Zhao listened to Mama Chen's advice, and did not come to Xu Zhiyuan again, but according to his instructions, he really took Xu Yunhua and Xu Peihua to the Golden Building to pick up jewelry on the second day.
"Sister Yun, if you have something you like, tell me, don't be shy, although the second aunt is not generous in her hands, she can still afford these two pieces of jewelry."
As early as last night, Zhao went to Xu Peihua's house to explain to her the stakes during this period, and told her not to do too much to Xu Yunhua in the near future, otherwise once Xu Zhiyuan was unhappy, there would be no benefit in both cases.
Therefore, after hearing her mother's words, although Xu Peihua was not very happy with a tense face, she finally couldn't help but say nothing.
"Thank you for the mercy of the second aunt, my niece is ashamed."
Although Xu Yunhua didn't say no, but her heart was like a mirror, the second aunt said this and did this, it was nothing more than looking at the face of the second uncle and making a show, if she took it seriously, it would be a big joke, forget it, since she still has to rely on the second uncle and aunt to live for the time being, then eat other people's soft mouths, just endure the humiliation for the time being, and pretend to be as docile and well-behaved as before.
As Xu Peihua wished, this trip to the Golden Building, she not only got a pair of peony Turui golden hairpins that she has always favored, Zhao also specially selected several pearl flowers with pearls and rubies for her, and the shopkeeper had a clever mouth, saying that the style of these beads was the most popular in Dingzhou City, and in this way, it made Zhao happily take out the silver.
Of course, Xu Yunhua is not in vain, a gilded silk silver hairpin, plus a pair of pearl earrings, this is the reward given to her by Zhao.
"Sister Pei, you two sisters will wait for me in the carriage first, there is a place where the coat made for your father a few days ago still needs to be changed, I will go to the tailor's shop in front of me, and I will come back immediately, you two must not walk around."
Zhao finished explaining and left, only Xu Yunhua and Xu Peihua were left in the carriage with their respective maids, the two sisters were not in harmony, and there was no common language, although Xu Yunhua had made up her mind to settle down in the recent period, but she didn't have the idea of sticking a cold fart with a hot face, and no one would pay attention to anyone.
However, the carriage had just been quiet for a short time, when suddenly there was a faint 'knock' sound, and someone outside was tapping on the wall of the carriage.
Jujube Hua received Xu Peihua's eyes, turned around and lifted the azure curtain to a corner, and a gentle and handsome face appeared in everyone's field of vision.
"Good cousin?" Xu Peihua called lightly, and there was no superfluous expression on her face.
After Xu Yunhua saw who was coming, she also shouted, "Good cousin." ”
This person, who was called 'cousin' by the two sisters, was called Sui Liang, the son of Zhao's half-sister, and her sister-in-law had been living with her husband's family in Baotao County since she got married.
The Zhao family is the concubine of the family, so she naturally looks down on the concubine's sister, so she is not even close to this nephew, and when she meets her during the New Year's holidays, she always looks at each other coldly, and Xu Peihua is naturally unwilling to give him any good looks.
But obviously Sui Liang's appearance was not for Xu Peihua, he turned his gaze until he saw Xu Yunhua, first with a look of surprise, and then his eyes became hot.
"Two cousins, what a coincidence, I just came home from school and passed by here, and I saw your carriage, did the two cousins come to choose jewelry, and didn't my aunt come with you?"
Sui Liang is not a person who talks a lot on weekdays, but he finally ran into Xu Yunhua at this time, so he thought about deliberately saying a few more words to delay time.
Xu Peihua is only less than a year younger than Xu Yunhua, and she passed her thirteenth birthday last month, which can be regarded as the age when she first fell in love, although she herself doesn't like her cousin, but when she sees someone who likes someone she hates, the little girl feels uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.
"I heard that in a few months, Cousin Liang will take the township exam, instead of having the kung fu to ask questions here, ask long and short questions, it is better to go home and recite two more model essays, so as to save yourself from being able to be good when you enter the examination room, and you will be laughed at in vain."
Sui Liang originally had a smiling face, but was choked by Xu Peihua's words, red for a while, white for a while, and finally had to end up in a smiling voice, he arched his hand, saluted the sisters in the carriage, and was about to leave, but happened to meet Zhao who returned from the tailor's shop.
The Zhao family has never been waiting to see this nephew, Sui conscience knows it, and originally just wanted to say hello and leave, but this time, Zhao's attitude towards him has taken a 180-degree turn.
"Brother Liang, I happened to meet you here, are you coming home from school?"
Sui Liang nodded hurriedly and replied respectfully, "Back to my aunt, I just got out of school, and I passed by here and saw my aunt's carriage, so I came over to say hello." ”
"Okay, since you're out of school, let's go home with your aunt for a while, although schoolwork is important, but eating tea won't delay much effort."
Zhao's rare good face made Sui Liang stunned, what kind of wind is blowing today, my aunt has changed!
Sui Liang glanced at the cyan curtain on his side, where sat his long-pleasing cousin Yun, and when he thought of Cousin Yun's expectant eyes, Sui Liang didn't even think much about it, and agreed to Zhao's invitation.
He only sent the little guy he followed home to report the news, and he took the Xu family's carriage and left
The carriage traveled slowly for a while, and soon arrived at Xu's house, but as soon as he entered the door, someone came to report, saying that Xu Zhiyuan was in the study, and Sui Liang was a person who understood etiquette, and proposed the idea of going to see his uncle first, and Zhao didn't stop him, so he let the next person take it.
Seeing him leave, the corners of Zhao's mouth couldn't help but curl, but in order not to let others find out about the abnormality, Zhao ordered Xu Yunhua and Xu Peihua to retreat as usual, and then sent the rest of the people who were waiting, leaving only Mama Chen, Mama Chen had stayed by Zhao's side for a long time, and naturally understood the master's intentions, and after the two entered the house together, they smiled tacitly.
"I saw what Brother Liang meant to Sister Yun before, originally I was still worried about the relationship with Zhao Jinglan, plus Brother Liang had already been admitted to Xiucai at a young age, such a good destination really didn't want to be cheap Sister Yun, so I have not been optimistic about the combination of the two of them, but now it is different, compared with the Gao family and the Sui family, it is simply a heaven and an underground, if Brother Liang can go back and propose to her mother the idea of marrying Sister Yun, let's take the opportunity to create a false impression that not only Lang is affectionate, but the concubine is also intentional, I don't think the old man will object to anything. ”
Zhao Jinglan mentioned in Zhao's mouth is her half-sister, in fact, at the beginning of the year, Xu Zhiyuan had quietly hinted to her about this matter, but at that time, Zhao's mind was full of disdain for Sister Shu, as well as malice towards Xu Yunhua, so he politely rejected Xianggong's intention under the pretext of looking at each other more.
But now that I think about it, the Zhao family really regrets it, if they had set up a family affair for Xu Yunhua early in the morning, how could there be today's troubles!
As the master spoke, Mama Chen immediately attached herself to her and said attentively, "Madam, in fact, what you said is not difficult, but it is not in a hurry, it is better to wait for the old slave to go and blow the wind in the ears of Young Master Xiao Sui first." ”
The two sisters in the family are not in time, even if they are going to the Gao family in Dingzhou in a few days, the Gao family will not finalize the family affairs in a short time, the Zhao family knows in her heart, this time she is no longer in a hurry, she wants to retreat as advance, so it can be regarded as a curve to save the country.
