(1/2)
"Let's go back."
“…”
Feeling my breathing for a moment, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at me with a smile: "What's wrong? You've been in Chengdu for so long, and you've forgotten to go home?"
“…”
I still didn't say anything, just looked at him.
In the evening that was not very quiet, at this moment, between him and I was so quiet that only two people were breathing.
Go back... back to Jinling.
In fact, that sentence was exactly what I wanted to say just now, but for some reason, the same words and the same purpose were spoken from his mouth, but it gave me a very subtle feeling.
I thought for a while and smiled, "Don't tell me that you miss home."
"Don't you want to?"
“…”
This is wrong, and it seems that something is wrong when you say you don’t want to.
Although he and Pei Yuanhao are not brothers, they are really doing things along the way.
I smiled, but didn't answer, but just closed my eyes slowly and was about to fall asleep. Instead, he became uneasy. The hand holding me shook me twice and said, "You haven't answered me yet."
I opened my eyes and looked at him for a while, and said softly: "It's time to go home."
“…”
"I want to go back, too."
A gentle smile appeared on his face, he leaned over and kissed my forehead gently, and said, "That's good. Let's prepare for it tomorrow and say goodbye to your mother and your brother."
"Um."
"But I think there may be no need to say goodbye."
"Hmm?" I looked up at him.
He curled the corners of his lips slightly and smiled, "Maybe, they will walk with us."
“…”
"I see their appearance, and it seems that they are ready to travel far."
The candlelight at the head of the bed swayed gently, casting a faint, slight light on the whole room, and there was also such a light flashing in his eyes.
He said this vaguely, but in fact he was very clear - the Folang machine cannon, just the birth of a name, had already made everyone ready to move. Yan Qingchen even did not hide his action to seize the cannon. As for the others, it seems that their actions are in Yan Qinghan's expectations and plans.
The general trend of the Central Plains has not yet chaotic, but people's hearts have been chaotic first.
This is the situation that I least want to see and the most helpless.
After a while of silence, I smiled faintly and said, "Even if the same route is the same, the destination will be different."
“…”
"They go theirs, we go ours."
“…”
I yawned and said, "Let's go to bed soon. It's their business to travel far away. However, we are not close to Chengdu to Jinling, so we need to be mentally intensive first."
Pei Yuanxiu agreed and reached out and hugged me tighter. Although the quilt was still cold, the body temperature of the person quickly heated up. I leaned calmly on his chest, listened to his heartbeat, and slowly closed my eyes in a complicated mood.

The next day, as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Li'er lying on the head of the bed with an anxious expression on his face. His little eyebrows were frowned tightly. When he saw me awake, he immediately shouted: "Mom!"
“…”
I was still a little dazed, rubbed my eyes, and then looked at her again: "Li'er?"
"Mom, it's not good!"
“…”
My heart skipped a beat, but I didn't ask her what was wrong with her immediately. Instead, I subconsciously turned my head to look at me-
As soon as I woke up, I felt that the other side of the bed was empty and there was no temperature at all.
Where is Pei Yuanxiu?
I was also worried that Li'er would come to our bed early in the morning. What would be stimulating when we saw the two of us sleeping together in the same bed, but who knew that he would disappear early in the morning. I subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Before I could recover, Li'er grabbed my exposed arms with both hands and shook them hard: "Mom, it's not good!"
"What's wrong?"
"Mom, the gift you gave me is gone!"
“…”
"That jade token, you said I could grow teeth quickly after I brought it. I just woke up and found out that it was gone!"
“…”
"Mom, why did I fall asleep all of a sudden yesterday? Did someone steal my jade token?"
“…”
I thought it was a big deal and scared me.
I breathed a sigh of relief again. Looking at Li'er's anxious look, I hurriedly sat up and comforted her, "Li'er, don't panic, my mother took that jade token and it didn't fall."
"Ah?" She raised her head, her big, watery eyes looking at me: "Why should I take it away?"
I suddenly became energetic, jumped up from the bed, walked to the dressing table, picked up a diamond glass and put it in front of her, and said to her, "Look at your teeth."
She glanced at me, hesitated, and slowly opened her mouth: "Ah——ah! My teeth!"
She looked up at me in surprise: "Mom, my teeth are growing!"
I smiled and said, "So, my mother took the jade token."
"Oh..." She nodded and asked again, "But didn't I say that I'll lose my teeth in the future?"
"If you bring that jade token, it will always bless you to grow beautiful new teeth, but if you keep carrying them, your teeth will grow longer and longer--" As I said, I simply started to make a fool of myself: "It will grow outside the mouth."
"Um!" Li'er was so scared that she hurriedly covered her mouth.
"So," I put down my diamond glasses and turned to her and said, "You can't continue to bring that jade tablet."
"Uh-huh."
"You can't tell anyone."
"I don't."
"So good." I smiled and stroked her intentions. Li'er seemed to be very happy that his teeth had grown so quickly. He then reached out and picked up the diamond glasses and looked at her mouth. I sat in front of the dressing table for a while and asked softly: "Li'er, did you see your father when you came?"
"No."
"How long have you been up?"
"It's been a long time. But I saw that my mother hadn't woken up, so I didn't bother with her."
"So good."
I kissed her again. At this moment, the maids and servants had already come outside the door, and I took Li'er to wash them together. Just after finishing up, two more maids came up and held two new clothes for us.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! I frowned slightly: "What is this for?"
"If you want to go back to the eldest lady, this is what the head of the family ordered."
"What is he going to do?"
"The head of the family holds a banquet today to invite all the guests."
“…”
I was stunned for a moment.
Yesterday was Pei Yuanfeng's happy day, but after that incident, even the bride disappeared, so naturally the wedding banquet could not be held. But after all, all these guests had come, so it was impossible to just let it go without any explanation.
However, holding a banquet today makes people feel less simple.
I nodded and said that I knew. The maids saluted again and were about to turn and exit. Just as they retreated to the door, I called them again and asked, "Who did you see my husband?"
"Mr. Pei? He went to Nanxiang early in the morning, Yao Lao's place."
"oh?"
"We sent us breakfast, so the eldest lady doesn't have to worry."
Of course I won't worry about these...
Seeing my eyebrows slightly frowning, as if I was worried, the maids looked at each other. At this time when they were about to withdraw, they all stopped and looked at me carefully: "Miss, do you have any instructions?"
I looked up at them and waved my hand gently: "It's okay, you guys go down."
"yes."
I was still a little dazed and stood there for a long time without moving. Instead, Li'er came over and took the clothes and said softly: "Mom, are we all going?"
