Hearing this, A Sheng didn't seem to react at all, let alone the retention that Cao Cao expected.

He thought she would give in to him, and even hoped that she would take the initiative to seek peace.Unexpectedly, she just replied "Oh" lightly, and then replied nonchalantly without even looking at him: "Then you should never come here again."

Use the most ordinary tone, say the most indifferent words.

And yet so jarring.

The sound of footsteps in the ear gradually faded away. After a long time, Ah Sheng raised his eyes and looked around, but he could no longer see anyone.

The huge room was empty, and there were occasional Pi'er babbling and screaming, and my heart was inexplicably as if a huge stone had been stuffed in the air, making me feel stuffy all over.

Obviously, it should be refreshing to get rid of him, but why is there a mess in his head, which is hard to untangle and uncomfortable.

"Ma'am, the water is here." She was rubbing her temples here, and Luyi walked into the room and brought her a bowl of water.

A Sheng took it carefully, and when he was about to feed it to Pi'er, his hand suddenly shook.

A small half of the bowl of water instantly splashed out along the wall of the bowl, splashing a large part of her sleeves.

Lu Yi hurriedly wanted to come over to wipe it, but A Sheng shy away shyly. She twisted her sleeve a few times, looked at Lu Yi apologetically and said, "Look, I'm absent-minded, I can't even serve a bowl of water well."

Lu Yi quietly looked at A Sheng, and clearly noticed that there was something strange about her expression.

The eye circles were slightly red, and the whole hand was obviously trembling non-stop. Although the amplitude was very small, the keen Lu Yi could still see clearly.

"Ma'am, what are you doing..." She tried to ask, but was inadvertently interrupted by A Sheng, "It's just a little uncomfortable, it's okay."

Seeing her calm expression, Lu Yi didn't dare to speak anymore.But at this moment, the surrounding air was really eerily quiet, even the sound of the windows being blown by the wind penetrated into the ears.

"Help me get the fan in the dowry box over there. I've only embroidered halfway and it's not finished yet." Take out the fan.

A Sheng took it, bowed his head and began to embroider intently.On it is a smudged pattern of peach blossoms and clouds, slightly textured with water pink. She carefully threaded the needle and threaded it, and stabbed it one by one according to the distribution of the boundaries.

For some reason, obviously trying to restrain herself, she couldn't stop thinking about the scene just now, Cao Cao's indifferent face, the dissatisfaction and indifference in his words, and the unhesitating footsteps when he left.

Suddenly, the sharp needle accidentally skewed at an angle, puncturing her right index finger unexpectedly.

The bright red blood oozed out from the fingertips in an instant, staining the crimson peach blossom forest with little red spots.

She stared blankly at the wound on her finger, and smelled a slight smell of blood, but she let the blood drip silently, forgetting to stop it for a moment.

Luyi, who was cleaning the floor tiles, realized something was wrong, and seeing Ah Sheng staring at the bleeding wound in a daze, hurriedly reminded her in a low voice: "Ma'am?"

The constant flipping sound finally woke her up and dragged her back to reality.Only then did Ah Sheng belatedly feel the pain coming from the fingertips, and the tingling sensation spread around the fingers like water waves.

Seeing that Luyi was still looking for medicine for the wound with concern, she quickly stopped: "This small injury is not a problem, it will heal itself after a while, so there is no need to bother."

Lu Yi murmured and wanted to say something, when suddenly a curly-haired boy ran in outside, with a hurried expression on his face, and just crossed the threshold, he sat down on the ground and began to cry.

A Sheng didn't recognize him at first, but Lu Yi respectfully called him first: "Eldest Young Master."

It turned out to be Cao Ang.I haven't seen him for a long time, I don't want to grow so tall.

A Sheng knelt down and patted his forehead, wiped his tears with a handkerchief, and asked with a smile, "Why are you crying?"

If you don't ask, it's better to ask.

Cao Ang seemed to have opened the floodgates of tears, sobbing even more violently, and his voice continued intermittently: "My mother punished me for copying the ritual scriptures fifty times again, saying that it was illegal for me to go out to play in the market secretly, but those servants and the doctor Yu Shi The children in my family can go out to play wildly, and go out to hunt with eagles and dogs from time to time, why can't I?"

He talked more and more vigorously, and finally wiped A Sheng's body with tears and snot, almost throwing himself into her arms.

A Sheng couldn't help shaking his head and sighed, raised his head and said to Lu Yi: "Go to the dining room and get a bowl of mung bean tea cake for the eldest son."

As she spoke, she patted Cao Ang on the back and said, "Because you are your father's son."

What he said made him even more confused, he blinked his eyelashes and looked at her puzzled, and sniffed: "Auntie, what do you mean?"

"Although your father speaks a lot in the court now, he is walking on thin ice. Even if he did a very small wrong thing, those ministers will discuss it behind his back and add charges. As the saying goes, there is no excuse for crimes. Even if he doesn't dare to take a wrong step, you are the eldest son he values ​​most, so you should restrain yourself so as not to leave any excuses for others."

She tried her best to make Cao Ang understandable, but he was still young after all, and his twinkling eyes still stared at her half understandingly.

A Sheng stared at him solemnly, withdrew his original smile, made sure that he could hear every word clearly, and said, "My lord, you just have to remember that those ministers only wanted to protect the Han Dynasty, and your father wanted to protect the Han family." Yes, the whole world."

Although Cao Ang was ignorant, he still nodded heavily.Not far away, Pi'er, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly let out a hmm unconsciously, stretched himself, and then fell into a coma again.

As soon as Cao Ang glanced at his younger brother, he immediately got up from the ground in surprise and hurried to Pi'er to look at him.

"My brother is so cute." He gently pinched Pi'er's face and praised fondly.

Cao Pi, who was disturbed for no reason, felt disturbed in his sleep, impatiently waved his hand and pushed it away, and continued to sleep with his mouth smashed.

At this moment, Lu Yi brought over the steaming mung bean tea cake and put it beside him, saying: "Use it slowly, Mr. Zhang. This is the snack that Chef Zhang just came out of the cage. It's delicious and it's still hot."

After all, Cao Ang is a child at heart. Seeing the temptation of delicious food, he hurriedly wiped away his tears and stuffed a piece of it into his mouth, regardless of whether it was hot or not.

"Delicious," he commented, wiping his mouth, but couldn't help complaining, "My mother never gives me these snacks on weekdays, she only asks me to copy some poems and books as punishment. If we fall apart, Aunt Bian will treat me better."

Complaining bitterly, Xiao Cao Ang saw the bright and beautiful begonias placed on the case table, his attention was drawn to it again, and he started to play with it carefully.

"Aunt Bian, the flowers in your house are blooming really beautifully, and they smell so good." He admired them while admiring them.It was gradually getting dark outside, and the night quietly came with the moonlight, refracting some bright light and throwing it into the window paper.

Seeing his clever appearance, A Sheng was really funny, and motioned to Lu Yi to bring him another pot of snacks, and said, "Do you like it? If you like it, I will break a few branches and give it to you. You should grow it well and don't waste it."

"Heh, I don't want to see such a fox-like flower in my room. If I see one, I will tear one up." A shrill female voice suddenly sounded outside the door. Ah Sheng frowned and looked up, but it was Ding Xi. Stepped in untimely, the golden steps on the temples jingled with the sound of footsteps, although it was extravagant, the words on his mouth made Ah Sheng furious.

She immediately stood up, twitched the corners of her mouth and said sarcastically: "I don't have fox-flavored flowers here. Madam Ding doesn't have to be like this. She can't take advantage of other people's houses and she comes here to ask for face. It just makes me feel funny." .”

"Hey," Ding Xi's face turned red and then pale after hearing this, but he still pretended to be calm, and he raised his hands and sleeves and knocked the pastry that Xiao Cao Ang was eating to the ground.Immediately, the half-eaten mung bean cake fell to the ground alone, and a piece of crumbs splashed on the bluestone board.

Poor Cao Ang was gnawing on himself with relish, but was suddenly interrupted, staring at his mother at a loss for a while: "Mother——"

"Ang'er, hurry up!" Ding Xi yelled at his son with brows upside down, his eyes glaring at him fiercely, "How can a vixen be eaten?"

Cao Ang was so frightened that he bowed his head and feet, drooping his shoulders and losing his strength, he glanced helplessly at A Sheng but was stared back by Ding Xi, and couldn't help begging for mercy: "Mother, I still want to eat..."

Before he finished speaking, a red palm print appeared on his right cheek, accompanied by a crisp sound.

So he didn't dare to look up at Ding Xi's expression at all, he followed his mother out of the house aggrieved, and when he approached the threshold, he quietly turned his head and glanced at A Sheng, his eyes full of guilt.

Seeing that the mother and son had left, Lu Yi stepped forward to wipe Ah Sheng's clothes with a cloth.

It was full of tears and snot wiped by Xiao Cao Ang, but it was a pity for this good quality clothes.

"Ma'am, take off this outer garment, and this servant will wash it for you."

Seeing Luyi going out with her clothes, she also sat down and continued to embroider the unfinished peach blossom fan.

The outline is a bit difficult to draw, so Ah Sheng had to lean on the stool and use the little wolf pen to outline it in detail, bowing his head and concentrating on it.

"It's almost winter, so what's the use of a fan." Just as he was concentrating, a gust of wind suddenly blew up around him.

Cao Cao's voice was very familiar, but it was still slightly cold.

His hand froze slightly, but Ah Sheng still didn't answer him.

The smell of alcohol filled his nostrils, but his face looked like he was slightly drunk.

For some reason, seeing him appearing in front of her, Ah Sheng suddenly felt happy.Mingming felt awkward all the time, but the moment he saw him again, he went back to the original point.

"Didn't you say you would never come here again?" A Sheng was confused, trying to look up at him with a sarcastic tone.

He chuckled lightly, "When did Gu say that?"

It sounded drunk, even though she didn't want it to.

"A gentleman's words are hard to follow, but the majestic man Sikong is not a gentleman?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Ah Sheng regretted it.

For the first time in her life she hated her ridiculous pride.
