"Huh." Mama Su answered and asked the little maid outside to go to the kitchen to ask for a bowl of ginger soup.

Xu Jiayi often comes to Wan'an Hall to accompany Mrs. Su, even if two people are close, there are times when they have nothing to say, and after a long time, sometimes Xu Jiayi will not know what to say. But even if she has nothing to say, Xu Jiayi will not feel embarrassed, even if she doesn't say anything, she has a sense of peace of mind when she is by her grandmother's side like this.

And Mrs. Su also likes Xu Jiayi to come over, the grandparents and grandchildren sit together sometimes drinking tea, sometimes instructing Xu Jiayi to embroider, and occasionally the two will play chess.

The matter of Cui Qing's departure from the mansion has spread throughout the Shangshu Mansion, but Xu Jiayi is very discerning at this time and did not mention it, even if he has something to say, it is not very important.

"One by one, you'll be in time for half a year, but what are your plans?"

Xu Jiayi naturally heard that the old lady meant to talk about her family affairs, but she didn't have this mind now, so she pretended not to understand and talked about herself and the ceremony, "By then, my cousin will also be married, and I don't have other good sisters who are familiar with each other, only Cui Xin and Chen Xuan, who are familiar with each other, and they will be the praisers." As for the rest, they all listened to my grandmother. ”

"You know I'm not talking about that."

"Grandmother, I'm still young, and the marriage is not in a hurry. Besides, are you willing to marry me off so early? Xu Jiayi saw that she couldn't hide, and puffed out her cheeks and said, "My granddaughter has made up her mind to bother her grandmother for a few more years, you can't bother me." ”

Old Mrs. Su shook Xu Jiayi's hand back and sighed, "I'm just worried that Sister Qing'er's matter will affect you." ”

Actually, it's not a worry, it's already affected.

A few years ago, Mrs. Su and her two daughters-in-law also looked at each other for Xu Jiayi, and they also decided that the two families had intentions, but because of Cui Qing's matter, these two families secretly passed on the word to her, and found their own reasons to say that it was not suitable, but in fact, it was because it was very clear, and it was just to take care of their faces.

"What is there to be anxious about my grandmother, the family that my cousin promised is the maiden family of my second uncle, everyone is a person who knows the roots, they don't know what kind of character my cousin is, how can they be angry with my cousin because of Cousin Cui Qing?"

Although they are all cousins, Xu Jiayi is obviously more inclined to Wang Yunxiu, perhaps because she has known each other since birth. So when talking about other cousins in the same sentence, they will always say it with their names and surnames, and Mrs. Su didn't find out about this, but she went with her.

The elders are like this, and Xu Jiayi is used to this.

Xu Jiayi saw that Mrs. Su's frowning brows loosened a little, and continued, "Sister Cui Xin and I haven't reached the end yet, and it's too early to talk about marriage now, even if there is really a suitable one, how can those people generalize and deny me because of Cousin Cui Qing's affairs?" If this is the case, it can only mean that it is not a good family, and it is better if the granddaughter does not go! ”

"You, it's okay to talk these things around me, and don't talk nonsense in front of others." Mrs. Su raised her hand and nodded Xu Jiayi's eyebrows, and the depression that had been lingering in her heart all day dissipated at this time, it was she who thought about the problem too much, and instead got into a dead end by herself.

Accompanying Mrs. Su to talk for a while, seeing that the hour was almost up, Xu Jiayi also got up and said goodbye. After leaving Wan'an Hall, seeing that there was already a light snow outside, Xu Jiayi couldn't help but be a little surprised.

It's already the first month of the year, and it's still snowing?

Xu Jiayi smiled slightly, caught a snowflake in her palm, and watched the snowflake turn into a wet droplet on her hand little by little. Cuiyun saw that Xu Jiayi was playing in the snow again, and hurriedly persuaded her, "Girl, it's cold at night, let's go back to the yard quickly." ”

When the master and servant walked to the gate of Jiaxi Garden, they saw a figure standing there from a distance, and when they got closer, Xu Jiayi found that it was Chu Changfeng, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Xu Jiayi walked two steps quickly to Chu Changfeng, and asked tentatively, "Uncle Cousin, why are you here......?" Looking for me? ”

Without answering Xu Jiayi's question, Chu Changfeng glanced at Xu Jiayi's hair without a trace, and a touch of displeasure flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Although Chu Changfeng covered it up quickly, he was still caught by Xu Jiayi, and he couldn't help touching his hair a little dazedly, and suddenly remembered something to flatter and said aloud, "The dragonfly hairpin that my cousin gave me is so beautiful, I am reluctant to wear it." In the past few days, I have been visiting relatives and friends with my grandmother, in case I am taken by a girl from which family, cousin, do you say I give it or not? ”

Although the actual reason is not this, Xu Jiayi does not mean to tell the truth.

The little girl's voice was soft and glutinous, with a bit of coquettishness. Sure enough, no matter how old the women in Yanjing City are, their ability to guess people's hearts is not weak, but they have already guessed their thoughts clearly after just taking a face, Chu Changfeng said secretly in his heart.

"What is given to you is your thing, and your own thing is your own decision." Chu Changfeng said nonchalantly, "The last time you went to Qingyuefang, I didn't tell Mrs. Su about it. I heard you were fined that day? ”

Xu Jiayi couldn't keep up with Chu Changfeng's sudden change in topic, and only remembered what Chu Changfeng said after reacting for a while. It's been so long, she's about to forget it, how can she still bring it up at this time?

Seeing that Chu Changfeng didn't mean to laugh, his sincere look made Xu Jiayi a little doubtful that she had really misunderstood him. But if it weren't for what he said, then who else would it be, it wouldn't be her cousin who betrayed her, right?

"It's been so long since this happened, I almost forgot if you didn't talk about it, cousin." Xu Jiayi waved her hand, "I know that my cousin is not such a person, not to mention that my grandmother loves me, and she will not really be willing to punish me." ”

Chu Changfeng nodded, "That's good." ”

He only learned about this by chance today, so he came over to explain it to Xu Jiayi. As for why he did this, Chu Changfeng frowned slightly, he didn't think about why, he just felt that he should come over.

Xu Jiayi pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say, so she looked at the other party silently. Chu Changfeng didn't see Xu Jiayi's embarrassment, as if he was waiting for Xu Jiayi to continue to say something, and only stared at her quietly.

Xu Jiayi also saw that Chu Changfeng didn't mean to speak, and asked by herself, "Uncle Cousin, didn't you say that you were looking for me for something, what is the matter?" ”

"It's already been said."

Said it?

Xu Jiayi blinked, paused for a while before she understood what Chu Changfeng meant, and sighed silently in her heart, this cousin is good everywhere, why can't he say two more words when he always talks so little? !

can always talk to death, this can also be regarded as an ability, right?

The night breeze was blowing a little cold, Xu Jiayi tightened her clothes without a trace, and wanted to hurry into the house to drink a cup of hot tea to warm up her body, and once again looked at Chu Changfeng and said, "Why don't you go into the house and sit for a while, drink a cup of hot tea before leaving?" ”

"No, it's getting late, so I won't be in the house."

That's ...... now

Xu Jiayi secretly glanced at Cuiyun and prayed for her to say a few words to rescue herself, but Cuiyun hung her head to the side and didn't see her eyes at all.

Once again, the scene fell silent......

"My cousin gave me such a valuable gift, and I don't know what to give back to my cousin." The scene was too embarrassing, Xu Jiayi knew that if she didn't speak, they might be here like this tonight, so she could only say nothing, "Otherwise, I'll embroider a sachet for you?" ”

Xu Jiayi just said casually, the identities of the two of them are far apart, and there is no intersection between the eight poles. If it weren't for the fact that his aunt was his cousin, she wouldn't have seen him again. So it was just a greeting and politeness, but he didn't expect Chu Changfeng to nod directly, "Well, how long will it take?" ”

"Uh...... It's going to take about three or five days......" Xu Jiayi stumbled back, not knowing whether she was stunned or cold, and after finishing speaking, her body trembled, and she couldn't help but shiver.

"Well, I'll come back to you in five days. It's cold outside, so you should go in early. Chu Changfeng also realized at this time that he had blocked people at the gate of the courtyard, and the little girl was cold. So he didn't stay long, and after saying that, he took his leave and left.

Looking at the back of Chu Changfeng leaving, Xu Jiayi called Cuiyun in a bit of a daze, "Cuiyun, do you think your cousin is a little strange today?" ”

It's not a little weird, it's weird.

Cuiyun couldn't help muttering a few words, and after helping Xu Jiayi into the house, she poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it to her hand, "Girl, drink a cup of hot tea to warm up first." ”

After returning to Jiaxi Garden, Xu Jiayi simply ate dinner, took a warm bath, and then lazily lay on the bed to rest. As for the sachet that she agreed to make for Chu Changfeng, Xu Jiayi had already left it behind at this time.

Xiangqiao pinched Xu Jiayi's leg while talking about Cui Xin's situation.

Hearing that Cui Qing went to find Cui Xin before leaving, and then Cui Xin locked herself in the room without eating or drinking, and did not allow anyone else to enter, Xu Jiayi sat up from the bed and asked, "Where is my aunt?" Didn't she go to see Cui Xin? ”

"Nope." Cuiyun shook her head.

Xu Jiayi's face sank, and she knew a little in her heart, and beckoned Yuan Xiang over to ask if there was a maid in Cui Xin's yard who came to look for her today, Yuan Xiang shook her head a little dazedly, and said no.

Xu Jiayi thought for a while and ordered, "Ming'er, if Cui Xin is still like this, talk to me again." ”

"Yes......" Cuiyun responded, waiting for Xu Jiayi to fall asleep.
