Chapter 33: The Banquet (2)

Xie Ping picked flowers as she walked, and after a while, there were a lot of flowers in the blue carried by the girl who followed.

"What are you doing pinching a lot, how beautiful it is to bloom on the branches, it will wilt in a moment on this hot day." Xie Fang likes these flowers, grasses, and small animals very much, so he can't see others trampling them the most.

Xie Ping said disapprerovingly, "What's this, just a few flowers, it's really stingy, go to my house tomorrow, the wood hibiscus in my yard is also blooming brightly at this time, you can pick it when you turn around." โ€

Xie Fang was still angry just now, but he was amused by Xie Ping's words, "What am I doing picking your wood hibiscus, and I can't eat it as tea, okay, don't pick it." It's weirdly hot under the sun, so let's go back. โ€

"If you don't go back, I can't see her sรจ look, whatever, the whole country girl, I really think I'm a daughter."

The little girl who was raised in a boudoir at the age of twelve or thirteen usually had too few topics to entertain. Xie Fang heard Xie Ping say this, and hurriedly turned to her.

"Hey~ What's the matter with your third sister, I remember that I came to your house at the beginning of the year, and I haven't seen you a few times, so it's like forgetting to drink medicine when I see it back."

"What forgot to drink medicine?" Xie Ping asked puzzled.

"It's just not normal." Forget jรฌ drink medicine or she learned it with wisteria, wisteria often adds some modern words to the stories it tells, and Xie Fang will also say it one or two sentences after a long time.

"Haha, Sister Fang, you're so interesting, forget to drink medicine, that's right, she just forgot to drink medicine, and she still forgets to drink medicine." The two big girls who followed behind also laughed.

"Oh, seriously, tell me what's going on?"

"If you want me to say yes, you have to promise me one condition." Xie Ping had a bad expression on his face.

"On what terms?"

"I heard that you have a storyteller, you ask her to tell us a paragraph, and I will tell you why that country girl forgets to drink medicine every day."

Xie Fang'er hesitated for a while, thinking that it would be a day for these people to make trouble today, and she didn't have time to listen to Wisteria's story, and Sun Monkey's story was in the last difficult time, so she was already worried, so it was better to find it, killing two birds with one stone.

When he turned around, he ordered Yuan Dong, who came with her, to ask her to go back and call Wisteria, but Shuangqiao next to her stood up and said, "Second Miss, let's go as a slave, I just happened to bring your fan, didn't you say it's hot?" Yuan Dong doesn't know where to put it? โ€

"Okay, then you can go quickly. It's good to bring the fan, it's really hot. In fact, Xie Fang wanted Xie Ping to see his fan. The fan was bought by the second brother from a Westerner for a large price, and it is said that the whole capital is on this one.

After saluting, Shuangqiao turned and walked back. While walking, his mind was flying, and he couldn't go on like this, so he first told a story and followed the second lady. Later, he told a story to attract Lange's attention and let the old lady remember it. A few days ago, he actually met the prince of the world with a great creation, and he also attracted Young Master Yue to speak. What kind of luck is this, now let her have a long face in front of these young ladies, then Qiu Xiang will not be pressed by her all the time. If Qiu Xiang doesn't have the opportunity to rise to the first class to be a dowry girl, then if she wants to be the second lady's companion in the future, she will have one less powerful arm to speak.

Although they are all young ladies of the Xie family, there is a first time and a second time, and the autumn banquet of the Zhongguo Mansion is not a few days away, if it is well told today, who knows if it will be pushed out by these young ladies and tell stories again that day, and then find a way to stop it, it is a matter of exhausting the brain.

Shuangqiao went back to the upper room at great speed to get the fan, and then went to the west wing where Qiu Xiang lived. Qiu Xiang was sitting on a chair in the middle hall drinking tea, and Shui Cress showed her a pair of studs that her aunt had given her, and when she saw Shuangqiao come in, she hurriedly stood up.

Shuangqiao saw that the cress was also there, so he said to the cress, "Oh, I left too quickly, and the second lady also asked me to take her bean-green sweat towel, good girl, you go to Yuanyue and ask her to take it to Wisteria, so it's good for her to bring it." โ€

"I'll just bring it back for my sister, and if my sister rests, I'll send it to the second lady, what do you want her to do when she comes back?"

"That's the case, the second miss still has a few words for me to explain to her, next time, next time my sister will arrange for you to send something to the second miss, okay?"

Shui Qin didn't doubt him, and walked out in response.

"What's the matter with my sister?" Qiu Xiang poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shuangqiao, who took it and drank it all. Looking to both sides, Qiu Xiang walked quickly into the east and west rooms, and shook her head at Shuangqiao.

Shuangqiao whispered to Qiu Xiang, and finally said, "What you said that day was right, I was too careless, I always thought that there would be no big deal, her sister was about to get married, and the rest of her alone is not a matter of our words." Now it looks like it's time to do it. โ€

That day, I learned that Wisteria was seen by the prince and arranged to talk to Young Master Yue. Qiu Xiang's handkerchief was almost torn, what kind of luck let her meet, it doesn't matter if she sees the prince talking, she can go to Canglang Garden every day, not every day you can see the prince. Since Qiu Xiang mentioned this topic to her mother, she always thought that one day she would be like an aunt, and the male protagonist was naturally placed on the prince by her.

So she went to find Shuangqiao that night, thinking about what trick to make Wisteria not go to Canglang Garden. But Shuangqiao said that when the time came, let alone her go to her, if she was transferred to serve there, it would only be good for Qiu Xiang, and how could Shuangqiao know Qiu Xiang's thoughts.

"What about my sister? Do you want her to be like Ruchun......"

"Where do you think of it, where is this? Not to mention that she is now being liked by several little masters, but no, if she does anything in this mansion, if she doesn't think about it thoroughly, she will let herself fall into it. โ€

"That's ......," Akika asked with a puzzled expression.

"You don't have to make a big mistake for her first, just add a little mess, so that the second lady and even the princes don't like her, wait for Zirui to get married, and then find a good way to let her go back to Zhuangzi."

"So what now?"

Shuangqiao took out a small paper bag from his bosom and asked, "Which is the water cup that the girl is used to?" โ€

"She is different from us, she always drinks the warm water, and does not put tea, in her house!"

Shuangqiao hurriedly stood up and entered the east room, saw a large blue and white porcelain jar on the table, looked back at Qiu Xiang, Qiu Xiang nodded. Shuangqiao shook his hand and poured the powder from the paper packet into it.

"What's, what is this?" Qiu Xiang asked with a trembling voice.

"It's not a poison, it's just a laxative. A few days ago, Liu's mother couldn't go to the toilet when she ate, so she only ate a little, and ran twice in less than half an hour, and she was accompanied by false compliments. At that time, Liu's mother also said that the medicine killed people, so she threw it there and didn't eat it again. I also had no intention of cleaning it up, but I didn't expect it to come in handy today. โ€

After speaking, he took Qiu Xiang's hand and walked out. "She usually takes half an hour to tell a story and talk less, but the young lady in the pavilion today is the first time to listen to it, and it will definitely be timeout, so it should be fine. Now wait for her to come for a while, and persuade her to drink the water. โ€

It didn't take much effort, Wisteria came into the house, and after asking the reason, he had to go out with Shuangqiao. Shuangqiao stood up and winked at Akika. Qiu Xiang settled down and said with a smile,

"Sister Wisteria is busy coming back, let's drink saliva before we go."

"No need, the second lady is in a hurry, and it's the same to drink it when you go back." Wisteria finished speaking and was about to go out.

"It's been delayed for a while, and it's going to be half an hour, and whoever waits in the pavilion will think of pouring a glass of water for my sister to drink." Wisteria thought about it the same way. First, she went to the second miss and Young Master Lang to tell stories, but no one asked her if she was thirsty. The second is that Qiu Xiang is extremely attentive to herself these days, Wisteria does not doubt him, enters the house and takes a big sip of the water cup, after drinking it feels strange in his mouth, but he doesn't care anymore, turns around and follows Shuangqiao out.

Qiu Xiang watched the two of them walk away and breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the wisteria water cup, poured the water into the basin, and filled it again.
