Chapter 373: Lessons
Between the flow of his eyes, Jing Ning inadvertently caught a glimpse of a corner of the goose yellow skirt next to the rockery. She frowned and shouted, "Who is eavesdropping here?" Come out! "Dare to run to her courtyard to listen to the corner, she wants to see when there is such a bold and reckless slave in the general's mansion, and that person must be punished well, otherwise the general's mansion is afraid that it will be chaotic.
Lan Yao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at Jing Ning's gaze, only to see a graceful walk out from behind the rockery, looking very embarrassed, but soon returned to normal. She originally planned to go to Mrs. Yang today to exempt her from the punishment of copying Buddhist scriptures, but when she saw Lan Yao, she quietly followed behind her, wanting to see what happened to Lan Yao coming to Jing Ning, but she never thought that she would be discovered.
"Why are you here?" Jing Ning's eyes flashed with a little surprise, more of annoyance and disdain. Originally, seeing Lan Yao today, she had a little joy in her heart, but the appearance of grace really ruined her mood, and she also did such a disgraceful thing as listening to the corner, the smile on Jing Ning's lips gradually faded, and her attitude was very cold.
"A few days ago, I bumped into my sister, I felt very guilty and uneasy, this time I wanted to apologize to my sister, but I saw that you and Miss Lan Yao had a good conversation, I naturally didn't want to disturb, so I waited on the side, my sister misunderstood me." Wanxi's eyebrows frowned slightly, and the expression on her face was very aggrieved, as if she had been bullied by Jing Ning.
Jing Ning hooked the corners of his lips, and a little ridicule flashed in his eyes, it seemed that he really underestimated Wanxi's face, this is not ordinary thick, and he doesn't even need to play a draft to lie.
"That's it, you go back, you don't need to apologize, I hope you will behave yourself in the future." Jing Ning picked up the teacup, and the meaning of chasing away customers was very obvious. She felt upset when she saw Wanxi now, partly because of Xiao Rin, and partly because she simply didn't like this person.
Wanxi's expression froze for a moment, she didn't expect Jing Ning to be so faceless. She tightened the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and squeezed out a smile.
"I heard that my sister is going to the palace banquet, my sister must pay attention to her appearance, if she is still like in the mansion, I am afraid that she will make others laugh at our general's mansion, at least, my sister must be like me."
Wanxi raised her chin, with a little pride on her face, as if she was quite confident in her appearance.
"This person, you are self-aware, if all the women in the world are like you, I am afraid that even the king will not dare to choose a concubine, so as not to be disgusted to death." Lan Yao glanced at Wanxi coldly, and slowly picked up a piece of osmanthus cake, not caring about Wanxi's unpredictable face at all.
"Miss Lan is really articulate, I can't complain that she hasn't left the cabinet at such an age, I'm afraid that no man will marry such a mean person into the house." Wanxi sneered, seeing that Lan Yao's complexion changed and changed, she saluted Jing Ning perfunctorily, turned around and was about to leave.
"Stop."
Jing Ning's tone was gentle, but it contained a power that could not be refused, Wan Xi stopped, and turned around to face Jing Ning. Jing Ning's gaze was very flat, but after it was flat, he hid a little anger. Wanxi doesn't want to care about saying something excessive on weekdays, but now she dares to mock her friend like this, which she can't tolerate. Jing Ning narrowed his eyes, and the temperature of his eyes dropped little by little.
"Apologize to her."
Wanxi's face was full of disbelief, she wanted to open her mouth to refute, but Jing Ning's gaze on her seemed to have substance, as if she wanted to make a hole in her body. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's me who said inappropriately." Then she walked away quickly, but fortunately Jing Ning didn't stop her again this time. Jing Ning and Lan Yao glanced at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
"You get along with her every day, it's really a human suffering." Lan Yao's eyes were full of sympathy.
"There's no way, life can't always go as it should." Jing Ning sighed, but a smile flashed in his eyes. It's really boring to get along with Wanxi, but Lan Yao's ridicule like this also feels a little interesting, and it's time to watch a play.
Then the two picked up some light things and said, and before they knew it, the sky was getting darker, and Lan Yao got up to say goodbye.
Xu was because of Lan Yao, Jing Ning's mood was much better on the second day, and she was no longer sad all day long, which made Xiao's mother, who had been secretly worried, breathe a sigh of relief. Although Jing Ning has been holding back and not showing it, everyone can see that Jing Ning misses Xiao Rin for more than one or two points.
"Sister-in-law looks good today, if you want me to say, you should let Sister Lan come to the house to sit more, otherwise my sister-in-law is afraid that she will become ill." Xiao Yuan flashed a pair of big eyes and teased Jing Ning, and the smile on her lips was bright and a little cunning.
Jing Ning's face was hot, and he sandwiched a piece of hibiscus cake for Xiao Yuan, and reprimanded softly: "I can't stop your mouth when I eat, eat quickly!" ”
Xiao Yuan stuck out her tongue, and her playful appearance made Xiao's father and mother smile on their faces.
Wanxi looked at everyone's happy appearance, and her heart was very uneven. She rolled her eyes, covered her mouth with an embroidered handkerchief, and coughed heavily. Jing Ning glanced at Wanxi and continued to eat silently. Xiao Yuan pursed the corners of her lips and directly ignored Wanxi. Xiao's mother was originally angry because of the poisoning, but Wanxi's cough was louder, and she didn't want to ignore it, after all, this was a person given by the emperor, and she couldn't be neglected.
"Wanxi is not feeling well?"
Wanxi's eyes suddenly turned red, but tears filled up in an instant. She said in a low voice: "Thank you for your trouble, maybe I miss the general too much recently, and I have a little cold, so I contracted a cough, and I am to blame, but my body is not angry." ”
The smile on Xiao's mother's face gradually faded, and the expression on her face was not as natural as Fang Cai, and her worries about Xiao Rin were aroused again.
"The Buddhist temple in the south is located in the mountains and forests, the scenery is good, it is a good place to recuperate, why not pack up and move to live for a while today." Jing Ning looked coldly at Wanxi's pretentious appearance, and what she said was not polite at all.
The expression on Wanxi's face distorted, she knew that if she really went to the Buddhist temple to recuperate, she might not be able to enter the general's mansion again. She hid the resentment in her eyes, and said softly: "There is no need to be so troublesome, it's just a minor illness, and it will be good if you want to come and recuperate for two or three days." ”
"It's great, and it saves a lot of trouble." Jing Ning nodded, with a light and breezy appearance on his face, and the disgust for Wanxi in his heart deepened a lot.
Wanxi twitched the corner of her eye, did she mean that she was a trouble? Thinking of this, Wanxi secretly gritted her teeth but couldn't attack, so she had to endure her anger and didn't say a word more.
