A red sun has gone west, and it's time to go and say hello to my mother.

Xia Xue'er got up and walked to the dresser and sat down, the woman in the bronze mirror had a beautiful face and a ruddy complexion, she had not slept so comfortably for a long time, and when she woke up, she only felt refreshed and extremely comfortable!

Seeing this, Dongmei took a basin and went out to fetch hot water, and Xianglan came forward to groom Xia Xue'er.

Xia Xue'er, who was drawing her eyebrows in the mirror, saw through the bronze mirror that the person standing behind her was Xianglan, and she was a little unaccustomed to it for a while. Her hair has always been taken care of by Qiu Ju, how could she not be seen today?

So he asked, "Where is Qiu Ju?" ”

Xianglan held a wooden comb in her hand and gently flowed down her black hair, and after hearing this, her hand moved slightly, but then she returned to a warm smile on her face, and replied with a smile: "Today, the slave maid will groom the young lady, and the young lady will give the slave a chance to become familiar with it!" ”

Xia Xue'er vaguely felt that something was wrong, Xianglan rarely smiled like this, and the smile on her face at the moment was obviously concealed.

So she put down the eyebrow pencil in her hand and turned her head to stare at Xianglan, there was a trace of displeasure between her eyebrows, and there was a sternness in her words.

"I'm asking about Qiu Ju's whereabouts, why do you care about him?"

Xianglan was frightened, hurriedly took a step back, bowed her head and saluted, and said, "The eldest young master has something to do, so Qiu Ju will go." ”

After hearing this, Xia Xue'er felt a trace of incomprehension in her heart, when will her little-known little maid be able to help her eldest brother?

He raised his eyebrows and said, "You go on." ”

Xianglan saw that Xia Xue'er didn't plan to delve deeper, so she breathed a sigh of relief, got up and continued to comb her hair, while Cuizhu, who was making the bed, still looked worried.

Madame was not in Yalanxuan, Xia Xue'er pounced. When Qing'er saw her coming, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Madame was summoned into the study by the master, is the young lady going into the house and waiting, or will she come back tomorrow?" ”

Xia Xue'er waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's just the sunset now, I'll just sit on this porch and wait." ”

After that, she really chose a good position to watch the scenery in the corridor and sat down, Qing'er didn't say anything when she saw her like this, and quietly retreated.

"Cuizhu, has there been any progress in the things I told you before?"

“……”

However, the only answer to her was the gentle evening breeze.

Xia Xue'er turned her head suspiciously, only to see Cuizhu standing behind her absentmindedly, and she didn't know what her little head was thinking, her eyes were empty and distant.

So he stretched out his hand and poked her, while calling: "Cuizhu? ”

"The slave is here!"

Cuizhu suddenly came back to her senses, stood up straight and replied loudly, this sudden reaction startled Xia Xue'er!

"Is something wrong? It's just in the house to see that you're preoccupied! ”

Cuizhu bit her lip after hearing this, as if she had made a lot of determination, and said tentatively: "Miss, there is something that the slave maid doesn't know whether to sue you or not......"

"If you have something, just say it."

"Yesterday, Mu Gongzi came."

Xia Xue'er didn't think of who Mu Gongzi was in Cuizhu's mouth for a while, so she asked inexplicably, "Which Mu Gongzi?" ”

"It's Mu Feiyang's son."

"Oh."

After Cuizhu mentioned it, Xia Xue'er remembered that there was also Mu Feiyang. No wonder she can't remember, the two haven't seen each other since they met him at the birthday party a few months ago, and they haven't heard anything related to him, plus since that day, Xia Xue'er's life has become a mess, and her worries can't be dealt with, how can she have time to recall the person who never had a good feeling!

"He's here to listen to Yuxuan?"

"No, it's the eldest young master who came to find him, but the eldest young master asked the guards to take him to the master's study."

Xia Xue'er didn't spill the slightest surprise after hearing this. When they met for the first time, she guessed that this Mu Feiyang, who seemed to be just an ordinary rich son, his true identity and background were by no means as simple as they seemed on the surface!

In addition, when Bai Yining tried to detain her with a stinky hat of an unruly and private meeting with a strange man a year ago, the other party happened to be Mu Feiyang, and at that time she boldly used her own guess to fight back, and the old lady's reaction was exactly as she predicted!

But then Xia Xue'er felt that something was wrong, Mu Feiyang came to the house to find her eldest brother and father, but Cuizhu had been preoccupied, why did she react so fiercely?

So he asked again: "Is this matter related to Tingyuxuan?" ”

Cuizhu shook her head and said helplessly: "The slave doesn't have any exact news, so I don't know whether to tell the young lady or not." ”

Xia Xue'er knew that Cuizhu was a safe person, if she hadn't revealed any clues, she wouldn't have been so panicked and overwhelmed.

"Cuizhu, I know what kind of person you are, and you have seen my transformation, so you don't have to worry about what you know will affect me. The so-called hole is not empty, there is no wind, what do you find but it doesn't hurt, if it is worth worrying, it is good to have a preparation in advance, if there is nothing wrong, then it should be regarded as gossip and listen to it! ”

After hearing this, Cuizhu decided to put aside all the worries in her heart, and decisively squatted down beside Xia Xue'er, and replied: "The relationship between Mu Gongzi and the eldest young master is already good, and he is willing to come to the mansion often. But what is unusual is that when the guards came to report yesterday, there was a thick sadness between the eyebrows and eyes of the eldest young master, and the two eyebrows were also tightly frowned together, and ......"

Cuizhu wanted to speak and stopped, Xia Xue'er hurriedly asked, "And what?" ”

"Moreover, the eldest young master whispered a few words to the young lady before leaving, and the slave maid was the closest, so he vaguely heard the content of those words."

"What are you talking about?"

Cuizhu looked directly at Xia Xue'er's eyes full of doubts and anxiety, and replied solemnly: "Son's trip is a blessing or a curse, but the eldest brother has not."

The law gives you any guarantees, only do your best! ”

Xia Xue'er frowned after hearing this, it seems that Mu Feiyang's trip yesterday has more to do with her, and it can even be said that it has a heavy relationship! Only, what does it matter?

Suddenly, Xia Xue'er seemed to remember something, stood up suddenly, and shouted loudly: "Qing'er, Qing'er!" ”

"It's coming!"

Qing'er was cleaning the side hall, and suddenly heard this hurried shout, thinking that the third lady had encountered some trouble, so she hurriedly dropped the feather duster in her hand and ran in the direction where Xia Xue'er was.

As soon as Xia Xue'er saw Qing'er, she hurriedly asked, "How long has Madame been there?" ”

Qing'er didn't know why, and Mu Mu replied, "The lady that Miss Shuang'er didn't come to invite from time to time has been gone for two hours. ”

"Is it the lady that Frost has come to invite?" Xia Xue'er suddenly raised her voice, "Didn't you say that your father summoned you?" ”

Although Qing'er didn't know why the third lady was so shocked, she still nodded and replied: "Exactly, Miss Shuang'er came to pass the word, and the old lady is also in the master's study." ”

Xia Xue'er faintly felt uneasy after hearing this. The eldest brother said that Mu Feiyang's trip didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, his mother left the yard for two hours after recovering from a serious illness, and even the old lady who had a lot of doubts and concerns about her daughter-in-law could stay with her daughter-in-law for so long, it was not normal, it was really abnormal!

The well-known dispute between Xia Xue'er and the old lady in the backyard a month ago, Qing'er was also at the scene, and since then Xia Xue'er has left her the impression of a strange woman who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and at this moment, looking at her so nervous expression, Qing'er unconsciously followed up with nervousness.

It's not a way to stand like this, Qing'er looked at the hour, and then said: "This point is estimated that Mrs. will come back soon, if the third lady is sitting cold, then go into the house, and the slave will go and pour tea for the third lady." ”

However, Xia Xue'er didn't seem to hear what Qing'er said at all, and quickly passed past her by picking up her skirt.

"Miss, where are you going?"

Qing'er shouted at a loss behind her, but she didn't get half an answer, and Xia Xue'er quickly disappeared from sight.

Seeing this, Cuizhu hurriedly trotted and followed.

"Huh? Eh! ”

Qing'er looked at the two masters and servants in a hurry, and helplessly put down the arm that was still raised in mid-air, wondering whether she should also catch up?

Xia Xue'er was windy under her feet, walking very fast, Cuizhu hurried behind her, and almost ran away half of her life, only then did she see Xia Xue'er who was fixed in place a hundred meters away from the master's study.

Cuizhu, who was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist, looked up at Xia Xue'er who was standing straight in front of her, her face was not red, her heart was not beating, and there was no trace of exercise at all, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Xia Xue'er was worthy of being a martial arts cultivator!

But why didn't she go in?

"Miss?"

Xia Xue'er turned her head to look at the panting Cuizhu, made a silent gesture, and then turned her head away, without saying a word, standing upright.

Seeing this, Cuizhu understood what the young lady meant, and hurriedly suppressed his wheezing voice, careful not to make any weird noises.

Although she couldn't hear anything except the occasional gliding birdsong, she knew that Xia Xue'er, who had deep internal skills and excellent ear skills, could take all the conversations in the house into her ears.

About half an hour after touching it, Xia Xue'er suddenly raised her feet and walked towards the study, she had basically figured out the cause and effect of the matter, whether it was a blessing or a curse, it was a disaster that could not be avoided, and now it was time to talk about her thoughts in person.

"Xue'er has a few words to say, may I ask my father, can my daughter go in?"

Xia Xue'er didn't break in directly, but raised her hand and knocked on the door politely, and after asking such a sentence, she stood at the door and waited patiently.

The old lady, the old man, the lady, the eldest young master, all the authoritative figures in the entire Xia Mansion gathered in the study, and the discussion on one thing was in full swing. And Xia Xue'er's sudden voice broke the excitement inside, and the four people who originally expressed their opinions fell silent all of a sudden, and the room was suddenly silent.

"Come in."

Hearing this, Xia Xue'er pushed the door in, and quickly became the focus of the whole room, and there was not a pair of eyes in the room that did not fall on her, and the feelings mixed in it were different.

After Xia Xue'er entered the door, she first saluted everyone, and then swept over the four people with different eyes one by one, as if she had seen them through, and finally looked at her father and said, "My daughter has something that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

"Tell me what to say."

Since she was a child, Xue'er has watched her father and mother love each other and respect each other like guests, so she is determined to marry a confidant in the future and stay together. And what the elders are discussing today is closely related to Xue'er's future, but no one thought to ask Xue'er's opinion, so Xue'er is very aggrieved. ”

Xia Xue'er said pitifully, and after hearing this, the rest of the people were silent, deeply ashamed of their actions. Only the old lady disagreed, and said after sneering heavily: "Since ancient times, men and women have been married in accordance with the orders of their parents. ”

After the old lady said this, Xia Xue'er didn't think it was strange, if the old lady didn't refute her, it would be strange! She calmly looked at her father and mother, and neither of them said anything to refute them, as if they held the same opinion. I sighed in my heart, no wonder the two of them, who let her cross over to a dynasty bound by feudal etiquette!

But this matter is closely related to her future, how can she give up fighting back lightly?

You can only strive for your own happiness!

Xia Xue'er walked to the old lady's side and said, "The word "happy" is the word "happy" when tying the knot, what is happiness? If you can't do two little guesses, you have to be happy with each other. But the matter of proposing marriage is obviously wishful thinking on the part of Mu Gongzi, and I have no true feelings for him, how should Xue'er deal with herself after she really marries? ”

Although this was said to the old lady, it was said to the other three. She knew that the old lady only cared about whether this matter was profitable for the Xia family, and she didn't care what kind of situation she would encounter after she got married.

Xia Qingxuan sighed and said, "Xue'er, do you know that Mu Gongzi is not an ordinary person, he is ......"

"It's the prince!"

Before Xia Qingxuan finished speaking, he was kidnapped by his daughter. Everyone was stunned for a moment, how could she know that the two were really in touch in private?

"Mu Gongzi's words and deeds are full of majestic atmosphere, although the clothes and services are simple, but the selection of materials is superior, so I boldly guessed that he is the son of the royal family, now look at the expressions of the elders, then I guess correctly!"

Xia Xue'er was so smart and clever, and she was extremely keen, she once again amazed everyone, and Mrs. Xia was really relieved, so that there was no personal relationship between her daughter and Na Mu Gongzi.

Only the old lady had mixed tastes in her heart. As her own granddaughter, this Xia Xue'er not only has a beautiful appearance, but also has a good blue heart, and she is indeed a good helper who can support her face. But now, her relationship with Xia Xue'er has become stiff, although it is not to the point of incompatibility, but how can she, who has always been in power, allow others to challenge her authority? In this case, all the advantages of Xia Xueer are real obstacles for her!
