The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

   Chapter 430 Lead the snake out of the hole

   There was something in the military camp today. When Xiao Qirui returned to the mansion, it was already dark, and the faint light from the Jinxiu courtyard could be seen from a distance, and voices could be faintly heard in his ears.

   He took a few steps closer to hear more clearly, but before he got close, footsteps came, and Xiao Qirui hurriedly turned to leave.

   "Uncle?" A surprised voice came from behind.

   The only one who could call him that was the maid next to Yuan Yuwan, Xiao Qirui stopped, and You Bai had trotted a few steps ahead of him to block his way.

   Xiao Qirui had no choice but to nod at her: "I passed by."

  Youbai didn't notice anything wrong with him, and said happily: "That's right, can the uncle have dinner?"

Xiao Qirui had already used it in the barracks, and was about to nod his head to say that he had used it, when he heard You Bai say again: "This slave has got the lady's order and is going to the front yard to invite my uncle to come to Jinxiuyuan for dinner. I didn't expect to meet you here. Uncle."

  Youbai has been happy since hearing Yuan Yuwan's order in the afternoon, she is really happy.

   She knew that the young lady was cold-hearted now, but after a woman got married, she simply lived on the favor of her husband, and had a child and a half-daughter by her side.

  If her young lady has nothing, and now the Xiao family will treat her kindly because of guilt, what about in the future?

  The rule of seven, no child is one of them, Young Bai dare not think about what will happen to her young lady.

   "What did your lady instruct?" Xiao Qirui asked incredulously, swallowing the words.

  Youbai nodded again and again: "Yeah, the lady ordered in the afternoon, in order to wait for the uncle, I haven't eaten yet..."

   Before her voice fell, Xiao Qirui had already turned and walked towards Jinxiuyuan.

  I ordered this and haven’t eaten yet, isn’t it a joke?

  Youbai was stunned for a moment, and she covered her lips and snickered, look, she said that the uncle has a young lady in his heart.

   rolled his eyes somewhere, and snorted happily after catching up with his uncle.

  On the path, a little maid watched Xiao Qirui enter the Jinxiu Courtyard, and hurriedly turned around and ran back to the Magnolia Courtyard to report the letter.

   "Hi~" "What did you say, husband went to Jinxiuyuan?" Feng Manman's finger was pricked by a needle, and asked in disbelief.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. The eldest young master was about to come to our yard, but he was stopped by Young Bai who was next to the young lady. I don't know what she said. The eldest young master turned around and went to the Jinxiu courtyard." The little maid said cautiously. .

  Feng Manman can almost imagine Xiao Qirui's expression at that time, happy? surprise?

   A strong jealousy flooded into his heart.

   She didn't understand why Yuan Yuwan, who had always been fake and arrogant, seemed to have changed her personality today.

  Others thought that Xiao Qirui was very fond of her. Before entering Xiao's house, even she herself thought that he had her in his heart to some extent, but the reality gave her a slap in the face.

   Xiao Qirui married her really just to repay her kindness, just to give her a place to live. He would rather lay a floor than sleep with her...

   "Auntie, do you want to set dinner?" the little maid asked.

   A gleam of light flashed in Feng Manman's eyes, and it was fleeting. She shook her head, lowered her head and continued to do the embroidery work in her hands, saying: "I have no appetite, so I won't eat it."

The little maid knew that Feng Manman was disfigured to save the eldest young master, and she could have been the wife of the common people. Seeing her so unbearable, she comforted: "Don't worry, auntie, the eldest young master rests in our yard more often than the main yard. There are a lot of them, so it can be seen that the eldest young master is interested in the concubine, and he will come over in a while."

   The corners of Feng Manman's lips under the veil evoked a mocking arc. She took so many breaks, all for you fools, just to make her aunt not be looked down upon in this mansion.

   Obviously such a good person, yet so heartless.

   In the Jinxiu Courtyard, the two of them finished their meal quietly, and You Bai thoughtfully put on a tea cup and stepped back.

Xiao Qirui ate a little too much, didn't touch the tea cup, looked at Yuan Yuwan sitting opposite, and said seriously: "I will try to come back as early as possible in the future, if I come back late, you don't have to wait for me, don't... don't be hungry. Own."

   After he finished speaking, he felt that what he said was a bit wrong, and they didn't say that they would invite him over for dinner every day, which made him seem a little self-indulgent.

   Noticing that Yuan Yuwan had a new hairpin on her head, she quickly changed the subject and said, "This jade hairpin suits you very well."

   His expression did not seem to be fake, it was clearly the first time he saw this hosta.

   Guessing what, Yuan Yuwan smiled lightly: "Really? Aunt Feng gave it to me."

   The two of them had very little time to sit and talk, and it was the first time that Feng Manman was mentioned.

   Before he could speak, Yuan Yuwan continued: "I heard that the Major General chose him, which means that the Major General has a good vision."

   Xiao Qirui was stunned: "She said I chose it?"

   He did buy a hairpin, but that hairpin is still in his study to this day.

  Yuan Yuwan picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Well, I made some snacks today and asked the maid to give them to her. This is her return gift."

   A few pieces of dim sum will return a hosta, either too rich or too rich.

  Xiao Qirui woke up from the joy of Yuan Yuwan inviting him to have dinner together. He pursed his lips and stood up and said, "There is still something to do in the study, I... I'll come back later."

   After speaking, she was afraid that Yuan Yuwan would misunderstand, and explained: "I'm laying the floor, and you are in charge of the house now. It's not good if I don't come."

   Yuan Yu nodded and did not refuse.

   Xiao Qirui just walked away when Young Bai came in and said happily, "My uncle said that he will come back later."

   "I know." Yuan Yuwan took off the hosta and put it in front of the dresser: "Let them fetch me water for a bath."

"Hey." You Bai commanded the outside, stepped forward to help Yuan Yuwan put down her bun, and sighed, "You can't be stupid again in the future, young lady, there is no reason to push your husband into another woman's room. It should be like today."

   If she had known that Mrs. Song could persuade her young lady, why would she have to worry about it for so long.

  Yuan Yuwan glanced at her without explaining that she had no intentions, otherwise the girl would have to talk again.

   On the other side, as soon as Xiao Qirui left Jinxiuyuan, he asked Xiao Li to check what happened in the daytime.

  The big family has always been male and female, but it does not mean that they really know nothing about the affairs of the house, but they seldom ask about it if there is no major event.

  I really want to investigate it, but I really can't hide it from them.

   After a while, Xiao Li came back and repeated what Shen Yijia had come to the house during the day and what Feng Manman had said in return with the jade hairpin.

   As for what Shen Yijia and Yuan Yuwan said, I don't know. At that time, there was no one by their side to wait on them.

   Xiao Qirui frowned, Feng Manman told him every time he hoped that he and Yuan Yuwan would clear up the misunderstanding, but...

"Young master, my subordinates have asked. You asked the housekeeper to buy the jewelry in Aunt Feng's room." Xiao Li admires the young lady who just entered the door. This time, the young master should always see that Aunt Feng is that kind of thing. Face to face with a set of people behind a set of it.

   Xiao Qirui also remembered this at this time. That day, he heard a few maids in the Magnolia Court talking behind his back that Feng Manman was so desolate that he didn't even have any decent jewelry.

   This kind of maid, who didn't even care about the master, was naturally sold by him, and he also instructed the steward to arrange some things to send to the Magnolia Garden.

   Wanted to come, Feng Manman mistakenly thought that he had chosen it himself.

  Xiao Li couldn't hear his voice, otherwise he would vomit three liters of blood with anger, and sigh again, his young master is really helpless.

   After all, it is a life-saving grace that protects each other. Yuan Yuwan didn't expect Xiao Qirui to doubt Feng Manman so easily, but the seeds were planted, and they would always take root and sprout.

   Besides, she did this mainly to show Feng Manman, reminding Xiao Qirui that it was just incidental.

   Shen Yijia never thought that the original intention of telling Yuan Yuwan those things was to make her be careful about Feng Manman, but it turned out that they did the opposite and deliberately angered Feng Manman, trying to lead the snake out of the hole.

   Indeed, Feng Manman was overwhelmed by jealousy, so he couldn't think much about doing things, and it was easy to reveal his faults.

   On the other hand, Yuan Yuwan was even more dangerous.

  Shen Yijia was lying on the bed and told Song Jingchen about the Xiao family.

   "General Xiao knows what's in his heart." Song Jingchen knew that she was holding grievances for Yuan Yuwan, and her heart was sour, but she still needed comfort.

"I know, otherwise he wouldn't have arranged for two maids who know martial arts to go to Sister Yuwan." Shen Yijia puffed out her cheeks, turned over and rolled into Song Jingchen's arms: "I also asked Mo Yuan to go to Feng Manman's room to see if she could. If you can't find the antidote, I didn't expect people to hide it so deeply that you can't find it at all."

   She also took advantage of La Feng Manman to check her pulse. As Mo Yuan said, when the heart-eating poison does not attack, it is no different from ordinary people, and it is impossible to detect it at all.

   "Life-saving medicine will naturally be carried with you." Song Jingchen knew that Shen Yijia wanted to help, but did not attack her.

   rubbed her hair and said softly, "General Xiao is watching over Feng Manman, don't worry about it, go to sleep."

   Shen Yijia thought about it too, nodded obediently, and closed her eyes.

   A night without dreams.

The last time he returned from disappointment, Xuanyuance didn't go to Mingxiangju again, but continued to soak in various brothels, and even spent a lot of money for a certain Hua Kui, when people thought that he had no interest in Mingxiangju, Mingxiangju was there. Instead, he took the initiative to invite him.

   Xuanyuan Ce ignored it for the first time, and when Mingxiangju sent out the third invitation in succession, Xuanyuan Ce brought people along with a lack of interest.

   It was the same small attic last time, and it was the same woman who led the way.

   But this time, she didn't ask Xuanyuance which tea master she would arrange to serve, but suggested that the person brought by Xuanyuance should take off the mask.

   Xuanyuan Ce frowned and said displeasedly: "You don't have so many requirements to enter your Daxia Palace, why do you have so many things here?"

  The woman Fushen apologized: "The guests who come to our Mingxiangju are all rich or expensive. If something happens, we at Mingxiangju can't afford it, and I hope the lord will be considerate."

   Xuanyuan Ce: "What if you don't pick it?"

   "Then the fate between the prince and our Mingxiangju will stop there."

  Xuanyuan Ce stared at her for a long time, but the latter did not give in at all.

   He sneered: "You Mingxiangju had better satisfy this king, otherwise..."

   "Naturally." The woman smiled and gave Xuanyuan Ce a wink.

  Xuanyuance's forehead throbbed, remembering that he is now a romantic guy who only knows how to find flowers and lose willows, so he didn't roll his eyes.

   He leaned back lazily and instructed, "You two, take off your masks."

   The two people standing behind him looked at each other, raised their hands and slowly removed the mask from their faces, revealing two unfamiliar faces.

   At first glance, it was amazing, but when she noticed the scars on the faces of the two, the woman was taken aback.

  The scar seemed to divide the faces of the two people into two, one side was white and flawless, and the other side was indeed pitted.

  Xuanyuan Ce sneered: "It's what you want to see, but it's not that this king does not pity fragrance and cherish jade."

   "Their faces..." The woman lowered her head and didn't dare to take a second look.

   "Accidentally burned, why, I want this king to tell you why the burn was not successful?" Xuanyuan Ce said impatiently.

  The woman said apologetically: "It's the slave family's rudeness, the two of you should put on your masks."

  The two took advantage of the opportunity to put on the mask, and in a place where others could not see, the petite one secretly stretched out his little thumb to hook the other person.

The meaning of    is obvious.

   These two are none other than Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia in disguise.

The scar on   's face was made of pig skin by Shen Yijia, who had nothing to do with Mo Yuan, and was inspired by Feng Manman.

   This time, Shen Yijia wanted to try the effect, but it just worked.

  The woman confirmed the identities of the two and proposed that they should not carry weapons.

   Xuanyuance's face was as black as ink and asked the two to put down their swords, and Shen Yijia also took the initiative to take out the dagger that was with him.

The    woman then smiled and clapped her hands, and several women dressed as guards came over.

   Xuanyuan Ce narrowed his eyes and asked coldly, "What does this mean?"

The woman took out a handkerchief from her bosom and walked behind Xuanyuance herself, exhaling like a lantern: "Everyone knows that the lord is here at our Mingxiang Residence, and we will never dare to harm the lord, so the lord can rest assured, the slave family. I just want to give the prince a surprise."

   Xuanyuan Ce restrained his disgust and did not move, letting the woman cover her eyes with a handkerchief.

  Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia are also treated the same.

   Someone helped them down the attic.

   He couldn't see his eyes, so he could only follow the other side. After about a tea time, the people around him stopped and heard the sound of wooden boards moving, and took a step forward.

   followed by the whirring sound of the wind, and it was obvious that the body was descending with the things being stepped on.

  Song Jingchen sneered, the paths just walked were just confusing, and finally took them up to the attic.

  I pressed the switch in the attic, and from here, I went down to the basement directly on the lift board.

  If he guessed correctly, the lift plate is under the table table, and it is the table table that has just been moved.

   As time passed, there were more and more voices around, chatting and laughter, silk and bamboo music, the sound was in the ear, and the tip of the nose was a faint fragrance.

   followed him for a while before the veil in front of him was removed.

  What comes into view is a magnificent lobby, with five stone pillars standing in the center of the lobby, wooden floors on the ground, and several floors of attic when looking up, looking out the gate is a wall...

   If they didn't know in advance that this was underground, they would have thought it was a single-family yard.

  The woman was very satisfied with the shock in the eyes of the three of them, and said with a smile, "My lord, I still need Miss Lan Qing to serve you."

  ——

  Xiao Qirui: I only have to play the floor...
