"Now that you are in the Hou Mansion, it is better to pay more attention to your words and deeds. This was my lack of thought and consideration, which made you almost discovered. It seems that if there is something in the future, I still have to officially hand over the post, and after discussing with the Marquis of Jingyang, I will come to pick you up and go out. ”

Without misidentifying the look of apology in Uncle Pei's eyes, Xie Ning thought for a moment and said urgently: "That's King Xuan sending someone to follow, we really can't make this decision." If you blame yourself again, I will apologize. The person who goes out without permission is me, even if it is my fault, it is also my fault, what do you have to do with it? ”

In Xie Ning's opinion, Uncle Pei's self-blame is too demanding. She sneaked out of the house, and it wasn't once or twice. Although this is inappropriate, it is really out of helplessness, even if it is really discovered by the people of the Hou Mansion, she is not irrefutable.

At first, she climbed over the wall every day, in exchange for three meals a day to fill her stomach, but later it was to help Qin Feng train the soldiers, and she had no choice but to hide people's eyes, that is, today, she sneaked out of the house, and she also had something to do, not the idea of coming out to have fun.

If it weren't a last resort, who would leave the door and not leave, and have to sneak over the wall to enter the house?

"That's it, let's go in first." Pei Xinghai didn't respond to Xie Ning's question, got up from his seat, and walked out.

Xie Ning was helpless, but he couldn't show it to Pei Xinghai, so he could only swallow the complaint in his stomach silently, followed Pei Xinghai out of the carriage, walked a few steps, and arrived at the door of a shop.

Pei Xinghai glanced at the plaque in front of the door, nodded and said, "The fat powder shop in Chang'anfang in the west of the city should be here." ”

The two of them crossed the threshold one after another, walked in, and before they had time to look up, a beautiful woman with a good posture came forward, only to see that she was over twenty years old, but she did not comb the woman's bun, and her black hair was wearing a bright waist-length red skirt, and a heavy purple shirt, which was very eye-catching.

I saw that she blessed her body slightly in the direction of the two, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "If the two guest officers have anything to seek, just order the slave family." If you don't have anything to look for, you can also go to the second floor after looking at it. ”

If she didn't say it, Xie Ning was afraid that she wouldn't think that the second floor was also their family's property, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but take a look at the staircase. Not wanting this brief glance to fall into the eyes of the beautiful woman, the smile on her face remained unchanged, and as soon as she arched her hand at Xie Ning, she signaled loudly: "This young lady, you might as well go upstairs with the slave family to have a look, how about it?" ”

Xie Ning was stunned and was about to refuse, when Pei Xinghai's voice came from his ears, "This lady doesn't know, the two of us have something to do, not here to buy things." ”

"Oh?" The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows slightly, and a smile suddenly bloomed on her face, and she looked at Pei Xinghai with interest, "Forgive He Niang for taking the liberty of asking, I don't know what happened when you came to visit?" ”

As she spoke, the beautiful woman who called herself He Niang clearly moved a few steps forward. Xie Ning was waiting for Uncle Pei to take out the seal letter and explain to her, but he didn't wait for his action for a long time. looked sideways with a little confusion, but what caught his eye was a little residual red at the root of Pei Xinghai's ears.

Tsk, it turns out that Uncle Pei is shy. Xie Ning looked at him, and then at He Niang, who was standing opposite the two, but his heart was happy.

Uncle Pei is over thirty years old, but because he has been in Shudi, he has not married. In their army, it's not that no one has given him these things, but there are not many unmarried women of school age in Shudi, and it is even more difficult to find someone who matches him. came and went, and it has been so far.

didn't expect him to react like this when he saw this He Niangzi. Xie Ning's eyes wandered back and forth between the two, and he thought happily in his heart: Maybe when I see him today, I can make a good match.

Seeing that Pei Xinghai didn't say anything, the beautiful woman waited for a moment before turning to look at Xie Ning and asked suspiciously: "This young lady, the small shop is in the fat powder business." Why did you two come here if you didn't buy anything? ”

Xie Ning took a step forward, and when Na He Niangzi's attention was on her, he used a clever angle to hit Pei Xinghai with his elbow hard, and then naturally blocked him diagonally in front of him, and said with a slight smile: "I haven't informed He Niang yet, the little girl's surname is Xie." ”

Surname Xie? He Niang's eyes changed in an instant, and the previous puzzled look had dissipated, and turned to be full of surprise. But just listening to the tone, I couldn't hear any unusual emotions, "It turned out to be Miss Xie." Look at me, and treat you like a guest. Wait, Miss, I'll call someone to make you a cup of tea. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xie Ning nodded, and He Niang immediately walked in the direction of the stairs. Seeing her figure disappear at the corner of the stairs, Xie Ning turned back to Pei Xinghai and quipped: "It's just that I saw Mrs. He, why didn't Uncle Pei even forget about business?" ”

After being reminded by Xie Ning before, Pei Xinghai had already come back to his senses, but at this time, he was still a little embarrassed, avoiding Xie Ning's gaze, subconsciously put his hand to his lips, and coughed: "Cough, little girl, don't talk nonsense, I just haven't been in contact with a woman for a long time, and I'm just a little unaccustomed to it." ”

Obviously aware that the words in his words did not match the truth, Xie Ning had no intention of piercing it, blinked his eyes slyly, and said in a strange voice: "Yes, yes, I said nonsense, okay?" ”

Pei Xinghai raised his head and glanced at the second floor, and after confirming that there was no one, he lowered his voice and said: "Originally, don't think about it anymore, in case it causes people to misunderstand, wouldn't it be bad?" ”

"It's not for me to decide," Xie Ning stuck out his tongue mischievously, "As long as you don't lose your temper like Fang Cai, I dare to guarantee that Mrs. He will not misunderstand anything." ”

Pei Xinghai glanced at her, and was about to speak, when he vaguely heard the movement coming from upstairs in his ears, hurriedly glanced at Xie Ning, took the conversation, and pretended to stand in place as if nothing happened.

Seeing that he reacted so quickly, Xie Ning couldn't help but feel funny, because he had to take care of his face, he could only laugh secretly. Although her face was normal, she couldn't help but smile and endure hard in her heart, seeing He Niangzi coming down from the second floor, she took a lot of effort to restrain her gaze towards Pei Xinghai, and turned to look at the furnishings in the shop.

Xu is because the doors and windows are open, the light in the shop is extremely bright, reflecting the jujube mahogany case, the multi-treasure shelf, and the bottles and cans placed on it are scattered, which is enough to see that He Niangzi is a person who is good at taking care of it.

"Miss, please have tea."

Retracting her gaze, Xie Ning turned around when she heard the sound, but when she saw He Niangzi holding a tray and standing in front of her, she simply took the tea, put it next to the desk, and took another cup and handed it to Pei Xinghai.

(Excuse me: Isn't the pace a bit slow lately?) ）
