Shen Xi watched Xie Yan speak, for the first time he felt that the light on this wife was dazzling, in the past, he only felt that she was a very good interpretation flower, with her by his side, he could relax anytime and anywhere, without being like before, he kept hatred in his diary, thinking about revenge all the time, it was she who let him know that in addition to revenge, there were other more beautiful things in this world, and these beautiful things were all brought to herself.

A gentle and considerate wife, a happy family, and a healthy and lovely son...... These are things he didn't dare to think of before, so he never hoped that this woman would give him any help before, not because he disliked her, but because he felt that she was already good enough, but he didn't expect that after this incident, God let him see her wise side, and this kind of mood that he had earned by marrying her suddenly doubled, and she was not at all a word that could be described as "earning".

Seeing Shen Xi looking at her stupidly, Xie Yan couldn't help but touch her cheek and asked:

"Huh? Am I wrong about what I said? ”

Secretly thinking back to the previous words, I was afraid that I had leaked something, or said something that should not be said, but after thinking about it, Xie Yan found that she had not said anything wrong, and then put down the teacup and looked up at Shen Xi.

Shen Xi also seemed to realize that he was out of shape, and after taking a deep breath, he also put down the teacup, hugged Xie Yan in his arms, and said with a expression:

"Hitomi, you are so good, if you are not by my side in the future, what should I do?"

“……”

Xie Yan looked at Shen Xi puzzled, not understanding why he suddenly said this, remembering that if he ascended the throne, it was still a question whether he could stay by his side, and couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"As long as you don't want me, how can I not be by your side? Unless you don't want me anymore. ”

Shen Xi took her into his arms and said solemnly:

"I won't want you. Even if you don't want me, I won't want you! ”

Xie Yan was held in his arms, and when she heard him say this, the corners of her eyes seemed to hurt a little, she sighed helplessly, reached out and touched Shen Xi's cheek, and said:

"Remember what you say. In the future, I don't want to be able to compare with you, as long as I give me a place where I can see you, it will be enough. ”

Shen Xi put a kiss on her lips and said:

"Say what? If you are not comparable to me in this world, who can compare with me? Don't forget, you are the one I am marrying, and you are not a concubine, no matter what my identity is in the future, where I am, you will always be the only person who can compare with me. ”

Shen Xi seemed to understand the meaning of Xie Yan's words. He knew that his identity was different now, and Ah Hitomi would definitely have panic in his heart, and he hoped to do his best to alleviate her feelings, no matter how much he said, it was useless, only such a guarantee could make her feel a little more at ease.

Xie Yan looked at Shen Xi's appearance of trying his best to comfort her, and couldn't help but smile, the hand that caressed his cheek was very gentle, and said:

"Your future identity is unattainable, I know what my identity is, but I am just a concubine from a third-rate marquis's mansion, and the identity of the eldest son of your Dingguo Duke is 108,000 miles apart, not to mention the future identity. There should be the daughter of the prime minister, the daughter of the third prince, the daughter of the general, and the daughter of the captain and the master standing next to you, but it will never be like me. You don't have to say those words to comfort me, I have thought about my end since the day I married you. ”

Shen Xi frowned and asked:

"What do you think about your end?"

Xie Yan lowered her head and sighed, and before she could speak, she heard Shen Xi continue: "You just want to have a place next to me?" Are you willing to give me up to another woman? ”

"Huh? I think you're itching, aren't you? ”

Xie Yan was a little puzzled why Shen Xi's tone of voice changed, and when she reacted, the whole person had been hugged by Shen Xi, she lost her face, hooked Shen Xi's neck with both hands, and said:

"Husband, husband...... You, what are you doing! ”

Shen Xi turned a deaf ear to Xie Yan's exclamation, and walked straight to the inner room with her, and then began to use actions to show punishment for disobedience, and after a while, some sounds made people blush and heartbeat came from the inner room, which lasted until late at night before gradually stopping.

The next day, Xie Yan held her waist, her limbs were weak, and she wanted to cry without tears...... t_t

*****

Fu Shuang quickly sent a reply to Xie Yan, handed over the post and came to Canglan Garden.

Xie Yan didn't greet her, and asked directly:

"How? What's special about it? ”

Fu Shuang sat down with her stomach up, and after serving her tea, she obediently retreated, and only they were left in the ear room, Fu Shuang took out the silver hairpin in his sleeve and handed it back to Xie Yan, and told Xie Yan some news he knew, saying:

"Don't ask and don't know, although this hairpin is ordinary, but there are some special features, you see the auspicious cloud pattern on the top, and the auspicious cloud pattern in the capital is not the same, although there are auspicious clouds on the jewelry in our capital, but it will not be like this out of the four layers, because the capital avoids four, generally three layers, and there is only one place in the world in Fuzhou Mansion will use such a texture."

Xie Yan was shocked, but she didn't expect that she just wanted Fu Shuang to check casually, and really found out something, since this hairpin came from Fuzhou Mansion, then she had reason to believe that the original owner of the hairpin was very likely to be from Fuzhou Mansion.

"And look at the flower next to this auspicious cloud, it's a plum blossom. There is not much popular plum blossom in Beijing in the past ten years, because the meaning is not good, only those talented women who are proud of their talents will like it, and the deep lady lady who is generally sold in a wide range does not love the style of this plum blossom, and the plum blossom on this silver hairpin, the style is also relatively old, Mei Rui is still four heels, which shows that it will not be the color of the goods in the capital. ”

Fu Shuang's words made Xie Yan fall into deep thought, and after thinking about it, he asked Fu Shuang:

"You mean, the owner of this silver hairpin may be from Fuzhou Mansion, or maybe he is still a person of some age?"

Fu Shuang nodded: "Yes." Master Zhang in Duobao Pavilion was born in Fuzhou Mansion, so he only knew about these things, if he was a master from other places, he probably wouldn't be able to say so much detail. ”

Xie Yan really thought that this time it was really like God's help, so she mastered this clue, and asked Fu Shuang again:

"In addition to this, did the old master say anything?"

Fu Shuang took a sip of water, hugged his stomach and thought about it, and then said:

"Hmm...... Yes, yes, the master also said that the style of this hairpin was not created by the silver shop alone. Sister, you are also a shareholder of Duobao Pavilion, so you should know about these things, if the jewelry created in our gold shop, if the guest asks, then we must be special, if the guest does not ask, then it is common for us to make hundreds or thousands at a time. However, the effort to make thousands of them is certainly not as fine as the special one, so he judged from the silver quality and workmanship of this hairpin that this hairpin must have been made by a large family for the servants of the family, so the silver quality is superior, but the workmanship may not be exquisite, and it is not worth any money, which is the meaning of a façade. ”

When Xie Yan heard this, she was more sure in her heart. It seems that this time, Fu Shuangcha did not check the hairpin in vain, and unexpectedly gained so many clues.

Originally, he wanted to leave Fu Shuang to eat in the mansion, but Fu Shuang said that Xie Shao had been at home for the past two days, and she was going back to serve.

Thinking that I hadn't gone to ask the old lady for a few days, I wanted to take advantage of today's good weather to go to see the old lady.

But when I walked into the garden, I bumped into a person head-on.

Hua Yizhuqing hurriedly stopped in front of Xie Yan, and replaced Xie Yan and collided with the person, Danxue was arranged by Xie Yan to take care of the longevity of life before, so now Xie Yan is only protected by the two of them, and she is always very careful on weekdays.

The two girls blocked the disaster for Xie Yan and supported her to get up, and then Xie Yan saw who collided with them, and she was also shocked.

"Aunt Lian?"

The person who collided with Huayi Zhuqing, who is not Aunt Lian?

I saw that Aunt Lian's face was a little pale, the corners of her mouth and eyes were a little bruised, and she saw that the person who hit her was Xie Yan, so she lowered her head and saluted Xie Yan, Xie Yan stepped forward to help her up, and asked:

"Aunt Lian, what's going on on your face?"

Aunt Lian's face was stunned, her face seemed to be whiter than just now, she stretched out her hand to cover the wound at the corner of her mouth, and then slowly shook her head and said:

"No, it's nothing, before, I fell before."

Xie Yan looked at her suspiciously, the injury on her face didn't look like it had fallen. Seeing that her expression was in a trance, and her body was still trembling with fright, as if she was afraid that Xie Yan would continue to ask deeply, Aunt Lian bowed to Xie Yan again, and her voice was as low as a mosquito:

"If the princess is fine, then the concubine will retire, and there are still many things to deal with."

After saying this, without waiting for Xie Yan to react, Aunt Lian ran away from the flowery garden at a trot.

Xie Yan stared at her departing back, thoughtful. I was depressed, and I was not even happy to take the old lady there, so I shouted Huayi Zhuqing and went back to Canglan Garden.

In the courtyard, Hu Quan was waiting for her, when he came before, Xie Yan happened to go to see Fu Shuang, Hu Quan couldn't see her, so he waited here, and when he saw Xie Yan coming back, he greeted him and said:

"Madam, I have found you the list of people in the mansion you want, there are a total of 320 slaves in the Dingguo Mansion, 130 people in the front yard, 80 people in the back yard, and the others are divided into each house and courtyard."

Xie Yan nodded, then called Hu Quan to go to the flower hall together, and really saw several thick booklets on the table, and asked:

"How many of these people are from Fuzhou?"

When Hu Quan looked for Xie Yan's roster, he had already sent someone to look through the statistics once, so now Xie Yan can still answer when he asks.

"Mrs. Hui, eight of us are from Fuzhou Mansion. That place is remote, and it is not a one-time time to come to our house, and a few of them have also broken some setbacks. ”

"Okay, let me ask you again, how many of these eight are middle-aged women? How many of them have been registered in a large family in Fuzhou in the past? ”
