Chapter 216: Heart-to-Heart Talk
Jinghu and Xie Chiying wiped the dominoes all night. The card pair was replaced by Su Ying next to Bao Lan and Xie Chiying, and they were completely evenly matched.
It wasn't until the sky was about to turn white, and I was afraid that Mama Liu would come over for a surprise inspection, so they took the card table and lay on the bed with their heads together.
Fang was so excited, and there were more people around him, so it was naturally impossible to fall asleep soon. Jinghu closed her eyes a few times, but she didn't feel sleepy, and turned her face sideways to see that Xie Chiying's eyes were still open.
So he asked her, "What are you thinking?" ”
"I'm thinking, it's just the last game, if I play eight cylinders first instead of 30,000 first, I will win in the end."
"It's rare to meet someone who is more obsessed than me." Jinghu snorted with a smile, "Anyway, no matter what you think, it's me in the end." You can think clearly before the next card, so as not to lie in bed and regret not being able to sleep. ”
Xie Chiying also smiled lightly, "Next time, I will kill you without leaving a piece of armor." He said, "What is the little county lord thinking?" ”
"I won't tell you." Can she still tell her that she is wondering if Ke Ming can tell if she can tell it?
She gets up every day, and it's not a chicken raised on the stove, saying that the plan of the day lies in the morning, anyway, if she gets up early every day, she must be stupid and bean green no different.
"If you don't tell me, I know, it's already early at this time, and the little county lord must be thinking about what I said yesterday and thinking about my cousin."
Jinghu turned his whole body sideways, "Wrong, I'm wondering, are you my rival." If so, I'll throw you into the river while there's no one there. ”
Xie Chiying also turned sideways to look at Jinghu, "Does the little county lord hope that I am and can have the opportunity to appreciate the splash that he threw me into the river, or do you hope that I am not, and we can be good friends in the future and often wipe dominoes together?" ”
It's all in plain sight. The two little ladies looked at each other and smiled.
Jinghu lay down again and listened to Xie Chiying.
"Actually, the little county lord targeted me a few days ago, and I thought it was because I bumped into your drunken appearance. After all, she is a young lady, she always wants to save face, and it is good to be seen by her cousin, after all, she is about the same age as me, and she is not familiar with each other. ”
"It turns out that it's really because you are interested in my cousin. It seems that my mother and I moved to this ship, and the little county lord is also a drunkard, and he does not mean to drink. ”
Jinghu ran his fingers around his hair, "That's not all, even if you meet in Pingshui and see you sick like that, you have to help." What's more, you did help me when I was in Xiheyuan. ”
"So no matter what the little county lord thinks, I'm always grateful. Actually, I asked for a boat myself, and I heard that stargazing on a boat is more beautiful than on land. Who knew my body was so useless that it almost folded in. ”
Jinghu laughed, "You helped me, and I was also hostile to you, but now that it's gone, let's settle it." It's the first time I've met a little lady who likes to wipe dominoes as much as I do. ”
"Then when you come to our house as a guest, you really want to meet my sixth sister, she is more obsessed than me, and most of the silver she usually saves is thrown into the semicolon of the gaming pavilion in Jinling."
"After all, Huai'an is a little way away from Jinling, and I have to ask someone to buy dominoes, and I can't be discovered by my family, so it's thrilling every time."
"Really?" Jinghu was excited to meet his bosom friend again, "I also like the things in the gaming court, and I bought a lot, so I don't dare to let my family know." ”
Xie Chiying just looked at her and smiled, "The little county lord can go and compare with my sixth sister to collect." ”
Jinghu thought for a while, and then said: "I think Mrs. Xie Si looks quite open-minded and kind, but she is very demanding of you and your sister, and she won't let you play, right?" ”
Xie Chiying sighed, "My mother is the daughter of the Tan family, and she has been inferior to her sister since she was a child, and my aunt is powerful. At that time, my father gave up my aunt and asked to marry her. ”
Jing Hu heard this story told by Ke Ming, but he didn't know that Mrs. Xie Si was born as a concubine.
No wonder she always felt that something was faintly wrong when she listened to the story at that time, if they were all concubines, it shouldn't be too difficult to marry the younger one.
"Although she and my father are Qin Se and Ming, the Xie family is too big after all, and it is very difficult for her to get along with her concubine in terms of seniority. What I'm most afraid of is that my sister and I don't make it, and we don't have brothers, and we will be poked in the backbone in the future, so we are so strict with us. ”
"My sister is okay, she has been sensible and obedient since she was a child, but she has not been rebellious in private, and now she is married to a good husband. Although I also know my mother's difficulties, it is natural to be cute and playful, how can I suppress it. ”
So I had to deceive her like this, just trying not to catch the little tail. I also feel that I really have a bit of a fate with the county lord, so I am like this. ”
Jinghu suddenly felt a little ridiculous, "I'm the opposite of you." You have a good reputation, the talented daughter of the Xie family, but in private, you are just a fun-loving little girl. ”
"But my reputation in Yanjing City is really a mess. When I was a child, I said that I was arrogant and domineering, and a while ago I made trouble about the prince of Nanyihou. But I'm so bad, but I'm just fun-loving. ”
She never felt worse than anyone else. She can treat the people around her leniently, treat her family and friends sincerely, and do nothing, and she has such a reputation for some reason, she is the most wronged.
Xie Chiying grabbed her hand, "Don't think about this, anyway, the us in those mouths are not the real us." They speak ill of you only because they envy your origins and circumstances. ”
"If I hadn't understood how hard my mother was, and I was afraid that she would be accused of not teaching my daughter, I wouldn't have to pretend like this and work so hard to learn what I don't like."
She didn't know how to comfort Jinghu, and Jinghu didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to say: "Actually, I don't mind that much, the people I care about know me." ”
"And a good writer like you, who can paint and recite poems, is indeed a rare talented woman. It never hurts to learn more, I don't know how much I envy you. ”
"If I can sit quietly behind the desk for an hour, my mother will burn incense to my ancestors."
Xie Chiying smiled and closed her eyes, "It won't take long to sleep, my cousin must have gotten up at this time, so the little county lord should rest for a while." ”
Jinghu suddenly remembered, "You haven't told me yet, how do you know that I like Brother Ke Shi." ”
Xie Chiying didn't answer her, and looked like she was already asleep.
