Looking at the look of relief on Mrs. Wang's face, Ruan Yezhen suddenly understood: it was not that Mrs. Wang couldn't see through. It's just that at this time, she really wants someone to be by her side like this......

After coming out of Tingfeng Courtyard, Ruan Yezhen took many wrong paths and detours, and finally found Xie Jinlan's Qingfeng Courtyard.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Xie Jinlan sitting at the stone table with Mo Yan standing behind her.

Opposite Xie Jinlan, sat a strong man in coarse linen. Looking at this person's back, Ruan Yezhen only felt a little familiar.

Walking to Xie Jinlan's side and seeing the man's face clearly, Ruan Yezhen suddenly realized: It turned out to be Li Daniu from Lijia Village.

But seeing that his expression was very restrained, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Obviously, it was Xie Jinlan's identity that made him feel uncomfortable sitting at the same table with him.

Xie Jinlan glanced at Ruan Yezhen seemingly inadvertently, and then looked at Li Da Niu with a smile: "Da Niu, you came to see me today, but what did you find out?" ”

Li Daniu bowed his head slightly, and then said:

"Maybe it's because Wang Tianci has just been there not long ago, and the atmosphere in the entire Yuanwai Mansion is a little weird. The mouths of those little guys are much tighter than usual, for fear that if they say something wrong, it will be punished when it reaches the ears of their masters.

But yesterday, a guy who had a good relationship with the grass people accidentally slipped his mouth and talked about a strange thing five years ago. The grass people didn't know if it would be useful to adults, but they still thought about telling adults first. ”

When Ruan Yezhen heard this, she couldn't help muttering: "Five years ago again?" What happened five years ago? ”

Xie Jinlan, who was at the tip of his ear, heard these words correctly, but he looked at Li Daniu with a worried expression with a light smile: "Don't be nervous, what happened five years ago, you just have to tell me in detail." ”

The expression on Li Daniu's face relaxed a little: "Although that little guy is inconspicuous in the Yuanwai Mansion, he has been in the Mansion for many years, and he still knows some major events in the Mansion." ”

After a pause, Li Daniu looked left and right for a moment, and saw that there were only Xie Jinlan and Mo Yan here, so he said in a low voice:

"I heard that five years ago, Wang Tianci fell in love with a beautiful girl. But that Yahuan already has a fiancé, so she is naturally unwilling to obey Wang Tianci. Later, one day, Na Yahuan suddenly left a letter, saying that she couldn't stay in the Yuanwaifu anymore and wanted to go to her fiancé.

The strange thing is that on the day that Yahuan left the Yuanwai Mansion, Wang Tianci suddenly developed a high fever and kept talking nonsense. After being busy inside and outside the house for a day and a night, Wang Tianci's body slowly improved. ”

Xie Jinlan pondered for a moment, and then asked, "That girl is literate?" ”

Li Daniu scratched his head and said, "This, the grass people don't know very well. ”

Xie Jinlan bowed slightly: "The official knows, if there is nothing to do, you can leave first." ”

Li Daniu got up from the stone bench a little impatiently, and bowed to Xie Jinlan: "Then the grass people will retreat first?" ”

After getting Xie Jinlan's affirmation, Li Daniu left Qingfeng Courtyard quickly.

Looking at the direction of Li Daniu's hasty departure, Mo Yan smiled and teased: "My lord, why does Mo Yan think that in the eyes of Li Daniu, you are like a flood beast?" ”

When Ruan Yezhen heard this, she covered her mouth and snickered.

Xie Jinlan glared at Mo Yan: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

Then he smiled and said: "The official is going to the lotus pond, you don't have to follow." ”

As he spoke, he stood up with his clothes and strode towards the courtyard gate.

Mo Yan smiled and replied loudly: "Yes, my lord!" Mo Yan is waiting for you back in the courtyard! ”

Entering the garden, Xie Jinlan and Ruan Yezhen saw Lin Xueer and her maid chasing and playing with Lushui from a distance.

Ruan Yezhen glanced at Xie Jinlan beside her, and muttered: "I don't know if it's a man who misleads people, or if it's a seductive power, this Lin Xue'er really knows how to get stitches." ”

Xie Jinlan glanced at Ruan Yezhen lightly, then his eyebrows twisted slightly, and he turned around and left in the direction he was going.

At this time, Lin Xue'er seemed to have just seen Xie Jinlan's figure, and shouted: "Master Xie, what a coincidence!" Then he walked here with the green water.

Ruan Yezhen looked at Xie Jinlan with some schadenfreude.

Xie Jinlan glared at Ruan Yezhen angrily, then retracted his expression, and watched Lin Xue'er's master and servant approach with an expressionless face.

As if she was afraid that Xie Jinlan would take the opportunity to slip away, Lin Xue'er almost trotted over.

After standing still in front of Xie Jinlan, she saw a little sweat on her forehead, her breath was slightly panting, her eyes were slightly drooping, and the corners of her mouth were pulling out a just right smile: "Xue'er has seen Master Xie." ”

The green water behind him also saluted: "The slave has seen Master Xie." ”

Xie Jinlan hummed lightly: "Get up." ”

Lin Xue'er raised her eyes to look at Xie Jinlan, her eyes flashed with surprise: "Master Xie, you and I are really destined." It's better to meet by chance, can adults come to the gazebo to drink a cup of hot tea? ”

Xie Jinlan said lightly: "What if the official is unwilling to appreciate his face? ”

Lin Xue'er's face turned pale, and she involuntarily took a step back, hanging her head slightly, and she didn't know what to say.

Lu Shui took a half step forward to support Lin Xue'er, and glared at Xie Jinlan regardless of his dignity:

"Lord Xie, please forgive the slave for being rude! But the slave is really not vomiting and unhappy! My aunt just invited you to drink a cup of hot tea, do you have to be so unkind and hurt my aunt's sincerity? ”

Lin Xue'er scolded in a low voice: "Green water, don't be rude to Lord Xie!" ”

Lu Shui looked at Lin Xue'er disapprovingly, with a little distress on her face: "Auntie, Lu Shui can't bear to see you so depressed and suffer from lovesickness alone." ”

Lin Xue'er smiled bitterly: "It's all fate." ”

Then he slowly raised his face, with tears in his eyes, and looked at Xie Jinlan with a sigh: "My lord, the green water is also the heart of the protector, don't blame her." ”

Xie Jinlan's expression did not change, but he responded lightly.

Lin Xue'er leaned over and thanked her. Then he looked at Xie Jinlan with teary eyes, and his voice was choked:

"Master Xie, Xue'er finally asks you, are you really unwilling to fulfill Xue'er's little wish?"

Xie Jinlan glanced at Xue'er deeply, suddenly chuckled, and said, "It's better to be respectful than obey your fate." ”

Immediately, without waiting for Lin Xue'er's master and servant to react, he walked past the two of them and walked towards the pavilion not far away.

Lin Xue'er and Lu Shui glanced at each other, and they both saw the same joy in each other's eyes, and then followed in Xie Jinlan's footsteps.

Seeing the two of them like this, Ruan Yezhen knew that they must have some bad water in their stomachs. That cup of hot tea wasn't that easy to drink.

Floating to Xie Jinlan's side, Ruan Yezhen kindly reminded: "Xie Jinlan, these two must be planning something, you have to be careful." ”
