I was Idle and Cool Chapter 57: Fix the sheep

I don't know.

She didn't know anything about Xue Kuang's personal habits.

One is because the relationship between Lu and Xue Kuang is unfamiliar, and there are no words related to this; the other is that Xue Kuang passed away for nearly six years, which was a long time ago, and the people around him did not How to mention Xue Kuang, the servants in the house have changed.

Even if Lu Jinxi wanted to know, there was nowhere to ask.

If you try to inquire, it will be too revealing.

What's more, she never thought that she would face the current situation...

Looking at Xue Tingzhi's eyes, Lu Jinxi suspects that she must have made a mistake, but she is not sure whether it is because Xue Tingzhi heard the story is too outrageous, or she found out which details of the story she told were wrong.

If a flaw is seen...

That's the fun.

Facing Xue Tingzhi's gaze, there was a faint dark light flowing from the bottom of Lu Jinxi's eyes, but she concealed it well, even if she had guesses in her heart, she didn't show it on her face.

At the moment, he only put on a slightly surprised expression and said with a smile: "When did you come? Really, the maids outside don't know the rules, so they told you to wait outside without saying a word. It's time to teach you a lesson. ."

Xue Chi and Luo Dingfang, who had just finished listening to the story, came to their senses when they heard the voice and looked towards the door.

Xue Mingli and Xue Minglang were standing outside, just like them, they recovered from the story.

The expressions on the faces of the two little girls were a little dazed.

Only Xue Tingzhi, his eyes narrowed, he had already bowed down and said: "I see my mother, please give my mother peace. When Tingzhi and the two young ladies came, they only listened to the story of the mother inside, and they were very focused. I didn't dare to disturb, so I didn't ask anyone to report. But I didn't wait long, and I ask my mother to forgive me."

Forgive...

Lu Jinxi's eyes swept across the body of the maids at the door, and then glanced at Qingque standing next to her, after all, she suppressed some thoughts in her heart and did not settle accounts for the time being.

She kept her smile on her face, and only beckoned them to come in: "Don't stand outside, come in and sit."

A few people walked in.

Luo Dingfang was still young, and he didn't have anything to say to avoid suspicion. The old and young people, both inside and outside, greeted each other with a curious appearance.

After that, Lu Jinxi called and sat down.

Xue Mingli folded her hands in front of her, knowing that Lu Jinxi was going to talk to Sister Lang today, so she felt a little nervous when she sat down.

Xue Minglang was forcibly pulled over today.

She didn't want to come, but she didn't know where Li sister went to find Xue Tingzhi, and coaxed her to come to greet her. So at this moment, her face was not very good. Although she asked An, she didn't look at Lu Jinxi, looking stubborn.

Lu Jinxi had already planned to solve this problem today, so she didn't really mind when she saw it, she just said to them: "I went out today and I have already chosen gifts for you all. When I came back, I asked the maid to deliver them to your yard. It's all chosen at will, if you see any you like, or if there is something missing in the room, you can report it, and I'll buy it for you later."

The gift was given before, and several people have it.

Xue Tingzhi also received it early.

It is a golden fan from Shu.

The fan is painted with landscape patterns and decorated with gold foil. It is very precious. There is also a topaz fan pendant on the bottom.

The maid said it was brought by the second grandmother, and said that she brought it when she went out today.

He looked at it and couldn't tell how he felt.

At that time, I guessed that someone else had it too.

Now that I'm here with Lu Jinxi, I know what I expected from her.

Xue Tingzhi lowered his eyes slightly, and after the others thanked him, his face was calm as well, and he thanked him: "Tingzhi also received the fan sent by my mother. I sincerely thank my mother for her kindness."

Oh.

In fact, she just bought it casually, just to make up the number.

Lu Jinxi's feelings towards Xue Tingzhi are always very strange: I don't like it, I don't hate it, I don't really care about it, but there is an inexplicable concern.

But because she caught a glimpse of the child's emotions last time, she was actually extra careful when she treated him.

Listening to him thanking her, she just folded her hands on her knees, smiling dignifiedly and dignifiedly: "But it's just a fan. I saw it when I was passing by, and I bought it. The eldest son doesn't dislike it."

It's easy.

These two words, like two nails, plunged into Xue Tingzhi's heart again.

He turned pale for no reason, vaguely aware of the indifference in Lu Jinxi's attitude towards him...

"A gift from my mother, how dare I dislike it."

It's good to see him dislike it.

It's just that Lu Jinxi wouldn't say it, and now he's just showing his attitude slightly so that Xue Tingzhi knows something.

Xue Chi on the side looked at his left and his right, thinking that he came back late, and he hadn't even gone to his house to see if the gift was there. there.

He felt itchy and couldn't help but ask, "Mother, do I have it?"

"Yes..." Lu Jinxi looked at his expectant little eyes and shook his head helplessly, "How dare you forget your little ancestor?"

"Ah, mother is really good!" Xue Chi was so happy that he almost jumped up from the chair, but immediately said, "But mother, don't tell me what it is. Wait for me to go back and see. It's a surprise!"

As a child, there are more rules.

Lu Jinxi sighed again in her heart, but of course she still followed him: "Yes, yes, it's all about you. I won't tell you if you want to surprise me, I'll tell you the story if you want to hear it, okay? "

"Did my mother tell my brother a story just now, and my father's story?"

Xue Mingli was outside just now and listened to most of it.

At this moment, when I heard Lu Jinxi mention "storytelling", I couldn't help being curious and asked in a low voice.

Lu Jinxi smiled and said, "You've all heard a lot, right? That is to say, brother Chi came with the second son of Luo today. Because they saw the Honglu sword, they somehow got involved with the general. Pull me to tell the story. I put together a few passages that Mr. storytellers often tell, and made a few paragraphs."

A joke that Mr. Storyteller often tells?

Bullshit?

Others listened to this passage and actually didn't feel anything.

But for Xue Tingzhi, who had been at the border and had a certain understanding of Xue Kuang, this section was a big problem. He remembered the doubts that popped into his heart when he heard it earlier.

A face, still a little pale.

He looked at Lu Jinxi and took her words very naturally: "My mother is too modest, and this story is also very well told. Listening to Tingzhi, it is inseparable from what Mr. Cai said back then. ."

Mr. Cai...

Lu Jinxi knew who Xue Tingzhi was talking about when he recalled the battle reports he had read.

Xue Kuang was fighting at the border back then, and he was in charge of the tiger talisman and led the army.

He has more than ten generals, including the current nine-door admiral Liu Jin. Fang Shaoxing came to prominence too late, and he was not very good at the beginning. In addition, there was one other person who was very noticeable.

This person is Cai Xiu.

This person does not have any title in the army, but he can speak half of Xue Kuang. He is the number one think tank in the army, and the counselor among the counsellors.

Commonly known as "white paper fan" is also.

After the war ended, some of Xue Kuang's old ministries returned to the capital to serve as officials, such as Liu Jin; others were dispersed to daily garrisoning around the border and never returned to the capital.

Cai Xiu, a white paper fan in the army, is said to have returned to the capital, but eventually returned to the border.

There is no war now, and I don't know what I'm doing.

Lu Jinxi knew that Xue Kuang had stayed at the border gate, but he didn't know that he actually knew what happened to Xue Kuang back then.

"I remember the time of the battle, you should not have been born yet? But I was very lucky to have Mr. Cai tell you the story of the time. I can only read the battle report and make nonsense based on it. Since you've heard it, why don't you tell us about it?"

Children love to hear stories.

They couldn't hear the deep meaning hidden in Lu Jinxi's words, so they just looked forward to it, and they all looked at Xue Tingzhi with expectant eyes.

But Xue Tingzhi heard that little bit...

sarcasm.

As Xue Kuang's wife, she can only know everything about her husband from the battle report.

Now I'm secretly speaking to him like this...

After all, even if Xue Kuang had been gone for six years, she still cared about it, right?

This thought just flashed through his mind, but it didn't come to light at all.

Xue Tingzhi's fingers quietly stiffened a little, and he only smiled slightly.

"My mother is dead, I dare not refuse."

"It's just that Mr. Cai spoke very briefly. He only said that when my father first arrived, he did encounter some difficulties. But afterwards, he was all convinced by his father."

"Beheading Prince Yikun is three moves to take the head. Because of his arrogance and arrogance, he didn't take his father seriously."

Cai Xiu was actually very young.

Calculating this year, he was actually about the same age as Xue Kuang, thirty-three or four. When he spoke, he only had an old-fashioned tone mixed with faint mockery.

Xue Tingzhi knew that it was a mockery of those who despised Xue Kuang in the first place.

"As soon as Prince Yikun died, the Xiongnu army was plunged into civil strife, without a leader."

"As a result, Yunzhou City got a chance to breathe, and my father became a hero who turned the tide. At the celebration banquet, the people presented the local unique Liyun wine to reward the sergeant."

"The original guards in the city were all at this banquet, toasting their father and making amends for their previous rudeness."

When he said this, Xue Tingzhi's voice was very natural, as if what he said was what Cai Xiu said at the beginning.

Between those handsome brows and eyes, there was a faint coldness of Bianguan Liangyue.

His eyes turned to Lu Jinxi, but he was calm: "My father finally drank with them, and all the grievances and grievances before the cup of wine were gone, and he became the well-deserved general of the city of Yunzhou City."

The killing of Yi Kun with warm wine, of course, does not exist. But in fact, the speed at which Xue Kuang killed this person and took his head was definitely not slow.

Lu Jinxi's previous compilation, apart from being a little exaggerated, is really inseparable.

The long and thick eyelashes trembled, and the divine light in her eyes, under the cover of its shadow, became somewhat obscure.

After listening to Xue Tingzhi's words, she was silent for a while.

"Mother, are you all right?"

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xue Tingzhi hesitated, and finally asked.

"It's fine."

Lu Jinxi seemed to have reacted just now, but when he raised his eyes to look at him, the bottom of his eyes became more and more distant, and his smile was so faint that he was almost invisible.

"I just didn't expect that the general also drank in the army. I thought..."

The next words, but did not say.

Xue Tingyi couldn't help looking at her, but she saw her brows and eyes were downcast, and her smile seemed to be a bit reluctant, giving a pale feeling.

So suddenly I felt cruel.

——He was actually suspicious of her identity. He also made up unwarranted things to deceive her and wanted to test her truth...

Xue Kuang did not drink a drop of alcohol in the army.

It's not that he doesn't drink, it's just that drinking is easy to make mistakes, and he rules the army very strictly.

Everywhere.

Lu Jinxi was only able to infer the situation at that time based on the battle report, and added the words of the storytellers to make up such a story.

Even the details of drinking after beheading Yi Kun sounded so abrupt and wrong to him.

Listening to what she said just now, she clearly knew that Xue Kuang did not drink alcohol in the army...

For her, what I just said might just be a story.

But when she learned from him that Xue Kuang was drinking alcohol, how should she feel?

Will you be lost?

Disappointed?

Or something else?

He lied to her, but right now he can't say a word to redeem the lie.

Xue Tingzhi could only look at her, falling into a strange silence.

Such silence was caught in Lu Jinxi's eyes.

But she withdrew her gaze, and she laughed coldly from the bottom of her heart: "Little tender grass, this little scheming, do you want to plot against her?" It's still early!

As long as she saw his eyes, she felt that he was doubting herself. But at that time, I wasn't sure what the mistake was in my previous story, I just had a vague hunch.

But then Xue Tingzhi talked about the events of the year, and at the end he seemed to mention drinking unintentionally.

Where is she not sure?

It's not too late to make amends.

A sentence of "I didn't expect", a sentence of "I thought", is enough to dispel all the doubts of Xue Tingzhi, plus...

A little guilt-inducing trick.

Actually, I knew that Xue Tingzhi was a little careful about her...

Lu Jinxi felt that she was despicable.

How many saints are there in the world?

So although Xue Tingzhi felt a little guilt towards her, she didn't feel any guilt towards Xue Tingzhi. She just sighed, and then changed the subject naturally and talked to the other four children.

Xue Chi said the most, and Luo Dingfang occasionally added two sentences.

Xue Mingli listened most of the time, but because Xue Minglang didn't speak today, she had to say a few more words on behalf of her sister, barely maintaining the lively atmosphere in the room.

Xue Chi was also presenting treasures, dragging her two sisters to look at the swords on the table.

Luo Ding had conveniently informed him about the origin of Hong Lujian earlier, so at this moment he proudly showed it off, and said that when he grew up, he would also be a general with a sword.

From beginning to end, Xue Tingzhi was a little distracted.

Until I heard that gentle voice say: "...It's a thank you from the Grand Master Gu from the Grand Master's Mansion, you said that Honglu doesn't make swords anymore, where can you ask for a second one? Mother is not so powerful!"

Looking up, he saw that Lu Jinxi had stood up at some point.

With a smile on her face, she just lightly tapped Xue Chi's forehead, she covered the sword box with both anger and amusement, and asked the maid to carry it down, saying, "It's time to eat, too. You can look at the sword whenever you want, it's not over yet."

Hong Lujian.

Eldest son Gu of the Grand Master's Mansion?

Xue Tingzhi captured these key pieces of information, and the fingers on the armrest suddenly trembled. I noticed for a while that the sword box was also expensive red sandalwood...

A gift?

For some reason, he suddenly remembered what he had heard behind the screen.

That was the ghost hand Zhanglai, who gave him acupuncture behind the screen. The people sent by Princess Yongning came to the room, and they seemed to have given something to Lu Jinxi.

Later, Lu Jinxi went out to send the ghost hand Zhang. He went out of the house and flipped through it, and found that it looked like a roster used by Iceman to talk about matchmaking.

Looking at the age of most of the people above, most of them were prepared for Lu Jinxi.

First there was the roster, and now there is a gift from the eldest son of the Taishifu...

It's hard to describe this feeling.

Xue Tingzhi sat in his seat and did not move.

On the contrary, Lu Jinxi turned to look at him and said with a smile, "You've already met the second son of Luo today, so you can stay for dinner later. I've already told the kitchen to prepare, and there are almost all of you. If you like the food, the eldest son should also keep it."

This time, he didn't actually have much room for rejection.

Xue Tingzhi also did not refuse, silent for a moment, and then responded.

After a while, there was a meal in the house.

The sumptuous dishes are lined up on the table, and several people are sitting around the round table. At the beginning, he still practiced eating without talking or sleeping, but because of Xue Chi, a chatterbox, the table soon became a battlefield.

Even Xue Minglang, who didn't talk much, started to pinch Xue Chi because he wanted to grab a piece of meat from Xue Chi.

Lu Jinxi is still the same as before, with no intention of stopping.

Looking at the two children fighting each other, her eyes were full of smiles, so bright that it seemed to reflect the stars in the sky.

As soon as Xue Tingzhi looked back and saw it, he could hear his heart beating violently.

……

This meal took about half an hour before and after.

When the tea was over, the sky was completely dark outside, so Lu Jinxi ordered someone to light a lantern and send Luo Dingfang back to his house, and Xue Chi naturally followed him for a while.

She didn't stop her.

The remaining three, Xue Tingzhi, Xue Mingli, and Xue Minglang, will also leave.

But before leaving, Lu Jinxi stopped Sister Lang alone and said, "Eldest Young Master and Sister Li, let's go back first, and Sister Lang will stay for a while. I have something to tell her."

When Xue Minglang was about to leave, he immediately stopped.

She was a little surprised, her body was a little stiff, and she looked at Lu Jinxi who was walking towards her...
