Chapter 248: Xiang Xuehai (First Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)

A thin wool blanket fell lightly on Situ Ying's sleeve.

When Situ Yingsleeves came in, he took off his coat outside, only wearing a green brocade placket and a small jacket with pipa buttons, lying on the windowsill and opening the thick curtains to look out, and was swept away by the cold wind blowing in the cracks, which was indeed a little cold.

This thin blanket came at the right time.

Situ Yingsleeve thought that it was taken by Cai Saun, so he hurriedly wrapped himself tightly, still looking out the window without blinking, and muttered, "...... Cai Sang, do you think that woman is really good-looking? ”

“…… Not as good as you. A deep voice reached Situ Yingsleeve's ears.

It turned out to be Xie Donglian's voice......

Situ Yingsleeve turned her head suddenly, and when she saw that it was Xie Dongli standing behind her, she blushed suddenly, pursed her lips, and said vigilantly: "What are you doing here?" Don't mess around! This is my mother's house. As he spoke, he stared at Xie Donglian's lips, worried that he would also be here to "cure" regardless of his illness......

Xie Dongli glanced at her, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he sat on the rocking chair next to the warm pavilion Xiangfei couch, put his hands on his chest, and said in a good manner: "What I said is true." That woman didn't look good in my eyes at all. ”

"And you're still picking on her?" Situ Yingsleeve said suspiciously, "Don't you want to coax me!" ”

"I said, it doesn't look good in my eyes, but in your father's eyes, she will be a stunning beauty, a beauty even more beautiful than Zhang Lanying." Xie Dongli said calmly, "Otherwise, how can you replace Zhang Lanying?" ”

Situ Ying's sleeves rolled his eyes, and he felt much more comfortable. But she never admitted that it was because of what Xie Dongli had just said.

"How do you know that she is a more beautiful beauty than Zhang Lanying in my father's eyes?" Situ Ying's sleeve fox asked, very unconvinced.

"You don't believe it? Then you can go with me to have a look. Xie Dongli stood up, "You eat breakfast first." Then we'll go to your father's side and find out. ”

Situ Yingsleeve nodded, and ordered Caisang to set breakfast for her.

……

Shen Yongjie and Prime Minister Shen Dacheng took the ice beauty who had just been sent in to see Situ Jianren.

Prime Minister Shen Dacheng didn't go in, and Shen Yongjie personally led people into the inner room where Situ Jianren was recuperating.

"Sir, it's snowing outside. Is the old man's injury better? As soon as Shen Yongjie entered the room, she put on a smile on her face and asked gently and generously.

Situ Jianren sat on the bed, his face full of displeasure. Raising his eyes and glancing at her, out of the corner of his eye, he immediately saw a woman standing a few steps behind her with her head down.

Although I couldn't see her face, I just stood there. It hit Situ Jianren's heart like an arrow.

His heart was pounding, just like when he first saw Zhang, and even more powerful than then.

Because he didn't even see the woman's face, he had already conferred on the soul.

Situ Jianren hurriedly looked away. Try not to look at the woman. Staring at Shen Yongjie's gentle and generous face, he smiled and said, "It's much better, there is Mrs. Lao." ”

Shen Yongjie nodded, "That's good." He didn't let the woman come up to greet Situ Jianren, but he sat down and began to greet him.

"Master, how are you taking Imperial Doctor's medicine? Do you want to change the doctor? ”

“…… Good. Situ Jianren listened to Shen Yongjie absentmindedly, although his eyes fell on Shen Yongjie's face, his attention was all on the woman behind Shen Yongjie.

"Sir. It's almost the New Year, and your leg injury should get better quickly. Otherwise, there is still a treat for this New Year's gift, how can you do it without the master? ”

“…… Oh. ”

"Master, I have taken stock of the accounts of these years in the past few days and found some problems. If the lord agrees, I will call the shopkeepers from all over the country to the capital to talk before the Chinese New Year. ”

“…… Yes. ”

"Master, I have taken all the dowry back then, and after taking inventory, most of it seems to have been taken away by Aunt Zhang, do you know where she got it?"

“…… Yes? Situ Jianren frowned, then came back to his senses and glanced at Shen Yongjie, "What did you say?" ”

"My dowry. Over the years, my dowry has been held in Aunt Zhang's hand, and the lord must not know what she has done, so I don't blame the lord. Shen Yongjie said with a smile, deliberately taking Situ Jianren out.

In fact, her dowry was held in Zhang's hand, how could Situ Jianren not know?

is just deliberately subsidizing the Zhang family with Shen Yongjie's dowry......

"Hehe, I really don't know. She didn't spend much, did she? Situ Jianren said in a daze, glancing at the woman quickly.

The woman still hung her head and stood behind Shen Yongjie without saying a word, although she couldn't see her face, but Situ Jianren saw her little hand hanging beside her, white and flawless, and she was bullying the frost.

Situ Jianren's heart trembled, and somewhere in his body was about to move, so he was busy not starting, and he didn't dare to look at the woman again.

Shen Yongjie watched Situ Jianren's every move in her eyes, and only sneered in her heart.

She deliberately didn't say anything about the woman she brought, just to make Situ Jianren's heart itch and unbearable.

It will only arouse his interest more and more if you can't see it or touch it.

Shen Yongjie made a full meal, finished everything she was going to say, and then stood up with a smile and said, "Then the old man rests, recuperates well, if you want something, just tell your subordinates and let them come to me." I'll go back first. He was about to leave, but he still didn't mean to say anything about the woman.

Situ Jianren waited patiently for a long time, obeying all the requests made by Shen Yongjie, expecting her to mention this woman, but Shen Yongjie saw that she was leaving, but she still didn't say it, as if she had forgotten.

Shen Yongjie turned around and walked towards the door.

The woman also turned around, revealing her curly back, following behind Shen Yongjie like a willow in the wind, and also going out.

Situ Jianren was anxious, and finally called Shen Yongjie out loud: "Madam! ”

"Is there anything else to do, sir?" Shen Yongjie stopped, looked back at Situ Jianren and smiled gently.

Situ Jianren had no choice but to point to the woman behind her, and said with a smile: "Madam...... Who is this girl? I don't think I've seen it? ”

"Oh! The old man said that the warbler! Shen Yongjie closed her hands. He slapped his palm and smiled, and pushed the woman, "Yingying." The lord called you. ”

"Warbler? Her name is Yingying? Situ Jianren suddenly remembered Zhang Lanying's name and became suspicious.

However, the woman raised her head appropriately, her eyes flowed, and she turned around Situ Jianren's face, then lowered her eyes, and said coquettishly: "Concubine Yingying, what does the master command?" "The sound is crisp. It's like a song and swallow, which makes people intoxicated.

Situ Jianren's ears tingled when he heard it, and he said continuously: "The name Yingying is good!" That's a good name! ”

Shen Yongjie nodded and said, "Since the master likes it." You're here to serve the master. He said to Situ Jianren: "Yingying is not a slave, but a good family." If the lord wants her to serve, he must set the wine in a fair manner and let her be the second room. Otherwise, people can report to the official. ”

Situ Jianren was extremely happy. Busy said: "This is nature! Stay first. When my injuries are healed, I'll do it again! ”

Shen Yongjie knew that with Situ Jianren's current condition, at most he was addicted, and it was impossible to do anything else, so he didn't care, glanced at Yingying, motioned for her to stay, and turned around and left.

Lift the curtain. Shen Yongjie saw Situ Yingsleeve and Xie Dongli standing at the door, staring at the curtain of Situ Jianren's bedroom.

"Huh? What happened to the sleeves? Shen Yongjie asked with a smile. Have you had breakfast? ”

Situ Yingsleeve nodded, and raised his voice in the inner room: "Dad, my daughter has come to greet you." ”

Situ Jianren was busy getting close to the new beauty, where did he want to waste time with his daughter, so he was busy in the back room and said loudly: "Got it!" Go back. Don't come to say hello these days. It's snowing outside, it's hard to walk, stay by yourself! "It's kind of like that......

Situ Yingsleeve shook his head helplessly.

Xie Dongli raised his chin at her and asked her to continue talking to Situ Jianren.

On the way here just now, Xie Dongli told her that the Zhang family wanted to see Situ Jianren, and asked Situ Yingsleeve to take this opportunity to talk to Situ Jianren to see if he was willing to go to Baita Prison.

Situ Yingsleeve took a deep breath and said, "Dad, Aunt Zhang said that she wanted to see you, do you want to go to Baita Prison?" ”

There was silence in the bedroom of the inner room for a long time, and then Situ Jianren's voice sounded: "...... Wait for the snow to stop. ”

Situ Yingsleeve: "......"

My mother was not wrong, and my father really changed his mind very quickly.

She didn't speak again, turned and left Situ Jianren's room.

Shen Yongjie was talking to Prime Minister Shen Dacheng on the corridor at the door, "...... Dad, wait for the people from Dali Temple and the Criminal Department to come, you can go to the back room and sit down. ”

Prime Minister Shen Dacheng nodded, "Let's go, go to your yard." ”

Situ Yingsleeve had already walked down the steps and walked into the snow.

In just a few moments, the ground was already covered with a thick layer of snow.

The weather was colder than usual, and the snow fell to the ground and quickly froze hard.

Walking on it makes a creaking sound.

Situ Ying wrapped his thick mink wool in his sleeves and walked towards the snow blankly.

Xie Dongli followed her not far away, and saw that she was gradually deviating from the right path in the inner courtyard, and reminded her loudly: "There is a courtyard here with good vegetarian plums, this weather, it should be open, right?" ”

Situ Yingsleeve came back to his senses, glanced back at him, and frowned: "How do you know that there is a vegetarian plum here?" ”

Xie Dongli smiled, walked to her with his hands behind his back, and said unhurriedly, "You forgot?" This house was sold to your father by my family. ”

Situ Yingsleeve suddenly smiled: "No wonder." At that time, I was still thinking about how my father was so capable of buying the old mansion of the famous Xie family......"

At first, I thought it was Prime Minister Shen Dacheng as a guarantor, so the Xie family sold it.

Now, it seems, it's not that simple.

Xie Dongli turned against the guest, and took her onto a small road that she didn't often go to, and turned into a small courtyard where there were no people.

The white wall and black tiles, the pink and white courtyard wall, and a plaque hanging on the gate, with three big characters of "Xiangxue Hai" written on it.

In the yard, dozens of plum trees are blooming yellow, pushing mountains and reclaiming the sea, lined with heavy snow, which is particularly dazzling in the dim snow day.

"It's so pretty!" Situ Yingsleeve's mood suddenly improved, "Sure enough, it's Xiangxuehai!" ”

She walked into the yard, climbed down a branch of plain plum, came to the front and took a deep breath, and the elegant fragrance of plum blossom suddenly filled her chest.

Xie Dongli leaned against the big tree in front of the courtyard with his hands, squinting at Situ Ying's sleeves turning around in the yard, his steps were light, his smile was as delicate as these blooming plums, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl.

He strolled in.

In the middle of the yard there was the largest plum tree, with a trunk so thick that it took two people to hug it.

I don't know how many years this plum tree has been, the middle of the tree has cracked, slightly convex forward, like a palm in front of the support, but it is hidden under the dense golden plum flowers, and it is not visible from the outside at all.

Xie Dongli can know this place.

"Follow me." He walked up to Situ Yingsleeve, reached out and took her hand, walked over to the largest plum tree, pushed away the sparse plum branches, and sat her in his arms.

The two of them sat on the tree tray held up in the middle of the tree, tightly wrapped in the starry plum blossoms around them.

Situ Yingsleeve was so shocked by the sea-like Lamei that she could reach beside her that she couldn't speak, and just as she was concentrating, Xie Dongli had already come over, held the back of her head with one hand, leaned her against the trunk of the tree, and slowly kissed her lips.

Situ Yingsleeve didn't close her eyes, she looked at his delicate face with a bit of sharpness and greeted him, and saw his wide eyes.

The eyes were dark, like a very dark night, but in the dark background, a person's face was clearly reflected. - Her countenance.

The plain heart plum behind him was in full swing, reflected in Situ Ying's clear eyes, as if lighting up the sky full of stars.

For a while, the two lips were entangled, but they did not close their eyes as before.

The two stared at each other quietly, both seeing themselves only in each other's eyes.

“…… Won't it be seen by others? Situ Ying said softly.

"No, it won't." Xie Dongli tossed and turned on her lips, "No one can see it." ”

A few maids stood guard outside the courtyard.

They really didn't see it.

They only saw the fragrance of plum blossoms in the courtyard, and the figures of the eldest lady and Vice Minister Xie turned around inside, and soon disappeared.

But no matter where they went, they were always in this courtyard, so these maids were not busy, and waited quietly outside the courtyard of Xiangxuehai.

"When I was a child, when I was unhappy, I would run and sit alone in this tree. Sometimes I fall asleep while sitting, and when I wake up, I forget about what I was unhappy about. This time, Xie Donglian's voice was surprisingly gentle, whispering in her ear.

A scene suddenly appeared in Situ Ying's mind.

A small delicate and beautiful little boy wearing a big red arrow-sleeved robe, sleeping under this plum blossom, when he woke up, there seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't remember what was unpleasant before. He opened his eyes, stretched out his hand, and held a fluttering colorful butterfly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth......

The hard shell in Situ Ying's sleeve suddenly broke a hole, revealing the soft inside.

Vice Minister Xie Dong, who seems to be omnipotent, actually has unhappy times......

Situ Yingsleeve stretched out his arm, grabbed Xie Donglian's neck for the first time in the world, and pulled him down......
