Fei slave behind him: "..."
Xiao Jue only felt her brows beating faintly. She had just returned to Cui Mansion, and before she had time to change her clothes, she heard Cuijiao say that He Yan was dragged by Ling Xiu to the small garden. For a woman like Ling Xiu, he could understand at a glance what she was thinking, but He Yan didn't know anything about the woman's back house. After thinking about it, he was afraid that she would suffer, so he came to put out the fire first.
Who knows, as soon as I came here, I saw her selling melons so complacently, she didn't seem to suffer any loss, but the faces of those women turned blue.
It wasn't too stupid, Xiao Jue was so angry and funny, she didn't step forward, she just stood at the corner of the garden, looked at her coldly, and listened to what shocking and crazy things this person could say.
On the other end, Er Yiniang showed a clear smile, and pouted towards the figure at the corner of the garden: "Look, the guardian is here."
"Really." Si Yiniang clenched her fists in both hands, "Second sister, you're still right to look at people, the little sister admires it!"
"Who can help?" San Yiniang was unwilling to make a mistake in her judgment and said, "What if Young Master Qiao sees that Ling Xiusheng's beauty and temporarily turns his back?"
Aunt Wei frowned: "If you can't speak, don't speak!"
The second aunt smiled happily.
At the other end, He Yan was still talking eloquently: "That's why I said, my sisters, you must learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but you only learn to make yourself happy. If it's just to make men like it, it's better to learn something to control your husband. Before I got married, I also liked romantic love, but after getting married, I felt that everything was just clouds in the valley. Only this trick of mastering a husband is really powerful."
"Really?" These girls are not very old, and although they are sometimes annoying, they are not so twisted. Those who can write their ideas on their faces naturally have no scheming. One girl asked: "Then tell me, what's your husband's trick?"
He Yan cleared his throat and replied sternly: "I'm ashamed to say that, I don't know what my husband's technique is. My husband and I only met once at the Lantern Festival, and I didn't know him. The next day , he came to the door to propose marriage, and I didn't want to marry. I actually didn't want to marry someone so early, but he was so infatuated that he told me that if I didn't marry him, if I didn't agree to marry him, I would jump into the river and kill myself. I thought After all, it is a life, and Quan should do a good deed. Besides, you all know a word, a strong girl is afraid of entanglement, he is so stubborn, so I will marry."
"I thought about it, the trick to mastering a husband is just one thing. First of all, you have to have a face that can make people fall in love at first sight, and you won't marry." She combed her chest The long hair in front, a little embarrassed, said: "Of course, this is not something everyone can do."
"Secondly, if you like him, you have to be less than he likes you. Between men and women, they are almost evenly matched. In small matters, there is always someone who has the upper hand and someone who has the disadvantage. It's like fighting a war. You always think too much about your lover. It's not a good thing. Be kind to yourself, and naturally someone will love you." He Yan made it up, almost believing what he said, "I never please my husband Wanmei, but my husband loves me like a jewel like a jewel. , this is the result."
"Third," He Yan said in his heart, I couldn't make up the third, she smiled slightly, "There are few good people, you have to keep your eyes open and look carefully. Instead of staring at what others are holding, it is better to polish it yourself now. Get new eyes."
Fei Nu secretly glanced at his master, Second Young Master Xiao was standing against the wall, his smile was cold, his eyes were sneering, Fei Nu thought, what did Miss He say about strong girls who are afraid of entanglement, their young master is entanglement? Still stalking her? It's really good to put gold on your face!
Er Yiniang stopped nibbling on melon seeds, stared at He Yan, and said in surprise, "I was wrong? I thought it was something that didn't make sense, but I didn't expect to be a master. Wonderful!"
"Although I don't quite understand what she said," Si Yiniang scratched her head, "it sounds very powerful."
He Yan felt a little at ease, and felt that since the rebirth, he had seen a lot of the world with Xiao Jue, and even learned a lot about seeing people talking and talking about ghosts, but no, now this nonsense, these little girls Frightened for a moment.
However, in a group of people, there are always one or two people who are not easy to deceive. Yan Min'er looked at her and said sarcastically, "Do you really think anyone would believe what you said? Young Master Qiao loves people? Still obsessed with you, Young Master Qiao looks like this kind of person?"
Having said that, the few girls in the clouds and fog that I was listening to just now thought of Qiao Huanqing's desolate appearance, and immediately became a little more awake. No matter how you look at it, Qiao Huanqing doesn't seem to be a stalker of Wen Yuyan, right?
"You must be lying!" said the girl with a loud voice.
"I didn't," He Yan was very sincere. "Our relationship as husband and wife is very good. It's better than you can imagine. Just a few days ago on the Water God Festival, we went to the Lover's Bridge. I was afraid of heights and didn't want to go. , In the end, my husband heard that the people who crossed the bridge together will never be separated, so he hugged me abruptly. If it wasn't for my stern refusal, he might have to walk three times, and he would be destined for three lives."
Xiao Jue: "..."
He couldn't listen to it anymore, he just thought it was unbelievable, how could there be such a person in the world, who said such a lie without blushing or panting, serious and outrageous.
"What's this?" The girl on the side was dissatisfied: "So many people will walk on the bridge of lovers..."
"Let's look at the pictures together." He Yan said.
Ling Xiu was puzzled: "What picture?"
“Spring…”
Before he finished speaking, a light cough sounded, and everyone looked back, and the young man came slowly, as handsome as a beautiful jade. It's not the first time I've seen it, but every time I see it, others will inevitably be confused by this person's face, and praise the good grace in their hearts.
He passed by He Yan, his beautiful eyes fell into He Yan's eyes, revealing a hint of warning.
He Yan also forgot where he had just said, and was about to speak when he heard Xiao Jue say lightly, "Yanyan, what are you doing here?"
Yanyan
Ling Xiu was stunned. It is not uncommon for husband and wife to call small characters, but they are all in private, in front of everyone, unless they are so affectionate that they do not have any taboos.
He Yan held a breath in his chest, but he didn't know what to say. Although she knew that Xiao Jue called Wen Yuyan's "Yanyan", but so coincidentally, she also had the character "Yan", thinking about it like this, it seemed that he was called "Yan Yan".
She replied dumbly, "Just... drink tea and chat."
Xiao Jue nodded, stared at her with squinting black eyes, smiled slightly, and said in a gentle, heart-pounding tone: "Can you accompany me back to the house and sit down?"
"What are you sitting on?" He Yan wasn't used to him talking like this. He just felt that the eyes around him were like knives, flying towards her with a "swish swish". It was really frustrating. It was just a "liar", and Xiao Jue didn't say much. She only looked at her softly, and she could receive so many jealous eyes.
Who doesn't say that the second son of Xiao is amazing
"Accompany me to practice the piano." The young man's face was like a beautiful jade, his eyes were like stars, and the blue silk tied by the jade crown was soft and cold, hanging on his shoulders. He stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the top of He Yan's hair, holding Boundless Doting.
The people who were watching couldn't wait to push He Yan away and stuff their heads under the young man's hands.
"Okay... Okay." He Yan calmed down, stood up, and looked up again with a shy expression, "Sisters, I'm sorry, my husband wants me to go back to practice the piano with him." She He sighed again, and said very annoyed: "The strong girl is afraid of entanglement, this sentence is true."
He Yan turned around and walked away with Xiao Jue in his arms. The group of people behind them looked at each other in dismay. After a long while, Ling Xiu threw the handkerchief, bit her teeth, and wiped her face with her hand. Yan Min'er was startled: "What's wrong with you?"
Ling Xiu was so angry that she cried.
When the plate of melon seeds came to an end, Si Yiniang clapped her hands, and said in a still unfulfilled voice, "Is this gone?"
"I want to see myself looking for a storybook." Concubine Wei groaned, "How could Young Master Qiao show you a play?"
"Don't say it, this is much better than the Acacia class," Er Yiniang held her chin in her hand, "Looking from a distance, the moment when Young Master Qiao was protecting his wife, it was strangely heart-wrenching. I thought... "
"What are you thinking about?" Aunt Wei said, "Don't make trouble for me."
"Good sister, I'll just talk about it," Er Yiniang smiled charmingly, "We're so old, even if we want to spend time with someone, no one will hold us."
San Yiniang didn't say anything sour, but muttered: "Mrs. Qiao is lucky to find such a husband."
"How can you only see that Mr. Qiao is not bad," Si Yiniang rolled her eyes at her, "I see that Mrs. Qiao is also an interesting person. If you were surrounded by people like this, you would have been crying and jumping into the river. Go, look at others, what do you mean by four or two thousand pounds. The trick to controlling a husband is not easy, you should learn more, Third Sister."
…
At this moment, He Yan, who possessed the enviable "know-how of controlling her husband", was on the way back to the yard with Xiao Jue.
He Yan didn't dare to let out the air along the way, didn't look up at Xiao Jue, and didn't say a word. There is no doubt that since this person appeared at the time, it is obvious that he did not come here. Maybe he stood behind for a long time, and Xiao Jue probably heard her words that smeared Xiao Jue's image.
It was all to blame that the girls were so talkative and noisy that they didn't teach her to hear Xiao Jue's footsteps. It was so lively that she didn't know what Xiao Jue was thinking at the moment, she must be very angry. How can I calm him down when I go back? Apologize before he gets angry
Just thinking about it, the yard is already in front of you. When He Yan and Xiao Jue went back, they also saw Lin Shuanghe who was standing in the yard talking to the maid. Lin Shuanghe, an apprentice, didn't know what to say to the newly recognized maid and sister, and made the little maid blushed. , laughing wildly.
When he looked up, he saw He Yan and Xiao Jue coming back. Lin Shuanghe greeted them, "Master, Madam is back? Where did you go?"
He Yan replied embarrassedly: "Drink some tea and talk later."
She followed Xiao Jue back to the house. As soon as she entered the house, she bumped into Xiao Jue head-on and almost fell into the other's arms. Xiao Jue glanced at her lightly, reached over her body, and pushed the The door was closed.
He Yan: "..."
"Sit." He turned around and sat down at the table, his calm tone made He Yan smell a hint of guilt.
He Yan quickly sat down opposite him.
"Why don't you talk?" Xiao Jue raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a half-smiling smile: "Didn't you speak well just now, strong girl?"
He Yan was shocked, and he heard it!
She said: "Captain, you know that they come to find fault every once in a while, and I'm also very annoying. It's an expedient solution. Can I ask, when did you come, and how much did you hear my words?"
Xiao Jue sneered: "What's the difference?"
"The difference is the content of my apology to you."
Xiao Jue stared at her sideways for a while before saying, "Miss He, do you not take your own reputation seriously, or do you not take my reputation seriously?"
"I'm sorry," He Yan apologized sincerely, "but I think now that we are Young Master Qiao and Miss Wen, it should be fine if we talk about your relationship more closely. After all, between husband and wife, there is nothing wrong with intimacy."
Xiao Jue couldn't bear it any longer: "Are you talking about intimacy?"
"Isn't it?"
"If I hadn't come here just now, what were you going to say, what did you and I watch?" He was so well-bred in his bones that he couldn't say those two words.
But He Yan was obviously not as particular as he was, so he said cheerfully when he heard the words: "You're talking about Chuntu!"
Xiao Jue pinched his forehead and said, "You don't have to say it so loudly."
He Yan lowered his voice and asked suspiciously, "Let's look at the spring map together, which shows that we have an excellent relationship. Is there anything wrong with this?"
When they were in the military camp, the men expressed their fateful friendship, probably sharing the treasure map they treasured with their brothers. If the relationship is not that good, ask for a loan and do not lend. It's even more so between husband and wife. Two people look at the picture together. What kind of glue is this, and the piano and se are harmonious
Xiao Jue's face was gloomy and water was dripping, and he slowly asked back, "Who told you that looking at pictures together is a good relationship?". Who is this? It is natural to say such words. He Sui taught her daughter so, and she didn't even understand what to say and what not to say? Does she know that if she didn't show up today to block what she was going to say next, what she said would be enough to shock everyone in Jiyang City.
"I..." He Yan suddenly stopped, "I think so myself. And after you read it at the time, our relationship was pretty good, and it didn't cause any estrangement?"
"When did I see it?" Xiao Jue's face was ashen.
"You just watched it at the time," He Yan insisted, "It is also a look at a glance. We have already watched it together."
He was slightly annoyed: "I didn't watch it."
"you look at it."
"I do not have."
"Forget it," He Yan said, "if you want to say you don't have it, then you don't have it."
Xiao Jue suddenly felt a headache, she was clearly talking nonsense, how could it still seem like she was making trouble unreasonably.
"You talk nonsense like this, don't take your and my reputation seriously, even the reputation of Qiao Huanqing and Wen Yuyan will be destroyed by you." He sneered slightly.
He Yan thought for a moment and said, "I see, I won't tell you and I to watch the Spring Picture together in front of outsiders in the future."
"I didn't watch it with you." Xiao Jue emphasized again.
"Then I can see for myself, okay?" He Yan was puzzled, why did Xiao Jue keep brooding over this matter.
"Don't look at it yourself," he raised his eyebrows and warned in a cold voice, "Do you know what you said just now? Strong girl."
He Yan "cough cough cough" was choked by himself. She begged in a low voice: "Captain, don't call me a martyr, it sounds like I'm swearing."
"Oh?" Xiao Jue said with a half-smile, "but I see what you said is very happy, if you don't marry, if you can't marry, I will jump into the river. I can't see that Miss He is not tall, and she is playing in her head. Quite a lot."
"Isn't that to prove that you have a heart for me like a rock?" He Yan was helpless, "I just want them to give up, otherwise they come to me every once in a while, who can bear this? You can naturally rely on beauty to commit murder, but the unfortunate one is I, Governor, you must have some sympathy."
"I have no sympathy?" Xiao Jue smiled angrily. If it wasn't to help her out and teach Ling Xiu not to do useless things, he wouldn't have to do those extraordinarily crooked actions in front of others. To this day I still feel uncomfortable.
"Why should I have sympathy?" He said indifferently: "Aren't you skilled in controlling your husband? Just hook your fingers and you can make your husband dote on you alone. It sounds like your husband is more sympathetic."
He Yan: "..."
"If you have a face that makes people look at you, it means you don't want to marry," Xiao Jue's lips curled slightly, smiling playfully, staring into her eyes and said slowly: "You love you like a jewel, but you don't like him as much. He loves you, and he is still infatuated with you. He insists on making a fate with you for three lives. Martyr, are you a little too ruthless?"
He Yan got goosebumps when he heard this "strong woman". She hurriedly moved the stool closer to Xiao Jue, grabbed his arm, and flattered: "That's right! How could a person as beautiful and handsome as our governor be the one who stalks him? Except for the governor, no one is qualified to be called a strong woman. If the governor wants to have three lives with people, let alone a bridge, a mountain of knives! No one can be ruthless to the governor, no one!"
"You didn't say that just now." He said leisurely.
"I was lying just now, but now I am telling the truth." He Yan said, "You must believe me!"
The girl's eyes were clear and firm, like the wild cat he met in the yard, it would fry when it stepped on its tail, but when it jumped up and was touched, it would be extraordinarily well-behaved.
A smile flashed across his eyes very quickly, but it disappeared in an instant, and said lightly: "Let's look at less messy things in the future," paused, and then said: "Forget it."
He Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this person is really not easy to deceive, but he just said a little... not so glamorous, just so angry. It seems that Second Young Master Xiao really cares about his image in the eyes of others.
Thinking of this, He Yan said next to him: "Captain, don't just read this. Before this, I also said a lot of good things about you. For example... I said that you are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and there is nothing in the world. No. You must show a lot in front of them next time, enough to prove what I said is true."
Xiao Jue sneered: "I'm a street performer?"
"... That's not true." He Yan scratched his head. She thought for a while, and said to Xiao Jue, "But next time, if there is such a thing, and there are people who don't wink over here to ask for trouble, Governor, you must cooperate with me, and show that we are deeply in love with each other, and the love of husband and wife. , maybe in this way, they will retreat in spite of difficulties and no longer have nothing to do?"
Xiao Jue raised her eyebrows: "Cooperation?"
He Yan nodded.
He glanced at He Yan, "If you beg me, I can think about it."
He Yan: "I beg the Governor."
Xiao Jue: "..."
Did you say it so easily? He frowned slightly, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "So spineless, what kind of a strong girl is she called."
"I said don't call me a strong girl," He Yan said angrily, "Captain, you are really naive."
"Oh." He raised his eyebrows and said word by word, "Mighty girl."
"childish!"
…
However, since the garden incident, I don't know if He Yan's words played a role, or if Xiao Jue finally showed a clear and light expression of the impact on his beloved wife's love. For two consecutive days, the whole Cui house was quiet. Incredible. There are no ladies in Jiyang City who want to come and chat with Madam Qiao over tea.
Hong Qiao took out the "tears" from the box, and said, "Today, when the lady enters the palace, just wear this."
He Yan nodded: "Okay."
Princess Mengji held a banquet in the palace today, and preached to He Yan and Xiao Jue to attend, saying that there were guests coming, and they didn't know who they were. Cui Yuezhi was still a little puzzled, "Why did His Highness call you two but not me?"
He Yan knew very well that in Mu Hongjin's heart, the identities of her and Xiao Jue had been exposed. If Cui Yuezhi was there, it would always be inconvenient to speak. Only a distinguished guest came, but asked her and Xiao Jue to accompany her. Why, the other party is someone they know
But I can't think of it, and I'll find out when I get to the palace. After Hong Qiao dressed He Yan, He Yan went out. Xiao Jue was already waiting outside and was talking to Liu Buwang. These few days, Liu Buwang was absent during the day and only came back at night. When he came back, it was too late, He Yan had already slept, and there was no time to talk to Liu Buwang. Seeing Liu Bu forget now, he is about to go out again.
"Master," she said.
In fact, several times, He Yan wanted to ask Liu Buwang if he wanted to meet Mu Hongjin, but it was someone else's business, so he couldn't get involved too much. Besides, what happened between the two of them, only he knows.
Liu Bu Wang smiled and nodded to her: "A He, be careful."
He Yan nodded. Nowadays, there may be Uto people mixed in Jiyang City, and there may not be people who have not seen Xiao Jue. It is not a bad thing to be careful in everything.
Fei Nu and Chi Wu followed as the driver, and Lin Shuanghe stayed in the Cui Mansion, so there was no need to go together. He Yan and Xiao Jue got into the carriage, and He Yan asked: "Captain, you said that today, Princess Mengji specially asked you and me to go to the palace for a banquet, but she did not call Cui Zhongqi, that is to be concerned about our identities. A distinguished guest came, could it be... The distinguished guest knows our identity? Who is it?"
Xiao Jue lowered her eyes, her emotions were unclear, and her voice was extremely flat.
"The people from Shuojing."
