Chapter 69 Coming from afar, a gift (1)

Inside the main house of Dongyuan Pavilion.

It was rare for Shangguan Xuanyu to sit high on the main seat. She held a cup of tea in her hand and casually sipped it.

Jing Fan waited attentively on the side, and glanced at today's master from time to time, she was unusually quiet, and her whole person seemed demure and graceful.

Since returning from Ruixue Pavilion, Shangguan Xuanyu has been sitting quietly with tea and pastries, chatting a few words with Jingfan from time to time, obviously carelessly thinking in her heart, what is the intention of the second lady's pointing?
But she couldn't figure it out all the time. Although the second wife never challenged her too much, she also knew that she didn't want to see her, but because of their identities, they could only meet politely and without disputes on the surface. Everyone understood Xuan, making a consensus not to offend each other.

She was vaguely uneasy, and always felt that the second lady's angry fingers must have ulterior motives, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong. Apart from feeling that she paid too much attention to herself, whether she was favored seemed to have nothing to do with her, and more There will be no suspicion of competing for favor.

The only possibility is that the Second Madam has done something to destroy her relationship with the Eldest Young Master, otherwise the Second Madam and the Young Madam will definitely not have any serious ties, and she is reminding herself now, when Shangguan Xuanyu thought of this possibility, There is a serious look in the bottom of the eyes, it seems that we still can't take it lightly, so as not to let the second lady take advantage of others.

"Master, Qiaoyu is back." Aunt Jingfan's reminder brought Shangguan Xuanyu back to her senses. She raised her eyes and watched Qiaoyu enter the hall slowly. She looked anxiously at the figure behind her, until that When the tall and familiar figure followed behind, his beautiful little face suddenly smiled, and he put down his teacup eagerly, stood up and walked forward slowly.

Qiaoyu stepped forward slowly, stopped in front of her, and saluted respectfully, "I have seen the young lady." Her eyes fixed on the master who was slightly out of control, and she cautiously reminded, "Ma'am, Mr. Geng from the Shangguan family is asking to see you."

After hearing Qiaoyu's words, Shangguan Xuanyu felt a little lost, raised her hand and said to some maidservants beside her, "You all step back first."

It wasn't until the maids and servants left the main room that Qiaoyu stepped back to let the people behind her show up. Shangguan Xuanyu also stood up quickly at this time, her clear face was slightly nervous, but her eyes were faintly revealing. The color of excitement.

When the tall and straight body and the resolute and handsome face were as familiar as a sculpture, Shangguan Xuanyu shouted excitedly, "Brother Shaohui, you are finally here." The joy on his face could no longer be concealed.

The expression on Geng Shaohui's face was silent, without any hint of joy or abnormality, he stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Geng Shaohui has met the young lady." He was respectful and polite, without any warm expression.

Seeing him like this, Shangguan Xuanyu had a flash of embarrassment on her face, but she didn't dare to neglect, and quickly said softly, "Mr. Geng is polite." After speaking, she began to look around him, feeling amazed in her heart , It has been the same for ten years, and this temper has not progressed or changed at all.

"Thank you, madam." After thanking you, Geng Shaohui slowly raised his eyes to meet Shangguan Xuanyu who was sizing him up. He looked respectful and cautious, but when he saw the young lady sizing him up thoughtfully, his eyes narrowed , a cold light projected on Shangguan Xuanyu.

Shangguan Xuanyu quickly looked away, trying to cover up her behavior just now, seeing that Qiaoyu and Aunt Jingfan had already prepared tea and put it on the tea table, she cleared her voice, "Brother Geng, please sit down."

"Mrs. Xie." Geng Shaohui replied without saying a word, and then sat down on the chair beside him without any excuses.
