Jiang Yingxue observed the surroundings, eating the pastries one by one, seeing that Su Ming was so nervous, she took the initiative to speak: "This peach blossom cake is made by a famous pastry shop here, it is the most popular among women, the style is exquisite and delicious, what do you think?" ”

There were only a few plates of dishes prepared on the table, and the pastries were delivered by the cook in the house, which seemed fake.

kept guessing Su Pei's whereabouts, Su Ming didn't hear it clearly, so she could only nod her head and pretend to be shy.

When there was a faint night outside, Su Pei was late, pushed open the door with cool air, and saw that the two had not moved their chopsticks, and said urgently: "I got lost, and I only found the house now." ”

Su Pei said the reason he had thought of before, clenched the medicine bag in his hand, and looked nervously.

Seeing that he clenched his fists, the green tendons on his arms burst out, and the other one was obviously more relaxed, Jiang Yingxue didn't break it, and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's not too late, come over and eat." ”

Su Pei hummed, walked over and sat down quickly, and took the opportunity to put his hand on the stand of the table.

"Didn't you say thank you to Mrs. Liu? It's such a rude thing to come back so late. At this time, Su Ming reproached like a sister, and the worry in her eyes gradually subsided.

Su Pei's eyes lit up, he found the opportunity, picked up the teapot, poured a full cup for himself, raised it above his head and said, "Since I'm late, let's punish myself with three cups first." ”

Before she could stop it, Su Pei swallowed as if she was thirsty.

Jiang Yingxue waved her hand and applauded, her eyes were deep, but Su Ming on the side kept reminding him to drink slowly, don't choke.

"Okay, we'll wait a little soon, so let's eat first." Jiang Yingxue put the teapot on the table and moved the chopsticks first with a smile.

Seeing that she was not to blame, Su Pei then nodded, her movements were a little flustered, and her eyes glanced at Jiang Yingxue from time to time.

The lights on the candles flickered, and from time to time there was a "puff" sound, making the dining table extraordinarily quiet.

"Thank you Mrs. Liu for giving my brother such a good errand, the two of us haven't done anything practical for Madame, but we have always bothered you." No one spoke, Su Ming picked up the teacup, replaced the wine with tea, and drank it after thanking him.

Jiang Yingxue first poured a full cup, put it on the left side of her hand, dropped another cup and then saluted, you come and go, this teapot can't pour water.

Su Pei immediately stood up, took the teapot, and said loudly: "Let the little one make tea, you eat first." ”

After speaking, Su Pei hid the medicine bag in his hand and walked away quickly.

At this time, Su Ming also noticed that something was wrong, her eyes were slightly sunken, and a terrible thought poured into her mind, and she dropped the chopsticks from her hand at once.

"Are you alright?" Jiang Yingxue raised her head, looked at her in panic and asked.

"It's okay, I was too careless."

Su Ming understood now, picked up the chopsticks again, and looked at Jiang Yingxue, who was concentrating on eating with her head down, and felt very guilty in her heart, so she wanted to stop it even more.

After a while, Su Pei walked in with a teapot in both hands, with a smile on his face, and first filled Jiang Yingxue with a cup and said, "Madame drink first, the small one is not very good at making tea, if the taste is not good, the small one will make another pot." ”

As he spoke, his face was full of anticipation, and his eyes were fixed on Jiang Yingxue.

"Ahh

The soreness in his legs hit him, causing the arm holding the teapot to move slightly, and the tea dripped onto the table.

Su Ming realized that she was trying too hard, looked at him apologetically, and muttered in a low voice, "I don't care, are you okay?" ”

Jiang Yingxue also looked over with concern, put down the teacup easily, and changed the teacup prepared in advance in pairs while the two were not paying attention.

Listening to the conversation between the two, he drank the tea with a smile and put it on the table.

Su Ming looked at the empty cup on the table with a stiff expression, drank herself in a depressed mood, and said slightly apologetically: "I grew up in the troupe since I was a child, and I have a good voice, but unfortunately I was sold to the Su family as a maid when I was nine years old. ”

Her tone was sad, her eyes were slightly red, and there was even a hint of crying.

Jiang Yingxue yawned, propped her head and looked at them, slowly closed her eyes, and finally lay directly on the table.

"Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu." Seeing this, Su Pei called cautiously, pushed her but didn't react, and couldn't help but smile.

Su Ming stood up, looked at Jiang Yingxue, who was stunned, and said angrily: "Shi Pei, you are too reckless, or we will have a better way soon." ”

She held her forehead, looking very headache, tears flowed down her cheeks, which was pitiful.

"Su Ming, don't cry, I can't help it, if you don't complete the task quickly, you may have to be sold, I can't watch it anymore." Shi Pei's eyes were painful, and he helplessly defended, and reached out to take her into his arms.

Shi Pei?

Jiang Yingxue closed her eyes and didn't dare to move, listening carefully to their conversation, she was very curious about the identity of the Su family's sister and brother.

"But that's not supposed to be, I don't want to do such a thing." Su Ming hugged her head in pain, burst into tears, and whimpered quietly, not daring to shed her pain again.

"Your deed of sale is in their hands, as long as we do this, the Mo clan will hand it over to you, and you will be free." Shi Pei patiently comforted her and put her hand on her back.

"It's me who is sorry for you, otherwise you wouldn't have stayed in the Su family, and you wouldn't have lived such a difficult life."

Shi Pei closed his eyes, shook his head with a smile, let go of Su Ming, and said gently: "I will take Jiang Yingxue away, there is a carriage waiting outside, you follow." ”

Jiang Yingxue listened patiently to their conversation, it turned out to be a hard-working mandarin duck, maybe this matter doesn't have to be so troublesome.

Jiang Yingxue, who was facing the desktop, couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.

Then, Jiang Yingxue felt that she was covered with a quilt, was picked up high, and moved quickly.

After a while, Jiang Yingxue landed on the ground, was put in the carriage, opened her eyes and looked around, she was the only one.

She cautiously stood up, lifted the curtain in a corner, and saw that Shi Pei was waiting anxiously, pacing.

When Jiang Yingxue slowly lowered the curtains and was about to escape, a person suddenly got into the carriage and whispered, "Don't be afraid, madam, we are around." ”

Jiang Yingxue was startled by this sudden voice, and hurriedly patted her chest, seeing that it was the driver in the house, she asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?" ”

"Coachman, you watch here first, and I'll come when I go." Shi Pei seemed to be in a hurry, so he instructed and quickly ran towards the house.

The coachman hummed lightly and said cautiously: "According to Madame's instructions, I have been waiting nearby, but seeing that the carriage has been staying and not understanding, and the coachman is also sneaky, I first arrested it and replaced it with me to protect Madame's safety." ”
