For this father, Xu Jiayi really can't call the word "father", and she will never be euphemistic when she can call him by his name. Hearing the question, his thin lips opened slightly, and he slowly spit out three words from his mouth, "Xu Mingda." ”

Really.

The porter nodded in his heart, but his face was a little more disdainful, "The master went out today and was not at home, girl, if you have any urgent matter, you can tell the little one." When the master returns home, the little one can tell you about it. ”

Absence?

Xu Jiayi suddenly remembered that the middle feed of the Xu Mansion had always been controlled by the old lady, and it was useless to find Xu Mingda, it didn't matter if she wasn't there, she didn't bother to see him.

Xu Jiayi squinted slightly, "Is the old lady at home?" ”

I inquired about the situation in the house very clearly.

The porter sneered, "Girl, I'll tell you clearly, the old lady won't see you, so you can leave quickly." Over the years, few of the girls who have come to the door have been able to enter the house. Look at your appearance is not bad, find a good family in the future, and live a good life by yourself. ”

is also followed by two maidservants, and it looks like it is also a rich family.

If it weren't for the girl's good looks, he would have been able to say anything even more ugly.

Xu Jiayi glanced at the concierge's expression, knowing that he regarded himself as that kind of woman. However, you can also know from his words how romantic and happy Xu Mingda has been over the years. Thinking of this, Xu Jiayi felt sick.

Since the old lady was at home, she didn't bother to talk to the porter, and immediately led Cuiyun and Yuanxiang to the Xu Mansion, but was stopped by the porter.

Seeing that the porter was repeatedly blocked in front of Xu Jiayi, Cuiyun, who was good-natured, was also a little annoyed, and immediately scolded with a cold face, "Presumptuous! What are you that dare to stop the girl, why don't you get out of the way of the girl! ”

"Can you understand words?! I said you can't go in, you still go inside......" Listening to Cuiyun's scolding, the porter was also a little angry, and when he reached out and pointed at Cuiyun's nose, he wanted to greet her eighth-generation ancestor, but before the words could be spoken, he saw Xu Jiayi's sharp eyes sweeping over, I don't know why I felt so terrifying, and I was so frightened that I froze.

Xu Jiayi retracted her gaze, with a smile on the corner of her lips, and said sarcastically, "Speaking of which, I am also the eldest girl of your Xu Mansion, but I didn't expect to be stopped by a porter of you and couldn't get in." ”

The big girl of Xu's house?!

The porter blinked, and only after he reacted did he find that the woman had entered the door, and he couldn't help but beat his palm, and said in annoyance, "I said that it looks a little familiar." ”

"I have to tell Aunt Qing about this quickly." The porter closed the door of the house and trotted all the way around the cloister to a small courtyard.

When the news reached the south courtyard, a woman in a rose-pink dress raised her eyebrows slightly, put down the snack in her hand and stood up, and said with a smile, "The eldest girl is back, let's go and have a look." ”

"Aunt Qing, the eldest girl went to the old lady's side, and I'm afraid it's not good to go over at this time......" The maid stepped forward to help Aunt Qing get up, wanting to persuade her, but before she finished speaking, she saw Aunt Qing's sharp eyes sweep over, and she paused her voice at that time, and followed behind Aunt Qing.

The maid is also for the good of Aunt Qing, after all, the eldest girl who has not come back for more than ten years suddenly returned home, no matter what the reason is, it is also discussed with the old lady, what is the matter with her aunt?

Even whether the eldest girl knows the existence of this aunt is a problem.

However, Aunt Qing is favored in the house, and she has added a brother to the master, and she is her master, even if she wants to persuade her, someone has to listen to her.

Xiao Tao couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but she followed behind Aunt Qing respectfully on her face.

And here, when Mrs. Xu heard the maid say that Xu Jiayi came back, she thought she had heard it wrong, until she saw Xu Jiayi walking in from the door, and she was sure that the maid did not lie to herself. Even when the incident happened suddenly, Mrs. Xu didn't have time to think about what kind of attitude she should use to face her eldest granddaughter.

Glad?

The eldest granddaughter, who hasn't seen each other for more than ten years, has returned home, and it seems that she, who is a grandmother, should be happy. It's just that why Xu Jiayi didn't stay in Xu Mansion at the beginning, that is also well known. Since then, Mrs. Xu has asked Xu Mingda to go to Shangshu Mansion to bring people back to raise her, but she can't even enter the door of Shangshu Mansion, so she can only give up.

Even after not seeing her for so long, she almost forgot that she had such a granddaughter.

Before Mrs. Xu could figure it out, she saw Xu Jiayi walk in from outside the door. I saw that she was wearing a powder blue colorful flower and grass pattern satin skirt and white embroidered plum blossom pleated skirt, with only white jade beads on her head, although the style was simple, but the whole person looked fresh and elegant.

This outfit makes the girl's face more and more pretty, especially the bearing of the whole body, which makes people can't take their eyes off. Rao is old lady Xu, and she has to praise in her heart, Shangshufu has raised this girl very well.

"Greetings to the old lady." Xu Jiayi bowed slightly, with a correct posture, so that people couldn't make the slightest mistake.

Mrs. Xu glanced at the grandmother who had been with her all her life, and when she saw that she was also surprised, she hurriedly turned around and said, "Get up quickly." ”

"I haven't seen each other for so many years, and they have all grown so tall, my wife and son are almost unrecognizable." Mrs. Xu stepped forward and pulled Xu Jiayi to sit down and speak, "Grandmother originally wanted to see you, but I was afraid that you would be sad to see your grandmother, but now that you can come to visit your grandmother, grandmother is very happy." ”

Does this mean that Shangshufu is willing to forgive Mingda?

Mingda's official position has been repeatedly frustrated over the years, obviously due to the influence of Shangshufu. If there is Shangshufu to help, then Mingda is not like a fish in water, soaring, thinking of this, Mrs. Xu's eyes can't help but light up.

"My granddaughter came back today because she had something for her grandmother to decide."

"What?"

The corners of Xu Jiayi's lips curved, and she euphemistically explained her intentions. Seeing Mrs. Xu's ugly face, Xu Jiayi raised her eyes as if she hadn't seen it and continued to ask curiously, "Then will my grandmother give me all my mother's dowry?" ”

Mrs. Xu smiled reluctantly, and suddenly understood why this eldest granddaughter came back.

It's just that most of the Xu Mansion has relied on the income of the shops and Zhuangzi left by the Wang family for so many years to maintain expenses, and even have some surplus money left. Where is Mrs. Xu willing to give up this golden bump, it is almost like asking for her life.

It's just that Xu Jiayi's words couldn't be faulted at all, and Mrs. Xu's face froze, "Your mother's dowry will naturally be left to you, but you are still young, and your grandmother will collect it for you first, so as not to make anyone fight the idea of this money." You are my grandmother's own granddaughter, my Xu family's daughter-in-law, will your grandmother still harm you? ”

"I can ask my uncle and aunt to keep it for me." Xu Jiayi pursed her lips and smiled, looking harmless to humans and animals, "Although it is a long time ago, don't worry, grandmother, Xiangqiao is her mother's dowry maid, and she also received a share of the dowry list." If you can't remember, I'll have someone bring you one when I get home. ”

"One by one, it's not my careful eye as a grandmother. Your aunt and uncle also have their own children, and if you give them them, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not secretly leave them to their own children, so it is better to put them with your grandmother to save your worries. Look at the past ten years, grandmother has not kept it well for you. ”

And she's got her share here?!

But it's also good to be able to admit it with a little face, otherwise it's really embarrassing to pretend to be crazy and stupid like a shrew in the market.

Xu Jiayi sneered in her heart, but pretended to be upright on her face, "They are not such people." ”

The old lady was just about to say something more, but at this moment, a maid came in outside the door and said, "Old lady, Aunt Qing is here." ”

"What is she here for?" A touch of disgust flashed in Mrs. Xu's eyes, and she said impatiently, "Let her go back." ”

"Why is the old lady so angry today, who made you angry...... Aunt Qing hired Tingting to walk in from outside the door, and casually saluted the old lady and Xu Jiayi, and found a place to sit down without waiting for the two of them to get up, looking like a housewife.

Old Lady Xu looked displeased, staring coldly at Aunt Qing without saying a word.

This woman was a vixen by nature, and since he entered the door, Mingda has been sleeping in her yard almost every day. As long as she was a little harsh on her, Mingda begged her to bypass her in the child's presence.

The sky can see that what she wants to do is too late to do it!

After being deflated a few times in Aunt Qing's hands, the old lady also learned to be obedient, Aunt Qing can do whatever she wants, as long as she doesn't provoke her. At least in front of her, her Aunt Qing also had to serve herself with her eyebrows lowered and pleasing to her eyes. This can be regarded as some kind of tacit understanding reached by the two.

"I heard that the eldest girl is back, and the concubine also wants to come to greet the eldest girl, so as not to see her outside in the future and make a joke." Aunt Qing said with a smile, her eyes slowly fell on Xu Jiayi, and she looked up and down, "The eldest girl looks really handsome." ”

"I heard my husband say that my sister was a beauty when she was still alive, and the concubine didn't believe it much, but now that I see the eldest girl, I know how graceful my sister is. It's a pity that my sister's life is not good, so I went so early. Although Aunt Qing said that she was sorry in her mouth, there was a vague smile on her lips, which was clearly ironic.

Cuilan and Yuanxiang are not fools, so they naturally heard the voice of this young aunt.

They are the maids of Shangshu Mansion, and they are Xu Jiayi's maidservants, listening to the other party's blatant sarcasm of Xu Jiayi's mother, they couldn't help but purse their lips and glance at Aunt Qing, and they didn't see Xu Jiayi's orders, so they stood behind Xu Jiayi respectfully.
