Chapter 120: Knowing the Secret (1)
The carriage creaked and drove in the direction of the suburbs of Beijing, and when it arrived at the nunnery, Xia Zhihan couldn't wait to jump off the carriage and ran into the nunnery.
Xia Mengxi and the Fang clan were chopping firewood in the backyard, Xia Zhihan entered the yard, and immediately strode over and snatched the axe from Xia Mengxi's hand.
"Big Brother ......"
Xia Mengxi saw Xia Zhihan and hurriedly shouted, Xia Zhihan couldn't bear it, seeing that his sister was doing such vulgar and inferior work, his face couldn't help but turn blue, and he shook his axe and said, "Sister, mother, come in with me." ”
Fang Clan and Xia Mengxi followed Xia Zhihan into the house, and Fang Clan hurriedly said, "Han'er, is there any news?" ”
Saying this, Xia Mengxi also looked at Xia Zhihan very expectantly, and his eyes were already full of anticipation.
Xia Zhihan smiled, "Mother, there is a child out of the horse, what can't be done, my father just asked me to pick up my sister back to the house, and when the auspicious day arrived, I carried it into the prince's mansion." ”
Hearing this, Fang's face couldn't help but smile, his hands folded in front of his chest, and he couldn't stop reading: "Buddha bless." ”
Xia Mengxi's face turned red, but she also asked in disbelief: "Big brother, but really?" ”
As soon as the words came out, Xia Mengxi's face turned even redder, she thought that she was sent to the nunnery by her father, and her mother was abandoned again, and her life would be hopeless, but now Xia Zhihan's news almost ignited her dusty heart again, Xia Mengxi's heart stirred thousands of thoughts, and she felt that her life was full of hope.
Xia Zhihan nodded, "The carriage is parked outside, can I still tell lies?" ”
As he spoke, Xia Zhihan turned his head and said, "Mother, now I can only wronged you to stay here for a few more days, and when my sister's affairs are stabilized, I will take you out immediately." ”
Fang nodded, tears flashing in his eyes.
Xia Mengxi watched her mother cry, and she sighed in her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red. Xia Zhihan saw the appearance of the two, sighed and said, "What are you doing, the carriage is still waiting outside, sister, let's go." ”
With that, Xia Zhihan stood up and walked out. Fang Shi hurriedly pushed Xia Mengxi, and muttered in his mouth: "Go, go!" ”
Xia Mengxi turned back step by step, and finally followed Xia Zhihan's footsteps and got into the carriage.
The carriage swayed back to Xiangfu, Xia Mengxi stepped out of the carriage, and Biyi also jumped down, carrying a few burdens in his hands. Xia Mengxi stood in front of the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, looked at the furnishings at the door, remembered that he had left the Prime Minister's Mansion for almost half a year, sighed in his heart, and said to Xia Zhihan: "Big brother, Daddy can be in the mansion, and when the daughter returns to the mansion, she should go to see her father first." ”
Xia Zhihan's face was embarrassed, remembering what Xia Chuanyuan said before he left, he was stunned in his heart, and said with a smile: "You are tired of traveling, you should go back to Fangfei Garden to rest first, I have already ordered someone to clean up." ”
Saying that, walking forward quickly, Xia Mengxi was puzzled, looking at Xia Zhihan's appearance, but he was a little vigilant in his heart, didn't the eldest brother say that he was going to marry the prince, and his father was very happy, and said that he would be able to raise his eyebrows when he came back to the house, why is the eldest brother dodging now, Xia Mengxi was even more suspicious in his heart, thought about it, and decided to go back to the garden first.
Walking into the door with Biyi, the oncoming family saw her, stopped her footsteps, and shouted with an embarrassed face: "Miss." ”
I left in a hurry.
Xia Mengxi was puzzled in her heart, she didn't know what was going on, Bi Yi followed in a few steps, and asked quietly: "Miss, the look in the eyes of that slave just now was so strange." ”
Xia Mengxi nodded, and followed Xia Zhihan's steps and came to Fangfei Garden.
After more than half a year, returning to his garden again, Xia Mengxi was full of emotion in his heart, carefully touched the surrounding furnishings, and saw that they were all spotless, and he was happy in his heart, but also thanked Xia Zhihan.
Xia Zhihan saw Xia Mengxi's appearance, walked over and said, "Sister, you are staying here now, I will send someone to bring in food or something, and if there is anything, you just ask Biyi to tell me." ”
In and out of the words, they all didn't want Xia Mengxi to go out, Xia Mengxi went through those things, and her mood was no longer what she used to be, but now when she heard Xia Zhihan say this, coupled with the changes she saw when she just entered the house, Xia Mengxi's doubts deepened, and she looked at Xia Zhihan's figure who was eager to go out, but she only nodded and didn't ask.
After Xia Zhihan left, Xia Mengxi entered the house, Biyi had already boiled water, and came in with a copper basin to wipe Xia Mengxi's face.
Xia Mengxi took the handkerchief, wiped his face and said, "Biyi, do you think something is wrong?" ”
Biyi stood aside, puzzled, "Miss, why do you ask that?" ”
Xia Mengxi shook his head, put down the handkerchief in his hand and walked to the small couch by the window and sat down, put his hand on the small table, knocked it a few times, and then said, "No, Biyi, we have to go out and have a look." ”
Biyi poured water in, and when she heard Xia Mengxi say this, Biyi was puzzled: "Miss, where are we going?" ”
Xia Mengxi blinked, "I haven't gone to see my father yet, I should also let my father know that I've come back." ”
Xia Mengxi changed into a moon-yellow dress, which seemed to be calmer, and the two went to Yong'an Hall together, and the family guarding the door saw Xia Mengxi, and was stunned for a while before saying, "The younger one has seen the eldest lady." ”
Xia Mengxi saw all this in her eyes, and felt more and more that something was wrong in her heart, and nodded and said, "Daddy is inside?" ”
The doorkeeper shook his head, "If you go back to the eldest lady, the master went to Mrs. Mei's and hasn't come back yet." ”
Mrs. May? Xia Mengxi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Which Mrs. Mei?" ”
The housekeeper who guarded the door said: "It's Mrs. Mei of Mei Fangyuan, the lord usually goes to her in the afternoon......"
As he was talking, another family member came over, saw Xia Mengxi, and hurriedly stepped forward, "I've seen the eldest lady." ”
turned around, but glared fiercely at the man who spoke.
The family who was talking didn't know why, but he had always been obedient, so he immediately shut up and stopped talking.
Xia Mengxi sensed that something was wrong, and smiled: "Since this is the case, I will go back first." ”
and Biyi turned around and walked back, but Xia Mengxi took Biyi's hand and quickly hid behind the big tree at the corner, and sure enough, seeing Xia Mengxi's master and servant walking away, the later family reached out and patted the family who spoke.
"You have no eyesight, why do you say anything!"
"The eldest lady came to ask, I'll tell me where the master went, what's wrong?"
"Say that you are still wronged by your elm head, the eldest lady marries the prince, who doesn't know what's going on, the prince is not favored by the emperor now, who is willing to marry his daughter......"
"I don't know ......"
"I don't know if you're still talking nonsense, you can't see what the master means, maybe it was the eldest young master who sold his own sister for his own future, let's take care of this matter, and save it on ourselves."
The voices of the two gradually disappeared, Xia Mengxi's face had become pale, and sure enough, she had become the daughter that her father hated, how could she marry herself to the prince's mansion, it turned out that the prince was not favored and wanted to win over the power, and his father had no way to rebel with the prince, so he had to choose to go by himself.
Xia Mengxi thought like this, two lines of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, Biyi also knew the reason for the matter, looking at Xia Mengxi's silent crying, her heart was uncomfortable.
Xia Mengxi cried quietly for a while, knowing that she was being used by her eldest brother now, although she hated it in her heart, she also knew that it was not the time, so she could only go to her father first to see if things could turn around.
Thinking of this, Xia Mengxi stood up, carefully wiped her tears with an embroidered handkerchief, and said to Biyi beside her: "Let's go, let's go see Daddy." ”
With that, Xia Mengxi and Biyi hurriedly went to Meifangyuan.
Jade was talking to Jiu'er in the garden, when she saw two figures rushing in, Jiu'er was startled, and when she saw the person clearly, she hurriedly shouted: "I've seen the eldest lady." ”
In the inner room, Xia Mengning and Ge were embroidering a handkerchief, Xia Chuanyuan was sitting on the side with a calligraphy, and when he heard the sound outside, Xia Chuanyuan frowned and asked, "Who?" ”
Xia Mengning knew it in her heart, and said softly: "In the morning, the eldest brother said that he was going to pick up the eldest sister in the nunnery and return home, and the daughter saw that the time was almost now, presumably the eldest sister had returned." ”
Xia Chuanyuan's heart was stunned, put down the brush in his hand and put it aside, Ge Shi saw it, and hurriedly prepared to stand up, "Concubine go out to see ......"
"You're back!" Xia Chuanyuan shouted, Ge Shi looked at Xia Chuanyuan's face, sat back again, Xia Mengning moved to Ge's side and patted her hand.
Xia Chuanyuan frowned, but stared at the calligraphy in front of him tightly, "You are the eldest lady now, don't always lose your identity like before." ”
Ge's face was stunned, knowing that Xia Chuanyuan was defending her, his heart couldn't help but warm, and he didn't speak again.
At this moment, Xia Mengxi and Biyi walked in, and when they saw this meeting, Xia Mengxi was stunned for a moment, but then regained his composure, and walked over to Xia Chuanyuan, "My daughter has seen Daddy." ”
Xia Chuanyuan didn't raise his head and asked, "Didn't your eldest brother tell you that you didn't have to ask for peace?" ”
Xia Mengxi was a little unbearable when she was said, so she had to nod and said: "My daughter knows that she has no shame to face her father again, but now that her daughter is back, she can't help but come to ask her father for peace and ask her father to be forgiving." ”
Xia Chuanyuan was impatient in his heart, he thought that this matter was inseparable from Xia Mengxi, so he was annoyed by this daughter, for his own sake, he would rather let the entire Prime Minister be frightened, and he could be implicated at any time, what is the use of such a disloyal and unfilial daughter? !
Thinking of this, Xia Chuanyuan felt unhappy in his heart, and felt that it was not interesting to stay any longer, so he hurriedly got up and put on his shoes, and said to Ge Shi: "I'll come back for dinner." ”
Xia Mengxi saw that Xia Chuanyuan was gone, so he straightened up, knowing in his heart that he had been disliked by his father, thinking of this, Xia Mengxi couldn't help but glance at Ge and Xia Mengning in the room.
"In the days when I was not in the house, the third sister was having a good time." No matter how calm Xia Mengxi is, when he sees Xia Mengning, he can't calm down.
All she has now is due to Xia Mengning.
Xia Mengning curled her lips and smiled, knowing that Xia Mengxi regarded herself as an enemy, but so what, she couldn't wait for her life to be better than death.
Xia Mengning looked at Xia Mengxi's light makeup, and said with a smile: "As the eldest sister can see, the younger sister is doing well, but the eldest sister is not very good, after all, the conditions in the nunnery are very hard, but when the eldest sister left, I specially told the little sixth son to ask the master there to take good care of the eldest sister." ”
Saying that, Xia Mengning watched Xia Mengxi's face turn pale as she wished, and then said, "Thinking about it like this, the eldest sister won't have a bad time, right?" ”
Xia Mengxi's pretty face turned iron-blue, and her hands were clenched tightly, as if she was trying to restrain her anger.
In the past six months, I have wanted to commit suicide several times, just because the conditions in the nunnery are not good, and several nuns in it are beating and scolding themselves and Biyi at every turn, and I almost can't get through it, but now, this slut actually said in front of him that she did all this, so how can she not hate?
Thinking of this, Xia Mengxi said: "Xia Mengning, you don't have to deceive people too much, now that I can come back alive, I guess you must be angry, right?" ”
Xia Mengning listened and laughed a few times, "Big sister, I want to remind you that this prince is not something that everyone can climb, since the big sister has such confidence, go and give it a try, my sister is here to congratulate." ”
Xia Mengxi didn't know that what he relied on was just a name that sounded good, seeing Xia Mengning smiling so happily, Xia Mengxi couldn't help but clench his hands tightly, and suddenly his eyes turned and he saw Ge Shi sitting on the side, and smiled: "Mrs. Mei, it turned out to be the fourth aunt, I wonder why my father can mercilessly divorce my mother, it turns out that you, the fox spirit, are the obstruction." ”
Ge's face turned pale, but Xia Mengning continued: "Big sister is not stunned, Fang's today, it is completely her own fault, Daddy just saw her true face too early, the eldest sister is here to make a big fuss, the younger sister is very curious, is the eldest sister relying on the identity of the eldest brother who has been suspended, or is the Zhenguo Mansion going to be beheaded on the street in a few days?" ”
Xia Mengxi was snatched by Xia Mengning, and her face turned red, "Xia Mengning, you don't have to taunt me here, I know, I'm not as good as you now, but don't be complacent, I will ...... you one day"
"What will happen to me?" Xia Mengning got up from the couch and walked in front of Xia Mengxi step by step, staring at the person in front of her with a pair of gorgeous and unparalleled eyes, "Xia Mengxi, do you think you are still the eldest lady who was beautiful before, or do you think that I am still the concubine who will not fight back even if you bully me?" ”
Xia Mengxi was stunned for a moment, the girl in front of her had a beautiful face, but with a decisive momentum, the words that made her come to her lips were swallowed again.
