149. Half a cup of tea
It came out of it. Straight to her feet. Jumping around her.
This is the dog raised by Mrs. He, and Qiao Siwan heard others call it Ling Armor.
Ruby crouched down. Pick it up. "Miss, this puppy is so cute." Then he gently nodded his little nose, "Did you say?" ”
Qiao Siwan looked at it with a slight smile.
Ling Feng rubbed Ruby's clothes with his mouth, but suddenly, it stopped this affectionate action, and its white hair and small ears stood up, and it screamed "woo-" behind Ruby.
Before Hongyu could react, Qiao Siwan had already followed the dog's cry, only to see a short and ugly old woman standing in the corridor not far behind her, her face buried in the shadows of the village wood. I only saw the white head and the pair of white eyes on the face. Now he was staring straight at Qiao Siwan.
At that moment, Qiao Siwan was taken aback. She almost wondered if what she had glimpsed was a man or a ghost.
Ruby glanced back in confusion. I was taken aback. She clenched the bell armor in one hand. The other hand covers his mouth. I was trembling, but I couldn't move.
Fortunately, at this time, a maidservant girl came to the gate of the courtyard, and a short and fat woman. Suddenly, he turned around and disappeared between the trees.
"Miss Qiao, how are you?" It was the girl ring pothos holding the dog next to the old lady of the He family, and she saw Qiao Siwan and Hongyu looking at the village in a daze. You can't ask yourself.
"Miss. You, did you catch a glimpse of her? Ruby gestured to where the old woman stood. Half-talent speaks.
Qiao Siwan nodded, and only then did she realize that her palms were slightly cold: "Pothos." Is there a stocky woman in your house, who was horribly born and had a scar on her forehead? ”
"No," said the pothos, with a fresh expression.
"There's something new you don't know?" Qiao Siwan raised her eyes slightly, staring at the direction where the old woman had disappeared.
Lu Pothos shook her head and said in annoyance: "There are some rough servants in our apartment, who are in charge of cooking and laundry in the kitchen. But they were all born clean. There was nothing on the face. How can we use our mother with a scar on her face? Isn't that frightening? ”
This is what Qiao Siwan thinks is fresh, no matter what kind of person she is, when she screens the maids and servants, she will find a neat and clean one, how can she find a place that looks so scary? Even if she is a rough servant. I won't just run to the backyard where the ladies and ladies are. Look at the appearance of the pothos, and it doesn't look like it's a slight lie. Qiao Siwan smiled slightly. Said: "Ruby." Give Lingfeng back to the pothos. ”
Pothos took over Ling Feng. He thanked him happily and turned to leave.
Hongyu looked at Qiao Siwan and said, "Miss." We all see women with our own eyes. Can we still be dizzy together? ”
"It's not dizzy." Qiao Siwan smiled, but it was almost nothing. "You can too. The He family has a lot of secrets. ”
In the courtyard of Bixi, the winter sun faintly penetrates through the white cotton window paper, and the thin layer is like a layer of slippery glass yarn. Soft and lightweight. There is a white porcelain statue of Guanyin on the table. Generous and plump, the face is charitable. When you look at it, you will feel kind and generous. There is a great state of charity for all sentient beings. The concubine collapsed. Lin Yuanxin sat reclining and embroidered a belly pocket worn by a baby. Red pomegranate red red apricot yellow background. Embroider the pattern of 100 sons and 100 blessings. Every stitch is full of the joy of being a first-time mother and the affection for the child in the womb. Qiao Siwan sat aside and read a book. Ruby is sorting things out. The house is laid back and peaceful.
That's when it happened. Ruby suddenly noticed that a wide slit had opened in the drawer where the gold ornaments were kept. She opened the drawer and saw that the gold ornaments were still there. The veil wrapped in the gold ornaments was gone, and he pondered for a while. She turned around and asked, "Miss." Have you ever asked someone else to take the gold for you? ”
Qiao Siwan raised her head, with a slight surprise in her eyes: "No." ”
"Fresh. The drawer looks like someone has touched it. ”
The corners of Lin Yuanxin's mouth pursed a happy and reassuring smile, and said casually: "Ruby." Did you open the drawer yourself and don't remember? ”
Hongyu's heart is fresh, every time she puts away the gold jewelry, she always closes the drawer well. What's going on? She shook her head suspiciously. Could it be that he was too tired today to be negligent?
Qiao Siwan knew the calm nature of Hongyu, so it was fresh to hear these words. Then he asked, "Is there something missing?" ”
Hongyu shook her head: "No." "The handkerchief doesn't belong to the young lady, it's just that I'm just embroidering and playing with nothing.
It's normal if it's missing. There are a lot of them, is this someone secretly peeping, or is they suspicious? The book in Qiao Siwan's hand turned a page for a long time, and Lin Yuanxin smiled: "You guys." It's just that she thinks too much, it must be that Hongyu herself didn't put it away, but she forgot about it. ”
Lin Yuanxin always made it easy to solve problems. It's easy to be deceived. But it can also be a little frustrated. When Qiao Siwan heard this, she smiled: "Well, I think so too." ”
What else did Hongyu say, but Qiao Siwan glanced at her, indicating that she would not say any more.
It was dark and the small building of Hefu
Mao entered the small building alone and waved away the old and ugly woman who was guarding outside the small building. She stepped through the door, and a silver lamp burned inside. The candlelight was gentle and warm, illuminating the whole room. The room is gorgeously decorated, luxurious everywhere, like a lady's embroidery room.
She glanced around and groped, "Jiating? Jia Ting? No one answered. Mao sighed and closed the doorknob. Sit down at the table and wait quietly.
After a short wait, the door slammed open. The house became dark, and the candlelight was blown out by the wind. Mao's has seen this situation many times, and she stood up. called: "Jia Ting? ”
A figure of Miao Ge flashed in. She raised something in her hand. Just throw it on the table. Mao lit the candle torch from the new, and on the table was obviously a handkerchief embroidered with a peony picture. Mao was just about to pick it up and look at it. Her hand was crushed by the other.
"Slow", very hoarse and cold voice. It's hard to believe that it and the slender hand belong to the same person.
Mao raised his eyes. Raise your eyes and answer.
"I want her to be my stand-in. Right away. The sooner the better, you go and help me do it right away. The voice changed from hoarse to high-pitched, echoing through the house.
A trace of embarrassment almost imperceptibly swept over Mao's face: "Jia Ting." She's the old lady's savior, it's really one."
"I don't care, you used to say you couldn't find the right person. Now that you have a candidate, you are pushing! Pointing to the handkerchief, he said, not allowed to bargain.
Mao paused and said, "Don't worry, let my mother think of a way." ”
After lunch the next day, Qiao Siwan accompanied Lin Yuanxin to walk around the yard. After a while. A maid hurriedly ran over and said to Qiao Siwan: "Miss Qiao, the slave is the hosta next to the doctor. We doctors would like to ask you to help us with the pattern. Do you think there is a passing moment now? ”
Lin Yuanxin frowned. took Qiao Siwan's hand and said, "Wan'er, you ......"
Qiao Siwan patted her hand and said softly, "It's okay, I'll go and see and return." ”
Qiao Siwan followed the hosta. Along the way, the servants and maids came and went, very enthusiastically, and after they arrived at the place, there was no sound inside, and only a few maids in Tsing Yi stood under the porch.
Qiao Siwan thought it was different. So he asked the hosta to go in and convey it. The hosta opened the curtain and went in, and soon came out and said, "The old lady has a guest over there, and the doctor is pulled over." ”
Qiao Siwan said: "Since the doctor is not here, then I will go back first." ”
Yuguan hurriedly smiled: "No, no, when the doctor left, he said that he would go and come back, please go in first and wait for a while." The tea is all ready. ”
Qiao Siwan glanced at the courtyard contemplatively. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a doctor's main hospital. It's like a flower hall for hospitality. The more she thought about it, the fresher it became, and the hosta had already come up. "It's so cold outside. Miss, don't freeze to death. Get on in. Without saying anything, he pulled Qiao Siwan into the flower hall and went out again.
Qiao Siwan saw that there were no outsiders in the flower hall, and she was too suspicious. The truth came to the house. Some part-time jobs are not too good and too pretentious. What's more, Ruby is also on the side. Nothing can be done horizontally. also patiently waited for Mao's.
After half a cup of tea, I heard a maid ring outside the curtain and said, "Please wait for Fang Gongzi to go in." Then a maid ring opened the curtain. A man dressed in a fancy costume walked in.
Qiao Siwan and Hongyu were both taken aback, Hongyu hurriedly blocked Qiao Siwan, staring at the man in front of her with careful eyes, but for some reason, her body suddenly stiffened, and Qiao Siwan noticed a difference. The lowered head lifted up and looked at the man standing in front of him. The sunlight poured down from outside, casting a quiet shadow along the outline of his body, and her eyes could not adapt to such a strong light for a while, and she was slightly half-closed to see the face of the person in front of her.
The male dove of the Jiang family has been inherited from several generations of excellent genes. Undoubtedly, they are all tall and handsome. And the man in front of him. If you understand it, it can be called the best of the best. The unruly but slightly frowning eyebrows, a pair of slender and long phoenix eyes, the dark pupils are unfathomable, even the nose is tall and the contour is clear, and the lip shape is even more perfect. He was dressed in a dark blue cloud brocade makeup gauze quadruple collar narrow sleeve casual suit, sleeves. Clasped with two knuckle-sized, deep blue gemstones. He looks personable and has an outstanding temperament.
At that moment, Qiao Siwan really wanted to ask a question, and pay for it along the way
His Royal Highness the King of Mingjun, shouldn't you give instructions to thousands of troops on the battlefield? How did you get here for a reason? If she heard it correctly, the right girl called him Fang Gongzi?!
Qiao Siwan's eyebrows unconsciously showed a faint smile. Her beautiful eyes are half-closed, and her thick and slender eyelashes cleverly hide the slight waves under her eyes. She spoke in a panic, playing a weak and timid woman very well: "Who is so bold! ”
Jiang Chi narrowed his eyes slightly. The light that shone deep in his eyes made it difficult to fathom his thoughts. He gestured with his left hand, and then smiled at Qiao Siwan, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb you!" "The voice is like jade, warm and fragrant, warm and moist, please more. casually retreated quickly, and whispered to the maidservant inside: "There is a young lady in the hall, why don't you say anything?!" ”
Qiao Siwan was in the house, and Ning Si heard the maid ring inside repeatedly, and after a while, Jiang Chi went away. After a few moments, Twilight entered with red eyes. Choked up: "Miss Qiao." It's small outside, and I don't know it. Sure enough, if outsiders were let in, it was also a slave who was not diligent in thinking. Punish your slaves!
