In the morning two days later.
Zilan Pavilion.
This is the old site of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, which was burned to ashes by Yan Lingji. Later, Zhao Linchuan assigned this land to Zi Nu.
It took Zi Nu a whole year to rebuild the Zilan Pavilion on the original site. It is more than three times larger than the old one, with pavilions, pavilions and pavilions arranged in an orderly manner, and winding corridors like winding rivers.
From then on, this became her final destination in the Heaven Dou Empire.
In the flower hall of the back pavilion.
Zhao Linchuan was slightly bent over, sitting on the sofa in the living room, with a messy Ice Silkworm silk spread out on the low table in front of him.
At this moment, Zhao Linchuan is concentrating on taking care of the ball of Ice Silkworm silk for Nong Yu.
Nong Yu was leaning on the sofa next to him.
She was wearing a light yellow house skirt, her long hair was tied loosely behind her head, she was holding a slender silver needle in her hand, the tip of the needle was threaded with Ice Silkworm silk thread, and she was slowly embroidering a pattern on a small bellyband.
"Dad, aunt!"
A crisp sound came from outside the door, breaking the tranquility in the attic.
Little A-Yan held her wooden sword and angrily crossed the threshold and walked in.
The little girl is wearing a pomegranate red skirt today and has two little wands on her head. She is as cute as a doll out of a New Year picture.
Her little face turned red, her lips pursed into a straight line, and her two big black eyes were wide open, as if they were about to burst out of fire.
She glanced into the living room, her eyes swept from the Ice Silkworm silk in Zhao Linchuan's hand to the bellyband in Nong Yu's hand, and then landed on the empty corners around the living room.
Not finding the person she was looking for, the little girl frowned even more.
"Have you seen sister Yue'er?" A-Yan's voice was filled with suppressed anger, her little tiger teeth were biting her lower lip, and her cheeks were bulging like two little buns.
Zhao Linchuan raised his head and glanced at her. He kept moving his hands, shook his head and said, "No, I haven't seen her for almost half a day."
"Hmph!"
A-Yan snorted heavily, turned around and walked out without asking any more questions. When he was about to cross the threshold, he dropped an angry sentence:
"Don't let me catch her, or I'll have to skin her!"
By the time he finished speaking, the person had disappeared into the shadows outside the door.
The living room was quiet for a moment.
After a while, the cloth hanging down on the low table in front of Zhao Linchuan shook slightly.
Immediately afterwards, a clear child's voice cautiously came out from under the tablecloth.
"Dad, is eldest sister gone?"
Zhao Linchuan didn't answer immediately. He leaned forward slowly, then reached out to lift a corner of the tablecloth, lowered his head and looked inside.
Under the table, Yue'er was huddled in a ball, holding his knees with his two little hands, huddled in the corner like a frightened kitten.
"Let's go." He said while suppressing a smile, and lifted the tablecloth completely. "Come out quickly, and don't make your mother angry in the future."
"Hehe--"
Yue'er crawled out from under the table on hands and knees, then jumped forward and hugged Zhao Linchuan's thigh.
"Daddy."
Yue'er's two little arms hugged him as hard as possible, and his head rubbed against his knees again and again, and he said a coquettish voice that was so sweet that it could melt a piece of candy:
"Yue'er will never dare to do it again--!"
She raised her face, blinked her big watery eyes, rested her chin on Zhao Linchuan's knees, and looked extremely pitiful:
"Dad, can you take me back first?"
"I'm afraid that the eldest sister will find me later and tear me apart..."
"Yue'er." Nong Yu, who had been silent until now, slowly put down the needle and thread in his hand.
She turned her face sideways, looked at the little girl holding Zhao Linchuan's thighs with a half-smile, and said softly:
"With your eldest sister's temperament, unless your mother comes to intercede in person."
"Otherwise, you won't be able to escape this beating no matter what."
Yue'er After hearing this sentence, the smile on his little face fell at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She looked up at Zhao Linchuan pitifully, her red eyes began to glow with water, and her voice became sour and soft, with a little nasal sound, as if she was about to cry:
"Dad, can you please help me beg for mercy..."
"Yue'er I will never make my mother angry again, Yue'er swears..."
As she spoke, she raised three short, fat fingers and made an extremely solemn expression.
Zhao Linchuan looked at Yue'er's pitiful appearance and couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.
He reached out and rubbed her head, and was about to open his mouth to say something--
"Yue'er!!"
A-Yan's voice was like a thunder, suddenly exploding in from outside the door!
"Not good!" Yue'er trembled when he heard this.
She quickly let go of Zhao Linchuan's thighs, spread her legs and ran towards the back door.
"Where to run!" A-Yan held the wooden sword in his hand, and like a small pomegranate-colored arrow off the string, he chased Yue'er straight in the direction of escape.
Nong Yu turned sideways and watched the two children disappear into the depths of the garden, smiling and shaking his head.
She picked up the needlework in her hand again, and sighed as she threaded the needle, "These two girls really can't settle down for a moment."
"Children, it's normal for them to be more lively." Zhao Linchuan looked at the direction in which his daughters disappeared, his eyes full of love, "If they are lifeless, they don't look like children anymore."
"Yes." Nong Yu nodded slightly and responded.
She lowered her head and looked at the work in her hands intently, with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"I don't know when my belly will gain enough energy to get pregnant with another child."
"The eldest sister and sister Dong'er have been pregnant for several months. Even sister Zi Nu felt that she was pregnant a few days ago."
"But my unsatisfactory belly has not moved at all until now..."
"Every time you are with your husband, you either play the piano or play music. You don't put in much effort at all. How could you have children?" A smiling voice drifted from outside the door.
Zi Nu crossed the threshold and walked in.
Her complexion was excellent, her face was like a peach blossom, and the unique calmness and charm of a mature woman between her brows and eyes had not been diminished by half because of her pregnancy.
"Sister." Nong Yu heard Zi Nu's voice, and quickly put down the needle and thread in his hand, stood up and hurried forward to greet her.
She stretched out her hand to hold Zi Nu's arm, and put her other hand behind her waist. Her tone was a little nervous. "Be careful and walk slower..."
"Why are you so nervous? I just got pregnant, and I'm not that precious yet." Zi Nu smiled and patted Nong Yu's hand on his arm, and let her help him to walk to the sofa and sit down.
She adjusted her sitting posture on the soft cushion, leaned back slightly, then raised her eyes to Zhao Linchuan and asked:
"Husband, do you know about Zhao Yuanzhou raising the flag to rebel?"
