Chapter 030: You've Grown Taller
She instructed Mama Liu to wrap the branches, while bending down to splash water and clean her hands in the copper basin under the door. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Fraudulently decorating other people's money and decorating your own faΓ§ade, you are amazing!"
Here I was wiping my hands, and I heard an irrepressible sound outside the door.
When I looked back, I saw Shen Xin standing there with Qiu Toad Xia Ying with a cold face.
Shen Xi raised his lips and continued to dry his hands, then turned around and took the fan handed by Aunt Pei, and said, "The eldest girl said that she laughed." The girl cherishes me and sends me money to keep the house, this is your wisdom, I don't dare to take credit. β
He shook his fan and looked at her: "If the big girl doesn't dislike it, do you want to come in and eat a cup of coarse tea?"
Shen Xin punched in the pile of cotton, only glaring angrily, where is there still an angry answer?
She originally heard that Lin Pei and Shen Di were coming to the west across the courtyard, and they looked all the way, only to see that there were talking and laughing on the side of Lixiangyuan, and she couldn't help but come over to take a look.
As a result, I saw that the dilapidated courtyard had changed in the past, seedlings were planted in the front yard, and there seemed to be a lot of movement in the inner yard.
And the dilapidated places have been simply repaired, looking clean and plain, the anger in my heart can't help but jump up!
This yard was picked up by her like this, and it was already a good look, and she would treat people and guests in the future, and she would not be embarrassed and shabby.
When she blackmailed her for money, she had a premeditated plan, and her long room made a wedding dress for her second room!
But now she doesn't dare to attack, the handle is in her hands, and she is not the one who suffers if she falls out.
Shen Xi didn't plan to conflict with her, and when he saw that she didn't answer, he moved and planned to go back to the house.
Before he could turn around, a voice came from behind him: "Sister Xi." β
Under the apricot blossom tree in the patio outside the door, a person walked in the place where the flower branches were opened.
Under his royal blue robe hung dripping jade, white apricot blossoms and pink peach blossoms fell on his shoulders and black hair.
Under the petals is a face like a breeze and a bright moon, the slightly plump lips are talking, but the eyes fall on the raised flower branches, and when the hand falls, the person has already stepped forward.
A pair of palms clapping the flowers on both arms are also the unique white and plump of the children of large families.
"Brother Pei!"
Shen Xin immediately changed his expression and became intimate and gentle.
Lin Pei didn't look at her, but looked directly at Shen Xi standing inside the door.
His eyes stayed on her for a moment, and the clarity in his eyebrows and eyes instantly warmed: "Long time no see." β
Shen Xi had seen many children of the Tuoba clan in the past, and knew that they were not very rigid about men and women, and they were relatively free to come and go.
Although she admired their free and easy nature, she had received sixteen years of education as a noble girl of the Helian people, but at the moment she was still not used to being greeted like this by a man with a foreign surname who came to the inner courtyard by the big lama.
Especially it seems that he is still a guest in the long room, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with him, and when he hears this sentence "Sister Xi", he doesn't know what to do.
She bowed her head lightly, and then turned and went into the house.
Lin Pei also raised his feet and crossed the threshold and followed: "I heard that you are back, how have you been doing in the past few years?"
Shen Xi was noncommittal, and walked in unhurriedly.
"Xi'er!" Lin Pei took half a step ahead and blocked in front of her.
Shen Xi looked left and right, and only a pearl followed.
She looked at the corner of his silk robe with a deep groan, and said, "I'm fine. β
Be all abroad!
He is Shen Xin's "Pei brother", she has nothing to do with him, she always pesters her to ask what to do?
She made a sound here, and Lin Pei's face softened.
He said to him, "I see that you have grown much taller than before, but why have you lost weight?--Are you tidying up the yard?, we have few people planting flowers in the yard, and you are so leisurely and elegant now." β
He babbled in a soft tone that seemed to be accommodating.
Shen Xin, who was outside the courtyard gate, seemed to have been completely forgotten by him at this moment.
Shen Xin's cheeks were flushed with anger, she had just left her before, but now she was openly ignoring her in front of Shen Xi, how could she bear it!
couldn't help but rush in, but looked at the two people who had stopped under the porch, but they didn't know what to say.
Lin Pei urinated as a regular customer in the house.
At that time, he was still in charge of the Wu family, and Shen Zhengyi had not yet gone to a foreign post, and he had a lot of contacts with the Ding family, so he was naturally familiar with Shen Xi.
Now that she is not like a child, she can speak and act arbitrarily, and if she has to intervene to prevent them from catching up, what position will she take to appear?
Seeing this, Yuanbei, who was stunned on the ladder, hurriedly went to the ground, and stood not far from her with Aunt Pei with a tacit understanding, in case she did anything.
She glared at them with a cold face, gritted her teeth, and walked over with her skirt: "Brother Pei has a good memory, Sister Xi is so grizzled, you can still recognize her." Since you are here, it is better to go into the house and ask Sister Xi for a cup of tea and sit down. β
How can the second room be as good as it used to be?
Three years ago, Shen Xi was the pearl in the palm of the hands of Shen Zhengxin and his wife, who didn't protect it? Now it has already fallen into a lump of mud in the ash heap. Lin Pei didn't know, I'm afraid that she was still the second girl Shen who everyone was chasing and holding in the past, let him go into the house and sit, look at her now, and tear her face to show him!
"I'm sorry, but I only have tea foam in my house right now. β
It's not that Shen Xi doesn't know what Shen Xin means, but it just so happens that she doesn't have the heart to entertain her.
The young man's attitude made people's hearts tight, and she didn't want to show her flaws in front of him.
Lin Pei looked at Shen Xi: "Hurry up Ming'er, I'll ask someone to send you two cans of tea." I happen to have a new melon slice there, which you like. β
Shen Xin's face suddenly frosted, and he stopped talking.
Shen Xi was also a little stunned.
"Can I go in and sit down?" Lin Pei pointed to the room.
Shen Xi looked at him for a long time, and slowly raised his lips: "Please." β
Seeing that he looks like this, he will not leave easily, and since he insists on sitting, then sit. insisted on not allowing it, but it was hypocritical.
She took the lead in going to the corridor, and Lin Pei and Shen Xin followed.
The group entered the front hall and sat in the chairs set up in the room, and Shen Xin looked around.
Lixiangyuan is still the place where Shen Ruopu's uncle lived, and later generations were thin, and there was no shortage of places to live, so this courtyard was empty.
Except for the necessary renovation and care every year, nothing has been done at all.
If it weren't for the fact that the materials used in the construction of the house were very exquisite, and the annual repair would not have been repaired, I was afraid that the doors and windows would have been rotten long ago.
At the beginning, Shen Ruopu took the second room back from Xingergou and directly let them live here.
Out of curiosity, she also came in to take a look, and there was a smell of mold everywhere, the furniture was old and tattered, and there was not a single tile on the floor.
Later, although they simply cleaned after moving in, they changed a few pieces of clumsy furniture, and the floor tiles were not repaired.
So much so that even the maids in the house are reluctant to come here, and the tone when mentioning Lixiangyuan is the same as mentioning the poor households who make a living by doing chores at the street corner.
