Chapter 50: The King of Chu is gone

“…… King of Chu? Xue Jinyi thought that she had seen Master Huijing that day, and when she came out of the meditation room, she met the King of Chu.

Did he eavesdrop on the corner?

She wasn't angry, she acted in a scene for the King of Chu?

Although a scene in Baiyun Temple is in vain now, as far as the situation is concerned, King Chu has done a good thing.

Wait a minute...... Doesn't this owe the King of Chu a favor?

But he didn't mention it, he just didn't care, and such a thoughtful arrangement was a good thing for him and her - she didn't have to marry, and the king of Chu didn't have to marry her, the best of both worlds.

The king of Chu didn't want to marry a strange woman...... Xue Jinyi was relieved, a faint smile finally appeared on her face, and she folded her hands and bowed to Master Huijing, "Thank you Master for telling me this and relieving my troubles." ”

The king of Chu left the capital by himself to quell the rumors, and the marriage had to be abandoned, and Empress Cai would not blame Mrs. Xue. Then, Mrs. Xue doesn't have to go to great lengths to marry her to the King of Chu, she can continue to chant and chant Buddha in the family temple with peace of mind, and take advantage of the opportunity of the year to make a plan.

She felt a lot more relaxed, and was finally able to concentrate on listening to Master Huijing's explanation of the Buddhist scriptures.

In the evening, Xue Huai deliberately went to the Chu Wang's Mansion again, this time he climbed up the wall and shouted, but the Chu's little lover did not appear, and the whole mansion was lifeless, as if there was no one.

It seems that the king of Chu has left and gone to Baiyun Temple.

Xue Huai was relieved, and hopped back to the broken courtyard in the Weiguo Mansion, and as soon as he pushed open the door, he smelled the fragrance of food.

"What did you do today?" He couldn't wait to come to the stove, and after glancing around, he immediately pretended not to care, "I didn't eat what you made at noon, and you can't run away at night?" Otherwise, I won't tell you what happened to King Chu's side. ”

Xue Jinyi smiled, but didn't care about the children, the kitchen knife chopped on the cutting board with a rhythmic "dong dong" sound, and after a while, a tender cucumber was cut into thin slices, she put the cucumber slices into a bowl, sprinkled a little salt, and then uncovered a small pot next to it and put in a handful of green vegetables.

Xue Huai frowned, "That's how you do it with cold cucumbers?" ”

"What's the hurry," Xue Jinyi glanced at him with a smile, "I haven't even been in a hurry to ask you how you are going." ”

Xue Huai stuck out his tongue at her, "I won't tell you!" He didn't leave, just leaned against the door frame and stared at Xue Jinyi taking a large bowl from the small pot, "I want to see with my own eyes what good things you can make." ”

Xue Jinyi filled the soup, poured the water in the cucumber slices, sprinkled with salt and vinegar and other seasonings, mixed it with chopsticks, and placed it in front of Xue Huai, "It's hot today, you have run outside a few times, this sweet and sour cold cucumber and sour bamboo shoot soup is the most appetizing to cool off." ”

Xue Huai smelled the sweet and sour taste and was greedy.

He tried to restrain his impulse, pouting, "It's okay." ”

Xue Jinyi pursed her lips and smiled, and quickly made a dish of steamed tofu with chopped peppers, a big bowl of braised fish, and the green vegetables and salted pork in the pot were also steamed, and the rice was ready to eat.

Mama Yao and Caiyun brought the food to the stone table in the shade of the tree, and Xue Huai picked up the chopsticks to eat.

Xue Jinyi unceremoniously opened his hand and asked, "Have you washed your hands?" ”

"It doesn't matter if you wash it or not!" Xue Huai stared straight at the food.

"Go wash your hands, or you won't be able to eat." Xue Jinyi ordered with a tiger face, in this era, the sanitary conditions are backward, people are easy to be infected with some diseases, Old Madam Xue values Xue Huai so much, how can she not be careful?

Xue Huai pursed his mouth, but obediently went to the well to wash his hands, then returned to the stone table, glared at Xue Jinyi, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate.

It looks like a very ordinary side dish, but after passing through Xue Jinyi's hands, how did it become so delicious? Looking at the way she cooks, it's not much different from the kitchen at home......

He lamented in his heart, he always came to Xue Jinyi's side to eat, would she be held hostage by her...... But Xue Jinyi doesn't seem to have done anything to be sorry for her grandmother so far, she has really changed......

Xue Huai's mind was in a mess, and he could only use eating to forget his troubles.

Xue Jinyi ate slowly, although the courtyard was dilapidated, everyone was happily eating, and the atmosphere was great.

No matter how many difficulties there are in the future, she will step on them one by one and live well.

The next day, Xue Jinyi went to Mrs. Xue to say goodbye to Mrs. Xue in the early morning, and then came to the library pavilion.

Master Huijing was meditating and chanting the Buddha statue, and she didn't want to disturb her, so she went to the bookshelf and took a casual stroll.

Although the Weiguo Mansion is a family of military generals, there are bookshelves in the library that cannot be seen at a glance, which are neatly arranged in different categories, and there is not even a little dust, which is very different from the west wing of the broken courtyard.

Xue Jinyi took a few books and opened them, and decided to take a good look at the books here in the future while listening to Master Huijing's explanation of the Buddhist scriptures.

Suddenly, the door of the library was pushed open, and a maid ran in and shouted, "Miss Jin, Madame is looking for you." ”

I just met Mrs. Xue, what's going on here?

Xue Jinyi didn't feel very good, walked over, and asked in a gentle voice, "Is there anything wrong with my mother looking for me?" ”

The maid said, "Madame only asked the slave and maid to come to you, but she didn't explain anything." ”

Could it be that the king of Chu left and the marriage was abandoned, and Mrs. Xue was not very happy, so she was looking for her to make things difficult?

Xue Jinyi returned to the main courtyard with the maid with doubts, and when she entered the house, she first saw Mrs. Xue smiling, and then her eyes turned to the person Mrs. Xue was looking at, and her heart sank.

The man's dress......

On that day, Miss Xue San pointed to the little waiter and said that she had a crush on someone.

And the person in front of him is not much different from the service of the little chamberlain.

Someone from the palace! Xue Jinyi secretly clenched her fists, and came to Mrs. Xue with a calm face to salute, "I don't know if my mother called Jinyi here, do you have any instructions?" ”

Mrs. Xue looked at her with a smile in her eyes, "Jinyi, you go to the side room to change your clothes, and follow me into the palace to meet the queen mother." ”

Enter the palace?! Xue Jinyi tightened her skirt, she knew very well what it meant to enter the palace.

Why is this happening?

Xue Jinyi came out of the house, took a deep breath and calmed herself, there is no endless road, even if you are in this situation, you will definitely be able to find a way to break the situation!

The maid led her to the next room, and another maid brought a set of dresses, the white upper neckline was embroidered with delicate butterflies, and the pale pink lower skirt had an orchid pattern, which was beautiful and luxurious.

Then, another mother-in-law came, opened the jewelry box in her hand, and the brilliance of the jewelry emanated, "Miss Jin, please sit down, the slave will comb your hair beautifully." ”

Thinking about the funny appearance when she entered the palace draft, Xue Jinyi sneered, this time she knew how to dress her?

The mother-in-law was a little stunned when she saw Xue Jinyi, thinking that it was the first time she had seen such beautiful dresses and jewelry, so she was stunned, and she couldn't help but feel funny in her heart, but on the surface, she politely gestured to please, "Miss Jin, you can't delay entering the palace, otherwise the queen will blame it, and it will affect Madame!" ”
