Chapter 21: The Cold War
Ye Shaoqing looked at her fixedly, as if he was discerning a certain amount of truth in her words.
Lin Qingci was a little overwhelmed, thinking that he was going to do something else today.
The disparity in strength is too great, she feels that she can't resist, and decides to enjoy it, and she won't lose anyway.
He closed his eyes shyly: "I'm so scared!" You put out the candle first. ”
When the voice fell, the pain in her jaw disappeared suddenly, and her eyes quietly opened a little, only seeing Ye Shaoqing's generous back.
Lin Qingci: "......"
How to Fat Four?
Did he not understand or was he disgusted?
After doubting himself for two seconds, he cleared his throat: "I said I was a little scared and wanted to turn off the lights." ”
Ye Shaoqing paused, and with a slight wave of his long arm, the incense candle on the case was instantly extinguished, and the room fell into darkness.
I didn't say a word to her the whole time.
Lin Qingci: "......"
The little fist clenched and was ready to pound him, an inch away from his back. I only heard him say impatiently in a threatening tone: "If you are not restless, don't want to rest tonight." ”
Lin Qingci was a little embarrassed, and lowered his hand stupidly, and the moonlight outside shone into the room through the skylight, and the outline of the furnishings was faintly visible.
She looked up at the veil above her head until her eyelids fought.
When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn, and she was the only one in the room.
called Ning Xiang in, and asked, "Have you seen the eldest son?" ”
Ning Xiang took a comb and made Lin Qingci's hair neatly: "The eldest prince went out early in the morning, and he asked Miss to go and greet Mrs. by yourself, and the slave seemed to be a little unhappy when she saw him." Miss, are you and him having trouble again? ”
Lin Qingci raised her eyebrows, this girl listened to the corner: "Where do you see that he is unhappy?" ”
The man had a straight face all day long, frowning at most, and her joy and anger were invisible, and she really couldn't see through it with her twenty years of experience.
Ning Xiang stood up: "Slave maid...... The slave and maid also guessed. ”
Lin Qingci smiled: "Is there anything I can't know?" ”
Ning Xiang said: "In fact, when the slave maid was eating in the morning, I heard the cook complain that the eldest prince was uncertain, saying that last night the eldest prince instructed him to make a meal for our courtyard with spicy and no sugar, and today he told him to put more sugar and not spicy, and the lighter it is, the better." The slave and maid think about whether the eldest son is correcting you. ”
Their young lady likes spicy, and the eldest prince should have seen it, Xu originally wanted to be nice to her. But they were not interested, and offended him, so he was so angry that he went to the cook himself to confess.
Lin Qingci: "......"
This man with a small belly!
Yan'er is bad!
When reciting the scriptures, he pondered what kind of means to use to retaliate against Ye Shaoqing, but he was inattentive, and was wronged by Pang Zi several times in succession.
Stepping out of the Buddhist hall, Shen Qiurong pretended to be concerned and said, "Does my sister-in-law have something on her mind?" Whether it is a worry about the Chongyang banquet arranged by the wife of the Marquis of Yongxiao. ”
Lin Qingci's eyes swept past her, clasping her fists openly and kicking her legs secretly, this girl doesn't look like a good person.
looked at her for a long time: "Since my brother-in-law knows that I am worried about this matter, why didn't my wife push it for me when she sent the post?" ”
Shen Qiurong felt ridiculous: "Sister-in-law doesn't speak through her brain?" The post is not scattered by me. And who knows the sister-in-law's own wishes? In case I push it and you want to go again, what should I do? ”
Lin Qingci snorted coldly: "In that case, how can you be sure that I am worried about the Double Yang Banquet as soon as you open your mouth?" ”
Shen Qiurong was not in a hurry, and said lightly: "I am also tentatively asking, after all, my sister-in-law was fine yesterday, but today she is ......."
Shen Qiurong didn't continue, but the meaning was clear.
Lin Qingci looked at her clear water and hibiscus face, and couldn't wait to tear off this hypocritical face, and didn't smile: "That's really thank you brother and daughter-in-law for your concern." "Walk past her.
It was only in midday that Ye Shaoqing returned to the other courtyard. Approaching the bedroom door, I heard a slight sobbing sound in the room, and moved to the window, opened the window and looked in.
The corner of the quilt on the couch was next to the footrest, and the little man on the mattress was lying on his pillow, but his body was leaning inside.
Face outward, eyes closed, but tears on his face.
She was crying in her sleep, was she angry that he came back too late, or did she hate that the person next to her was not Weijun?
The hand hanging by his side was quietly clenched, and after a while, he turned around and left the courtyard.
Three days later, it was the Double Ninth Festival, because most of the powerful ladies in Beijing were there, Ning Xiang dressed Lin Qingci early.
I picked out a set of blue-edged plain robes, which were decorated with white gardenias, and wore them in a cloud bun, and only tied a blue ribbon at the root of the bun.
Ning Xiang said: "Miss, don't wear a hairpin, will it be too plain, today is an important occasion, if other young ladies see that you have no jewelry, and think that you are struggling after marriage, you should have a whisper when you are seen by Mrs." ”
Lin Qingzi is not used to wearing it, it is light and not gorgeous and noble, and it is attached to hanging warts.
At a glance, it looks too heavy, and it falls on the head, and I feel that my neck is going to be crooked: "I still don't want it, I wear more bracelets, and show off my wealth from time to time, it shouldn't attract gossip." ”
Ningxiang: "......"
"This ...... Okay, too. ”
Everything was ready, and Lin Qingci stepped out of the room.
The dazzling sunlight was so dazzling that she couldn't open her eyes and squinted at the sky.
She went to Ponzi to say hello again, where did Ye Shaoqing die?
She just refused to let him wipe her sweat, as for so many days without seeing anyone?
Did you find a goblin to relieve your boredom?
She said sourly: "Ning Xiang, you said that the eldest prince didn't come back for a few days, don't you think I'm not gentle and inconsiderate." ”
Ning Xiang looked strange: "Miss, are you hysterical?" The eldest prince obviously comes back every night, maybe it's too late, you don't know it. ”
Although she didn't have to be on duty at night, the maid she arranged would tell her about the situation in the other courtyard.
In fact, when the young lady got married, there was originally a teaching grandmother to follow. Later, for some reason, the lady did not let the grandmother come, and only told her and the other dowives to serve.
Lin Qingci was skeptical, and planned to wait for him tonight.
Ye Weijun didn't ride a horse this time, he also got into the carriage and sat on the left with Shen Qiurong.
Ponzi sat in the middle, and she was on the right, her face covered and twisted out the window.
Pang Zi said: "Qingzi, will Shaoqing go to Juyuan today?" ”
Lin Qingci was stunned when he heard Ponzi's voice now.
Ye Shaoqing didn't go to the main courtyard in the past few days, and her mother-in-law saw that she always had to talk endlessly, which made her feel very troubled.
Thinking about it carefully, she had mentioned it to him about the chrysanthemum garden, and he agreed to go at the time, thinking that he should not be able to speak as a general guarding the city.
nodded: "Go, but it may be a little later, recently he is arranging to return to the frontier, a little busy, and when I see him, I will ask him if he is free to greet his mother tomorrow." ”
It was impossible to find fault with this, and Pang Zi smiled: "That's good, that kid has a lot of hard time making snacks." I probably haven't been to this kind of occasion in the frontier, and my mother also wants him to see it. ”
Lin Qingci didn't think that Ye Shaoqing needed this kind of vassal and elegant insight.
But she is not easy to refute the words of the elders.
lowered her head and didn't speak, the carriage crossed the street, she turned back, lowered her head and clasped her fingers, and never looked up at Ye Weijun.
