When Xie Yi heard this, he hurriedly argued: "How could it not be? My uncle said that my aunt and cousin both had blue eyes! After speaking, as if seeking affirmation, he turned to look at Xie Shuning again, "Aman, you say, did I say that?" ”

"That's what my brother said." Xie Shuning didn't hesitate at all, and unconditionally affirmed Xie Yi's words.

This is her brother, the brother she finally met again after reliving her life, and she naturally would never make him feel powerless in front of others.

It was Xie Chen, seeing Xie Yi's eager look, he couldn't help but soften his voice: "I...... I don't mean anything else......"

Xie Yi refused to appreciate it, so he just turned his head: "You don't understand!" ”

Xie Shuning pursed her lips and smiled, her brother is still young in the end, even if he is sensible and well-behaved, he is still a child. She quietly glanced at Xie Chen again, with a clear face, but there was some nervousness between her eyebrows.

"It's really rare for the fifth young master to be so well-informed at such a young age." Seeing that the situation was slightly stiff, Li's mother hurriedly started a round. Thinking that children love to listen to flattery, he took the lead in praising Xie Yi. But when she was talking, she secretly muttered in her heart, this Song family even has a blue-eyed nephew, isn't this a monster! I couldn't help but be surprised and frightened.

"I'll go back now." Xie Chen hung his head, not knowing what he was thinking, and then turned around and threw the curtain out after whispering a word.

Because he was in a hurry, when the curtain fell, he brought in a gust of wind and snow.

Mother Li hurriedly went over to rearrange the curtain and blocked the door tightly, and then approached the hot kang again.

Xie Shuning only looked at it coldly, ignoring the stuffy heat in this room, and quietly thinking about his thoughts.

In her previous life, she only had one word "disgust" for Xie Chen.

At the beginning, the Song family had her and her brother's children, and the Chen family had nothing to do. But there is still a Xie Chen under Chen's knees, although he is only an heir, he is also her son in the end. As a result, Chen's waist was inexplicably straightened again.

However, only two years after Chen gave birth to Xie Shumin, he had another son.

Since then, Xie Chen's identity as the heir in the third room has become embarrassing. He is the son of Xie Yuanmao and the Chen family, but he is not a serious son, there is a serious young master in the house, what is the matter with him?

Later, she finally learned to be smart to please her uncle and grandmother, and was taken to the long house. But Xie Chen can only survive day by day in the third room.

Now that I think about it, Xie Chen is just a poor person.

Xie Shuning felt depressed when she thought about it, so she simply pulled the quilt and covered her head and lay down.

"Aman, do you want to sleep again?" Xie Yi couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this.

Xie Shuning answered muffled through the quilt.

Xie Yi said, "Then you sleep, I'll go find my father." ”

Her father liked her more than her brother, but his brother liked his father more than his mother. Xie Shuning knew that he hadn't seen his father for more than half a year, and now he didn't want to leave, so he gave up the idea of letting him nest on the kang with him, and poked half of his head out of the quilt to see him go.

Naturally, Rose was going to be delivered, and there was only Mother Li left in the house.

Xie Shuning felt upset when she looked at her, "I'm going to sleep, you can go out too." ”

There was an unconcealable irritability in the soft and glutinous children's voice, and Mother Li was stunned when she heard it, and then stared at the arched quilt and pursed her lips and walked out. The snow outside seemed to be heavier, and Mother Li looked at it from a distance, turned her head and instructed the two little maids guarding the door: "Be careful!" ”

After speaking, seeing that the two little maids of the Xie family responded in a whisper, she turned around and walked in the direction of the main room.

Xie Shuning in the room kept her eyes open and hid in the dark.

With only the quilt on the bed, it seems to be two worlds.

One is bright and one is dark, and it is distinct.

She sighed, lifted a corner of the quilt and sat up, pursed her lips and looked out the window through the thick cellophane, where a vague figure was speeding by.

Xie Shuning remembered that Xie Chen, who had just appeared, was obviously unexpectedly by Mother Li, so Mother Li couldn't help but report the news to Chen.

"Pearl, can you just see Mother Li's arrogant appearance? But she's just a slave like us, and she seems to be superior to others, making people angry when they look at her! ”

"Be careful, don't ask anyone to listen."

"What are you afraid of, there are few people in our house, how can there be people here!"

"Be quiet, Miss Eight is still asleep inside......"

"Don't say that she is asleep, what can she do when she is awake, what can such a big girl understand?" The tone was still anxious, but his voice gradually lowered, "Besides, I heard my mother say that although the old lady promised the sixth master to wait for the New Year, but the one in it can only be a ......concubine in the future."

"This ...... How do you know? Your mother told you that? ”

"How can it, I heard my mother talking to Sister Qiuxi next to the old lady a few days ago, and I heard it. By the way, don't tell me about it. ”

"Okay, okay, you just treat me as the saw-mouthed gourd, and I won't reveal a word of it.

“……”

Xie Shuning listened quietly, always feeling that something was wrong, but for a while, he couldn't think of anything wrong. After thinking about it, the sleepiness inexplicably came up again. She contracted a cold on the way to Beijing, and although she is now well, she is still thirsty and sleepy. She tugged at the quilt, fought with her upper and lower eyelids, and after a while she fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, it was already time to hold the lamp.

The candles on the table seemed to have just been lit, and the dim light was not too dazzling.

She lay there, her eyes open, as if she were in a different world.

The sound of footsteps began to rustle in her ears, and then she saw her mother leaning down before her eyes. The mother changed into a primrose-colored satin fox fur jacket, and the outstanding color made her skin white and snowy, and her face was like a peach and plum. As soon as she moved, the jade earrings on her ears swayed in front of Xie Shuning's eyes.

The water color is so transparent that you can almost see the wick behind it.

"Aman, but you can't sleep well?" Song said softly, "This kang must be unaccustomed to sleeping, so when it's late, let's move to the bed and sleep." Fortunately, at this time, what is in the south is also available in the north, and after a few days, you will get used to it. ”

Listening to her mother talking carefully, she didn't know whether she was comforting her or herself, Xie Shuning laughed.

What is she worried about?

My mother is still alive, and so is my brother.

Everything is only going to get better, what is she worried about?

She threw herself into Song's arms through the quilt, and said in a hoarse voice that had just woken up, "Mother, ......"

"What's wrong?" Song put his arm around her and said with a little doubt.

As she spoke, Mother Gui came over with a bowl of steaming shredded chicken porridge, scooped up a spoonful and fed it to Xie Shuning, "Miss try it, your favorite porridge, the young master also drank two bowls in the evening." ”

The Song family took it over and fed it to Xie Shuning personally, while instructing Gui's mother, "Ming'er will go to the long room early in the morning to meet the two elders, and you can help me take out the mahogany box and bring it over tomorrow." ”
