'm better than the bad brother-in-law anyway!"
Xiao Heng gave him a piece of fish that had been tickled: "Eat yours."
Xuanyuan Xi has been less dizzy since he was ten years old. At first, he could only drink a little broth, and gradually he could eat a little fish and shrimp, and now he can also eat a little lean meat.
Just not too much.
Xuanyuan Xi hummed and ate happily.
This time, he was a carefree child again.
New Year's Eve is also the birthdays of Xiao Heng and Xuanyuan Xi. The imperial kitchen cooked longevity noodles for the two, and Xuanyuan Xi sucked it clean in one breath.
He had never been hungry at home, and went to the battlefield to starve every day for three days, which made everything he eat tasted especially delicious afterwards.
The adults at the table looked at him like this and couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
An Guogong smiled and said, "I almost forgot my present."
Xuanyuan Xi took his head out of the bowl of noodles: "Well, there are still gifts? For me?"
An Guogong smiled: "You and A-Heng have both."
Most of the gifts everyone gave to Xiao Heng were books, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, while the gifts to Xuanyuan Xi were more varied.
Gu Jiao gave him a newly made nine-section whip, and on the whip, Gu Xiaoshun designed a hidden weapon, which could be used to attack, defend or sneak attack.
Xuanyuan Xi went outside to play twice on the spot. The weight and length were just right, and the flexibility was perfect. He liked it very much.
He pinned the whip to his waist, returned to his seat, and asked Xiao Heng, "Brother-in-law, what did you give me?"
Xiao Heng said lightly: "No, I didn't know you were coming back."
As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden sound of breaking the sky outside the hall, and then, a golden fireworks burst into the endless sky.
"fireworks!"
Xuanyuan Xi opened his eyes wide and flashed out!
Xiao Yan panicked: "I want to see it too! I want to see it too! I want to see it too!"
The doors and windows are wide open, the location of the reunion dinner is excellent, and the angle of the fireworks has been carefully calculated, and you can also watch a fireworks feast while sitting.
But the fireworks could not stand, and everyone went to the small garden outside the hall.
The brilliant golden fireworks bloomed again and again, the whole night sky was lit up, and the whole palace witnessed this flourishing fireworks.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Xiao Yan was so excited that she cried out, "So beautiful! So beautiful!"
The quiet little beautiful man Xiao Cong rarely felt that the fireworks tonight were beautiful.
Xiao Xuan, who was only two years old, was frightened by the sound of the explosion and went straight into Shangguan Yan's arms.
A total of thirteen rounds of fireworks.
Xuanyuan Xi looked up at the sky and looked at Hua Cai, reluctant to blink.
Gu Jiao came to him at some point, and looked at the gorgeous fireworks overhead, and said softly, "Your brother-in-law made a special trip for you."
"Huh?" He hesitated.
Gu Jiao said, "Last year, when you came back from Liang Guo, didn't you say that Liang Guo's fireworks were beautiful? Your brother-in-law made them for you and planned to show them to you on your twelfth birthday, but you went to join the army."
Xiao Heng didn't say anything, but kept in mind that Clearance was a year older, and he made more fireworks.
Just wait for the empty space to come back safely.
Gu Jiao bent her lips and looked at him: "Your brother-in-law loves you very much."
Just like loving your eldest son, it is both strict and critical, but if you want stars, I will not hesitate to hold the whole galaxy to you.
Xuanyuan Xipa tugged at her little red ears, glanced at the bad brother-in-law who was watching the fireworks not far away, and whispered, "Jiaojiao loves me the most!"
…
After watching the fireworks, Shangguan Qing took the sweet-scented osmanthus brewed by the court sommelier.
Xuanyuan Xi drank alcohol for the first time in his life.
Well, it was poured by Shangguan Qing.
He perfectly inherited Gu Jiao's drinking capacity, and he was drunk with just one cup!
Then he also inherited Gu Jiao's wine perfectly.
I saw him holding the jug in one hand, staggering on the grass in the small garden, taking a deep breath and singing.
"...How about sing and wearing the words~~ I am all my bones and ashes~ Duckweed in troubled times~ Endure the beacon fire to burn the mountains and rivers~ Wei Bei has not dared to forget about the country~ Even if no one knows me~"
He raised Fan Er with his right hand, turned his body, and began to play: "People pass by under the stage~ I can't see the old colors~ People on stage sing~ A heartbreak parting song~ Love words are hard to fall into ink~ She must be reconciled with blood~ The curtain rises ~ the curtain ends ~ it's finally a guest~"
The young man is tall and thin, his face is as handsome as jade, with a slight intoxication and confusion after being drunk, his cheeks are slightly flushed, and his singing voice is soul-stirring, indescribably handsome and unrestrained.
Such a young man is fascinating.
The hearts of the palace ladies were pounding, and they all blushed unconsciously.
Shangguan Qing was also drunk, and while listening, he tapped on his lap.
After finishing the song, he raised the jug and shouted, "Okay!"
Gu Jiao sat beside Xiao Heng, raised her cheeks and looked at the young man who looked like an immortal, and smiled: "It's so beautiful."
Xiao Heng: "..."
Daughter-in-law, look at me.
…
Xuanyuan Xi took two more sips, and was so drunk that Xiao Heng came over and carried him back.
"I'll… go!" He waved back.
Xiao Heng looked at him angrily and funny: "Take two steps and show me."
Xuanyuan Xi: "..."
Xiao Heng carried him on his back.
Xuanyuan Xi lay on his back, pinched his shoulder, and muttered, "Bad brother-in-law... how do I think... you've become smaller..."
"You have grown up!"
How could he be so small
An eight-year-old child and a thirteen-year-old child, lying on the same back, naturally feel different.
Xuanyuan Xi was drunk and did not forget to ask worriedly: "You, can you move me on your back?"
Xiao Heng carried him to the direction of the bedroom: "I'm only twenty-seven, so young, why can't I carry you, a thirteen-year-old little boy?"
"Oh." Xuanyuanxi buried his cheek on his shoulder and said vaguely, "Then you promise me...you don't get old...you and Jiaojiao...neither are allowed to get old..."
Xiao Heng smiled: "Okay, not old."
Xuanyuan Xi hugged Xiao Heng's neck and muttered drunkenly, "It doesn't matter if you're old..."
You raise me young, and I raise you old.
