As for Hong Fang, after hearing her words, she thought for a long time and came up with a plan.
When it was time to light the lamp, Ding Xilan had already had dinner, and specially brought some cakes made by herself to Nanyuan. At this time, she knew that Liu Rushuang should be the only one in Nanyuan, because Lei Ao and Yu Yueniang
He hasn't returned to Lei Mansion yet, he is probably on the road.
This is an excellent time.
When she arrived at the east wing of Nanyuan, she knocked on the door and said, "Sanniang, are you asleep? I'm Xilan."
After a while, Liu Rushuang's personal maid came to open the door. Sure enough, Liu Rushuang was sitting alone and working as a hostess. When she saw Ding Xilan come in, she hurriedly put down her work and worked with her.
"Xilan, you are serious. Why are you coming here so late? It's tiring to go back and forth. You could have gone back to rest first. It won't be too late to come back and see Sanniang tomorrow."
Ding Xilan was accustomed to Liu Rushuang's politeness, "Sanniang, it's nothing. I originally wanted to come here with Shaoyang, but I didn't expect that I was pestered by grandma and had to come over at night. Shaoyang should have already arrived.
Is it over? I didn’t see him even when I went back, and I don’t know where he went.”
"He, don't worry, he should be back now. He said he wanted to go out for a walk in the morning. According to my estimation, he must have gone to find those young men." Liu Rushuang smiled, glanced at the snacks on the side, and said, "This
yes?"
"I made this myself, Sanniang, do you want to try it?"
Liu Rushuang tried a small piece and nodded in praise: "Well, it's really good, sweet but not greasy. Xilan is really good at her craftsmanship. Shaoyang is really lucky to be able to marry you."
Having said that, Liu Rushuang paid special attention to Ding Xilan's reaction, but she just smiled without a trace of embarrassment on her face. "Sanniang told me, how can I be so good?"
Liu Rushuang didn't want to argue with her at all. She just used it to observe Ding Xilan's expression in order to get a glimpse of the extent of her emotional relationship with Shaoyang.
"Haha. It's a good thing for a girl to be modest, but don't be too modest." Liu Rushuang laughed, "By the way, I'm going home to visit relatives this time. Will Shaoyang take care of you along the way?"
Thinking of Lei Shaoyang's abnormal behavior and the situation they got along with some time ago, Ding Xilan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and didn't say anything for a long time. Liu Rushuang thought she was being shy, so she winked at the maid and said, "You
Go down first, you don’t need to wait here anymore.”
The maid bowed respectfully before going down.
"Okay, now there are no outsiders here. If you have anything to say, you can probably tell Sanniang, right?"
Seeing Liu Rushuang's "kindness", Ding Xilan couldn't even think about saying anything. However, she didn't know how to say it. After all, the relationship between her and Lei Shaoyang could not be explained clearly in a few words, so she could only murmur:
"……not bad."
"That's good." Liu Rushuang still had a smile on her face, "This kid has always been like a child who hasn't grown up. I'm worried that he doesn't know how to pity people. It seems that I am worrying too much."
Ding Xilan didn't want to talk too much about the things between them, but she didn't know that Liu Rushuang had already known the relationship between her and Lei Shaoyang. After a brief pause, she changed the topic and said: "Sanniang, what are we doing this time?"
I came home and met a very special person."
"oh?"
"She said she knows you, Sanniang, and is an old friend of yours." Ding Xilan talked about the topic and guided her to the things she was concerned about, while observing Liu Rushuang's reaction.
"This makes me curious." Liu Rushuang couldn't help but smile, "I rarely go out of my house. If I have any old friends or friends, they are only in Suzhou and basically none in other places. Maybe they are mistaken.
.”
Indeed, Liu Rushuang has rarely been out of Suzhou City since she married Lei Ao. Her former friends were just using each other and had no real feelings at all. After a long time, how can you remember who you are?
"No." Ding Xilan looked directly into Liu Rushuang's eyes, because a person's eyes are the most honest. Once he lies, his eyes will automatically expose the lie, "She said her name is Xiaoying, Sanniang
You must know that."
Boom. After hearing this name, Liu Rushuang's previously leisurely and happy expression subsided unconsciously. After a moment, she smiled again and said: "In my memory, there is no such person. I think
They are probably trying to build relationships, so don't take it to heart."
At this point, Ding Xilan knew that if she didn't make it clear, Liu Rushuang would keep pretending to be stupid with her, and she didn't want to go on like this. "Sanniang, you know her. Because, she also told me that a woman has been buried for a long time.
And an unknown secret.”
Liu Rushuang's expression was stunned for a moment, impossible, impossible. "Really? What kind of secret is that?"
It couldn't be such a coincidence, and it was impossible for her to meet Xiaoying. Moreover, given the relationship between Xiaoying and herself, she would definitely not disclose this matter to a third party casually.
"This starts from ten years ago."
As soon as Ding Xilan finished speaking, Liu Rushuang showed a shocked expression even though she was hiding it again. Even though it was only for a moment, Ding Xilan saw all of this.
