The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 485 Summation (1)

This is the first time for the husband and wife to meet at night since the Cold War. On weekdays, when Xiao Shao went out during the day and came back at night, Jiang Ruan had already rested. Naturally, there was no chance to speak. Who knew Xiao Shao came back so early today.After Jiang Ruan cleaned up, she didn't see Xiao Shao in the room, so she asked Tian Zhu, Tian Zhu said Xiao Shao was in the study.

Xiao Shao didn't know what he was busy with in the past few days, maybe there was something really happening in the study, but today happened to happen again, it seemed a bit strange for Xiao Shao to go to the study at this time.Probably Xiao Shao was sulking, as usual, Jiang Ruan felt that such Xiao Shao was a little cute, but after experiencing the incident between Jin Er and Lu Zhu, she would subconsciously think that Xiao Shao didn't believe herself.No woman can accept that her husband doubts herself, especially in terms of innocence.Jiang Ruan was also stubborn, she just hummed and fell asleep first, without any intention of going to the study to talk.On the contrary, Lin Butler, who was full of hope, waited outside the house for the two to reconcile and settle their feud, waiting all night for nothing.

……

It was night, above the Cheng family's mansion in the capital, there were heavy curtains and bamboo trees, but the melodious sound of the piano wafted from the courtyard of Miss Cheng's family.Every decoration in this courtyard is gorgeous and exquisite, showing elegance everywhere, even a pair of sculpted koi on the edge of the pond, all strive to be lifelike.This courtyard was originally built by Cheng Niannian, the daughter of the Cheng family, and Master Yao obviously demanded excellence from the craftsmen, which is why he has this exquisitely repaired courtyard, but it also shows from the side that this Cheng Niannian must be Governor Cheng's favorite, and that's why he made such a big splash fulfill her wish.

At this moment, the sound of the piano in that courtyard is also worthy of the scenery in this courtyard. Cheng Niannian is extremely intelligent and comes from the city of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he is not very proficient.If Jiang Susu was a talented woman in Beijing, Cheng Niannian would be the most intelligent woman in everyone's hearts. The most intelligent woman may not be the best in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is inexplicably more respected than that talented woman.

The two maidservants standing far away were discussing quietly: "This piece is really nice, why haven't I heard Miss play it before?"

"Stupid," another servant girl whispered, "it must have been created by myself. Our young lady is already smart. If the sound of this piano is spread outside, I think the title of No. gone."

"What nonsense are you talking about? What is the identity of Qin Niang? How can she be compared with our young lady?" said the smaller maidservant: "Recently, young lady likes to play the piano in the yard more and more. I don't know why. Could it be..." She thought of something and hurriedly stopped talking, but her expression was a little unstoppable worry.

In the gazebo in the courtyard on one side, a woman with long sleeves fluttered, and the corners of her clothes were turned up with tiny, dazzling silk thread patterns. A pair of slender hands fluttered up and down the strings. Go into people's hearts.

A moment later, the song ended, but Cheng Niannian didn't take back her hand, a pair of jade-stuttered hands were still covering the strings, her brows and eyes were light, but there was something inexplicable in her eyes, as if she could penetrate People's hearts go to the general.The corners of her lips curled up, looking at the strings in front of her, but she seemed to think of something else.Among the remaining ashes on the ground, there are scraps of paper that have been practiced for handwriting——Cheng Niannian has always expected perfection from himself, and there seems to be something else in the ashes, but those strange handwritings are mixed in the ashes, together with the firelight. It vanished into nothingness, leaving nothing behind.

Cheng Niannian said slowly, not knowing whether to tell others or herself: "Heart is like a rock, heart is like a rock, when two rocks collide, both will be hurt. Jiang Ruan, the one who guesses people's hearts?" Her smile A contemptuous meaning gradually emerged: "It's a joke."

There are indeed people in the world who can play tricks on people's hearts. I originally thought that since Jiang Ruan is quite famous, there is something special about it. Now, it seems that it is just spreading rumors. The woman is vulnerable, so there is nothing to be afraid of.There are many dark places in the human heart, which may be harmless, but the dark places are infinitely magnified, and at the right time, irreparable mistakes will be caused.

"The bait has been cast, and the shrimp has also been hung up." Cheng Niannian stretched out a hand and gently stroked the strings, but when he stroked the last string, he exerted force suddenly with his hand, and the string made a sharp cry , broke off at the sound.Cheng Niannian unhurriedly twirled the short string, smiled and said, "It's time to start."

　In the early morning of the second day, Jiang Ruan had just had breakfast, and before he arrived at the study, someone from the porter came to report, with a bag-like thing in his hand, and said that it was for the master of Jinying Palace, and asked if it was Who, the concierge couldn't give an answer, only said that it seemed to be the Mo family's carriage.This Mo family is naturally the residence of Mo Cong in the capital city. It is true that the master of the Jinying Palace is Xiao Shao, but now Jiang Ruan can be the master, and the concierge did not hesitate to hand it over to Jiang Ruan. , Jiang Ruan went back to the study and threw the bundle on the desk, but Tianzhu said: "Why don't you open it, Princess? If there are other important matters, it's not good to delay it."

From Tianzhu's point of view, if Mo Cong came to deliver things, it probably has something to do with business. Jiang Ruan is not an ignorant housewife. She can deal with some things very well. Now is the troubled time, and opportunities are very precious. Xiao Shao It will probably be late at night to come back, so it's better for Jiang Ruan to take it apart and see what it is.

Lian Qiao also hurriedly said: "Yes, my concubine, after all, it's all about the family's affairs." Lian Qiao's thoughts were not as far-reaching as Tian Zhu's, she just thought that now Jiang Ruanzheng and Xiao Shao are a little strange, so they can't stay so indifferent , this matter may not be an opportunity, Jiang Ruan thought for a while, then brought the burden in front of his eyes, and slowly unwrapped it.

There is nothing in the baggage, only a coat, and this coat is a black brocade gown embroidered with Suzhou embroidery, with silver bat patterns embroidered on the corner, it is Xiao Shao's There is a letter.

Mo Cong sent Xiao Shao's robe back for no reason. It was a strange thing, not to mention there was a letter. Without hesitation, Jiang Ruan opened the letter on one side. The letter was unfolded, and there were only two simple words on it: Thank you .It is the elegant lower case script commonly used by women, but the handwriting is neat and full of charm, and after such a superficial scan, I already think it is a good handwriting.It was just a letter of thanks, and the handwriting was already so unusual.And the content itself is also very thought-provoking. Luzhu's face changed drastically when she saw it, and she couldn't allow her to think about it. Maybe this matter was a little strange to her in the past, but now when she looks at these things, she can't help but think about it. A thought arises.With the lessons learned from Jin Er, how could she not be nervous, and her face immediately changed.

Tian Zhu's gaze also moved, and he stopped talking, Lian Qiao opened his mouth, apparently not knowing how to deal with the situation in front of him.Before the three of them spoke, they saw Jiang Ruan picking up the robe and slowly bringing it under the tip of their noses.Lianqiao and Luzhu both stared at her nervously. Although Tianzhu was not as nervous as Lianqiao and Luzhu, he refused to miss Jiang Ruan's expression without blinking.After a while, Jiang Ruan put down Xiao Shao's robe, and her expression remained unchanged from the beginning to the end. She threw the robe back into the bag, and then said to Luzhu: "Where is the gift from the General's Mansion prepared a few days ago?"
