Chapter 56: Capriciousness
A few muffled thunders rolled over, and the rain was densely sprinkled, Xie Rouqing walked a few steps quickly, broke away from the little girls holding umbrellas, and stepped up the steps to stand under the porch.
The rain wet her hair and dripped down, and Shao Mingqing, who was standing under the porch wearing a blue summer robe and a green jade bamboo hairpin on his head, smiled and stretched out his hand.
The girls behind him hurriedly handed over handkerchiefs, and Shao Mingqing took them and threw them to Xie Rouqing.
"Cousin, are you going to stay this time?" Xie Rouqing asked.
Shao Mingqing looked at the rain in the yard.
"Why is my cousin so ruthless?" He asked, "Is it raining so hard to drive me away?" ”
Xie Rouqing glared at him with a sneer.
"Who's ruthless? How long has it been since you lived in our house since last year? Every time you just drink tea and eat a meal, no matter how windy the wind blows, you have to go. She raised an eyebrow and said, "I don't want my father and mother to worry so much." ”
Shao Mingqing laughed and saluted her.
"It's my wayward fault." He said.
"Then you're going to stay this time?" Xie Rouqing said angrily, "Still don't worry about our Xie family's sisters pestering you to play together?" ”
Now that it has spread all over the house, Xie Roujia only lets Shao Mingqing play with him, and he is not allowed to get close to the other sisters, but after this incident starts, the other sisters will definitely not play with Shao Mingqing again.
There will no longer be any sisters who will make trouble with him, and whoever comes close to him will be afraid that he will be used as a slave.
Let the two sisters fight each other, Shao Mingqing has a bad reputation in the Xie family, which can be seen from the attitude of the people who entered the door, in the past, everyone greeted each other with a smile and competed to call the young master first, but now. The people who came to report to Second Master Xie couldn't find it, and they were hung in the concierge for a long time.
"yes." Shao Mingqing smiled and said, "I'm finally useless, and I can play with peace of mind." ”
I was even happy about it.
"You're still laughing!" Xie Rouqing said angrily.
"It's exactly what I want, and now that my wish has come true, shouldn't I be happy?" Shao Mingqing said with a smile.
Xie Rouqing glared at him.
Although she already knew that Shao Mingqing didn't like to approach Xie Rouhui, she stayed away from Xie Rouhui in this way of being splashed with inexplicable dirty water. What is there to rejoice.
It's not just that the Xie family won't allow him. The Shao family will also be angry with him.
Presumably, Shao Mingqing's life at home was not good at this time.
"Then do you want to see a benefactor who can make your wishes come true?" She huffed and said, "People are worse than you now, at least you can still run around." But she was grounded for I don't know when. ”
Shao Mingqing laughed.
"Of course I want to go." He said, "My wish has come true, and she has also thought that it has come true, so everyone should rejoice together." ”
Really. Xie Roujia didn't want Shao Mingqing to enter the Xie family's house from the beginning, and he went around and around for so long. Finally got my wish.
Xie Rouqing didn't know whether to be angry or funny.
"Killing a thousand enemies and losing a hundred, just to prevent you from entering the door of the Xie family, you did such a thing to give people a handle, and you were scolded inside and out. Everyone hated her, and they didn't know what to like. She said angrily.
"About, everybody likes her. It's not what she wants, is it? Shao Mingqing said seriously, "So." Everyone hates her, and there's nothing to be sad about. ”
What the hell is this!
Xie Roujia froze again and glared at Shao Mingqing.
"I think now that she said she would only let you play with her, maybe it really came from the bottom of her heart." She muffled, "You two are simply unreasonable. ”
Shao Mingqing nodded.
"I think so." He grinned.
Xie Roujia's yard looks lonely when the trees are withering in winter, and it looks lonely because it is surrounded by mountains and rocks, but when the trees are flourishing in summer, it is also lonely.
Especially when it rains, people hide in the house or drink or gamble, which is even more desolate.
Mu Xiang stood under the porch and looked at the rain in the courtyard, and couldn't help but sigh again.
Seven or eight days have passed since the incident in Xifu, but her heart has never been high.
This time, the second lady made much more trouble than last year's Lantern Festival Garden, but the strange thing is that the eldest lady did not punish the second lady severely.
Grounded in their own yard, this is really painless, and even these girls were just reprimanded by the housekeeper and put them back, and they didn't hit the board.
With Mrs. Xie's temperament, it is impossible to stop the matter, is there any stricter punishment waiting for them in the future?
There was a burst of laughter in his ears, Mu Xiang turned his head to look, and the door of the house was hung with a gauze curtain like a cloud, and the people inside could clearly see the outside, but the people outside could not see the inside.
This precious curtain blocked the view, but could not block the sound.
"Shall I send it now?"
"I'll taste it first, if I don't like it, my grandmother won't be able to drink it."
The voices of Jiang Ling and Xie Roujia came happily.
I don't know how they are still cheerful, Mu Xiang sighed again, turned around and lifted the curtain and walked in.
There was a soup cup on the table, Xie Roujia was scooping it with a spoon and tasting it, and Jiang Ling was watching eagerly from the side.
"Does it taste good?" She asked.
Xie Roujia nodded.
"The cook is really good, let her remind her that this soup is really delicious." She said happily.
"Miss, did you let the kitchen make alcohol soup again?" Mu Xiang asked.
At the same time that Mrs. Xie's grounding order was handed down, she also gave a small kitchen here, and when she saw these cooks, Mu Xiang's heart immediately hung another stone and sank.
This is going to be grounded for a long time......
But Xie Roujia did not panic at all, but happily commanded the small kitchen to start tossing and turning the soup for quitting alcohol, and kept sending it to Mrs. Xie every day for the past seven or eight days.
Watching Jiangling come out with a food box, Mu Xiang followed.
"What can the old lady say?" She grabbed Jiang Ling.
JMC laughed.
"The old lady has nothing to say." She was full of confidence, "I stare at the old lady every time." ”
What and what!
Mu Xiang was stunned and pushed her.
"I mean the second lady." She said, "Old lady, don't you still want to come forward and say something to the eldest lady?" ”
"Say what?" Jiang Ling looked at her puzzled and asked.
This idiot! Mu Xiang glared.
"Pleading." She said, "Second Miss is like this? ”
Jiang Ling groaned and scratched his head.
"Second Miss didn't let me say this. The second lady just asked the old lady to quit drinking. She said.
"If the second lady doesn't say this, you won't say it." Woody aroma.
Jiang Ling nodded.
"Of course, the second miss didn't say it, why should I say it?" She asked curiously.
There is really no way, the wood aroma knot, what else do you have to say, I saw that the little girl led Shao Mingqing in. She immediately lost her breath. Instead, he was depressed.
"Young Master Shao!" She said, "Why are you here?" ”
Shao Mingqing didn't answer her words.
"Is your young lady here?" Instead, he asked, laughing again. "Of course, she's grounded right now."
Is this a funny joke?
Mu Xiang looked at him in amazement.
"Young Master Cousin, you better go back, it's not appropriate for you to come here now." She said with a cold face.
Shao Mingqing continued to laugh.
"That's not right. I'm the best one to come now. He laughed, and walked with his feet up. Beyond Mu Xiang, she put aside the little girl holding the umbrella and jumped to the bottom of the porch in a few easy steps.
Xie Roujia was lifting the curtain when she heard the sound and stood at the door looking at him.
She grew taller again in the spring, and the remaining bit of girlishness during the New Year has been dissipated. At this time, his face was ruddy, his eyes were immediately round when he saw him, and his cheeks seemed to bulge. It's like a goldfish.
Shao Mingqing couldn't help but laugh again.
"Laugh what a laugh!" Xie Roujia shouted angrily, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Cousin. You're crossing the river and demolishing the bridge too fast, aren't you, I'm useless now, so you're just going to drive people out? Shao Mingqing put away his smile and asked pretending to be surprised.
A trace of astonishment flashed in Xie Roujia's eyes, and it was a little complicated.
Shao Mingqing is not a fool, how can he like his attitude towards him at all, but he is so obedient that he doesn't know what his idea is.
No matter what his idea is, now he doesn't want to have anything to do with the Xie family's inner house, even if others are capable, which elder will appreciate him outside, because of the past of this sister's dispute, his father and mother will definitely not reuse him.
If he knew there would be such consequences, why did he let it go?
"Why do you do it when you know it?" She couldn't help but ask.
Shao Mingqing smiled.
"Why?" He said, reaching out and lifting the curtain and stepping in, "Naturally, I'm happy." ”
Glad?
Xie Roujia turned around and watched Shao Mingqing go straight to the study over there.
Glad!
She snorted, took a deep breath, didn't care what he was thinking, anyway, she would take a good look at him in this life!
"Shui Ying, Shui Ying." She turned around and shouted, "I'm going to swim!" ”
What kind of water to swim in on this rainy day?
Mu Xiang looked helpless, looked at Xie Roujia who was swaying towards the hot spring, and then looked at Shao Mingqing who was holding a book in the room and fell crookedly on the beauty chair, and then looked back at Jiang Ling, who was trotting out of the door with a food box and an umbrella, what is this, she lowered her head a little weakly.
When is this going to be the end?
"Is there any end to it?"
Old Madam Xie looked at the food box placed on the table by Jiang Ling, and said angrily.
"Okay, Jiangling, take it back." The girl on the side hurriedly whispered, "The old lady knows the second lady's intentions." ”
JMC had no intention of leaving.
"Old lady, since you know the second lady's intentions, then I won't leave." She smiled and said, "Second Miss said let me watch you finish drinking." ”
What kind of master and what kind of girl, Mrs. Xie sighed, it's been a few days, why don't you still give up.
"What do you want, young lady?" She took a deep breath and asked, "Let's get straight to the point, don't make all these twists and turns." ”
Jiang Ling nodded, and the girl on the side lowered her gaze with a little reluctance.
This stupid girl, those words of intercession could have been said directly seven days ago, but they have been resolutely unable to say it directly until now, and it is not only useless to say it, but it is even more imright, which makes the old lady disgusted.
"Second Miss said, grandmother, don't think that I am locked up, you can eat and drink as you like." Jiang Ling said, imitating the way Xie Roujia spoke, "These are two different things, don't try to take the opportunity to get involved." ”
Mrs. Xie and the girls were stunned.
"What?" Old Madam Xie said, smiling again, "She said this? This stinky girl. ”
What is this stinky girl thinking?
"Old lady, I promised our young lady that I must watch you finish eating, and I won't leave if you beat me." Jiang Ling said.
Old Madam Xie looked at her, reached out and took the soup cup and drank it all, and put the soup cup on the table.
"Let's go, let's go." She said.
Jiang Ling took the soup cup with a smile, and Shi Li responded with a smile, and ran away with the food box.
I'm really gone....
Old Madam Xie looked at the girl who had disappeared in the blink of an eye, and sat still.
"Old lady, will you set the table?" The big girl asked cautiously.
Old Madam Xie slammed off the bed.
"Let's go." She said.
The girls in the room were puzzled.
Walk? The girl is gone.
In a daze, Mrs. Xie had already walked towards the door, and the girls came back to their senses and followed.
"Where are you going, old lady?" The girls asked in a mess.
…………………………………………
Because of the rain, the mothers-in-law on the second gate of the West Mansion were sitting in the house gambling money, having a good time, and heard the door being knocked on.
"Who?"
After a push, the latter mother-in-law stood up helplessly and went to open the door angrily.
Loudly asked, and she was answered by a louder banging on the door.
"What are you doing?" The mother-in-law shouted even more angrily.
Before the words fell, I heard a sneer outside the door.
"Knock on something, if the door doesn't open, you will smash it."
The mother-in-law was startled, who is this, the tone is so big.
She couldn't help but reach out and touch the door panel, and the door was really knocked open with a bang.
The mother-in-law was caught off guard and fell to the ground screaming.
The sound alarmed the mothers-in-law inside, and the chaos poured out.
"What's wrong?"
"Oops, who's guarding the door..."
The shouting came to an abrupt halt when he saw the crowd pouring in.
Or the servant girl with an umbrella or a raincoat stepped out of the way, revealing behind her an old woman with gray hair, holding a wooden cane in her hand, and making a thud on the ground.
"Thank you! You shameless old thing! How dare you allow people to scold me! I'm not dead yet! It's against you! ”
