When Gu Qingzhou arrived in Pingcheng, it was also snowing in Pingcheng.

The weeping willows on both sides of the road were covered with fine snow, and the willow branches swayed, scattering the snow like catkins in the sky.

Gu Qingzhou got out of the car at the door of Si Xingpei's official residence.

Sister-in-law Zhu had already taken Ah Xiao to greet her.

In the cold weather, Ah Xiao's son's little face was flushed, but he blinked his big eyes and looked at Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou's eyes were slightly hot.

"Ma'am!" Sister-in-law Zhu stepped forward and took her hand. Maybe she has been standing for too long, and Sister-in-law Zhu's hands are also cold - a little rough and cold, which can stick to people's hearts.

Gu Qingzhou followed them inside.

"Madam, you won't leave when you come back this time, right?" Sister-in-law Zhu asked.

Gu Qingzhou was embarrassed: "I still have to go back, the matter of Taiyuan Mansion is not over yet"

She was about to explain carefully, but Sister-in-law Zhu said: "I understand, the young marshal has said that the wife is going to do serious things with the young marshal now."

Gu Qingzhou nodded.

When she came back, the house was more lively than the New Year, Sister-in-law Zhu began to fry and cook, and the kitchen was full of the fragrance of food. Yumori's little short legs ran in and out, taking some hot little things to eat in his hands from time to time, and his mouth was full of oil.

Gu Qingzhou looked at them, and his heart was warm.

"Madam, drink soup first to warm up." Ah Xiao helped and served the boiled peanut pig's trotter soup to Gu Qingzhou, and there were ginger slices in it.

Gu Qingzhou picked it up and drank it.

I haven't eaten the soup stewed by Sister-in-law Zhu for a long time, and Gu Qingzhou feels like A Xiao's two-year-old son at the moment, like a greedy little hairy child.

Just as he was drinking happily, Si Xingpei came back.

As soon as he came back, he hugged her tightly and said with a smile: "What about eating alone?"

After not seeing him for a few days, Gu Qingzhou was stunned and felt a sense of grandeur.

Ah Xiao brought another bowl of soup, the same as Gu Qingzhou's, and said, "Young marshal, you also warm up."

"Thank you." Si Xingpei took it.

With the help of other cooks, Sister-in-law Zhu was busy preparing a large table of dishes in half an hour.

Si Xingpei sent someone to invite Ah Xiao's husband Yuchuan as well.

Five adults with one child sat around the table, and the room was full of warmth.

It is all famous dishes of Yuecheng, including cherry meat, stewed lion's head, shredded leek chicken, female oilboat duck, jade hoof tendon and so on.

In addition to poultry and livestock, there are also aquatic products, Gu Qingzhou's favorite shrimp balls, various fish, pomfret with scallion oil, marinated herring, and braised hairtail.

Some other home-cooked side dishes such as mushroom choy sum, sesame spinach, crab, etc.

Gu Qingzhou didn't raise his head when he ate.

In the days of Taiyuan Mansion, I often have gluttony at night, and I especially miss my hometown food. Sister-in-law Zhu will do these, and Gu Qingzhou's nurses will all do it.

Thinking of the nurse working hard to be a Jiangnan person and learning Jiangnan cuisine, Gu Qingzhou's mood was inexplicably tense.

Soon, her sadness was diluted by the food, and she ate the most fierce pot of crabs, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the bottom, and went to clip the huge lion's head.

"Eat slowly, how hungry are you?" Si Xingpei couldn't cry or laugh.

Gu Qingzhou looked up and saw Sister-in-law Zhu's face crying, she hurriedly explained: "I am also clothed and fed in Taiyuan Mansion, but I can't eat the dishes made by Sister-in-law Zhu." It's so delicious. ”

Sister-in-law Zhu wiped the water from the corner of her eyes: "Mrs., finish things and go home early, Sister-in-law Zhu will make you delicious food every day."

Gu Qingzhou nodded vigorously.

She ate very well, so Si Xingpei took her for a walk. He wrapped a scarf around her and said, "Be careful if you eat the wind, you will hurt the food."

Gu Qingzhou tried to cover his mouth and nose as much as possible.

She and Si Xingpei walked along the garden, talking and talking about the "Goddess Sect".

That's it.

Speaking of that troupe, Si Xingpei said: "You gave too much money."

"Poor people." Gu Qingzhou said.

Si Xingpei put his arm around her shoulder, kissed her, and said, "There is nothing bad about doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, you did the right thing."

When he said so, Gu Qingzhou's heart became more down-to-earth.

This time I returned to Jiangnan, in addition to eating delicious food, I also had to visit relatives and friends.

After he went home, he went to the garrison the next day, but he instructed the adjutant to prepare the plane and send Gu Qingzhou to Nanjing and then to Yuecheng.

Gu Qingzhou didn't feel anything when he saw Si Qiongzhi, but he was deeply touched when he saw Si Qiongzhi.

Si Qiongzhi became mature and steady, looking at Gu Qingzhou's eyes, there was no longer the previous hostility.

Although it was a little awkward, she still greeted Gu Qingzhou and said, "Are you coming back for the New Year this time?"

"No, just come back a year ago and see." Gu Qingzhou said.

Si Qiongzhi nodded, although he didn't call Gu Qingzhou, he also showed a bit of rare kindness.

When I arrived in Yuecheng, it was much more lively.

Although Yan Yiyuan has not come back yet, and Huo Huijing has no news, he can't stop the laughter of the Yan family.

Gu Qingzhou stayed in Yuecheng for two nights.

Yuzao, who was almost a year old, opened her big black eyes and looked at Gu Qingzhou curiously.

At night, Gu Qingzhou slept with her in her arms, but she didn't cry.

Looking at her sleeping little face, Gu Qingzhou's heart was incredibly soft.

After Yuzao fell asleep, Gu Qingzhou chatted with Mrs. Yan and mentioned Yan Yiyuan.

Mrs. Yan's tears were uncontrollable.

She said to Gu Qingzhou: "Your father-in-law wants to find Xiao Wu back, I don't agree." Xiao Wu has not worried about food and clothing all his life, and he doesn't know what hardship is.

It is rare for him to be so affectionate for a person and so obsessed with one thing. His deep affection and persistence, if he is interrupted halfway, his life will be wasted. ”

Gu Qingzhou held Mrs. Yan's hand and said, "What you are worried about is right, you can't give up halfway in doing anything."

Mrs. Yan wiped her tears: "But I'm worried about his health, and I'm even more worried that he will spend his whole life."

This incident has always tormented Mrs. Yan.

Gu Qingzhou had to comfort her.

Huo Huijing and the sect leader used to be members of the royalist killer organization, and they were very good members, and they had a strong ability to evade tracking.

And Yan Yiyuan is almost an idiot in this regard.

Gu Qingzhou occasionally felt that even if they were in the same city, Yan Yiyuan would not be able to find them, unless Huo Yijing took the initiative to show up.

Yan Yiyuan's search has a bleak future.

"Mom, you should treat him as if he was the same as the eldest brother and the second brother, who went abroad to study, and then lived and worked abroad. You see, he sends you telegrams much more often than his two brothers. Gu Qingzhou said.

People sometimes need a ray of light.

This kind of dawn needs to shine right in that gap, otherwise no amount of comfort will help.

Gu Qingzhou's words are the dawn.

Mrs. Yan's eyes couldn't help but light up.

Yan Yiyuan has no enemies, his family often sends him money, all he does is travel everywhere, and he will report his safety everywhere he goes.

How is this different from other children?

"Qingzhou, you still know my heart." Mrs. Yan held back her tears.

This night, she finally got a good night's sleep.
