A few people were happy, and a maid walked in at the door of Fuyao Garden, bowed to Dong Ru in the pavilion, and asked: "Madam, the county lord of Yongping has come over, saying that he is inviting you to talk." ”

Dong Ru and the three people in the pavilion were stunned when they heard this, Dong Ru was even more panicked, Jiang Xueyao was impulsive and tricky, she saw it that day, the wound on Zishu's face has not gone away until now, who knows what she came here this time.

Mama Wang on the side picked up the child, and said worriedly while coaxing: "Madam, this Yongping county lord is a well-known little devil in the capital, her father and mother guarded the frontier in the early years, and made great contributions to the court. ”

"yes, didn't she almost get into trouble that time?" Zi Shu on the side touched his face, and also said worriedly to her: "You have a gentle temperament, and she is such a master who does not listen to people's good words, you will definitely suffer if you take a picture of her, and now the adult is not in the house, if you are in the house, the adult will not agree to you going." ”

Dong Ru was already afraid of her in her heart, but now her palms were sweating densely, listening to the words of Mama Wang and Zishu, she was even more dispossessed in her heart, and she didn't want to accept it, but now she was even more restless, because she was worried that even if she didn't go to the appointment, according to Jiang Xueyao's temperament, she would definitely rush in regardless of it, so it was useless for her to agree or not.

She was in a dilemma, and the maidservant who asked for instructions spoke again: "Mrs. Hui, the lord of Yongping also said that if you don't go out to answer the appointment, she will wait at the door until you come out." ”

After listening to the maid's words, Dong Ru and the three of them looked at each other, and they were all shocked, she was determined to ask Dong Ru to go out.

Dong Ru was very embarrassed, Qilang had already explained to her, don't get too close to her, but if she doesn't mess with her, it doesn't mean that Jiang Xueyao doesn't take the initiative. I want to refuse, but Jiang Xueyao is the identity of the county lord, and she is at the same official level, even if she is Wei Qilang's wife, but if she doesn't have an edict on her, she is just an ordinary lady in the courtyard of a deep house, and the county lord still has to be obedient when summoned.

But Dong Ru was really afraid that she wouldn't be like that day, and she would definitely be able to do this kind of thing without saying a word, so she thought of a compromise and replied to the servant: "Then you go and invite the county lord in, I'll wait to meet her." ”

The maidservant girl agreed and went, but she was so shocked that Mama Wang and Zishu exclaimed at the same time.

"Madame!" When Mama Wang and Zishu heard this, their brows furrowed, they disagreed, and looked at her worriedly together.

Dong didn't want to refuse, but he was helpless, but he didn't explain, and only said to Mama Wang: "Mama, hold Qi'er away, don't implicate him." As he spoke, he stood up again and said to Zishu: "You go and call Brother Xiao Yongxiao over, I think he must be in the mansion this time, you go quickly." ”

Zishu was very worried about her, and she was extremely unwilling, but when she heard her speak clearly and ordered all the people, she couldn't help but be stunned, looked at her, and felt that this master seemed to have changed a little, and people were still kind, but there were more changes in their unfazed attitude.

At the moment, she didn't say anything more, so she went out of Fuyao Garden with Mama Wang, and separated, and she went to call Xiao Yong.

Leaving Dong Ru alone, he hurriedly calmed down, looked down at the clothes on his body, and waited for her after packing up everywhere.

But she didn't want her to come alone, followed by Xiao Yong, Dong Ru was stunned, it seemed that Zishu didn't run into him.

When they met again, she still had a beautiful and delicate face, but her expression shocked Dong Ru. She walked lightly, as if she was weak, and slowly went up to the pavilion, until she stood in front of Dong Ru, Dong Ru looked at her and couldn't come back to her senses, her appearance today was not like the two of them before, not at all.

She changed the red and good-looking clothes, but she wore a plain and elegant blue shirt, and the clothes were also long skirts and floor-length, unlike what she wore before, always full of energy and energetic dress. The light color only reflected her as if she was a few years older, and she completely lost the green air of a girl.

Her face was pale and bloody, her lips were also white and transparent, and a pair of big eyes that were always charming before looked godless and indifferent at the moment, Dong Ru had a real illusion, feeling that she didn't look at her at all, a pair of eyes but looked away without focus. And her whip, which was always on her side, was also gone, and her hands hung down weakly, standing there like a desperate lonely ghost who had lost the support of her soul.

Dong Ru's eyes widened, and she couldn't imagine that this was still her?

But the salute still has to be done, Dong Ru's body moved, and he wanted to bend down to salute her, but was interrupted by her voice, as soon as he heard her voice, Dong Ru was shocked again, the previous voice like a yellow bird was gone, but it changed, like the cry of an old woman when she was dying.

"You don't have to salute me." After speaking, she spoke to Xiao Yong again.

Her voice was rough and low, and the tone she came out was like the voice of a poor kitten who no one cared about at night, Mu Ran said to Xiao Yong behind her: "I came here today to say goodbye to Mrs. Wei, you go out, I won't make trouble, don't guard against me." ”

Dong Ru and Xiao Yong frowned at the same time when they heard this, the difference was that Dong Ru's reaction was very surprised, she actually called her Mrs. Wei, this title should be very exciting for her, but she didn't seem to react when she said it.

And Xiao Yong felt that this county lord was very abnormal, he was ordered by Wei Qilang, and secretly kept around Dong Ru, and when he just left the mansion today, he saw Jiang Xueyao who was walking like a ghost outside the mansion gate, when even looking at her in confusion, she completely changed her appearance, and she did not enter the mansion, but let people spread it, which really shocked Xiao Yong.

But before she was messed up, she pretended to be pretending, so she followed to protect Dong Ru, listening to her at the moment, she was also surprised, but her body didn't move.

Seeing that he didn't leave, Jiang Xueyao walked to the side of the pavilion and sat down, as soon as she sat down, her pale face seemed to be ruddy, as if she hadn't eaten for a few days, her body leaned on the railing weakly, she always lowered her eyelids, looked at the ground and said to Xiao Yong: "Don't worry, I won't mess around, I informed Brother Ziming before I came, and he agreed to me to come." ”

Dong Ru has been looking at her, she has very complicated feelings about her, there are fears, admiration, jealousy, and many indescribable feelings, but looking at her at this moment, she feels a pain in her heart for no reason, she just feels that what kind of emotion can make an upright young and beautiful girl suddenly turn into an old time garbage in an instant.

She nodded at Xiao Yong and said, "Brother Xiao, I'm fine, you better go out." ”

Xiao Yong didn't listen at first, turned his head to look at Jiang Xueyao, and saw that she really didn't make any moves, so he nodded, turned around and walked out of the pavilion, but he didn't go far, he only stood where he could see Dong Ru and looked at her, as long as there was any movement, he could rush over as soon as possible.

Xiao Yong left, and there were only two of them left in the pavilion, Dong Ru didn't know what to say all of a sudden, her mind was very empty, as if she had nothing to talk about with this county lord, so she just closed her mouth and stood aside and looked at her.

But Jiang Xueyao raised her head at this time, looking at her with those wooden eyes, but her expression was lonely, this expression only made Dong Ru's heart pinch, and there was an indescribable feeling.

The weather outside was good, but inside the pavilion felt lonely.

After being looked at for a long time, Jiang Xueyao suddenly said softly: "Before I was born, my father died on the battlefield, and my mother was pregnant with me to pursue him, but she gave birth to me when she killed herself, and then, she didn't care about my self-murder." Since my full moon, I have been the first county lord with a different surname above ten thousand people, and others say that I am worshiped by ten thousand people, but only I know that this glory of mine was given to me by the death of my father. ”

She said slowly, looking at the ground with her eyes in disgrace, her voice was so soft that she couldn't seem to hear it, and it seemed that she only said it to herself: "Since I was sensible, the first person I saw was Brother Ziming, at that time he was suffering from whipping, but I saw that he actually laughed, disdainful of those pains, I didn't understand at the time, but when I grew up, I realized that no matter at any time, even if he was dying, he also laughed like that, not to me." ”

"Later, I was decreed to be married." She said, raised her eyelids and looked at Dong Ru quietly, looking at her ruddy little face, her eyes were clear and smart at all times, and her heart was sad, she lowered her eyelids and didn't want to look at it anymore, and said softly: "I'm very happy, really happy, because I can finally heal the wounds in his heart openly, I look forward to using my own strength to make him less smiling in the future, but you married him, I have known him for ten years, but I can't match your one year together." ”

Dong Ru listened, but her heart was gripped, it turned out that they had known each other so early, she felt uncomfortable in her chest, Jiang Xueyao said a lot of things she didn't know, and she gave her an inferiority complex, but very bad illusion, as if she was the latecomer who broke the marriage contract between them, this feeling is very difficult and unspeakable, like a blunt knife, it doesn't hurt people, but it is blocked in her heart and makes her breathless.

"How old are you?" Jiang Xueyao asked her, her body was weak, so she leaned towards the railing again, looking at her face, her eyes were blank.

From the first time she saw her, her heart was crazy, this woman was very different in her eyes, she was used to seeing a fox woman who pasted a man's body, she suddenly jumped into her eyes, like a bend of clear spring, clear and elegant, but with the true beauty of the green mountains and green waters, there is no ordinary woman's rustic, there is no natural nobility in the rich and noble people and the ugly face that everyone despises, unlike her, a tricky and arrogant atmosphere.

Unconsciously from the first glance, even her heart couldn't help but think that she was actually very suitable for Brother Ziming, although she didn't want to think so, but as soon as this woman's appearance appeared in her mind, she would feel inferior and envious, and she had to admit that they were actually a good match.

Dong Ru was slightly stunned, not understanding why she asked like this, but remembering her age, she still replied: "Seventeen years old." ”

As soon as she said this, Jiang Xueyao suddenly raised her head and looked at her, her expression was desperate and sad, she took a breath and eased her breath, but she laughed slowly, her voice was sour and rough, as if the night owl was crying sadly, and she seemed to be laughing at herself and as if she was laughing at fate.

After laughing enough, she said, "It turns out that I am a year younger than you, I always thought I was older than you." ”

——The years are like songs, green and green, but I feel that life is lonely and miserable, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for.

When she said so tiredly in her heart, she fell silent, and her eyes drooped, looking away in a distracted manner.

The breeze blew, carrying the cold air of deep winter, and the beaded curtains hanging above the pavilion tinkled and no one spoke, and the air brought by the cold wind seemed to be desperate, sighing silently.

Dong Ru was dressed thickly, but it was not cold, but she saw that Jiang Xueyao was only wearing a light brown thin material shirt, the wind blew, the cold wind was biting, and her face was painful, but Jiang Xueyao leaned motionless on the railing, as if she was weak, and like a puppet who had no feelings, she didn't care at all.

She couldn't bear it in her heart, but she didn't want to open her mouth, she was still scared of this woman after all, and after listening to so many things she said, she only felt that she didn't know how to interface, in fact, what could the interface remedy, she came here to tell her that it was useless, the holy decree was still there, as long as the emperor did not agree, she was still the same Mrs. Wei.

Dong Ru felt bitter and sad in her heart, and remembered her sentence: As long as you are in the capital, my marriage contract with Brother Ziming is still there, and you are the concubine who can never be recognized by the royal family and the Wei family! A lowly, despised concubine! Her heart is sour and unspeakable, she is sad, and she is not a sad person.

"Actually, I'm envious of you." After being quiet for a while, Jiang Xueyao suddenly smiled, very kind.

Dong Ru was stunned when she heard it, and before she could react, she saw her stand up, hold on to the railing and walk down slowly, and when she was leaving, she suddenly turned around, looked at her calmly for a long time, and suddenly said softly: "He rarely sleeps at night, and he has insomnia, you take good care of it." ”

After speaking, he walked down the pavilion, and when he looked at it from a distance, he was staggering, and her body was swaying in the wind, and even when she passed by Xiao Yong, she actually passed by.

Dong Ru stood in the pavilion and watched from afar, until she couldn't see but she hadn't come back to her senses, and after standing for a long time, she suddenly lowered her head and looked silently at the place where she was sitting and was silent for a while, then she walked into the house by herself, closed the door and never came out.

Although Xiao Yong on the side was puzzled, when he saw that she was safe, he also walked away, and hid in the dark to take care of her.
