Chapter 61: Clothing Damage

Grandmother Xiao's conjecture Xiao Lei and Shi Manman didn't know at all, and she didn't expect that Grandmother Xiao would associate the immortal cultivator with Shi Manman.

From that day until the Mid-Autumn Festival, Grandmother Xiao would ask her grandmother to bring all kinds of fabrics, heads, and jewelry to Qiansuju every day. Shi Manman saw that those treasures that were enough for ordinary people to fight for a lifetime could not be exchanged, they just accepted them indifferently, and there were no other superfluous expressions.

Sun Niang conveyed Shi Manman's attitude to Grandmother Xiao every day, and Shi Manman's cold temperament and indifference to worldly property alone made her more affirmative.

Early in the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yalian used unprecedented enthusiasm, urging and helping to put on the soft silver light lily skirt for Shi Manman.

"The girl in the day can not bring these heads, tonight the house will hold a 'moon festival', the girl can't be so casual." Yalian picked out a golden silk nanmu hairpin from the dressing box, inserted it into the stone vine bun, and her critical gaze swept the back of the stone vine's invisible head.

Worship the moon is a solemn thing whether it is in Shicheng or this country, every Mid-Autumn Festival, ordinary people will wear new clothes, rich people will wear costumes, and the official gentry and royal family will be held as a grand ceremony, in order to ask the moon god to bless people and families.

"Can the moon really bless the family with a complete and harmonious family......" Shi Cranberry twisted a butterfly hairpin and swirled, and the whirling butterfly flew at her fingertips as if it was alive.

"Girl, don't talk nonsense, or the moon god will hear it and will suffer calamity." Yalian was startled by Shi Manman's words, and looked around thoughtfully, seeing that she seemed to be hiding someone in the shadows.

Shi Manman was speechless, and continued to rotate the butterfly hairpin between his fingers.

Human beings have always believed in people and things that they have never seen and imagined. It seems that this spirit has sustenance, and there is an excuse for who is responsible for the harm and who blesses it, as if it has nothing to do with themselves.

Yalian was accustomed to Shi Manman's intermittent distraction, and after making a pot of tea for Shi Manman, she didn't follow her to serve, and went to chat with other maids under the porch of a certain wing.

"Stone girl." Shi Manman raised his eyes to look at the sun in the sky, and Sun Niang would come to her courtyard to deliver something at about this point every time.

"Aunt Sun is here." Shi Manman also called Sun Niang like Xiao Lei.

"Hey, why are you alone in this house? Where are Yunbi and the new maid? Aunt Sun glanced at the empty room, and only Shi Manman was drinking tea alone.

"Yalian went to chat with other maids, and Yunbi went to Xiaolei Courtyard." Yalian hurried back under the news of a little maid, she thought that Sun Niang was too busy to come over today's Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Slave maid...... The slave maid had just gone to inquire about the moon sacrifice. Yalian gasped slightly outside the door and hurriedly explained.

"Miss Shi, you are not familiar with the Xiao Mansion, so you can't let your subordinates snub you because of this, and you should be punished. You are not an outsider, please familiarize yourself with the rules of the Xiao family earlier. This maid is a person in your courtyard, and it is not easy for the old slave to act as a substitute. Sun Niang's words were straightforward, and of course Shi Manman understood what she meant.

"The vine wrote it down." It's not that Shi Manman is unwilling to go to Liwei, for her, these little maids and subordinates can't pose a threat to her. If you want to kill her, the people of the entire Xiao Mansion together may not be able to hurt her a single hair. Hurt her reputation? This kind of ethereal thing only works in the world, she is a demon, why should she care about this.

Shi Manman's perfunctory words made Sun Niang very dissatisfied, and when she went to talk to Grandmother Xiao, Grandmother Xiao said that she just waved her hand and said lightly: "Let her be." ”

On late autumn nights, the lights of thousands of homes dispel the cool chill. Xiao Fu lit the lampposts in every corner, and the firelight was reflected like daylight, and he could clearly see every road under his feet without the need for lantern lighting to guide the way.

Today's dinner is held in the Yi Xin Xuan of Xiao Mansion, which is the back garden of Xiao Mansion, with patchwork rockeries, artificially dug lakes, and the moon shadow of Repulse Bay.

When the stone vines came, the garden had been arranged, and the incense hall of the table was placed in strict accordance with the full moon in the sky, and the osmanthus pattern felt under the incense case was neatly placed. Behind the incense table is a gorgeously carved table of eight immortals, and the tableware has been arranged.

The ritual time of the moon sacrifice is harsh, and the dinner begins at the beginning of the ceremony, and the incense is burned. The incense must stop eating before the actual moon festival.

As the stone vines dragged a silver dress into the seat, the bright moonlight sprinkled on her dress, reflecting the stone vines in the hazy glossy gown, making her only beautiful face look like a fairy.

Xiao Lei has always known that this goblin can often give people an illusion of being fairy, just like now, with the moonlight as the background, she is like a fairy stepping on the moonlight, and her appearance is in the noble cold light.

"The people are here, and the time is just right. Let's start the dinner. Grandmother Xiao looked at Shi Manman's noble appearance without a trace of human fireworks, and even more confirmed the guess about Shi Manman in her heart.

After Xiao Yuan and Shi Manman visited Grandmother Xiao on that day, they were called by Grandmother Xiao again. Since that day, he has never interfered in everything between Xiao Lei and Shi Manman. Although Xiao Yuan's grandmother said yes to his advice, she didn't believe it in her heart. Where are there so many gods and ghosts, the most important thing is that he can't believe that the person he hates has that identity.

Xiao Jin still had a decent smile on his face, looking at the stone vines that came one after another. But Yunxi, who was standing beside her, was not as friendly as Xiao Jin, she boasted of her delicate appearance, but seeing Shi Manman's elegant appearance made her feel reluctantly inferior.

Aunt Liu may have a foot injury that has not healed, and Grandmother Xiao is rare not to see the trouble and even allows her to have a seat to sit. But I don't know if it was the miserable whiteness of the moonlight that reflected Liu Yemei's face, making her complexion even worse than Xiao Jin, who was still a little sickly.

Yalian followed behind Shi Manman, with the moonlight on her back and her head slightly bowed, she was blocked by a shadow, and her face couldn't see what her expression was. At first, along the way, I was amazed by the extravagant decoration of the Xiao Mansion for this night of worshipping the moon, but it seemed that after seeing the master of the Xiao family, he quietly changed his person.

Shi Manman glanced slightly sideways at Yalian, who was no longer speechless, and continued to walk forward without asking about her strange appearance.

Or even Bright Moon was jealous that Shi Manman appeared at this moment and took away its dazzling, so he heard a crisp "tearing" sound on Shi Manman's body.

When Shi Manman appeared, everyone consciously calmed down, and this crisp sound made everyone present change color, but everyone's expression was different.

Xiao Lei's depression, Xiao Jin's doubts, Xiao's grandmother's anxiety, Xiao Yuan's frowning, and Liu Yemei's sympathy in surprise.

Only the person concerned still had a cold face, and he didn't even find out where the noise was coming from his body. After quietly taking in everyone's expressions, he looked back at Yalian, who was also confused but with a hint of nervousness, without any change in mood, and Yunbi, who gloated for a moment in his eyebrows.
