Chapter 17: Love
As soon as Jinghu entered the mansion, he cheered up. At this time, it was dinner time, and she was going to eat with her mother.
If the concubine saw her sad face, she thought that she had suffered some grievances in the Dingguo Mansion, and maybe something would happen again.
When the time comes, the mother concubine and the princess of the county will fight in the ring, and she will only suffer.
Besides, she also wants to have more time to accompany Qingrou, she is so pitiful. Father, grandmother, all thought about her fifth sister, and no one thought about her feelings.
They are good friends, if even she can't comfort her and accompany her, then what kind of friends are they like.
Jinghu thought about it while walking towards the Qixue Pavilion where her mother lived, and only then did she enter the courtyard gate, and saw that her sister-in-law was also in the main hall of her mother today, and she had already served food, and it seemed that they were going to eat together.
Jinghu was not so uncomfortable that she didn't even want to eat with her sister-in-law, so she walked in generously and greeted her mother and sister-in-law.
Concubine Xu said with a smile: "I came back early today, and I thought you would come back after dinner." Come, sit beside the concubine. β
And said: "Why did you even change your clothes when you went out?" This dress doesn't seem to be yours? β
Jinghu sat down beside her mother concubine in a kind manner, "I went to see Sister Qing today, she is a little uncomfortable today, and I don't want to bother me much." β
"As for changing clothes, it was because I accidentally got the tea on my body, so I took Sister Qing's clothes and wore them. She's a few months younger than me and she's small, so she doesn't fit well. β
Her mother didn't speak yet, but Ke Mingbi said first: "Sister Qing is not feeling well? What's wrong? β
"It's also strange to say, since my aunt was sick last year, she hasn't gotten better yet, and she is a thoughtful person, always bitter and hateful at a young age."
Ke Mingbi is also Qingrou's cousin. Listening to her talk like this, it seems that she really doesn't know about Qingrou's mother.
Today, she and Qingrou guessed for a long time in the Spring Ridge Building, except that it must be related to her fifth sister Huaiyi Xiangjun, but she couldn't guess what happened at all.
Who's right and who's wrong. And this matter, does Ke Mingxu know about it?
It's all a mystery.
Ke Mingbi saw that Jinghu had been staring at her, and her heart was inexplicable, "Third sister, what's wrong?" But what's wrong with what my sister-in-law said? β
Jing Hu realized that something was wrong with her, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, Sister Qing just came back from the Duchess of Guo, so she feels a little tired, and it's not a major symptom." β
"I went to see my sister today, and I also asked about the illness of the Duchess of Guo, but she couldn't tell what it was, so I felt a little strange."
"I thought my sister-in-law was close to her mother and could know something inside."
Ke Mingbi sighed, "I don't even know Sister Qing'er's own daughter, let alone me." During this time, my mother has not been good, and my aunt and my mother have always had a deep relationship with each other, perhaps they are also worried about each other. β
"I'm afraid even my brother doesn't know about this. Every time he came to see me and talked about his mother's illness, his face was always a little bad. β
The last time she met Ke Mingxu in Ke Ming's courtyard, his expression did seem to be a little unhappy.
Ke Mingbi also remembered the events of that day, and said to her mother-in-law Xu Fangfei with a smile: "Before the Dragon Boat Festival, my brother came to see me, but he also met the third sister. β
"My brother has known her for a long time, but I don't want the third sister to recognize my brother too. I heard that they were still talking in the garden for a while, but I didn't expect my brother to treat me me, and he had a fate with the third sister. β
She and Ke Mingxu were talking in the garden that day, and they didn't avoid people, presumably the mother knew about it. Ke Mingbi specifically mentioned it again, what does it mean?
Concubine Xu knew about this, but she never asked, and when she remembered it, she asked, "Hu'er, what did you and Xulang of the Ke family say in the garden that day?" β
"I heard you gave him a pot of coral flowers? Isn't that what you usually love? β
Jinghu said: "I just talked a few words to Brother Ke Shi, I asked him to recognize the coral flower, but I didn't expect him to recognize it." Soulmates are hard to find, so I was happy for a while, so I gave him a pot. β
It's nothing, right? Ke Mingbi still felt that this behavior was inappropriate, so she coaxed her to say it herself, so as to remove Ke Mingxu from this matter.
No matter how rude she is, she did it alone, and it has nothing to do with their Ke family?
Not necessarily. On the contrary, this action is too deliberate. Even Jinghu could think of this, how could her mother not think of it.
Jinghu looked up at her mother, who was looking at Ke Mingbi with a smile. It's just that this smile is a little lighter.
It seems that the mother concubine doesn't like Ke Mingbi as much as she thinks.
Jinghu sighed in his heart again, isn't it good to be frank and unrestrained? There is nothing wrong with Ke Ming in this matter, if the mother concubine asks, she will definitely clear him up, there is really no need for this.
However, what she said just now made Jinghu a little interested, and she made a little naΓ―ve demeanor.
"My sister-in-law just said that Brother Ke Shi already knew me, but I don't know how he knew me? I wasn't even impressed. β
Ke Mingbi was stunned for a moment before he said: "A few months ago, when it was still spring, my brother once came to see me and saw the third sister running and fluttering butterflies under the corridor from a distance. β
"I thought that everyone was a family, so I pointed to the figure of the third sister and told my brother that this is the county lord of Jingling, the palm pearl of our county prince."
My brother took one look, smiled, and said that he already knew the county lord. If you want to say exactly when, you have to ask my brother the next time he comes. β
She knew that Ke Mingxu knew her earlier than she knew her, but she still didn't have a chance to ask him when he met her. Every time she saw him, she forgot everything.
If he could notice her on a very formal occasion, then he was so good and unforgettable, she should not be completely impressed by him.
Jinghu suddenly remembered what Liu Huang said to her when she was in the carriage, "Many men and women in this world fall in love with each other at first sight, starting from admiring each other's faces. β
The first time she saw Ke Mingxu was on the tower of Zhengyangmen.
If he just saw him, and even if he caught the flowers falling from other women, and he was also laughing at other women, she probably wouldn't fall into it all at once.
Is this love at first sight?
So what is the reason why Ke Mingxu can remember her? Where did he first meet her?
The next time we meet, she will definitely ask clearly.
