Chapter 54: Carelessness
The lunch dishes were naturally rich and delicious, and the four girls had a lot of fun together. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info after the table was withdrawn, they moved to the small room to drink tea and chat.
"Sister Huilan, the three of us have performed today, and you are the only ones left, so you are not allowed to cheat!" Ruan Minyu remembered this stubble, hurriedly put down the teacup in her hand, and reminded.
Chen Huilan glanced at her and said with a smile: "I know that you have been thinking about it, don't worry, there is a dance studio in this Xiaoyinwu, and I will show you later." ”
Ruan Minyu was extremely excited when she heard this: "Sister Huilan wants to dance for us?" That's great! I've never seen you dance. He turned his head to Wang Jin's eyes and smiled: "Sister Jin'er is really a coincidence today, let's have such a lively time, and we can also watch Sister Huilan dance, I haven't had such fun for a long time, Sister Jin'er, you have to come often!" ”
Although Wang Jian smiled brightly, he said: "If I am free, I will definitely come to play with my sister often." "But in my heart, I am a person who has to support my family, and there are not many opportunities to be empty.
Lin Zhixiu, who was on the side, also said: "Yes, we will often get together in the future, there are not many opportunities like this." He asked Chen Huilan curiously, "Why have I never heard of my sister learning dance skills before?" ”
Chen Huilan smiled lightly and explained: "Actually, it's not a serious dance, it's just that my mother asked someone to teach me some movements in order to train my posture and manners, so don't laugh at me when I see it later." ”
"How can it be, Sister Huilan learns everything quickly and well, and this dancing is definitely not a problem!" Ruan Minyu grabbed Chen Huilan's arm and said coquettishly: "Why don't we go now, I can't wait to see my sister dance!" ”
Chen Huilan couldn't stand it after being ground by her for a while, so she had to agree: "Okay, okay, I'll go after drinking this cup of tea." As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Jin's teacup, and scolded Xiaolian beside him dissatisfiedly: "Miss Wang's cup is empty, why don't you know how to refill it?" ”
Xiaolian hurriedly confessed, stepped forward and picked up the teapot to refill the teacup for Wang Hibiscus, and the action was so fast that Wang Hibiscus didn't have time to stop it. I don't know if I was distracted by being reprimanded, the teacup was full, Xiaolian still didn't stop pouring tea, and the overflowing tea flowed onto Wang Hibiscus's skirt. Because Wang Jian was wearing a gauze skirt today, she quickly got wet. Fortunately, the tea is not hot, otherwise it would be too unlucky.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Wang, the slave and maid should be damned, it's all the slave's negligence!" Xiaolian, who reacted, hurriedly knelt aside, and kept apologizing and apologizing while taking a silk handkerchief to clean up Wang Hibiscus.
"Why are you so careless today, look at Miss Wang's good dress, where are the rules you have learned on weekdays!" Chen Huilan frowned and reprimanded.
"It's okay, the weather is good today, and it will be dry in a while." Wang Jin didn't care that her skirt was wet, but she couldn't bear to look at Xiaolian's sincere and frightened look.
"What kind of body is this, how can there be girls wearing wet clothes, not to mention that this skirt is so light, it's not good for outsiders to see it." Chen Huilan disagreed, "I usually bring a change of clothes when I go out on weekdays in case of emergency, but today it can come in handy." It just so happens that there is not much difference between you and me, so why don't you change it on, and it is good to change it out and dry it. ”
Seeing that she was so considerate of herself, Wang Jin couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Whether she is hostile to herself or kind to herself, why is it more and more difficult to understand?
"Miss Wang dislikes my clothes and doesn't want to change them?" Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Chen Huilan said jokingly and tentatively.
"Ah, no, no, I'll change it, this one on my body is really wet, it's good to dry it." Wang Jian hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"Then Xiaolian, you go and get your clothes, Miss Wang and I are waiting for you in the dressing room of the dance room." Chen Huilan turned her head and instructed Xiaolian, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Xiaolian exited the room in response, and Chen Huilan said to Ruan Minyu: "Then you and Sister Zhixiu will wait a while, and I will take Miss Wang to change her clothes." ”
Wang Jin followed her out of the room and into an extremely spacious open room at the other end of the verandah.
Chen Huilan took her to a screen compartment in the open room, asked her to sit and wait, and said that she would go out to urge Xiaolian first. Wang Jin saw that there were only two of them here, and it was a good place to talk, so he stopped her and said sincerely: "Miss Chen, I can't hide it, I received your invitation yesterday, but I didn't really want to go to the appointment. There are a lot of inaccuracies in what I've said before, and it's right for you to be mindful of me because of that. But today I realized that I was a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and Miss Chen didn't take my nonsense to heart at all. So I would like to take this opportunity to open up and apologize to you. ”
Chen Huilan was first surprised, and then suddenly, took Wang Jin's hand and said cordially: "The so-called don't fight and don't know each other, Miss Wang and I are also fateful people, so there is no need to mention the past." We're going to get along well in the future. After speaking, she patted Wang Jin's hand, "You wait here, I'll go out to see why Xiaolian hasn't come yet." ”
Almost trotting, Chen Huilan came out of the open room. She walked quickly towards the backyard, and within a few steps she ran into Xiaolian, who had returned from picking up her clothes.
"Where have the people gone?" Chen Huilan asked anxiously.
"Miss Yu, it's almost time to get to the gate of the front yard, and the people we arranged are waiting there." Xiaolian immediately replied.
"That's good." Chen Huilan breathed a sigh of relief, and urged, "Quick, you send the clothes quickly, don't delay the time." ”
"Yes." Xiaolian hugged her clothes and ran all the way towards the open room.
Chen Huilan stood in place, glanced deeply at the gate of the courtyard, and then turned around and walked towards the tea room where Ruan Minyu and the others were.
"Sister Whelan, are you back? What about Sister Jin'er? Ruan Minyu saw Chen Huilan coming in from the door alone, and couldn't help asking.
"I'm here to invite you to come over, Miss Wang estimates that this will be changed soon, let's go over together, and I'll dance for you later." As she spoke, Chen Huilan pulled Ruan Minyu and Lin Zhixiu up from the mat and walked out the door.
The verandah was only a few dozen meters away, but Chen Huilan felt as if a few hours had passed. finally walked to the door of the open room, but heard Ruan Minyu exclaim: "Who are you?" How did it end up here? ”
It turned out that in the open room, there was a young man in an ochre-colored magnolia robe, wearing a golden crown, standing in front of the screen compartment, as if he was looking inside, and his movements were quite obscene and sneaky. Hearing Ruan Minyu's voice, the man turned around, and after seeing the three of her clearly, he stepped forward with an extremely surprised expression, "Sister Huilan, it turns out that you are here, that damn dog slave actually brought me here, fortunately I didn't miss it." Saying that, he took out a round-bellied white jade box from his cuffs, handed it to Chen Huilan, and said diligently: "This is the jade dew that my uncle specially brought from the capital, my daughter has the best at home, you can take it back and use it!" ”
Chen Huilan saw that the expected plan was not realized as scheduled, and she was already angry and angry in her heart, and at this moment, she listened to He Qingxian talking to herself so affectionately and enthusiastically, completely ignoring the presence of others, and she was even more ashamed, and the hand hidden in her sleeve trembled faintly, almost unbearable. She took a few deep breaths and asked as calmly as possible, "Gongzi He, why are you here?" ”
"Sister Whelan, do you know him?" Ruan Minyu asked curiously.
"Look at me, I forgot to introduce it. This is the second son of the He family. She also pointed to Ruan Minyu and the two of them and said to He Qingxian, "These two are the young ladies of the Ruan family and the Lin family. ”
"But the He family that once produced a scholar?" Lin Zhixiu asked.
When He Qingxian heard this, he immediately bowed and said, "Exactly." Miss is so knowledgeable. There was a bit of smugness in his tone, which made Chen Huilan extremely disgusted and disdainful. Even if his family used to worship Shangshu, it was a few generations ago, and now the most prosperous official fortune of the He family is just a Langzhong, and the grade is not as good as his father. Now the He family is just relying on the shadow of their predecessors and eating some old books, and this He Qingxian is even more of a straw bag, so his father has taken a fancy to him!
"I didn't know that the two young ladies were here today, otherwise I would have prepared a lot of gifts, and now it is really a bit rude." He Qingxian said to Lin Zhixiu rather apologetically.
"In that case, then I'll be exempted from this, and next time I have the opportunity, Gongzi He will send one to each of us." Chen Huilan said lightly, looked into the room again, and asked, "When Gongzi came in, was there anyone in this room?" ”
He Qingxian was stunned when he heard this, and said with a slightly unnatural expression: "No, no one." The servant who led the way only said that Whelan brought me here because you were here, and who knew that there was no one in there. ”
Ruan Minyu frowned puzzled, just about to speak, she felt that her sleeves were pulled, and when she turned her head, she saw Lin Zhixiu shaking her head slightly towards herself, although she didn't understand why, she also knew what Lin Zhixiu meant, so she didn't speak.
Chen Huilan saw that the plan failed, and she really didn't want to see He Qingxian, so she dealt with him hastily and asked someone to send him out.
As for Wang Jin, she was being held in Jiang Qingliu's arms in her disheveled clothes at the moment, hiding under a clump of cannas behind the open room.
