Qin Mingyu's expression froze.

She has been clothed and fed since she was a child, how can people who live in peace and stability think so much, so she can only hold on to luck and say: "How can it be, mother, the remnants of the previous dynasty have been almost arrested, and yesterday my daughter-in-law also went to the palace to chat with the queen, and the queen said that she also agreed that we should go to a foreign land for reunion." ”

When Mrs. Shen heard this, she really didn't feel at ease and handed over the matter of the trip to her, and said: "It's about the scenery and the moon, the queen doesn't know about the affairs of the court, and at this time, she must be cautious when she goes south." You and the people in your courtyard rarely go far away, so leave this matter to Mama Xuan and Ling Ya, and you don't have to worry about it. ”

Ye Lingwu said abruptly: "Old lady, do you really want to leave this matter to me?" ”

Old Lady Shen said unhurriedly: "You go with me to spend the moon, and these days you have also taken care of Jinghetang in an orderly manner, so I will leave this matter to you." ”

Ye Lingwu pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes." ”

Qin Mingyu didn't say a word, glanced at Ye Lingwu with a leisurely gaze, and turned to look at Zhao and said, "By the way, brother-in-law, the queen mentioned it to me that day, saying that Scholar Jiang was also going to the Southern Regions on the orders of His Majesty, so I took the liberty to ask Scholar Jiang to go south with us." ”

“？” Zhao looked surprised, not good.

Old Lady Shen put down the hot tea bowl in her hand and said, "Why didn't you say anything about this?" ”

Qin Mingyu saw that everyone's faces were solemn, and he smiled unnaturally and said, "Yu Sucheng solved the chaos last month, and Scholar Jiang went south to look for it with His Majesty's will, this matter is not a big deal." ”

Old Lady Shen glanced at her coldly and said, "Is this what I am talking about, what I care about is that you take the liberty to post." ”

In the eyes of everyone in the Hou Mansion of Ningbei, Qin Mingyu, the head of the house, is a little too "self-assertive" in the relationship of the juniors, and the year before last, he matched Shen Zhan and Liu Feiyan in the Shunchang Palace, which made a lot of noise.

In fact, it's good that the two families have intentions, but Jiang Yuan's mind is hard to guess.

Since he explored flowers in high school, many high-ranking families have thrown olive branches and intended to recruit him as a son-in-law, but Jiang Yuan has always politely refused.

Since a few months ago, the Zhao family and Qin Mingyu were in the Jiang Yuan in the Shunchang Palace, and the two of them didn't know how many times they had posted to the Jiang family, and they were politely rejected nine times out of ten.

Clear-eyed people can see what Jiang Yuan means, and the Zhang family is ready to give up, but Qingming Yu, the eldest aunt, refuses to be a big aunt, and is not stubborn, and also says that Jiang Yuan is not interested, the third girl of the Shen family is the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and marrying him is his Gao Pan, and even thinking about asking for marriage after two months.

Qin Mingyu was aggrieved and puzzled: "This Jiang University scholar is going south, and someone is considered a companion, how can it be presumptuous?" ”

Old Mrs. Shen slowly leaned on the hidden sac, held her forehead and said: "Don't think I don't know what you think in your heart, you should worry less about some things, if that girl doesn't like you, don't force it." ”

…… Ye Lingwu's ears twitched when she heard this, she had been in Ningbei Hou's Mansion for so long, and it was the first time she had heard the three words "don't force it" from the mouth of Old Lady Shen, it was really strange, strange.

The small warm pavilion was filled with a strong fragrance of tea, Shen Pan'er was coldly burned by the hot tea in her hand, and she didn't have time to eat pain, but she said excitedly: "Really?!" That's what my grandmother really said? ”

Ye Lingwu nodded and said, "Really, I lied to you." ”

Shen Pan'er said happily: "What about my aunt and mother, what did they say?" ”

Ye Lingwu paused with his hand holding the tea bowl, and recalled: "...... I didn't say a word, but the face of the mistress was quite ugly. ”

"That's for sure, my grandmother has spoken, how dare my aunt and mother refute it."

Shen Pan'er smiled from ear to ear, and after a while, she seemed to remember something again, her smile gradually disappeared, and she said annoyingly: "But grandmother has spoken, and Scholar Jiang still wants to go south with us." ”

Ye Lingwu said lightly, "Hmm", and said: "This is natural, yesterday I went to the dock to rent a boat with Mama Xuan, and Mama Xuan told me that the scholars of Jiang University and the people in their houses should also be together on this trip, and the scale of the building ship should not be slight." ”

Shen Pan'er frowned, and suddenly took Ye Lingwu's hand and said, "Sister Lingwu, I suddenly don't want to go south, can you talk to my grandmother on my behalf?" ”

Ye Lingwu shook his head, withdrew his hands and said, "I won't say, if you don't go to the main mother and the second uncle, you will get angry, you have to say that you should go by yourself, and it is still easy to discuss on the grandmother's side." ”

Shen Pan'er was silent and thoughtful, and only after a while did she pout: "Grandmother has been very talkative recently, and her two grandchildren are not at home, but she loves her granddaughter even more." Speaking of which, I really miss my second brother, and I don't know where he is now. ”

Ye Lingwu didn't say anything, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip quietly.

After being speechless for a long time, she only heard the teapot burning next to the desk gurgling, Shen Pan'er supported her chin with her hands, and asked abruptly: "Sister Lingwu, you also know that my second brother has always been quite stubborn, why did he suddenly agree to be competent to watch the wind?" I haven't asked, but I'm curious, can you tell me? ”

Ye Lingwu was stunned, and smiled: "You ask me, I ask who to go, probably because of the second uncle's reasoning and clear words." ”

"It's strange, my second brother didn't listen to his mother."

Shen Pan'er secretly rolled her eyes, and said in her heart: He estimated that he would listen to you more, but Luohua was ruthless and intentional, but he didn't expect the second young master to have today...... Tut-tut, but Sister Kite is also very good, maybe when these two people come back, the Hou Mansion of Ningbei will have a big wedding banquet.

"Forget it, if you don't say it, I won't ask, I'm still worried about my own business." Shen Pan'er breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter with you?" Ye Lingwu was puzzled.

Shen Pan'er smiled shyly without a trace, and said with a straight face: "It has nothing to do with you, if you really want to know, you have to answer the question I just asked first." ”

Ye Lingwu was silent and shrunk himself into the fox fur.

Ye Lingwu leaned on the soft couch without reluctance, and Rong Xiu carefully added silver charcoal to the stove with tongs, and said, "...... Girl, this is going south immediately, and it won't be long before we can see the Hou Ye who we haven't seen for a long time. I heard that Hou Ye has made many military exploits in the Southern Regions in the past few months, and I don't know if when we arrive in Yusu City, Hou Ye will be able to draw away to greet him? ”

Ye Lingwu heard this, and after coming back to his senses, he sneered lightly: "This time, we are walking with the old lady of the master, and the Hou Ye, as a son and grandson, is naturally going to greet him." ”

Rong Xiu put down the tongs, turned around and said, "But the slave maid heard that there was a big chaos in the Southern Regions last month, will we be in danger of our lives if we go now?" ”

"This time, there are more than 100 guards accompanying the martial arts, and there will be no mistakes, besides, don't you also say that the Hou Ye has repeatedly made military exploits, who dares to move in the southern region of the head of the Hou Mansion in Ningbei? What's more, there is an old lady here. ”

Rong Xiu nodded thoughtfully, and then made the bed, waited for Ye Lingwu to freshen up, and when the night gradually sank, he put down the tent, blew out the lights and withdrew lightly.

Inside the tent, Ye Lingwu shrank in the thick mattress, and his eyes looked at the little sparks in the furnace not far away.

The past few months have passed unconsciously, and it seems to be a lifetime away, from midsummer to severe winter, it seems to be in the blink of an eye, and the quarrel with Shen Zhan feels like a long time has passed, so long that she almost forgot this person.

Knowing that she was going south, she was in turmoil.

I can only keep comforting myself, with so many people accompanying him, Shen Zhan won't pay attention to himself, maybe he is like himself now, he has long forgotten each other.

"Alas......"

Ye Lingwu exhaled, sat up in a depressed mood, put on his clothes and put on a velvet fur, hugged the soup woman who was stuffed in the futon, and quietly slipped out of the yard.
