Chapter 213: The Mangwu Courtyard
“…… It's okay, I'm not tired, you can go play by yourself. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Rouge really didn't want to continue to entangle with her anymore, so he hurriedly smiled as he walked: "After I have placed these tea sets, I will come to play with you again." ”
Jiaoli looked at her unusual appearance with doubts, and the words that she wanted to ask when she opened her mouth had already reached her throat, but somehow, she swallowed it after all.
When Qi Nian took Ah Yao to Hua Yujing's Manwu Courtyard slowly, she was standing far away outside the courtyard, and when she raised her eyes, she saw that the door of the courtyard was tightly closed, and she didn't hesitate to send Ah Yao to knock on the door.
Speaking of which, this is also what it should be, in addition to entering the palace to go to the banquet together, and then at the family banquet in Washington, Qi Nian has seen this fourth lady a few times, and the friendship that goes deeper is no more.
If this matter was not carefully arranged by Mrs. Hua today, if she didn't come, I was afraid that she would be disappointed, otherwise Qi Nian would definitely ignore such an innocuous trivial matter.
She stood quietly in front of this door, and after watching A-Yao step forward and knock on the door a few times without the slightest response, she lowered her head and said to herself, "It's really strange that the fourth sister is not at home at this time......
Then she looked up and said to Ah Yao: "Since the fourth sister is not here, then let's go back first." ”
Ah Yao couldn't help but be stunned, thinking to herself how Miss said this, it seemed to be very different from our plan.
She opened her mouth to say something, but a few sneaky figures flashed in the corners of her eyes, and she saw Qi Nian's dark and moist eyes full of playful light, and suddenly her heart was clear.
She silently retreated and returned to Qi Nian's side, and the master and servant turned around and were about to leave.
Sure enough, just as they had only taken two steps, they heard a rush of footsteps behind them, and then someone called out from behind, "Miss Seven! Miss Seven......
Listening to this voice, it is really quite familiar, and I think it must be an acquaintance I saw a few days ago.
Qi Nian knew it in his heart, but there was still a slightly surprised look on his face, he slowly turned around, looked at the visitor and said in surprise: "Are you...... Mother Zhou?"
That Zhou's mother inherited this surname, and naturally she was also the person Mrs. Hua had brought from the Rongguo Mansion to marry.
In the past, she was also the same identity as Hua Yurong's biological mother, and she was Mrs. Hua's dowry girl more than 20 years ago, but this week's mother is also quite upright, with fine skin and white flesh and plump body, but she doesn't have such a seductive and mesmerizing beauty, so she can't do such a thing as being a concubine and being favored.
Of course, it is precisely because her appearance is only decent, but it also preserves her stability, although she has never enjoyed any glory and wealth, but it can be regarded as worry-free and not very troublesome.
After all, the person who used to have the same identity as her, but because of that beautiful and moon-like appearance, got Mrs. Hua's blue eyes, is now a pair of white bones, buried deep in the ground.
Really, what could be more important than being alive?
This week's mother is now the only person who has served by her side since she was a child, except for Mama Zhou, who has been by her side since she was a child, and she is naturally deeply trusted by her, and she is also very decent in Tianxiang Courtyard.
Now that Mrs. Hua sent her to lay a trap for Qi Nian, if she wants to come to this trap, it is also carefully arranged very firmly.
When she first entered Washington, because Mrs. Hua only mistook Qi Nian for Qi Shu, she took care of her in every way, and she often went in and out of Tianxiang Courtyard at that time, but she had a good impression of Mrs. Hua's mother.
"Miss Seven is well. Mother Zhou was very attentive and took the two little girls to read the blessing together, and then said with a smile: "Just because of the fourth lady's trouble early in the morning, Mrs. remembered it very much, so she asked me to come and take a look." I just looked at Miss Seven as if she wanted to go in, why did she leave before she even entered the door?"
Qi Nian also smiled slightly, and said quite decently: "I originally had the same mind as Mother Zhou, and I wanted to come to see the fourth sister." It's just that when I got up in the morning, I seemed to hear in a trance, saying that the second aunt seemed to have some misunderstandings about me, but it seemed that I had a lot of separation from the fourth sister. Yes, and the closer the sisters become, the more cautious they become. Mother Zhou, look, there seems to be no voice in the courtyard of the fourth sister, and the door is closed tightly, so I just said that I came at the wrong time, and I happened to catch up with my sister who was not in the courtyard. ”
How could my mother not know what murderous intentions were hidden in the Manwu Courtyard at this time, although she chuckled in her heart, she still smiled without leaking a drop on her face, and only took two steps forward, "Miss Seven doesn't know, because Miss Fourth made a fuss this morning, it really made our Prime Minister ashamed." Yes, Madame was telling her to think about it behind closed doors, and how dare she open the door of the courtyard as usual. But we can go in and pay a visit, and I'm sorry to deal with my wife. ”
She said these words with a smile on her face, and she also raised her eyes to look at Qi Nian, "Miss Seven, you can go in with me, I heard that Miss Fourth is not lightly injured." ”
The words have been said for this part, and there is no reason not to go to Qi Nian.
Yes, she just smiled and agreed.
Maybe she didn't want to be too crowded, or maybe her mother was too confident in herself this week, but before entering the door, she put the two little girls she was carrying at the door and didn't bring them in.
Qi Nian smiled meaningfully, but she didn't say anything, but when she stepped forward and knocked on the door in person, she took the lead in stepping into this mangrove courtyard.
Zhou's mother hurriedly followed.
Here, as I guessed when I was outside, it was so silent that I didn't even see half a figure.
Even the little girl who opened the door just out of nowhere was gone, as if this small courtyard was empty at this time.
Qi Nian didn't take a few more steps inside, raised his eyes and looked around for a moment, then turned his head to look at Zhou's mother behind him with inquiring eyes.
"What's the matter, Miss Seven?" Mother Zhou's expression at this time has completely changed, her face that should have been flattering and smiling has been stained with a bit of gloomy appearance at this time, and even the slightly old voice is also a little proud, "Let's go in first, Miss Fourth is waiting for you inside." ”
Qi Nian looked at her fair face, which was not very old, but smiled slightly, turned around and walked towards the back room.
As soon as she reached the door, she stopped without warning.
Mother Zhou's smile couldn't be contained, so it froze on her face.
