MTL - The Stepmother is Unkind-Chapter 66

Xie Ce was small and ran around the periphery of the snow maze, but couldn't find the entrance, so he returned to look at the elders in confusion.

Mrs. Xie looked to the south of the maze, where there was a door, but it was blocked.

"Great-grandmother." Xie Ce pulled Madam Xie's sleeve and pointed to the maze, "Enter~"

Mrs. Xie said weakly, "Dalang, take him in."

Xie Qin picked up Xie Ce silently, put him into the maze, and stood outside the snow wall to watch.

Xie Ce was like a fish in the water. As soon as he landed, he ran in the maze. When he reached a dead end, he laughed a few times and turned around to continue running.

He is not afraid of this kind of environment at all. When he first started running, he just ran blindly, but after one or two dead ends, he would find a new way and continue to run.

Occasionally, he would run back to the way he had walked, but he would be able to correct it soon, and then he would get a little closer to the sheep who cried "baaaa-".

In the sight of Mrs. Xie, he disappeared as soon as he landed, leaving only cheerful laughter.

The child's carefree laughter will make people calm and peaceful from the bottom of their hearts.

Madam Xie was speechless at first, but now she also smiled and asked Xie Ce, "Where's Erniang?"

Yin Mingyu naturally slept soundly on the bed.

Xie Qin remembered with a smile in his eyes, and apologized for her: "She may not be able to come and greet grandma, please forgive me."

Mrs. Xie looked at the relaxed look in the eyes of her always serious grandson, walked over with a cane, patted his arm, and then said kindly: "Darlang, don't be too tight."

Xie Qin nodded, glanced sideways at Xie Ce who was running happily in the maze, bowed to his grandmother, and walked away.

In the maze, Xie Ce finally saw the sheep after turning a corner. He opened his arms and shouted, "Sheep!"

When the headless fly-like sheep saw him, finally no longer disliked him, and with its four hooves stomping on the ground a few times, it ran towards him.

As a result, Xie Ce was hit with his feet in the sky, turned his head and fell on the snow. After a while, his snow-stained face lifted up dazedly and looked at the sheep.

Sheep dare not move.

The people around were also taken aback by the sudden change, and they hurriedly turned over to rescue him.

However, Xie Ce had already climbed up by himself, wrapped his arms around the sheep's neck, and led it to find a way.

Madam Xie stopped the servant from entering, but instead said, "Cut that door open."

The servant picked up the tools used for pouring the labyrinth last night directly from the wall, and went to the south of the labyrinth to work.

At this time, my aunt and Bai Zhixu came over and were shocked by the large-scale maze.

"What is this, it's still sitting in the north and facing the south!" My auntie was amazed.

And Mrs. Xie glanced at her, then turned back to the maze, waiting for Xie Ce to bring the sheep out, and said, "Bring him into the house to warm up."

On the other side, Xie Qin took a carriage to the foot of Huguosi Mountain, then got off the carriage and hiked up the mountain.

The novice of the temple folded his hands at him, quietly led him all the way to a very spacious courtyard behind the temple, and then retreated.

The guard at the door stopped Xie Qin, went in to report, and came out again after a while, and politely led Xie Qin inside.

In the meditation room, King Ding, who had passed his 30th year, held a string of Buddha beads in his hand.

After Xie Qin entered the meditation room, he bowed and saluted, "Your Highness."

King Ding slowly opened his eyes, saw him, showed a gentle smile, raised his hand to the futon opposite, and said, "Jing Ming, sit down."

Xie Qin walked over and knelt down on the futon in his arms, with a solemn expression. He was not flattered by King Ding's attitude or anything else.

Filled with sandalwood, King Ding took a sip of hot tea and looked at Xie Qin again.

Xie Qin has the bearing of an aristocratic family, and sits upright without being humble or arrogant, and looking at his own talents, he is indeed the leader of his peers.

King Ding bluntly praised: "A gentleman is like a bamboo, and the demeanor of Jingming, this king is also heartbroken."

Xie Qin politely said: "His Highness is too famous, and the lower officials are too embarrassed to be."

King Ding didn't pay attention to his respect and politeness, and turned to chatting: "I heard that Jingming's family is also here?"

Xie Qin said: "Go back to Your Highness, the grandmother, wife and children of Xiaguan have the heart to worship Buddha, so they came with Xiaguan out of Beijing."

King Ding greeted Mrs. Xie's body, and said that if there was a chance, he would visit Mrs. Xie.

Xie Qinqian just said a few words, his heart was very clear, and he didn't take it seriously.

And King Ding was not in a hurry to win over him, and immediately talked about his business: "Tomorrow's temple fair, this king wants to go out in a light-hearted manner and observe the people's feelings, Jingming, let's walk with this king."

Xie Qin originally had other plans, but King Ding had something to say, so he had to agree.

King Ding picked up the teacup, blew the tea leaves lightly, and said, "This king trusts Jingming. If I don't take things lightly, then Jingming will make arrangements."

Xie Qin paused and responded.

In the evening, Xie Qin went down the mountain and returned to the village of Xie's family. He first went to see his grandmother, and then returned to his and Yin Mingyu's yard.

He is the male master, so there is no need for anyone to notify him when he returns to his house.

As soon as Xie Qinfang approached the door, he heard Yin Mingyu's laughter, the smile on the corner of his mouth was shallow, but as soon as he stepped in, he saw that there was another person in the house, and his expression instantly returned to indifferent.

Bai Zhi Xu Zheng was joking with his cousin, and when he saw his serious cousin coming back, he immediately got up and said hello.

Xie Qin nodded lightly, turned to Yin Mingyu, and asked, "When did it start?"

Yin Mingyu patted Bai Zhixu's hand reassuringly, and replied, "I woke up at the beginning of time."

Xie Qin didn't look at Bai Zhixu, and asked again, "Have you eaten yet?"

Yin Mingyu shook his head, "Not yet."

Bai Zhixu stood aside, inexplicably repelled, cut in a gap, and said goodbye quickly.

Before Yin Mingyu could speak, Xie Qin looked at her, nodded and said, "Go back, I will come back tomorrow to find your cousin to offer incense."

Bai Zhixu nodded and left quickly.

Yin Mingyu watched Bai Zhixu leave, and Xie Qin poured tea and walked past her.

Yin Mingyu's gaze shifted to Xie Qin, "Have you had dinner yet?"

There was a hint of joy in Xie Qin's eyes, and he said, "I am with you."

During dinner, the two ate at the same table, and Xie Qin talked about the arrangements for the two days.

He was not as busy in Zhuangzi as he was in Beijing, and his errands all followed King Ding. If King Ding had nothing to do, he would have nothing to do.

Yin Mingyu listened to what he said, plus Xie Qin took the initiative to tell her about the courtroom and the outside of Xie's house these days, and he had an inaccurate positioning of Xie Qin's position in his heart.

His grandfather and father were almost all extremely talented officials. Even if he was extremely talented, he might not be able to surpass his father and grandfather.

Thinking about the many compliments about Xie Qin in Beijing, Xu is not inferior to his father and grandfather at all, which is inexplicably a pity.

But this is just her idea. After all, she is not in Xie Qin's position, and there is no need to save others and point fingers.

So Yin Mingyu has heard it, and occasionally echoes a few words, but it is not cold.

After dinner, Xie Qin invited Yin Mingyu to listen to the qin. He played the qin in person and led him to the small soup pool behind their yard.

Yin Mingyu was immersed in the hot spring, lying on the edge of the pool, looking at Xie Qin in a moon-white robe, his long hair hanging down on his chest, and fiddling with the strings with his flexible fingers, he asked, "Lang Jun, aren't you cold?"

Yin Mingyu changed into an enchanting posture, and pulled her long hair up to her chest.

The sound of the piano paused, and then continued smoothly.

"Shut up and listen."

Yin Mingyu: "..." It's a pity that the wink was thrown to the blind.

If he was like this all his life, she would probably become an immortal by self-cultivation.

But Xie Qin insisted on playing one song before putting down the piano and entering the water slowly.

The moment he walked slowly in the water, Yin Mingyu only felt that something was dripping from his nose, and with a light touch of his fingers, the red liquid slid down his fingers to the palm of his hand.

Xie Qin was startled, "Second Mother?" He strode towards her.

Yin Mingyu reacted, and quickly raised his head, the index finger knuckles were blocked under the nose, still unable to stop the blood flow.

"Second Mother, what's wrong?" Xie Qin asked her with a nervous voice.

Yin Mingyu turned his back and climbed up with his free hand on the stone by the pool.

Xie Qin picked her up with one hand and took her up. Seeing Yin Mingyu shivered, he rushed out of the hot spring to get her clothes and wrapped her.

Yin Mingyu took a handkerchief, blocked his nose, pushed him away, took a few steps, suddenly fainted, and was supported by Xie Qin just after shaking.

Xie Qin put his hand through the crook of her leg, picked him up, and hurriedly returned to the bedroom of the two of them, wrapped him in a quilt, and immediately asked someone to invite the accompanying doctor.

"Xie Qin!"

Yin Mingyu described sitting under the quilt in embarrassment, staring at him speechlessly, "What doctor please? Sleep with your son!"

After she finished speaking, she grabbed the quilt and covered her head.

It's so absurd...
