10: Xinluozi

This is the first time Xue Chengjiao has accompanied the old lady to eat in Jinghe Hall, and she is still a little nervous in her two lives. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Old Madam Zhang has been strict all her life, although she is a little lenient and kind to the people in the long room, but if you make a little mistake in front of her, you will annoy her.

Xue Chengjiao followed behind Cui Qiong worriedly, sat down with the old lady, and watched the servants serve all kinds of soup dishes.

Mrs. Runda did not have to serve here, so she only sent the two sisters over, and after asking for peace, she withdrew.

This is also a benefit of Mrs. Zhang, at least in Cheng Jiao's opinion.

She is such a first-class lady, but she never sets rules for her daughter-in-law, not to mention Mrs. Runda, and even Mrs. Hu does not have to serve her personally.

In her previous life, Xue Chengjiao didn't think deeply about this, she just thought it was strange, a kind elder like Mrs. Zhuo in Erfang, she still had to put her daughter-in-law in front of her to set rules, why did Mrs. Zhang not restrain her daughter-in-law?

It was only after she was reborn that she experienced a change in the Deng family in her previous life, and she understood the sophistication of the world.

There is no need to say that the second Mrs. Hu is a little daughter-in-law, and the old lady loves her younger son, and even has more love and favor for her daughter-in-law.

And what about Mrs. Runda? In the more than ten years since she married to Cui's mansion, she has given birth to two sons and a daughter to Cui Run.

Cui Qiong, as the first child of the entire Cui family, is well-known in Yingtianfu for her grace, elegance, and gentleness.

As for Cui Min and Cui Yu, the two brothers, they have good looks and good knowledge, Cui Min was promoted at a young age, and this is all for Mrs. Runda's long face.

The reason why Mrs. Zhang does not restrict Mrs. Runda, but sometimes indulges her, to put it bluntly, is to promote her identity and make her more stable as the wife of the house.

Thinking of this, Xue Chengjiao's heart was blocked again.

She entered Cui's house at the age of eleven, and she relied on her aunt's protection to grow up, but in the end, her aunt was called to Jinghetang by the old lady to reprimand her, which was her involvement, and it was her aunt who was embarrassed.

Cui Qiong sat on her right hand, clearly feeling that her mood fluctuated a lot, and she was a little worried, so she moved her left hand to the table and pinched her leg.

Xue Chengjiao made her pinch painfully, and when she came back to her senses, she turned her face to look, and saw Cui Qiong secretly shaking her head at her, and her eyes glanced at the old lady from time to time.

So she understood that it was Cui Qiong who reminded her and told her not to get distracted in front of the old lady.

Xue Chengjiao gathered her mind a little, finished a meal with her, and didn't dare to think nonsense.

Mrs. Zhang's habit in the past was to sit in the small flower hall for a while after eating, wait for the two brothers Cui Min and Cui Yu to come in and ask for peace, and then recuperate for a while, and then go to settle down.

Today, because Cheng Jiao was dining at Jinghetang for the first time, the old lady seemed to be very satisfied with her performance in the morning, so when she got up, she didn't call Cui Qiong, but only waved to her.

Xue Chengjiao understood, bypassed Cui Qiong and went up to hold the old lady's hand, and followed her all the way to the flower hall.

In the flower hall, Chang An had already instructed the little girl to move an extra high-legged Huanghuali round stool to rest, and Xue Chengjiao helped the old lady to sit down on the Luohan bed, and then turned around and sat on the stool side by side with Cui Qiong.

Mrs. Zhang took the tea handed by Jinling and took a bite, and asked Cheng Jiao with a smile: "I'm old, eat less greasy vegetables, your sister is used to it in the past, are you afraid that you won't get used to it?" ”

Xue Chengjiao smiled and shook her head: "In the past, when I was at home, my mother didn't call it greasy at night, saying that when she ate it in her stomach, she had to rely on the five internal organs to clean it, which hurt her body." ”

Mrs. Zhang saw her more and more at this time, and when she heard her mention her mother, she felt that she was a poor child without her father and mother at a young age.

It also happened that the light in the flower hall today is dim, not as bright as in the main hall, the light is shrouded in Cheng Jiao's body, and her facial features are more soft, sitting with Cui Qiong, one is dignified and dignified, the other is delicate and cute, the old lady smiled and couldn't close her mouth: "I didn't think it before, but now I look closely, we Cheng Jiao is really a beauty." It is said that your Baoding Gao family is a beauty, which shows that the rumors are true. ”

Cheng Jiao blushed with shame when she said this, she was born beautiful, and many people praised her in her previous life, but in the end, she felt that she was blushing, if she didn't have such a look, maybe she wouldn't have had such a bitter life.

Now Xu is mood is different, listening to the old lady's praise, I feel very ashamed.

The old lady saw that she was shy and coquettish, and beckoned to Jinling: "I have a ruyi hairpin with chisel gold in my house, which is the one with purple glazed stone embedded in the hairpin, you go and bring it to Chengjiao." ”

Xue Chengjiao and Cui Qiong glanced at each other, and waved their hands again and again: "The things around the old lady are all expensive, but how dare I accept them." ”

Mrs. Zhang pretended to be displeased and glared at her, Cui Qiong knew that Cheng Jiao was polite, so she pushed her with a smile: "Grandmother is easy not to reward people, you don't thank her old man, why do you still refuse?" Go back and let your mother know, and beat you carefully. ”

While speaking, Jinling had already taken the hairpin back, and the person leaned over to Cheng Jiao, squatted slightly, and handed the hairpin box over.

When the old lady saw her accept it, she smiled again: "This color is too young, it's just right to set you little girls, and it won't be used for a long time in my room," she paused for a while, "Ming'er, your aunt wants you to meet the outsiders together, just add makeup to you." ”

So Xue Chengjiao stood up and thanked him, and then picked up the old lady's words: "I'll pick it up when I go home later, Ming'er will definitely not embarrass you and your aunt." ”

Her words are playful, there are few people around the old lady who make her happy like this, although Cui Qiong is a junior, but the temperament of the eldest daughter of the general end is the same as her mother, and she rarely shows her coquettishness before and after, so at this time, Xue Chengjiao's appearance of being so refined and innocent makes the old lady very useful.

After about half a cup of tea, there was a little girl outside who replied that the uncle and the second master were coming, and the old lady gave Jinling a look, and the girl understood, and went to the flower hall to greet her.

After a while, the two of them entered the flower hall, and Cui Min was in a moon-white robe that did not attract people's attention, but Cui Yu was decorated with a willow yellow plum blossom-like veil on his waist, which made people see it at a glance.

Mrs. Zhang stared at Luozi for a while, and then asked Cui Yu with a smile: "Your Luozi is fresh, and it is Zhaoyue's idea?" ”

Cui Yu didn't think much about it, so he got up and sat on one of the chairs lined up: "It was sent by the third aunt today, and I didn't say where it came from, and I didn't ask in detail, but I just saw that the color was good, so I hung it up." ”

Old Madam Zhang's eyes narrowed and she didn't speak again.

Xue Chengjiao's teeth itched with hatred, and he only hated that he couldn't tell his cousin that the Zhou family was a femme fatale!

When she saw this root in the afternoon, she felt a little strange, Zhaoyue used to use some green colors, and sure enough, when asked, this thing was sent by Zhou.

So she thought, this is mostly from Jiang Yunbi's hand, otherwise what would she do if she sent this thing in a good way? Besides, these objects in my cousin's house have always been taken care of by the moon, and it is easy not to use them outside, and the Zhou family is not unaware!

"I look at this line, it's like a young girl's love to fight......" she muttered, as if unintentionally threw out such a sentence, and then looked at the old lady's face, and sure enough, it was a little ugly.

"You're also confused, do you dare to go on casually without asking about such a close-fitting thing?" Mrs. Zhang seemed to be angry, and casually called Jinling, and Jinling hurried up to persuade her not to be angry, but she didn't listen to anything, and pointed to Jinling and ordered, "Go and get some scissors." ”

This is really moving the liver fire, Cui Yu didn't dare to sit anymore, got up and walked two steps to Luohan's bedside, relying on the old lady Su Rili to hurt him, and actually sat next to her: "Grandmother, don't lose your temper, where did your grandson do wrong, you want to beat or scold, but how about being angry?" Saying that, he went to untie the jade pendant, holding it in both hands and handing it to the old lady, "I don't want the entire jade pendant, you can do it if you fall." ”

The old lady turned her head and smacked him: "Who dropped your jade?" He felt puzzled again, and poked his forehead with his finger, "I just hate that you don't have a heart, and you don't take these things to heart when you do so well in learning." She got it out of nowhere, and gave it to you, and you got it, but if it was from someone's girl, what would you do? ”

Cui Yu just smiled: "If it wasn't sent by the third aunt, how could I use it casually?" Why do you have so much heart, is it possible that the third aunt will still pit me? ”

After asking these questions, Xue Chengjiao clearly saw the flickering light in Mrs. Zhang's eyes, and moved her mouth slightly, but in the end she didn't say anything more, just took the scissors from Jinling's hand, cut a new string out of shape, got it off Cui Yu's jade pendant, and told Jinling to put it away.

A few of the little ones saw that the old lady's temper was suppressed, and they were a little relieved, so they sat down for a while before leaving.
