I wish for a long time

Ye Jiu's mind froze, "Madam? Young Madam? Are you still making trouble??"

A few days ago, Mrs. Lin had already expressed her intention to show her goodwill, and during this time, Ziruyuan was also very calm, and did not make things difficult for Shao'er anymore, so why did she suddenly get into trouble?

Dong Fei nodded hastily, "Madam suddenly came to Zhuyuan today, and I only heard some disputes inside, and then they went to Zhijie Hall. I will secretly report to you, so you should be mentally prepared."

Ye Jiu heard the words and rushed to the Zhijie Hall without stopping, and the chaos in his mind was instantly wiped out by fright.

God knows how Mrs. Lin will embarrass Shao'er!

Besides, Shao'er's honesty doesn't know how to argue with others, maybe something will happen.

Ye Jiu had already imagined a scene of a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting, but when she came to Zhijie Hall, she was a little dazed for a moment.

It was very quiet inside, and it could even be said to be very quiet. If there were not many people standing and sitting in the hall, she would have thought that she had come to the wrong place.

"Jin'er is here."

Ye Jiu followed the voice and saw Mrs. Lin sitting on the chair in the middle, with a solemn expression, not smiling like usual.

Ye Jiu subconsciously swept aside, and his eyes quickly fell on that familiar face.

Qi Shao'an sat on a chair on one side with his eyes slightly downcast, his small face was tense, his complexion was visibly pale, and the color of his lips had also faded a lot.

At this moment, Qi Shao'an raised his head when he heard the movement, and met Ye Jiu's gaze.

Ye Jiu was a little surprised for a moment, those peach blossom eyes shining with starlight were now a little silent, even a little hurt and wronged, and the eye sockets were also red, and his complexion was visibly haggard.

Ye Jiu hurriedly thought about it, but saw that Qi Shaoan's gaze only stayed on her for a moment, then turned his head, and looked at the ground in the hall quietly.

Ye Jiu seemed to be choked by an invisible, she felt distressed and a little angry.

At this point, she still treats herself like this. Did she commit some unforgivable sin?

Ye Jiu didn't say anything, he glanced coldly at the hall, and looked to the side, only to see a big acquaintance sitting opposite Shao'er.

"Qingchi? Why are you here??"

That's right, the guy next to him who was fidgeting and frantically looking at him for help was Xue Yuning.

Xue Yuning tapped Ren on the head, pointed to the hall helplessly, and said, "I don't want to be here either, you should ask her."

Only then did Ye Jiu realize that there was still a person kneeling under the hall, she frowned and walked forward, her brows twitched suddenly:

"Lianqing?"

……

Not long after Ye Jiu was summoned away by the eunuch in the early morning, Xue Yuning came to the Hou Mansion.

Xue Yuning naturally came to Ye Jiu to discuss the war in Mobei, but he unexpectedly bumped into Qi Shao'an with a haggard face.

Even though she had washed and dressed up, Xue Yuning was really taken aback by the loneliness that was visible to the naked eye and the occasional daze.

"What's the matter, Shao'an, but what happened?"

Qi Shao'an was already holding on to her emotions, she wanted to digest it by herself like this, but unexpectedly Xue Yuning came.

If it is said that Song Chuxun and Ye Jiu are soulmates, but Qi Shaoan and Xue Yuning have a tacit understanding that does not need to be said.

Xue Yuning is extremely smart, no matter from the first meeting in Yiyang Restaurant or afterward, Xue Yuning can understand Qi Shaoan's hesitancy to speak, and similarly, Qi Shaoan also understands Xue Yuning's whirling thoughts.

So facing such a confidant, even if Qi Shaoan didn't say anything, Xue Yuning could guess it.

"Are you having trouble with Boss Ye?"

Qi Shao'an didn't respond, but just lowered his head, looking a little dazed.

Seeing this, Xue Yuning was not afraid of death and asked, "Is it because of the Qionghua Pavilion?"

Seeing that Qi Shaoan was reluctant to say more as usual, she shook her head, scraped off the froth in the teacup, and said lightly:

"In my opinion, Boss Ye is not such a person who doesn't know how to measure, you have to trust her."

Hearing this, Qi Shao'an clenched his fist slightly, then let go, pursing his lips, his eyes felt moist.

She believed in Ajiu, but she didn't believe in herself.

People are changing. If you love something now, it may take a few days, a few months, or three to five years.

Ajiu is like this now, how dare he pat his chest and say, Ajiu only likes himself?

And it was this uneasiness that spread bloody in front of her following the quarrel that day, and she had to face it.

Xue Yuning glanced at Qi Shaoan's crying face, patted her arm, and said:

"Shao'an, you can take a closer look at yourself."

Qi Shaoan was slightly startled, then raised his head to look at Xue Yuning.

Seeing this, Xue Yuning chuckled, "All those talented and Confucian scholars who were killed at the tea poetry meeting that day, and the snow-white and red plums on the Yanjin River, dancing all over the place, I remember it very clearly. "

Qi Shaoan blinked lightly, looking at Xue Yuning's smiling face, her heart was touched a little.

Take a look at yourself more.

"Shao'an is such a beautiful woman, even if you look at the whole capital, it is very rare. How could Boss Ye change his mind so easily?"

Seeing Qi Shaoan's confused eyes, Xue Yuning felt a little distressed.

Qi Shaoan is top-notch in terms of literary talent and insight, as well as her dancing skills and appearance, let alone Yuncheng, even if she has been in the capital for so long, it is rare to see any boudoir woman who can match her.

Of course, except for Song Chuxun.

However, such a dazzling woman, for some reason, hides her clumsiness, and even makes herself a little... low self-esteem.

Yes, that is inferiority complex.

No matter how straight her waist is and how calm her face is, it can't conceal the trace of loneliness in her eyes from time to time.

She didn't know what happened to Qi Shao'an, she just felt that there was always darkness in her eyes, complete darkness.

It seems that it is a deep well, no matter how bright the surrounding area is, it cannot illuminate the depth of the well.

Xue Yuning sighed slightly, and she could only hope that Boss Ye could slowly warm up this extremely guarded woman and let her let go of those shackles as soon as possible.

Qi Shaoan pursed her lips and frowned slightly.

She understood the unspoken meaning in Xue Yuning's words, but it was so difficult to do it.

"I don't know, but my daughter-in-law has such a close relationship with Mr. Xue, and they have a great time talking in the room during the day and night."

Suddenly a voice came from the door, and Mrs. Lin strode in, and happened to see Xue Yuning hastily withdrawing her hand.

Qi Shao'an looked at Mrs. Lin's angry look, and thought about the current situation of the two of them, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

When Mrs. Lin saw this situation, coupled with Qi Shaoan's red and swollen eye sockets, her face turned green all of a sudden.

She narrowed her eyes, her eyes were full of anger: "I didn't believe it just now, but now you slapped me hard."

Qi Shao'an got up quickly, nodded and said: "Mother, you have misunderstood my daughter-in-law, Mr. Xue and I are old friends, just now..."

"That's enough, why not just now? Could it be that I'm getting old and blind!"

Qi Shaoan bit her lip, she couldn't help feeling a little regretful in her heart, just now she was so sad that she forgot Xue Yuning's identity outside.

Mrs. Lin looked around and saw that there was no servant, and her face was even more livid. She tried to keep her voice steady, and said coldly:

"Mr. Xue will come with the old man first. After my son comes, let's talk about it."

Xue Yuning let out a long sigh, exchanged glances with Qi Shaoan, and had no choice but to follow Madam Lin.

Before Madam Lin left the door, she gave another order: "Lian Qing, take good care of Young Madam."

Lian Qing came out from behind the door, and bowed slowly: "Yes."

……

Lian Qing timidly knelt on the ground, and when she heard Ye Jiu calling her, she raised her head and called out softly: "Master..."

Seeing her tearful eyes, Ye Jiu couldn't help shivering.

Is this style popular these days? You always have tears in your eyes and affectionate style. What are you doing, are you fishing for turtles?

She curled her lips quietly, but saw that the right half of Lian Qing's face was severely swollen, as if she had been beaten.

Ye Jiu subconsciously moved his cheeks, only to feel that his face was in pain.

"Lianqing, you boldly said today that with my backing, no one would dare to do anything to you."

Mrs. Lin snorted coldly, motioning Lian Qing to speak.

Lian Qing shrunk her neck, and whispered in a crying voice: "I followed Madam's order to look at Young Madam today, but Young Madam insisted that I was a hindrance, so she shot... hit me..."

Lian Qing sobbed as she spoke, feeling very aggrieved when she heard it.

Ye Jiu plucked her ears, feeling that she might have an auditory hallucination, she asked again, "Young Madam... hit... you?"

A huge question mark popped out of her head, and she looked at Qi Shao'an blankly, only to see that the girl turned her head away and didn't even give her a look.

She thought it was because of the pouch, so she said doubtfully, "It's not like that."

Although Shao'er looks cooler, she is a soft girl in her heart. She can't do this kind of thing like slapping others.

But Qi Shao'an raised his head in an instant, and looked at Ye Jiu in disbelief, with a bit of sadness in his eyes.

Although these words did not agree with what Lian Qing said, the tone of voice clearly showed doubts in his heart.

Thinking of this, Qi Shaoan slowly grabbed the hem of the skirt.

On the other hand, Lianqing nodded cautiously, and wiped away her tears, "Young madam is angry in her heart, and it is right to take it out on your servant, and your servant has no complaints."

Mrs. Lin snorted heavily when she heard the words, "You are obedient in front of me, but when I leave, it's just like this, hum."

Qi Shao'an was sitting beside him, and when he heard this, his fingers tightened again, but he didn't say a word.

Ye Jiu showed displeasure, and interrupted Mrs. Lin, "Wait, let me ask the reason first."

"Why does Lianqing look at my wife?"

Mrs. Lin glanced at Qi Shao'an, and said in a deep voice: "The blue sky is flirting with outsiders, shouldn't I let people watch her?"

Ye Jiu was dumbfounded, "Outlaw?"

She pointed to Xue Yuning next to her: "Her?"

Lian Qing nodded, "Young Madam was having a secret meeting with Young Master Xue, oh no, Madam bumped into me while talking, Madam ordered me to watch Young Madam."

Ye Jiu was almost overjoyed when she heard this, she looked at Xue Yuning, raised her eyebrows lightly, Xue Yuning helplessly shrugged her shoulders when she saw this.

Ye Jiu shook her head amusedly, she looked at Lian Qing who was sobbing on the ground, bent down and reached out to help her up.

Although Qi Shao'an ignored Ye Jiu, she kept watching her every move from the corner of her eye, but at this time Ye Jiu actually went to care about Lian Qing, she felt very uncomfortable.

She pursed her mouth, and the tip of her nose was a little sore.

But Lian Qing was overwhelmed by flattery, and her tears fell like beads again. Just as she was about to call out "Young Master", she saw the slightly smiling Young Master in front of her and said softly:

"Get up and rest, acting is really tiring."
