Chapter 496: White Eyes
For Tian Kuo's decision, Xia Zhi is very appreciative. Tian Kuo was just evasive like that before, and he looked very weak.
He Bing'er's matter, Tian Kuo's relationship, should have a beginning and an end. This is the principle of Xia Zhi's life and work, and she will also inadvertently use it to measure the people around her.
On the way back to Fucheng, Xia Zhi quietly asked Li Xia: "Are you persuading Tian Kuo to come?" ”
"I didn't persuade him." Li Xia replied. Tian Kuo understands the things that should be understood, Li Xia and Tian Kuo usually have such a relationship, and there is no more to say at this time.
Moreover, what Tian Kuo needs now is not someone to persuade him. What he needs is to figure it out for himself.
"Actually, when you think about it, some things are really hard to say." Xia Zhi suddenly remembered the first time she and Li Xia met. At that time, she thought that Li Xia was a second-year teenager who was deeply in love, and Tian Kuo was the winner in that love field.
But who would have thought that it was the suave Tian Kuo who was finally hurt by love.
Back in Fucheng, Li Xia sent Tian Kuo back to Tianfu, and Xia Zhi and Xia Qiao took Xiao Heiyuer and Xiao Shu'er back to Ninghua Hall.
Knowing that she was back, Yueya took leave in front of Mrs. Jiugu, and came to Ninghuatang after dinner.
"I miss you." The crescent moon saw the summer solstice, and it can be said that she was overjoyed.
On the summer solstice, they returned to Daxingzhuang, she was not close to Xia Xiucai, Tian and Erya, and she was looking forward to their return on the summer solstice almost every day.
Yue'er sat down, and everyone first talked about many things about the Xia family. Then the summer solstice mentioned Tian Kuo.
"Young Master Tian Kuo is back today! We big guys were taken aback. We thought it would take a month or two for Young Master Tian Kuo to come back. …… At least I have to wait for Miss He Bing'er to leave......"
He Bing'er wanted to marry someone else, and Tian Kuo's performance at that time could be said to be very scary. He came back a few days after he hid, and the girls in Tianfu talked a lot and said everything.
“…… The person who usually looks at the mouth is still an amorous seed. This must have been reluctant to Miss He Bing'er, so she rushed back to send Miss He Bing'er. ”
Many girls think so in private. Tian Kuo can't marry the person he likes, and the reason why he avoids it is because he is afraid of being sad, and if he looks at He Bing'er more, he will hurt a little more. However, Tian Kuo would rather be injured than come back to send He Bing'er, how affectionate this is.
The eyes were also red when the crescent moon relayed these words, and it was obvious that she was also infected.
Tian Kuo was actually abandoned by He Bing'er. However, this not only did not affect his image in the eyes of girls at all, but instead covered him with a halo of love saints!
Xia Solstice decided not to say anything about the matter. She just asked Yueya about He Bing'er and asked He Bing'er how she was feeling these days.
Speaking of He Bing'er, Yue'er's expression was a little cold. She told Xia Zhi that after He Bing'er received her father's letter, she immediately cried and went to find Master Tian and Mrs. Tian, and said that she could not resist her father's decision because of the filial piety of her children.
These days, He Bing'er is also very low-key.
He Bing'er is not low-key, because almost everyone has seen through her thoughts.
Jiu Gu was suspicious of me in private, she should have known about this for a long time, and nodded. That letter, that letter was written to our eldest lady and eldest lady. She cries and cries, and she is also acting for people to see. If she really wants to, as long as she says it, our eldest lord and eldest lady can call the shots......"
"The Tian family married her as a daughter-in-law, but they didn't plan to borrow her family's power. It's just that she is an orphan girl, she grew up in the Tian family and the Li family since she was a child, and the Tian family married her, and she can't suffer a loss in her life. But who would have thought that she was such a big-hearted white-eyed wolf......"
The crescent moon is generous, even if there is something in the heart, she can't say anything particularly powerful. These are the original words of Mrs. Jiugu.
Because of her early marriage, Mrs. Jiugu spent a shallow time with He Bing'er, and her feelings for He Bing'er were mostly looking at her deceased sister. Now that Mrs. Jiugu is saying such things behind her back, you can guess what the rest of the Li family and the Tian family think.
Of course, those people are afraid of feelings, no matter what they think in their hearts, they should not say it like this.
"The eldest lady has already ordered it down, saying that Miss He Bing'er is about to leave, and it is estimated that she will not come again in this life. The eldest lady instructed the people who served that no one should treat Miss He Bing'er slowly......"
The Tian family raised He Bing'er, He Bing'er was ungrateful, but the Tian family wanted to start and finish well.
This is the generosity of the Tian family and the long-term vision.
Xia Zhi nodded secretly. It is not for nothing that the Li and Tian families of Beizhen Mansion have prospered from generation to generation.
The crescent moon rested with the summer solstice that night.
On the summer solstice, they came back just in time, because He Bing'er was about to get up and go to the capital the next day. Her marriage date with Shang Shugongzi is set for August in the golden autumn.
Counting the days to be spent on the road, He Bing'er didn't have a few days to prepare the dowry. However, since the He family has the idea of relying on women to cling, they should not deduct He Bing'er from the dowry.
Early in the morning, Li Xia came to Ninghua Hall.
Xia Zhi asked Li Xia strangely: "Why don't you send He Bing'er?" ”
"I'm going to send it. My mother went first, and I told my mother to go to the academy first, and then go over,......" Li Xia replied.
"Oh, won't Li Shanchang go?"
"My dad won't send her. She'd said goodbye to the big guy before. My mother is going, after all, I watched her grow up, and when I looked at her, I thought about the third aunt who died early. …… I don't think we'll see each other again......"
Mrs. Tian's mood should also be more complicated. But for the child she grew up watching, she had to give her face. Of course, half of this is the love for their own sisters.
"I'm going to see Jiugu today." Xia Zhi said to Li Xia.
"Then let's go over together." Li Xia said.
Xia Zhi thought about it, she should be in time to see everyone off He Bing'er now. But that shouldn't get in the way.
At this time, Xia Qiao sent Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Heiyu'er back to school.
"Brother, you pack up, send our sister back with me, and see Aunt Jiu again." Xia Zhi said to Xia Qiao.
Xia Qiao immediately agreed.
The brothers and sisters packed up Qi Chu, brought the native products for Mrs. Jiugu, and went to Tianfu with Li Xia.
When they arrived outside the gate of Tianfu, they saw a motorized carriage. That should be He Bing'er's convoy into Beijing.
The He family sent someone to pick up He Bing'er, and the Tian family would also send someone to escort him.
After entering Tian's mansion, Li Xia went to find Mrs. Tian, and Xia Zhi, Crescent Moon and Xia Qiao went straight to Mrs. Jiugu's courtyard.
Mrs. Jiugu was about to go out.
"You're here? Come with me. Mrs. Jiugu stepped forward and grabbed Xia Zhi's hand.
"Where are you going, Aunt Jiu?" Xia Solstice asked.
"Bing'er is leaving, you go with me to see her off." Mrs. Jiugu said.
"Oh, okay then." Xia Zhi did not hesitate and immediately agreed. She and He Bing'er can be regarded as acquaintances, and Mrs. Jiugu said so, looking at Mrs. Jiugu's face, she should also go.
On the way, Mrs. Jiugu asked Xia Zhi: "Sixteen, you know everything, right?" ”
"I know the whole thing." The summer solstice said.
"Hey, what about this person, he knows people and faces, but he doesn't know his heart. Pity my eldest brother and sister-in-law for her heart, and pity my stupid nephew......"
Tian Kuo was called a stupid nephew, and such a title really doesn't match Tian Kuo's suave image.
However, in the relationship with He Bing'er, Tian Kuo is indeed stupid. A teenager in love, who can be truly rational and sober.
They were soon in the antechamber. Before entering the door, Xia Zhi heard He Bing'er's sobbing voice.
Mrs. Jiugu also heard it, and then she frowned.
"Jiugu ......" Xia Zhi reminded Jiugu. Judging from the words relayed by Yue'er yesterday, Jiu Gu was quite dissatisfied with He Bing'er, and she shouldn't care about expressing this dissatisfaction.
However, both the eldest lord of the Tian family and the eldest lady of the Tian family worked hard to create a harmonious atmosphere, and it was best for the ninth aunt not to say anything.
Everyone knows it, so why bother to say it and look bad on the face.
Jiu Gu glanced at Xia Zhi, she understood what Xia Zhi meant, so she snorted softly: "I am measured." That girl is used to letting the big guys get used to it. ”
The meaning and tone of this speech did not reassure Xia Zhi at all.
Xia Zhi followed Mrs. Jiugu into the door.
There were not many people sitting in the hall, only the eldest lady of the Tian family, Mrs. Tian, and then Tian Kuo and Li Xia.
He Bing'er knelt in front of Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian, and was crying with her head down, while gently wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
"I really can't bear my aunt, my aunt ......, so my aunt and aunt will leave me......"
Listening to He Bing'er talk like this, if he didn't know the inside story, he was afraid that he would have to think that He Bing'er was really unwilling to leave and unwilling to marry that Shangshu Gongzi.
Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian both had warm smiles on their faces, but their smiles were not warm enough.
Mrs. Tian helped He Bing'er with her own hands: "Isn't what you kid said stupidly?" You~ Mother is gone, we are afraid that you will not be well taken care of, so we will take you to raise you. You are a girl from the He family, and you should naturally listen to your father's words. If we keep you, won't you be accused of unfilial piety?! ”
"Bing'er, if you really want to stay, then we will keep you. See if your father dares to come and ask for someone. It's just that if you are duplicitous now, and if you really leave you, you will cry. Mrs. Jiugu stepped forward and looked at He Bing'er with a smile and said.
Mrs. Tian glanced at her sister-in-law quickly. There was a lot of meaning in that look. Xia Zhi saw at once that the eldest lady of the Tian family was not angry at all for Mrs. Jiugu talking like this.
In fact, maybe the eldest wife of the Tian family is happy in her heart. Mrs. Jiugu said what she couldn't say.
Mrs. Tian also glanced at Mrs. Jiugu, and seemed to disagree with Mrs. Jiugu's words. She also expressed her disapproval.
"How old are you, and you're an elder, and you're still so frizzy."
It turned out that Mrs. Tian did not agree with Mrs. Jiugu's way of speaking.
He Bing'er had already blushed when Mrs. Jiugu said those words. She is a smart and clear person, and she should have understood the meaning of Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian immediately, and her face was almost a little purple.
He Bing'er did not respond to Mrs. Jiugu's words. Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian didn't say much.
The eldest wife of the Tian family told He Bing'er to pay attention to her body after she went back.
"The capital is a good place, and it is more prosperous than Beizhenfu, not to mention, even the climate is much better than here. After all, we are a bitter cold place, and we have wronged you all these years. From now on, you will live a good life, and we can rest assured that we will be able to see your mother under the Nine Springs in the future. ”
Mrs. Tian echoed and said similar things.
He Bing'er lowered her head and listened, but she didn't dare to say anything more that she was willing to stay.
However, she still had to say goodbye to Mrs. Jiugu.
"Jiugu, take care. I know that Jiugu may ...... I'm not that kind of person, I'm really ......" Ai Ai, I want to talk and stop, it's very pitiful for me.
Mrs. Jiugu was impatient, she originally wanted to expose He Bing'er, but she was stopped by Mrs. Tian with her eyes.
That's enough.
People like them, people like them, don't need to say anything more at all.
Although Mrs. Jiugu was not very willing, she did not say anything to embarrass He Bing'er. "Bing'er, you can do it yourself."
"Thank you, Aunt Jiu." He Bing'er saluted Mrs. Jiugu and got up, and then seemed to see the summer solstice.
"Miss Bing'er, I'll see you off too. Have a nice trip. Xia Zhi politely spoke to He Bing'er.
"I didn't expect the summer solstice girl to rush back to see me off." The smile on He Bing'er's face became weird.
Xia Solstice didn't come to send He Bing'er on purpose. If it were someone else, if it was another occasion, Xia Solstice might have recognized this empty favor. But in this situation, facing He Bing'er, Xia Zhi didn't want to recognize this favor.
But without waiting for Xia Zhi to say anything, He Bing'er had already stepped forward and held Xia Zhi's hand.
The two men were almost close together.
It's actually common for close little sisters to do this, but the friendship between Xia Zhi and He Bing'er is not so good.
He Bing'er had already approached Xia Zhi's ear, and her low voice was like a poisonous tongue: "I know what you're thinking." You come to see my jokes. I can't marry Li Xia, even if I leave, you still don't want to think about it. But the person I marry must be more powerful than Li Xia! ”
He Bing'er still had a smile on her face, as if she was just talking to Xia Zhi about her sisters.
Xia Zhi really didn't expect He Bing'er to have such a parting message to her.
He Bing'er is just a passer-by in her life, and she doesn't matter at all, she won't bother with He Bing'er. But apparently she is not like this with He Bing'er.
After He Bing'er finished speaking, she let go of Xia Zhi's hand, and the smile on her face carried the malice of victory.
Although marrying Li Xia has never been Xia Zhi's ideal, she has never thought about any high power. But she still replied to He Bing'er with a smile.
"We'll see."
Xia Zhi's expression was so confident, and the smile on He Bing'er's face froze suddenly.
