Chapter 1458

She always pretends to have nothing to do, but midnight knows that no matter who, in the face of their own life, how can always be so calm. She's just acting.

……

The next day.

As soon as the gate of the courtyard was opened at midnight, a group of people gathered outside. He frowned and looked at the man in front of the door. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"You... Moved in yesterday?"

Asked a woman.

Midnight nodded and did not reply.

"We are next door. Your yard has been empty for a long time, and the people who used to live here have moved out. Yesterday, we saw a carriage stop, so we came to see the excitement. This is a gift for you

The woman said and handed the basket full of fresh fruits and vegetables to midnight. Midnight subconsciously took it.

Orange is still cooking in the room. When she hears the noise at the door, she wipes her hands and goes out of the house. There are several women standing outside. She is stunned. Then she walks with a smile.

"You live in the West Lane, too?"

Asked orange. Ladies, look at me, I look at you and nod.

"I didn't prepare anything when I first met. I brought these things from my hometown. I'll give them a gift. When I meet later, I'll take care of each other."

Orange said, and took out some idle jewelry from her arms. Midnight narrowed his eyes, he could see that orange had been ready for a long time. The group of women took the jewelry, gave thanks with a smile on their face, and scattered in a crowd.

"You... Why do you prepare gifts for others?"

Midnight does not understand, asked.

"When we are new here, we should say hello to our neighbors. I almost forgot. Fortunately, they came to our house by themselves. This is common sense. Don't tell me, you don't understand."

Orange replied with a smile.

"I've lived in the military camp since I was a child. I'm not very clear about what I said to you."

Midnight replied honestly.

Orange blinked, as if thinking of something, looking back at him: "what about your parents?"

"Two months after I entered the military camp, my mother died, and my brother didn't know where he was going." When midnight answered, there was no pain in his face, as if it was what he said. After a long time, he didn't care.

Orange licked the corner of her mouth. For a moment, she didn't know what to comfort. She went back to the kitchen and sat in front of the stove to add fire. Midnight followed her.

"And your father?"

Asked orange.

"Many years ago, because of joining the army, I died in the battlefield." Midnight road.

Orange's hand trembled slightly. She had never heard of these things from anyone. For a moment, she didn't know how to comfort midnight. She just said, "let's have dinner and go to see your mother. Where's your mother's grave?"

"It's on the mountain near the city," midnight said, "but you'd better not walk now. If you want to offer incense, I'll give it to your mother."

"It's no good. I'll go with you. In other people's eyes, I'm already your wife. The empress delivered me to you and directly betrothed me to you. As a result, I'm also your wife. I should go to see your mother."

Orange said seriously.

Midnight eyes flashed a touch of joy, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looking at Orange: "you have promised to marry me?"

"What are you talking about? It's just the order of the empress. I'm just... Just doing things according to the order of the empress! Don't think about it

She gave him a look and warned.

Midnight smell speech, scratch head, no more words.
