Chapter 145: Old Acquaintances Meet

Lingyu seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with Lingxuan, and when she mentioned her, she crackled and complained a lot, so that others didn't have a chance to interject, and even the ladies who were gossiping next to her pointed their ears to listen to her.

Linglong secretly hinted at her a few times, she didn't realize it, Su Lingxuan was not good after all, it was the Su family, and not only did she not have a good reputation, but the Su family would also suffer.

Lingfeng was smart, and suddenly pointed ahead: "Hey, Lingyu, look, isn't that your mother?" I've called you, come quickly. ”

Lingyu glanced over there: "Where is it?" Didn't my mother help the third aunt greet the guests? ”

"Really, I saw your mother calling you, there must be something, I don't believe you to ask."

Lingyu looked at her suspiciously, and although she didn't believe it, she still followed.

Linglong felt that there were too many people here, and it was inconvenient to speak, so he got up and said, "Lingxia, take me to visit the house, it's the first time I've come!" ”

"Good! In fact, we have only moved here for two days, and we are not very familiar with it, but this house has an advantage, that is, there is a peach forest in the backyard, just like our house in Jiangzhou, there are two small yards in the woods, and my mother said to leave one for you and the eldest sister. Second sister, let me take you to see it! ”

"Okay, there's Sister Lao!"

Lingxia helped Linglong to the back, and the Song sisters also followed, Lingfeng pouted, very dissatisfied with Linglong not calling herself, but she still followed her.

The size of this house is about the same as that in Jiangzhou, but the layout is much better, at least it looks more tasteful, and it is good to be able to take down 250,000 taels.

"Lingxia, how much did our house in Jiangzhou sell?"

"Hundreds of thousands of taels, right? I don't know. ”

"One hundred and fifty thousand taels." Lingfeng in the back definitely added.

Lingxia glanced back and said with a smile: "Sister Lingfeng, aren't you going to accompany the guests?" What are you doing with us? ”

"Who's following you? I'll go back to my own yard and what's your business. ”

Lingxia flattened her mouth. muttered in a low voice: "Hard mouth!" Second sister, let's go here, you see, there is a peach grove opposite the pool, and when spring blooms next year, you can come back to live and see the peach blossoms. ”

The sisters took people to the small courtyard in the forest, the layout was similar to the courtyard in Jiangzhou, and Linglong was happy to read it when she saw it. I think back to living in the courtyard in Jiangzhou for about a year. At that time, the eldest sister was still there, and I don't know how the eldest sister was?

A few people were resting and chatting in the courtyard, and it was almost noon. Zhihua hurriedly ran in: "Miss! ”

Her sudden voice startled everyone, and Linglong reproached, "What are you doing?" Something to say. ”

Zhihua's face was nervous and anxious, and he came over a few steps and whispered in Linglong's ear, and Linglong's face immediately changed when he heard this. Lingxia next to her looked at her curiously: "Second sister, what's wrong?" ”

Linglong turned his head to look at the painting: "Have you seen clearly?" Are you sure you're not mistaken? ”

"No, no, no. I don't know if I saw it, and Zhishu also saw it, it was Zhishu who asked the slave and maid to come in to inform you, so that you can be mentally prepared. There are too many guests today, so don't lose your sense of proportion later. ”

Lingxia blinked: "What's out of proportion?" What are you talking about? ”

Linglong held his forehead with one hand and closed his eyes to calm himself down. Why is this time coming? It's good if you're even a month early, why is this time coming?

Lingxia saw that Linglong didn't speak. Then he pulled Zhihua over and asked, "Hey, Zhihua, what did you say to the second sister?" Scare the second sister like this? Say it quickly! ”

Zhihua shook his head awkwardly: "Fourth Miss, it's really inconvenient!"

"What's inconvenient?"

Zhihua was embarrassed, and Lingyu walked in quickly: "Sister Linglong, let me ask you, did you have a fiancΓ© who was married in Jiangzhou before?" ”

As soon as she said this, several people in the courtyard were startled, and Song Qiao'er immediately retorted: "Sister Lingyu, don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing." ”

"Oh, it's not a question of whether I talk nonsense or not, people have come to the door! The commotion outside is all talking about this, oh, the third aunt asked me to come in and guard Sister Linglong, so that you don't go out for the time being. ”

Lingyu came over and sat opposite Linglong in a few steps, and looked at her with a gossip on her face: "Sister Linglong, what's the matter?" Is this really fake? That Xue Gongzi looks good! ”

"What's so good? Isn't it the landlord of the land in the Jiangzhou area? Lingfeng walked in from the gate of the courtyard without saying a word.

"Hey, Lingfeng, can you speak normally? It's always yin and yang, yin and yang, you haven't learned the advantages of your aunt at all, but you have learned most of the temperament of your aunt's family Lingxuan, I really doubt that you are the wrong baby? ”

"Stinky girl, what nonsense? Okay, am I or your cousin? ”

"My cousin has to look like my cousin, and if I want to be like Lingxuan, it doesn't matter if I recognize it or not."

"You ......"

"That's it!" Linglong's mind was very chaotic, and he was even more upset when he heard the two arguing.

"Zhihua, accompany me into the room, I want to rest." Linglong was helped into the room by Zhihua, and the remaining ladies looked at each other.

Lingyu pouted: "Look, as soon as you came, you made Sister Linglong angry!" ”

"You don't want the wicked to sue first, you can't figure out the situation and still quarrel here, it's terrible to have no self-knowledge."

"I can't figure it out, don't you know? What do you say happened to Sister Linglong's fiancΓ©? ”

"What's so strange about this, she doesn't have more than one fiancΓ© reads;."

"What! More than one! You...... What do you mean? Lingyu and Song Qiao'er all widened their eyes.

Lingfeng raised his chin proudly, and said: Want to know? I want to know and beg me!

Lingyu and Song Qiao'er were itching, chasing Lingfeng and asking, Lingxia said: "Forget it, I'll talk about it, it's not an unsightly thing." ”

Lingxia is a cheerful person, and she said everything about Linglong's three marriages in Jiangzhou, which made Lingyu and Song Qiaoer dumbfounded, and Song Qiaoer frowned slightly: "If Sister Linglong has been married in Jiangzhou, she really shouldn't come to the capital to get married, this matter will reach the ears of the Liang family, I'm afraid I can't give up!" ”

Lingxia's eyes widened: "Sister Qiao'er, you say the same thing?" The life and death of Xue Gongzi is unknown, and the Xue family also agreed to give up the family affair, this family affair is equivalent to retiring, why can't my second sister get married separately? ”

"Sister Lingxia, don't be angry. I just think according to the idea of ordinary people, in the capital, even if the husband who has not passed the engagement suddenly dies, the surviving party will have to wear filial piety for a year before he can remarry. ”

After several people looked at each other, their faces were not very good-looking, Linglong had been engaged to Liang Chenjing for less than half a year since the bad news of Xue Gongzi came to behold, and under normal circumstances, it was normal to be criticized. Linglong himself does not deny this. In fact, she also felt a little sorry for Xue Gongzi in her heart.

If Xue Gongzi could come to him to find him when he married Liang Chenjing, Linglong felt that he would definitely follow him without hesitation, but now it was different. Not to mention that he has married into the Liang family, the most important thing is that he has feelings for Liang Chenjing.

If you want to say who is more important, Xue Gongzi or Liang Chenjing, Linglong closed his eyes and thought about it carefully, Xue Gongzi's appearance was already blurred. I only remember the heroic appearance when he stood on the top of the peach tree on the slope and shouted to himself, and he shouted to himself: "Second Miss." If I help you pluck the peach blossoms, you will marry me!" ”

This sentence has always been in Linglong's heart, and it is the best memory, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life.

And Liang Chenjing. When I thought of him, his handsome face and angular facial features were clearly visible, and Linglong could even feel his breath as soon as he closed his eyes. I will also blush and heartbeat.

She understood that she was moved by Liang Chenjing, this was really tempted. It's not a whim, although I'm sorry Xue Gongzi, but ...... Alas! Linglong sighed lightly, so entangled!

"Knowing the painting!"

"Yes, miss, the slave is here."

"Have you seen Xue Gongzi?"

"Well, I see!"

"How is he?"

"It's not bad, but it looks much thinner and haggard than before."

"How did he get here?"

"Didn't the lord and the lady greet the guests at the door? Xue Gongzi brought a lot of gifts to congratulate, and the old man and lady were frightened at that time, but the person who came was a guest, and in front of so many people, the old man could not refuse, so he could only reluctantly accept the gift and let him enter the house. ”

"How did he claim his identity?"

"He called himself a nephew, and he didn't say anything, but when he entered the mansion, he asked someone to inquire about you, Miss."

"Really?" Linglong whispered and lowered her eyebrows and was silent, Zhihua looked at her eyebrows and thought about it:

"Miss, don't worry, there are not many people who know Xue Gongzi, as long as he doesn't say it, no one will know about him, and he won't mention the past."

Linglong shook his head: "There is no impermeable wall in the world, and this matter will spread sooner or later." ”

"That'...... That ......"

Linglong pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and said: "He came all the way to find me, I shouldn't hide and not see, Zhihua, you go, please Xue Gongzi to come to the backyard." ”

"Huh? Miss, don't you, now the guests almost don't know about it, you saw Xue Gongzi, didn't you make this matter public? What if my uncle finds out about ......? ”

"He knows."

"Huh?"

"Liang Chenjing knows, I want to see Xue Gongzi, go and invite."

"Miss!"

"Please!"

"Oh, miss, don't embarrass the slave maid, Madame obviously asked the slave maid to come in and report the news and guard you!"

"If you don't go, I'll go in person, will you go?"

Zhihua frowned and looked sad for a long time, "That's ...... All right! Miss, Madame blames you for helping me speak! ”

"Okay, let's go!"

When Zhihua came to the front yard, he unexpectedly found that Xue Gongzi was with his aunt Liang Chenjing, she was so frightened that she almost fell, and Zhishu came out of nowhere to help her: "Why did you come out?" Miss? ”

"Miss asked me to invite Xue Gongzi over, she wants to meet and talk to Xue Gongzi."

"How's that going to work? My uncle is still here. ”

"Miss insists on seeing it, and I can't help it!"

"That's not good, Madame told me to watch Xue Gongzi specifically and don't let him go to the backyard."

"But Miss said that she didn't invite Xue Gongzi in, so she came out to see Xue Gongzi in person."

Zhishu's face turned white when he heard this, and the two looked at each other for a long time before turning back, but there was no trace of Xue Gongzi, leaving Liang Chenjing standing there alone.

Zhishu Lala Zhihua said in a low voice: "That's it, I'll guard my uncle, and you take Xue Gongzi to see Miss." ”

"Huh? Why do you want to guard your uncle? ”

"Fool, do you want your uncle to watch Miss Xue with him?"

"Oh, good!"

Zhishu came to Liang Chenjing and blessed his body: "Uncle, the second young master is in the study, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”

Liang Chenjing glanced at her and said lightly: "Don't go." ”

"That'...... Would you like to talk to someone you know? ”

"No, no."

The two were talking, and a big red figure at the door came in with a fan: "Brother Chenjing, why don't you call me here?" ”

This person doesn't have to say that it is Shangguan Yan, who loves beauty, Zhishu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, now it's okay, with him accompanying his uncle, at least he won't be bored.

At this time, Zhishu had quietly taken Xue Gongzi into the backyard.

When they came to the Linglong courtyard, Xue Gongzi was stunned when he saw a large group of young ladies in the courtyard, stood at the door and arched his hand: "It's really inconvenient to enter the door below, can you bother the girl to ask the young lady to come out?" ”

"Okay, you wait."

After a while, Zhihua helped Linglong out, and as soon as the two raised their eyes, they saw each other, and they couldn't take their eyes off it, just watched silently.

He is indeed much thinner and haggard than before, is it due to fatigue and rushing? Or was it tortured by bandits?

Linglong slowly walked up to him and blessed his body: "Xue Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”

Xue Gongzi returned the salute: "Long time no see, Second Miss, how are you doing?" ”

Linglong nodded: "Yes, you?" ”

"I ...... Been looking for you. ”

Linglong's heart skipped a beat, her cheeks were slightly red, and the bunch of little girls in the courtyard who were watching the play all widened their eyes and gasped.

Their discussion was too harsh, which made Linglong very awkward: "Xue Gongzi, let's ...... How about walking? ”

"Okay."

The two walked into the peach forest side by side, and the group of little sisters in the courtyard also followed.

Linglong glanced back, sighed secretly in his heart, turned his head and whispered a few words to Zhihua, Zhihua hesitated a little, and finally let go of Linglong and went back to stop the group of young ladies and did not allow them to follow.

Finally cleaner, Linglong turned around and looked at Xue Gongzi: "Xue Gongzi, what happened when you encountered the bandits?" ”

Xue Gongzi glanced at her and sighed: "I came to give you a dowry gift that day, but I was robbed by thieves on the way to the mountain, and most of my entourage were killed, they left me alive, and they wanted to ask my Xue family for more ransom."

I was confined to the hilltop hut for more than half a month, but fortunately I met a kind lady who left a small knife when bringing me food, and I sharpened the knife all night before grinding a hole in the window to escape. ”

"Why didn't you come to me when you escaped?"

"On the way out, I overheard them talk about something, so I didn't dare to go home or look for you."

"What?"

Xue Gongzi hesitated slightly, stopped and said: "Second Miss, I know that you are now married, and the Liang family is in great power, so I can rest assured that you are not in danger, he ...... Is it good for you? ”

Linglong's face turned red, this question was really embarrassing, she lowered her head and whispered, "It's okay." ”

Xue Gongzi looked at her side face and thought slightly, "Second Miss, what if...... I found you before you got married, will you come with me? ”

Linglong looked up at him and quickly turned away: "It's already in the past, what's the point of asking this?" ”

Xue Gongzi felt a pain in his heart, but a voice in his heart chased him and asked, "Now now?" (To be continued)
