Chapter 121: Falling into the water
Xue Ying didn't say anything, and waited for him quietly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lan Geng seemed a little helpless: "You are even more calm than Xue Yao." ”
"......" Xue Ying was very dissatisfied with the fact that he compared the two people, but she still couldn't help but speak-that's right, she just wanted to suffocate him!
Although the purpose of suffocating death was not achieved, Lan Geng was indeed hit by her silence, so he had to change back to a serious look. "I saw what happened in the pavilion that day, it was Yiyi who pushed you and caused you to be injured later, on the one hand, you saved Yiyi after all, and you are the benefactor of our Lan family, on the other hand, our Lan family also bears unshirkable responsibility for your injury, so my proposal to the Xue family was carefully considered, not an impulsive move. ”
Xue Ying snorted lightly, noncommittal.
Lan Geng, who was originally full of confidence, was a little confused by her repeated non-acceptances: "I have no intersection with you before, if I say how deep my feelings are for you, I'm afraid you won't believe it." But I can promise you that when he gets married, I will share weal and woe, respect each other as guests, follow the teachings of my ancestors, be loyal, and never take concubines. ”
Does the Lan family still have a rule that no concubines are allowed?
Although Xue Ying was slightly surprised, she was not too shocked. After all, for a man, if he is really a big carrot, it has no effect if he takes a concubine or not.
It's just that although she can think so, for those who have fantasies about monogamy, this ancestral family rule is very attractive. In addition, Lan Geng's family background is good and his people are also excellent......
"No wonder Xue Yao cares about you so much. She muttered.
Lan Geng hurriedly explained: "There is absolutely no personal relationship between me and the second lady. ”
"Alright, alright. Xue Ying waved her hand and muttered, "What do the two little children say 'private feelings', it's really funny......" Although she knew that Xue Yao was a traverser, after all, in reality, Xue Yao and Lan Geng were children who didn't have the same hair, and she really couldn't connect the word "private feelings" with the two of them.
"What did you say?" Lan Geng didn't hear clearly.
"All in all, your family wants you to marry a young lady from the Jian'an Hou Mansion, but you don't like Xue Yao. At this time, I rushed out, and you just used me as a shield, and you also got a good reputation for being upright and responsible, right?"
"No......" Lan Geng was dumbfounded. Xue Ying's reasoning has nothing to do with what he just said!
"What to repay the gratitude, what to be responsible, don't say those hypocritical things to me. Xue Ying rolled her eyes and squinted at him, "How old are you, as for putting the responsibility of the entire family on your shoulders?"
Lan Geng's expression slowly turned cold from surprise: "It seems that Miss Xue San knows a lot." ”
"No, I don't know anything, and I'm not interested in your intrigues. Xue Ying flicked her sleeves boredly, "You don't have to come out of your way to appease me, in this Hou Mansion, my opinion is never important." You don't have to worry that one day I'll go crazy and resist or something, I know that getting married between two families is a big deal, and I can't help it. ”
Lan Geng was silent for a while, and then shouted, "Xue Ying." ”
Xue Ying looked up at him.
Lan Geng's expression was serious: "I'm not afraid that you will cause any trouble so I came to appease you, I just think that after all, we are going to become husband and wife, and some knots are better to be untied as soon as possible, so as not to hurt each other." ”
Xue Ying sighed heavily: "Husband and wife, how old are you, don't you feel awkward to say this word? Also, you are really old-fashioned, and the way this husband and wife get along is more transparent than those who have been running in for more than ten years." ”
"Because I'm serious about our future. ”
It should make people feel completely disobedient for a teenager to say such things, but Lan Geng's solemn expression made Xue Ying have to take it with the same seriousness.
"Alright then, what do you have to do. All I can promise you is this: I will remain silent. ”
Lan Geng's tense expression relaxed slightly: "Thank you." ”
"Is it over?"
Lan Geng stepped out of the way: "Please." ”
Xue Ying knew that in order to avoid people's eyes, he would stay here for a while longer, so he went out to find Dong Xun. Fortunately, Dong Xun didn't go far, just under the corridor on the other side of the pool, but this girl didn't know if she was still feeling guilty about her "betraying" Xue Ying, and stared at the lotus pond motionlessly, not noticing Xue Ying's appearance at all.
Although the place where Dong Xun was located was not far from this side, because the corridor was curved, Xue Ying still needed to take a long detour. The corridor extended from under the two lush camphor trees, and the moment she entered the corridor, Xue Ying's eyes darkened because of the change in light, and before she could get used to it, an external force suddenly hit her hard, like a big sandbag, knocking her all her internal organs out of place. She only felt that something had stumbled under her feet, and the whole person had fallen upside down in front of her.
At that moment, Xue Ying felt as if she was screaming, but she didn't know why the sound in her ears was thunder from the sky.
"Poof!"
I don't know if this is lucky, but anyway, she planted herself headlong into the lotus pond and successfully avoided the tragedy of her head falling open. After choking on a mouthful of water, she stood up on her feet and coughed violently. When he wiped his face and looked up, he was greeted by a face distorted and hideous by resentment—a very unfamiliar face.
The man was about twelve or thirteen years old, and it was not difficult to see from her clothes that this was a maid from the Jian'an Hou Mansion. Only, why did she push her into the water?
"Slut!" the man glared at her fiercely, "you go die!"
"Ahem!" Xue Ying coughed so much that her chest was about to burst, and the wound on her face was in severe pain because of this, and it seemed to be showing signs of reopening.
"Boom!" thunder sounded again from the sky, dark clouds gathered, and the light around them instantly weakened.
"What are you doing?!" Lan Geng actually heard the sound and rushed over, seeing this, he pushed the maid away, lifted the hem of her clothes, and was about to jump off the lotus pond to save people.
"Don't come here!" ......Xue Ying hurriedly stopped him.
Lan Geng stared at her with wide eyes and horror: "Your face ......"
Xue Ying lightly touched the painful left side of her face. After falling from the lotus pond, everything she was wearing on her face had fallen, and the wound, which had been ugly black scabs, had now cracked open again and covered with a layer of blood—she knew how horrible she looked now.
"Miss!" Dong Xun finally heard the movement here, rushed over to take a look, and his face turned white with fright.
The place where Xue Ying fell was originally on the edge of the lotus pond, so she simply walked to the side by herself, and climbed from the water to the shore with difficulty. Fortunately, Dong Xun didn't have weak legs and couldn't walk directly this time, and he could still run over and pull her.
And after standing firm, the first picture Xue Ying saw was Lan Geng taking a small step back in horror. Alas, it seems that her appearance frightened this calm little friend.
"Ahem. Xue Ying coughed from her throat again, and found that the maid who had just pushed her into the water was gone.
