Chapter 193: Plan Ahead

"The old slave came on the orders of his wife, I don't know if Miss Cousin is in the room?"

Mother Lou's voice came from outside the door, Mingshuang subconsciously glanced at Xie Ning, and after getting her affirmative acquiescence, she stepped forward to welcome people in, "Mother Lou, please come in." ”

After looking around, Lou's mother's gaze couldn't help but stay on Xiao Yan for a moment, and she said half-truthfully: "It turns out that Xiao Gongzi is also here." Miss Table's room was really lively. ”

Xie Ning glanced at her, and did not show too much enthusiasm, but said as usual: "Uncle sent you to look for me at this time, but is there something?" ”

"Yes, Madame ordered the old slave to come because she wanted to ask the two young ladies how they planned to arrange it tonight."

Xu Banxia glanced at Xie Ning and saw that she hadn't spoken, so she didn't hurry to speak. Mother Lou paused, and then continued: "But Madame said, this room is really a little small, if the two young ladies insist on living together, it is better to go to the second lady's room to live with her." ”

Living with Gao Yiyan? Xie Ning couldn't help but sneer secretly in his heart. Xiang decided that she didn't want to get along with the other party. Xie Ning suddenly wanted to know the reaction of the Xiang family's master and servant after she responded to this matter, and the overall situation could be taken into account, so she had to dispel this idea.

Xiang's choice to act in Fuwei Temple was actually more beneficial to Xie Ning. Otherwise, if the other party changes the Hou Mansion, she will be even weaker by then.

Do a full set of plays. Xie Ning's mind turned, so he turned his head and glanced at Xu Banxia, and without waiting for Lou's mother to take a closer look, he turned around again, and responded hesitantly: "Don't bother." My cousin and Banxia have met twice before, so they are not strangers. ”

Lou's mother stared slightly. There seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes, and he nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "That's fine." I just don't know what Miss Xu thinks? ”

Knowing that Xie Ning had made up his mind, Xu Banxia knew that he was difficult to control for a while, so he had to reluctantly speak: "Then follow Mrs. Hou's arrangement." I just don't know which room the second lady lives in? I don't want to be too far away from Anin. ”

"It's not far, it's not far," after Xu Banxia responded, Lou's mother showed a little smile on her face, and said politely: "The second miss lives in the middle room, which is very close to Miss Biao's residence." ”

Xu Banxia couldn't help frowning and said, "I don't know who lives in the room next to A-Ning?" Can mom arrange this for me? ”

Perhaps because of the reason for studying medical skills, Xu Banxia often walks outside. Same as Shainin. The gestures are also quite informal. Xie Ning doesn't think that she is the kind of person who is rude and willful, and why she is picking and choosing now, Xie Ning also knows it.

Xu Banxia insisted on living next door to her, naturally because she was afraid that something would happen to her. That's when I decided to take care of it.

And the purpose of Lou's mother. But it was just to separate the two of them. Hearing this, he didn't hesitate too much, but just responded directly: "Next door lives Miss Xia Biao from our Hou Mansion. If Miss Xu wants to live with her, then the old slave will go and make arrangements. Wait until everything is in order. I'll call you over again. ”

Xu Banxia nodded slightly, "Just according to what my mother said." After speaking, he watched Lou's mother go out.

Mingshuang personally sent her to the door, and when she turned to return, she covered the door with her backhand and said to Xie Ning calmly: "It seems that Mrs. Hou does have a plan." Miss, I think we should be on the alert tonight. ”

"Well, you're right." Xie Ning nodded, and was about to cast an approving glance at Mingshuang, when he saw the other party walk to the wooden cabinet in the corner of the wall, and stretched out his hand, as if searching for something inside.

In this cabinet is Shainin's luggage when he came. But for a while, Xie Ning didn't know what she was looking for, and when she was suspicious, the voice of the ear of grain came from her ear.

"Sister Mingshuang, what are you looking for? Do you need my help? ”

Mingshuang turned around when she heard this, but her subordinates kept moving, and she refused with a smile: "No need, I'll just come by myself." ”

It didn't take long for Mingshuang to take out a small box from the cabinet.

Xie Ning looked at it, although he felt that the pattern and carving on it was very familiar, but for a while, he couldn't remember when he had actually seen it, so he had to watch the other party open it on the wooden table placed in front of him.

What greeted you was a sweet scent. Xie Ning took a deep breath, finally remembered what this was, and immediately blurted out: "This is a dream?" ”

Mingshuang raised her head and replied with a smile: "Not bad." ”

Hearing this, Xie Ning couldn't help but be a little suspicious, after all, in her impression, this dream was as fragrant as its name suggested, and it had the effect of sleeping peacefully. Mingshuang found this thing at this time, could it be that she was worried that she wouldn't die if she hadn't slept enough?

Seeing the obvious puzzled look in her eyes, Mingshuang couldn't help but smile slightly, and explained slowly: "Miss, don't forget, we also have a Banxia girl with superb medical skills here." ”

Xie Ning had her prompt, when he looked at Xu Banxia. But after seeing that the other party thought for a while, a look of surprise flashed on his face, and he took out a lot of bottles and cans from the sleeve pockets of his hands, and fiddled with them as if no one was around.

That's a good trick. Xie Ning watched Xu Banxia's movements, but he couldn't help but have the idea of learning from the other party and sewing a few pockets between his sleeves.

Although she doesn't have many medicinal materials or other things to hold, she can put some hidden weapons and silver or something, which can be regarded as a response to an occasional need, at least she will not suffer when she fights with others and runs away in the future.

Xie Ning was still thinking about it, but Xiao Yan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but be a little dazed, and after taking two steps forward and not observing anything famous, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you guys doing?" ”

Xu Banxia stopped the movements in his hand, glanced at him angrily, and said, "I said Xiao Dagongzi, can you wait and then ask?" I'm dispensing medicine right now, and I can't get a penny wrong with the amount of medicine. If something happens, you'll be responsible? ”

Xiao Yan pursed his lips helplessly, took two steps back with his backhand, and muttered secretly: "I don't know if it's so serious...... I think it's a communiqué for personal vendettas. ”

Hearing his complaint clearly, Xie Ning couldn't help but smile on his lips. Xiao Yan and Xu Banxia are a pair of happy enemies when they get together. You and I don't give in to each other, and the verbal battle is fierce, and I don't know how much headache Qin Feng should have when he stays with the two of them.

But I think the relationship between these two should be good. After all, Xu Banxia is Qin Feng's sweetheart, not to mention that she and Mingshuang also have such a tacit understanding, they don't even have to talk to her, they already know each other's thoughts.

Xie Ning looked at the two who were busy, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Mingshuang is Qin Feng's confidant, Xu Banxia can be so good with her, it seems that she and Qin Feng must have known each other for a long time.

"Alright." I don't know how long it took. Xu Banxia finally clapped his hands. He took a deep breath, raised his head, and said very happily: "I finally finished it before my mother came back from that building." ”

Xiao Yan glanced at her, and finally couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart. frowned and said, "Then what are you doing?" Now it's finally talkable, right? ”

"You want to know?" Xu Banxia laughed very slyly. A finger was stretched out and hooked at him.

Xiao Yan walked over as she meant, pricked up his ears, and was about to listen to her explanation. Unexpectedly, the other party smiled more and more brightly, and deliberately teased: "I just don't tell you, what can you do to me?" ”

"Heh," Xiao Yan glanced at her, turned her head to look at Mingshuang, and said directly: "Mingshuang, you say." ”

Mingshuang had no intention of embarrassing him, and after the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he said with a smile: "We just want to use this spice to mix something refreshing." ”

Xu Banxia's medical skills are outstanding, and it is natural to turn decay into magic. Xie Ning bowed slightly, and after listening to Mingshuang's words, he finally solved the doubts in his heart.

"I see." Xiao Yan also understood, stepped forward to take a look, but turned his head and caught a glimpse of the smug look on Xu Banxia's face, so he couldn't help pursing his lips, and deliberately said in a weird and sour voice: "Miss Xu is really clever and has so many medicines with her. It is said that medicine and poison are not separated, and I see who offends you in the future, but I am afraid that it will be unlucky. ”

"Hmph," Xu Banxia couldn't help but snort slightly, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Then you should be careful yourself." I don't like to make enemies with others, but if I really have a verbal dispute with someone, I must give the other party some color. ”

With a pair of peach blossom eyes widened, Xiao Yan was already stunned at this time, "You-"

Seeing that the two of them were arguing again, Xie Ning, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but have a headache, so he immediately ran between the two of them in three steps and two steps, and persuaded him: "Okay, okay, it's not too early." No matter how much you two quarrel, I'm afraid that Lou's mother will come back in a while. ”

Only then did the two of them die down. Xie Ning's heart was relieved, so he turned his head and asked, "Banxia, I don't know how to use the things you just matched?" But do you still need to put it in the smoker? ”

"I almost forgot," when it came to business, Xu Banxia couldn't help but pat his head, "It's the point." ”

When Xie Ning heard this, he took out the fire fold on his body, and Mingshuang took the initiative to reach out and take it when he saw this, and lowered his head to fiddle with it.

Xu Banxia pulled Xie Ning's sleeve, turned her hand and picked up the two slender porcelain bottles that she had placed on the table before, and introduced in detail: "A-Ning, these two bottles are filled with medicinal powder that I personally blended. This powder bottle is full of drugs, and if there is any sneaky person, you can just sprinkle it. The white bottle is filled with poison, and if it is sprinkled on the wound, it will make the other person bleed. You take them with you, just remember not to hurt yourself. ”

After hearing her advice, Xie Ning couldn't help but nodded, stretched out his hand to take the things she handed over, although he felt that her two bottles of medicinal powder had come in time, he only smiled slightly, and pretended to be relieved: "Don't worry, I will take it." But don't think about it, after all, it's hard to say that someone is going to come tonight, right? ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. When Xu Banxia heard this, his eyes flashed, and he pulled the corners of his mouth unnaturally, and echoed: "Yes." But it's always necessary to plan ahead. You won't need these things today, and it's good to keep them for self-defense later. ”

Xie Ning was already planning to use these things to deal with the secret guard master who might have been invited by the Xiang family, and he had something in his heart, so for a while, he didn't notice the strange look on Xu Banxia's face, and just nodded slightly and said, "That's right, then I'll laugh first." ”

Seeing her divert the topic, Xu Banxia looked relieved and chuckled: "What are you polite to me." Right now, I'm away from home, and I'm not bringing anything good. When you get back to the capital, I'll give you some more medicinal powder. ”

Xie Ning was happy when he heard this, and the two chatted a few more words. Not long after, Lou's mother came to send Xu Banxia to the next room, and Xiao Yan had to move back to the east chamber under the other party's overt and covert reminders.

In the room for a while, only the three masters and servants of Shainin were left. Because of the medicinal powder given by Xu Banxia in his hand, Xie Ning no longer wondered whether the Xiang family would order someone to attack him, and after washing as usual, he lay on the bed with his clothes.

Gu Sui and Mingshuang still slept on the couch and did not live with her. After all, no one knows what will happen later, if a master really comes to the door, with the two of them on the side, Xie Ning will be distracted. It would be even worse if the other party caught and threatened because of this.

For this, Gu Sui almost got angry. After Shainin explained to her, she reluctantly agreed.

The night in the guest house was very quiet, thanks to the spices lit in the room, Xie Ning was not half tired at this time, lying on the bed with his eyes closed, but his hearing became more and more sensitive, but he listened carefully for a while, except for the deep or shallow breathing of the three people in the room, she did not hear any other sounds.

I don't know if Xu Banxia and Xiao Yan slept or not. The two of them had been clamoring to sneak out to see her at night, but Xie Ning had waited for a long time and had not seen anyone coming, so he couldn't help but secretly suspect that they had behaved too deliberately before, so that Xiang and the others could see the flaw.

At this moment, there was finally some movement outside. Xie Ning counted the deliberately light footsteps, and through the depth of the other party's breathing, he finally roughly discerned the distance between the other party and her at this time, and his general direction was behind the wing.

Suddenly, there was silence in his ears, and he knew that the other party had stopped, and he felt more and more that the other party was Xiao Yan or Xu Banxia who came to investigate, and he was about to sneak out of bed to take a look at the window, when there was another sound in his ears.

Xie Ning's heart froze, so he dispelled Fang Cai's thoughts, and continued to lie motionless on the bed, but his heart was like thunder for a while, and he beat violently, and it took a long time to calm down.

This person didn't know where he came from, but his breathing was very intense, not like he had practiced kung fu, and he didn't know if it was Xiao Yan.

His mind turned, and the other party's footsteps stopped again. Xie Ning couldn't help but glance out, but saw that outside the thin layer of window paper, there was a starlight shining through, reflecting half of the figures.

Xie Ning had the courage to turn his head and take advantage of this glimmer to see the other party's outline clearly. But when I saw that someone came to tie his hair and scarf, there was no such thing as a woman's hairpin ring, and it was obviously a man like a small servant. (To be continued.) )
