Chapter 19 Our Home
Su Cheng was still a child after all. After entering the house, he looked around, opened his round eyes wide, and exclaimed in a low voice,
"Butler Song, I brought these two back. I want to arrange a place for them to stay. Let them take a bath. Ask the servants to ask a doctor to check the legs of this...sister and prepare some food."
Butler Song looked at Su Cheng and liked him very much. He touched his hair and said, "Yes, Princess."
Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Wei Qingcheng.
"My Lord, are you back?"
"The prince is in the study and will leave as soon as the court is over. Princess, you must remind the prince to have lunch."
After answering, Song Rui took the mother and daughter away. Wei Qingcheng thought that Xie Jingyu's study must be confidential, so he asked the servants to serve the dishes and asked Yi Si to call Xie Jingyu to have lunch.
Yisi was really happy today. He ate the candied haws that he had been craving for for a long time, and chatted with Awu for a long time. He trotted to the study.
"Your Majesty! May I come in?"
"Enter,"
As soon as Yi Si entered the room, he saw Jia Yi, Bing San, and Ding Yu standing in a row in the room. The prince seemed to be assigning them some tasks. The atmosphere in the room was not right.
"Your Majesty, the princess is back, please come over for lunch!"
Yi Si bowed his back and replied,
After hearing what was said, the prince's expression seemed to ease a little. He waved his hand and asked them to go downstairs to eat, and then he went to the front hall.
…
There was a table full of various dishes in the front hall. When Wei Qingcheng saw Xie Jingyu coming in, she asked the servants to start serving the dishes.
The two of them sat together, and Wei Qingcheng took out the wrapped candied haws from her arms: "My Lord, this is for you."
Xie Jingyu looked at the candied haws and his thoughts flew away, and memories flooded into his mind.
"Eat some snacks first. Eat more. You're really hungry!"
The snowball-like child took out a piece of silk from his bosom, which contained different kinds of snacks.
He was too hungry to taste it, he just saw the different colors...
"What's wrong? Don't you like eating this?" Wei Qingcheng saw him staring at the candied haws in a daze.
"If you don't like it, don't eat it. Dad seldom let me eat it before, saying that eating too much would cause toothache. It should be fine if you eat less."
Xie Jingyu looked at the fluff on his side face that appeared in the sunlight, stared at him quietly and said: "I like it very much, I just want to taste it with you!"
He used his slender fingers to gently peel off the candy skin that was covered with paper scraps, carefully working as if he was processing a work of art. After the whole candied haws was clean, he handed it to Wei Qingcheng.
"Try it too. You're grown up now, so your teeth won't fall out."
Wei Qingcheng took one from his hand, held it in his mouth, and bit it with a little force. The candy skin mixed with the sour taste of hawthorn went into his mouth. He chewed it for a few times and felt a little pain in his palate.
He swallowed the rest and spat out a few kernels.
"Hiss, my mouth seems to be rotten,"
Xie Jingyu has been watching him, observing him carefully.
"Open your mouth, let me see,"
The red lips opened, and the rosy little tongue inside trembled a few times because of the stimulation of the sour taste.
Xie Jingyu glanced at it for a few seconds and then looked away. With red ears, she replied, "It must have been scratched by the candy. Be careful when you eat later. Don't eat the rest."
As if she was afraid that he would steal more, Xie Jingyu ate up the candied haws in a few big bites.
Wei Qingcheng had no choice but to eat her food, and when she ate, she tried to chew in small bites to avoid touching the wound.
During the meal, Wei Qingcheng brought up the matter of Su Cheng and his mother again.
"Your Majesty, I met a little beggar on the street today, so I brought him back. Is that okay?"
Xie Jingyu nodded.
"And his mother, I brought her back too."
Xie Jingyu still nodded.
After Wei Qingcheng finished testing, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"The little beggar said that his family suffered from famine, and he and his mother fled here. They had nowhere to go, so they hid in the residence of the abandoned concubine..."
Wei Qingcheng was afraid that Xie Jingyu would have a bad impression of Su Cheng, so she didn't mention the incident of him talking about Awu's money bag.
However, Xie Jingyu's face did not look good. After Wei Qingcheng told him the whole story,
He calmed down a bit.
"Qingcheng, you can make the decision on these. Just like you told Su Cheng, this is your home. There's no need to ask me so cautiously."
As he spoke, he personally served Wei Qingcheng a bowl of soup.
Wei Qingcheng blushed and nodded, then he said:
"Next time you go out, take a few more people with you, it will be safer,"
Wei Qingcheng agreed and secretly turned to look at him. He had seen many people, some of whom were profit-seeking, some of whom pursued fame and fortune, and some of whom were treacherous.
He had never seen someone like Xie Jingyu, who seemed to want nothing but be good to him, just like a father and mother, but they had no blood relationship before.
What does Xie Jingyu want?
What are you greedy for?
Wei Qingcheng bit the spoon and didn't think of anything. He just looked at half of Xie Jingyu's face until he made the man cough, then he turned his head away.
"Um~eat, eat!"

Jialiju——
Jiapin drew her eyebrows and said, "That old pervert has fallen in love with a prostitute recently. I am a little helpless."
The man in black stood behind her and spoke
"My Lord has already known about this matter. My Lord has ordered me to ask the Queen if she wants a child of her own."
Jiapin put down Luodai, stood up, pinched the corner of the table, hatred almost jumped out of her eyes: "You want me to bear a child for that old pervert? Dream on! I will never bear a child for my enemy!"
Hei Yi seemed surprised by her reaction: “That’s not what your Excellency meant.
Jiapin sat down again: "What does that mean?"
The man in black walked forward and leaned close to her ear...
Then Jiapin nodded, and the man in black disappeared into the night...
——————————————
The woman's illness seemed to have improved in the past few days, and Su Cheng came to see Wei Qingcheng every day.
"A jasper is made into a tall tree, with thousands of green silk ribbons hanging down.
I don't know who cut out these fine leaves, the spring breeze in February is like a pair of scissors.
Brother, am I good at reciting it? ”
A clean child is always lovable. Wei Qingcheng asked the maid to tie his hair into a bun, which stood round on his head and looked very cute.
He rubbed Dough's face and said, "Oh, you recited it really well. Ah Cheng is getting better and better. I taught you twice yesterday, and you remembered it. You are so good!"
Su Cheng chuckled and generously put his face forward for him to pinch.
Wei Qingcheng picked up the book and began to teach him another poem: "This poem was given by the poet to his good friend. It was written to see him off."
"Brother, how do you pronounce this word?"
The two of them were very harmonious, one asking and the other answering. Xie Jingyu looked at this scene and was actually a little envious of Su Cheng.
"The prince is here!"
Wei Qingcheng handed the book to Su Cheng.
