The little petite bag of the fourth master of Qingchuan

Chapter 285 Ten Years
Gu Yaoyao looked out of the window of the carriage whose curtains were blown by the wind—the night was deep, and the scenery on the roadside was rapidly receding.

Although the capital city was still brightly lit, it gradually became dark in the direction of Yuanmingyuan.

Another year has passed.

Although the sky is still dark, in fact, this is the first day of the 46th year of Kangxi.

Nearly ten years have passed since she just crossed over.

Ten years, a flick of a finger, suddenly a dream.

The fourth elder brother saw her in a daze, reached out to hold her hand, and said softly: "Are you sleepy?"

He patted Hongyun to let Hongyun get out of the way, and then he bent over to Gu Yaoyao's side, with three squares in between.

The fourth elder brother directly picked up his little daughter and fell asleep in his arms.

……

The carriage finally stopped, the guards and attendants got off their horses, surrounded the carriage, and waited respectfully around.

After getting out of the car, Er Gege rubbed his eyes, and suddenly couldn't help but let out a "wow".

Gu Yaoyao followed her daughter's line of sight and looked up - she saw the Yuanmingyuan in the night, lit up and radiant, a completely different scene from the daytime.

The lights illuminate the tree shadows to shake green, the lanterns turn red, and the water color of the small lake in the Old Summer Palace shines up, reflecting the shadows of palace lanterns and figures, which has a special charm.

It is only when you return at night that you can see such a scene.

Hong Yun followed her sister and stopped.

"Go back with your mother-in-law first, and for the next month - I can see you every day."

Seeing the children standing still, the fourth elder brother smiled and reached out to pat Hong Yun on the back—it’s not like today, the year is over.

But looking at the children like this, he felt a little emotional - his own Yuanmingyuan, but a night scene of lights, can make Hong Yun and Er Gege look like this, which shows that there are still too few opportunities for the children to go out to play.

A few Zhuangzi running back and forth in the suburbs of the capital is not counted.

After reading thousands of books, you still have to travel thousands of miles.

"Wanli Road" is another book.

A more important book in life.

……

Taking the children back to Huabu Xiaozhu, Gu Yaoyao sat down on the chair and didn't want to move.

If I remember correctly, she got up before dawn, and now it was night when she came back, so she has been busy for almost twelve hours.

Not to mention that the children were sleepy, she couldn't stand it anymore.

After sitting for a while to gather strength, Dailan and Erman had already had hot water prepared, and they brought some clothes of the little masters for them to change and wash.

Although the children are still very young, men and women are different after all, and they must be in their own rooms when they take a bath, and they are all separated.

After Gu Yaoyao finished watching, Hong Yun went to watch Ergege and Sangege.

When she entered the room, Er Gege had already washed and was being served by the maidservants to dry off the water droplets on her hair, and changed into a white underclothes—the pure white set off her eyebrows and eyes more beautifully.

"What about your sister?"

While Gu Yaoyao was asking, she went around the screen, and saw that the ground was covered with water, and San Gege was trapped in the barrel, unable to get up.

With her eyes closed, she actually fell asleep while taking a bath, despite the coaxing of the maidservants who served beside her, she just pretended not to hear.

"Side Fujin."

When the servants saw Gu Yaoyao coming in, as if they saw a savior, they hurried over to salute her, and then glanced at the little master, meaning that they would not serve her.

It's Sangege who is really... very uncooperative.

Gu Yaoyao went over and pulled three grids: "Baby, hurry up and wash up and go to bed!"

San Gege squinted his eyes, lying on the edge of the barrel again as if he had no bones.

Gu Yaoyao sighed and said: "Forget it. Grid is sleepy. Everyone go out, let Grid sleep well."

As she spoke, she blew out several nearby lamps.

The light in the room instantly went dark.

The servants looked at each other, seeing that Fujin's appearance didn't look like he was joking, so they hesitated, picked up copper basins, face towels and other objects, and walked outside.

Er Gege's eyes widened: "Ah? Mother?"

After all the servants in the room had gone out, Gu Yaoyao reached out to hold Er GeGe's hand, and led her out, saying solemnly, "Emiang will take you to bed first."

Seeing that there was almost only San GeGe left in the dark room, San GeGe finally couldn't bear it any longer, so he quickly got up and shouted through the screen, "Er Niang Er Niang! Sister! Sister!"

Gu Yaoyao stopped, went back and lit the lights again, looked at San Gege, and said softly: "Emiang is here to help you wash, let's hurry up together, okay?"

San Gege nodded fiercely.

Gu Yaoyao rolled up the sleeves of her clothes, sat on the small stool left by the maids just now, and stretched out her hand to test the water temperature in the bucket for Sangege.

Er GeGe also ran over while wiping her hair.

She sat on another small stool next to Gu Yaoyao, laughing while looking at her younger sister.

After washing for a few times, Sangege drooped her little face and was very aggrieved: "Why did Er Niang really leave me alone in the room!"

Gu Yaoyao wrapped her hair, and then said: "You were sleepy just now! You don't want to go to bed, but sleep in a barrel, this is your choice - everyone must be responsible for their own choices."

Gu Yaoyao glanced at Er Gege who was standing next to her, and continued: "Er Niang and sister are the people who love you in this world, but even the one who loves you the most has no obligation to be responsible for your choices."

Crystal drops of water rolled down San Gege's cheeks, and San Gege stood in the hot water of the wooden barrel, thinking for a while.

Er Gege opened a small bottle of shower gel next to her, and poured a few drops into the wooden barrel—the long fragrance wafted away immediately.

There is also a milky smell in this aroma, which is very sweet.

Gu Yaoyao washed San Gege, took her little hand out, put on her small clothes, and kissed her cheek: "Baby, Er Niang will take you to sleep tonight."

Sangege was still aggrieved at first, but after hearing this, she immediately became happy, shaking her head and tail: "Okay!"

Er Gege blinked at the side, and called out on purpose: "Er Niang! It was agreed that you would take me!"

She reached out and touched her younger sister's head: "Okay, I'll give my mother to my younger sister!"

……

Under the warm quilt, San Gege hugged Gu Yaoyao's arm tightly, and he didn't know if it was because of taking a bath that he became more refreshed.

She turned over in the bed, grabbed Gu Yaoyao's hand, squeezed it back and forth, and said in a childish voice, "Mother, are you asleep?"

Gu Yaoyao lay flat and said calmly: "Er Niang is asleep."

Sange let out an "oh", feeling a little regretful, and was about to go to sleep when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

She propped up her small body with her small hands, leaned over to stare at Erniang's face by the moonlight outside the window.

Gu Yaoyao suppressed a smile and quickly closed her eyes.
