Chapter 12: can't be urgent
Blinking his eyes uncomfortably, Nan Jun concealed the disappointment in his eyes, and his face was still indifferent.
After a while, the second young lady brought two bowls of clear porridge and several dishes of delicate side dishes.
"You are weak, you need to take supplements slowly, eat some light food for a few days, and gradually improve in the future."
Nan Jun also wanted to give Qiao Yun some supplements like ginseng and black-bone chicken, but he was worried that he would suffer a great crime if he didn't make up for it, so he accompanied him to order porridge and side dishes.
"Thank you...Your Highness..."
Qiao Yun lowered her head with red ears, hesitated for a moment before thanking her.
"Yun'er, you don't even want to call me elder sister now?"
Nan Jun brazenly touched the little man's hand again, seeing that he didn't break free, he became even bolder, grabbed it directly and never let go.
"But on the day of the wedding, it was His Highness who said that Yun'er is not allowed to call your elder sister again..."
As Qiao Yun spoke, she suddenly turned her head away.
He always remembered that when she was drunk that day, she yelled at him with red eyes: "I'm not your elder sister, don't call me elder sister again in the future, I just..."
Although she fell asleep before she finished speaking, he could guess something.
At that time, she was having a heated fight with the young master of the Lin family, and the young master of the Lin family called her "Sister Yu, good sister" coquettishly, and she forbade him to call her again.
Now that she mentions this matter in front of her again, is she trying to humiliate him, or has she really forgotten the drunken talk that day?
"Yun'er, you and I grew up together, you should understand how I treat you. I have always been your big sister, and I have never changed."
Although he is in the backyard, Qiao Yun still knows something about the intrigue of the royal family. Nan Jun deliberately said these words to Qiao Yun in such a meaningful tone, but he just wanted to mislead him, making him think that what Nan Jun said in the past hurt him The words are forced by the situation, and he, Qiao Yun, is the one in Nan Jun's heart.
Qiao Yun bit his lip and didn't make a sound. He didn't know what Nan Jun was going to do, and he was also confused...
Nan Jun sighed, and decided not to force him, it's better to take things slowly.
"Let's eat first!"
Nan Jun let go of those scarred hands with a depressed expression.
Qiao Yun's heart suddenly twitched, as if being grabbed by someone, it was painful.
With a pair of chopsticks stuffed into his hands, Nan Jun started to eat while holding the bowl.
Even though he was hungry, Qiao Yun didn't gobble up like others. His good upbringing made him behave politely no matter what time he was.
"Eat more, you are too thin."
Nan Jun picked out some shredded chicken from his own bowl to marry Qiao Yun, which was the only meat in the meal.
Qiao Yun looked at the handful of snow-white chicken shreds in the bowl, and suddenly his eyes turned red.
I don't remember how many years, she has never been so kind to him.
Qiao Yun has never been a person who eats a lot, but he ate all the porridge today.
Nan Jun saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart.
Putting all the banknotes and silver on her body beside Nan Nianyun's swaddling clothes, including the purse embroidered with mandarin ducks, Nan Jun stood up reluctantly.
"You rest first, I will come to see you tomorrow."
There was no need for Qiao Yun to see him off, Nan Jun left on his own.
Qiao Yun turned around and found the thick stack of banknotes and the royal blue mandarin duck purse, but the color of the purse was so dazzling that he wanted to cry.
"Boom boom boom..."
The sudden knock on the door made Qiao Yun forget his vigilance, thinking that the man forgot something and came back, so he ran over and opened the door without even asking.
The young lady at the door was startled by the guests inside, and took a step back before handing the bundle in her hand to Qiao Yun.
"My lord, this lady just asked me to send it to you."
"It's time to work."
Qiao Yun lowered his eyes in disappointment, raised his hand to take the burden, then closed the door and walked back to the inner room.
Putting the bundle on the low couch beside him, Qiao Yun was still in a daze, opened the bundle with trembling hands, a set of crescent white clothes lay there, and a small porcelain bottle was placed beside it.
Qiao Yun picked up the porcelain bottle, unplugged it, and brought it to the tip of his nose. The familiar smell made him cry again.
He used this balm all the time in the past, and when he rubbed it on his hands and face in winter, it not only moisturized, but also had a scent.
Presumably she saw the cracks and calluses on her hands, so she asked someone to buy them.
Holding the hot porcelain bottle, Qiao Yun had mixed feelings in his heart. He had to admit that Nan Yun was the most important person to him.
Even if he told himself that he couldn't forgive easily, seeing what she did for him, Qiao Yun felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.
Nan Jun walked out of the Zhuangyuan building and went to Nanfu. She didn't return all night yesterday, so she had to be prepared to be questioned by her father.
As expected, Nan Jun turned the corner of the street and saw Shangguan Xi standing at the door with a serious face.
"I'm back, I'm back..."
Xiao He, who was standing behind Shangguan Xi, was the first to discover Nan Jun, and supported Shangguan Xi's arm and said excitedly.
Shangguan Xi shook off the crowd and hurried towards Nanjun.
"The child has seen the father."
As soon as Nan Jun raised his fist, Shangguan Xi grabbed his hand.
"You child, when did you leave the mansion? Why didn't you explain to the people in the mansion?"
While complaining, Shangguan Xi dragged Nan Jun to the mansion. When he went to Nan Jun's yard in the morning, he found that the child had disappeared. Thinking that she had just recovered from a serious illness, he was very worried.
The servants in the mansion were sent out to search for someone, but there was no news until noon. If Nan Jun didn't come back, Shangguan Xi was going to go to the palace to ask the emperor to help him find someone.
Nan Jun sneaked out of the mansion last night while everyone was asleep, so Shangguan Xi didn't know about it, and thought it was the child who sneaked out while the guards were changing shifts. After all, Nan Jun did not do this less in the past. thing.
"After sleeping for so long, it's really boring, so the boy went out for a walk."
Nan Jun was not in a hurry, and just walked slowly with Shangguan Xi.
"Even if you want to go out, you still have to bring some servants with you, right? You are alone... If something like that happens again, how can father live!"
As Shangguan Xi spoke, he began to wipe away his tears again.
Nan Jun frowned slightly, but he still patiently coaxed his delicate father.
Shangguan Xi is also a hard-working man, he just got married and didn't enjoy a few years of good life before he lost his wife.
After finally surviving until her daughter grows up, this child is not up to expectations, and now he is not only this Nanjun, but also Shangguanxi's good luck.
"Is lunch ready?"
Shangguan Xi always felt that the daughter who woke up this time was a little different from the past, but he couldn't say exactly what was different.
Besides, in private, Shangguan Xi also liked this daughter more, after all, she had never been so close to him before.
