225:Defeat (15 pink+)
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
No one spoke first, and the sound of falling snow could almost be heard outside the house in silence.
He Xueli didn't know how to refute Xia Ruan.
Because what Xia Ruan said is the truth.
He Xueli also heard her aunt say that Xia Ruan has a kind temperament and rarely gets angry on weekdays, so she said what she just said.
If she wants to curry favor with Ang Lee now, she must make Xia Ruan embarrassed in front of Ang Lee.
It's just that He Xueli never thought that Xia Ruan would actually reprimand her.
"Cousin." Xia Ruan turned his eyes to look at Li An, "Let's go to the third uncle's study, I want to borrow some more books to see." ”
Li An couldn't help but nod his head.
He had heard some complaints from Xiao Anli's mouth before, and Xiao Anli and Tang Jingxuan had a headache when they talked about Xia Ruan.
At that time, Xiao Anli was a little depressed: "I have never seen such a scathing woman, Hou Ye is cautious." ”
Tang Jingxuan looked stunned at the time, and finally nodded with a smile.
Li Ang rarely saw Xia Ruan angry, and when she quarreled with her mother some time ago, she also looked calm. On the contrary, his mother was jumping on the side angrily, and when he heard Xia Ruan's words again today, he felt that his cousin, who never showed mercy in the slap.
He Xueli came back to her senses and slowly stood up: "If you don't learn, you can't do anything." ”
"Miss Eighteen's words seem to be talking about yourself." Xia Ruan had a faint smile on her lips, "I heard that outsiders say that Miss Eighteen has both talent and learning, and the result is ...... At the hairpin party held at Mrs. Shangshu's house, Miss Eighteen said something......"
Ang Lee couldn't help but laugh. He hurriedly picked it up: "Miss Eighteen was ...... at that time Said, said, 'Ten thousand flowers are like the sunset, and the heart is in a dream', haha......"
As soon as Ang Li's voice fell, He Xueli's face turned pale.
He Xueli has spent all these years learning chess skills, and she knows very little about poetry and books. At that time, Mrs. Shangshu held a hairpin party, and He took her with her. He Xueli has been thinking that if Li Changfeng does not have the intention of remarrying, then she will not have any chance. Thinking about Song Yingruo, she suddenly felt that half of her inner thoughts were missing.
At the hairpin flower meeting. Naturally, she wanted to be in the limelight.
At that time, Mrs. Shangshu said. Shangshu likes to compose poetry, so she moved her thoughts.
He seemed to see her thoughts at that time, so he said: "Ten thousand flowers are like the sunset, and the heart is in a dream." ”
He Xueli never thought that her aunt would make her ugly. So he said this sentence that he thought was good in front of everyone.
When she said. Somewhat smug.
Outcome. This is tantamount to slapping Mrs. Shangshu in the face.
The setting sun is the sunset, and the flowers in this hairpin will be carefully cultivated by Mrs. Shangshu...... Ten thousand flowers are like a falling sun, which does not mean that Mrs. Shangshu is old and decrepit now. It's like the setting sun. Because he couldn't win the appreciation of Lord Shangshu, he could only send his heart to his dreams.
Lord Shangshu just accepted a few beautiful girls some time ago, and Mrs. Shangshu held a hairpin party because she was lonely in the boudoir, but it turned out to be like this.
At that time, Mrs. Shangshu almost gritted her teeth, but she still took care of the people around her and swallowed this anger.
After He Xueli came back, she didn't know how to explain it to outsiders, because this sentence was obviously taught by He Shi.
Now, she can't argue.
He Xueli only later knew from her mother's mouth that she would definitely marry Li Changfeng, so her aunt didn't like her to be clever. However, He Xueli was still a little angry, after all, this time she not only offended people, but also lost face once. Even if she can marry Li Changfeng safely, this matter is also a stain on her, no matter how brilliant the future is, it can't be erased.
"It seems that the third lady must have both talent and learning?" He Xueli glared back fiercely, with a bit of resentment in her eyes, "I heard my cousin say that the third lady is superb in chess a few days ago, I wonder if I can ask the third lady for advice today?" ”
He Xueli knew that she would definitely not be able to compare with Xia Ruan in poetry and books, but she was still very confident in chess.
She played against Li Zhiya during this time, although she also lost many times, but she also won a few times from Li Zhiya's hands. She thinks that her chess skills are evenly matched with Li Zhiya, so she naturally won't take Xia Ruan to heart.
He Xueli tried her best to show her good side in front of Ang Lee, but she made a lot of jokes every time. At this time, she secretly cursed in her heart, Xia Ruan, a little slut, would definitely lose face for a while.
When He Xueli heard Ang Lee mention Xia Ruan in the past, she said that Xia Ruan's chess skills were good.
It is said that neither Li Cheng nor Li Tu is Xia Ruan's opponent.
She scoffed.
After all, Ang Lee and Xia Ruan have a deep brother and sister relationship, and it is possible that Ang Lee will exaggerate.
Thinking of this, He Xueli looked at Xia Ruan's eyes with a little contempt.
Xia Ruan pretended to be puzzled and looked at He Xueli: "Thank you Miss Eighteen for your compliment, but I don't want to play against Miss Eighteen." ”
After He Xueli heard this, her eyes widened.
She didn't expect Xia Ruan to accept her 'praise' words, the Xia family is just a businessman's household, a person with a copper smell, and he dares to admit that he is erudite and talented, which is a joke.
But He Xueli looked at Xia Ruan with sincerity in her eyes, and she knew that Xia Ruan was very useful to her.
He Xueli was almost dizzy.
She never thought that Xia Ruan's daughter's family would be humble. She was just polite, but Xia Ruan ......
"Why?" He Xueli was angry, but she didn't dare to attack. Li An is still here, and she still has to take care of her own influence, "Is the third miss afraid of losing to me?" ”
He Xueli did not hesitate to sarcastically mock Xia Ruan, wanting to achieve her goal.
If Xia Ruan doesn't play against her, then, as she said, Xia Ruan is afraid of losing to her.
If Xia Ruan is stimulated to play against her, then Xia Ruan's fate will be even worse.
Whether Xia Ruan agrees or not, Xia Ruan is destined to make a fool of himself today.
He Xueli had already thought about how to laugh at Xia Ruan in her heart...... Now it's just a matter of waiting for the fish to take the bait.
Xia Ruan looked at He Xueli fixedly and smiled faintly. Shaking his head, he said, "I don't have my grandfather's stamina, and I don't like to be merciful...... I'm afraid that Miss Eighteen will lose to me, and my grandfather won't play against Miss Eighteen anymore. At that time, if Miss Eighteen wanted to come to the Li family again, what name would she use? ”
Xia Ruan's words blocked He Xueli's mouth again.
Indeed, if she loses to Xia Ruan, if she wants to come to the Li family in the future, what name will she use?
is not as good as others, Xia Ruan will replace her position in Li Zhiya's heart.
He Xueli looked at Xia Ruan thoughtfully. There was something up and down in my heart.
Will she lose to Ha Nguyen? He Xueli thought in her heart. She wasn't sure.
Her father once said that Ha Nguyen was a successful businessman.
It is a very difficult process for the Xia family to develop from a small merchant in decline to being able to stand side by side with the Kyoto Nanjia today. And the Xia family will be so powerful. It's all because Xia Ruan has a unique way of doing business.
Fathers rarely praise an outsider like that. He Xueli hesitated a little.
Xia Ruan lost. And she couldn't afford to lose.
The girl in front of her has a pure and kind face, but in fact, behind it is the heart of a femme fatale.
He Xueli bit her lower lip. Leng snorted.
Xia Ruan saw that He Xueli was no longer speechless, so she stood up from the chair and said to Li An, who was smiling silly: "Cousin, let's go to the study?" ”
"Good, good, good." Li An said three good things in a row, he really thought that this kind of Xia Ruan was interesting, not at all like a kind person on weekdays, but this kind of Xia Ruan made him appreciate it very much.
He Xueli opened her mouth and wanted to talk to Ang Lee, but she didn't know what to say.
She sighed helplessly in her heart, pursed her lips and said no more.
After she goes back today, she must ask her father to ask Li Cheng and Li Tu how Xia Ruan's chess skills are.
Knowing oneself and knowing the other side can win all battles.
Xia Ruan came out of the house, stood outside the door and couldn't help but gather the crane on his body.
There is still some distance from the west living room to Li Changfeng's study.
For the first time, Xia Ruan felt that the Chengguo Mansion was terrifying.
"Be careful." Li An reminded Xia Ruan while saying with a smile, "Cousin, you were really powerful just now. ”
Xia Ruan smiled back at Li An: "Why did my cousin say that?" ”
Li An thought for a while before lowering his voice and saying, "In fact, everyone in the court knows what is going on in Huai'an, but now that Lord Xiao has not returned, this matter has been suppressed. The emperor was actually a little annoyed, but the emperor was not angry with Lord Xiao, but angry with the He family. If the He family has nothing to do with the Li family, it will be disposed of if it is disposed of...... But you also know that the relationship between the Li family and the He family, if the emperor wants to dispose of the He family, then it will sweep away his father's face. ”
Xia Ruan knew that the last thing the emperor could not sweep away now was Li Changfeng's face.
Dong Xiao has always been eyeing him, and the person who can make Dong Xiao and the princes scruple at this moment is Li Changfeng.
The emperor now loves and hates Li Changfeng.
The Li family's current situation is delicate, if Xiao Jiu can successfully become the Marquis of Chang'an and have always been good friends with Li Changfeng, then the pressure on the Li family may be a little less.
My grandfather doesn't object to her and Xiao Jiu's relationship now, I'm afraid it's because of this.
Xia Ruan seemed to understand why Xiao Jiu insisted on going to Los Angeles.
He wanted that identity, and he wanted to give her a future where she could be reassured.
That person will always think far ahead.
Everything is so well thought out.
Walking through the small courtyard and about to study, Li An seemed to remember something, he looked at Xia Ruan thoughtfully: "Cousin, why didn't you play against Eighteen just now?" If you make her ugly, she won't be able to raise her head in front of me in the future, and I tell you that her mind is too dirty. ”
The confidence that Xia Ruan spoke just now, Li Ang admired it very much.
His cousin was a great man.
Xia Ruan looked at Li An and stopped: "Let her make a fool of her?" ”
"yes, you should make a fool of her." Li An frowned, "However, you will be merciful, is it because?" ”
Xia Ruan blinked: "I'm not merciful, but my chess skills may indeed be inferior to hers, why should I let her give me a chance to make a fool of myself?" ”
Ang Lee: "......" (to be continued......
