Shen probably also knew that his question was really a bit abrupt and unruly, so he didn't dare to look at Xia Xue'er in a dignified manner, only lowered his head slightly, pretending to be shy, but he couldn't help but keep rolling his eyes up, wanting to see what Xia Xue'er's expression was at this time, and it was also like fifteen buckets fetching water in his heart, for fear that this sister-in-law was still resentful of the mistakes made by her daughter in a moment of confusion, so she refused.

The subordinates serving on the side are all Xia Xue'er's cronies, and they are all deaf and clear-sighted girls, Shen's words really opened their eyes, and they couldn't help but want to laugh. The previous Shen family's various things are not strange now, this has dragged on for a long time, and it is tea and dinner, what I originally wanted to say was just to find a good family business for my daughter who was not angry.

looked at his own lady in a blink of an eye, and it was even more indifferent. As if he already knew the purpose of Shen's trip, not only did he not show any surprise, but he didn't even raise his eyelids, he only picked up the chess game he had dropped earlier, turned the page, held the book in his left hand, and held the chess in his right hand.

Jian'an Hou Mansion has not been in contact with An Guohou Mansion for so many years, but now he suddenly sent someone to send a post, and also named Mrs. Yao and his beloved daughter to attend, in addition to wanting to tie up with An Guohou Mansion and rebuild with this younger brother who was once regarded as a burden to him, more importantly, with the purpose of attracting others and strengthening the pomp.

From ancient times to the present, there is no emperor who will not weigh the pros and cons. Jian'an Hou and An Guohou, who is beneficial to his rule of the country, who will only drag him back, his heart is as bright as a mirror. And isn't the move of the Marquis of Jian'an today's a testament to its decline?

Even if Xia Qingxuan has not been a marquis for a long time, even if he is counted as a rising star, but because of the profound heritage of the Xia family and the support of the Zhao family in Jiangnan, it can definitely be said to be a bright and dazzling star in the capital, and it is a survival that cannot be ignored, and it is naturally a target for the powerful.

Because of this, with the attendance of Mrs. Anguo and her daughter-in-law, on the sixteenth of this month, the marriage of the prince of Jian'an Houfu will be unprecedented! Among them, in addition to the people who want to take the opportunity to make friends, there are also people who have the same purpose as the Shen family, and most of the young ladies and young masters of each family will also appear at the wedding banquet.

The Shen family wanted to send Xia Qiaoyun to such an environment, and they must have taken a fancy to the intersection of the powerful at the wedding banquet. And judging from Xia Qiaoyun's appearance tonight, she is not unaware, and it can even be said that she has the same idea as Shen. The Shen family wants their daughter to take the opportunity to get a good family, and Xia Qiaoyun wants to marry a wishful husband, which is understandable and human, but they seem to ignore the most important survival rule in this deep-walled compound.

Seeing that Xia Xue'er didn't reply for a long time, Shen couldn't help but raise his head to look, but saw that Xia Xue'er's face didn't change, she was only focused on solving the mess, her eyelids drooped, and she couldn't see what was in her eyes, so she was even more anxious. I just wanted to speak, but I was preempted by Dongmei's little girl.

"Forgive the slave and maid for talking too much, my aunt asked this question strangely, and the young lady is not easy to answer."

Dongmei took a cup of hot tea as she spoke, half-bent over and sent it to Xia Xue'er, Xia Xue'er took it and took a sip, not as fragrant and sweet as she had drunk before, but with a slight sense of bitterness.

Shen was already a little impetuous, and when he heard Dongmei say this, he was even more anxious, but because he was asked for help, and the identity of the other party was very different, so he couldn't bear it, but there was still some complaining in this tone, "Why is it not easy to answer?" Even if the second miss was wrong before, she is always your sister, and this is also the matter of the third miss. ”

Xia Xue'er handed the cup back to Dongmei after drinking tea, even after listening to Shen's sour words, she was not half moved, but Dongmei was very uncomfortable, so she opened her mouth and shot back, "Auntie's words are light, and my young lady is not in charge of everything in this house, nor is she the maker of many rules, what kind of attitude does my aunt let Miss meddle in this matter?" ”

Dongmei's girl is sharp, and she only has three or two sentences that make Shen unable to answer. Xia Xue'er really praised her in her heart, don't look at her young age, she always looks naughty and weird on weekdays, in fact, she also has a delicate heart, and she is also a person worthy of trust!

Qiu Ju stood aside, although she had a heart, she didn't dare to say it unscrupulously like Dong Mei, and rolled her eyes to look at Shen's deflated expression and the slightly raised corners of her young lady's lips, and at this time, there was a little envy and admiration in her heart.

"Bang", with a crisp sound, Xia Xue'er's white child that had been held in her hand for a long time finally fell, and she smiled happily when she looked at the broken chess game on the small case. Throwing down the chess game in his hand, he looked at Shen. Qiu Ju hurriedly came over quietly, picked up the chess game lying on the side, and put it back on the bookshelf.

"In Go, there is "potential" and "land", "land" is visible growth, and "potential" is the accumulation of the possibility of winning in the future. However, if you take the momentum, you will lose the ground, and if you take the land, you will lose the momentum, and you can't have both the fish and the bear's paw. ”

Cuizhu returned from errands, and before she entered the house, she saw that Shen's maid was still waiting outside the house, and she couldn't help frowning slightly, and when she stepped in, she happened to hear Xia Xue'er's words, and she couldn't stop admiring it.

Life is just like this chessboard, whether to value the immediate interests or bet that tomorrow will be better, each is a choice, although it is full of too much uncertainty, but sometimes knowing how to look far is the king, otherwise there will be no "put a long line to catch a big fish" this said!

It's just that I don't know if Shen will understand the meaning, she is very smart, but smart is not necessarily wise. Wise people have a heavy heart for gains and losses, and wise people have the courage to give

Xia Xue'er also saw Cuizhu's figure, and saw that she nodded at herself, so she stood up calmly, smiled at Shen and said: "There are more than three hundred and sixty intersections on the chessboard, and each point has a completely different meaning. Now that the time has passed, I am also tired, so I will not keep my aunt more. ”

The Shen family really didn't understand the meaning of Xia Xue'er's words, and only thought that she was unwilling to help her daughter, otherwise, with her identity as the eldest sister of the Xia family, what could she not do? I wanted to put out my old face and say a few more words, but Xia Xue'er's eviction order was so clear that she didn't want to continue to lose face, so she simply turned around and went out.

Looking at Shen's somewhat indignant back, Xia Xue'er sneered, it was really stupid! Then he turned his gaze to Cuizhu and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
