The second wife, Li, lamented the injustice of fate, and at the same time remembered the oath of Jian Feiyang, the prince of Zhenguo, not to marry the daughter of the He family. - There is only one concubine in the He family's big house, if it is ......, the sister-in-law will be too late to have another daughter, and she will probably have to fill in the daughter of the second room......

In this way, his own room can be regarded as completely raising his eyebrows

At that time, He Ningxin didn't know anything about the second wife Li's calculations, but she just listened to her most trusted second aunt Li said that Jian Feiyang looked too murderous, and her father and mother were not good people. In the courtyard of the second aunt, I often saw the nephew and cousin of the second aunt. The little girl has been confined in the inner courtyard to grow up, when she first met a foreign man, she was born in the wind of a jade tree, gentle and petty, and slowly a heart was entrusted to the past......

Thinking of what happened at that time, Nie Wei and He Ningyu were both a little frightened. - Almost, the two of them became murderers and helpers, and killed a person.

"If you didn't do it, then how could my lobby sister fall into the pond? - I don't believe she jumped off by herself," He Ningyu couldn't help but ask again. She always thought that her cousin did it, and she was worried and scared for a long time, but the lobby sister was fine.

When Nie Wei heard that He Ningxin had actually fallen into the pond that day, he also frowned and pondered.

The maid who followed behind saw the two people in front of her standing under a big tree and talking, and they were a little uneasy. They know that the second wife is the most reluctant for the second girl to associate with the young master, a few subordinates, you look at me, I look at you, for fear that the second wife will be held accountable, and they will be the ones who will suffer when the time comes.

He Ningyu's eldest maid Xiangzhi looked at it from behind, hesitated for a long time, and slowly walked over to He Ningyu and Nie Wei.

Nie Wei happened to be facing that direction when he saw Xiangzhi coming over with a smile on his face. Nie Wei hurriedly whispered to He Ningyu: "Your maid is here, I'll go back." Be careful yourself. ”

He Ningyu didn't look back, he hurriedly took out a cyan purse from his sleeve pocket, stuffed it into Nie Wei's hand, and said, "Here are five taels of silver, which is my private money, and my father and mother don't know it." You take it back and have a good meal with your aunt, who has lost a lot of weight lately. Let's go to the store and buy some good ingredients and make clothes. ”

Nie Wei held his purse tightly, nodded, and said in a low voice: "I'm leaving, you have to have more eyes and look at you more." - I always thought she was too smart. ”

He Ningyu winked at him with a smile and said loudly, "Got it." Let's go, my aunt is still waiting at home."

Seeing that He Ningyu was smiling like a flower, Nie Wei's mood suddenly brightened, and he also replied loudly: "Say goodbye to my aunt on my behalf." After saying this, he turned around and walked briskly towards the corner gate on the other side of the second gate.

Xiangzhi walked a few steps quickly, caught up with He Ningyu, and then looked in the direction of Nie Wei with his feet, and asked with concern, "What did the girl give to the young master?" ”

He Ningyu was upset when she saw Xiangzhi's apricot eyes and peach cheeks, slapped her with her backhand, and said angrily: "Which eye did you see me giving something to others?" - What nonsense are you talking about? ”

Xiangzhi didn't watch out for He Ningyu's sudden move, and he was suddenly slapped to the ground and fell on his ass. With a snort, her new muslin skirt seemed to have been torn off.

Xiangzhi raised his head and was about to speak, when he caught a glimpse of someone coming in from the second door, and his face immediately changed from a good thing to a good woman, and he cried: "Girl...... What mistake did the slave and maid make, and the girl should punish the slave and maid like this? ”

He Ningyu saw that Xiangzhi's face suddenly changed, as if there was someone behind him, and he suddenly looked back, and just saw Jian Feiyang, the prince of Zhenguo, with a small servant, followed by a mother-in-law in the big house, coming in from the second door without squinting, and walked over here.

He Ningyu was a little uncomfortable when he saw Jian Feiyang. She just broke up with her cousin today, she didn't have the heart to get close to Jian Feiyang, walked up to Xiangzhi in a few steps, kicked her lightly, and scolded in a low voice: "Hurry up and sit on the ground, isn't it nice to look good?" - Get the hell out of here."

Xiangzhi hurriedly covered his head with his sleeves, quickly got up from the ground, and stood behind He Ningyu.

On the path leading to the inner courtyard, He Ningyu was standing in the middle of the road, blocking the way for Jian Feiyang and his party to move forward.

The mother-in-law who led Jian Feiyang in hurriedly curtsied to He Ningyu, and said with a smile: "I've seen the second girl." Second girl, is this going out? ”

He Ningyu faced the direction of going up to the second gate, and the woman didn't want to tell her to give way, so she had to hint in a roundabout way.

Jian Feiyang stopped and stood there expressionlessly, not looking this way.

He Ningyu glanced at Jian Feiyang quickly, and was a little hesitant to talk.

Xiangzhi gently tugged at the corner of her clothes behind her, and reminded her like a mosquito: "Second girl, second wife has instructed ......"

"I've seen Grandpa Guo." He Ningyu finally reluctantly saluted and stepped aside.

The mother-in-law who led the way hurriedly turned around and smiled at Jian Feiyang: "Grandpa Guo, please come here." ”

Jian Feiyang strode past He Ningyu and his party.

The incense branch standing behind He Ningyu was in a hurry: such a great opportunity, the second girl is going to miss it again.

Xiangzhi was unwilling in the end, and suddenly asked in a manic voice behind He Ningyu: "Dare to ask Grandpa Guo, it's so late, is there something important to come to our inner courtyard?" ”

When Jian Feiyang heard this delicate voice, he felt that the hairs on his body were standing upside down, and he felt a sense of creeping, so he quickly quickened his pace and walked towards Mrs. Xu's main courtyard.

The mother-in-law who led the way in front was a few steps behind, turned her head with a gloomy face, and glanced at He Ningyu several times with a dead eye.

He Ningyu was seen by the mother-in-law's face to be red and white, and he couldn't help but turn around and slap the incense branch again, and reprimanded: "If you want to die, get away and die-don't tire me"

After saying this, He Ningyu returned to his yard angrily.

The second wife, Li, heard that He Ningyu was back and came to see her in person. I saw her sitting on the bed with a puffed up, looking impatient.

Li sighed, sat on the edge of He Ningyu's bed, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with you?" Who made our girl angry? ”

He Ningyu said hatefully: "Who else can there be?" Isn't it the of the incense stick? ”

When Li heard that it was Xiangzhi, he was stunned and hurriedly said: "Xiangzhi is just a maid, and I can't do anything if I am angry with her." Come, I'll let the small kitchen make snow clam bird's nest porridge for supper today, and let someone serve you a bowl later. After coaxing her a few more words, He Ningyu felt better.

After He Ningyu was settled, the second wife Li came out of He Ningyu's yard and ordered someone to call the incense sticks over for questioning.

Xiangzhi's pretty face was swollen and deformed, and she knelt in front of her second wife, Li, crying into tears.

Li Shi looked at the incense branch with some annoyance, and said in a long voice: "Okay, these tones are enough in front of me." Wipe away your tears, I have something to ask you. ”

Xiangzhi hurriedly stopped her tears, wiped it with a handkerchief, and then said to Li Shi with some sobs: "Second wife, please ask." ”

Li sat on the Luohan bed in the warm pavilion in his room, holding an enamel hand stove in his hand for a while, and then asked perfunctorily: "What's wrong with your face?" ”

Xiangzhi felt aggrieved when she thought of this, and she didn't want to tell the second wife about her biological daughter, so she had to bow her head and say, "The slave was careless and knocked on the doorpost." ”

Li Shi was originally in a depressed mood, but when he heard this, he laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't walk long, you can still knock both sides of your face, you are really a genius." ”

Xiangzhi laughed awkwardly before saying, "The slave maid just followed the second girl to send the young master out, and on the way back, I met the grandfather of the country." ”

Li Shi really became interested, sat up straight, sent everyone in the house out, and then asked in a low voice, "It's so late, do you know what Grandpa Guo is doing at our house?" ”

Xiangzhi's kneeling body leaned forward slightly, looked up at Li Shi and whispered: "The slave maid wants to ask, but the second girl has been blocking there, and the slave maid is not easy to speak." ”

Li frowned slightly, glanced at Xiangzhi, and said angrily: "Second girl, didn't I let you take a good look at her?" ”

Xiangzhi thought about it for a while, and felt that there were some things, so he couldn't say it, so he boldly said to the Li family: "This is reasonable, and the slave maid should say it, but the second girl really wants the second wife to take care of it." Today, the second girl sent the young master out, and the two of them talked for a while under the tree not far from the second gate. When the young master left, the second girl was still reluctant......"

Before the words fell, there was a "snap", and Xiangzhi received another slap in the face, but Li couldn't help but slap her too.

"You cheap hoof, and then your mouth is full of nonsense, and you tear your mouth - what are you reluctant to say, can you talk about our second girl? I think you're itchy with your skin, aren't you?" Li scolded sharply, pointing to the incense sticks.

The old wound of the incense branch had not healed, and a new wound was added, and the pain on his face was unbearable, so he had to hurriedly lower his head, and a sharp cold light flashed under his eyes.

Seeing Xiangzhi bowing her head, Li Shi looked docile, and warned her in a deep voice: "I asked you to follow the second girl and mention her at any time, but I didn't let you climb on her head and be the master-you told me that there was a way to let the second girl marry into the Zhenguo Mansion instead of the eldest girl, and I saw that you had some knowledge, so I promoted you." Don't you know that if there is something wrong with the second girl, I will let you all bury her and want to climb another high branch, and it depends on whether you have that life."

Xiangzhi's head drooped lower and lower, and her heart was very unfair: it was obviously the second wife's wishful thinking, trying to let the second girl He Ningyu marry the eldest girl He Ningxin to the Zhenguo Mansion, but she just saw her mind and pushed the boat down the river, so why was it all on her head?

But Xiangzhi was a little scared. In any case, the second wife and the second girl are masters, and they are still slaves. Only on that day...... Xiangzhi secretly clenched his fists in his sleeves, he must stick to himself and his children, and he will not be a slave for the rest of his life

Li talked about Xiangzhi for a long time, then stopped to take a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said to Xiangzhi: "Go back and take a good look at the second girl." Report something immediately. ”

The incense branch responded softly, kowtowed to the second wife, and then returned to the second girl's yard.

Over there, Jian Feiyang followed the mother-in-law of the big house to Mrs. Xu's courtyard, first talked to Lord He for a while, and then personally took out a pink-green bronzing invitation, respectfully presented it to Mrs. Xu, and said, "Auntie, this is the post of the Three Flowers Festival in March of the Anjun Palace, and I also ask my aunt to take Miss He over to enjoy her face." ”

The flower festival of Anjun Wangfu is a view of the capital. Every year, the princess of Anjun presides over the meeting, and the attendees are the first-class ladies and ladies in the capital. There are not only famous flowers in the city, but also beauties in the country. Needless to say, it is naturally the most desirable occasion for all the noble ladies in the capital, as well as the high-ranking gentlemen.

At this time, the invitation card of the Anjun Royal Mansion is priced at 10,000 taels of silver in the black market, which is naturally priceless, because no one will be willing to exchange such an invitation for silver. - Even if someone gets lost in their minds and wants to sell it. However, the invitations of the Anjun Palace, I am afraid that if they are destined to be sold, they will all be detained by Tiqi and live in the edict prison for a few days.

Jian Feiyang also personally delivered posts two years ago, but at that time, He Ningxin's heart was not on him, he always pretended to be sick and delayed, and never went.

Mrs. Xu took the post and looked at it, and said with some guilt: "You have a heart, send it every year." I'm afraid she won't be able to go again this year. ”

Jian Feiyang was a little disappointed: I thought this year was different......

After being silent for a while, Jian Feiyang looked at Mrs. Xu with something to say.

Mrs. Xu didn't wait for Jian Feiyang to speak, she knew what he was going to ask, and explained to him with a smile: "Don't worry about it. I won't let her go this time. She's in trouble and she's going to be grounded for a month. ”

Jian Feiyang's heart was overjoyed, and he sank again. After thinking about it carefully, I really couldn't think of He Ningxin's well-behaved appearance, how could she do such a serious thing as getting into trouble and being grounded, and finally asked, "Auntie, what's wrong with Miss He?" ”。
