17. Chapter 17

After March, the oncoming wind is warmer and warmer, with a faint fragrance of flowers, which is very comfortable.

Shortly after Ningxiang returned to the Hou Mansion, the embroidery room sent her and Suyue's clothes over. Two sets of spring clothes and two sets of summer skirts were all satin materials. The embroidery styles were simple and unique. At first glance, they were embroidered by Aunt Wan. Among them, Ningxiang's four sets of cuffs were all peach blossoms, Suyue's plum blossoms, and the others were basically the same.

The next day, Su Yue changed into a new spring shirt. At the age of fifteen, she was as white as snow, and her figure was graceful. When the breeze blew, her skirt shook gently, and her beautiful figure was revealed. Ningxiang was still wearing the old clothes from early autumn last year. In fact, it looked quite new, but in the eyes of Pei Jinghan, who was not used to using old things, Ningxiang was slightly inferior to Su Yue at this time.

Of course, the appearance is beautiful, but girls need to dress up carefully to be more attractive.

Just after returning from the military camp, Pei Jinghan was a little hot, so he took off his outer robe and handed it to Su Yue, asking her to prepare a hot water bath. He sat on a rattan chair under the plum tree in his thin white clothes to cool off, and then asked the fragrance of squatting there to pour him tea, "Your clothes are not ready yet?"

"I'll wash it, I'll wash it, and I'll wear it in two days." Ningxiang looked at the tea bowl attentively. After pouring it seven minutes, she put down the blue and white porcelain teapot, held it up and turned around. When she raised her eyes, she saw the man leaning lazily on the rattan chair, her long legs spread apart unrestrainedly, and her gray trouser legs were stuffed into black leather boots. Her posture was leisurely and she felt an indescribable sense of aggression.

What are you doing if you are a good young man from a noble family?

It seemed like someone was deliberately looking at his crotch.

If it were Ningxiang in her previous life, she would definitely be blushing because of Pei Jinghan's posture. Now she is much calmer. She lowered her eyes and walked to Pei Jinghan's side, handed over the tea bowl, "Please use it, Prince."

Because Pei Jinghan leaned against the back of the chair and had no intention of sitting directly with tea, she had to bend down.

Pei Jinghan glanced at her neck, but unfortunately the little girl covered her collar too tightly, and no trace of spring was revealed.

He was disappointed and did not show his face. Pei Jinghan took the tea, savored it carefully before returning it to her. He was in a good mood and said, "Chunguang is so good, do you want to go out for a walk with me?"

Ningxiang doesn't want to do it at all!

In her previous life, Pei Jinghan took her to hunt alone. The mountain road was rugged and she wanted to stay in the town's villa waiting for him. Pei Jinghan insisted on letting her enter the mountain, but she accidentally twisted her feet and Pei Jinghan took advantage of it. Moreover, he seemed to be used to doing such things and was very good at grasping the limit. Whenever the idea of ​​seeking death arises in her heart, he will be honest.

If he could live, Ningxiang certainly didn't want to die, so he kept dragging her in fear.

"Where is the prince going?" Turning around and putting the tea bowl, Ningxiang asked quietly, not wanting to refuse to anger him.

"Go to Laoxian Mountain to hunt." Pei Jinghan looked at her fair side face and said, "You and Su Yue stayed in the house all day long, dull and boring. This time I will take you to the mountains to open your eyes and cook prey and eat it directly."

Ningxiang looked at him in surprise. He only brought her in his previous life. Why did he think of taking Suyue this time?

Before he could think about how to refuse, Su Yue came over there, "The water is ready, will the prince take a shower immediately?"

Pei Jinghan didn't move. After Su Yue approached, he also told her about the trip, "How is it, do you want to go?"

His proposal was considered a reward for them. Su Yue glanced at Ningxiang and said happily: "Of course I have to go. When will the prince set out?"

I am so happy that if something happens in the future, it will be easier to relieve him. Even if Ningxiang is blindly avoiding him, it is not appropriate.

One of them agreed, Pei Jinghan took it as both of them agreed and stood up and said, "The day after tomorrow, you can clean up tomorrow."

Su Yue nodded, pulled Ningxiang, who was still a little stunned, and followed Pei Jinghan to the bathroom.

~

Laoxian Mountain is located about 30 miles northwest of Tai'an Prefecture. It is rumored that an old god appeared, so it was named. Liuxian Town is the largest town near Laoxian Mountain. When Pei Jinghan came here for the first time to hunt, he bought a three-entry house in the town. He always came to stay several times a year.

As noon approached, the carriage stopped outside the house, and Ningxiangsuyue got off first.

Ningxiang came here once in her previous life. At this time, she revisited memories that she wanted to forget. Therefore, she only stood respectfully and waited for Pei Jinghan to get off the car. Su Yue had never come, so she looked around curiously. The two women's characters were different, and Pei Jinghan didn't think anything was wrong when she saw it, so she led them in.

Pei Jinghan wanted to see the manager here, so Ningxiang Suyue went to clean up his room first.

"Why are you a little depressed?" After entering the house, the tables, chairs and beds were newly tidied. Su Yue checked around and changed the locations slightly. Then she came to Ningxiang and asked in a low voice.

In her previous life, she only knew that Ningxiang had sprained her ankle, but she didn't know the specific process.

Ningxiang looked at her and said half-truely: "I don't want to enter the mountain. I heard that there are snakes in the mountain..."

This lies was made up, Su Yue couldn't help laughing and hugged her comfortably, "It's okay, I'm not afraid of snakes. Whether it's snakes or wolves, I'm blocking you in front!"

In fact, she could guess it even if Ningxiang didn't say it. It must be Pei Jinghan who touched Ningxiang in the mountains. But this time since Pei Jinghan brought them together, he would not have done anything too outrageous when the three of them walked together in the sun.

Ningxiang got Suyue’s “unintentional” reminder, and even figured it out, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is Miss Suyue here?" A strange voice suddenly came from outside the door, crisp and pleasant, like a girl of their age.

Su Yue and Ningxiang looked at each other and went out first, "Here's here."

When she arrived at the door, she saw a beautiful girl of fifteen or sixteen years old standing under the eaves of the corridor. Her white and clean face, big watery eyes, and beautiful. When she saw Su Yue, she was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't expected that the newly promoted maid from the prince was so beautiful. When Ningxiang walked over, the girl's originally somewhat ostentatious expression couldn't help but restrain her a little, but the corners of her slightly pursed lips showed an indescribable hostility.

"Hello, two sisters. I am Manager Zhang's daughter. My name is Lianhua. I work in the kitchen. The prince is here today. My mother asked me to come over and ask what the prince wants to eat at noon."

Manager Zhang is the head of the house, and his wife is responsible for the kitchen meals.

Su Yue pretended not to see the little thoughts of Lianhua for Pei Jinghan. According to Pei Jinghan's taste, "The prince rushed all the way, just make some light ones, well, make a steamed crucian carp, one..."

"No need, let's go out to get a restaurant at noon."

At the gate of the courtyard, Pei Jinghan walked over with a smile. Today, he was wearing a sky-blue round-neck robe, luxurious and handsome. He smiled at Ningxiang Suyue while walking, "The Yingxianju in this town tastes good, I'll take you to try it."

Su Yue said happily: "That's good, we have a good time again!"

Ningxiang smiled and quietly turned her eyes to Lotus. Seeing that Lotus turned to Pei Jinghan like her previous life, she silently lowered her eyes. Pei Jinghan has always been liked by women. I heard that before her and Su Yue, several big maids sold them because they were jealous of Pei Jinghan. Although Pei Jinghan likes women, she does not like too proactive, especially the maids with big hearts.

This lotus is beautiful enough, but a pity...

"Every time the prince comes and goes to welcome Xianju, shopkeeper Liao is so happy." Lianhua joked with Pei Jinghan familiarly, looking at Pei Jinghan expectantly, hoping that he would go out and ask her to accompany him like last time.

When Pei Jinghan came in, he saw that there was an extra maid in the yard, but until Lianhua turned her face, he recognized her, frowned, and said coldly: "There is nothing to do with you here, let's go down."

Last time he came by himself, and saw that Lianhua was good-looking, he took her out. As a result, the maid was too obvious. Pei Jinghan was not happy and did not let Lianhua serve him at night. This time he was determined to coax Ningxiang Suyue, so how could Lianhua get in the way?

Lianhua stared at the man in front of her in disbelief. Seeing that Pei Jinghan's face became increasingly ugly, she was shocked and left with a white face.

When Pei Jinghan drove away, he regained his smile when he faced the two big maids again.

Su Yue sneered in her heart. If she had been in her previous life, she would have been happy because Pei Jinghan was so happy to others. Now she understands very well that once there will be people who will be more concerned about Pei Jinghan in the future, such as Shen Youyou, who can recite poems, lyrics, and she will be good at dancing. Her fate will be the same as Lotus, and even worse.

"When will the prince set out?" Looking at Lianhua, then looked at Pei Jinghan meaningfully, Su Yue asked in a brisk voice.

Pei Jinghan was itchy at her cunning eyes. After looking at Su Yue for a while, she said, "Let's go now."

He knew that Su Yue was more tactful than Ningxiang. Perhaps Ningxiang could be slow, and it would be good to take Vegetarian Yue first.

He really wanted to not touch a woman for a long time.

After getting on the carriage again, Ningxiang sensitively noticed the change in Pei Jinghan's eyes, and he looked at Su Yue more times.

But Ningxiang did not relax because she was temporarily safe. She was even more afraid that Su Yue could not resist Pei Jinghan's temptation.

What should she do?

Take the initiative to attract Pei Jinghan's attention?

Ningxiang really doesn't know how to do it, she can't do it either.

In a dilemma, Ningxiang didn't even notice it. Suyue pulled her and then came back to her senses. She quietly rectified her skirt, Ningxiang lowered her head and followed Suyue to get off the car. Unexpectedly, she glanced out casually and saw two people walking out of Yingxianju Gate opposite. One of them was tall and upright, smiling like a spring breeze. Isn't it Lu Cheng?

Seeing that he was about to look at the carriage, Ningxiang hurriedly put down the curtain and retreated.

Pei Jinghan didn't expect that she would suddenly retreat, but he was good at seizing the opportunity. He was originally on the left back of Ningxiang, and moved quickly behind Ningxiang and hugged the beauty he was thinking about.

"What's wrong?" He tilted his head and deliberately said to the little girl's ear, feeling the slender and soft waist with his hands freely.

The warm breath fell on the most sensitive ears, Ningxiang blushed and struggled instinctively, "Crown Prince..."

After saying two words, Ningxiang shut up in time and pushed the man behind him silently.

She couldn't explain why, but she just didn't want Lu Cheng to know that she was Pei Jinghan's maid.

Perhaps there were enough villagers who mocked her for serving people, and she didn't want to have one more.

However, just as she was expecting Lu Cheng and his friend to go away, Suyue, Chewai, tried her best to call out naturally because she was worried that Pei Jinghan would do anything wrong, "Ningxiang, what are you doing?"
