Chapter 22

Zilan responded, took the magnolia hairpin from the vanity box, and gave Li Wan a bun like a cloud, simple and beautiful, seeing Li Wan smiled knowingly, Zilan felt relieved.

The person in the bronze mirror has a moon-white upper body with plain makeup and floral gown, a light pink long skirt with begonia flowers and dark patterns on the lower body, a light pink satin wind wool shawl on the outside, plain teeth and vermilion lips, pink face peach cheeks, like wintersweet blooming in winter, hooked With a smile on his lips, his shallow eyes flowed, playful and moving.

Li Wan looks good, she knows in her heart, Liu Jinyuan has been thinking about her all her life, vowing to get her to the death, it is this face, every time she looks in the mirror, she thinks, Liu Jinyuan has a good official career, and countless Yingying Yanyan around her actually fell in love with her as a second wife , did he have a grudge against Qin Muyin, or something else?
Qin Muyin stood at the door with a large figure, blocking most of the light from outside. When Li Wan walked out of the inner room, her calm gaze brightened and then darkened again.

Qin Muyin turned sideways, a chill came over his face, Li Wan involuntarily shrank her neck and shivered.

"Let's go!" Seeing her movements, Qin Muyin glanced outside helplessly, the room was so cold, if he went outside, he would probably tremble all over!

It's winter today, and it will only get colder in the future. The charcoal bought in the mansion should be back soon. He wondered if he should prepare some more. She is so afraid of the cold, and it will be colder after spring next year. He didn't need it, but she couldn't bear it...

In Jing'an Courtyard, Mother Jiang was standing at the door, unexpectedly, Li Wan and Qin Muyin were together, a smile appeared on her serious face, very light, Li Wan lowered her head in embarrassment, not paying attention.

"Master Hou, ma'am, it's frosty today, and the old lady said you won't come?"

Hearing this, Li Wan stretched her neck, straightened her back, and took the words, "It's cold, I have nothing to do at home, the old lady is up?"

Mother Jiang handed her the stove in her hand, Li Wan shook her head, Mother Jiang must have stood there for a while, her face was frozen, how could she take her stove, "Mother Jiang, take it, I will be warm when I enter the house! "

Mama Jiang forced the heater into her hand, and her palm felt cold, she said in surprise, "Why is it so cold? Don't come here when it's cold, the old lady is not unreasonable, what should I do if I'm cold? "

Qin Muyin, who was walking in front, heard Jiang's mother's words, turned around and said, "I have nothing to do today, bring her to accompany the old lady!"

"The same is true for Master Hou. Madam is in good health, so what if she catches a cold again?" Although Mama Jiang complained, Li Wan could tell that she was in a very good mood, her voice was amiable, not showing any alienation.

After complaining about Qin Muyin, he turned his head and said to her, "The old lady is already up, and she is reciting Buddhist scriptures in the room!"

Knowing that the old lady had the habit of reciting Buddhist scriptures, Li Wan nodded, and put her hand into the small pocket of the heater. Immediately, warmth swept her body, and she entered the room. She returned the heater to Mama Jiang, who took it back, and went to the inner room.

The old lady was sitting on the big red sandalwood bed, holding the Buddhist beads in her hands. Seeing the two of them, she smiled and waved to Li Wan, "Come and sit here, it's getting cold, I told Mother Jiang, don't come here again!"

Li Wan remained silent, the old lady still didn't know Qin Muyin's temperament?Otherwise, on a cold day, Mother Jiang wouldn't wait at the door, hold the old lady's hand, and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm stuck in the room with no one to talk to, so the old lady won't think I'm noisy and drive me away." Bar?"

The old lady sighed, "Come if you want, don't be so early, it's winter, it's late, the road is icy and slippery, be careful if you fall, it's not too late to eat breakfast!"

Li Wan smiled and agreed.

After breakfast, Qin Muyin spread out the unfinished flower patterns from yesterday on the table, Li Wan and the old lady set up a chess board, the room was warm and the atmosphere was excellent.

Li Wan didn't know many chess pieces, Li Zhongqing taught him Go, she felt apprehensive looking at the circle of white pieces and black pieces, and then gave up.Just like her studying, she can read and understand, but she can't compose poetry at all.She thought, what she could take out was only two side dishes.

Therefore, when the old lady was playing chess, Li Wan asked her, "Can the old lady know backgammon?"

"A game that has been popular in Beijing in the past two years?"

Li Wan's face brightened, "Well, white or black, the first to line up with five will win!"

When the old lady heard this, she became interested, "Okay, let's play with that!"

Whoever comes out first will have a big advantage. At the beginning, the old lady didn't figure it out. Li Wan won two games in a row. Later, there were more and more pieces on the chessboard, and Li Wan was dazzled by seeing them. On the other hand, the old lady had piercing eyes. There is God, and the spirit is excellent!
In this game, the old lady won.

"This game is more interesting than Go, no wonder you young people like it!" The old lady didn't like to go out, so she listened to Jiang's mother when she heard what was popular in Beijing.

Back and forth, the two of them won or lost, Li Wan played the chess carefully, counting every step and five moves.

Attracted by them, Qin Muyin put down the pen in his hand, went to sit beside Li Wan and sat down, leaning over, the black and white pieces were scattered unevenly on the chessboard, he took a look, held her hand and put down the chess, raised his eyebrows Said, "Win!"

Li Wan glared at him, looked at the chess pieces, she really won, no matter where the old lady went next, she couldn't stop her, Li Wan didn't pay attention to the layout undoubtedly formed, the winner was Qin Muyin, not her, there was no expression on her face. Not much joy.

The old lady also looked unhappy, "Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are playing chess, if you interrupt, there will be no fun at all!"

Li Wan didn't say anything, but revealed the same meaning.

Qin Muyin stood up and remained silent for a while. Under the watchful eyes of the two, he returned to the table and resumed writing.

Qin Muyin doesn't like chess, this is inherited from the old Marquis, when he saw chess, he would feel dizzy and drowsy, and only when he was dazed just now would he feel curious, Qin Muyin thought so, writing faster and faster in his hands, swaying freely!
