Chapter 18 Riding a Tiger is Difficult
Lord Ningrong!
The granddaughter of the eighth prince who has just returned to Beijing, who grew up in a sugar jar since childhood.
As soon as Xiao Yunmu's hand was loosened, the whip fell to the ground, ignoring the pain in his palm, Xiao Yunmu subconsciously looked at Sheng Jingnian, and sure enough, he saw Sheng Jingnian staring at her.
There was a sense of uneasiness in her heart, and Xiao Yunmu felt that she was impulsive again.
"Yikes! Why are you here? β
Lord Ningrong stepped forward and grabbed Sheng Jingnian's hand, "It seems that it was a misunderstanding, if you can be with them, then they are not with this boss." β
Hearing this, Sheng Jingnian put away the fan and knocked it on Zhao Siyan's head, "As soon as I returned to Beijing, I alarmed the government, I think you think the eighth prince treats you too well." β
"What, I haven't seen him miss me for three months out of Beijing, where is there anything good for me?" Zhao Siyan pouted, "You just took the opportunity to knock me on the head." β
The golden year shrugged undeniably.
Sun Zhutou looked at this aunt and grandmother who actually had the intention to catch up with people, and when she looked up again, she almost fell down with weak legs.
Why is even Grandpa Sheng here!
"Oh, Sun Zhutou, I haven't seen you for many months, why are you so slow, but for the sake of my good mood, this person, shoddy and planning to pit my money, let me find out that I will not repent, and I will hand it over to you."
"Yes! The subordinate obeyed the order and immediately arrested the person and returned for interrogation! β
"Take it down, bring it down."
Zhao Siyan waved his hand impatiently, casually threw his whip to the personal maid who had been staying beside him, and then took Sheng Jingnian's arm, "Let's go, go to Zuiyue Tower, invite me to dinner." β
Xiao Yunsong next to him looked back and forth on the two of them, looked at them, and leaned over to Xiao Yunmu and whispered, "Lord Ningrong has just come back, but the birthday of the Eighth Lord is approaching, and it is normal to come back at this time, but why did you never know that Lord Ningrong and the little grandfather are so close?" β
Hearing this, Xiao Yunmu also wanted to raise his head and ask Cangtian, how could these two be so close.
However, since Sheng Jingnian wants to accompany Zhao Siyan, he must have no time to accompany them, right? Thinking of this, my eyes lit up.
This Ningrong County Lord can compete for some anger and quickly take Sheng Jingnian away.
suppressed the excitement in his heart, for fear that Sheng Jingnian would find out his careful thoughts.
"You girl, this is the fifth son, the sixth girl, and the ninth girl of the Zhenxi General's Mansion, no matter how anxious you are, you can't let me leave others behind with you, and there must be one who comes first and comes first in everything."
Zhao Siyan turned his head to look at the three of them, his eyes fell on Xiao Yunmu, and he looked up and down.
In fact, she saw it just now, she didn't recognize others, what kind of reputation Xiao Yunmu had in the capital, how could she not recognize it.
"Who should I be, it turned out to be the nine girls who begged General Xiao to enter the palace and let the Queen Mother marry, I have heard the name for a long time, I haven't remembered it after seeing a few times, but now I remember that there is such a number one person."
"Siyan." Sheng Jingnian looked at Zhao Siyan, "Okay." β
ββ¦β¦ What's good, hey, I'm still from the General's Mansion, this three-legged cat's kung fu is really embarrassing. β
Xiao Yunmu looked helpless, this county lord really couldn't get used to himself.
However, if you can't get used to it, you can't get used to it, and you won't see each other in the future anyway.
"I've seen Lord Ningrong." Xiao Yunmu's palms were still hurting, so he casually wrapped it in a handkerchief and looked at Sheng Jingnian, "It's a pleasure for the little grandfather to meet the county lord, I think the little grandfather is still accompanying the county lord, and the three of us brothers and sisters will go back to the general's mansion first." β
"Little Jiu!"
It's really uncompromising!
Xiao Yunsong shouted in a low voice, desperately giving Xiao Jingping next to him a look.
However, Xiao Jingping was tired from shopping, and was about to go home to rest, when he heard Xiao Yunmu's words, where did he care about Xiao Yunsong's little Jiujiu, and took over with a smile, "Xiao Jiu is right, we won't bother the county lord and the little grandfather to catch up, and we will meet again another day." β
One or two, it's really not competitive!
Xiao Yunsong couldn't wait to scold Xiao Yunmu and Xiao Jingping together, a county lord, and he misunderstood them first, how could he destroy his ambition first.
"Whoa! What are you doing in such a hurry? What happened just now was a misunderstanding, I am the east of Drunken Moon Building, how about making amends to the ninth girl? Zhao Siyan glared at the prosperous year, thanks to the prosperous year.
However, why is Sheng Jingnian so interested in this nine girls?
Just as he was pondering this, he saw a familiar figure behind the crowd on the street.
"Sister Gu!"
Xiao Yunmu suddenly regretted that he had promised Xiao Yunsong to go out today.
She should decisively refuse, and then go to accompany Mrs. Xiao and be a good granddaughter under Chenghuan's knees.
At this time, even Xiao Yunsong's face became ugly, who in the capital didn't know the thoughts of the eldest girl Gu of the Marquis of Anrong's mansion about Sheng Jingnian, but anyone who could participate in the spring banquet understood.
That's why when this decree of marriage came down, it shocked everyone's jaws.
The Queen Mother would actually agree, and the eldest princess of Jinyang was not organized?
ββ¦β¦ Mingyou has seen the county lord. β
Gu Ming bowed leisurely, I saw that he was still pitiful and moving, his eyes were full of gentleness and brightness, and his figure was extremely graceful, and he really could afford to be called the first beauty in Bianjing today.
When Zhao Siyan heard this, he smiled and took her hand, "You are still polite to me, what are you polite to me?" We grew up together, besides, I heard that you fell into the water a while ago, but it's all right? β
"Thank you for the county lord's memory, it's all right, otherwise how would my father and mother let me go out." Gu Mingyou glanced at Sheng Jingnian and quickly retracted his gaze, "You just came back, why do you seem to have made another earth-shattering incident." β
"Don't mention it, I almost let a black-hearted shopkeeper get hurt."
"What's going on? Can you report to the official? β
"It's solved, okay, don't stand on the street and talk to me, you're a weak one, I look distressed, let's go to the restaurant and say, I just said to Brother Sheng, let's go to Zuiyue Tower, I'll make amends to the sister of the Xiao family."
Xiao Yunmu, who tried his best to make himself have no sense of existence, sighed lightly when he heard this, looked down at the hem of his skirt, which had been stained by the toss just now, and then talked about the bun and hands.
The bun was a little loose, and the wounds on the hands were still wrapped in handkerchiefs.
Compared with the beautiful and moving Gu Mingyou, where is there an advantage.
"Xiao Jiu, don't worry, even if you are like this, you are better looking than her, you are called, healthy, at first glance, you are full of blood, except for Xiao Qi, all of us in the General's Mansion are strong and healthy."
Hearing this, Xiao Yunmu was amused, pursed his lips and smiled, and gently took Xiao Yunsong's hand, "Sixth sister, thank you." β
Sheng Jingnian stepped forward, not knowing where to take out a jar of medicine, "The white-cut chicken in Zuiyue Building is good." β
looked at the medicine that Sheng Jingnian stuffed into his hand in surprise, "Little grandfather-"
"Let's go, Siyan and Miss Gu have already left first."
Seeing this, Xiao Yunsong hurriedly bumped Xiao Yunmu on the shoulder, "Little master, this medicine was delivered in time, otherwise Yun Mu's hands would not have to be wasted, although he is not as proficient as others in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he also knows a little bit about it, and if he is injured, he will delay things." β
"Sixth sister!"
Is this talking for yourself or tearing down the stage?
Are you afraid that you won't be able to do anything in front of Gu Mingyou?
"Thank you, little grandfather."
Xiao Yunmu took the medicine and pulled Xiao Yunsong to walk forward quickly, and on the way, he had to let Chunyue rub the medicine for him, and his heart was in a mess.
No, no, Sheng Jingnian just now was not tempting, why was she confused, what did Sheng Jingnian do?
"What's wrong with you? Isn't itβ"
"What?"
"The little grandfather gave you medicine, why do you have a hellish expression?"
It's over, even Xiao Yunsong can see it.
Xiao Yunmu hurriedly calmed down and squeezed out a smile, "I had a misunderstanding with the county lord just now, the county lord has a good relationship with him, I'm worried that the county lord will not like me, no, no, I have to attract people to like it, these are messed up again." β
"Ahem, the county lord has a good relationship with Miss Gu, no matter how likable you are, she won't like you." Xiao Yunsong couldn't bear to hit Xiao Yunmu, but she had to tell the truth.
Otherwise, her sister wouldn't have to be stupid to cater to others.
Hearing this, Xiao Yunmu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, Xiao Yunsong believed her words.
It doesn't matter if Zhao Siyan likes her or not, and it doesn't even matter if Sheng Jingnian likes her or not, since she has accepted the divorce, she can only let Sheng Jingnian at least stop calculating herself step by step.
Otherwise, it would be quite a terrifying thing to let someone like Sheng Jingnian calculate.
"Yes! I'll try! β
After Xiao Yunmu finished speaking, the wound on his hand was also medicated, it was cool and cool, and it really had a little effect.
Sheng Jingnian actually carried such a medicine with him, it was really strange.
"Ninth sister, how is the pot of cuckoos I gave you last time? It's supposed to be blooming, right? β
Cuckoo?
Xiao Yunmu was stunned for a moment.
Is it that pot of mandarin duck brocade?
On the side, Chunyue saw that Xiao Yunmu was stunned, and said quickly: "Miss, you forgot, it's the pot of mandarin duck brocade that you accidentally cut the buds last timeββ"
"Spring Moon!"
Sheng Jingnian looked at Xiao Yunmu with a scarlet face, and said with a smile: "It turns out ......"
"No, no, the pot that was cut is not mandarin duck brocade, yes, it's pothos! The mandarin duck brocade has just hit a flower bud, and it should be able to bloom after a while. β
Glaring at Chunyue, Xiao Yunmu felt that she would have to punish Chunyue for not being allowed to eat at night when she went back.
How can you say anything, you can even say this!
Are you afraid that Sheng Jingnian won't settle accounts with her?
Chunyue shrank her neck in fright and stood back.
"Then when I go back to the General's Mansion, I have to go and see it in person, this pot of Mandarin Duck Brocade took a lot of effort to transport it from other places, and it was sent to the General's Mansion as soon as I arrived in the capital.
ββ¦β¦ Yes, if the little grandfather has time, he can go to the house to have a look. β
The only bud of Mandarin Duck brocade was accidentally cut off by her last time, where did the bud come from?
It's miserable, it's really hard to ride a tiger now.
Sheng Jingnian was in a good mood all of a sudden, and patted Xiao Jingping's shoulder with his hand, "Accompany me for a drink later?" β
ββ¦β¦ That's that, gotta have a drink. Xiao Jingping looked incredulous, after all, Sheng Jingnian's attitude towards him was never polite, it seemed that he was really in a good mood, but ...... Why are you in a good mood?
A pot of mandarin duck brocade, is it so rare?
