A Lady's Tranquility

The maid who came to deliver the message was aggressive, but because she knew that the mistress was angry, she guessed that Jiang Xuening was afraid that there would be nothing good to eat, so she was quite rude when she spoke to her; but when she left, her face was pale and her whole body was weak Because she was frightened by Jiang Xuening's undisguised threat, she was even more afraid of how she would tell Meng Shi what she had said when she went back.

Lian'er and Tang'er thought that their second daughter's temper had improved during this period of time, that she was becoming more and more reasonable and peaceful.

Where did you expect to say such a word suddenly?

Both of them were taken aback, and it was inevitable that they would be a little more trembling and worried when serving her again: "Second Miss, Madam is the head of the house after all, will this..."

Jiang Xuening tore off the facekerchief that was covering her face, and threw it into the copper basin in front of her, her face, which had not been applied with makeup, was slightly reddened by the heat, becoming more and more tender like a freshly peeled egg Smooth, with a plain face and clear water, without the cover and modification of makeup, the delicacy and excellence of the facial features are more obvious.

She said, "Isn't this also my home?"

What's more, she has to stay in the palace for half a year. After all, she is now the companion of the eldest princess. Although she doesn't like this status, and she doesn't like her current situation, no matter how annoyed Meng Shi is, what else can she do? no?

The Meng family loves Jiang Xuehui so much, so he must be wary of it.

After she finished washing, she asked Lian'er to make a pot of tea, and then told Tang'er, "Ms. You from the uncle's mansion will come over in a while. Find a smart mouth and be strict with the concierge. Don't let me People were blocked outside the door casually."

This time out of the palace can only stay at home for two days.

There is not much time left for Jiang Xuening to give You Fangyin advice again, and to tidy up what was left over from the last instruction.

Not to mention the matter of Yan Lin.

Originally, although the time for the accident in the Yongyi Hou's mansion was gradually approaching, there was still a while after all, and she could take advantage of it slowly, make enough preparations and preparations for Yan Lin, and then explain it clearly to him, maybe he could accept it better. Only in this way will he not hate her like he did in the previous life.

But all the plans were disrupted by entering the palace as a companion.

If he entered the palace, it would be inconvenient to do things, and he would not dare to say anything in the palace, but it would take ten days to leave the palace. If I don't make it clear this time, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to say it in the future.

Waking up early in the morning, You Fangyin quietly stuffed a small piece of silver into the concierge who was familiar with her. Because of the plain skirt, she didn't need to disguise herself, she looked like a maid in the mansion.

And it's not very decent.

She slipped out of the mansion, and looked around carefully when she walked out the door, as if she was afraid of someone following her.

But in fact, this kind of waiting does not make any sense.

If someone really wanted to follow him, how could he be discovered so easily?

for example……

The moment she walked out of the Qingyuan uncle's mansion, beside the wonton stall that had been set up not far from the roadside, an unremarkable young man in blue gently put down his chopsticks, and took out a few copper plates from his waist , put it on the greasy little table, got up and put it on it far away.

Daoqin has already scolded in her heart at this moment: the surname Lu can't order Mr. all day long, so he orders Mr.'s subordinates, and he can't see them idle. To find him such a hard job with someone!

What is there to do with a little uncle's concubine?

If I let the brothers know, I'm afraid I will think that I am a lowly and wretched person in the poor streets and back alleys?

You Fangyin crossed two streets and entered a silk shop.

Daoqin was watching upstairs not far away, and after a while, she saw her come out with a piece of fine silk.

He didn't feel anything yet.

But after a while, You Fangyin walked into a brush and ink shop again, and bought two tubes of high-quality brushes and a good inkstone; next was rouge and gouache, and went in to buy some, and when she came out, the boss gave it away with a smile on her face and then the headgear, etc. trivial...

In the end, he went to the temple to ask for a peace talisman? !

The corner of Daoqin's mouth finally couldn't help twitching.

This concubine from the uncle's house used to live a life of poverty, but suddenly she got a lot of money from the raw silk business, so she must be rewarding herself. And looking at these bought things, all of them are the expenses of the daughter's family.

The surname Lu opened her mouth and said that she would definitely go to her employer.

This posture looks like he is going to find his boss?

For a moment, he wanted to lose the mission, and turned back to the mansion to complain to his husband: He said that the surname Lu was talking nonsense all day long, and none of the things he predicted were accurate.

But the next moment he realized that something was wrong!

You Fangyin had already hired a carriage on the way, got into the carriage after coming out of the temple, and had a word with the driver. It stands to reason that it is time to go back home. But she is very good at swordsmanship and archery, and her eyes are even better, she can see the feathers of birds ten feet away, and she can easily see the shape of You Fangyin's lips when she speaks—

That is definitely not the words "Qingyuan Bofu".

Dao Qin's heart trembled, and she immediately put away her previous contempt for this task, and silently observed the direction of the carriage, sometimes sprinting, sometimes taking shortcuts, and after a while, she saw the carriage going around far away. After passing a mansion, he stopped in front of the side door of the family that opened to the east.

You Fangyin got out of the car.

Daoqin raised her head to look at the plaque hanging on the door of the mansion, almost biting her tongue off in shock: "Okay..."

Mr.'s head is probably going to be bigger.

"Miss You, please come in."

Because of Jiang Xuening's orders, the concierge had already made preparations, so when Tang'er heard the news of You Fangyin's visit, she hurriedly picked him up, brought him to Jiang Xuening's room, and stepped forward to close the curtain. Report to the inside again.

"Second girl, someone is here."

The place where Jiang Xuening lives is much more beautiful than You Fangyin's shabby house. After she came back, she tidied up and adjusted some inappropriate decorations, and added some more suitable objects, which made her more fragrant. Soft boudoir feel.

The Boshan furnace on the table is still lit with Dulu incense with a clear and distant fragrance.

When You Fangyin walked in, she almost stared straight away.

Jiang Xuening didn't wear shoes in her room, she was barefoot, she didn't even comb her hair, she just sat cross-legged on the kang by the window in a casual and lazy posture, drinking tea and reading a book at the same time.

Just thinking of seeing Yan Lin in the evening, I couldn't turn a page for a long time.

Hearing someone coming, she looked up.

Sure enough, it was the same as what she pointed out yesterday, dressed very unremarkably, and bought a lot of things, so she nodded and smiled, and said: "It's still early, sit down."

You Fangyin saluted her first, but she refused to sit opposite Jiang Xuening no matter what.

Tang'er had no choice but to move an embroidery pier for her.

After this, she sat down with Jiang Xuening's head down, and said: "Second Miss is my savior, I'll just sit here."

Jiang Xuening wanted to persuade her, but when she thought about it, she felt uncomfortable in front of him. If she sat across from her, she might be so nervous that she couldn't even speak, so she just let it go.

Just said: "How was it when you came?"

You Fangyin said: "I did everything the girl said, and looked around when I went out, but I really didn't see anyone following me."

"If you can find out, then the follower is too stupid." Jiang Xuening couldn't help laughing, nodded and asked Tang'er to bring her tea, and said, "Anyway, you just do what I tell you." However, as for what will happen later, we have to wait and see. I called you here today because you were motivated yesterday. Since you want to make more money, you must find a way to make money. So in your I made some preparations before coming here, and I have a few ways to tell you."

You Fangyin suddenly opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Tang'er brought tea at this time.

While thinking about how she should answer, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to pick it up, but suddenly forgot that her hand was still injured, and accidentally touched it when she took the teacup. The sudden pain made her tremble her hand uncontrollably, Almost exclaimed!

"Snapped!"

The teacup was not held steady, and it fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

The tea splashed and wet people's clothes and skirts.

Tang'er was startled, and looked at You Fangyin with a surprised look: "Miss You, are you alright?"

"No, no, no, I'm fine." You Fangyin grabbed the fingers of her other hand with one hand, her face was full of panic and embarrassment, she never thought that she would be beaten because of careless recklessness in someone else's house. Turning over the teacup in the host's house, I felt extremely ashamed for a moment, "It's all my fault, I lost my mind just now."

Distracted?

She didn't look like she was distracted just now.

And just now when he went to pick up the tea that Tang'er brought over, it was as if he touched some sore spot and scalded it.

Jiang Xuening is not someone to be fooled with now, she stared at her for a moment, and said: "Come here." You Fangyin was a little scared and didn't dare to move.

Jiang Xuening only reached out to her, and still said, "Come here."

You Fangyin finally walked over.

Jiang Xuening lowered her eyes, didn't look at her, and directly pulled the hand she was holding just now, and saw that there was an opening on the tip of her finger, and the skin on the fingertips was turned up. The flesh and blood inside was exposed. Although the wound was not big, it hurt even looking at it.

You Fangyin subconsciously wants to hold back.

She was already embarrassed enough, but she didn't want to be seen by the second girl in front of her who had already helped her a lot, she cringed and said: "I was so happy to go back yesterday, I accidentally fell on the steps of the house and scratched my hand , nothing serious."

Jiang Xuening held her hand firmly, but did not let her withdraw it.

fell down?

This You Fangyin looked stupid, it was not impossible for something like walking and wrestling to happen to her.

but……

She didn't even answer a word, just opened her long sleeves that tightly covered her arms. On her arm, which already had many mottled scars, the old wounds have not yet healed, and it turned out to be blue, purple, and red. , added a lot of new injuries!

Tang'er and Lian'er next to them both gasped and couldn't bear it.

You Fangyin lowered her head deeply.

Jiang Xuening finally slowly raised her head to look at her again, and only asked: "Yesterday, your second sister You Yue also returned home from the palace, didn't she?"
