In troubled times, the daughter-in-law returns

Chapter 18 Falling Rain
The weather outside did not know when it changed, the weather was fine, but it started to rain, the gloomy sky was just like Lan Kexin's mood at this time.

She raised her head, her face was instantly wet, and she didn't know whether it was tears or rain that meandered on her cheeks.

Of course, the housekeeper of Jinxiudui couldn't let her go back in the rain like this. If she got sick because of it, I'm afraid the young city lord would tear his bones apart!
So the butler quickly found two more umbrellas, stopped Qiongzhi and Ruizhi, and gave them the umbrellas.

Qiong Zhi walked a few steps quickly with her skirt in hand, put the umbrella in her hand on top of Lan Kexin's head, and comforted her softly: "Girl, don't be sad, it's not worth it..."

"Yes," Rui Zhi also rushed over, holding her other arm, "Girl, you are the best in our eyes! No matter how beautiful and special that woman is, she will never be on the stage. "

Lan Kexin smiled wryly, as if she had exhausted all her strength, she said weakly, "Let's go back, from now on..."

She turned her head and took a look at the brocade piles of gold and jade, under the gloomy eyes there was an incomprehensible light, and when she turned her head again, her eyes were filled with sadness.

Xu Shi was in a bad mood, and it was raining again. After returning to the Cardamom Courtyard, Lan Kexin started to have a high fever.

Although Si Kongye didn't go back in person, he sent someone to find the best doctor in Yecheng to see Lan Kexin.

Of course, Sikong Ye couldn't hide what happened in Jinxiudui. When he heard about this, he found Mu Xue more interesting. He had seen many beautiful women, and he also knew many smart women, but as smart as Mu Xue It is really rare to see a woman who is beautiful and acts so neatly.

That night, he didn't go to see the sick Lan Kexin, but came to find Mu Xue.

Mu Xue didn't understand him when she first saw him, but the news she got was that Sikong Ye attached great importance to Lan Kexin, why did Xiaojiaoniang get sick from her anger, and he still looked indifferent?

Of course she could see that Sikong Ye's expression was indifferent, his eyes were relaxed, and he was not at all looking like asking a teacher for a crime.

Could it be that the news is wrong?

Looking at Mu Xue's probing eyes, Sikong Ye blurted out, "The relationship between me and Lan Kexin is not what the outside world says."

After he finished speaking, he felt a little annoyed. It's all right, why did he tell this woman these things?Seriously, they don't know each other well.

Mu Xue also thought it was a little funny, in fact she really laughed, "Young City Master, I don't care about your private life, I just want to know when we can go to Xiangyang Hou's Mansion?"

He already liked her being straightforward like this, but when she really went straight like this, he felt uncomfortable again. Sikong Ye didn't know how his contradictory thoughts came about, so he shook his head slightly, and put all these messy things together. Shaking the thought away, he said softly, "I can take you there tomorrow. Someone will send you the right clothes later. I will buy you half an hour." As for whether you are enough, it is not up to me. It's within the scope of consideration.

Mu Xue secretly thought about it. Although half an hour is not considered long, if she really wants to do something, it is enough. Besides, she didn't intend to do something in one go. She just needs to make sure that every time she goes It is enough for the Xiangyang Hou Mansion to gain something.

After reaching an agreement, Mu Xue felt that she had nothing to say to Sikong Ye, so she pretended that he didn't exist, and picked up the travel notes she had read during the day and read them with relish.

The city lord Sikong Shao who grew up in the eyes of all the people was nakedly ignored like this.

If it was in the past, Sikong Ye would definitely not have taken it to heart, but for some reason, today he just feels uncomfortable.He walked over, sat down next to Mu Xue, and looked over with his head. After only a few lines, he couldn't help but sneered and said, "Looking at these, it's like a blind man touching an elephant."

Scholars have a good saying, "What you get on paper is always superficial, and you never know that you have to do it yourself." Travel notes are just some thoughts written by some literati after they have traveled to certain places. There are inevitably some exaggerations and distortions when writing, so if you really want to visit a certain place and go according to the travel notes, I'm afraid it will be a big joke.

Seeing Sikong Ye's expression, Mu Xue figured it all out, and her face couldn't help feeling a little hot, and she also knew that she was taking it for granted this time.

Back then, when she was in Xiliang Kingdom, Huo Liangzhi would have someone prepare the most detailed map for her every time she went on an assassination mission. Everywhere was marked very clearly. With such a map, even if she had never Whenever she closes her eyes, she will have an accurate and real image in her mind.This increased the success rate of her assassination mission to a certain extent.

Therefore, she was able to stand out among the many killers in the city of death, half of which was due to her own strength, and the other half was due to Huo Liangzhi's protection.

Thinking of Huo Liangzhi, she couldn't help but feel a little headache.

It's not that she doesn't understand what Huo Liangzhi means to her, but she can't respond.Huo Liangzhi is too paranoid and domineering. If she responds, he will try his best to keep her by his side. That's not the life she wants.

So she tried her best to help Huo Liangzhi eradicate dissidents all these years, in order not to owe him too much.

But what is owed is ultimately owed, and it cannot be repaid in this life, so it can only be left in the next life.

Sikong Ye's two straight eyebrows gradually gathered between his brows. Although Mu Xue didn't speak, he could feel that her thoughts were not here!This makes him very unhappy!
The chill emanating from the man beside her brought Mu Xue's thoughts back quickly. She chuckled a few times, concealed her embarrassment, and threw the book in her hand casually, "It's getting late, I'm going to rest, young city lord, please go back."

Sikong Ye's face darkened, "Are you driving me away?"

"Huh?" Mu Xue asked strangely, "Did I say something wrong? It's the hour, doesn't it mean that the young city lord doesn't need to rest? Or..." She gently raised her arm and put it on Sikong Ye's shoulder. As soon as he raised his hand, his clothes slipped down, revealing a large section of snow-white lotus root arms. He stretched his gooseneck and gently blew into Sikong Ye's ear, "Young City Master, can't wait to be popular with me?"

On the night of late spring, the evening breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of fragrance of flowers, and it seems that even the air is filled with ambiguous feelings.

Sikong Ye's eyes darkened, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and his voice was low and charming: "That's exactly what I meant."

Alarm bells rang in Mu Xue's heart, she knew she had played too much, and she hurried to get away, but it was too late, the man beside her stood up, picked her up horizontally, moved her fingers deftly, and touched her soft numb acupoint by the way !
