Ask for orders, ask for tickets, lalala~~~~~~

===================================================

Mrs. Guan went and returned for more than an hour, which surprised Zhen Xuan, she held her chin to watch Zhen Qiong's patterns, and said, "What changes have happened this time?" ”

Zhen Qiong is painting a set of lotus flowers, starting from the sharp corners of the small lotus, to receiving the infinite blue of the lotus leaves, and then to picking the white and delicate lotus roots in the mud.

This is Zhen Xuanyang's painting, saying that the Jin family bought a handheld screen during the Chinese New Year, and the four screens reflect each other, which is very flattering. Zhen Xuan saw that her aunt liked it, so she came up with a set of embroidery to express her heart. Zhen Qiong usually writes and paints, and she feels a little fun listening to what Zhen Xuan said, so she should go.

Zhen Qiong carefully put down the pen, the flower embroidery pattern is different from the ordinary painting, she is extra careful: "The changes that this lotus can have make you think about it all, what other changes can there be?" ”

Zhen Xuan burst out laughing: "Sixth sister, this is making fun of me." ”

didn't say anything, but I still remembered the intention of Mrs. Guan in my heart, but I waited for half an hour, and I didn't see Mrs. Guan come out.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, it was Liuzhu who came.

Liuzhu didn't come in directly, but called a little maid at the gate of the courtyard and asked, "I heard that Miss Seven is here?" ”

The little maid nodded and called Momoya.

Tao Aya was chatting with the maids outside the house, and when she heard the voice, she saw that it was Liuzhu, and she was stunned for a moment, and said, "The girl is looking for our miss?" But what's the matter with the third old lady? ”

Liuzhu bent his eyes. said: "Our old lady invited Miss Seven to come over to listen to the play." ”

Zhen Xuan listened to Tao Aya's words, glanced at the flowing bamboo standing outside through the window, and pouted: "Isn't this just a change?" ”

Tao Aya was left in front of the water, and Liuzhu invited Zhen Xuan to go upstairs alone, and Liuzhu didn't have any breath along the way, but said that he knew the Tao when he arrived. Zhen Xuan pondered for a long time. I don't know what Mrs. Lu Dao will say to Mrs. Jia again. I couldn't guess what the third old lady was going to ask me.

The third old lady was not listening to the play, sitting behind the desk, fiddling with the broken potted plants, frowning and sighing from time to time. A look of heartache and chagrin.

Seeing Zhen Xuan coming, Liumei silently took a futon and put it down in front of the desk, winking at Zhen Xuan.

Zhen Xuan took a deep breath. stepped forward and knelt down: "Qi Niang Zhenxuan, please the third uncle and grandfather." The voice was neither light nor heavy, his breath was calm, and his hands were on the ground. The forehead hit the ground, and the force was just right.

The third old lady picked up a piece of gravel and looked at it again, her eyes narrowed for a while, and she shook her head and put it down after looking at it for a long time, and when she saw Zhen Xuan still kneeling, she said, "Raise your head." ”

only let him raise his head and not let him get up, Zhen Xuan straightened his back. Waiting for the third old lady to ask.

"Seven girls," said the third old lady. On the other hand, he picked up another stone, "The events of the day when I went to the street in the first month, you should tell me carefully and carefully, and don't miss a word." ”

More than a month has passed since that day, Zhen Xuan made a look of trying to remember, and compared with the previous statement, she told the story again.

After hearing this, the third old lady didn't see any emotion on his face, and said: "You left first that day, what did Man Yue do later, do you know the Tao or not?" ”

When Zhen Xuan heard this, her face turned white, but fortunately, her thinking was quite clear, and she immediately realized what the third old lady cared about.

The third old lady remembered what Mrs. Liugu had said that day, and Zhen Xuan obviously knew what Lu had said in advance, but she kept silent, watching things happen little by little, and became a spectator. In fact, it was not only her, but also Zhen Ying and Zhen Lin, the three of them made this decision together, without telling the other sisters, let alone leaking in front of the elders.

Zhen Xuan sniffed, if she showed her clues in front of the third old lady at this time, she would have pulled Zhen Ying and Zhen Lin into the water together, which would not do her any good.

Kowtowed, Zhen Xuan said in a deep voice: "Qi Niang doesn't know what Cousin Lu Dao Su did after that. ”

This sentence is not a lie, they just guessed that Su Manyue had done something, and as for what it was, they didn't know anything at all.

The third old lady stared at Zhen Xuan for a long time, and said, "Just now, the official media came and mentioned a handkerchief, which is Manyue's, and now the uncle of the Yan family is in his hands." ”

Zhen Xuan only felt a chill behind her back, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she took several deep breaths before she didn't shed tears.

People are doing it, the sky is watching, there is really a cycle of cause and effect in this world, Mo Yan was framed by Su Manyue, and one side was convicted; And now, Su Manyue himself is trapped in a handkerchief and can't get out.

"After that, Cousin Su gave Uncle Yan a handkerchief?" Zhen Xuan calmed down, looked up at the third old lady, and said, "If I had known the Tao at that time, I would never have let my cousin do this." Teach and receive in private, whether it is good for my cousin or the Pei family, it is not good to spread it. On the day of the banquet, Cousin Su was also invited, and after we went, we saw that many people at the banquet were Miss Cousin together, so we didn't think much about it. It wasn't until that day when my sixth aunt asked me what I was talking about, that I learned that the official media of Lu Dao had come to the door. ”

Zhen Xuan replied very carefully, the third old lady was not satisfied with Su Manyue's matter of giving Uncle Yan as a concubine, if he knew that there were still their sisters standing by, I was afraid that this matter would not be good. The third old lady will not let the Pei family sisters suffer for Su Manyue, which does not mean that they can still be partial when they know that they have different thoughts.

"Miss Biao's concubine to the side branch of the palace is not a decent thing for the Pei family." Zhen Xuan thought about what the Zhou family said to the third old lady that day, and said cautiously, "Qi Niang has some friendship with the ladies in the palace, and she will have to move around more in the future, if she knew in advance, she would not do such an embarrassing thing." ”

The third old lady picked up the teacup, took a sip, and sighed long: "I have always felt that you are a clever girl. Alright, you get up first. ”

Liumei came over to help Zhen Xuan up, maybe she had been kneeling for a long time, her knees were swollen, Zhen Xuan didn't stand firmly, and leaned on Liumei.

Liumei smiled at Zhenxuan and said, "Miss Seven, let's sit on the side for a while." ”

As soon as Zhen Xuan sat down, he saw Liuzhu take the door and go out. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from the stairs, and he walked very slowly, and Zhen Xuan understood that it was Su Manyue who came.

When Su Manyue came in and saw Zhen Xuan, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, and then she pursed her lips and smiled. Somehow, Zhen Xuan also smiled.

Su Manyue is not the same Su Manyue as before, if half a year ago, Su Manyue listened to Zhen Xuan's words just now, she would have jumped up and confronted her, dug out all the lies in it, and threw it naked in front of the third old lady. And now Su Manyue will not raise a single word of objection to those words.

In the last conversation, Zhen Xuan could see that Su Manyue had accepted that she had made the wrong person and expressed the wrong feelings, but Mrs. Jia was unwilling.

The third old lady was a little tired, leaning on the Taishi's chair, and her voice was full of tiredness: "Why didn't you talk about the handkerchief last time?" ”

Su Manyue blinked, frowned and thought for a while before saying, "I forgot." ”

Liumei glanced at Su Manyue, took the fox brocade and covered it for the third old lady, and said, "Miss Cousin, the slave has a lot of words." The old lady worked hard for this, and he couldn't sleep well at night, but you forgot such an important thing, and the old lady couldn't help with three heads and six arms. If you have any thoughts, say them earlier, don't hold it in your heart and let the elders suffer. To put it mildly, it's really true that the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, and the slaves and maids see it in their eyes, except for the courage to say such a few words, there is really no way. ”

Su Manyue lowered her head and said lightly: "I really forgot." ”

The third old lady patted Liumei's hand, signaled her not to say more, coughed heavily, he cheered up, and said: "I know that you have a grudge against me for the sake of the last thing, so you won't tell me about such a thing." I thought that this was not a good family business, and I would go back if I could, but now that I am like this, I can't do it without getting married. Your reputation, the reputation of the Pei family, is tied to your handkerchief. I don't care about the superfluous things, you pack up your things by yourself and prepare the Yan family's sedan chair to pick it up. ”

When Su Manyue heard this, her face was as usual, she only responded, and went back.

Zhen Xuan didn't stay any longer, and when she went downstairs, she was still thinking about whether Su Manyue would wait for her downstairs, but when she saw the lonely figure of Tao Aya in the courtyard, she secretly said that she really thought too much.

Tao Aya was already waiting in a hurry, Zhen Xuan had not heard any news for so long, and Liuzhu came down in the middle, she wanted to ask a few words but was stopped by Liuzhu, until Su Manyue followed Liuzhu back, and Tao Aya's heart sank to the bottom of the water.

Now that she finally saw Zhen Xuan coming, Tao Aya hurriedly greeted her and asked in a low voice, "Miss, is there anything wrong?" ”

Zhen Xuan held Tao Aya's hand, her heart was a little more steady, and she shook her head and said, "I'm fine." Let's go. ”

Tao Aya didn't speak all the way, and when she finally returned to Qing'an Hall, closed the door, she poured a cup of tea and handed it to Zhen Xuan, and said, "Miss Biao is embarrassed again?" ”

There must be a result in this matter, the road was chosen by Su Manyue herself, and it has nothing to do with Zhen Xuan if she chooses right or wrong, she just wants her to finish this road, and for the sisters of the Pei family, they will be relieved.

This is not a trap that fell into the ground, and there will be no sympathy at all, this is a struggle in the boudoir, but if Zhenxuan has the slightest softness, he will lose all against Su Manyue.

In his last life, he suffered a big loss in the hands of Su Manyue and lost his net worth and his life. Zhen Xuan was not a fool, she remembered how deep her hatred was before Zhen Che died in her arms. This time, she didn't want to go down the old path again, and if she could make the road in front of her smoother, she wouldn't mind being a villain once.

Holding the tea cup, warmth seeped in from her fingertips, and her body also warmed up, Zhen Xuan took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, blinked her eyes, and said with a smile: "It's me who embarrass her."
