Glancing regretfully at the direction of Jiang Shuqi's departure, Li Shushi Shiran sat down under the guidance of the attendant.

The award ceremony had come to an end, and Li Shu turned his head to see Xu Jinglin sitting on the award seat not far away, the prospective daughter-in-law who was highly respected by his mother.

He narrowed.

Xu Jinglin's facial features are bright, she is dignified and generous, and the elegance she exudes up and down her body is far inferior to that of a young woman like Jiang Er.

This is also what his mother and concubine Shugui Niangniang valued.

However, he has seen many such women since he was a child, and he really feels bored.

Xu is gaze was felt, and Xu Jinglin raised her eyes and looked over.

The two glanced at each other, Xu Jinglin bowed politely, and then moved her eyes away lightly.

No surprises, no joys, no waves.

It's really boring.

Li Shu sighed in his heart and withdrew his gaze.

After the reward meeting, Jiang Shuli and her sisters walked outside the palace together.

One by one, they got into their respective carriages, Jiang Shuli walked to the carriage of the Changning Marquis Mansion, and listened to the groom report in a low voice, "The second lady said that she was not feeling well, so she took the carriage back to the house in the morning." ”

Jiang Shuli raised her eyebrows, in the morning, Jiang Shuqi looked full of fighting spirit, why did he feel unwell?

She shook her head, since the carriage of the Hou Mansion was sent back to the mansion in person, it would be fine, so she got into the carriage and prepared to leave.

"Shuli."

As soon as the curtain was lowered, Li Ruitian's warm and jade-like voice sounded outside.

Jiang Shuli's face lit up, she was slightly disappointed that she had never seen her senior brother at the reward meeting, and she didn't want to be outside the carriage at this time.

She hurriedly lifted the curtain, "Senior brother! ”

Li Ruitian's handsome face had a warmer smile than in spring, "Shuli, is it convenient to say a few words?" ”

"Naturally!"

Jiang Shuli hurriedly got out of the carriage, turned around and ordered Qing Paper and the groom to go back to the Changning Marquis Mansion first, followed behind Li Ruitian and asked, "Senior brother, where are we going to talk?" ”

Qing Paper looked at Jiang Shuli, who left in a flash, a few days ago, Mrs. didn't let Miss see her uncle, saying that the Geng post had not been changed, and now that the Geng post has been changed, Mrs. shouldn't be angry, right?

She scratched her head and looked at the groom, "Let's go home." ”

"Come with me."

Li Ruitian walked like a fly, taking Jiang Shuli from outside the palace wall into the lively street market, and then through unknown alleys, and finally stopped in front of a small noodle shop.

Familiarly pulling Jiang Shuli to find a quiet corner in the store and sit down, Li Ruitian said, "Let's have two bowls of clear soup wonton." ”

The boss smiled and responded.

"Senior brother, how often do you come here?"

Jiang Shuli looked at the small shop curiously, the store was small but clean and tidy.

It was not yet noon, and there were not many guests.

The wontons were soon delivered steaming hot, with an enticing fragrance.

Jiang Shuli picked up the spoon and took a sip of the clear soup, and the sweetness in her mouth made her squint happily.

"It's delicious!"

Li Ruitian smiled and watched her eat for a while before he opened his mouth slowly, "Shuli, I heard from the raccoon that you are willing to change to the double cultivation method, but is it true?" ”

Jiang Shuli nodded, "It's true, senior brother, when will you give me the exercises?" ”

On the day of the Great Competition of the Four Kingdoms, in order to help Li Ruitian extract the ashes, the raccoon gave her a piece of exercise, but that was only a small part of the double cultivation exercises.

Li Ruitian's dark eyes became deeper and deeper, "Shuli, are you really willing?" ”

Jiang Shuli ate the last wonton and wiped his mouth with satisfaction, "Of course I do, why don't you want to?" ”

"Why do you want to?" Li Ruitian felt that it was a bit silly to ask such a question, but he still insisted on asking clearly.

Jiang Shuli looked confused, "Since the dual cultivation method is higher and more advanced than my previous cultivation, and it can help my senior brother cultivate, why am I unwilling?" ”

Li Ruitian was speechless for a while.

Sure enough, this little girl didn't understand what the double cultivation method was.

He said that the little fox proudly claimed that he had persuaded Jiang Shuli to be different.

But......

How could he say that he could say what kind of double cultivation method he wanted to do?

Sighing silently in his heart, Li Ruitian decided to discuss the matter of double cultivation after getting married.

After returning to the Changning Marquis Mansion, Jiang Shuli asked Yan Ju about Jiang Shuqi's situation, and only after hearing that she was fine did he settle down and go to Xilan Garden.

accompanied her mother to watch her take care of the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and suddenly an uninvited guest came.

"Who?" Jiang Shuli listened to her mother-in-law's report and rubbed her ears, "Who is here?" ”

"Miss Hui is a girl who calls herself Chang Ximei," the mother-in-law said respectfully, "she said that she came to find the eldest lady." ”

Chang Ximei?

Jiang Shuli's gentle and graceful appearance of Chang Ximei came to mind, she had never crossed paths with her, why did she suddenly come to the door to find her?

"Shuli, but someone you know?" Ouyang asked.

After listening to Jiang Shuli's description, Ouyang's heart was alarmed, "Are you saying that she lives in Qingning Palace and often accompanies the Queen Mother?" ”

"The Queen Mother said that she was the distant niece of the queen, and she stayed in Qingning Palace because she was pleasing and lived there for several years."

Jiang Shuli told what he knew, got up and said, "Mother, I'll take a look." ”

Ouyang glanced at Mama Xu, and Mama Xu immediately understood, and ran in small steps to keep up with Jiang Shuli.

Chang Ximei is a woman who is as gentle as water, and her voice is soft and nongnong, "Shuli, sister is bothering you when she comes here?" ”

"How?" Jiang Shuli responded politely, "I don't know if Sister Chang came because Shuli didn't greet her well." ”

Guiding Chang Ximei to sit down for tea, Jiang Shuli asked with a light smile, "What is the matter with Sister Chang's coming?" ”

Chang Ximei took a sip of tea unhurriedly and smiled apologetically, "Speaking of which, it's my sister." When my sister and Lord Rui were married, my sister should come to the door to congratulate her. It's just that Qingning Palace is busy with affairs, and my sister can't take a break to wait until today. ”

"It happens to be a good day for the Four Kingdoms to be rewarded for it, so my sister thinks that no matter how busy she is, she has to come to my sister in person to say hello."

Jiang Shuli was stunned when he heard it.

Is she familiar with Chang Ximei?

Why does Chang Ximei look like she has every opportunity to make time to congratulate her?

"Thank you, sister."

"It's all a family, and I don't deserve to be so grateful to my sister." Chang Ximei affectionately took Jiang Shuli's hand, "Speaking of which, it's really thanks to my sister that I saved Lord Rui." ”

"Every time my sister thinks of this, she can't wait to treat her sister as her own sister."

She took out a silk handkerchief, wiped her tears and said, "It's all my sister who is useless, I was too sad when I learned the news that Lord Rui was unconscious, and I fainted." ”

"Otherwise, I can accompany the prince to serve around, and I don't have to bother my sister to spend so much effort."

“……”

Jiang Shuli looked at Chang Ximei, who instantly turned into tears, and was speechless.

And Chang Ximei didn't expect her reaction, because what she was about to say hadn't finished yet.

Wiping her eyes with a silk handkerchief again, she took a breath and held Jiang Shuli's hand again.

"Sister—"
