Chapter 288: Throw down the river and wash your face
It was Xia Mengru who was dressed up and running to this pavilion, wearing a lake blue dress, which was sent by the steward's room yesterday, Xia Mengru wore exaggerated makeup and rushed towards the pavilion like a clown.
Xia Mengning pretended to be surprised, "Jiu'er, who's outside?" ”
Jiu'er lifted the curtain and took a look, covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Slave maid...... Slaves and maids don't know ...... either."
Seeing Jiu'er's surprised look, several people poked their heads out to look, Jiu'er stretched out his hand and rolled up the curtain, and the three people in the pavilion all saw the woman who came towards the pavilion, wasn't it who Xia Mengru was.
Xia Mengrong saw Xia Mengru's exaggerated makeup and costumes, and her heart was almost laughed to death, this Xia Mengru is really a pig brain, so she is worthy of coming to the world in front of the prince, let's make jokes of herself.
Xia Mengru ran over, a thin layer of sweat soaked in her face, she reached out and wiped it indifferently, and a piece of powder was wiped off her forehead, Changsun Yun couldn't help laughing, bent her lips slightly, and forced a smile without making a sound.
Several girls also covered their mouths and laughed, but Xia Mengru didn't notice it, and at this moment she only had the eldest grandson Yun in her eyes.
"Little girl Xia Mengru, I've seen the prince!"
Xia Mengru bent her knees and saluted awkwardly, in fact, she didn't have too many courtesies, but she was just hindered by being in front of the prince, so she couldn't not salute.
Eldest Sun Yun held back a smile and was about to breathe, and hurriedly spoke at this time, "Get up." ”
took advantage of the free time to speak, and hid the embarrassment.
Xia Mengru straightened up and looked at the white-clothed eldest grandson Yun sitting in the pavilion, with a warm smile on his face that almost broke his eyes, Xia Mengru smiled stupidly, "Lord Shizi, can the little girl sit next to you?" ”
The eldest grandson Yun was silent, and the other two didn't speak, Xia Mengru looked at Xia Mengning on the side, frowned, and said righteously: "Third sister, didn't you see that the prince wanted to talk to me alone, why didn't you leave?" ”
Xia Mengning was used to Xia Mengru's wild words last time, and Xia Mengning was not angry at this moment, but smiled faintly and threw his eyes at Changsun Yun.
The eldest grandson Yun smiled lightly and said, "No." ”
The smile on Xia Mengru's face disappeared all of a sudden, how could it be, how could the prince refuse himself, Xia Mengru looked at Xia Mengning on the side, and secretly said in her heart that it must be Xia Mengning's ghost.
Looking at Xia Mengrong next to her, Xia Mengru was jealous, why could Xia Mengrong go there and sit, but not herself.
The more Xia Mengru thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, so she simply ignored it and was about to go inside, but several guards under Changsun Yun stepped forward and grabbed her, preventing her from taking a step forward.
Xia Mengru struggled vigorously and said loudly: "Lord Shizi, why can the seventh sister go in, I can't ......"
Eldest Sun Yun stood up, walked to the curtain and stood, and said with a smile: "Do you want to come in and sit?" ”
The man's handsome and peerless face was smiling slightly, dressed in white and shengxue, like a god who had strayed into the mortal world, this bearing fascinated Xia Mengru so much that he couldn't even speak.
"Yes...... Of course I want to ......."
Eldest Sun Yun smiled softly, but said in the next sentence: "That's good, I can't see disgusting things in this world, you go down to the river first to wash your face and come up." ”
Xia Mengru was stunned for a moment and didn't react, but Changsun Yun said, "You guys, throw her into the river." ”
After rebuilding the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xia Mengning invited craftsmen to build a small river in the garden, the water of the small river was not deep, barely up to the waist of a person, Xia Mengru was thrown in, scared and shouted for help, this stood up, only to find that the water was only under his chest, and he had no tricks for a while, and he was about to climb to the shore.
Changsun Yun looked at it, snorted a few times, and said to Xia Mengning with a smile: "Let's continue to play chess." ”
Xia Mengning also smiled gently, sat on the chair and re-examined the chessboard.
Xia Mengrong sat on the side and was almost stupid, Changsun Yun was a gentle man like jade in her impression, why would she be so ruthless.
After a while, the eldest grandson Yuncai said, "Miss Seventh can embroider?" ”
Xia Mengrong was stunned for a moment, only then did she realize that Eldest Sun Yun was asking, and hurriedly nodded and stood up, "Little girl...... The little girl will be a little ......."
Xia Mengrong was obviously carefully dressed up today, and the hairpin she got in the morning was now on the top of her head, shining with an alluring luster.
The eldest grandson Yun smiled slightly, "It's okay, next month is the emperor's birthday, and this prince has prepared a pattern, ready to make embroidery as a birthday gift to the emperor, but at this time, I can't find a suitable person to embroider...... Why don't you ask Miss Seven? ”
"Huh?" Xia Mengrong was stunned for a moment, but her heart was ecstatic, oh my God, what does the prince mean, do you want to make embroidery for him by yourself, Xia Mengrong trembled slightly with excitement, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The little girl should do her best to complete the embroidery for the prince." ”
Eldest Sun Yun smiled, stretched out his hand and pulled Xia Mengrong, and said with a smile: "Then it's hard Miss Seven, and the prince will send someone to send it in a few days." ”
Xia Mengrong raised her head and saw the eldest grandson Yunzheng smiling gently, Xia Mengrong felt that she was about to be melted, melted into this warm smile.
After Changsun Yun finished speaking, he walked out of the pavilion, and when he came to the river, he squatted down and reached out to hold the chin of Xia Mengru, who had just climbed to the shore.
Xia Mengru was startled, but when she looked up and saw Changsun Yun, she suddenly laughed, and the river washed away the fat powder on her face, revealing a face that was not good-looking but much better than just now.
"The prince ......" Xia Mengru did not forget to throw a coquettish glance at the eldest grandson Yun.
Eldest Sun Yun smiled, and with a mocking flick of his hand, Xia Mengru's head was thrown over, "The face is washed, but this son is still not interested in you!" ”
After Changsun Yun finished speaking, he stood up and said, "My good mood was ruined by such a person, forget it, go home." ”
Xia Mengru was anxious, "Lord Shizi, it's not like this......"
Eldest Sun Yun was impatient, turned his head and said sharply: "Shut up!" The next time I come back, I don't want to see your face again! ”
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Xia Mengru alone in a daze, and after a while, Jinglan came over and dragged Xia Mengru ashore, Xia Mengru cried loudly as if she had just woken up from a dream.
"Woo, why does the prince say that about me...... Am I bad? ”
Jinglan saw Xia Mengru crying and crying, and couldn't help but say: "Sixth Miss is really confused, yesterday you and the third miss choked on the matter, the prince must know, who in the capital does not know that the prince takes the third miss as a treasure in his hand, and the lesson given to you today is quite light, you can be content." ”
After listening to Jinglan, Xia Mengru stopped crying, and when she looked in Xia Mengning's direction again, there was ruthlessness in her eyes.
"Sixth Miss, let's go back, what kind of body do you have when you get wet?" Jinglan stood on the side, just talking, but she didn't come to help Xia Mengru.
Xia Mengru lowered her head, hid the cruelty in her eyes, and slowly stood up.
Seeing that Xia Mengru was gone, Xia Mengning was helped to stand up by Jiu'er, looked at Xia Mengrong and said with a smile: "Some of the seventh sisters are busy, so don't bother as a sister." ”
Xia Mengrong only cared about happiness in her heart, where to take care of Xia Mengning, and nodded hurriedly.
Xia Mengning walked out, Xia Mengrong looked at her back and smiled slightly, thinking of the way the prince looked at her just now, her heart was as sweet as drinking honey, it seems that this matter has an unexpected speed of development, so that she will be accepted by the prince in the future.
Xia Mengrong thought happily, so she hurriedly packed up and returned to Moxiang Garden, preparing to share the good news with the Liu family.
Xia Mengning returned to the Bamboo Branch Garden, and sure enough, she saw Changsun Yun sitting on the couch, and when she came back, Changsun Yun hurriedly jumped down from the couch and reached out to her, stretched out her hand and said, "Ning'er, you compensate me, I just moved another woman for you." ”
Xia Mengning smiled, tilted her head and said, "Okay, who made me lose money." ”
As he spoke, he shook his hand and put it to his lips and kissed it gently.
"Is that okay?" Xia Mengning smiled, "I know that you are wronged, but this matter is to save me from the harassment of the two of them in the future, in fact, I blame you for this incident from the beginning, if they hadn't seen your appearance, would I have played such a play?" ”
Xia Mengning said, pursing her lips.
Eldest Sun Yun was very useful to Xia Mengning's appearance, and pulled her body into her arms, "It turns out that Ning'er is jealous, because her husband is not good, but now I find out." ”
Xia Meng pushed away the eldest grandson Yun angrily, and said angrily: "What is a husband? You're shameless. ”
Eldest Sun Yun touched his chin, and a sly look flashed on his handsome face, "Xiao Ning'er, don't be angry......"
"Go back to your palace"
"Okay, my husband is wrong, I apologize to you for my husband......"
"Eldest Sun Yun, I found out why you've been getting more and more bastard lately......"
The dividing line of flirting -
Besides, the Qian family was called back to Xuanmingtang by Xia Chuansheng, and the relationship between the Qian family and Xia Chuansheng was not harmonious, and the two did not communicate much, but just maintained a face-to-face relationship.
Qian walked in and saw Xia Chuansheng sitting on a chair drinking tea, he was wearing a dark robe with a blessing pattern, covered with a dark blue placket and a short gown, more and more like a master.
Qian saluted him, "I've seen the second master." ”
Xia Chuansheng responded lightly, he didn't want to look at the Qian family at a glance, when he was not exiled, there was a Liu family in the house, but the Liu family was from a humble background, just a slave, so even if he was beautiful, he could only accept it as a concubine, and then Xia Chuansheng was exiled, and married the Qian family on the way to exile, the Qian family was a small local pavilion chief's young lady, and she was a daughter of a concubine, she was coaxed by Xia Chuansheng to marry the past, but Xia Chuansheng saw in his eyes the money of the Qian family, and when the Qian family was aware, His dowry has been squandered by Xia Chuansheng, and if he asks one more question, he will add up his fists and feet, and the Qian family will not dare, and he will gradually accept his fate.
Sitting opposite Xia Chuansheng, Qian said respectfully: "I don't know why the second master asked the concubine to come?" ”
Xia Chuansheng drank tea and said lightly: "Now that my identity has changed, I can't be childless under my knees, Meng'er was born to a concubine, and she is not a concubine after all, so I called you here today for this matter." ”
Qian felt bad in his heart, and sure enough, he heard Xia Chuansheng continue: "I have discussed with my mother, you are also old, and now I am afraid that you will not be able to have children, I will give you a sum of money when you catch up with Ming'er, you can take it and go back to your hometown, although Ru'er is not polite and behaves perversely, but she is also my daughter, I will raise her until she gets married." ”
Qian's heart was cold, she looked at Xia Chuansheng, seeing that what he said was so natural, she didn't even frown, Qian laughed coldly a few times, and said, "Xia Chuansheng, what are you, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?" When you were down to that point, who took the money to support your whole family? ”
When Xia Chuansheng heard this, he immediately became a little angry, what he hated most was being said like this, but as soon as he raised his head and saw Qian's tearful eyes, his heart was a little soft, how to say that it was also a one-day husband and wife, not to mention that Qian had been married to him for more than ten years.
But thinking of what Xie Shi said to him, Xia Chuansheng still turned cold, and said viciously: "Don't say it, this matter is settled, Hushu Shu, I will prepare it for you, if you are smart, don't make trouble, you know, if you continue to make trouble, there will be no good results." ”
After speaking, Xia Chuansheng stood up and walked out, Qian was almost mad in anger, and couldn't help but wave his hand to sweep the tea sets on the table to the ground.
It's over, it's all over, if you are kicked out, what is the way to live, your family is waiting for you to have money and then go to help them, if you know that you are abandoned, then where will you still live?
Thinking of this, Qian Shi cried low again.
The next day, Xie found a matchmaker to come to the house early in the morning to discuss the matchmaker to Xia Chuansheng, Qian quietly stood behind the door of Rongfutang, watched the matchmaker walk out happily, patted the dust on his body, and walked in.
Xie Shi and Xia Chuansheng were sitting on the chair and smiling at their heads, looking at which girl was better, Qian Shi came in like this, which made both of them cold-faced.
"Why are you here?" Xie frowned and looked at Qian, obviously very unwelcoming her.
Qian saw the disgust in Xie's eyes, and then thought about Xie's happy eyebrows when he first came in, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, but if he still wanted to live, he had to come to them.
"The daughter-in-law has seen the old lady and the second master." Qian bowed.
Xie Shi snorted coldly and ignored it, but Xia Chuansheng nodded, "Get up." ”
Qian straightened up, and was about to open his mouth to plead, when he heard Xia Chuansheng say: "The letter of resignation has been prepared last night, and it is just right for you to come, take it." ”
As he spoke, a thin piece of rice paper fell in front of Qian's family, and Qian's heart ached, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Second master, old lady, please don't divorce me, I'm a woman, how can I live if I leave here?" ”
Xie frowned, he was very unaccustomed to Qian's style, "How to live, there are more people like you in the world, everyone can live, why can't you live?" ”
Such cruel words came out of Xie's mouth, Qian's heart was really cold, she raised her head angrily, tore up the book of resignation three times and twice, looked at Xia Chuansheng and said: "Since this is the case, then you should also give a reason, I didn't commit any crime, why did you suspend me?" ”
Xie Shi frowned and said coldly: "If you can't give birth to a son, this is a big crime, what if you divorce you?" ”
Qian was stunned for a moment, and then sneered, "Can't give birth to a son?" Do you think I can't give birth, when I gave birth to Ru'er and then conceived a child, the doctor diagnosed that it was a male fetus, it was already eight months, it was your son, he drank wine and beat me, knocked the child out, and caused me to fall ill, unable to give birth, these, is it my fault? ”
Qian said, crying and yelling at Xia Chuansheng, "You say, did you do it?" Do you have the courage to do it, but don't you have the courage to admit it? ”
Xie Shi turned his head to look at Xia Chuansheng, and saw that Xia Chuansheng's face was a little unnatural, so he knew that what Qian said must be true.
Xia Chuansheng was annoyed, and said loudly: "Shut up, I was unintentional about what happened at that time, and I blame you for not having the life of the son!" I'll tell you the truth, now I'm going to take a break from you, and if you know each other, you can quickly take the money and go away, otherwise don't blame me for being polite! ”
Qian laughed a few times, stood up and looked at Xie, and said, "Good, good, good!" ”
Saying that, Qian's eyes widened suddenly, and a mouthful of blood spit out from his mouth, Xie and Xia Chuansheng were startled, but saw Qian stretching out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said fiercely: "Xie, you are also a woman, you can do such a ruthless thing, you vicious old witch, I tell you, if you do this today, you will definitely regret it in the future, I will make you regret it, I will make you regret it......"
Qian Shi's eyes were gloomy when he spoke, like a demon crawling out of hell to ask for his life, and after speaking, Qian Shi laughed and walked out of Rongfu Hall.
Xie patted his chest and breathed, not forgetting to sarcastically say two words, "I'm just an abandoned woman, what's there to be arrogant." ”
After speaking, he said to Chen's mother: "You go and watch her, and send her far away tomorrow morning." ”
Mother Chen nodded and walked down, Xie Shi turned her head to Xia Chuansheng and said, "Look at your wife, it's really rude, fortunately she took an early break, otherwise it would be a disaster to keep it in the future." ”
Xia Chuansheng was depressed in his heart, remembering the Qian family's kindness to him in the past, Xia Chuansheng stood up and said: "Mother, the child is a little uncomfortable, go back first, and come to see his mother tomorrow." ”
After speaking, he stood up and walked out, Xie looked at Xia Chuansheng's back suspiciously, and secretly said What's wrong, is it possible that he still has feelings for that crazy woman.
When Qian returned to Xuanmingtang, he locked himself in the house, Xia Chuansheng didn't go to see her, so she cried in the house all afternoon.
When it was almost dark, Qian changed his clothes and walked out, took a bag and walked to Xia Mengru's Tingyuzhai.
