With a delicate smile, the rough guy bows down for the beauty

Chapter 157 Laba Festival

After seeing this side of Shen Qianwei, Su Junning didn't go out for a long time.

The main reason is that the divorce and engagement of the Su family were too loud. As the end of the year approached, I still wanted to try not to become the talk of other people's family's New Year gatherings, so I kept a low profile.

Su Zhiyi, on the other hand, had been quiet for a few days after retiring the engagement, and often went out for a walk.

Su Yi and Cui Shi didn't care about her, they just thought that she was bound by marriage for too long, and now she felt relaxed, so she was in the mood to go out.

As soon as December entered, the temperature became even lower, and it didn't take long for a heavy snowfall.

From the night until the next evening, the whole city of Bianjing was turned into white.

The auspicious snow heralds a good year, and near the end of the year, snowing is still a very pleasant thing.

On the day of the Laba Festival, there was another light snowfall.

After winter came, Cui sent word that there was no need to go to her place to pay her respects, so Su Junning slept in every day.

It's time to get up again today.

As soon as his arms stretched out from the bed, he was scared back by the coolness.

Listening to the movement in the room, Nan Xu walked in quickly, and smiled when she saw that the person on the couch had woken up.

"Today is the Laba Festival. Miss, get up quickly. There is Laba porridge for breakfast. Drink it to drive away the epidemic and welcome blessings. It is auspicious and consummated."

"I just remembered that the quilt is tightly wrapped and won't let me get up."

Su Junning turned over, looked sideways at Nan Xu and blinked.

Seeing her as a child, Nan Xu felt helpless.

"Will the quilt still make you fine? The young lady is waking up, and she will be hungry soon. The servant will bring two braziers, and then heat up the clothes on the stove, okay?"

"Sister Nanxu is the most considerate."

Su Junning hooked her lips and revealed a sweet smile.

Nan Xu sighed helplessly, then turned around and went out to ask someone to come in and help.

After a long time, Su Junning finally got out of bed with difficulty.

After washing up, the breakfast has been set, and the staple food is a bowl of hot Laba porridge.

In fact, Su Junning doesn't like to eat this, but today it's a festive taste, so I can accept it.

While eating, he said.

"There must be a family dinner tonight. I don't know what good dishes my mother has arranged."

Although the usual food is not bad, but some dishes with complex recipes are only available at family banquets and New Year's dinners, so people look forward to it.

"When I went to pick up the meal today, I saw that the dining room was very busy, so it must be very rich." Jichun said with a smile.

"It's almost the end of the year, so it's going to be busy." Yingmei took over the conversation and said, "But this servant heard the news from the second door today, saying that the second lady went out after breakfast, and she said she was invited. Miss Qin's family went to admire the plum blossoms."

Su Junning ate porridge slowly, while listening to the maids' words, she thought of something else.

King Jin is about to choose a concubine every year. Su Zhiyi likes King Jin. In the past, she was under a marriage contract and had no chance. Now she is a free person. Will she be tempted?

"She often goes out recently?" Su Junning asked.

Yingmei nodded, "Going out once every three or four days is indeed much more frequent than before."

Su Junning narrowed her eyes, thinking that no matter how good her relationship with Qin Wan was, they were never as close as they are now.

Could it be that she has retired and wants to help Qin Wan reconnect with Xu Yuanche?

No matter which one it is, Su Junning feels that it is necessary to find out what Su Zhiyi has been doing silently recently.

So he ordered.

"Next time she leaves the mansion, find someone reliable to follow her, and see what she's going to do."

"Yes." Yingmei nodded in response.

Nan Xu gave Su Jun Ningbu vegetables and asked.

"Miss thinks that the second miss is going out to see Miss Qin?"

"I'm a little suspicious." Su Junning scooped up a spoonful of porridge, "I always feel that she goes out too many times."

Nan Xu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Su Zhiyi made a big commotion in the afternoon.

Su Jun was nestled in the room reading a book, and a maid came in to spread the word, saying that the second young miss went out to appreciate plums and sprained her feet, and was sent back by His Royal Highness Jin Wang, and she was in the front hall right now.

Hearing this, Su Junning's heart immediately rang an alarm.

She couldn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world, Su Zhiyi went to admire the plum blossoms, happened to sprain his ankle, and happened to meet King Jin, and was sent back.

Especially since she also knew that there was a little ambiguity between Su Zhiyi and King Jin.

Without saying a word, he immediately changed his clothes and went to the front hall.

When I arrived, I saw Su Yi, Cui Shi, Su Yuxuan and Su Yu'an were all there, talking with King Jin.

Su Zhiyi was sitting on the chair next to her at the moment, her complexion was not looking well, she really looked like she was hurt and in pain.

After taking a brief look at everyone, Su Junning stepped forward to salute.

King Jin learned from his mother, Concubine Xian, that he chose Su Junning to be his concubine before, but it failed, so after seeing Su Junning now, he couldn't help but look at him twice.

It's not that she's interested in Su Junning, but she's just a little curious. Although she's seen it at a banquet before, she hasn't looked at it carefully.

Looking at it today, I found that Su Junning and Su Zhiyi have completely different temperaments.

Su Junning is delicate and charming, like a begonia drunk in the sun, and Su Zhiyi is cool and elegant, like a magnolia under the moon.

The two sisters are both beauties, but King Jin still prefers Su Zhiyi who looks gentler.

Sensing King Jin's eyes on her and turning to the side, Su Junning knew that he was comparing herself with Su Zhiyi.

This is normal, a family of sisters always want to put together to compare.

But what was abnormal was that King Jin seemed to look at Su Zhiyi with some appreciation.

Tsk, does Lang have a concubine interested?

Su Junning thought about it, and went to Su Zhiyi's side.

"How is the second sister's injury? The sprain is severe? Fortunately, I met His Royal Highness King Jin today. Otherwise, my sister sprained her foot, so how can I come back conveniently?"

She pretended to be concerned and asked softly.

Su Zhiyi was obviously a little uncomfortable with her sudden approach, but she still responded.

"I'm not seriously injured, Fourth Sister, don't worry too much. Today, I really want to thank His Royal Highness King Jin for helping me."

While speaking, Su Zhiyi glanced at King Jin stretching out his hand, showing a bit of a daughter's shyness.

Seeing this, Su Junning deliberately spoke to King Jin.

"It is said that heroes save beauties. Today, His Royal Highness King Jin can be regarded as the second sister's hero. I will thank you next time on behalf of my sister."

While speaking, the eyes flashed between the two of them, as if there was something in the words.

King Jin glanced at her, and glanced at Su Zhiyi from the corner of his eye, as if feeling a little uncomfortable.

But still waved politely.

"Miss Si, you are being polite, this king is just a little effort." After speaking, he said to Su Yi, "The person has been delivered, and I still have something to do in the palace, so I won't stay any longer, Mr. Su, take your leave."

Su Yi hurriedly cupped his hands, "Thank you for today's matter, Your Highness, I will send Your Highness out, please."

When he came back after sending the person away, Su Yi's face darkened a bit.

Glancing at Su Zhiyi, he hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Zhiyi, what happened today?"

　Five days and five days, the isolation has lost my head, and I will go crazy if I seal it again, ah——
