Chapter 172: Summoned
Su Jinzhao was stunned for a moment, and when she reacted to his words, when she looked up, she only saw Yu Wenyu's back gradually moving away, and now she only dared to raise her eyes when facing his back.
Looking at the familiar back away from her, Jin Zhao's eyes were slightly red, and he tried to suppress the tears in his eyes.
Just now, he asked such a question to test her mind.
Jin Zhao thought so, and thought so.
It's just that she doesn't intend to tell her what she thinks in her heart, and it's better to have an ambiguous answer than to be seen by him.
After Yu Wenyu left, Qiao Ci came in from outside.
Seeing Jin Zhao's slightly red eyes and stunned look, Qiaoci's heart moved slightly, and she silently handed the jade bracelet in her hand to her, and said softly: "Miss, this is the jade bracelet given to you by the third prince."
Jin Zhao hurriedly turned her head, brushed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and then turned around, she had calmed down a little, and now she was able to easily control her emotions compared to Su Jinzhao, who was impulsive before.
Jin Zhao asked, "When did you come in, why don't you say anything?"
When his maid saw him like this, he was inevitably embarrassed.
Qiao Ci replied: "I just saw the third prince leave, so I came in." As she spoke, she handed over the jade bracelet in her hand again, "This is given to you by the third prince, and the slave maid feels that it is very compatible with the eldest lady, and it seems that it should be carefully selected." I didn't expect the third prince to be very good at picking things. ”
Fang Cai didn't take a closer look at this jade bracelet, this person left, she couldn't help but look at it a few more times, I have to say, Yu Wenyu is indeed very good at choosing things, this jade bracelet is warm and delicate, crystal flawless, but it is really good.
Jin Zhao hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out to take it, took it in his hand and looked at it for a while, before he closed his eyes and said lightly: "Put it away."
When Qiao Ci heard this, she immediately persuaded and said: "It's a pity to put away such a good jade bracelet, it's better for the slave to put it on for you."
After hesitating, Qiao Ci had already taken it upon herself to put the jade bracelet on her wrist.
"Miss, how beautiful it looks on your hand." Qiao Ci looked at it.
Jin Zhao looked down at the jade bracelet in his hand, and thought to himself, Yu Wenyu gave her the jade bracelet, it was really just to thank her, but there are many ways to thank her, why did she choose only this one.
Asking her such a question today for no reason, what she thinks in her heart, is it important to him?
Jin Zhao's heart was a little sad, the reason why she deliberately avoided him and avoided him in this life was that she didn't want to go through the mistakes of her previous life, all she wanted was the stability of her life. At least you don't have to compete with others for favor, at least you don't have to be on guard against how others harm you, and you don't have to worry about the ruthlessness of the king.
It's just that the emotional shackles that I couldn't get rid of in my previous life, can I let go of them in this life?
She has always been confident, but at this moment, she began to be unconfident.
It's no wonder that the man who used to love her to the bone now tells her not to care, which is indeed not an easy thing.
She looked at Qiao Ci and asked aloud, "Do you really think it looks good?"
Qiao Ci nodded, and replied truthfully: "What the slave said is true, but she didn't tell you."
Jin Zhao sighed: "That's it, then wear it."
Let's just think of it as the other party's thanks, and the rest, she just doesn't think much about it. She's going to be out of here soon, anyway.
Jin Zhao stroked the jade bracelet in his hand, his thoughts were chaotic for a while, and Qiaoci on the side saw it in his eyes and did not make a sound.
In the past two days, Jin Zhao went to Yunli as usual and went to the small kitchen as usual, but he had already instructed Qiaoci to clean up and salute.
On this day, Jin Zhao made lunch and waited for Ding Lan to come and pick it up, but who knew that what was waiting for was the summons of Concubine Jing.
Ding Lan was puzzled: "I wanted to hide it for the girl, but after all, the mother still knew."
Jin Zhao seemed very calm, and Concubine Jing knew that this matter was within her expectations. The women in the palace can still be safe and sound in the open and secret battles, and it is conceivable that they are not just simple women.
Qiao Ci looked at her with some worry, Jin Zhao patted her on the shoulder and raised a gentle smile: "You go back and continue to pack up your salutes, and I'll come back when I go."
Qiao Ci wants to accompany her, and she can also adapt to the situation when the time comes, in case Concubine Jing gets angry, she can also suffer for her master when necessary.
Unexpectedly, her idea was blocked by Jin Zhao's look, Jin Zhao touched Qiaoci's head, and said in a gentle voice: "Don't worry, it'll be fine, I'll be back soon."
After that, Su Jinzhao followed Ding Lan to Wuxi Palace.
Along the way, Jin Zhao shook hands, and seeing that he was about to meet Concubine Jing, he naturally couldn't hide the excitement and nervousness in his heart.
Her mood was seen by Ding Lan, who was leading the way by her side, and she said: "The girl doesn't have to be nervous, my master is a good-natured master."
Hearing the little girl comforting herself, she couldn't help laughing at herself for being too unproductive.
Ding Lan thought she didn't believe it, so she said again: "If the girl doesn't believe it, you will know what the slave said when you see Concubine Jing later."
Jin Zhao knew that Ding Lan had misunderstood what she meant, Concubine Jing, how she didn't know what kind of person she was, because she knew too well, so she would agree to Yu Wenyu to come over to help this time.
Jin Zhao said: "Thank you Miss Ding Lan for mentioning it."
Ding Lan said a little embarrassed: "I don't eat less snacks made by girls on weekdays, and when it comes to thanking you, it should be the slave and the maid who thank the girl." If it weren't for the girl, how could the slave be so happy. ”
The corners of Jin Zhao's mouth floated with a faint warmth, and she was affirmed in person, and praised her for the deliciousness of the things she cooked, which was in vain that she had worked hard to learn this cooking skill.
She waved her hand and said, "It's just a convenient thing, it's hard for you to remember."
Ding Lan said: "It is said that eating people has a short mouth and a soft hand, the slave and maid are not complimenting you, the slave and Zixiang both agree in private that the things you make are delicious, by the way, the mother also ate it before, and said it was delicious."
Jin Zhao smiled, but she was a blunt girl.
While talking, the two arrived at Wuxi Palace.
"Girl, the mother is waiting for you in the house, please follow the slave into the house."
Jin Zhao nodded and followed her in.
In the room, a woman was leaning slightly on the collapse, Zixiang was waiting on the side, and when she heard the footsteps, she opened her eyes slightly, and her body sat up.
Ding Lan led Jin Zhao forward and saluted back: "Niangniang, Miss Su is here."
Concubine Jing looked at Jin Zhao with her eyes, raised her hand and said, "Get up."
"Yes". The two responded.
At this time, Concubine Jing looked at the girl in front of her carefully, and finally said, "I heard that you have been taking care of my diet these days, but it is hard for you."
With that, he pointed to the chair next to him and motioned for her to sit down and talk.
Jin Zhao understood, sat down, and said, "There is nothing hard or hard, Niangniang's body is the most important."
