Xiuguan glanced at Mother Cao, who was low-browed and obedient behind Chu Pei, and remembered that Mother Cao was guarding against her in every way on weekdays, and felt even more aggrieved, Xiusun acted like this, how could she hold her head up in the old mansion in Jiangpu in the future.

"You have to go and say hello to the old lady and her wife first." Xiuguan smiled stiffly, and his tone was inevitably a little embarrassed.

The smile on Xiusun's face did not have a crack, crossed Xiuguan, took Chu Pei's hand affectionately, and went to the house that had been arranged, "The fourth aunt is rare to visit, I heard that the fourth aunt likes kapok the most, so I deliberately went to the mountain to pick some and inserted them in the dendrobium, I didn't expect that there would be a charm, and the fourth aunt came with me to appreciate and appreciate." ”

Chu Pei saw that Xiusun was so attentive, so he didn't think much about it, and followed Xiusun to the house.

Xiuguan saw that Chu Pei didn't care, frowned, and took two steps forward to block the way for the two, "How can there be a reason to come back and not ask for peace, my sister knows the rules best, isn't this sincere to make my sister unfilial?" ”

Xiusun was already unhappy in her heart, but after listening to the nonsense that she was sued by the wicked person first, she turned her head, looked at Xiuguan with a smile, and said softly, "It's not too much to freshen up and then go to ask for peace, what does my sister think?" ”

Xiuguan was choked by her breathing, and suddenly asked her "What do you think", what can she think!

Xiuguan swallowed her saliva involuntarily, and barely pulled out a smile, "What can I think, naturally I have been away from home for a long time, I miss my grandmother and mother, and I rushed to take a look." Her tone was soft, and she glanced at Chu Pei pleadingly.

Chu Pei stepped on the foot of the stomping and retracted it, she remembered that Xiuguan had said that her eighth sister-in-law Ruan's temper was quite bad, and she often punished her aunt, and their concubines did not have a good time.

Speculating that Xiuguan was afraid that he didn't go home and immediately went to ask An to let his mother-in-law grab the handle and rectify it, he was a little distressed, so he stood in place and waited for her to finish speaking.

Xiusun rolled her eyes in her heart, you also know that you haven't been home for a long time, and today you remember to pretend to be filial, and someone has to believe it.

She still smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry, go freshen up." My sister is waiting here. ”

Chu Pei saw that Xiusun was smiling brightly and lovely, and she spoke politely, so she didn't care.

Xiuguan felt that Xiusun was deliberately forcing her, as if she didn't let her go to see the old lady and Mrs. without taking a shower and changing her clothes.

In the old house of Jiangpu. The subordinates are very respectful to her, and have never disobeyed her, except for a Cao mother who is very annoying, she has been living smoothly these days, and her temper has also grown.

This anger rises from the heart. She almost jumped up and said in a loud voice, "You hate the fourth aunt and me for being dirty!" ”

The heart-wrenching argument shook out his face, and the scene was suddenly not very good-looking.

Chu Pei, who had already stepped into the hall with one foot, turned around and frowned.

She felt that Xiuguan was making a big fuss, Xiusun's attitude was respectful, and the arrangements were very thoughtful, and there was nothing wrong with bathing first and then going to meet the elders.

Xiusun stood there and gradually lost her patience, she wanted to nod sincerely, and give her an affirmative answer to see how her delicate face had twisted into strange shapes.

But. She brought Chu Pei with her words, although Chu Pei was a little troublesome, she didn't offend her, and she was an elder, so she didn't want to be shameless.

At the moment of the stalemate, Mother Cao smiled and pulled Chu Pei's arm, "Miss, why don't you go into the house and take a look at the kapok that Miss Seven prepared for you." ”

Chu Pei turned around and saw that Cao's mother's expression was slightly stiff, knowing that she didn't want to let herself get involved. smiled and said, "Yes, Xiusun, where is the kapok." Show me. ”

Xiusun smiled and jumped on the Ruyi stomping, affectionately grabbed Chu Pei's arm and raised her hand to point to the corner of the hall, and said with a smile, "Fourth aunt, look, it's right there." ”

Directly ignored Xiuguan.

Chu Pei felt Xiusun's intimacy, and remembered that Xiuguan had just said that Xiusun thought they were dirty. I feel that Xiuguan is a little nervous.

Deliberately expressing intimacy is also Xiusun's deliberate, so Xiuguan's accusations are self-defeating, hum, like your mother-in-law, she likes to send her face to others and beg to be beaten.

Chu Pei looked in the direction pointed by Xiusun, and there was a one-foot-high chiseled carved branch pattern copper flower on the ground in the corner of the wall, and the metallic luster of the red copper circulated in that limited space, showing a rare simplicity and elegance.

Two branches of different lengths of kapok branches are obliquely inserted in the flower goblet, one branch exposes two feet, and the other branch reveals a foot long, the fiery red kapok is in full bloom, and it is spread on the vigorous flower branches in twos and threes, revealing a warm sense of beauty from afar.

Chu Pei nodded, "People use porcelain vases for flower arrangement, and now you use a copper one to be unusual, it's really good-looking." ”

Xiusun grinned, her chin resting on her arm, "I knew you'd like it." Chu Pei smiled and touched her head.

Mother Shen came in from outside, "Miss Seven, it's all settled." ”

Xiusun let go of Chu Pei at this time, "Fourth aunt, you can rest first, and let's go to the Huanshi Mountain House for lunch at noon." ”

Chu Pei agreed with a smile, Xiusun jumped out of the door, and when she got to the porch, Xiusun stopped smiling, glanced at Xiuguan, passed by with an expressionless face, and took the little magpie out of the rhino hall.

Xiuguan was resentful, but he knew that he was not good at making trouble again, and at this time, two maids behind him bowed down and said, "Slave maid, let's wait for the fourth lady to bathe." ”

Xiuguan turned around in surprise, looked at the two raw maids, and asked, "Where are you?" Why haven't you seen it? ”

One of the tall maids was blessed and said, "Sister Calamus got married in the New Year, and the slaves and maids were newly transferred. "I didn't say much else.

Xiuguan was dumbfounded, "What? How I don't know. ”

She went to live in the old house in Jiangpu, it is inconvenient to bring too many people to serve, Frangipani is the most powerful person around her, of course, she has to be always around, I thought that the old lady would send another maid calamus and luggage next to her, but it was the mother Liu who didn't want to come together.

She had to leave the calamus to guard the yard, and it was fine before the Chinese New Year, but after two months, the calamus actually got married, which was incredible.

"Where did you get married?" Xiuguan asked urgently.

The two maids shook their heads and bowed down, "The slave doesn't know." ”

Xiuguan suddenly felt cold hands and feet.

In the clean room, Cao's mother was washing Chu Pei's hair, Chu Pei didn't like so many people to watch her take a bath, so the little maid put the hot water buckets in rows on the edge of the screen, and the fish went out.

Mother Cao saw that there was no one around, so she whispered to Chu Pei, "The girl did the right thing just now, and the old lady also ordered her to do so at home, telling the girl not to get involved with the fourth room." ”

Chu Pei frowned, "I think Xiuguan is not bad, Xiusun rushed us to bathe when she welcomed us in, didn't you just think we just came out of the county?" (To be continued.) )
