"Two beautiful maids?"
Jing Xi always felt that this plot was very familiar.
After thinking about it for a long time, it occurred to me that this was what Xuan Yin did to Murong Yu in the original book.
When he knew that Murong Yu was also interested in Bai Lu, he simply sent him two beautiful maids.
Although I didn't say it explicitly, the meaning is obvious, don't rob me of women, and send two beautiful ones to you to play with at once.
It's just that I didn't expect that now the plot has changed.
Murong Yu didn't fall in love with Bai Lu, and Sheng Ting didn't seem to be either, but Xuan Yin saw Bai Lu delivering food to Sheng Ting, maybe he misunderstood something.
So the plot of giving away the beautiful maid was transferred to Sheng Ting.
Jing Xi could only say that even if Sheng Ting went to Xuanyin to denounce Bai Lu as a woman dressed as a man, I am afraid it would be useless.
Because the current Xuanyin is probably impossible to let Bai Lu leave his side.
In the original book, it was written that the two maidservants were as beautiful as immortals, with docile and gentle personalities, and they couldn't be asked for by many people, but they were retreated by Murong Yu to Xuanyin intact.
It's just that now it's Sheng Ting, but after all, he is not Murong Yu on an equal footing with Xuan Yin, and he can't just go back the way he came.
Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass, and Sheng Ting has not remarried since he left.
He didn't know what he would do to these two beautiful maids, but she cared about Xiangyun.
It happened that Xiangyun came over with a plate of fried peanuts: "Mother, Aunt Sixi said that this can be eaten and played, let me take it out and eat it with you and Uncle Fang." ”
Jing Xi squatted down in front of Xiangyun: "Xiangyun, you are not young anymore, my mother will find you a private school to read and write, and ride a horse to send you there every morning and take you home in the evening, okay?" ”
"Then Brother Sheng Yuan is also going?"
"Go, you go and read together."
Xiangyun nodded: "I just have a companion." ”
Jing Xi touched Xiangyun's head: "Then do it, I'll talk to your grandmother when I go back." ”
As soon as Jingxi's words fell, Mrs. Sheng wearing an apron appeared at the door of Jingxi's house.
"Grandma." Jingxi stood up.
Mrs. Sheng answered, wiping her hands and walking towards Jingxi.
"Xiangyun disappeared in a blink of an eye, I came to look for it, and sure enough, it was you."
Jing Xi immediately looked at Xiangyun: "Xiangyun! Didn't I tell you before, when you come out, you have to say hello to the adults in the family, and tell you who you went with and where. ”
The last time Xiangyun was taken away, she still felt scared when she thought about it now.
Xiangyun pouted: "I'm sorry, Mother, I forgot this time." Guaranteed not to forget next time. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, I know it's your mother, it's okay." Mrs. Sheng smiled happily and beckoned to Jing Xi again, "Come on, come on, I have something to say to you." ”
And they went into the hall.
Mrs. Sheng was still smiling happily.
The smile on her face even infected Jing Xi: "Why is grandma so happy, is there any happy event?" ”
"yes!" Mrs. Sheng patted her leg, "Don't you see that you have found a doctor Rong, Sheng Ting has been a bachelor all these years, and I am sad to death." ”
"Every time I said I wanted to show him, he said he didn't have time. Now, he can come home every three or five days, and I said I wanted to show him, and he said he didn't have time. ”
"But today, the prince sent two of them at once, and both of them are very good-looking, and their temperaments are also very soft. That is, the prince sent it to Sheng Ting, so he couldn't refuse, if I went to find it, I would definitely be asked to return the person immediately. ”
“………… Is grandma planning to let Sheng Ting accept both? ”
"That won't do! Let me tell you, there are many women in the family who will make trouble, and they will make the house restless, I think only one will do. Don't you see the third family, what has become of them? Does it still feel like home? ”
Jing Xi nodded: "Although I am not qualified to meddle in the affairs of Sheng Ting, I also think it is better to be monogamous." ”
"And grandma, I am also selfish, I hope that Sheng Ting is remarried wife must be able to tolerate Xiangyun, if not, I think Xiangyun is better to follow me."
Mrs. Sheng opened her mouth: "Then what's the matter, I definitely have to find a generous person to enter the door, and I will definitely not let her bully Xiangyun." It's just that now there's still a problem. ”
"What's the problem?"
Mrs. Sheng frowned: "These two girls are slaves, I don't know how to restore their status as good citizens, but didn't you go to the yamen to learn a lot about running a female household before, I think you can take me to inquire when the time comes." ”
"That's fine."
"Well, then I'll go back. Sheng Ting is recuperating from his injuries now, and I personally stew soup for him, and I don't feel at ease when others do it. ”
Jing Xi said that she planned to send the child to study again, and Mrs. Sheng naturally agreed.
After sending Mrs. Sheng away, Jing Xi said a lot to Xiangyun.
Tell him that if he is bullied by someone else, whether at home or outside, he must come and tell her.
……
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Although Jing Xi did not deliberately inquire about the affairs of the Sheng family.
But you can always hear a few words from Xiangyun's mouth.
For example, Mrs. Sheng took two beautiful maids to weed and grow vegetables for cooking, and she often sweated in the sun, and asked them to take turns to take care of Sheng Ting.
And Sheng Ting only raised it at home for a month before returning to the barracks.
On this day, Jingxi rested and sorted out the letters in the house.
Straightening it out, she suddenly called Sixi in.
"Haven't you heard from Kyocaka lately?"
"No, I haven't had any letters lately."
"How so?" Jing Xi frowned.
It would have been fine if she hadn't replied last time, but she obviously wrote to ask Murong Yu about the return date.
How could he not reply?
He said that he was going back to celebrate the Lantern Festival, but the Lantern Festival has passed for a month, why hasn't he come back?
Jing Xi was worried that something had happened to him in the capital, so he immediately picked up his pen, wrote another letter, and sent the letter out urgently.
If it is expedited, her letter will be delivered to the capital in ten days at the earliest, even if he delays replying for a few days, and then expedited it back, a month is more than enough.
However, another month passed, and from the first month to the middle of March, he went for three months, and there was no news at all, except for the first two letters.
Jing Xi was a little anxious, because this was a situation that had never been seen before.
But she couldn't go directly to the capital to knock on the door of the Guogong Mansion, so she had to go to Xuanyin.
……
Since the completion of the Governor's Mansion, Xuanyin has spent most of his time in the Governor's Mansion of Hatojo.
simply transferred all the people who were used to the Qi Palace.
This time, Jingxi went to the Governor's Mansion, and it was her acquaintance Mingyue who received her.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Dr. Jing. Are you in a hurry to find the son? But Shizi is out these days, and I don't know when he will come back. ”
