Chapter 37 is not simple
In the next two days, Long Xuanling took me and Kang Ning out of the city during the day, and visited the lake to admire the moon at night, and was considerate to me, if I didn't know that Long Xuanling had been secretly looking for another woman, I might have the illusion that he had fallen in love with me.
Soon, Long Xuanling reorganized his army and set off for Liangcheng.
I personally embroidered the word "peace" on the inner lining of his military uniform, and carried Kangning out of the city to see him off.
Before Long Xuanling got into the car, he also kissed me and Kang Ning's foreheads, persuaded me to go home quickly, and told me not to go out of the house these days.
"When is Daddy coming back?" Kang Ning looked at Long Xuanling, very reluctant.
"Soon, Ning'er is obedient, will Daddy come back and bring you sugar gourds?" Long Xuanling gently pinched Kang Ning's round little face.
Kang Ning nodded obediently, and Long Xuanling leaned into the car.
Sitting in the car, he waved at me and motioned for me to go home.
I looked at him and nodded yes, but I stood there and watched their car fade away until it was completely out of sight, and I was still stunned.
"Miss, go back." After a long time, Xiaohe couldn't help but say to me.
I looked at the already empty front, hugged Kangning and got into another car, and went back to the Shuai Mansion.
Because Vice General Liu left with Long Xuanling, now this handsome mansion is taken care of by me alone.
I arranged for the kitchen to cook the meals, and sent three maids to serve the eldest lady.
However, the eldest lady was still angry and didn't want to go out of the house to eat at all.
"Fat sister-in-law, you accompany Ning'er to dinner." I motioned for the fat monk to accompany Kangning, and I personally delivered the meal to the eldest lady.
Xiaohe walked with me to the room where the eldest lady lived temporarily, the door of the eldest lady's wing room was open, and when I walked to the door, I saw what the eldest lady was talking to Zhou Xuanling.
"Xiaowan!" Zhou Xuanling saw me first and immediately called out.
I pursed my lips and smiled, went into the house with the food, and laid the dishes in front of the eldest lady.
"Mother, I heard that you didn't eat anything this morning, and you didn't move a bite of the lunch meal, how can your body stand it if you go on like this?" After I finished speaking, I took the dishes and chopsticks, and sat down to eat with the eldest lady.
The eldest lady frowned and looked at me.
I sandwiched fish for her, put it in her bowl, and ate it myself.
"Can you still swallow this rice?" The eldest lady looked at me with a gloomy face.
"Mother, I told me everything, Qi Ye explained to me, the woman he was looking for is just one of his old friends, don't think about it." After I finished speaking, I served her lotus root pork rib soup again.
The eldest lady looked at me, and her face was already pale with anger.
"Xiao Wan! You were really deceived by him badly, this Mu Qiye, when his mother confronted him, he never denied it, don't you understand? The eldest lady said, and took my hand: "Is it difficult, do you really want other women to enter this house and compete with you for a husband?" ”
"Xiaowan, you are simple-minded, your mother is really worried, now that Mu Qi goes out to fight at night, leaving you here, my mother thinks this is an opportunity, you should go with your mother, go back to Jincheng, and the book will be sent to him." The eldest lady must have thought about it for a long time in the past few days, and felt that going back with her was the only way out.
A woman like the eldest lady who has traveled across the ocean has long since abandoned polygamy, but Master Zhao has a strong net worth and countless flowers and butterflies around her, which makes the eldest lady miserable.
Now, seeing that I was about to repeat the same mistakes, she had to pull me back.
"Mother, don't worry about me and praying for the night, this soup is going to be cold, you drink it while it's hot." I handed the spoon to the eldest lady.
The eldest lady directly smashed the spoon on the ground, and with a crisp sound, the spoon was smashed.
"Auntie, don't be angry, let me talk to Xiaowan." Zhou Xuanling hurriedly got up and supported the eldest lady who was trembling a little angrily.
I don't want to talk to Zhou Xuanling, in my opinion, there is no need for this at all.
I just want to help the eldest lady sit on the side to rest and calm down her excitement.
But the eldest lady pushed my hand away, motioned to Xiaohe, and took her to the courtyard to breathe, Xiaohe immediately nodded, and in this room, only me and Zhou Xuanling were left.
"Xiaowan, cousin doesn't know what you've done wrong, it will make you suddenly change your mind." Zhou Xuanling looked at me and said, "In the past, you were always very clingy to me, and you were willing to marry me. ”
"Once upon a time, I was just a fool, and my cousin would believe even what a fool said?" I frowned and looked at him.
Why would he, such a handsome and talkative young man, want to marry a fool?
"I believe, Xiaowan, as long as you are willing to leave Mu Qiye, I can take you to Liuyang immediately." Zhou Xuanling said very firmly.
When I heard this, I immediately shook my head: "Cousin, no need, I will always stay by Qiye's side." ”
"What kind of ecstasy did Mu Qiye give you? You are so affectionate to him? Zhou Xuanling's voice has improved a lot, and he has already walked in front of me.
I saw that his eyes were not good, and I hurriedly took half a step back.
"Xiaowan, I said, you have to listen to me." Zhou Xuanling said, directly spread out his hand, a Western pocket watch, fell from his palm, swaying slightly in front of my eyes.
"Xiaowan, you said that you like your cousin the most, right?" Zhou Xuanling's voice was extremely low, and I looked at the pocket watch in his hand that was constantly shaking gently, and I actually felt that my mind was starting to become a little chaotic.
"Xiaowan, you only love me." Zhou Xuanling said softly and continued.
I shook my head slightly, but my mind went blank.
"Xiaowan, look at me, I'm your favorite cousin." Zhou Xuanling said, and a hand was about to caress my cheek.
"Mother!"
And when his hand was about to fall on my cheek, Corning's crisp sentence of "mother" instantly smoothed my originally chaotic thoughts and pulled me back to reality from the chaos.
"Mother, Master bullied me and snatched my chicken legs." Kangning pouted and ran into the wing room with an aggrieved face.
I glanced at Kang Ning in a trance, and then looked at Zhou Xuanling, and immediately realized that he had cast some spell on me just now. Why did I feel like I was being controlled by him just now?
"Fangcai, what did you do to me?" frowned, staring at Zhou Xuanling.
Zhou Xuanling was stunned for a moment, revealing an innocent expression: "Cousin, I just want to give you this Western pocket watch, didn't you always want my pocket watch in the past?" ”
Zhou Xuanling looked at me, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an extremely modest smile, but this smile made me feel creepy, and my intuition told me that he was not simple.
