It was almost time for curfew, and Xie Liangying put on a cloak and sent Xue Jian, who wanted to stay on it, out of Xie Mansion.

However, it is better to say that it is more correct than to send.

Back in the room, Xie Liangying asked Qingqiu to ask Mama Lian and Shuangjue to come over to see her.

Shuangjue followed behind Mama Lian step by step, and was extremely polite. Neither more than one step, nor no more than one step, always maintaining a distance of two steps.

After being reborn, seeing the old man again, Xie Liangying's heart was naturally happy. She beckoned Shuangjue to take a few steps forward, came to her, held her hand and asked, "Do you understand the rules that Mama taught you?" The rules of the Xie family and the Hou Mansion are very similar, you are new here, even if you are wrong, it doesn't matter. ”

Shuangjue glanced at Xie Liangying quickly, feeling a little strange about her overly gentle attitude towards herself. But I immediately thought that maybe because I was a person from Yunyang Hou, I was very concerned.

People in the capital say that Miss Xie Wu and Hou Ye Xue have a very close relationship, and now it seems to be true. Shuangjue has been by Xue Jian's side for a few years, and she also hopes that Xue Jian can marry a woman who treats each other sincerely.

Xie Liangying glanced at her a few times, "You have been by Xue Jian's side for a few years." ”

"Yes, the slave has been by the Hou Ye's side for five years."

Xie Liangying nodded, and said to Qingqiu and the others: "Let Shuangjue keep vigil tonight, I will also give you a vacation, I have served me for many years, and I have not had a good rest." ”

Even Mama was a little apprehensive, "Girl, Shuangjue is the first day to come, and she is not familiar with the girl's affairs, so let's delay it for a few days?" ”

Xie Liangying smiled: "What Mama is afraid of, she won't know it, so she should keep it by my side." If you are familiar with each other, you will not know it in the future. With that, he turned his head to look at Shuangjue, waiting for her answer.

Shuangjue thought quickly, "The slave listens to the girl." Tonight, the girl just commands me. ”

Under Mama Lian's unease, the matter was decided. Several people waited for Xie Liangying to wash, locked the gate of the courtyard, and turned off the lights.

Shuangjue hugged the futon and planned to go to rest on the couch outside. But I heard Xie Liangying inside instruct: "Come in and sleep in the room." She paused, and then spun inside.

Xie Liangying propped up her hands on the bed and watched Shuangjue lay down on the mattress and clothes. "Do you know why Master Hou sent you?"

Shuangjue turned around, saw Xie Liangying clearly by the moonlight, and said slowly in a hoarse voice: "Hou Ye originally picked five, all of them are old people who have been by his side for a long time. Three are men, and the Hou Ye is afraid that he will not be able to take care of the girl because of the difference between men and women. Later, she wanted to send me and another one over, but she hurt her hand a few days ago and couldn't come. ”

"Will you go back to the Hou Mansion in the future?" After a long time, her hands were a little sore, Xie Liangying changed her posture, she remembered that Shuangjue seemed to have a sister with a weak right hand in her previous life, "Tell me before you go back, help me bring some medicine for her." Ah, is that your sister? Called a double ring? ”

Shuangjue was a little surprised, how did Xie Liangying guess? However, she didn't ask the words, but said, "The slave and maid thanked Mrs. for her sister first." ”

Xie Liangying was stunned for a moment, "You...... What do you call me?! ”

Shuangjue's face did not change and said, "Madam." Sooner or later, the girl will marry into the Hou Mansion, and she is naturally the wife of the slave. ”

Xie Liangying covered her face with a quilt. is worthy of being Xue Jian's person, this cheekiness must have been taught by him.

Shuangjue looked at Xie Liangying, who was rolling on the bed, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth. She remembered what she had asked Xue Jian before leaving.

"Master Hou, what kind of person is Miss Xie Wu?"

Xue Jian took the fan and tapped his chin, "What kind of person......" The smile on his face was more than a spring flower, "It's very interesting, it's worth it...... A person who is carefully treasured. ”

Shuangjue had never seen such a look in Xue Jian's eyes, full of spoiling that was almost overflowing.

"Perhaps, she is not good in the eyes of others. But in my eyes, there is no blemish. Xue Jian looked at Shuangjue, "Take good care of her for me, and protect her when I can't get to her." ”

"Yes."

"Also, she is not Miss Xie Wu, but your wife." Xue Jian said, "It is said that husband and wife are of the same heart, if she dies, how can I survive." ”

Shuangjue wrapped himself in the quilt and chuckled, obviously he didn't mean it like that, but he insisted that Hou Ye break it like that.

Madame......

Xie Liangying was ashamed on the bed for a long time, and finally let her panting self out of the quilt. She said, "Don't take care of me first, help me do something first." ”

"But the Hou Ye ......"

Xie Liangying waved her hand, "I know, Xue Jian must tell you something." Leave him alone. Now you're mine. ”

Shuangjue was silent. "But the deed of sale of the slave is still in the hands of the Hou Ye."

Xie Liangying was stuck, biting the quilt and complaining a little about Xue Jian. Sending someone away doesn't give a full set.

Shuangjue laughed softly, "Master Hou listens to Madame, and the slave maid naturally listens to Madame." What does the girl want me to do? ”

Xie Liangying let go of the quilt and poked her head out of the bed to look at Shuangjue, "Xue Jian called you here, but it was because I was followed in the dark recently." They don't want my life, I just don't leave the house. Xue Jian also gave a warning today, and I am afraid that he will be more restrained in the future. Or simply evacuate the people.

Shuangjue said suddenly: "Madame said it, but the old lady in the house?" ”

Xie Liangying was silent for a long time, "Hmm." She continued, "Grandmother sent someone to follow me, just to find out where I came from. When she saw Xue Jian sending you over at dinner, she should know what he meant. Won't be too much of a restraint on me next. I just need you to help me go to Shuangque Hutong and find a woman named Wu Yi for me. ”

Shuangjue said: "The girl just don't worry, find someone, the slave can still do it." ”

Xie Liangying said with a smile: "I know martial arts, I am well-informed and can find people, in my opinion, it is already very powerful." So what can't you do? ”

Shuangjue said in a sullen voice: "Female red...... Same as the woman's appearance. "She's not good-looking, and she's just mediocre when she applies fat powder, so she doesn't use those Raushzi.

Xie Liangying heard the loneliness in Shuangjue's words. She said in her heart, silly Shuangjue, what are you anxious about, there are so many people in the world, there will always be one who knows the pearl and knows your goodness.

Shuangjue didn't want to continue on this topic, so she changed her mind and asked, "When does the girl want to find someone?" ”

"It doesn't have to be too fast." Xie Liangying put her hands on her hands and said slowly, "The person who follows my grandmother, I just need to intercept the person before her." ”

"Yes."

"Sleep, I'm going to wake up early tomorrow." Shuangjue seemed to hear a hint of joy in Xie Liangying's tone, "My mother and sister are not well, I have to get up early to see them and then go to say goodbye." ”

All the rooms have been closed, but Xie Shenzhi pulled the staff raised in the house into the study, not knowing what he was discussing.

Only the grandmother of the Xie family was left in the main house.

The grandmother of the Xie family listened to Ru Mama's return blankly, and said indifferently: "Yes, it seems that the Marquis of Yunyang is already a minister under Ah Ying's skirt?" It seems that we were all worried in vain before, even if the Xie family withdraws from the marriage, Yunyang Hou will die and beg to post it in vain. ”

Ru Mama lowered her head so low that she could barely see her smooth forehead.

The grandmother of the Xie family closed her eyes and pretended to sleep without speaking.

Everyone in the room lowered their breath, carefully maintaining the eerie silence of the room.

"I said, how could I lose it." The grandmother of the Xie family vigorously rolled over each wooden bead on the string of Buddhist beads, "It turned out that someone was making a hindrance." ”

Thinking of dinner, Xue Jian glanced at himself coldly, and the Xie family's grandmother's hand clenched violently.

She could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive herself, and she was scared at that time.

Xue Jian's age is not much different from Xie Chuquan, the eldest grandson of the Xie family. A man who could almost be her grandson.

She looked down on herself in her heart, how many storms and waves, how much suffering, she came over like this. She didn't allow herself to lower her head, she could only raise her chin high, and the Xie family was still waiting for her to support her until the moment she died.

The grandmother of the Xie family opened her eyes suddenly. She looked around the room, and all the people had their heads bowed, and no one dared to look at her with their eyes. And she saw their eyes, and couldn't tell what they were thinking from their faces.

But it doesn't matter, no matter what they think of her in their hearts, they are only afraid now.

The grandmother of the Xie family lowered her eyes and looked at her hands. These hands are no more delicate than the lady next to them, and although they have been maintained for many years, the fine scars on the top of the head in the early years cannot be erased.

At that time, the Xie family did not have the current situation. Xie Shenzhi hasn't sat down yet, but he is just a small handyman beside the prince. And she is just a good citizen. Relying only on Xie Shenzhi's meager salary, it is whimsical to want to have a slightly decent appearance in the capital.

At that time, in order to maintain Xie Shenzhi's dignity, she didn't know how much private work she had done in private. You have to be incognito and not let people know. lest people look down on their Xie family and the prince.

Slowly, they had children. Relying on the prince's face, he married a daughter-in-law who was passable in a few rooms. But the embarrassment of the family has not changed much.

Until one day, there was chaos in Beijing, and several important ministers were beheaded one after another. And Xie Shenzhi came back with a baby that night.

It's a baby girl.

Later, the crown prince ascended the throne, and Xie Shenzhi did not come to Tailai, and his official career was smooth.

The grandmother of the Xie family closed her eyes, but she seemed to see the queen's face, which was no longer red, and was glaring at her with an angry face. Her mouth moved, as if she was saying something, but she couldn't hear it. But the grandmother of the Xie family knew what she was going to say.

"Withdraw the people around Hotaru."

Ru Mama lowered her head and signaled that she knew.

The grandmother of the Xie family paused and said, "Find out Wu Yi, and go through the entire capital to find someone for me." ”

If Mama blessed her body, she stepped on small steps and withdrew to command.

If Wu Yi can be found, he may be able to make King Ke's Mansion, which has been wavering, stand on the side of the Xie family. The Liu family, the Liu Taifu who never stands on the wrong side can no longer be counted on.

But it doesn't matter, the Xie family let Mrs. Liu taste the only mistake in his life.
