Chapter 19: It's another day of Shaoqing's doubts
Xu Nian was so tired that she wanted to go out for a walk when she was "staying with her".
By this time it was already halfway through the hour, and she walked tremblingly, her hands curled up, and she coughed from time to time.
She had just told Western Australia to do something else, but Zhu Ji was not there, and there was no one with her.
There were white things everywhere in the house, and as soon as the wind blew, Xu Nian was alone again, and he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
She has been silently reciting in her heart: not afraid, not afraid, sin deserves, sin deserves. I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid.
She wasn't really scared anymore.
She planned to go to the small pond to have a look, and when she passed by the large open courtyard in the middle of the Xu Mansion, she couldn't help but be attracted by the scenery here.
In the past, when she passed by this time, the scenery here was not so attractive, today it is quiet and abnormal, and it is night, the moon is crooked, Xu Nian looked at this scene at this time and felt that there was a special taste in his heart.
I saw that Xu Fu was everywhere and asked the master to beat the gravel with huge sums of money, and then moved here, slowly carved into such a mountain, and then opened up the spring water under the ground, so that it gushed naturally in the mountain.
There is a white lotus planted between the mountains and rivers, it is spring now, the lotus is still growing, I see it wrapping, unwilling to stretch out, if it is summer, it is a pair of small lotus to show sharp corners, only the dragonfly stands on the head of a different kind of beauty.
But now it's not bad, shy and shy, elegant and quiet like a woman.
There are also many trees planted here, and at night, Xu Nian can't see which one is which.
At this time, she suddenly saw a man in a silver robe sitting behind a tree, and his face could not be seen clearly.
She guessed that it would be one of the three who would still be here so late.
They have something to discuss with the main grandmother in the past few days to stay in the Xu Mansion, and they don't know why they stayed so late.
Xu Nian didn't want to delve into the reason, it had nothing to do with her, and it didn't benefit her.
However, looking at this person's figure, it should be Shen Yigui, Lord Shen Shaoqing.
Xu Nian didn't stay any longer, she quickened her pace, and it seemed that she didn't want to deal with this person.
I didn't think the man had noticed her.
"Second girl?" His voice was already as gentle as a mountain spring in the forest and a bonfire in the snow, so Shen Yigui's voice seemed even more striking at night.
He got up from the woods and waved his sleeve back, as if to slap the ashes.
Like an immortal, he was shooting ashes, somehow, a little disillusioned.
Then he walked over, his clothes flew over, and Xu Nian's heart somehow beat very fast.
This is not her home, how can it ...... Make her look like a thief? If you want to be weak-hearted, he is also weak-hearted!
She froze, not as hurried as she had just been.
"Why do you want to leave as soon as you see me?" His eyes were fixed on Xu Nian, and his voice did not fluctuate in the slightest, as if he was asking something very ordinary.
Xu Nianzhi was a little curious about what could make this Lord Shen Shaoqing's mood change.
Ever since she knew him, he seemed to have been this cold and cold look, and never saw him have any other emotions, and even if he had, he was angry and cold.
Maybe it's a case? Xu Nian guessed.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little funny, she suppressed her smile, and said a little restrainedly: "Lord Shen Shaoqing, it's just that the little woman doesn't want to disturb the purity of the adult, so she left." ”
Shen Shaoqing looked at Xu Nian lightly: "Oh? Isn't it because of a weak heart? ”
He thought that it was a little suspicious to go to this girl, so he said this, which can also be said to be a kind of temptation.
Xu Nian was surprised and exclaimed: "Why did your lord say this? Her red lips lifted slightly, as if to invite him to taste it.
But Shen Shaoqing didn't seem to see the "beautiful scenery" of this scene, so he still said in a faint voice: "It's nothing, I just hope that the second girl won't regret it." ”
Xu Nian felt a little annoyed in his heart, this person was simply talking nonsense, and a good person would only threaten others, intimidate others, and say things that made others dislike.
What does he know?
What regrets, she won't regret them, they all deserve it, uncle? He is also worthy, Xu Nian sneered in his heart.
Is it really noble for him to stand on the so-called moral high ground and criticize others in this way, and never pay attention to why others do what they do?
Don't persuade others to be kind without others suffering.
She suppressed the bitterness in her heart.
She suddenly understood why the people in office were so annoying, even if they had a lot of support, because they were powerful and could solve many things by pleasing them, and because they liked to meddle with them.
Xu Nian lost his previous respectful attitude, and said in a very plain tone: "I don't quite understand what Lord Shen is talking about, if there is nothing else, the little woman will retire first." ”
She didn't wait for him to say anything before she left on her own.
But when she turned to leave, she turned her head again and said, "My lord, it's better not to stay in someone else's house at such a late hour, it's very indecent." ”
Xu Nian can also be angry when she is angry, for example, what she said is very annoying.
Shen Yigui's eyes were full of doubts.
He didn't understand why Xu Nian suddenly changed his attitude and stayed where he was for a long time before leaving.
It was another day of confusion for Lord Shaoqing.
Xu Nian herself didn't know why she was so strange about Shen Yigui's attitude, obviously she didn't care about Xie Changan's attitude.
is that if Xie Changan said this today, she would never be angry, and she would not even have the slightest wave in her heart, because she didn't care, so she didn't care.
Perhaps things are heading for no return.
Neither of them noticed that there was one person who had been watching them in the dark, and that was Jewel.
She held a fluffy cloak in her hand, and the fur on it was fine fox fur, and she felt warm in her hand.
She wanted to send it to Xu Nian, but on the way, she met the two of them talking.
Zhu Ji always knew what the task she was assigned to Xu Nian's side was, so she chose to observe them in the shadows to see what else she could gain.
She looked at the change in the second girl's mood, and Zhuji's heart was full of understanding, it seems that the prince needs to hurry up, otherwise he will be snatched away.
When she thought of the prince, her face suddenly felt a little lonely, but she quickly covered it up.
She caught up with Xu Nian, and said without blushing: "Girl, put it on." ”
Xu Nian looked at the plain clothes in her hand, and nodded slightly with satisfaction, wearing this will not break the rules.
After Zhuji served her and put it on, Xu Nian returned to the mourning hall.
Seeing that the mourning hall was as quiet as before, Xu Nian breathed a sigh of relief, it was best that nothing happened, otherwise it would be bad for people to use the topic to play.
She knelt there again, her eyes down, not knowing what she was thinking.
Zhu Ji returned to her room and wrote notes as usual at night, as if she were writing a diary.
The content on the note was: Shen Yigui was talking to the girl, and the girl's mood changed a lot.
It didn't take long for Xie Changan to receive this note, and his slender and powerful hand rubbed the note with an uncertain expression.
Shen Yigui is it? It's so nice that someone who wants to hook up with me so soon.
You're a sissy and don't look in the mirror to see yourself.
Alas, that little girl hasn't been angry with me yet, no, she did, after she couldn't help but hug her that time.
His face flushed slightly when he thought of it, and now he thought it was something that had happened yesterday.
What did Shen Yigui say that guy could make Xu Nian feel so emotional.
Shen Yigui...... That's right, Xu Zhi's death.
Thinking of this, his eyebrows also frowned, and it seemed that he had to speed up his movements, otherwise Xu Nian would be in danger.
He already had a plan in his mind, and he was waiting to collect the nets and catch fish......
In the morning of the next day, Xu Xinxin's new broom swept away the floating soil on the coffin and poured it under the kang mat, which was called "sweeping the wealth", and then he put a copper coin on the corner of the coffin, which was called "lifting the coffin".
Mrs. Xu's eyes were red and she looked at her good grandson doing this.
Then Xu Xin shouted, and threw the mourning basin to the ground, with a crisp sound, the mourning basin was not broken!
It is said that this mourning basin is shaped like a flat blow, there is a hole in the middle of the bottom, on the brick, the brick is pasted with paper, making a book sleeve shape, and it will be shattered when it falls.
But this is not broken, which is a great inluck.
When a little maid burned incense this morning, the incense was also broken three times, which frightened the little girl, and when it came to Xu Xin's hand, the incense was barely inserted.
But now that something like this has happened, what does this make people think?
Everyone was frightened, and Mrs. Xu was the first to react, she cried: "Child, go with peace of mind, I will find the real culprit for you." She thought that Xu Zhi's soul had not yet dispersed, and it must still be in this Xu Mansion.
Xu Xin didn't believe in this evil, he raised his eyebrows, shouted for the second time, and threw the mourning basin for the second time, but the mourning basin was still not broken.
At this time, the voices in the mourning hall couldn't be stopped, and the words of a few elders gradually became unpleasant.
"Filial sons and grandsons have to be pious and have to be attentive, you ......"
"I don't think it's because of this, it's because Xu Zhi's death is unknown, and the soul of injustice can't be dispersed for a long time."
"Eh, you can't say that, I think Xu Xin can't come to drop this basin."
The main grandmother was not happy when she heard this, and said in a calm voice: "My grandson is the eldest son of his in-laws, why is he not qualified, is it possible that Xu He, the son of the concubine, will they do it!" ”
Even though the main grandmother was very sad, this majesty was still there, and it calmed these elders at once.
"Grandma, let me try again." Xu Xindao.
The main grandmother nodded.
He shouted a third time, fell the mourning basin three times, and it was still there.
At this time, everyone's eyes became subtle.
"There must be something wrong with this mourning basin!" Xu Xin said, he suppressed his temper and said.
"Okay, let Xu He try it, maybe he can do it, don't delay the funeral." An old man sighed.
The grandmother also knows that this matter is not trivial, even if she wants to protect her grandson, she has to endure it.
