Facing Xie Ning's slightly cold attitude, Xia Rouyu pursed her lips, the smile on her face was very shy, and she said softly: "Cousin Xie, I am new to the capital, and I don't know anyone. I heard that you are very good friends with Miss Gongzi in the Guogong Mansion, can you introduce me later? ”

Before Xie Ning could say anything, Mama Qin, who was sitting next to Xie Ning, asked in a cold voice: "When you first entered the capital, how did you hear that she was befriending someone?" ”

"This ......" Xia Rouyu's voice choked, her eyes were full of water, as if she was greatly frightened, and glanced at the maid beside her as if she was asking for help.

The maid immediately raised her voice and said, "You mother-in-law, why don't you understand the rules at all." Our young lady is talking to Miss Xie Biao, how can you interrupt casually? Such a slave and maid also dare to bring it out for entertainment, Miss Xie Biao is really well taught. ”

Innocently affected, although he heard the finger Sang scolding Huai in her words, Xie Ning had no intention of responding, but secretly sneered in his heart. Even Mama Qin dared to provoke, this little girl was really blindless.

Sure enough, Mama Qin just glanced at the maid lightly, then withdrew her gaze and said disdainfully: "If you want to teach others, you must also weigh your own catties in advance." I'm old, but not everyone can talk nonsense. ”

The little maid was also quick to talk for a while, and now when she saw Mama Qin's non-angry and self-righteous appearance, she stopped her mouth in a daze.

"Cousin Xie, this grandmother, Xiaoxuan is protective of me, so she will lose her words for a while. In short, it's all Rouyu's fault, please don't take it to heart. Xia Rouyu lowered her head and said.

Looking at the woman opposite with a look of tears, Xie Ning couldn't help but feel a little disappreciative in his heart, and after glancing at Mama Qin, he resisted the urge to pinch the corners of his mouth, and comforted him coldly: "Cousin Xia is serious." Mama Qin is a teaching mama that our Hou Mansion has worked hard to invite. Xiaoxuan has just arrived, and it is common sense not to know the identity of Mama, Mama has always been generous, how can she take it to heart? Don't worry about my cousin. ”

"Rouyu doesn't know the identity of Mama, and she is a little neglected," Xia Rouyu raised her head when she heard the voice, and there were tears in her eyes, "Please forgive Mama." ”

Xiao Xuan also hurriedly echoed: "The slave maid has no intention, please also ask the grandmother to do a lot, don't be weird with me." ”

Mama Qin just glanced at them, and said lightly: "The matter has come to this, it doesn't matter." ”

Looking at the slightly stiff faces of the master and servant, Xie Ning resisted the urge to laugh secretly, thanks to Mama Qin's blessing, and rode quietly all the way to the carriage.

After arriving at the Wei Mansion, Xia Rouyu walked towards the Gao sisters, Xie Ning did not step forward to play the role of sisterhood with them, and was about to follow the guidance of the servant woman to find Wei Tingcheng, but was stopped by the Xiang family, "Ning'er, wait for the banquet to begin, you still follow me, don't walk around." ”

I didn't expect to hear a "Ning'er" from Xiang's mouth, Xie Ning raised his eyebrows almost invisibly, turned around, and met her with a loving look, and couldn't help but gently pull the corners of his mouth. If it weren't for her deafness and sight, I'm afraid she would think she was dreaming.

Secretly sneering to himself, Xie Ning reacted very quickly and glanced at the servant woman who was speaking for Wei Qingcheng, and looked at Xiang with a little embarrassment, "Uncle, Miss Wei called someone to pick me up, thinking that there is something important to tell me first." You can rest assured, Ning'er has always been measured and will not walk around. ”

Although he didn't know Xiang's intention to keep her by his side suddenly, Xie Ning keenly sensed the danger from her unusual attitude. If something goes wrong, it must be a demon, so she won't act according to Xiang's wishes. What's more, the two of them have always looked at each other and hated each other, if they really stayed in one place all the time, even if the Xiang family didn't care, Xie Ning would not be able to stand it.

Xiang still wanted to make a sound, but Mama Qin stepped forward and said lightly: "The girl's family always has a lot of considerate things to say, so I guess Mrs. can also be considerate." I see that the maids around Miss Xie are very stable, you don't have to worry too much, why don't you accompany the old man to the banquet for a while, how about it? ”

Xiang's eyes flashed, then he turned around and helped Mama Qin's arm, held the elder's shelf, and said to Xie Ning: "Since Mama said so, you can go quickly." Don't make Miss Wei wait for a long time, pay attention to your words and deeds, don't be rude, go early and return early. ”

Xie Ning smiled at Mama Qin, answered "yes", and followed the servant woman to Wei Chengcheng's boudoir.

When the two arrived, Wei Tingcheng was still dressing up in the room, and before the servant's report sounded, she saw Xie Ning's figure in the mirror, and immediately stood up from the dressing table and greeted him affectionately, "Sister Xie." ”

Looking at Wei Tingcheng's sweet smile, Xie Ning's mood also improved a little, and as soon as her heart moved, she stretched out her finger and hooked Wei Tingcheng's chin, and teased: "Which beauty is this, I almost can't recognize it if I don't see it for a long time." ”

Wei Tingcheng's face turned red, and he became shy again, and took a step back and said, "Sister Xie, don't make fun of me." ”

"I mean it from the bottom of my heart." Wei Chengcheng wore a lilac-colored Hunan skirt today, and her hair bun was decorated with white Nanzhu, which greatly matched her temperament. The elaborate dress with the ruddy complexion made her more radiant than before.

"In my opinion, Sister Xie is unrecognizable." Wei Tingcheng glanced at Xie Ning and said seriously.

Under Mama Qin's teaching, Xie Ning has indeed made some progress, at least much better than the scarlet dress when he first arrived at the Hou Mansion. Xie Ning smiled at Wei Tingcheng and asked out loud, "Okay, why did you remember to invite us to the flower banquet?" ”

"It's my mother who wants me to do it," in front of Xie Ning, Wei Chengcheng is far more open than in front of the living, and after the two get acquainted, her lively side will be shown from time to time, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet my mother first." ”

"Huh?" Xie Ning was pulled out by Wei Tingcheng, "Why isn't Mrs. Wei at the flower banquet?" ”

Wei Tingcheng didn't stop, turned his head and explained to her: "My mother is not in good health, and the social exchanges in our house have always been presided over by my grandmother. ”

"I see," Xie Ning nodded, and couldn't help complaining about Wei Tingcheng: "Why didn't you tell me earlier, so that I could prepare a small gift for my aunt, it's better than going to visit empty-handed." ”

The number of gifts she heard from Mama Qin. If it is an ordinary elder, naturally there is no need for Xie Ning to be attentive. But she has always been good friends with Wei Tingcheng, and when she is invited to the door, it is not good to be empty-handed. Originally, the Hou Mansion had already prepared a courtesy, so she didn't need to worry about it, but now that she had to go to visit Mrs. Wei alone, she would inevitably be rude.

"It's okay," Wei Tingcheng understood what Xie Ning meant, and smiled at her soothingly, "Sister Xie is here, so why do you need to bring any gifts?" ”
