Chapter 31: The Four Girls Look at Each Other

When Mrs. Xu, who was still smiling with joy just now, heard this, her face collapsed. Old Mrs. Xu opened her mouth to say something, but Xu Jiayi didn't give her a chance to speak at all, so she turned around and left.

"That's right," Xu Jiayi paused as if she suddenly remembered something, turned her head and continued, "I almost forgot that the Xu Mansion has been in contact with people for so many years, and I also used a lot of my mother's dowry as a supplement during this period, which is so ......."

Old Mrs. Xu's eyes lit up instantly, and she looked at Xu Jiayi with expectation.

Over the years, the Xu Mansion has been unable to make ends meet, and the Wang family's dowry has been supplemented a lot, and now it is impossible to send it back completely.

It would also be great if you could cross out the money that had already been spent and not return it.

Xu Jiayi thought about it sideways, and continued coquettishly, "In this case, then ask grandmother to work harder, and it is okay to convert it into cash." ”

Xu's mansion is not big, Xu Jiayi entered the door with the front foot, and the people in each room and courtyard on the back foot got the news. When they knew that Aunt Qing had also passed, everyone sent their henchmen to guard it, and they would come back to report if there was any situation.

"Mother, I heard that Xu Jiayi is back?" Xu Jiamin entered the room from outside the door, found a place to sit down, and muttered, "I haven't come back for so many years, and I thought she had forgotten her surname Xu and was from the Xu family!" As soon as I came back, I ran to my grandmother's house, and I didn't know what to do when I came back. ”

Aunt Lin glanced at Xu Jiamin, her brows furrowed slightly, although she didn't scold, but the meaning of stopping in her eyes was also obvious.

Xu Jiamin saw what Aunt Lin meant, but she didn't stop there, but pursed the corners of her lips and replied indifferently, "This is our yard, and there are no outsiders, what does my daughter want to say, is it difficult to say that she wants to hold it in her heart?" Besides, my daughter was not wrong. ”

The people who can stay in the courtyard are their henchmen, they are all trustworthy people, if they can't relax and say whatever they want, then what's the point of living?

Aunt Lin sighed helplessly, raised her hand and touched Xu Jiamin's head, "Mother knows that you have had an idea since you were a child, although this is our yard, but you have to carefully follow the truth from your mouth." Always remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, even those nobles don't like girls with broken mouths. ”

"My daughter knows ......" Xu Jiamin also thought of the smart and obedient character that she had worked hard to manage for so many years, glanced at her mouth and didn't say anything more, but in her heart she slandered Xu Jiayi's belly, and then asked out loud, "What did she do when she came back?" ”

"Mother doesn't know, but I'll find out later."

Xu Jiamin nodded, and after talking with her aunt for a while, she saw the henchman next to her aunt coming in from outside, her face a little ugly. As soon as the maid entered the door, Xu Jiamin asked directly, "Xu Jiayi, what is she doing when she comes back?" ”

"Aunt Hui, second girl, the eldest girl came back to ask the old lady for her dowry." The maid reported, and as soon as the words fell, Xu Jiamin's voice sounded, "Grandmother agreed?" ”

"Agreed, I'm working with Mama Xu at this time to sort out the bill."

Aunt Lin couldn't help but slapped the table with her hand, "Ridiculous! ”

"Not long after the eldest girl arrived, Aunt Qing also passed." The maid paused when she said this, looked at Aunt Lin and stopped talking, even Xu Jiamin saw that something was wrong, and only said, "Don't talk about it, if there is anything else you want to say, just say it." ”

"There's that slut everywhere." Aunt Lin secretly scolded in her heart, but there was no expression on her face, but the next report from the maid was so shocked that she immediately stood up from the chair, pinched the handkerchief and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?" Is that woman happy? ”

"Yes, I invited a doctor to diagnose the pulse, and it has been determined that it is a happy pulse."

"Boom la la ......"

The tea cups on the table were all thrown to the ground by Aunt Lin, and everyone was shocked. Xu Jiamin helped Aunt Lin sit down and persuaded, "Mother, dissipate your anger, don't be angry......"

Not to mention that Xu's Mansion is another piece of chickens and dogs, after Xu Jiayi returned to Shangshu Mansion, she first went to Zhao's courtyard to say goodbye and came back. Zhao was not in the house, so he explained to the maid, and then went back to Jiaxi Garden.

From a distance, I saw Xiangqiao waiting for her at the gate of Jiaxi Garden, and when she came back, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted her, "Girl, you're back." ”

Xu Jiayi nodded, answered lightly, and after returning to the room, she collapsed on top of the soft collapse, and drank a glass of warm water brought by Xiangqiao to moisten her throat before exhaling comfortably, slowly closing her eyes and pretending to sleep.

"Girl, the eldest princess is going to hold a flower-viewing banquet on the sixth day of the sixth month of June, and she also sent an invitation to the house." Xiangqiao lowered her voice and whispered, afraid of arguing Xu Jiayi, seeing that Xu Jiayi didn't make the slightest movement, and didn't even raise her eyelids, Xiangqiao continued, "The eldest lady asked the girl to prepare, and then go with Miss Yun." ”

"Can I go too?" Xu Jiayi opened her eyes and looked at Xiangqiao in surprise.

Since she was six years old, at the birthday banquet of Mrs. Mu in Jiaqing Bofu, after she fought with Chen Xuan, the concubine of General Zhongyi's mansion, she was unconscious for several days and frightened everyone, and the Zhao family did not take her out.

Afraid that he would be unhappy to see the other sisters go out, the eldest aunt and even her cousin stayed in the house. Even the two cousins of the Cui family were implicated because of this, and they were detained in the mansion and were not allowed to leave the mansion at will. Because of this incident, Cui Qing has not scolded her much over the years, and she has taken care of her own losses, and Xu Jiayi can only endure it.

But these are not the point, the point is why he took the initiative to let her go out this time?

"Yes," Xiangqiao nodded, "not only the girl, but also Miss Qing and Miss Xin also went with her." ”

"All going?"

"Yes, that's what early summer said to the slaves."

In the early summer, she was the personal maid by the side of the eldest aunt, and what she said was naturally what the eldest aunt meant.

Xu Jiayi nodded to indicate that she understood, and then collapsed softly on the soft collapse.

Gu Tong and his cousin's marriage is considered yellow, seeing that his cousin is about to meet next month, he wants to come to his aunt to bring his cousin this time, first, he wants his cousin to go out for a walk, and second, he also wants to see if there is a suitable one.

Cui Qing has also been with Lu for a few days, Cui Qing has a high spirit, and he looks down on those talented masters, and he wants to marry into a high-ranking family, but no one is matchmaking. Cui's was so anxious about her marriage that she couldn't do it, although she also wanted her daughter to marry a high family, but seeing her daughter getting older day by day, she could sigh 800 times a day.

In addition, Cui Qing is getting stronger and stronger now, although Cui is her mother, she is helpless.

I want my aunt to bring her, which also means to look at her for her. And such an occasion is also a great opportunity for Cui Qing.

As for her and Cui Xin, it should be in passing.

lest I take my two sisters and I don't take them, and I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and there is a dislike between several sisters. Although none of them are the biological girls of the eldest aunt, the eldest aunt always does things with a bowl of water, so that people can't find the slightest mistake, of course, there is also the meaning of letting their sisters love each other and support each other in the future.

Thinking about this, Xu Jiayi is no longer entangled in this flower-viewing banquet, whether it is appreciating people or flowers, she is a foil on the left and right.

I slumped down on the soft couch and squinted slightly for a while, only to find that it was getting dark outside. Xu Jiayi stood up and moved, so that Xiangqiao didn't have to set up dinner in the yard, and called Cuilan out of Jiaxi Garden.

Xu Jiayi did not go to the main house, but turned around and went to Wan'an Hall. The maid in the old lady's house greeted her with a smile when she saw Xu Jiayi coming.

Xu Jiayi bowed slightly, let Cuiyun behind her help the person up, and asked, "What is my grandmother doing?" Ready for dinner? ”

"The old lady has just passed the dinner, and now the maid is setting the table. Mama Su was talking with the old lady, and the eldest lady was also there. ”

"It just so happened that I came to my grandmother's place for a meal." Xu Jiayi joked with a smile.

The maid wanted to go in and pass the word, but it can be seen that Xu Jiayi waved her hand at herself to signal that she didn't have to, so she retreated.

In the house, Zhao sat beside the old lady and was pinching the old lady's legs.

She came to the old lady at this time, because she heard that the old lady wanted her to go to the flower viewing banquet hosted by the eldest father, so she brought the two girls from the Cui family and came over on purpose. It was Mama Su next to the old lady who came to pass the word, although she answered, she still wanted to discuss some things with the old lady.

Cui Qing is now sixteen years old, and he has already reached the age of saying goodbye. In private, she has also seen some sons, but the old lady and Cui's side didn't mention it, and it's not good for her, who is an aunt, to open this mouth first.

Cui Qing wants to marry high, and these Zhao families know this. It's just that Cui Qing's identity is embarrassing, and he says whether he is high or not, and whether he is low or not, so he came over to ask the old lady what she meant about the marriage of these granddaughters.

The two of them were talking about it just now.

"Finland, there are still four girls in the house who have not yet been married. If you usually look at the age-appropriate person, pay more attention, we don't pay attention to any doors, as long as the character is good and a motivated. The old lady said slowly, thinking of Wang Yunxiu and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"Especially Sister Yun, we didn't handle the matter of Gu Hou's Mansion before, so she was wronged, this time we must be carefully selected and choose a good family for her, so that she can live a comfortable and smooth life for the rest of her life."

Zhao also felt sorry for his girl, and nodded, "My daughter-in-law can save it." ”

I don't want my daughter to be prosperous and rich, I just want her to be safe and happy all her life. Listening to the old lady's words, Zhao lowered his eyes and thought to himself.

"And Sister Qing, the age is not too young, it's time to settle down, you have to pay more attention, it's okay to take these two girls out of the house to see each other."

The girl in Shangshu's Mansion is both prosperous and lossy. If you point out the two girls of the Cui family at will, you will lose the face of Shangshu Mansion at that time.

What's more, these two girls can be regarded as she grew up, and it is false to say that there is no emotion. Although there are some inappropriate things in the behavior of the two girls, they are generally good, and naturally I hope they can live well.

Thinking of her grandchildren, the old lady also felt that her head hurt.
