Chapter 167: Let's go, play chess
Today, she is wearing a light purple velvet collar with a snow-blue embroidered skirt inside, and the high plate of her hair is only decorated with a velvet hairpin, which is simple and elegant and dignified.
Compared with the first entry into the Hou Mansion, it is already a heavenly difference.
Shen Zhan led Yue Yang to walk towards him seemingly menacingly, Ye Lingwu thought that these two would ignore her, but when they passed in front of her, Shen Zhan stopped.
"Feeling better?" He looked ahead, calm.
Ye Lingwu was stunned for a moment, and Fu replied: "It's all right, thank you Lord Hou for your concern." ”
Shen Zhan was silent, took a step and continued towards the hall.
Ye Lingwu looked sideways in the direction Shen Zhan had left, his face was indescribably calm. It seems that the bright moonlight is reflected in the black pool, but the pool is thousands of feet deep, and the moonlight does not shine into the deep pool, but can only be stored on the surface.
"Girl, it's time for us to go in, you see your hands are red from the cold." Rong Xiu was dissatisfied in a low voice, it was okay to hand over these complications to other first-class guys, Ye Lingwu had to do it himself, and it was false to say that he was not distressed.
The night breeze was howling, but the hall was warm and lively.
As soon as Shen Zhan entered the house, she was pulled by Qin Mingyu to sit beside her, chattering endlessly, causing the others in the room to cover their mouths and snicker.
"Can all the trivial matters in the Southern Regions be solved?" Old Lady Shen looked at the mother and son over there and said.
Shen Zhan said: "It's all solved." ”
Qin Mingyu interjected: "I heard from Scholar Jiang that Your Majesty will let you rest for two more months, and then return to Beijing to report on your work after the New Year." Don't even think about running out, you kid. "It's important for me to spend more time with your mother!!
Shen Zhan hesitated: "But it's ...... in prison."
"Hell what?" Qin Mingyu said unhappily, "Although you are the general of the Zhu Kingdom, you don't need to do everything yourself, right, can General Yue and Captain Qin also share it for you?" ”
Yue Yang's heart fluttered, he glanced at Shen Zhan, and said with a smile: "What the master mother said is that the young master should rest after his hard work in the past few months, and the affairs in prison are still handed over to his subordinates. ”
Shen Zhan frowned lightly and was silent.
At this moment, the warm curtain at the door was opened, and Ye Lingwu walked in with Rongxiu and said, "Old lady, master, the yard has been cleaned up, and I also asked someone to move the luggage in, and after a while, we can be admitted to the hospital." ”
Old Mrs. Shen nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, okay, okay, sit down, you have worked hard, and the girl is now more and more familiar with the trivial matters in the house." ”
Qin Mingyu looked at Ye Lingwu up and down, and said, "Lingwu girl is good, by the way, mother, it has been a lot of hard work for Scholar Jiang to follow us south these days, should we send someone to visit?" ”
As he spoke, Qin Mingyu's gaze fell towards Shen Pan'er, who was drinking tea leisurely, when she heard a mouthful of tea choking into her throat, she coughed twice before saying, "I'm not going!" Auntie, Scholar Jiang is here to be instructed by His Majesty, where his duty lies, what is there to look forward to. ”
Qin Mingyu glanced at Shen Pan'er lightly and said, "You girl is really a piece of wood." ”
Everyone in the room chuckled when they heard this.
Ye Lingwu couldn't laugh, and secretly slandered himself: Shen Pan'er is indeed a piece of wood, and he still doesn't like good jade, but loves rotten wood.
"You also said that Scholar Jiang is under the dictation of His Majesty, and his duty is higher, so he should go to visit, and you are too, Scholar Jiang is traveling far away for the first time, you can take more care of him in Yuhuancheng." Old Mrs. Shen twisted the Buddha beads and stared at the two of them with her eyes like torches.
If the family wants to stand tall, this network is indispensable, and now who in the court does not praise Jiang Yuan's promising future, it is the person who should be befriended, even if the marriage between the two families does not succeed in the future, there is also a layer of "gentleman's friendship" relationship.
Shen Zhan said: "What my grandmother said, my grandson wrote it down." ”
"Just write it down, I'm tired, it's time to rest." Old Lady Shen raised her arm, and Tanchun and Magpie hurriedly went over to support her.
Ye Lingwu left with Mrs. Shen.
This mansion has not been named, but the names of the small courtyards are ingenious and beautiful, Mrs. Shen lives in Tan Yun Pavilion with her courtyard people, Qin Mingyu and the people in the courtyard, and the second-room girl lives in Yuexi Zhai together, and Shen Zhan lives in Qingzhu Courtyard.
Waiting for Mrs. Shen to sleep, Ye Lingwu closed the doors and windows and went out of the house, and it should be time to watch the sky at this time.
Although this mansion is not as wide as the Ningbei Hou Mansion, it can also be called one of the best mansions in the city, and the winter scenery in the house is also chic, Ye Lingwu and Rongxiu can't help but wander around in the garden.
The edge of the garden is full of sycamores, the garden is full of gold, the dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground are unattended, and every step on it can make a light and crisp sound, and the master and servant are taking a leisurely walk, and suddenly there is a sound of footsteps behind them.
Ye Lingwu turned around, and after seeing it clearly through the moonlight, her heart sighed - Shen Zhan led Yue Yang to step on the fallen leaves and walked towards her.
Ye Lingwu wanted to turn her head and leave, but her legs were firmly stiff, and she had no choice but to be blessed, and said, "Please Hou Ye'an." ”
Shen Zhan walked over slowly with his hands behind his back, his eyes were unfathomably black, he looked at Ye Lingwu slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking, the air was quiet and uncomfortable, Ye Lingwu lowered his head, and only felt that the bead petals on his sideburns seemed to be trembling slightly?
After a while, Shen Zhan said: "My cousin is not sleeping yet?" ”
“…… No hurry, no hurry. ”
Ye Lingwu felt perfunctory, and said: "The scenery in the garden is very good, I want to see more." ”
Shen Zhan said: "Although the scenery is good, the winter night in Yuhuan City is cold, and I accidentally contracted the wind chill, which adds trouble. ”
Ye Lingwu raised her head suddenly, only to see the man's expression faint, and she was unhappy in her heart: Trouble is also the trouble of Doctor Tian, what does it matter to you.
Ye Lingwu naturally didn't dare to say this, she only dared to say respectfully: "Don't worry about the Hou Ye, if Lingwu feels cold, he will go back to the house." ”
The air is silent.
Yue Yang on the side, Rong Xiu glanced at each other without a trace.
It's really awkward to listen to these two people talking.
One cares and doesn't dare to say it clearly, and the other doesn't dare to show it.
Shen Zhan frowned, hesitated for a long time, and said, "It's okay if the cousin doesn't want to ask the house, it just so happens that I can't sleep, why don't the cousins play a few games of chess with me?" ”
The corners of Ye Lingwu's mouth twitched twice, and said, "I'd better go over and rest now, it's really cold when it's getting late." ”
“…… No hurry, no hurry. Shen Zhan learned from Ye Lingwugang's tone and said in a strange manner.
"......" Ye Lingwu thought about it and wanted to refuse again, but who knew that Shen Zhan had already taken the first step and led Yue Yang towards the warm pavilion in the garden.
"Let's go, cousin, when I said goodbye last time, I still remember that you said that you want to learn chess well, and it happens that you will be fine tonight." Shen Zhan's tone was quiet, revealing a beak that could not be ignored.
Ye Ling clenched his teeth in a mist of anger.
He actually remembered this, she thought that someone had forgotten it a long time ago, she had known that she would not throw away the chess book, and she hadn't read it for a few days, and now she has forgotten all the contents.
Ye Lingwu hesitated for a long time, and he didn't know where he got the courage to shout at the two backs in front of him: "Master Hou is tired of coming today, it's better to play chess another day, I'm ...... I'm suddenly unwell, Sister Rongxiu, let's go back to the house quickly. ”
After speaking, Ye Lingwu pulled Rongxiu and walked back, without giving the two behind him a chance to speak.
