"This is what Miss Jiang sent to me, right?"

In Jiang Ying's room, Gu Zaili placed a delicate brown-red box on the pear wood round table between the two.

Jiang Ying originally didn't know what she meant, but at this moment, seeing that she had sent things back, it didn't seem like she was "thanking" as Hua Changjing said, so she secretly sighed in her heart, but she just nodded politely on her face.

Gu Zaili smiled and asked, "It's so decent, why did Miss Jiang suddenly give me such a heavy gift, it really makes me panic." ”

But there was not the slightest hint of "panic" on his face.

"I followed Sister Hua to live in your mansion, which added a lot of trouble to the house, and I never wanted to go, so I asked people to prepare a small gift and send it to each room, which is a heart." Jiang Ying's tone was very respectful.

"Miss Jiang is polite." Gu Zaili took back the hand that was placed on the box, put it on her lap casually, and said: "Miss Jiang is generous, and this gift is also carefully chosen, but I don't like to wear these golden and green things since I was a child, and I put them there to fall into the dust when I take them back - so I still ask Miss Jiang to take things back, things don't matter, I accept this intention." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ying finally figured out what she meant.

Having said so much, it is nothing more than one sentence: I don't like what you send and I don't want it.

Looking at her again, although she didn't wear anything too gorgeous, there were two bracelets with plain silver engravings, two pairs of butterfly hairpins, and the pair of pendants with fish spitting beads still hanging on her earlobes were quite exquisite.

"That's my omission, I didn't ask Miss Deng Er about her likes and dislikes in advance." Jiang Ying's gaze turned back. Follow her words.

So?

Gu Zaili looked at her, but saw her holding the teacup, and it was clear that she had no intention of continuing to talk.

That's it......?

Normally, in this case, shouldn't she say something to persuade her to accept it?

Although she really doesn't want to accept it, how can she take it?

How will she speak next?

Looking at Jiang Ying's quiet appearance of eating tea without hurry, Gu Zaili suddenly felt irritable.

At this time, Jiang Ying raised her head, closed the teacup, and let out a thoughtful "oh".

…… Oh?

Gu Zaili looked at her inexplicably.

Jiang Ying had a sudden expression of "just remembered". asked her, "Since Miss Deng Er doesn't like these daughters' ornaments. I don't know what you like on weekdays? ”

“……”

The corners of Gu Zaili's mouth twitched.

This is...... I realized what to say!

How many beats is this man's thinking slow?

If it weren't for the serious look on the little girl in front of her, and the slightest impurity in her eyes, she would even suspect that Jiang Ying was deliberately pretending to be stupid and teasing her!

But what is this...... How do you want her to answer?

As soon as she answered, wouldn't it be like picking and choosing and deliberately asking her for gifts?

"Miss Jiang doesn't have to be polite." Gu Zaili simply skimmed the topic out of the way. Followed by. He asked directly: "I saw that Miss Jiang was extremely generous. It's not like an ordinary girl, I'll take the liberty of asking here...... What do Miss Jiang's parents do for a living? ”

The topic suddenly turned to her parents at home, and Jiang Ying was stunned for a moment. Later, he said: "The parents at home are blessed, and they are long gone. ”

It was just a slightly direct question, but when she answered it like this, it really became "presumptuous".

Gu Zaili was stunned again, she didn't expect that the girl in front of her was an orphan girl whose parents died early.

Although I didn't get the answer I wanted to hear, I still didn't know Jiang Ying's exact background, but this question was really not suitable to talk about it anymore.

"I've never heard of Miss Jiang before...... I was really embarrassed to accidentally offend Miss Jiang's sore spot. ”

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Ying smiled generously, although she didn't see the real apology on Gu Zaili's face.

"It's been a while since Miss Jiang stayed in the Taishou Mansion, but it's the first time I've officially met Miss Jiang - I remember that when Miss Jiang first entered the mansion, she met Miss Hua's father and mother, and I was there at the time, but I didn't have the opportunity to talk to Miss Jiang. As for the second ...... It was the night before yesterday when Miss Jiang was sent back to the house by Prince Ying and Princess Dongzhu of Xiling, and Miss Jiang's physical condition at that time must have never noticed that I was also present, right? ”

Jiang Ying heard that Gu Zaili seemed to have the intention of "chatting" with her, so she nodded: "It is indeed the first time that Miss Deng Er has officially met." ”

"yes." Gu Zaili smiled and said, "Before that, I didn't know that there was a righteous sister of Prince Xiling living in my house. ”

This was a temporary remark made by Song Yuanju in a hurry that night, and he also deliberately mentioned it to Jiang Ying later, just to prevent her from "revealing her stuffing".

Therefore, Jiang Ying was not surprised when she heard the words at this moment, and only replied with a smile: "What the righteous sister said is just a casual joke by Prince Ying, and Miss Deng Er doesn't have to take it too seriously." ”

Gu Zaili naturally won't believe this, where is there any reason for this kind of thing to joke casually? It's just that it hasn't been completely disclosed to the public, so she said very cooperatively: "Miss Jiang, don't worry, I have heard about this matter, and I haven't mentioned it to anyone else." ”

Jiang Ying also nodded and smiled appreciatively, and the atmosphere was harmonious and pleasant for a while.

And Jiang Ying became more and more confused about Gu Zaili's purpose for coming to her.

Under the guise of returning things, this girl is still in a good mood and sometimes bad, what is this trying to do?

Gu Zaili took a sip of tea, then pursed her lips, and asked a little casually: "Speaking of which, I remember that when Miss Jiang came back the night before yesterday, she met me and the second son of Jin in the verandah...... Looking at the situation at the time, the girl seemed to know the second son of Jin? ”

When Jiang Ying heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt that the whole person was unhappy.

What did she mean by touching "her and Brother Jin"?

Why does this sound so uncomfortable?

Gu Zaili secretly looked at her face, but the other party looked blank. I can't guess what my heart is doing.

Receiving her gaze, Jiang Ying sorted out her emotions and pretended to say, "The relationship is okay." ”

Acceptable?

Gu Zaili's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked again: "Then Miss Jiang should know about the matter of the second son of Jin, right?" ”

This face has changed!

Jiang Ying looked at the face full of hope in front of her in surprise.

Where is the alienation when you first enter the door?

Looking at such a pair of eyes, Jiang Ying became more and more uncomfortable.

"Acceptable ......"

Again, those two words.

Gu Zaili looked even happier, her sparkling eyes as if she had found a shortcut to her destination.

"Miss Deng Er asked why this is the reason?" Jiang Ying had to pretend to be stupid and ask, but Gu Zaili's answer made her regret what she asked.

"Don't hide it from Miss Jiang, I have been in love with the second son of Jin for a long time." Gu Zaili looked straight at Jiang Ying. The eyes burned.

"......" Jiang Ying was dumbfounded.

This—that's too straightforward, isn't it?!

It's more direct than when she chased Brother Jin back then!

"I'm a person who doesn't like to beat around the bush. Now, I told Miss Jiang the truth-the reason why I came here today is to find out if Miss Jiang and the second son of Jin are familiar with each other. Gu Zaili felt that there was no need to hide it, and the few rounds of gradual temptation had required all her patience, and now. said bluntly: "Miss Ruojiang is willing to help me." Help me understand the words that are close to the second son of Jin. I must be grateful to Miss Jiang! ”

Jiang Ying opened her mouth, but she didn't know what else to say.

For the first time in her life, she was splashed with such a large basin of dog blood. She felt like she was going to drown in this pool of blood!

Could this feeling be the legendary drunken dream of death?

- The girl in front of her is actually the man who asked her to help get her!

Brother Jin is so sought-after, does he know it himself?

"Miss Jiang wants to come from a rich background, or disdain my so-called generous thanks, but as long as the girl is willing to help me this time, if the girl has any difficulties in the future, even if she informs me, if I can do it, I will never shake my head!" Gu Zaili's face was "righteous and cloudy".

Jiang Yingmuran's expression was finally broken, and he looked at Gu Zaili with a weak expression.

Girl, I sincerely appreciate your boldness, but things ...... It's really not what you think......

"Miss Deng Er, I can't help you with this matter."

She was a normal person, and she couldn't do such a thing that was extremely against her will.

"Why?" The bright look on Gu Zaili's face immediately froze.

Why?

The question is simple, but it's also complex.

Jiang Ying fixed her expression and said something that made Gu Zaili shocked.

"I also like Jin Er Gongzi."

"What?" Gu Zaili looked at her stunned.

"What a coincidence."

Jiang Ying's expression was a capital letter of helplessness.

......At the same time, Gu Zaili also felt that someone had a basin of dog blood upside down on her head.

What is this called?

She came here to find a helper, why didn't she find a helper, but she tossed out a rival in love?

Looking at each other, the atmosphere that suddenly fell silent was indescribably disobedient and weird.

After the silence, the first person to speak was Gu Zaili.

"Fair play!" She squeezed the words out between her teeth.

"......" Jiang Ying was silent for a moment and said, "I don't compete with you." ”

She didn't seem to need to fight.

“…… Don't you like him too? Gu Zaili couldn't help frowning—this feeling of being thrown out and thrown back was really frustrating.

Jiang Ying nodded, and then explained seriously: "The women over there are more reserved, and they can't do things that openly pursue men. ”

This is blatant lying without blushing.

is simply putting himself and Liang Wenqing, the two best of the cheeky, aside from it......

But Gu Zaili believed it.

Although her father Deng Taishou is a Han Chinese, but her mother is not, so although her surname is Deng, she has another name of 'Gu Zaili', she has been raised in the northwest since she was a child, and she is used to being bold, but she has not heard of the many rules that Han women in the south have to abide by.

And every time she hears this, in addition to scoffing, she is also happy. Fortunately, my father didn't support me as a Han woman.

Gu Zaili moved her brows, looked at Jiang Ying in confusion and said, "Since you don't plan to fight with me, then why do you want to be honest with me?" ”

"Because I don't want to help you." When these cautious words came out, Jiang Ying didn't feel embarrassed at all.

To tell the truth, it's far easier than letting her go against her intention because of unnecessary 'affection'.

Hearing this, Gu Zaili was speechless.

The four eyes face each other again.

This time, no one spoke again.

No one thought that in their lifetime, they would meet such an unusual love rival as the other party......

……

In the next few days, Jiang Ying listened to Song Yuanju's words and did not go to the barracks to see Jin Qi again.

I thought about sending a letter to him, and finding a credible reason such as being reluctant to go out due to bad weather recently to make him feel at ease, but after thinking about it, she didn't meet Brother Jin very often before, but she didn't have to be so deliberate, and it also saved Brother Jin from being suspicious and suspicious of Brother Song's head, which brought unnecessary trouble; And because he didn't want to lift the pen to see his own bad words, the idea of sending a message was gone.

I haven't done anything in the past few days, so I just stayed in this small courtyard of Taishou Mansion to toss delicious food.

And Hua Changjing, who was 'served' by her every day with all kinds of delicious food and drink, finally got the pardon order to get out of bed and walk around after the doctor came today.

"I really thought I was going to spend this year's birthday lying on the bed......"

Hua Changjing shook his arm, stretched up and down, and sighed comfortably.

Jiang Ying peeled pine nuts on the side, and asked with a smile when she saw this, "Now that I can walk, how do I plan to live?" ”

"For this year's birthday banquet, my uncle has arranged it in advance for Miss!" Ah Ju, who was struggling to wipe the table and chair with a rag on her waist, raised her head from behind the chair when she heard this, and interjected: "It's in Lingxi Xiaoyuan!" ”

"You talk a lot!" Hua Changjing gave her a roll of the eyes.

Jiang Ying asked, "What kind of place is that?" ”

"Well...... Ah Ju thought for a while and said, "There are those who sing music, those who play the piano, and there are many delicious foods." ”

Jiang Ying directly skipped the words in front of her, and only listened to the words 'delicious'.

said solemnly: "The place arranged by Brother Shi must not be wrong." ”

Hua Changjing's birthday was three days later.

'Lingxi Garden' is located on the most lively street in Yunzhou City, is a very famous local music hall, but it is also one of the few serious music halls in Yunzhou City, and most of the people who come here are some elegant and elegant literati who love various instrumental music.

Of course, this is only the majority, and it does not represent the whole story.

For example, Jiang Ying, who came over with Hua Changjing today, has nothing to do with enjoyment, and is purely eating and drinking.

and, a young man in brocade clothes who was noisy and making a noise on the second floor.

"What's sick? Why did she get sick once my son came! ”

As soon as Jiang Ying looked up, she saw a familiar face.
