The General's Mansion only ushered in a short spring, and then fell into an increasingly cold winter again.

Everyone had a feeling of being in a dream, a few days ago, there was still the laughter of the sixth young master in the house, but today it was rumored that the sixth young master was gone, and he didn't even do the funeral, so the general ordered that Xia Heng's matter should not be mentioned again, no one knew what happened, but he felt that the evil door was very evil.

In Yirong Courtyard, Xia Xiang, who was sitting in the attic, calmly turned her head and looked at the little maid who came in with the medicine at this time, "What are they doing down there?"

From her point of view, she could clearly see that in the courtyard below, several subordinates were mysteriously burying something.

The little maid's expression changed slightly, and she hesitated for a moment before whispering back.

"Yes, it's a string of sandalwood beads that I rewarded before burying the sixth young master......"

Xia Xiang's lotus-like clear and well-behaved little face had a faint expression, but she smiled lightly, "Do you feel unlucky?"

For some reason, the little maid in front of her only felt that Xia Xiang's smile was panicking, this Ninth Miss was the most temperamental master in the entire general's mansion, so she dared to tell the truth to her face.

But recently, she felt more and more uncomfortable, especially after the sixth young master returned home, Miss Nine's eyes often had an indescribable weirdness.

Even if she is smiling, it gives people a feeling of cold back.

"Slave maid dare! slave maid dare!"

Xia Xiang couldn't help frowning, she slowly leaned over and helped the handmaid who was so frightened that she fell to her knees that she was scared to the ground, "Did I say something wrong? If even you hate me, no one wants to be with me." ”

Seeing that she had regained her soft, weak, aggrieved and soft appearance, the little maid gradually relaxed.

"Slaves, slaves don't hate Miss Nine......"

"That's good, has my aunt eaten?"

Yesterday, Aunt Du was knocked unconscious by Xia Yihai and carried back, so she was locked in the house, and the breakfast sent did not move at all, but from time to time there were a few terrible cries from the house, and there was no movement.

Only Xia Xiang knows that her aunt is becoming less noisy and less noisy, which means that she already hates it to the extreme.

The little maid shook her head, the lunch sent to Aunt Du still hadn't touched it, she thought she would see a worried look on Miss Nine's face, but she didn't want her to smile again.

"Auntie needs a little time. ”

She seemed to think of something, "I heard that the Zhenguo Mansion sent a carriage again, but it came to pick up the third sister?"

The little maid didn't know why Xia Xiang suddenly mentioned Xia Qianwei, so she nodded immediately, and saw that the other party was fascinated, and her tone was full of envy, "It seems that the third sister will get married soon." ”

......

At this time, Xia Qianwei had already come to the Zhenguo Mansion, and Mrs. Leng sent a message, saying that there was something important to discuss.

But as soon as she stepped out of the carriage, she heard an anxious voice coming from the corner, "Sister-in-law, you, you come here!"

When Xia Qianwei heard the reputation, she saw Leng Yuyao sneakily hiding behind a pillar, and was waving at her mysteriously.

“...... The little lord should call me by my name as before. ”

"Oh, none of this matters, but you brought a gift today?"

Leng Yuyao's expression was indescribably serious, Xia Qianwei frowned slightly, and shook her head suspiciously.

The little girl couldn't help but scream in disbelief, "What?!! How can you go to see your future mother-in-law empty-handed, this is too rude, isn't it?"

Xia Qianwei immediately caught the message in her words, the wife of General Zhenguo is back?

The general's wife is a devout Buddhist believer, who left the Zhenguo Mansion two years ago to go to various monasteries to lead practice and promote Buddhism, and after learning about the general Zhenguo, she rushed back recently.

Seeing Xia Qianwei's unaware appearance, Leng Yuyao was so anxious that she jumped to her feet, "It must be my mother who doesn't let my grandmother tell you, no, you wait!"

So today, in fact, this lady of Zhenguo wants to see her?

Xia Qianwei fell into a thought, and soon Leng Yuyao asked Chun Nuan to bring a gift box over, "This is the most famous embroidered shawl in Suzhou and Hangzhou, the color and style are my mother's favorite, you can take it in a while, don't thank me too much!"

The little girl looked like she was invited, and Xia Qianwei just smiled faintly.

"Thank you for your kindness, it's just ......"

Before she could finish speaking, Leng Yuyao's face suddenly changed, and she pulled her sleeve to look at the comer.

"Mama Kong......"

I saw a stern-faced and well-dressed grandmother coming to meet her, and her eyes at Xia Qianwei flashed with surprise, but she quickly fell into a cold color.

"This must be Miss Xia San, right? Madame is waiting for Miss in the backyard. ”

There was a hint of disdain in the other party's tone, and then she glanced at Leng Yuyao deeply, Xia Qianwei clearly felt that the little girl beside her couldn't help shrinking her neck, obviously very jealous.

The subordinate still has such a condescending attitude, and looking at the nervous appearance of the little county lord, Xia Qianwei already understands that this lady of Zhenguo is afraid that she will not be good.

Sure enough, there was a solemn and rigorous atmosphere in the back garden of the Zhenguo Mansion, and all the subordinates were waiting on the side, for fear that there would be a mistake.

As soon as Xia Qianwei appeared, Old Madam Leng smiled kindly.

"Kid, quick, come here. ”

The girl Yingying came to her and saluted respectfully, "Qianwei has seen the old lady and the general's wife. ”

Xia Qianwei lowered her eyes and stared, and felt a sharp gaze fall on her body.

Next to the old lady sat a cold-faced woman who was plainly dressed but dignified and elegant, graceful and decent.

Her facial features are three-dimensional and heroic, and her eyes are like snow-capped mountains in the cold winter, far-reaching but sharp. There was an awe-inspiring sense of solemnity in his expression, his expression was cold and majestic, and although there was a smile on his lips, there was no sense of cordiality.

Her temperament is the same as Leng Yuhan, and she is looking at Xia Qianwei with a scrutinizing gaze at the moment.

"Everyone who comes is a guest, so there is no need to be polite. ”

Mrs. Zhenguo's voice was calm but there was an undisguised sense of alienation, and the cold old lady on the side couldn't help but shake her head in her heart.

She knows the temperament of her daughter-in-law very well, and specially picked out that Yuhan was not in the house today, and called the girl over, afraid that she wanted the third lady to retreat.

Leng Yuyao next to her tensed her nerves at this time, and her cautious appearance was as lively as usual.

She stared at Xia Qianwei's back anxiously, only thinking that the other party hadn't opened his mouth to give the gift?

"Mother, Miss Xia San also brought you a gift!"

The little girl finally couldn't help but open her mouth, Mrs. Zhenguo raised her eyebrows coldly, and glanced at her with a little displeasure, Leng Yuyao immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to look at her.

At this time, the picturesque behind Xia Qianwei also understood the scene in front of her, and immediately carefully presented the gift box to Fang Cai.

The grandmother who led the way took it expressionlessly and opened it in front of everyone, and the old lady Leng smiled happily when she saw it.

"The child has a heart, daughter-in-law, look at it, it's still your favorite color. ”

Mrs. Zhenguo just glanced at it meaningfully, and then she noticed the worried face of her youngest daughter, and she couldn't help but have a gleam in her eyes.

"Yao'er, didn't you also prepare a gift for your mother? ”

What the?!

Leng Yuyao's face changed instantly, and under the serious eyes of Mrs. Zhenguo, she suddenly felt that there was nothing to hide......
