Chapter 21: Habits

Although she didn't have to go to school, Xie Rouhui still came to her mother's place for breakfast as usual, there was one less person, but her father and mother were in a good mood.

"Did Jiajia's food over there?" Xie Wenxing asked.

Mrs. Xie looked at her husband with a little resentment.

"I'm punishing her for grounding, not for not skipping meals." "I can't be hungry for her." ”

Xie Rouhui bit her chopsticks and grinned.

Xie Wenxing also smiled.

"I've been locked up for two days, and I don't know if I can sleep well or not." He said.

"You weren't used to it the first time, but you'll get used to it later." Mrs. Xie glanced at him and said.

Xie Wenxing laughed.

"Master, the second lady slept well in the ancestral hall last night, and Shicai had already had breakfast, and ate a bowl of rice and two bowls of tea soup." The big girl standing on the side smiled and said, "Now I start copying the women's ring." ”

"No, the women's ring was copied yesterday." Another girl said, "Second Miss is reviewing her homework in the school, and she said that Mr. Tomorrow is going to check the book." ”

Xie Wenxing laughed again.

"Look, look." He said to Mrs. Xie, "Jia Jia is more sensible. ”

Mrs. Xie put down the bowl and glared at him.

"Let's eat." She said, "If you are really sensible, you will not go to the ancestral hall." ”

Xie Wenxing laughed again, Mrs. Xie ignored him anymore, turned her head and told the girl to send the freshly brewed tea to Xie Roujia.

"Don't let her write in the dark, she will lose her eyes." She said.

"Send the set of pen and ink in my study to Jiajia." Xie Wenxing hurriedly followed.

The girls responded with a smile, and the hula was lively.

Xie Rouhui kept smiling and eating slowly, and when she heard this, she put down the dishes and chopsticks.

"I'm done." She said.

Xie Wenxing and Mrs. Xie looked over.

"If you don't go to school today, go find Qing'er and Shu'er to play." Mrs. Xie said.

Xie Rouhui shook her head.

"No, I want to practice the prayer for rain again." She said, looking at her father and mother with some anticipation.

Mrs. Xie nodded.

"Go ahead." She said.

Xie Rouhui lowered her head, responded with a salute, turned around and walked out slowly.

"Jiajia is out, you just need to say a few words, don't scare the child with a straight face."

"Okay, I know, then sir, do I still have to set up a table for Miss Xie Er to congratulate Yihe?"

Father's laughter spread throughout the room.

Xie Rouhui, who walked to the door, stopped and looked back.

"Miss?" The girls who lifted the curtain asked puzzled.

Xie Rouhui retracted her gaze, smiled, raised her feet and stepped forward.

Back in the yard, the girls were laughing around the peacocks.

"When the second lady comes back, release them out and open the screen." They were laughing and talking.

Xie Rouhui stopped, and the girls were busy giving gifts.

"Miss, Miss Yao invites you to go fishing in the garden together." Konoha greeted him under the porch and said.

Xie Rouhui smiled and shook her head.

"I'm not going." She said.

The girls were surprised.

Xie Rouhui has always loved fishing, but because she is busy with homework, she has little free time, so she only goes to play on rare rest days.

"My sister is grounded, how can I go to play, it just so happens that my mother has not memorized the sacrificial words taught me." Xie Rouhui said.

Konoha and the others were stunned.

"Konoha, you go and talk to Miss Yao in person, let her play by herself." Xie Rouhui said, "Wait until next time to play together." ”

Konoha responded yes.

……………………………………………….

"Sister Konoha takes it and eats tea."

The big girl next to Xie Yao smiled and handed over a bag of money.

Konoha didn't shirk it, smiled and took the gift and said goodbye.

Watching Konoha walk out of the courtyard, Xie Yao, who was sitting by the window, put down the tea bowl in his hand.

"Miss, Miss Table, they're all here, and the chessboard is ready." The girl who came out of the ear room said.

Xie Yao nodded.

"Miss, the fourth lady of Dongfu ......," the other girl said hesitantly.

Xie Yao invited Xie Rouhui at the same time as Xie Rouhui, and invited Xie Roushu first.

"The fourth lady has already told the third lady to accompany the eldest lady to fish, so that she can avoid being grounded, and she must have been waiting in the garden at this time." The girl continued.

In order to avoid being grounded, the fourth lady must have threatened the third lady under the banner of Xie Rouhui, and suddenly said that she couldn't go, and the fourth lady would definitely be punished by the third lady.

If Xie Yao went, it would be regarded as fishing, but Miss Kan had no intention of going at all, and while letting the girl go to Dongfu, she also invited her cousins to play chess.

Xie Yao smiled indifferently.

"It's not that I won't go, it's that Rouhui won't go." She said, adding again, "You go and tell SΓΉ Rou Sook what Konoha said." ”

The girl responded, watching Xie Yao lift the curtain and go to the ear room, and the laughter of the women over there immediately rang out.

"Sister." The girl couldn't help but ask the big girl in the room in a low voice with a little puzzlement, "Did the young lady already know that the eldest lady wouldn't go?" ”

The big girl pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded.

The girl was even more puzzled.

"Then why does the young lady still ask the eldest lady?" She said.

The big girl smiled and reached out to poke the girl's forehead.

"Because the young lady and the eldest lady are the best and most confidant." She said, and then walked towards the ear room, "Go quickly, don't let Miss Four wait too long, Miss Four's temper is not very good." ”

In the garden, sure enough, Xie Roushu, who had already been sitting by the lake and started fishing, listened to what Xie Yao said, lost her temper and threw the fishing rod into the lake.

"Playing tricks?" She shouted.

The girls next to her hurriedly booed her.

"The eldest lady has to work hard." Everyone hurriedly said, lest Xie Roushu say anything offensive.

Xie Roushu naturally understood what the girls meant, and her anger increased a little, but she was helpless, someone really couldn't be provoked at home.

Obviously, they are all young ladies of the Xie family, but the treatment is different.

"What do you have to work on, didn't you say it, because Xie Roujia is grounded, my sister can't play, and when I am a sister, I have to accompany me and not play." Xie Roushu shouted, raised her foot and kicked the little machine over, but her foot hurt, and she sat on the ground with a sigh.

The girls hurriedly stepped forward to coax.

"I shouldn't have come in the first place." There were also people who muttered under their breath.

The fourth lady looked very powerful, and she couldn't help but come even when she heard the three words of the eldest lady.

In fact, it is not very reasonable for the fourth lady to say that she is grounded and can't come out to play, and she still covets the opportunity for the eldest lady to get close.

The eldest lady didn't dare to complain about her appointment, so she could only sulk by herself.

Xie Roushu heard it at the tip of her ear, and she had nowhere to vent her sullenness, so she immediately smashed her head and face at this little girl, pointing at people and beating and scolding, and throwing them into the lake.

The little girl cried and kowtowed and begged for mercy, and the lake was in a mess, attracting passers-by to look at it.

"Fourth Miss, Fourth Miss, let's go back quickly, if you make any more trouble, Madam will definitely ask." The big girl reminded.

It's good not to remind her, Xie Roushu immediately thought of how to tell her mother when she went back now, she was making a big fuss about coming out to play, but when she turned around, Xie Rouhui said that she couldn't work hard.

But if you pretend that the eldest lady is also there, and you will be by the lake for half a day, you will definitely not be able to hide it.

In short, I must have scolded him when I went back.

"Xie Roushu, you dead girl, see if the eldest lady is not wrong and introspect, you look at you again, make excuses with me if you are wrong, you are not ashamed!"

Xie Roushu's ears seemed to have heard her mother's shouting, and her ears seemed to be twisted with a faint pain, and she couldn't help but hiss and inhaled twice.

The grievances of the past few days can no longer be suppressed.

"It doesn't make sense!" She jumped up and shouted, "She Xie Roujia is grounded alone, does the whole family have to accompany the grounding?" If she makes a mistake alone, will the whole family be punished? ”

"Xie Roujia, you are bigger than the emperor's shelf!"

………………………………………

The sky gradually brightened, a new day came, Xie Roujia, who had been grounded for two days, walked out of the ancestral hall, she couldn't help but stretch her arms and wanted to stretch her waist, but she sneezed heavily first.

"Miss, you won't get cold, will you?" Jiang Ling asked worriedly.

"Probably not." Xie Roujia said, rubbing her nose and laughing, "I started sneezing yesterday, I don't know who said me." ”

Jiang Ling also smiled.

"It must be the old lady and the eldest lady." She said.

"Let's take a look." Mu Xiang said with some concern.

Xie Roujia immediately shook her head.

"Nope." She said.

Mu Xiang was stunned, and Jiang Ling grinned.

"Miss, some people say that you are sensible after you get well, and some people say that Miss is not sensible, I don't feel any special about that, but I found out a little." She said.

Xie Roujia and Mu Xiang both looked at her with some puzzlement.

"Miss is very fond of saying, no." Jiang Ling said with a grin.

Say no?

Xie Roujia was stunned.

She can't remember what she was like before, but she remembered her clearly in the ten years in her dream, after her sister was gone, she listened to everyone, and she did whatever she asked her to do, she didn't dare and was not qualified to refute or express her wishes, because she was not her, she was a substitute for her sister, a substitute, so what qualifications did she have to say no.

However, she regretted it all the time, regretting that she didn't say no at the beginning, and didn't pull her sister not to play in the water and catch fish.

Now she finally has a chance to do it again, that's why she likes to say no? To stop that nightmare that won't say no from appearing.

"Second Miss? Are you okay? ”

Mu Xiang's voice sounded in his ears, interrupting Xie Roujia's distraction.

"What nonsense are you talking about." She reprimanded Jiang Ling again.

Jiang Ling smiled, and Xie Roujia smiled when she looked at the girls.

"Mu Xiang, I'm fine, I know it in my own heart, if it's really uncomfortable, I'll see the doctor, don't worry, I won't be reckless with my body." She said.

It is indeed a little unsightly to call the doctor after being punished, Mu Xiang was also a little apprehensive when he asked, it is really good that Xie Roujia can think like this.

Mu Xiang smiled and replied.

"That's good, I'll let the kitchen make Erchen soup, Miss, you like to drink more than one bowl." She said.

Keeping the cold away and recuperating is Xie Roujia's favorite food on weekdays, so it won't make people feel different.

Xie Roujia nodded, Mu Xiang went to arrange it in person, and Jiang Ling accompanied her to the courtyard of the eldest lady.

"Miss, you are really sensible." Jiang Ling said seriously.

It's just a reasonable sentence, which can make the two girls show such a happy look, just like the parents heard that they took the initiative to go to school and were happy, in the dream, no matter what she did, no one would take a second look, and that extra glance must be suspicion, indifference and disgust, and no one would care what she was thinking.

Xie Roujia wanted to laugh a little and was a little sad, and finally nodded with a hum.

"I'll be more sensible in the future." She said.

But this look of relief and appreciation is not something that can be seen anytime and anywhere, and Xie Roujia felt unfriendly gaze as soon as she walked out of the house and walked into the school under the eyes of her parents and girls.

Especially when everyone has determined which is the sister and which is her, this unfriendliness is unscrupulous.
