2-221 Late wind
Shi Luoxue gently rubbed her fingertips and stopped, her eyelids opened slightly, her eyes were not alarmed, and she quietly looked at Qiao'er who was gradually smiling, and didn't say anything. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Miss, why are you ......" Qiao'er asked in confusion, hesitant and restrained.
"Nothing. I just think that Sister Qiao'er is getting better and better-looking, and Xue'er will definitely point you to a good family in the future. The corners of Shi Luoxue's mouth were raised, and her apricot eyes were crooked, like an innocent child who didn't know anything about the world.
"Miss!" cried Qiao'er in embarrassment, "what do you say!"
The two of them giggled and played, and the laughter of the girls was as crisp as a jade bell in the spring wind, echoing in the sky of the long street for a long time.
The laughter of the girls drifted through the trees, over the eaves, over the stamens, and finally came to an abrupt end in a thick and dignified fiery red.
Shi Luoxue's originally smiling gaze fell on the dozens of dark red boxes that extended from the hall to the courtyard, and after a pause, the smile froze.
The dozens of boxes are of different shapes, but they should be newly made, every inch is still shining with fresh red lacquer, the boxes are pasted with festive double happiness, and the handles are tied with bright red satin, all of which are tied into the shape of beautiful and festive peonies.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Qiao'er followed her line of sight and saw that a dozen servants over there were hurriedly registering and moving things under the command of the steward, and they didn't notice the two of them at all. She looked at the regulation and quantity of the boxes and suddenly panicked, smiled reluctantly, and prevaricated: "What kind of thing is this that someone wants to get married and put it indiscriminately, I will ask someone to move it away ......and throw it away."
"It's fine. Shi Luoxue couldn't hide the anger and panic in her eyes, but she just took a deep breath to stop Qiao'er's movements, shook her head, and told her to retreat.
"Miss!" Qiao'er said worriedly, unable to bear to let her face it herself, ""
"I'll handle it myself. Shi Luoxue walked past the dozens of boxes and stepped into the hall. Unlike the lively red outside the hall, there is a cold atmosphere of secrecy and solemnity.
As soon as Shi Luoxue entered, he saw three people sitting on the seats in the living room, Shi Hao, the old lady of Shi Mansion, was sitting on it, his face was unhappy, he seemed to be still angry, and his chest was still full of ups and downs; the two people sitting in the guest seat were an old man and a young man, the old one was not old, but about forty years old, the middle-aged man always had a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, but his demeanor was upright, probably an official in the court, Shi Luoxue felt that his face was very raw; the young one was fair-skinned, but unfortunately he had a pair of slightly hanging triangular eyes, at this time he squinted his eyes slightly, and glanced at Shi Hao on the seat with a smile, which was Shi Luoxue's Wen Lixin who was afraid to avoid。
"Grandpa, are there guests coming?" Shi Luoxue pretended not to know, and as soon as she entered the door, she was surprised, and when she saw the two guests, she pursed her lips and saluted with her armrest, "The little girl has seen Master Wen, Master Wen." ”
The embarrassing atmosphere was melted a little, Wen Li's smile dissipated, and he looked at Shi Luoxue with full eyes, and said flatteringly: "You're welcome, I haven't seen you for a few days, Xue'er is getting longer and more beautiful." ”
Shi Luoxue smiled reluctantly, but replied politely: "I thought that next month's big exam, Wen Gongzi must be very busy, I never thought that I could come to the door as a guest, it was really unexpected." ”
"Where is it, to be honest, the number of people in the Wei State Examination is getting smaller and smaller this year, and after all, it is a decay of qi, and it is not as popular as the screening of Qi and Southern Chu Temple. Now I'm just trying my hand at the Wei State Exam, and I must be in the top three, besides, I may be a guest of honor in the court of Qi this autumn, and in a year, maybe Sister Xue'er will see me again, and I will already be a member of the temple of Chu State!"
His words were intoxicating, as if he had already stood on the altar of the temple and worshipped by the first ten thousand people, but it made the listeners feel displeased, and the expressions on his faces were very wonderful.
Wei Guo's status in this year's big exam is really embarrassing, Wen Lixin is right, but if he says these words in front of the two courtiers and elders, it will be too inappropriate, and it will seem that he is arrogant and exaggerated, with a proud villain face.
Golden Jade Outside...... A trace of impatience crossed Shi Luoxue's eyes, but there was a slight smile on her face, and she did not refute Wen Lixin's intoxicating words. She knew that even if she refuted herself, in Wen Lixin's heart, he must be invincible and powerful, and he couldn't listen to the persuasion of others at all.
It's hard for others to speak, but his parents can't listen to it.
Wen Xu coughed quietly, as if his throat was uncomfortable, Wen Lixin was full of spring breeze, and when he heard the sound, he was a little reluctant to stop it, but those eyes were still staring at Shi Luoxue's white skin, crossing every inch of clothes and sideburns, and the color of greed was fully revealed.
Seeing this situation, Shi Hao naturally knew Wen Lixin's plan, even if his face was gloomy, it was not easy to attack, but he said coldly: "I discussed important matters with the two guests, nothing to do with you, hurry back to your own house." ”
Shi Luoxue's gaze drooped slightly, falling on the wet water stains in front of Wen Xu, and glanced up at the hands of the three of them, and only said, "Yes, grandpa." ”
"Eh, Master Shi, this is not interesting enough, it is clearly something related to Xue'er, even if she stays. Wen Xu said with a smile. Wen Lixin nodded yes, and reached out to touch the tea cup next to his hand, but he felt empty. He seemed to remember something, turned his head and said politely to Shi Hao: "If the adult is really sincere, then it doesn't hurt for Xue'er to stay." It's too late, and if Cher is here at this time, then things will be decided. ”
opened her mouth and closed her mouth, Shi Luoxue pretended to be puzzled, but in her heart, she was like a mirror, it must be related to the pile of dowry outside the door. Shi Hao was helpless, and when he saw her, he didn't move, so he had to ask her to sit down. After a while, the little maid entered with a new teacup, replaced the herbal tea next to Shi Hao and Wen Xu, and replaced it with three cups of hot new tea.
Shi Luoxue's gaze fell on the puddle of water again, wondering if what had happened inside this door before she came in, what was the matter that made Wen Lixin dare to smash the teacup in front of his grandfather.
Sure enough, after not more than three sentences, Wen Xu turned the conversation to the pile of dowry again, and after a few polite words, he mentioned the dowry, and after a few sips of tea, he had to agree on the wedding date.
Shi Hao's face became more and more ugly, but he didn't say anything, just listened quietly, and didn't seem to object. Shi Luoxue, who was below, quietly sipped her tea, and took a deep breath quietly to calm down her disordered breathing as soon as possible, but in her heart, she was really disgusted by the performance of the three people present, and she could even be said to be disgusted.
"Xue'er, look, what else do we need to add?" Wen Li looked at her with a gentle face, and his voice was doting.
Shi Luoxue's eyes darkened, and she gently put aside the tea cup in her hand and looked up at the three people in front of her.
