It seemed that she was really sleepy. After lying down, she closed her eyes. After a while, her mouth opened unconsciously, breathed in a long and even manner, and fell asleep.

I sat beside her, looking at her quiet and cute sleeping face, raised my head and looked at this room that was too quiet.

After a while, he smiled faintly, and still reached out and patted her quilt gently like when she was a child.

Time passed by little by little. When I couldn't continue doing it, I stood up, my feet were a little numb. I slowly walked out of the room and looked up. Two maids serving outside the door were looking at me carefully.

I said softly, "Please be careful and don't be like before."

"I dare not, I dare not."

I nodded and looked back. Li'er was sleeping peacefully in the bed, with only her little mouth muttering and murmuring. I didn't think about how true or false her sleep was. I just sighed softly, turned around and walked out.

When I returned to the inner courtyard, it was already noon.

Although I didn't do anything for a whole morning, I was a little tired and pushed open the door with my head down. When I looked up, I saw Pei Yuanxiu sitting at the big table in the middle of the room. I heard the sound of me pushing the door, and turned my head to look at me.

"You're back."

"You're back."

We both spoke at the same time, and were stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed.

He walked to the door and grabbed my hand: "Where did you go one morning? I asked them, and they all said you were not in the house."

"Oh, I'll go out for a walk."

"The scenery of this house is still good in spring. The weather is cold now, so don't stay outside for too long."

"knew."

While talking, he held hands and sat down at the table. Then he ordered outside. After a while, several maids came in and started to set dishes on the table.

I was slightly stunned: "You haven't eaten yet?"

"No. I want to eat with you."

"I--"

"Don't say you have no appetite," he gave me a slight anger: "I asked, you didn't eat anything in the morning."

"I--"

I was about to say that I had drunk the heir soup and couldn't eat anything, but after a while, I looked at the table full of steaming food, swallowed the words back, and said with a smile: "I don't have much appetite."

"It makes you not be sure to say you have no appetite, you still say it."

“…”

I was blocked by him for a moment. Before he could react, he had already picked up a piece of fish and put it in my bowl with a smile: "Eat well."

"..." I glanced at him, and didn't say anything after all, and smiled faintly: "Okay."

There were only two people eating, so there were not so many rules and there were not so many things to talk about. For a moment, only the sound of bowls and chopsticks being bumped in the room. I didn’t eat much, but he always stared at my bowl. As long as I finished a bite of the dish, he would immediately pick up some dishes and stuff them into my bowl.

I have no other way, I can only eat it.

I ate a lot of food after going all the way.

The maids all retreated after they had cooked the dishes. I think they would probably not leave the inner courtyard. They were waiting outside the door, but they were quiet and didn't even say a word.

I swallowed another bite of the dish, and saw him picking up some more piled up in my bowl, I thought about it, and then smiled and said, "What did you do in the morning? I asked them, and they all said you are in the Conciliation Pavilion."

"Well, discuss something with them."

"…Miss Zitong, are you here too?"

“At the same.”

He paused, looked at me again, and said with a smile: "What did you ask her for?"

"Uh, I have nothing to do. I want to talk to her, but I know she is there too."

He was slightly stunned: "Talking to her? You and her, she is not treating you--"

I smiled: "She is impatient, but she is still not bad."

After saying that, he lowered his head and ate a bite of the meal.

Pei Yuanxiu stopped instead and looked at me in a daze. I felt a little uncomfortable with his gaze. He raised his head and met his gaze: "What's wrong?"

"Qingying, I think..." He hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Although I married you, I still can't understand you."

“…”

I was looked at by his inquiring gaze for a while, and for a while, I smiled faintly.

"Everyone has married you, what else can you understand and not understand?"

“…”

"Let's have a meal."

After saying that, I also picked up a chopstick of dishes and put them in his bowl.

He looked down at the dishes in the bowl, looked up at me again, and immediately smiled, lowered his head and started eating again.
