Chapter Thirty-Six: An Unexpected Guest
When Li Pei came, the little maid heard that he was looking for Nian Yingxi, thinking about the evil ghosts that had been rumored to be attached to Nian Yingxi's body recently, so he just took Li Pei to the courtyard, and turned around and left in a panic.
The last time they met, Li Pei had already thought that Nian Yingxi would not be favored in the Nian family, so he was not surprised by the little girl's behavior, knocked on the closed door alone, waited for a long time and did not see anyone reply, suddenly a gust of wind blew the door open, Li Pei walked into the house to see, and did not see Nian Yingxi's person, he was even more worried, and when he saw that it was going to rain outside, he simply lit the candle in the house, sat down and waited.
kept recalling the words of the sixth son in the afternoon, which made Li Peiru, who was waiting, sit on pins and needles, and just when he couldn't wait to get up and go to Nian Gengrong to ask carefully, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening behind him.
He couldn't wait to get up and look back, and heard her surprised question, "Why are you?" ”
Li Pei saw that she was not as serious as the sixth son said, so he couldn't help but let go of his nervousness and smiled gently, "I accidentally heard that the second lady was injured in the afternoon, and I happened to pass by the Nianfu at night, so I thought about coming over to have a look." ”
Pass by? Nian Yingxi laughed in her heart, although she didn't believe Li Pei's words at all, she didn't say anything, walked into the house, leaning against the wall, not because she didn't want to sit, but because she was injured and couldn't sit.
The room fell silent for a while, Li Pei coughed lightly to break the embarrassment, took out a palm-sized bottle from his arms, and sent it to Nian Yingxi, "This is the best gold sore medicine, it is said that it can not only quickly recover the wound, but also leave no scars." ”
Chu Ziqiao didn't reach out and take the medicine bottle, but smiled meaningfully, "I didn't expect Li Gongzi to go out with such a precious gold sore medicine, isn't he afraid of accidental injury?" ”
Li Pei was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained, "This medicine was naturally specially brought to the second young lady. ”
"But just now I remember that Li Gongzi said that he was passing by here, could it be that Li Gongzi had foresight? Do you know that when you go out, you will definitely pass by the New Year's House? Nian Yingxi looked at Li Pei, who was speechless, and the smile on her face deepened, this Li Pei and Li Liansheng are really completely different, one is a profiteer who can't catch his tail, and the other is an honest man who can't even tell a lie.
Li Pei was stunned for a long time before laughing at himself, "The last time I saw it, I thought that the second miss was unusual, but now I didn't expect that the second miss is not only a good heart, but also a smart ice and snow, it seems that this time it was Li who played a big knife in front of Guan Gong." ”
Nian Yingxi was tired for a long time, and now she just wants to go to bed, she is not interested in Li Pei's words around the bend at all, she put away her smile and goes straight to the point, "I'm a little tired, if Li Gongzi has nothing else to do, please go back." ”
This eviction order made Li Pei, who had never experienced feelings, a little wooden, and he was stupid for a while, and he didn't even know where to put his hand.
The room was quiet again, and even a pin could be heard dropping.
After staring at his wood-like reaction for a while, Nian Yingxi sighed, looked at the medicine bottle he was still holding in his hand, thought about it and took it, "I'll take this medicine, it's not too early, Li Gongzi, please go back." "She's not a person who hurts people for no reason, and since people are kind-hearted, why is she so aggressive?
Li Pei saw that she accepted the ointment, and her stunned expression was finally dyed with a smile, seeing that it was really not early outside, he walked out with a step, and when he walked to the door, he remembered that he had not yet said goodbye, and immediately turned around and saluted Nian Yingxi, "Second Miss rest early, it will be my father's birthday in a few days, Li is looking forward to the next meeting with Second Miss." ”
"Wait." Nian Yingxi stopped him who had already stepped out of the threshold, and under his surprised gaze, he picked up a worn-out oil-paper umbrella by the door and put it in his hand, "It's still raining outside, although the umbrella is a little worn, but it's much better than going back in the rain." ”
Li Pei didn't expect Nian Yingxi to be such a careful person, and his heart warmed up while he was happy, and he thanked Nian Yingxi again before going down the steps with an umbrella.
Seeing Li Pei walk out of the courtyard, Nian Yingxi was about to turn around and close the door, but suddenly saw a black shadow flashing not far from the courtyard, although it was only for a moment, Nian Yingxi still saw the person's appearance clearly, that person was none other than Nian Yingchun's personal maid - like water.
It seems that Li Pei's arrival has alarmed Nian Yingchun and An Zhimei, otherwise he would not have sent Rushui over to keep an eye on him.
Thinking about An Zhimei helping Nian Yingchun send a love letter to Li Pei, Nian Yingxi was afraid that Li Pei's arrival tonight would stimulate An Zhimei, so that An Zhimei would no longer play cards according to the routine, the corners of her lips were hooked, her eyes rolled, and she suddenly rushed into the rain, stood in the middle of the yard, let go of her throat and pretended to cry, and the earth-shattering cry not only scared Rushui who was about to leave, but also shocked Qianqian to open the door.
Qianqian saw Nian Yingxi standing in the rain, thinking that she still had injuries on her body, so she hurriedly took a piece of clothing and ran to Nian Yingxi's side, and said in an anxious tone, "Miss, what's wrong?" What's going on? ”
"He rejected me, he actually rejected me! Say he has someone in his heart! Nian Yingxi howled while staring at the shadow around the corner with her peripheral vision, "Qianqian, I've been divorced again, woo woo...... What can I do? ”
Rushui, who was not far away, heard this, laughed secretly, turned around and ran towards Fumei Courtyard, I really didn't expect Li Pei's arrival this time to refuse the second lady, she wanted to quickly tell the good news to the second lady and the young lady of her own family!
Qianqian was in a fog when Nian Yingxi said it, and she didn't understand what she said at all, and when she saw that the rain was heavy again, she hurriedly helped Nian Yingxi to walk to the house, for fear that Nian Yingxi's wound would worsen again.
Nian Yingxi saw that the figure around the corner disappeared, and followed Qianqian back to the house with a sneer, what she wanted was to make An Zhimei and Nian Yingchun think that Li Pei rejected herself because of Nian Yingchun, the so-called standing high and falling hard, she wanted to hold their mother and daughter to the highest place, and then push them down with her own hands!
Is she ruthless? She is ruthless, but her ruthlessness is only used on the ruthless person.
Fukume-in.
"Miss, Miss!" rushed into the house in the rain, and looked at An Zhimei's mother and daughter who were eating fruit with an excited face, "Second lady, miss, just now Li Peigongzi left on the front foot, and the second lady rushed out of the house, standing in the rain and crying, saying that Li Peigongzi rejected her because she had a heart!" ”
Nian Yingchun was about to slap happily, but her face sank instantly, "Even if Li Pei rejected that fool, it was because he had someone else in his heart, what is there to be happy about this kind of thing?" ”
An Zhimei remembered that she asked Wang Shengzi to order someone to deliver the letter today, and took Nian Yingchun's hand with a smile, "If you say it for your mother, then Li Pei rejected the little slut's words because of Chun'er, shouldn't Chun'er be happy?" ”
Nian Yingchun thought that An Zhimei was coaxing herself, lowered her head and muttered quietly, "I have only met that Li Pei once, and he doesn't know my mind at all, why did I reject that fool because of me?" ”
An Zhimei smiled mysteriously, waved her hand to let Rushui withdraw, lowered her voice, and told Nian Yingchun the plan of herself and Wang Shengzi yesterday.
In her opinion, Li Pei was definitely moved by that love letter, so she came to refuse Nian Yingxi today, otherwise where would there be such a coincidence, the letter was just sent this morning, this Li Pei came in the evening, and Rushui also said that Nian Yingxi ran to the yard and cried, so this thing must not be wrong, that is, Li Pei is also interesting to Chun'er.
Nian Yingchun listened to the whole thing, and the depressed mood just now was swept away, afraid that she had heard something wrong, so she didn't dare to look at An Zhimei again, and saw An Zhimei nodding with a smile, before she smiled and laughed, "I really didn't expect Li Pei to have an idea because I rejected that fool, or my mother." ”
An Zhimei smirked, "That's, and my Chun'er is so beautiful, how can it be compared to a fool who is dirty all day?" Besides, this man, which one can stand up to hooking up? ”
"If my mother says so, shouldn't I go to see Li Pei in person tomorrow?" The more Nian Yingchun listened, the more happy she became, she didn't want to wait tomorrow at all, she wished she could see Li Pei now.
An Zhimei saw Nian Yingchun's impatience, and lowered her voice when she landed, and said with a warning, "Chun'er, it's not the time for you to see Li Pei yet, it's best not to go to see Boss Li privately before his birthday." ”
The smile froze on her face, Nian Yingchun was stunned, and she couldn't figure it out, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Naturally, it's for your own good." An Zhimei sighed earnestly, "What you can't get is always the best, and men are even more so for women, anyway, now we all know in our hearts, Li Pei has you in his heart, why are you in a hurry to have a private meeting with him for a while?" Wouldn't it be better to hang his appetite and let him scratch his heart and liver to lose his soul for you? ”
Nian Yingchun was originally a forward-looking character, but now listening to An Zhimei's words, she couldn't help but worry again, "Li Pei's family has a big business, and my daughter is afraid that she will always hang on to others like this, and if they run away again, how can it be good?" ”
As soon as her words came out, An Zhimei laughed, "Silly daughter, during this time, my mother will continue to send people to deliver letters to Li Pei, of course, I won't let the fat on the side of my mouth run into other people's mouths." "She's a daughter, she still has experienced too few things, but it's okay like this, it's simple and easy to fiddle with, and if she really marries into the Li family at that time, she will still listen to herself.
An Zhimei has always been the backbone of Nian Yingchun, and now seeing that An Zhimei said the head of the way, Nian Yingchun not only no longer refutes, but also happily hugged An Zhimei's neck and sprinkled Jiao, "My mother still has an idea, my mother can rest assured, when my daughter marries into the Li family one day, she will definitely serve her mother well." ”
Thinking about the days when she will make a comeback in the future, An Zhimei also laughed, "It's enough to have your words, and it doesn't hurt you for a mother in vain." ”
"This is natural, when my daughter is glorious, I must get rid of that fool first, so that my mother can relieve her anger!"
"Not really." An Zhimei's smile suddenly turned cold, and her eyes also brought a sharp light, "When that day comes, I will definitely return all the shame I suffered today to her, and then strangle that little slut with my own hands!" ”
