077 - Close and timid

Guan Zhu reluctantly stopped, turned around and asked Yinxiang for peace.

In fact, when Yinxiang asked Guan Zhu to pretend to be sick that day, he was reluctant, but he thought that he could let Yinlu come to his house to play, so he reluctantly agreed. On this day, Guan Zhu was held in the house, and he didn't know how many times he complained about Yinxiang.

Especially after the hanging toad came in the morning, Guan Zhu became more and more nervous in his heart, for fear that Nian Sheng would know what to clean himself up.

Now that Yinxiang is holding him, he must have asked him to help him go to see his seventh sister. Guan Zhu looked at the little uncle standing next to Yinxiang, thinking about his seventh sister's reaction when she saw outsiders entering her courtyard, and suddenly felt that her life was short.

Guan Zhu asked Yinxiang to say goodbye with a bitter face, and looked at him with blank eyes, only hoping that he could let himself go.

Yinxiang came here for a clear purpose, that is, to confirm with his own eyes that the voice was okay, how could he easily let go of Guan Zhu? However, because Hongtai followed, he had to say first: "Don't be in a hurry to play, the sixteenth elder brother brought the homework left by Mr. to you." I will take care of my body at home, and it is the right thing to go back to the study early. ”

Guan Zhu bowed his head and promised one by one.

Yinlu on the side was impatient, and interrupted Yinxiang's words, "Thirteenth brother, we said that we came to see Guan Zhu, you always teach you like this, how can we talk and play?" ”

Yinxiang had no temper with the sixteenth elder brother, smiled helplessly and let them play, thinking about how to send Hongtai away.

But Hongtai was loyal to his duties and accompanied the two distinguished guests, but he didn't say that he would accompany him first.

Yinxiang had no choice but to speak: "Their children are playing here, and it is boring for us to stay, but it will hinder their eyes." Just now I saw that the scenery in the house was excellent, and I had time to savor it in a hurry in the future, why don't Hongtai accompany me to take a look around? ”

This is decent, although Hongtai feels a little strange, but it is not easy to refuse, so he got up and asked Yinxiang to go along.

Along the way, Hongtai gradually realized that something was wrong, no matter how he led the way, the thirteenth elder brother would always point to a scene in the direction of the small courtyard where Nian Sheng lived to take a closer look.

The two of them walked and walked, and they actually came to a place where there was only a layer of flowers and trees left to cover Niansheng's residence.

Seeing that the destination was close at hand, Yinxiang had no idea. It's impossible to take Hongtai, in the inner courtyard of the house, it's too unseemly to leave the main house and wander around by yourself, but if you don't take a look, wouldn't it be in vain if you come in such a big circle?

Just when Yinxiang was struggling in his heart, Hongtai on the side suddenly became empathetic, "Does the Thirteenth Master have anything on his mind?" ”

No matter what Hongtai asked, Yinxiang was shocked in his heart, for fear of being seen through, so he quickly denied it, "No." What can I think about? But while speaking, I couldn't help but look at the "mint green" that was close in front of me.

Looking at the reaction of the thirteenth elder brother, Hongtai probably knew what was going on.

When he came back from the paddock this time, Hongtai heard a lot of discussion among the colleagues who followed, and the smarter ones joked with him about the thirteenth elder brother saving Nian Sheng and the sixteenth elder brother, and said something like a beauty and a hero. But there are also those who are closer to him who want him to tell his eldest brother, saying that he saw several elder brothers who were jealous for the sake of their voices, and they almost made a move, so they asked Lord Marhan to be careful. Naturally, there were some unbearable words circulating, but no one dared to say it in front of him.

At the moment, it seems that Hongtai is willing to believe it, not to mention the side, just this thirteen elder brothers, probably really have that mind. I remembered what my niece said when she was in the palace: "Then I will marry him." Hongtai felt that this matter was gradually becoming interesting.

So Hongtai took the initiative to speak: "Alas. It's a pity. ”

Yinxiang was embarrassed in his heart, listening to Hongtai's words, he was busy asking what was the matter.

"It's a pity that my niece broke the family law the day before yesterday and was beaten by my sister-in-law, and now she is raising her in her own yard. If she should be in the account room on weekdays, then the slave can lead the thirteenth master into her yard to have a look. Hongtai said with "regret".

"What's there to see in a woman's courtyard?" Yinxiang said that there is a lot of taste of three hundred taels of silver here.

Hongtai saw that he refused to tell the truth, and he was not in a hurry, but only teased him slowly. "The thirteenth master doesn't know, my niece has to be pampered by my eldest brother, the strange flowers and plants in the yard can be described as fragrant all year round, and the back garden in the house can't be compared. It's a shame that I can't invite you to enjoy it. ”

Yinxiang listened to Hongtai's description, but in his mind was standing among the flowers and plants with a smile, thinking that a fair-skinned and delicate person like her was really more delicate than flowers?

"Why don't you go and ask someone?" Hongtai pointed to the courtyard of Niansheng and asked Yinxiang.

Yinxiang asked rhetorically with some puzzlement: "What do you ask?" ”

"Ask if I can let my niece close the door first, as if she wasn't there. The minion took you in and walked around and came out, and no one on the left and right could see anyone, and it wasn't a mess of the rules. A hint of cunning flashed in Hongtai's eyes.

"Hmm......" Yinxiang almost opened his mouth and agreed, "I still don't want to." When the words came to his mouth, he changed his words, "It's inconvenient after all." Besides, you and I men, it's not very interesting to enjoy those flowers and plants. ”

Of course, Yinxiang wanted to see Niansheng in his heart, otherwise what would he do with such a hard time. But when he really came to this, he suddenly found that for some reason, he didn't dare to face the voice. Even if he passed by her through the door as Hongtai said, he couldn't bear it.

Yinxiang finally made up his mind and pulled Hongtai and said, "No, no, no." It's not a small house, so you can take me to other places. Last time, I heard Starling say that Lord Marhan likes to fish, and he also built a small pond for this purpose, but it's true. "I'm in a hurry to get away from the topic so I don't miss it anymore.

Seeing Yinxiang like this, Hongtai was no longer reluctant, so he took him to the small pond where he was fishing. At the same time, my impression of Yinxiang was inexplicably better.

After a short walk, because he promised Yinlu to take him to the market, Yinxiang said goodbye to Hongtai.

After picking up Yinlu from the Guanzhu Courtyard, the brothers left the Marhan Mansion together.

On one side, Nian Sheng was lying in the house waiting to see how the thirteenth elder brother entered her yard, and on the other side, Guan Zhu wanted to know if Yinxiang had succeeded.

So Guan Zhu sent the two elder brothers away with his front foot, and turned into the courtyard of Niansheng with his back foot, and he didn't let anyone report it, so he ran in shouting "Seventh Sister, Seventh Sister" while running.

Nian Sheng didn't expect Guan Zhu to come, so he didn't get up, and pointed to the bed, "Here." What's wrong? ”

Guan Zhu ran into the Niansheng house, and when he saw that she still looked weak, he couldn't help blurting out: "Seventh sister, did the thirteenth master bully you?" ”

As soon as Nian Sheng heard Guan Zhu mention Yinxiang, he immediately came to his senses, propped himself up and pretended not to know and asked him: "What thirteen masters?" ”

"The Thirteenth Master has come to our house." Guan Zhu rubbed on Niansheng's bed with sophistication, "What? He didn't come to see you? But he was pushed down by the voice.

"Go, go, go. Sit and go! Nian Sheng pushed the switch post in disgust, and asked the hanging toad to move an embroidery pier for him and put it in front of the bed, "Didn't you say that you were sick?" Why are you still playing like a mud monkey? ”

"Seventh Sister ......"

"Sit there!" Nian Sheng stopped the pillar again. "Let's talk about it. What's going on? ”

Guan Zhu sat on the embroidery pier unwillingly, pouted and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Nian Sheng squinted his eyes and looked at Guan Zhu, and said word by word: "Thirteenth master? The long tail note made people shudder.

Guan Zhu saw that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to confess to Niansheng, "But it's all his idea!" It had nothing to do with me, I didn't want to at first. "Don't forget to take yourself out.

After listening to Guan Zhu's words, Nian Sheng quietly felt a trace of pride in his heart, mixed with a little happiness, but he couldn't reveal it in front of Guan Zhu, so he couldn't help but say, "But you were still willing later, didn't you?" ”

"That's because the Thirteenth Master said that this is the only way to bring the Sixteenth Elder Brother out......" Guan Zhu lowered his head and snapped his fingers and said, "Actually, the Sixteenth Elder Brother has long wanted to come to our house to play, so I agreed." ”

Looking at his brother's expression, Nian Sheng somewhat understood Guan Zhu's thoughts. "Do you want Brother Sixteen to come to your house to play with you from time to time like your other friends?"

"Seventh sister, don't you think the sixteenth elder brother is pitiful?" Guan Zhu suddenly raised his head, looked at Nian Sheng and asked.

"Pathetic?" Nian Sheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Guan Zhu explained: "As soon as I go home, I can see Eniang, and the seventh sister you play with me." But the sixteenth elder brother can only see the concubine Niangniang when he asks for peace. Amma was always teaching me, but I knew he was always listening to me outside his study. The sixteenth elder brother said that he would never see the emperor......"

Nian Sheng listened to Guan Zhu's words, and couldn't help but sigh softly, the world only says that it is the most rich and noble emperor's family, but how many people know the helplessness of being in the emperor's family? Even if they are eunuchs like them, I am afraid that there will be many hardships for outsiders.

"Come on." Nian Sheng stretched out his hand to Guan Zhu, pulled the younger brother to his side, and gently circled him and said, "Seventh Sister is very happy that you have such a mind and such kindness. ”

Guan Zhu leaned on his sister's arms, raised his little face and looked at Nian Sheng seriously and asked, "Then Seventh Sister, are you not angry with me?" ”

"One yard to one yard." Nian Sheng rested his chin on Guan Zhu's head. "You are good to the sixteenth elder brother, the seventh sister can understand. But you can't forgive lying about it. ”

"But the thirteenth elder brother said that I was doing this out of kindness, and it can't be regarded as a lie." Guan Zhu was afraid that Nian Sheng would really get angry and ignore himself, so he hurriedly explained.

The voice whispered: "He will open up." Then he pulled Guan Zhu and prepared to tell him the truth in this.

Guan Zhu knew that Nian Sheng would not let go of himself so easily, but he didn't dare to make her angry again, so he had to listen patiently.

Nian Sheng had just said three or two sentences, Guan Zhu suddenly thought of a good way to divert the topic, and blinked at Nian Sheng and said, "Seventh sister, you haven't told me that the Thirteenth Master came to see you?" ”
