early morning

Duan Rubian was sitting on the soft couch reading a book, when he saw Tuanzi walking in, he smiled very happily, "Miss, the old lady sent someone to invite Miss over"

Duan Rubian put down the scroll in his hand and frowned, "Grandmother looking for me?" Although she knocked down Duan Xiang last time and made the old lady look at her with admiration, she was just rewarding her with something when she asked for peace, and it seemed a little strange to call her today.

Duan Rufang straightened her clothes and put on embroidered shoes, she has always been unable to sleep well recently, and she doesn't know if it will have something to do with today's incident...... Duan Rubian just wanted to go out, and suddenly thought of something, "Tuanzi, you go to take care of Qing'er today, last time Imperial Doctor Zhao prescribed medicine to him, I don't worry about the maid there, you go and take care of it" Tuanzi was very smart, naturally knew what Duan Rubian was thinking, leaned over and answered yes and ran away quickly.

Duan Rubian walked towards the Jing Pavilion with the green stroke, the old lady in the Jing Pavilion sat upright on the couch, twisting the Buddha beads in one hand, muttering something with her eyes closed, Shui Shi sat down, looking down at the handkerchief in her hand, her eyes were hideous.

As soon as Duan Rubian entered the door, he met Shui's eyes, although it was only for a moment, Duan Rubian still saw the unwillingness in her eyes, Duan Rubian's heart trembled inexplicably, and he saluted the old lady, "I've seen grandmother, mother"

The old lady opened her eyes, got up and sat down with the support of Mama Shen, "It's the right time to come, I've been waiting for you for a long time, three girls, let's go"

Shui got up and helped the old lady, "Mother, this is not very good, if you are still a girl who has not left the cabinet, and she is not yet in time, what should I do if I go to see Lord Huo and Mrs. Huo like this, and collide?"

The old lady glared at Shui Shi fiercely, "What do you mean by this? Why didn't you talk so much when I took Hua'er out in the past?"

Duan Rubian listened to the conversation between the two of them next to him, and suddenly understood, the old lady wanted to visit the Mu family, and she still took her with her, in the past, only the eldest lady Duan Ruhua had this right, but I didn't expect that now she can, presumably Tuanzi already knows, otherwise she wouldn't smile like a flower, no wonder the Shui family would be unwilling, originally only her own daughter had this honor, but Duan Rubian, who suddenly jumped out halfway, was also favored by the old lady, which made her not angry.

Shui Shi saw that the old lady was a little angry, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so after thinking about it, he held Duan Rufang's hand again, "Three girls, this time the old lady will take you to the Taifu Mansion, you must behave well, don't embarrass the old lady"

"That's enough!" The old lady's face darkened, and she scolded the Shui clan loudly, Duan Rubian smiled lowly, the Shui clan's actions today are not very wise, the old lady has always been the first person in the General's Mansion, and she is the first lady of the first emperor's personal title, that has always been the same, although the Shui family has a huge family, but after all, she is the daughter-in-law of the old lady, and it is very unwise to embarrass her mother-in-law like this.

"Old lady......" Shui Shi was stunned, tears came out all of a sudden, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, looking very aggrieved, "Old lady, you misunderstood the concubine, the concubine is worried that the three girls are afraid for a while, which noble person has collided, when the three girls have an accident, and how can there be a good family to propose marriage in the future, the concubine is for the three girls."

The old lady's face was gloomy, "In this case, you should teach the three girls well, instead of saying something useless on the side!"

"Grandmother, mother is for Rufang, Rufang understands, don't blame your mother, isn't grandmother going to visit Mrs. Huo, if it's late, it's not good" Duan Rufang smiled and came out to play a round, now she should not embarrass the Shui family in front of the old lady, the more good she is to the Shui family, the more the old lady treats her, she knows very well what kind of personality Duan Ruhua is, if she has no backers in the house, when Duan Ruhua comes back, she will be unlucky in a few days.

"Well, let's go" The old lady gave Shui a warning look, and went out with Duan Rubian, who looked at Duan Rubian's back and couldn't wait to dig out a few holes.

"Slut! slut!" When Duan Rufang and the old lady disappeared, Shui swept the dishes on the table to the ground angrily, and scolded hatefully, Yan Mama gave Shui a breath, and whispered with low eyebrows, "Madame, this is in the Jing Pavilion, and the wall has ears"

Shui Shi glanced around, his voice lowered, but he still couldn't hide his anger, "This damn Duan Rufang, Duan Xiang, that guy is so stupid! If she was smarter last time, how could she still be so beautiful!" Shui Shi's eyes suddenly darkened, "Do you really want me to take action myself......"

"Mrs. Can't" Mama Yan stopped with a voice, glanced around, and whispered in Shui's ear, "That little slut has a lot of means, if you leave a flaw, it is better to ...... Borrowing a knife to kill"

Shui Shi nodded, "Of course I know this, but Wang Ying and Duan Xiang have been grounded, and only the Ning family is left in the mansion who can't afford to support the waste."

Mama Yan thought for a moment, wrote a word in Shui's hand, Shui's eyes lit up, looked at Mama Yan with appreciation, got up and walked out of the Jing Pavilion, "Let's go, let's visit Aunt Ning." ”

The carriage stopped in front of the Taifu Mansion, and there were a few grandmothers waiting there, Duan Rubian and Lu Fu got out of the carriage first, and then turned around and helped the old lady to walk down, the grandmother standing at the door looked at Duan Rufang and nodded appreciatively, the smile on the old lady's face did not decrease, and her waist straightened up slightly proudly.

Duan Rubian helped the old lady to walk towards the house, but was stopped by the two grandmothers at the door, one of the grandmothers in red bowed to the old lady, "I have seen the old lady Duan, the old lady Huo has something to say, let you follow the slave and maid to this way" said, and made a gesture of invitation towards the house on the left.

Another grandmother in a green gown smiled faintly at Duan Rujian, "Miss Duan San, please go this way with the slave maid, there is a garden in the West Garden, please Miss Duan San go for a walk in the garden, and when Mrs. Huo and Mrs. Duan finish talking, the slave will personally send Miss Duan San out."

Was this a deliberate attempt to keep her from hearing the conversation between the two?

Duan Rubian smiled lightly and patted the old lady's hand, "In this case, Rufang will leave, grandmother has not been in good health recently, and I hope that Mama will take care of Grandmother for Rufang" The red-clothed grandmother nodded, and walked away with the old lady, while the green-clothed grandmother led Duan Rubian and Lu Fu to the West Garden in the opposite direction.

Huofu looks very simple from the outside, but the internal layout is very ingenious, the scenery of the back garden is beautiful, all kinds of flowers bloom all over the yard, surrounded by rockeries, antique pavilions, the chirping of birds one after another, there are a few water birds parked on the huge lake, and they flutter and fly away after a break, the breeze blows on the cheeks, and the mood is also comfortable.

"The third lady will walk around here at will first, Mrs. Huo also instructed the old slave to do things, so I won't accompany the third miss first, please forgive the third miss" Mama Pei saluted Duan Rubian and said, Duan Rubian smiled and waved her hand, "Mama go, I'll stay here, if grandmother and Mrs. Huo finish talking, please come and pick me up"

Mama Pei nodded and walked away, Duan Rufang's eyes deepened, quietly pulled Lu Fu's sleeve, and whispered a few words in her ear, and saw Lu Fu nodding solemnly, and walked away with Mama Pei's figure.

Duan Rubian bit her lower lip, feeling apprehensive in her heart, the old lady came to visit Mrs. Huo on a whim, she used to stay at home, and the relationship with the Mu family was not so close, but today she suddenly visited and brought her with her, the purpose is definitely not pure, now she only hopes that the Mu family will not reveal in front of the old lady that she had designed Qin Biao, otherwise it will be difficult to use the old lady as a backer in the future.

She walked to the pavilion by the lake and sat down, her heart was heavy, her eyes unconsciously glancing in the direction of Lu Fu's departure, and fine sweat oozed from her clenched fists. Just as she was quietly waiting for Midori to come back, there was a burst of laughter not far ahead, and it seemed to be two men. Duan Rubian's pupils dilated, and he quickly got up and wanted to leave the pavilion, but his footsteps froze, the direction from which the voice came from was the only way to leave the backyard, and behind Duan Rubian was the lake, Duan Rubian sighed, she was in a dilemma now, no wonder she had a bad feeling today, it turned out that she was waiting for her here.

Duan Rubian took a few deep breaths, since he couldn't dodge, he would face him head-on!
