Cowardly Stepmother Dressed As the Hero

Chapter 16



Cao Mi was stunned for a moment, and immediately wanted to refuse, and then immediately realized that he had no right to refuse.

Speaking of which, she also forgot, intentionally or unintentionally, that the original yard was actually the residence of the King of Bei’an and his wife. More than a year ago, when Qi You hadn’t gone out to suppress the rebellion, he lived there with the original body.

It was because he had been away for more than a year, and after he came back, he had been living in the front yard because of his busy affairs, which made Cao Mi ignore this matter.

Thinking of this, she almost stumbled in a trance.

Qi You quickly turned around to support her, and at the end he said thoughtfully, “The road is slippery in the snowy days, be careful. Hmm… Forget it, I’ll help you go.”

The young King of Bei’an had a gentle expression, and with the pale white moonlight of a winter night, his aggression was reduced to a minimum. But when he looked at him like this, Cao Mi felt that he was out of breath.

Returning to the courtyard in a trance, Cao Mi didn’t recover until Qi You handed over the robe to Chunlin and turned to take a bath in the east wing.

She frantically tugged at the tablecloth beside her.

She really thought about inheriting everything that the original body had, but this should not include helping the original body to fulfill the obligations of husband and wife! ! !

Seeing that she was not in the right mind, Dong Li stepped forward and asked worriedly, “Madam…what’s the matter with you?”

“Dongli!” Cao Mi suddenly remembered something, and commanded like he was grabbing the last straw: “You, you go to Jingming Courtyard and hug Ruier… No, not only Jingming Courtyard, but also Honghu Courtyard, Anyway, just bring all three children to me!”

Dong Li froze in place.

She looked at the sky outside, “Madam…now it’s…”

“I know.” After a while, Cao Mi, who suddenly found out that this method was feasible, had regained his composure.

She smiled, “I have an idea, let’s go. By the way, remember to put on a few more pieces for them before going out. It’s cold on the road.”

Hearing what Cao Mi said, Dong Li naturally stopped persuading him, nodded his head and proceeded to make arrangements.

Cao Mi sat in the hall and waited, feeling a little anxious in his heart. It happened that Dongli and Taozi had split up to take care of the children, so she grabbed Chunlin who was still waiting by the door to chat, trying to divert her attention.

“Chunlin, how is the courtyard recently? The new servants, haven’t they caused any trouble?”

Chunlin nodded, “Mrs. Hui, everything is fine. The newcomer is indeed not as skilled as the old man, and he is already teaching him slowly.”

Her figure looked a little thin under the lamp, and Cao Mi suddenly felt a little guilty.

Even though Chunlin had a lot of seniority in the palace, in fact, she was just a little girl under twenty. It is such a girl who has not finished college in modern times. In the case of her incompetence, she did not join forces with Xia Lin, and she just tried her best to manage the palace properly.

She exhaled a turbid breath, “Hey, Xia Lin happened to supervise the embroidery workshop for me at this juncture, you are the only one left in the yard, you have to watch everything, but it’s hard for you. .”

Chunlin shook his head, “Madam’s words are serious, it’s what the maid should do.”

“Then you can’t toss yourself like this.” Cao Mi smiled, “Hey, it doesn’t seem like you’re on duty tonight? Don’t stand here, go back and rest.”

Chunlin replied respectfully: “Dongli and Taozi are not there, there is no one in the room, the servant should stay here and wait.”

“The place where the three children live is not far away, count the time, it’s almost time to come back.” Cao Mi propped his chin, “Besides, there are a few rough maids in the hall, I have something to do for them. You spent the night only yesterday, and you need to rest early today.”

“It is Chunlin’s duty to serve the prince and princess.” Chunlin still insisted, “The maid has good energy, so don’t worry madam.”

She lowered her head, Cao Mi couldn’t see her expression clearly, but this didn’t prevent Cao Mi from feeling a little strange.

Chunlin has a cold temperament, and it seems that he has never been so diligent in the past…

But before she could think about it, outside the door, just after taking a shower, Qi You, who was dressed in everyday clothes, walked in.

Chun Lin took a dry towel next to him and wanted to go forward to serve. But Qi You raised his hand towards her, motioned her to step back, and took the towel to wipe off the water stains on her shoulders.

After wiping, he instructed: “You all go down first.”

Everyone in the hall saluted and left one after another. Chun Lin walked at the end and closed the door directly.

Cao Mi’s back froze, and he froze on the chair.

Qi You didn’t seem to notice, he stepped forward and took Cao Mi’s hand.

“It’s so cold?” He turned to look at the charcoal stove in the living room, a little puzzled, and then relieved, “Let’s go, go back to the bedroom, the quilt should be warm inside.”

He said the last sentence very lightly, adding some ambiguous meaning for nothing.

Cao Mi was dazzled by the beauty in front of him.

In such a scene where beautiful women invite each other in a modern short video, she can hold her breath while smashing the three words “I can” in front of Qi You’s face. But when she really faced it, she wanted to go back to the chicken coop and be a quiet quail.

But the reality didn’t give her a chance to choose. She could only follow Qi You back to the room while shouting the names of the three children in her heart.

In fact, she still had fantasies in her heart, maybe Qi You just wanted to sleep. It is common for couples to sleep together under the quilt, and the frequency is even far greater than that of sleeping under the quilt.

But soon, her last illusions were also shattered.

Qi You took her to the bed and put his hands on both sides of her body, “You seem to be very nervous?”

Cao Mi pulled out a stiff smile, “I…concubine, concubine no, no.”

Qi You chuckled, “So, what are you nervous about?”

He leaned down slightly, breathing lightly on Cao Mi’s face.

Cao Mi resisted the urge to retreat, “King, Lord…”

Before he could finish speaking, there was a sudden squeak of the door being pushed open from outside.

Before the twins arrive, the sound arrives first.

“Father, mother, here we come!” This was the cry of the second child, Qi An.

“Come on!” This is the resounding voice.

Cao Mi’s eyes flashed with hope, only to feel that the frozen body had come to life.

She nimbly got out of Qi You’s arms and rushed out, explaining to the stunned Qi You, “Aiya, the lord hasn’t returned to the house for a long time, so the three children must miss you!”

She opened the door of the bedroom, took the twins from Chen’s arms, and motioned for Qi Rui to follow.

Back in front of Qi You, while speeding up her hands and feet to remove her robe and shoes for the child, she said to Qi You, “My lord, for the sake of the child missing his father, let’s sleep with them tonight!”

Qi An had kicked off her shoes and rolled onto the bed to have fun. Qi You wanted to object and also consider the children’s bodies.

In fact, Cao Mi felt guilty too. While helping Qi Ran take off her shoes, she touched Qi Rui’s face and asked, “Is it frozen?”

Qi Rui shook his head.

Qi Ran was wrapped into the appearance of a fat dumpling, and Cao Mi solved it several layers before seeing the real “sinking”. He huddled in Cao Mi’s arms, and replied glutinously, “It’s not freezing, the moon outside is so big and big, it’s bigger than the dumplings I ate for dinner.”

Cao Mi was amused by this fat dumpling, and the tension between the confrontation with Qi You had completely dissipated.

She secretly paid attention to the situation on Qi You’s side.

The second child, Qi An, was playing with his father’s long hair. Qi You was talking to him when he saw Cao Mi glance over from the corner of his eye, and looked back lightly.

Can’t see any emotion.

Cao Mi swallowed and put Qi Ran on the bed, watching him climb into Qi You’s arms.

Qi Rui had already taken off his cloak. He looked at the twins on the bed and asked, “Are we all sleeping here tonight?”

Cao Mi nodded at him and coaxed: “Well… your father finally came back, will Ruier accompany him?”

“Big Brother” Qi Rui nodded sensible, “Okay.”

Cao Mi went into the innermost part of the bed and placed the three children in the middle. Qi You sat on the edge of the bed and looked down at them. The bed of Bei’an Wang and his wife was very spacious, and the family of five didn’t feel crowded even when they slept on it.

“Dad, you’ve been away for so long, are you going to beat the bad guys?” Qi An asked.

Qi You nodded, “Well, the Yuzhou rebellion, I’ll exterminate the rebels.”

“Daddy is amazing!” The youngest Qi Ran laughed.

“What are you going to do to suppress the rebellion?” Qi Rui asked.

Qi You smiled and talked about the experience of the past year in a warm voice.

He omitted the **** content and only picked some interesting stories, but he still couldn’t be selected as a children’s bedtime book. Fortunately, the three children hadn’t been raised by Cao Mi to make their appetites, and they all listened quietly with respect, and then slowly fell asleep.

Cao Mi himself was groggy. It was because Qi You’s deliberately lowered tone was too gentle and mellow, and the comforting effect was much higher than that of his boring marching stories.

Just when she was about to fall asleep, Qi You suddenly stopped talking and sneered instead.

She was startled and instinctively looked at Qi You.

The handsome King of Bei’an puffed out the soft flesh on his cheeks, but after all, he did nothing but mouthed her silently.

“Go to sleep.”

Day two.

When Cao Mi woke up, he found that Qi An’s feet were on his face.

She moved her feet away, only to see the culprit who woke her up.

Xiao Pangdun was hanging on Qi You’s arm, not fully awake yet, but he muttered aggrievedly: “Father, where are you going?”

Qi You was a little helpless, but he didn’t dare to get rid of him, “I’m going to the martial arts field.”

He noticed that Cao Mi was awake, and suddenly glared at her angrily, and then persuaded Qi Ran, “It’s still early, you guys sleep a little longer.”

Cao Mi was a little puzzled, and he didn’t know how he recruited him in the early morning.

On the other side, Qi Ran nodded, “Martial field…”

As he spoke, he gently loosened his arm, but when it was halfway loose, he suddenly woke up, and turned to hold it tighter, loudly saying, “I’m going too! I’m going too!”

He was more than excited, shouting and kicking Qi Rui and Qi An who had not woken up with his short legs.

Only then did Cao Mi react, but he couldn’t save it in time.

Half an hour later, the five members of King Bei’an’s family appeared on the martial arts field. Cao Mi was forced to stay on the sidelines with his three children, waiting to admire the heroic appearance of King Bei’an practicing martial arts.
