The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 182 Coincidence
There are always coincidences in the world, but some of them are arranged by God in the dark, and some coincidences are deliberately done by someone.

Xu Wanning's brother Dalang Kun will be five years old after this year. Although he has just reached the age of Kaimeng, Xu Wanning is eager to hope that his son will become a dragon, so he is sent to the government school on time for a while.

In the middle of the day, Xu Wanning went to the official school to pick up his son and the third girl back in a carriage. Halfway through the journey, he happened to meet Zhou Jin, the eldest son of the Zhongshunhou Mansion.

Xu Wanning stopped the carriages and horses, Zhou Jin got off the horse and greeted Xu Wanning and the third girl politely.

Zhou Jin was serving as an adjutant under the command of Li Ling, the inspector of the city, and this time was not the time to be on duty.

Xu Wanning asked, "Why isn't Cousin Zhou in the camp at this hour?"

Zhou Jin replied, "I'm here to patrol the city."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu Wanning was about to let the coachman start the car, but Zhou Jin stepped forward and asked, "This year's winter hunting, will my cousin and cousin go winter hunting with the second and third cousins?"

Xu Wanning replied: "Our family members rarely go winter hunting with us, and there are no arrangements for this year."

The third girl heard the two mention the winter hunting, she poked her head out and said, "Hunting is something you men are passionate about, even if we go along, it's not worth seeing."

Zhou Jin quickly replied: "Why didn't you see it? Every winter, besides hunting, there are also many things like polo, cuju, riding and archery. It's very interesting."

Zhou Jin looked at the third girl anxiously, and said, "My cousin will go with me this year."

The third girl replied indifferently: "Let's talk about it later."

With that said, she pulled down the curtain of the car.

The horse-drawn carriage wheeled along, but Zhou Jin still stood there, staring at the car that was gradually moving away in a daze.

Xu Wanning opened the curtain of the car to glance at Zhou Jin's bewildered look, and said to herself, "This is Zhou's cousin."

As someone who has experienced it, Xu Wanning can of course see the young man's thoughts at a glance, but my sister-in-law is not yet ready, so although she understands some things in her heart, it is difficult to say them out.

The third girl only spoke half of what her sister-in-law said, and she couldn't help asking: "What did my sister-in-law want to say about Cousin Zhou, but she swallowed it halfway through?"

Xu Wanning looked at her sister-in-law and said with a smile: "I just want to say, what a coincidence, every time I pick you up and Dalang from school, I seem to meet Zhou's cousin patrolling the streets."

The third girl didn't understand Zhou Jin's thoughts. After hearing Xu Wanning's words, she smiled and said, "That's right, what a coincidence."

Li Xiang often encounters such coincidences these days.

In the past few days, Li Xiang, who has just entered Habayashi Guard, has been busy with his winter hunting errands.

One day, when he came back from the field trip, he happened to meet Guo Cuiyan again just after he entered the second gate. Li Xiang still politely greeted her, and then he walked away.

However, Guo Cuiyan stopped him, and she asked softly, "I heard that this year's winter hunting, you are in charge of the third master, right?"

Li Xiang smiled and said: "I don't have this authority. I'm just running an errand here, and I'm in charge of the trivial matters of the security field."

Guo Cuiyan raised her eyes and glanced at Li Xiang, with a gentle smile on her face, she replied: "Third Lord is able to take on the job of Habayashi Wei before he is weak, it is already very remarkable."

Men always like to hear such flattery from others, but Li Xiang is born with a gentle temperament who doesn't like to be competitive. After hearing Guo Cuiyan's flattery, he replied calmly: "This job is due to the second brother's reputation. With my own ability, how can I enter the inner court so easily."

Guo Cuiyan looked at Li Ling shyly and timidly, and said softly: "The third master is really a humble person."

As she said that, she gave a little blessing to Li Xiang: "I have an unfeeling request, and I would like to ask the third master for your help."

Li Xiang replied: "Cousin is a distinguished guest in the mansion, if you need anything, just ask."

Guo Cuiyan smiled at Li Xiang: "I'm not afraid of your jokes if I say it. I came from a small place, and I have never seen a royal driver when I grow up. This winter hunting, the third master can open my eyes."

Li Xiang replied: "I really can't make up my mind about this. It stands to reason that our family can go to the female relatives, but now the second sister-in-law is in charge of the house. This depends on the arrangement of the second sister-in-law. If the cousin really wants to go, go ask the second sister-in-law. That's it."

After listening to Li Xiang's words, Guo Cuiyan showed a harmless expression on her face, and quickly replied: "So that's the case, but I was abrupt."

Li Xiang said politely to her, "No problem."

He was about to say goodbye to Guo Cuiyan, when Xu Wanning came straight here with the third girl and Da Lang who had just finished school.

Guo Cuiyan couldn't avoid it, so she pretended to be calm and greeted Xu Wanning.

Xu Wanning walked up to the two of them, she glanced at Guo Cuiyan, then at Li Xiang, and asked, "What are you talking about here with the third brother?"

Guo Cuiyan quickly replied: "I didn't talk about anything, I just happened to meet the third master and said hello to him."

After Li Xiang came back, he only heard that his elder brother Li Xian was seriously ill by Gong Ji, but he didn't know what Guo Cuiyan did in the elder brother's yard, let alone what kind of person she was. Seeing Xu Wanning's question, he replied frankly : "My cousin wants to go winter hunting with me."

As he said that, he looked at Guo Cuiyan and said, "If my cousin wants to go, it's not a big deal, it's the same with my sister-in-law."

Guo Cuiyan lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "I'm just saying it casually, but I don't really have to go."

Who is Guo Cuiyan? Xu Wanning can see clearly now, she doesn't want children to hear such dirty things.

Xu Wanning waved at Li Xiang: "Third brother, go and do your work." Then she said to the third girl: "Jinyan, help me send Dalang back first."

After seeing sister-in-law and uncle and son walking away, Xu Wanning said unceremoniously to Guo Cuiyan; "Don't think that I don't know what your plan is, I really have never seen such a shameless person like you, seeing that uncle can't count on you. Now that it’s up, you’re going to try to trick the third brother again, right?”

After all, Guo Cuiyan belonged to a girl who had not left the court, and when Xu Wanning uttered her thoughts so nakedly, she blushed with shame, with tears in her eyes, and said, "Big cousin, what are you talking about, don't take it seriously." Such an insult, even though I am not the serious master of this mansion, but I came here with my aunt, at least I am a guest of this mansion, how can you arrange people in such a random way."

Xu Wanning snorted coldly and said, "Don't pretend to be innocent here, you know what you have done yourself. I warn you, don't rely on the support of your mother-in-law, you will do anything wrong in this mansion, and you will If you don’t look at what kind of place this is, there’s no room for you to behave wildly!”

She stared at Guo Cuiyan and said: "If you are sensible, you should put aside the idea of ​​attacking the third younger brother as soon as possible, otherwise, even if we have nothing to do with you, the son is not a vegetarian."
