A house full of cannon fodder reads my mind. Who knows? I’m going crazy.

Yan Bao and the others had a picnic on the grass, all filled with snacks to satisfy their cravings. After eating and drinking, they basked in the sun for a while before slowly going back.

Yan Bao asked A Huai, "When will you leave the capital?"

"There will be a lot of things to deal with on the construction site in the day after tomorrow. I can't leave for too long." Ah Huai knows his responsibilities. If the railway can be repaired, he is willing to spend time on the construction site.

His legs and feet are not good, but it does not prevent him from going up and down the mountain.

His father did not regard him as a useless person, which moved Ah Huai very much and hoped that his efforts would be recognized by his father.

"I'll see you off."

"Okay!" Ah Huai was happy.

Before Ah Huai left, he went to see the emperor. The emperor had lunch with him. The father and son chatted for a while, mostly about the construction of the railway and Ah Huai's marriage.

Ah Huai said: "Father, don't be in a hurry. Once the railway is repaired, we will consider getting married. Now the railway is a bit troublesome, so we have no plans to get married for the time being."

The emperor was so angry that he almost beat them. Neither of them wanted to get married. They had big ideas!

When he was the prince, the late emperor did whatever he said and never dared to bargain. Several of his sons were just here to collect debts, which made people worry.

The emperor became angry: "Okay, okay, don't get married, just be single!"

Ah Huai: "..."

Ahem, cough, if the father allows it, it's not impossible.

There is only one Yanbao in the world, and she already belongs to that boy Xie Zhiluo. I'm afraid she won't be able to find another one.

Don’t you have to be a bachelor?

Before leaving the palace, Ah Huai went to see Xie Zhiluo. The two brothers drank a cup of tea. Ah Huai said, "I will leave Beijing tomorrow. Yan Bao said he would see me off. Do you want to see me off?"

Xie Zhiluo was originally unwilling. The train station was right there and he couldn't run away.

If Yan Bao goes, it is impossible for Xie Zhiluo not to go.

Xie Zhiluo nodded: "Okay, what time is the train?"

"Ten o'clock." Ah Huai glanced at the watch on Xie Zhiluo's wrist and felt a little sad. It was given to Xie Zhiluo by Yan Bao. As far as he knew, only three people in Dajin had it.

One is the emperor, a fiftieth birthday gift from Yan Bao.

The other one was Shen Shoufu, also a birthday present from Yan Bao.

The other piece is the one on Xie Zhiluo's hand. It was a watch given by Yanbao last year, specially used to tell the time.

In addition to this watch, there is also a clock on the train to tell the time to avoid being late.

There is also a big clock at the station for everyone to watch the time together.

They have big clocks at home.

Ah Huai doesn't have such a small watch.

want to.

When he thought that Brother Shen didn't even have one, Ah Huai knew that with how much Yanbao valued his family, he had to be ranked behind Brother Shen.

Xie Zhiluo noticed Ah Huai's gaze and subconsciously pulled up his sleeves to cover his watch. This was his favorite thing. It could tell the time and it also represented Yan Bao's preference for him.

Knowing that Ah Huai wanted it, Yan Bao didn't give it to her. He only gave it to herself, not even her eldest brother. This shows how important she is to her heart.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhiluo felt happy.

Ah Huai looked at the way the corners of his mouth rose, and that look of secret joy was so irritating.

Ah Huai patted Xie Zhiluo on the shoulder: "Treat Yan Bao well. If Yan Bao still doesn't want to get married, don't force her."

Xie Zhiluo nodded: "I will see you off tomorrow."

"I know you want to see Yan Bao, but I won't expose you." Ah Huai waved his hand and left.

Xie Zhiluo smiled, admired the watch with lowered eyebrows, watched the hands move, and thought of the way Yan Bao looked when he gave her the watch. At that time, he wanted to kiss her, fearing to offend Yan Bao.

Only now do I realize that he should have kissed her then.

Yan Bao seemed to enjoy kissing her.

Thinking about this, his face became hot little by little, and the tips of his ears turned red. Xie Zhiluo's eyes were watery, gentle and affectionate.

Knowing that Ah Huai was leaving tomorrow, Yan Bao asked the kitchen to braise a pot of meat in the evening and made some lemon chicken feet. Tiantian ate the lemon chicken feet while praising her aunt for her good craftsmanship and how awesome she was.

Yan Bao was so praised that he pinched Tiantian's little mouth and said, "This little sweet mouth has not grown in vain. These are all yours. The others belong to grandma. You can help send them to your grandma."

Xiao Tiantian smiled and nodded, holding the box and going to find Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen came over by herself, and she was holding a bundle in her hand: "These are the shoes and socks that mother prepared for Prince Huai. It is also mother's sincere wish that you send them together."

Ah Huai lived in the Shen family for a while and had a good relationship with the Shen family over the years.

Mrs. Shen regarded him as her own son.

Ah Huai is also very close to Mrs. Shen. Although he doesn't say it out loud, he actually treats her as his mother.

Mrs. Shen also warned Yan Bao: "If you go to see someone off, you can see them off, but you can't not come back immediately. Your father said you are not allowed to run around, be careful of him getting angry."

"Mom, you are overthinking. Why am I running around? I will stay with my parents in the capital and won't go anywhere!" Yan Bao acted coquettishly while holding Mrs. Shen.

When Tiantian saw it, she also acted like a baby.

Being hugged by two little guys, one big and one small, Mrs. Shen couldn't get angry at all. She was so happy that she only had love for the two children in her eyes.

The next day, Yan Bao and Zi Yun took a carriage out of the city. There were many carriages on the way to the train station.

There is only one train every day, and many people cannot buy tickets. Tickets are very tight.

The Royal Carriage is different. Even if it is empty, no one else will be allowed to sit in it.

Ah Huai knew that Yan Bao was coming to see her off, so he arrived at the waiting hall of the train station early to wait. When he saw her, Ah Huai smiled and walked up to her. She walked too fast and her lameness became more obvious, but Yan Bao didn't mind at all.

"There's still half an hour, we'll catch up!" Yan Bao didn't expect that he would be almost late when he left the house.

The main reason was that someone's carriage broke down and blocked the road, so she almost arrived late.

Yan Bao prepared a box of food and drink, Mrs. Shen's shoes and socks, pills and ointments prepared by Xu Zhimo, and medicinal oils, etc., and wrote down the usage and efficacy.

This is Xu Zhimo's intention.

Ah Huai accepted it with a smile. Railway construction was basically done in the wild. These pills really helped a lot.

Yan Bao also presented a box, which was very exquisite and only about the size of a palm.

After collecting a lot of food that Yan Bao prepared to eat on the train, Ah Huai looked at the box and thought of the watch that Yan Bao gave to his father. It seemed to be such a small box.

Ah Huai was excited when he thought of something.

He wiped his body with his big hand and asked nervously and knowingly, "What...is it?"

"I'll prepare a birthday gift for you in advance. I guess you won't be returning to the capital for your birthday." Yan Bao also asked for it from Yuanyuan. She only had three watches in her space and gave them to her father, the emperor, Xie Zhiluo, and herself nothing.

Moreover, they were all male watches, so there was no use keeping them.

Men's watches are too big for girls.

She knew her eldest brother also wanted a piece, which she didn't have either.

I can only ask Sister Yuanyuan for help.

Sister Yuanyuan readily gave her two pieces.

Give one piece to Ah Huai today, and give the other piece to her eldest brother on his birthday.

As for the second brother Shen, didn't she have sister Yuanyuan, so she didn't bother.

"Open it and take a look!" Yan Bao urged.

Ah Huai couldn't wait to open it, and it turned out to be a watch. His eyes shone with surprise: "Hand... watch?"

Ah Huai couldn't believe it: "Given it to me?"

"Yes! Happy birthday to you in advance!" Yan Bao nodded with a smile and told him that this is a mechanical watch. If it doesn't move, just twist it a few times and it will move when you put it on your hand.

If it is placed in a box, time stops and the time can only be adjusted facing the noon sun.

Ah Huai couldn't put it down and put it on her wrist. The size was just right and it fit very well.

Ah Huai said with a smile on his face: "Thank you Yan Bao, I like it very much!"

"As long as you like it, don't soak it in water!" This is not a waterproof watch.

Ah Huai nodded and promised to take good care of him.

Ah Huai was so happy to have the watch, wishing that all the mice passing by would know that he had the watch, when he heard someone appear behind Yan Bao, and he praised him: "The watch is pretty good!"
