Gong Fujiao Daughter-in-law

Chapter 166

A good night's sleep.

Xie Zhiyun got up early the next morning, and when she woke up, Wei Ji was already practicing sword in the yard.

When he practiced the sword, he was tall and straight, standing like a pine tree, and moving like the wind. After the sword moved away from the dragon and snake, there was a cold light falling on the tip of the sword.

Xie Zhijun sat up, got out of bed wearing only her underwear, walked over and lay down by the window to look out.

With just one glance, he saw the beautiful scenery of Wei Ji practicing his sword.

The place where Wei Ji practiced his sword was also carefully selected. Sitting on the arhat bed in the bedroom, he could just see his heroic figure under the octagonal crabapple tree, and the beautiful scenery complemented each other.

Xie Zhijun watched quietly for a while, Wei Ji finally stopped, turned his head and glanced at the window.

The fine rays of the morning sun fell on his wheat-colored skin, adding a third of radiance to his pair of sword eyebrows and starry eyes.

Wei Ji licked the corners of his lips at Xie Zhiyun: "Mrs., good morning."

Xie Zhiyun abruptly withdrew from the window, turned her head and covered her thumping heart.

Wei Ji raised his eyebrows, but he didn't bother her. He went to the wing room to wash and change clothes. After tidying himself up, Xie Zhijun just came out of the bedroom.

Today, Xie Zhijun was going to Daying in the western suburbs, and Xie Zhijun was dressed very simply. She changed into a lotus-colored floral hakama, and only wore a simple double bun on her head, which looked neat and tidy.

In the morning, I ate buns with millet porridge.

After simply having breakfast, the two of them were about to set off for Daying in the western suburbs. As a result, before the door of Chunhuating was out, Xiao Zhong came in and reported: "Young Master, Young Madam, Miss Ruan has arrived."

The rain stopped yesterday evening, and Lady Ruan obviously got up early and hurried on her way, and now she has returned to Duke Su's mansion.

Xie Zhiyun looked at Wei Ji: "I see her, do you want to wait a while or go to Daying first?"

Lady Ruan was frightened yesterday, Xie Zhijun was the only one who could talk to her alone, so Wei Ji said: "I'll wait for you for a while, let's ride there together."

Xie Zhiyun thought for a while and said, "Okay."

Lady Ruan was directly invited into the Chunhua Court, and Xie Zhiyun met her in the courtyard.

Behind Lady Ruan was her friend. Xie Zhiyun glanced at it, but didn't look any further, and only said to Lady Ruan, "Sit down and talk."

Lady Ruan's face was still a little pale, but she was not as trembling as yesterday. She tugged at her friend and led her to sit on the chair.

"Young madam, yesterday was too hasty, and I still want to thank you again today, thank you for saving my life."

If Xie Zhiyun didn't return suddenly, Miss Ruan would definitely die.

Xie Zhiyun waved his hand and smiled gently: "It means that we are destined, so there is no need to thank you."

As she spoke, she looked at the person behind Mrs. Ruan: "Who is this?"

Lady Ruan hurriedly said: "Young Madam, this is a friend I met in the city. Her surname is Lin. Madam can just call her Mei Niang."

Mei Niang is tall and slender, with shallow pupils and deep eyes, and she has a free and easy manner around her.

After being introduced, she also stood up and saluted Xie Zhiyun.

"Mei Niang has seen the young lady, thank you for saving my life."

Xie Zhiyun smiled and said, "I said it, no need to thank me, but from Mei Niang's accent, I don't seem to be a native of Yezhou?"

Mei Niang paused, then bowed her head and said, "Young Madam, I am a refugee. I was born in Yezhou three years ago, and now I have opened a small stall in West Market, selling brown sugar glutinous rice cakes."

Xie Zhiyun nodded: "Thank you for choosing Yezhou."

This is very eloquent.

Mei Niang was very nervous at first, but now that Xie Zhijun is so easy-going and has no airs at all, she relaxes.

"Yezhou is very good," Meiniang said, "Since I settled in Yezhou, a woman like me has never been harassed by gangsters."

Xie Zhiyun nodded: "I'm relieved when you say that. If something happens in the future, you can tell Mrs. Ruan and let her report it to me."

She chatted a few gossips with Mei Niang, and then the topic turned back to Ruan Niangzi.

"Both of them have been arrested. I will go to interrogate with the young man in a while. You came at the right time."

"Have you recalled whether you had any quarrels with them?"

Mrs. Ruan obviously thought about it a long time ago, and immediately answered when she heard the question: "My little one recalled, it should be one night two months ago, the youngest son of a tenant family in Zhuangzi suddenly fell ill, please ask me I went to invite the doctor, and I led the lady to find the doctor, and I happened to pass by a rice field on the way, and I saw the two brothers clearing the straw."

"I really didn't pay attention at the time. I even said a few words to them, and then went to work."

"Now that I think about it, they might be doing something sneaky. They think I can see it, so they keep testing me."

As soon as she said that, Xie Zhiyun understood.

But Mrs. Ruan obviously didn't see that the two of them were tossing rice stalks at all, and she didn't know what the two of them were going to do. They had a guilty conscience and wanted to kill people to silence them.

Sure enough, you can't do bad things.

Xie Zhiyun nodded and said: "I see, I asked you to come back to the house because the house has been very busy recently. I saw that you are really capable. Would you like to come back to work?"

Xie Zhiyun was very gentle: "Of course, when the situation is stable in the future, you can choose which Zhuangzi to go to, how about it?"

Lady Ruan's eyes were a little red.

Xie Zhiyun not only saved her life, but also took care of her body and mind, and even found an excuse to let her work on errands, so that the people in the house would not be suspicious of her.

So gentle and thoughtful, she really is Langhuan Xie's daughter.

Seeing that Mrs. Ruan agreed, Xie Zhiyun handed her over to Mrs. Zheng and asked her to lead Mrs. Ruan to do things, and then looked at Mei Niang.

Probably because she has always been very peaceful and polite, so when she said that Mei Niang could not stay in the house, Mei Niang also took it for granted.

She hurriedly said: "Thank you, Young Madam, I naturally know that I can't stay in the house, but every now and then, can I see Mrs. Ruan?"

Xie Zhiyun smiled.

She didn't put on any makeup today, but she looked even more delicate and lovely, with an indescribable tenderness on her body.

She said: "Of course it is possible, but Mrs. Ruan must abide by the rules of the mansion and cannot go out frequently, so you should take time to meet her."

Xie Zhiyun looked at her again: "Or if you work hard, if you can get the housekeeper's approval, you can also work as a cook in the house."

"However, as a cook, you have to behave according to the rules, and you are not as free and easy as outside."

Mei Niang was stunned for a moment, then immediately said: "Thank you, Young Madam."

After arranging the people to leave, Wei Ji came out of the wing room, seeing blood suddenly: "What's wrong with that Mei Niang?"

Xie Zhiyun froze for a moment, reached out and pinched his face.

"Young master, you are really smart."

Wei Ji held her hand: "I'm not smart, I just understand you."
