Chapter 494: People's hearts are complicated
Ruan Chuxiao's face was even darker.
If Fang Cai was still a little unsure if he was dizzy for a moment when he mistook An Ruyi for Fang Hanniang, and now seeing An Ruyi forcing him to die like this, he was really sure that there must be An Ruyi's hands and feet here.
It's just that what did she do to make him recognize the wrong person?
Ruan Chuxiao's heart was turbulent, but her face sank like water, and she didn't speak.
Fang Hanniang saw the disappointment on the face of the old lady of Pingguo, and knew that her grandmother was chilled by An Ruyi's disagreement with her behavior of forcing her to die.
She stepped forward and grabbed the arm of the old lady of Pingguo, and said in a low voice: "Grandmother, after such an incident now, it is a good thing to know who the other party is. ”
It's better than being deceived by the other party all the time, only to find out that it's not a good one when you marry into the house.
"That's what I said, and that's how I ...... said," the old lady of Pingguo said in a low voice, paused slightly, shook her head with a slightly heavy face, and sighed lightly, "If only people's hearts could be so simple." ”
That's true.
The human heart is probably the most complex thing in the world.
Fang Hanniang was silent.
The doctor treated An Ruyi's head injury, prescribed medicine, and Mrs. Huaishui personally fed An Ruyi, who was unconscious.
No matter how unwilling Mrs. Huaishui was, she didn't dare to joke with An Ruyi's life - what glory and wealth, and her daughter had a life, it was possible to get it; If his daughter's life is gone, he can extort a sum of money from the Pingguo Mansion, but after that, the friendship between the two families is probably completely over.
One-time trading, where can it be compared to the long stream of fine water, endless!
It's just that Mrs. Huai Shuibo doesn't want to think about it, even if she has made a fuss, the two sides can get married, but now it's so ugly, An Ruyi marries in, and the people of the Pingguo Mansion can afford her?
It's just that the wealth and power are moving!
The atmosphere in the room was not good, not to mention that the old lady of Pingguo and the others looked serious, and the maids and ladies who were waiting below didn't even dare to make a sound.
For a while, there was only the occasional crackling sound of silver frost charcoal burning in the charcoal basin in the room, and the silence made people a little out of breath.
An Ruyi lay lifeless on the bed, her eyes closed tightly, and a thick white sand cloth wrapped around her head, probably because she had just lost blood, and her face was even more pale.
Most people's eyes fell on An Ruyi.
An Ruyi was not the only one in the room, Ruan Chuxiao, who had been sitting on the side without speaking, looked a little tired.
Fang Hanniang said softly to the old lady of Pingguo: "Grandmother, it's not a way for so many of us to stay here. Miss An is still in a coma right now, I'll send you back to rest first, and the maid will report if there is news here...... The third cousin's body is also a little unbearable. ”
Ruan Chuxiao couldn't help but glance at Fang Hanniang.
The old lady of Pingguo was shocked, she was chilled by An Ruyi for a while, and she forgot about the third child!
It is also because Ruan Chuxiao hasn't said a few words since he came in, and he sits a little biased, so it's not strange to be ignored.
The old lady of Pingguo was busy looking at this grandson who had always given her a headache and pity, and sure enough, she saw Ruan Chuxiao's pale face showing a little tiredness.
The old lady hurriedly said: "Third child, you are still feverish, so hurry back and rest." ”
Before Ruan Chuxiao could speak, she heard Mrs. Huai Shuibo on the side say quietly: "Old lady, don't think that I and Yi'er are making trouble unreasonably. You pity your grandson, and I pity my son. ”
A hint of anger flashed on the face of the old lady of Pingguo.
Fang Hanniang said coldly: "What does Mrs. Huai Shuibo mean by this?!" If you really pity Miss Ann, you should do what is best for her! Do you really think that it is good for Miss An to force the Ruan Mansion to marry Miss An with a harmless matter? …… If you really pity Miss An, shouldn't you look forward to covering this matter tightly, and you are satisfied with Miss An's household, and the other party also likes your family? Speaking of this, Fang Hanniang pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, and said slowly, "It can be seen that your family is just pulling the banner of a distressed girl to make a profit." ”
Mrs. Huai Shuibo was a little unbearable by Fang Hanniang's sad expression on her face.
She glared at Fang Hanniang fiercely, and said hatefully: "Miss Fang is so sharp-toothed, you have a good family affair, so naturally you don't have a backache when you stand and talk." If this kind of thing happens to you now, and it reaches the ears of His Royal Highness King Jin, you see if His Royal Highness will marry you! ”
"Whether this king marries or not, he doesn't bother Mrs. Huai Shuibo."
A cold voice came from the curtain of the door, and everyone was taken aback.
Fang Hanniang's heart was sour, and she looked up at the door curtain, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be suppressed.
The door curtain was opened, and Ji Jinxing, who looked like a heavenly man and had a cold expression, came in with Ping Guogong.
Seeing the visitor, Mrs. Huai Shuibo's cold sweat was about to flow down.
Probably because he was afraid that the patient lying inside was a boudoir girl, Ji Jinxing, as a foreign man, did not enter the inner room, but still stood in the warm pavilion next to the bedroom, and gave the old lady of Pingguo a junior salute: "Old lady, please give you a greeting." ”
It stands to reason that the old lady of Pingguo should salute His Royal Highness King Jin, but Ji Jinxing preemptively saluted like this, making it clear that he was talking about today's family ceremony, not the national ceremony.
In other words, Ji Jinxing came here today, not as the eleventh prince of the Darong Dynasty, but as the nephew and son-in-law of the old lady of Pingguo.
The old lady of Pingguo was very comfortable in her heart because of Ji Jinxing's action, and she was a little chilled by Mrs. Huaishui and An Ruyi.
However, in the end, there is still an outsider, Mrs. Huai Shuibo, who is here, and the old lady of Pingguo still got up and gave in slightly: "Your Royal Highness is polite." ”
Because of her high seniority, the old lady of Pingguo is the grandmother of Ji Jinxing's future wife, so she can naturally be like this, just get up to greet her.
Mrs. Huaishui is just a lady of the Bofu, but she can't be like this, if she dares to stand like this rashly, thinking that tomorrow morning, the fold of impeachment of her will fly to the emperor's desk.
Mrs. Huai Shuibo was a little reluctant to make a standard salute: "I've seen the prince." ”
The sight above her head was like a real entity, which made Mrs. Huai Shuibo feel a little cold.
Obviously, the charcoal basin in the house was burning very strongly, but she felt that her hands and feet were becoming cold to the bone......
However, Mrs. Huai Shuibo waited for a long time, and she didn't wait for Ji Jinxing to speak and let her get up.
Mrs. Huai Shuibo struggled to maintain a saluting posture, her hands and feet were a little stiff, and fine and dense cold sweat oozed from her forehead.
She didn't even dare to move.
There was silence in the room.
Even, so quiet that Mrs. Huaishui could hear her fluttering heartbeat.
After a long time, Ji Jinxing's voice sounded coldly: "I hope Mrs. Bo will remember that Miss Fang is about to marry into this king's palace, and she is a member of the royal family." If you let the king hear it next time, please ask Huaishui Boshang to defend himself with his father! ”
The excerpt defends itself, which means that you have to refer to Huai Shuibo!
This frightened Mrs. Huai Shuibo's already stiff body, and she almost fainted because she couldn't hold it anymore.
Huai Shuibo is currently in an insignificant position, and he can't be compared with Ji Jinxing, a prince who is simply in the emperor's heart.
If he is really on the stage, the position of his own master ......
Her face was pale, and she knelt down for Ji Jinxing with a plop, kowtowing tremblingly, and her tongue was almost knotted: "Courtier, courtier, courtier......s guilty"
But he didn't dare to say anything about it anymore.
The group finally came out of the house where An Ruyi was recuperating.
Ji Jinxing didn't have the shelf of the prince, so he wanted to personally support the old lady of Pingguo.
Qiu Er's grandmother watched from the sidelines, and she was almost frightened.
The coldness of His Royal Highness is known to the entire capital. Although I still don't like to talk very much at the moment, but when I see it today, I am so gentle and polite?
Grandma Qiu Er felt that she was probably dazzled.
The old lady of Pingguo was happy, she was high-level, although she was also taken aback when Ji Jinxing wanted to help her just now, but she was still able to hold it down, and thanked her politely.
However, the mood of the old lady of Pingguo was much better because of this.
Ji Jinxing walked behind the old lady of Pingguo with Pingguo Gong.
Ping Guogong was a little embarrassed and said: "Let His Highness see the excitement at home." ”
Ji Jinxing doesn't like to talk much, and he rarely deals with others, Ping Guogong said this, he just replied concisely: "Family, it's okay." ”
Ping Guogong smiled.
The old lady of Pingguo happily glanced at Fang Hanniang, who was supporting her, and that glance was very meaningful.
Fang Hanniang's face turned red all of a sudden.
She muttered unnaturally, "What does my grandmother see me doing?" ”
The old lady of Pingguo smiled: "Look at my heart and soul baby, it's really good to be so close!" ”
Fang Hanniang's face turned even redder, and the sight of the person behind her was about to burn.
The corners of Ji Jinxing's mouth curled slightly.
Walking to the gate of the courtyard, Ruan Chuxiao said goodbye without any expression. The old lady of Pingguo was busy and distressed: "You child, go back and rest." You can rest assured about this matter at home, your own family affairs always ask you to nod. ”
As he spoke, he glanced back at Ping Guogong meaningfully.
Ping Guogong was a little inexplicable by his mother's glance.
Although he wants to let this old man who has not married a lot of people get married as soon as possible, he will not be a bad father and force his son to get married, right?
Ruan Chuxiao smiled faintly, hugged her fists, and went back.
It's just that Fang Hanniang didn't know if it was her own delusion, and felt that her third cousin, who had always been mighty, looked a little gloomy when she turned away.
It must be that the third cousin is still sick, and there is such a bad thing as An Ruyi.
Fang Hanniang thought with some sympathy.
