Gu Nuo was visiting outside the door, and when he saw Su Zhixi coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Why did the girl go for so long?" ”

Su Zhixi put her arm around and replied, "I went to A-Niang's to talk to her for a while, and before I knew it, it was time." ”

Then he asked, "Has Cheng En come back?" ”

Guno replied, "When I came back, I said that I was tired and slept in the house." ”

As he spoke, his eyes skimmed towards Cheng En's residence, and he said sourly, "What I know is that she is informal, and those who don't know think she is a master." ”

Su Zhixi only smiled silently, looked at the small piece of road illuminated under the lantern, and walked carefully.

Lin's office.

After everyone left, Su Jingyan reluctantly followed the Lin family into the back room.

Seeing her unabated anger, Lin Shi was also angry, and scolded, "What doesn't grow, then Master Li asked for it from you because of how many relationships I trusted, you are good, you are not good at learning, and you dare to show it out." It doesn't matter if he is compared to anyone, but he is the most uncompetitive Su Zhixi. Master Li's face is all lost to you today. ”

Su Jingyan didn't think about the stakes, she just thought about losing face today.

Now that he was reminded by Lin's family, Fang woke up.

Rinan is one of the best dancers in Kyoto, and there are countless women from families who want her to teach her.

It's just that Li Nan's price is high, and a single dance is a daughter.

Therefore, many women from ordinary families are discouraged.

In order for Su Jingyan to be a blockbuster in the future, the Lin family did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to invite Li Nan to teach her dance.

If she dances well today, that's it.

is a mediocre dance, and Su Zhixi pointed out in public where to learn.

As soon as the competition in Huangfu spread, I was afraid that she would lose more than face.

Although Su Jingyan has a strong sense of victory and defeat, in the end, she is the daughter of the Lin family, and she is naturally clear about the interests at the critical moment.

She knelt on her knees and said in a low voice, "Ah Niang, today is Yan'er reckless, Ah Niang is not angry, Master Li, I will go and ask for guilt again." ”

Lin squinted coldly at Su Jingyan, who was kneeling on the ground.

She and Su Shen only have a pair of children.

His son Su Zheyu is not talented, but in the end, he is a man, and he is enrolled in Chongwenguan, so there will be no big mistakes in the future, and it will not be a problem to be prosperous and rich in his life.

As far as her daughter is concerned, her qualifications are mediocre, and her appearance can be regarded as upright, if she doesn't have some skills, if she wants to find a good in-law in the future, it is a fool's dream.

It is precisely because of this that she attaches more importance to her cultivation.

Lin waited for Su Jingyan to kneel for a long time before he spoke, "Tan Si, bring the girl a cup of milk tea and prepare two more snacks." ”

turned to sigh and said helplessly to Su Jingyan, who was kneeling on the ground, "Get up, I'm too anxious." ”

Su Jingyan stood up cautiously, enduring the pain in her knees, and did not dare to squeak.

"Sit down."

Lin Shi pulled the beads in his hand and said lightly, "In the past, I underestimated the second girl." ”

Su Jingyan didn't know the deep meaning of Lin's words, so she didn't dare to answer easily, and after pondering for a while, she said, "A-Niang, do you feel that she is different from usual today?" ”

Lin twisted the string of beads unmoved, and sneered, "Being able to pretend to be under our noses for thirteen years is also considered to have some ability." ”

"Ah Niang means that for so many years, Su Zhixi she..."Su Jingyan said halfway, and quickly denied it, "Impossible, her high-flying and domineering temperament has been like this since she was a child." ”

Lin listened to Su Jingyan's words, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"What a child knows, it's the people behind her who are powerful."

Su Jingyan said tentatively, "A-Niang is talking about Aunt Yin?" But I don't think Aunt Yin is a thoughtful person. ”

Lin replied to the question, "Today I could have easily cured one of their mothers for the sin they had privately accepted without the permission of their mother." But the two girls moved thousands of pounds in twos and fours, and solved the problem in front of them. ”

"Aunt Yao is involved in seducing your grandfather, no matter whether her words are true or not, for the sake of your grandfather's face, this matter cannot be pursued further. Today, I carefully observed Su Zhixi, although she pretended to be sincere and fearful on the surface, but her eyes could not help but reveal the confidence of the bamboo. ”

Lin couldn't smile and said, "Yan'er, it's not too late for us to know now, watch out for them carefully." ”

Su Jingyan nodded, and then asked, "A-Niang, are you just on guard?" ”

Lin said, "We don't know how deep the water is for their mother and daughter, and now it's not a person who has cheapened three rooms for nothing." However, "

Lin stopped what he was doing, put the beads on the wooden table, took the boiled tea, and said slowly, "It's not Aunt Yao who is involved in the second girl today, you are like a brother and sister to the fourth girl." Her aunt suffered such a great humiliation in front of everyone, and it is reasonable for you to give advice and anger for her. ”

Su Jingyan soothed the breath that was pressing in her heart and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Yan'er knows what to do." ”

After the mother and daughter finished chatting, Tan Si walked in with a small tray.

"It's not early, the third girl eats something, and let's go back and rest early." I'll have the hot water ready for Qi'er in your room, and I'll be able to use it when I get back. ”

After being reminded by Tan Si, Su Jingyan remembered that she was still wearing the clothes she wore to the banquet.

I secretly praised Tan Si for being careful, and said, "It's still Tan Si careful, it's not too early, and it's inconvenient for me to disturb A-Niang's rest, this milk tea, you let your subordinates send it to my house." ”

After speaking, he got up and saluted the Lin family, and said, "Auntie, Yan'er will go back first." ”

Lin looked up at Su Jingyan, hooked a faint smile, and said softly, "Go ahead." ”

After Su Jingyan left, Tan Si began to wait for Lin to freshen up and go to bed.

Lin took the handkerchief handed by Tan Si, paused, and asked, "Tan Si, what do you think of this girl Yan'er?" ”

Tan Si replied, "Miss Yan'er is still young, and she is inferior to her master, but master, you can find a few people as smart and decisive as you among the general public." ”

Lin shook his head disapprovingly and said, "Yan'er is not angry. Sora has some cleverness, but when this cleverness meets a human spirit, it will become self-inflicted cleverness. ”

She wiped the water droplets on her hands, handed the handkerchief to Tan Si, and said softly, "Tan Si, my life is not good, the life of the Lin family is not good." Otherwise, at this time, the mother of the world... It's me..."

"Master, it's late at night, go to bed early."

Lin looked at himself in the mirror, and his face, which should have been vivid and lively, was lifeless.

At the end of the eye, you can see some fine lines if you look closely.

Lin rubbed the corners of his eyes with his fingertips and sighed, "Tan Si, I'm old..."

Tan Si followed Lin's gaze, looked at Lin Xiu in the mirror, smiled, and said, "I have been with my master for twenty-three years, and when I first got with my master, my master was still a person who only thought about being a slave and maid every day, and went to He Yuan to steal fruits for his master. ”

Tan Si leaned out, picked up the grate on the table, and slowly combed Lin's hair.

"Twenty-three years have passed, if the master is still in his teens, won't people suspect that you are a goblin."

Lin listened to Tan Si's words, and his face was undulating, revealing a trace of a woman's anger and laughter.

"As long as your mouth is sweet, you can speak well."

Tan Si laughed, "Master, girls and sons are all blessed people. You just need to take care of your body and enjoy your well-being. ”

Lin knew that Tan Si intended to relieve himself.

In the past ten years of ups and downs, she has always persuaded herself to be more bearish.

But the burden that pressed on her was something she could unload if she wanted to.

As the night deepened, Lin Xiu fell asleep under Tan Si's service.

Su Jingyan ordered Qi'er to invite Su Manzhen to have breakfast early tomorrow morning.

Su Zhixi sent Gu Nuo away, looking at the dark clouds and the moon outside the window for a long time.

In the hustle and bustle of Kyoto, everyone is staging their own calculations.
