The cold wind blew through, and only the sound of falling leaves and the sound of slow narration were heard.

When the speech stopped, the smile on Jing Mingzhu's face had disappeared.

"That's all I have to say."

Ji Yu looked at her directly, her eyes were open.

"You ......" Jing Mingzhu opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.

Her eyes stared straight at Ji Yu's hairstyle, and she couldn't imagine that Ji Yu was actually ......

After a while, he held back a sentence: "Why are you lying to me?" ”

Ji Yu looked sideways at the dead branches not far away.

"I don't mean to lie to you, I don't mean to fool anyone, it's just my situation...... You might be able to guess a little. Anyway, I have a reason to do it. ”

"The Hou Mansion forced you to do this?"

"Not exactly, if I don't want to, no one will force me."

So in the final analysis, it was the Hou Fu's proposal that hit her heart, or did the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for her, so she pushed the boat down?

Jing Mingzhu's mood was a little chaotic.

"I don't understand ......"

The other party is Jing Mingzhu, Ji Yu thought about it and said a few more words.

"I don't want to be controlled by others and wait for the price to sell."

Jing Mingzhu became more and more unable to figure it out.

"Since you don't want to wait for the price and sell, wouldn't it be better to be married?"

In that case, even if the Marquis of Hanchang wants to marry her, it will not be easy to marry her for the second time.

Ji Yu lowered her eyes and raised her eyes again.

"Something happened while I was in Kanboku, and I had to listen to them...... Besides, even if I return to Beijing as married, the Hou Mansion can still find a home for me, but the conditions are worse, but I always have no worries about sales, after all, there are many people who want to climb the Hou Mansion, and those people will not care if I have short arms and legs, or how many times I have been married. ”

It is not uncommon in Beijing to marry a second daughter from a noble girl, which Jing Mingzhu admits.

But wouldn't it be worse to come back unmarried?

In addition, she is not from the Marquis of Hanchang's Mansion, and she has known Ji Yu for so long, why did Ji Yu hide it from her?

Ji Yu directly skimmed the previous question and answered the second one.

"When you and I met, I was in that state, you and I didn't know each other well at that time, so it was impossible for me to talk deeply, and you didn't ask me."

Jing Mingzhu was speechless for a while.

"Then now, why are you willing to tell me again?"

Ji Yu was silent for a moment and said, "There are two reasons. First, you are the only friend I have made since I entered Beijing; Second, I don't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. ”

Who this unnecessary misunderstanding refers to, the two know it.

"If you tell me now, don't be afraid to say ......"

Jing Mingzhu suddenly paused, and looked at Ji Yu with incredible eyes.

"Are you crazy?"

She finally knew Ji Yu's plan - how could Ji Yu be afraid of people knowing? She wishes everyone in the capital would know, right?

Ji Yu smiled briefly: "The self-protection method of the little people." ”

She also wanted to get out of the predicament perfectly, but the reality did not allow it, so she had to use the method of killing 1,000 enemies and self-inflicting 800, anyway, the things lost were of little value to her.

Jing Mingzhu, who has been raised by a deep boudoir since childhood, doesn't think so, in her opinion, Ji Yu is crazy.

If this matter is really publicized, no one will care who really makes the decision, and the final infamy will all fall on Ji Yu's head. At that time, the Hou Mansion will just lose some face, but Ji Yu will ruin the second half of her life.

"Are you trying to confess to me, or are you trying to borrow my mouth?"

"You can think whatever you want."

In fact, now is not the best time to uncover, because it is not yet the time to be most lethal.

But if you cover it up any longer, not only will you have the sincerity of the negative Jingzhu, but I am afraid that you will drag another person into the pit.

That's it, that's all.

"Ji Yu, you ...... It's ......."

Jing Mingzhu looked at her with a mistake, her eyes full of disappointment.

"I'm sorry, but it's the truth." Ji Yu stood up, "It doesn't matter what you do, thank you for your hospitality these days." ”

Before she stabbed the paper, she had already anticipated Jing Mingzhu's possible reaction.

Disappointment, chills, or even break-up......

Either way, she accepts it.

It's not a good thing to get close to her anyway.

At the corner of the verandah stood two men.

It wasn't until she watched Ji Yu walk away that Mama Zhuang spoke.

"The ...... Did you quarrel with Miss Mingzhu? Hum! I don't know how thick the sky is in the house, and I still come out like this. Miss Mingzhu was also deceived before, but this time she finally recognized her true colors, and she should ignore her in the future, to see who else is willing to befriend her. ”

The more Mama Zhuang spoke, the happier she became, and the folds on her face turned into flowers.

Wei Jiayan didn't show the slightest sign of showing her face, on the contrary, her face was even more ugly than in the flower hall just now.

"Mama, I just saw ......"

"What did Miss see?"

They stood here for a while, and Mama Zhuang only saw Ji Yu and Jing Mingzhu sitting and talking in the flower garden, during which Jing Mingzhu left for a while, and came back in less than a moment.

And then there is Mama Yao, there is nothing else, after all, it is a little far away, and her eyes are not good.

Wei Jiayan shook her head unconsciously, but her nails scratched a mark on the lacquer pillar.

The voice was a little harsh, and it woke her up all at once.

"Mama, where are those two children working?"

"The old slave asked the grandmother-in-law in the back kitchen to help inquire when she went out to buy, and she has already inquired, what is the matter with the young lady looking for them?"

Wei Jiayan did not answer her words.

"You can find a way, contact that Xiaoqu, I want to see her."

Mama Zhuang hesitated: "Then do you want to ...... the one named Xiaozhou together?"

Wei Jiayan denied it without thinking.

"People who don't have weaknesses are looking for them in vain, but they are startling the snake."

Could it be that what is the big effect of Xiaoqu? Mama Zhuang suppressed the doubts in her heart and didn't ask any more.

"Okay, the old slave will arrange it when he goes back."

Wei Jiayan reminded: "Acting in secret, with multiple embankments, you can't use the people in our courtyard, let alone be noticed by other people in the mansion." ”

On the night Ji Yu entered the mansion, the housekeeper Wei sent her a new rue incense, and Mama Zhuang heard that there were fewer people in the convoy coming back from Guanbei, and Wei Jiayan guessed that things were not so simple, and there must be some ulterior secrets.

But at that time, she was only suspicious, and did not dare to investigate anything, because she knew very well that since the captain had already delivered the warning, her every move was in the eyes of others.

Coupled with Ji Yu's various performances after that, she felt that she was not afraid, and she was even less interested in knowing about the things that were hidden.

But now, Ji Yu has revealed her true colors.

Even if you step on her everywhere, you can still ......

Wei Jiayan is annoyed by her self-righteousness and stupidity, but she will not sit idly by.

Something has to be done, to pay back......

Jing Mingzhu sent the guest back, because he dropped something, he went back to Miaoyuan, and before he entered the flower hall, he heard that the second son was inside.

Jing Mingshu heard the footsteps, turned around in a hurry, and feigned a cough.

"I heard that you got two excellent works today, and I came here to see them."

Jing Mingzhu was silent for a moment and asked, "Second brother, which of these two paintings do you think is better?" ”

Jing Mingchou saw that his sister seemed to have something on his mind, but he also had something on his mind, so he didn't ask too much.

"This autumn scene picture, sophisticated, quite meaningful, this elegant collection picture is not far behind, as for which one is better......"

He didn't say any more, but his eyes were fixed on the map of Miaoyuan Yaji for a long time.

In addition to appreciation, there are also some imperceptible regrets.

It's a pity that someone is missing from the painting.

"I just don't know what the second brother likes, is it the painting itself, or the person who paints it?"
