Chapter Twenty-Four: The Wind in Your Ears

"What's going on?" Xia Jiumei sat up quickly, and then reacted that it was Aunt Chen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen is one of the three aunts of Master Xia, and only one daughter, Xia Sui, was carried down the steps by the nurse who got up at night not long after she was born, and died on the spot. However, in the past, the people of the Lin clan were able to restrain her quickly, but this time it was so loud that the Chen clan could be heard shouting loudly across the two courtyards: "You can change your daughter to me, master!" ”

"Mu Xiang, go and see what's going on, why Aunt Chen's madness is so bad all of a sudden." Xia Jiumei commanded, and at a glance, her brows frowned slightly.

There were four big girls in her room, and only two of them came at this time.

"What about Mu Xiu and Mu Hibiscus?" She asked, and Mulan replied: "Sister Muxiu is not on duty tonight, rest in the room, Mu Hibiscus ...... It should be coming soon. ”

Xia Jiumei raised her eyebrows, Mu Xiu said that it was given to her by the old lady, and she knew that she was lazy and slippery all day long, but Mu Hibiscus has always been low-key, and what she should do is exactly what she should do, and she often sways in front of her like Mulan Muxiang, why did she make such a big mistake today and see no one?

The girl jumped out of bed and went into the room, "Miss! Mulan chased after her with a cloak, and as soon as she went out, she bumped into Mu Hibiscus and kowtowed to ask for sin: "Mu Hibiscus is snooze, please forgive Miss." ”

Xia Jiumei tightened her cloak, and she swept a piece of mud on the sole of her shoe, but waved her hand quietly: "It's okay, it's not you on duty today, go down." Hibiscus didn't say anything more, and hung his head back.

The girl was thoughtful, where can the hibiscus go in the middle of the night? I just happened to catch up with Aunt Chen to make a fuss, is it a coincidence, or is it ......

"Miss, the caretaker said that she heard the cat meow and remembered Miss Ten, so it made a fuss, it's the spring moon, and there are many wild cats." Mu Xiang came back and said.

"Miss Ten, Xia Sui, she doesn't seem to be much younger than me, but it's also pitiful." Xia Jiumei shook her head.

I remember that Aunt Chen is the most beautiful and gentle, and she is very liked by my father, if it weren't for this incident, I'm afraid my father's sole favor would not be Wang's turn.

"It's only half a month younger, miss." Mu Xiang said respectfully, while waiting for Xia Jiumei to go to bed, Mulan interjected on the side: "Yes, that is, our master is kind-hearted, and he always feels that he owes Aunt Chen, if it was someone else's family, he would have been sent to the countryside to die in a private garden." ”

Thinking of that loving father, Xia Jiumei smiled slightly and boarded the couch: "Father is kind, and he is blessed." ”

I didn't sleep well at night, and Aunt Chen's screams always echoed, but the ninth sister woke up and couldn't figure out the messy dream.

"Such a little thing makes you frightened, if you don't have the Concentration Grass, you wouldn't even want to sleep now." Keyling teased in her ear.

"Yes, yes, I know you're doing it for my good." Xia Jiumei stretched out and said, "Now I have to practice stone selection well, and I must not lose to that Xia Wenjing." ”

has been unlucky by Xia Wenjing for all these years, and she has been bullied so much that she can't even lift her head, and she wants to fight for Xia Wenshu to get it all back.

The key spirit sneered disdainfully, who is it for your good.

……

Xia Jiumei's practice of choosing stones in the stone garden soon spread throughout the Xia family, and when Xia Ziyu heard the news, she raised the corners of her lips contemptuously: "I thought you had become smarter, but in the end there was only such a stupid trick as dead studying, hum, but it was such a stupid trick, and I wouldn't let you get your wish." ”

"Miss, the pastries are ready." The personal girl handed over the food box, Xia Ziyu put it on her shoulder, and walked out of the small kitchen with a disgusted face.

"Mother, Ziyu came to say hello to her mother." Xia Ziyu put the food box on the stone slab on the side and knelt straight in front of the door: "If my mother doesn't see me today, Ziyu can't kneel here for a long time to show her will." ”

Mama Peng relayed the words to the Lin family, and said, "Madam, you can't be soft-hearted, if you let Miss Nine know, you should be so cold." ”

Lin knocked on the table in distraught: "Mama Peng, do you think what Wen Shu said that night is true?" But Ziyu, this child has always been filial to me, and he is closer to the Wang family than to the Wang family, but it is that Xia Wenshu, I suffered a lot of blame for not being able to give birth to a concubine back then, and finally gave birth to her, but what about her? As a carving girl of the Xia family, she is not even as good as Jia Qi, how could I give birth to such a daughter, she is simply a waste! The more Lin Shi talked, the more annoyed she became, and the more she felt that Xia Ziyu, who had rubbed her shoulders and beaten her back over the years, was well-behaved: "Call her in, I also want to hear her explanation." ”

Mama Peng lowered her eyelids and went out to invite Xia Ziyu in.

"Mother!" Xia Ziyu's voice was sad and emotional, and when she entered the door, she knelt down and walked in front of Lin's body, with a pair of red and swollen walnut eyes, and her little hands dipped in soda held the pastry high and sobbed and begged: "It's Yu'er who is too anxious for the ninth sister to break into trouble, Yu'er is willing to accept any punishment from her mother, and she just begs her mother not to ignore Yu'er." ”

Lin was aroused by this sound of mother's love in his heart, and hurriedly helped Xia Ziyu up, and said angrily: "You, this time is too reckless!" ”

Mama Peng looked at Xia Ziyu and coaxed the Lin family to laugh in just a few words, and couldn't help but shake her head.

If Miss Nine would also be coquettish with these sweet words, Mrs. would not have such a stiff relationship with her biological daughter.

"Mother, Yu'er knows that she is probably already a bad sister in the heart of the ninth sister, but Yu'er still can't watch the ninth sister do stupid things, go and stop her." Seeing that the timing was right, Xia Ziyu knelt at Lin's feet and said softly: "Mother, do you know that the ninth sister is now practicing stone selection in the stone garden." ”

Lin was slightly stunned: "Practicing in the Stone Garden? Doesn't she always go? As soon as the words fell, Lin's eyebrows furrowed.

"Mother, the ninth sister is going to gamble with the fifth sister tomorrow, at this time, the fifth sister did not go to the stone garden to practice, but she went, no matter whether the gambling stone of tomorrow wins or loses, it will be detrimental to the reputation of the ninth sister."

"This foolish thing, it's embarrassing for me!" Lin suddenly realized and hurried to the stone garden.

Mama Peng glanced meaningfully at Xia Ziyu, who was hanging her head and wiping her tears, and hurriedly followed.

"Xia Wenshu, you embarrassing rebel girl, don't you go back to the room for me quickly!" Lin rushed to the stone garden angrily, and knocked the rough stone picked by Xia Wenshu to the ground, looking at the girl's calm and slightly pitiful gaze, Lin was angry.

This rebel girl deliberately gave her a look in front of the lord the day before yesterday, and now not only does she not salute, but she dares to look at her with such tepid eyes, which is really lawless!

"You unruly thing!" Lin raised his hand and was about to slap her, but he was suddenly caught: "Xia Wenshu, you are presumptuous, catch her for me!" ”

Xia Jiumei pinched Lin's wrist, of course her strength couldn't compare to Lin's, so the moment she grabbed her, she dodged and hid behind Mu Xiang.

"Madame's anger." All the maids fell to their knees, and to Xia Jiumei's surprise, it was Hibiscus firmly in front of her.

The girl quickly restrained her surprise and pressed the arm of Mu Hibiscus to protect her: "Mother is going to beat me when she comes up, it seems that Xia Ziyu's ears are blowing well." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin drank cold.
