I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, but there was still a faint expression on my face: "Since she didn't say anything, then why do you think I hurt her?"

She sneered, "Do you need to talk about it?"

“……”

"I have eyes, I can see!"

"Oh, what do you see?"

"What did I see? I saw that my sister was injured, I saw that she was so wronged and still defending you, and I saw Yuan Xiu lying to me in order to protect you!"

I smiled faintly and said, "That's funny. Your sister's injury is her own business, and since both of them have said that it has nothing to do with me, it naturally has nothing to do with me. Why don't you believe a word when your closest relatives speak? I don't understand this!"

"Do you still want to quibble?" she glared at me viciously: "Yan Qingqing, don't think that you have had a relationship with Yuan Xiu, you can always use this to pinch him, you are just a cousin, let you go back to Jinling Mansion, my sister is already aggrieved enough, you actually dare to make Yin behind her back! Yuan Xiu doesn't know anyone, my sister can only swallow her anger in order not to hurt his heart, do you think you can be lawless here?!"

I said helplessly: "So, no matter what your sister and brother-in-law say, you think that I hurt your sister?"

She gritted her teeth and said, "I said, I have eyes, I can see!"

"And which eye are you that saw me hurt your sister? the one on the left, or the one on the right?"

She was stunned by me, but immediately said, "Do you think I don't know what's going on when I'm not there?" I'm talking about eyes not on the face, but on the heart!"

"Oh, heart's eye," I nodded slowly, and wanted to laugh more and more, "But I see, you haven't even practiced these two eyes, so don't think about looking at people with your heart eye first." ”

She was so angry by my attitude that she was like a roaring tiger, and said fiercely: "Yan Qingqing, I must kill you!"

“……！”

My heart moved slightly, and I looked up at her eyes that were bloodshot and red, and after a moment of silence, I said, "You'd better not talk nonsense." ”

“……”

"Han Zitong, since you know everything about what is happening in this mansion and will look at people with your heart, do you know what your sister was talking to me before she was injured?"

She said indignantly: "You don't divert the topic, no matter what you say, I won't believe you anymore, you slut!"

“……”

Looking at her angry look, I hesitated for a moment before I suddenly understood.

She still didn't know that the marriage might be about to take shape.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have the same attitude as she is now, at least she would have to worry about this matter, and she wouldn't have run to me so "wholeheartedly" to get angry.

If you think about it, you can see it.

When Pei Yuanxiu and Xie Feng met the two "distinguished guests" before, Han Zitong was still present, of course, they had to talk about some high-sounding words, besides, Ao Zhi and Ao Jiayu had just arrived in Jinling, and it was impossible to mention the marriage directly as soon as they met, or in the presence of Han Zitong, and later, Han Ruoshi entered the inner courtyard, and the two girls went over to ask for help, and Han Zitong came over to "solve the siege", and in the absence of the parties, Ao Zhi and they probably mentioned this matter.

And after that, because of Pei Yuanxiu's hesitation, it was naturally not good to tell her about this matter immediately.

So until now, Han Zitong should still be kept in the dark.

Looking at her angry appearance right now, I was angry, but I was a little angry, but I was not in a hurry at this time. After looking at her in silence for a while, I said slowly, "Don't you care about yourself at all?"

Before I could finish my sentence, there was another sound of footsteps outside.

I frowned—so fast?

But the next moment, I saw several attendants carrying a rattan chair to the door and stopped, Han Ruoshi was sitting on it, everyone helped her down, Han Zitong also saw her when he turned around, and hurriedly walked out: "Sister, why are you here?"

Han Ruoshi probably came over as soon as she heard the movement here, even if she didn't have to walk, she was so anxious that she turned white, and grabbed her hands: "Zitong, did you guys say something just now?"

Seeing that she was very nervous, Han Zitong became more and more angry: "Do you need to ask what you say?"

“……”

"Sister, don't swallow your anger too much!"

“……”

"You are the hostess of this home!"

As soon as she heard her say this, Han Ruoshi breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at me in the room again, and hurriedly said: "Okay, I have already said that my injury has nothing to do with Miss Yan, it is me-it is my own accident," she said as she blushed her eyes and stretched out her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes: "Zitong, if you still listen to your sister, don't come here to disturb Miss Yan again, Yuan Xiu is already very angry." ”

Han Zitong was so angry that his face was crooked: "What if he is angry? Sister, you are his wife, you were killed, do you want us to swallow our anger?!"

Seeing her like this, Han Ruoshi suddenly cried: "Zitong, do you want your sister to kneel for you, you know to stop!"

When she said this, Han Zitong was startled, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her: "Sister!"

"Come with me, or Yuan Xiu will know that you have come in to make trouble, and I will—"

Speaking of this, her words were broken, and as soon as Han Zitong heard this, the hatred on her face became more and more deep.

I stood in the room, didn't say a word from beginning to end, just watched Han Ruoshi hold her hand, as if I was afraid that I would say something more, limped her out, and a large group of people behind me followed, walking out in a mess, and the inner courtyard finally quieted down.

I walked to the door and looked at their backs from a distance, and for a long time, a faint smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.

After a while, Pei Yuanxiu came.

Naturally, the two girls went to invite him here, because I had told them before that if Han Zitong and them entered the inner courtyard again, they would have to invite Pei Yuanxiu immediately, but I didn't expect that Han Ruoshi's news would spread faster than my own side, so I quickly came over and took her sister away.

The fall hurt her leg, but it didn't affect her dexterity.

After Pei Yuanxiu came over, he asked for a long time before and after making sure that I was okay before leaving.

The two girls cautiously walked to the door and asked, "Miss Yan, are you okay?"

I smiled: "Of course it's nothing, it's just that Miss Zitong came over to spread her anger because of her sister's grievances." ”

“……”

"Fortunately, you invited Pei Gongzi so quickly. ”

They looked at each other, obviously feeling that Pei Yuanxiu had no effect when he came, after all, Han Ruoshi had pulled Han Zitong away early in the morning, and he came over just to ask me, so he asked hesitantly: "Then, if Miss Zitong wants to break in next time, do we still have to-"

"Of course!" I said firmly, "No matter when, as long as Miss Zitong comes in alone to find me, she must spread the news, you know?"

"Okay. ”

The two of them said yes and turned to leave.

I could feel that the two of them were still a little puzzled, but in order to protect my safety, it was inconvenient to ask more, and I sat alone in the room, feeling that this Jinling Mansion had finally retreated from the hustle and bustle of the day after nightfall, and was a little more peaceful.

But the tranquility was probably nothing more than the vibration that preceded the storm.

|

The next day, I stayed in the inner courtyard all day and didn't go out.

I don't know if I'm quiet, or if the people outside have calmed down, there was nothing for the whole day, compared to the previous two days, all kinds of "accidents" were frequent, this day was like a sudden invisible shroud over Jinling Mansion, isolating a qiē uneasiness.

It wasn't until late in the evening that I couldn't hold back my loneliness and was ready to go out for a walk.

Those two girls naturally followed behind me.

We went out of the side door and soon arrived at Nangong Lizhu's residence.

It's still quiet here as always, although Pei Yuanxiu doesn't want us to meet frequently, he doesn't explicitly prohibit it, so when I came over, someone still came to greet me, and he led me to the door of the room in Nangong Lizhu before retreating.

I pushed the door open and walked in, and I saw another mess.

The house was full of mess, and the pale and emaciated woman was sitting on the windowsill in a daze.

Looking at it from this angle, I can't see the wound on her face, she is still a haggard beauty, sitting there in a daze, and it makes people feel a little bit like they want to pity her.

Hearing my footsteps, she turned her head: "You're here?"

"Hmm. ”

"Why are you here?"

"What, I can't come?"

"I thought you were going to be busy these two days. As she spoke, a light flashed in her eyes: "Isn't it very lively in the house over there?"

I smiled faintly: "You're well-informed. ”

She also smiled, but there was more coldness in her smile: "Aren't you going to rely on me to ask you for news?"

"Did you find out anything?"

"You should already know this news," she lowered her elbow from the windowsill lightly and said, "That King of Bohai sent a pair of his sons and daughters to Jinling. ”

"Well, do you know what he sent them for?"

Nangong Lizhu glanced at me: "It seems that you already know." ”

"Hmm. I nodded, thought for a moment and asked, "When you went south from the capital before, did you contact anyone over there?"

She shook her head, "No." Ao Ping's people, I've never seen them. It was also this time when I came here that I realized that they had already colluded. ”

As she spoke, a sneer appeared on her face: "This time, that Second Miss Han won't be able to cry." ”

I glanced at her, "You know?"

She sneered: "Just her face, her emotions and desires are written so that even a blind person can see it clearly, probably she herself thinks it's a secret." ”

I said, "Then what do you think her sister has seen about this 'secret'?"
