Hello Chang’an

Chapter 41 The Tiger Falls in Pingyang (Third update)

"Are you copying Buddhist scriptures for your grandmother?" Yao Xia grinned and lowered her voice: "Why don't you call me to join you? Grandma will be angry with me..."

Yao Ran twitched the corners of his lips slightly: "Grandma can't bear to be angry with you. She has always liked you the most."

"No way, my grandmother often said that I am just like a skinny monkey. I am not at all as knowledgeable, sensible, calm and dignified as my cousin. She always asks me to learn more from my cousin."

Mentioning this, Yao Xia smiled sheepishly, and then introduced happily: "By the way, cousin, this is the sister from General Chang's house. Today, Sister Chang and I hit it off like old friends. It's too late to meet each other!"

The little **** the side wanted to roll her eyes again.

The last time I heard Yao Er say this was the last time.

Yao Er and every beautiful lady hit it off immediately and they are the best in the world.

If anyone really believes her lies, they will lose.

For example, the wife of the Wei family of Duke Zheng's mansion...

Not far away, Wei Miaoqing looked at Yao Xia, who had only been clinging to her a few days ago, but now she wished that her whole body was focused on Chang Suining's worthless look, and she was so angry that her head was almost smoking.

Chang Suining's attention was now focused on Yao Ran in front of him without any trace.

The only daughter of Yao Tingwei, something seemed wrong from the moment she heard Yao Xia explain her identity and learned her surname was Chang.

But in just a moment, the strangeness was covered up.

"It turns out that this is the wife of General Chang's house..." Yao Ran smiled and said, "I have heard about it for a long time. When I saw her today, I realized that the rumors were true."

Chang Sui Ning also smiled slightly: "I have also heard of Lady Yao's reputation. Your Majesty, Yao Tingwei, was born as a Jinshi, and Lady Yao's mother-in-law is the Pei family of Hedong. With such a family inheritance, Lady Yao also has the aroma of books. It’s really enviable.”

Yao Ran clenched the silk handkerchief slightly.

Envy?

Is Chang Sui Ning envious of her?

Yao Ran suppressed the strange feeling in his heart: "Ms. Chang is so complimentary."

At this time Yao Xia said: "Mrs. Zheng Guogong and the eldest aunt are here!"

Great aunt—

That is Pei Min's eldest daughter.

Chang Sui Ning looked towards the row of ladies who were all dressed in extraordinary manners.

Yao Ran also took a look, and then quickly said to Yao Xia: "By the way, I heard that there are peonies planted all over the garden in the west, which are really beautiful. Why don't you, second sister, take Mrs. Chang over to have a look?"

"Okay." Yao Xia nodded with a smile: "This is the first time Sister Chang has come back. Today I will lead the way for Sister Chang."

After saying that, he looked at Yao Ran and said, "Cousin, won't you go there with us?"

"I..." Yao Ran was about to speak when he heard a woman's voice calling.

"Ran'er, come here."

A woman beside Mrs. Zheng Guogong waved to her gently.

"Mother called me... I'll go over first, and I'll go to the peony garden to find you later." Yao Ran said hastily in a low voice, and then stepped forward.

He repeatedly mentioned asking Yao Xia to take her to the Peony Garden—does this mean... that he wants to drive her away?

Chang Suining looked at Yao Ran's back with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Girl, do you want to go and have a word with the eldest lady?" the female envoy beside Yao Xia asked softly.

If the girl doesn't bow and speak, the lady will definitely feel that the girl is disrespectful.

"Forget it, the eldest aunt only called my cousin. If I come forward without permission, she might think that I want to steal my sister's limelight in front of Mrs. Zheng Guogong." Yao Xia turned away and vomited secretly. His tongue was small and his voice was small: "Auntie doesn't look down on me anyway, so I'd better not bother with it."

Her eldest aunt was born in the Pei family, and she was the eldest daughter of the serious Pei family. From the bottom of her heart, she looked down on her and her aunt's level of background.

Chang Sui Ning vaguely heard something, then looked at the lady Pei.

Yao Xia was about to go to the peony garden when he suddenly heard a voice: "Yao Er, come here." Yao Xia looked and saw Wei Miaoqing standing not far away, with an expression that seemed a bit intolerable.

Yao Xia was so excited that she had to let go of Chang Suining's hand: "Sister Chang, I'll go over first, and we'll go enjoy the peonies later."

Seeing her struggling to carry the water, Chang Sui Ning smiled noncommittally.

"Why, didn't you see me here today?" Wei Miaoqing sounded dissatisfied and stared at the sachet in Yao Xia's hand.

Yao Xia hurriedly put away the sachet, raised her chubby cheeks and smiled in apology: "I saw Sister Wei was busy, so I didn't dare to rush forward to disturb her... We haven't seen her for several days, but Sister Wei has become more and more beautiful!" "

"It's strange that I believe you..."

Over there, Yao Ran was saluting Mrs. Zheng Guogong at the signal of her mother Pei.

Mrs. Duan smiled and praised: "Mrs. Pei has really raised a good girl. She is different from ordinary girls. She is really dignified and generous."

Mrs. Pei smiled lightly: "When it comes to raising children, Mrs. Zheng Guogong is a role model, just like Wei Shilang, who is already a pillar of the court at a young age."

Duan sighed: "I don't have the ability to educate him, but he lectures me non-stop all day long, which gives me a headache."

Several ladies nearby laughed when they heard this.

When Pei heard these inconspicuous words, there was a hint of disgust in his heart.

No rules means no rules.

If it weren't for the fact that Minister Wei was indeed young and promising, and if he could match her Ran'er, he would be a good match, she would not have wanted to take another look at Duan's family.

A group of people walked slowly forward while talking.

Yao Ran followed his mother and frowned quickly when he saw Chang Sui Ning still standing in the same place.

At this moment, Mrs. Duan seemed to have happened to see Chang Sui Ning. She raised her voice slightly and said with a smile: "Ah, is that the Chang family's wife?"

Chang Suining heard this sound, adjusted his expression slightly, and then turned around.

She didn't leave on purpose, hoping to be seen by others, but this obviously did not include Duan Zhenyi.

However, sooner or later, there will be such a knife, and it will be the same whether you extend your head or shrink it.

Changsui Ning only stepped forward and saluted.

Seeing her lowering her head, Duan smiled and said, "Quickly raise your head and tell me to take a look."

Chang Suining: "..."

Duan Zhenyi is somewhat bold...

Although it was not quite appropriate, it felt a bit like a tiger being bullied by a dog. Chang Sui Ning could only raise his head with a smile.

It was also at this time that she really saw Duan's current appearance up close.

This was the first time she saw Duan Zhenyi, who was nearly forty years old - of course, this was nonsense.

Duan was only three years older than her, but now he has surpassed her by so much, suddenly living so many years longer than her.

She was only twenty-three years old when she died, and she only lived for a total of twenty-three years. She had not had time to realize the feeling of the passing of her years. At this moment, she suddenly saw that her old friend was no longer young, and her emotions were really complicated.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the person who had stolen these more than ten years was her or an old friend in her eyes.

"What a beautiful little girl!" Duan exclaimed in admiration.

Following this compliment, Chang Suining was keenly aware of an unfriendly gaze falling on his face.

That sight was hidden among the many sights, with a hint of cold scrutiny.
