The daily life of a talented young husband who travels through a book and suffers from cruelty

Chapter 167
"Miss?"

After being called out by the husband, Li Xiaodao came back to his senses, Xiao Xizi also seemed to wake up from a dream, the two of them applauded together: "Well played!"

"Pei Xiucai, I don't know why, your song makes me want to go into battle with a knife to kill the enemy!" Xiao Xizi touched his chest feelingly.

Hearing this, Li Xiaodao and Pei Zhiqi both laughed.

Originally, she was worried that this blow would make Xianggong depressed, but now it seems unnecessary, Xianggong played the zither so full of fighting spirit.

While the three of them were talking, there were two soft knocks on the door, and then someone whispered outside: "Pei Xiucai, Miss Li, Guanshi Li said you can go back."

Xiao Xizi felt puzzled when she heard this, and hurriedly opened the door to see that there was no one there.

He turned back to look at Li Xiaodao and Pei Zhiqi in doubt, Li Xiaodao smiled awkwardly and made up a few sentences: "I... We wanted to meet Li Guanshi, he was busy so he asked us to wait here. But now it seems He really isn't free, since we don't have time to see him, let's go back! Xianggong!"

Pei Zhiqi smiled and said, "Okay."

"Okay, now it might be dark when we go back to the provincial capital, let's hurry up, it will be troublesome if we go back later to catch the curfew," Xiao Xizi said.

So the three of them left the house together and walked outside the gate of the manor.

When they got outside the gate, Xiao Xizi drove the carriage to the gate, Li Xiaodao and Pei Zhiqi got into the carriage and started their journey back to the provincial capital.

Fortunately, Xiao Xizi was very skilled at driving, so she was fast on the way back, and it was only dark when she arrived in the provincial capital.

I don't know if my parents have gone back and if they have time to cook dinner.On the way into the provincial capital, they met a snack seller. The three of them stopped the carriage and ate flat food soup together, and packed two meat dumplings before heading back.

After arriving home, Li Xiaodao asked Xiao Xizi to go back to rest. She and her husband walked to the door of the house and saw that the door was locked from the outside.

Dad and mother haven't come back yet?That's right, there is still more than an hour before the curfew, so it's normal not to come back.

Without thinking too much, Li Xiaodao took out the key and opened the door.

The two entered the main room and lit the lamp. Pei Zhiqi was about to put the meat dumpling on the table and take a rest with his wife, but found a letter on the table, and there was no writing on the cover of the letter.

Li Xiaodao also saw the letter, she walked up to Pei Zhiqi, and said doubtfully, "Sir, this is..."

Pei Zhiqi looked at the lady, and he had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart.

He opened the letter, and it was really his father's handwriting.

There were not many words on the letter, and Pei Zhiqi quickly read it. He put the letter on the table and sat down slowly.

Li Xiaodao hadn't finished reading it yet, and the writing with this brush was not much better than hers, and it took a lot of effort to read, so he picked up the letter again and read it slowly.

This……

After reading the letter, Li Xiaodao also put down the letter, and slowly sat beside Xianggong.

Parents leave a letter without saying goodbye, and the two have returned to Baima Village today.

The letter also said that today they went to Nanshu Temple to meet Li Guanshi, and Li Guanshi told them that the princess already knew about this matter, and asked the husband not to worry, and follow Li Guanshi's instructions first.

No wonder I didn't see Guanshi Li when I was eating at Wanfu Biezhuang at noon today, but I saw him in the afternoon. It should be that I went to Biezhuang after meeting my parents at Nanshu Temple.

Regarding whether they are Xianggong's biological parents, although the letter did not explicitly state it, it wrote a sentence at the end, no matter what their identities, the two of them will try their best to protect Xianggong's safety.

This is basically frank.

"Sir, are you sure this is father's handwritten letter?" Li Xiaodao suddenly asked after sitting for a while.

"Ah."

"Then do you see any traces of being forced to rush or leave any secret signs when Dad wrote?"

Pei Zhiqi shook his head and said, "No."

Li Xiaodao sighed in his heart, it's not easy for his parents, they seem to be ordinary people, but they have kept a secret for 20 years, raised their husband, and still worry about his safety.

Speculation is guesswork, but it still hurts when the parents who have raised you for 20 years actually admit that they are not biological.

Li Xiaodao held Pei Zhiqi's hand, and said softly: "Sister, don't be too sad, your parents treat you sincerely, and the reason for leaving without saying goodbye today is probably not because they want to go back to work on spring farming, but because they are also very sad and don't want to be with you. Xianggong said these things to his face, so he hurried back."

Pei Zhiqi nodded and said, "I understand."

Li Xiaodao wanted to say something comforting, but he didn't know what to say.

She felt that it would be better to let Mr. Xiang be quiet than to say anything.

"Sir, sit down for a while. I'll take the rice dumpling to the kitchen and store it. I'll boil some hot water. I've been out shopping all day today. Let's take a hot bath tonight!"

She mentioned the meat dumpling and was about to leave, but Pei Zhiqi stopped her.

"Mistress, let me go." After saying that, Pei Zhiqi stood up and prepared to go out.

Li Xiaodao blocked him with his body: "I'll go, I'll go, Xianggong sit here and take a while."

Pei Zhiqi smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, my lady, I'm fine. Then I'll fetch water, and my lady will light the fire, so it's quicker."

Li Xiaodao thought for a while: "Okay!"

Also, it is easy to think wildly while sitting, and let Xianggong do physical work to vent, maybe it will get better sooner.

After the water was boiled, Li Xiaodao insisted that the gentleman wash it first, but Pei Zhiqi couldn't hold back his wife, so he washed it first.

After that, Li Xiaodao also took a hot bath comfortably, then checked whether the door was locked, and went upstairs after confirming that it was correct.

On the second floor, Li Xiaodao opened the bedroom door, the lights in the room were still on, and the husband had already lay down.

She turned off the light, touched the bed, and got into the bed. The bed was already warmed by her husband, and it was very comfortable to tuck her into it.

Li Xiaodao was next to Xianggong, who was lying on his side facing her with his eyes closed.

She didn't know if Xianggong was asleep or not. He looked like this if he was asleep or not. He was so quiet that he couldn't tell.

Take a bath and sleep like this, even if you can't feel better, at least your body is comfortable, Li Xiaodao thought so, lay down next to Xiang Ping, and closed his eyes.

Encountered too many things today, and the information kept circulating in his head, Li Xiaodao knew that he would not be able to fall asleep quickly tonight.

If there were no such things, it would be nice to simply live with my husband every day.

When Li Xiaodao was thinking wildly, suddenly Xianggong's arms embraced her, wanting to hold her in his arms.

Hey, guessing that Xianggong didn't fall asleep so quickly, Li Xiaodao turned sideways along Xianggong's arm, and got into his arms steadily.

She knew Xianggong's temperament, no matter how uncomfortable she felt, she would not tell it, so give him a hug, hoping it would make him feel better.

"Master, can't you sleep? Would you like me to count the sheep for you?" Li Xiaodao whispered in his arms.

Pei Zhiqi smiled lightly, he hugged the lady's arm tightly, and said softly, "No need."

"Although the weather has gotten warmer recently, but the spring has been cold these two days, I don't know if it will be cold for my parents to ride in the carriage. The journey is too hard," Li Xiaodao said again.

"I looked at the cabinet in the guest bedroom just now. My mother and father brought back all the cotton clothes we bought, but I don't know if I have brought enough dry food and pocketbooks," Pei Zhiqi sighed softly.

Li Xiaodao also laughed, and she whispered again: "If my husband is worried, tomorrow we will go to the Civil Letters Bureau and return a letter to my family. The letter will arrive soon after my parents arrive home, and then I will wait another ten days before my husband returns. The academy will receive a reply before."

"it is good."
