Sister Jin blushed and didn't say anything. Baoning saw that the other girls hadn't come yet, and they were the only ones, so he rolled his eyes, changed his strategy, and persuaded her softly: "In a few days, Mrs. Xiong Shoufu My [-]th birthday is going to be a big celebration. I heard that most people in Beijing are going to go, and even people outside Beijing will send their children. If you tell me who it is, we can also help you to see how the young master is doing. If you don't say..."

She prolonged her voice on purpose: "What should I do if I'm a pockmark?"

Sure enough, this trick was still useful, Sister Jin blushed, but she couldn't say anything, she just coyly wrote the word "Wen" on the table with tea, and didn't say much about the rest.

As expected of Deng Baoning, there was no need to guess too much, and he immediately asked, "Wen Lixin?"

Sister Jin suddenly stood up, covered her face with a fan, and went straight out of the court.

Chen Nian smiled and said: "It can be seen that it is right."

Seeing Daiyu's confused face, Deng Baoning immediately explained to her: "The Wen family, like the Fu family, is a family of generals guarding the south. His family's ancestors are stronger than Haiyun, and they are determined to fight against the Japanese."

Daiyu asked, "Then how do you guess which young master it is?"

Deng Baoning smiled triumphantly: "Now the Wen family has only two brothers Wen Lixin and Wen Lishi who are of the right age. Wen Lishi has been raised so badly that he must not be in the eyes of the Zhennan Hou Mansion. Wen Lixin is a young hero, a little He is already a fifth-rank military officer at this age, so naturally..."

She glanced at her and calmed down a lot of Jin sisters who had just come in, and said naughty and drawn out, "The best match for our family..."

Seeing that Sister Jin's face was flushed again, Baoning stopped her in time and didn't say anything more.

Then there were other girls from other families. Baoning wanted to greet those girls, but it was not easy to talk to Sister Jin, but when the banquet was about to end, he gave them a wink and signaled them to come over.

Daiyu understood that at today's banquet, no matter the ladies or the girls, they all stared at her, chatted with her, and peeked at her behavior, which annoyed her so much that she wanted to find an excuse to slip away.

Immediately got up: "I'm going to take a breath."

Sister Jin also "missed" and knocked over a cup of golden jade wine on Chen Nian: "Ah, I'm sorry."

Deng Baoning, who was the host, got up naturally: "I'll take the two sisters to change clothes."

So the four of them gathered in a temporary hut for the women's family to change clothes to discuss, Deng Baoning had a plan in mind, and told them one by one how to be fooled at the birthday banquet.

Daiyu was dumbfounded: "It took only a while, and you came up with an idea?"

Bao Ning complacently said: "Of course, it doesn't matter who I am!"

Chen Nian was worried: "Your method is not good. If something goes wrong, what if someone's reputation is ruined? Let's cancel it."

Bao Ning waved his hand disapprovingly: "I knew I told you, so I can only do it everywhere, this is not good, and that is not appropriate. Could it be that Sister Jin is really married to a pockmark?"

Nowadays, there are many children of rich and noble families. Although they can escape from smallpox by chance, they still cannot escape the fate of pockmarked children. However, big families like to choose such children as their successors. Because of the second smallpox.

Ankang is Ankang, but who wants to marry a pockmarked daughter?Although choosing a husband should not place too much emphasis on his appearance, but no one imagined that his husband was a pockmark when he was pregnant.

Chen Niansi thought about it, frowning in pain, but in the end, her sisterly love for sister Jin overcame everything, she gritted her teeth: "Count me in!"

Bao Ning chuckled: "Don't be so serious, just wait for the day before the birthday party."

It was the first time for Daiyu to participate in such a secret activity among the daughters in her boudoir, and she was both novel and nervous.

When he returned to the mansion, he was somewhat absent-minded when talking about what he had seen and heard today with Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai was quite curious: "Why, is there any wife who is rude to you today?"

Daiyu hurriedly denied it: "No, it's just me..." She hesitated for a long time and couldn't think of a suitable excuse. She had never lied to Lin Ruhai, and now she wanted to hide it from her father, and she felt guilty.

Unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai didn't go into the details, he chuckled and said, "Since I'm fine, I'll go and rest myself."

Daiyu was puzzled, but Lin Ruhai was very happy in her heart, her daughter looked like a child like this.When a girl grows up, she naturally has her own little secrets, and it's interesting to tinker with them. It's better than crying in the wind and seeing the moon, isn't it?

He doesn't want his daughter to look like that at all, it's better to be like this, plant flowers and grass every day, keep some little secrets from his parents, and be as delicate and simple as a daughter in a boudoir.

In a blink of an eye, the day before the birthday banquet came, and Daiyu asked Mr. Bai for leave, saying that she wanted to go to Deng Baoning's house to play.

Mr. Bai knew that Daiyu was a polite child, so he naturally let her go without worry, and insisted on bringing her more guards.

But it was said that Wen Lixin, the eldest son of the Wen family, had finished his errands and rode his horse through the street. He bought a bag of Sutang for the Li family and his mother, and then rushed to Wen's residence.

Naturally, he walked hundreds of times on the way home, and he was very familiar with it, but today he always felt that someone was following him.

Wen Lixin didn't rely on the Wen family's protection to take this position. He was a young hero and had the ability to adapt to changing situations, but he figured out a way to deal with it in a few moments.Immediately stop and go, deliberately stop at this store, and buy something at the entrance of that store.

After some observation, it was a carriage that was following him, and when he walked, the carriage also left, and when he stopped, the carriage also stopped, concealed not far away, and always followed him.

Wen Lixin became suspicious. Although he was a young man, he was only a fifth-rank military officer, and he was not enough to look down on in the capital where the princes were all over the place. How could anyone follow him?

Could it be that something happened in the southeast?

Although the Wen family is an important force, the rules in the court are that all family members stay in the capital, whether they are taken as hostages or as a show of loyalty to the emperor, no one can break this rule.

At that moment, Wen Lixin immediately thought of his father and uncle far away in the southeast vigilantly.

He took the carriage around Beijing in a leisurely manner, and walked a few more steps, Wen Lixin suddenly remembered: No, who follows others in such a blatant way with a carriage?

Now, taking the opportunity of turning a corner, he quietly looked at the carriage. The horses were high-quality horses, and the carriage pedals were inlaid with ebony carvings of five blessings, not to mention that the curtains of the carriage were ten kinds of brocade tributes from the south of the Yangtze River.

Could it be that someone wanted to kidnap him to blackmail his father?

Wen Lixin sneered in his heart: just right, let you see how good I am!

So he deliberately hit the horse and walked to that remote place.Going around east and west until a dilapidated mule and horse market in the west of the city.

The mule and horse market is always traded in the morning, and there are no people at this hour, so it is convenient for him to use his hands and feet.

But he didn't know that the girls in the carriage were muttering, Chen Nianxian said: "Baoning, I didn't find anything after following around here, why don't we go back."

Sister Jin also murmured in her heart: "Seeing that there are fewer and fewer people, let's hurry back to the mansion."

"No!" Sister Jin didn't give up, "It's so easy to follow here, how can I give up halfway."

An Meier was timid, she didn't go to the concubine's flower viewing banquet that day, she just received the post today, so she knew what was going on, and she couldn't help but think of retreating: "This is not in accordance with the rules, if you are caught Your Excellency knows..."

Baoning's eyes rolled: "Maybe the other party is keeping a foreign room here!"

The other sisters were taken aback, and Baoning felt more and more reasonable: "I eavesdropped on my cousins ​​saying that some people kept a concubine, and because they were afraid that the royal censor would participate in the performance, they chose places inaccessible. Maybe Wen Lixin This kid is sneaking around in the outer room!"

When she said this, Sister Jin was taken aback and couldn't say anything to stop her.

The five girls then held their breath and followed each other cautiously. Seeing Wen Lixin riding Juechen, they went into the alley behind the carriage.

Baoning hurriedly said to the driver: "Follow!"

The coachman rode his horse and followed the alley, but suddenly found that the alley was a dead end. The carriage could see everything in the alley. The coachman hurriedly wanted to turn around, but was stopped by a man on horseback: "Where did you come from, the little thief! How dare you look for the Wen family?" trouble!"

It turned out that when Wen Lixin met Wen Li on the way around the circle, he winked at his brother, and the two brothers were used to cooperating, so Wen Lishi quietly huddled behind the carriage.

His contemptuous little thief made Baoning jump out and said, "Who is the little thief? What do you mean by stopping my carriage?"

Oh?

It turned out to be a woman!

When the two brothers saw that there were no thieves alighting from the carriage, but a little lady, they were startled for a moment.

Bao Ning preemptively said: "My carriage went the wrong way, why did you stop it? Tell you, my family is someone you can't afford to offend, let it go quickly."

In fact, she was also very panicked, but thinking of her own will to lead the sisters into this situation, she forced herself to be brave to solve the trouble.

Wen Lishi was a fool, he tilted his head and smiled slantingly, his peach eyes were full of ridicule: "Who's I can't afford? Tell me!"

"You!" Bao Ning was flustered and flustered, he wanted to use the name of the Marquis of Jinxiang to scare the other party, but he didn't dare to make things big.At the moment, it was hard to get off the tiger, so he hesitated there.

When Wen Li saw that domineering little lady, she was so frightened that the clouds and temples under her veil were shaking slightly, but she still stood firm and refused to admit defeat.

It reminded him of a Persian cat he had raised when he was a child, and it was also so aggressive. When he saw him for the first time, he was obviously trembling with fear, but he still held up his courage and walked past him gracefully.

So Wen Lishi couldn't help laughing: "You are a girl, what are you doing with my brother?"

He immediately exposed Baoning's thoughts, and Baoning's ears turned red.
