Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

The rain is cool, and the ice that falls on the neck is bone-deep.

The finest blue and white porcelain is placed on black velvet cloth, covered with a bulletproof glass cover, and then focused with light. It is unparalleled and noble in the world - this is what Shangguan Chu should have. If I can't give him such dignity, am I still going to cruelly bring him back to my rough shack to live in the same room with a pile of mess?

Since it is a pearl and jade, it should not be covered with dust.

Some thoughts have been there before, but they are not clear and have not yet reached enthusiasm. They are like a gust of wind blowing and the water surface is rippled, but they can still return to calm... This is good. If it were any stronger, it would be a serious injury...

Shen Luoxin squatted there for a long time, until the soles of her feet were numb, then she stood up slowly holding on to the courtyard wall. The soles of her feet were tingling and numb. She stood there to relax for a while, watching Zi Qiuchong walking this way from a distance. After coming, he turned towards the other end and left. At this moment, she didn't want to see anyone, and she couldn't even meet anyone, let alone exchange greetings.

I once thought that there were just ripples on the water, and suddenly the wind stopped and the water was still. Only when someone suddenly mentioned it, I felt empty and tired in my heart, as if I had lost something. In his previous life, he was a forensic doctor. When he was about the same age, he had participated in several blind dates at the request of his parents. He had also met young talents with good looks, but he had never felt the excitement that he felt when they met each other at first sight, and certainly not the ones that followed. Intersected.

Therefore, I have never known that things like feelings are really without warning and unreasonable. They cannot be explained clearly, and their existence in my heart is not strong. I just think of it occasionally when I am alone, and it is not so boring. taste. The so-called "urgent matter" naturally did not exist. It was just an excuse for her to escape from the topic. Shen Luoxin returned to her yard, not caring about her clothes that were soaked by the drizzle, and sat on the porch for a while. She was in a daze until the maid came back from outside and greeted her with a smile, "Where is the girl? Master Jifeng came here before. He said that he went out to buy some food today. When he saw that the girl was not there, he left it inside. Did the girl see it? ?”

Shen Luoxin shook her head. She didn't even enter the house after she came back, so naturally she didn't see anything to eat.

It was obvious that she looked languid and a little weak.

The maid was stunned for a moment, and then her smile stopped. Then she realized that Shen Luoxin's hair was wet and covering her head. If she looked closely, her clothes were also wet. She was shocked and asked, "Miss, what's wrong? It rained outside just now. Although it didn’t rain heavily today, you can’t get wet in this weather. The cold wind blows and it’s going to be cold... Go in and wipe it off quickly, and I’ll make some ginger soup!"

However, Shen Luoxin shook his head and said no thanks while saying, "You should go do other things first. I have nothing to do, so I will just sit down for a while."

The little maid did her duty conscientiously. Although Shen Luoxin was not the serious mistress of the Ji family, everyone knew that she was the girl's best friend, and the old lady liked her very much. Even if she was not the mistress, she was still a distinguished guest, and she could not be neglected. So he still persisted in persuading, "Girl..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Luoxin looked up and ordered, "Step back."

The palm-sized face looked as if it had been stained by rain and had a coldness to it. The maid's heart shuddered and she withdrew in silence.

At lunch time, when the maid brought the food over, she found that the door of Miss Shen's room was closed, so she went up and knocked softly. A sleepy voice came from inside, and just told her to leave it aside until she could sleep for a while. After getting up to eat, the maid placed the food on the small table in the corridor. About an hour later, the maid came over again and saw that the food at the door was gone, but the door was still closed. She probably took it in to eat and then went to sleep, so she did not disturb Shen Luoxin again.

Ning Guo Gong's wife came right after breakfast. She came to visit her for the first time and brought many greeting gifts. She also mentioned that Ning Guo Gong also wanted to go with her, but she gave up because she was afraid of being rude.

After the two exchanged greetings, they sat down and served tea. The Duke's wife asked about Ji Wuyan. The little girl had been busy all night last night. The old lady didn't know if she got up now, so she asked Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang." Grandma wanted to let Ji Wuyan sleep a little longer, so she just said it was unfortunate that the girl was called out early in the morning.

It's okay for the Duke's wife to smooth things over with a smile and say that it's okay that these juniors are not here, or that they, the old people, sit together and talk.

There is obviously a difference in seniority, but the age difference is not that big. If it is normal, it is okay to be sisters. But at this moment, the two of them have a tacit understanding. You call me "grandmother" and I call you "ma'am". It didn't take long for them to start admiring each other. When the maid came secretly to report that the girl had woken up, Grandma Wang smiled and reported that "the girl has come back from outside" and asked if she wanted to be called over.

But the Duke's wife said no, she just said that she came to visit her grandmother today, and it was very restrictive for the children to come and not like the topic of their elders and not to go away. So he just asked about Ji Wuyan's current situation and was relieved to hear that everything was fine. He also mentioned some things about Ning Xiuyuan, mostly about how this boy in his family can't take care of others, how he is not enlightened, and how he will have to deal with more in the future. For those who don't know, he thought that the third master of the Ning family was about to join his wife's family. Similar.

Because of Shangguan Yuan's incident, Mrs. Ji actually has no good impression of the powerful people in Yanjing City. If not for this, she would not have targeted Ning Xiuyuan in the past. Now that she sees the Duke's wife coming to the door in person, she has never acted in a manner that expresses the dignity of the country. The father-in-law's arrogance, but she thought about everything for her girl, which changed a lot for a while.

The Duke's wife stayed for lunch and drank a cup of tea before she took the nanny beside her and stood up to say goodbye. She originally wanted to see Ji Wuyan before leaving, but was told that Ji Wuyan was not at the house, so she I can only give up.

Although Ji Wuyan had mentioned before that it was the Duke's wife who handed the post, but because he didn't know the specific time, he received Li Yiwei's invitation, packed up and went out.

Grandma Wang was impatient. When she heard that Ji Wuyan had gone out, she ignored the presence of the Duke and his wife and asked quickly, "Why did the girl go out? Who was with her when she went out? Can Miss Shen follow her?" "

The question was asked urgently, and he almost blurted it out. By the time he realized it, the Duke's wife had already noticed the abnormality, frowned and asked in concern, "What's wrong with Wu Yan?"

"No...it's nothing." Grandma Wang gritted her teeth and wanted to slap herself for not being able to hide the matter. She racked her brains and finally came up with a reason, "I heard from Miss Shen that the shopkeepers of the drug stores outside are here now. The two little girls are worried about the crazy price increase. The old slave is worried that one person in the girl's family is weak, so he asked this question." As he said this, he glanced at the concierge.

The boy understood the situation and said with a smile, "The two girls are together. Don't worry, mama."
