At this moment, Zhao Rong wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Well, before going in, I'll beat a certain little fox demon to death first, and put justice above my own, so I won't bring this little fool in.

How dare you, Su Xiaoxiao, how dare you... Zhao Rong felt very depressed.

Su Xiaoxiao was still a little confused and looked bewildered.

Seeing that the dining table suddenly became quiet and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward, she glanced at Zhao Lang, whose "resenting eyes" seemed real, and then carefully glanced at her two sisters who were... "staring at him with death".

"Zhao Lang, didn't you say that doing needlework for your lover is a natural thing to do, no matter if the needle pricks your hand or hurts your hand...well, you even told Xiaoxiao that this is one of the correct ways for a virtuous woman who manages the household and loves her husband to use her skillful hands...you said it is very normal..." Su Xiaoxiao wrinkled her cute little nose and muttered a few words.

Zhao Rong: “…”

Zhao Lingfei and Xiao Qianer: "..."

The two girls glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who had a look of innocent confusion on her face.

Then,

She turned her head silently and looked at her husband.

“!!!” Zhao Rong.

Wait, let me explain...

The two girls looked calm, but the half-smiles they gave him really gave him a headache.

There is also Su Xiaoxiao...

My goodness, Zhao Rong didn't even remember saying this to her. It seemed like he was coaxing her in bed while on the road before. After all, the silly girl would behave well every time he coaxed her with a few words, so he didn't even remember the words he said casually. But now... Xiaoxiao actually thought it was something normal for a girl to do for her lover and blurted it out without restraint.

"Ah, is... is this true?" Zhao Rong looked at Su Xiaoxiao with a puzzled and sincere expression.

“How come there isn’t…” the little fox demon couldn’t help but mutter, but she stopped talking quietly in the middle of the sentence. After looking at Zhao Lang for three seconds, Su Xiaoxiao immediately turned her head and said to Sister Lingfei and Sister Qian’er beside her, “No, no, that’s not what I meant. What I meant was that Zhao Lang’s needle… No… Zhao Lang’s needlework… Bah bah is not right either… I meant that sewing for Zhao Lang doesn’t hurt your hands, it hurts. It’s normal sewing, the kind where you hold the needle in one hand and the embroidery silk in the other hand. It’s not… it’s the kind where you use both hands, so it hurts…”

Su Xiaoxiao quickly explained.

However, under the strange looks of her two sisters, her voice became smaller and smaller, until it sounded as soft as a mosquito or fly... She was scared.

Zhao Rong wanted to slap his forehead fiercely. What a stupid teammate, what a great assist...

What a...

Stupid fox.

Su Xiaoxiao looked around cautiously and became a little anxious.

She just reacted:

Um, Xiao Xiao really didn’t mean to flatter Sister Ling Fei and Sister Qian Er, to show off that she had done needlework for Zhao Lang… Woohoo, she hadn’t even offered tea and walked in completely, how could she possibly be so flattering to the two sisters, she didn’t even have time to act cute…

Fortunately, this awkward atmosphere did not last long.

Concubine Zhao Ling suddenly said, "Xiaoxiao, is this the sachet you made? Well, your needlework is really good."

She looked at it, raised her head and smiled, shaking the small sachet in her hand to indicate.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head and twisted her hands together, a little embarrassed, "I did it... Thank you Sister Lingfei, it's for the needlework he learned on the road."

She raised her little head and said with courage: "Sister Lingfei is also very good. I have seen the clothes you made for Zhao Lang. They are more solid than Xiaoxiao's. Xiaoxiao can only make small things like handkerchiefs and sachets... Zhao Lang's clothes and other big items have to be made by Sister Lingfei herself."

Concubine Zhao Ling smiled faintly, stretched out her white hand, and placed it on the back of the hand of the fox-eyed girl in front of her who was particularly talkative tonight.

The girl is well-behaved and sensible...it makes people feel distressed.

“No.” The autumn-eyed woman said, “Let’s do it together in the future. We can weave together. I can’t do it, or there are some things that I am not good at, so I still need to ask you for advice, little sister.”

"Sister Lingfei, I...I..." The little fox demon waved her hands excitedly, looking at the gentle sister in front of her who accepted her with wide eyes, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Zhao Rong was also staring at it in amazement.

He looked at the two girls carefully, stared at them for a while, then turned his head silently, looked at the dusk outside the window, and the corners of his mouth curled up quietly.

"What more could I ask for?"

"Brother Rong'er, what did you say?" Xiao Qian'er turned her head in confusion and heard some faint murmurs coming from him.

"Nothing." Zhao Rong smiled and looked at the three girls. "I just said that the tea is ready. Drink it while it's hot. Otherwise, you have to go to the kitchen to boil water."

Concubine Zhao Ling nodded, glanced at her husband, then turned her head and looked at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Little sister, it's just a formality..."

"I do! Mmm! I do, I do..."

Su Xiaoxiao raised her little head and quickly jumped off the stool when she heard her speak halfway.

The two little hands were waving around, not knowing where to put them.

"Don't be nervous." Zhao Lingfei laughed, shook her head and comforted her.

However, Concubine Zhao Ling remained seated and did not ask Su Xiaoxiao to sit down with her.

She sat facing south towards the door. The little fox demon put away the small bookcase, put his hands behind his back, and stood obediently in front of her.

"Brother Rong'er." Xiao Qian'er leaned over and bumped into Zhao Rong who was standing beside her with a tea tray. She reached out to take the tea tray from his hand, then raised her chin and lightly tapped the empty seat next to the young lady as a gesture.

"Oh oh!" After receiving the reminder, Zhao Rong hurriedly lowered his head to tidy up his clothes, coughed twice, and under the gaze of the three women in the room, he walked forward and sat next to Concubine Zhao Lingfei.

The childhood sweethearts sat side by side.

These are the male owner and the female owner of the "Old Zhao Family".

The family that Zhao Rong wants to protect and be "united" with is still very small, but in this era, no matter how loving and harmonious they are in private, there must still be some rules in public.

This is also,

Sense of ceremony.

Zhao Qian'er brought the tea with a smile and stood beside Su Xiaoxiao, responsible for serving the tea.

The two maids stood respectfully in front of Zhao Rong and Zhao Lingfei.

The little fox demon blinked her eyes and looked at Sister Lingfei eagerly. She was almost about to turn around and let Sister Lingfei "fully examine" her...

Concubine Zhao Ling seemed not to notice Su Xiaoxiao's eager gaze at first.

She turned her head first.

Pursed lips,

She looked carefully at the expression of her husband who was sitting next to her.

The man turned his head and met the woman's clear eyes.

"Not hiding it anymore?"

From the time Zhao Rong closed his eyes and confessed to now when they were sitting side by side, she finally spoke to him.

"No." Zhao Rong shook his head once, then shook it again vigorously, and added: "I will never hide it from you again for the rest of my life."

"Actually..." She pursed her red lips.

"You can keep it a secret from me forever, as long as... you can keep it a secret for a lifetime.

I... and Qian'er,

willing."

She said.

Zhao Rong shook his head and refused.

The two looked at each other, as if no one was around.

The atmosphere in the room also became quiet along with their silence.

She suddenly asked, "Why?"

Zhao Rong knew that what she was asking was why he suddenly confessed so many things to her and Qian'er, especially the matter about Su Xiaoxiao. He had kept it hidden for so long, waiting for the opportunity. However, the opportunity had clearly come, but he not only did not use the feelings of the two women gained by "Giving the Moon" to exchange for a little fox demon, but also directly confessed the matter about Su Xiaoxiao without any preparation...

"If you don't use the 'any request' obtained from Zeng Yue to exchange for her, aren't you afraid that I won't agree to it later?" Zhao Lingfei continued to ask curiously, with the corners of her lips slightly raised, "Or...husband, you already know that we know of her existence, and you still let Uncle Xiaobai bring her back..." She bit her lip and guessed.

Zhao Rong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I really didn't know you already knew about Xiao Xiao, and I didn't expect Qingjun to stop her and Uncle Xiaobai from coming back... I was really caught off guard just now."

Zhao Lingfei recalled his dazed reaction just now, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips slightly.

She nodded, "Then why were you so bold to confess directly just now?"

“I just feel that…

I can't make any more mistakes. I started this mistake, so I should end it myself.

I want to have a harmonious family, and to have a harmonious family, I must first have a harmonious heart.

so,

Just said it." He stared at her and said truthfully.

"Oh." Concubine Zhao Ling looked at him for a while, lowered her eyes slightly, looked away, and gently lifted her hair at her temples.

It was quiet for a while.

"good."

She answered softly.

Zhao Rong suddenly said, "How beautiful."

"What?"

"I say, it's so beautiful... You look so beautiful when you wear this Jiutian Hangong flower." At this time, the side profile of Concubine Zhao Ling with the flower on was facing him.

Zhao Rong stared at it.

The Nine Heavens Cold Palace flower pinned on her temples was pure white, like a moon disk, casting a little light, embellishing her cheeks, which were gradually turning red.

Appreciate the beauty of flowers under the flowers and watch the beauty under the moon.

Concubine Zhao Ling was stunned.

Zhao Rong smiled warmly.

On the side, Xiao Qian'er pulled Su Xiaoxiao's hand, telling her not to be anxious, and then took her to watch the young lady and Rong'er brother, laughing together.

"Then... you are not allowed to look at it anymore." Concubine Zhao Ling lowered her eyes and said lightly, then stopped looking at him. She turned her head slightly and nodded to Xiao Qian'er who was holding the tea tray.

The latter understood and handed the tea forward.

Su Xiaoxiao, who had finally waited for this moment, quickly took it with both hands.

There are two cups of tea on the tray.

The little fox demon was very respectful at this time. She first served tea to Concubine Zhao Ling, and then to Zhao Rong.

"Sister Lingfei... Zhao Lang..."

A very well-behaved salute.

Zhao Rong and Concubine Zhao Ling drank tea.

The ceremony is over.

In Dali Jiyue Mountain, in front of the dining table of an ordinary elegant courtyard, a little fox demon from Qiantang Mountain finally entered Lao Zhao's house.

Zhao Rong and Zhao Lingfei reached out from both sides to help Su Xiaoxiao up.

"From now on we are a real family. Don't be so polite to me anymore." Zhao Lingfei said with a gentle smile.

"Yeah, Sister Lingfei!" Su Xiaoxiao said happily.

Zhao Rong, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment when he saw the two girls being as close as sisters.

This was the scene he had been thinking about day and night before tonight.

I even thought it was a luxury before.

I didn't expect... it would be so fast.

It still feels a bit unreal.

Zhao Rong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled brilliantly.

At this moment, he saw Su Xiaoxiao wiping her tears and smiling as she came closer to him, so he subconsciously stretched out his arms and opened his arms, just like he had done countless times in private before, to welcome the little fox demon Yu Yan into his arms.

And this time, he can finally appear in front of Qingjun and Qian'er openly.

However,

Next second.

Su Xiaoxiao threw herself into Sister Lingfei's arms, hugged her slender waist with her two little hands, and buried her little face in her chest.

The little fox demon hugged her and twisted her little body with joy.

He simply ignored the open arms of the person next to him, who had a look of relief and joy on his face just a second ago.

"..."Zhao Rong.

Concubine Zhao Ling looked down at her new sister who looked like a little child and smiled: "From now on, just call me sister. I will just call you Xiaoxiao, okay..."

"Okay!" Su Xiaoxiao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Sister! Sister!" she said sweetly.

"Little, little." Concubine Zhao Ling smiled.

“???” Zhao Rong.

Wait, wait!

What about me?

Me too!

No, Su Xiaoxiao, whose arms are you running into?

In front of the table, a man with outstretched arms lowered his head in a daze, looked at the empty arms, then turned to look at the autumn-eyed woman and fox-eyed girl who were hugging each other next to them. They were looking at each other affectionately, one with her head down and the other with her head up, as if no one else was around. The atmosphere was joyful, warm and beautiful.

At this time, Xiao Qian'er also put down the tea tray and jumped up happily, "Great!"

Then, the three girls hugged each other intimately.

Except someone.

The corners of Zhao Rong's mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.

Another twitch.

There is something wrong with you...

For my husband, this is...

"outsider"?

…
