Chapter 26: A Raccoon Dog
With Xun Xuan outside to help delay time, Yin Chen climbed over the wall in three steps and left Hanyunju in two steps.
Yin Chen had just come out of Anfu, but he saw a graceful man standing under the courtyard wall, the man was dressed in an ice blue straight brocade suit, his eyes were like vast stars, deep and bright, and a piece of clear and transparent jade hung around his waist, showing his dignity all over his body.
"Lord Wang!" Yin Chen hurriedly said respectfully.
"Not noticed?" Jing Ying quickly turned the jade wrench on her fingertips, her eyebrows and eyes raised slightly, and her tone was slightly lazy.
"Miss Xun covered for me."
Jing Ying turned around slowly, and a bewildering smile appeared in her starry eyes: "She agreed to our request?" ”
"Miss Xun asked you to come and talk to her in person."
Jing Ying's eyebrows moved slightly, and she was silent for a long time, and then chuckled: "Her style of doing things is very similar to her sister, and she is cautious." ”
"Lord Wang, you have just arrived at the door, why don't you come forward to say hello?" Yin Chen followed behind Jing Ying and walked towards the mouth of the alley.
"When the time comes, we'll see you." Jing Ying waved her wide sleeved robe, and the figure disappeared at the end of the deep alley in a dashing manner.
……
At this moment, in Hanyunju, Mrs. Xing had already walked to the gate of the courtyard with the support of Mama Lin and An Yixin.
Xun Xuan hurriedly greeted him, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile: "Isn't the old lady already resting?" How did you get up again? ”
"I can't sleep because of the bad things during the day, so I want to get up and walk around," Mrs. Xing stepped forward to hold Xun Xuan's fingers and said kindly, "It's still the third girl who reminded me, I just remembered that you still have burns on your hands, so I rushed over to take a look, didn't bother you, right?" ”
Xun Xuan glanced at An Yixin, who was standing beside Mrs. Xing, and saw her standing respectfully on the side, looking docile and well-behaved.
"How so? Ah Zhi can't wait for her grandmother to come to see me every day," as she spoke, Xun Xuan hugged Mrs. Xing's arm with her hand and said obediently, "Since they have all come out, it is better for Ah Zhi to accompany her grandmother to the back garden for a walk." ”
"Grandmother's body is not good, go to the back garden so late, and then tired grandmother," An Yixin followed, holding Mrs. Xing's other arm, and said softly, "Why don't you go to Hanyunju and sit down, I heard that the peony flowers in my cousin's yard are blooming just right!" ”
"My little yard, what's there to see? It's just that the maids were all sent down by me to rest, and my grandmother went for fear that there would be no one to serve her, and I was worried that she would be neglected. Xun Xuan said.
Old Madam Xing looked at the two girls snuggling up to her side, and smiled happily: "It's okay, I'm just coming to see you, see what you need to add here, and I'll ask Mama Lin to help you buy it when I go back." ”
"It's really my grandmother worried, Ah Zhi doesn't lack anything here." Xun Xuan responded obediently.
"Don't even stand outside, let's go inside and talk!" Mama Lin had already entered the house and asked her subordinates to light the lanterns in the yard.
Xun Xuan quietly followed Mrs. Xing's side, thinking in her heart that the time she had delayed for Yin Chen should be enough for him to leave Anfu.
As soon as a group of people entered the courtyard, they saw An Yixin looking around in the courtyard as if they were looking for something.
"Third cousin, what are you looking for?" Xun Xuan saw it in her eyes, but asked knowingly.
An Yixin made a move, quickly made up a statement, and then said with a smile: "I heard that the flowers in my cousin's yard are blooming beautifully, I'm looking at the flowers!" ”
"It's very dark outside, I'm afraid I can't see it clearly at night, the third cousin should hurry into the house, and come back tomorrow if you have time." After Xun Xuan finished speaking, she didn't care about An Yixin, turned around and followed Mrs. Xing into the house.
An Yixin walked around the courtyard again, but she didn't even find a figure, her angry face changed, and then she reluctantly entered the house.
In the house, Mrs. Xing was asking Mama Lin to pick out the ointment and wipe the burned area of Xun Xuan, and when she turned her head to see An Yixin entering the house with a gloomy face, she couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with the third girl?" The face didn't look quite right. ”
An Yixin has been weak since she was a child, and she usually has to lie on the couch for many days when she has a little headache and brain fever.
Fortunately, An Yixin is a smart person, she has been close to Mrs. Xing since she was a child, and among the young ladies in Anfu, she is the most loved by Mrs. Xing.
Old Madam Xing naturally took extra care of her body.
An Yixin couldn't answer Mrs. Xing's question for a while, and she hesitated for a long time before she said: "I was in the yard and met a cockroach, and I was scared." ”
Old Madam Xing breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this: "What should I do, it turned out to be a cockroach that caused the trouble." ”
An Yixin exhaled and sighed: "My body is really not angry, I have been timid since I was a child, and I can't stand the fright, I remember when I was eight years old, I was scared by a mouse and lay on the couch for half a month, when Mingyuan's cousin was still there, I heard about it, and sprinkled my Fuliu Ju with rat poison inside and outside that night." ”
At the mention of An Mingyuan, Old Madam Xing's generous face suddenly had a little more vicissitudes and sadness.
An Mingyuan is the eldest son of An Jin, the eldest son of An Fu, born intelligent, full of poetry and books at a young age, and died of poisoning at the age of fourteen due to eating something by mistake.
It was from then on that the eldest lady of Anfu, Qin, fell ill due to excessive sadness, and then there were successive changes in the family, and now her body is getting worse and worse.
First of all, the eldest grandson died early, and then An Yunwei, who was the Duchess of Wuguo, committed suicide in prison, and then the queen mother Xun Xuan, who was the granddaughter, died of illness, and the white-haired person sent the black-haired person.
Xun Xuan stretched out her hand and patted Mrs. Xing's shoulder, and comforted: "Grandmother, don't be sad, an optimistic person like your eldest cousin must not be able to see you so uncomfortable." ”
"Miss Biao is right, the eldest young master is so filial to you, if you know that you are sad for him again, I don't know how to blame myself in my heart!" Mama Lin also opened her mouth to convince her.
Old Madam Xing was sad for a while, then wiped her tears, and did not stay in Hanyun for long, so she led everyone away.
An Yixin watched Mrs. Xing and her party walk away, only then did she turn her eyes to look at Xun Xuan in the house, and her tone instantly became indifferent: "My cousin is really powerful, it is obvious that you are the one who has a private meeting with a man, but you easily put the blame on the second sister's head." ”
Xun Xuan sat on the chair quietly and said lightly: "Is the third cousin stupid by the cockroach?" actually said such strange words, Ah Zhi couldn't understand it at all. ”
An Yixin's eyebrows were sinky, and she no longer had the gentleness and delicacy of the past: "Cousin Xun doesn't have to pretend to be innocent in front of me, you are just a poisonous snake wearing a mask of hypocrisy, in fact, there is not much difference between you and me." ”
Xun Xuan's indifferent eyes gradually turned cold, and her expression quickly became deeper, she had no intention of listening to An Yixin anymore, got up and walked towards the back room: "It's getting late, I'm going to rest, the third cousin should go back early." ”
"You and I are just a raccoon dog, we are just using the old lady's love for us to achieve our own goals, your filial piety, your empathy, are just a trick to frame others, Xun Zhi, you are not worthy of anyone's love, let alone Zhu Zixuan!"
An Yixin didn't care about the vague anger on Xun Xuan's face, she just said her words with a hideous face.
Xun Xuan's footsteps towards the back room paused, only to see her turn slightly, her cold eyes were like a knife cutting someone's throat, and she looked at An Yixin fixedly, with a sneer on her face: "You and me?" Tar someone with the same brush? ”
An Yixin spread her hands and looked at Xun Xuan mockingly: "Did I say something wrong?" ”
Xun Xuan squinted, hurriedly walked in front of An Yixin, and slapped An Yixin's face with a wave of her hand: "What qualifications do you have to compare with me?" You are not as ruthless as me, you are not as ruthless as me, you are not as good as me in terms of means, and you are even worse than me in terms of filial piety to the old lady! ”
"You...... You ......" An Yixin was unprepared to receive Xun Xuan's slap, she was so angry that she couldn't speak, and she was about to hit her backhand.
But Xun Xuan had already prepared, and as soon as she raised her hand, she flipped An Yixin's whole person to the ground, she sneered and squatted down, and pinched An Yixin's cheek with her slender fingers: "Look, my weak third cousin is really pitiful now, it's a pity, your hands don't even have the strength to hold a pen, do you still want to beat me?" ”
"You...... How dare you hit me! Aren't you afraid that I will sue you in front of the old lady? An Yixin roared angrily.
"If I want to sue you, I'll sue you, since I dare to beat you, I naturally have a way to get out, so I don't have to worry about you," after that, Xun Xuan Huoran shook off An Yixin, stood up, and looked down at the other party indifferently, "Today you used the death of cousin Mingyuan to deliberately stimulate the old lady, and wanted to use the old lady to blackmail me, don't think that I didn't see your careful thoughts, warn you for the last time, stay away from the old lady!" ”
An Yixin sneered, followed by an almost crazy laugh: "What? Are you scared? That's right, I just want to use the old lady to contain you, I just deliberately want to make the old lady sad, I want you to understand that all the emotions of the old lady are under my control, no one in the world knows her better than me, the old lady is the gun in my hand, she will target whoever I want her to target! ”
When An Yixin was making a big speech, Xun Xuan suddenly waved her sleeves and swept the incense burner on the table towards An Yixin.
only heard An Yixin's scream, and the incense burner smashed on An Yixin's thigh.
An Yixin's face turned pale in pain, and she glared at Xun Xuan angrily: "Xun Zhi...... How dare you? ”
"Why wouldn't I dare? If you dare to go crazy in front of me, then I will let you know that I am even crazier than you, today is just a warning, if you have the ability, you can use a hair of the old lady to try? I think it's not just an incense burner that will be smashed on you! ”
