Chapter 120: Wishful thinking

Xia Yihai's eyes were filled with silence, and the old lady looked at him like this, and only felt bitter in her heart.

This is the most outstanding and proud son she once had, but she has been rubbed away by the love of her children, and she has become more and more inactive and mediocre.

What a terrible thing it is to be immersed in the past. Perhaps, it was because he had lost the reason to work hard.

"Haven't you ever thought that it was really just a misunderstanding back then......"

Without waiting for the old lady to finish speaking, Xia Yihai's face suddenly changed and he stood up, his eyes jumping with complicated mania, as if if the old lady continued to speak, he would do something terrible.

"Mother, don't talk about the past, the child won't disturb your rest. ”

Leaving such a sentence, Xia Yihai had already turned around, and his tall figure quickly disappeared into the cold and gloomy snow outside, leaving only a solemn and angry atmosphere.

Looking at the departing back, the old lady let out a long sigh.

Every time this topic is mentioned for so many years, his son has an attitude of avoiding it, I am afraid that he himself does not dare to think deeply, living in resentment may be more relaxed than living in regret.

At this moment, on the other side, in the courtyard of Bihe.

"Hey, the third miss has been wronged, the concubine is really distressed, how can you say that Aunt Ruan is so ignorant of what to do, and dare to instigate Xia Qing to wronged the third miss, it's really hateful!"

As soon as Aunt Du entered the house, she eagerly grabbed Xia Qianwei's hand, and her expression vividly interpreted her concern.

"How does Aunt Du know that I was wronged?"

But she didn't want to, Xia Qianwei actually smiled faintly, a flash of light crossed her eyes, and she didn't miss the fleeting stiffness on Aunt Du's face.

When such a thing happened, no one in the house dared to come to her Bihe Courtyard to walk around, but the woman in front of her was wearing a bright rose-red dress, and her hair was carefully arranged with pearls and jade nays, and she looked like she was in a good mood.

I believe that this time, she didn't come to ask for warmth, right?

Aunt Du replied with an unnatural smile, "The third miss is really humorous, then Xia Le is simply to blame, she is a little concubine, and the third miss doesn't bother to dirty her hands." It's just that now, Aunt Ruan is useless, but there are so many people up and down the house, and so many things, the third lady always has to share it for the old lady and the general. ”

It turned out that she came to take Aunt Ruan's place.

Xia Qianwei slowly lowered her eyes, and her tone was full of modesty, "Aunt Du said with a smile, Qianwei is still young and has no experience in running a family, grandmother will definitely find a suitable candidate." ”

"Isn't it, besides, the third lady still has to get along with the young master Leng a lot, and this kind of worry will be left to the elders, right? The concubine also helped the eldest lady manage the accounts before, and she happened to be idle recently...... The third lady will go to Fushou Yuan in the early morning to accompany the old lady to burn incense and worship the Buddha?"

She smiled more and more flatteringly, and her words had come to this point, how could Xia Qianwei not understand that she wanted her to pull her in front of the old lady, this wishful thinking was indeed loud.

However, after waiting for a long time, Xia Qianwei changed her words, "What kind of rouge is used on my aunt's body, why is it so sweet?"

I saw Aunt Du's eyes roll, and she came over with a little mystery on her face, "The third lady is about to make a gift, and the marriage with Young Master Leng is not far away, but the concubine heard that the third princess did not give up, and the third lady still hurried to do the matter, so as not to have too many dreams at night!"

She paused, glanced back at the outside of the house, and saw Ruhua and Rumei standing guard at the door before she continued.

"My rouge is made of rose material, the fragrance is pleasant, there is no man in the world who doesn't like it, with the current appearance of the third lady, if it is the icing on the cake, can the young master Leng still be able to hold it?!"

"Rose ......"

Xia Qianwei seemed to mention it inadvertently, but Aunt Du didn't think about it, "Yes, I will send it to the third lady when I turn around as a concubine, but ...... Don't let a third person know. ”

To put it bluntly, who would use such a thing as a serious girl? But Aunt Du thought that Xia Qianwei had loved Leng Yuhan so much in the past, and dared to do anything shameless, where would she care about such a trivial matter?

Now she only thinks that Xia Qianwei can say a few kind words for her in front of the old lady, and it doesn't matter what kind of face she has.

The eldest lady went to Lei Ruo Temple, and Aunt Ruan, who was an eyesore, was going crazy, if she couldn't seize such a good opportunity, she would have no chance in this life!

"Then ...... Thank you, Aunt Du. Xia Qianwei seemed to hesitate for a moment, this thank you made Aunt Du suddenly feel overjoyed, and she greeted her for a while before getting up to leave, "Let that girl Rumei go to my yard to pick it up, and send the rouge to the third lady tonight!"

After the happy woman left, Xia Qianwei gradually restrained her expression.

Originally, in order to compete for favor, it was not uncommon for concubines in this kind of mansion to use various means, but is this really a coincidence?

Is there anything related to Aunt Du and Xia Le's death......

Ruhua returned to Xia Qianwei's side with some apprehension, and asked cautiously, "Miss, do you really want to help Aunt Du?"

Xia Qianwei clearly saw the abandonment in the picturesque eyes, she just smiled lightly, help? I never said that I wanted to help her from beginning to end, right? Some people's fox tails will only show when they are in a hurry, but we can wait and see......

Soon, Rumei cautiously came back from Aunt Du's yard.

Her face was a little red, as if she had heard of this kind of thing, and carefully put the box of rouge with a bewildering smell into Xia Qianwei's hand.

"Recently, Aunt Du will come to you frequently, do you know how to do it?"

"The slave understands. ”

Xia Qianwei gave a look, and the two maidservants in front of her immediately withdrew from the house.

Her eyes moved slightly, and as soon as she opened the box of rouge in her hand, a different kind of breeze blew, and the candlestick on the table immediately shook, and her tone immediately sank.

"If His Royal Highness the King of Youyou has something important, can you pick an earlier?"

The Qi guards behind him were suddenly a little embarrassed, in fact, he came very early, but when he saw that the aunt of the Xia family was there, he had been waiting in the dark.

The man had a serious expression on his face, and he thought that Xia Qianwei was annoyed and angry because she was bumped into the private affairs of her daughter's family.

"There is a subordinate who doesn't know whether to say it or not. ”

Well?

The other party paused, and then his eyes fell on the box of rouge, "I'm afraid that Young Master Leng doesn't like this kind of means, and the third young lady still doesn't need it." ”
