Chapter 2 Xu Buxian
On the terrace, Xiao Xiang'er, who was rubbing the mahogany card, suddenly heard Cui Xiaowan's voice, and the whole person froze, blinking like apricots, as if she was wondering if she was asleep and dreaming.
Cui Xiaowan saw that her mother did not respond, so she smiled:
"I can sleep on the couch. The queen mother doesn't need to alarm others, I didn't say I couldn't come with Xu Buling, but I still came, and when Xu Buling came back, I would talk to him first, if he felt troublesome, I would go back. ”
Xiao Xiang'er finally came to her senses, sat up from the terrace, and looked back at the house, but she could only see two small dogs huddled in the corner of the room shivering, and a big white goose crawling forward on the carpet, opening its mouth wide and trying to bite the dog.
"Xiaowan, you ...... How do you ......"
Xiao Xiang'er was a little dazed.
Cui Xiaowan walked into the back room, took off the small package on her shoulder, opened it, and put the changed dress into the closet. Hearing Xiao Xiang'er's voice, she responded:
"When I was in Suzhou, Xu Buling told me a story about going out to fight halfway through. I thought he didn't bring his family, and thought that he could find Miss Jiujiu to continue talking, so he didn't follow, but I didn't think that you all followed; The queen mother knew my temperament and liked to get to the bottom of it, so she came over. ”
Just for the sake of storytelling?
Not for anything else?
Xiao Xiang'er obviously didn't believe it, stood up, walked into the house, and looked at Cui Xiaowan who was cleaning up next to the wardrobe:
"How did you get here by yourself after such a long journey?"
"Lao Jia sent me here, and he stayed in the cabin below."
"Oh......"
Xiao Xiang'er nodded, wanting to say something more, but her head was buzzing, and she couldn't find a topic for a while.
Cui Xiaowan sorted and arranged the belly pockets, dirty pants, and skirts, put them neatly, got up and looked at the soft collapse, and found that there were a few small objects thrown at random on the small case, and there were tools such as carving knives next to them.
Cui Xiaowan is a little obsessive-compulsive, she likes to clean up everything neatly and meticulously, and she feels a little awkward, so she walks over to help tidy it up.
When Xiao Xiang'er saw this scene, her face turned red suddenly, and she hurriedly ran to her:
"Don't, I...... Hongu ......"
Incoherent stopping, but it's too late.
Cui Xiaowan came to the small case and picked up the rabbit tail prepared for Yufu, a fluffy little round ball, the fur was snow-white, very soft to pinch, and the cone shape carved out of the top wood had just been polished, and it was very smooth to the touch.
Cui Xiaowan pinched the little hair ball curiously and asked:
"Mother, what is this for?"
Qiao'e's face turned red, hesitated, and secretly withdrew from the room with the goose and the dog.
Xiao Xiang'er's cheeks were full of embarrassment, and she walked up to snatch the rabbit's tail over, but she didn't dare to show too much panic, and raised her hand:
"Hmm...... It's just an ornament, a casual ......."
Cui Xiaowan has always been an inquiring character, and obviously noticed that the queen mother was lying, and the excuses she made couldn't convince people, so she continued to ask curiously:
"Where? This thing doesn't seem to be stable......"
As he spoke, he sat down on the soft collapse and tried to put the rabbit's tail on the table and stand up, but it was obviously impossible to stand.
Xiao Xiang'er is Cui Xiaowan's mother-in-law, no matter what she says, she has always put herself in the position of an elder, where do she dare to hint at the use. She sat down beside Cui Xiaowan with a dignified demeanor, her heart turned sharply, and she said with a smile:
"Placed in ...... If you put it in a flower pot, put it in the flower pot, it is particularly beautiful. ”
"yes......"
Cui Xiaowan carefully looked at the rabbit's tail and felt that it should be inserted into something, she turned her eyes to the two pots of daisies on the terrace, eager to try.
Xiao Xiang'er wasted many days of hard work to make it, and she definitely couldn't really insert it into the daisy, so she hurriedly raised her hand and said:
"This thing is troublesome to do, and you have to ...... If you want to find beautiful flowers, let's talk about it later. ”
Seeing this, Cui Xiaowan had to dispel her thoughts, pinched the rabbit tail in her hand, and smiled:
"Can the Queen Mother give this to me? Well...... I'll give you the seeds in exchange for ......"
Cui Xiaowan took off the purse around her waist, poured out a few seeds from it, and handed them to Xiao Xiang'er:
"This is the seed of 'Wudan Rose', before I left Suzhou, I looked for a long time in Suzhou, and bought it from the Hu people, saying that it is only available in the westernmost part of the Western Regions, and the flowers are particularly beautiful, and we don't have this kind of flower."
"Uh......"
Xiao Xiang'er knew that Cui Xiaowan was obsessed with flowers, and these seeds must be very precious to Cui Xiaowan, but ...... But how can this be changed! If Xiao Wanzhen put this thing in a flower pot......
Xiao Xiang'er shuddered!
Cui Xiaowan found that Xiao Xiang'er didn't want to agree, her face showed a little loss, and put the rabbit tail back on the table:
"I'll just say it casually, the queen mother doesn't have to take it seriously."
Xiao Xiang'er is not a sophisticated woman, she is afraid that Xiaowan will misunderstand her and is reluctant, so she hurriedly said:
"It's not...... It's just a small object, just give it to you. But...... But just keep it secretly, let Hongluan and my sister see it, and they will be greedy again, forcing me to do these ...... for them."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Cui Xiaowan picked up the rabbit's tail, put it on the side of her lap, and looked at the golden quail eggs on the table in a blink of an eye, ready to continue cleaning up.
Xiao Xiang'er's scalp was numb, and she hurriedly put away all the messy things, threw them into the toolbox, and said with a smile:
"Xiaowan, they have all come out of the palace, there is no distinction between the elder and the young, you can just rest well, and I will clean it up myself."
Cui Xiaowan nodded very obediently:
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
“……”
Xiao Xiang'er was uncomfortable, and after hiding the treasure object, she diverted the topic:
"Xiaowan, don't you want to hear the story, I've heard Xu Buling tell you a lot, anyway, it's okay, I'll tell you. What did he tell you? ”
Cui Xiaowan's eyes lit up, she was about to be tortured by a broken dog for the past few days, and hurriedly said:
"Last time, I talked about stealing fairy grass, but at that time I knew that he was leaving, so I didn't listen carefully, and the queen mother started talking about where the white lady drank realgar wine."
"Huh?"
Xiao Xiang'er was stunned for a moment, and sat down next to Cui Xiaowan, with a strange look in her eyes:
"He told you this? Did you listen too? ”
Cui Xiaowan leaned on the soft couch and smiled: "It's just a romance story, it's not weird, there's nothing you can't listen to." ”
Xiao Xiang'er frowned, recalled the story she had told her before and Xu Buling after she finished the matter, and said softly:
"Hmm...... Xu Buxian lifted the curtain and ......"
Cui Xiaowan blinked: "Xu Buxian? ”
Xiao Xiang'er nodded: "Well, yes, what's wrong?" ”
Cui Xiaowan hesitated: "It's nothing...... Let the Queen Mother continue. ”
"Xu Buxian lifted the curtain, but saw that in the bed, the white lady's cheeks were red, and her clothes were half-untied......"
!?
Cui Xiaowan's eyebrows furrowed, since she was a child, she was different from her ordinary daughter's family, and her cheeks did not appear shy and flushed, but her eyes were full of doubts. After listening for a moment, she raised her hand and said:
"Queen Mother, what you said seems to be different from what he said......"
Xiao Xiang'er stopped talking, and thought that she had hidden a lot of vulgar words, so that Cui Xiaowan could hear it, and she smiled slightly embarrassedly:
"Really? What did he talk to you about? ”
Cui Xiaowan thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "What he said is that Xu Xian opened the tent and saw that the white lady had turned into a big white snake, and her waist was so ......thick."
?
Xiao Xiang'er was a little puzzled: "Didn't you turn into a snake after you finished something?" ”
Cui Xiaowan was even more puzzled: "What's the aftermath?" ”
“……”
Xiao Xiang'er's face gradually turned red, until it turned red into a small apple, and in the face of her daughter-in-law's innocent eyes, she gritted her teeth and muttered:
"This bastard...... Lost conscience ......"
