Chapter 44: Kissed her cheek

Early the next morning.
Nan Baoyi slept soundly, and was suddenly awakened by the gentle lotus leaf: "Miss wakes up, it's dawn. You are here, you can't wait for the second son."
Nan Baoyi wiped her saliva in a daze, "Isn't the second brother coming back?"
"I heard the young man in the front yard said that the second son and General Situ had a drink outside last night, and stayed in the restaurant for one night when it was late, and just returned home."
Nan Baoyi hurriedly said, "Where is he now?"
"In Songheyuan, please speak with the old lady."
"I'll check it out!"
Before Nan Baoyi ran out, he was dragged back by the lotus leaf. "Miss will freshen up first. I've shown this to others, and I want to laugh at you."
Nan Baoyi looked at the bronze mirror.
Her clothes are disheveled, and her hair is slanted, she is really unsightly.
She rubbed the tip of her nose shyly.
Finally dressed up, it was an hour after arriving at Songheyuan.
Many relatives came to Songhe Courtyard for some reason, and the flower hall was crowded.
Nan Baoyi quietly looked around, and Xiao Yi sat beside his grandmother, with a cold and deep posture, and was greeting relatives around him.
Although it is a careless gesture, it does not give people a feeling of contemptuousness.
He seems to be born with an unattainable elegance.
After listening to Nan Baoyi for a while, she realized that Xiao Yi had been appreciated by Situ Lin, and made an exception to promote him to the sixth rank of defense, under his account that he was in charge of military rations and military expenses, and formally took office seven days later.
With her fingertips unconsciously tricking the corner of her sleeve, her rebirth has changed a lot of things, even the time for Xiao Yi to enter the officialdom has been advanced...
It's a good thing, right?
Thinking about this, grandmother smiled kindly: "Jiao Jiao'er is here?"
Nan Baoyi walked into the flower hall respectfully, greeting the elders one by one.
She peeked at Xiao Yi, he was sitting tightly, not looking at her.
The grandmother exhorted again: "A few of your cousins ​​and Girl Zhu are playing in the garden, go quickly and entertain them."
Nan Baoyi responded, and couldn't help looking at Xiao Yi.
He was talking to a cousin and grandfather, and he obviously didn't have time to take care of her.
Her eyes darkened, she bowed her head and walked out.
When it was time for lunch, she went to see Xiao Yi holding the money to win, but the male family had already opened the table.
Even if it was only a sixth-grade official, it was not easy for the Nan family to be an official. Xiao Yi was treated as a by his relatives, and there was a lot of enthusiasm during the dinner. It was impossible for her to squeeze in to speak, let alone give gifts.
Nan Baoyi had to play with his cousins ​​absently for another half day.
The finches came home, and the evening light gradually slipped off the glazed tiles.
Finally bid farewell to relatives, Nan Baoyi also got free.
She ran back to Chaowenyuan happily, but Xiao Yi hadn't returned yet.
She stood utterly under the eaves.
After the aftertaste passed by, he curiously asked: "Why is the young lady standing here alone?"
"I prepared a gift for my second brother and want to give it to him personally."
Aftertaste smiled, "The master is still talking to the old lady in Songheyuan, I am afraid that we will have dinner there. Don't wait, the evening wind is strong, if the wind is cold, the master will feel distressed."
Nan Baoyi didn't speak, but a sour grievance filled his heart.
When the aftertaste was gone, she walked back to the large study listlessly.
Here are piles of gifts from relatives to Xiao Yi. They are all precious and rare treasures, such as thousand-year-old ginseng, red jade agate, jade screen, gold paperweight, etc., even if she is used to seeing treasures, she is still dumbfounded.
Yes, the second elder brother is on the official journey and should give gifts.
She looked at the copper coin in her palm, feeling a little guilty for a while.
Compared with the gifts of others, how can she handle such ordinary things?
Will be looked down upon by the second brother.
She stepped out of the study in melancholy and sat on the steps.
The setting sun sinks into the sky, the twilight light and shadow leaps in the garden, and the colorful flowers are a little lingering, like she can't lift the spirit.
She held her small face in both hands and silently stared at the direction of the courtyard door.
She thought that even if she didn't give a gift, it would be nice to say "thank you" to him in person and another "congratulations".
The moonlight melts.
Lanterns flicker under the eaves, the garden is mottled with light and shadow, the spring is deep and the flowers are cold, and the night sounds of crickets can be heard faintly in the distance.
Nan Baoyi tightened his clothes tightly and stared at the direction of the courtyard door eagerly.
The moon shadow crossed the wall of flowers, but the boy still did not come back.
She dozed off for a while, and murmured aggrievedly: "The moon is in the sky, why haven't you come back..."
She couldn't help being sleepy, and gradually fell asleep on the steps.
When Xiao Yi was invited back by the aftertaste, he saw the little girl outside the study from a distance.
She was afraid of the cold and slept like a cub curled up.
Is she waiting for him?
The aftertaste whispered: "Miss waited for the master all day, and prepared gifts for you. The slave and maidservant looked at the poor, so she dared to invite the master back."
Xiao Yi approached and said, "Nan Baoyi."
The little girl was asleep.
Xiao Yi was silent, picked her up, and walked towards her bedroom.
He put the little the Babu bed.
Nan Baoyi's face was tender and delicate, like a hibiscus that was about to bloom, and her bright red lips looked extra gentle.
When she got closer, she could smell the scent of hibiscus on her skin.
He knew that she used to use floral-scented cheeks and creams.
He reached out and touched her cheek.
The girl's skin was chilly, and she must have waited for him in the cold wind for a long time.
He carefully covered her with a quilt.
She was nestled deep in the quilt. Xu Shi met something unhappy in her dream. She pursed her lips slightly, her cheeks bulging like a squirrel, which made him have the urge to kiss...
This idea surprised Xiao Yi.
But I heard from the students in the academy that they also liked their younger sisters, even though they meant one or two years of age.
However, Nan Jiaojiao is only twelve years old, and she is not in time yet. She should be considered a young child, right?
Xiao Yi unilaterally felt it was worth it.
So he leaned forward, closed his eyes and approached.
He smelled the deep and sweet fragrance of hibiscus.
It's Nan Jiaojiao's taste...
His heart was quiet, and he kissed her cheek like a dragonfly.
Opened his eyes, but saw the little girl wake up somehow, looking at him as if she was stupid.
