Chapter 174: Suspicious, Don't Believe in Coincidence
Ling Xun looked at Huo Sijin in a daze, his eyes were deep and his expression was complicated.
Huo Sijin's heart sank, Ling Xun's eyes looking at her at this moment were very abnormal, not the amazing gaze of a man when he saw a beauty, nor the vulgar eyes with evil thoughts, but an indescribable look.
From the first time she woke up and saw Ling Xun, Ling Xun had always behaved perfectly, without any flaws, except for this strange look in her eyes at the moment. This was the first time Ling Xun had lost his temper in front of her.
Why did Ling Xun lose his temper? Huo Sijin was puzzled, was it because she changed into women's clothes?
"Young Master Ling?"
Huo Sijin's voice sounded in his ears, Ling Xun came back to his senses, withdrew his deep gaze, and bowed to Huo Sijin, his tone was quite apologetic, "I'm out of shape, please don't blame Miss Jing." ”
"Miss Jing looks so good, it's no wonder that the girl wants to dress up as a man." Ling Xun said with a smile, his expression was calm, he simply praised her beauty from the side, and there was nothing inappropriate in his words and deeds, showing the demeanor of a humble gentleman just right.
And Fang Cai's momentary gaffe was also gently revealed. If it weren't for Huo Sijin being a person who had experienced two lives, she would really have been fooled by Ling Xun. The more flawless Ling Xun's performance was at the moment, the more worthy of food for thought became in his gaffe.
However, Huo Sijin only pretended not to know, bowed his head slightly, and looked shy, "Ling Gongzi praised it falsely. ”
Ling Xun shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm not talking nonsense, I've seen a lot of pretty women, but there really isn't one who can compare to Miss Jing." It is said that Xiao's mother and daughter Xiao's father, Miss Jing, you are so beautiful, I think your father should be a rare beautiful man, right? ”
"I would venture to ask, who is more outstanding in appearance than Miss Jing's father and Zaixia?" As he spoke, Ling Xun touched his chin thoughtfully, "I also want a beautiful daughter in the future." ”
Huo Sijinxing's eyes widened, surprised, and felt very funny, "Look at Ling Gongzi's age, right, this is thinking of having children?" ”
Ling Xun chuckled and said, "I am the only son in the family, so I got married early." I don't want to hide it from the girl, I like my daughter very much, and I very much hope to have a daughter who is like a fairy in the future. ”
"In terms of appearance, my father is not as good as his son." Huo Sijin really carefully recalled the appearance of Jingbei Hou. Jingbei Hou's appearance is indeed good, but if he compares it with Ling Xun in front of him, it is naturally inferior, not to mention that Jingbei Hou has entered middle age now, even when he was young, he was not as good as Ling Xun.
Hearing this, Ling Xun laughed and said, "Then Miss Jing, do you look like your father?" is still like your mother, if it is like your father, then my wish is more likely to come true, and my daughter will be even more beautiful than you in the future. ”
"Hmm......" Huo Sijin hesitated for a moment, then spread his hands helplessly, "I'm more like my mother." ”
She hadn't explored who she looked like before, but after Ling Xun mentioned this, she thought about it carefully, not to mention Jingbei Hou, even her mother Yang, she didn't have much similarity, but if you look closely at her facial features, there is still a little shadow of Yang.
Ling Xun's face lightened a little, and then he said, "It's okay if it's not like my father, my wife is also very good-looking." I heard that many people are like this, the silhouette is like their father, but if you look carefully at the facial features, especially the eyebrows, eyes and nose slightly follow the mother, I don't know if Miss Jing is like this? If my daughter's facial features follow her mother's in the future, she will also be a beauty. ”
Huo Sijin said with a light smile: "The appearance of children is not completely according to their parents, but Ling Gongzi, you and your wife are good-looking people, and the children born in the future will naturally not be bad." ”
Ling Xun nodded thoughtfully, "Miss Jing, what you said is right, it's me who is anxious. By the way, I have already sent someone to inform your uncle, if there is no accident, I believe that your uncle will be here soon. ”
Huo Sijin hurriedly thanked, "Thank you, Young Master Ling." ”
This place is not far from the capital, as long as Ling Xun really went to the Hutchison pastry shop as she said, naturally someone would come to pick her up, and she would be able to leave today.
However, it backfired, Huo Sijin waited from morning to afternoon, and no one came to pick her up. Huo Sijin was a little anxious.
Just when she was about to sit still, Ling Xun came again, "Miss Jing, the person who went to report the news hasn't come back yet, but don't worry, I sent someone there just now, there should be news soon, you are afraid that you will be in a hurry, come and tell you." ”
Ling Xun opened his mouth, what else could Huo Sijin say, the other party was thoughtful, she could only be grateful, "Let Ling Gongzi bother." ”
Having said that, she had a faint feeling in her heart that Ling Xun didn't seem to want her to go. Although Ling Xun's behavior was normal, Huo Sijin still felt this way.
She silently looked forward in her heart, hoping that she was thinking too much, if Ling Xun really had other plans, then she would be in big trouble.
Ling Xun chatted with her without a match, although he said something inconsequential, Huo Sijin still maintained his vigilance and was unwilling to slack off in the slightest.
About an hour later, someone came to tell him that they were coming.
"Is my uncle, the treasurer of Hutchison?" Huo Sijin asked with a happy face.
Ling Xun stood up, "Miss Jing, let's go, your uncle is here to pick you up, I'll send you over." ”
Huo Sijin followed Ling Xun to the front yard, and sure enough, she saw the shopkeeper of Hutchison, but the smile on her face instantly faded, and she hurriedly walked over, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?" ”
The man was good with the shopkeeper, but he sat in a chair with a thick white gauze wrapped around his legs, and the blood stains on the gauze were clearly visible, and his face was extremely pale.
When the shopkeeper saw Huo Sijin at first glance, he was shocked, but fortunately, he had good concentration and did not exclaim. Huo Sijin didn't wear makeup, and he recognized the shopkeeper, this face was his master Huo Changjin, but what happened to this woman's dress?
"Uncle, I'm Jing Si, your niece, do you remember?" Huo Sijin reminded.
When she said this, it reminded the shopkeeper that his master had a sibling sister, and it seemed that this girl was his eldest lady, Huo Sijin.
Sijin, Jingsi. Yes, this girl must be the eldest lady of his family.
But this uncle, even more unbearable, he is a subordinate, how dare he be the uncle. But because he was now in an outsider's house, since the young lady shouted like this, he couldn't refute it, so he had to answer vaguely and in a low voice, "I remember, Xiao ...... Girl, you look like your brother. ”
Huo Sijin instantly understood, and the dare and shopkeeper thought she was Huo Sijin, no, she was originally Huo Sijin.
However, that's fine, she doesn't have to explain anything to the shopkeeper, in front of the shopkeeper, she is Huo Sijin.
"I knew that although my uncle hadn't seen me for many years, he would recognize me when he looked at my face." Huo Sijin smiled.
Ling Xun stood aside, negotiated a few words with his subordinates, and then walked over and said, "Miss Jing, I'm really sorry, on the way here, the carriage accidentally overturned, causing your uncle to hurt his leg, so I delayed the time, I'm really sorry." I see that it is getting late at this time, and your uncle is also unable to move, so it is better for you to rest here today, and talk about the rest tomorrow. ”
To be honest, Huo Sijin didn't want to stay here, but she looked at the shopkeeper and saw that his face was pale and weak, and it seemed that he was not lightly injured, and it must be dark when he went back at this time, which was indeed inappropriate.
"Okay then, I'm tired of Ling Gongzi." Huo Sijin nodded.
……
After the others left, he and the shopkeeper were about to speak, Huo Sijin gestured to him, the wall has ears, this is Ling Xun's territory, be careful everywhere.
"Uncle, does it matter if you are injured, you can walk tomorrow?" Huo Sijin asked, "You tell the truth, don't be reckless." ”
He looked at his leg with the shopkeeper, in fact, the injury was not light, he thought about it, and replied: "It's no problem to take the carriage." ”
In other words, don't move around too much, or you'll get a wound.
Huo Sijin pondered for a moment and said, "That's okay, tomorrow we will leave with Ling Gongzi." You have a good rest, I'll live next door to you, don't worry. ”
After coming out of the shopkeeper, Huo Sijin went back to his room to rest, while Xiaolan kept vigil outside as usual. Huo Sijin seemed to be used to it, smiled at Xiaolan and said hard work, and went into the house to sleep.
At night, Huo Sijin got up to go to the toilet, and Xiaolan hurriedly followed.
"Xiaolan, I already know where Gongfang is, I'll go by myself, you don't have to follow me."
However, Xiaolan shook her head, "The son has ordered, I want the slave to serve the girl well, and I can't be lazy." ”
Huo Sijin didn't object anymore, but said lightly: "What a girl with solid eyes." ”
When he was about to enter Gong's room, Huo Sijin said: "Xiaolan, it may be a bit long, you can sit there and wait for me,"
"Girl, are you having a tummy?" Xiaolan hurriedly asked with concern.
Huo Sijin sneered on his face, "Maybe I ate a little too much today, Xiaolan, don't ask, just sit there and wait for me to come out, okay?" ”
Seeing Huo Sijin's embarrassed face and his voice low, Xiaolan didn't ask much, and sat obediently on the edge of the corridor not far away.
Entering the Gong room, Huo Sijin breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this Xiaolan doesn't have so many eyes, otherwise it would be really difficult to deceive. She walked to the wall, opened the window gently, poked her head out, saw that there was no one around, and then flipped out of the window lightly.
The terrain in the courtyard of the house, she had inadvertently explored all of it during the day, and taking advantage of the darkness of the night, she quietly walked towards Ling Xun's room.
and the shopkeeper accidentally fell and injured herself, Huo Sijin didn't believe that it was an accident or a coincidence, she felt more and more that this was deliberately arranged by Ling Xun, as for the purpose, she was afraid that she would stay here.
Tomorrow, she will inevitably say goodbye and leave, if Ling Xun wants to leave her, he will definitely do something tonight.
Ling Xun's room was indeed still lit, and there were guards guarding outside, Huo Sijin didn't dare to rush forward, so he quietly hid behind a tree.
