Chapter 205 Reunion

Xiaoman sits in the flower hall of the inn listening to music during the day.The sky is bright and the air is clear, the wind is pleasant, and the little sister who sings the song plucks the strings and sings a little tune that she doesn't understand, as if it has a hypnotic effect, making her drowsy.

Mai'er brought a bowl of warm red bean milk and bird's nest soup, "Miss, the bird's nest is ready."

Xiaoman rubbed his eyes, picked up the bird's nest and drank it while admiring: "Drinking the bird's nest, I seem to be a lot more dignified."

"Although this is the best bird's nest in Huzhou City, it is still inferior to the official bird's nest offered as a tribute." Maier said, "My master heard that Miss has recently fallen in love with bird's nest, and has ordered someone to go to Nanyi to buy it. It will be delivered to the lady soon."

Xiao Man didn't speak, but kept his eyes on Sing Qu'er's sister.

"By the way, the grapes that the general sent someone to purchase from Dongying Country have arrived, I'll go and wash some," Mai'er said.

"Wait," Xiaoman called to stop Mai'er, "I don't need to wash it, I don't really want to eat recently."

Mai'er was a little surprised, "It's the first time I heard that Miss doesn't want to eat grapes."

"Well, maybe I've eaten too much and I'm a little tired." Xiaoman finished eating the bird's nest in the bowl, put down the bowl and said, "Share those grapes among you in private."

She got up and left the flower hall and returned to the room.

Study ink, write letters.

After a while, the letter was written.

Standing by the bed, she took out a jade whistle from her sleeve and blew it softly.The sound of the whistle was very similar to the sound of birdsong, and soon attracted a green bird.

Xiaoman rolled up the letter and put it on the blue bird's lap, and whispered a few words in the little bird's ear.

The bird spread its wings and flew to the southwest, and soon disappeared beyond the courtyard wall.

"Tomorrow, I will need more bluebirds from Guan Ju Song..." Xiao Man leaned against the edge of the window and said to himself.

At this time, Mai'er came to report: "Miss, the master will be back soon, and I want you to wait in the front hall first."

"Come back when you come back, why do you still ask me to meet him?" Xiaoman complained and walked outside the house.

When he arrived at the front hall, Lei Yuxiu happened to step into the gate of the inn.Behind him was a young man who looked very similar to Lei Yuxiu and a hale and hearty man.

Seeing the person coming, Xiao Man rushed forward to greet him immediately, and smiled when he saw the boy: "Yu Qi? Is that you?"

The boy smiled like the sun rising in summer: "Sister-in-law still remember me?"

"Long time no see, I've grown so tall, I'm totally a young man." Lei Yuqi, who was still a child in his impression, was already an adult when we saw each other, and he was actually very similar to the one when he first met Lei Yuxiu , which made Xiaoman very surprised, "You actually look exactly like your brother when he was a boy."

"Xiao Man, do you still remember who I am?" The man who arrived with Lei Yuqi asked Xiao Man.

Xiao Man looked at him, he was about 50 years old, he was very tall and tall, but he didn't have any impression in his memory.

Seeing Xiaoman's puzzled face, the man's eyes were somewhat disappointed.

Seeing this, Lei Yuxiu quickly introduced: "Xiaoman, this is Chang Zongbing, don't you remember?"

Xiaoman was taken aback for a moment, and looked at this person carefully again, feeling helpless.She has no memory of Chang Xiaoman before the age of 14, so it is impossible to recognize Chang Zongbing.

Chang Zongbing saw Xiao Man with a dazed face, and he was a little embarrassed: "That's all, after all, I haven't seen him for many years, so I can understand if I don't remember."

Xiao Man settled down, feeling strange.Chang Zongbing has been missing for many years, but now he appears with Lei Yuqi. It seems that the two of them are in good spirits. I think they have lived a good life in the past few years.If so, why did it take so long to reappear, how did Lei Yuxiu meet them, and what role did the Shangguan family play in this.Thinking of these doubts, Xiao Man raised his head and asked straight to the point: "Where have you been all these years?"

Although Xiaoman asked so suddenly, Chang Zongbing seemed to have prepared his speech a long time ago, and said with a smile: "I was escorted into exile back then, came to Huzhou, was rescued by Shangguan county magistrate, and lived incognito in the city of Huzhou all these years several years."

Xiaoman asked Lei Yuqi again: "Yuqi, what about you? Why are you here?"

Lei Yuqi said frankly: "The Lei Mansion was killed that year, Brother Xiu and I fled separately, and were rescued by the Shangguan's family and sent to Huzhou."

"So, does the Shangguan family have a great favor for Lei Shi?" Xiaoman looked at Lei Yuxiu sideways, and asked with something in his words.

Lei Yuxiu heard that Xiaoman's tone was wrong, but he didn't answer.

Mai'er came out at this time and called out: "General, lunch is ready, you can sit down." Then, he welcomed Lei Yuxiu, Chang Zongbing and Lei Yuqi into the room.

Xiao Man followed at the end, looked coldly at the people in front, sank his mind, and followed everyone to the table.

During the dinner, Chang Zongbing and Lei's two brothers talked about their childhood fun, and occasionally mentioned Xiaoman's childhood.

The past that he had never experienced made Xiaoman feel really embarrassed, unable to intervene or leave the meeting.Moreover, she had no appetite for the table full of food, she just wanted to finish early and go back to her room to take a nap.

When Lei Yuxiu and Chang Zongbing talked about the past, only Yuqi asked Xiang Xiaoman: "Sister-in-law's complexion is not good, is she feeling unwell?"

As soon as these words came out, both Lei Yuxiu and Chang Zongbing looked at Xiaoman.

Xiaoman felt that Lei Yuqi was an angel baby, so he nodded quickly and said, "I'm in a hurry to eat in the morning, and my stomach is not very comfortable now."

Lei Yuxiu immediately became nervous: "Mai'er, hurry up and invite the doctor for Miss."

Maier immediately took the order to retreat.

Chang Zongbing saw that Xiaoman's expression was really bad: "Since you are not in good health, go and rest quickly. Since you and my father and daughter have met, there will be a long time to come, there is always time to talk more."

Xiaoman nodded, got up and saluted, "Father and the general are chatting, I'll go and rest for a while."

After all, Xiaoman left the restaurant without looking back, and returned to the room.

Soon the doctor was invited by Maier.

The doctor checked Xiao Man's pulse, looked at Xiao Man's complexion, and said: "You are just thinking too much and not resting well. The old man can just prescribe a few calming medicines."

"Thank you doctor." Xiaoman said politely.

Maier took the doctor to prescribe a prescription, while Xiaoman sat in the room and took out the playbook to continue reading.

At this time, Lei Yuxiu opened the door and came in, and sat beside Xiaoman with some concern: "I heard from the doctor that you haven't had a good rest recently, did you not sleep well at night?"

"Well, you're not here, I have some insomnia." Xiao Man's voice was as soft as the wind, his face was like a peach blossom in spring rain, and he lowered his eyes to look at the drama.

It was rare for Lei Yuxiu to see her obedient and coquettish appearance, and he felt pity in his heart, and said softly, "I'll come back to accompany you tonight."

"Will Zongbing Chang and Yuqi continue to stay in Huzhou, or will they come with us when we return to Beijing?" Xiao Man asked, changing the subject.

"Although Chang Zongbing has settled in Huzhou, he wants to respect your opinion on whether he wants to return to Beijing with us." Lei Yuxiu said, "However, he is still exiled by the court, and there is still risk in returning to Beijing without authorization. My opinion is Let him continue to stay in Huzhou. However, it depends on what you think in the end."

"Since returning to Beijing is risky, and he is used to life in Huzhou, let him stay here." Xiaoman said, "As long as we know that others are fine, we can rest assured."

"Well, good." Lei Yuxiu held Xiaoman's hand in his palm.

"Will Yuqi come back to Beijing with us?"

"I want him to go back to the army with me to train. After all, he is a descendant of the Lei family. He must learn to march and fight."

"En." Xiaoman nodded in agreement with Lei Yuxiu's approach.

"Then I'll send them back first, and come back tonight to have dinner with you," Lei Yuxiu kissed Xiaoman's forehead lightly. "Recently, I discovered a soup dish called water shield soup. It tastes very good, and I have asked Maier to prepare it." You have a bad appetite, the soup list is refreshing, just try it."

"Where are you going to send them? Where are they living now?" Xiao Man asked.

"Shangguan Lu arranged a hidden place for them to protect their safety."

"It seems that the Shangguan family has already laid the groundwork, waiting for the day when you regain control of Dapei's military power, so that you can act as a benefactor to the Lei family." Xiao Man said suddenly.

Lei Yuxiu was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile, "It's just a bet, and they happened to bet right on this one."

"It seems that you get along very well with them at Shangguan's house these few days. Are you going to cooperate with Lord Shangguan?" Xiaoman asked with a smile.

Lei Yuxiu hugged Xiaoman: "They are just an interest group, and it just so happens that our goals are the same. You don't have to worry about these court affairs, just wait for me to come back."

"Yeah, you go, I'll sleep for a while, and I'll wait for you to come back to drink the vegetable soup you mentioned." Xiao Man sent Lei Yuxiu out with a smile.

"Go and take a nap, I'll come back as soon as possible." Said Lei Yuxiu left Xiaoman's room, and helped her close the door.

Xiaoman leaned against the door panel, slid down the door in a sense of loss, and finally squatted on the ground, hugging herself tightly.

If everything is as Hei Yao said, then she must be sober, and she must not help the tyrant to do harm, and let herself make mistakes again and again.
