Chapter 146.1

Xiao Qiao continued to hold her daughter in her arms and waited until she was asleep before gently placing her on the bed.

The weather was getting hot, and the little one was so chubby that her neck and arms were sweaty when she slept.

Xiao Qiao unfolded a thin coverlet to cover her body. Then, she asked the nanny to look after her and went to Mrs. Xus place.

When she arrived at the north house, she went to see Mrs. Xu first. She only asked a few questions about the journey, then allowed her to see Fei Fei.

Currently, she is in the garden that Xiao Qiao had built for her, watering a bush of newly transplanted Jishan Chongtai roses.

The yard was lively, with rose branches, leaves stained with water droplets, and various colors of flower bones. The fragrance attracted a few fluttering bees and butterflies. A black moth with golden dots suddenly flew from the slant and hit Mrs. Xu. Snapped, it fell on its back in the mud, vibrating its wings with a buzzing sound, trying to turn over and fly again, but in vain.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

The cat came out from a corner, pounced on it with agility, held it down with one paw, sniffed it, and played with it. Mrs. Xu took the cat away and turned the moth over on its back.

The black moth arced through the air and disappeared into the flowers.

Is Fei Fei asleep? Mrs. Xu withdrew her gaze and smiled.

Yes. Xiao Qiao responded.

Grandmother . She called out again as if there were a million words in her throat that she wanted to say. But there was no way to speak.

Pass the shears for me. Mrs. Xu said.

Xiao Qiao took it from Old Zhongs hand and handed it up.

Mrs. Xu took the shears and carefully cut off a cluster of decaying leaves with white insect eggs on them.

I know all about it. She said while pruning the branches and leaves. Its good that Shaoer can restrain himself. I heard your father lost his eyesight. How is he now?

It had been almost a year and a half since they had seen Wei Liang. Suddenly, they learned that Wei Liang could return home to visit his family in a few days. Wei Liangs mother and wife were delighted. They felt grateful to the lady for visiting them.

When Xiao Qiao said goodbye, Wei Liangs mother insisted sent her to the door despite her old age.

On the way home, Xiao Qiaos heart was filled with mixed feelings as the smiling faces of Wei Liangs mother and wife appeared before her eyes a few moments ago.

The carriage moved slowly through the street, approaching the Wei Mansion, and stopped at the entrance.

Xiao Qiao was helped off the carriage by Chun Niang and saw a black horse tied to the tethering post next to the lion stone on the right side of the gate.

The horse was tall and majestic, with long hooves and a shiny body drenched with sweat. The horse slave was beside it, wiping its sweat.

Masters horse!

Chun Niang recognized it at a glance and blurted out, her voice full of surprise.

Xiao Qiaos heart jumped, and all the blood in her body flowed faster.

When the gatekeeper saw that the carriage had returned, he greeted her: The lady has returned! Master also has returned! Almost at the same time as you!

Chun Niang took Xiao Qiaos arm, hurriedly dragged her into the gate, straight to the west house, and stopped when she reached the courtyard gate. Her footsteps were a bit fast, and Xiao Qiao gasped after she stopped.

Outside the house, a line of servants stood at the bottom of the steps. Old Lin looked at the courtyards door and saw Xiao Qiao. She hurriedly greeted her, smiling, lowering her voice, and saying: Master is back! He is in the room! The little Miss is asleep, and Master is beside her, looking at her without blinking. Aiya, his heart is going to melt

Chun Niangs eyes showed joy. She continued to lead Xiao Qiao to the steps, helping her put her scattered hair behind her ears. After examining her, she smiled and said softly: You are beautiful today. Go inside.

Xiao Qiao stopped at the door, fixed her mind, gently pushed it open, and walked in.
