In the blink of an eye, another five years have passed. In Liguo, in the capital, in the painting garden, there is a young man, sixteen or seventeen years old, but his voice and appearance have made countless people stop and stare, he is so beautiful.
Shutao looked at the figure in front of her and smiled with satisfaction: In the world of care, I'm afraid there will never be anyone who can compare with the young master. As the years go by, she has now become the mother of a three-year-old child.
, but she is still responsible for taking care of Rui'er's food and daily life.
She even liked Rui'er more than her own children, so that as soon as her children were born and became sensible, she taught them to be Rui'er's loyal guards. She asked Yu Tianrong to let Chi Yang teach the children martial arts, and wanted her
The child will become a guardian who can protect Ruier in the future.
Yu Tianrong actually didn't quite understand why Shutao didn't want to leave them to enjoy the life of being her own master. Even if she liked and sincerely loved Ruier, she didn't quite understand it. In the end, she could only attribute it to the ancients.
Loyal!
"Aunt Tao, why are you doing these menial tasks yourself again? Just let others do it!" Rui'er turned around and looked helplessly at this woman who had always taken good care of herself.
"Master, you can rest assured if I do it myself! Don't worry, I'm still very young and can still take good care of the master for decades!"
well!
Rui'er was really helpless towards Aunt Tao in front of her. It had been more than ten years since he called her sister and now she became Aunt Tao.
"Master, the son of Prime Minister Liu from Dongcheng has invited you to attend the banquet of talented scholars this afternoon. Will you go?"
Mr. Liu? Rui'er frowned slightly, "No, I'm not interested."
Shutao didn't try to persuade her, because she heard that Mr. Liu wanted to introduce his sister to the young master. Although Miss Liu was heard to be quite good, with both talent and beauty, she was still far from being worthy of their young master.
!Sometimes they are confused as servants, what kind of woman is needed to win the attention of their young master?
"Brother, let's go!" A small and exquisite person ran in and looked at Rui'er with a smile.
Looking at the similar face, there is no doubt that she is his sister Pei Youlian.
"Yes, big brother, let's go play!" The other two little guys can walk quite steadily, but compared to Youlian, they are still a head shorter.
"Mo Huai, Mo Ji, you two can't go!" Youlian sounded like a big sister, "You two are still young, so you have to stay at home. Otherwise, if we get separated, mommy will scold me and my brother!"
The two of them looked at each other and cried loudly. Rui'er looked at it with a headache, "Whoever keeps crying will not be allowed to go!"
The crying suddenly stopped, and Rui'er shook her head helplessly. These two were also very annoying.
…
On the street, a group of people attracted attention. A beautiful young man was followed by three attendants, and finally followed by two maids and two guards.
These children are so beautiful that people cannot help but notice them.
"Master Yu," a woman came from the other side and happened to bump heads with Ruier and the others.
This woman was also around sixteen or seventeen years old. She had a pretty face and was followed by some servants. From the looks of it, she knew she was a young lady from a wealthy family.
Rui'er glanced at her and responded lightly, "Hello, Miss Huang."
This girl is said to be related to Rui'er. She is the niece of Nangong Jin's later wife, Huang Shiya. However, Rui'er has always disliked Nangong Jin, so she has never regarded them as relatives, and she is polite every time she meets them.
Calls given by strangers. Over time, people on Nangong Jin's side also got used to it, calling them Master Yu, Miss, etc.
However, Huang Shiya likes Rui'er very much, and she always talks to Rui'er every time they meet. Because there is a certain limit between advancement and retreat, Rui'er treats her politely even though she is not close to her.
"Master Yu, are you taking your younger siblings out to play? Can I play with them? I really envy you for having these lovely younger siblings!"
Rui'er curled her lips secretly where no one could see her, and replied gently: "If you don't mind it, just play with them!"
"It's not troublesome, why bother!" Huang Shiyaya smiled happily and reached out to hold Youlian. She knew very well that Youlian belonged to the same father as Rui'er, but she also understood that Rui'er also liked this person.
They were two twins, so I freed up one hand to hold them. Unexpectedly, the two little ghosts made a face at her and ran to Rui'er, each holding one hand, "Big brother, we are going to go boating!"
"Row a boat? Didn't you play it last time? You two were so naughty that you almost fell into the water. My mother said I can't let you play anymore."
"Brother, let's go, let's go, we're going to row a boat! We're going to play with a big boat!"
Rui'er frowned, oh, it's troublesome! He glanced at Chi Yang behind him and said, "Uncle Chi, why don't you hire a boat? It needs to be in capital letters. The most important thing is safety."
"Okay, Master, wait a moment." Chi Yang left quickly.
Rui'er looked at Chi Yang's back. He was still so strong. Over the past ten years, he had become a martial arts master. However, similarly, Uncle Chi and the four of them had also made a lot of progress. Uncle Chi had been as strong as ever for more than ten years.
Still guarding himself, his godfather was rushed to some martial arts conference by his mother a few days ago, but he was not allowed to go. I heard that his mother wanted his godfather to find his other half.
If the mother can accept the godfather, then the godfather will be happy! But why can’t the mother accept the godfather? In his opinion, the love of the godfather is no less than that of his father and Uncle Xi. He once secretly
I asked my mother, but she said that he didn't understand now, but maybe he would understand when he has someone he likes.
Yes, he hasn't met anyone he likes yet. No woman he knows can compare to his beloved mother. If he were to look for one, he would find a woman just like his mother!
However, he thought this wish was difficult. At least, he had never seen a woman who looked like his mother so far.
Aunt Fei'er is also very good. She has been with her mother in the past few years and has been protecting her. However, that is only good. What he wants to find is someone very similar to her mother!
"Master Yu, look, your guard has been hired on the ship!" Huang Shiya saw that he had been distracted and didn't know what he was thinking. She felt a little uncomfortable. When she saw Chi Yang coming back, she took the opportunity to interrupt Rui'er's thoughts.
Rui'er raised his eyes and glanced at Chi Yang, "Uncle Chi,"
"Master, the boat is already here."
"Okay, you carry Youlian up, and I'll carry these two little guys!"
Chi Yang obeyed the order and went to pick up Youlian. Youlian pulled Chi Yang's hair with a smile, "Uncle Chi, you are so fast. I want to eat cake. You have to buy it for me and then send it to the boat for us!"
Rui'er glared at Youlian, "Sister, don't mess around, or you can go home!"
Youlian curled her lips, "I'm just borrowing your Uncle Chi. What's so bad about it? Daddy has also arranged two guards for me, huh!"
Chi Yang smiled gently, "Second Miss, don't be angry, I'll get it for you right away. What flavor do you want to eat?"
"Strawberry, I want strawberry flavor!"
"Okay, what do the third young lady and the fourth young master want to eat?" Chi Yang looked at Mo Huai and Mo Ji again.
"We want red bean flavor!" the two said in unison.
After getting on the boat, Rui'er glanced at Huang Shiya and said, "Ms. Huang, thank you for accompanying my sister all the way. Let's say goodbye!"
Huang Shiya was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, I wish you all a good time." Originally, she wanted to follow her on the boat, but she never expected that Rui'er would be so disrespectful.
Watching the big boat go away, the maid next to Huang Shiya said angrily: "Miss, he is so abominable that he didn't invite the lady to swim on the lake with him!"
Huang Shiya smiled slightly, "He has always been like this. It's good to be able to speak politely. Who said that my uncle treated them badly back then? Although his mood is understandable, he is only a child after all, and children are innocent. What my aunt said
Yes, it was right that my uncle didn't like Mrs. Yu back then, but it was wrong to treat them badly, mother and son, because they were also framed."
"But, miss, you have been showing kindness to him for several years, and he is still like this. I don't think it's worth it!"
"Whether it's worth it or not is not up to you. I just think it's good. Let's go. Everyone has left. Let's go and have some fun. Don't worry about it." Huang Shiya turned around and left, with nostalgia in her eyes, but...
No jealousy.
It's true that she likes Rui'er very much, but she won't resent Rui'er just because he doesn't like her. It's her own business that she likes him, but it's also his business that he doesn't like her. No one can force anyone, if he must
If you want to say it, then you have to bear the consequences of what you sow. This is what her mother has always taught her. A virtuous woman must know how to be generous and knowledgeable.
…
Ruier took a few young followers on the boat to explore the lake and mountains, sitting leisurely on the bow of the boat while reading a book and admiring the afterglow of the setting sun. The orange light scattered on the lake looked so quiet and magical.
"Master, Master, there seems to be someone in front of you!" Suddenly, the maid next to Rui'er exclaimed.
Rui'er looked up and saw that there was indeed a person floating on the lake not far away, but that person was a little strange, as if he had something tied to his body. He waved his hand gently, and another guard behind him flew into the lake and picked up the person.
In a blink of an eye, he returned to the boat and placed the person in front of Rui'er. Rui'er lowered his head and looked at it. What he saw was a woman with a round face. Although her hair was disheveled, her hair was too short. It seemed that she had just been trimmed.
Usually, it’s the woman who doesn’t add anyone else who cuts her hair so short?
"Aunt Qing, help her tidy up."
"Yes, Master." Qing'er reached out and carried the wet woman into the cabin. After a long time, she heard a cough coming from inside.
Rui'er smiled and said, "It seems that I can't die!"
Lan'er was a little frightened when she saw Rui'er's smile. Could it be that the young master felt bored these days and thought of some strange idea?
