Chapter 208: self-deception
On the way back, Jiang Xuening happened to bump into Yan Lin.
Looking at the direction is to go to Xie Wei's side.
Seeing that her face turned green as if she had taken poison, and her feet were on clouds, he couldn't help being startled. He glanced behind her first, and then asked, "What's the matter, you just came back from Mr. Xie's place?"
Jiang Xuening was sour in his mouth, throat, and even his entire stomach. He really didn't want to say a word, so he waved his hands and said, "Mr. Xie seems to be in a bad mood today. You have to be careful when you go to find him."
Yan Lin was at a loss.
However, Jiang Xuening almost lost control of her speech and retched, and hurriedly said goodbye to Yan Lin and went to her own room.
This made Yan Lin a little surprised.
He looked at her back for a moment, thoughtful.
But still looking for Xie Wei.
Daozhong inevitably encountered Jianshu again, and he also asked Jianshu what he was doing with the vegetables.
Jianshu smiled badly, and said to feed the dog.
Yan Lin felt strange again.
Soon he arrived outside Xie Wei's house, saw Daoqin standing outside, bowed to pay respects to Wei Wei, while he stepped forward and bowed to the door outside the house, saying: "Yan Lin, come to see Mr.
Xie Wei was inside and told him to come in.
After he went in, he looked at Xie Wei's expression, it was clear that the weather was calm and breezy, no different from the usual times, and he couldn't see the "unhappiness" that Jiang Xuening said earlier.
The two were talking about food and grass.
Seeing that it has entered winter.
The weather in the north is getting colder and colder.
Since there was going to be a war, and the food and grass would not be available for a day, everyone would have no idea for a day. According to their original plan, Lu Xian, who was supposed to arrive today, has not heard from him, which is really worrying.
Xie Wei is also always paying attention to the news of the food and supplies, and he knows it well, so he said: "Lu Xian didn't bring anything before, and the people from the Ren's Salt Works are in charge of the real food and supplies for a few days. It doesn't matter if Lu Xian doesn't arrive on time, as long as the people from the Ren's Saltworks arrive on time, Lu Xian has some plans in mind, so don't worry about him."
The meaning of the words is very clear-
Anyway, Lu Xian was not in charge of transporting food, grass and luggage, so it was no pity that he died on the road due to some accident.
Fortunately, Lu Xian himself is not here, otherwise, after hearing what he said, he would be so angry.
Yan Lin finally heard something "unpleasant" from these words.
Xie Wei was slightly aware and asked, "Anything?"
Yan Lin raised his eyes and said: "I met Ning Ning just now when I came here, and seeing that she was not feeling well, she told me that my husband seems to be in a bad mood today."
Ning Ning.
Xie Wei flipped over a page of Daoist scriptures under his hand with long fingers, raised his brows like light ink in Yuanshan, smiled indifferently, and said softly: "The little girl is not very obedient, just treat it. There's nothing wrong with me."
Yan Lin looked at him without saying a word.
Xie Wei turned his eyes to look at him as well, but he didn't seem to realize that he said something wrong, he was still very indifferent, as if nothing had happened, he put the matter aside, and went to talk about various matters in the army.
What's wrong with Xie?
After Jiang Xuening returned to the room, she rinsed her mouth several times and put a few sweet preserves in her mouth, before she managed to suppress the sourness. But the sour pressure went down, but doubts slowly emerged.
She didn't guess at all?
Not quite.
Sometimes Xie Wei makes things very obvious.
It would be too false to say that she couldn't guess the slightest clue.
But if you guess too clearly, you will be embarrassing yourself.
It's better to pretend to be a little confused.
After all, Xie Ju'an is also a person who knows how to measure, he just does things but doesn't talk, he probably knows that some window paper cannot be pierced.
Really punctured, everyone was embarrassed.
So she thought that even if this person was upset and unhappy, he probably wouldn't torment her for too long. Besides, it was he who wanted to make a fuss. Could it be that she was still like this time, sending her to his door to make it up?
Jiang Xuening felt that this kind of thing would not happen twice.
So she was relieved a lot.
Half an hour ago, I had enough jealousy at Xie Wei's side; half an hour later, I was already like a normal person, asking the kitchen to prepare a few good dishes for me, and suppressed my shock.
The next day, Xie Wei really didn't ask anyone to look for him, so Jiang Xuening went for a walk around the city and bought a small spinning top;
On the third day, Xie Wei and Yan Lin went out of the city to inspect the garrison, and Jiang Xuening took the maid to play the leaf card all night;
On the fourth day, Xie Wei summoned the lieutenant generals to discuss matters, Jiang Xuening found the best restaurant in the city, and had two drinks;
fifth day...
On the fifth day, Xie Wei was finally free.
In the early morning of that day, Jiang Xuening opened her eyes, and the voice of Jianshu invited her from outside as if urging her soul.
She woke up with a fright.
Despite all kinds of refusals and excuses, he made up his mind not to fall into the same pit twice, and his will to refuse was very firm, but he couldn't stand up to Jianshu's faint sentence: "Sir, if you don't want to go decently, It’s okay to tie it up and go.”
"..."
Jiang Xuening gave in.
She never expected that in addition to digging holes for people to jump, there would be such a shameless coercive method, it's simply despicable!
When they got to Xiewei's house, they naturally saw another table of good food.
Jiang Xuening was terrified as if she was testing poison.
However, to my surprise, this time it was really a delicious dish. The sourness is sour, the spicy is so spicy, and the crispy meat rolled in oil is full of flavor. The white soup with green vegetables warms from the throat to the stomach in one sip. The diced chicken dipped in peppercorns and the round, tender green peas are fried in a plate. After eating a few spoonfuls of rice, it trembles from the lips to the tip of the tongue...
At first she looked at Xie Wei as an out-and-out evil ghost, but after eating, she looked at him again like a saint who saves suffering.
After this meal, Xie Wei seemed to be at ease, but Yan Lin was so busy that he never touched the ground and was never in the mansion.
I also know that the war is about to start.
As a general, he couldn't be idle.
So in the next few days, Jiang Xuening ate every meal, and every time she ate happily, it seemed that Xie Wei's anger had disappeared, and she thought about how much she should eat the previous nightmare meal Forget it.
Unexpectedly, on this day Xie Wei suddenly asked her: "Now you dare to let go of your courage and eat?"
Jiang Xuening shivered, almost choking to death on the ball in her throat.
Xie Wei handed her a glass of water.
She coughed twice after drinking, and then put on a smile: "Mr. Sage has a heart, and he doesn't necessarily cook for others. If this person eats it, she should be grateful. Even if there is a mistake, then It must be her fault."
That's a nice word.
Xie Wei couldn't hear it well.
He bent his lips and smiled: "You really forget to eat but not fight."
Jiang Xuening thought in her heart: Isn't that the result you want to see after giving a nest of sweet dates? Why do you still make me sour?
She pretended not to understand.
He just said in a daze: "Who told Mr. to cook such a good dish? It's so good, I can't remember it even if I want to."
Xie Wei hated her smirk, turned the wine cup around in his hand, and raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
Jiang Xuening clenched her fists: "I am willing to go through fire and water for my husband."
Xie Wei scoffed: "I'm afraid it's not for Mr., but for this stuttering?"
Jiang Xuening rolled her eyes, but like a little fox, she squinted her eyes and smiled shyly: "In the world, if only Mr. cooks so deliciously, then Mr. Wei still stutters for this, isn't it the same?"
Xie Wei looked at her for a long time without speaking.
Jiang Xuening felt her palms start to sweat, even though she warned herself to be calm, when the light flickered in the corners of her eyes, she still revealed a little uneasiness.
Xie Wei stared at her for a long time, then looked away, looked at the wine cup in his hand, but suddenly said: "You said, you and Zhang Zhe are in love, why can't you be together?"
Jiang Xuening's pupils suddenly constricted.
The old affair with Zhang Zhe was a scar on her body, but Xie Wei's words were like a knife, he would mercilessly pick it away!
He did it on purpose.
Even malicious.
Her eyes turned cold, and she said: "It's not always possible for lovers to be together. The world is unpredictable, and there are gaps in white porcelain that are hard to bridge. What does it have to do with you?"
Xie Weizhen is not a kind person, seeing her with spikes all over her body, she felt a lot of joy in her heart, but just looking at her, she couldn't help but mocked: "Is there a gap in the white porcelain?"
Jiang Xuening clenched her hands tightly.
Xie Wei just sneered, threw the wine cup on the table casually, and hit the ground with a "boom" sound: "That's right. If you can figure out why you and him can't be together, you won't be called Jiang Xuening, let alone today." will sit here."
This is a cowardly person who is afraid of pain and suffering and deceiving himself.
It's time to ask him to stand up.
He didn't want to say any more useful words to this elm lump, he flicked his sleeves, got up and walked outside, only saying: "The more you eat, the more stupid your brain becomes. Lu Xian and You Fangyin are already outside the city, don't Let's eat, let's go together."
