206 Central Collection
Qiu Bu opened his mouth wide and muttered, "I'll just say how can the little uncle like that wooden stake!" β
Then he realized that something was wrong, "Hey, no, when I said this, that Dong Jin'er didn't say that I was wrong!" β
Qiu Xiyin said, "The little uncle and Princess Chiyang are talking about marriage, and now the eight characters have not been skimmed, and the eldest princess will not let her know at all, most likely you told her, and she only knew about it, so she believed it."
Qiu Buyi snorted suddenly, "Just like her, she is ugly and stupid, her background is there, and she doesn't weigh herself, and she dares to think about her uncle!" β
Qiu Xiyin stared at her coldly, "Fourth sister, this matter was caused by your careless words from beginning to end, so that Miss Dong misunderstood, you should go with me and apologize to the eldest princess now!" β
"Why should I apologize?" I also listened to what Xing'er said, besides, I said that she would believe it, and she wouldn't look in the mirror to see herself! β
Qiu Xiyin knew that Xing'er was her personal maid, and asked, "Who did Xing'er listen to?" β
"And how do I know?" Qiu Buyan glared at her dissatisfied, "Now it's your turn, what are you going to tell me?" β
Qiu Xiyin glanced at Xiaozhu not far away, that apricot, she hadn't seen it for several days, "Concubine Su gave two palace maids to the prince, I heard that they are all very beautiful."
Qiu Buyan immediately retorted, "You lie! β
"How can I lie about this kind of thing? If you don't believe it, just ask."
Qiu Xiyin threw down a sentence and left, that Xing'er must have been bribed by someone to mislead Qiu Buyan and Dong Jin'er.
As for the person who bought her, nine times out of ten it is the old lady Hua!
Only the specific needs to be checked again, Mrs. Hua is an elder, and the person in charge of the Qiu Mansion is the Xie family, so it is better for her to ask Mrs. Qiu to take action.
Dong Jin'er doesn't know if Xing'er has done anything else, as well as Rong and the eldest princess, and I don't know if she has found out, so she has to come forward to clarify it.
She was already familiar with the road of Ronghetang, she did not choose the one that passed through the Water Pavilion, but took a long detour, so as not to run into Dong Jin'er, the matter involved Xie Tanwei, she didn't want to wait for a moment.
She was pondering her thoughts when she heard a surprised voice sound, "Third Miss Qiu, why are you here?" β
Qiu Xiyin raised her head, but it was Yun Feng, Yun Feng was very happy to see her, and said excitedly, "I heard yesterday that Mrs. Qiu was going to come to the county palace as a guest today, but I didn't expect you to come, girl!" Girl, wait a minute, the cook of Zhizhitang has learned a new dim sum, it is very delicious, I will go and see if there is anything else."
Yun Feng was about to leave as he spoke, Qiu Xiyin smiled, "I still have something to do, I can't wait for your snack here, why are you here?" β
This is Rong Hetang, Yun Feng followed Ning Shenzhi on an errand, and he wouldn't appear here if he had nothing to do.
"Oh, the king of the county doesn't know what's wrong, squatting early in the morning to carve things, I'm waiting for 2 and I'm really bored and going around."
Yun Feng said and raised his head to point to the Bodhi tree not far away, Qiu Xiyin subconsciously looked in the direction of his finger, and between the canopy of the Bodhi, Ning Shen's dark green straight clothes almost merged with the lush Bodhi branches and leaves.
This Bodhi is Rong and the eldest princess married into the Ningjun Palace, from the small Xiangguo Temple to here, has hundreds of years of tree age, the previous life Qiu Xiyin just married to the regent palace, not and Ning Shen's round house, with Rong and the eldest princess lived in the Ronghe Hall when they loved this Bodhi very much, often ordered people to set up tables and chairs here to read and paint.
Ning Shenzhi also personally tied a swing to her on the tree, but she was not in good health, she was a little anxious, and after a long time, her heart beat dizzy, and she rarely sits.
At that time, she and Ning Shenzhi had not yet seen each other later......
Ning Shenzhi obviously didn't expect Yun Feng to betray his position so easily, Qiu Xiyin happened to catch the fleeting stunned and cramped on his face when he looked at it, but he quickly recovered his usual calm and indifference, straightened the hem of his clothes, and floated down from the tree calmly and elegantly, and walked in front of Qiu Xiyin with a more calm and elegant attitude, leaning over and waving his hands, "Qiu San Girl".
In his hand he also held a knife, which was only the length of his palm, with a strange shape, and a bright ruby.
Qiu Xiyin returned the salute, "King Ningjun".
Ning Shen swept his eyes at Yun Feng, Yun Feng laughed dryly, turned his head upside down, and disappeared in an instant.
"How did Miss Qiu San get here?"
Ning Shenzhi's voice was very tight, coupled with his cold voice, it was quite a bit of a sense of asking the teacher, this place is remote, without the company of the host, the guests really shouldn't go here.
Qiu Xiyin felt that she should be afraid, in her previous life, not to mention that he put on such a posture of asking for guilt, that is, he softened his voice and talked to her, she was afraid of him, but now, she was strangely not afraid at all, and even weirdly felt that he should be nervous and cramped, so she put on this appearance to hide her nervousness and crampedness.
"When will Princess Chiyang return to Beijing?"
Qiu Xiyin didn't answer the rhetorical question, and sure enough, Ning Shenzhi didn't worry about her not being here at all, and replied, "The affairs of Liangzhou have been arranged, and she is probably afraid that her grandmother will force her to embroider a wedding dress, so she refuses to leave."
Qiu Xiyin saluted again, "If it is convenient, please also ask the king of the county to urge the princess to come to the capital as soon as possible."
Ning Shenzhi's face condensed slightly, "What happened?" β
This kind of thing, the eldest princess Ronghe will definitely not hide it from him, Qiu Xiyin naturally doesn't care about keeping it secret, and simply said the matter, and concluded, "Now I'm just afraid that Xing'er has done something on Miss Dong's side, if Miss Dong wants to fork it, after all, they are relatives, and I'm afraid that it will be difficult to meet in the future."
"She is not a relative".
Qiu Xiyin remembered the rumors that he killed his brother-in-law, married his sister-in-law, and killed his biological father, and couldn't help but look up at him.
Ning Shenzhi regretted it as soon as his words fell, and the meaning in Qiu Xiyin's eyes was too obvious, he couldn't pretend that he didn't know, she was thinking that he was too ruthless!
After a moment of hard work, a cold sweat broke out in Ning Shenzhi's palms, no, he finally managed to make her no longer afraid of him, he couldn't let a Dong Jin'er ruin!
He was trying to think of a way to make up for it, Qiu Xiyin had already saluted and said, "The little girl still has to go to find her grandmother and retire."
Ning Shenzhi blurted out, "I'll go with you."
Qiu Xiyin looked surprised, Ning Shenzhi naturally motioned for her to go to the main hall together, and said, "I have been raised in the Feng family since I was a child, I am not good at poetry and books, and I am always simple-minded.
At that time, it was a little unsightly, and my grandmother married Sister Jin'er's mother far away, not wanting her mother to disappear early, so my grandmother loved Sister Jin very much.
If you and Mrs. Qiu go rashly to say it, grandmother will definitely not like it in her heart, why don't I explore Sister Jin'er's tone first, and then go and tell my grandmother, after you and Mrs. Qiu go back to the house, check the girl named Xing'er, and then make plans."
Qiu Xiyin stopped, "This is the best."
Xu is still young, Ning Shenzhi has told a lot more truth in this life than in his previous life, and until his death in his previous life, he has never spoken to her like this, let alone talking about the county king's mansion Mi Xin back then.
However, she's just an outsider now, and when he talks about this, he's-
Qiu Xiyin couldn't help but look up at him again, he didn't want to meet Ning Shenzhi's gaze this time, he had been looking at her!
Qiu Xiyin's heart jumped, and in the Fengfu of Liangzhou, when she asked him why he was so careless to her, his almost murmuring voice echoed in his ears again, "The center is hidden, when will you forget it-"
The center hides it, and when will it be forgottenββ
For a moment, Qiu Xiyin almost blurted out that she wanted to say what she said in Fengfu again, no matter whether he remembered the events of his previous life or not, no matter how different his life was from his previous life, she would never marry him again!
"Miss Qiu, I want to make a phoenix crown for Anan by myself, and the people below have drawn some tricks, but I am not very satisfied, I don't know if I can work Miss Qiu?"
Qiu Xiyin looked at the knife he was still holding in his hand and nodded, "Tomorrow at the latest, I will send someone to the county king."
"Good".
Qiu Xiyin blessed him, turned to leave, Ning Shenzhi moved his lips, but there was no reason to leave her, watching her back disappear behind a bush of mandarin duck vines, Fang lowered his eyelashes, in fact, he should be happy, if she hadn't noticed that Qiu Buwei was wrong, she wouldn't have come here at all, and he didn't even have a reason to see her......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Mrs. Qiu has come to the door for the third time, and the eldest princess Rong and the eldest princess finally relented, and exchanged Xie Tanwei and Feng Zhinan's Geng posts with Mrs. Qiu.
The matter was done, the eldest princess Ronghe and Mrs. Qiu were very happy, so they started to play cards and sent someone to call a few girls to accompany them, but Dong Jin'er was the only one who didn't want to.
Qiu Buyan entered the depths of the lotus pond, and he couldn't find it at all for a while, and Qiu Xiyin didn't know where he was.
Mrs. Qiu was very embarrassed, apologized again and again, and the eldest princess Rong smiled, "It's better for the young girl's family to be lively, just ask Mama He to accompany us to play cards."
As he spoke, Ning Hengzhi ran in from the outside sweating profusely, calling his grandmother as he ran.
The rarest thing about the eldest princess Rong and the eldest princess is this little grandson, who suddenly smiled, ordered someone to fetch water and pour tea, and personally held a fan to fan him, and asked, "Didn't you go to the palace?" Why did you run back at this time? β
Ning Hengzhi poured a sip of tea, and put it down in disgust, "I want to eat ice bowls."
As he spoke, he saw Mrs. Qiu, and hurriedly leaned over to salute, and said with a smile, "Grandmother, I heard that Qiu San is also here, come back and take a look, I made a bet with Xiao Bocai at that time, gambling that Qiu San will definitely be more beautiful than Qiu Si when he grows up, and I haven't seen her since Qiu San came back!" β
Rong and the eldest princess slapped him in disgust, "Mrs. Qiu is still there!" What nonsense! β
Ning Hengzhi grinned at Mrs. Qiu, "Mrs. Qiu won't blame me!" At that time, Mrs. Tai told me to bet on revenge three, and I bet five thousand taels! β
"That was when I was a child, how old are you now, how old are the three girls Qiu, don't be abrupt, do you know?"
Ning Hengzhi was not afraid of her, and pulled her sleeve coquettishly, "Got it, grandmother, hey, what about Qiu San?" Didn't they all come? β
Qiu Xiyin heard this sentence as soon as he got closer, and his brows furrowed, Ning Hengzhi's temperament in this life is much better than in his previous life, but he still can't say that he is likable.
Ning Hengzhi had already seen her, and ran out happily, and when he saw it clearly, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Qiu San, you are much more beautiful than when you were a child!" β
In this life, Qiu Xiyin deliberately changed her too cold and high-minded temperament in her previous life, and one of the most direct results was Ning Hengzhi's annoying appearance that she was very familiar with!
Qiu Xiyin leaned over and saluted, "Second Master Ning."
Ning Hengzhi winked at her ambiguously, "Qiu San, the uncle of your family who corrupted the door, I helped you clean him up, how about it?" How do you thank me? β
Qiu Xiyin glanced at him coldly, then I really want to thank you!
Ning Hengzhi stopped doing it, "Hey, what do you mean by that?" Blame me for disgrace your family? He said that I was more handsome than the most expensive sister in the building, and I didn't care about him for the sake of you, Mr. Qiu, and Mrs. Qiu! β
Qiu Xiyin didn't smile, "Then I really want to thank you!" β
Ning Hengzhi sneered lightly with disdain, and didn't care about her, and entered the house side by side with her.
The eldest princess Rong and the eldest princess exempted Qiu Xiyin's salute and said with a smile, "Since this little ancestor is back, come here, go and see if the king of the county has come back, and when he comes back, he will also invite him to talk to Mrs. Tai."
The maid responded, and the eldest princess Rong and the eldest princess set up the card table and asked, "Who are you villains?" β
Dong Jin'er hurriedly said, "Grandmother, my card skills are not good, so I will help my grandmother read the cards on the side, right?" β
Rong and the eldest princess responded, and Ning Hengzhi raised his eyebrows at Qiu Xiyin, "Qiu San, you are good at reading, you will definitely not be able to compare to me when you play cards, don't be angry if you lose for a while."
Qiu Xiyin, "......"
If it weren't for Rong and the eldest princess here, I really wanted to kick this product out and expose it to the sun for a few hours!
A few people have not finished playing a card, Ning Shenzhi came, after a salute, Qiu Xiyin said, "King of the county, you come to play, I will show the card to the grandmother."
Ning Shenzhi didn't expect her to take the initiative to talk to herself, and she was stunned before saying, "I won't do this, or I'll show Mrs. Tai the cards."
Rong and the eldest princess snorted, "No, can't you learn?" It just so happens that you are free today, otherwise my old woman will live for a few years, and she may not be able to wait for her grandson to play cards with her in this life! β
Qiu Xiyin stepped back, Ning Shenzhi stood there with his hands tied, and repeated a little crampedly, "I, I won't."
"Qiu San girl, you help him look at the cards, and teach him by the way."
Ning Hengzhi wanted to say that he taught Ning Shenzhi to fight, but just as he was about to speak, he found that Ning Shenzhi's gaze fell on his face, his heart jumped, and he quickly recalled whether he had done anything angry and resentful just now, so he missed the best opportunity.
Qiu Xiyin quickly glanced at Rong and the eldest princess, and was a little unsure that she was doing this on purpose, or just by chance, but Rong and the eldest princess both said it, and she refused again, but she looked petty, and after thinking about it, she said, "The king of the county has never played, why don't I play two cards to demonstrate first, and then let the king of the county practice."
The eldest princess Rong and the eldest princess nodded, and instructed the maid to move a brocade stool and put it behind Qiu Xiyin, Ning Shenzhi said with a tense face, "I'll just stand."
The eldest princess snorted and said to Mrs. Qiu, "So the grandson is not as intimate as the girl's family, you said that I raised him so big and asked him to play cards with me, so he deliberately made this appearance to anger me!" β
