Chapter 207: The Truth (1)
Xia Zhihan returned to the house, still very angry, thinking about it left and right, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and thought of a good way.
At night, Liu Shihan was waiting for Dongzhu to finish bathing, sitting on the couch to dry her hair, Dongzhu took a white silk cloth to wipe her hair, Liu Shihan took it and said, "You go outside and guard, I'll come by myself." ”
Fuyutake nodded and walked out.
Liu Shihan looked at the night outside the window, slowly wiped her hair, and suddenly, the candles in the room went out, Liu Shihan was about to shout, and saw a small lantern lit in the garden at some point, and the stars in the sky reflected the orange lanterns, which looked chic and extraordinary, Liu Shihan was stunned, and even forgot to shout.
At this moment, a cyan figure suddenly appeared in the garden, Liu Shihan suddenly saw it, and his eyes moistened, this person was Xia Zhihan.
And his clothes were the same clothes he wore when they first met that day.
Xia Zhihan walked in slowly, every step he took, two candles were magically lit up around him, and gradually, Xia Zhihan walked into the house, at this moment, the room was already full of candlelight.
"Han'er......" Xia Zhihan looked at Liu Shihan and called her gently.
Liu Shihan shook her eyelashes slightly, and a line of tears flowed out, she hurriedly turned her face away and reached out to wipe away the tears. After a while, he cleared his throat and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
Xia Zhihan stretched out his hand and spread out his palm, and in the palm of his hand was a plain silver and white magnolia hairpin, which was the hairpin left to him by Liu Shihan that day.
Liu Shihan was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, when he heard Xia Zhihan say: "Han'er, I have always worn this hairpin, and I have never forgotten the friendship between you and me." ”
Liu Shihan finally couldn't help it, and cried lowly, "It's not that you don't want to have a woman, but why do you want to find a concubine when we get married a few days ago......"
Xia Zhihan stretched out his hand and took her in his arms, and coaxed softly: "Never again, she lives in that house, and I have never been to see her." ”
Liu Shihan whimpered, sobbing softly in Xia Zhihan's arms, the moonlight outside the window was beautiful, reflecting the two people embracing each other in the room, looking silent and cold.
In the Bamboo Branch Garden, Xia Mengning was sitting in front of the carved prism, and Jiu'er behind her was combing her hair, Xia Mengning said: "There has been no movement in the mansion these days, right?" ”
Jiu'er nodded, "It's very quiet everywhere in the house, but a few days ago, when the slave maid went to the kitchen, she saw the eldest young grandmother. ”
Xia Mengning didn't speak, but her expression was faint, Jiu'er paused for a while, looked at Xia Mengning's expression and didn't look unusual, and then said: "The eldest young grandmother is making snacks in the kitchen, it seems that she has reconciled with the eldest young master." ”
Wu Qing, who was stuffing snacks into his mouth on the side, hurriedly interjected: "Don't say it, this Xia Zhihan is quite handy, I saw it that night, it was a candle and a hairpin, and it was not good to move Miss Liu, hey, woman, her heart is too soft, I forgot how people treated her before......"
Jiu'er glared at her, took a lotus leaf cake and stuffed it into her mouth, "Eat your snacks and talk less." ”
Wu Qing stared at the big eyes and didn't know what he had done wrong, Jiu'er hinted with his eyes, Wu Qing saw that Xia Mengning's face was a little bad, and hurriedly took a snack plate and stood up and said, "That, I'll go and see Zhulian ......"
Xia Mengning didn't say a word, Jiu'er combed her hair in a bun, and said, "Miss, are you worried about the young grandmother?" ”
Xia Mengning nodded, took a pair of white marble pendants from the jewelry box and put them on her ears, turned around and said, "Han'er is simple-minded, and she doesn't know Xia Zhihan's scheming and viciousness at all. ”
Jiu'er remembered the last time she was poisoned, and said, "Miss, it's better for us to talk to the eldest young grandmother." ”
Xia Mengning shook her head, "Never, you also saw it last time, Han'er can't stand the double blow, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that her body will collapse early." ”
Jiu'er nodded and said worriedly: "The slave maid heard from the porter a few days ago that the eldest young master used to go out in a carriage, as if he had gone to the land of fireworks. ”
Xia Mengning chuckled, "It's not uncommon for a scum like Xia Zhihan to go to that place. ”
At this moment, Zhu Lian outside the door said, "Miss, breakfast is ready, you can come out and use a little." ”
Xia Mengning stood up and walked out with Jiu'er, just sat down at the dinner table, when she heard a sound of footsteps walking in, Xia Mengning looked up, and saw Liu Shihan, who was wearing a scarlet dress, walking in with Dong Zhu.
"Why are you here? Did you have breakfast? ”
Xia Mengning greeted Liu Shihan with a smile, stood up and greeted her.
Liu Shihan sat aside, looked at Xia Mengning and said with a smile: "I have used it a long time ago, and I wanted to come here before you had breakfast, but I really caught up." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and gave Dong Zhu a look, Dong Zhu stepped forward, put the dark red food box in his hand on the table, and brought out a plate of snacks from it.
Liu Shihan smiled: "I didn't add mugwort leaves this time, you can taste it." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Xia Mengning with great anticipation.
Xia Mengning frowned, almost from the time Liu Shihan brought out the dim snack, she smelled the unusual smell of this dim sum, if she didn't smell it wrong, it should have been added to the broken intestine grass.
It's a good summer, and it's really unscrupulous.
Seeing that Xia Mengning frowned and refused to make a move, Liu Shihan's original smile gradually disappeared, and he looked at Xia Mengning and said, "Are you unwilling to eat the snacks I made?" ”
Xia Mengning didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Han'er, you tell me the truth, why do you want to send snacks to me again and again?" ”
Liu Shihan was stunned for a moment, knowing that Xia Mengning was smart, so she didn't cover it up much, and said: "Ning'er, I know you are smart, yes, this is what my husband asked me to send, but don't think about it, my husband did this just to make the relationship between you and me better." ”
Xia Mengning looked at Liu Shihan, who was already obsessed, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head, "Han'er, your understanding of Xia Zhihan is too shallow, don't you know the saying that you know people, faces, and hearts?" ”
Liu Shihan looked at Xia Mengning, and was about to say something, when she saw Xia Mengning's expression, she took out a square cloth from her sleeve, and took out the silver needle inside to show Liu Shihan, "Do you know what this is?" ”
Liu Shihan was stunned for a moment, "The silver needle you use for acupuncture." ”
Xia Mengning nodded, stabbed the silver needle into one of the pastries, paused for a while and then pulled it out, and the silver needle slowly turned black in front of everyone.
Liu Shihan exclaimed, "Impossible, I made this snack myself, Ning'er, you have to believe me......"
Xia Mengning stretched out her hand and pressed Liu Shihan's arm, looked at her and said, "I believe in you, but I don't believe in Xia Zhihan." ”
Saying that, Xia Mengning put the silver needle on the table and said, "Han'er, you can't be used by Xia Zhihan like this anymore, he married you just to use your relationship with me to get revenge on me, I didn't eat the last dim sum because it was poisonous, I didn't want to tell you about it, because I took care of your body, but now I can't stand you and you are still in the dark by Xia Zhihan." ”
Liu Shihan's tears flowed out all of a sudden, but how could she believe it, Liu Shihan shook her head, stood up and said: "Ning'er, what is the matter here, I will definitely find out, now there is no evidence, I will not believe anyone." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and hurried out of the bamboo branch garden.
Xia Mengning looked at Liu Shihan's back, sighed and said to herself: "I don't know if it's right for me to do this, if Han'er falls ill again......"
Jiu'er stood aside, handed over the eight-treasure lotus seed porridge to Xia Mengning, and comforted: "Miss, don't worry, the young grandmother will survive, if the young lady doesn't tell her, I'm afraid that if the young grandmother knows about it in the future, she will be even more sad." ”
Xia Mengning nodded, pushed the bowl and said, "Forget it, I don't want to eat it, let's withdraw." ”
Jiu'er still wanted to persuade a few words, but seeing that Xia Mengning had already drunk tea, she stood up and walked to the back room, and when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed them back, and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks with her hands and feet.
Xia Mengning sat on the couch, holding a square pillow and looking at the scenery outside the window boringly, there was a familiar fragrance behind her, Xia Mengning turned her head, and saw Changsun Yun standing behind her.
"What, in a bad mood?" Eldest Sun Yun sat aside and asked with a smile.
Xia Mengning shook her head, not wanting to tell him these things, turned around, Xia Mengning supported her chin with her hand and said, "Why are you here?" Have you been busy in the court lately? ”
Eldest Sun Yun poured himself a cup of tea and said, "You don't know, my position as a prince is an empty head, and Uncle Huang knows that I don't like government affairs, so naturally he won't add too many things to me." ”
Xia Mengning looked at Changsun Yun's face, suddenly squinted his eyes and laughed, Changsun Yun was a little embarrassed, reached out and touched his face, "What, is there anything on my face?" ”
Xia Mengning shook her head with a smile, revealing a neat row of teeth, "No, everyone has a love for beauty, I just think you look good, and you never get tired of looking at it." ”
As soon as Eldest Sun Yun heard this, his cheeks turned red, Xia Mengning smiled, and reached out to poke the bridge of his nose, "A big man is even more handsome than a woman, no wonder there are so many peach blossoms around him that he can't hide from it." ”
Eldest Sun Yun stretched out his hand to hold Xia Mengning's outstretched fingers, and said, "Ning'er, don't worry, you are the only one in your husband's life." ”
Xia Mengning smiled, as if she suddenly remembered something, took out a purse from the cabinet on the couch, handed it over, and said, "For you." ”
The eldest grandson Yun took it, and saw that the purse was embroidered with colorful auspicious clouds, with fine stitches, which showed that the embroidery was very good, and couldn't help but rejoice: "It looks good." ”
Xia Mengning smiled and said: "The weather is hot in the blink of an eye, you will inevitably get dizzy when you always run back and forth outside, I have filled you with sun-dried mint grass inside, and you can bring it with you to refresh your mind." ”
Saying that, Xia Mengning said again: "By the way, the purses I gave you before are old, if you give them to me, I will help you sew them again." ”
Eldest Sun Yun's face was a little embarrassed, and he said, "That...... That ......"
Xia Mengning was puzzled, but even if she figured it out, she pouted and said, "I forgot, how can the prince carry such an ordinary purse on his body?" ”
As he spoke, he glared at Changsun Yun with some anger.
Changsun Yun hurriedly waved his hand, took out a few purses from his arms and put them on the table, Xia Mengning was stunned, seeing that it was the ones he gave to Changsun Yun, Xia Mengning was puzzled: "Why don't you wear ......?"
Eldest Sun Yun was a little embarrassed, "I am reluctant to wear the things you gave me, for fear that it will be abrupt......"
Xia Mengning sneered, stretched out her hand and pulled the purse, and said, "If you don't wear it, you won't wear it, I'll take it back......"
Before he finished speaking, he was violently pressed by Changsun Yun's hand, Xia Mengning raised his head, and saw that Changsun Yun looked at him with some grievances, "Ning'er, why do you always pretend not to understand my mind, I am reluctant to wear it, I am afraid of the wind and sun, if it is worn old, it will not waste your mind." ”
Xia Mengning smiled, pulled the purse to herself, picked it up and looked at it carefully: "I'll see where the stitches are not good, and then I'll make up for you." ”
Eldest Sun Yun smiled, then let go of his hand, and said: "The last tea tasting party was unpleasant, and the princess seems to be going to do it again, so I just came to tell you." ”
Xia Mengning seemed to be accustomed to it, "I know, it's warm everywhere in this spring, and it's okay to go out and walk around." ”
