The market in Yangzhou opens early, and the walk along the pier is very lively. There are also all kinds of breakfast stalls along the way.

Thinking that Xu Miaoyin had not eaten breakfast this morning, she bought a bowl of wontons and took it home.

When she walked into Lanyin Courtyard, she saw no one. After asking, she found out that she had gone to Yuelingxuan, Xu Jiaoyue's courtyard.

He told Yuchun to take down the wontons and heat them up, and then he turned around and left Lanyinyuan again.

On the other side, when Xu Miaoyin walked into Yuelingxuan, Xu Jiaoyue had not yet stood up.

She looked up at the sun, what time was it and why were she still sleeping?

She narrowed her eyes, looked at the closed door, took a step closer, pushed the door hard, and walked in.

Looking at the neat bed, but there is no sign of sleeping?

She wanted to hold her forehead. This girl just came out of the ancestral hall. Where did she go?

Yunxiang looked up at the side and saw that the eldest girl's face looked a little bad. Her head was already lowered even lower. She hoped that the eldest girl wouldn't pay attention to her.

"Yunxiang, you serve her personally, you tell me!"

Xu Miaoyin glanced at the nervous Yunxiang and asked.

Yunxiang hesitated, and finally answered hesitantly: "Second girl, I took Qin Zhan to ride horses in the countryside."

After Yunxiang finished speaking, she lowered her head and did not dare to look up.

Although the eldest girl is kind to others, she is very strict in managing the Xu family. Although she usually dotes on her younger sister, her discipline is also quite strict.

Now that her master takes a young boy out to race horses, the eldest girl will probably punish her master severely.

However, Xu Miaoyin just sat there, not looking like she would get angry.

She knew Xu Jiaoyue's thoughts.

Qin Zhan sold himself to the Xu family with his horse at that time. Although he was a refugee, he had a good demeanor and was very calm. He also knew some boxing and kicking skills. Otherwise, she would not have let him work for Fang Shuhuai as a servant.

.

After going through life and death, she also thought about it. Even though she was just a servant, as long as Jiaojiao liked it, it didn't matter.

She stood up and left Yuelingxuan without saying anything.

After leaving Yuelingxuan, she took Yuqiu around casually in the yard.

The roses my father planted for my mother were in bloom, and the breeze carried a faint fragrance of flowers lingering around. Further ahead was the lotus pond. Because it was not in season yet, only dark green lotus branches decorated the lotus pond, which looked a bit desolate.

.

Everything is the same as before, but it feels different.

She sat in the pavilion and looked at the wall of rose flowers not far away, slightly stunned.

I wonder if Shuhuai has caught up with his father?

When he came to the pavilion, he saw her leaning in the pavilion, looking at the flower wall not far away, her eyes lowered, her feather-like eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes, her expression could not be seen clearly, but she looked a bit lonely

feeling.

His eyes flashed, and he walked closer and said, "What are you thinking about?"

When Xu Miaoyin heard this, she looked up and saw him slowly walking up to the pavilion, with a broad posture.

He was still the same person as the gentle breeze and bright moon, but she felt that he was slightly different from before.

There is a bit more momentum.

Thinking of this, he recalled the first conversation he had with her in the same courtyard.

At that time, he was still a poor scholar, and he needed a willing husband.

It was midsummer a year ago. He was involved by his cousin and was sold like an animal in the market. She saved him.

At that time, because she had offended the daughter of the governor of Yangzhou, she was included in the draft list, so she needed a marriage, and he wanted to repay her for saving her life.

"Do you know what you will lose if you marry into the Xu family?" She asked him.

Fang Shuhuai put away the smile on his face and said solemnly: "Madam saved me in danger. If it weren't for Madam, I might not have known where I died. It may be a piece of cake for Madam, but for Fang

To me, without my wife, I wouldn’t be who I am now. Now that my wife is in trouble, it’s time to repay my favor, and it’s my wish to marry into my wife! I know that my wife now doubts my sincerity, and is also worried that marrying into my wife will ruin my future.

Madam, you can rest assured that I am willing to marry you out of my sincerity, and also because I am pleased with you!"

She often walked out with her father, and some romantic young men came to talk to her about their love, but they never disturbed her mood.

The man in front of me did it easily.

But she understood that this was not a ripple of affection, but that feeling was more of an uneasiness.

So uneasy that she didn't know what to say and could only lower her eyes.

Fang Shuhuai saw her eyes lowered, her long and curled eyelashes quivering like a feather fan, covering all her emotions.

He clenched and unclenched his hand. After repeating it several times, he seemed to suddenly understand and said with self-pity: "It seems that my wife is really repelling me and doesn't want to believe me. Anyway, my father has hated me since I was a child and killed him."

, I killed my mother when I grew up, which is my fate. I should bear these things, and it is reasonable for my wife not to want to."

After saying that, he raised his hand to look at the new clothes, and said: "This clothes does not belong to me, it is just wishful thinking. I will wash it after I get home and return it. I will say goodbye!"

Without waiting for Xu Miaoyin to react, she passed her and wanted to walk out. However, she suddenly stopped at a fork in the road and said with some embarrassment, "Hey, madam, can you help me get someone to take me out? I don't know the way!"

Xu Miaoyin looked at the back of his head with embarrassment. She was originally feeling a little sad when he said it, but she suddenly felt that it was both ridiculous and ridiculous. How could this person be complaining about himself one moment, and now he was asking her for directions blankly?

How to go.

"Fang Shuhuai, I really don't have a suitable candidate to be my husband-in-law right now. I am telling you this today just because I hope that since you have agreed to marry me, there will be no room for return."

She walked slowly towards him and continued: "In other words, you can only follow the motto of my Xu family. Anyone who has a wife is not allowed to take a concubine. Your career path to officialdom after years of hard work will also be cut off!"

She stopped in front of him, watched him slowly turn around, smiled at her blankly, and said: "My life belongs to my wife, not to mention my marriage. As for my official career, I am lucky to get it and lose it."

It’s my destiny, since God has this arrangement, I just follow the trend!”

He looked at her with visible joy in his eyes, "Mrs. Lao Miaoyin, please bear with me for the rest of my life!"

His words when he asked for marriage still rang in her ears, and it was precisely because of his words that her heart was moved at that time, and at this time she was truly happy with her husband.

Even though he is a scholar, he can still support her, which is enough.

Just like my own parents!

She never asked for much, she just wanted her loved ones to be healthy and safe.

But now that she is back, she wants to protect her family and not let those bad guys hurt them again!

She wants to find them out and get them the punishment they deserve!

There were thousands of thoughts in her mind, but they only lasted for a moment. She looked at him with a smile in her eyes and said, "I'm thinking that the way you looked when you proposed marriage to me here is completely different from the way you look now."

Fang Shuhuai was stunned, his innocent eyes looked at himself, and then looked at her suspiciously, and suddenly there was a flash of confusion in his eyes.

"My wife's clothes are well made. They fit me well and make me feel warm and comfortable. It makes me look more elegant."

Xu Miaoyin couldn't help but laugh. The sad mood at that time was completely washed away by his self-proclaimed words.

"How can I, my husband, be so self-proclaimed as you?"

Seeing that she was smiling like a flower and not as lonely as before, he sat next to her and held her gently in his arms.

Seeing this, Yuqiu on the side lowered his head and said: "It's windy here, I'll go get the girl a cloak!"

After saying that, he left wisely.

Fang Shuhuai saw that there were only two of them in the pavilion and asked, "What was Madam thinking about just now?"

It was still the same question, but Xu Miaoyin didn't want to answer it. The darkness hidden in her heart could not always be expressed.

Why bother telling people about it and worrying those who care about you?

What's more, only by changing the dark causes can we obtain bright results.

That way you can truly feel at ease.

She shook her head and talked about another matter, "Qin Zhan has been with you for a while, have you noticed anything different?"

Fang Shuhuai narrowed his eyes slightly, paused for a moment while stroking her shoulder, looked down at the person in his arms, and asked, "Why did you think of asking him?"

She leaned in his arms and didn't notice anything strange about him. She seemed to have remembered something and smiled softly, "Jiaojiao seems to like him very much. If he also has feelings for Jiaojiao, I won't object."

When her father was in jail, she had almost no time to care about Xu Jiaoyue. Qin Zhan would accompany Jiaojiao from time to time. She was somewhat grateful to him.

"But why haven't you seen Qin Zhan following you in the past two days?"

Fang Shuhuai didn't answer immediately when he heard this. He just raised his eyes to look at the flower wall, then lowered his eyes, and happened to meet Xu Miaoyin, who had been waiting for him for a long time without answering, and raised her head to look at him.

There was still a bit of coldness in his eyes, which made Xu Miaoyin stunned for a moment. She looked carefully again and could no longer see anything else except what he said.

"I asked him to go do some things. I won't be able to see him these days, but he should be back soon."

"When did you let him go?"

"Yesterday, after you woke up."
