"Nangong Yufeng, do you really like me? Some people have already said that you rejected the princess for my sake, I heard that King Li is also very sick, do you think that this matter will reach the ears of his old man, and make the old prince happy! Xi Yunjian's voice was always cold, but Xi Liang, who was standing on the side, heard the impatience and anger in it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info looked at the twitching corners of the mouth of the prince of Liwang who was sitting opposite, Xi Liang stepped back, wondering if he should find a place to hide first.

"Your young master is in a bad mood?" Yu Feng naturally felt the taste, and looked at Xi Liang on the side, "Do you know why?" ”

"This ...... The minion didn't know ......, "How dare Xi Liang say it?" The teacup in the young master's hand was about to break.

"Yufeng, why are you here? Let the master be easy to find! "Another master! Xi Liang's palms were sweating, this was the third prince who was famous in the capital, and the only princess of the emperor was a compatriot, and his temperament was similar. The preferences are even more strikingly similar, and even chasing the prince of Liwang is surprisingly consistent. The most unbearable thing is that this prince doesn't do much serious things all his life, and he likes to inquire about gossip in the mansion. And as long as anything is known by this person, it is equivalent to announcing it to the world.

As soon as he saw Xi Yunjian, he said, "Yunjian, I heard that your sister-in-law's marriage date with Wang Shaoyan has been set?" In the morning, someone saw Mrs. Wang leading the matchmaker out of the Hou Mansion, do you know what time it was? ”

Xi Yunjian glared at him, "If you weren't the prince, you would have gotten out of here by now!" He was annoyed when he thought about it, that Wang Shaoyan had never seen it, he had almost been bedridden all these years, and Yun Ting was still good when she married in the past? Mrs. Wang's old woman actually didn't think one Yun Ting was enough, so she had to pull another Xi Cui. Just such a sick tuberculosis sent out his two closest little girls, how angry he was.

The third prince didn't laugh angrily, "Look at you, you see, it's so uncontrollable, it's not like Xi Yunjian, who is calm and capable on weekdays." But do you know that the more you look like this, the more people can reverie about the marriage between the two of you? I inquired, and the Wang family also specially asked for a dowry maid from your family, is there really such a thing? They all said that the maid was not simple, and Master Huineng approved the fate, is it true? When to bring it out and let the master have long eyes. ”

Finally, the teacup in Xi Yunjian's hand was successfully crushed, Xi Yunjian got up and left, without even saying goodbye, Xi Liang hurriedly bowed to the two masters and ran out. The third prince was just about to complain to Yu Feng that this guy was rude, but Yu Feng slapped him on the table, as if he was annoyed when he saw him, and then shouted at Xi Yunjian, "Xi Yunjian is not going to be affected by the trivial things of those mothers-in-law and mothers in the inner house, we will have to compete in two months!" ”

"You see that he must be not ordinary to his sister, this girl he likes is about to marry a man who is about to die, where does he still have the heart to practice? Brother Nangong, you will definitely be able to take the top spot this time, the hussar general is already in your pocket, congratulations! "Although the third prince was lying on the table, his mouth still didn't stop." Having said that, that Hui Neng appeared and the **** was also present, and you also saw that Hou Mansion maid, right? How? But like a beautiful flower? ”

"A girl who hasn't grown any hair, what nonsense?" Yu Feng frowned, "You said that Mrs. Wang went to ask that girl for a dowry?" For some reason, he remembered the softness in his hand at that time, which should have been for the words of Master Huineng. Such a great reputation is not a good thing for a maid, and it is strange that he is a little worried......

"It's okay, it's just this month's thing, and when the bride enters the door, we have to go and have a good time, so we can naturally see it then." The third prince raised his head, stroked his hair, and made sure that it would not affect his image of Yushu Linfeng before standing up and sitting opposite Yufeng, "The imperial sister said that you were going to the barracks to avoid her, but is it true?" ”

"Say what? Just looking at the identity of the family, I am also very compatible with the princess, and the kind of woman I marry is no different to me. It's just that I am the queen of the door, if I just want to rely on the yin virtue of my ancestors to enjoy the glory and wealth, I don't want to. In any case, you should go out and break through, not to seek to be known to the world, but to have a clear conscience. Xi Yunjian told me these things the first time he finished fighting with me, and although I was not convinced, I still admired it tightly in my heart. Yu Feng said and looked at the tea in his hand, "The battle on the battlefield of Jin Ge Iron Horse has always been what I yearn for, and it is best to have a brother like Yun Jian with me, but it can only be a pity if I have no chance." But I really don't want him to be tied up by the love of his children, those women's things in the inner house can most dissipate the pride of men, just look at my father. ”

The third prince smiled and drank tea, what are you? Master, what I see is the real battle in the house, okay? The women look gentle and harmless, secretly can use any means, you look down on the arrogance in your bones, let the son never go to see with your heart, and when you see it clearly, you will know that the battle in the women's inner house is far more exciting than the men on the battlefield. But he wouldn't say it.

In the next few days, Xi Cui was almost watched by her wife, and she found a lot of books for her to read out of nowhere, and there was a special upbringing grandmother to teach etiquette, on the other hand, the real bride Xi Yunting ate and played all day long, and her original life was not disturbed at all. These days, Xi Cui is almost isolated, and Ximei is the only one who goes back and forth in and out of the yard. Madame seems to have deliberately asked Ximei to watch from the sidelines, but Xi Cui had to endure Ximei's eye knife every time.

Most of the truths in those books Xi Cui didn't understand, but Mrs. said that she just wanted her to endorse them, and she would naturally know how to use them when the time came. After seven or eight days like this, Xi Cui was finally released from the yard, but she was led to a group of old mothers by her mother, but she didn't give any orders, just stood aside and watched Xi Cui and this group of old mothers in a daze.

In the end, one of the old mothers spoke and asked Mama Xi Cui what she was doing, why she asked them to stop what they were doing and come here to see her. Mama didn't speak, only smiled at Xi Cui.

Xi Cui was also stupid, "Mama, you smile at me like this and make me afraid, what do you have to say." ”

Mama finally spoke, "You still can't see which of these people can speak?" Mama walked to everyone's side and looked at them one by one, "In the past few days, I have taught you etiquette and watched you read, and what you say in the book is often very different from what you encounter in reality, but it is the same and proven." Now it's just in our Hou Mansion, these are also the people of the Hou Mansion, you look so flustered, how will you deal with those strange but master-backed slaves in your uncle's family in the future? Madame knows that you are smart but still need to be tempered, but we don't have that much time, and it seems that you are too young...... You look, I'll just say it once. Mama said from the left one by one, "These people generally look like they are wearing the same clothes, but you only need to look at the shoes to know that this mother's soles are clean and not worn, and the upper is the best Su Jin, people must not be able to afford this kind of fabric, it can only be rewarded by the master, and it can be made into the upper of the master's reward, which shows that this person has a face in front of the master." Looking at this person's hands again, although you can see some old calluses, you can also see that they have been intensively cultivated over the years, because the other people's hands are obviously much rougher. There is also this one, you can see that her jacket is coarse cloth, but pay attention to her underwear leaking out of the cuffs......" Mama pointed to the mothers in front of her and said one by one, Xi Cui couldn't help but applaud in the end, and the heart was really an old man who had been with his wife for half his life, and his eyes were amazing. But these are things that need to be accumulated after long-term observation, how can she do it overnight?

Mama didn't ask Xi Cui to do anything after letting everyone disperse, but went to Madame by herself.

Looking at Mama's expression, Madame probably knew the result, how could a thirteen-year-old child learn those things? "Mama, do you think it would be better if I sent Ximei over as well? I have to guard against Wang Liu's thoughts, I was reluctant to accept Xi Cui's girl, but now that I know that Yun Jian has a mind, I want to protect her even more. ”

"Madame mean that the young master ...... Xi Cui?" There was obvious joy on Mama's face, Xi Yunjian was already twenty years old, and his wife had mentioned this matter to him openly and secretly before, but this young master actually refused. It's rare that he actually thinks about Xi Cui, and Xi Cui is also a good one, although her status is not high, she is also the girl that her young master has taken a fancy to for the first time, Mama is even more concerned about Xi Cui at the moment, no matter what, she can't let the Wang family pick up the cheap. In her eyes, her own young lady was wronged a lot when she married in the past.

"After Mrs. Wang passed the mansion that day, I deliberately left them in the main hall to talk, Qingzhi secretly glanced at it, and Yun Jian looked very reluctant to that girl." Although Xi Yunjian is not his wife's biological child, he has been raised for more than ten years, and originally their husband and wife had no son, and Xi Yunjian is actually no different from his own child.

"If that's the case, Madame will tell the old slave to follow, no matter how smart Xi Cui is, he is just a child, even if he sends Ximei away, he still doesn't know whether to send a helper or an enemy? In my opinion, Ximei is not a peaceful person, although the old slave's body bones are not as big as before, these eyes are still bright, what can I mention to them. Although Mama bowed her head and spoke so much in front of Madame, she still gave people the feeling of neither humility nor arrogance. has been with Mrs. for nearly 20 years, from the battlefield to the internal house disputes after the princess appeared, she watched the woman in front of her step by step from a vibrant bright girl to the current calm and introverted hostess of Houmen, and she has always seen the pain she has experienced physically and spiritually, and it hurts in her heart. This marriage is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface, but now that Madame doesn't say it, she naturally can't ask.

"I can't live with Mama, I originally promised Mama to take care of my life, but I repeatedly broke my promise." Madame looked at the old man in front of her, thinking that she was dignified Mrs. Huai'anhou, but now only the old man and children are left to entrust. "Mama just needs to remember that no matter what, Miss's dowry must be left to Yun Jian in the end, because Yun Jian is the last hope of the Xi family. If Hou Ye and I don't last for three years, remember to tell our two sons and daughters, don't take revenge, don't be resentful, just live well. ”

"Madame, don't worry, the old slave will definitely bring the words." Mama still kept her head down.

Madame looked at the old man, "Isn't Mama curious about what happened?" ”

Mama raised her head and met Madame's eyes, "Madame wants the old slave to know that she will tell you, and now Madame must have a reason why she can't say it, and the old slave will not embarrass Madame." "Is this a tacit understanding cultivated over more than ten years? Mama didn't speak, just stood quietly to the side, as before.

Knowing that she was also going to be a dowry, Ximei was extremely reluctant, and at first she was really jealous of Xi Cui being valued so much by her wife for a few days, but then I heard rumors that Xi Cui was likely to be a girl in the past, and the young master of the Wang family was simply a person who stepped into the coffin with one foot, how could he have a good life with him? Thinking about this, she balanced a lot, but she didn't want to ask her to marry with her in a few days, how could this be good?

Her mind has always been on the young master Xi Yunjian, but Xi Yunjian is too cold, no matter what she explicitly hints about, she is unmoved. It seems that if she wants to change her fate, she can only take risks.

When Xi Cui returned to Yufu Garden, there were only a few little girls accompanying Xi Yunting, but Ximei was nowhere to be found. She didn't know about Ximei's marriage now, and she didn't plan to go to her when she saw that Miss was fine.

I haven't seen Xi Cui for the past few days, and Xi Yunting almost wants to express all her thoughts these days with a hug, which makes Xi Cui almost lose her breath. I accompanied her to write, played chess for a while, and it was time for dinner. After serving Xi Yunting and finishing eating, she quickly fell asleep, and Xi Cui found that she hadn't seen Ximei all afternoon. After asking the little girl, I found out that Xi Cui was sick.

Thinking that they would not be together for a few days, and it was time to let go of any unhappiness, Xi Cui prepared some food and went to Ximei. Who knew that after calling for a long time, no one made a sound. When she turned back to the Fu Garden, she seemed to see Ximei's figure, how could she be in the young master's courtyard? Also in the study? Didn't you read it wrong? The young master hates others entering his study the most, and even Xi Liang can only enter when he is there.

From a distance, it seemed that Xi Yunjian and Xi Liang could be heard talking, and they should have just come down from the training ground at this time. The first thing the young master does when he comes back every day is to enter the study, in case he happens to run into Ximei...... Xi Cuiguang imagined that Xi Yunjian's angry face began to break out in a cold sweat, didn't Ximei kill herself?

The footsteps were near, and Xi Cui could be found no matter how she hid with the lantern, so she simply stood like this, waited for them to come over, and bent down to salute. "The young master is back......"

Xi Yunjian hadn't seen Xi Cui for a while, and just remembered that he should tell her that he had seen Qi Yu, so he asked her to follow Xi Liang into the courtyard. When he arrived at the study, Xi Cui's heart had already risen to his throat, Xi Liang pushed the door with both hands, Xi Yunjian followed in, and Xi Cui walked in the back. After the lights were turned on, Xi Cui hurriedly searched around, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after not seeing Ximei's figure. didn't want her to do this, but it attracted Xi Yunjian's attention, "What's wrong?" Tired? ”

"Ah...... Oh, sort of. Madame has been giving me a lot of homework lately, and I'm a little too busy. The young master said that he had something to tell the slave maid? Xi Cui saw that Xi Liang was busy putting away the bow and arrows he brought back, so he took the initiative to take off Xi Yunjian's coat, fold it neatly, and saw Xi Yunjian bend down to wash his hands and hurriedly hand over a clean handkerchief. Everything was done as naturally as if it had been done many times before. She didn't care, but Xi Yunjian's heart was inexplicably excited, in his opinion, the two of them acted like an exchange between husband and wife for many years, peaceful and comfortable. That's what he wants.

Of course, seeing all this, Xi Yunjian was far from the only one who was not at peace in his heart. Now Ximei, who is prostrate on the beam of the house and is covered by people, is quite angry, and the garden's eyes are eager to widow Xi Cui. The young master should be hers! And the hand that covered her mouth was quite unceremonious, not giving her the slightest chance to speak.

"Xi Liang, what do you see on Xi Cui's head?" Xi Yunjian quickly found the person on the beam, just in case, he called Xi Liang over first, let him block in front of Xi Cui, and then flew up one by one, Xi Cui screamed and looked up, but Xi Liang lowered his body to protect him. After following the young master for all these years, there is still a tacit understanding, at first he only suspected that there were others in the house, but after hearing the young master say such an inexplicable sentence, he concluded that his judgment was correct, there were indeed people.

After the two people on the beam came down, not only Xi Cui but also Xi Liang was shocked. Ximei lay on the ground with an embarrassed face, while the prince next to him stood aside with a look of distraction. Why haven't I heard of this hobby of lying on people's house beams before, in Xi Liang's heart, this kind of thing should always be done by people like the third prince.

"Ximei, this is the last time, you know my temper." A calm sentence completely drove Ximei out of her own world, Ximei naturally knew this, but this person is like this, isn't it? She got up, reached out and touched the dust off her face, glanced at Xi Cui coldly and walked out.

But her last look fell on Nangong Yufeng's eyes, what does this mean? Why did she give Xi Cui such a look, it was obviously hate, right? But this matter is clearly her own fault, right? But when he looked at Xi Cui again, he stood respectfully beside Xi Yunjian as if he was nothing. And Xi Yunjian's eyes have been staring at him since Ximei left, such a straightforward gaze, Nangong Yufeng can certainly feel it, but how to explain this matter? said that he was curious to know what books Xi Yunjian usually reads, or did he say that he was worried that Xi Yunting's marriage would affect him and wanted to find out what he really thought about this competition?

At this moment, although Xi Cui lowered his head, the thoughts in his heart did not stop. She can be taken by Mrs. Wang, and this matter is more or less the handwriting of him and his wife. It is difficult to say that it is difficult to get the praise of the prince of his courtesy to ascend to the sky, why do you praise yourself? It's basically similar to the mud, and the sentence he said at the time, "This son seems to be a slave who is not good-looking!" "She remembers it clearly, how can it be a compliment to the princess's mouth? Now he is squatting on the beam of the young master's house, and the original character of the dignified son is nothing more than that! Thinking about it, I couldn't help but cut it.

At this moment, the three men couldn't calm down......
