He knew that Tong Xiaoye, who was washing up, could hear his words, because he saw Tong Xiaoye's back froze slightly and her movements paused slightly.
Xuan Jinmo couldn't help but laugh, teasing Tong Xiaoye seemed more interesting than expected.
Wouldn't it be more interesting if she wasn't the daughter of the Tong family?!
A trace of indifference and cruelty flashed across Xuan Jinmo's face. He moved his body to avoid Ping'er and Mi'er's hands that were attached to his body. He snorted softly in his nose, which scared Ping'er and Mi'er and immediately retreated.
Stand with your hands down half a step.
Tong Xiaoye tried her best to control herself and finished washing up quietly, then stood there, quietly waiting for Xuan Jinmo to wash up. This was in his house. Although she married him, Tong Xiaoye didn't feel that she was really welcome.
It just felt like she felt it would be better to remain silent.
Breakfast was very simple, with porridge, rice and side dishes, and the two of them sat down separately.
After eating for a while, Xuan Jinmo suddenly said quietly: "Is your brother looking for Xuan Jincheng who came back privately from the border?"
Tong Xiaoye said nothing, lowered his head and ate his own food, as if he didn't hear anything.
"He won't find it at this time." Xuan Jinmo said calmly.
Tong Xiaoye remained silent, still lowering his head and eating the food in front of him.
The servants and cronies were waiting outside, and there were only two of them in the room, but Xuan Jinmo had a strange feeling, as if he was the only one eating, and Tong Xiaoye seemed not to care about his presence. She was surprisingly quiet.
"I'm talking to you." Xuan Jinmo frowned and raised his voice.
Tong Xiaoye put down his chopsticks, looked at Xuan Jinmo, and said calmly: "It's the rule not to talk when eating or sleeping. I know you are talking to me, how do you want me to answer? I'll help you laugh. My brother has not been found yet.
Xuan Jincheng who escaped?! Still angrily scolding you for being a villain, knowing that you can help but deliberately watching the joke?!"
Xuan Jin stared at Tong Xiaoye silently for a long time before saying, "I didn't expect you to be so sharp-tongued! You are completely different from the Tong Xiaoye you were before you married me!"
Tong Xiaoye said expressionlessly: "You are different from brother Jinmo who said he wanted to marry me before! If you do this, I will do the same. This is called the husband singing and the wife following!"
Xuan Jin silently stared at Tong Xiaoye opposite him, wanting to laugh but not being annoyed.
"Are you okay? Can I eat in peace?" Tong Xiaoye was holding fire in her heart, and there was some deliberate provocation in her eyes. "If you promise that I only need to listen and don't need to answer for the next time, I will be very grateful."
Xuan Jinmo stopped looking at Tong Xiaoye and stopped talking. He lowered his head and ate the food.
After dinner, Xuan Jinmo went to the meeting hall in front. The fake Xuan Jincheng sneaked back from the border pass. He knew in advance that Xuan Jincheng, the real Xuan Jinxiu, left the border pass, and the news was delivered to him.
He is here.
Four years ago, Princess Tianxiang made him a cripple. The emperor sent him to the border and did not allow him to return to Kyoto. Xuan Jinmo arranged for him to meet an "outworld master" by chance and teach him some evil tricks.
And use poison. He will not swallow this breath, so he will definitely come back for revenge.
However, at this time, Xuan Jinmo chose to avoid it.
Tong Xiaoye admired the snow for a while and went back to his room to rest. Ping'er and Mi'er followed absentmindedly.
After sitting at the table and reading for a while, Tong Xiaoye wanted to drink a cup of tea. He picked up the empty teacup on the table and glanced at Ping'er and Mi'er, who were standing not far from the table. They had their heads lowered.
Thinking about their respective thoughts, she raised her eyebrows and took the teapot from the table. The tea had already gone cold, and then she realized that the stove in the room was about to go out.
Tong Xiaoye put down the book in his hand, stood up, walked to the stove, added a few pieces of charcoal, toasted his hands, and said slowly: "You two, can you tell me what you are thinking about?"
Ping'er and Mi'er were startled. They both raised their heads and looked at Tong Xiaoye blankly.
"The fire is about to go out, there is no water in my teacup, and the water in the teapot is already cold." Tong Xiaoye said lightly, "Are you here to serve me, or are you here thinking about how to please your master? Even so.
Your master likes you, so at least you have to pretend to be in front of me."
Ping'er and Mi'er immediately stepped forward, one taking care of the fire and the other changing the tea.
Tong Xiaoye took a sip of tea and sighed. This tea was the leftover tea from before. Mi'er, the slave, was probably still entangled in her heart. She only remembered to refill the hot water but did not change the tea leaves.
She put down the tea cup, looked at the two slaves in front of her who were in a daze, and said calmly: "What did you do before you came to the house to become slaves?"
Ping'er and Mi'er looked at each other, lowered their heads and said, "We have always been in the house."
Tong Xiaoye frowned and said calmly: "Liar! You two act loosely, your eyes are charming, and the tips of your fingers are not wet with spring water. I'm afraid you are the woman from Xiluan Pavilion, right?"
Ping'er and Mi'er raised their heads at the same time and looked at Tong Xiaoye.
"That's all, you go back to your master and say that I don't like you serving me. You should go and serve him, lest I look awkward and you serve him awkwardly." Tong Xiaoye said slowly, feeling strange in his heart that he was a little awkward.
Indifferent attitude.
They are just two slaves, and there must be a process of getting used to and adapting. After all, they are not Ah Hui, but she just doesn't like them two, especially when she thinks that maybe they were Xuan Jinmo's women before she married her.
, and felt even more unhappy.
"Madam -" Ping'er and Mi'er looked at Tong Xiaoye uneasily, "If the master knew that the madam disliked us, he would probably send us back to Xiluan Pavilion. If we did, the godmother would definitely not let us off lightly.
.Please Madam please spare the slaves this time."
Tong Xiaoye said in a faint tone, "You just say I don't like it - in this way, you can just say I don't like your appearance, just because it makes you uncomfortable."
Ping'er and Mi'er stood still.
Tong Xiaoye frowned and said in a slightly unhappy voice: "While you are saying that you don't want me to send you back, and at the same time you don't listen to my instructions, do you have to tell me personally to your master? I'm afraid it will be even worse at that time. You
He just said that I didn't like it, and he just thought that I was jealous and wouldn't embarrass you. If I said it myself, you would just be kicked out!"
Ping'er and Mi'er looked at each other, hesitated, and then looked at the non-negotiable expression on Tong Xiaoye's face, and had no choice but to retreat.
Tong Xiaoye picked up the book on the table expressionlessly and continued reading.
Xuan Jinmo sat at the table, finished writing the last word, sealed the letter, and gave it to his confidant to send out. He heard a confidant outside shouting: "Master, Ping'er and Mi'er have something to see.
master."
Xuan Jin was stunned for a moment, he couldn't believe that Tong Xiaoye would give in so quickly. If she really gave in and let Ping'er and Mi'er come to him, things would be really boring.
