295: Concealment
Xia Ruan looked at Xiao Yuanxi in surprise, and didn't know how to speak for a while.
She almost cried tears of joy.
"Xiaoxi, what did you just say?" Xia Ruan held Xiao Yuanxi's hand, perhaps too happy, and there was some uncontrollable strength in his hand, which made Xiao Yuanxi frown.
Xiao Yuanxi felt a little pain.
But no amount of pain could compare to what she had just heard.
Not only Xia Ruan couldn't believe it, but even she couldn't believe it.
Xiao Yuanxi cried so hard that he trembled.
She...... I can actually speak, I can open my mouth to call people.
Xia Ruan seemed to see Xiao Yuanxi's shock, then took a deep breath and whispered to Xiao Yuanxi: "Come, Xiaoxi, call me...... Three...... Sister-in-law......"
Xiao Yuanxi looked at Xia Ruan's mouth shape, then nodded, and tried to shout: "Three...... Three...... Less ......"
The voice that came out of Xiao Yuanxi's mouth was obviously a little vicissitudes and harsh, but Xia Ruan's eyes were rosy when he heard it.
Her efforts these days have not been in vain, Xiao Jiu is not at home, so she took the initiative to talk to Xiao Yuanxi, even if she is fine, she will learn embroidery, and let Xiao Yuanxi tell her what to do.
She slowly approached Xiao Yuanxi, and over time, Xiao Yuanxi gradually let go of her vigilance, so when she asked just now, Xiao Yuanxi didn't think much about it, and said what was in her heart.
Xia Ruan pulled Xiao Yuanxi over, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, and finally hugged Xiao Yuanxi tightly in his arms.
She was so happy that she didn't know how to express the joy in her heart.
The only thing Xia Ruan could do at this time was to hold the child.
Xiao Yuanxi also seemed to feel Xia Ruan's emotions. She tried over and over again, shouting with difficulty, "Three...... Three...... Sister-in-law...... Three...... Sister-in-law......"
After a long time, Xia Ruan slowly tried to calm her mood, she looked at Xiao Yuanxi, and then laughed.
As long as this child's heart knot can be untied, then she is sure to let Xiao Yuanxi understand how to treat the people around her in the future.
The struggle in the house is bloodless for killing.
Xiao Yuanxi must understand these cruelties as soon as possible.
Xia Ruan said softly to Xiao Yuanxi: "Xiaoxi, you can talk about this matter, don't tell anyone else yet, okay?" ”
Xiao Yuanxi raised his head. looked at Xia Ruan with a puzzled expression. She naturally didn't understand why her third sister-in-law didn't let her tell the news.
Xia Ruan stroked Xiao Yuanxi's hair, and his movements were very gentle, as if he was caressing a rare treasure. "A few more days. Guests are coming to the house. When the time comes, the third sister-in-law will tell Xiaoxi why it's good? Now, the third sister-in-law can't tell Xiaoxi, and the third sister-in-law hopes that Xiaoxi can also find it herself. The third sister-in-law doesn't let you tell the people around you for reasons. ”
Xiao Yuanxi tilted his head and nodded after a while.
She naturally didn't understand why the third sister-in-law said these words, but subconsciously Xiao Yuanxi still knew that the third sister-in-law was for her good, otherwise she wouldn't be happy at this time because she could speak, and she almost cried happily.
She had never seen such a gaffe of the third sister-in-law.
The third sister-in-law on weekdays, like the third brother, is always smiling, and she looks like the kindest person in the world when she laughs.
In fact, Xiao Yuanxi thinks so.
Her third sister-in-law is the best woman in the world.
Xiao Yuanxi thought about it, then stretched out his little finger, and then showed a shallow smile.
Xia Ruan was stunned for a moment, then laughed too, stretched out his little finger and hooked Xiao Yuanxi, "Pull the hook and pull the hook, it won't change for a hundred years." ”
Xiao Yuan was happy to see Xia Ruan say it, and the whole person smiled even more happily.
Looking at the immature smile on Xiao Yuanxi's face, his heart was soft.
……
When Chun'er entered the house with pastries, she saw Xiao Yuanxi lying on the soft couch, sleeping quietly with her eyes closed.
Xia Ruan looked at the ledger on the side and didn't notice her arrival.
Chun'er was a little unhappy that Xiao Yuanxi was so lazy, if Xia Ruan didn't like Xiao Yuanxi's embroidery in the future, there would be fewer opportunities for Xiao Yuanxi to come to the main courtyard at that time.
Xiao Yuan has fewer opportunities to come to the main courtyard, so she is naturally the same.
"Madam, the slave maid has prepared the medicinal food and put it on the small stove to warm it, and the Hou Ye can use it when he comes back at night. The slave maid brought the pastries first. Chun'er pretended to be puzzled and glanced at Xiao Yuanxi, "The slave maid went to call the thirteenth lady to get up and use some things." ”
Xia Ruan waved his hand: "No need, let her sleep for a while." I don't know if this kid is sick or not, and he has no energy at all. ”
Chun'er chuckled in her heart, and then said with a smile: "Madame is too worried, Miss Thirteen has been resting well these days, how can she be sick?" The slave maid and Xiu'er have been serving Miss Thirteen with their hearts all these years, and Aunt Lin and the Hou Ye are very relieved of the slave maid and Xiu'er. ”
Xia Ruan raised her eyebrows, and Chun'er had something to say.
It's just that Chun'er's words are not necessary for her to take them to heart.
When she comes back from the palace, she will let Xiao Yuanxi understand who can trust and who can't, and she must learn to guard against those people in the future.
Some people can tell three points of truth or seven points of truth, but for some people, they can't tell any of them.
"Really?" Xia Ruan said slowly, "Didn't you notice that Miss Thirteen looked bad?" ”
Chun'er just wanted to refute, but saw Xia Ruan put the ledger on the table, staring at her with a pair of eyes tightly.
Xia Ruan's sharp eyes made Chun'er a little weak.
She didn't understand whether Xia Ruan in front of her was really smart or fakely smart. If she was really smart, how could she let Miss Thirteen move to Xianyaju, after all, she knew a little bit about Xiao Jiu's thoughts and feelings, and Xia Ruan knew a little. If it is falsely smart, then why does the person in front of him have such eyes.
Chun'er lowered her eyes, and only replied after half a ring: "The slave didn't find out." ”
"Really?" Xia Ruan was not in a hurry to argue with Chun'er, "In a few days, Miss Biao will be entering Beijing, I heard that you used to serve by Miss Biao's side?" ”
Chun'er hurriedly raised her head, and then her eyes widened: "Madam? You ......"
Xia Ruan, is this asking her to return to Miss Cousin to serve?
How can it.
It was not easy for her to win Miss Biao's favor, and she went from Miss Cousin's side to Xiao Jiu's side. But now Xia Ruan has denied everything about her.
Chun'er is naturally reluctant to return to Miss Biao's side, she wants to be by Xiao Jiu's side, even if she is a concubine, she will not leave here.
"Then you should know what Miss Cousin likes, right?" Xia Ruan looked at Chun'er's panicked face, and suddenly felt interesting, "Those girls in Chunfang Courtyard, you remember to teach them." When Miss Biao came over, he asked Miss Cousin to live in Chunfangyuan. ”
After Xia Ruan finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip of tea, and then frowned slightly. "The tea is cold."
Chun'er hasn't come back to her senses for a while. She didn't understand what Xia Ruan was thinking in her heart.
But subconsciously, Chun'er still picked up the tea cup that Xia Ruan had placed on the table and went to make a hot tea again.
Xia Ruan looked at Chun'er's back. Smiled coldly.
She said that this is nothing more than to make Chun'er understand. She can make Chun'er live well and make Chun'er live badly. It's just that she doesn't bother to do it. After all, Chun'er is just a little girl, and she doesn't have to solve it herself.
Chun'er. She is the one who is going to use it to practice methods and eyes for Xiao Yuanxi.
Now, Xia Ruan's only worry is Miss Biao, who is about to enter Beijing.
After all, she didn't know what kind of person this person was, let alone what this person was thinking.
Chun'er brought the brewed hot tea over, not daring to look at Xia Ruan's eyes again.
This time, Xia Ruan didn't embarrass her, drank the hot tea in the teacup, continued to look at the account book, and didn't ask Chun'er to go out.
Chun'er stood in front of Xia Ruan stupidly like this, neither to leave nor to stay.
After a long time, Chun'er was suffocated all over her body, and she felt that she was about to go crazy, only to see Duran slowly walk outside and walk in.
Du Lan blessed his body: "Madam, Steward Xue is here." ”
Steward Xue is the person sent by the Lin family, and now he is the old steward of the house, he knows better than Chun'er what to say and what not to say, what to do and what not to do. Therefore, Xia Ruan is also very satisfied with what he did.
Steward Xue didn't glance at Chun'er when he came in, and immediately saluted Xia Ruan: "The little one has seen Madame, Madame Wanfu." ”
Xia Ruan lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "Steward Xue get up, I am looking for Steward Xue today, because there are some things I want to discuss with Steward Xue." ”
She said softly, as if she wanted to discuss with the person in front of her from the bottom of her heart, with a smile in her eyebrows and eyes, without a trace of arrogance.
But Steward Xue is an old man who has served Xiao Jiu for many years, and he naturally understands the status of his wife in Xiao Jiu's heart, so he hurriedly took a step back and waved his hand: "Madam, this is torturing the old slave, the old slave doesn't dare." ”
"Steward Xue is polite." The smile on Xia Ruan's face deepened, "I'm going to enter the palace for a few days, and everything in this mansion will be taken care of by Steward Lao Xue." Hou Ye is very busy these days, he always stays up late at night, Steward Xue remembers to urge Hou Ye to rest early, if Hou Ye is busy and can't rest early, then send some ginseng soup over. I have already prepared the small kitchen for the pastries that Hou Ye likes to eat, and if Hou Ye is hungry, I will send small pastries and medicinal food. ”
Steward Xue widened his eyes when he heard this.
Although Xiao Jiu often smiled, Xiao Jiu was not a person who was easy to approach. Now let him supervise Xiao Jiu's work and rest, Manager Xue felt that it was too difficult.
However, Steward Xue also knows that since Mrs. entered the school, Master Hou's schedule is indeed much more regular than before.
Xia Ruan smiled and continued to add, "Last night, Hou Ye told me that there were still two people waiting for him, and I waited for me to come back from the palace, so let Xue Cheng and Xue He go to Hou Ye's side." ”
Xue Cheng and Xue He are the two sons of Xue Steward, and they have been working in the outer courtyard.
Steward Xue didn't dare to let the two sons' positions be too good, for fear that people would gossip in front of Xiao Jiu, so the wages of these two children have always been a little less.
Now that this matter was brought up by Xia Ruan, naturally no one dared to say that it was not.
But Steward Xue also understands that there is no free lunch in this world.
Madame must have done this with a purpose. (To be continued......)
