Mu Jinghong was like a nobody, ate the last bite of food, got up and patted his ass and left, but before leaving, he left a word.

"Eyes, I have already discussed this matter with Brother Qiannan, you go to the courtyard to find him, there will be a surprise."

Surprise? He Mu Jinghong will have a surprise for her, and it is not bad if he is not frightened.

Ling Jiantong had an uneasy heart, and unconsciously walked to the courtyard, she stopped at the verandah, and when her eyes glanced inside, she saw Situ Qiannan standing in front of a bonsai, holding the scissors in her hand, "clicking" to prune the branches and leaves.

This voice was too regular and too magical, and it reached Ling Jiantong's ears, as if the black and white impermanence of life had jumped over with a chain.

But this level has to be broken sooner or later, early and late, anyway, the result is the same.

Ling Jiantong lifted his breath, lowered his head and walked straight in front of Situ Qiannan: "Brother Qiannan, I heard that you are looking for me, but is there anything wrong?" ”

Situ Qiannan looked back and saw that it was Ling Jiantong, a touch of warmth rose at the corner of his mouth, and then put down the scissors in his hand, and asked Ling Jiantong to sit down in the pavilion in the courtyard, before he said: "I just wanted to go to you, but I didn't expect Miss Ling to come by herself." ”

Because of the fact that before, Ling Jiantong ate Situ Qiannan's love pigeon, so every time he faced this sick man, Ling Jiantong felt that he couldn't straighten his waist, and he always felt that he was a big dwarf.

"Brother Qiannan, what the hell is the matter with you?"

Situ Qiannan poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Ling Jiantong, Ling Jiantong happened to be nervous and had a dry mouth, this cup of tea is not bad for quenching thirst......

"Actually, there's nothing to do, it's just that it will be Qianchen's birthday in ten days, so I want to put the power of this year's birthday in the hands of Miss Ling......"

"Poof!" The tea that had not yet been swallowed, as soon as he heard Situ Qiannan's words, immediately spurted out.

Surprise, sure enough, surprise, what a surprise......

Situ Qiannan obviously didn't expect Ling Jiantong to have such a big reaction, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Miss Ling, you are ......?"

Ling Jiantong felt rude, wiped the remaining water stains from the corners of her mouth with one hand, and waved her hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm just too excited, Brother Qiannan, how did you think of handing over such an important matter to me?" I've never hosted such a big banquet after all, I'm afraid ......"

Situ Qiannan carefully took the handkerchief, carefully wiped the wet corners of Ling Jiantong's clothes, and said gently: "Actually, this matter is still Jinghong, please ask me, he said that Miss Ling, you are very eccentric, you can often come up with some unusual ideas, the usual birthday banquet is too boring, he wants to give Qianchen some surprises." ”

Wow, it's true love.

If it weren't for Mu Jinghong's habit of visiting the Qinglou, Ling Jiantong would probably really mistakenly think that Situ Qianchen and him were the real pair.

"Miss Ling, this matter is entrusted to you, all the servants in the house are at your disposal." Situ Qiannan put the handkerchief aside, and looked at Ling Jiantong with a calm face, which made Ling Jiantong a little flattered: "Brother Qiannan, you can rest assured, General Situ's birthday banquet, I will definitely hold a sound and impressive banquet, and you are satisfied." ”

If it weren't for the ancient times, Ling Jiantong would probably stand up and salute Situ Qiannan to show his loyalty.

Seeing Ling Jiantong so formal, Situ Qiannan couldn't help but smile: "Miss Ling, you are the benefactor of our Situ family, I think no matter what you do with the banquet, the second brother will be very happy." ”

Ling Jiantong was stunned, what does this sentence mean? Could it be that Situ Qianchen already has a good impression of himself?

With Situ Qiannan's encouragement, Ling Jiantong has been like a chicken blood in the past few days, taking his subordinates to the market to buy things during the day, and writing and drawing on paper at night, planning something.

On this day, Ling Jiantong took a few maids to the market as usual to buy some gifts for the guests, but he didn't expect that the road was narrow, and he actually met Ling Lin.

Ling Jiantong couldn't help but sigh, this world is really too small, and you can meet this unappetizing nasty ghost wherever you go.

Originally, he wanted to pass by her without squinting, but this Ling Lin just wanted to provoke Ling Jiantong.

"Ouch, isn't this the sister who was swept away? Why, do you come out today to breathe and go shopping? Ling Lin played with a fan with a painting of Chang'e running to the moon, and sarcastically said with each other.

Ling Jian's pupils turned white, and immediately walked in front of Ling Lin with a smile: "It turned out to be my sister, what a coincidence, you can meet it when you go shopping, look at the clothes on my sister's body are still old from a month ago, how can you come to the street to find some bargains and go back?" ”

Ling Lin's face darkened, thinking that it had been a long time since he had bought clothes and jewelry, since the last time Ling Jiantong left home, the Huang family had been arguing with Ling Peng because of the problem of the concubine, so the two of them ignored each other, and no one looked at anyone pleasing to the eye, Ling Peng simply turned his eyes out of mind and moved out directly to live with the concubine, without Ling Peng, the Ling Mansion of Nuoda suddenly lost its financial resources, and now the Huang family and Ling Lin are living a poor life, not to mention how poor they are.

Ling Lin subconsciously moved the cuff of his shirt with a fan, but he didn't happen to be seen by Ling Jiantong.

Ling Jiantong chuckled, stretched out his hand and pulled away the ugly fan, with a look of surprise on his face: "Oops, why is there a hole in my sister's clothes?" It stands to reason that after my eldest lady leaves, Ling Mansion will be your daughter, what's the matter, is my father not good to you? Or are you forced to marry the son of some household and ritual family, in order to get more bride money, so you pretend to be so poor? ”

Ling Lin's face became more and more ugly, she glanced at the smug Ling Jian pupil fiercely, stretched out her hand to wave away her "kindness", and was just about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, a cold and arrogant voice suddenly came from behind her: "It turns out that the eldest lady of the Ling family bullied people like this in the past?" ”

Ling Jiantong turned around and looked at the woman standing behind her at some point, she was tall and tall, her temperament was outstanding, and the coldness and arrogance on her face were like a bodhisattva enshrined in the temple, which easily gave people a feeling of alienation, but looking at her dress, she should also be the daughter of which family.

As soon as Ling Lin saw the woman, it was like seeing a savior, she hurriedly walked to the woman's side, reached out and grabbed her sleeve, and called aggrievedly like a kitten: "Chuyue." ”

Ling Jiantong looked at the woman in front of her, and there didn't seem to be the slightest memory of her in her memory.

"Who are you?" Ling Jiantong asked simply and clearly.

The woman raised her chin slightly, stared at Ling Jiantong and said, "Fengguo Mansion General's daughter, Gong Chuyue." ”

Hey, if I'm not mistaken, the general of Fengguofu seems to be surnamed Yun, how did she get to the palace surname?

Could it be that the mother's surname is also used here?

Just when Ling Jiantong was wondering, Gong Chuyue had already walked in front of her, and reached out and took away the fan that was originally Ling Lin.

The sudden failure of his fingertips made Ling Jiantong feel that this Gong Chuyue might not be so easy to deal with.

"A few days ago, Miss Ling's murder of her husband was rumored in the capital, although Chu Yue was in the deep boudoir, she had also heard about it, and she didn't believe it in her heart, Miss Ling was so weak and dignified, how could she do such a thing? But when she saw it today, Chu Yue's heart couldn't help but change her opinion of Miss Ling. ”

When the scars of the past were exposed on the street, Gong Chuyue's move not only relieved Ling Lin's hatred, but also successfully suppressed the other party's arrogance, which was indeed high.

But she didn't calculate, Ling Jiantong, who was standing in front of her, was soft and hard, and her thick skin was comparable to the city wall, so she didn't get angry but laughed: "I don't know how Miss Gong has changed about me?" ”

Gong Chuyue's eyes were full of contempt: "Bullying the weak and domineering, you really deserve to be driven out of the Ling Mansion by Master Ling." ”

The words are delicate and aggressive.

If it weren't for Prime Minister Ling Jiantong's stomach to support the boat, she would probably have rolled up her sleeves and fought with this invincible Gong Chuyue.

It's really not groundless that people are looking for whom, and the truth that things gather like people and people are grouped.

Ling Jiantong took a deep breath and slowly digested the harsh words just now, she didn't know much about this Gong Chuyue, even if she fought back, she wouldn't be able to find a place to stay at all.

Ling Lin, who was hiding behind Gong Chuyue, saw that Ling Jiantong's pupils were full of depression and had nowhere to vent, and her heart was secretly happy.

"Miss Ling, everyone living in the world must find their own position of existence, just like now, I heard that you stayed in the Zhenguo Mansion as a maid, this status cannot be compared with before, when you see a young lady from another family, you have to salute, if you don't, it doesn't matter, Bi'er, you come to teach her."

Bi'er was the maid beside Gong Chuyue, she glanced at Ling Jiantong, and said coldly, "Study hard." Then, she saluted in front of Ling Lin and Gong Chuyue in a squatting position and said in a loud voice: "I've seen Miss Gong, Miss Ling." ”

Gong Chuyue nodded slightly, and then her gaze moved to Ling Jiantong, who was full of forbearance: "Miss Ling, let's learn and sell now." ”

There were more and more onlookers around, and Ling Jiantong was now like a monkey being played on the street, with no face.

Is this the rhythm that is going to force her to do it?

The five fingers under Ling Jiantong's sleeves were clenched, and when he was about to resist making a move, he only heard the sound of a horse, and a long figure came to Ling Jiantong's side.

"Miss Gong, are you insulting the people in my house on the street like this?" The cold voice echoed in Ling Jiantong's ears, and her eyes widened in disbelief, and her gaze moved up, landing on the cold side face.

Situ Qianchen, when did he come?

When Gong Chuyue saw Situ Qianchen, her originally cold and arrogant expression suddenly retreated by half, but she still pretended to be strong, and said unwillingly: "She insulted Ling Lin on the street just now, shouldn't she be punished?" ”

Situ Qianchen's cold eyes fell slightly on Ling Lin's body, his gaze was as cold as a knife, making Ling Lin look down and didn't dare to look directly.

"Miss Ling, is this the case?"
