Chapter Ninety-Five: Sister
Xie Hao didn't know anything about what was happening in Chonggui Courtyard, and after she came back from Puyu Temple, she didn't have time to go to Xie Yu to play again, so she only helped her mother Li Shi clean up the house.
It turned out that her sister, the adopted daughter of Fourth Master Xie, Fifth Miss Xie Yun was coming back.
Xie Zhen almost forgot that she had such a sister.
In that life, she and Xie Yun were at odds, and no one wanted to accommodate anyone, so her grandfather made the decision to let Xie Yun move out of the courtyard to live, and then she followed her grandfather to Shangjing, and she never paid attention to Xie Yun's news again, I don't know who she married in the end, and I don't know if she escaped Yan Ming's killer.
Reliving a life, she thinks everyone thinks it is cute and amiable, and she will definitely be able to get along with Xie Yun in the future and make up for the regrets of that life.
Xie Zhen moved the best ornaments in her house to Xie Yun's house.
Master Xie Si and Li Shi were very pleased.
Master Xie Si even said that he would buy her another better one.
Xie Hao hurriedly stopped, she didn't mean to change to a new ornament.
Two days later, at night, a sedan chair was carried into the house from the side door of Xie's mansion.
Xie Zhen had already rested, so she didn't know that Xie Yun had come, and when she got up the next day, when she went to greet her father and mother, she couldn't help but be startled when she saw the beautiful girl next to her mother, and she didn't realize for a while that this was her sister.
I really can't blame her, after more than ten years, she really can't remember what Xie Yun looks like.
Fortunately, as soon as Li Shi saw her, he greeted her affectionately, and finally relieved her.
"Zhen'er, come and meet your sister."
Xie Zhen suddenly realized, so she pretended to be shy and well-behaved, and stepped forward to call her sister sweetly.
Xie Yun smiled and took her hand, took off a gold bracelet from her hand and put it on Xie Zhen's hand.
Xie Zhen was not shallow-eyed, nor was she pretentious, she accepted it generously, and rubbed her robe twice before she raised her head and smiled sweetly at Xie Yun.
"Thank you, sister."
A hint of surprise flashed in Xie Yun's eyes.
Before she went to live in the other courtyard, Xie Zhen was indeed very disgusted with her. She was still a little nervous when she came back this time, so she only made up her mind to follow Xie Zhen as much as possible, but she didn't expect Xie Zhen to change so much.
She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, and when she spoke to Li Shi again. The expression is also a lot more relaxed.
Li Shi asked her about the food and clothing in the other courtyard, whether the subordinates were obedient, and so on.
Xie Yun replied one by one with a smile.
Xie Zhen listened silently on the side, feeling a little emotional.
Sister Yun is five years older than her, and her style of action is much calmer than her, and she doesn't look like a boudoir girl. On the contrary, it is very housewife-like.
Such a lovely person, who is lucky enough to marry in the future, it must be the ancestor who has accumulated virtue, right? Xie Zhen smiled secretly in her heart.
Although Xie Yun said that she was fine in the other courtyard, Li Shi's face sank when she saw the maid she brought.
What can a seven-year-old girl do?
"Where's Emerald Ring?" She frowned and asked, "I sent her out to serve you, did she do her best?" ”
Xie Yun said with a smile: "Sister Cuihuan is not young, and the family is in a hurry, so I will let her go back to get married." ”
"Then you only have this little maid by your side?" Lai asked.
Xie Yun still smiled and nodded, "There is nothing going on in the left and right yards, mother can rest assured." Can't tire me. ”
Li Shi frowned, and wanted to say something about this matter.
Xie Zhen said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, my sister will not go back to the other courtyard when she comes back this time, there is a lack of maids around her, and my mother will point out another one to my sister." ”
Xie Yun looked at her and was even more surprised.
Is she actually keeping herself?
Li Shi thought it was a good idea, so he patted Xie Hao's head approvingly, and then turned his head and told Aunt Ci to choose a few well-behaved maids to bring in.
The aunt answered, but only for a moment. So he came back with three maids.
Li Shi let Xie Yun make his own decisions and choose a satisfactory maid.
The three maids all knelt with their heads bowed.
Xie Yun asked them to raise their heads one by one to look at their appearances, and when they saw that they were all good-looking, they couldn't help but bend their lips.
"It's you." She stretched out her hand and pointed to the middle of the road.
The maid then kowtowed. I've met the new master.
Li Shi believed that the people selected by Aunt Ci were not bad, so he had no objection to Xie Yun's choice, as long as Xie Yun was happy.
The mother and daughter then retreated, and talked in the house for a long time before having lunch together.
After that, Xie Zhen stayed at Lai's place to study witchcraft. Xie Yun went back to the room.
There was an embroidered screen carved from ebony wood in the wing, and she had already learned from her subordinates that it was specially sent by Xie Hao.
Every ornament in the room seems to have been arranged by Xie Zhen herself.
Xie Yun swept the room with a faint expression, and those delicate ornaments did not make her show a happy expression.
The maid who followed the new master was a little uneasy because she had never been in contact with Xie Yun and couldn't figure out her temper.
But there's always a good way to be courteous.
The maid carefully poured her a cup of tea.
"Miss." She said respectfully.
Xie Yun bowed slightly, but did not reach out to take it.
"Let's put it on for now, I don't want to drink tea yet."
The maid felt that this new master was even more difficult to get along with, so she had to put down the cup, and stood behind the new master with her head down, not daring to make her own assertions.
Xie Yun asked, "What's your name?" ”
The maid replied, "Slave Qiao'er." ”
"Qiao'er?" Xie Yun repeated it softly and shook her head slowly, "This name is not good, too vulgar." ”
The maid fell to her knees and begged her to give her a name.
Xie Yun didn't think much about it, and said casually: "You will call the pomegranate in the future!" ”
Originally named Qiao'er, the maid who is now known as Pomegranate is a little dumbfounded.
To be honest, pomegranate is also a very vulgar name.
"How?" Xie Yun raised his eyes and said, "You don't like it?" ”
Where did the pomegranate dare to offend this new master, so he had to kowtow and thank him repeatedly.
Xie Yun nodded with satisfaction, stood up, opened his hand, and rested under the service of the pomegranate.
Summer afternoons are the hottest and dreary.
The maids, who were keen to chew the root of their tongues, were also disinterested, and only leaned against the pillar or lay on the table one by one.
The huge Xie Mansion did not seem to have any sound except for the noise of cicadas.
"Sss Su Bai gasped and slowly opened his eyes, but he couldn't see anything.
It was pitch black all around.
He seems to have been locked up in a secret room or something, but I don't know why the ruthless young master wants him to lock him up, and what he wants to do.
He reached out and groped on the ground, trying to get to his feet.
The action involved the wound on his body, he gritted his teeth and reached out to press his chest, and the texture of the fabric came from the palm of his hand, thinking that someone had helped him bandage the wound.
There seemed to be someone outside the house.
"Are you awake?" The voice asked.
Although he couldn't see people, Master Su Bai still adhered to his usual qualities and bowed in the dark.
"Exactly."
"That's good." The voice continued, "I have a question for you." ”
"Excuse me." Su Bai Dao.
"Who are you looking for in the house?" The man asked.
Su Bai fell silent.
"Who are you looking for in the house?" The man thought he didn't hear clearly, and he raised his voice and repeated it again.
Su Bai smiled apologetically.
"Please forgive the little monk for not being able to."
The people outside the room seemed to be so angry that they kicked over their chairs. (To be continued.) )
