Chapter 110: Acting
Wei Wangchu didn't walk for long, and Xia He gently knocked on the door of Yaya's house.
"Miss Cousin, are you up?"
Yaya didn't actually sleep, she had already slept in the carriage in the morning, and she didn't dare to sleep this time, for fear that she wouldn't be able to sleep at night or have nightmares again.
"Well, get up, come in. β
Seeing Xia He walking in with her waist straight, the girl squinted her eyes and asked with a smile, "Is there something wrong with Xia He's sister?"
Xia He hurriedly said that he didn't dare, "I'm going to go to the old lady's yard for dinner in a while, and the slave maid will dress up for you, right?"
Yaya smiled and touched her double bun, "Don't bother you, I've already combed it." β
The ladies of the Xiao family, even the youngest Xiao Xiang'er rarely comb such a naΓ―ve double bun, not to mention Xiao Miao'er, who has already reached the end of the season, and Xiao Shuangshuang, who is about to reach the line.
I heard that Miss Biao will be in time for next spring, and it is understandable that she has no money to buy pearls, so she has to comb her hair with a good hairstyle.
"So, do you want to change your clothes......?
Yaya looked down at the wrinkled muslin shirt and skirt on her body, and then looked at Xia He's body, which was also muslin, but the material on Xia He's body was much better and not easy to wrinkle.
"Hey, the clothes of the fabric, they are easy to wrinkle, thank you Xia and my sister for reminding me, then I'll change it." β
Changed into a rose-red muslin shirt with a goose-yellow pleated skirt.
Bright rose red with bright goose yellow is really a magical color scheme.
In particular, she has darker skin, and wearing this eye-catching and bright color makes her skin even darker and rustic.
Xia He's eyebrows couldn't help twitching twice, wanting to remind her that she had changed, but she didn't know what to say, so she had to let it go.
Yaya pretended not to understand the ridicule in her eyes, and asked lightly: "Have you finished the gifts for your grandmother and uncle?"
Xia He hurriedly took out the gift list and handed it over.
"According to what was written on the gift list, they were all sent over. β
"It's hard work, sister. β
Yaya took a handful of copper coins from the box on the side and handed it to her.
After some concessions, Xia He accepted it half-pushing.
"Sister Xia He, please take Amber to the front yard for dinner, he is young and can't drink, please watch it." β
"Yes, the slave must be looking at the young master with all her heart. β
Xia He took Amber to the front yard, and the two masters and two young masters of the Xiao family held a banquet to entertain Wei Wangchu, and little Amber was just by the way.
Bud Ya went straight to Songheyuan alone.
Only Old Lady Xiao and Second Lady Xiao were there.
"I've seen my grandmother and second aunt. β
The backyard table was specially prepared for her, and it was not much different from the New Year's gifts in previous years.
Mrs. Xiao, that is, Xiao Wuniang, is still ill, so naturally she will not go to the banquet.
Xiao Wen, the eldest son of the big house, has already married a wife, saying that he is the daughter of the Cheng family in Qingtian County.
She didn't come either, thinking she was supposed to be serving her aunt.
What about the daughters of the Xiao family?
This one by one doesn't appear so much that I don't know what the reason is.
"Bud is here, sit down. β
Old Mrs. Xiao had a slight blade in her eyes, carefully observing her squinting granddaughter, and couldn't help but think of what her daughter-in-law said just now, the eldest girl of the fourteenth and fifth five-year, since she came to visit the patient, she didn't even say a word of greeting the patient, it was really no politeness.
"You also know that your aunt is sick and is recuperating in the yard, so she won't come to pick you up today. β
I don't know how Die'er raised her, did she break the jar when she married a farmer?
Yaya seemed to suddenly remember, and hurriedly asked, "Grandmother, is my aunt's illness better?" I didn't dare to rush to visit me all the way, for fear of giving her the dirty things on the road. β
It's also a round past.
Old Madam Xiao nodded slightly, "Your eldest aunt is a perennial problem, it's not a big problem, it doesn't matter, you think about her, just go to see her directly, she sees you and is happy." β
Yaya nodded in response, "The eldest cousin is serving the sick, right? From tomorrow, I will also help one or two." β
"Your eldest cousin and sister-in-law are considerate and very fond of your eldest aunt, so she often asks her to accompany her. If you have this heart, you should leave the matter of serving the sick to your eldest cousin, she has done a good job. β
The buds are hehe.
Mrs. Xiao's father is currently the deputy envoy of the Hezhou pacification envoy, although he has no real power, he is an official from the sixth grade.
Xiao Wen's daughter-in-law, Xiao Wang's father, was Qingtian County Cheng at the time, and he was barely an official from the eighth grade. Speaking of which, not to mention the low official position, and the family has no financial resources, it really can't help Xiao Wen who wants to enter politics.
It's no wonder that Mrs. Xiao is satisfied.
This family affair was in a hurry, and it made Bud Bud not understand.
Xiao's second wife, Wang, seemed to think of something, "By the way, Yaya, you haven't seen your eldest cousin yet, right? She is the concubine of our Qingtian County County, my niece who was married to my mother, she has received a good upbringing, she takes good care of your eldest cousin, and she takes care of her mother-in-law carefully, she is a very good person." I'll be introduced to you tomorrow. β
Bud Ya smiled and nodded.
Oh, so there is still this relationship.
Let Xiao Ping'er, the second daughter-in-law, marry Zhou Xuexue as his stepwife, and exchange the name of Xiao Wen in the big house.
I have to give people some sweetness in the second room.
It turned out that Xiao Wen was married to the niece of the second room's mother's family. Big Wang's, Little Wang's, hehe, I see.
"Since she is the niece of the second uncle's family, she must not be wrong. β
Ya Ya glanced at the braised elbow beside her, and smiled harmlessly, "I'm going to ask my cousin for a good time tomorrow." β
Old Madam Xiao lowered her eyelids and didn't look at the soil buns from the countryside, "Well, let's eat, the dishes are cold." β
Yaya smiled and glanced at the big elbow again, and asked softly, "Sister Miao'er, Sister Shuangshuang and Sister Xiang'er haven't come yet, why don't we wait for them?"
The two of them all got together and said bad things about her, why didn't they come to see her jokes?
She deliberately wore dirty clothes, waiting for them to laugh.
"They, a bunch of greedy girls, don't know if they ate the wrong thing, and suddenly they have a rash, especially on their faces, which are red, and they can't see anyone for a while. β
Wei Wangchu's blinking appearance flashed in front of his eyes.
Bud Ya could almost conclude that it had something to do with him.
Phew, nosy!
Without those girls, how can some dramas be sung?
The loss in the girl's eyes was obvious, and Second Lady Xiao smiled and patted her hand, "It's okay, isn't there Doctor Wei?" If Ming'er is not well, please ask Doctor Wei to show them, and they will be able to play with you soon." β
comforted here, turned his head and went back and said to Xiao Erye, "That local bun in Yaya wants to play with our girls, and I can't see that these girls in our family don't want to play with her, and I just like to see her make jokes." β
Yaya smiled with relief, "Yes, Dr. Wei is very powerful, and I also see a doctor at his place." β
"Well, let's eat. β
The two ladies ate slowly, eating like feeding rabbits, picking up green ones to eat, and eating very little.
The bud bud was like a wind and clouds, and in an instant, he ate most of the elbow beside him.
also said vaguely: "Grandmother, second aunt, this is delicious, you eat more of this." β
Old Madam Xiao hid the disdain in her eyes, swallowed the last bite of green vegetables in her mouth, and put down her chopsticks.
Only then did he look at Yaya and said, "If it's delicious, you can eat more, my grandmother is old, but I can't eat this greasy." β
This dish was deliberately placed in front of the sprouts to test her, and sure enough, it couldn't be on the big scene.
When I see the meat, my eyes shine, and I don't have the slightest image of a lady when I eat it, and I eat it happily, which is more bold than a man.
It's rare for farmers to see meat, but no matter how greedy they are, it's too embarrassing.
Second Mrs. Xiao couldn't help laughing, slowly put away the chopsticks, and watched her eat with the old lady.
The dishes on the table were gone, and the sprouts finally laughed, took out a handkerchief with oil points, wiped their mouths, and said that they were full.
The old lady watched her carefully, and her heart moved.
He smiled lightly and said, "Do you still want to eat some fruit snacks?"
Yaya hurriedly waved her hand, "No need, no need, today's food is so delicious, I am very full, I can not eat tomorrow." β
It's really unproductive.
Where is the food delicious, it is obviously the meat that is delicious, and the meat is specially selected to eat.
The old lady turned her head and instructed the girl, "Okay, let's get out, put some hawthorn water." β
After speaking, he looked at the buds with a shallow smile, "Drink some hawthorn water to help digestion, in our Xiao family, there is meat to eat, and you can eat." β
Yaya nodded, smiling with a satisfied face, but she wanted to cry in her heart, do you want to continue to pretend like this tomorrow?
I'm going to vomit!
The old lady smiled: "Speaking of which, the girls of our Xiao family have to go to school every day, Yaya, do you have any school at home?"
Zhou Zhiyuan, the third brother of the Zhou family, is the master, and he must have learned something.
"Yes, my third uncle is the master, and he recognized a few words when he was a child, and now he occasionally goes to a private school, so he reads the book to pass the time. β
Reading the book?
"Can you learn to choose words and make poems?"
"No, the third uncle said, the woman knows a few words, not just be blind. β
Second Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but smile and asked, "Can you write?"
"I know a little, I haven't practiced before. β
"Have you ever learned to draw?"
"Is it worth drawing an embroidery sample?"
The two ladies are choked, such a big girl can only draw an embroidery pattern?
"Have you ever learned any musical instrument?"
"No, we don't have any musical instruments at home. β
Bud Ya has a cute face, and with a slightly dark face, she looks like a peasant girl.
Old Madam Xiao smiled, "Then presumably you don't know how to play chess?"
"No, it won't. β
Bud Ya replied dryly.
Second Mrs. Xiao said with a smile: "Our Xiao family has invited a few gentlemen, Mr. Zhuang is responsible for teaching the girls to read, the Mo family is responsible for teaching piano and dancing, and the Su family is responsible for teaching embroidery. β
Ya Ya's brow couldn't help but jump.
What's the matter, it's time to start training her?
"I'm a stranger, but I've never heard of these people. β
The girl smiled, "Moreover, I have to be treated for my eye disease every day, so I really regret that I can't study with my sisters and sisters." β
"I've already asked Dr. Wei about this, he needs an hour every day to see you. β
The old lady looked at the buds with blazing eyes, "Our Xiao family's women's hall is not open all day, one morning is enough, after lunch, the girls want to take a rest and recuperate, and there is not much time left in the afternoon, just get up and practice by yourself." β
Ya Ya's heart sank.
"At this time, you can find Dr. Wei for treatment. β
Second Mrs. Xiao's eyes were also burning, "I heard that Dr. Wei has to give you acupuncture and fumigation every day, I thought we might as well discuss it with Dr. Wei and see if we can pass on the means of treating you to our Xiao family's medical woman?
Want to learn Wei Wangchu's acupuncture?
Ya Ya's face was faint, and she sneered in her heart.
