“Mom! When Xuan’er grows up, he will definitely be filial to you,” Di Xuan said seriously.

Liu Sisi didn’t speak, she just stroked his head and smiled!

No matter what the future holds, it is already extraordinary for Di Xuan to express such a view at this moment, as she is not their birth mother after all.

The snow seemed to be getting heavier.

“Miss from the Liu Family, this old man has a piece of linen here. You can wear it for now to block the wind.”

The old man driving the cart passed a piece of linen, which had obviously been used for many years. Liu Sisi didn’t care for the details, she hurriedly expressed her gratitude, lifted the cloth, and shielded herself from the biting cold wind.

“Thank you, Uncle Wang. The wind and rain seem to be getting worse!” Liu Sisi shouted.

The wind and snow constantly blew into her mouth, making it difficult to bear.

“Don’t mention it! A short distance ahead, we will turn around a mountain bay, and the other side is sheltered from the wind. It will feel much warmer there—” Old Wang yelled with effort.

Indeed, after turning around the mountain bay, the freezing wind suddenly became much weaker. Although the sleet in the sky continued to dance, it was not as unbearable as before.

“YingEr, are you very cold?”

Liu Sisi couldn’t help but ask, she had to make sure the child wasn’t getting too cold.

YingEr instinctively burrowed into Liu Sisi’s arms, curling up tightly in the embrace of Di Xuan and Sisi: “Mom, it’s not cold in your arms.”

They finally reached the foot of the mountain, and Liu Sisi took out twice the usual amount of copper coins and handed them to Old Wang.

“Uncle Wang, thank you for coming to pick me up today despite the cold. Please take this money and go home quickly. It looks like the snow is getting worse.”

Old Wang took the copper coins, and laughed happily!

“Alright! I won’t decline the extra coins, I can use them to buy a pot of wine to drink when I get home. You should go home early, too.”

With that said, he happily drove the cart away.

“Let’s go!”

The ground was slippery from the rain and snow. Liu Sisi carried YingEr on her back while holding Xuan’er’s hand, taking deep steps and shallow steps on the road. Under the cold, she felt numb from her thighs down, and her nose and hands were sore from the cold. It was genuinely uncomfortable.

“Why are you back so late? Didn’t you see it was snowing and know to come back earlier?”

A questioning voice rang out, and Liu Sisi’s heart was filled with joy. Then, YingEr was taken from her back by the person who had approached.

Di Yelei directly lifted Di Xuan and held YingEr: “Let’s go! The snow is getting heavier. Be careful not to catch a cold. Once we get home, I have a big surprise for you!” After he said this, he even tried to support her.

Liu Sisi pushed his hand away: “I-I’m fine! What’s the surprise? Hurry up and take the two children home first!”

Having said that, she was now feeling quite warm from running so hard.

When they finally arrived home, Di Yelei quickly closed the main entrance.

As soon as they walked through the main entrance, Liu Sisi immediately noticed something different in the courtyard.

In the stable within the courtyard, two tall horses were tied up: one jujube red and the other dark brown. As if sensing strangers approaching, both horses simultaneously raised their heads and snorted.

“What’s going on here?” Liu Sisi was dumbfounded.

She had just gone out for a while, and when she returned, there were two more horses. Could this be the surprise Ye Lei mentioned?

“How about it? Do you like it? These are some fine horses. Come on, let’s go inside, it’s too cold out here.” Di Yelei spoke as he went straight into the house.

Liu Sisi also quickly followed: “Ye Lei, didn’t you say that constables are assigned a horse? Why are there two?”

“You’ll know when you come inside.” Di Yelei had a mysteriously secretive face.

“Why are you being so mysterious about this…”

Liu Sisi’s words were cut short by the person emerging from the house! She immediately took a sharp breath and froze on the spot.

It wasn’t just anyone who came out of the house, but the one with a pair of starry eyes, Zuo Xingyu!

With a frown on his face, Zuo Xingyu walked out and was immediately greeted by Di Yelei: “Brother Zuo, why did you come out? It’s cold outside, come in quickly, it’s warmer inside!”

As he spoke, he placed the two children on the ground and excitedly introduced Liu Sisi: “Sisi! This is Constable Zuo! You should remember him, right? He was the one who rushed to capture Sun Ergou overnight to help clear my name! How about it? Are you surprised and happy?”

Liu Sisi was astonished and unable to close her mouth! Surprised, yes, but not necessarily happy!

That hateful Di Yelei! Obviously, something was amiss with Zuo Xingyu, but he always spent time with him! What’s the meaning of this? Is he deliberately going against her?

Zuo Xingyu’s sharp eyes swept over, and his usually expressionless face met Liu Sisi’s gaze. A cold light quickly flashed in his eyes, stinging Liu Sisi’s eyes and causing a chill to rise from her tailbone and rapidly spread throughout her body.

Zuo Xingyu’s hawk-like eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently gestured towards Liu Sisi: “Greetings, Madam.”

Liu Sisi dodged subconsciously, barely avoiding the greeting!

Her pale face was devoid of any color, and her mouth moved a few times, but she couldn’t speak a word.

“Look at you! Sisi is so happy she can’t even speak!” Di Yelei quickly greeted the two.

“Hello, Uncle Zuo.”

Di Xuan and Di Ying were the sensible ones, the two children politely greeted.

“Hello.” Zuo Xingyu’s reply was as concise as ever.

“Sisi, don’t just stand there, hurry back to the room and change clothes. And Xuan’er and Ying’er, are you two cold? Do you want Dad to make you a bowl of ginger soup? Brother Zuo! Hurry inside, it’s cold outside, tonight we’ll have a candlelight night talk, no return without getting drunk!” Di Yelei loudly called everyone, and then proceeded to stride into the kitchen first.

“Little sister, you should also hurry back to the room and change clothes.” Di Xuan urged Di Ying.

“Alright!” Ying’er sweetly replied.

Waiting until everyone left, only the still unresponsive Liu Sisi and Zuo Xingyu opposite remained.

Zuo Xingyu’s starry eyes were unusually deep and dark, giving her a deep glance before turning to walk away.

“Wait! Why…why are you doing this?”

Liu Sisi finally found her tongue that had been stolen by a cat and quickly called out to Zuo Xingyu.

“What?” He looked back in surprise.

“What do you mean by doing this? I’m asking you why are you doing this?” Liu Sisi asked impatiently.

“No reason, I just feel like it.” Zuo Xingyu’s answer was straightforward.

Liu Sisi was left speechless and suffocating, unable to continue the conversation. The next moment, she saw Zuo Xingyu approaching her, which startled her!

“You, you…what do you want?” She subconsciously clenched her collar.

“Excuse me, Madam, can you please move aside?”

A mocking color flashed in the man’s eyes. Although it was fleeting, Liu Sisi caught it accurately! Perhaps it should be said that he deliberately let her discover it.
