Chapter 597: Stalemate

Geng Xiwu obviously had just come back from outside, and he hadn't had time to change out of his court clothes, his face was cold, and his thin lips were pursed into a straight line. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info He probably didn't expect to see Lan Xi here, the look of surprise in his eyes flashed away, but in just a moment, he returned to the ancient well without waves, just looking at Lan Xi silently.

Lan Xi didn't know why, he was a little nervous, and bit his lower lip, so he pulled the corners of his mouth far-fetchedly, and said, "You...... You're coming to see your father? As soon as the words came out, Lan Xi couldn't wait to throw himself in the ear, he couldn't ask such a stupid question if he didn't have anything to say, he was at the door of the Jingbei Hou study, he didn't come to see the Hou Ye, he couldn't be here to pick her up, right? What's more, since it was their husband and wife who had an awkward quarrel, it didn't make sense for Hou Ye to only talk to her daughter-in-law, but let his son go!

She was so annoyed that she couldn't do it, but Geng Xiwu didn't seem to care at all, his eyes were deep, and he paused for a little longer on her emaciated, haggard face and the dark shadows under her eyes, and then "Hmm" counted as an answer, that is, he took a step, went straight past her, and pushed the door in.

The door closed again, hiding Lan Xi's concerned painting and people behind it.

When Lanxi returned to Qingpingju, he called Fangcao, "You go to the kitchen and ask Hua'er to stew a cup of chicken soup for the prince." ā€

Naturally, the herb should have hurried away.

Mother Qin on the side listened to it and said overjoyedly, "Madam, this is?" ā€

"The Marquis called me over...... He's right, this husband and wife have an awkward quarrel, and someone has to bow their heads first. You can't go on like this forever. Lan Xi said as he lowered his head and gently stroked the summer shirt he had just made, a faint gray-blue, much more elegant than the color he usually wears, embroidered with pine needles and cranes, "I don't know if it fits." ā€

Mother Qin was full of smiles when she heard this, "Madam has finally figured it out, it's really good." ā€

"I'm sorry to worry my mother." Lan Xi's smile was shallow, but his eyes were really sincere. These days, she has an awkward relationship with Geng Xiwu, how can this person from Qingping House not be uncomfortable!

At this time, Qin's mother still remembered the worries of the past few days, and smiled with a wrinkle on her face, "It's almost time for dinner at this hour, where is a cup of soup enough?" The old slave went to the kitchen to see what was delicious, and let the flowers make a few dishes that the prince liked to eat, and after a while, the lady personally sent it to the study and used it with the prince. The words fell, and without waiting for Lan Xi's reaction, he left in a hurry.

Lan Xi smiled slightly, and he didn't know if she bowed her head first, whether he appreciated it or not!

Taking this step, Lan Xi can be regarded as having mustered up courage. But at this moment, standing at the door of Geng Xiwu's study, just when she collided with him face to face, Lan Xi realized that she still overestimated herself. All these years of silence and calmness in front of him were useless, she was clumsy like a child who had made a mistake and had a weak heart, afraid that there would be nothing to hide under his gaze, so she could only unconsciously dodge.

"Master...... Is this going out? The smile was unconsciously a little far-fetched, and Lan Xi quietly controlled his breathing to keep himself from looking too nervous.

"Hmm." Geng Xiwu answered, his deep gaze quietly swept over her face, and then swept over the food on the tray in her hand, "You come, is there something wrong?" Or is there something to say? "There's no detour, as soon as you come, it's straightforward.

It was a very ordinary sentence, but only Lan Xi heard that there was a mystery inside, his face turned a little pale, and his smile could hardly be maintained, "If you are busy, go busy!" I didn't have much to do, I just watched the time and it was time for dinner, so ......"

Geng Xiwu's original rays of light that jumped under his eyes sank into the deep sea of the dark night, "I have something to go out, you can use it yourself!" When the words fell, he didn't look at her again, but took a step, passed her, and strode away.

At the moment when they passed each other, Lan Xi only felt a pain in his heart, and when he turned his head to look behind him, his back was slowly blurred in his eyes, wasn't it, as long as she refused to tell the secret one day, he would treat her so coldly one day?

"Madam......" Fangcao saw that there were tears gathering in Lan Xi's eyes, and called in a low voice, but she couldn't say a word of comfort.

Lan Xi raised her handkerchief and pressed the corner of her eye, asked Fangcao to hand over the other tray she was holding in her hand to the little servant in the study, and then took her back to Qingping Residence.

Who knows, as soon as he stepped into the door of the main room, he saw Qin's mother walking out in a hurry, and when she saw her, her expression was relieved and she said, "Madam came back just in time." The old slave is looking for you! The ring next to Mrs. came and said that Mrs. had a seizure in the afternoon, and I was afraid that she was about to give birth. ā€

Lan Xi was stunned, raised her head, and saw a maid walking over to salute her. Isn't it the ring that Mrs. Lan San is waiting for? Lan Xi suddenly realized that this was her mother going to give birth. Lan Xideng's heart tightened, and he lost his square inch for a while, "Then why don't you go to the car...... No, I still have to prepare something...... "Just preparing things will inevitably take time, Lan Xiden was full of chagrin and guilt, blaming her, these days because of the awkward quarrel with Geng Xiwu, she completely forgot about her mother's approaching childbirth, she is really an unfilial daughter.

Mother Qin saw that she was so panicked, she sighed in her heart, after all, she was young, no matter how steady she was on weekdays, she still couldn't stand it when something happened, and while sighing in her heart, she was worried about it, and she grabbed her and said, "Madame don't have to worry, the old slave has already prepared the things in the morning, and someone has been sent to move them into the car, Madame can clean up and leave." ā€

Because of Qin's mother's words, Lan Xi calmed down, took Qin's mother's hand, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you Mom, with Mom here, I really don't have to worry about anything." There's no need to pack anything, let's go! ā€

The carriage sped away from outside the gate of the Jingbei Hou Mansion, and Lanxi brought Liuyan, Fangcao and Changrou, but left Qin's mother behind.

As soon as Lan Xi walked on the front foot, on the back foot, a mother-in-law in the Shen family's plum garden walked in quickly. "Madam, Mrs. Shizi personally brought dinner to Shiziye's study earlier, and it seemed that she wanted to show her goodwill, but Shiziye didn't seem to appreciate it, and didn't take a bite, so she found an excuse to go out of the house. And just now, Mrs. Shizi hurriedly went out of the house, as if she heard that she had returned to her parents' house. ā€

Shen Shi took a cup of tea to drink, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "I'll just say, this is amazing, isn't that what it is like if you get your hands on it?" Look at the greasy energy when you first got married, it's only been a few days here? What a slap in the face for yourself! ā€

"Isn't that just right? There is no need for Mrs. to take action, their husband and wife have already separated from their hearts, and in the future, there will only be benefits for us. Shen's mother was also laughing on the side.

Shen's smile was two points more satisfied, "Mom will run it herself!" Such a great opportunity, if you don't know how to grasp it, don't blame me for not helping her. ā€
