The last time Si Ning met Duke Zhen Guo at the door, he was blaming Si Ning for wasting money. Fortunately, Lu Hanxiao came to the rescue and the incident was over.
It took at least half a year from the time the original owner got married to when Si Ning wore this body.
Except for that one time, no one came to the Zhenguo Palace, but someone came to the door today. Sining was very surprised.
She and Lu Hanxiao looked at each other, and Lu Hanxiao put the soup aside, tucked the quilt for her and walked out.
Standing next to the maid outside the door was a young girl, tall and tall, with a bun and a beaded green comb on her head.
When she took a step forward to salute Lu Hanxiao, the large group of hibiscus flowers at the hem of her skirt spread out with her movements, which was very beautiful.
Lu Hanxiao noticed her dress.
It was difficult for him to pay attention to what a stranger was wearing, but the dress was really stunning.
The girl opposite narrowed her eyes slightly, and her voice was as pleasant as a breeze.
"My maid, Si Wan, would like to send my regards to General Lu."
Si Wan, the daughter-in-law of the Zhenguo Palace, Si Ning's half-sister, was a well-known talented woman in the capital.
If you want to say that Lu Qingling is smart, cute and knowledgeable, then this one has an extraordinary temperament and a wealth of knowledge.
Once upon a time, in the most famous academy, women disguised themselves as men to recite poems and compose poems to discuss the past and present with the students. They are still praised by those students to this day.
When everyone mentions the Zhenguo Palace, they will mention the eldest lady of the Si family, followed by Si Ning.
The reason why Si Ning is as famous as Si Wan is simply because she is married to Lu Hanxiao.
Everyone always likes to compare the two, and there are many rumors. They speculate that if Lu Hanxiao had not been hit by the arrow and the emperor had proposed the marriage, the marriage would have fallen to Si Wan.
Si Wan had also heard these words, and she thought of the figure she had glimpsed on the balcony that day. It was true that this engagement should be hers.
Si Wan suppressed the throbbing in her heart and half-bent her body. Seeing that the person above her made no movement, she slightly raised her eyes and looked over, and saw that the person opposite had been staring at the hem of her skirt.
Si Wan knew that she had worn the right clothes today. Without waiting for Lu Hanxiao to say anything, she stood up slowly, and the hem of her skirt also contracted with her movements.
"General Lu likes peonies very much. My daughter also likes them too."
Hearing the voice, Lu Hanxiao hummed slightly, without saying anything. He glanced at Si Wan and asked.
"What's your business?"
Si Wan didn't mind at all about his cold tone and helped him respectfully before replying.
"My father heard that my sister had a miscarriage and was worried about her, so he sent me to see my sister. Is my sister in there?"
Lu Hanxiao looked sideways at the door behind him and replied calmly, "She fell asleep."
Si Wan was stunned and smiled awkwardly.
"It's okay. I'll go in and wait for a while. My sister will probably wake up soon."
"Does your government have such rules?"
Si Wan looked at Lu Hanxiao in confusion, "What does General Lu mean?"
"It's okay to come to the door without sending a greeting card. I was told that the master had gone to bed, but she insisted on going in to disturb her. Can the Duke's wife really know how to teach her children?"
Si Wan's smile froze, and he stood there with an embarrassed look on his face, at a loss.
Lu Hanxiao didn't even look at her, he just thought that he hadn't finished the soup just now.
Too lazy to talk nonsense with her, he called the maid aside to see Si Wan off.
Everyone had ordered them to be kicked out, and even if Si Wan had a thick skin, he couldn't stay in the eyes of others.
In the past, the Ning'an Marquis Mansion looked down upon Si Ning.
What kind of trouble could a concubine who was suppressed everywhere marry a living dead person create?
But things are unpredictable, and Lu Hanxiao wakes up. Si Ning, the third young lady of the Lu family, is no longer just a decoration. With the things she has done these few times, her status has increased, and now it is not that easy to see her.
How Si Wan entered the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion with great fanfare, now he left the mansion in despair.
Just when he was at the door, he was stopped in his tracks.
…
Lu Hanxiao returned to the house and saw Si Ning leaning on the bed reading a book.
His eyes glanced at the empty soup bowl on the table, and a hint of unwillingness flashed across his face. It only passed for a moment before he heard Si Ning ask.
"Dismissed?"
What the two of them said outside just now reached Sining's ears without missing a word.
She had never met this sister-in-law, but she remembered that she was not easy to get along with. She was a virtuous and virtuous person in front of outsiders, but she often bullied the original owner. This sister-in-law had half of the credit for the original owner's miserable life in the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.
Lu Hanxiao nodded, pointed at the book in her hand, and said.
"Would you like to finish your meal first and watch it later?"
Si Ning held the book in his hand and looked up. He wanted to say that he had just drank soup and couldn't eat anything, but the maid outside called again through the door.
Lu Hanxiao's face suddenly darkened, he replied coldly, and the little maid walked in.
When she met Lu Hanxiao's cold gaze, the little maid hurriedly lowered her head timidly to report.
"The old lady calls the third master and the third young mistress to have dinner in the courtyard."
"Mother?"
Lu Hanxiao thought he heard wrongly.
Since what happened to Mrs. Li last time, the old lady has stayed in her house every day, eating fast and chanting Buddha. Lu Hanxiao has also acquiesced that the old lady is a dispensable person in this house.
If it wasn't for the sake of the old Marquis, Mrs. Lu probably wouldn't have stayed in the house after all she had done to Si Ning.
Unexpectedly, it stopped for a while and then started to become restless again.
Lu Hanxiao lost all his good temper and only said two words, "I won't go."
The maid was so frightened that she quickly retreated and trotted out to recover, as if a dog was chasing her from behind.
Si Ning looked amused, "Why are you so fierce? This little girl is just passing on a message, look at how scared I am."
Lu Hanxiao turned to look at Si Ning, without any trace of the anger just now, and replied patiently.
"You are not in good health now, and I don't want these people to bother you with trivial matters."
Si Ning, "..."
I’m really addicted to acting!
"It's not good for Lu Hanxiao to get too involved in the drama." Si Ning reminded.
Lu Hanxiao disagreed, "Everything should be taken seriously. To turn false into true, you must first believe it. If you treat it like a child's play, it is a big deal to show one's flaws, and it is a big crime to deceive the emperor."
Si Ning, "..."
Seeing that she had nothing to say, Lu Hanxiao took the book away from her hand and held her wrist with his other hand.
Si Ning frowned subconsciously, "What are you doing?"
Lu Hanxiao, "Let's go eat."
Si Ning, "But didn't you say that I have to lie on the bed and not be able to move?"
Lu Hanxiao, "You have a miscarriage, not paralysis, and you are in a bad mood. As a husband, I, as a husband, accompany you to go out to relax. What's wrong with you?"
"But what if the emperor asks?"
"Then tell the truth. You are suffering from depression. Let the imperial doctor come and take a look at you. Let the eldest princess come and see the good things she has done. Maybe if you two meet, the depression in your heart can be relieved."
Si Ning, "..."
No matter what you say, it makes sense, right? He was the only one to say all the emotional things.
