Chapter 35: Undercurrents
The two followed the group to the front hall.
A sumptuous lunch was indeed prepared in the hall, and it was almost noon, so everyone had to eat, but the atmosphere was a little frozen.
Seeing this, Su Shi had no choice but to come out to ease the atmosphere, "Qingqing, you finally came back to eat more!" Then he picked up the chopsticks and put vegetables into Sun Qingqing's bowl.
She had already seen that Sun Qingqing was unhappy, so she tried her best to pick up those dishes that looked good, but were not delicious, and put them in Sun Qingqing's bowl.
Looking at the food she put in her bowl, all of them were bad, Sun Qingqing couldn't help but sneer in her heart, she didn't know Su Shi's thoughts, "Let's give these to my sister." ”
"And my sister hasn't returned home yet, Su Niang should prepare lunch for her sister alone."
Then he sandwiched all the dishes in the bowl into the empty bowl next to him.
Because he didn't explain to his subordinates, the subordinates prepared an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks.
Seeing Sun Qingqing mention Sun Jiayao, Su Shi smiled proudly at the moment, and his face couldn't hide his joy, "Today, Jiayao accompanied His Royal Highness the Second Prince, so I don't have to wait for her." ”
Sun Qingqing pretended to be surprised and raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Second Prince? ”
Su Shi nodded again and again, as if Sun Jiayao was already the second princess now, and covered his mouth and chuckled, "The second prince is the dragon and phoenix among people, if the second prince can take a fancy to my Jiayao, it will be considered a wish of mine." ”
The corners of Sun Qingqing's mouth gently hooked up a mocking arc, "So when my sister asked me to marry the prince, was it just so that I could marry the second prince?" ”
These words immediately shaped Sun Jiayao into a wicked woman who disregarded the thoughts of others for her own selfish interests.
As soon as these words came out, Su Shi suddenly felt bad, and hurriedly waved his hand, "That's not the case." When is this emotional matter destined? I also didn't expect Jia Yao to be able to meet His Royal Highness the Second Prince now. ”
Sun Qingqing sneered, and then added: "And Su Niang said that the second prince is the dragon and phoenix among people, could it be that the prince is not a dragon and phoenix among people?" ”
Li Shengshu took a sip of tea at this moment, and when he saw Sun Qingqing mentioning himself, he looked at Su Shi meaningfully.
Su Shi pulled out a hypocritical smile in embarrassment, although he thought that Li Shengshu was once very powerful, but he was now useless.
That must not even be comparable to a finger of the second prince, but she categorically can't say this in front of the parties.
hurriedly smiled and said: "Qingqing's words are really embarrassing. The prince is naturally also a dragon and phoenix among people. ”
Sun Qingqing's eyes were light, and her eyes were full of cunning, "Then since you said that the prince is also a dragon and phoenix among people, why doesn't my sister marry the prince, but must marry His Royal Highness the Second Prince?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Su Shi was speechless.
Li Shengshu on the side looked at Sun Qingqing with interest, although she was sharp and sharp, forcing the person in front of her to retreat, and she couldn't get the upper hand in half a sentence, but he still didn't think this woman was very cute.
Sun Dewu put down his chopsticks heavily and scolded in a low voice: "Su Shi, don't say it." ”
Su Shi saw Sun Dewu yelling at herself, and felt extremely aggrieved at the moment, a trace of sadness crossed her face that still existed, and she still looked at Sun Dewu with her unique Danfeng eyes with seductive charm.
But now she is no longer a little girl. Besides, Su's skin has begun to sag, and there are many more wrinkles on his eyes, so doing such an action only makes people feel contrived.
Sun Dewu felt a little unhappy inexplicably.
"Sir..."
"Master, don't blame me for this, blame Qingqing..."
On the side, Li Shengshu's eyes seemed to look at her like a sharp sword.
The rest of the resentful words of Sun Qingqing, Su Shi immediately swallowed it into his stomach.
"Alright, let's stop here."
Sun Dewu relieved his breath, and felt that Su was indeed not to blame for this matter, it was all because Sun Qingqing was provoking it, he turned his head and said to Su Shi: "I asked the steward to go to the back mountain to bring a few boxes of fruits, do you go to the back garden to see if they are coming?" ”
Knowing that Sun Dewu deliberately supported himself, Su Shi quickly nodded and left.
"Don't be surprised, my wife has always been raised in the boudoir. is not very good at talking, which makes the prince smile. ”
The implication of his words was that Su's mind was too simple, and Sun Qingqing's mind was gloomy, so he said those rebellious words.
Li Shengshu smiled slightly, "Really? ”
Sun Dewu's body trembled, as if Li Shengshu had seen through his thoughts, and he smiled at the moment and didn't say much.
"Eat vegetables and eat vegetables, if you don't eat vegetables, it will be cold, and eating it cold is not good for your stomach." Laughing and playing the round, he didn't say anything more at the moment.
Sun Qingqing looked at the back of Su Shi leaving, and the jade wrench finger he put in his purse also felt a little hot.
There is one more important thing for her to come back today, that is, she came to the Su family to get back the real jade wrench.
"Lord, the concubine is full, and the concubine goes out for a walk to eliminate food."
Sun Qingqing whispered in Li Shengshu's ear.
A trace of darkness flashed in Li Shengshu's eyes, looking at the untouched dishes in Sun Qingqing's bowl, he knew that Sun Qingqing must have something to do, and immediately said, "Go early and return early." ”
Sun Qingqing nodded, then put down the chopsticks and disappeared from everyone's sight.
All the way to the west, Sun Qingqing finally found the Su family.
Basically, all the people went to the front hall to serve Li Shengshu, and at the moment, in this huge back garden, there was only one Su family.
"Sun Qingqing, what are you doing here?"
Su squinted at Sun Qingqing, there were no outsiders at the moment, and her tone was naturally not polite.
Sun Qingqing asked coldly, "Where did you put my jade wrench?" ”
Su Shi pretended to be puzzled and frowned, "Your jade wrench finger has already been put into your dowry." ”
Sun Qingqing glanced at her with deep meaning, and said in a mocking tone: "Really? ”
Seeing Sun Qingqing questioning herself, Su Shi snorted coldly, "How much is your jade wrench worth?" Don't ruin my reputation. ”
Looking at her stiff appearance of a dead duck, Sun Qingqing sneered and took out the jade wrench from her arms.
"Isn't this jade wrench on you? You're really weird, come to me. ”
"Then Su Niang is optimistic."
Immediately afterwards, Sun Qingqing mercilessly smashed this jade wrench finger on the ground, "Please Su Niang open your eyes and take a look, this jade wrench is a fake at all." ”
"This thing isn't even a piece of jade."
The fake jade wrench shattered on the ground, making a muddy and deep sound.
Su couldn't help but step back. looked at the scene in front of him in horror.
Immediately afterwards, Sun Qingqing picked up a pebble next to him and smashed it on the ground, and the sound was no different from the sound of the jade wrench.
"Does Su Niang think that the sound of this jade wrench is very similar to the sound of these ten pieces? Oh no, it's not similar, it's exactly the same. ”
Su Shi smiled, pretended to be puzzled and asked: "I can't hear the difference between these sounds because of my mother's ear, even if you smash the real jade, I can't hear it, what is Qingqing wanting?" ”
knew that she was deliberately covering up, and Sun Qingqing didn't bother to grind with her at the moment.
"Su Niang, how long are you going to lie to me?" Sun Qingqing's tone was cold, mixed with a terrifying murderous aura.
It's not just to covet this jade wrench, and this jade wrench is an object that the original owner repeatedly told her to protect before she died.
Even if it's just to fulfill the original owner's wish, she must get this jade wrench in her hands.
Frightened by her terrifying appearance, Su couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Stretched out his finger and pointed at Sun Qingqing tremblingly, "You are lying!" I obviously stuffed it into your dowry, and you must have forged it to deceive me. ”
Sun Qingqing approached step by step.
She had a chilling smile on her face, but a delicate face that made people tremble, as if she were not a young girl, but a demon who had crawled up from hell.
"Really?" It was just two monosyllabic words, but she still said the smell of blood.
"Don't come here!" Su Shi couldn't help screaming, his face was pale, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
"Hand it over to me." Sun Qingqing said in a low voice.
Su Shi clenched her fists, as if she had thought of something, she pursed her lips, unwilling to say another word.
Mama Qian, who came to ventilate at this moment, was surprised by the scene in front of her, and immediately said, "Princess, what are you doing?" ”
Seeing that someone had finally come, Su couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Mrs. Su, the slave has something important to tell."
Seeing that there were outsiders present, Sun Qingqing had no choice but to restrain her temperament and stand aside and look at Su Shi coldly.
Su Shi hurriedly ran to Mama Qian, only to see that Mama Qian seemed to have an urgent matter, and she didn't care about saluting Sun Qingqing at the moment, and whispered something in Su's ear.
"That's it..."
I saw Su's face change suddenly.
It was as if I was amazed to the extreme.
Sun Qingqing couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, quite interested in the content of the conversation between Mama Qian and the Su family.
"Sun Qingqing, I'll talk to you about this matter another day, now I have something important, so I'll take a step first." Snorted coldly at Sun Qingqing, and the Su family hurriedly followed Mama Qian and left.
Sun Qingqing looked at the back of the two of them leaving, which was meaningful.
Immediately after holding her breath and concentrating, she followed.
Unhurriedly followed the two of them about ten meters behind, and saw that the two of them were sneaky, and looked behind him from time to time. Sun Qingqing's curiosity was all hooked.
Listening closely, I saw that the two of them were talking about crazy women or something.
Sun Qingqing's mind flashed a thousand pictures, and she still didn't find the impression of a crazy woman in the memory of the original owner, and she couldn't help but become more and more curious at the moment, but before she raised her eyes again, where were the two of them in front of her?
Damn, she lost it.
Annoyed in her heart, Sun Qingqing had no choice but to return to the front hall again.
When I arrived in the front hall, I found that Li Shengshu and Sun Dewu were still relatively silent.
Seeing that Sun Qingqing finally came back, Li Shengshu looked at her, and saw that she was safe and sound and did not have an argument with anyone, and for some reason he was relieved.
Xu has been with Sun Qingqing for a long time, and he has also begun to worry about her safety.
