It seemed that Manqing was indeed a professional, so she denied it resolutely.

On the other hand, Jingjing's attitude wasn't as resolute.

Thinking to this point, Jingjing sighed and said to Xiahou Ye, "It's indeed not your Manqing. Your Manqing is injured? Did I get separated from you? "

When Xiahou Ye heard Jingjing's words, she looked somewhat absent-mindedly at Manqing.

He stared at Manqing's unchanging expression for a while before slowly saying, "Yeah, you're not Manqing, Manqing wouldn't be like this, no one wouldn't know me, Manqing wouldn't."

The expression on Manqing's face did not change, but a strange look flashed in her eyes.

Jing Jing also sighed a little. She felt even more guilty about Xiahou Ye.

"Go take a bath, let's head back to the general's estate together." Jingjing said to the absent-minded Xiahou Ye.

Xiahou Ye nodded in a daze, as if she had just realized something.

Manqing lowered her head and looked at Xiahou Ye, Miss Qian, with a normal expression. She said, "Miss, please. This servant will serve you!"

Xiahou Ye Qian followed Man Qing into the room behind the screen as usual.

A wave of sighs was heard, followed by the sound of water.

Manqing skillfully helped Xiahou Ye wash her face and rinse her mouth, as she had done in the past.

However, Xiahou Ye Qian's mind had long since drifted off. How could she still think of such a thing?

The atmosphere turned strange.

Jingjing was waiting outside, drinking tea.

After a long time, Xiahou Ye Qian finally walked out from behind the screen.

Man Qing followed behind, the two of them had a strange expression on their faces.

Jingjing glanced at them, and calmly said, "Quickly get dressed, the carriage is ready."

The two of them nodded, and Jingjing pulled her to her makeup table. After seeing Manqing dry her hair with a dry towel, she put on some oil and began to comb her makeup.

He put on some simple jewelry and changed his clothes.

When Jingjing looked again, she couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise.

Although his face had been completely changed, it did not lose out to his original appearance.

It seemed that Ling'er had good intentions in not changing her appearance completely.

At the thought of this, Jing Jing was also slightly surprised.

Ling'er was actually a very smart person.

Otherwise, how could he produce such a shocking drug?

After dressing up, the three of them got into the carriage and rushed to Wang Xiahou's manor.

When they arrived at the general's manor, General Xiahou personally went to greet them at the entrance.

When they saw each other, they were speechless for a moment.

General Xiao Hou was the first to break the silence and asked Jingjing, "Daughter, this lady …" But your friend? "Why does it look so familiar? Have you brought it to your house before?"

Jingjing went blank for a moment as she looked at Xiahou Ye.

Xiahou Ye's expression darkened, and her lips moved for a long time. Finally, she moved the lips of her "father."

He bowed towards General Xiahou and said, "Uncle, this is the first time my daughter has come to your house."

General Xiahou nodded his head, "That's strange. Why does it look so familiar?"

Of course it looked familiar. They had just met yesterday.

However, he couldn't tell at the time. Now that he had washed up, he couldn't be seen at all.

General Xiahou nodded his head and said with regret, "You're the daughter of a good family. It's a pity that my son is already married off. Otherwise, you could come to my house and visit."

Xiahou Ye's eyes reddened, her face falling as she stammered, "What a pity. My daughter doesn't have such good fortune."

For some reason, when General Xiahou looked at her expression and tone, he felt a stifling pressure in his heart.

He couldn't help but shake off the thought and waved at the two: "Come in, Red light Guo is ready."

The two of them nodded and followed him inside.

Jingjing pulled Xiahou Ye's hand and patted the back of her hand. It was a sort of comfort.

The group of people entered the mansion together and walked into the Pu Zhen Garden.

In the great guest hall of Pu Zhen Garden, a banquet had already been set up, but there was not a single person inside.

The moment Jingjing walked inside, she smelled a familiar smell.

Turning her head to look, she saw many small round fruits that were bright red, causing Jingjing to blush.

Originally the so-called red light fruit, is the twenty-first century called the cherry fruit.

These fully grown, bright-red fruits were about the same size.

The stems were removed and stacked neatly on the plates.

This is a new kind.

Jing Jing happily walked up, she thought that this kind of fruit did not exist in this era.

Taking a closer look, one could see that each of the snow-white porcelain vases was emitting an alluring, sweet fragrance.

Jingjing chose a table and sat down. She opened the jar and took a look. Inside was a candied cherry.

They all washed up and removed the fruit cores.

When it was cooked, it was marinated in sugar.

After a few days, he covered it up and put it in the well. Only now did he take it out.

Without even thinking about it, Jingjing picked up the silver spoon that she had prepared earlier and scooped up a spoonful.

A sweet and refreshing feeling along with an icy cold taste made Jingjing squint her eyes in comfort.

He murmured, "So sweet …"

Most girls liked the sweet red fruit.

"You liked it since you were young." General Xiahou's voice rang out.

He said to Xiahou Ye, "If you don't mind, you can sit down as well. Do you like it?"

In ancient times, this cherry was not like the techniques of today.

It was very difficult to grow. In ancient times, there were very few people who could eat this red light fruit.

Even a nouveau riche would not have such a large tree, as this was not a tree that could be planted overnight.

Xiahou Ye looked at the things she had grown up in. Even though her so-called 'self' had already been married off, her father still thought of her like this.

However … This favor had been given to another woman.

Xiahou Ye Qian glared at Jingjing with resentment before quickly suppressing the look in her eyes. She sat down and lowered her head to cover the look in her eyes.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, General Xiahou …"

Saying so, he picked up the silver spoon and took a spoonful. A familiar taste spread to every single cell of his taste buds.

Her mind buzzed and heated up.

This, was really that familiar smell.

Jing Jing seemed to realize that she had lost control of herself, and she hurriedly restrained herself a little.

"Father prepared this for you," Xiahou Ye said in shock as he turned to look at her. "Use it more often."

Especially when he said the two words' Ye Xi 'with great emphasis.

Xiahou Ye was surprised for a moment before she lifted her head and looked at her. Her eyes softened in a strange way before she lowered her head again.

"Ye Qian, I heard that in the days that I wasn't in the city, you managed to learn the Jingjing Divine Palm?"

After a while, General Xiahou took advantage of the cold dishes to ask Jingjing, "What kind of divine palm is that?"

Jingjing glanced at Manqing and Xiahou Ye Xi and said, "Father, don't talk about this while we're eating."

General Xiahou's expression softened slightly. "Alright, let's have a chat in my study."

Jingjing nodded. Xiahou Ye Qian glanced at Jingjing with a strange expression and did not say anything.

After eating the entire banquet, everyone seemed to have lost all of their previous interest.

Those who saw that Jing Jing was sensitive enough to detect a trace of estrangement. For some reason, they didn't know why.

If it wasn't for Xiahou Ye's silence, Jingjing would have even regretted bringing her here.

After all, he was his father.

What Jingjing was worried about was how she was going to tell General Xiahou about her own Jingjing's Divine Palm.

After all, none of General Xiahou's preferences were faked.

She did not want to deceive this benevolent old man, nor did she want to speak the truth.

As she thought of the yellow page where she had hidden herself at home with the English pages of a magical song sheet … Her heart was inexplicably nervous.

He had a feeling that this mysterious power would bring her a lot.

Including experience, including tempering.

In fact … There may also be many other things, such as — feelings.

After the meal, General Xiahou asked Manqing to accompany him around the Puzhen Courtyard and the General's Estate.

Jingjing accompanied Xiahou Ye Qian to the study of the general's estate.

The number of times Jing Jing came to the study room, she didn't even have enough fingers.

After the two of them entered the study, General Xiahou ordered all the servants to withdraw. They looked at Jingjing with a mysterious expression.

After the door was closed, General Xiahou pulled Jingjing to a seat and personally poured her a cup of tea. He said with a slightly excited expression, "Daughter, quickly tell me how you refined the Jingjing Divine Palm and killed Ge Lu."

Jingjing picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Looking at General Xiahou, she smiled and asked, "Father didn't hear, did your daughter break into the underground palace?"

General Xiahou's eyebrows rose as he said unhappily, "Of course I heard about it. I haven't scolded you yet."

Finished speaking, he pretended to be serious as he looked at Jingjing and said, "You are not allowed to do such risky things in the future, this time you might be lucky and be fine. But, if something were to happen, how are you going to let Father live? "

Jing Jing's eyebrows jumped, the guilt in her heart rose again.

General Xiahou looked at her expression and roughly knew what she was thinking. "The rumors in the underground palace are that scary. You actually dared to charge in?"

"Huh?"

Jingjing had originally planned on a cute, training look, but who would have thought that General Xiahou would suddenly change the subject?

For a moment, Jing Jing was unable to react.

General Xiahou said, "You really are my, Xiahou's, daughter. You really are a tiger father without a dog."

Jingjing looked up.

He looked at the excited and proud expression on General Xiahou's face.

For a moment, he didn't know how to react.

For a time, he didn't quite understand what the old man was thinking.

Didn't he worry about her just now?

Why did he look like a child who had not yet forgotten himself, feeling that his actions were very brave?

Jing Jing was staring at him with a puzzled expression.

General Xiahou gave a fake cough.

He pretended to be serious and said, "Of course, although your courage is commendable, but remember this."

"Father, please speak!"

"In the future, no matter what happens, you must remember one thing. Father doesn't want anything to happen to you. You must not let yourself be in danger. Do you understand?"

Jingjing nodded her head, "Daughter understands."

The serious expression on General Xiahou's face moved Jingjing.

He continued, "Of course, with your matter this time, your father wants to praise you. He is not criticizing you, but a brave child."

Jingjing lowered her head, her heart was filled with emotions.

However, he didn't want to see the scene in front of General Xiahou's eyes turn red.
