The world is broken, the cubs mend it

"it is good!"

Yuanyuan held her hand and walked forward with her.

The child was not on guard and followed her because she spoke so gently.

Xiao Fuzi also hurriedly followed and winked at Caizhi who was holding the lotus, asking her to go back and inform the Lord of the Seal.

Concubine Jing was a rare concubine with a good temper in the palace. She was a vegetarian and chanted Buddhist scriptures all year round and rarely went out.

But since it was about his adopted daughter who held the seal, he did not dare to take it lightly. If he made any mistake, he might lose his head.

"Your hands are so cold!"

Yuanyuan pinched her fingers, but they were still cold after holding them for so long.

"Did it freeze you?"

Concubine Jing had a cold body since childhood, and she wore thicker clothes than others in summer.

"No, I'll warm you up and you won't be cold in a while."

Yuanyuan held her hands with both of her little hands, trying to keep them warm.

"..."

Concubine Jing watched her actions and tears suddenly fell out.

I once had a daughter, but she died when she was less than six months old.

If her daughter were alive, she would be about the same age as her.

"Why are you crying?"

Yuanyuan didn't like seeing others cry, so she raised her hand to wipe her tears, but unfortunately she couldn't reach it.

"It's okay, I just remembered something sad. Do you want to come to my palace and have a seat? There are delicious cakes."

Concubine Jing squatted down and picked her up, holding the tiny, soft girl in her arms.

"My lady, you are not feeling well, let me hold the baby for you."

The old nanny reached out to take the child from her arms, but Concubine Jing raised her hand to block her.

"It doesn't matter!"

The palace where Concubine Jing lived was not far from here. It was fresh and elegant inside with many flowers and plants.

The palace maid brought freshly made cakes and sour plum drinks to relieve the heat and placed them on the stone table in the courtyard.

Yuanyuan really likes the exquisite and delicious snacks. She ate two pieces of osmanthus cake and mare's milk cake in one breath.

"Be careful not to choke."

Concubine Jing wiped the crumbs from her mouth with a handkerchief and thought she looked so cute while eating the cakes.

After eating the pastries, Yuanyuan drank a small cup of sour plum drink.

Soon a report came from outside that the governor of the East Factory wanted to see him.

It was Pei Zhiyan who asked him to pick up the child.

There were still quite a few snacks on the table. Yuanyuan pointed at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table and said, "Can I take some of this away?"

This one tastes the best, and she wants to take some back.

Concubine Jing asked the palace maid to bring her a small food box and put all the food in it.

"What is Bad Dad doing?"

Yuanyuan sat on Wu Xian's arm and waved to Concubine Jing.

"The seal is waiting for you to return. Don't come to Concubine Jing's palace anymore."

"why?"

"You will understand later."

Concubine Jing's father was a censor in the Censorate, and he was the most harsh in scolding the seal holder.

Concubine Jing knew that she was from Wangyue Tower, but she still tried to get close to her. Who knows what she was thinking.

Wu Xian looked at her innocent appearance and couldn't help but sigh.

I don’t know what the Palm Seal was thinking, to actually keep her by his side.

This child is really lucky.

It was a dark summer night, and when the group returned, Pei Zhiyan was having dinner, with a small dish and a bowl of porridge.

Wu Xian sent her back and went about his business. Yuanyuan carried the snack box with difficulty and placed it on the stool beside him.

"What did you do at Concubine Jing's place?"

Pei Zhiyan put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at her with his eyes lowered.

"Go eat something delicious."

Yuanyuan fiddled with the food box with her little hands, trying to figure out how to open it.

"Just tell them to make you whatever you want to eat. There's no need to go to someone else's place to eat."

Pei Zhiyan poked her head, only to see her lowering her head to look at the food box. He didn't know whether she heard what he said or not.

"Do you want to eat? Osmanthus cake!"

Yuanyuan couldn't open the box, so she pointed at it and asked him if he wanted to eat it.

"Brought it specially for me?"

Pei Zhiyan's eyes froze for a moment. In the past, when his mother came to the palace, she would bring some cakes from the palace for him, his elder sister, and his younger sister to eat.

She still has some conscience, so it's worth it that I saved her life.

"Um…"

Yuanyuan nodded, thinking that Bad Dad would definitely be able to open this box.

"Don't bring these useless things back next time."

Pei Zhiyan said this while he had already unscrewed the lid of the food box.

"you eat…"

Yuanyuan took a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to his mouth.

"..."

Pei Zhiyan stared at her hand for a moment, then lowered his head to eat the cake.

Unexpectedly, the child's hand retracted, and he turned around and stuffed the osmanthus cake into his mouth.

As the osmanthus cake was about to enter her mouth, a shadow passed by Yuanyuan's eyes.

By the time he reacted, the osmanthus cake had already entered Pei Zhiyan's mouth.

Compared with those who practice martial arts, her hand speed is still a little slow.

"Still want to play tricks on me? Get out of here with your osmanthus cake."

"..."

Yuanyuan stood there silently, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and put it into her mouth.

"I told you to get out, don't play dumb."

Pei Zhiyan found that she was always challenging his patience and making him upset for no reason.

Ever since his family was broken up, nothing could cause him to have major emotional fluctuations.

"it's dark!"

"So what?"

"I'm going to sleep here."

Yuanyuan knew that the sleeping place was on the third floor, and she didn't want to sleep on the couch on the first floor anymore.

"Go to the side hall and sleep. I'll have someone make your bed."

"Humph! Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Pei Zhiyan almost overturned the table when he saw her back as she walked out with the box in her arms.

It's just a tiny thing, how can it be so irritating?

At night, Caizhi cleaned her body and made a bed on the floor in the room to keep watch for her.

The side hall had never been lived in before, and even after it was cleaned, there was still a smell of dust, and the ventilation was not very good, so it was stuffy and hot.

"what happened?"

Seeing her suddenly sit up, Caizhi immediately stood up and came over.

“I’m hot…”

Yuanyuan tugged at her pajamas and felt that her breathing was not smooth.

"I will fan you, go to sleep..."

Caizhi took a fan and sat beside the bed, fanning her and slowly coaxing her to sleep.

But just after the fan stopped for a while, Yuanyuan woke up from the heat again and climbed out of bed.

"I want to go out..."

She wanted to sleep in Bad Dad's room. It was cool there and she didn't need Caizhi to stay up all night to fan her.

"It's late, I'll go out tomorrow."

Caizhi advised, but unfortunately the child did not listen to her and opened the door and ran to the main hall.

Pei Zhiyan hadn't slept yet, and was sitting by the bed reading ancient books.

There was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, and the child rushed into his room holding a soft pillow.

"go out!"

Yuanyuan was driven away as soon as she came in. She hugged the pillow tightly with her little hands and took two steps forward.

"I want to sleep here, it's too hot."

"If it's hot, let Caizhi fan you."

"It will be tiring for Sister Caizhi to keep fanning me."

"You are kind-hearted."

Pei Zhiyan listened to her soft voice and his tone unconsciously softened a lot.

Considering her age, it is quite good that she can understand the difficulties of others.

But the person she felt sorry for was obviously not herself, otherwise she wouldn't have brought a pillow to me in the middle of the night.

"..."

Seeing that he was not as fierce to her as he was during the day, Yuanyuan plucked up her courage and ran to the bed quickly holding her pillow.

As a result, he ran too fast and didn't look at the road, tripped himself, and fell on his back.

Pei Zhiyan saw her lying on the ground in a daze, put down the ancient book in his hand, walked towards her, and picked her up from the ground.

"Why aren't you talking? Did you become an idiot after falling?"

"..."

Yuanyuan looked at the ceiling with tears in her eyes and burst into tears.

The grievances suffered for two consecutive days erupted at this moment.

After all, she was still a child, and being threatened and bullied by him was beyond her ability to bear.
