The reason why she has an impression of this girl is also because the other party often does some sprinkling and sweeping things in the pine and cypress courtyard. When Xie Ning went back and forth, he often met each other.

But now that she suddenly appeared in the Jade Courtyard, it was a little strange.

Xie Ning retracted his gaze, and although he was very surprised for a while, he didn't show anything on his face, and only secretly kept this matter in his heart. Sweeping his eyes without a trace, he found that many of the maids in the hall were not their original faces.

Xie Ning couldn't help but move in her heart, and just as she was about to think about it, a series of footsteps came from her ears, knowing that it was Xiang's coming, she immediately put away her thoughts, got up and saluted: "Xie Ning has seen my uncle." ”

When the words fell, she couldn't help but secretly look at Xiang. But seeing that she was wearing a red Luo painted gold color robe, with a heavy bun and high pull, her hair was decorated with eight treasure glazed peony hairpins, and auspicious clouds and purple hostas, her face was powdered, and her eyebrows were dotted with flowers.

And the makeup on her face, although it was carefully painted by her subordinates, between her eyebrows, she didn't know why she was a little listless. Even Xiang's voice revealed a touch of haggard and exhaustion for no reason, "Don't be polite." ”

Xie Ning was suspicious, but he concealed it very well on his face, and with a hook on the corner of his mouth, he got up and looked in the direction of Xiang with a smile.

Mo said that she gloated, since she entered Beijing, Xiang's family can be said to have harmed her a lot, and there were many festivals between the two, and now seeing her expression, Xie Ning naturally couldn't help but feel happy.

But she only smiled politely, and she didn't write this kind of affection on her face.

"Aunt Fang Cai sent someone to pass the word, saying that the old lady wants to keep you for two days," Xiang looked at Xie Ning with a faint expression, although there was no love on his face, but Xie Ning could read a little imperceptible disgust from her voice, "I was seriously ill a few days ago, and now that I have recovered from a serious illness, I am afraid that I have no time to work for you now." If you need anything, go to your second aunt. ”

It turns out that Xiang is sick. No wonder it looks so haggard.

Xie Ning's mind turned, but he only responded respectfully on his face.

The two dislike each other, and they are already tense with each other, so they naturally have no intention of getting along too much. After a few simple greetings, Xie Ning resigned from the Jade Courtyard with the excuse that Xiang's "body is inconvenient".

Then she went to see her second aunt, Ho. It didn't take much time to meet this time, but the atmosphere was very relaxed compared to the Jade Temple.

The He family is exquisite, Xie Ning was taken care of by her when he lived in the Hou Mansion before, and the two had a tacit understanding when they were in Fuwei Temple. You don't have to worry about anything when you talk.

What's more, Xie Ning has a very arrogant temperament, he is not a person who pays attention to foreign things, and naturally he does not have many requirements for any display and furnishings, and he politely refused He's kindness to send someone into the warehouse to buy things for her, Xie Ning sat in her courtyard for a while, and then returned to her small courtyard.

The small courtyard is still the same furnishings, because after Xie Ning moved out of the Hou Mansion, he will live for two days every month, and the courtyard is still very clean.

When Shainin and Gu Sui came back, the room had been cleaned by Mingshuang one by one.

It was noon. Because they returned suddenly, Xie Ning was worried that the Hou Mansion would forget to prepare a meal for them, so he planned to follow the old method and go over the wall to buy something at Aunt Li's stall in the Fang Market.

After she told her about the idea, Mingshuang didn't say anything about it, but Gu Sui couldn't help frowning and stopped: "I think Miss is too tolerant." It is because the young lady is kind and does not care about them that these servants will not look at us more and more. ”

Gu Sui's words are really wrong, she has always been very impatient, when did she get involved with good sex.

She doesn't care about these servants, first, because she feels that she is under the fence, and it is not good to be too public. The second is that because she has never been touched by them, she naturally doesn't want to worry about the other party.

I'm afraid that in Gu Sui's eyes, she can be related to the four words of good men and women.

Xie Ning heard this. He couldn't help laughing, shook his head slightly, and was about to deny it when there was a sudden sound of footsteps in his ears.

She couldn't help but stop talking for a while, but Mingshuang interjected at this time: "It's just to buy some food, and it doesn't hurt for Miss to go." ”

"But—" Gu Sui's eyes widened. She didn't expect Mingshuang to oppose her point of view at all, and her face was full of disbelief.

At this moment, there was a regular knock on the door of the courtyard.

Xie Ning made a look, and Mingshuang reacted very quickly to open the door, but when he looked up, he only saw three noodle mothers-in-law carrying food boxes.

"Miss Cousin, two girls, this is the meal that the second lady ordered us to deliver." I saw the mother-in-law who was the leader step forward and said respectfully.

Xie Ning was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that Mingshuang had already taken the food box from the three of them, so he only smiled at them.

Mingshuang carried the food box into the house, and Gu Sui followed behind her, happily setting up the dishes and chopsticks.

Xie Ning watched it funny, and forgot the entanglement in his heart for a while.

Seeing this, Gu Sui couldn't help but stop his movements, and said to Xie Ning very happily: "Miss, the second lady is really good, not only is everything thoughtful, but even the servants under her are very respectful. ”

Xie Ning smiled when he heard this, and after nodding slightly in agreement, he couldn't help but think about it: "Actually, it's not just the second aunt, most of the people in the Hou Mansion are still kind. ”

It's like my grandmother, Uncle Hou, Steward Hu, and Aunt Liang......

"Yes," Gu Sui hurriedly agreed, "And the Hou Ye and the old lady are also very good to Miss." Especially the old lady, I always thought that she was strict and rigid, but today I know that she was so kind to you, Miss. was so concerned about Miss's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even took the initiative to keep Miss live. ”

When she said this, there was still some palpitations on her face. Xie Ning guessed that she was intimidated by Liu's majesty, so she couldn't help but hook her lips and smile.

Mingshuang heard this, but suddenly his eyes flashed and he stopped the movements in his hand.

Seeing this, Gu Sui, who was standing beside her, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister Mingshuang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Xie Ning subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw Mingshuang's eyes flashing slightly, looking at him hesitantly, and he wanted to speak several times before stopping.

Her heart suddenly froze, and Xie Ning suddenly had a bad premonition, but after thinking about it again, she still couldn't help but ask out loud: "What's wrong?" ”

Mingshuang said slowly: "The slave maid has something to ask Miss, but she doesn't know whether to say it." ”

"Say it." Xie Ning's expression calmed down suddenly.

She'd rather she had learned the bad truth. I don't want to be kept in the dark by the people close to me anymore.

Mingshuang raised her head, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know if Miss thinks that the people in the Hou Mansion have a different attitude towards you?" ”

A word to wake up the dreamer!

Xie Ning suddenly came back to his senses, and when he looked at Mingshuang again, he couldn't hide the shocked look on his face.

Gu Sui was confused by her. At that moment, he said puzzledly: "Sister Mingshuang, what do you mean by this?" Miss has been in Beijing for half a year, and she is already very familiar with everyone in the Hou Mansion. Could it be that they will still change their faces? ”

Gu Sui has never had much contact with the master of the Hou Mansion, so he was surprised. But Xie Ning is different, so he can naturally immediately understand the meaning of Mingshuang's words.

As Mingshuang said. The people of the Hou Mansion treat her today compared to the past, and there is indeed a huge difference.

The He family is extremely attentive, and the Xiang family is forcibly disgusted, and Uncle Hou is still as concerned about her as ever, but her grandmother Liu's attitude is quite interesting.

At the beginning, for the sake of the peace of the Hou Mansion and in order to protect the reputation of the mother of the Hou Mansion of the Xiang family, it was the Liu family who first proposed to ask Xie Ning to leave the mansion and live separately, but now the words are still in the ears, but the other party has changed his attitude.

She didn't suspect that her grandmother was good to her, but the other party suddenly asked her to come back to live. There is a bit of backlash in itself.

Unless...... Unless the situation has changed!

Xie Ning's eyes flashed, and he didn't care about it for a while, but he only intuitively felt that Mingshuang was so sure that he must know something, so he looked straight at her and asked eagerly, "Do you know the reason?" ”

Mingshuang nodded, looking at Xie Ning with a pair of bright eyes, as if she didn't want to miss any change in expression on her face, and said directly: "The prince once sent someone to verify the matter of Fuwei Temple, and afterwards sent the evidence of Mrs. Jingyang's murder of Miss Jingyang to Gao Hou. The slave guessed. The change in the attitude of the people in the Hou Mansion may be due to this reason. ”

I see.

No wonder the Xiang family looks so listless, the Jade Courtyard is full of subordinates sent by Uncle Hou, and the grandmother no longer shy away from staying in the Hou Mansion.

Xie Ning suddenly remembered what Qin Feng had said to her before. Thinking that the other party had promised her to investigate the matter carefully, she was also hopeful at that time, but later Qin Feng didn't mention it, so she just thought that the matter was gone, so she didn't ask rashly.

But how could she have thought that Qin Feng would silently do so much for her.

Now Shainin finally understands the reason. After taking a deep look at Mingshuang, he could only leave a sigh in his heart.

She knew Mingshuang's intention in mentioning this matter to her, but the problem between her and Qin Feng was never about how much the other party had paid for her.

No matter how deep Qin Feng's love is, she will not be able to repay her after all.

Since such an ending is already doomed, what is the use of deep love?

Xie Ning shook his head helplessly, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a bitter smile.

Although Gu Sui had heard it in the clouds, she could still detect Xie Ning's feelings.

Seeing that her young lady's love was low, she knew that she was stupid, and she didn't dare to comfort her indiscriminately, so she secretly couldn't help but pull Mingshuang's sleeve and gestured to the other party with her eyes.

Mingshuang raised her head, but she had a calm expression, and she didn't pay attention to Gu Sui's request for help, and said directly: "Maybe Miss thinks that the slave maid mentioned these things to Miss just to say some good things for the prince." That's right, Mingshuang is indeed a little selfish, but in the final analysis, the slave maid is also thinking about the young lady. ”

"So what," Xie Ning was in a complicated mood for a while, casually fiddled with the purse on his waist, and lowered his eyes: "People live in this world, don't they have to do things according to their own hearts?" I just want to marry Wei Qingyang, how about His Royal Highness King An, what does it have to do with me? No matter how much he does, it's not like the bamboo basket is empty. If you are really good for him, you should persuade him to let go sooner. ”

Qin Feng is a very good person, he shouldn't spend all his thoughts on her, and he shouldn't delay because of her.

Xie Ning thought clearly, no matter whether the two could be friends in the future or not, the marriage contract she made with Wei Qingyang was already a fact. And it is also a fact that she and Qin Feng can't be together.

After all, she couldn't ruin this marriage contract because of Qin Feng.

This is also unfair to Wei Qingyang.

Her meaning was clearly expressed, Mingshuang listened to it, but she couldn't help but be stunned, and after her eyes flashed, she put away the bitter smile on her face, and said to Xie Ning with a serious expression: "The prince has done a lot for you, Miss, but moving is moving, heartbeat is heartbeat, and it can't be mixed up." Mingshuang just wants Miss to recognize her mind, and she just wants Miss to see if the things that the prince has secretly done for you can pull your heartstrings. ”

Her words were obviously from the bottom of her heart, but Xie Ning had heard them but was only silent—she didn't know what her heart was at all, and how she could understand her own heart.

Whether it is Qin Feng or Wei Qingyang, they are not Xie Ning's favorite people. At first, she regarded Qin Feng as a close friend, and she only regarded Wei Qingyang as a brother with a different surname.

It wasn't until Wei Qingyang talked to her about the marriage between the two that Xie Ning had a vague understanding of this.

The two are married, and the other party will be her future husband.

She doesn't understand **** at all, or it can be said that she doesn't realize what **** is.

She didn't understand why a single love word could have such a big meaning. can make Gu Qingyun unscrupulous, can make Xiao Yan look sad, and can also make Qin Feng silently pay so much for her.

The other party's heart is too heavy, she can't repay it, and she doesn't know how to respond.

But she didn't know how to talk to Mingshuang.

Xie Ning raised his head suddenly, his eyes were slightly red, but he still didn't know it, he just endured the sourness in his heart, and refused casually: "I understand what you mean, it's just-"

Before he finished speaking, he was deliberately interrupted by Mingshuang - "Didn't Miss go to the market outside to buy steamed buns before, why don't you go and take a good look." ”

Bun shop...... Aunt Li......

Hearing the deep meaning of her words, Xie Ning couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart, although she knew that what the other party said must be related to Qin Feng, but she was never a person who was used to escaping, and she really wanted to know what Qin Feng had done for her, and what kind of heart Qin Feng had for her.

She was not moved by Qin Feng's actions, but at that time, she only thought that the other party regarded her as a friend worthy of friendship, but she didn't expect that as early as the beginning of their acquaintance, Qin Feng had a deep affection for her.

Xie Ning made up his mind and walked out of the room without saying a word.

In the blink of an eye, Xie Ning jumped out of the wall. (To be continued.) )
