Chapter Ninety-Six
I couldn't think of who it was for a while, but I forgot to give up my position, so I looked at the woman who was also looking at her suspiciously. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Xie Bai's slightly cold eyes, and the hedge's head was sober, but he looked directly at Xie Bai without fear and said, "Why is Miss Wei here?"
The tone was also full of displeasure.
At this moment, Fu Jiayue in the house also faintly felt that something was wrong outside the house, and when she walked out of the house, she saw the three people who were deadlocked at the door, and she was also stunned: "Wei Qitong?"
Instead, Wei Qitong smiled generously at her: "Sister Jiayue, long time no see." β
How could she be here?
After a long time of response, Wei Qitong's original smile was a little stiff, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Before Fu Jiayue could think of responding, Xie Bai took the lead in explaining: "Today, my mother invited her to come to the house for dinner, I wanted to come to the house to get something, she ......"
In his eyes, in addition to the indifference he has always had, the hedge did not see a trace of guilt, and at the moment, the more he couldn't hide his anger on his face, he directly interrupted his words and said: "Master Pony, this is the bedroom of the princess and you, it's really inappropriate to bring such an outsider, right?"
"Hedges!"
"Princessβ"
Fu Jiayue said with a smile: "Since my mother invited me to be a guest, if you want to get something, hurry up, so as not to make your mother wait for a long time." β
At that moment, he didn't care what the situation of these three people was, but turned around and walked into the house.
When his eyes fell on the dinner table, he ordered the maid beside him, "Take these down." β
"Princess!" the hedge's voice couldn't help but be a little louder.
Fu Jiayue didn't seem to hear it, and when the dinner table was cleaned up, she sat down.
At this time, Xie Bai also came out of the inner room after taking his things.
Seeing that Fu Jiayue took the book handed by the maid and looked at it, and didn't pay attention to what he meant, Xie Bai's eyes flashed with anxiety without a trace, and he pursed his lips as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only spit out one sentence: "Wait for me, I have something to say to you later." β
Fu Jiayue didn't look up: "I'm a little tired tonight, I'm afraid I have to go to bed earlier." I'll talk about it tomorrow morning. β
There was no anger in his tone, no displeasure, just less indifference and detachment than he saw in her eyes.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward.
You don't say anything, she reads by herself, and she is so deadlocked.
Wei Qitong first broke the embarrassment with an apologetic face and said: "Originally, the third brother asked me to wait outside first, but I said that I wanted to come in to meet Jiayue's sister so I came in with the third brother, sister, don't mind." β
As soon as he finished speaking, the hedge immediately retorted coldly: "I have been married to the horse master for more than a month, and I will not have any suspicions in my heart for the sake of an outsider." β
"Iβ"
"Hedges!"
"If it drags on any longer, my mother should have called someone to urge, and I don't know how much I resented the woman, and I even wanted to interfere with my husband's meeting with the woman on weekdays. It's getting dark, hedge, take a lantern and send it to the two. β
After finishing speaking, Fu Jiayue closed the book, stood up naturally, bypassed Xie Bai who was blocking in front of her, and walked into the inner room.
Unconsciously, Xie Bai's brows furrowed faintly, and he unconsciously wanted to raise his heels, but was stopped by the hedge holding his arm: "The princess is going to rest, so please please." β
His eyes fell on the place where she had left, and his back was no longer visible.
Is she jealous?
The originally tense face couldn't help but hook up a smile at the moment, and the indifference in his eyes was gradually shattered by a little soft light, as if it was glowing with brilliant colors.
Wei Qitong, who had been smiling at all this, looked at the soft waves that he had never seen in Xie Bai's eyes, and his heart faintly seemed to be rubbing with many needles, not very painful but extremely unbearable as if they were bitten by many ants.
The eyes were gradually soaked in a layer of mist.
The hedge looked at his strange expression, and his heart was even more displeased, and when he was about to open his mouth to urge, he saw Xie Bai and immediately turned around and walked towards the door.
didn't call Wei Qitong, who was lying on the side, as if she wasn't the person he brought.
The hedge was faintly annoyed that he had been ignored, but when he turned his head and saw Wei Qitong secretly wiping his eyes, a burst of happiness surged in his heart.
snorted coldly at her, deliberately slowed his steps, and also ignored her and turned his head and strode out of the house.
For a moment, a gust of evening wind blew down the rolled up bamboo curtains, and after a snapping sound, it also extinguished the only two candles.
The room was plunged into darkness.
Under the faint moonlight, only the tips of her hair, which were blown by the breeze, could only be seen with a little silver light, and her eyes were hidden under the fluttering long black eyelashes, and only the ink color could be seen.
In the lady's room.
Xie Bai and his wife were already seated, and when they saw Wei Qitong coming, Mrs. Qitong's originally unhappy face immediately turned into a smile, and she waved her hand and said, "Qitong is here, sit down quickly." β
Wei Qitong bowed slightly towards his wife, and secretly glanced at Xie Bai, seeing that he was just sitting quietly, and did not intend to pay attention to his meaning, and a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and then he sat down at the dinner table obediently.
Mrs. saw the clues since she had long been in it, and reprimanded Xie Bai first: "You too, ask you to go and pick up Qitong, you are good, but you came first." β
"Is there anything else to do with Mother? if ......"
Madame immediately interrupted: "I can't look for you if it's okay?" I have dinner with my own son, but I still have to find a serious reason?"
"The child doesn't dare. β
For a while, Wei Qitong felt a little embarrassed on the square table, and it felt wrong to sit quietly like this, and it was not appropriate to move the chopsticks, after all, everyone did not move.
Mrs. first clipped her with chopsticks and said, "Come, Qitong, eat a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs." β
"Thank you, auntie. β
"Silly boy, what are you doing so politely? β
"Good. β
After finishing speaking, Xie Bai put down his chopsticks first, stood up and said, "I'm full, go back to the room to rest first." β
Seeing that he turned around and was about to leave, the lady hurriedly called, "Eh, how many bites have you just eaten?"
"I've eaten outside before, and I still have a lot of official business to deal with later. β
After speaking, the back has disappeared around the corner.
She specially called someone to tell him that she would have dinner with him and Qitong tonight, but he had eaten?
Who to fool!
Wei Qitong's hand under the table couldn't help but clench the corner of her skirt, and the faint pain in her heart made her unable to hide the sadness on her face no matter what.
Madame reached out and patted the back of her hand, and said, "Qitong, don't pay attention to him, he is such a stinky temper, and he was like this in the past." β
Wei Qitong slowly opened her lips: "I know." β
"What a good boy. Come, let's eat ours, and eat this bowl again. β
"Good. β
β¦β¦
Mrs. is very enthusiastic, although she has not met Wei Qitong many times, but she seems to be very familiar, and she is very good at finding topics.
Wei Qitong also gradually lost her restraint, suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and chatted generously with her wife.
For a while, the two of them had almost eaten, and when the maids cleaned up the dining table, the lady reached out and held Wei Qitong's hand, and praised: "It looks really Peugeot, the more I look at it, the more I like it." When was the last time we met? I remember you were just on my shoulder, and you still had two little clumps of baby fat on your cheeks, which were also nice to tie. β
As he spoke, he looked her up and down with all his approval.
Wei Qitong turned red when she was seen, and said: "It was five years ago, when I came to Fuzhong with my father and mother to thank me. β
Hearing this, Madame couldn't help but be annoyed: "Ouch, look at me, which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned, but it is mentioned here." β
Seeing this, Wei Qitong became worried, and hurriedly comforted: "It's okay. At that time, my mother and I rushed to the capital from other places, but fortunately we met the third brother and were able to escape from the bandits. β
At that time, she had not yet performed the rites of the courtesy, and she did not know martial arts.
If it weren't for Xie Bai's rescue, she would probably have either been a cottage lady now, or would have been sold to a kiln, or she would not have had a chance to grow to this age at all.
Madame patted the back of her hand lightly again, and said with pity: "Pity you at that young age, but you are frightened, aren't you?"
Wei Qitong smiled indifferently: "When I was young, I was timid and had nightmares for a long time. But later, my mother told me that the bandits' den had been exterminated by the third brother, and I was completely relieved. Now, although there are still some hidden worries in my heart, I can't help but feel a little relieved every time I see the third brother. β
Speaking of this, his face couldn't help but turn red.
"It's okay. If this is the root of the disease, it is not forgivable to behead all these bandits. β
Wei Qitong just stared at the tip of his nose and nodded silently.
Madame asked again: "You are not too young, you look good, and your family background is good, the people who have proposed marriage over the years should have stepped through the threshold of your family, right?"
Auntie teased. Over the years, my mother has indeed proposed it to me from time to time, but I have always had someone in my heart and I am unwilling to agree. β
Hearing this, Madame was also completely relieved.
She was the most incomprehensible to her son, and she thought that he would not marry a princess the least, but in the end he actually married.
If you marry, you will marry, she is not disdainful of this princess, after all, she is a little stubborn, and after becoming a mother, she will definitely change.
However, the relationship between them is not as simple as it seems.
She was old and didn't want to bother with these trivial matters.
After all, she could have hugged her grandson earlier, and while enjoying some family fun, the most important thing was to suppress Xie Bai's heart.
Xie Bai's intervention in court affairs in recent years has almost increased day by day, and she faintly feels bad.
Although she also hopes that her children will make a difference, life safety must come first.
If she can focus more on her family, she can also put down her snacks.
"Aunt doesn't like to go around the bend, and she hasn't been out of the door all these years, and she doesn't know what is going on outside, the person in your heart is the third child, right?"
Wei Qitong was stunned for a moment, although she knew that Mrs. was trying to make a reason out of her mouth just now, but she didn't want to ask so directly.
After a pause, Wei Qitong immediately said, "En." After being rescued by the third brother on that day, I only allowed the third brother in my heart, and I made up my mind at that time that only the third brother would not marry in this life. β
The voice became quieter and quieter, and the last word of marriage could almost only be heard by itself.
Madame smiled: "This is not married into the Xie Mansion yet, and now there is only room for the third person in my heart?
"Auntieβ"
With a coquettish sound, Wei Qitong lowered her eyes again, and her cheeks were so hot that people like her usual cheerfulness couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Madame took a sip of the tea handed over by the maid and said, "I'm not an old antique, I've been young, and I also know and understand the little thoughts in your young people's hearts." I don't have too many requirements for my daughter-in-law, but I'm old and want to hug my grandson and enjoy some family fun. β
Wei Qitong was puzzled: "Sister Jiayue is ......"
Madame interrupted her suddenly: "You don't have to worry too much about the affairs between the two of them, I can't figure out the third child's thoughts, and whether you can grasp his heart or not can only depend on yourself." How about you stay in Xie Mansion these days? I will personally visit you in Xie Mansion tomorrow and say that I will leave you to stay in Xie Mansion for a few days. β
There were a few hints of expectation in his heart, Wei Qitong pursed his lips and responded, "Okay."
"I have ordered someone to clean up the guest room for you, if you recognize the bed, I will order someone to go to your house later to pick up some important things that you use on weekdays. β
Wei Qitong shook his head: "Auntie, don't bother, I don't recognize the bed." β
"That's fine. I've just finished dinner now, so why don't you go to the house with me? β
"Good. β
Let's say that Fu Jiayue lay on the bed after bathing and changing clothes.
Thinking that the meal he had worked so hard to make today was thrown away like that, and Wei Qitong who he saw unexpectedly, his heart was like being entangled in a messy rope, and he couldn't get rid of it for a long time, so he casually put on a cloak and went out to breathe.
The hedge knew that she was in a bad mood today, so she always served.
The most admirable place in Xie Mansion is the water pavilion not far from the main courtyard.
deliberately avoided hanging lanterns, and only looked at the natural moonlight, which added a bit of leisurely and comfortable feeling.
A swing in the middle is Fu Jiayue these days to let people set up, although there is already one in the courtyard, but the scenery in the middle is far less than this, her favorite is to eat a small snack, and then be swayed feeling.
Suddenly, it is like being in a fairyland, and all the clutter seems to be swept away.
However, it is the most taboo to eat desserts later, not only can not absorb much nutrients, but also easy to gain weight.
The taboo I didn't have when I was a child has passed the rite of time, so I have to pay special attention to it.
Fu Jiayue swayed her feet, holding on to the swing rope, and swayed gently.
The hem of the garment swayed slightly in the evening breeze, and the satin gold edge reflected the golden light in the moonlight, as if beating.
The more night it gets, the chillier it gets.
Another gust of cold wind blew, and the hedge couldn't help but shiver, rubbed his little hands, and then leaned closer to Fu Jiayue and said, "Princess, are you cold? Why don't I go get a hand warmer?" )
