Chapter 17: A Woman's Joke

Sima Cheng was stunned for a moment, his hands stiffened slightly, and he retracted them from both sides of the dining table and hugged them around his chest.

Could it be that I was thinking wrong? Sima Cheng was skeptical of the words of the person in front of him, but this idea was actually a bit ridiculous to think about, and he actually regarded a girl as the little boy of that day, although the voice felt familiar, but he couldn't tell anything, maybe he had already decided in his heart, so he would feel that the voice was similar.

After being silent for a long time, Sima Cheng lowered his eyes and chuckled, as if laughing at himself.

In fact, he didn't want to blame the little boy of that day, he later felt that he had gone too far that day, and if they could still meet, they would make it clear.

Yi Xue naturally didn't see Sima Cheng's expression, but his light laughter sounded like a mockery of her lame rhetoric, Yi Xue's heart was weak, and her palms began to sweat, if you want to please Sima Cheng's suspicions, you must want to make up something convincing, but because of fear, Qi Xue's eyes were red, and her mind was blank.

"This king is wrong to blame you, get up, come and pour wine." Sima Cheng said.

Hearing this, Yi Xue slowly raised her head.

Sima Cheng saw her sad and submissive, thinking that he might have scared this little girl, after all, he was known for his unkindness in the army before.

After that, until the end of the luncheon, Sima Cheng never said a word to Yi Xue.

The nobles of the family gradually left the table, and Yi Xue finally let go of her hanging heart.

The ups and downs that have just been experienced, and the snow still has palpitations.

Although he knew the good news that Sima Cheng in front of him was the son of King Jing, thinking back to his arrogant appearance in the jewelry shop before, and his appearance with those noble sons and daughters of those families today, Yi Xue felt that during lunch, Sima Cheng may have just let her go with kindness for a while, which does not mean that he will not doubt her again in the future.

Speaking of King Jing, let's not talk about whether Prince Jing is the same as seven years ago, even if Prince Jing still has their sister and brother in his heart, but whether Sima Cheng is of the same mind as King Jing, and how he believes in himself, there are still too many variables in this, and Yi Xue feels that he can't put all the bets on Sima Cheng.

In the end, Yi Xue still felt that she couldn't stay at the Lotus Picking Festival for a long time, and she had to hurry up and write a love note and leave as soon as possible.

Due to the hot weather, Yin Baoshan asked her to meet in the pavilion to the west, where there were bamboo curtains between the pillars, and outsiders could not see the scene in the pavilion.

This is the first time she has seen the true face of the eldest lady of the Yin family, who is about the same age as her, with round apricot eyes and a fleshy face, very cute. However, when she thought about it, it was because the person in front of her had made trouble many times, which caused her to be shackled, and Yi Xue was a little angry.

Yin Baoshan's eyes lit up when she saw Yi Xue, and then she couldn't help laughing, looking like she couldn't help laughing.

Yi Xue was puzzled, Yin Baoshan pointed to her face while laughing, and said, "Did Tao Gongzi just play with mud?" Your face looks like you've got a mole," and he laughed as soon as he finished speaking.

Yi Xue remembered the river mud on her face, but how could she suddenly see that it was mud?

That...... Didn't Sima Cheng find out? Is it so stupid? It shouldn't be, after all, even a boudoir woman like Yin Baoshan knows something...... But Yi Xue couldn't think of a reason for it all of a sudden, but when she thought of the corner of Sima Cheng's evil smile, she couldn't help but add another layer of disgust to him.

When I came back after washing my face, I had already prepared a pen and paper and a few plates of snacks in the pavilion.

Yi Xue sat down, and Yin Baoshan opened her mouth first:

"Today, there is Lao Tao Gongzi, let Gongzi serve Cheng Gongzi's lunch without permission, I'm sorry."

After hearing this, Yi Xue suddenly became angry, and before she could speak, Yin Baoshan immediately got up, patted her chest, looked insincere, and said to herself:

"But Tao Gongzi, can you understand me? As soon as I thought that there were other maidservants so close to Cheng Gongzi, I was very jealous, but fortunately there was Gongzi to help. ”

Yin Baoshan excitedly shook Yi Xue's hand, Yi Xue looked at her happy appearance, simple eyes, and angry words suddenly blocked her throat.

Then, Yin Baoshan seemed to suddenly remember something, and quickly let go of Yi Xue's hand, and said apologetically: "Really, Tao Gongzi is really delicate, this outfit even confused me, I thought Tao Gongzi was a woman just now." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to the side of Xue Xue's face.

After Yin Baoshan reminded Yi Xue, she realized that her current identity was Tao Gongzi, and immediately bounced up from her seat and dodged Yin Baoshan's hand.

Yin Baoshan hid her face and smiled, "I didn't expect that Tao Gongzi would be shy, when I just shook my hand, I didn't see you have such a big reaction." ”

Yi Xue's face turned red when she said it, and she had a ghost in her heart.

Yi Xue hurriedly coughed, lowered her voice and said, "The first time I saw such a lovely woman, the grass people inevitably panicked, and I hope Miss Yin will forgive me." ”

Yin Baoshan smiled even brighter when she heard this, and said to Amber, the personal maid next to her:

"Look, it's not in vain to spend a lot of money to find the tailor master in Luojing, Tao Gongzi is stunned, hehe." Amber next to her nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, there is also this beaded hairpin, Miss must be among the ladies today." ”

Yi Xue watched the master and servant sing and harmonize, thinking that these words were set at the luncheon just now, and she had already shown off to the ladies many times.

Thinking about it, Yi Xue noticed Yin Baoshan's clothes, a pink and white pink cigarette shirt, a red scattered flower pleated skirt, and a crimson peach blossom with faint sleeves, which can be regarded as gorgeous and chic.

As soon as the topic of dressing up was mentioned, Yin Baoshan put the snow aside, and couldn't stop her mouth. Yi Xue had no choice but to cough awkwardly again and began to talk about love notes.

"Today, I have met Miss Yin's crush, and I have probably learned a little bit about the conversations between the sons of each family......"

Yi Xue wanted to say, "I understand Sima Cheng's situation", but before she finished speaking, Yin Baoshan hurried close and asked with concern:

"What did they say? Did you mention me? ”

Yin Baoshan's sudden approach made Yi Xue feel uncomfortable, and the heavy smell of fat powder made her breathless, although they were all women, they were inevitably unpleasant.

Yin Baoshan didn't notice it, she looked expectant, but Amber next to her saw Yi Xue's embarrassment, and said to Yin Baoshan:

"Miss, you are so close, Tao Gongzi can't speak."

The tone did not forget to have a joking joke about Yi Xue. Yin Baoshan noticed her gaffe and straightened up.

Yi Xue finally took a breath, thinking about it, although she had heard that other sons and daughters were discussing today's female dependents, but Sima Cheng was silent, glanced at Yin Baoshan, and was afraid that she would be entangled with herself, so she lied and said:

"Yes, when Gongzi Cheng heard other sons discuss the appearance of the women present, some said that he thought that the girl in the red shirt was pleasing to the eye."
