He was wrapped in a black cloak, and his handsome face was like the most beautiful picture.
The long black hair was scattered casually on the side of his face, and Lin Mengya's eyes were carefully tracing his eyebrows.
Unknowingly, she had a smile on her face, and she sat quietly next to him, watching his rare sleeping face.
The carriage shook slightly, but he did not move.
Lin Mengya knew that he was not asleep yet.
Whenever danger strikes, that person will immediately jump up to meet the enemy.
But she would rather let him rest for a while, even just for a while.
"looks good?"
Starry eyes suddenly opened, and she looked unprepared as she fell into those dark pupils.
Lin Mengya did not hide, nor did she feel shy.
Instead, he nodded generously and praised without hesitation.
"It's beautiful, the most beautiful in the world."
These words, nothing special, actually made him so happy.
Unable to help but put a proud smile on his lips, he sat up and signaled that he could move towards him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Lin Mengya sat down, the man put his head on her lap and continued to sleep with his eyes closed.
Lin Mengya didn't make fun of him, she just gently spread his hair with her hands to let him sleep more peacefully.
In the carriage, after smelling the unique fragrance of this man, Murong Xi felt that he was focused and not disturbing at all.
"What kind of incense do you use on your body?"
Lin Mengya's eyes flashed. What he liked most in the past was the scent of medicine on his body.
It seems that this habit has not changed.
"It smells of herbs and spices."
"Ah, very good."
This person's answer was still so concise and I would go my own way, but this time, she had a lot of advice, so let him go.
The car ran for a long time. Lin Mengya took a look and saw that it was almost out of the city.
Since he is his adopted son, shouldn't he be raised in the house?
But soon, she followed Long Tianyu into the inconspicuous courtyard.
As soon as I entered the door, I was greeted by servants.
That person must be his confidant, even if he saw himself, he turned a blind eye.
"Where's Xun'er?"
When mentioning the child, Long Tianyu didn't appear to be very gentle.
Lin Mengya felt a little strange. After all, hadn't he acquiesced to Chonghua to take the bell from his car for Xun'er's sake?
"The young master is studying in the backyard. Do you want me to invite you?"
"No need, I'll go over and take a look."
Taking Lin Mengya with them, the two of them walked through the front yard and arrived at a more secluded area. Quiet backyard.
Before I even entered, I could hear some excitement.
When they entered, they found a boy in blue, about six or seven years old, riding on a child much younger than him.
Moreover, he kept scolding me.
"Useless thing! You can't even be a horse. Tomorrow I will ask my adoptive father to beat you to death and throw you out to feed the wolves!"
It was hard for Lin Mengya to imagine that these words actually came from the mouth of a child.
At that moment, her face turned cold.
He walked over quickly and pulled up the arrogant child.
"How can you bully the weak?"
She glared at the child in blue, then knelt down and pulled up the one on the ground.
But he didn't expect that the child huddled up in a ball and dressed in rags was actually the little boy he saw in front of the snow sculpture that night.
"Are you okay? But where are you injured?"
The little boy looked a little more embarrassed than that day.
His thin, dark face was covered with scars, and even his clothes were covered in dust.
"Where did you come from, a shameless vixen? Let me tell you, I am the adopted son of His Highness Xi! If you dare to control me, be careful that I let my adopted father kill your whole family in the future!"
As a little child, I don’t know where the anger comes from.
Lin Mengya glanced at the child. With his green eyes, snow-white face, and tall nose, he looked like a foreigner.
But she felt that it was lucky that this child was not Ning'er, otherwise, she would be upset to death.
"Whether he is His Highness Xi's adopted son or the Emperor's prince, it is wrong to bully the weak. You are just relying on your identity as His Highness Xi's adopted son. Without this identity, who among them would listen to you?"
She doesn't hate children, because as a mother, she has a little more maternal care for the children in the world.
But this does not mean that she will tolerate unreasonable naughty children indefinitely.
"You! You are so brave! You actually dare to speak to me like this. You are all blind. Why don't you tie her up for me!"
Xun'er's eyes widened and he shouted to the person next to him without any politeness.
But behind him, Murong Xi's face was gloomy. Who dared to move?
Finally, Xun'er noticed something unusual. He followed everyone's gaze and looked over, but was stunned as if he had received an electric shock.
"Father"
Xun'er was startled and froze on the spot.
Then, suddenly, she ran to Murong Xi crying, pulling on his clothes and sobbing.
"Father, they all bullied me and you have to avenge me!"
Such a two-faced person, Lin Mengya picked up the little boy and looked on coldly.
It is said that a child's heart is like a pure white paper, but it is obvious that this child named Xun'er has been spoiled.
She doesn't care how old the child is, if she doesn't teach him well since he was a child, he's afraid it will be harder to teach him when he grows up.
"I asked you to watch him, and I didn't let you manipulate him. I locked him in a room and asked my husband to educate him strictly."
Murong Xi's expression was cold. Originally, he thought the child was smart and sensible, so he had some affection for him.
But he didn't expect that since he entered his own garden, he has been crying all day long to punish those who took care of him.
At first he was patient, but later he felt that this child might not be suitable for his villa.
Unexpectedly, it was only today that I finally understood why those people were so angry towards Xun'er but dared not speak out.
"Your Highness, I would like to borrow your place. This child is really pitiful."
The little guy in Lin Mengya's arms seemed to have almost no weight.
The pair of eyes she saw that day, which were quite intelligent, now looked a little dull.
Not only did the frostbite on her little hands not heal, she discovered through the child's torn shoes and cotton-padded coat with a short heel that there were too many frostbitten areas on the child's body.
Who would have known that when she first brought the little guy into the house, Lin Mengya wanted to help the little guy untie his cotton-padded clothes, but the little guy kept dodging.
She had no choice but to stop and explain to the little guy in a soft voice that she would not hurt him and could help him look at the wound, so that he would not feel uncomfortable.
But the little guy refused to die. Lin Mengya watched him keep looking out the window, and then she came to her senses.
"Where are this child's parents?"
Murong Xi, who had been following her, immediately asked someone to ask.
After a while, the news came.
"Replying to the Lord, this child is the child of a domestic slave in Princess Chonghua's family. The princess was afraid that Young Master Xun would have no playmates, so she sent him over to relieve Young Master Xun's boredom."
It’s Chonghua again!
When Lin Mengya heard this name, she became furious.
"In that case, I will take the child away. If your child suffers such a crime, there is a high probability that he is not his biological parent."
She was a little angry. Even if the child was the child of a domestic slave, he couldn't be abused like this, right?
Seeing her being so angry, Murong Xi felt a little tired of Chonghua.
"Just do as you say. Since you are the person who was sent to my house, it is up to me to decide how to deal with him."
r>
"yes."
The servant followed the order and left, while Lin Mengya took the child into her arms again without fear of getting dirty.
"Your Highness, the child's condition is not very good. I have to go back and take care of him. I'll take my leave."
She looked at Lin Mengya angrily. The child was right, but the adult's education was wrong.
Xun'er was spoiled like this, and Long Tianyu, as the adoptive father, has an unshirkable responsibility.
But Murong Xi was a little confused and stepped forward to stop her and ask her a few words.
But he was suddenly thrown away.
"Xun'er is your adopted son. Since you recognize him, you should be responsible for his future. If something goes wrong, you can't blame the child alone. I'll leave first. You can think about it yourself."
Murong Xi felt a little aggrieved. Xun'er didn't have much contact with him, and she didn't expect him to be like this.
Seeing Gong Ya walking further and further away, Murong Xi's eyes became more and more gloomy.
"Go back and tell me Xun'er's details."
"Master, what do you mean?"
He summoned his most trusted lieutenants and whispered instructions.
"I want to know if he is my adopted son."
The deputy nodded and left, faithfully carrying out his orders.
But Murong Xi had a very strange idea in his mind, which gradually surfaced.
In his lost memory, is there any existence of Xun'er?
Little did he know that because of this small episode, Long Tianyu had begun to doubt other lives that had been rearranged.
Lin Mengya held the little boy in her arms and rode the carriage all the way back to the Gong family.
"My lady, have you made it a habit to pick people up?"
Jun'er, who hurried over, couldn't help but sigh a little after looking at the little thing in her arms.
"Okay, I'll explain to you later. Go and ask your sister Bai Su to come over and ask her to bring over the frostbite ointment and wound medicine that I prepared earlier. Also, go and tell the kitchen to steam a rock sugar pear. Remember,
As long as the soup is simmering, nothing else is needed."
"good."
I carried the child back to my room. During the whole process, the child seemed to have no reaction.
However, he no longer resisted her approach and allowed her to take off her clothes.
Fortunately, the child only had serious frostbite on his hands and feet. Apart from being a little dirty, there were no other scars on his body.
After Lin Mengya washed him clean and carefully applied frostbite medicine to him, she looked up and saw that the child had actually fallen asleep.
Quietly, he covered the child with a quilt, then turned around and took Jun'er and Bai Su to the front yard.
