MTL - Sweet Beauty-Chapter 49 peep

In the early morning of the second day, the genius was slightly bright, and when the roosters were crowing, A Shu and Liu Yu got up early.

Liu Yu left the house and first went outside the city to meet with the accompanying soldiers who were stationed there, ready to go. Ah Shu stayed in the mansion, instructing the servants and maids to pack their bags, and said goodbye to her brother and sister-in-law at dawn.

Although Zhao You and Deng Wan were surprised by their sudden departure, they did not expect it at all, so they didn't stay much, they only asked back and forth several times, and ordered to take out all the clothes that had been prepared for her to take with them. Packing the box, so that the servants also prepare the carriage and horses.

Before leaving, Liu Xiu rushed back from outside the city and chatted with Zhao You outside the mansion, while Deng Wan whispered with A Shu.

"Ashu, you remember what I said."

Ah Shu was still a bit gloomy and sad about parting, but as soon as she touched Deng Wan's constant hinting eyes and the meaningful hand holding her, she immediately became shy again.

She hurriedly retracted her hand, and after nodding in a panic, she stepped back again and again, and went straight to the carriage, not daring to lift the curtain again to take another look.

Nearly noon, the group finally set off from Handan, all the way east, towards Xindu.

This road was not hurried or slow, and every time it passed, the team was stationed outside the city, and Liu Yu led A Shu to stay at the inn.

Therefore, all the territory of Jizhou was subdued by Liu Yu, and all the postmasters were more attentive and respectful than before, so that the bumps and discomforts on the way were much less.

However, Liu Xiu always felt that something was wrong with the woman beside him.

She became particularly prone to blushing and shyness, day and night. Sometimes he could even see her blushing when she was alone. That appearance is really cute and pretty. If any ordinary soldiers pass by, they can't help but look at him again and again, but she doesn't know it.

He also asked her twice what was wrong, but instead of asking a single star, he taught her that her charming appearance made her mind rippling.

Fortunately, as it was approaching Xindu, A Shu finally slowly put the cranky thoughts in her mind behind her.

On the day they entered the city, Fan Xiao and others led everyone to greet them at the city gate. There was a lot of official business, so Liu Yu went directly to the government office, while A Shu led everyone back to the letter palace.

When she went to the palace from the city gate, she was still a little uneasy. Rao said that Liu Yu had said that Liu Zhao had calmed down a lot. She still couldn't help but secretly guess with Que'er. it is good.

She didn't believe what Liu Yu said was true until the carriage and horses reached the gate of the palace.

Beside the familiar wide door and high wall, Liu Zhao was dressed neatly for the first time in history, with both hands flat on his chest, and greeted him upright.

When she got closer, Ah Shu realized that under Liu Zhao's obedient appearance, the stiffness on his face and the stubbornness in his eyes had not completely disappeared. It was just because of the power of the people around him, Fang Qi didn't dare to show his restraint. Obviously these times. I suffered a lot during the day.

Looking at the woman beside her, she was about seventy years old, with gray hair on the temples, and her face was full of ravines. She was dressed in simple clothes, but she was in good spirits.

Although Feng Li had a smile on her face and her behavior was exceptionally upright, her tightly pursed lips and sharp eyes showed a somewhat upright look everywhere, no wonder Liu Zhao was afraid.

Only when Ah Shu got off the carriage, Feng Nuo looked at Liu Zhao, who was beside her.

The corners of Liu Zhao's lips fell, twisting twice, but he stepped forward reluctantly, bowed straight to Ah Shu, and called out "Second Sister-in-law".

Only then did Feng Mi nodded in approval, and she followed along with all the servants and maids to call "Queen".

After a year of marriage, Ah Shu heard Liu Zhao call her "Second Sister-in-law" for the first time, she was stunned for a while, and Queer looked at each other quietly, Fang smiled, nodded at her and called "Uncle and Sister".

In any case, Liu Zhao's willingness to change her words was a great change. For the first time, she felt as if she was being slowly accepted by this family, and her heart was full of mixed feelings, which was indescribable.

In the end, Liu Zhao's child has a serious temperament, so he called that "Second Sister-in-law" just now, and felt humiliated. Thinking of the cynicism towards A Shu in the past, he thought that A Shu would take the opportunity to raise her eyebrows and ridicule her, but unexpectedly She was all smiles, gentle and polite, and there was no other action.

She tried hard to see some clues of falsification in Ah Shu's eyes, but she stared at it for a long time, but still found nothing, so she turned her eyes away angrily, for fear that people would see her guilty conscience and surprise.

In the past few months, she has learned about the behavior of the sister-in-law in the past, and she feels hateful and pitiful, and she is even more regretful that she has not discriminated between right and wrong. Like a clown jumping on a beam, everyone else is just watching her jokes.

But even so, it does not mean that she will treat Zhao Ji as close as a family from now on. In her subconscious, she could never forget the relationship between Zhao Ji and Zhang Hou, and unconsciously thought of him as the same vicious person as Zhang Hou.

Although after getting along for a long time, she didn't seem to find any traces of Zhao Ji's impurity, but she was still annoyed.

At this moment, with Feng Li by her side, she had to take advantage of her not paying attention and quietly stare at Zhao Ji firmly to show her dissatisfaction.

It's just that Ah Shu didn't have time to take a closer look at her face. There were a nurse and a maid beside her, who were leading the two children, Po Nu and A Dai, across the high threshold and walking towards her.

Mrs. Fan is terminally ill and has been detained. The two young sons are temporarily raised by Feng Mi. Now that the queen is back, it is natural to come to see her.

It's just because the two children have heard slander before, and they have spoken rudely to Ashu. Although they are young and have little memory, there are still some shadows. At this moment, two pairs of slightly timid eyes are looking at Ashu, especially Adai. His eyes were wet, as if he was about to cry in the next moment.

Ashu didn't care about children either. Now, seeing these two pitiful figures carved in pink and jade, she felt more and more pity. , and bowed in person and handed it to the two children.

Po Nu is a little older and a boy, more vigilant than his younger sister, hesitantly looking at the thing in front of him, showing a little longing, but he endured it and didn't extend his hand.

On the other hand, A Dai thought for a moment, and then looked up to see A Shu's sweet and charming smiling face, she immediately forgot her fear, smiled and showed her two small deciduous teeth, took the plaything she handed over, and played happily.

Feng Li has been watching carefully. She was a little older and knew a lot of people, but after a moment, she realized that the queen was not a small-bellied, mean and unkind person, and then she showed a slightly approving look and nodded to the wet nurse beside her.

The wet nurse took her little hand and said warmly, "This is the queen's kindness, the son will accept it."

Although Po Nu was still skeptical, in the end he had a good relationship with the nursing mother, and seeing that his sister had already taken it, he took it carefully, and hesitantly bowed his hands to thank A Shu, like a little adult.

A Shu looked at his guarded appearance, and his heart was a little sour.

The two children have lost their father, and now Mrs. Fan can't rely on them, so she really depends on others. She remembered how she lost her mother when she was young and lost her father when she was young, and she felt more and more loving, so she squatted down, lifted the broken slave up, and tried her best to be kind: "You don't have to be so polite, I'm an aunt and we are all from the same family. people."

She said and waited for a while.

But the child was timid and still refused to call out that "aunt".

She was a little disappointed, she stood up with a smile, and the wet nurse and maids brought them back.

When they reached the palace, Liu Zhao went back to the house first, leaving Feng Ni and A Shu.

Although Feng Yu observed this journey for only a moment, she saw that although this queen was young, and she did not have much to deal with Liu Yu in her background, not only was she born beautiful, but she also behaved calmly and calmly. He should be a good boy with solid eyes.

She became more and more satisfied, and her originally solemn face also eased a lot: "Queen, don't worry, children are not as good as elders. , whether he is an elder or a child, as long as he treats him with sincerity, the ice will eventually melt one day."

This is to remind A Shu, whether it is Po Nu and A Dai, or Liu Yu and Liu Zhao, as long as she abides by her duty and has kind thoughts, there will always be a day of change.

Ah Shu was stunned, realizing that this Feng woman was sincerely comforting her.

Although Feng Yu was not a relative of Liu Yu, she was respected like a relative.

This is about the first time in this family that someone has treated her with such sincerity and good intentions. In the past year, not to mention Mrs. Fan and Liu Zhao, even Liu Ruo, who has become a lot closer to her now, has never thought about this for her.

She felt a little moved in her heart, so she endured the enthusiasm in her eyes and nodded solemnly: "I will definitely remember what I just said."

After Feng Nuo left, Ashu returned to the house and put the luggage with her again.

After half a year of separation, there was no change in the bedroom, except that she took some boxes when she left that day and put them back now, and the couch, bed, curtain, screen and other objects have not been touched. .

The two pieces of clothing she had left that day were still in their original places, and even the pillows between the beds were still side by side.

As soon as Ah Shu sat by the bed, she could smell the scent of flowers and fruits that she used to use in the quilted tent.

The maid in Youxin Palace said, "These days when the queen is not here, the king said that the queen's scent was strange and good, so she never let her change it."

Just as he was talking, another servant girl came to report: "Just now, the Great King ordered someone to spread the word. There are many things to do today, and I will be back in half an hour in the evening."

The servants and servants next to him were a little surprised. In the past, it was rare for the king to report his whereabouts. Now it is only half an hour later, and he even specially ordered someone to tell him. It is really different.

Ah Shu was accustomed to it, and only said "I know", and ordered someone to bring two more words.

Since that day in Handan, Liu Xiu began to report her whereabouts every day. Even if she went all the way to the station, he must tell him how late he would arrive.

At first, she couldn't figure it out, but later she learned Deng Wan's style, and from time to time she brought some things or two thoughtful words, which unexpectedly made him happy, and for several nights, he hugged him. Kissed her for a long time.

She also gradually got some experience. Sure enough, men are like what my sister-in-law said, they have to be tamed slowly and carefully crafted.

Since he is trying his best to get better, she will naturally give face.

…

In the evening, Liu Zhao, following Feng's advice, followed the rules of the province in the morning and evening, and came to greet Ashu.

She was extremely reluctant, and Ah Shu was flattered. The two of them stood across the threshold and only said three words, and they passed the scene.

After Liu Zhao left, the wet nurse also brought Po Nu and A Dai.

It was about before the arrival that the nursing mother said a lot of good things to the two children, and it was probably because of the plaything that Ah Shu had previously given them to please them. At this time, the two children were a little less restrained than when they first met today.

Because Ashu has more Chang'er at home, and now is the time when she loves these children, she can't help but reach out and squeeze Adai's pink and round face, and say a few jokes.

She saw that it was still early, and Liu Xiu should have more than half an hour to return, so she personally sent the two children back to the house.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Liu Yu, who was supposed to be home late, came back.

He was originally due to return later due to some incidents in the Xishan Army. Who knew that it was handled much faster than expected, so I came back first.

There was no figure of Ah Shu in the house, so she asked the maid to find out, and she took the two children to Feng Mi's place.

Thinking of Po Nu and A Dai, he was a little suffocated, and his eyes flashed slightly. In a blink of an eye, he didn't think much of it, and went into the inner room after changing his clothes.

Because Ah Shu was not there, he felt a little lost, and he didn't rush to take a bath, but sat in the room for a while.

The familiar fragrance of flowers, fruits, plants and trees in the inner room faintly entered his nose, causing his heart to move slightly.

The small sachet that Ah Shu had made for him earlier didn't know where it was in the house at the moment.

He used to bring it with him from time to time, but when he went out to the expedition last time, he was in a hurry to change his clothes, and it fell into the house for a while and did not take it out.

At this time, he suddenly had a whim, and started to rummage around the house.

When a maid entered and asked what he was looking for, he just waved his hand to teach people to go down.

After about half an hour, he had already searched the makeup and the shelf.

The sachet was not found, but he saw a small golden key in Ah Shu's makeup. His heart moved, and he turned around and rummaged in the nearby box again.

The sachet has not yet been found, but he has a small boxy wooden box in his hand, with a small golden lock hanging on it.

His heart fluttered slightly again.

Not long ago, A Shu's strangeness appeared in front of her one by one. When I listened carefully, it was still silent outside, and no one approached.

He hesitated again and again, but it was a ghost who took out the small key from his own makeup and put it into the keyhole.

Only a soft click was heard, and the golden lock opened in response.

The wooden box was opened, revealing the pieces of silk and silk, and the faint lines of red and green.

Is it A Shu's painting? But if it is an ordinary painting, why should it be locked in a box like this?

He hesitantly reached out his hand, took out the pieces of silk, and spread them out one by one on the table.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't look, he can't move his eyes away any longer.

Although the vivid paintings are not comparable to Ah Shu in terms of technique and charm, the content is really novel and rich, which makes him have a strange novelty and desire.

Unexpectedly, she would have such a thing!

He couldn't help but turn over the dozen pieces of silk carefully, then again, and again.

The men and women in the painting became blurred, and they gradually turned into himself and Shu in his mind, and the still picture seemed to be able to move.

The more he looked, the more frightened he became. He felt his blood boiled and his mind was confused. After a long while, he hurriedly threw the pile of silk into the box and locked it.

He sat for a while, when he heard the maid outside say "queen", he jumped up like a needle, and threw the wooden box and key back to the original place, not daring to meet Ah Shu, so he panicked. escape into the bathroom.
