Chapter 310: Behind the scenes
Xue Shi laughed dryly: "I naturally can't ask for it here." However, I am also a stepmother, I can't speak in the house, and the girl who gave birth to me has always disobeyed my discipline, I am afraid that I will disappoint your wife. ”
Mrs. Hou knew that she was not shirking, and smiled confidently: "You just have to say if you want to, and we will discuss the rest." ”
Xue nodded like pounding garlic: "Willing, willing, how can you be unwilling?" ”
Mrs. Hou and Ling Luobing both smiled: "Then it's decided." ”
Xue smiled embarrassedly: "But, after I return home, how will I explain?" You know, my old lady and the old man have high hopes for An Sheng, and they want An Sheng to marry a splendid door and shine on the lintel. ”
"Glorious lintel, then there must be this blessing, right?" Mrs. Hou snorted coldly: "I heard that the third young lady of your family was born with a beautiful face and moon appearance, a good and blessed portrait of a prosperous husband and a prosperous son." The fourth lady is now thriving in Beijing, and she is famous, which is better than this.
If there is such a relationship between our two families, the marriage of the third and fourth ladies of your family will be all on me, and I will pay attention to choosing two good marriages for the two girls. ”
Xue Shi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you Mrs. Hou for remembering." If you say what you should do, the woman will only look to you. ”
"No matter what you do, we're all for the sake of Ansheng, okay? My distant nephew fell in love with Ansheng at first sight. Those of us who are elders just need to match them and give them a chance to get along, don't we? ”
Xue Shi was stunned: "The woman is stupid, please also ask Mrs. Hou to make it clear." ”
Mrs. Hou smiled coldly: "In two days, if Mrs. Xia has leisure, please come to my Hou Mansion and have a glass of water and wine." ”
Xue was really flattered: "Thank you Madame for lifting up, it must be." ”
Mrs. Hou beckoned to her: "Come close to me." ”
Xue Shi hurriedly leaned over, and came closer, Mrs. Hou Ye whispered two words like this, and Xue Shi instantly smiled.
"Madam, don't worry, this little matter will be handed over to the woman, and you will be assured of peace of mind."
Mrs. Hou nodded with satisfaction: "You are a smart person, you can understand a little." I won't say more. After I went back, I thought about it. Whether it succeeds or not, this matter is all handled by you, as a mother, and has nothing to do with my Hou Mansion. ”
Xue's heart was like eating a sweet date, and he was so excited that his palms were sweating. Mrs. Hou's meaning, for her, is tantamount to Shang Fang's sword, and it is in her arms.
Therefore, one bite should be accepted: "Madam, don't worry, the woman knows the severity and depth, and she is absolutely tight-lipped." ”
On the side, Ling Luobing was also proud in his heart, he couldn't wait, and said to the Xue family with a domineering attitude: "Go back and tell Xia Ziwu and Xia Zixian that the grievances between me and the two of them will be written off from now on." In the circle of noble women in the capital, no one will embarrass them in the future. ”
Ling Luobing is a leading figure in the circle of nobles in the capital, who doesn't give her three points of thin noodles. As soon as she spoke, Xia Zixian and Xia Ziwu would be equivalent to having a backer in the future, and the Xue family became more and more excited, and her face was full of redness: "Thank you for raising your noble hand, thank you for raising your hand." ”
Mrs. Hou picked up the tea cup at hand, and it goes without saying that this is the meaning of sending off guests.
Xue Shi knew each other and immediately withdrew.
Ling Luobing snorted softly: "This Xue family is a smart person, no wonder a broken family can actually climb high to become a member of the foreign army and become a serious wife." ”
Mrs. Hou Ye nodded: "The one who knows the times is Junjie, at most, she can be regarded as a knowledgeable lifter, knows how to observe words and feelings, and steers with the wind." If you talk about scheming and intelligence, she is still a little worse than Ansheng's little girl. Just look at her so uncontrollable, her joy and anger are shown on her face, and her deeds are not enough. ”
Ling Luobing greeted with a smile: "It's still my aunt's fierce eyes and insight into the world." ”
Mrs. Hou turned her face to look at Ling Luobing: "Aunt likes your simplicity, just like a blank piece of paper, all your thoughts are written on your face, which is the best match for my family's shocking clouds." Like Xia Ansheng, she has a lot of flowers, if she really marries into the Hou Mansion in the future, Jingyun will spoil her and be bound by her. This Hou Mansion has not become the world of her Xia Ansheng.
That's why my aunt spares no effort to help you. My aunt also hopes that you can marry into the Hou Mansion in the future and be my daughter-in-law. But if Jingyun didn't have this blessing, I would have nothing to do. ”
Ling Luobing's face darkened, and he said aggrievedly: "It's all to blame for that bull-nosed old man, who ran to my emperor's brother and talked nonsense, it was clearly aimed at me!" ”
Mrs. Hou also sighed lightly: "Aunt doesn't believe these strange powers, but the king is taboo, and the old lady is old, so she is also convinced of this." Therefore, it is still unknown whether you and Jingyun have this fate. ”
Ling Luobing pouted and said indignantly: "One day, I will definitely go to that spotless mansion and pull out his beard one by one, and see if he dares to collude with Brother Jingyun to talk nonsense?" ”
Mrs. Hou Ye laughed and said, "Full of Chang'an, that is, you have such guts." It's still so rude, it seems that your father has spoiled you. ”
Ling Luobing sneered: "Auntie, this is disgusted Luo Bing." ”
"Where, where?" Mrs. Hou laughed heartily: "We are the county lord of the palace, and we have this kind of arrogant capital. ”
An Sheng returned to the Jingshu Pavilion where he lived and closed the door.
There are some mixed feelings in my heart. There is the joy after the misunderstanding is resolved, there is the excitement of saying goodbye to Leng Nanxian, and more is the intricate feelings for Yu Jingyun.
Indeed, Yu Jingyun's possessiveness towards her almost domineering has caused her trouble and burden, and she wants to get rid of it, but at the same time she can't bear it.
In addition to the kindness that can't be written off, there is also the past love between the two.
An Sheng couldn't bear to hurt him, which was also the main reason why she had been indecisive after understanding his thoughts, but it was also the main reason why she ruthlessly rejected Yu Jingyun after understanding her affection for Leng Nanxian now.
When the interruption continues, it is chaotic.
Since he has decided that he doesn't want to marry into the Hou Mansion, then, the long pain is better than the short pain, so it is better to be ruthless and not give Yu Jingyun a little more hope.
Feelings, it's really not something that can be forced. She forced herself for so long, and she didn't like Yu Jingyun, on the contrary, she was even more affectionate for Leng Nanxian.
So, it's your own way. Even if she has 110,000 possibilities with Leng Nanxian, she doesn't want to wronged herself, and she is even more unfair to Yu Jingyun.
He continued to think crankily until the sun set in the west, and then the sky grew dark and the stars rose.
Her food was cold and hot, and she still had no appetite, so Kim Mi'er reluctantly withdrew.
She gently pushed open the window, and the crescent moon was like a hook, hanging low from the treetops, and the wind mixed with the cold of spring blew in her face, and instantly blew away the messy irritability in her head.
In my ears, there were faint branches and leaves falling, accompanied by the roar of a sharp long sword, and the sound of breaking the sky.
She could hear that it was Yu Jingyun practicing his sword.
The courtyard of the two was only separated by two high walls, and the cries could be heard.
An Sheng seemed to be able to hear Yu Jingyun's heavy breathing.
He's not just practicing swords, he's also venting.
There was a constant sound of branches breaking on the ground, and the yard was already in a mess.
An Sheng suddenly discovered that Yu Jingyun didn't know when he started, and gradually reined in his temper, no longer so arrogant, irritable and irritable, and he was much calmer.
She was stunned for a long time, then closed the window and shut out the sound.
This night, An Sheng didn't sleep well.
Yu Jingyun also stayed awake all night.
Because, in the silent night, the sound of Yu Jingyun practicing his sword was clearly audible.
An Sheng desperately resisted the urge to get up, extinguished the candle in the room, and pretended to fall asleep.
Doors and windows are closed.
On the morning of the second day, when the first rays of sunlight in the morning shone into Ansheng's house through the carved window lattice, Ansheng woke up.
She stretched and sat up, and listened with her ears strained, and the courtyard was silent, as if there was no movement.
Looking at the time, Yu Jingyun should have already had breakfast and left the house.
An Sheng got out of bed in his clothes, pulled his hair all over his head, pulled on his shoes and went to the ground, and gently pushed open the window.
The warm sunlight poured in, and An Sheng was in a trance for a moment, squinting his eyes slightly.
When he opened it again, Yu Jingyun was wearing a dark green brocade robe, with his sleeves pulled up, and a long sword in his hand, standing in the courtyard, raising his face and smiling at An Sheng.
His spirit is not good, there is green stubble coming out of his chin, and the whole person looks a little decadent. But the eyes are bright and shining, glowing with a different kind of brilliance.
That smile, with exhaustion, seemed to use great strength.
An Sheng also smiled back forcefully.
Yu Jingyun took two steps forward, looked at An Sheng and said softly, "Awake?" ”
An Sheng nodded: "You haven't left yet?" ”
Yu Jingyun shook his head gently: "I figured it out, I can't wait to tell you, so I've been waiting for you to get up." ”
"Figured it out?"
"Hmm." Yu Jingyun smiled naturally from her across the window: "I understand what you said yesterday, just like Ling Luobing's troubles for me, which makes me avoid it." ”
The corners of An Sheng's lips opened slightly, and two long-lost little suns jumped in his eyes again, and the flowing waves became bright.
Yu Jingyun was a little stupid for a while, and his smile was a little silly.
"So, from this day forward, until you like me, I will never say a word of love for you again. I would like to spend time with you as before, intimate and relaxed. ”
An Sheng's smile instantly froze on his face.
"If it's deliberate, can it still be called free?"
