Chapter 163: Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes

Chapter 163 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes

That kind of silence, even passing by, gives people the feeling of death. In an instant, she thought of Yang Dayang Er, who followed her secretly before,

And Yang Dayang Er is a dark guard from the Royal Dark Guard Battalion.

Thinking of this, she was shocked and raised her head suddenly.

Su Gongzi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, saw Shen Mingjiao, and surprise flashed across his originally calm eyes.

Not because of her looks, but because of the extravagance she inadvertently showed in her gestures. After all, Shen Mingjiao was married to the royal family for ten years in her previous life. Although she has a lazy temperament and loves to enjoy herself, after a long time of nurturing, some manners and manners are almost slowly carved into her bones.

Ordinary people will only think that she has a good temperament when they see her.

But he lived in such a place since he was a child, and he could tell at a glance that even if Shen Mingjiao was not born in the royal family, his status would definitely not be low.

He lowered his eyes, his heart tightened, he didn't know whether the other party came here by accident, or...

Shen Mingjiao saw that he was silent for a long time, she raised her eyes and scanned the courtyard, pointed to a jujube tree with luxuriant branches and leaves and said with a smile:

"This jujube tree is well-raised, but it's still not as luxuriant as the hundred-year-old pagoda tree in Xihuamen. Don't you think so, Young Master Su?"

After finishing speaking, he fixed his eyes on the other party's reaction, and saw that the other party was still sitting with a flat expression, as if he didn't hear the words at all.

Shen Mingjiao felt intuitively that he understood, she smiled, said nothing more, and sat down on a stone bench beside her leisurely, quietly waiting for the two sisters Cuihua to finish their work and leave.

Master Su clenched his hand hanging by his side,

There is a hundred-year-old pagoda tree in Taiji Palace, which is close to the west of Xihuamen, and there leads to the west inner courtyard of the palace.

As we all know, the West Inner Courtyard is the place where the imperial guards practice daily, and it is also the place where the royal secret guards are trained.

This woman actually knows his identity, so what is his purpose in saying this? Is it pure curiosity, or...

If the latter...

A cold killing intent flashed across his eyes.

Just as the two were silent with each other, a hoarse female voice, male and female, resounded in the silent courtyard.

"There is a visitor, and my master didn't come to greet him immediately. It's really rude."

Shen Mingjiao unconsciously covered her ears, this voice, so Su, seemed to be whispering in her ears!

She smelled and turned her head, only to see a tall woman coming in from a small door on the side of the yard.

Different from the other girls in Taohua Island, the girl in front of her has a slender waist and long legs, a very good figure, and a honey-colored skin, but she is more sassy and neat.

She was supposed to be a charming and sassy beauty, but she was wearing a delicate and graceful cross-neck long skirt, which seemed nondescript.

Shen Mingjiao stared at the intricate embroidery on it, her eyes were surprisingly bright.

This is a style that was popular in the capital a few years ago, so here comes the question, why does such a dress appear on Taohua Island, which is isolated from the world? It can't be that they made it by themselves, right?

Shen Mingjiao met his sharp eyes and paused in her heart. After staying with the people in Su Wang's Mansion for a long time, she has gained some knowledge.

She was almost certain that the woman in front of her had seen blood, and she might be a ruthless character.

Shen Mingjiao smiled slightly at the woman: "The owner of the island is being polite. If there were no simple and kind residents in Peach Blossom Island, where would I be adrift?"

She is really grateful, if it is not Cuihua and the others, even if she is rescued, she will not be able to please her with her appearance.

The woman stepped forward and took her hand: "My name is Miyue, I don't know how to call you?"

"Shen Mingjiao."

Miyue smiled and praised: "It's a nice name!"

Su Gongzi on the side lowered his eyes and pondered. He has been with his master for many years and knows all the dignitaries who have shocked the city and are famous. It seems that there is no surname Shen among them?

Mi Yue pulled Shen Mingjiao to sit down, and a woman brought some strange fruits. "This is a delicious fruit on our island, Miss Shen, try it."

Shen Mingjiao picked up a blue fruit after arriving at Xiehou.

Miyue took out a dagger from her arms, picked up a yellow fruit the size of a fist, peeled it, removed the seeds and sliced ​​it neatly, and handed it to Young Master Su carefully.

"This was just received this morning, try it."

Mr. Su took it, and politely said thank you. Shen Mingjiao could feel the other party's obvious alienation.

Mi Yue lowered her eyes dimly, in order to divert her attention, she smiled and said to Shen Mingjiao:

"I heard from the people below that Ms. Shen gave Wujiazhuang a new food that is ground into flour from wheat. This is a great contribution to our Peach Blossom Island. I will thank Ms. Shen on behalf of the residents of Peach Blossom Island."

Shen Mingjiao waved her head: "Master Miyue Island is very polite. I think the people on the island are relatively humid. I happen to have a prescription for regulating dampness in my hand, and you can find all the necessary medicinal materials on the island. I don't know Miyue Island. Does Moon Island Master need it?"

Mi Yue casually took a bite of the fruit: "Of course it's excellent, but our island has always advocated the exchange of goods at equal value. I wonder what Miss Shen wants?"

Shen Mingjiao pursed her lips and smiled slightly:

"Island owner Miyue is really a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. As long as the island owner can send me out of here, I will be very grateful."

Hearing this, Mi Yue couldn't help looking at Mr. Su beside him, and saw that although he was still sitting expressionlessly, his body was unconsciously tense.

She clenched her fists, and shook her head apologetically to Shen Mingjiao: "I really can't help you, our family has lived on Peach Blossom Island for generations, and no one has ever stepped out of this sea area, so how would they know the way out?"

Shen Mingjiao has been paying attention to the two of them, so she naturally noticed Mi Yue's look at Mr. Su just now. She thought that the other party didn't want to let Mr. Su leave at that time, so she didn't want to say it in front of Mr. Su.

She nodded understandingly, indicating that it's okay, she was thinking of other ways.

At this time, the Cuihua sisters came over with several packs of medicine, and Shen Mingjiao took advantage of the opportunity to say goodbye.

Miyue had them sent to the door. After they had left completely, Mi Yue asked Young Master Su who was sitting in a wheelchair and closed his eyes, "You knew Miss Shen before?"

Obviously Shen Mingjiao saw it the moment she entered the yard.

Master Su shook his head. "Then you are from the same place?"

Master Su did not deny it,

After a while, he said: "Help me find out how Shen Mingjiao came to Peach Blossom Island, is there anyone else with me?"

Miyue raised her eyebrows and looked at him, and said in that hoarse voice:

"It's the fifth day, and you're finally willing to talk to me."

Mentioning this matter, Mr. Su's face paled again, and he lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Miyue's eyes were hurt, thinking of the culprit of all this, her eyes could not help showing disgust and jealousy.

…

Shen Mingjiao and the three left the island owner's house, Ruhua asked curiously: "What are you talking about with the island owner? Why is the island owner still smiling at you?"

Shen Mingjiao asked: "Your island owner is usually very fierce to you?"

Ruhua scratched her head: "It's not very fierce, she often smiles at us, but I don't know why, I'm always inexplicably afraid of her, probably because he is the owner of the island!"

Shen Mingjiao nodded approvingly on her face, but she was thinking in her heart that she had to find another opportunity to talk to the island owner about how to leave here, and the talk had to be done when that Mr. Su was not present.

Now that the matter is over, the two sisters Cuihua plan to go back.

Several people walked for a while, and when they passed an alley, they heard the sound of fighting in the distance. Cuihua Ruhua and the two sisters immediately stepped forward eagerly, obviously very interested in this kind of fighting.

Shen Mingjiao raised his forehead, sure enough... wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Although the folk customs here can be regarded as simple, there are still many incidents of fighting.

Shen Mingjiao walked over slowly a few steps, and saw from a distance many little girls surrounded by the alley, all around seven or eight years old, and they were forming a circle and punching and kicking people on the ground.

Shen Mingjiao heard the sound of punching to the flesh, only felt a burst of toothache, how painful it was!

Although they are only seven or eight years old, their strength may be much stronger than hers.

Ruhua backed away in disappointment, pouted and said, "It's Mr. Su's son who is so oily. If you say that kid is unlucky, he will be beaten almost every time he goes out. Every time he is more ruthless."

Shen Mingjiao: "Is there no one to care about?"

Ruhua disagrees: "It's just children fighting, who will care!"

She lowered her voice: "And I heard many people say that this is all the island owner's acquiescence."

Shen Mingjiao was surprised: "Young Master Su doesn't care? Why did the island owner do this? It's because he is Young Master Su's son!"

Ru Hua nodded as a matter of course: "Young Master Su is not in good health. You have to stay in the yard all day, how do you know this?"

But at this moment, one of the girls who seemed to be the oldest raised her foot and seemed to kick the person on the ground hard.

The next moment, she let out a piercing scream, and the boy lying on the ground suddenly exploded. He was obviously covered in blood and was in a mess, but he pushed the girl to the ground with all his strength, and stared at her coldly.

But he was alone after all, and when the girl was pushed down, two younger girls beside him angrily lifted their feet and kicked him far away.

With a "bang", he slammed into a wall on one side, twitching his body and standing up desperately.

Shen Mingjiao just felt in her heart how hard this child is?

As soon as Shu Ran looked up, she saw the boy's face, and her expression changed drastically.

That's...Shuo'er!

I tried too hard to lose weight, causing my whole body to fall apart and lying on the bed, I didn’t want to move^

I always feel that this weight loss will fail again ()
