As soon as Xia Xue'er returned to the room, she went into the study, opened the secret pavilion and walked in. A quarter of an hour later, he took out a golden silk nan wood pattern flower box and put it on the table. I saw her stretch out her hand and stroke the box slowly back and forth along the pattern with her fingers, her eyes were empty, and her spirit was a little trance.

"Miss? Miss! ”

"Huh?" Xia Xue'er came back to her senses and looked up at Cuizhu suspiciously.

I saw that Cuizhu was very uneasy, his eyes were still full of worry, and he asked softly, "What's wrong with you?"

Xia Xue'er was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and replied, "It's nothing!" Then he opened the lid of the box like he was fine, took out the ancient book, looked at the seal handwriting on the cover, and then put it back in the box and carefully closed the lid.

"Cuizhu, you can send it to Su Gongzi."

"Yes."

Looking at Cuizhu's figure of going out with the box, Xia Xue'er suddenly chuckled in her heart, feeling that somewhere in her was also packed into the box and taken away together, empty.

When she took out the box, she felt a strange throbbing in her heart inexplicably, and couldn't help but reach out to touch the patterns on the lid of the box, but as soon as her fingers touched those ancient lines, a sense of familiarity spread along her fingers to her whole body, as if ...... This box has a lot to do with her......

Qiu Ju saw Xia Xue'er sitting motionless, frowning as if she was thinking about something. He turned his head to look at Xia Qiaohui, who was running back and forth with a kite in the courtyard, bit her lip, and carefully reminded Xia Xue'er: "Miss, Aunt Li is still waiting for you in the side hall!" ”

Xia Xue'er didn't seem to hear it, didn't pay attention to Qiu Ju, and only reached out to pour herself a cup of hot tea. Dongmei carried the tongs and dialed the charcoal fire in the brazier, the flames surged, the heat wave rolled, and the room was a little warmer.

Qiu Ju asked again, "Miss is not going to meet Aunt Li?" ”

Dongmei put down the tongs, looked up at Qiu Ju, who was full of anxiety, and complained: "Oh, Sister Qiu Ju, don't worry about it, if Miss doesn't go, they can come by themselves!" Besides, that Li Gongzi is obviously not good at coming, so why should the young lady bother with them! ”

"Are you talking about Brother Zongyang?"

The three of them were startled by this sudden voice, and turned their heads to see that Xia Qiaohui was already standing at the door at some point, and there was no kite in her hand. Dongmei was even more frightened, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she hurriedly turned her eyes to Xia Xue'er for help.

Xia Xue'er glanced at Dongmei helplessly, she had already told her to be cautious in her speech and behavior, beware of the ears on the wall, she was good, she didn't listen to a word! Then he looked at Xia Qiaohui and beckoned to her, "Why don't you play kites?" ”

Xia Qiaohui pursed her lips and said with an aggrieved face: "The kite ran away, it won't play with me anymore!" ”

"Good, don't be sad, let Qiu Ju take you out to find it, okay?"

"But my aunt said that there are many people in the house today, and I am not allowed to run out without her permission!" The more Xia Qiaohui spoke, the more sad she became, and at the end she dropped a few golden beans.

"Oh, Qiaohui doesn't cry," Xia Xue'er gently wiped away her tears, "How about sister buy you a new one another day?" ”

"But...... I'll just ...... Do you like that one, sister...... Go for me...... Talk to my aunt...... Good no good...... Good no good? Seeing that Xia Xue'er didn't speak, Xia Qiaohui cried even more fiercely, and the sound of wow resounded throughout the room.

Xia Xue'er didn't want to see Aunt Li, she thought that she had already made what she said clear enough, and Aunt Li should also know her attitude, but she didn't expect that not only Aunt Li came to listen to Yuxuan today, but she also brought her nephew. Not to mention that there is no friendship between her and Li Zongyang, then Li Zongyang has never been to Xia Mansion before, even if he is a familiar person, he can't casually enter and leave the inner courtyard where the woman lives, this is the rule! But today, on this day when there are many people, Aunt Li suddenly led a strange man to Tingyuxuan, if someone sees it, even if they are innocent, she can't argue, it's really too much!

But seeing Xia Qiaohui's sadness crying, Xia Xue'er didn't feel good in her heart, so she had to raise the white flag and surrender, and persuaded softly: "Okay, okay, I'll go find my aunt, don't cry, I'm a little cat!" ”

Xia Qiaohui stopped crying, opened her eyes and asked, "Really?" It wasn't until Xia Xue'er nodded that she burst into tears and laughed, "Haha, my sister is the best!" ”

Xia Xue'er reached out to wipe away the remaining tears on her sister's face, touched her little face again, and advised: "Let Qiu Ju accompany you to find the kite first, it will be picked up when it is late, I will go and tell my aunt in a while, you can rest assured." ”

After watching Xia Qiaohui go out happily in the company of Qiu Ju, Xia Xue'er beckoned to Dongmei.

"What do you command?"

"You go to the plum garden to find the second brother immediately, just say ......" Xia Xue'er whispered in Dongmei's ear, Dongmei nodded and ran out of the room quickly.

It happened that at this time, Cuizhu sent the ancient score back, Xia Xue'er got up and said, "Accompany me to the side hall to have a look." ”

Cuizhu walked quickly to the cabinet, took out a plain butterfly wearing flower brocade fur cloak and carefully draped it on Xia Xue'er, making sure that she couldn't get into the cold wind, so she followed behind her.

In the side hall, Aunt Li was unsettled and restless, while Li Zongyang was leisurely, drinking hot tea and knocking melon seeds, the two formed a stark contrast, only chatting one sentence at a time, and many times they were silent.

Just when Aunt Li stood up and paced back and forth for the fourth time, Li Zongyang looked up at her and said impatiently: "Auntie doesn't have to be so nervous, my nephew has seen you stand up several times!" Let's sit down and warm up with some tea! ”

Aunt Li looked down at her nephew, who was not worried at all, sighed and said helplessly: "Zong Yang, you don't know, these three young ladies are no better than ordinary people, she is like being able to read people's minds, and she can't hide anything in front of her!" And she's a thoughtful person, no one can guess what she's thinking! ”

Li Zongyang drank all the tea in the cup, spit out a piece of tea leaves, smiled contemptuously and said, "Isn't it just a girl, how can it be so mysterious!" The aunt should have faith in her nephew, and the nephew is not an ordinary person, is she? ”

Aunt Li shook her head and muttered, "Hey~ What if she doesn't see us?" ”

Li Zongyang put down the teacup, stood up, pressed Aunt Li to sit on the seat with both hands, looked at her and said

"It's okay if you don't see her, we don't have to see her on this trip, right?"

As soon as the words fell, the door was pushed open, and at the same time, a voice that had made Aunt Li uneasy also came: "Since it's not to see me, I don't know what the purpose of the two of you are here?" ”

When Aunt Li heard this, she bounced up from her seat and looked at the door with some horror. I don't complain that she is so jealous of Xia Xue'er, not to mention that the other party is a noble general's daughter-in-law, and she is just a dispensable aunt, for now, her daughter Xia Qiaohui is quite loved by Xia Xue'er, and she often takes care of them, and Xia Xue'er has been deeply favored by the old lady since she was a child, and she is the only concubine, it can be said that most of her daughter's future is in Xia Xue'er's hands.

If it weren't for the fact that she thought that her waist would be able to straighten up after the Li family flourished, she wouldn't be willing to take such a big risk to help her nephew plan this plan! It can be said that for the sake of the Li family's glorious lintel, she blocked her and her daughter's qiē!

After Xia Xue'er entered the house, she completely ignored Li Zongyang, walked straight to Aunt Li, looked at her pale face and said, "Qiaohui asked me to ask my aunt for a permission, a permission to go out of the courtyard gate of Yuxuan," Xia Xue'er walked slowly around Aunt Li with light steps, and continued: "I don't know when I will listen to Aunt Yuxuan's courtyard gate to listen to my aunt's order. ”

When Aunt Li heard this, her originally pale face was even more bloodless, her forehead was sweating, and she explained hesitantly: "The third lady misunderstood...... I'm not...... That means! ”

"I don't want to guess what your Aunt Li means, and I don't have the heart to guess, if you do this for the sake of Qiaohui's safety, it's understandable, if there are other purposes, then Aunt Li should reflect on it, after all, not all people are as lucky as Aunt Bai!"

Aunt Li was completely stunned after hearing this, and sat directly on the chair. She could hear that Xia Xue'er was angry, and she had never seen her so angry. In the face of Xia Qiaoyun's murder and Bai Yining's frame, she was very indifferent, only today, she really looks like a king who holds the power of life and death!

Xia Xue'er glanced at Aunt Li, who was sitting in the chair, and felt a kind of resentment and disappointment that iron could not be made of steel. If it weren't for the sisterhood she cared about with Xia Qiaohui, if she didn't want to do anything to hurt Xia Qiaohui, how could she have forgiven Aunt Li three times and twice, even if she used Xia Qiaohui to trick her, she had never really been angry. She couldn't figure out how Aunt Li, who had always looked at the rules and regulations, was kind and weak, how could she regard her own daughter as Xia Xue'er's weakness, and use this weakness three times and twice to persecute her, and she used it so handy!

Fang Cai's scene was all witnessed by Li Zongyang, and he also saw his aunt's reaction to such a lost soul, but he has always been conceited and selfish, never taking other people's feelings and situations to heart, except for his own interests, there is nothing that can affect his thoughts, and there is nothing worth his energy to think about.

"The third lady really lives up to her reputation, she really combines beauty and wisdom, this frank and unrestrained feelings and vigorous and resolute approach really make me admire!"

Xia Xue'er glanced at Li Zongyang coldly, this person is really heartless, his own aunt is scared like that, not only does he not praise her at all.

"Isn't Gongzi Li going to appease his aunt?"

Li Zongyang smiled lightly, looked at Xia Xue'er and said meaningfully: "Auntie was just frightened by the third miss for a while, and it doesn't get in the way, what's more, isn't this the result that the third miss wants?" ”

Xia Xue'er sighed, because Aunt Li felt unworthy, fortunately, her thoughts were not focused on this room now, otherwise she would have fainted when she heard Li Zongyang's words! She probably thought that it was worth it to plan and work hard for herself! Pathetic, alas!

"Cher! Cher! Xia Xing's voice came from outside the house, and when he walked into the house and saw Xia Xue'er standing in front of him unscathed, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Xue'er stared at Xia Xing, Xia Xing nodded at her, and then turned her gaze to Li Zongyang, resisting the urge to tear him to pieces, and tried to pull out a smile and said, "It turns out that Brother Li is here, and I am still looking for you everywhere!" ”

Li Zongyang looked at the strange behavior of the brother and sister in front of him, and the second monk was a little confused for a while, and he was completely stunned!

Xia Xingyang raised the beautifully crafted painting tube in his hand and said, "How did you know that the third sister was going to hold an art exhibition?" If I hadn't found this famous painting that you asked the little guy to hide, I wouldn't have known that you were in the side hall! said, did you come for the third sister's treasured "Female History Atlas"? But you're going to be disappointed, that painting is already on display in the front hall, I'll show you there? ”

Then, before he could speak, Xia Xing pressed him by the shoulders and forcibly dragged him out of the room. Seeing Xia Xing successfully take Li Zongyang away, Xia Xue'er smiled contemptuously, "Fight with me, and don't see if you are qualified enough!" Then he looked sideways at Aunt Li, who looked sluggish, and sighed: "I dare to gamble so much if I am so afraid of losing, I am really a master who does not want to die." Then she shook her head and walked out of the room, where she had to clean up the hidden dangers that Aunt Li and her nephew had buried. Before leaving, he didn't forget to tell Cuizhu to say: "Send Aunt Li back, and tell her to rest well when she gets better, so you don't have to come out to be busy today." ”

Tingyuxuan, who was originally quiet, was already full of people at this moment, and there were more than a dozen sons standing in the courtyard, so even if Li Zongyang went out from Tingyuxuan alone, he would not leave the truth.

The people brought by the summer trip are all people who like to paint and collect, and they are now expressing their opinions around a picture scroll. They were so fascinated by the discussion that Xia Xue'er didn't notice it when she came behind her, and Xia Xue'er didn't disturb them, but stood there quietly and listened carefully.

"Such a long handscroll should be spread out from right to left. When you read it, you can only open it gradually, just like reading a comic book, after reading a paragraph, you can only read the next paragraph, and people can only see one exhortation story at a time, but ...... This one does open from left to right! ”

Xia Xue'er smiled lightly, and finally someone discovered the mystery! I was not in a hurry to speak out, but still listened patiently.

"That's true! I just noticed when you said that! ”

"It's a fake!"

"But he copied it so like! If you look at this line, it is called "gossamer drawing", which means that its strength is uniform and continuous; The second is to show that it is calm and complacent, such as flowing water, which is a very high skill! It's been a long time since I've seen anyone who can use the "gossamer" so smoothly! ”

"If Gu Kaizhi painted two "Female History Pictures" with different opening methods, it is not impossible!"

The crowd boiled again, and Xia Xue'er finally spoke: "It's indeed fake!" ”

Only then did everyone realize that Xia Xue'er had stood behind them for some time, and they all fell silent for a while, listening to her.

"There is no continuous storytelling in these nine stories, and each picture is a separate story scene. So I thought about changing the way I open it, so that I can create another kind of beauty from left to right, and it looks more comfortable. ”

Someone in the crowd asked, "Is this your copy?" ”

Xia Xue'er knew that only one sentence was not convincing, and she was not annoyed when she was suspected, but replied with a slight smile: "I have a habit of hiding my name in the background of the painting, you can look at it carefully." ”

Then Xia Xue'er saluted everyone and said, "I take the liberty to change, and I hope everyone will forgive me!" "After all, in the eyes of most people, it is disrespectful to the original author to make such a big change without authorization when copying, not to mention the masterpiece of Gu Kaizhi, who is still a painting obsession!

Hearing Xia Xue'er's answer, after some checking, the people who were still skeptical before were completely shocked, no one expected Xia Xue'er to be so good at such a young age. Even Li Zongyang, who has always been conceited, was shocked, he actually felt ashamed, whether he admitted it or not, he had been completely impressed by Xia Xue'er in his heart, what face did he have to leave here?

Xia Xue'er looked at Li Zongyang's lonely back, her heart was surprisingly calm, there was no resentment, no secret joy, maybe people's hearts will really get harder and harder.
