Chapter 155: Jealousy
Lu Qingrong's words stunned the two people opposite.
Qiu Jinting naturally took it for granted, and did not give any explanation.
In the end, He Qingwan couldn't hold back his mouth: "We originally followed the princess to Guangyin Temple, but it was really boring to listen to those monks, so I thought about coming here for a spin." ”
"Since that's the case, and you can't go up the mountain at this time, I think the county lord and Miss He should go back quickly, lest the princess won't find you for a while." After Lu Qingrong finished speaking, he didn't pay attention to it, and turned around and walked towards the carriage of the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion after saying goodbye directly.
Lu Qingrong was walking in the woods relaxedly, and his interest was greatly reduced because of the chance encounter with these two people.
Seeing this, Jiang Xuan hurriedly followed behind him and helped her up, so that he followed closely and got into the carriage.
Seeing the carriage of the Marquis of Jingyuan disappearing in front of him, Qiu Jinting and He Qingwan's love could hardly hide their depression.
Although Qiu Jinting had been deliberately ignoring Lu Qingrong just now, the subtle interaction in Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong's eyes during this period was still clearly seen by her.
Qiu Jinting has often walked in the palace since he was a child, and often met Jiang Xuan, who was the companion of the second prince at that time, and whether it was for herself or other meritorious nobles, Jiang Xuan has always been indifferent, acting completely in his own way, and never caring about the feelings of others.
On the other hand, now, it seems that he cares about Lu Qingrong's feelings very much, and even has a sense of following suit.
Qiu Jinting didn't know why she was so indignant in her heart, even when she learned that she was not elected as the crown prince's concubine, she probably didn't have the excitement at this moment.
Although the loss of being eliminated is still a little bit, but thinking that the prince is a little older, and he always shows people with an unrestrained face on weekdays, and even his expression is pitiful, as soon as Qiu Jinting thinks of this, he is extremely reluctant to enter the palace.
And what makes her most depressed at the moment is another thing.
Before the selection of the crown prince's concubine, her mother had been planning for her family affairs for a while, and at that time, she was looking at some noble children who could not support the wall, which made her inevitably worried.
Now that the matter of the prince's concubine is yellow, her mother hurriedly began to prepare for her marriage again, and this time it is obviously more eyebrow-raising than before, it is the second master of the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion, the biological son-in-law of Mrs. Jingyuan, Jiang Ke.
For Jiang Ke, Qiu Jinting's impression was vague, and he only vaguely remembered a suave and somewhat thin silhouette.
When her mother told her about it, she wasn't very happy.
Although Jiang Ke looked a lot better than those noble children before, the thought of Jiang Xuan made her feel a little awkward.
Originally, when Lu Qingrong married into the Hou Mansion, she didn't feel anything, but later she happened to see Jiang Xuan a few times, and saw that he was all high-spirited, which did not coincide with the rumored state of long-term illness. The more Qiu Jinting thought about it, the more he felt that Lu Qingrong had picked up a big bargain this time, and he didn't want to marry into the Hou Mansion, but he would have to be pressed by her forever in terms of identity. What if Jiang Ke is really as "knowledgeable and talented" as his mother said? Lu Qingrong is the current Mrs. Shizi and the future Mrs. Hou! I don't want to be her foil anyway......
But in the end, she was moved by her mother's words.
According to Princess Chengyang, the shape of the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion is not yet clear, and it is difficult to say what the pattern will be in the future. But one thing is certain, now that the Wu family is in full swing, and the Marquis of Jingyuan has not been able to serve for many years, after a hundred years of Marquis Jingyuan, Mrs. Wu's control of the Hou Mansion will only increase and not decrease, and Jiang Ke is Mrs. Wu's only son, can he still suffer with him? Not to mention that there is no need to worry about being suppressed by the wife of the prince, even if the inheritance of the title will change in the future, it is still unknown!
At this time, Qiu Jinting remembered his mother's words again, and his heart was much relieved.
At this moment, the carriage that Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong were riding in had already disappeared, and even the group of people from the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion had all disappeared into the distance.
Qiu Jinting let out a sigh and returned to the carriage with a mood of "who will kill the deer, we will have to wait and see".
And He Qingwan, who was following her, did not have her calmness, and it was inevitable that she would be a little absent-minded when sitting in the carriage.
Qiu Jinting obviously didn't notice her strange appearance, and still said to herself: "Those who come out to play in the mountains and rivers in the blue sky and daylight, and Mrs. Jingyuan Marquis doesn't care about them!" ”
Even He Qingwan felt very far-fetched when he heard this.
People are legitimate couples, why can't they go out to play in the water? What's more, they themselves are still girls who have not yet come out of the cabinet, don't they also come out......
But she certainly can't say that.
In front of Qiu Jinting, He Qingwan was used to being low and quiet, and echoing with him.
"This just shows that Mrs. Wu is a good mother-in-law." He Qingwan picked what she liked to hear.
Qiu Jinting and Jiang Ke are talking about their relationship, and she knows it.
On the way to Fengqi Mountain just now, Qiu Jinting was nagging her about this matter, sometimes happy, sometimes complaining, and couldn't figure out what her attitude was.
But no matter what her attitude is, He Qingwan can only pick a few words that are pleasing to her ears, and she definitely doesn't dare to complain with her.
Because He Qingwan knew in his heart that Qiu Jinting and Jiang Ke's family affairs should be eight or nine.
At this time, Qiu Jinting heard her statement, and it was really very useful, but he still said with a straight face: "If you are too easy to get along with, it will become connivance, and it may not be a good thing!" ”
Before the words fell, she felt that something was wrong, but fortunately, only He Qingwan was in the carriage, and she didn't bother to explain anything.
He Qingwan really didn't think much about it, just as she was still complaining casually.
Qiu Jinting looked at He Qingwan, planning to change the topic, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked directly: "It seems that your sister doesn't plan to recognize you, right?" ”
This is talking about Lu Qingrong again.
She has always had no scruples about speaking in front of He Qingwan, and the relationship between Lu Qingrong and the He family is often talked about by her when they talk in private, as if this can give her a little inexplicable sense of superiority.
He Qingwan sighed first when she heard this, and then said softly: "According to my father's meaning, we are sisters after all, but not on this day or two, we will naturally get closer after a long time...... But I don't think it's that easy......"
Qiu Jinting also somewhat agreed with her, anyway, she felt that Lu Qingrong was getting more and more different from the easy-going Miss Lu Si in her memory, and it was becoming more and more difficult to look at.
"Mother has been trying to find a way to invite the female relatives of the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion to be a guest recently." He Qingwan continued, "Grandfather and his party are about to arrive in the capital, and I am afraid that the family will be lively for a few days at that time." ”
He Qingwan's tone seemed a little lost.
For her, there is nothing to look forward to.
The elders of the He family want to come to the capital, but these people, whether they are grandparents and grandmothers, or uncles and aunts, are extremely cold to her, and they can even be said to be a little sinister. In addition, she has rarely returned to Jinan over the years, and now she suddenly has to face this big family, which makes her inevitably uneasy.
"I've heard that, too! You're going to have a church meeting, aren't you? Qiu Jinting seemed more enthusiastic than her, "I think it's better to ask my mother to help you please see, how can Mrs. Jingyuan Marquis give her this face, as long as Mrs. Jingyuan Marquis agrees, I want to come to your ...... My sister shouldn't be able to excuse herself. ”
He Qingwan nodded perfunctorily.
"Speaking of your sister, I think she has changed a lot recently!" Qiu Jinting began to have a little yin and yang weirdness, "Look at her calm and relaxed appearance just now, she didn't take us seriously at all!" There is also the Marquis of Jingyuan, who actually connived at her to be so arrogant, we really underestimated her before, but I didn't expect that it was a person with some means, so that the Marquis of Jingyuan would protect her! ”
In fact, before Qiu Jinting spoke, He Qingwan had already roughly guessed what she was going to say.
When she first met the Marquis of Jingyuan, she found that Qiu Jinting's expression was a little unnatural, and as for whether it was jealousy or disdain, or something else, she was still unsure.
But if you think about it, eighty percent of them are jealousy.
"A woman with her appearance is always easier to fall in love with...... He Qingwan said leisurely, although she didn't want to admit that she was inferior to Lu Qingrong, but this was an obvious fact.
"Not necessarily!" Qiu Jinting disagreed, "In the dignified Jingyuan Marquis' Mansion, can there still be a lack of beauties?" ”
Qiu Jinting recognized that Lu Qingrong was a person with means.
He Qingwan just smiled and didn't refute her words.
Qiu Jinting thought she didn't believe it, so she continued: "I heard that in the Yu Courtyard where the prince lives, there are several stunning maids, just waiting for the time to be ripe to take the house!" ”
He Qingwan was a little dumbfounded when he said this: "How do you know this? ”
Of course, Qiu Jinting would not admit it, because she was discussing marriage with Jiang Ke recently, so she inquired about the affairs of the inner courtyard of the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion in detail, and many of them were heard from her mother. Seeing that her daughter was about to marry her, Princess Chengyang couldn't take care of that much, and told Qiu Jinting all the news that she had worked so hard to get, what she should have said and what she shouldn't say, and only hoped that she would know more things and suffer less losses in the future.
"I also listen to other people." Qiu Jinting was vague, "In short, the news is absolutely reliable!" ”
He Qingwan also stopped asking about it.
When she heard Qiu Jinting say this just now, she also hoped that this matter was true.
She didn't want Lu Qingrong's life to go too smoothly in her heart, especially when her future was still uncertain.
As everyone knows, at this time in the He Mansion, Qiu Muyun and He Kai are discussing her life's events. R1152
