Luo Baiqiong’s smile froze on her face and opened her eyes widely. She looked around, finding that everyone, besides Peng Jian, was spitting the tea out into their mugs. And the cousin called Peng Jian spayed the tea on Peng Shi’s face, which irritated Peng Shi.
Luo Baiqiong was confused. Then she drank the tea and spat it out on the fine carpet immediately. “Bah, what’s wrong with it? Mammy, you said this tea was...” Her voice became higher and was quite different from her gentle voice just now. She was scared and looked at Mammy Tang. Then she looked at Madam Luo who sat in the main seat. And finally, she turned her head and stared at He Danggui.
He Danggui was puzzled about their response. For ten years, no one had responded like this to her Hawthorn tea. But why did eight persons spit out her tea today? Therefore, she picked up her cup and tasted the tea with doubt. Then she was stunned.
Madam Luo was extremely angry to see the tea show bei
Peng Jian curled his lips and said, “Come on! Could a childe who likes drinking juice take a sword?”Peng Shi also chatted with Meng Xuan, “Master Xuan, which academy are you in?”“Yinghui Academy at the capital. What about you two?” Meng Xuan answered while looked at He Danggui who was on the opposite side of the passage. That little girl tilted her head and showed a thoughtful look. Meng Xuan wondered what she was thinking about.“Well.” Peng Jian smiled, “We were schoolmates. My brother and I attended at Yinghui Academy before, but now we’ve transferred at Chengxu Academy.”“The learning atmosphere of Chengxu Academy is not as good as Yinghui Academy. I can tell by your accents. You come from the capital. But why did you leave to study at Chengxu Academy in Yangzhou City?” Meng Xuan looked at that little girl again and found that she smiled as if she figured out something. It seemed that opening a casket which held a legendary l
“Riding and archery? We can’t choose that!” Madam Luo was vexed, “Music? Yi can play the instrument, but she needs to read books when having music class, right? In fact, Yi was busy learning instrument, go, dance and music in childhood, so she had no time to learn how to read. I plan to let her learn needlework, virtue and etiquette in the academy first, then she can learn some words. Anyway, the classes in women’s academy are relaxing, whatever the educational background of a girl is, she will not lag behind. By the way, Qiong will have music classes and she can play the instrument very well.” She pointed at Luo Baiqiong who was sitting in front of the instrument at the center of the hall and smiled, “Shizi, please listen.”He Danggui carefully looked at Duan Xiaolou’s profile, full of confusion. He didn’t know Meng Xuan, the one he had chased before, and even her. Hadn’t he lost his memory? Or he just pretended not to know her? But why? It wasn’t a secret that they ha
“Don’t bother.” A hoarse voice came from the door, “It’s me.” Along with this voice, a young woman in blue stepped into the palace slowly. It was Luo Baiying. She glanced at Luo Baiqiong coldly and scolded, “You are nervous and shouting when you encounter something unexpected. You are not calm at all. Is this how Luo’s Family’s daughter should be? Don’t make yourself a joke.”Luo Baiqiong pointed to He Danggui and said aggressively, “Why do you blame me? She started this. She said that someone was eavesdropping on the roof. It was going to be dark, and there were officers and soldiers outside to search the mansion and confiscate our possessions. I was scared at the moment.”Luo Baiying didn’t look at He Danggui. She still squinted Luo Baiqiong and said, “I’m talking about being the daughter of Luo’s Family. Since you are a family, listen to me carefully and bear what I said in your mind. Why bother to care about others? Haven’t you heard of the story that t
The villain who captured Madam Luo was about 1.7 meters tall and his voice sounded hoarse. If it wasn’t his innate voice, he must be hiding his true voice deliberately. According to his Adam’s apple, skin color and body shape, they could be sure that the villain was a man on his thirties.He Danggui also noticed that there were attractive purple lights in his red eyes. And maybe he was the person “you-know-who” that Chan Yi mentioned. If his purple eyes weren’t born that way, it could be caused by practicing some immoral kung fu and then he was possessed by the Devil. Thinking of his action of sucking blood, the truth was more likely to be that. However, these were not what He Danggui cared about the most, and what she wanted to know badly was that--“Come clean! Where did you get this facial mask?” He Danggui stood up rapidly and took some steps forward to the vampire lord. Her voice sounded anxious. Why was he wearing her collection?This was
Later, Duan Xiaolou came and begged Geng Bingxiu to act as a matchmaker for proposing to the little girl. On the surface, Geng Bingxiu found several excuses such as “it’s not right to make decisions without parents’ permission”, “you should marry a matched woman,” or “it’s better to consider comprehensively about marriage”. In fact, he was just a little afraid to see those eyes again. He didn’t know if it was his illusion. After he saw that scene in the back alley of the kitchen, he thought of the last time when Tai Shan asked He Danggui to reply their question about the resurrection from death. At that time, her eyesight was so cold as if he were judged by her!After that, he went back to the capital. Duan Xiaolou, who failed to propose marriage last time, heard that he was about to go to Yangzhou City again for work, and then came to ask him again to act as a matchmaker and propose to Luo’s Family. Then, he didn’t know why he agreed.Therefore, when he ca
Luo Baiying probably understood that Madam Luo wanted to tell her some “last words” which could not be said publicly. But she was unwilling to take a risk. If she was also taken as a hostage by the masked man, it was worthless to hear Madam Luo’s last words. Luo Baiying waited for a moment and expected the masked man to stop her from offering the tea. Since he refused He Danggui to come near, he certainly would not call her to send tea. But waiting for a long time, the masked man was still silent, so Luo Baiying had to face Madam Luo’s expectant eyes, “Grandma, I’m sorry that I don’t know how to make tea.”Madam Luo also knew that it was dangerous to call Luo Baiying here, but she was the most stable and reliable member of Luo’s Family present. However, Madam Luo didn’t expect that the granddaughter she loved most should refuse her “last request”! Madam Luo was extremely angry, so she looked at Luo Baiqiong and ordered, “Qiong, offer me a cup of tea!” Madam Luo was glad
At this time, He Danggui gave the third cup of tea to Meng Xuan, who took it to taste. The confused look in his eyes flickered in the dense vapor.Meng Xuan always thought that the girl was different, but he didn’t figure out her uniqueness. Now he found that the girl acted like a noble. For example, she walked slowly and quietly, but her dress did not move a little. When she talked, her expressions are relaxed, as if she was an official dealing with “diplomatic affairs”. If she was not born in this way, she must be trained specially and seriously. But no one would be trained like this except the princesses?As noble as Meng’s Family, an Earl family, his three sisters were taught about etiquette by mammies from the Imperial Palace. They had been taught not to grin and not to show feet in walking since their childhood. But none of them could obey the rules in daily life. After all, everyone was relaxed in their own family. They could laugh and run casually.
Geng Bingxiu was shocked and angry, and said coldly, “You little girl! It’s impossible to put me down with your simple tricks. As a knight, I have been in Jianghu for many years, and I’m more experienced and sophisticated than you. The people killed by me are more than the meals you had.”He Danggui was surprised. She counted with her fingers and said, “Aha, I have two meals a day. That’s to say, I have 600 meals a year. In seven years, I have more than 4,000 meals in total. Uncle, have you killed more than 4,000 people? Oh my!”“It is nothing to kill 4,000 people.” Geng Bingxiu couldn’t help sneering, “You are too bad in arithmetic. There are more than 700 meals a year if you have two meals a day... Hey, why do you have only two meals a day? Why do you only count the amount of meals for seven years? Are you only seven years old?” Was Duan Xiaolou crazy to marry a seven-year-old girl?“No, no, no. I’m ten years old. I was a sucking child before
Dong's where to stand others like this out of words to teach, coupled with her to He Danggui has always been cynical and hateful, over the years everywhere to see the wrong, and now these emotions all of a sudden flared up.She laughed coldly, "Humph! Third girl, you don't have to be like this with me, I can't compare to you in this life, but our old Luo family still has a promising offspring, a Chai Yutu, into the Prince's residence as a beauty; Qiong Sister and Peony Sister, into the palace to serve the Emperor! The day they gain favor, we'll immediately become the royal relatives with hardened waists! Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, you don't want to tear down the bridge too soon!"He Danggui commanded the grannies to bring down both Luo Baiqian and Yan Sister, and she had no intention of staying any longer, biting each other with mad dogs, so what had she become herself.Dong was not willing to let people go, crossed her arms and
Dong raised her hand and waved it heavily on Luo Baiying's face, arrogantly sneering, "Big girl, don't say all these salty words, the feelings of us poor women who married bastard men, girls like you who have never seen anything will never understand in their lives. I only hate myself for being blind back then, choosing by the thousands and finally choosing a useless Luo Baiqian, and now I'm being dragged down by you!"Luo Baihe glanced at the unconscious old lady, hidden anger to teach Dong, "Sister-in-law said what even the words, as the saying goes, flowers do not have a hundred days of red, no one's family has not been rich for a hundred years of good things, out of bad things, we think about it. You don't like anyone, and beating up one person after another won't help."The government office wanted to check the accounts of the Luodong Mansion, to see if they had drawn down money during the war to subsidize the rebels, so all the daughters-in-law in charge, along wit
Park Yang Bai expected a little good, when he pretended Li Xianxi around the screen, appeared in the crowd's field of vision, the outside of an exclamation of surprise intertwined, almost toppled the roof. When the screen was removed, no one had noticed that the ugly girl who had previously walked into the screen to play for the "Wonderful Medical Fairy" had disappeared.Li Xianxi has been dead for ten days, hard as a rock, suddenly recovered soft and charming, really shocked everyone present. Princess House's four housekeepers immediately left two, looks like it is to report to go."Pop!"Mao Daoxing glares and shoots the shocking wood, shouting and asking, "Qingning County Lord, how did you save Xianqiao County Lord, how was the truth on that day, still don't tell from the speed! Just now you also said that the only person who died was Niu Wenlan, and there were two other maids from the royal family, but what is the reason for this?"A dead royal maid? How
Early in the morning four days later, He Danggui and Meng Xuan returned to the capital and went directly to Yingtian Mansion to watch the results of the Yan Wangfu murder case. I heard that the trial of the Luo Mansion's treason case also started today, with one trial after another.On that night in Yan Wang Fu, Zhu Duran and Pao Yangbai pretended to be fake He Danggui, and both of them were imprisoned in the Da Lisi. Meng Xuan makes arrangements through his connections to ensure that Bo Yang Bai has the benefits of eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling in prison, but due to his disguise, he is sadly unsuccessful in the end.As soon as Meng Xuan showed up in the capital, the subordinate who had been secretly protecting the safety of Park Yangbai came to report that in the past few days, he had driven away a total of five waves of assassins who wanted to assassinate Park Yangbai.Just this morning, through the heavy inspection of the meal to the cell, obviously ha
Her mind was feverish, and she remembered in a trance that at some point, Meng Xuan had said to her in the bamboo forest of Cheng Xu, "I'm not Duan Xiaolou, and I'm not going to do the stupid things he did, girl, there's only one Duan Xiaolou in the world, and since there's no room for redemption between you and him anymore, you should always look away in the future."It turned out that what Meng Xuan said was true, and what Gao Jie said was also true, neither of them had lied to her. In this world, there really was only one fool like Duan Xiaolou.This fool had somehow fallen in love with a little demoness like her and hadn't changed his mind until now. Instead, she had married Meng Xuan as her wife.Is there anyone who can tell her how to return a love that is so heavy that she can't breathe, how to clear the past years and let everything return to zero? Her smart brain is no longer smart enough to face Duan Xiaolou directly."Now, you know everything." The
He Danggui woke up with a start, close at hand was Duan Xiaolou's handsome face, a pair of dark eyes, as if he had been staring at her for more than ten hours. She was dizzy, as if she had also slept for more than ten hours.She sat up with a jolt, checking to find that her clothing was intact, only a layer of outer clothing had been removed, and other than that there was nothing wrong.Her nervous expression pierced Duan Xiaolou's eyes, and he laughed silently as he gently asked, "What did you think I would do? Could it be that in your mind, I don't even have this much credibility anymore?" The voice was filled with bitterness.Ignoring Duan Xiaolou, she jumped out of bed and walked around the room, noticing that the bedroom had a single furnishing with a dark tone, much like someone's style. Looking back at the wall, there were five colorful faces hanging, and the one in the very middle had a yellow face, eh? That one is not ...He Danggui exclaimed out in
The testimony of her own sister! Exposing her lies!Everyone gazed at Zhu Duran, her pretty face reddened for a while, white for a while, making it even more suspicious. At this time, the conversation between the two Peng Shih Peng Jian brothers drew the attention of many people."Brother, didn't you also go to the east wing after you finished talking with third sister in the garden?" Peng Jian spoke without thinking and actually drew fire on his own brother.Peng Shi frowned for a moment before replying, "I received a post that said 'important matters to discuss, please be sure to make a trip over here, chee chee chee', and it was addressed to Niu Wenlan. I considered it over and over again, so I went on this trip." After he finished his words, the fake He Danggui, the real Park Yangbai's face was immediately a little agitated, because he also received a similar post before he went to Niu Wenlan's room.Peng Jian said with a start, "Could the murderer be you
"Who?" He Angelica asked a little nervously through the door."You haven't gone over yet?" It was Gao Jie's voice, "I have a question for you.""Go ahead." He Danggui held his breath."That mask, do you still have it?" Gao Jie asked without a clue through a door.He Danggui revealed a confused expression, and Meng Xuan asked for her, "What mask.""Rabbit Town, your gift to me."Gao Jie's style was always simple and concise, but all of a sudden, Meng Xuan was greatly offended. Meng Xuan grabbed He Danggui's pink cheeks with her hand and complained, ''You sent him a gift? Why don't you send me? I want the mask too."He Danggui pushed away this questionable child, Meng Xuan, and pondered for a while before she had an impression of Gao Jie's words. At that time in Rabbit Town, she might seem to have probably given Gao Jie four face masks, the extremely simple kind of hand-painted ceramic paper face masks.In fact, it is not really a gift,
The crowd turned their heads in unison and saw behind a clump of longleaf orchids a man with half his face left in the shadows."Meng Xuan?" He Danggui was taken aback and rushed forward, pulling him aside as he quietly asked, "Why did you run here? Does your father know about your return to the capital?"The visitor was dressed in plain robes, very conspicuous in the dark night, yet no one realized that he was also in the garden until the moment he appeared. He had sword brows and starry eyes, handsome and incomparable, and was none other than Meng Xuan, who should have been huffing and puffing inside the secret room.When He Danggui thought that the scene of Duan Xiaolou hugging her just now had also fallen into Meng Xuan's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a sense of emptiness, and also remembered that Meng Xuan had returned to the capital specifically to see her, and that if the iron-faced Marquis of Bao Ding found out that he'd gone AWOL, she didn't know how he
