Chapter 5 Waste of time
The Zheng family and the Xiao family have a marriage contract.
The Xiao family is declining, the old generation is withering, the top generation is mediocre, there is no outstanding, the younger generation is still young and has not yet emerged, but Zheng Anyan is not a person who praises the high and the low, and he does not despise the Xiao family in the slightest, and he has never thought about retiring from marriage.
Others say that the Xiao family is a martial artist, and there is no lack of contempt and contempt between the words. Zheng Anyan has no opinion on her daughter's relationship with Xiao Yuan, on the contrary, when her daughter marries into Xiao's mansion, it will not be wrong to have a good relationship with her sister-in-law.
"Let Miss Xiao come in."
Zheng Anyan wanted to leave and let the two little girls talk, but Jing Ning grabbed him, his eyes moist with a hint of dependence.
"Dad, stay here with me for a while."
Zheng Anyan's heart softened, so he temporarily forgot about the previous mustard, thinking that it would be good if his daughter was well-behaved.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Kite's figure floated in like a butterfly.
She is wearing women's clothes today, a girl in red, her face is heroic, and there is a hint of femininity between her eyebrows, she is very beautiful, but she is completely different from Jing Ning.
Jingning is quiet, like spring water, sitting there, quiet like a virgin, like a painting, people can enjoy half a day, Xiao Kite is full of smart beauty, beauty publicity.
"Jing Ning!"
Xiao Yuan shouted happily, her facial expression was very rich, and when she saw Zheng Anyan, she was first surprised, her eyes widened, and then she quickly covered her lips, retracted her steps, and walked in front of Zheng Anyan in small steps.
Jing Ning looked at her like this, and couldn't help but feel a little funny. is obviously a wild girl, but if she has to make a lady's appearance, it is a little funny.
"Uncle Zheng."
Zheng Anyan wanted to leave, but Jing Ning's hand kept pulling the corner of his clothes.
Zheng Anyan showed a kind smile: "Miss Xiao Er." ”
After Xiao Yuan greeted Zheng An, he sat down beside Jing Ning and held her hand.
Xiao Kite's temperament jumped out, and soon he was unrestrained, and began to chatter, telling all the interesting things he had seen and heard in the past few days.
Jing Ning smiled at the corner of his mouth and listened carefully.
"Jing Ning, three days ago, in Piaoxiang Building, didn't you say that you wanted a wooden dagger? I've done it. ”
Xiao Yuan said, took out the dagger and handed it to Jing Ning.
Jing Ning played with the dagger, and was inadvertently a little aggrieved: "Say three days, it's really three days." Erniang, your dagger is not easy to get, in order to get your dagger, I have suffered, and my father made me kneel in the ancestral hall all night. ”
"Huh? Jing Ning, I'll just say why your face is so ugly. Uncle, Jing Ning asked me to play with me, why did you punish her? Xiao Yuan said quite puzzled.
Zheng Anyan seemed to think of something, his heart chuckled, and his face changed slightly.
Did you really wronged Jing Ning? It's not because you don't admit your mistakes because you die. Because the Yang family is reliable, Zheng Anyan never thought of verifying the truth of the matter.
If Jing Ning really saw Xiao Yuan instead of His Royal Highness......
Zheng Anyan's heart turned a thousand times, Jing Ning and Xiao Yuan didn't listen to what they said, and stood up suddenly: "Jing Ning, you treat Miss Xiao Er well, you have something to do for your father, so you will leave first." ”
Zheng Anyan seemed to have something to do, turned around and left, this time, Jing Ning didn't pull him anymore.
"Jing Ning, Uncle Zheng, this is ......"
Jing Ning slowly poured tea for Xiao Kite, and then picked up the delicate dagger and played with it.
"Ah Kite, your craftsmanship is getting better and better, much more exquisite than your own."
Xiao Yuan opened her mouth, as if she had something to say, but finally swallowed it.
The wooden dagger was not from her hand.
Two days ago.
Xiao Yuan played Chang'an City all over again, and finally regained his heart, and thought of his promise.
When Xiao Yuan took out the knife and wood and was about to do it, he was caught by his brother.
Xiao Rin had a cold face: "Waste of time." ”
Xiao Yuan was afraid of him, and everyone said that the cold air on her brother's body was only because of the battle and killing people. Xiao Yuan felt that he was born with it, and when he was young, he liked to keep a straight face, and he scared his playmates into crying.
Xiao Yuan subconsciously wanted to put down the knife and wood, and after a while, he stubbornly picked up the things again.
"I promised Jing Ning's ...... Brother, I won't carve this after carving......"
Xiao Kite lowered her head, so she didn't notice the change in Xiao Rin's expression.
His brows furrowed slightly, and his handsome face stretched out cold and hard lines, as if he was struggling with something.
After a moment, he stretched out his hand and took the things in Xiao Kite's hand.
Xiao Yuan's eyes widened, thinking that Xiao Rin was going to confiscate her tools, and suddenly became excited: "Brother! You can't do this! This is the last time, and I promise never to touch it again. This is what I promised Jing Ning, didn't you say that people should keep their promises? ”
Xiao Rin skillfully carved it up.
Xiao Kite's eyes widened: "Ah...... Brother! ”
It's a waste of time for her to carve, so brother carves it himself......
Xiao Yuan suddenly felt that it was difficult to guess what Brother was thinking, so he could only stand aside obediently.
Xiao Yuan stood for a long time, raised his head, and only saw Brother A's handsome side face, and there was a trace of seriousness in his eyes. Looking at the one in my brother's hand, I only finished a little bit.
Early the next morning, as soon as Xiao Yuan went out, he saw his brother standing at the door.
Xiao Rin handed her the dagger.
The dagger was quite delicate, many times more delicate than hers.
"To Zheng Jingning." Brother said.
Xiao Yuan took it in a daze.
Xiao Rin did not leave immediately, but said after a moment of silence: "You carved it." ”
"What?" Xiao Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"You said you carved it." Xiao Rin's voice fell, and he turned around and left.
Xiao Yuan stood there, stunned for a long time.
She suddenly thought of a question, Brother's eyes were a little red, could it be that he stayed up all night to carve it?!
Brother is like this, so as not to waste her time?!
Or Jingning......
Xiao Yuan came back to his senses from his memory, looking at Jing Ning who was playing with the dagger, and his heart was already turbulent.
This is my future sister-in-law.
Brother...... Is it to please the future sister-in-law?
Then why didn't Jing Ning know?
Brother's mind is too hard to guess.
Xiao Kite's thoughts returned, looking at Jing Ning, who couldn't put it down in front of him.
"Jing Ning, if you like it, it's fine."
The stormy waves all turned into a calm sentence.
Zheng Anyan returned to the study and immediately called the attendants: "Go and find out where Jing Ning went three days ago." ”
After the attendant left, Zheng Anyan was a little uneasy.
If you're really mistaken......
If Jing Ning hadn't gone to see His Royal Highness at all......
The door of the study was tightly closed, and Yang came several times, but no one could be seen.
"Master, are you still worried about Jingning's affairs?" Yang couldn't help but ask.
The little servant said: "The master went to Miss's place, and when he came back, something was wrong, and he kept himself locked in the study. ”
Yang lowered her eyes, her mind was deep, and she quickly thought of many things.
The old man went to see Zheng Jingning, which meant that his anger had disappeared a little.
After coming back, he locked himself in the study, which only showed that the master and Jing Ning had a quarrel again.
A smile flashed in Yang's eyes.
It's time to make trouble, just make more trouble.
Little by little, the father-daughter relationship was broken.
The master's heart is already cold, Zheng Jingning may be able to save some father-daughter feelings with a bitter trick. However, a girl who is trapped in love, only thinking about living with her lover, how can she think of so much?
Yang returned to his room, and the personal maid came and closed the door.
"Madame's in a good mood?" Hongyou looked at Yang's face and asked.
Yang chuckled: "Zheng Jingning, sometimes it's really stupid, I can't bear to deal with her." However, she occupies Xiuning's position, and I can't help but let it go. Xiuning, are you coming back? ”
"Miss Xiuning accompanied the old lady to Xingshan Temple to pray for blessings, and now it is the tenth day, four days back and forth on the road, plus a month in Xingshan Temple, and there are twenty-four days, Miss Xiuning will come back." Red You Road.
"Twenty-four...... That's been a long time. ”
Yang's eyes are closed, Hongyou's pressing skills are very good, Yang's whole body is comfortable, and the whole person is full of energy.
"Madam, the master is here." There is humanity outside.
Yang Shi opened his eyes suddenly: "Hongyou, make up some makeup for me." ”
Yang was wearing a cyan dress with a layer of white veil on the outside, and her makeup was delicate and charming.
Yang walked to the door, pushed the door open, and happened to see the old man standing at the door.
Zheng Anyan's eyes seemed to have a cold accumulation, he rarely got angry, this appearance was rare.
Yang was a little uneasy.
"Old man......"
Zheng Anyan walked in, only sat there, and did not speak with a wooden face.
"Master, did Jing Ning say something that made you sad? Jing Ning is young, and some of his words are really out of proportion, don't take it to heart......"
Syllable!
Zheng Anyan's anger seemed to be on the verge of its peak, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he slapped Yang in the face.
Yang's face turned white: "Master! ”
"What did Jing Ning do three days ago?"
Zheng Anyan's eyes had a hint of fierceness.
Yang felt that something was wrong, but he could only guess what he meant, and he continued to say it.
"Jing Ning was so affectionate that he went to see the Third Highness. Master, Jing Ning is young, and the concubine feels that she should not be forced too hard. Even though Jing Ning deceived the master, he was afraid that the master would be sad. ”
After Yang finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Anyan's face cautiously and found that his face was even more ugly.
Her mind spun quickly: "Even so, Jing Ning shouldn't hide it from the master." Fathers hate their children for deceiving them the most. However, this time, you also punished Jing Ning, Jing Ning should know that he was wrong, if he is still stubborn...... Then you also raised her for nothing. ”
Zheng Anyan sneered: "Three days ago, Jing Ning made an appointment with Xiao Yuan, the second lady of the Xiao family, to meet in Piaoxiang Building, and the two chatted in it for an hour. Three days ago, His Majesty taught the princes their homework, and His Royal Highnesses were in the palace all day, and it was impossible to leave the palace. ”
As soon as Zheng Anyan's words fell, Yang's face changed, and he was so shocked that he couldn't hide it.
Zheng Jingning didn't go to see His Royal Highness?
How so?
She never expected this to be the result.
Zheng Jingning didn't go to see His Royal Highness at all, so what she did would become-sow discord!
Yang was originally happy to feel that the prey had fallen into her trap, but now that she thought that it was the hunter who set the trap, and she stepped on it without being alert and became someone else's prey!
The joy in Yang's heart suddenly turned into despair.
"Jing Ning said that you targeted her, I don't believe her yet, I choose to believe you. Now it seems that I was wrong. It's just that I believe in you too much, I actually slapped her, and indiscriminately imprisoned Jing Ning in the ancestral hall! ”
As soon as Zheng Anyan thought of Jing Ning's stubbornness and grievances that day, he felt that he was not worthy of being a father at all!
"I always thought that you knew the general and handed over the backyard of the Zheng Mansion to you, but I didn't expect this to be the result. Yang Yinhuan, you have disappointed me so much! ”
Zheng Anyan rarely gets angry, only when he was facing Zheng Jingning a few days ago, he was so angry. At that time, she felt secretly happy, but now, she only feels hopeless and weak.
The image she has worked hard for many years, and the master's trust in her has been greatly reduced.
