After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

Chapter 231 Xiao Yi and Nan Jiaojiao when they were young (2)

It was the next winter when I met my third aunt again.

It snowed a lot that year.

He walked through the corridor and met the third aunt at the corner.

The third aunt hugged Xiao Baoyi, saw him, and said pleasantly, "It's been a long time since I saw him, Xiao Yi has grown a lot taller. Jiaojiao, quickly call second brother!"

Xiao Yi was expressionless.

Although he is busy with reading and practicing martial arts every day, he knows how the people in the house pamper their younger sisters.

"Jiaojiao" is exactly the small characters that the old lady chose for her.

Xiao Baoyi was wearing a thick red padded jacket, with a cinnabar mole on her brow, like a dragon girl doll in a New Year painting, which was carefully placed on the ground by her third aunt.

She raised her face, her eyes sparkled, and her voice was sweet and soft: "Second, Second Brother!"

She bent her knees in a dignified way, folded her chubby little hands on her waist, imitating others to do the Wanfu salute, but unconsciously raised her little finger, she was charming and silly.

The third aunt covered her lips and smiled lightly, "We Jiaojiao are so cute! Xiaoyi, do you want to hug my sister?"

Xiao Yi was expressionless.

He is already a man, how can he hug a little girl?

He would never touch such a naive girl in his life.

He said coldly: "No. The academy left homework, Third Aunt, take your leave."

He missed it.

After walking a few steps, I heard the little girl who didn't have much milk say: "Mother, second brother, fierce, ugly."

There was a slight pause in the footsteps.

His face was as gloomy as water.

This girl actually called him ugly?

The third aunt laughed.

She said: "It's snowing heavily here, Xiao Yi, I'll go back and get the cloak, you can take care of Jiaojiao for a while, okay?"

Xiao Yi agreed.

The red-painted veranda is winding and long, and there is heavy snow falling outside the veranda, which is the season when dripping water turns into ice.

He knelt down on one knee in front of the little girl, and reached out to poke the cinnabar mole on the center of her eyebrow.

The little girl, who loves beauty, hastily covered her forehead and stared at him warily.

He took a handful of candy from his pocket.

The nougat from the Dayong Palace is very fragrant.

He said: "Call me brother, I'll give you a piece of candy."

The little girl's eyes were clear and soft.

Her little voice was so soft as hell: "Brother! Brother!"

Xiao Yi stuffed two nougats into her pocket, peeled off the kraft paper, and fed her one.

Milk is delicious.

The little girl frowned, "Brother, Tangtang is so sweet!"

When the third aunt came back with her cloak, the little girl's bag was bulging and filled with fragrant nougat.

Xiao Yi returned to the loquat courtyard to practice martial arts, and the soft appearance of the little girl always appeared in his mind.

He suddenly felt that it was good to have a younger sister.

The snow is clear at night.

He reads around the fire in the Loquat Courtyard,

The little attendant Shi Yan came back with a food box.

He said: "My lord, I found nougat in the snow. It seems to be the kind that the empress sent someone from Chang'an to bring to you. It's really strange. Does Jinguan City also have candies from the Great Yong Palace?"

Xiao Yi closed the book.

He got up and left the loquat courtyard quickly.

The little girl was gluttonous and coquettish, so it was impossible for her to throw the nougat in the snow.

Something may have happened to her.

As it turned out, his guess was correct.

He walked along the Loquat Courtyard towards the kitchen, and quickly found scattered nougatose in the snowdrift under the light of the snow.

After searching for a while, he saw a pothole.

It was dug out by Nan Chengyi, Erfang's son-in-law who wanted to be a ranger in the daytime. It is said that he was making a trap to catch rabbits in the garden.

At this time the pothole was buried by heavy snow, Xiao Yi stretched out his hands to dig open the soft snow, the little girl nestled in the snow cave, wearing a red brocade jacket, was Nan Baoyi.

The pocket of the big red brocade jacket was torn by a branch, so the candies fell to the ground one after another.

Her brows and eyelashes were covered with rustling snow, her little face was flushed with cold, and she held a carrot in her arms.

Well, Nan Chengyi's rabbit was not caught, but his sister was caught.

If he came a quarter of an hour late tonight, the little girl would have suffocated to death in the snow cave.

Shiku and Shiyan came to find him with a lantern.

Shi Ku said: "Master, there is a commotion in the backyard, and it is said that the fifth girl is missing. It seems that the wet nurse accidentally fell asleep, and the fifth girl took the opportunity to slip out-eh, isn't it the fifth girl that you are holding?"

Xiao Yi gently stroked the fine snow on Nan Baoyi's cheek.

He carried the little girl on his back and walked towards Jinyi Pavilion.

He secretly put the little girl in an eye-catching place, and hid it behind the red-painted corridor pillars. He saw the little maids in Jinyi Pavilion yelling and carried her back, and then returned to the Loquat Courtyard.

after that……

There are more and more things he has to learn.

On the surface, he is the unfavored adopted son of Nanfu.

But behind the scenes, he received careful instruction from his master from Chang'an. He had to learn everything except the art of the emperor.

Several spring and autumn.

The number of times he met the little girl became less and less, and when he came back to his senses, she had grown from a white and tender little glutinous rice dumpling to an eight or nine-year-old naughty girl.

The pampering of the elders in the house made her a domineering dude.

Climbing trees into the water, catching fish and rabbits, there is nothing she is not good at.

He also likes to bully people.

His forbearance for the sake of the third aunt aroused her interest even more.

At that time, the third aunt's health was deteriorating, and she had to stay in bed all year round and hang herself with expensive decoction every day in order to continue her life.

When the little girl was ten years old, the third aunt finally became critically ill.

The rhododendrons in the garden were in full bloom that year, red as blood.

The Nan family and the Song family began to visit Jinyi Pavilion frequently.

All kinds of rare supplements were sent into Jinyi Pavilion like water, but they were of no use.

The sound of the rules.

At dusk, he quietly stepped into the third aunt's bedroom.

The tranquil and elegant fragrance of flowers in the room was replaced by a strong medicinal fragrance.

The light and shadow are confused, and the curtains are drooping.

He sat on the side of the couch, rolled up the curtain, and saw that the third aunt was sick and haggard but calm.

Xu Shiruo felt something, and the third aunt slowly opened her eyes.

She smiled and said, "Xiao Yi."

Xiao Yi was expressionless, pointing to the brocade box on the table with his downcast eyes, "I brought a 600-year-old wild ginseng to my third aunt."

"Such a good thing, don't spoil it on me."

The woman coughed and slowly sat up.

She was very thin, with prominent cheekbones, and she was far from the beautiful woman she met in the garden for the first time.

She gently tucked the corner of the quilt for the person nestled in the bed.

Only then did Xiao Yi notice that Nan Baoyi was still sleeping in Babu's bed.

The little girl slept in a ball, unconsciously clutching the corners of her mother's clothes with her thin white hands, with crystal clear teardrops on her eyelashes, she cried for a long time before going to bed.

It turned out that as stubborn as Nan Jiaojiao, she also knew what death meant.

"I've always known that you are a capable person." The third aunt said softly, "Xiao Yi, from now on, take care of Jiaojiao for aunt, don't tell her to be as miserable as I am, okay?"

Xiao Yi was silent, and nodded slowly.

The evening light of spring comes through the window.

Third Aunt's smile was satisfied and serene, warmer than the setting sun.

She leaned down and kissed Nan Jiaojiao's eyebrows tenderly.
