Chapter 125: Medium Scheme
The summer day is like a doll's face, cloudy and sunny, one moment the sun is scorching in the sky, and the heat is unbearable, and the next moment it is dark clouds and strong winds.
The maid came in with mung bean soup to cool off, and before it was served, Dongmei waved her hand at her, "It's changed, it's cold." ”
Xia Xue'er heard the voice and raised her head from the book, but her eyes fell through the window and fell on the dark sky, and there was a faint worry between her eyebrows. The pressure of the sky is extremely low, and the row of green mountains as far as the eye can see is like a bridge connecting heaven, earth, man and god in ancient times, like the pillar connecting heaven and earth - Jianmu, only the hidden peak reveals a slight sense of difficulty. The junction of clouds and clouds curled up, revealing a dazzling skylight, but it could not stop the darkness from swallowing up step by step.
It's really a change!
"Pandan has entered the city?"
"No news has come yet."
Hearing such an answer, Xia Xue'er frowned slightly, and Shuang'er's deep smiling eyes unconsciously appeared in her mind, which always made her feel that there was a conspiracy brewing.
Irritably, he closed the scroll and stood up in front of the window.
The wind whistled and swept away the flowers that had bloomed in the courtyard, which had survived the rainstorm of the previous day. Palm-sized flowers roll out of the ground at most three steps away, while smaller ones are flying up and down with the wind with green leaves, and for a while, in the courtyard and corridor, you can see the remnants of flowers and fallen leaves everywhere, and the dilapidated scene makes people can't help but sigh.
The three or two maids took brooms and went to clean up against the violent storm, but Xia Xue'er heard a quick knock on the door at this time, and after a while, Li'er led a man through the corridor to the main house. Before she arrived, Xia Xue'er saw this scene through the window, although the man walked with his head bowed in a respectful manner, but just looking at his dark side face, it was very unfamiliar.
"Sister Dongmei!"
Li'er stood outside the door, poked her head out and beckoned to Dongmei, who was trimming the branches in the white porcelain vase in the house, and Dongmei put down the scissors, lifted her skirt and walked out.
"This son was sent by Young Master Zhuxuan, and he said that he had something important to know about Miss Zhuxuan, so please let my sister report it."
Dongmei was not in a hurry to reply to Li'er, but bypassed her with an inquiring gaze, boldly and carefully looking up and down at the man standing behind her. The man was not very old, about in his early twenties, with dark skin, wearing a dark blue robe, his long black hair was tied up, but he left a strand on his left forehead, covering half of his cheeks, and a scar looming at the corner of his eye, winding like a small snake, which was really a little terrifying, and he couldn't help but keep a heart in his heart.
"Did Young Master Zhuxuan send you?" Before Dongmei could report, Xia Xue'er was already standing behind her, and at this time she clearly saw the person in front of her, along with the scar at the corner of her eye, but she didn't think much about it, who hasn't left one or two wounds on the tip of the knife every day?
"Exactly."
The man nodded, Xia Xue'er glanced at Li'er on the side, and Li'er retreated in interest, and then she instructed Dongmei: "Show tea to Gongzi."
Dongmei quickly took the tea out, respectfully handed it to the strange man, seeing that the man did not accept the cup, Xia Xue'er hurriedly explained: "It is inconvenient to invite the son to sit in the boudoir, and please forgive the son, I will drink hot tea under this corridor!"
"Where, thank you for your kindness."
The man didn't seem to care, so he only smiled and took the teacup, put it under his nose and sniffed it. Well! It is worthy of being the granddaughter of the rich Jiangnan Zhao family, this tea is full of aroma, just smell it and the whole body is smooth and comfortable, like a spring breeze, and the tea drunk by the emperor in the palace is not as good as half of these three ladies!
The man's pleasant and enjoyable look made Dongmei have goosebumps all over her body, and after the man handed her back the cup, he turned around and went into the house to continue pruning the flower branches. Xia Xue'er always looked at the man with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she didn't seem to be in a hurry, but in fact, she was very eager in her heart!
"My son-in-law sent me here to inform the third lady that the things entrusted to me have been completed, and the young lady will be able to get her wish tonight!"
"When is it tonight?"
"Hey."
"When?" Xia Xue'er frowned slightly and looked at the man, this answer surprised her very much!
A hundred steps away from Tingyuxuan, Shuang'er carried a tray covered with a red cloth, but she was standing under a dense weeping begonia, hidden, and couldn't stop looking in the direction of Tingyuxuan, as if she was waiting for someone.
After a while, a man in a dark blue robe walked slowly, looking left and right along the way, and nodded appreciatively from time to time. Seeing this, Shuang'er glanced at his leisurely appearance, looked at no one around, and then walked forward quickly, grabbed the man's sleeve robe and disappeared into the woods on the side.
"How's it going?"
The man glanced at her very dissatisfied, but his attention fell on the tray covered with red cloth in her hand, and his eyes immediately lit up, and he changed his dissatisfaction, and directly reached out to uncover the red cloth. was dodged by Frost sideways.
"What about you? It can't be a goof, right?! ”
"Hey~ You're too underestimated! With me out of the horse, there is nothing that can't be done! The man looked at Shuang'er with disdain, and there was even a faint anger in his eyes! This trip didn't show his ability to fool people at all! Just a few words coaxed Xia Xue'er around, and it was not fun at all!
"Look at how well you said her before, I don't think that's it! Fooling children, no energy at all!! ”
After hearing this, Shuang'er was not in a hurry to explain, but the corners of her mouth hooked up a weird smile, "It seems that the person in the prison is not simple!" ”
The man didn't care what conspiracy she had, and no matter what the use of letting herself deceive the third lady was, now his appetite was caught by the things under this red cloth!
"What's this in your hand, why don't you let me see it?"
"It's just some of the things that the old lady gave to the fourth young master, what is there to see!"
This morning, Xia Xue'er had already spread all over the mansion, and the old lady specially rewarded the fourth young master with a lot of things to show her gratitude, and this was the last and most important trip in her hands. Obviously said that it was to comfort the fourth young master and compensate him for the grievances he had suffered these days, but in fact, it was not to appease Xia Xue'er, I really don't know what the old lady thought in her heart!
A flash of disdain flashed in Shuang'er's eyes, and then she bypassed the man in front of her and walked back to the main road, looking at the bad weather, it seemed that it was going to rain, and she still had an errand to do!
The man behind him shouted, "What did you promise me for?" ”
"There is a pavilion three miles outside the city, and she has been waiting for you in the pavilion for a long time!"
Shuang'er didn't look back, her steps stepped up, but her eyes flashed with excitement!
After tonight, there will be no one to rob her of the temple master again!
