After I was reborn, I became the white moonlight of the destitute son

Chapter 12
Xuancheng, the gate of the city.

Farm households leaving the city with empty baskets, rich families entering the city in carriages, literati carrying bags, business travelers driving mules and horses into the city, ordinary people rushing to make a living, pedestrians of all walks of life, people come and go, and the stream is endless.

With a groan, the Zhou family's carriage stopped in an open space on the street not far from the city gate.Immediately afterwards, Lonicera got down from the carriage.As soon as he glanced at the crowd queuing to enter the city, he let out a cry of surprise.

"Girl, the maid seems to have seen He Shizi." Lian Dong approached the window and whispered.

"Who are you talking about?" Zhou Xining opened the curtain on one side, lay down on the window with a face full of astonishment, and saw He Beiting in the crowd with just one glance.Although he was among the chaotic crowd, Zhou Xining still saw him at a glance.Maybe it's because his stern face is too outstanding, maybe other people don't have facial features in Zhou Xining's eyes, or maybe it's because you are everywhere.

"Linfeng, you go back home first." He Beiting gave instructions to those who followed him, then turned and walked towards the Zhou family's carriage parked by the roadside.

Liandong bowed her knees and saluted, then walked a few steps in front of the carriage, watching the flow of people entering the city while paying attention to the movement behind her.

"Pick me up?" He Beiting stood still beside the carriage, looked at Zhou Xining who was lying on the side of the window, the corners of his lips were pressed down hard to show that he was in a good mood.She knew that he was going to leave Beijing for four or five days, did she count the time to pick him up?
Zhou Xining's eyelids twitched. Even if she knew that he was coming back today, she couldn't come to the city gate to pick him up with great fanfare.That's not picking people up, that's shooting at people.

"I've been away for so many days, do you have any gifts?" But now that we met, Zhou Xining was still very happy.

"I'm not ashamed." Although he spoke coldly, He Beiting's hand slipped into his sleeve pocket without a trace.But when out of the corner of his eyes he caught sight of the person who was quickly walking up to Liandong, he gave Zhou Xining a cold sideways look, turned his head and walked away.

Um?It is said that half of the people are gone, what's wrong with this?Zhou Xining was stunned for a moment, and was about to call He Beiting to stop, but when she poked her head and saw the person facing Lian Dong, Zhou Xining's heart ached.

Zhou Jiayanqing, son of the aristocratic family, her brother, the youngest number one scholar in the history of Xuan Kingdom.The person like the breeze and the moon has suffered half of his life and tasted all the bitterness of life.

After taking a deep breath, a smile appeared on Zhou Xining's face. This time, her brother will live as he pleases.

"Fufeng, did you send a letter to the mansion?" When Zhou Yanqing passed the city gate, he saw the Zhou family's carriage parked by the side of the road, and turned to ask Fufeng who was following him.

"No." Fufeng shook his head, followed Zhou Yanqing's gaze, and then looked at Liandong approaching with surprise and said: "My lord, that's Liandong next to Miss, it's Miss's carriage."

As soon as Fufeng finished speaking, Liandong came up to him, curtsied with a smile on his knees, "My lord, the girl is in the carriage over there."

As soon as Zhou Yanqing answered, he heard a sweet call, and when he looked up, he saw Zhou Xining stepped off the carriage with his skirt in his hands.

"elder brother……"

Zhou Xining quickly ran towards Zhou Yanqing, his smiling eyes were bent into crescent buds, and his expression of joy was beyond words.

"Walk well." Seeing her sister rushing over regardless, Zhou Yanqing was so frightened that her heart almost stopped, and she hurried forward to meet her, fearing that her sister would bump into her.When he held his younger sister firmly, although his face was serious, his eyes were full of smiles.

Against Zhou Yanqing's sternness, Zhou Xining hugged his brother's arm and said with a smile, "Long time no see, do you miss Ning'er?"

Zhou Yanqing was a little speechless, when he put on a straight face, even his elder brothers were afraid of him, but this younger sister was not afraid of him at all.Besides, he only left Beijing to go to the academy after the Lantern Festival, and it would take two months if he was full of money. How long has it been?I had never seen her so clingy when I was a child.Then he said angrily and funny: "Well, it's been a long time, two months."

Zhou Xining blinked his eyes and said, "Isn't it two months long? It's said that not seeing each other every day is like three autumns..."

"Stop." Zhou Yanqing flicked Zhou Xining's forehead with his fingers, "Are you always so invisible?"

As soon as he entered the city gate, he saw the younger sister he was thinking about. Zhou Yanqing was very happy, but he still said: "There are mixed people coming out of the city and entering the city. My brother didn't send a message because I didn't want you to come to the city gate. Why are you still here?"

Uh……

Zhou Shining said truthfully, "Yingchun and Banxia arrived in Beijing today."

Zhou Yanqing pretended to be angry and said, "Didn't you come to pick him up as brother?"

Zhou Yanqing understood, he also said that he didn't send a letter to the mansion in advance, why his sister came to the gate of the city according to the hour, it turned out that he happened to be in time for Yingchun and Banxia to return to Beijing.

"Brother, what's the rush when you come back at this time?" Zhou Xining looked at Zhou Yanqing who seemed to be angry, and hugged his arm again, shaking his face flatteringly, smiling so hard that his teeth couldn't see.

He didn't send the letter in advance because he didn't want to work hard for her to pick it up, so he wouldn't be really angry, but it was just to tease his sister.Seeing his younger sister's ignorance, Zhou Yanqing was still a little depressed, and said, "Didn't you see that there are many more students in Beijing? Students from other places know to come to Beijing in advance to adjust their status. Is it possible that your brother is still here?" Come back on the last day, so you have to come back a few days earlier to rest. You said what you have been busy with all day long, and such a big thing as brother Chunwei didn't enter your heart..."

Xuanguo's spring is in the middle and late March.

Zhou Xining thought to himself, thinking that Chu Yuming was holding back his big moves during this time, but he was busy winning people's hearts.Chu Yuming's mother and concubine died early and he had no natal family to rely on, but he was able to fight against the seven princes who were the queen's direct descendants in court. It has to be said that he is really good at winning people's hearts.Otherwise, she in her previous life wouldn't have worked so hard for him.

It's just that the human heart is like the window paper, if it is pierced, it will be broken.

At this time, the winter jasmine and pinellia arrived.

"Girl, girl..." As soon as Ban Xia saw Zhou Xining, she left the motorcade and ran over without hesitation. When she saw Zhou Yanqing, she hurriedly saluted and said, "Yeah, the young master is here too."

Snapped!Yingchun who came after that patted her on the arm and said: "How many times have I said that the capital city is no better than the old capital, and then you are so bluffing, the girl will indulge you, but I will not indulge you."

"It's all because of the servant girl's ineffective discipline. Don't blame me, my lord." Yingchun bowed to Zhou Yanqing solemnly and pleaded guilty.

Yingchun is the head of the maidservants in Chunwuyuan.

Zhou Yanqing said: "It's okay, with her, my sister's place will be more lively."

Ban Xia nodded like pecking rice and said: "Young master is right, the servant girl is the most able to relieve the girl's boredom."

Yingchun glared at Banxia, ​​and then saluted Zhou Xining with a smile: "Girl, the servant girl is back."

"Girl, the servant girl is back too." Ban Xia bared her teeth and smiled cheerfully, with a happy face.
