After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo
Chapter 176 The last face
After that day, Jiang Ning finally accepted Liu Jinfu's suggestion and never pleaded with Mu Jingzhao again.
For several days in a row, she shut herself in her room and saw no one except Zhe Liu who occasionally came to deliver meals.
Three days passed, and on this day, the weather finally turned clear after several days of continuous heavy rain, with blue sky and white clouds, gentle breeze, and a rare good weather.
But all of this has nothing to do with Jiang Ning. These days, she has been shutting herself in the house with the door closed. She can only guess what time it is by relying on the faint light from the window every day. As for the weather, she doesn't know.
She stared blankly at the swaying tree shadows on the window paper, not knowing what she was thinking.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
She remained silent, as if it was time for Zheliu to deliver meals again.
After several knocks on the door, Mu Jingzhao's voice sounded at the door, "Ning'er."
Jiang Ning's eyes flickered slightly, but his sitting posture did not change at all.
"I have something to talk to you about."
She finally came back to her senses slowly, and turned her head to look towards the door and other directions. At this time, the sun was shining, and Mu Jingzhao's figure was reflected on the window paper.
She was still sitting, without the slightest intention to get up, but just watched quietly, without the slightest intention to get up.
There was a knock on the door, Mu Jingzhai's figure moved slightly, and he sighed heavily, "Pei Yu is leaving today, won't you see him off for the last time?"
After Mu Jingzhao finished speaking, he waited for a while, but there was still no movement in the room. .
He was about to turn around and leave. The next second, Jiang Ning opened the door and appeared in front of him.
Her face was pale, and her eyes were black and blue, but in just three days, she seemed to have aged by dozens of years.
Mu Jingzhao looked at her with a flash of love in his eyes.
Jiang Ning pursed his lips, as if he didn't know how to speak. After a long while, he said jerkyly, "What do you mean by giving him a ride?"
Her tone was cold, and she looked at Mu Jingzhao without any emotion in her eyes.
Mu Jingzhao didn't talk to him, but just walked out first. Jiang Ning asked several times but failed, so he could only walk forward closely with the other party.
The two walked one after the other and walked to the door of the house.
There was a carriage parked in front of the gate, Li Zinian stood in front of the horse and saluted respectfully.
"Master, madam."
Mu Jingzhao nodded slightly, and walked towards the car first. At the critical moment, Jiang Ning grabbed her wrist instantly. She looked haggard, but she had great strength.
"What are you going to do?"
Mu Jingzhao didn't answer, but turned sideways, grabbed Jiang Ning's wrist, and pulled her into the car.
After the two sat down, the carriage began to sway forward, and the two of them were relatively silent along the way, not even a casual glance, even to strangers who had nothing to do with it.
The carriage wobbled for an unknown amount of time and stopped at an alley in the city.
Mu Jingzhao looked at her, his eyes couldn't tell whether it was sad or reluctant, "Go." His tone was still jerky, but the corners of his mouth were still raised.
Jiang Ning finally gave him a suspicious look. She opened the curtain and got out of the carriage, only to find that this was the entrance of the alley where she and Mu Jingzhao came to eat wonton not long ago.
She was full of doubts, but she still walked towards the depths of the alley step by step. The warm breath of burning firewood came to her vaguely. Jiang Ning took a deep breath, and even regained some spirit in those stagnant eyes.
From a distance, she saw a man standing alone in front of the small stall amidst the smoke and fire, dressed in a green shirt, thin, with long hair tied up, and a piece of white gauze around his neck was tied into a somewhat funny bow-knot shape.
The owner of the vendor was busy at the stove behind him, sending firewood to the stove with swift hands and feet.She straightened up and lifted the lid of the pot to check the situation inside the pot. When the lid was lifted for a moment, water vapor rose from the pot in an instant, and her face became a little unreal in the hazy water vapor.
The water vapor receded, and her face reappeared. She seemed to see Jiang Ning beside the alley, and she immediately smiled.
And Pei Yu, who was standing in front of the stall, also saw Jiang Ning who was constantly advancing, and his watery eyes instantly burst into a smile.
"Leyin."
He called softly.
In just a split second, Jiang Ning almost shed tears.
She has been homeless for three years, from Qingshui County all the way to Kyoto, passing through countless places, but no place is really regarded by her as a play house.
The home in her heart was completely destroyed in a fire three years ago.
From then on, no matter where she was or where she stayed, even if she lived in the harem for such a long time, she always felt that she was wandering.
Wandering all the way, wandering all the way.
It wasn't until she saw the picture of Pei Yu standing with the proprietress that she suddenly had the illusion that she was home.
While she was thinking, Pei Yu had already rushed forward, scratching her head with her hands, and smiled shyly, "I don't know if your tastes have changed over the years, so you haven't told the boss yet, you can tell yourself."
Jiang Ning smiled, tears fell again, she reached out and wiped her face carelessly, "Okay."
She stepped forward and casually said to the boss, "Boss, I want a big bowl of seafood wontons."
"Okay." The boss said, quickly picked up the bamboo basket containing the wontons, poured the wontons into the boiling water, then raised his head and looked at Jiang Ning, the smile on his face paused for a moment, "Girl, why do you look so haggard? You young people always don't care about your body. When you are as old as me, you will regret it."
Jiang Ning didn't speak, but there were always tears in his eyes.
The two sat down at a small table together.
Pei Yu looked at her with a somewhat bewildered expression, "You didn't cry so much when you were my big brother."
As soon as these words came out, he felt a slip of the tongue, showing a little embarrassment.
Yeah, when did I become so crying.
Jiang Ning took a deep breath, "Why do you want to eat here?"
Jiang Ning vaguely remembered that eating by herself was actually only her own habit.
The younger sister only loves the exquisite pastries in the restaurant, but the mother dislikes the winding alleys and finds it difficult to find, and also thinks the food in this stall is unhygienic, so she doesn't like to come here.
Pei Yu was the young master who was spoiled and spoiled in the mansion since he was a child. Because he was afraid that he would be bullied by others, he seldom let him go out alone.
She also thought about whether it might be Mu Jingzhao's arrangement, but then she thought about it, Pei Yu's status is special, if there is no special reason, she probably wouldn't let him show up in the city.
"Isn't this your favorite stall?"
Jiang Ning showed a bit of astonishment.
"How do you know?" (End of this chapter)
