At this time, a maid came in to find the Song family, and Jue Fei was also sent away by the Song family.

Linglong in the room sat quietly in a wheelchair and looked at the wooden door in front of her, Gui Ying next to her was very worried, and she could hear the words of Song and Juefei clearly.

Gui Ying had also heard about Xue Gongzi's affairs, she knew that Miss had a good impression of Xue Gongzi, and whenever she heard the news of Xue Gongzi, Miss always reacted differently, but she didn't expect that the second young master would bring Xue Gongzi's news at this time, Miss Don't be moved by other thoughts because of this.

"Miss, you ......"

"Gui Ying, I want to paint."

"What?"

"I want to paint."

Gui Ying paused: "Okay, Miss, wait a minute, the slave will help you prepare." ”

Gui Ying pushed Linglong to the desk, laid out the rice paper, and took out the carbon rod that had been prepared a long time ago and put it aside.

"Gui Ying, you go out, don't bother me if it's okay, I want to be alone and quiet."

Gui Ying looked at her side face, the young lady obviously had a sad expression, could it be that she was thinking about that Xue Gongzi? What can I do? In case the second son or Mrs. knows that it is not easy to explain, the young lady is going to get married, how can she be distracted?

Gui Ying hesitated for a long time, wanting to persuade Linglong but didn't know where to start.

Looking at Linglong again, she quickly put down her pen and sketched a prototype of a peach tree on the paper, and then dotted the branches with petals.

Gui Ying felt strange, does Miss like peach blossoms? I haven't known that she has this preference for a long time?

The door creaked, Gui Ying turned around, and saw Zhihua coming in, Gui Ying made a silent gesture for her, and Zhihua blinked inquiringly? Gui Ying pointed to Linglong, and Zhihua nodded. She tiptoed over and stood behind Linglong to take a look, and opened her mouth wide in surprise when she saw the flourishing peach blossom tree.

Gui Ying was afraid that her voice would affect Linglong, so she pulled her out of the house to cover the door first.

"Is there something wrong? Knowing how to paint? ”

"No, Madame said that she was going to have lunch, and when the master and they came back from another trip, they would start the meal. Sister Gui Ying, why did Miss suddenly think of Xue Gongzi? ”

Gui Ying was stunned for a moment: "How do you know that she remembered Xue Gongzi?" ”

Zhihua grinned: "You don't know this, do you know why my young lady likes Xue Gongzi?" ”

"Why?"

Zhihua pretended to be mysterious and smiled: "Because of peach blossoms." ”

"Peach blossom? Does Xue Gongzi have anything to do with Peach Blossom? Is he of excellent looks? Face like a peach blossom? ”

"No, no! In terms of appearance alone, Xue Gongzi is really not as good as Liang Er Gongzi. But ......"

"Stinky girl! Don't sell it, finish it all at once! ”

Zhihua peeked into the room, and then grinned: "But Xue Gongzi has everything we want from our young lady." Our lady said that she wanted the peach blossom that bloomed most luxuriantly on the top of the tree halfway up the slope.

Xue Gongzi didn't say a word, and in a few moments, he went up the tree and cut off the top of half of the peach tree, and presented it to Miss with both hands, and then said: Second Miss, your request has been done. If you accept the gift, you will marry you, and you will send someone to propose marriage tomorrow. ”

Gui Ying thought for a while: "It's just cutting off half of a peach branch." It's not very special! ”

"Oh, Sister Gui Ying, don't you think it's ...... Very ......"

"What?"

"Heck, it's just that it's romantic that a man is willing to do anything for you. Yes, Miss said it's romantic, you know? ”

Gui Ying frowned: "Just take a peach blossom branch." Where is the willingness to do anything? If it were our second son, we wouldn't have to go up the tree at all. Within ten zhang, a flying knife can take whatever it wants, and it's easy. ”

"Oh, you, Sister Gui Ying, did you practice martial arts and dizzy your head, don't you know that unmarried girls like Xue Gongzi?"

"Huh? Says who? I just don't like it. ”

Zhihua's cheeks twitched, I really don't know how to say good things to her, it feels like a chicken and a duck!

"Forget it, Sister Gui Ying, look at Miss, I'll go to the kitchen to help!"

Zhihua muttered as he walked: "Why don't you understand, how can such a romantic thing be something that ordinary people are willing to do?" ”

Gui Ying stood thoughtfully at the door for a while, until a crisp voice came out: "Hey, is the second sister here?" ”

Gui Ying turned around and saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old delicate girl standing in front of her, looking at her red lips and white teeth, melon seed face and cherry mouth, she was a little similar to Miss Linglong, this should be the third lady, it seems to be called Lingfeng, right?

Gui Yingfu Fushen: "Yes, Third Miss. ”

"You're new here?"

"The slave maid came to the young lady after she arrived in Beijing."

"My second sister bought you? How much silver was spent? ”

Gui Ying felt uncomfortable, although she knew that she was a slave, but she was the son of the Liang Mansion, and she had been serving by the eldest son's side, plus her grandfather was a housekeeper, so the treatment in the Liang Mansion has always been good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is equivalent to half a month of master.

Now even when she comes to Linglong's side, Linglong treats her with great courtesy, and has never been treated as a general person, but now she is treated as an ordinary little maid who is bought and sold like goods by a new little girl, how can Gui Ying suddenly adapt to it?

"Third Miss, do you have something to do with my young lady?"

"Can't you look for her if you're fine? I'll see for myself. Lingfeng suddenly retreated from the door and ran a few steps behind Linglong, Gui Ying chased after him, it was too late!

Lingfeng suddenly exclaimed loudly, and there was a little ridicule or schadenfreude: "Ah! Second sister, aren't you about to get married? Why are you still thinking about your old lover? ”

Linglong's hand that was about to put away the pen trembled, and inexplicably made a horizontal stroke on the person on the painting, as if he was cut off with the peach tree.

Linglong was shocked, frowning and staring at the inexplicable stroke on the painting, but Lingfeng next to him smiled and said: "Okay, second sister, you don't abide by women's morals, you are obviously going to marry Liang Ergongzi soon, but you are thinking about Xue Gongzi, what if Liang Ergongzi knows that you say that he will do?" Hee-hee, I'll sue my mother! ”

"Third Miss! Three Misses! Gui Ying hurriedly chased after her, but Lingfeng ignored her and ran out in a hurry.

Gui Ying couldn't say anything in her heart, she stood helplessly at the door for a while, and then returned to the room to see Linglong carefully rolling up the painting.

"Miss, come on, slave!"

"It's okay, bring me a painttube."

Linglong sealed it with his own hands and handed it to Gui Ying: "Help me put it away, I will take it with me when I get married." ”

"Huh? Miss, this ......"

Linglong raised his eyes to look at her and chuckled, "It's just a painting, you don't think I'm not a woman, right?" ”

"No, no, no, slave doesn't mean that, it's just ......"

"Then don't talk about it, just help me put it away."

Gui Ying saw that Linglong seemed to care about this, so she didn't dare to disobey, and pushed her out after putting it away: "Miss, I just learned that the painting came to inform you, lunch is coming soon, and everyone wants to have a reunion dinner at noon." ”

"Hmm!"

Gui Ying looked at the top of Linglong's head, opened her mouth several times, and arrived at the door of the upper room in the blink of an eye, Linglong glanced inside, and saw that there were already two large tables in the room, and there were already a lot of dishes on them, the second aunt with Lingfeng, the third aunt with Lingxia and the fourth aunt were already waiting inside, the mother was still in the courtyard, and the father had not yet come.

Linglong planned to stay outside the door for a while, and wait for his father to come before going in.

Lingfeng saw her and grinned: "Second sister, come in!" Come in! ”

Linglong frowned and glanced at her, her expression obviously wanting to reveal her shortness.

Linglong hesitated slightly, there are few people in the room now, so it is better to make it clear to her first, so as not to make it more ugly when there are more people later.

Gui Ying pushed her to the second aunt and stopped at Linglong's signal, Linglong smiled at Lingfeng: "What's the matter with the third sister?" ”

"Second sister, you just drew a portrait of Xue Gongzi, right?"

"Yes!"

Lingfeng grinned and said to the second aunt: "Auntie, look, I'm not wrong, right?" The second sister was obviously thinking about Xue Gongzi in her heart! ”

The second aunt frowned slightly: "Lingfeng, don't talk nonsense." ”

"I don't have anything to say, the second sister herself admits it!"

The second aunt turned her eyes to look at Linglong, and after a little hesitation, she still persuaded: "Second Miss, the Liang Mansion is a good family, and it is a relative of the emperor, the son of the Liang family is noble, even if he marries the princess, it is not an exaggeration to marry the princess, it is your fate for the second miss to marry into the Liang Mansion, and please cherish the second miss very much." ”

The second aunt's words were mostly persuasion, without half a bit of ridicule, knowing that Linglong after she was born did not have the hostility towards her before, and if you think about it carefully, this second aunt is not bad.

So, Linglong said respectfully: "The lesson of the second aunt is that Linglong remembers that Linglong does not think about him when he paints a painting of Xue Gongzi, but just remembers the old knowledge." It is said that the dead are the greatest, and it is not an exaggeration for me to remember him occasionally, right? ”

"Of course, if that's all there is to it."

Lingfeng said, "Who said that Xue Gongzi is dead?" He was just captured by the bandits, and later the officers and soldiers exterminated the group of thieves, and also searched the mountain, but there has been no news of Xue Gongzi, he must still be alive.

Second sister, if Xue Gongzi is alive and comes to you to get married, what will you do? ”

Linglong was stunned, she had never thought about this problem, it was possible for Xue Gongzi to live, but he was far away in Jiangzhou, how could he suddenly come to the capital to find me to get married? But what if he really came?

Linglong's mind came to the situation of Xue Gongzi picking peach blossoms, and then jumped out of Liang Chenjing's appearance of being injured for himself, and the faces of the two were changed in her mind, if she really wanted to choose, she really couldn't choose.

Lingfeng grinned, leaned over and said, "Second sister, let's do it, if Xue Gongzi comes to you in the future, you will give me your second son Liang, okay?" ”

"Feng'er!" This sudden reprimand was at the door, everyone raised their eyes, and when they saw when their father Su Bingren was standing at the door, he glared at Lingfeng with a cold face:

"What nonsense? That's your second brother-in-law, how can you say that you can let it? You are not young anymore, and as soon as your second sister's family affair is over, your father will immediately help you find a good family to marry. Until then, keep your mouth shut and don't talk nonsense. ”

Su Bingren said very harshly, but Lingfeng secretly stuck out his tongue and didn't take it to heart at all.

Taking advantage of Su Bingren's efforts to pick up the old aunt and the ghost mother-in-law in the backyard, Lingfeng whispered in Linglong's ear: "Second sister, don't forget, this is the agreement between the two of us!" (To be continued)
