Chapter Twenty-Six: Yang Xiao'er

After resting in the space for a night, he continued to hurry at dawn, and finally arrived at the south gate of Mengjin City at midnight, where the gate was closed at night and opened in the morning. When Yan Xiaoyue was about to pay the entrance fee to the city, she heard a familiar call: "Sister, sister benefactor", turned her head to see if it was the young lady Yang Xiaoer who was saved yesterday.

Yang Xiao'er ran over quickly, took Xiaoyue's hand, and said happily: "Sister, we are really fated, last night I was still begging the Bodhisattva to let me see my sister again, I didn't expect the Bodhisattva to really appear, you must go back to the house with me today, I asked my father to thank you well." ”

Yan Xiaoyue smiled and said: "Hehe, I can see that I have nothing to do with the Bodhisattva today, that road only leads to the direction of Mengjin City, and you look like you are also in a hurry, so it is nothing if we meet at the gate of the city." It's just that now I have to go back first, or my family will be worried. ”

"Miss, since this little girl also lives in the city, you will make the next post when you go back, and invite the little girl to come to the house to play. If we don't go back, I don't know what the master will be in a hurry. After speaking, Uncle Shan bowed to Xiao Yue, "Thank you really yesterday, girl, otherwise the consequences are really unimaginable, it is inconvenient to speak here, please tell the girl where you are staying, and I will personally send you a post in the afternoon." ”

Yan Xiaoyue saw that he was so sincere, so she said where she lived.

Yuelai Inn, Yan Xiaoyue and Jin Hui had lunch just now, and they were chatting, and the shopkeeper respectfully led Uncle Shan to knock on Xiaoyue's house. Jin Hui opened the door and invited someone to come in, Uncle Shan held the red invitation card in both hands, "This is written by my young lady, please come to the house tomorrow to get together, and there will be a carriage waiting for the girl to drive at the time." ”

This ancient man just likes to chew words and listen to them tiredly. Yan Xiaoyue took the invitation, "Uncle Lao Shan has gone on a trip, Xiaoyue will definitely go to the meeting on time tomorrow." ”

This is the first time that Xiaoyue officially went out as a guest, Jin Hui and Jin Xiu discussed for a night, and repeatedly regretted not making more clothes, more jewelry, and finally Xiaoyue decided to wear red, as Xiaoyue got bigger and bigger, the appearance gradually grew, and the appearance became more and more exquisite, the skin was fair and exuded a jade-like luster, the eyebrows were affectionate, the nose was small and straight, the cherry lips were not dotted and Zhu, and the skin was more tender and smooth when wearing red.

At the beginning of the next day, Jin Hui woke up Yan Xiaoyue, served and carefully washed up, and then ate some breakfast at will, and pulled Yan Xiaoyue into the room to change clothes. Although it was October, it was still quite hot at noon in Lingnan, and Xiaoyue wore a moon-white embroidered wide-sleeved shirt with a cross-collar, a long skirt with blue grass, a red caftan with a pink shawl, and red embroidered silk shoes. He had his hair combed on his head, tied with a silver bell and red hair rope, and a pair of skein silver bracelets on his hands.

After dressing up, I stood up and asked them to check it carefully, only to see that the maids were in a daze, it was really beautiful. Jin Xiu nagged: "It's all because Miss is too lazy on weekdays, and she always doesn't want to buy clothes and jewelry, and she doesn't want to dress up more, so that we are useless, Miss can't be like this in the future, or the slaves and maids feel that they are redundant." ”

"Oh, my good gold embroidery, Miss knows that you are the best, don't you see that I was placed by you from head to toe, how can I leave you, it's too late to rejoice you, why are you superfluous, I will be angry if I say this again." Yan Xiaoyue hurriedly told forgiveness, these little maids didn't know what was going on, Jin Qiao was better, and the other three she suspected that Tang Seng was reincarnated, otherwise she would have nagged endlessly if she caught something.

Satsuki looked at what she was wearing again, she was very beautiful, but she didn't know if it would be too hot when she came back after wearing so much? Look at Jin Hui again, they are also dressed well, they are all wearing green skirts, yellow pullover and half sleeves, and they look energetic.

At the beginning of the day, the shopkeeper came to report that there was a carriage in the house to pick him up. Xiaoyue took the four maids downstairs and asked Old Man Zhang to guard the walk. Got on the carriage for a quarter of an hour, stopped in front of the side door of a high-walled compound, Jin Hui and they got off first, and then helped Xiaoyue out, at this time a mother stepped forward and said with a smile: "This is Xiaoyue girl, what a beautiful little beauty, the slave family is our young lady's nurse Xiao's mother, originally Miss was going to come out to greet her, but yesterday she was a little frightened, and the slave was bold to stop, the girl please forgive me." ”

Yan Xiaoyue said softly: "Mother Xiao is polite. How is your young lady now? ”

Xiao's mother replied: "It's okay, but I didn't sleep last night, and I was resting in the room." Come on, Miss Satsuki will sit down first, and let's go in. After speaking, he led Xiaoyue to sit in a soft sedan chair, and the two stout mothers-in-law carried it, but it was very stable, this rich and noble family is different, and you have to take a bridge to walk such a little way.

The side door came in and there was a garden, and the chrysanthemums in the garden were blooming extremely brilliantly at this time, Yan Xiaoyue looked straight and sighed, this garden that is taken care of by someone is different, and it is meticulous and meticulous everywhere. After walking in a sedan chair for about a quarter of an hour, she stopped, and Zhang's mother lifted the sedan curtain to shade the sun and personally helped Xiaoyue out.

Looking up, the three words of Xiaoxiang Courtyard on the door were written very uprightly and magnificently, quite in the style of everyone, and Xiaoyue was overjoyed to see it. Now Yan Xiaoyue is still insisting on practicing calligraphy, but there must be no way, the real good stickers are all privately collected, and she has no way to get it, so she can only sigh that the words do not match. I didn't expect to see such good words here.

"Sister, you're here. It's all my fault that my body is not angry, or I should go to meet you. Yang Xiao'er, who was standing at the door, hurried down to greet her, and her face was even more pale in a yellow Confucian skirt.

Yan Xiaoyue took Yang Xiao'er's hand and said, "You have called me sister, and you are still saying kind words." Why is your face so pale, but you haven't rested well? ”

Yang Xiao'er pulled Xiaoyue and walked towards the house, "Good sister, come with me, let's go to the inner room to talk." ”

Entering the inner room, the overall layout is mainly light yellow and light green, which is very elegant and in line with Yang Xiaoer's temperament.

Through exchanges and conversations, I learned that the two were born in the same year, Yan Xiaoyue's birthday on March 28, and Yang Xiaoer's birthday on November 26, it was a coincidence, Xiaoyue was just about eight months older, so this sister was decided. didn't say a few words, Yang Xiao'er kept calling her sister, and Xiaoyue also called her Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoyue asked Jin Hui to take out the dim sum and preserved fruits she brought, which she made in the space last night, Xiaoxiao liked it very much, especially the dried honey strawberries, and ate five or six grains in a row before washing her hands and rinsing her mouth under the persuasion of Xiao's mother. smiled at Xiaoyue embarrassedly and said: "Sister made you laugh, I'm not in good health, my mother won't let me eat sweets, and today I still have my sister's blessing to eat such a good preserved fruit." ”

Yan Xiaoyue likes this girl's true temperament very much, and she doesn't fake it, so she smiled and said: "It's nothing funny, it's not a big deal, it's all homemade, you like to eat, I'm giving you more." ”

Xiaoxiao said happily: "That's good, sister, your chef's skills are really good, my chef's dim sum is very ordinary, but there are a few of her specialty dishes, try it at noon today." I don't think your accent is like a native of Lingnan County, so try Lingnan cuisine today to see if it suits your appetite. ”

Xiao Yue was a little delayed, "How embarrassing is this?" ”

Xiaoxiao said coquettishly: "Good sister, you can stay with me, there are only two people in the family, me and my father, my father is too busy to accompany me all day, you can stay with me as a companion!" ”

This coquettish demeanor coupled with Wu Nong's soft words makes people feel refreshed, Xiaoyue just said a word to Xiaoxiao like this, and I stayed unconsciously, and ate the lunch introduced by Xiaoxiao, the taste was not bad, it was all light and light.

Take a break after dinner, and accompany Xiaoxiao to do some needlework in the afternoon, not to mention that Xiaoxiao is young, but the fishbone embroidery and flat embroidery stitches are arranged neatly and evenly, and the orchids embroidered on the handkerchief are lifelike, vivid and aura.

Yan Xiaoyue looked at Xiaoxiao's handkerchief and said in surprise: "Xiaoxiao, you embroidery is really good!" ”

"It was Mr. Xu who taught me to be a female celebrity, she used to be a first-class embroiderer in the embroidery room, and then she came to the house to teach with bad eyes, but my student is stupid, and now I will embroider flat embroidery and fishbone embroidery, and I haven't learned it well after half a year." Xiaoxiao blamed herself.

Yan Xiaoyue comforted: "You are good enough, I haven't even learned flat embroidery well, usually Jin embroidery helps me prepare." ”

Xiaoxiao Zhengse said: "Women's morality, speech, appearance, and work, this work is mainly reflected through female red, so my grandmother invited Mr. Xu into the house when I was five years old, and Mr. Xu said that I wanted to learn five kinds of needlework before I was in front of the hair." I don't know if I can learn it well? ”

Yan Xiaoyue looked at Xiaoxiao, sighed that it was not easy for this wealthy lady, and comforted: "You work so hard, it must be no problem!" ”
