Xin'er is beautiful, dances charmingly, and is good at making incense. Although she is a dancing girl, she is also a straightforward person, and she especially admires Pei Ye's pride in abandoning prejudice and becoming brothers with the Southern Barbarians.

Hearing that the patriarch sent her to Pei Ye, Xin'er was even more overjoyed, and immediately changed into Nanban clothes, put on a short jacket and a flower skirt, and followed Pei Ye to the Central Plains.

But Rao is like this, Xin'er can't change the popularity of the Southern Barbarians in her bones, Mrs. Pei naturally doesn't like such a flamboyant and bewitching woman, Xin'er is also quite self-aware, and she lives in another courtyard and never makes trouble.

Xin'er has lived in another courtyard for more than two years, Pei Ye only asked the house to serve food and clothing, but rarely mentioned it, and now suddenly asked like this, which made Duofu wonder.

"Young Master...... Could it be that you want Xin'er to move out? Dofo asked with some concern.

It's a fact that Xin'er looks good, but there is a saying that beauty is demonic. Madame doesn't like that kind of woman, so the young master had better not mess with it.

I couldn't before, and now as the Marquis of Xiling, I can't.

Duofu was worried, and he became more and more unable to understand the young master's thoughts.

The young master was moody, unpredictable, and from time to time a sentence came out that made him stunned. Fang just dropped the jade, and suddenly asked about Xin'er again, even he, a little servant who had been serving the young master for more than ten years, was stupid.

Pei Ye half-leaned, lifted the curtain and looked outside, as if he was thinking about something.

A ray of sunlight poured in, and a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Send Xin'er to the Xinning Marquis Mansion." He said lightly and lowered the curtain.

Su Xue followed the guy back to the hospital to find Zhang Xiang, and Zhang Xiang put down the small scale in his hand. The god mysteriously pointed to the backyard. He whispered, "Third Miss." Someone over there is looking for you. ”

Su Xue looked in the direction that Zhang Xiang was pointing, but immediately, she turned around and looked at Zhang Xiang with a different point.

Just now he called her Miss Three.

Zhang Xiang didn't care about Su Xue's inquiring gaze anymore, pointed over there again, and urged: "Come over quickly, there is me here in the medical hall." ”

Su Xue saw that he was in a hurry, so she could only respond.

She already had some anticipation in her heart. When she went out to take a look, as she expected, it was the maid from Jiangfu.

No wonder Zhang Xiang didn't let Ah Zheng come over.

But what did the maids of Jiangfu do when they found here?

The old lady is sick again?

This was the first thought that flashed through Su Xue's mind.

But the maid didn't look like it was in the old lady's house, but it looked like ...... The second old man's house.

Su Xue's eyes became more solemn, and she stepped forward quickly, turning around and signaling Miaomeng to stand at the entrance of the backyard to control the wind.

"But my father is looking for me to go back?" Pulling the maid to a corner where no one was around, Su Xue asked.

The maid looked a little anxious, panting and nodded: "Exactly, the second master is waiting for you in Rongde Hall, and I want you to go back immediately!"

"So urgent?" Su Xue narrowed her eyes. Then he asked, "What did you say it was for?" ”

The maid shook her head: "The second master didn't say anything." It was Narcissus who came to tell the little ones to do their best. The carriage is already waiting at the door of the medical hall, if the third lady still has something to do, why don't you leave Miaomeng for a while? ”

The maid pointed to Miaomeng.

Su Xue glanced back at the lobby of the medical hall, the medical hall is a little busy these days, but it is not necessary for her to be here.

After thinking for a while, he turned around and said, "No need, Miaomeng will go back together." You go and let the groom drive the carriage to the back door, and I won't go out through the main entrance of the infirmary. ”

The maid nodded vigorously after hearing this: "It's still the third lady who is thoughtful, and the little one will go immediately!" ”

Su Xue turned around and asked Miaomeng to give Zhang Xiang a message, and then got into the carriage from the back door and returned to Jiangfu.

She subconsciously guessed that her father wanted to talk to her about delaying her entry into Beijing.

The carriage stopped outside the East Corner Gate, Su Xue stepped on the footstool and was helped down by Miaomeng, and just after passing through a moon cave door, she saw Narcissus coming up.

Narcissus saluted Su Xue, raised her head and glanced at the maid in front of her, who immediately bowed her head and stepped aside.

Miaomeng still held Su Xue's arm tightly, and had no intention of retreating.

Narcissus glanced at Miaomeng, smiled slightly embarrassed and said, "The second master hurried back to Rongde Hall as soon as he got out, and he had something important to talk to the third lady." ”

Looking at Narcissus's pointed gaze, Su Xue turned her head and whispered, "You just wait here, Narcissus will come out and call you if something happens." ”

Miaomeng let go of Su Xue and took a step back, but she still couldn't help but say, "Miss, since you want to go to the second master, don't you have to go back to the house to change your clothes?" ”

Narcissus smiled again: "Why does the third lady need to be restrained in these small sections? The second master has been waiting for a long time, so the third lady will go over with the little one. ”

Su Xue smiled at Narcissus and agreed very much. When she was in front of others, she had to pay attention from time to time, but in the face of the second master, she relaxed a lot.

The second master will never be like the eldest wife and the second wife, and make a big fuss about her indecency by half a point.

Narcissus led Su Xue into the door of Rongde Hall, and then bowed inside, saying, "Second master, third lady is here." ”

With that, he bowed his head and respectfully retreated outside to guard.

Su Xuefu took two more steps forward, squatted slightly and shouted, "Father." ”

The second old man stood with his hands in his hands, raised his head slightly and looked at the four-character plaque engraved with "lofty aspirations" on the green sandalwood trim in the middle of Rongde Hall.

After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth: "It's really fast, it's almost sixteen years in a flash......"

He always turned his back to Su Xue, as if talking to himself.

Su Xue looked at the second master, and then looked at the plaque, the four characters of Zhicun Gao are strong and powerful, and there is a row of small characters in the lower left corner, which reads "Xianglin Jushi Book in the first month of the year of Wuzi".

Su Xue once heard the old lady say that her father liked to write and paint like her grandfather, and she also had a nickname like Xianglin Jushi.

And the year of Wuzi is not the year in which this host was born?

Su Xue was blind, that year was not only the birth of the host, but also the year of Feng's death......

Raising his head again, the second master had already turned around, and Su Xue could see the vicissitudes in his eyes clearly. I don't know why. It seems that the bottom of my heart hurts too.

The scene at the ancestral tomb in Xishan on that day is still vivid. The second master at that time seemed to be like this.

How happy the parents loved the child, she couldn't know in her previous life, but in this body, she realized some clues, although there was a little bitterness in this happiness.

She knew that the second master loved Feng deeply, but she didn't know how much she loved. She imagined more than once that if the Feng family had not had a difficult birth, would the current Jiang Mansion be a different situation?

Just thinking about it. The second master opened his mouth: "It seems that if I don't talk about it, you forgot about it again." ”

Su Xue was stunned.

The second old man sighed and said, "The day after tomorrow is your mother's birthday, from today onwards, you don't go to the hospital again, stay in the room and fast for three days." ”

No wonder my father was so sad, it turned out to be Feng's birthday.

Thinking of this, Su Xue couldn't help but be secretly surprised, it turned out that the birthdays of the Feng family and the eldest lady were so close.

The eldest lady was making preparations for a grand birthday banquet yesterday, which made the house flutter, but in fact, the eldest lady's birthday is on the ninth day of the next month, and there are still more than ten days to count.

Feng is in the day after tomorrow. It's March 30th.

Such a memorable day, the host can't even remember. It can be seen that she really has no feelings for her mother.

Su Xue pursed her lips, looked at the eyes of the second master, and said solemnly: "Father, rest assured, my daughter will never forget it again." Since it is the mother's birthday, it should be fasted for ten days, and the daughter will not be left behind for a day. ”

The second old man was slightly stunned, and a smile finally appeared on his face full of sadness: "It's rare that you can understand Daddy, no matter how much gossip you have, Daddy can listen to it." ”

Su Xue frowned slightly, gossiping?

Could it be ......

Thinking about her, she couldn't help but be stunned, could it be that this is the reason why her father refused to enter Beijing immediately?

Su Xue looked at the second master in a daze, her lips trembled, but she didn't know how to ask.

But the second master's expression had already given her the answer.

When Narcissus sent her out of Rongde Hall, Su Xue couldn't help but ask, "I just told my father that I would fast for ten days, I don't know who else in the house besides me and my father will fast together?" ”

Narcissus replied, "The old lady has been fasting since the middle of the month, and the second lady said that she would go with the old lady, and she would only let the kitchen deliver light vegetarian food." ”

Su Xue nodded.

The old lady's fasting is her own business, and it has nothing to do with the Feng family, and the second wife wants to follow the old lady to show her favor, and it has nothing to do with the Feng family.

"Do you know how many days my father is fasting?" Su Xue asked again.

"Why did the third lady forget jì? At this time, the second master has to fast for two months. Narcissus said with a wry smile.

Su Xue was taken aback, to be honest, she really didn't expect it to be two months so long. But seeing that Narcissus was puzzled, he hurriedly smiled again and said, "I'll just ask again, I'm afraid you won't remember." ”

Seeing Su Xue laughing at her, Narcissus hurriedly said, "How dare you not remember the second master's matter?" ”

Seeing this, Su Xue immediately said: "It's good to remember, then tell me, what did the eldest master say when he came to his father last time, why did his father refuse to enter Beijing immediately after hearing it?" ”

Narcissus was stunned, she didn't expect that the third lady would force her to ask her about it. Suddenly, I felt as if I had fallen into the trap of the third lady.

The eldest master and the second master specially instructed Narcissus that no one could tell those things, and Narcissus wanted to be vague, but when she saw that the third lady's eyes were bright and she was looking at her directly, she was a little timid.

"What can the eldest master talk to the second master? It's just some common words, how can it involve the second master's entry into Beijing to take up a post? After that, he hurriedly explained, "What's more, the second master's refusal to enter Beijing immediately to take up his post is to fast for two months, which is for Aunt Feng's business, and has nothing to do with the eldest master." ”

Narcissus lowered his head slightly, as if he didn't want to be seen with a different face.

Su Xue looked at Narcissus for a while before continuing to walk out, and said, "Grandmother is very angry about this, and you'd better not talk about your father's fasting from time to time." ”

Narcissus raised her eyes and glanced at Su Xue in some surprise, and when she saw Su Xue's serious face, she hurriedly responded: "Yes, the little one understands." ”

"No need to send it anymore, go back." Su Xue said and quickened her pace.

As she walked, she pondered the deep meaning of Narcissus's words.

The eldest master must have come to tell his father something important, and it was inconvenient for people to know.

And my father decided not to enter Beijing to serve after the eldest master left, which happened to make the old lady misunderstand. (To be continued......)

PS: I don't have time because I made my father's birthday, sorry, I'm late......
