When Qi Yun and Ye Jiao returned to the mountain yard, Xu Bao had already started to make a noise.

The child could not bear the hunger, and he had never left Ye Jiao for so long. Xu Bao held his mouth and didn't cry, but the little head kept turning around as if looking for someone.

Liu's family was also extremely worried. Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, and the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law did not come back, she was naturally anxious, but Xiaosu couldn't ask a word from her mouth. She had to die, the Liu family didn't have trouble for her, but he was already thinking about sending someone down the mountain to find her.

At this moment, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao's carriage returned.

This time, Tiezi drove the horse-drawn cart with white hair on his head, and the coachman brought a new horse from the drugstore and drove the empty cart back in front of the abandoned yard.

As soon as he entered the hospital, Xu Bao opened his mouth and cried loudly!

His cry has always been loud and loud, and in Qi Yun's words, even Xiao Hei at home can't overpower him.

The howling at this moment made the Liu clan holding him startled.

The next moment I saw Qi Yun and Ye Jiao hurriedly entering the door. Liu's first looked at them and made sure that they were all right. Then he smiled and coaxed Xu Bao in his arms: "Look, Xu Bao is smart. Mother is here, and hearing this cry is very loud, but really healthy."

Granny Liu also laughed humorously on the side, Ye Jiao first saluted Liu's respectfully before reaching out to take Xu Bao over.

The little doll stopped crying as soon as Ye Jiao’s arms reached him. Because his hands and feet were wrapped in a swaddle and could not move, he could only twist his head and put his face in Ye Jiao’s arms, rubbing back and forth, humming in his mouth. At the same time, he was hungry.

Ye Jiao is always not good at feeding Liu's place, so she whispered softly: "Mother, I'm late, I'm tired of you and you're worried. Wait for me to change clothes and talk with you."

"I should be tired the day I went out. Clean up and rest. You don't need to come and find me again." Liu Shi smiled and nodded and let Ye Jiao leave, but she stopped Qi Yun, "Erlang, you wait. "

Qi Yun's eyes were fixed on Ye Jiao, but after listening to Liu's words, he could only stop, and turned around to salute Liu's: "Mother."

Liu Shi looked at him with a smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to greet: "Come here and let my mother take a look."

Qi Yun looked at the wound on his arm without a trace. Now he has changed his robe, and the cloth wrapped around his arm can't be seen at the first stop of his sleeve, and he is not afraid of being looked at by Liu. .

He walked over, sat beside Liu's side, and said slowly: "I went down the mountain to the medicine shop just now to see what's going on in the shop, but it rained and it was difficult to go out, which was delayed."

This is half true and half false, and there can be no mistakes.

The Liu family didn’t really want to ask anything. For her, it’s just a matter of taking care of the back home. Her own Jiro is an idea. He has his own plan. His head is also the smartest of the three brothers, Liu Shi has never worried about him.

Reaching out and gently holding Qi Yun's hand, Liu Shi smiled and said: "Well, it's raining you shouldn't have to go out and run, you are still empty, this rainy day is the coldest, hiding in the rain in your own shop Or, it’s just that the tired lady is worried, and she goes out to find you. You should calm her down later."

Qi Yun heard this, his face moved, his eyebrows softened, and he whispered back, "I see, mother."

Not only did he go to find himself in the rain, but he also helped himself with his life. Qi Yun thought, he was actually very blessed in his life. Although his body was corrupt, his parents hurt and brothers helped him. He married the best and best girl when he was old, and his life was not in vain.

Liu's patted his hand again, and didn't let him stay too much. He just said a few words before letting him return.

After Qi Yun left, Liu's face disappeared, and he asked softly: "Mother Liu, are you looking at Erlang, are you hiding something from me?"

Granny Liu hesitated for a while, and whispered back: "Second Young Master... is the most filial person. If you really have something to hide, you are probably afraid of your wife's worry.

Liu nodded, did not deny this, and turned the Buddha beads in his hands: "My three sons are filial, sensible and courteous, and usually don't hide anything from me. It's just that Erlang doesn't say anything, I am willing to pretend not I know, but we still have to prepare."

It was clear to her that Qi Yun's clothes had changed, as did the iron ones.

Although Ye Jiao was still looking at the satin dress that morning, the cloak she wore outside was nowhere to be seen.

Even if Liu Shi couldn't guess what happened, she knew that these two people must not only be delayed by the heavy rain, there will always be something aside.

Granny Liu whispered, "Madam, if you don't feel relieved, just call Tiezi in and ask."

Liu Shi shook his head: "No, if you ask him, I will always let Erlang know. Since he wants to hide from me, then I have to pretend to be ignorant, otherwise he will be worried."

Squeezing the beads in his hands and stood up, Liu thought for a while, and asked Granny Liu to come closer.

She whispered: "Let people go down the mountain, tell the house, watch the door tightly, and guard the house. If any guests come, they will be rejected. Then tell Dalang that they don’t have to come back. It’s been raining recently, on the Zhuangzi It's so silly."

Granny Liu responded and turned to go out.

When I walked out the door, I saw Xiaosu and Tiezi sitting together, wondering what they were muttering.

Seeing Mrs. Liu going out, they stood up: "Mother Liu."

Granny Liu nodded and asked with a smile on her face: "Why are you sitting outside? It's cold. Don't always sit on the stone stool. Be careful."

The two answered honestly, and then Mrs. Liu left.

When she walked away, Xiao Su grabbed Tiezi, pulled his sleeve, looked at a bruise on the elbow from the back of her hand, and burst into tears: "Why is it so badly hurt?"

Tiezi has been protecting her since she was a child, and she was always the most afraid of her crying, so he hurriedly said: "It's not a problem, I am much lighter than the young master. Don't worry, it will be fine in a few days."

Xiao Su pursed her lips to hold back her tears, nodded, and then remembered: "The young master is also hurt? Where is the second grandma, is there anything wrong with the second grandma?"

With that said, the little girl was about to get up and run inside, as if to go in carefully to see if her second grandmother was injured, her face was very anxious.

Tiezi hurriedly pulled her and told her to sit down.

At this moment, the young master and grandmother were talking, she would be unhappy if she went in.

"It's okay. Didn't Li Langzhong follow? They are all fine now, but when the bath water is brought in, you remember to tell the second young grandma that the second young master's wound should not touch the water. Just be careful." Tiezi smiled and rubbed Xiaosu's head with her hand.

As for how he was injured, he didn't say, and he would only scare Xiao Su if he said left and right, and nothing else was of any use.

At this time, a woman came over and said to Xiao Su with a smile: "This is the sweet soup that Madam asked me to bring you. Drink it while it's hot to dispel the cold."

Xiaosu held it in her hand and thanked him. After the woman left, she wondered: "Madam give me the sweet soup...what do you do?"

Tie Zi felt Men Erqing in his heart, and it was Liu's reward for her.

When Ye Jiao left, Xiao Su didn't know the danger ahead, but if she got Ye Jiao's words, let her close her mouth and don't say more, just take good care of Young Master.

And Xiao Su really didn't say a word, holding back the matter until they came back and didn't reveal a single word to Liu's.

She did this because she didn't know what Ye Jiao was going to do, she just listened to the master's instructions.

Liu's reward is her loyalty.

On the contrary, if Liu's just pried Xiaosu's mouth open easily, now it is probably for someone to send her back and drive her out of the house, no more.

Tiezi reached out and touched Xiaosu's head, and smiled and said to her: "Don't ask too much, just eat something, I smell the fragrance, you can eat if you don't eat it." The spoon in her hand.

Who knows, Xiao Su puts the spoon directly into his hand: "You go out for a while, I'm afraid it's cold. Let me eat this for you, I'll be fine." After that, Xiao Su didn't care about Tiezi's expression. He stood up, patted the skirt, and went to see if the bath water was ready.

Tiezi was left staring at the sweet red bean soup that night.

After a while, he laughed, but he was a little silly in front of Qi Yun, the clever and clever boy, and he ate the sweet red bean soup in a while.

In the room, Ye Jiao had finished feeding her milk, tidyed up her clothes, and put Xu Bao on the bed to play with him.

Now Xu Bao can see a lot of things clearly. He always loves to laugh. A little bit of amusement is just a chuckle. His arms and legs are very vigorous, and he is especially cute when he moves.

And when Ye Jiao went out and asked people to lift the bath tub and make the screen, Qi Yun naturally hung down his injured left arm, stretched out his right hand, and turned over Xu Bao who was lying on his stomach.

Xu Bao seemed to prefer lying on his stomach instead of lying down. At this moment, being pulled over by his father, he was particularly unhappy.

But he is not noisy, just swaying his limbs, looking for a way to turn back.

Qi Yun just sat aside and watched, not helping, but from time to time he reached out and patted his stomach.

The appearance of my son really resembles a little tortoise who can't turn it over.

When he heard the footsteps of Ye Jiao's thick-soled embroidered shoes, Qi Yun quickly put his hands behind the little guy, and he turned back smoothly.

Xu Bao laughed again, lying on the bed happily, looking at Qi Yun with his head held high, his eyes were as bright as black grapes.

When Ye Jiao walked over to watch, what she saw was such a lively and harmonious father and son playing scene.

With a smile on her face, she used to sit next to Qi Yun, but watched Xu Bao grab the meat paw on Qi Yun’s left arm, and hurriedly pulled him: "Don’t make trouble with your father, he has a wound on his arm. It hurts to touch, Xu Bao is good."

Qi Yun couldn't help smiling when he heard the words.

Ye Jiao blinked and looked at him: "What are you laughing at Xiang Gong?"

"Jiao Niang, you always speak two words now, it sounds interesting." Qi Yun said, turning sideways, blocking his left arm, and then stretched out his right hand to pinch Xu Bao's little girl. Fat hands.

Xu Bao smiled and hugged his hand. He should have understood nothing, but he never extended his paw on Qi Yun's left arm.

However, Ye Jiao didn’t feel any difference in what she said. Maybe when she was taking care of Xu Bao, Mrs. Liu always took a bite to eat and sleep. She always followed with Ye Jiao unconsciously, but she didn’t. I think something is wrong.

He looked at Qi Yun with some doubts: "Where is it interesting?"

Qi Yun looked at her and said with a smile: "Just like if I call you, Jiaojiao..."

As soon as this title came out, Qi Yun felt a little too sweet, and some couldn't say it.

But before he could speak again, she saw Ye Jiao's cheeks reddened slightly.

This is actually a rare thing. Normally, my own lady is the most cheerful, but everything depends on my heart, what I think of and what to do, even when two people study the book together, Ye Jiao can do it one by one without changing his face, never shy. , That heart is like colored glaze, especially transparent.

But now Ye Jiao flushed her cheeks and stared at him with her eyes: "My husband, don't shout like this, like a child."

Qi Yun curled up his lips, stopped teasing her, but kept this title in his heart.

There will always be a time to be said in the future.

Ye Jiao lowered her head, patted Xu Bao's small butt, and looked at Qi Yun: "The bath tub in the outer room is set."

Qi Yun didn't get up immediately, but said to Ye Jiao: "Why don't you wash it first, Jiao Niang, you are very tired today."

Ye Jiao blinked, "No, you are injured. Be careful not to touch the water. I will wash you off first."

Hearing this, Qi Yun immediately got up, went to the screen neatly, took off his clothes and went into the bathtub.

Ye Jiao fiddled with the screen again, looking at how tightly it could block it, and then called Xiao Su to come in to help take care of Xu Bao, then tied the loops, took the towel, and walked around behind the screen.

This was not the first time Ye Jiao saw Qi Yun take a bath. The last time he had just got married, Ye Jiao saw him by mistake. At that time, Qi Yun was so scared that she was red.

Now Ye Jiao’s mentality is similar to that of before, but Qi Yun has improved a lot, and there is no secret to each other, just look at it...

It's not that I haven't seen it.

But when Ye Jiao wiped his back with a towel, Qi Yun still had red ears.

Ye Jiao took a bath bean and squeezed it open, put it on the towel, and carefully avoided his arm. While making a circle on the man's back, he asked: "I forgot to ask you just now, the third son called You go, didn’t you say it's related to Big Brother?"

"Well, speaking of it, he said that the eldest brother is in good health, and he will be back soon, but someone will come back with him. I don't know who it is. The third son didn't tell me. I think I'll know it later."

These words made Ye Jiao feel more at ease, drew some water on him, pinched his soft fingertips on his arm, and said softly, "Big brother is safe, and I can still catch up with the New Year when I come back now, Xu Bao Yes, my eldest brother prepared so many objects for Xu Bao, but Xu Bao hasn’t seen him yet.”

Qi Yun smiled, but said nothing.

The incident on the third son was obviously not trivial. It involved the royal family's inner court, so an ordinary citizen of him would naturally not rush to listen.

Now that his family has not yet reached the point where honor and disgrace are tied to the third son, Qi Yun hasn't thought about looking for him lately. After all this, he will wait until Ye Pingrong returns to make a decision.

After all, Ye Pingrong has been following the Third Young Master for a long time, and he has to discuss with him how to go in the future.

At this time, Ye Jiao heard two babbles.

She couldn't help but put her head out of the screen, and saw Xiao Su was holding Xu Bao, the little girl's face was a little helpless, and Xu Bao was smiling at the map she drew on the bed, very proud.

Xiao Su watched Ye Jiao come over, and shook Xu Bao. Sure enough, she saw a piece of her little pants wet.

Ye Jiao asked, "You get so much wet, change your clothes."

Xiao Su immediately took out the new one, wiped it clean with a soft dry cloth, and prepared to change his pants again.

But Ye Jiao said this behind Qi Yun. Qi Yun didn't know what Ye Jiao was looking at. He just leaned against the bathtub, and could not turn around because of the arm injury, so he could only turn his head. I saw Ye Jiao's clothes got wet.

Naturally, she thought that what Ye Jiao said just now was her own.

This was also inevitable. Ye Jiao was afraid that Qi Yun would be cold, so he added hot water to the tub several times, and it was inevitable that it would splash.

Qi Erlang said solemnly: "It doesn't matter if it gets wet, it's just that it's cold now. If it gets cold, it won't be good. It just happens that the tub here is big. Just come in and wash."

Xiao Su is puzzled, there is a charcoal basin in the house, where is it cold?

Qi Yun originally thought that Ye Jiao would always hesitate, but who knew her Jiao Niang actually agreed: "It's OK."

This caused Qi Yun to move subconsciously, as if he wanted to move her a place.

But Ye Jiao put her handkerchief aside, and turned to get out of the screen.

At the moment when Qi Yun was strange, he saw a stripped white dumpling placed in a bathtub.

Rou Dudu's body was lying directly in his arms, Qi Yun hugged him tightly, and Ye Jiao's smiling voice was in his ear: "Msang Gong, you let him sit on your lap and hold on a little."

Then, Qi Yun stared at him with his son lying in his arms.

Xu Bao looked at him with a smile, and there was a bubble in his mouth.

Qi Yun was stunned and accepted this unexpected change. He coughed slightly, hugged him tightly, and washed his son clean with Ye Jiao.

Just thinking in my heart, I still have to go down early.

At least when I go home, I can let someone take Xu Bao to sleep in the wing, but on the mountain, there is just such a room, and there is nowhere to go...

However, Qi Yun, who was thinking about it, did not go back immediately. Whether it was for the injury or for the red leaves of the mountain, he would not rush.

After staying on the mountain for another three days, they accompanied the Liu family to see the beautiful scenery of the red leaves, and the group took a carriage to Qi's house.
