Chapter 140 Temple Prayer
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is early summer, since marrying into the Hou Mansion, the Meng family has often made trouble with Su Xiaojin openly and secretly, and even tried to harm Su Xiaojin secretly, but Su Xiaojin dealt with it smartly.
"It's really unreasonable, Su Xiaojin, this slut, I feel upset when I see her, if it wasn't for her, how could my sister end up so miserable." Meng Shi sat at the table, holding a white brocade handkerchief in his hand, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, and gritted his teeth.
"Madam, you don't have to worry, the slave maid heard a news, and I promise that Madame you will be happy when you hear it."
Seeing Meng's resentful look, the maid next to Meng suddenly stepped forward and said mysteriously, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips.
"Oh?" When Meng Shi heard this, he turned his head and glanced at the little maid suspiciously, with a look of obvious disbelief, "What news?" Don't fool me with things that don't matter. ”
"Madam, how dare the slave maid, the slave maid knows that you hate this Su Xiaojin to the core, and this news is about Su Xiaojin." The little girl's eyes rolled and lowered her volume a little.
Meng Shi is an impatient character, hearing the little maid grinding and chirping like this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and glared at her, "What the hell is the news, you can tell it quickly, don't sell it to me." ”
"Yes." The little maid was shocked by Meng's tone, and hurriedly owed a debt, and replied with a respectful expression, "Madam, do you know that Princess Xiao Yun's grounding order has been lifted." ”
"So what?" Meng Shi raised his eyebrows, picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup on the table and put it into his lips, and took a sip of tea gently, looking very disapproving.
The little maid's eyes were slightly condensed, and she looked around, and saw that there was no one else in the room except for the two of them, so she continued to speak, "The slave maid has a cousin who serves by Princess Xiao Yun's side, and the slave maid heard from her cousin that Princess Xiao Yun plans to attack Su Xiaojin in the next few days." ”
"Really?" When Meng Shi heard this, a pair of Danfeng eyes instantly lit up, and she showed an excited look on her face, and subconsciously grabbed the little girl's collar and asked.
The little maid nodded solemnly, "Madam, don't worry, this matter is absolutely true, even if the slave maid has a hundred guts, she will never dare to deceive you." ”
When Meng Shi heard this, Huo Ran stood up, and the expression on his face looked extremely excited.
She walked to the window, looked at the withered peach blossoms outside through the open window lattice, a smug smile hooked up at the corner of her lips, clenched her fists, and whispered to herself: "Great, Su Xiaojin, I was worried that I couldn't find a good way to deal with you, but I didn't expect that the princess actually wanted to deal with you too. ”
After speaking, Meng Shi's thoughts gradually drifted away, and she could even imagine in her mind that Su Xiaojin was not as good as death, and the more she thought about it, the more proud she felt, and the smile on the corner of her lips couldn't be hidden no matter what.
As long as Su Xiaojin is dead, then the position of the hostess of the Hou Mansion will always be her own, not to mention, she can also help her sister avenge her sister by the way.
"Madam, the slave maid heard that three days later, Su Xiaojin will go out to the White Horse Temple to offer incense, I believe that Princess Xiaoyun will definitely choose to attack Su Xiaojin on that day." The little maid stepped forward and added.
Meng Shi nodded, and didn't say anything more, but he was secretly thinking in his heart that as long as Su Xiaojin was killed by the people sent by Xiao Yun when he went out three days later, he would have one less confidant, and this time, he didn't need to do it himself, it was the best of both worlds.
Three days came in a blink of an eye, on this day, Su Xiaojin woke up very early, she got up and walked to the window to take a look, only to see that the sky had just been brightened, and the sky was still a little blue, which looked a little dim.
"Xiaojin, why did you get up so early?"
A warm voice suddenly came from behind her, and at the same time, a pair of hands wrapped their backs around her waist.
Smelling the familiar smell on Tang Muchen's body, the corners of Su Xiaojin's lips curled up, she didn't look back, just smiled and said, "Have you forgotten, today I am going to the White Horse Temple to offer incense." ”
"You don't have to do these things yourself."
Tang Muchen's sigh sounded in his ears, and the breath that erupted from his mouth was on Su Xiaojin's neck.
Su Xiaojin suddenly felt as if he had been electrocuted, and his whole body was crispy and numb, with a slight itch.
Su Xiaojin couldn't help but break away from his embrace, and distanced herself from Tang Muchen, she looked back, with a smile in her eyes, "How can this be done, it's better for me to go to the temple to pray for blessings, otherwise the Buddha will blame me for not being sincere enough." ”
"How can you believe in such strange things?" Tang Muchen raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was a little surprised, in his opinion, Su Xiaojin should not believe in any gods, Buddhas and ghosts.
Su Xiaojin smiled faintly and didn't answer him immediately, indeed, she didn't believe it before, but since she inexplicably traveled to ancient times, she couldn't help but not believe it.
And the reason why Su Xiaojin wanted to go to the temple to pray for blessings was precisely for Tang Muchen, Tang Muchen was obviously not in good health, but he didn't know how to take care of his body, but often stayed up late to work, which also caused his body to become weaker and weaker, and he was never able to completely recuperate.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaojin felt distressed, she raised her eyes and glanced at Tang Muchen, "Of course I believe it, if it weren't for your body, I wouldn't have thought of going to the temple to pray for blessings, if you still have a little conscience, just listen to me, don't let yourself be so tired in the future." ”
Tang Muchen was shocked when he heard this, he never thought that Su Xiaojin wanted to go to incense so actively, but it was actually for himself.
At this moment, he suddenly couldn't say what he was thinking in his heart, he just looked at Su Xiaojin for a long time, silent.
After a long silence, Tang Muchen suddenly stepped forward, and gently took Su Xiaojin in his arms, and his careful movements were like the woman in his arms, the most precious treasure in the world.
Su Xiaojin was stunned, but she didn't break free, she snuggled in Tang Muchen's arms, feeling Tang Muchen's calm and powerful heartbeat, and her heart was at peace that she had never had.
"Madam, it's not too early, the slave and maid are here to serve you and freshen up."
As soon as Xiaobi walked in, she saw Su Xiaojin and Tang Muchen hugging each other, and the whole person was stunned in place.
