Fu Zhenqing can no longer remember how many years it has been since his family spent the New Year together.

So he couldn't refuse Xie's proposal.

Although the hope is slim, if it really comes true, he may be very happy.

Since Fu Rudi traveled around, he never came back every Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. Sometimes Fu Zhenqing would be very grateful if he could send a letter home.In Fu Zhenqing's heart, being able to sit and have a reunion dinner with Fu Rudi on New Year's Eve brought him spiritual comfort and satisfaction.

He liked his eldest son so much.

However, the eldest son was smitten by the concubine, and now his heart is entirely focused on Fu Jiao.Fu Zhenqing loves Wujiwu, and now he doesn't hate Fu Jiao as much as before.

"How are you going to persuade me tomorrow?"

Fu Zhenqing frowned.

He thought that Fu Jiao could be merciless to him in court, facing King Guangping, and he felt even more unsure.

Xie laughed dryly and said: "It's nothing more than touching her with affection and understanding. If the fourth girl still doesn't want to come back, then I will apologize to her and admit my mistake. After all, children who grow up at home will not be so heartless. "

How can a mistress of the house apologize to a concubine?It is simply contrary to Tiangang.

Fu Zhenqing thought so, but did not stop Xie.At the moment, facing that stubborn and sharp-tongued fourth girl, it seems that the only option is to treat her to a meal and a toast.

He finished the Laba porridge and handed the empty bowl to Mrs. Xie, "I feel wronged by you."

"Not wronged."

Ms. Xie smiled softly, "I am willing to do anything to help you solve my problems."

Her words moved Fu Zhenqing very much, and he felt that the lady who was once considerate and considerate of people in the hall and in the kitchen was back.

The weather is getting colder and colder.

In the past few days, Xie also felt that she was much less aggressive than before.I don’t know if it’s because the plan succeeded, or because of... other reasons.

Through the mahogany window, Ms. Xie looked out of the yard.The unsightly green potted plants outside the wall were all covered with thick snow, and their original appearance was no longer visible.

This proposal won Fu Zhenqing's favor.

But Fu Yan was still uneasy.

Returning to Xie's own yard, Fu Yan could no longer hold back her inner thoughts and asked, "Mother, do you think things will really go according to your ideas? I'm always afraid that something will go wrong halfway."

"To shut up."

Ms. Xie interrupted her sternly, "Good things don't work, bad things work, don't say these words."

"But mother, if you let eldest brother and Fu Jiao come back, wouldn't it be easier for them to investigate the case?"

After all, Fu Yan was actually afraid of being found out as the real culprit in the kidnapping case.

Although the blame was put on Aunt Chen, the bad reputation always spread from the Fu family.She was afraid that the impact would be too great and that it would be difficult to talk about her marriage.

Knowing her daughter's concerns, Ms. Xie just smiled calmly.

She said: "My aunt is nothing. No matter how long I stay at home, I won't be able to get on the stage. Do you think your father will keep an aunt in the face of his official career and reputation?"

"Father is measured."

"That's it." Ms. Xie reassured her, "The most dangerous place is also the safest. I took the initiative to let them come back to live. Even if your elder brother knew that it was someone in the family who wanted to harm the fourth girl, he would not think of me." After saying that, she thought for a while, then stared into Fu Yan's eyes and warned firmly: "If that girl Fu Jiao comes back, you must not conflict with her."

Fu Yan was so angry when she thought of Fu Jiao's triumphant appearance.The person I've always hated since I was little is now having to give in to someone everywhere. It's really frustrating to the extreme.

"But I want to teach her a lesson..."

"stupid!"

Xie scolded sharply.

She raised her hand and stroked the newly healed scar on her forehead, "Now Princess Zhaofu wants to protect her, and your eldest brother is on her side. You have no chance of winning in an argument with her. What if she gets angry? What kind of trick has been brought out again. Now that you and I, mother and daughter, are standing at the forefront of the storm, we should be more tolerant in everything, you know?"

Mr. Xie rarely said such words with seriousness and sincerity.

Fu Yan also understood the urgency of the situation. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay mother, when Fu Jiao comes back, I...I promise not to offend her."

"Not only can't mess with her."

Xie narrowed her eyes, "It's best to shake hands with her and make peace with her, flatter her in every way, and treat her like a biological sister. Do you understand?"

Fu Yan nodded feebly like a deflated rubber ball: "Understood."

*
Since the relationship with Xue Zhongliu had eased last time, Xue Zhongliu would come to the backyard to see Fu Jiao from time to time.

Sometimes Xue Zhongliu felt relaxed just looking at the girl who was as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll without saying anything.

Fu Jiao also didn't expect that the unlucky star who was once hated by everyone would now have friends all over the capital.The prince Zhao Hao is her best friend, the famous catcher Xue Zhongliu likes to be with her, and even the notoriously unruly princess is her close friend.

On this day, the winter snow cleared and the sky was bright.

In such a dazzling warm weather, people will definitely come to play with her.

Fu Jiao was bored and found a yarrow fortune-teller. After several fortune tellings, she always got lucky numbers, which surprised her.

"What? Didn't anyone look for me today?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a series of hurried footsteps outside.She pricked up her ears to identify him and immediately called out the person's name, "Si Bei, what do you want to see me for?"

Si Bei pointed outside, dancing and looking very confused, "Fourth Miss, you...your mother is looking for you."

"My mother? Isn't she dead?"

"Oh, it's Mrs. Fu!" Si Bei was afraid that he couldn't explain it in a few words. "your mother."

Fu Jiao suddenly realized.

She curled her lips, threw away the yarrow, and said angrily: "It turns out he is such a loser, no wonder he was all signing lots."

Si Bei also knew that there was a disagreement between mother and daughter, and that the mastermind behind Fu Jiao's kidnapping was closely related to the Fu family.Si Bei naturally stood on Fu Jiao's side and defended her in every way, "Fourth Miss, your Excellency and Capt. I went out to see her. I don’t think Mrs. Fu is kind-hearted. "

Fu Jiao chuckled, "Okay, she is my 'mother' after all, not a weasel. Just ask her to wait in the middle hall, and I'll be there right away."

She said so, and Si Bei shouldn't interfere in other people's family affairs.

He sighed and said: "Then... Miss Fourth, please pay attention to yourself. If anything happens, just call me loudly. I will be outside."

"Thank you."

Fu Jiao was very happy to be loved and cared for by everyone. Even when she went to see Ms. Xie, her face was filled with a happy and bright smile.

Ms. Xie was sitting upright in the middle hall.

This time, she didn't bring Fu Yan with her. She was afraid that Fu Yan would hate Fu Jiao so much that she wouldn't be able to suppress her anger and ruin her affairs.

Hearing the footsteps, Ms. Xie quickly put down her tea cup and stood up.

Looking back, I saw the person coming with a smile and a crescent-shaped eyebrow, just like a fairy wandering in the world.She was wearing a raccoon fur cloak, with red quilted red plum gauze skirts underneath, and a red hairpin inlaid with rubies in her buns. She walked over gracefully.

"I met my mother."

Fu Jiao's smile continued.Mrs. Xie nodded lovingly and kindly, "Long time no see, Jiao'er is becoming more and more energetic."

"The same goes for my mother. The charm of MILFs is still there."

Xie: "..."

Sure enough, this girl couldn't say anything good.

Fu Jiao stood still with a smile and looked around. Only Mrs. Xie was leading the maid, but Fu Yan, Fu Changjian and others were missing.She asked curiously: "Why did mother come to the Yamen today? Could it be that the family was uneasy and she came to the Yamen to redress her grievances?"

Xie's heart skipped a beat.

She secretly wondered, Fu Jiao was not at home for a long time, how did she know that the Fu family was at odds with her husband during this period?

Mrs. Xie would not admit this, so she forced a smile and said, "Jiao'er is worrying too much, everything is fine at home. This time I came to the government office not to avenge my grievances, but because the Chinese New Year is about to come, so that you and Rudi can be reconciled." Let's all go home and live together, and have a lively New Year's Eve dinner together on New Year's Eve." After saying this, Mrs. Xie raised her eyelids and secretly observed Fu Jiao's expression.

Fu Jiao didn't answer immediately.

Mrs. Xie was afraid that she would not agree, so she said with a smile: "Jiao'er, mother was a little sorry for you in the past, which made you feel wronged. This time after being separated for so long, mother has figured it out. She owed you a lot in the past. After you come back Mother must make up for it. After all, nothing in this world can compare to the family being reunited together."

Fu Jiao didn't understand what Xie wanted to do for a while.

Could it be that she was tricked into killing her?

Fu Jiao originally suspected that there was someone else who hired the murderer, but now Xie's weird attitude made her feel that it was Xie who was plotting against her.

In order to prove this point, Fu Jiao plans to go deep into the tiger's den.

She agreed and smiled, "I know my mother's good intentions. In that case, I will move back here. As for my brother... he is busy with government affairs and his yard is small, so I'm afraid he won't want to come back."

"It's best if you can persuade your eldest brother to come back. If that doesn't work, I'll work with your father to persuade him."

Xie was so excited that she didn't expect it to be done so easily.

As long as Fu Jiao is willing to come back, there will be no problem with Fu Rudi.She said diligently: "The place where you live at home will not be small. I asked your biological mother's yard to be cleaned out, and an inkstone was moved out, and an extra room was built. It will be more than enough for you or your eldest brother to live in." .”

Fu Jiao sneered.

In the past, when the original owner lived in the Fu family, it was common for her not to have enough food and clothing, but as the fourth young lady, she did not have a separate yard of her own. Instead, she lived in an empty room that was squeezed between Aunt Chen and Aunt Lu.The house is cramped and the decoration is old. Even if you want to use the toilet, you have to go to another yard.Because her biological mother, Aunt Rong, died early and was involved in ominous rumors, the yard had been covered in dust for more than ten years.In order to let her go back this time, Mrs. Xie specially repaired Aunt Rong's yard, which was simply unbelievable.

"Then it's troublesome for mother."

Xie smiled and said, "That's right. Mother owed you too much in the past, Jiao'er, please don't take it to heart."

"How can mother and daughter have an overnight feud? Mother is too worried."

Mrs. Xie gave me enough face, and Fu Jiao was also considerate.

She wanted to see what good things would happen when she returned to the Fu family.

*
Because the yard has not been completely organized yet, Fu Jiao still lives in the government office these days.

Fu Rudi was busy handling official duties, investigating and settling cases every day, and was so busy that she didn't tell Fu Rudi about it.

Instead, Zhao Hao came to find her, and Fu Jiao informed her that she was going back to the Fu family.

Zhao Hao was stunned.

He said: "That's the dragon's den and the tiger's den. How dare you go back alone? Didn't you say that the human heart is more terrifying than ghosts?"

"I just want to see what medicine Xie's Gourd sells."

"Then there's no need to put yourself at risk."

Zhao Hao knew that she was powerful, but she was just a master of catching ghosts.If Mrs. Xie has evil intentions, she will not only be beaten.

Fu Jiao looked behind him.

Yanji was in the capital and stayed with Zhao Hao every day.Either lying on his back or wrapping her arms around him.Zhao Hao is also used to it. The light female ghost has no weight. He carries the amulet given by Fu Jiao and is not afraid of being sucked away. One person and one ghost wander around the capital like this, inseparable.

"Then let Yanji go back with me."

Fu Jiao asked Zhao Hao for his opinion.

Zhao Hao now has no fear of Yan Ji. As long as she doesn't drag him to die for her love, everything will be fine.He frowned, feeling a little embarrassed: "When? Not today. I promised to take Yanji to Cuiwei Lake for a cruise."

"What kind of boat trip is there in the winter? You're not afraid of the cold."

"I just need to wear thicker clothes." Zhao Hao scratched his hair and looked at the black-haired female ghost next to him, "It's mainly Yan Ji. She said that she had only been on a boat once in so many years, and it was with Mr. Song."

Zhao Hao doesn't know what's going on recently.

The more details about Song Lang he learned from Yan Ji, the more he hated his previous life.He would do what Song Lang had done with Yan Ji, and he would do it better than Song Lang, so that Yan Ji would have a deeper impression of him than Song Lang did.

It was obviously just the thought of a female ghost, but Zhao Hao inexplicably became concerned about it.

Yanji didn't speak either.

She looked at Zhao Hao with a faint look.

In the past, this look could scare the shit out of Zhao Hao, but now he is used to it, and finds her lifeless look very distinctive.

Zhao Hao couldn't stand the look in Yan Ji's eyes and was afraid that Fu Jiao would ruin the cruise plan.

He said to Fu Jiao: "We can't do it today anyway. If you have anything to do, we can discuss it after I take Yan Ji on the boat."

Fu Jiao resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

If your temperament doesn't change drastically in a day, your "aunt" won't be important anymore.

Fu Jiao stopped teasing her and said truthfully: "Who said it was today? You are in a hurry. It's still early to clean up the Fu family yard. I just told you in advance."

"Oh, that's good."

Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

Fu Jiao laughed out loud when she saw him like this.

After laughing, she felt a little melancholy.

I don’t know if Zhao Hao and Yan Ji have a deep relationship, whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing.What if Zhao Hao really fell into trouble and couldn't tell whether he was Song Lang or Prince Guangping? Would he really be encouraged by Yan Ji to commit suicide for his love?
Thinking of this, Fu Jiao decided to ask Yan Ji another day what she thought, lest Zhao Hao die if she was not careful.

The capital is ushering in a cold winter, and it's getting colder day by day.

For several days, the sky was a deep leaden gray.

Fu Rudi followed King Guangping to the outskirts of Beijing to survey the river.Fu Jiao had not seen him for a few days, so she informed Si Nan about returning home. When Fu Rudi came back, Si Nan would tell him.

The cold wind blew as sharply as a knife.

Fu Jiao packed her things and stood at the door of the government office.

The sound of wheels came from the long street.

Fu Jiao took a look and was sure it was the carriage that was coming to pick her up. She rubbed her frozen hands, feeling a little excited and expectant in her heart.
