Chu'an County Government.

Xu Mansion is a well-known gentleman in Chu'an County, and Quexue has long known the name of Xu Disheng, the son of Xu Mansion, so it is not difficult to find where Xu Mansion is.

"Girl, I have told you many times, the son is not in the house at this time, after getting married a few days ago, now he is out with the young lady to play in the mountains and rivers. ”

A guard in front of the mansion looked at the white-clothed girl in front of him, his face full of helplessness.

Quexue shook her head and said, "I naturally know what you said, but I am just standing on the side of the street waiting at this time, and I don't want to force my way in, so you want to drive me out?"

Xu Disheng's marriage, she had already heard the guards say it several times.

It's just that after going through a lot, her mood has changed a lot, no matter what the real mood fluctuations in her heart are, they will not be as easy to show as before.

The guard became more and more speechless, and said: "But girl, you have been standing in front of the mansion for a long time now, not only have you not eaten a grain of rice, but you have not even touched a drop of water, if you starve to death in front of the Xu mansion, won't you get us into a lawsuit for no reason?"

Quexue was silent for a moment, took out a shriveled cold hard cooking cake from the cloth bag hanging from the waist of her snow-white skirt, put it to her mouth, and ate it in small bites.

This is when she left the Eternal Life Palace the day before yesterday, Liu Zi'an brought dry food from her home in Qingxi Village, which was originally a whole cookcake, and Quexue had already eaten half of it on the way to Chu'an County Mansion.

The whole body was already sore and weak, and she could barely stand on her feet, if it weren't for the two bowls of water she had begged for two bowls of water to drink in the tea shop outside the Chu'an County Mansion before, I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to walk here at all.

"That's it," the guard couldn't help but be a little soft-hearted when he saw that she was so beautiful and pretty, but she seemed to be really poor, "You wait here, I'll go to the kitchen of the people in the house to get you a steamed bun." ”

After saying this, he turned around and walked straight into the Xu Mansion.

The cooking cakes have already been dry and hard, and they are really not delicious, but Quexue doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all, chewing slowly, and there are thousands of thoughts in her heart.

Once upon a time, he was still a carefree tailed demon, even if he had devoured a lot of human races before, but it was just the instinct of the monster, and it was a bit far-fetched to say that he was doing evil.

The world has changed, and now she has become a very weak Terran girl, not to mention that she has a strong demonic power in her body like before, even if she is hungry for a long time like this, her body is a little unbearable.

If it weren't for the more than ten days of resting in the Eternal Life Palace before, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to get out of the scope of Qingxi Village.

In a trance, a somewhat helpless voice came from the side of his ear.

"I'll give this to you, take it, but I still have to advise you, you won't have any results if you wait here, because I really didn't lie to you, the son really went out of the house with the young lady, and he won't return in the next few days, and if the lord waits to return and finds that you are lying in front of the mansion and not leaving, I'm afraid you will be in danger." ”

The guard muttered as he handed a large white steamed bun that was vaguely warm to Quexue.

Xu Yuanwai is kind and charitable, and he is a well-known good person in the Chu'an County Government, but only the subordinates who have served in the Xu Mansion all the year round know that there is another side that Xu Yuanwai does not know.

"What's going on?"

A warrior who seemed to be in charge walked out, pointed to Quexue who was standing on the side, and asked the guard.

"Steward Du, this woman said that she was the old acquaintance of the son, and she came here this time, so she had to wait here. ”

This warrior is Du Yan, who brought Xu Disheng back to the Chu'an County Mansion from the waters of Qinglian.

Du Yan nodded, glanced at Quexue again, and said with some doubts: "Since it is the old acquaintance of the son, why don't you invite you into the mansion to settle it properly, and let her wait in front of the mansion?"

The guard shook his head and smiled bitterly, leaned in front of Du Yan and whispered: "Du Guan doesn't know anything, with the young lady's hypocritical temperament, if she finds that there is an extra young girl in the mansion after she returns, and even says that she is the so-called old acquaintance of the son, will the young lady lose her temper because of this and blame me? The little one didn't dare to make her own decision to let her enter the mansion because of this matter, if the young lady really blamed it at that time, the little one couldn't afford it." ”

"Unexpectedly talking about the young lady!" Du Yan glared at him, but he also knew what he was embarrassed about, shook his head and sighed, "It's not a way to let her stand in front of the mansion all the time, it's just that." ”

After saying this, he walked directly down the tall and large steps of the Xu Mansion, looked at Quexue and said, "Girl, are you really the old acquaintance of the son?"

Quexue said softly: "There is no evidence. ”

Du Yan glanced at the small half of the baked cake and the snow-white steamed bun in her hand, and then carefully looked at her pretty and beautiful face, and had a little plan in her heart, waved her hand and said: "Come on, arrange an ordinary guest room for this girl in the outer house, and settle her down for the time being." ”

At that moment, an ordinary-looking maid walked out, peeked at Quexue, and whispered, "Yes, Steward Du." ”

Du Yan looked at the figure of Quexue and the maid walking into the Xu Mansion, his eyes flashing.

The guard was a little puzzled, and said, "Steward Du, you ......."

Du Yan glanced at him and said lightly: "To be a subordinate, the most important thing is to learn to observe words and colors, this girl looks exquisite, although the clothes are white and elegant, but they are also extraordinary, but she is so poor, at this time, it is the old acquaintance of the son, what do you think she will be?"

The guard's eyes lit up, and he said: "It's the daughter of a rich family that Gongzi met when he was away, and it is more likely that he was a confidante who had an overnight love with Gongzi, but later because of some changes, his family fell in the middle of the road, his parents died, and he fell into despair, so he came to seek refuge with Gongzi!"

In just a few breaths, he had already imagined many stories between his son-in-law and the girl in white clothes.

Du Yan patted him on the shoulder and slowly walked into the Xu Mansion: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, no wonder you can only watch the door in front of the mansion, you still need to learn more, see more, and think more." ”

Only the guards were left standing alone in front of the door of the mansion, and they thought about it for a long time, but they didn't come up with a reason.

In fact, Du Yan is just pretending to be profound, his idea is very simple, this is the Xu Mansion, no matter how much the son does not fight or grab, the status of the young lady will never be as good as the son, whether this woman is the old acquaintance of the son or not, it is always right to settle down first.

Don't seek reactive power, but seek no fault, this is Du Yan's most real consideration.

Quexue sat alone in the clean and spacious guest room, stroked the wooden couch in her hand, looked at the delicate and fine wood grain on it, and muttered: "This world is so real, every grass and tree, a flower, a piece of cooking cake, a steamed bun, so many people, so many complex emotions, everything is so real, why is it so false?"
