Chapter 1242

Shi Anxia put down the brush, slowly stood up, walked to the table and sat down, "Little Red Magpie, stop busying yourself, come and talk to me."

"Okay." Hong Que responded, and ran to close the window, leaving a gap, and then walked over to stand in front of Shi Anxia, ​​"It's autumn now, and it will be cold at night. Madam, you can't open the window anymore."

Shi Anxia smiled and took her hand, looking at her carefully, "That's great, our little housekeeper Hongque is back to manage the household again."

When Hong Que heard this, her eyes turned red. "Madam, please don't abandon me. I will follow you for the rest of my life."

Shi Anxia pulled her to sit down, took a cup herself, and poured her some tea. "Drink some tea with me and talk."

Hong Que lowered her head and said, "I don't want to drink tea. I will just reply to Madam's question."

Shi Anxia lifted the little girl's chin with her hand and said, "Oh, you've only been away for a few days, and you've become distant with me?"

When Hong Que heard this, tears started to fall. She knelt down in front of her master and leaned her face on his legs, "I miss you, Madam!"

Shi Anxia's heart was almost melted by the little red magpie's crying, "Alright, alright, get up quickly. You didn't learn anything from Hongyan, but you learned this habit of crying."

She half coaxed and half lifted Hong Que up, and finally got her to sit on the round stool again. "Tell me, have your brothers and sisters been good to you these days? Have they bullied you?"

"My brothers and sisters are all good to me," Hong Que said as she shed tears again, "but I still miss you, Madam. I want to follow you forever."

Shi Anxia picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and stuffed it into Hongque's mouth. "You are so sweet, so I'll give you a piece as a reward."

Hong Que wiped her tears and chewed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in small bites. She was still sobbing after swallowing it. "I didn't say I miss you just to please you. I really miss you and can't sleep at night."

Shi Anxia looked at Hong Que tenderly and patted the back of her hand gently, "Okay, I believe you. After meeting your brother and sister, do you have any plans? Are they going to take you back to see your father and mother?"

Hong Que was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then nodded, "Yes, my brother and sister said they would take me back to the tribe to see my father and mother. They also said that Booth was dead, so there was nothing to be afraid of." She raised her head and asked, "Why are they so afraid of the second prince of Wan Kingdom?"

Shi Anxia hesitated for a moment and did not want to tell her the truth about the current situation of the tribe and her sister's experience. Her little red magpie did not need to worry so much, and just needed to experience the joy of family reunion.

She picked up the teacup, sniffed the rising tea fragrance, and said vaguely, "Because Wan is so powerful, Beiyi was afraid of Wan before, but now it is not. Your tribe doesn't have to be afraid either. In fact, you also want to go back to the tribe to take a look, right?"

Hong Que lowered her head. "Since I found out that my parents are not my real parents, to be honest, I am really happy. Of course, I want to go back to the tribe to see them. I heard that my mother almost cried her eyes out. But..." She raised her head, her eyelashes stained with crystal tears. "I don't want to leave Madam, and I'm even more afraid that Madam won't want me anymore."

Shi Anxia reached out and tidied her black hair. "How about I accompany you back to the tribe in the spring of next year? There are still many things to do and the young master is even busier. Look, he hasn't returned home yet. When we are done with the work, we will accompany you and bring you back, okay?"

Hong Que was stunned and at a loss, her eyes wide open, "Really? Madam, are you willing to accompany me back to the tribe?"

Shi Anxia nodded. "Before that, you can learn to change your address and stop calling yourself a slave. You are the little princess of the Vina tribe. Besides, I have torn up your indenture, and the government has no record of you. Little Red Magpie, you are no longer a slave."

Hong Que choked up and held Madam's hand. "No, no matter who Hong Que is, I am only Madam's little Hong Que. Hong Que is willing to be Madam's slave for life."

Shi Anxia suppressed her tears and said, "I can't bear to leave you. From now on, you guys are all my sisters, not slaves..."
