Chapter 24 Tracking

"Girl, don't you hate your sister, her mother is likely to be the murderer of your mother." Su Dong asked.

Xia Shen paused, and said thoughtfully: "You see how she has half of the city, but it's a pity that she has a calculating mother, who thinks about everything for her, and is so spoiled, that she has developed an arrogant and domineering character." But most of what her mother fought for her was not what she was really willing to want. ”

Su Dong said lightly: "You can see it clearly." ”

Xia Shen said again: "She likes you, but Lou will not let her be with you, because Lou will only look at power and glory, regardless of others." My sister is also a poor person. ”

Suddenly, Su Dong stared at the person next to him, his eyes burning: "What about you, are you willing to be with me?" ”

Xia Shen was stunned, blinked his eyes and said, "Don't think that you can tease me by pulling my hand and kicking your nose in the face!" ”

Su Dong "..."What did you do wrong.

The teahouse was almost full, but only the most expensive position upstairs was still empty, so Xia Shen easily dragged Su Dong upstairs.

As soon as Su Dong sat down, he said, "It turns out that you also like this seat." ”

"Also?" Xia Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "Who else likes to sit here?" ”

Su Dong said: "My third brother often comes here to listen to books, and this seat is often sitting. ”

Xia Shen spread his hands: "There are so many rich people in Kyoto City!" ”

Today's storyteller tells the story of Mulan joining the army for her father, Mulan has practiced horseback riding since she was a child, and is meeting the emperor recruiting soldiers, and her father's name is on the roster, but her father is old and can't stand the fight on the battlefield, so Mulan decided to disguise herself as a man and go out for her father.

With the army against the Yellow River, over the Black Mountain, on horseback to fight for more than ten years. She was resourceful, brave and good at fighting, and repeatedly performed miraculous feats, but in the end she refused to be a high-ranking official and spent the second half of her life plainly.

Although Xia Shen knew a little about Mulan, he didn't know that her life was so thrilling and vigorous.

"I heard, you've been on the battlefield too? Is it really so spectacular? Xia looked meaningfully at the man beside him.

Su Dong's thoughts couldn't help but drift away, and said: "The listener feels spectacular, and he has experienced it himself, and he knows the ferocity on the battlefield, and watching his compatriots fall in front of him, the grief, anger, and helplessness are beyond words. ”

"So it's better to be peaceful and prosperous!" Summer is deep and has an endless aftertaste.

At this time, the teahouse has ended, and the moonlight tonight is exceptionally bright, and the two of them are walking slowly and leisurely, walking on the way back to Shangshufu.

"Do you want to have some new fun tomorrow, I'm almost tired of having fun." Xia Shen said leisurely.

Su Dongdao: "What do you want to play?" I'll be with you. ”

Xia Shen's face was incredible, and his eyes instantly lit up: "I thought you were going to say that I was playful, how many boudoir ladies don't go out of the door all day long, but I play all day long." ”

"Life in the world, just a few decades, you can do whatever you want, why do you need to follow the clouds." Su Dong said lightly.

Xia Shen was very excited when he heard this, tugging on Su Dong's sleeve and walking happily: "Great, how do you say that sentence, it is enough to have a confidant in life!" ”

Walking to the mouth of Shangshufu Hutong, Xia Shen saw a figure at the side door when he was far away, and his whereabouts were sneaky and very suspicious.

Su Dong reacted very quickly, and immediately took her arm and hid in a shadow, Xia Shen immediately got serious, couldn't help but hold his breath, and stared ahead.

I saw that this person looked left and right several times, and after making sure that there was no one around, he limped and jumped into the side door of Shangshu Mansion, which turned out to be a lame man.

Fortunately, Xia Shen's side was in the dark and was not noticed.

Xia Shen and Su Dong made eye contact for a moment, and then entered the side door lightly together, and quietly followed the man at the foot of the slope along the way, only to see that this person was really familiar with the terrain of Shangshu Mansion, and he was very fast with a limp, and he came to the gate of Qionghua Courtyard without a detour.

The two hid behind a bush of flowers, looked around with a limp, and only after making sure that there was no one did they flash into the Qionghua Courtyard.

"Don't go, don't startle the snake." Su Dong dragged Xia Shen and said with a straight face.

Xia Shen nodded and said, "Hmm! However, he sneakily didn't go through the main door, there must be a problem, I will go back and let Sister Ning check this person. ”

"Don't move!" Su **ran stared at Xia Shen with a serious face, and was so shocked that Xia Shen's pupils dilated instantly, and he really didn't dare to move without knowing what was going on, leaving only a pair of big eyes that were spinning and glowing silver in the moonlight.

Instead, Su Dong sneered and laughed, and took a petal from Xia Shen's bun with his sleeves: "I see that you have a petal on your head, help you take it down." ”

Xia Shen realized that he had been tricked, and swept over but was dodged by Su Dong, and immediately puffed up, lowered his voice and said, "Su Dong, stop for the old lady." ”

On the second day, Xia Shen still had the leisure to have fun, so he asked Jiang Conning to investigate what the lame man had to do with Qionghua Courtyard early in the morning, and he nested in the courtyard to read books as usual.

When I was bored, a maid in the front hall came in and announced: "Miss, my lord, please go to the front hall for lunch!" ”

Xia Shen looked at the book and snorted softly: "Hmm." Then he flipped the page and looked at it seriously.

After a long time, Nuan'er saw that Xia Shen didn't move, and urged: "Miss, go quickly!" The lord called you. ”

Xia Shen replied reluctantly, got up lazily and said, "Got it!" ”

When passing by the backyard, Xia Shen saw a pair of mother and son not far away, although the woman was dressed in ordinary clothes, it was difficult to hide her beauty, and the little boy on the side was about six or seven years old, dressed brightly, which was very strange.

I saw the woman squatting beside the boy, caressing his delicate face, full of pity, and her face was full of worry, as if she had a chance to talk to the little boy secretly.

"An'er, my mother misses you so much, are you doing well, have you kicked the quilt at night?"

Although Lin An is young, he is well-behaved and sensible.

"Mother, I miss you too, although my mother doesn't love An'er as much as my mother, An'er is very strong, and Sister Ya is very good to An'er!"

The woman hugged Lin An, buried her face in Lin An's small body, and cried: "An'er, do you know, the more sensible you are, the more uncomfortable your mother feels..."

Xia Shen looked at this scene, and probably guessed one or two in his heart, it seems that the situation in this mansion is calm, but everyone is a victim of this feudal society, and it is natural that the children of the concubine are raised by the main room.

"Nuan'er, who are they?" Xia Shen asked softly.

"Miss, this is Aunt Shen, the only son of the master next to her, the little young master in our house!" Nuan'er replied.

Xia Shen said again: "Listening to their words, the little young master was born to Aunt Shen, and was raised by the old witch?" ”

Nuan Er said: "Exactly, the little young master was also recently released to the eldest lady's side. ”

It seems that this old witch thinks very well, she doesn't want the child when it is difficult to feed, she is afraid that she will complain if she can't raise it well, and when the mother of the family raises the child strongly, the feelings are deep, but she snatches love with a knife and gets a well-behaved son in vain.

Xia Shen approached and called, "Aunt Shen!" ”

I saw Aunt Shen stand up and turn her back, wipe her tears, and then turn around and said calmly: "Miss, please don't tell the eldest lady what happened just now, otherwise the eldest lady will punish me!" Instead, he lowered his head and glanced at Lin An with self-reproach: "The most important thing is that she will also punish An'er!" ”

"How can you be sure that I won't tell my mother?" Xia Shen smiled and touched Lin An's little head, these two girls are really a little similar.

Aunt Shen was calm and calm, and said word by word: "Because we are both victims, we hate that woman equally." ”

Xia Shen couldn't help but admire in his heart after hearing this, and said: "I like to talk to people like you who are happy, don't worry, I didn't see anything today!" With that, he left.
