After Wang Jing came back in the afternoon, Sanniang went to Wang Jing's courtyard and sent someone to Xicui Courtyard to invite Wang Zhang. said that the fifth young master invited him to come over to play chess.

In less than two quarters of an hour, Wang Zhang came.

When I entered the house, I didn't seem surprised to see Sanniang.

The brothers and sisters greeted each other, and Wang Jing sent out all the people who were waiting, saying that he didn't want anyone to disturb him.

"Sister?" As soon as the person withdrew, Wang Jing touched his head and looked at Sanniang and said, "What is the matter with you looking for the second brother?" I have sent them out as you commanded me. ”

Wang Zhang looked at Sanniang.

Sanniang nodded: "It was indeed I who asked the fifth brother to invite the second brother over." ”

Wang Jing looked at this and then turned his head to look at that, a little confused.

"Second brother, do you know what happened in the house recently?" Sanniang looked at Wang Zhang, and did not beat around the bush.

Wang Zhang thought thoughtfully: "The third sister is referring to the rumors of haunting in the mansion recently?" ”

Sanniang gently pinched a black marble chess piece from the yellow-flowered pear chess jar carved into a pumpkin-shape, looked at it carefully but smiled silently.

Wang Zhang was stunned, and then frowned slightly: "Could it be that the third sister suspects that these are the movements made by our second room?" ”

Sanniang raised her head and glanced at Wang Zhang seriously, and saw that his stunned expression did not seem to be fake, so she lowered her eyes and said lightly: "Sanniang believes in the second uncle and second aunt, the eldest sister and the second brother. "But don't say that you trust the people in the second room.

Wang Zhang opened his mouth when he heard this, but he couldn't say anything.

He had heard his mother mention this matter, and he naturally did not believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, but he believed that this matter had nothing to do with his father and mother. Just asked him to assure that this matter had absolutely nothing to do with the second room, but he couldn't say it.

"I'll keep an eye on it." Wang Zhang finally nodded and did not argue.

Sanniang smiled, this second brother is really a smart and knowledgeable person, if he can cooperate in the future, he will not lack the necessary characteristics of a good ally.

"Sanniang doesn't care about this matter, Sanniang is a small force. Just like this chess piece, it can only be driven with the waves, so Sanniang's greatest hope is only that she and her brother can not be affected, and the second brother must be able to understand. Sanniang spread the chess pieces in her hand in the palm of her hand. A round and shiny chess piece on the white and slender hand, a strong contrast, and the ultimate beauty.

People who are good at painting have an unconscious paranoid preference for beauty. Wang Zhang's gaze was unconsciously attracted.

Sanniang tilted her hand slightly, and pointed her finger towards the filling mouth of the Huanghuali chess jar. With a clear sound like interlocking green beads, the black chess pieces slid into the chess jar: "Today, let my brother find the second brother, in fact, it was for what the second brother said to Sanniang last time." ”

Wang Zhang raised his head when he heard this, and his eyes shifted from Sanniang's hand: "What does the third sister mean?" ”

Sanniang tilted her head and smiled, revealing two smiling pear vortices: "Let the second aunt go to grandmother again to ask for it in a few days." ”

"Mother has begged last time, but grandmother has not ......agreed," said this, Wang Zhang suddenly realized: "The third sister is saying." Grandmother her? ”

"People's minds always change, maybe my grandmother has figured it out?" Wang Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he naturally understood that it was not so simple that his grandmother suddenly figured it out.

"Thank you third sister for coming forward to help, thank you Zhang." As he spoke, he made a deep gesture to Sanniang, his posture was free and easy, and he was not rigid.

Sanniang hurriedly avoided her body: "The second brother is serious, Sanniang said that day, Sanniang, like the second brother, also hopes that the eldest sister will be fine." If you are incompetent, you will not be able to do anything, but if you can help, you will naturally help. This is true whether the second brother comes to ask for it or not. ”

Wang Zhang smiled slightly when he heard this, he was already born with gentle eyebrows. At this moment, the worries of the past few days have taken a turn for the better, and he naturally laughs sincerely, which makes him more amorous.

"In any case, the third sister's love, Zhang wrote it down."

Sanniang and Wang Jing sent Wang Zhang away. Wang Zhang looked sullen.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Sanniang asked.

When Wang Jing heard this, he glanced at Sanniang and said sullenly: "Sister, why didn't I understand a word when you talked to the second brother?" Is my brother particularly stupid? So my sister only discusses things with my second brother? ”

Sanniang looked at the aggrieved young man in front of her, and didn't know how to answer.

If it was according to the past, she would definitely come forward to comfort Wang Jing, because in her heart, Wang Jing wanted to be a younger brother who was still in elementary school, she subconsciously didn't want to show the ugly side of the world in front of him, according to modern thinking, children should grow up carefree and happy, so that they will be healthy.

She only served as a junior in her previous life, and naturally has no experience in taking care of children, so she always subconsciously avoids Wang Jing's education problems. But after coming into contact with Xuanshao, Xuanyun, and Wang Zhang, who were not much older than Wang Jing, she began to examine herself and whether she had done something wrong. Perhaps, in this world, in their situation, Wang Jing's education cannot copy the so-called scientific education method of modern "herding sheep and grazing"?

Looking at the pure-eyed young man in front of her, Sanniang was very conflicted and struggling in her heart. Although she thinks she has enough ability to protect Wang Jing, she can't protect him for the rest of her life.

Thinking of this, Sanniang sighed: "Brother, I was wrong. I shouldn't hide it from you. ”

When Wang Jing heard Sanniang's words, her originally somewhat aggrieved emotions immediately turned into helplessness: "Sister, it's not your fault, it's that my brother can't help you." Don't be sad, it doesn't matter if my brother doesn't know. ”

Sanniang's heart was very warm when she heard this, although this young man was not smart, he really cared about his sister.

"We are the closest people in the world, we should have discussed everything, and Sanniang should not hide these things for fear of her brother's worries." Sanniang shook her head: "Sanniang has thought about it carefully, I should still tell you these things, so that you can act more in the future, and Sanniang will have a brother to help with advice if she encounters any difficulties." ”

Wang Jing listened and looked at Sanniang with bright eyes.

Sanniang smiled, pulled Wang Jing to sit down next to the chessboard, first pondered for a while, and then told Wang Jing some things about the Wang family in detail. It's just that because I'm worried that I won't be able to reach it quickly, and I'm afraid that Wang Jing won't be able to digest it for a while, so I just said it roughly, saying that Mama Li's departure, the recent rumors of the Wang family's haunting, Wang Zhang's request, and the Liu family who is about to come back.

Wang Jing listened very seriously, Sanniang also spoke patiently, and before she knew it, it was almost time for dinner.

Sanniang listened to some movement outside the house, and looked at the sky outside the window: "It's not early today, so let's talk about it here first." I'll talk to my brother another day. Brother also think carefully about what Sanniang said, and also think about what you think in your heart and how you will act in such a way. ”

Although Wang Jing was a little reluctant, he still nodded, and then said a little shyly: "I didn't know that my sister had done so many things behind my back, I should have been the one who was the elder brother to protect my sister, but I wanted my sister to worry about me." ”

Sanniang interrupted Wang Jing and said seriously: "Brother thinks why did Sanniang tell these things today?" Facing Wang Jing's equally serious eyes, Sanniang smiled slightly: "That's because Sanniang thinks that my brother is a person who can be discussed, and since my brother knows this, if something happens in the future, Sanniang will not think about blocking everything for her brother as before, but needs your brother to stand in front of Sanniang." Brother, the previous ones don't count, can Ake trust you in the future? ”

When Wang Jing heard this, an unprecedented pride suddenly aroused in his chest, and his limbs seemed to be soaked in the slightly hot bath water in winter, although it was slightly stinging, but every pore was shouting excited, as if something wanted to burst out, which made the young Wang Jing's face flushed.

Wang Jing took a step forward and carefully hugged Sanniang in his arms, Sanniang felt his body tremble slightly, so he also hugged her back.

"Sister, my brother will protect you, and I will do all my brother's strength to protect you." Wang Jing's voice was a little nasal, a little humming.

Sanniang somehow, her eyes suddenly turned red.

Coming out of Wang Jing's courtyard, Sanniang seemed to have let go of a big burden in her heart, and it was a little different from the ease of the past.

Although the road ahead looks bumpy and thrilling, it is full of dangers. But as long as she and Wang Jing support each other and trust each other, she firmly believes that they will be able to live well.

Sanniang looked up at the sunset in the west, the crimson clouds dyed red by the sunset, and unconsciously showed a smile.

"It's still early, I'm going to take a stroll in the garden." Sanniang said to the four girls behind her.

"But it's about to be dinner time, and you have to go to the old lady's yard tonight, miss." Bai Ying hesitated.

Sanniang thought for a while: "If I go back late, I'm afraid I will be nagged by Mama Zhao." In this way, Bai Ying, you take Sanqi back first, arrange for someone to go to the kitchen to get food, and the most important thing is to help me stabilize my grandmother and her old man. I'm going to take a look around and make sure I'll be back before you pack up the table. ”

Bai Ying just saw Sanniang coming out of Wang Jing's courtyard, although she tried her best to cover it up, it was still a little different from the past. Thinking that he must have talked to the fifth young master about something unhappy, he was depressed and wanted to disperse. So he nodded: "Then the young lady must come back early, otherwise the slaves and maids will also be scolded." ”

Sanniang responded with a smile, and went to the garden with Bai Zhi and Bai Guo, but walked to the vicinity of the flower dock.

Sanniang turned around in those four rounds, and after hearing a movement somewhere, she smiled secretly in her heart and stopped.

"That day, I talked to my eldest sister that I wanted to plant some chrysanthemums here, and when the flowers bloomed, I wanted to insert a bottle, I wanted to pick and dry them to make tea, or I simply packed them to make pillow cores. I just don't know if there's another chance to do it. ”

Sanniang said with some sadness in her voice. ()
