proud wife and concubine

When Li Yuerong arrived at the Duke's mansion, he talked to Mrs. Guo for a while, and then went to the backyard to look for Xu Cibing.As soon as he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he ran into Xu Cibing who ran out in a hurry, almost bumping into his arms.

"What's the matter, why are you walking in such a hurry." After all, Li Yuerong had the time to get close to him, and one hand firmly supported Xu Cibing who was staggering.

"Hey, what's the matter, I just heard the maid said that my sister came to see me, but after waiting and waiting, no one came, so I wanted to go to the front yard to have a look." Xu Cibing's big eyes were bent into After forming a crescent shape, obviously in a good mood, he affectionately took Li Yuerong's arm and walked into the yard.

"Tsk tsk, this isn't my sister-in-law, but she looks closer than real sisters." Xiao Xueqiong, who was left behind, was a little bit annoyed, and followed the two into the house while slandering her.

As soon as the three of them sat down, they heard a bell ringing. Xiao Xueqiong followed the sound and saw a big snow-white pom-pom running fast, and trembling fat was faintly visible under the thick down.

"Ah, why is this dog so fat?" Xiao Xueqiong immediately recognized this little guy, it was the dog from the Western Regions that His Royal Highness King Qin asked her to hand over to Xu Cibing. Later, Li Yuerong forced Li Ke to give it to Li Ke. Xu only came and gave it to himself.

Xu Cibing bent down and picked up Pangpang, who was wagging his tail, and replied with a sigh: "I don't know why he is getting fatter."

"You must have fed it too much, my Xueyue is not so fat, and she is beautiful." Xiao Xueqiong said proudly.

"Xueyue?" Xu Cibing asked.

"Oh, I also gave Xueqiong one, named Xueyue." Li Yuerong explained.

"Haha, you two are really interesting. Why do you have to bring your own characters when you name the puppy? When I see Pangpang in the future, I will think of what you two should do?"

Xu Cibing giggled, but Xiao Xueqiong was a little unconvinced here, so she retorted: "It's because I think names like "Big, Big, Small, Strong, Thin, Thin" are too rustic."

Li Yuerong, who was drinking tea, suddenly heard her "husband" nickname, and her expression was a little subtle for a moment. She wanted to tell Xiao Xueqiong that Zhao Xu's nickname was "Zhuang Zhuang", but considering that Xu Cibing was still on the side, she held back I thought to myself: family ugliness should not be publicized, let's have fun with this kind of thing after we return home.

Xu Cibing curled his lips, apparently realizing that Xiao Xueqiong was teasing him, thought about it again and again, and finally said aggrievedly: "Actually, I think so too, but this is the name given by His Royal Highness King Qin."

"Where is Chubby so rustic? It sounds very cute. I really like this name. Ake is indeed my younger brother." Li Yuerong comforted.

Xiao Xueqiong rolled her eyes, ignored the pair of aunts and sisters-in-law, and leaned down to tease Pangpang.

"When I was talking to the Duke's wife in the front yard just now, I met the maids who wanted to go with you to the palace. They were all reliable and prudent, and they would discuss things after you went there." Li Yuerong said to Xu Cibing.

"En." Xu Cibing nodded slightly, but did not speak.Li Yuerong saw it and asked: "Why are you so hesitant, what do you want to say?"

"No..." Xu Cibing shook his head again, waved his hands again, and finally said after a long time of fiddling: "I heard...Ning Cixin and the others have already entered the mansion... ...have no idea......"

"Oh, this matter." Li Yuerong said indifferently, "Don't worry too much. You don't need any ceremonies to enter the side room. As a rule, you should enter the mansion before you and A Ke get married, so that they can wait for you You, rather than letting you greet them."

"I understand that, but that's not what I want to ask," Xu Ci Bingla asked with her head shrugged, "I want to ask my sister, how is Miss Ning's family doing after she enters the door... Is it the same as His Royal Highness King Qin?" ?”

Li Yuerong wanted to laugh a little, but she held back: "I don't know about this, because A Ke didn't mention it to me. But..."

"But what?" Xu Cibing asked hastily.

"But I think you think too much." Li Yuerong said

"Huh?" Xu Cibing was puzzled.

"If Ake is really stuck in Ning Cixin's gentle country, and if she is glued to her all day long, how can I, a sister, not see it? Besides, he hasn't mentioned to me the current female relatives in his house, but I often ask about you."

"My business? What's the matter?" Xu Cibing asked anxiously.

Li Yuerong replied unhurriedly: "How's your body, how's your mood? Are you going to wash your face with tears when you're about to get married? And how's your marriage going, and so on."

"Oh." Xu Cibing responded calmly, but couldn't hide the smile on his fleshy face.

When Li Yuerong thought that this topic could be put to rest, she heard the other party say: "But I heard from my elder brother that he drank with His Highness King Qin a few days ago. There is no loss to her brother, and the words are very affectionate."

"Cough," Li Yuerong choked on the tea, and said with some helplessness: "Ake's words are too frivolous, but men like to talk about things when they drink. I think he said so One is bragging, showing that he has got a beautiful woman, and the other is flattering Ning Sheng. You see, your brother and Ning Cixin's brother are by his side, but you are the wife and Ning Cixin is the concubine, so he must To appease Ning Sheng."

Xu Cibing nodded, apparently feeling that Li Yuerong's words made sense.

"As for the other side concubine, she is ordinary-looking and cowardly. He was assigned to Ake by the emperor. Speaking of which, it has a lot to do with my family. I will talk about it in detail later. Just remember not to make things difficult for her."

"Yes, I see." Xu Cibing silently wrote down.

"Okay, are you relieved now?" Li Yuerong asked.

Xu Cibing rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "There is one last question."

Li Yuerong said helplessly: "Then ask quickly."

"Sister, have you met Ning Cixin? Hmm? How is it?" Xu Cibing looked expectant.

"What's the matter? She looks good and speaks well, but she has a bitter face, which I don't like." Li Yuerong said.

"Ah, that's all?" Xu Cibing felt that Li Yuerong was perfunctory her, so he turned to ask Xiao Xueqiong who was having a great time at the side: "Xueqiong, have you met Miss Ning's family?"

Although Xiao Xueqiong had been playing beside her without interjecting, she listened attentively to the conversation between the two, and immediately replied casually: "Yes, my sister took me to her boudoir."

"Then what do you think of her, is she pretty? Does she have a nice voice? How is she compared to me?" Xu Cibing immediately threw out a series of questions.

Xiao Xueqiong stood up, looked into the distance with empty eyes, stroked her chin as a thoughtful memory: "This Ning girl... Speaking of appearance, it is Emei and phoenix eyes, with icy muscles and bones, which makes people feel aroused." It’s a kind of blasphemy at first glance.”

"Huh?" Xu Cibing was a little confused, how could he be profane after just a few more glances.

"Ahem, she is beautiful anyway," Xiao Xueqiong was afraid that Xu Cibing would not believe her, and added, "I have seen countless women in the past ten years. I have never seen any kind of beauties, but this Miss Ning family can just do it." It caught my eye at the first sight, and it made me feel amazing, and I will never forget it."

Xiao Xueqiong spoke happily, and didn't notice at all that Li Yuerong raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, with an expression of "interesting".

"Ah, that seems to be prettier than me..." Xu Cibing had already been hit, and his tone was not as excited as before.

Xiao Xueqiong grinned, and continued: "Not only that, Miss Ning is not only beautiful, but also has a nice voice. Talking to her is simply a pleasure."

Xu Cibing curled his lips and didn't speak.

"Miss Ning's boudoir has the exquisite beauty of a girl's home, but also has an elegant and bookish atmosphere. As for me, I can be regarded as a good scholar. When I saw a pair of calligraphy and paintings hanging in her room, I thought it was someone As for the authentic work, after reading the signature, I know that Miss Ning wrote it herself." Although Xiao Xueqiong's tone was exaggerated, she was telling the truth.

"I can't compare with this." Xu Cibing had turned into a frosty eggplant at this moment.

"Ah, that's right!" Xiao Xueqiong didn't forget to give a crit at the end: "Ms. Ning is doing a great job. Before my sister and I left, she gave us a fan of her show. Next time I will give it to you." Do you see?"

"Okay, okay," Li Yuerong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stopped Xiao Xueqiong's storytelling.At this time, Xu Cibing sighed and said: "I knew that His Royal Highness Qin Wang liked her, so I said that I wanted to marry her as a princess. But at that time, I thought she would definitely not be able to be a princess, so I... ...But for some reason recently, I feel more and more uneasy, always wondering if I did something wrong, if..."

"You're right," Li Yuerong interrupted her, "Even if you don't become Princess Qin, she won't be able to do it. First of all, she won't be able to pass my test. Now that everything is ready, why are you bothering to think about these things? It's irrelevant. If you really feel that you have a guilty conscience towards her, you should be more tolerant to her in the future. For her, a kind and generous wife is better than a cruel and jealous one, right?"

"What my sister said is that I was on the edge of a dead end." Xu Cibing's heart was relieved a lot.

"Okay, it's getting late, we should go too." Li Yuerong stood up and said goodbye.

"Leave so soon, talk to me again, I'm boring being locked up in the room every day." Xu Cibing put aside the lingering thoughts for the time being, Ning (Xiao) Ci (Xue) Xin (Joan) The shadow that came, grabbed Li Yuerong's cuff to hold him back.

"You don't have many days to stay in the Duke's Mansion, so don't be bored and spend more time with your parents." Li Yuerong persuaded, "Ah, yes, I almost forgot about serious things."

"What's serious?" Xu Cibing asked.

"This one is for you." Li Yuerong took out the box containing the jade hairpin from her sleeve pocket.

"What is this?" Xu Cibing took it carefully.

"It's my mother's relic. It's very precious. You should take good care of it. One day you make a mistake and Ake ignores you, or you two quarrel, and he doesn't want to bow to you, or he sees beautiful Little girl, I forgot about you, take this thing out and bring it with you." Li Yuerong said half-truthfully.
