Chapter 135: Quarrel
Yuan Xiang bowed her head lightly, then lowered her head and stared at a branch of Chao Lotus on her knees, and stopped talking.
Lu Qinghuan noticed that the flower on Cui Yuanxiang's knees must have just been picked, and the white lotus petals were still stained with a few crystal morning dew, with the unique chill of early autumn, and the faint fragrance came to the nose.
Her eyes fell on Cui Yuanrong's shoes, and found that the hems of her skirts were all wet, and the shoes were also stained with a lot of river mud.
Thinking like this, Cui Yuanshuang, who had been snubbed, pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "What! You came with me, but now you're coming in, what did you just do? ”
"Siniang, Liuniang said she wanted a lotus, I went to help her pick the flowers, I'm really sorry, I've made you wait for a long time!" Yuan Rong explained with a slightly apologetic smile.
"Silly child, Yuan Xiang finally wants to come out for a walk, so you can accompany her more!" Xie Shi instructed two sentences, and asked the maidservants to bring food boxes and tea.
"It's rare for you to come here, so stay for dinner later!" Xie said, beckoned the maid to come over, and was about to arrange lunch, but heard Yuan Rong say: "Auntie, don't be busy, when I came, A-Niang told me a thousand times, saying that my aunt was busy, remember not to disturb my aunt for too long!" If it weren't for Yuan Rong's aunt's tightness, she wouldn't be embarrassed to come today! ”
"You kid!" Xie had no choice but to give up, but the smile on her face became more and more amiable, which showed that she really loved Yuan Rong.
Also, the Xie family only has one son, Cui Jun, and he must be very envious of the other houses having a lady, and Cui Yuanrong is sweet-looking. has a good temper and is also considerate, so Xie naturally treats her differently.
A few more gossiped for a while. Cui Yuanshuang squeezed Yuan Rong several times, but she was confused by her words, so she seemed a little interested, so she drank the tea in front of her sullenly.
Lu Qinghuan was not familiar with them, although Yuan Rong was very kind to talk to her, and it seemed that she had the intention of making friends, but after all, she had only met for the second time. The two don't talk much, and there is nothing to talk about.
As for Yuanxiang, from beginning to end. I didn't say a word, I just stared at the white lotus on my knee, and I didn't know what to think about it.
So the only people who chatted the most were Xie and Yuan Rong.
Lu Qinghuan sat on the side and was bored. It's hard to interrupt them. I had to keep my eyes on the large plate of refreshments placed in front of me.
The refreshments were colorful, and the most attractive of them was a kind of mint green translucent pastry, which made people immediately whet their appetite when they saw it. She twisted a piece, put it to her mouth and took a bite, the refreshing feeling mixed with a faint sweet fragrance instantly spread on her lips and tongue.
"Well, it's not bad." Lu Qinghuan thought silently. The hand subconsciously picked up another piece.
She eats elegantly and doesn't eat quickly. But one by one, when Yuan Rong got up to say goodbye, a large plate of pastries in front of him was only half of it in a blink of an eye.
Xie Shi noticed that most of the pastry plates on Lu Qinghuan's table were empty, frowned, gave a few orders to the maid beside him, and said to Lu Qinghuan: "Qinghuan must have never tasted Chang'an's pastries?" If you like it, my aunt will prepare some and you can bring them back later! ”
"Then thank you aunt!" Lu Qinghuan didn't blink an eyelid, and immediately agreed, I'm afraid only she knows how embarrassing she is at the moment!
Cui Yuanshuang over there also immediately noticed it and laughed loudly: "What a country girl who has never seen the world!" Even a refreshment is greedy! ”
Lu Qinghuan rolled her eyes speechlessly, she just ate a few more pieces because she was bored, and besides, if she was greedy or not, what did she have to do with others?
What a nosy!
"Siniang, isn't the pastry that Auntie took out for us to eat? Presumably, the cousin is afraid of dampening her aunt's good intentions, don't say such ugly words! Yuan Rong couldn't help but come forward and stand on Lu Qinghuan's side.
As soon as she finished speaking, the trace of displeasure on Xie's face immediately dissipated, and she nodded and praised: "It's still Yuan Rong who knows me, and my aunt didn't hurt you in vain!" ”
After speaking, he waved his hand, made a slightly tired look, and said lightly: "It's not too early, you should also go back, and greet your Aya Aniang for me." ”
"Yes."
Yuan Shuang didn't dare to make another attempt, glared at Yuan Rong indignantly, and bowed out of the room.
After saying goodbye to Xie here, Yuan Rong pushed Yuan Xiang's wheelchair and walked outside, and when she passed the threshold, she personally carried her outside the threshold with the maid, acting cautiously and looking very intimate.
Lu Qinghuan has a very good impression of Cui Yuanrong, and decided to go back to Cui Mansion in the future, and he must have more contact with her.
Just as he was in a trance, Xie ordered someone to pack the pastries and brought them over.
"Qinghuan, you take it back and try it, if you like to eat it, go back and send some to you every day."
"Thank you, aunt! Qing Huan will go back first! ”
After taking the pastry, Lu Qinghuan led Yingge and fled out of the yard.
As soon as he got out of the hospital, Lu Qinghuan couldn't help but sigh faintly: "Yingge, do you think I'm not too much like everyone's ladies?" ”
"The lady asked this, did she want the maid to answer?" Yingge's face was expressionless, and even her voice was flat and straightforward without any emotion, looking straight ahead and mending the knife lightly: "If you want to hear good words, the maid has to lie, if you want to hear the truth, the maid doesn't dare to speak out!" ”
Lu Qinghuan turned around and glared at her: "What else do you dare not say out?" You're done! ”
The two of them were arguing, and not far ahead, Cui Yuanshuang's voice came, and there was a faint voice of Cui Yuanrong, and it seemed that the two were arguing.
Yingge frowned and said lightly: "Is the lady going?" ”
"Where are you going?" Lu Qinghuan subconsciously asked, only then did she realize that she was talking about Cui Yuanshuang and Cui Yuanrong......
After thinking about it, Lu Qinghuan still decided to go over and take a look, after all, Cui Yuanrong had helped her out of the siege just now.
It was only a few steps away, Lu Qinghuan walked over to take a look, and sure enough, it was Cui Yuanshuang pulling Cui Yuanrong, muttering something in her mouth, and seemed to be a little angry with her. Cui Yuanxiang sat in a wheelchair, only one step away from the two, and lowered her head as if she didn't hear the sound of the two arguing.
Lu Qinghuan didn't rush to approach, but chose a relatively hidden position and listened carefully to the conversation in front of him.
I only heard Cui Yuanshuang scolding: "You cheap billet, you are just a little girl, and you dare to rob Langjun with me, you wait for me to go back, you must sue my mother, and when the time comes, you and your fox mother will be driven out of Cui's mansion!" ”
“…… Siniang! How can you spew blood! Cui Yuanrong was obviously a little troublesome, and explained with red eyes: "I didn't rob Langjun with you, I don't even know about it!" ”
"You don't know? You wouldn't know? Cui Yuanshuang was angry and said angrily: "My aunt said that Xie Jiulang looks down on me and wants to withdraw from the marriage, but you still say you don't know?" (To be continued.) )
