Chapter 31: The Enemy
But neither of them showed up to compete with each other, just because they were self-aware.
Xie Mingdai pursed her lips, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were like the scorching glow of a flame, it was short and short, with a little coldness, she had just learned that Xie Mingyue was hiding behind a tree but pretending to be unintentionally related to the sisters in the clan, she closed her gaze, and was about to leave after pacing.
"yes, there are too many people who can't speak.... By the way, I especially remember that you were still studying back then, and now it's been four years, how is the scientific examination? ”
With this question, Xie Mingdai couldn't help but pause, and her eyebrows were lightly raised.
In her impression, Xie Mingjin is by no means a person who likes to talk about scientific research with non-clan men. "Uh.... I just entered the show last year. Zhao Jinghuan's eyes flashed, and he still replied with a smile.
Compared with Xie Mingdai's sensitivity, Xie Zhilin was more concerned about another thing, this person who was not much older than himself had already entered the show, which was one step faster than all the students here.
Even if he was praised by the division commander for successfully entering the show in this next exam, isn't he still famous?
Especially if the other party is the son of a powerful person, if he asks about fame, it is more and more rare, but why did he answer in a somewhat empty tone.
This kind of talent is enough to laugh at the children of many families.
Soon, Ming Jin's words explained Xie Zhilin's answer.
"Well, haven't you moved in yet?"
It's a suffocating atmosphere.
Xie Zhilin was surprised: This sister-in-law has such a high vision? It's almost heaven to heaven, or are the children of the noble families in the capital so talented, all of them are young?
Zhao Jinghuan's expression froze, and he said stupidly: "Sure enough, with Sister Jin's vision, she can't look down on me as meoccrimity." ”
Ming Jin's eyes were moist, and he smiled faintly: "I'm a woman, and I don't even have the right to participate in the imperial examination, how dare I despise the imperial examination scholars." ”
Zhao Jinghuan narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I know, Sister Jin is..."
He was about to say that she cared about him, but saw Ming Jin lowering his eyebrows and smiling lightly, gurgling like flowing water, "I just don't know how to speak." ”
"And, I really don't like you."
Zhao Jinghuan: "??? ”
It's coming, it's coming, and it smells like my eldest sister's poisonous tongue. Xie Mingyue originally noticed Xie Mingdai's coldness, and also saw that the latter was leaving, but she didn't want the latter to prick up her ears and listen to a few words, so she suddenly returned with a worried step to continue eavesdropping.
Xie Mingyue: "...."
What a person, what a hypocrisy.
Oh, she was talking not only about Xie Mingdai, but also about another sister.
One will be familiar and kind, and the other will turn his face ruthlessly, and the ghost knows that sentence is true.
"Sister Jin, you're like this... But have I sinned against you? Zhao Jinghuan was embarrassed and at a loss, and he seemed to be aggressive and domineering.
"Even if I heard that you came to Wuling for the first beauty, and you picked me Xie girl, I thought you were talking about me."
Ming Jin didn't know whether he was angry or not, and there was a bit of anger on the left and right.
Xie Mingdai and Xie Mingyue were startled and glanced at each other.
Where does this person care about the name of the first beauty.
Zhao Jinghuan's face changed slightly, he already understood what Ming Jin meant, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said embarrassedly: "I know why Sister Jin is angry, it's me talking nonsense... I thought you were being bullied by them in the Xie family. ”
Ming Jin suddenly showed a look of relief, "I see, I misunderstood, I really thought that the little marquis had become a shameless and selfish person who only cares about his own man's reputation and does not tolerate humiliation, but ignores the damage to the reputation of other girls." ”
Zhao Jinghuan: "I... Naturally not. ”
Mingjin: "I know you're not. ”
She turned sideways, raised her hand and stroked the head of Xie Zhizhen, who was quiet on the side but did not make a fuss, and said in a light tone, "With the power foundation of the Guihou Mansion, you are not satisfied with the status quo, and you can study hard, you are a rare talent in the family." ”
Turning her face, she praised Zhao Jinghuan, who had just been "humiliated" by her: "What I said before, saying that you haven't been promoted yet, I just think that you have such qualifications, you shouldn't have been lifted, I'm afraid it's just bad luck, and the wind and clouds are still young." ”
Good-looking people say nice words, distant mountains and streams, pleasing to the eye and ears. Zhao Jinghuan swept away the haze just now, as if he was soothed, and suddenly smiled.
"Thank you Sister Jin for your praise and hard work."
Now it seems that the relationship between the two is warm and friendly again, and everyone has to judge them as friends again, but they always feel that something is strange.
Until Zhao Jinghuan knew that he was satisfied, he no longer bothered, and after politely apologizing to Xie Zhiling, he led people to retreat.
Xu Zikui and these people were so uneasy that they didn't dare to stay for a long time, so they also followed quickly.
As soon as they left, Xie Mingyue came out, and Xie Mingdai followed unhurriedly behind, with a graceful demeanor, and it was difficult to describe the pen and ink.
Of course, Xie Mingyue has always thought that the latter is deliberately showing off her beauty, how can she have her own natural nature.
Naturally, she ran down the stairs in three or two, Xie Zhilin thought that she would run to Mingjin and coquettish or spill with the latter.
It turned out to be not.
She stretched out her paw to Xie Zhizhen first.
"Mengmeng, you're not young, man, don't keep following your aunt..."
Xie Mingyue tried to pull the other party's little fat hand back from Ming Jin's hand, but it attracted Xie Zhizhen's angry glare as if he was looking at an old witch.
Xie Mingyue didn't care, and was about to bully the child in a grand manner, when Mingjin's fingers were slightly curled, and he gently tapped his forehead, and also floated down a light sentence: "How old is it, don't make trouble......"
"Whoever made trouble, it was supposed to be." Xie Mingyue touched her forehead and muttered, but she also obediently let go of Xie Zhizhen.
However, Ming Jin also let go of Xie Zhizhen, pinched the latter's cheek and gently coaxed him to find a good position on the side, and wait to fly a kite with him.
Xie Zhizhen had made a manly and painful choice between the kite and his aunt before, but he didn't expect to be able to have both, so he was naturally happy, so he was surrounded by the maid and the grandmother to find a vacant space.
Xie Mingyue was disgusted, but she also asked the maid to take out the kite she had brought a long time ago, and she said that she was playing with her little nephew......
Scold! Xie Mingdai looked at it coldly and sneered.
"Which Hou Mansion is he from? Familiar with you? When Xie Zhilin was still silent, Xie Mingdai withdrew her contemptuous gaze from Xie Mingyue and asked Mingjin directly.
Ming Jin looked at a large and a small one not far away competing with the kite, and replied casually: "The Mansion of the Marquis of Mingchang is very familiar." ”
Xie Mingdai thought thoughtfully, "I thought he was at odds with you, or with our Xie family." ”
"You're right, he is at odds with me."
"Huh?"
Xie Mingdai couldn't hold back her surprise, and Xie Zhilin didn't control her former self-control, "Then you and him..."
I really don't see that you're at odds.
Ming Jin looked at the surprised faces of the two, and couldn't help but smile, "If it's just a disagreement with me, of course there's no need to be so hypocritical, he won't, and neither will I." ”
"So it's the Hou Mansion behind him who is at odds with our Xie family?" Xie Mingdai and Xie Zhilin had an epiphany at the same time.
"Well, his house is the Marquis of Mingchang's mansion." Ming Jin also has no intention of whetting people's appetites, and concisely puts forward the contradictions between the two families.
"I don't know what happened for the past four years, but five years ago. The loss of the command of the Lingnan Army of the Marquis of Ming Chang is related to my father. ”
The huge official power falls to others, and for the people in the officialdom, it is not weaker than the deep hatred for taking his wife and killing his children.
Xie Mingdai and Xie Zhilin are both smart people, and they knew when they heard this, "Then he came here on purpose to make trouble this time?" ”
The reputation of the Marquis of Mingchang is not small, and even Wuling has long heard of its prominence.
Ming Dai is actually not very sensitive to politics, firstly, her parents have no intention of cultivating her, and secondly, she has no talent, so if even she is familiar, it can be seen that the other party's background is powerful.
It's just that I didn't know that the other party had such a grudge against the Xie family.
Although the Xie family will not be afraid of the other party, Xie Zhilu's previous grievances and forbearance are not wrong.
After all, he is not enough.
"I don't know, maybe it's here to test me, or maybe it's ....." Ming Jin suddenly turned his head to look at Xie Mingdai.
Xie Mingdai's goosebumps rose, her eyebrows were cold, and she whispered, "What kind of crooked idea are you fighting?" ”
"No, I just think he might be here for you."
"Huh?" Xie Mingdai became inexplicably nervous.
Could it be that when did she Xie Mingdai also have such weight and make the family enemy a target?
"I haven't seen her for four years, but Sister Dai is really beautiful."
Ming Jin's eyebrows were crooked, thinking with a smile, and a casual compliment made Xie Mingdai, who had always been bright and unpretentious, stunned and blushing and embarrassed.
"Xie Mingjin, you!"
saw that Ming Jin had taken care of himself and walked over naturally to accompany Hanhan's little nephew to fly a kite.
I don't seem to take this sentence seriously.
can provoke her third sister to be as angry as the scorching sun.
