auspicious time has come

Chapter 64 Stick to him more
Everyone in the Meng family knew that there was still a process of Jiji stopping people that day.

At that time, they had heard about Mrs. Qi's death case that was raging in the city, but as for the details, they didn't know much - before they looked at this matter from the perspective of bystanders, but now, this matter has become their family affair.

While Shan's face was moved, she couldn't help but feel that this pleasing little girl in front of her was really destined to be with their Meng family - maybe she wasn't the noble person destined by their Meng family!
Hey, it's just that her stupid son doesn't live up to it.

Let's talk about it now, there are so many ways to repay the favor, why did he kneel down and kowtow to a little girl!

Knock down this head, and the road will be narrowed!

——Can't he think about other things, such as no repayment for great kindness and great virtue, only death?

Seeing her son kneeling there with his blushing forehead, Shan felt that he didn't see it.

Seeing that everyone in the Meng family cast their gazes over and expressed their gratitude to herself, Jiji waved her hands again and again: "It's just an extra mouthful of injustice, it's not worth mentioning...!"

She is someone who can only use brute force. Speaking of it, it is her girl and Lord Xiao who will really save Mrs. Qi.

Seeing the attitude and eyes of the Meng family, especially the Shan family, towards Jiji, Hengyu's mood became complicated for a moment.

Gigi is influenced by her a lot, so she very much rejects many old and unfair existences.

But more people don't realize that it is an outdated and unfair thing—in this uncivilized world, they are born bound by established things, and how many people naturally know how to reflect or even resist ?

Therefore, she cannot say that the Meng family is at fault.

But she believes that since they are not from the same traveler, it should not be forced.

These thoughts were only for a moment, and Heng Yu's eyes quickly fell on Mrs. Wen and Qi Qing.

Today is a day to be happy.

There was a constant sound of emotion and happiness in the room, and sometimes laughter sounded.

This burst of laughter is particularly valuable to this small courtyard that has been silent for 20 years.

It is also like a ray of late but blazing dawn, dispelling the haze that has been covering the sky for a long time, and taking away all the gloomy colors hidden in the corners.

The coming of bad luck and good luck is always so unprepared-the former is like 20 years ago, and the latter is like today.

In the room, Hengyu said goodbye at the right time: "It's really late tonight, so I won't disturb Mrs. Wen's rest."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Qi Qing with a smile, and there seemed to be a hint of questioning in her eyes.

"I... I should go back too." Qi Qing still said nervously.

After being stunned for a moment, Shan asked with a smile: "Silly boy, this is your home, where do you want to go back?"

Qi Qing whispered: "I... still have some clothes to dry in the yard."

After all was quiet, laughter could not be suppressed one after another.

"Our sister Yuan is a diligent and thrifty housekeeper!" Father Meng tried not to mention those painful words, and said with a smile: "I think I will be a good hand in business in the future!"

Hearing the words "managing business", Heng Yu thought a little bit.

From Mrs. Meng in charge of the accounts, to Father Meng's current attitude——

It seems that the Meng family's coercion did not involve many common calculations...

So, is it just to continue the incense for the deceased brother and to support the eldest lady?

If so, then...

Hengyu subconsciously looked at the mother and daughter who had just met.

Mrs. Wen's eyes were full of smiles at this time, she held Qi Qing's hand and refused to let go, her tone was gentle and patient: "...Then, how about asking someone to dry your clothes?"

What children value is not necessarily the few old clothes, but the change of identity that has not yet been adapted to. These old clothes are a bridge between the old and the new.

Always be careful when crossing bridges.

Qi Qing seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally nodded slightly under Mrs. Wen's warm and understanding eyes.

Shan Shi then laughed: "Okay, okay, I will dry a lot of things for Sister Yuan and take them back!"

Hearing these coaxing words, Qi Qing couldn't help showing a smile, and then whispered: "I want to give Painter Ji a gift."

Mrs. Wen nodded with a smile: "It should be so."

Qi Qing sent Heng Yu out of the front hall, and walked slowly to the plum tree in the courtyard to talk.

Night Breeze seemed to have the coldness of waking someone up from a dream. In front of Heng Yu, Qi Qing no longer concealed the anxiety in her eyes: "Miss Ji...is all this true? Will they...will they admit their mistake?" gone?"

She still felt terribly unreal.

Heng Yu smiled and said, "Miss Wen is very careful, and she has been looking for her daughter for 20 years. I think it is impossible for her to admit her mistake."

Qi Qing twisted her fingers lightly, her voice was very low: "I really never thought about it, my surname is not Qi..."

Only now did she find out that her name is Meng Jiayuan.

"Does the lady want to stay? If I need to think about it again, I can discuss it with Mrs. Wen, and she will understand." Hengyu said proactively.

Although it is pitiful for the parents of the world, the word "recognize relatives" after many years has never only valued the wishes of one party.

Want to stay?

Qi Qing thought a lot in an instant.

This matter came suddenly, just now when she faced everyone in the Meng family, all she saw were pairs of eyes full of guilt...

But what did she have to complain about?
At the beginning, she was not abandoned, but lost accidentally.

The Meng family has been looking for her for so many years and has never given up. Just now, in Mrs. Wen's room, the heart-wrenching love for her can be seen almost everywhere...

On the contrary, she has no memory of her childhood experience and knows nothing about everything these years, so she has never experienced the pain and suffering. Even when she learned the truth at this time, she couldn't resent the memory of her. The "adoptive parents" who love and love.

Because of this state of mind, she felt a little unspeakably guilty towards Mrs. Wen who had been hurt for many years.

Tonight, she found her family back, but lost her family at the same time.

She thought that she really needed time to slowly accept and face all this——

Qi Qing slightly turned her head to look at the lit inner room.

What she needs is time, and Mrs. Wen needs her.

There is a feeling and bond between blood relatives——

At this time, there was a suppressed cough from the woman in the inner room.

"Miss Ji, I want to stay." Qi Qing's voice was very soft, but she lacked the initial hesitation.

Heng Yu then smiled: "Okay, then I'll come and see Mrs. Meng again."

Since she decided to stay, she would no longer be Qi Qing.

With tears in Meng Jiayuan's eyes, she bowed to the girl and said, "Thank you Miss Ji."

In the room, squinting her eyes and seeing the figure of her own girl turning back through the window, the mother-in-law turned her head, lowered her voice and said joyfully: "...Big lady, the girl is back indeed!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wen immediately leaned halfway on the couch, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed again, her expression becoming weaker and weaker.

Seeing that Heng Yu had finished speaking, Xiao Mu left the front hall.

The Erfang family sent Xiao Mu and Heng Yu outside the gate.

On the way, Jiji looked at the broken and blue forehead of the young man beside her, and wanted to laugh.

It's one thing to find it funny.

On the other hand, I am happy for him.

To be precise, I am happy for the entire Meng family and Mrs. Jiayuan.

Even though she has no fate with this fool, and there is such a trace of unwillingness in her heart, she has absolutely no hostility towards the Meng family - thinking of her Jiji, she has to be taught by the girl for many years, that is very reasonable!

As if aware of her gaze, Meng Dazhu turned his head to look at her, and pulled a big smile at her.

This idiot...

Jiji looked away with a wooden face.

Dazhu didn't look disappointed, on the contrary, there seemed to be some decision in his bright eyes.

Da Zhu didn't go back with his general, and General Xiao also issued a military order, telling him to stay at home for a few more days to arrange things.

After watching his general leave, Dazhu followed his parents and turned around to walk to the courtyard. The first thing he arranged was: "Father, let's send someone to send a message to Uncle Ping tomorrow morning, and bring Sister back quickly." Tell Uncle Ping the good news!"

Not long ago, Uncle Ping left Yingzhou to look for someone with a few portraits given by painter Ji.

Over the years, Uncle Ping was no less eager to get Sister back than them.

Father Meng nodded with a smile: "It's been so many years, I've never seen your Uncle Ping smile, maybe this time it will be an eye-opener!"

"Boss, I want to add something else..." The old servant Cai Shu who was following him opened his mouth seriously, with bruises on his forehead that were the same as the young master's.

"Oh?"

"The chair that Lord Hou sat in the Da Niangzi's Hall just now, the used teacup... Do you think we are going to offer it up?" Uncle Cai waited solemnly—the things that the Bodhisattva touched were stained. Buddha light!It is bound to be able to protect the house and bless future generations!

"...?" Father Meng paused, looking at the old servant in disbelief.

And this kind of operation?

Then, he turned his head and looked behind him, silent.

"Master?" Uncle Cai called out.

Father Meng pointed to the corridor behind him——

"Big pillar."

"Dad, you say."

"Take someone to replace the floor tiles that Master Hou walked by carefully one by one..."

Meng Dazhu: "??"

Although... it doesn't have to be so extreme, right?
Uncle Cai agrees with excitement—oh, yes, that's the way of thinking!

……

Xiao Mu didn't know the whereabouts of the floor tiles he stepped on. He rode beside Hengyu's carriage and returned to the Dingbeihou Mansion without stopping.

Outside the gate of Hou Mansion, Heng Yu got off the carriage and saw Xiao Mu still sitting upright on the horseback.

Seeing her looking over, he said, "Go in."

"Master Hou isn't going back to the house?"

"I'm going back to the barracks—"

Hengyu realized later - so, did he send her back on purpose?

Seeing the man on the horse grasping the reins and about to turn the horse's head, she suddenly said: "It's really late tonight, when Lord Hou returns to the barracks, it might be dawn."

Speaking of which, she is not someone who meddles in other people's affairs, but his "injury"...

Xiao Mu paused when he heard the words, but only said: "It's okay."

Although it's not a big deal, he always has to follow the plan when he makes a decision, and he doesn't like being disrupted.

Facing his cold eyebrows, Heng Yu gave up hope that he could persuade this person, and said with the mentality of perfunctory once he opened his mouth: "I thought that instead of rushing back overnight, Master Hou, it would be better to go back." Rest at the mansion for two hours, and leave for the camp tomorrow morning."

Since he insists, then let him——

When Hengyu was about to go back with blessings, the man immediately said: "That's fine."

Immediately, the man turned over and got off the horse.

Hengyu: ...she doesn't understand.

Obviously just now there is no sign of being persuaded——

Xiao Mu, who didn't know why he suddenly changed his mind and got off the horse, said calmly, "Let's go."

Heng Yu could only nod his head.

The two stepped across the vermilion lacquer threshold of the Hou Mansion one after the other, and walked into the mansion courtyard.

Thinking of Mrs. Wen finding her beloved daughter back, Heng Yu, who was still carrying the portrait in his sleeve, relaxed all over. Looking at the night, he sighed: "The stars are extraordinarily bright tonight."

Xiao Mu subconsciously followed her to look at the night sky.

Have it?

As long as it is a clear night, there will be stars, and there is no difference.

When he retracted his gaze, his gaze landed on the girl's pair of star-like pupils——

The stars are... really bright.

And "Xingxing" blinked at him——

The girl turned her head to look at him, and suddenly asked: "Master Hou, do you really think that after death, people will become stars?"

This kind of question used to coax a three-year-old child made Lord Xiao not think about it: "Of course not—"

The shining "star" is still staring at him...

After a pause, Lord Xiao Hou looked forward as much as he could, and said, "Of course it's not certain."

Heng Yu: ...I guess this means listening to what you say is like listening to what you say.

Probably because he realized that his answer was not suspected of talking nonsense, it was rare for Lord Xiao to take the initiative to continue the topic: "Master Ji believes such statements?"

Heng Yu nodded: "I believe."

She looked at the faintly twinkling stars, and said: "I, Aunt, once said that the life and death of a person are like the rising and setting of the stars. The so-called death of a person is to return oneself to the earth. Maybe a hundred years later, we will become a bunch of people. After thousands of years, the dust will grow into a big tree, a dandelion seed blown away by the wind... If it takes longer, thousands of years, under the ever-changing life of all things, who can say that you and I will really not merge into the sea of ​​stars Woolen cloth?"

Xiao Mu, who thought it was a childish talk of a three-year-old child, followed her words and looked at the stars again, saying: "The detachment of life and death may be to step out of the world - Mr. Qinghan is really a man of great wisdom and great enlightenment."

"So, after parting, we will meet again after all." The girl's voice was very soft, revealing a bit of elusive distance in the quiet night.

I don't know what came to mind, Xiao Mu didn't answer, but asked: "Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"

"Just say it casually." Heng Yu pulled away from his thoughts and smiled at him.

She never seemed to be stingy with her smile.

Xiao Mu glanced at her, and said solemnly: "The night is very cloudy, it's not appropriate to talk about life and death, don't say these unlucky things again—"

He was not a person who believed in these things, but somehow he wanted to make her taboo some things rather than believe them.

Listening to this sentence, which sounded like the old man next door was telling ignorant children, Heng Yu took advantage of the situation and flattered him seriously: "With your big Buddha here, no one dares to get close to any kind of evil spirit."

These words fell into Xiao Mu's ears as ridicule, but he also took the words: "This time is not always by your side."

"It makes sense, since this is the case, I must stick to Lord Hou as much as possible, so that I can get more Buddha's light for emergencies."

Faced with such audacity, Lord Xiao Hou, who had defeated her one after another, was rarely inspired to be a little bit competitive. He kept his eyes on him without showing any weakness and said: "I always appreciate people who keep their promises, Ji Hua Teachers can give it a try—"

The corner of Hengyu's mouth smiled slightly.

try what?
cling to him?

She turned her head to look at the man, and saw that although he was not smiling, there was a faint sense of joy and complacency on his handsome face.

Heng Yu blinked, and after a moment of surprise, couldn't help but smile.

It turned out that the majestic, cold and noble Xiao Hou was still as cute as this.

Then she nodded in response: "What a coincidence, what I'm best at is doing what I say."

As he spoke, he followed his words and walked two steps forward, getting closer to him.

Xiao Mu suddenly stopped, stretched out an arm to stop her behind him: "Be careful——"

Heng Yu was on guard immediately, and when he heard the rustling of the grass and trees beside him, he subconsciously reached out and grabbed his cloak.

It's too late to say--
