CHAPTER XXIV

Xing was originally going to go directly to the garden, but when he pinched the letter in his sleeve, he remembered Ming Shu.

It was unbelievable that she had written such a letter to her.

But Mingshu just fell into the water, and she didn't want to invite people. He shook his head and went straight into the garden.

……

In the evening, Xing came to pick up Hongxuan to see Mingshu, the little girl didn't soak in any water, she changed her dry clothes and was fine, and she sat in front of the bookcase at this time to copy the small characters.

The lights were dim, illuminating a half-rounded side face. Mingshu wrote seriously, and a half-worn shirt was draped over her shoulders, which also seemed to be glorious and self-reliant.

When Xing saw this scene, he became more and more surprised in his heart, this little lady was indeed outstanding.

"My cousin is writing?"

Mingshu put down her pen and nodded, "Cousin-in-law sit." So he called the maid to serve tea.

"Thank you so much for today's events." Xing's temperament was soft, and he smiled especially at this time, "But there is one more thing, I have to ask you." ”

Mingshu took a small silver spoon, picked out the red dates in the tea, and chewed slowly. The round cheeks puffed out one after another, and he listened very carefully, and only after swallowing did he say: "Don't worry, cousin, I will never say anything about this matter." ”

Seeing that Xing was still hesitant, he added, "If I want to make trouble, I don't have to tell you this...... I just thought that the earlier the investigation would have been clearer, and there would have been less gibberish and nonsense. ”

Xing also felt that Mingshu was obedient and polite, so he smiled and almost believed Mingshu's words.

The two gossiped for a while, and then they got acquainted a little.

"You have such a good temperament, but the old lady ......" Xing did not continue.

These words made Mingshu's heart skip a beat, she hadn't seen her grandmother for a long time.

I was angry before, thinking that if I didn't see it, I wouldn't see it, and it was better not to see it for the rest of my life. But now that I'm calming down, I can't really mess with my grandmother.

That's A-Niang's dearest and most beloved person.

It is also his own relatives.

Mingshu put down the tea bowl in her hand and said softly, "Is the old lady's body better?" ”

Xing Shi glanced at Mingshu with pity and said, "It's much better." After thinking about it carefully, he said, "I think you are extremely filial, so you might as well come with me tomorrow to say goodbye." I'm here, and the old lady's temperament isn't so great. ”

These words coincided with what Mingshu thought, she smiled gratefully, and said to Xing's family: "Thank you, cousin-in-law!" ”

Xing smiled softly, telling Ming Shu to be polite.

The two gossiped for a while, and it wasn't until it was extremely dark that Xing left.

Mingshu's heart couldn't calm down.

She rarely thinks about these things these days, and now when Xing says it, her heart is in a mess.

In the previous life, the Li family and the Gu family must have investigated the cause of their parents' deaths, but none of them were found. Although there are a few more clues in this life, there has been no news for so long, and it is estimated that it is almost impossible to find out.

Now they are willing to check, and if they can, they will give up just like in their previous lives.

But she's too young now to do anything on her own. He doesn't have his own power, and he has to ask others for everything.

If she has her own henchmen and her own people, she can help herself do what she wants to do. Then you don't have to look at others, and you can't do anything yourself.

This thought together is like a fire ignited in Mingshu's heart, burning his heart and mouth.

In that way, she will be able to make decisions for herself, and she will be able to stand up straight, without being bullied and manipulated by others.

The tragic memories of her previous life are still vivid, and she is unwilling to die and repeat the mistakes of the past.

She had to live on her own and be independent.

If there is no more wind and rain, I can bear it.

Mingshu lifted the quilt and got out of bed, got up and poured herself a cup of cold tea. After drinking it all, I felt calmer.

On the second day, Mingshu got up early in the morning.

Li Shuangyan is sick, and according to etiquette, she has to visit. As for the old lady, everyone went to say hello in the morning at about the same time, and there were some things that were hard to say.

It couldn't be better to follow Xing's to say hello at night.

Li Shuangyan's fever subsided last night, and when Mingshu arrived, she had only taken medicine, and she was sitting cross-legged on the Luohan Collapse to pick up candied fruits to eat.

As soon as he looked up and saw Mingshu, his face was not good-looking.

Mingshu didn't want to worry about this little thing, so she didn't say a few words of greeting without being salty, even if she finished the cutscene.

When Mingshu was about to leave, Li Shuangyan shouted to stop, and said in an arrogant and sharp tone: "You did it on purpose." And there was a mist in his eyes.

The little girl is thin-skinned, and she can't stand the embarrassing situation of being calculated by the calculating people, and she has lost her face for a while.

She thought that Mingshu deliberately let her go ahead and caused her to fall into the water. After all, only Mingshu was in front of her at that time.

"I just thought that you should be able to avoid your little tricks...... I'm not a fairy, and I don't know if you poured tung oil or put a praying mantis. ”

Mingshu is also angry.

Li Shuangyan just stared at Mingshu hatefully, holding on to her self-esteem, refusing to think that she was wrong.

"Then you can rest." Mingshu paused, "What's the matter with the railing?" If we didn't have that railing, we wouldn't have fallen overboard. ”

If you don't fall into the water, you will fall at most.

That's really a small trick, and it doesn't hurt. After a good-natured ridicule, it passed with a change of skirt.

But if you fall into the water, you might die. This is no small matter.

Li Shuangyan reacted, and she was also afraid, but she still rolled her eyes at Mingshu with her neck, "Don't bother you!" ”

Mingshu felt that she couldn't talk anymore this day, so she shut up, and sure enough, she didn't bother to leave.

stared at Mingshu's back for a long time, and was so angry that he smashed the sour plum in his hand, didn't speak, and sulked on the pillow.

When she came back from school at the female gentleman's place, Ming Shu first bathed and changed her clothes, and packed herself up properly, and then went to Xing's courtyard to wait for the Xing family.

After experiencing such an incident, Xing liked Mingshu quite a lot.

She took Mingshu's hand and went to the old lady's yard together.

"Cousin-in-law, have you heard of my mother's Mama Du? I don't know if the old man is okay now. Mingshu asked.

Xing thought in his heart, a while ago, the old lady gave the sewing room to a mother-in-law surnamed Du, and the time was about the same as the time when Mrs. Gu left.

It's probably the grandmother who came to report the news from Mrs. Gu's side.

Xing said: "There is a Du Mama in the sewing room, probably that's it." That grandmother is calm and steady, and now she is doing well. ”

Mingshu stopped talking.

Xing felt that Mingshu was very kind and nostalgic like this, so he said more, "The old lady values that grandmother very much, you don't have to worry about it." ”

Mingshu smiled slightly and nodded.

In her previous life, Mama Du also stayed in the Li family. Later, when she was forced to marry Lin Chao, it was Mama Du who invited herself to follow her.

But on the eve of her marriage, Mama Du was "sick".
