Chapter 300

Thinking like this, Zhan yunjiao hesitated, nodded lightly and asked, "then... How do I go to Xia mansion?"

Just now, Zhou Zhen seems to say that he wants to pass quietly. Why? Why on earth does Xia Xi want to see her?

And if she goes secretly and no one else knows that she has been there, is it the same... Even if something happens to her at Xia's house, no one will know?

At the thought of this, Zhan yunjiao could not help but flinch again.

Fortunately, Zhou's next words reluctantly convinced her——

"I've thought about this when I came here. I'm wronged. You disguise yourself as a servant girl next to me and go with me."

The worst thing Zhan yunjiao can think of is that she naturally wants to get it. If Xia Xi really just wants to vent her anger on others, she must not watch Xia Xi go crazy - it's not very kind, but she doesn't want to get involved in any trouble.

She knew her purpose to get close to Xia Xi, and she wouldn't do anything that outweighed the loss.

Zhan yunjiao was relieved.

Pretend to be a servant girl. At least you can walk into the door of Xia's house openly. You won't be able to walk out in the daytime.

Seeing her nodding, Zhou Lei asked the servant girl around him to exchange clothes with Zhan yunjiao.

Zhou Zhen ordered the servant girl to stay here temporarily to look after the sick mother for Zhan yunjiao.

On the way, seeing Zhan yunjiao's uneasy appearance, he was afraid to be seen too obvious. Zhou Zhen comforted: "don't worry, Miss Xia Si is actually a sensible person."

Sensible?

What is clear is the affairs of the underworld.

Thinking of what she saw the day before yesterday, Zhan yunjiao couldn't help thinking.

But you can only nod and try to make yourself look relatively calm.

The carriage drove slowly in the direction of Xiafu.

After zhanyunjiao helped Zhou Tuo out of the carriage, she bowed her head all the way and followed Zhou Tuo to Xia Xi's courtyard.

Xia Xi was forbidden, but the guests could still see her.

Hearing that Zhou Zhen came, she asked the servant girl to invite people in.

"Axi, I brought you your favorite Hibiscus cake today." Zhou zhe said with a smile as soon as he came in.

Zhan yunjiao, disguised as a servant girl, came forward slowly and put the food box on the small table on Xia Xi's side.

Xia Xi raised her eyes and looked at her. After a short accident, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows.

Zhou Zhen looked at Wen wentun and moved fast enough to get down to business.

"You all go out and watch." Xia Xi sent the servants waiting in the house.

Zhou Zhen quickly opened his mouth and said, "ah Xi, I just saw that many flowers in your yard are in bloom. Why don't I fold some for you and insert a bottle?"

It was because she vaguely guessed Xia Xi's plans that she didn't want to be involved - she didn't want to offend Miss Xu. After all, Miss Xu was no kinder than Xia Xi.

Sometimes it's useful to hide one's ears and steal a bell. She doesn't listen to some things and can pretend to know nothing afterwards.

Xia Xi just wanted to find someone through her. At this time, she nodded to let people go.

As soon as Zhou zhe left, Zhan yunjiao became more and more nervous, and her uneasiness was almost written on her face.

"You must be curious. Why did I want to see you?" Xia Xi sat in her chair and looked at the nervous girl standing there.

"At the beginning... I didn't know about my father and brother, but if Miss Xia si still has a blame, I'll compensate Miss Xia here." Zhan yunjiao whispered.

How can you blame her father and brother for that?

However, who let the Xia family still be the Xia family in the past? Even when her father was still there, she could only do so in front of Xia Xi.

The only difference was that at this time, she had more fear at the bottom of her heart, and she had no confidence.

However, as soon as her voice fell, Xia Xi heard a sneer.

"Do you really think I want to embarrass you for this? I don't have the leisure."

Really not?

She vaguely remembers that Xu Mingyi said that the Xia girl is like a person who is ill at leisure. If she has something serious to do, she won't be so ill.

But of course not.

"I don't know why Miss Xia is looking for me?"

"I want to ask you about something." Xia Xi took out two silver tickets from the box on her side, put them on the tea table, tapped them with her fingers, and said, "if you answer me satisfactorily, the silver ticket will belong to you."

She was really worried about the Zhan family, but she ran over such people with her fingers. She was not in a hurry.

Looking at the two silver tickets, Zhan yunjiao was a little excited.

She's really... Short of money.

"Miss Xia, but it doesn't hurt to ask."

Xia Xi looked at her: "I heard that you and Xu Mingyi have been neighbors for many years and grew up together. The relationship is very good?"

When she asked this, Zhan yunjiao's eyes dodged for a moment.

These words are just her big words

Seeing her expression, Xia Xi slightly twisted her eyebrows and said in an unhappy tone: "how?"

Did she find the wrong person?

Zhan yunjiao immediately noticed the key point of the problem and hurriedly said, "it's nothing... It's just that it was all in the past."

She realized that she must not say that she was unfamiliar with Xu Mingyi.

In addition, it is generally necessary to make a position clear in time——

Therefore, she then clenched her teeth and said: "I used to treat her as a good friend, but only in adversity can I see my sincerity... After the accident in my family, the people took the opportunity to invade our house and wanted to drive me and my mother out. I begged in front of her, but she didn't want to say a word for me and my mother... I think when she was poisoned and ill, my mother copied Scriptures for her and took care of her day by day She burned incense and prayed, but since my mother fell ill, she hasn't seen her face for half a time! "

Seeing that her expression was not like fraud, Xia Xi narrowed her eyes slightly.

It seems that Xu Mingyi has offended many people.

"So you should hate her, too?"

Hate?

Zhan yunjiao thinks there is.

In particular, she is now down to this point, but the other party is still a girl Xu from the town government who is still high and spoiled——

Zhan yunjiao didn't answer, but her face and tight lips explained everything.

Xia Xi sneered and asked, "if so, why don't you export evil for yourself and publicize her true face? Wouldn't it be a loss to hold it in your heart?"

Zhan yunjiao also smiled.

But this smile is full of self mockery.

"What can I do to vent my anger for myself now?"

"Yes." Xia Xi looked at her and said, "but I can give you a chance --"

The opportunity came so suddenly that Zhan yunjiao's expression was frozen.

She also... Doesn't really want this opportunity

She said that this was not how much she wanted to retaliate against Xu Mingyi, but to express her position. In the final analysis, it was all for making a living.

I can't eat enough. How can I consider these?

Besides, Xu Mingyi is not so easy to deal with. If he doesn't get this so-called opportunity, it will become an opportunity for reincarnation.

Zhan yunjiao took another look at the two silver tickets.

... No.

Seeing her expression, Xia Xi's heart stopped.

What does that mean? Don't you think she's generous enough?

"Don't worry, it's not just these things that wait for you when it's done." she added chips without trace. "How can silver alone be enough? You're no different from an orphan now. The most important thing is to find a good marriage and rely on it for the rest of your life."

Zhan yunjiao was stunned.

Marriage is her biggest worry now

My sister and mother can't count on it, and those people who have lost their conscience came a few days ago and deliberately forced her to be a concubine outside an old member

Sadly, after crying, she came up with the idea of compromise.

She has really had enough of such a life now. As long as she can live better than now, what's the matter with whom to marry? In the end, she has no choice.

But Xia Xi's words at this time rekindled hope in her heart.

In the past, she was also a proud person, and she did not like the family her sister married——

"You don't have to worry that I'll break my promise." Xia Xi said, "my second brother did it alone, and my father always knew the truth. You might as well think about it. Have you and your mother ever been sad by my Xia family?"

Zhan yunjiao shook her head slightly.

This is not true.

The people in the city were also preaching that Xia Shoufu killed his relatives in righteousness and did not protect his parents and children.

"Even so, it's not impossible for me to persuade my father to tell you a marriage. Besides, your brother has a good reputation after he threw himself into the river. You've also read books. You look good and know filial piety. If my Xia family comes forward to act as a matchmaker for you, you won't be able to find a similar marriage? In this way, you can also achieve a good reputation for my Xia family. Why not "And?" Xia Xi coaxed.

She is not a complete fool, but she is always impulsive and irritable. In addition, she has developed an arrogant temperament since she was young, and has always been unable to bear the slightest discomfort.

Zhan yunjiao was obviously persuaded.

A good marriage

And if the Xia family comes forward, the other party will not despise her in the future

In a short moment, she was about to fall into this beautiful fantasy.

She almost asked, "so... What can I do?"

Xu Mingyi has always been arrogant, that is to say that he treats their mother and daughter indifferently and ruthlessly, which must not arouse any spray at all - after all, Xu Mingyi's path is not a moral model. Such moral attacks are equally ineffective for her.

Xia Xi said, "first tell me what weaknesses Xu Mingyi has -"

Xu Mingyi's weakness?

Zhan yunjiao thought for a moment.

There was a long quiet in the house.

“……”

Xia Xi secretly bit her teeth.

"Why, is it hard to think?"

Is it difficult for her to make it clear that there is no weakness if there is no iron wall?

Zhan yunjiao looked a little complicated.

She really couldn't think of Xu Mingyi's weakness for the moment.

Moral attack is ineffective, but you can't fight

But

I don't know what I thought, Zhan yunjiao's eyes suddenly flashed.

"I think of one... In the past two years, someone in Beijing has always said that she Xu Mingyi is the first beauty in Beijing."

Xia Xi's eyes jumped.

She also heard this sentence from a servant girl in the house. She slapped her face on the spot.

Is Xu Mingyi the first beauty? Why didn't she know there were so many blind people in Beijing?

Besides, what kind of weakness is this?!

She frowned and looked at Zhan yunjiao: "... You think you're funny, don't you?"

"Miss Xia misunderstood..." Zhan yunjiao whispered, "but now Xu Mingyi is really a good name."

Xia Xi's eyes darkened when she heard the word "good name outside" she deliberately bit.

……

In the twinkling of an eye, four or five days passed.

There was a rain in the city last night, but it didn't add too much coolness. This morning, the sunlight bloomed, the branches and leaves soaked by the rain were greener, and the flowers were more beautiful and vigorous. There was a fresh and vigorous spring between heaven and earth.

Cai Jin, carrying a food box in her hand, steps on the wet path with embroidered shoes and goes to Xu Yun's residence.

Halfway up the road, I met Xu Mingshi head-on.

The little boy took a little boy with a book and pencil box in his hand. It was obvious that he was going to the library.

Just——

Cai Jin looks at the big bird behind Xu Ming. Her eyes are a little complicated.

Not long ago, she knew that the bird was raised at home and followed Mr. Xu most of the time. When she thought that the bird had thrown bird excrement into her house, she felt that she couldn't look directly at the gentle looking Mr. Xu.

Xu Mingshi already knew about it.

He was really wronged.

Who makes Tianmu a bird with only its own ideas?

This is also the reason why he will take Tianmu to study together now - he doesn't want to delay his children.

After separating from Cai Jinxing, Xu Mingshi met a guest in the front yard.

Looking at the wine in the hands of the maid behind the guest, Xu Mingshi sighed in the bottom of his heart - has Princess Yufeng come to see Xu Mingyi for a drink again?

In this regard, he had some opinions in his mind.

Once in his letter, he couldn't help mentioning it with Wu Shisun. As a result, Wu Shisun answered him roughly like this: if you want to open up, it's better to drink at home than outside.

He was a little surprised when he saw the reply.

Does Wu Shisun, who looks arrogant, actually be so good at self enlightenment and comfort?

But I have to admit that he did feel comforted by this thought.

Even on this basis, he took a step further - it's better to get drunk at home, so as not to go out and fool around.

Princess Yufeng came with wine and naturally stayed in the Xi garden for lunch.

After dinner, they went to feed fish in the garden.

The two girls leaned against the Zhu corridor of the waterside pavilion, both dressed in light Luo shirts, one blue and one white, with bright wrists and jade hands throwing fish food under their wide sleeves. The sunlight slanted in the pool water and sprinkled a piece of sparkling broken gold. It was hazy, and there was a breeze from time to time, which made the world seem to be drunk.

"Xu Zhaozhao, do you still have correspondence with that Wu?"

Princess Yufeng asked in a low voice with a gossip face.

During this period of time, she was concerned about helping the victims. When she got home, she had to deal with Xie dingning and those careless men. She didn't spare her hand to care about the emotional progress of Xu Zhaozhao in her family.

"This......" Xu Mingyi held his cheek in one hand and threw food into the pool in the other hand. There was a bright smile in his slightly drunk eyes: "naturally."

Princess Yufeng was stunned.

This is wrong

When she didn't know, did something happen that she didn't know?
