Chapter 14: Passing Birthday (2)

Tao Xiushui was relieved when he thought about it like this. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

He walked over with a smile and saluted Mrs. Xiao again.

As soon as Mrs. Xiao grasped Tao Xiushui's hand, she gently stroked the bracelet on her wrist, and it was on Tao Xiushui's smooth wrist.

"This ......"

"Take it, this is my gift to you"

The Xiao family is thanking her.

Tao Xiushui didn't shirk it, so she had to thank you with a smile.

Tao Xiumei, who was standing on the side at this time, almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face.

She didn't get a gift when she met Mrs. Xiao just now, and as soon as this dead girl came, Mrs. Xiao actually gave her something that she had been carrying for more than ten years without saying a word, what does this mean?

Could it be that the Xiao family really likes this girl?

His heart was burning with jealousy, his face was stiff, and he almost couldn't maintain his peace on his face.

If it were someone else, she could also jokingly ask for a gift.

But in the face of Xiao An's grandmother, she didn't dare.

Because she is not familiar with this old lady's heart, she has only met twice this time.

Don't worry, take your time, she said to herself.

Mrs. Tao saw that her granddaughter was left out in the cold, and she couldn't see it, so she smiled and said, "Old sister, I think it's better to let their juniors go out to play by themselves!

"That's a good feeling" Mrs. Xiao was prepared, and hurriedly called her granddaughter to know Tao Xiushui.

"Xiushui girl, this is my granddaughter Lan'er, you are the same age, and you happen to be companions"

Xiao Lan'er is as her name suggests, her pretty face is delicate and lovely, her skin is fair and delicate, and she is really like an orchid.

The two greeted each other, and their peaceful and indifferent faces made the two of them feel good when they saw each other for the first time.

In the past, Tao Xiushui didn't have any friends when she was in Xiangfu, because her mother-in-law didn't like her to make friends everywhere.

So she was afraid of causing trouble for her aunt, so she didn't go out to make friends.

Even if a young lady gave her a post, she couldn't refuse.

Every time I go out, I hide behind that sister-in-law, and I am like a maid.

Sometimes she heard people laugh at her for being a stupid girl.

Although I was so aggrieved in my heart, I didn't dare to care.

Now that I have a different identity, I don't have to worry about it, but I don't have to worry about it so much.

"Stupid girl, just your solid eyes, you feel that people are good to you, but you actually want to find out how you know other people's secrets!"

Tao Xiushui was rejoicing when he heard a voice in his ear.

"You're the goblin...... You're finally awake," she almost cried out with delight.

"Of course, Xiaoxian, I slept enough and was woken up by hunger"

"Okay, I'll help you get food later," Tao Xiushui agreed heartily.

said to Xiao Lan'er in front of him: "Let's go out and find something to eat."

Xiao Lan'er nodded.

She was also thinking about being alone with this young lady for a while.

Tao Xiushui didn't know what to eat there, so he had to ask Qingzhu next to him.

A few people walked to a small hall next door, which is used alone for guests to catch up, and if there are too good or familiar people to talk and chat in front of people, they will generally find a small hall with no one.

When a few people entered the house, they saw that there were many noble girls sitting inside.

There were a number of fruit and melon pastries on each table.

Xiao Lan'er wanted the two of them to be alone, so she picked a place where no one was nearby to sit.

Tao Xiushui didn't know anyone, and smiled kindly when she saw someone looking at her.

The demon is hungry, and he must be fed first.

The two sat down one after another, Tao Xiushui had no friends before, and it was not good to say it too casually.

First smiled and said, "Are you Xiao An's sister?"

Xiao Lan'er was not optimistic about Tao Xiushui before, and now if she hadn't been instructed by her family, she wouldn't have befriended this person, I heard that this person was very arrogant and unreasonable, and she didn't know whether it was true or not, but her brother was a nymphomaniac, and it seemed to be true.

Nodding his head, "yes! I'm two years younger than him."

"It's good to have my brother to protect you," Tao Xiushui said unconsciously.

Suddenly, he saw that the demon spirit was sitting at the table and filling his mouth with a big mouthful, afraid of being sent by the person in front of him, so he hurriedly picked up a piece of pastry on the table and handed it to Xiao Lan'er, "You taste this, it looks good."

Xiao Lan'er took it easily, she thought that this person would follow her brother all the way down, and she prepared a lot of words in her heart, but they were useless.

Looking at the attitude of the person in front of him, it was not as rude and unreasonable as the rumors, but it was a little friendly and smiled.

Tao Xiushui also handed a piece of green bamboo, took a piece of it himself, and slowly bit and ate it.

I occasionally heard several nobles snickering on the other side, and one of them was a woman in a pink robe who sneered:

"Look, isn't that barbarian girl who is angry with her grandfather?

The voice is not big, but it is not small, let Tao Xiushui and a few people listen to it.

Tao Xiushui shook his head and smiled bitterly, it seems that the previous original owner was really a person who did not dare to compliment.

She ignored the strange eyes of several people and ignored them.

Qingzhu couldn't look at it, and stared back.

Xiao Lan'er raised her eyebrows slightly, it was not people who were close to her today, but she learned from others.

He said, "What do you guys say? Do we have anything to do with you? Don't talk about other people, but take care of yourself."

The Miss Xiao in front of her spoke for her, Tao Xiushui didn't expect it, but she liked this temperament.

Smiled and said: "The mouth grows on other people's bodies, they can say whatever they like!

"Ah......h

This person can be so forbearing, and if it is true, the rumors are all harmful things.

The young ladies on that side were all red-faced.

Miss Xiao has the most noble status among all the business women.

There are official ladies who usually interact with people, unlike them, who can only be with business girls.

All of them whispered, and no one dared to say it again.

After a short time, I saw Tao Xiumei walking in with Yingyingfang.

When he saw Miss Xiao, he first smiled and shouted, "It turns out that Sister Xiao is here, I'm looking for you everywhere!"

"Looking for me, is there something wrong?"

This question made Tao Xiushui unable to hold back his laughter.

Tao Xiumei was embarrassed for a while, and said calmly: "I haven't seen Sister Xiao for a long time, so I'm thinking of saying something considerate."

"Oh! I'm talking to Xiushui!" Xiao Lan'er took a bite of snacks before saying.

This is a choking enough to say it, and it shows no mercy at all.

Tao Xiushui glanced at Tao Xiumei's darkened pretty face, and didn't know what to feel in her heart.

When she came to this house, she really didn't want to be like this with her sisters anymore.

It wasn't what she wanted, but she couldn't help it.

After a while, Tao Xiumei glanced at Tao Xiushui and said: "We will pay tribute to my grandmother for her birthday in a while, I hope you don't hold us back."

The man threw it down before leaving.

Tao Xiushui turned his head and looked at Qingzhu, "Do I want to celebrate my birthday with them?"

"Yes, Miss, you are a granddaughter, you want to follow the young ladies"

"When will that start?"

"After a while, people will come and call people"

"Okay got it"

Xiao Lan'er looked at the two of them and asked and answered, and said strangely: "Don't you know these things?"

Tao Xiushui hurriedly covered up, "I remember that it wasn't like this before, it seems that I remembered it wrong"

Although Xiao Lan'er didn't believe it, she had no choice but to nod when she heard him say this.

After a short time, Tao Xiushui saw that the demon spirit actually ate the whole plate of pastries, not to mention, but also went to eat melons and fruits.

Seeing that plate of melons and fruits will not be guaranteed.

hurriedly said to the villain in his heart: "Don't eat it, be careful to break your belly and go"

When the demon spirit heard this, he stopped talking, and he couldn't eat anymore.

The bulky body climbed onto the vial on Tao Xiushui's chest and fell asleep.

Tao Xiushui secretly scolded the demon spirit for being a foodie.

Afraid of arousing suspicion, he had to lead Xiao Lan'er out of it.

At this time, the sun was just right outside, and the two sat on the verandah opposite for a while, Xiao Lan'er endured it for a long time before she spoke:

"I've always wondered, how did you know that there was a problem with my goods?"

Tao Xiushui smiled, "I told your brother that day, it was an old grandfather who told me"

"Really?"

"Of course, what do I lie to you about"

"Then how did you know the secret of the date of my family's departure?"

"Secret?" Only then did Tao Xiushui know that people can't say it to outsiders when they go out on the boat.

I had to make an excuse that it was also the old man who told her, in order to be afraid that your Xiao family would not believe it.

Xiao Lan'er was skeptical, and when she wanted to ask something, she heard a mother-in-law shouting:

"All the young ladies and young masters come in! it's time to pay birthday greetings to the old lady."

Xiao Lan'er heard this, and hurriedly pulled Tao Xiushui's sleeve and asked, "By the way, I forgot to ask you, did you prepare a birthday gift for your grandmother?"

Tao Xiushui smiled and shook his head, "No"

"Still going without you?"

"It's okay, let's go"
