Chapter 70

"Rumours are sometimes untrustworthy." Qin Zhijian seemed to feel that the atmosphere between himself and Murong Shengxue had changed, his face changed, and he turned to look out the window at a small tree that was blown by the north wind and kept shaking. the way.

After finally becoming a bit relaxed and cheerful, the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point again. Murong Shengxue's eyes were red with sadness. She knew what Qin Zhijian was implying. It is now rumored that she is the fiancée brought back by Qin Zhijian. , the future Princess of Zhenbei, she doesn't understand why Qin Zhijian always treats her with such an attitude, her attitude is already very obvious, can't he see it?In this case, is she going to let go of her dignity and speak clearly?
Murong Shengxue looked down at the black jade box in his hand, made up his mind, turned his head to signal Xiaohong to go out, walked gently behind Qin Zhijian, put his arms around his strong waist, "My lord..."

"Miss Murong!" Qin Zhijian moved, wanting to pull Murong Shengxue's hand away, seeing that she was hugging him tightly, afraid of hurting her, he said in a deep voice, "Please let go!"

"No! I don't want to let go, my lord, can't you see my feelings for you? I... Ah!" Murong Shengxue shook his head violently and said, just as he was about to confide his heart to Qin Zhijian, his hand hurt , I have lost the warmth in my arms.

"Miss Murong, please respect yourself!" Qin Zhijian said displeasedly, without even looking at Murong Shengxue, he walked out the door.

"My lord!" Murong Shengxue called out in pain, "Are you so unfeeling to me? Even if I am the person he likes, you clearly know that I don't have him in my heart. The person I like is..."

"Enough!" Qin Zhijian turned around abruptly and interrupted Murong Shengxue, staring at her closely with a pair of deep well-like black pupils, and said ruthlessly, "I understand Miss Murong's affection, so don't tell me what my intention is?" Miss can't tell? Miss's favorite person is not him, and my king's favorite person is not Miss!"

"You..." Murong Shengxue was stunned, and suddenly slid to the ground, like a pear blossom knocked down by the wind and rain, looking at Qin Zhijian in despair.

Qin Zhijian's eyes were a bit unbearable, but he didn't stay any longer, his thin lips were slightly pursed, he turned around decisively and walked out.

"My lord, you will regret it!"

Murong Shengxue's desperate cry came from the room, and Qin Zhijian stood at the door with a face as heavy as water, and turned to look at Xiao Hong who shrank her head in fright, "Go in and serve your lady."

"Yes!" Xiaohong replied with a sigh of relief, quickly opened the curtain and walked in.

"My lord!" A man in black approached Qin Zhijian, bowed on one knee, and frowned when he heard the crying in the room.

"Get up, how are you doing?" Qin Zhijian raised his feet and walked up the corridor outside, and asked.

"The emperor sent down a secret decree." The man in black got up and followed, took out a golden letter box the size of a little finger from his arms, and handed it over with both hands.

Qin Zhijian took the letter box and opened it, took out the secret letter rolled into thin strips from it, looked at it, put it back again, and said: "Go back to the emperor and say that this king knows how to do it."

"Yes!" The man in black stood still with his hands folded. Seeing Qin Zhijian walking away, he moved and disappeared under the gray sky out of thin air.

On the second day after the old lady and Jin Liu went to the White General's Mansion, Jin Tongxi returned to her natal home, first went to the old lady's place to greet the old lady, served her lunch at the old man's house, and then took her maid to the old lady's house. Hefengxuan lived there.

The eldest lady had just finished her lunch, and was lying on the warm kang, covered with a soft animal skin mattress, and did not open her eyes when she heard Jin Tongxi coming in. Glancing at her, he said, "I thought you only remembered the old lady, and you forgot about me!"

"Mother!" Jin Tongxi coquettishly called the eldest lady, lifted her skirt and put it on the kang, sat beside her intimately, leaned against her, and said, "Look at what mother said, how could I not remember?" Mother, it’s only my grandmother who is here, as a granddaughter, it’s rare for me to go back to my mother’s house, so I can’t even see her old man, let outsiders know, so why don’t you say that mother didn’t teach me well?”

"So you're still thinking about me?" The lady looked at Jin Tongxi with provocative and delicate eyebrows, and seeing her leaning against her with a smile again, she suppressed her smile and pushed her angrily, saying : "Don't lean on me, your body is full of cold, go over there and bake, and freeze you carefully!"

"The weather is getting colder and colder!" Jin Tongxi pouted and said, warming his hands on the brazier next to him for a while, then turned around and got on the kang, squeezed beside the eldest lady and asked, "Grandma hasn't Promise to see your mother?"

"The old lady doesn't want to see me, so I'm at ease!" The eldest lady said nonchalantly, and leaned back comfortably on the thick cotton pillow.

In recent days, the eldest lady has also noticed that the old lady is not a lively temperament. Except for the grandchildren such as Jin Liu and Jin Xingxi, Mrs. Ru or those aunts will be killed if they don't stay in the old lady's room for a while. Hurry out, it's the New Year's Eve, she is busy, and the old lady doesn't see her, so she just saves trouble, and she would rather take a break from her busy schedule to stare for a while when she has time.

Jin Tongxi said disapprovingly: "Mother, don't be so self-righteous, grandma has been out recently?"

"Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?" The lady looked at Jin Tongxi in confusion, nodded and said, "I went out once and took the third girl to General Bai's mansion, but came back before noon. He didn't eat a single meal, so he must have been kicked out by the Bai family."

Thinking of this, the eldest lady can't help but find it funny. Although many people in the Bai family want to cling to it, not everyone can climb it. The old lady is just an old lady in Qingzhou City. Well, the Bai family doesn't even care about their elders, so how could they take care of her, an eccentric old lady in the country?
"Mother is wrong!" Jin Tongxi suddenly said: "Not only did the Bai family not embarrass the grandmother and third sister, the old lady of the Bai family even met them in person, and it was not because of the Bai family that she did not eat at the Bai family, but because of the grandmother. I am determined to come back!"

"What?" The eldest lady was startled when she heard the words, then turned her head to look at Jin Tongxi seriously, and said, "What you said is true?"

"When have I lied to my mother?" Jin Tongxi said with an unhappy face, "Yesterday I went to General Bai's mansion, Princess Bining told me personally, and said that Mrs. Bai said, next time We must invite grandma to treat her well!"

"It's so possible!" The eldest lady had an unbelievable expression on her face.

Jin Tongxi picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and said: "Mother doesn't know yet, I only found out after hearing Princess Bining talk about it. Grandma and Mrs. Bai knew each other when they were young, and my grandmother even saved Mrs. Bai's life." Woolen cloth!"

"So, the old lady of the Bai family owes our old lady a huge favor?" The old lady sat up straight with excitement, "There is such a thing, this old lady is really hiding it." !"

"No, I was also surprised when I heard it. Grandma never mentioned such a big thing. The Bai family is now a red and purple family in front of the emperor. Everyone wants to talk to the Bai family. To gain a little relationship, grandma actually neglected such a big favor! Thanks for letting me know!" Jin Tongxi looked at the eldest lady with a face, and said: "Mother, in my opinion, if you really want to The fifth younger sister is going to marry into the Bai family, so she can't be so stiff with her grandmother anymore."

"You're right." The eldest lady nodded. She never thought that the old lady had such a great ability. She thought that she was just able to feed the three sons in the family. Anyway, the old lady was jealous of her natal family. Even if she doesn't care about the old lady, the Elder doesn't dare to do anything to her. As for Mrs. Ru, mud can't support the wall. As Jin Tongxi said, if she really wanted to marry Jin Xingxi to the Bai family, she might really have to hug the old lady first.

Thinking of this, the eldest lady lifted the mattress on her body, pushed Jin Tongxi away, and was about to walk down the kang.

"Mother, where are you going?" Jin Tongxi asked inexplicably.

"What else can I do? Your grandmother likes to eat the chestnut cake made by Jiang's mother. I'll send someone to pick the best chestnuts on the street!" The eldest lady said while she had already put on her shoes, and she opened it herself. He opened the curtain and went out.

"Mother..." Jin Tongxi originally wanted to follow, but saw that the eldest lady had already walked out, so she didn't bother to chase, so she got off the kang slowly, asked the maid to help her put on her shoes, then opened the curtain and walked out .

"Miss." Zhou's mother was doing needlework outside, when she saw Jin Tongxi coming out, she got up and saluted.

Jin Tongxi has already heard about the beating of Mama Zhou's eldest wife, and seeing her slumped look, she couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward and took her hand, saying: "I've heard about Mama's matter. Now, mom watched my mother grow up, and she should be the one who understands her temperament best. That day, she must have gotten angry before doing anything to you. Mom, don't take it to heart, just do what you should do on weekdays gone."

"Yes." Zhou's mother didn't expect Jin Tongxi to comfort herself, she choked up with emotion, and said, "I know, thank you Miss for thinking about my slave."

"Mom is serious. I hope mom will take good care of my mother in the future." Jin Tongxi smiled gently.

"This is what slaves should do." Zhou's mother hurriedly said, she took a look at the gray-brown cloak in the maid's hand, reached out to take it and put it on for Jin Tongxi, and said, "Send the young miss out."

"Okay!" Jin Tongxi responded, turned around and walked out towards the door.

It was very early in the evening, just after Shen Shi, the sky was completely dark, and the doors and windows hung by the whistling north wind made slight noises, which made people feel that the world was shaking.

In the small compartment next to the hall of the main room, the old lady was lying comfortably sideways on the kang, and Jin Liu was sitting on the square stool next to the kang, holding a beauty hammer in her hand, and while beating the old lady's legs, she was telling her The anecdote of the market that I heard from the servants was not funny. The old lady and Nanny Liu laughed out loud, and the room was warm and warm.

"Miss San doesn't know how her little head is so long. It contains so many interesting things, and it makes the old lady so happy every time she goes back. It's almost becoming the old lady's pistachio!" Jin Liu just finished speaking. As a joke, Nanny Liu took a cup of warm tea and handed it over, saying: "After talking for so long, Third Miss, hurry up and have a cup of tea!"

"Thank you, Nanny Liu." Jin Liu was also about to take a break, so she quickly put down the beauty hammer, took the tea bowl and said, "The maids told me these things, I thought it was fun, so I told them too." Grandma listened."

"Miss San has a heart." Nanny Liu smiled and saw that the door curtain was opened a little bit with sharp eyes, and Zhu Xin showed half of her head from the outside, beckoning to herself, glared at her, and walked out.
