Alfalfa went out for a long time, and when she came back, she brought her lunch back. Ji Man was busy sorting out the accounts, and didn't ask her where she went. But looking at the roast chicken for lunch, I still feel very good.
"When the servants go to get the food, listen to some gossip." Clover said gossipingly: "Master, guess what happened?"
Ji Man asked with a face: "What happened?"
"Early this morning, Madam said she wanted to make tea with frost dew on the top of the tree for Master Hou, so she climbed the old plum tree in the garden." Clover smiled ambiguously, "It fell from the tree, None of the maidservants next to her could help her, but she was supported by the young master Biao passing by."
Ji Man was taken aback, Master Biao, isn't he Ning Mingjie? These two still have to hook up, no matter what happens in the middle, is the general plot going the same
"I heard from the passing maids that Madam's expression at that time was so shy." Clover curled her lips and said, "I didn't mean to avoid suspicion at all, and I invited Master Biao to drink tea in the gazebo."
The plot unfolded as expected, but it was a little bit reversed. Why did Wen Wan have a good impression of Ning Mingjie after hearing what Clover said
Ji Man rested his chin and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Let's ignore these messy things."
"No one can take care of Madam, everyone is just watching for fun." Clover smiled and served Ji Man with vegetables, and Ji Man didn't think too much about it, and ate with peace of mind.
Sang Yu does not have such a wealthy habit of taking a lunch break after meals. I used to work so stressful every day, where would I have time for a lunch break? It's the same now, with some sunshine in the winter afternoon, Jiman took the basket to the garden, looking for other flowers that can be used as cream for experimentation.
"Sang Yu?"
As soon as I walked behind a large spherical evergreen, I heard such a voice. Ji Man paused, and looked around to see who was calling him.
"I don't know her very well, but I heard from Yuxuan that she has a bad temper, that's why she was demoted from the main room to a concubine."
It was a gentle voice, and it was obviously not calling her, but talking to someone. The voice came from the other end of Wannianqing.
Ji Man raised his eyebrows, looked up and looked.
There was a chess board in the gazebo, and Wen Wan was actually playing chess with Ning Mingjie, chatting incongruously with each other, looking like an unrestrained activity after dinner.
Here, there is only Sandalwood, a maid beside her, what does Wen Wan want to do
Ji Man retracted her head, squatted down and looked at the pot of poinsettia in front of her, thinking to herself that I came here to pick flowers and not to eavesdrop. This is because they are too blatant, no wonder others.
As far as she knows, Ning Yuxuan is not a magnanimous man. He especially doesn't like others to touch his own things, not to mention the gentleness in his heart. Ning Yuxuan should not be effective, and it may be counterproductive.
Hearing that they played chess for an hour, and didn't say anything about her, Ji Man rubbed his sore legs, sneaked back.
In the evening, I had dinner in the old lady's courtyard, Ning Yuxuan and Wen Wan were both there, Wen Wan always had a innocent and harmless smile on her face, but Mo Yuhou's face was dark, probably because she knew what Wen Wan was doing. What, I feel very upset.
Ji Man enjoyed watching the show, and while picking out the shredded meat from the dish in front of him, he secretly watched their interaction.
The heroine didn't mean to talk to the hero at all, but said a few words to Ning Mingjie. The old lady is still on the table, isn't this noZuonodIe? The old lady didn't like gentleness in the first place, and seeing her throwing face at her son made her feel even more upset.
"Shui Qing's body is almost three months old." The old lady put down her chopsticks, looked at Mo Yuhou and said, "Since the main room has nothing to do, it's also good for me to hug the two children from the concubine's room first. If Shui Qing gave birth to the eldest son this time, I think you should mention her as your aunt, after all, the heir is the eldest."
Wen Wan's face turned pale, and the smile she had just disappeared completely, she turned her head to look at the old lady, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back, and only lowered her head to eat.
Mo Yuhou responded lightly, but he didn't refuse, and his gentle face became even uglier. After the meal, the old lady pulled Sang Yu and was about to talk for a while, but Mo Yuhou said: "I still haven't finished listening to Sang Yu's story. Today, mother will give up her son and give her to me."
This was the first time that Ning Yuxuan got close to Sang Yu in front of everyone. Ji Man was stunned for a moment, then looked at the gentle expression, and understood in her heart that she was the cannon fodder for this scumbag. The effects are the same, they are all used to stimulate the hero and heroine.
He was a little uncomfortable being used by others, and even more upset when he thought of telling him a story. Ji Man answered Mo Yuhou with a smile on his face, turned his head and frowned.
If you want to die gently, don't implicate her innocently.
Not late.
Mo Yuhou leaned against the bed, his long eyelashes drooping, and his expression was a bit lonely. Ji Man put down her bun, finished her grooming, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him and asked, "What's wrong, Lord Hou?"
Ning Yuxuan opened his eyes, and there was something childish in his eyes: "Sang Yu, tell me, who is better looking, Ning Mingjie or I?"
This... Ji Man secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, and then said: "Master Biao has been wearing a mask all the time, so he can't see his face. Naturally, Master Hou is good-looking."
Didn't Nie Sangyu say many years ago that in terms of pure appearance, Ning Mingjie is more like jade? But she couldn't say that, for fear that Ning Yuxuan would strangle her to death in a fit of anger.
"If he took off the mask, I wouldn't look as good as him, would I?" Ning Yuxuan didn't know which muscle was wrong, so he got stuck in the corner and couldn't get out.
Ji Man smiled slightly and said: "In the eyes of slaves, Master Hou is the most beautiful. Isn't there a book? 'My wife is beautiful to me, and I am private. I am beautiful to my concubine, and I am afraid of me.'"
It took Mo Yuhou a while to recover, his face darkened, and he said, "You mean to praise me for being better because you're afraid of me?"
Ji Man blinked innocently, his eyes were so bright that they seemed to be covered with crystal snowflakes.
Ning Yuxuan was slightly absent-minded, and couldn't help pulling her arm closer, looking carefully into her eyes.
Eyes are the windows of the soul, Ji Man knew that he should put some hidden affection in his eyes, thick and pretending to be suppressed, let this man see it, he will understand that he has him in his heart, and he will soften his heart to her in the future.
But this is simply an operation at the level of a movie queen. Ji Man tried his best. He didn't know what Mo Yuhou saw in his own eyes, but he looked much better. He gently pushed her away and said, "In your room, there are fewer Have you replaced the old spices with new incense?"
Change the subject? Ji Man raised his eyebrows, climbed onto the bed and lay obediently on his side, yawned and said, "The incense used to smell boring, so I changed the alfalfa to a fresh one."
Mo Yuhou was silent for a while, and said, "I still prefer the old incense."
Hou Ye is Hou Ye, overbearing to death, even a piece of incense must be ordered by him? Ji Man rolled his eyes and replied with a smile: "I will change it tomorrow, servant girl."
"Yeah." Mo Yuhou was silent for a while, and Ji Man also closed her eyes. This person never does anything, so she can sleep peacefully.
"Today, Wen Wan told me to praise Mingjie, saying that he is superb in chess and that he is gentle and elegant."
Just about to fall asleep, this sentence came from my ear. Ji Man opened his eyelids and listened helplessly. Mo Yuhou had something to say and was feeling uncomfortable, so he had to find someone to talk to.
"She comes from a small family, and she is used to being with me casually, so she doesn't know the rules of the house. Women in the house are not allowed to be too close to other men... although they are not too close."
Mo Yuhou, who always had a serious face, now turned into a chatterbox, chattering non-stop.
"Master Hou is jealous?" Ji Man simply woke him up.
Mo Yuhou paused, and snorted softly, as a tacit consent.
"Madam must be jealous of you, so she gets close to others on purpose." Ji Man said: "Although this method is somewhat out of order, it is also because Madam cares about you."
Ning Yuxuan looked much better, glanced at Ji Man and said, "You can talk."
Ji Man shrugged and said: "Master Biao is indeed Yushu Lanfang. He is very good-looking and has a good temperament. He has a good temper and is gentle. It is said that he does not have any wives and concubines. Such a single diamond king and old five make Hou Ye feel pressured." It's also normal."
Just as his face darkened again, Ning Yuxuan looked at her sideways and said, "In your eyes, Ning Mingjie has so many advantages?"
"Is this a recognized fact?" Ji Man said: "It's no wonder Madam would like to be close to him, because this man is indeed a good man. If Lord Hou doesn't hold on to Madam, Madam may change her mind and leave her."
The heroine in the original book also likes the male second, so she told him in advance as a reminder.
The murderous look in Ning Yuxuan's eyes suddenly became stronger, and he put one hand on Ji Man's neck, and said softly: "Nie Sangyu, let me say it again, I don't want to hear anything from you about Wen Wan being bad. if."
The pressure on the neck was a little frightening, and Ji Man's face turned cold, and he chuckled lightly and said, "It's the servant who made a slip of the tongue, Lord Hou didn't hear it, let the servant go."
Letting go of his hand, Mo Yuhou was still angry. How could he think that Nie Sangyu had gotten better recently? Wouldn't this still slander Wen Wan behind his back? Wen Wan has such a deep relationship with him, how could she turn her heart away!
But he is not in the mansion during the day, but Ning Mingjie is, if Wen Wan and him want to get along, they have a lot of time. More time. Inevitably...
Ning Yuxuan thought for a while, then said in a soft tone: "Sang Yu, starting tomorrow, you should go to Nanyuan more. If Madam wants to get in touch with Ning Mingjie, you can stay with her. If she asks, you can just follow her." Said I ordered it."
It's not enough to use her as cannon fodder, but why should she be used as a pinhole camera? Ji Man was furious, but she could only respond with a smile on her face: "Okay."
