Chapter Eighty-Three: Stay
People say that there are no more than three things, Chu Xiuyi feels that Xiusun has repeatedly questioned Chen Zhixian's way of being a father, which is a bit rude, and he wants to remind Xiusun to save some face for Chen Zhixian.
Suddenly, I heard someone questioning how nosy his family Xiusun was, and immediately had the idea of protecting the calf, what's wrong with my sister, what my sister said is the truth, this Chen Zhixian Jinyu is ruined on the outside, and his own house is not good to manage, if it weren't for his family Xiusun reminding, this female doll is not raised crookedly by the black-hearted aunt, and his family Xiusun is a big benefactor.
Helplessly, this is the Chu family, they are guests, he stands in the position of the host, and it is not good to protect his sister, so he has to go to see who the person is first.
Xiusun and Chen Xu also looked in the direction of the voice, the person who came was dressed in a blue-gray Songjiang cotton cloth, with soap boots under his feet, the non-reflective fabric well restrained his tall and majestic figure, and the crow-blue collar and belt reflected the crow-like black hair.
The sideburns are like a knife, the broad and square forehead is circled, and the eyebrows are flying into the sideburns, and the two deep nicks in the center of the eyebrows cannot be hidden.
He is pursing his lips at the moment, and his chin line is even harder, and the warm afternoon sun shines on his face through the young leaves fluttering in the wind, and with the wind flickering brightly and darkly, looking at the past from the perspective of Xiusun looking up, it is really a bit of the majesty of the gods.
How could this person, Xu Jingxing, be here?
When Xiusun saw him, a spirit took a step back, only to feel that his cheeks were hot like a big iron kettle that boiled water, and the next moment he could spray hot smoke from the spout of the pot.
Why, why every time she sees this person, she is in a state that is not quite normal.
Either lost, bare-slip, or ...... Uh, in the shrew scolding street.
Moreover, Xiusun glanced at Chen Xu resentfully, he was still in the same league as the big embroidered pillow.
It doesn't make sense.
Xu Jingxing also saw Chu Xiusun, and immediately recognized her, and the surprise in his heart was not small, but he covered it up well, and his cold tsundere face didn't seem to fluctuate.
After thinking about it, he was relieved again, the hot spring Zhuangzi he broke into that time had already been checked, it was the wife of the Chu family's old four rooms and eight wives, I heard that Chen Xu and the Chu family were related, and he came to Pukou to take office, so he followed, I wanted to try my luck, but I didn't expect him to be so lucky, and he actually took a look at this little girl directly.
He stared at Chu Xiusun intently, seeing that her clothes were crumpled, and she was holding a little girl in her arms, which was Chen Xu's daughter, the two buds on her head were messy like peony flowers that had been destroyed by a shower all night, and there was still a trace of blood on the top of her head, and her little face was red, like a red persimmon in winter.
The little girl stared straight at him, her big grape-like eyes full of surprise and grievance. She also recognized him, Xu Jingxing couldn't help but laugh.
Xiusun felt like a mouse who had met a cat, except for the moment he recognized him, his body was completely uncontrollable, and he couldn't move.
Chu Xiuyi noticed Xu Jingxing's burning gaze, he didn't understand why the heroic man in front of him looked at his sister with such interested eyes, he stepped forward without a trace, reported his name, and blocked Xu Jingxing's sight by the way.
"It turned out to be the eleventh son, fortunately, this is?" He gestured behind Chu Xiuyi.
Chu Xiuyi lowered her eyes and said respectfully, "It turned out to be the grandson of the Duke of Wei, and he has admired it for a long time." This is the housemate. "Didn't say much.
Chen Xu gradually regained a trace of clarity from the various changes in Fang Cai, and greeted Xu Jingxing, "Jinde, but the second old lady's tea is ready?" "Jinde is Xu Jingxing's word.
Xu Jingxing slapped him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "That's nature, the tea has already been ready, if you don't go back, there will only be white water left." β
"Wait." Chen Xu grabbed him, turned to Xiusun and said, "Can you trouble Miss Chu to take care of the little girl for me?" He pointed to Linghui's mud and looked at Xiusun with some embarrassment.
Xiusun didn't look at his expression carefully, just hugged Linghui and straightened her body, and said respectfully, "The little girl is in a hurry, and she is offended, please forgive me for being young and reckless, if Lord Chen can be trusted, the little girl will take Linghui back to the yard to freshen up." β
Chen Xu waved his hand again and again, "Miss Chu, where are you talking about this, you are also concerned about the safety of the little girl, so do what Miss said, and I will send someone to pick up Linghui later." β
"In this way, the little girl will retire." Xiusun was solemn again, took two steps back, and went to the inner courtyard with Linghui in her arms.
Chu Xiuyi also saluted and followed Xiusun into the inner courtyard.
Looking at Chu Xiuyi and Chu Xiusun, one tall and one short, followed by a maid, and a group of three disappeared around the corner of the verandah, Chen Xu retracted his gaze, he looked at Xu Jingxing and asked, "Jinde, do you know her?" β
Of course, he could see that Xu Jingxing was different from that Miss Chu, because he never bothered to take a look at irrelevant people on weekdays.
Xu Jingxing shook his head slowly with a cold chin, his eyes were still fixed on the direction in which they disappeared, and instead asked, "Yanyan, do you think that Miss Chu is a little weird?" "Proverbs are the words of clichΓ©.
Chen Xu pursed his lips and carefully recalled the scene just now, he squinted his eyes and said with some hesitation, "It seems a little strange, she seems to have known me for a long time, and she is also very familiar with things in my family." β
Xu Jingxing turned his head sharply when he heard this, "Did you know you for a long time?" Then he muttered, "You mean, it can't be right?" β
Chen Xu looked at him and nodded, "Today is the first time I've seen this girl, I'm ten percent sure." β
"Oh." Xu Jingxing didn't ask anymore, and patted Chen Xu's shoulder, "Go back, don't let the old man wait for a long time." β
After hesitating for a moment, he said again, "The child is straightforward, don't take it to heart, Mrs. Sister-in-law must know how much you care about Linghui in the spirit of the sky." β
Chen Xu gathered his thoughts, sighed, and smiled bitterly twice, "Everyone says that I know what I know, but now it seems that there is no young girl who is careful, and I am sorry for her." β
He didn't say exactly who this "she" was.
Xu Jingxing only patted him on the shoulder and didn't speak.
The two went back to the second old lady's study side by side.
The second old lady was sitting in front of him making tea, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he smiled and said, "Come on, come on, it's just the third course, this color and aroma have come out, come and taste it." "It's like greeting my juniors, and I don't ask why I've been there for so long.
Chen Xu didn't sit down, but gave the second old lady a respectful look to the end, "Second old lady, the younger generation has just arrived, and the county office hasn't been cleaned up yet, can you borrow it here for a few days?" β
The second old lady raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression remained unchanged, and she smiled kindly, "What's so difficult about this, just now you also mentioned that the sixth old lady of my family is your cousin, and they are all from your own family, don't be polite, I'll send someone to clean up the yard for you." β
Seeing Xu Jingxing beside him, he said, "Your cousin accompanied her mother-in-law to the incense today, and she can come back tomorrow, so it's better for the grandson to stay and say hello to your cousin tomorrow." β
Xu Jingxing and the third wife Ji are also related, and they should call the third wife their cousin.
Xu Jingxing hurriedly saluted and thanked him, "The second old lady has tormented her nephew, so call me Jinde." β
Xu Jingxing is the cousin and nephew of the third wife, the third wife is the daughter-in-law of the second old lady, and Xu Jingxing is of course the nephew.
In this way, the two relied on climbing relatives and settled in Chu's house. (To be continued.) )
