Chapter 20 A drink and a peck, it is not a matter of heaven.
Hongjian and Wu'er quickly packed up their things and helped Nan Qingxi to stay to greet her, while Qin Wen hid in the back room. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
"Why don't you send someone to notify me when Sister Xiu is here, I'm going to greet my sister!" Nan Qingxi looked at the visitor and smiled.
Nan Qingxi greeted Xie Xiuzhu first, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Xie Xiuzhu's eyes were red, but she didn't see it, she turned around and smiled at the red note: "Go and pour a cup of hot tea for Sister Xiu." β
Xie Xiuzhu hurriedly waved her hand at the red note, "I'm not busy, I'll sit for a while and leave." β
took Nan Qingxi's hand and sat on the couch together, "Sister, I won't talk about these nonsense with you, anyway, I am also your sister, and my aunt has taken care of me in previous years, today I heard the girls and mothers-in-law say that my sister is much better, I originally wanted to put a few tables in the Xueman Building where I lived, first, it can be regarded as a wind and dust for my sister, and secondly, it should be regarded as a cure for my sister...... Ay! Don't talk about it! β
Don't say it, don't you suffer any grievances because of this, Nan Qingxi thought secretly.
"Why didn't the girl say it, the girl was angry with the mother who was in charge of the kitchen for this matter, how could Miss Cousin know your affection if you didn't say it......"
Xie Xiuzhu's eyes were full of anger, and she glared at her eldest girl, Jasmine, "Shut up, don't talk nonsense, you don't know ......if you're in trouble."
Nan Qingxi couldn't help sneering in her heart, thinking that the master and servant had come to her to act, but it seemed that this play had to continue to be performed, and she had to say a sentence by herself.
So she looked at Jasmine and said with tolerance: "Sister Xiu, why should I be like this, I have always been a person who has no memory, Jasmine said that I also went in the left ear and out of the right ear." If my sister really suffers any grievances, although I am a foreigner and can't help much, I still have to say a few words for my sister in front of my aunt, and ask for justice! β
Xie Xiuzhu smiled bitterly, held Nan Qingxi's hand, and said: "It's just that those mothers in the kitchen worship high and low, and they don't look down on me as a young lady, and it's not worth being my sister to speak for me in front of my mother, if my sister really said a few words for me, I don't know how these individuals will talk about me behind my back in the future!" β
Xie Xiuzhu understands that her fate is in the hands of Mrs. Zhu, and she may not be able to say if she is unhappy one day and marries her to a broken family, so before this, she can't offend Mrs. Zhu, that is, she can't regard herself too much as the serious master of the Xie family, she also has to find a thick and hard shield, so that she can protect herself.
Nan Qingxi inadvertently saw a mocking expression on Xie Xiuzhu's face.
Nan Qingxi knew that she was laughing at herself, guessing that she was probably laughing at herself, although she was nominally a master, she couldn't protect her face in front of Mrs. Zhu's servants!
But Nan Qingxi didn't seem to think that a concubine like Xie Xiuzhu couldn't see her future clearly, her future was not up to her own decision, if her mother-in-law was happy, she would find a good family for her, if she was unhappy, she might not know what the outcome would be.
Nan Qingxi is a concubine, so naturally she can't fully understand the pain in her heart.
Xie Xiuzhu is the same as all concubines, her future is in the hands of Mrs. Zhu and her mother-in-law......
Nan Qingxi was depressed because of her expression, and a person dressed as a girl suddenly appeared in front of her, that girl, her lonely figure shuttled through a large mansion, and her back was helpless and seemed a little lonely......
"Cousin, cousinβ" A girl in the room whimpered and sobbed, worried.
But Nan Qingxi couldn't hear it, her eyes were empty and distant, the whole person was sluggish again, and her face was a little scary.
Not to mention that Xie Xiuzhu and her girl Jasmine were naturally frightened when they saw this situation for the first time.
Well, what's going on?
The red note took a long breath and shouted, "Sisters and mothers outside, the girl is sick, please come in and help me serve the girl, and I will boil the side medicine." β
Unexpectedly, this red note was much calmer and calmer than the older sorrow, and commanded in an orderly manner.
The sisters and mothers outside heard the shouts of the red note, and after a moment, they didn't dare to delay and entered.
Only then did she come to her senses, and said politely to Xie Xiuzhu, who was still stunned: "Third girl, I'll send you back, my cousin is sick, I'm afraid I won't be able to slow down for a while, and you don't have to delay here." β
Xie Xiuzhu's wandering mind was pulled back by the voice of Worry, and when she saw Jasmine staying there in a panic, her stomach was full of fire, and she slapped her arm again, "Come back with me." β
Sorrow sent Xie Xiuzhu's master and servant to the door, originally to send them back.
But Xie Xiuzhu insisted on letting Sorrow stay to take care of Nan Qingxi, but Sorrow couldn't, but she was afraid that Xie Xiuzhu would misunderstand her girl and said a few words of explanation, and also said that her own girl sent herself to take care of her cousin because she was not in good health, and explained her condition for Nan Qingxi.
Several people inevitably exchanged a few words of greeting, and Xie Xiuzhu led Jasmine back, and Sorrow also went in.
As soon as she went back, Xie Xiuzhu sat on the Luohan bed near the window, and lay down on the table without saying a word to draw the pattern.
Jasmine didn't dare to say anything, just sat on the edge of the bed with a pestle and waited, Xie Xiuzhu put down the pen and pondered for a while, with a look of hesitation on her face.
Jasmine was a perceptive person, and asked with concern, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" β
Xie Xiuzhu was absent-minded, and it took a long time before she spoke, "You say, will there be such a coincidence in this world?" β
Jasmine hesitated for a moment before she understood what she was referring to, so she replied according to her meaning, "Who said it wasn't, I heard that when the two Qin girls went to visit their wives, Miss Wen was still followed by Miss Wen, but it was a coincidence, it happened that the girl went to see Miss Nan, and Miss Worry was waiting in her room." β
The corners of Xie Xiuzhu's mouth twitched slightly, and she wanted to say something, but she couldn't help but say it, and coughed lightly.
After a long time, Fang said: "Let Apricot go to the Anting Courtyard to inquire." β
Jasmine was embarrassed, "Girl, the servants in this shore courtyard are all brought by the Qin family from home, I'm afraid I won't be able to inquire about anything." β
Xie Xiuzhu stretched out her finger and poked Jasmine's head, looking like she hated iron but not steel, "Idiot, I said that you should call Apricot to ask directly, not to mention that you can't find anything in her girl's mother-in-law, but what can we hear in our own family." β
After listening to this, Jasmine hung her head and just said "yes", and then lifted the curtain and called Apricot to go to the shore courtyard.
The apricot was much more clever than Jasmine, and it didn't take long for it to fold back.
ββ¦β¦ And not in the South girl's house, the South girl is sick, the whole room is carefully served, no one dares to slack off, I just said that the girl is worried about the South girl, the girls and the mother-in-law all said that when the South girl is well, they must convey the girl's concern, and the red note said that their girls are sick, usually not good for a day or two, but there is also a time when it is better, no one has a head, so that the girls do not have to worry about their girls. β
Xie Xiuzhu nodded, and couldn't help sighing: "Qin Wen is not with Sister Nan, maybe I think too much." Then he asked, "Has the pearl returned?" β
The outside replied, "No." β
Xie Xiuzhu remembered something again, was a little irritable, and said angrily: "I haven't died yet, and I started beating the people in my house." β
She caught a glimpse of Jasmine's cowardly appearance as she spoke, and couldn't help but say a few words.
"Look at you, what has become of you since you heard a few rumors, what you can't do, if you don't cheer up again, don't be an eyesore in front of me. How do I treat you on weekdays, you know in your heart, now when I need to use someone, you will shake my face, if you are angry, stay away, don't make me upset. β
Xie Xiuzhu said that in the end, she was very aggrieved and couldn't cry, and Jasmine also cried when she heard this.
Xie Xiuzhu was in tears, and the more she talked about the past, the more sad she became.
