Chapter 292: Surprise (5)
The first one, there is something to do in the afternoon of 96, and this chapter is shorter.
There is a shift in the evening -
A quiet room.
There had been no sound in the room for a long time.
Zhiqi sat on the pestle outside, and glanced inside with her chin propped up, through the curtain, she couldn't see the situation inside, only that the road was very quiet, as if she had stopped in this spring afternoon.
She didn't move until the sound of soft footsteps came from outside.
When Zhiqi raised her eyes, the door of the study was pushed open, and the light shining in from outside fell on the floor tiles, which made her squint involuntarily for a moment.
It wasn't until he got used to the light that he saw clearly that it was the clouds that opened the door.
Yun lifted his chin in the room.
Zhiqi shook his head, made a silent gesture, tiptoed over, lifted the corner of the curtain and looked into the back room.
Zhen Xuan sat on the chair, and Tao Aya knelt at her feet, no one spoke or moved.
Zhiqi sighed in her heart, lowered the curtain, and it was not until she walked outside the house, standing in the afterglow, that she felt that the air around her came alive, and she was no longer motionless.
Yun Zai came over and asked in a low voice, "Grandma and Miss Momoya are still talking?" ”
Zhiqi lowered his eyes, pursed his lips and shook his head: "I haven't heard for a long time, I don't know that it's been an afternoon." ”
"Look at this hour, the second master is coming back soon, grandma's situation ......"
Yun Zai only said half of what he said, but he understood it.
When Xia Yiqing came back and saw Zhen Xuan in such a state, the people under them couldn't escape. Forget about getting a penalty. It's that they don't serve well. It's just that Zhen Xuan is pregnant in the end.
He took a breath. She is really confused, obviously Zhenxuan needs to rest more, not tired, this afternoon, isn't it tiring?
"I'll go in and call Grandma." Zhiqi was about to enter the house as he spoke, but suddenly paused and turned his head to say to Yun Zai, "The second master is truthful." ”
Yun Zai nodded and said, "How dare you hide it from the second master." ”
I don't dare to hide it, and I really can't hide it.
Standing by the curtain. Called: "Grandma." ”
Zhen Xuan didn't move, she thought about it for an afternoon, those past events were circling in her mind, and the good and bad of this family affair were sorted out over and over again, but unfortunately the more she reasoned, the more chaotic it became, and when she reached the end, she didn't know the time of Lu Dao, nor what Lu Dao thought.
It's the same with Tao Aya, the tears have long stopped, but the hand holding Zhen Xuan has not let go.
I hear the sound of chess. Momoya looked blankly at the door and was stunned for a moment. Until she saw that the sun reflected through the window had turned red, she quickly stood up, but sat on her knees for an afternoon, her feet were already numb, and suddenly she couldn't exert her strength at all, and just got up half of her body and sat back down, and her teeth cracked in pain.
Zhen Xuan also came back to his senses and called Zhiqi in.
When Zhiqi saw Momo's appearance, he knew that her feet were numb, so he came over to help her, added strength to let her sit down on the side, and helped knead it twice.
Zhen Xuan asked, "What time is it?" ”
"It's almost time for Shenzheng, the second master is coming back soon." Zhiqi replied, and seeing that there were tears on Zhen Xuan's face, she was stunned and said, "Grandma will go back to Tianyi Courtyard first?" ”
Zhen Xuan noticed the gaze of the chessman, raised her hand and touched her cheek, the marks on her face made her a little surprised, she didn't notice that she was crying before.
The three masters and servants were about to go outside, when they heard Yun Zai shouting in the courtyard to say goodbye, it was Xia Yiqing who had returned.
Zhen Xuan hurriedly asked Zhiqi to wipe her face for her, trying to make the tears not obvious.
In the past, after Xia Yiqing returned home, if there was nothing important, he went straight back to Tianyi Courtyard, and after changing his clothes, he was ready to go to Tingfeng Yuan. As soon as it arrived today, someone reported that Qian Yiming had come, and Zhen Xuan went to the study to talk to Qian Yiming and Xia Jingqing.
I thought that after an afternoon, Zhen Xuan should have returned to the inner courtyard, but Xia Yiqing vaguely felt inappropriate in her heart, and went to the study, and sure enough, Yun Zai said that Zhen Xuan had been sitting here all afternoon.
Zhen Xuan said hello, but Xia Yiqing's eyes fell on Tao Aya, Tao Aya lowered her head, Xia Yiqing's eyes were sharp, and she saw the tears on her face.
Qian Yiming's visit must have been for Tao Aya, and looking at Tao Aya like this, it is not difficult for him to guess Zhen Xuan's hesitation.
In front of the two maids, Xia Yiqing didn't want to say much, so she only said to Zhen Xuan: "It's time to go back, don't ask your grandmother to wait." ”
Zhen Xuan should go down.
Entering the Tianyi Courtyard, the masters didn't have much smile on their faces, and the chess and peach aya also looked serious, and a few little maids shrunk their necks, and avoided them after inviting An.
The husband and wife entered the inner room, played chess to change Xia Yiqing's clothes, and came in with hot water, Zhen Xuan cleaned her face and put on makeup again.
When she heard Fengyuan, Xia Jingqing saw Xia Yiqing and Zhen Xuan, smiled stiffly and called "brother and sister-in-law", so she sat aside and didn't speak.
A meal is used calmly.
After the table was removed, Xia Jingqing wanted to go back to the front yard and called Mrs. Zheng to stop.
"You monkey, you don't want to leave until the last moment on weekdays, why are you going to slip away today?"
Xia Jingqing touched his nose and said, "The homework left by Mr. today has not been completed." ”
"Yo, I'm worried that I won't be able to finish my homework, this is the first time you've experienced it." Old Mrs. Zheng laughed as she spoke, and pulled him to sit down, "Tell me honestly, did you make your brother and sister-in-law unhappy?" ”
Xia Jingqing squeezed his eyebrows and wanted Xia Huqing to help him excuse him, but Mrs. Zheng was not easy to fool, and sent all the people who were waiting in the house out, and he had to make it clear, so he had to explain the matter of Qian Yiming coming to apologize to Tao Aya in the afternoon.
After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng was surprised in her heart, although Qian Yiming came to kowtow every year to say goodbye, but in his impression, it was still a young child who was drenched and trembling and wanted to ask his mother for medicine, and in the blink of an eye, it had been so many years.
laughed and scolded and drove Xia Jingqing out of the house, and Mrs. Zheng asked Zhen Xuan to help her into the house to rest.
There was no one else in the inner room, not even Liao's mother.
Mrs. Zheng sat down and said to Zhen Xuan: "It's the maid in your house, it stands to reason that I really shouldn't intervene in this mouth." This kid of the Qian family is a good boy, speaking of which, it is Tao Aya's maid who has climbed high. I can also guess why you refuse to nod, but this matter depends on the Qian boy, what is his plan, is he going to have a lifetime with his uncle? ”
When Zhen Xuan heard this, her heart moved, and she understood Mrs. Zheng's words.
Qian Yiming is a son-in-law, yes, but sooner or later, the Qian family will have to be separated, what will happen to Qian Yiming then? Can he take what he deserves to go out of the house with his mother and daughter-in-law? At that time, there is no need for a fierce daughter-in-law to deal with the concubines in the clan for his mother, will he treat this daughter-in-law well?
Zhen Xuan thanked Mrs. Zheng, and after the jade came in, she followed Xia Yiqing back to Tianyi Courtyard. (To be continued......)
