Chapter 102: Complaint
With a light or heavy trill, Situ Jiao's piano sound disappeared into the evening breeze.
Situ Kong felt that it was really worth it to not linger outside today until the third watch to return home.
This is the second time Situ Kong has heard Situ Jiao play the piano, and the first time was on the day Situ Jiao returned to the Hou Mansion.
At that time, he handed over Luqi to Situ Jiao, and Situ Jiao casually played the song "Flat Sand and Falling Geese", and he never heard Situ Jiao's piano sound again.
It's not that Situ Jiao didn't play the piano, but Situ Kong couldn't stand the old lady's nonsense, and avoided going out every day on the grounds that he was busy with errands.
If it weren't for the fact that he and Concubine Hui were on good terms today, the third princess went to the Hou Mansion and took the opportunity to relieve Situ Jin's confinement, Situ Kong would not have returned to the house so early.
Thinking that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival Riding and Archery Festival, and then thinking of Situ Jin, who has just been released from confinement, Situ Kong can't help but have a headache.
However, there are some things that have to be done no matter how headache he is, if he doesn't act like before, with Situ Jin's pampered temperament, he doesn't know how to make a stumbling block for Situ Jiao in his heart.
It's just a fight in the house, even if it is spread outside, others don't see it with their own eyes, as long as they bite it to death and don't admit it.
But if Situ Jin stumbles on Situ Jiao at tomorrow's riding and archery event, it will not only be Situ Jiao who will lose face, but the entire Hou Mansion.
Tomorrow, the saint, the queen, the queen mother and other harem concubines will almost all be present to watch the riding and archery competition, and it is disrespectful to the saint to lose their honor on such occasions.
Thinking of the edict passed on by the eunuch chief Chen De before returning to the house, Situ Kong was both proud and worried, proud that Situ Jiao had fallen into the eyes of the third princess for some reason. The third princess has already asked the saint for approval, and after tomorrow's grand meeting is over, she will take Situ Jiao into the palace and the third princess.
is worried about Situ Jiao's etiquette, after all, Situ Jiaoda has been sent out of the house since birth, and no one has ever taught her the etiquette in the palace.
But the holy order is difficult to do, not to mention that being able to get the eyes of the third princess far outweighs the disadvantages for Situ Jiao.
But what he was most worried about was Situ Jin. With her strong temperament. If you hear that the third princess took Situ Jiao into the palace to accompany her but did not pick her up, it would inevitably be another commotion.
If you want to suppress Situ Jin, you can only make the stakes clear to the old lady.
"Let's go. Go to Ci'an Garden. Thinking like this, Situ Kong couldn't sit still anymore, and it just so happened that Situ Jiao's piano never sounded again, and he couldn't hear it today. So he faced Lin Haidao, who was waiting beside him.
The time when the master and servant came to Ci'an Garden was almost close to the time when the old lady rested on weekdays, but today's Ci'an Garden was still brightly lit. There was also a sound of crying inside.
Hearing the woman's crying from inside Ci'an Garden, Situ Kong couldn't help but pause, and a trace of uneasiness and anxiety flashed on his face.
Listening quietly, Situ Kong quickly heard that the woman's cry came from Situ Jin, and this cry was not even a person who could not see Situ Jin. You can also hear that there is an obvious coquettish component.
Don't think about it, Situ Kong also knows that Situ Jin must be in order to achieve a certain goal of his own, and use fake crying to fool the old lady.
It's like this every time, but the old lady just eats her set.
A look of extreme helplessness flashed on Situ Kong's face. After straightening his face, he stepped into Ci'an Garden. Waved his hand to stop Xiu'er, who was waiting outside the house, and walked lightly to the old lady's house.
“…… Grandmother, Jin'er just likes that horse, but the ghost boy didn't let Jin'er touch it, and let the horse kick Jin'er to the ground...... Woo woo woo ...... "Standing in front of the door, the voice of Situ Jin's complaint in the house is very clear.
"Let my grandmother see it, but where did it hurt?" The old lady's voice was anxious and pityful.
"You see, here, here, and my waist...... Ouch, my waist is going to break. If Situ Jiao was here at this time, she would definitely vomit out the overnight meal after listening to Situ Jin's delicate voice.
"That ghost boy is really a troublemaker, only half a month after coming back, he made the Hou Mansion unsafe, let my Jin'er eat and be confined, and now he actually let a brute bully my Jin'er. Look at this arm is red, how she can get her hands, how she can get her hands! Maybe the old lady was holding a crutch in her hand, because with the old lady's angry scolding, there was also the sound of crutches hitting the ground, if Situ Jiao was in front of her, maybe she would have hit her with a crutch.
Situ Kong's solemn face finally broke again, he believed that there was moisture in Situ Jin's words, but he really didn't know how much moisture there was.
The time he had contact with Situ Jiao was too short, so short that it was only two hours together, but even if it was short, Situ Kong still had a certain certainty in his heart, that is, Situ Jiao was definitely not an impulsive person.
Although she is only ten months older than Situ Jin, she is much more measured than Situ Jin, how could she let the horse hurt Situ Jin.
It's just that the old lady's tone of pity doesn't seem to be fake, what happened in the house on this day?
Situ Kong looked at Steward Lin who was following him with a questioning look, and Steward Lin was also at a loss, he had been following Situ Kong today, and no one had reported to him what had happened between the two young ladies.
Situ Kong didn't get the answer he wanted, so he could only secretly complain about Situ Jiao in his heart, obviously he reminded Situ Jiao again and again, asking her to stay away from Situ Jin, obviously Situ Jiao personally promised that he would keep a distance from Situ Jin, but why was he told by Situ Jin to come to the old lady.
Situ Kong has been trying to get the old lady to eliminate her prejudice against Situ Jiao, but the effect is not good, and Situ Jiao also does something that makes the old lady even more disgusted.
If Situ Jiao knew what Situ Kong was thinking at the moment, she would definitely spray blood on his face.
It's not Situ Jiao looking for something at all, right?!
Situ Kong forgot at this time that blindly dodging was useless to Situ Jin, where was her ability to find trouble, and Situ Jiao could dodge if she wanted to?
What's more, her peers didn't think about hiding at all, otherwise today's incident would not have happened.
Situ Jiao doesn't understand that Situ Jin is the old lady's treasure, once she provokes Situ Jin, it is equivalent to stepping on the old lady's sore feet, but escaping is really not Situ Jiao's dish, is it possible to let her be a dignified concubine of the Hou Mansion being pressed on her head by a concubine to make a fortune?
It's just that Situ Kong is used to escaping and giving in to the old lady, so he has complaints about Situ Jiao.
He was afraid that Situ Jiao would offend the old lady and would be severely punished by the old lady, and he was even more afraid that the old lady would repeat the old story again and send Situ Jiao out of the house again.
What's more, there is a Situ Jin beside the old lady who can't wait for Situ Jiao to not exist at all! (To be continued.) )
