Chapter 243: Roasted White Cranes

Seeing that Xu Qiyu was so loved by everyone, the ladies of the Xu family in Xijing City were all moved. It's just that I'm afraid of Mrs. Guo, and it's not too obvious.

However, Mrs. Qiao, relying on Xu Ting's recent official fortune, hardened her waist in front of Mrs. Guo, and immediately smiled and said to Xu Deng: "Sister Yu is really innocent, good-looking, worthy of being a girl of our Xu family." ”

Xu Deng squinted, very happy about Mrs. Qiao's upper path, turned his head to look at Xu Qiyun, and said to Mrs. Qiao: "Your sister Yun is also good." ”

Mrs. Guo was already unhappy in her heart, and Mrs. Qiao was naturally even more unhappy when she behaved like this in front of Xu Deng. At the moment, in a polite tone, he said: "Sister Yun is naturally good. But among these girls in our family, the most sensible and filial is Sister Yao, but unfortunately Sister Yao got married early, and I really don't want to let her out. ”

Xu Qirong frowned, thinking in his heart that Old Lady Guo still couldn't speak now. She likes Xu Qiyao in her heart, and naturally thinks that Xu Qiyao is very good. But Xu Qiyao's little ability, when it is in front of others, is a little insufficient.

There are many little ladies in the world! Among the little ladies she has seen, those who are better than Xu Qiyao are also the majority.

However, when the elders spoke, there was no room for their little ladies to intervene, Xu Qirong pursed her lips, looking indifferent and light-hearted, anyway, no matter how Xu Guo's no, it had nothing to do with her.

Sure enough, as soon as Xu Guo's words came out, Xu Deng and the others frowned. In front of many juniors. Xu Deng didn't say anything about Xu Guo's family, but said: "The girls of our Xu family are naturally excellent." I think Sister Yun is very good. ”

Xu Deng felt that Mrs. Guo couldn't get on the big stage. How can you refute the face of a person in front of a room of juniors, and praise a junior who is not present?

Mrs. Qiao secretly glanced at Mrs. Guo and didn't say anything else.

Xu Qixuan leaned into Xu Qirong's ear and whispered: "Who is Sister Yao?" Sounds weird and indecent. ”

Xu Qirong choked, and subconsciously thought of the name of the girl in the Willow Lane of the Smoke Street, and his face turned red at the moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. explained: "That's our eldest sister Xu Qiyao, listening to the order of the fifth uncle and grandfather, we should call her the second sister now." I've been married for several years. ”

Xu Qixuan suddenly realized: "Eighth uncle and grandmother like the second sister very much? ”

Xu Qirong nodded. When Xu Qiyao was at home, Mrs. Guo favored Xu Qiyao, no less than the elders of the ancestral family doted on Xu Qiyao. It's just that Xu Qiyu is the youngest little lady in the ancestral family. It is understandable that the grandparents spoiled her. Xu Qiyao is the eldest of them!

Xu Qixuan pouted. Some disagreed: "How much can you like it?" If you really like it, how can you marry such a name that is easy to be called wrong! ”

Xu Qirong subconsciously felt that Xu Qixuan's words were wrong, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find anything wrong, so he had to purse his lips and let Xu Qixuan mutter, but he didn't answer.

Then I saw a maid running over with a red face and saluting in a proper manner. said to Xu Deng's family: "Back to the words of the fifth old lady, the kitchen ladies have prepared a banquet. The seventeenth lord specially arranged the banquet in the Songhe Hall, where there were two white cranes in the yard, and the seventeenth lord said that it should be interesting to eat the banquet there. The old men and the old ladies are gone. ”

Xu Deng sighed and asked, "Where did you get the white crane?" Although it is spring now, there is still some inverted spring cold, how can such a delicate thing as a white crane stand this cold? ”

The maid smiled: "It's not cold now, when the maid was at home in the countryside in the past, you can still see the white cranes foraging in the ridges in late autumn!" It's just that those wild cranes are not as good-looking as the ones that the seventeenth master got them. And the seventeenth master led the hot spring into the pool of Songhetang, which is warmer than the outside! ”

Xu Zhou said with a smile: "Fifth sister-in-law, Tingyan, this child has a heart!" ”

Songhetang is the courtyard where Xu Jinping and Xu Deng live, and knowing that his son is so filial, Xu Deng is naturally very happy. Immediately, he turned his head and said to everyone: "I haven't seen what it looks like until now, let's go, let's go over and see, it's time for lunch." ”

Everyone laughed and was led by the little maid to Songhe Hall. Xu Qiyu thought that she was the oldest little lady, so she smiled and beckoned everyone to follow and go to see the white crane.

Xu Qiyu also forgot the "wound" on his hand at this time, pulled Xu Deng's sleeve with one hand, tilted his head and chirped: "Uncle Grandmother, did Uncle Seventeen keep the white crane in the yard?" Won't the white crane fly away on its own? When he was in Lingzhou, Uncle Seventeen took Sister Yu to hunt, Uncle Seventeen hunted a wild goose, and lied to Sister Yu that it was a white crane, and Dad also said that Uncle Seventeen was fooling around! Uncle Grandmother, do you think Uncle Seventeen will raise a yard of geese in the yard? ”

Xu Deng smiled: "What kind of system does it become to raise a yard of wild geese?" ”

Xu Qixuan said seriously: "Sister Shu thinks it's good to raise a yard of wild geese, last time Uncle Seventeen asked the people in the kitchen to roast the wild geese and give them to Sister Yu to apologize, Sister Yu ate them and felt very fragrant." If Uncle Seventeen raises a yard of geese, Sister Ju will ask Uncle Seventeen to apologize to Sister Ju every day! ”

When they heard this, they were all glad.

Mrs. Guo was left out in the cold before, and she was a little unwilling, but she also knew that Xu Deng was not easy to mess with. Since you can't afford to provoke it, it's more important to build a good relationship.

immediately said: "Sister Yu is so smart! ”

Xu Deng glanced at Mrs. Guo, her face was really softened, and she pointed to Xu Qixuan's head with a smile and said, "This kid has been thinking about eating all day!" Tingyan likes to indulge her. ”

Wen said with a smile: "Our family is the most indulgent sister, but you are the one who is an uncle and grandmother." The fifth aunt went to say that the seventeenth brother, if the seventeenth brother hears it, he will not follow it! ”

Xu Qiyu was embarrassed by everyone's laughter, so she broke free of Xu Deng's hand, made a grimace at her mother Wen, and then ran to Xu Qimoth and Xu Qidie and walked together.

Xu Zhou shook his head at Xu Deng: "This kid, in front of the sisters I just met, I'm embarrassed!" ”

The crowd laughed again.

When she was about to arrive at Songhe Hall, Xu Qiyu suddenly ran to Xu Qirong's side, Xu Qirong thought she was going to say something, so she stopped and bent down slightly to wait.

Xu Qiyu attached to Xu Qirong's ear, lowered his voice, looked mysterious, and said, "Fifteenth sister, you accompany me to catch the white crane and roast it for the cook, let's eat together, okay?" ”

Xu Qirong was stunned, why would he ask her to do this kind of thing together? Shouldn't you be looking for Xu Qimoth and Xu Qidie, who are a little younger than you?

Xu Qiyu explained: "Sister Nineteen said, Sister Fifteen, you used to eat even the unripe grapes in the yard, and you must be willing to go with me to catch the white crane." ”

Nineteen refers to Xu Qidie, as soon as Xu Qiyu said this, Xu Qirong immediately remembered. When she was young, she had a good appetite and ate without moderation, and Princess Pingtai was afraid that her figure would be out of shape, so she asked Mama Gui to pay attention to controlling her three meals a day. So she always felt that she couldn't eat enough at that time, and then the grapes in Lanzhi Courtyard grew up, and before they were ripe, she couldn't help but pick them to eat.

I didn't know about it by Xu Qidie, and I remembered it for so many years!

Xu Qirong turned his head and glared at Xu Qidie, Xu Qidie grimaced at her, and then spread his hands.

Xu Qirong couldn't cry or laugh, the fifth aunt had no children herself, so raising Xu Qimoth and Xu Qidie's two concubines by her side was naturally very good for Xu Qimoth and Xu Qidie's sisters. But the Su family was afraid that others would say that her mother-in-law killed the concubine, so while treating the two of them well, the Su family disciplined them very strictly.

Xu Qidie should have been afraid that she would agree or refuse Xu Qiyu to be educated by the Su family, so she suddenly pushed the matter on Xu Qirong.

Xu Qirong didn't blame her in her heart, she still remembered that when Xu Qidie was young, she dragged a bulky food box and gave her snacks made by Su's family.

Xu Qiyu looked at Xu Qirong expectantly for a year: "Fifteenth sister, is it okay?" Don't you want to eat grilled white cranes? ”

Xu Qirong wanted to say that he was really not delicious, but he didn't want to make his little sister unhappy, so he said: "That white crane was raised by Uncle Seventeen, won't we be sad if we eat Uncle Seventeen?" ”

"Huh?" Xu Qiyu didn't understand.

Xu Qirong explained: "If someone breaks your beloved thing, will you be sad? ”

Xu Qiyu suddenly realized: "Sister Fifteen is saying that this white crane is Uncle Seventeen's beloved thing?" ”

Xu Qirong didn't understand how she came to such a conclusion, but she still nodded.

Xu Qiyu thought about it carefully, and then looked regretful: "We can't eat white cranes." ”

Xu Qirong was a little unbearable to see her like this, and Xu Qirong remembered that the appearance of eating was very similar to the appearance she looked like when she was controlled by Gui Mama's diet, so she said: "The fifteenth sister knows that there is a restaurant, and the crispy pigeon in it is particularly delicious, one day you go out with the fifteenth sister, and the fifteenth sister will take you to eat." ”

Xu Qiyu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she was a little dancing at the moment, she still remembered her "accomplice" in her heart, and asked Xu Qirong in a low voice: "Would you like to bring the eighteenth sister and the nineteenth sister too?" "The eighteenth in line is Xu Qimo.

Xu Qirong said deliberately: "It depends on whether your eleventh uncle is willing to give me so much pocket money." ”

Xu Tingyuan is ranked eleventh in the pavilion generation.

Xu Qiyu nodded solemnly, patted his chest, and said, "Don't worry, wrap it up on me, I want to talk to Uncle Eleven!" ”

The voice was a little louder, Xu Qixuan heard it, leaned over, and said strangely: "What do you want to talk to Uncle Eleven?" ”

Xu Qixuan said: "I want to talk to Uncle Eleven about pocket money." ”

"When is it your turn to talk to Uncle Eleven about pocket money?" Xu Qixuan said curiously, then turned around and asked Xu Qirong, "Didn't your father give you pocket money?" So how much do you spend each month? (To be continued......)
