Chapter 61: It's Scary to Look Like
The name of Grandma Qi San has spread all over the Beijing circle, Li Miao has not only heard of it, but also seen it, not to mention that Qi Sanye is afraid of his daughter-in-law, and even Ling Xiao will not provoke this aunt if he has nothing to do.
This aunt is unreasonable to find three points of reason, and if she wants to be reasonable, she will not poke a hole in the sky.
If you know that your sister is being bullied?? Li Miao's heart trembled, she looked at Yun Xiu in a daze, and felt familiar with it, so it was.
"Miss Li, Miss Li?" Yun Xiu's hand shook in front of her eyes and said with a smile, "Flower tea tastes good, don't you really try it?" “
"I'll taste, I'll taste." Li Miao reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, and almost knocked over the tea cup when she lifted the tea lid.
Yun Xiu just beaten, didn't plan to be really embarrassed, "This rock sugar Gongju tastes the best when it is half warm, hot mouth, cold and sweet, you and I are of the same age, just say your own words, my grandmother believes in Buddhism, everything pays attention to chance, there is a fate to come together, it is difficult to hold hands without a fate." “
Li Miao now hates others saying that she has no fate with Ling Xiao, "You first came to the capital." How do you know the past between me and Ling Xiao, I am his unmarried wife, and our two families have been married. “
didn't understand the good words, Yun Xiu was not polite, poked people's lungs, "Miss Li's family affairs, I really heard one or two from my sister's mouth, aren't you quitting the marriage, you have retreated, how can you be considered a wife who has not passed the door?" Or are the rules of Yangzhou and Beijing different? “
The rules are the same everywhere, Li Miao's face was red, and she was speechless for a long time.
Yun Xiu successfully squeezed out, and said beautiful words: "In the end, it is the capital." Yangzhou can't compare, I'm going to say the wrong thing, Miss Li, don't blame me, I forgot to ask after talking for so long, do you still see Hou Yefa? It's okay for me to help you bring the message, but I don't know if Master Hou is here or not. “
She gave full play to the Yangzhou dialect, crispy and soft, even if Li Miao was very aggrieved, she couldn't get out.
"You??" Li Miao stared at the coquettishness of the eyebrows in the corners of her eyes, and a sentence popped out of her mind, "You are a vixen!" “
"Miss Li, how can you scold people?" Yun Xiu immediately showed a look of grievance. "I'm also a white girl, how can I become a vixen? You clearly bullied me as a foreigner, so unreasonable, don't go, I will ask the Hou Ye to come down and comment, and then go to the county lord of Pingkang. “
With that, he ran away with his skirt.
"Third girl, maybe you really misunderstood the little marquis." The maid whispered behind her, "That Yun girl is the sister-in-law of Third Master Qi, and it is reasonable for the county lord to take care of her, why should you offend people?" “
"Where did I offend her?" Li Miao insisted on her opinion, "You also saw it last time in the night market, when did Master Hou peel chestnuts for me?" She has only been in the capital for a few days, and she is coaxing the young master to turn around with a little gesture, do you listen to the tone of what she just said??"
Before the words fell, Ling Xiao's impatient voice came from outside the house: "What's the matter, don't stop watching a play?" “
Yun Xiu: "Miss Li is waiting for the Hou Ye in the side hall, and I, a foreigner, will not go in to disturb the two of you, so I will leave." “
When Li Miao heard this, her eyes widened, and she hurriedly ran to the bottom of the corridor, "Miss Yun, you just said that you were looking for Hou Ye to comment, what is your intention to leave this time?" Will you tell Hou Ye later that I drove you away, just because you are sowing discord. “
Ling Xiao ignored what Li Miao said, and stared at Yun Xiu with interest to see what she was doing.
Sure enough, Yun Xiu deliberately stood under the sun, and Ai Ai said: "Miss Li doesn't like me, I'll go, but Master Hou has been to Yangzhou, to be fair, Yangzhou is my accent, but Miss Li said like a fox spirit, isn't the city full of male foxes and female foxes?" “
Ling Xiao almost burst out laughing, he shook the corners of his mouth, endured it very hard, and said seriously, "Yangzhou is this tone, and it is very different from the capital. “
"Oh, Miss Li, I didn't lie to you." Yun Xiu frowned, three points true and seven points hypothesis, "You want to find the Hou Ye, I invited it for you, I know that the capital is full of nobles, and you look down on foreigners, but my father also eats the imperial court, don't be embarrassed by me in the future." “
Even if he knew her private temperament, Ling Xiao was still uncomfortable listening to it, and his eyes looked at Li Miao coldly, "How big is it to scold someone?" The Qi family also has Yangzhou people, I didn't see you and Mrs. Lu spilling, and all the bureaus in the Beijing circle were mixed up and cleaned by your ignorance. “
"I just said a few words to her, why didn't she have knowledge and don't have a trick?" Li Miao no one at home said that she was bad, and she was open-mouthed, "Which girl in the circle is as loud as her, only the fan building recruits customers??"
"Shut up!" Ling Xiao roared, "Where you have a pastime, you big girl are embarrassed to say it?" Shameless. “
As he spoke, he looked at Yun Xiu and said bluntly: "Still pestle to give people bad abuse?" Hurry up. “
"Ling Xiao! You're so partial to her? Li Miao's cry came from under the porch, "You are blind to me, I really can't see anything?" You treat others as treasures, what do people treat you as? She didn't talk to me like this just now, she was all pretending! “
She cried so much that she brought pear blossoms and rain, attracting the lively troupe.
Ling Xiao's face was completely unbearable, he snorted coldly, and dragged Yun Xiu's arm out of the garden.
In the carriage, he still had a cold face.
Yun Xiu wondered if he had played, and poured a cup of tea, "I'm thirsty, it's very hot, dissipate my anger." “
"Don't be thirsty, don't drink," Ling Xiao was angry when he saw her look at You Pian, "What are you pretending to be in front of me." “
"I didn't pretend," Yun Xiu said with a smile, "I just saw that you were interested, and I just played with Miss Li, how do I know that she is a straight person." “
At first glance, she is a girl who grew up by her family, and she doesn't know how to be warm or cold.
"What tricks did you do with her? I told you that I have everything to do. Ling Xiao hugged her, "She sows you, why don't you go up and shave one ear." “
"If I beat her, you won't be able to get off the stage." Yun Xiu leaned on his shoulder, "Don't say that you yell at her, even she is uncomfortable enough with a cold face, it's not a secret that there are contradictions between you, but I can't, she is your cousin." There was a commotion, who is the lord of Pingkang looking at, and what do you think of me. “
Ling Xiao always felt that she was thinking too much and too carefully, "Next time, don't say anything bad about yourself, what kind of Beijing circle looks down on foreigners, when do I look down on you, you just want the stars and moons, and I will take them off for you." “
Looking at this sweet mouth, Yun Xiu sat up, "You didn't coax the girl before, right?" “
Ling Xiao immediately denied it: "No, there is no one else but you." “
Yun Xiu: "??"
Devils believe it.
***
As for Li Miao, she was going to go back and cry, but she didn't expect her cousin to come to the door, and she finally found the person to talk to after a stomach full of grievances.
"Isn't it?!" My cousin's eyes widened and she said in surprise, "Not long after you got out of marriage, Ling Xiao likes other girls for half a year?" It's too fast. “
"It's morning and evening, you haven't seen Grandma Qi's sister," Li Miao sobbed, "It's just a fox, don't talk about Ling Xiao, which master doesn't like it." “
The cousin was skeptical: "Peugeot beauty? “
Li Miao nodded vigorously: "I feel that Ling Xiao's soul has been hooked away." “
"You said that I have the impression that Grandma Qi San is a Jiangnan woman who looks exquisite," her cousin comforted her, "But after watching it for a long time, it's just like that, how beautiful her sister is, can she compete with Tianxian'er?" What's more, you and Ling Xiao have no guesses, and they grew up together, no one can compare to this relationship. “
"Cousin, you have to help me!" Li Miao seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, "I didn't have any relatives and sisters when I was a child, so I was close to you, I know Ling Xiao's heart best, if it weren't for the lard to listen to Lao Shizi's divorce, how could Ling Xiao be offended." “
Speaking of divorce, my cousin sighed, "I advised you at the beginning, this is a dangerous move, you don't believe it." Now it's the meat in someone else's mouth, and you regret it. “
"What kind of temperament Ling Xiao has, you don't know!" Li Miao was full of sadness, "Has he said a few good words to me before?" Either impatient or told me to stay away, preferring to smile at the girl in the pink building. “
"But you also said that he took you out to play, and he did everything you asked." The cousin was helpless, "If you want to say that he doesn't like you at all, how can he kiss you." “
"Can you do something after drinking?!" Li Miao stomped her feet in a hurry, "What's the use of talking about this now." “
"It's not for you to think about it," the cousin naturally turned to her own family, "Just Miss Yun's two-faced and three-sided master, how does Ling Xiao like it, he is dazed, and the county lord is guarded, it is not a simple matter to enter the Hou Mansion." “
After a pause, he said, "Besides, if you didn't tell your aunt, your aunt will definitely not care." “
Having said that, Li Miao knew in her heart that if Mrs. Xing favored her more, the Lord of Pingkang would favor Ling Xiao more, if Ling Xiao insisted on marrying someone else, which mother would be willing to wronged her child.
She sighed faintly.
In late spring and early summer, the racecourse is surrounded by shade and the stands are moved to the shade, not only to expand the course. A racetrack was also made available.
The lord of Pingkang County appeared on the special table at the time, and as soon as he sat down, he ordered someone to prepare more chairs.
Li Miao pulled her cousin to the polo club in order to meet Ling Xiao, but she didn't expect Yun Xiu to sit next to the county lord and seemed to be chatting happily.
My cousin didn't know why: "Why don't you leave?" “
"Sister, that's the sister of Grandma Qi San, called Yun Xiu." Li Miao pointed, "Look at her like that, I scolded her for being a vixen, wrong to scold?" “
My cousin took the opportunity to look over--
The moon-white summer clothes are covered with goose yellow gauze shirts, the falling horse bun is deliberately crooked on the side, a flowery white plum hairpin is lined with black and green silk, and the ears of the ice species are crystal clear, like the green shadow of the blue water reflected on the skin of Saixue, at first glance, the fairy is beautiful and extraordinary.
"She's prettier than Grandma Qisan." My cousin's first impression was, "But I don't like her eyes, they're very charming." “
Li Miao sarcastically, "The girls in the Beijing circle are all dignified, but now they are different, and they have become a standout, you see that the one who talked to Qi Sanye secretly stared at it several times, and people didn't notice it." “
"Really." The cousin was angry with the enemy, and came up with an idea, "Don't be angry, don't be annoyed, in terms of identity and appearance, you belong to the thumb of the Beijing circle, she can sit next to the county lord, you can too, you are a cousin and niece." “
Li Miaozheng had this intention, patted the fine ash on his clothes, and paced past.
"The county lord is well." She went on stage and squatted.
The lord of Pingkang bowed slightly, and asked people to bring more chairs.
Li Miao sat down and looked at Yun Xiu with a smile: "Miss Yun is so coincidental, you also like polo?" “
Yun Xiu looked at the county lord and then at her, and said with a smile, "I just asked the county lord about the rules of the court, and I was timid." “
"You just said that Yangzhou doesn't play much polo," the lord of Pingkang asked, "what do you play?" “
"Pitching pots, waiting for the hot weather, rowing dragon boats," Yun Xiu said, "Throwing pots is simple, the most lively belongs to dragon boats, every year, every year there are crowds, and I can't get tired of seeing it." “
"Yangzhou has a lot of waters, and it is excellent for leisure boating." A light smile hung on the corner of the county lord of Pingkang's mouth, "I heard you say that dragon boats are also quite interesting. “
Yun Xiu continued: "The year before last, my third brother couldn't help but lobby his classmates, and he swore how difficult it would be to row a boat behind his father's back, but the group capsized when they got into the water, and two of them couldn't water and were fished up with bamboo poles. “
"A bunch of monkey cubs." The lord of Pingkang laughed out loud with a tea cup, and the mother-in-law next to him laughed.
Only Li Miao didn't hear the joke, and pulled the corners of her mouth to mean it.
The lord of Pingkang County was amused, opened the chatterbox, and said to the mother-in-law next to him: "Yesterday, the old marquis was still chattering, Brother Xiao bought a new horse, and the sun will consume money all day long. “
Yun Xiu smiled on his face, and his heart was somewhat unpleasant, Yun Zimo was a little talented in Yangzhou City, and the Yun family was also thick, how could he be inferior in the mouth of the lord of Pingkang.
And Li Miao, smiling, glanced at the racecourse from time to time, thinking about why Ling Xiao hadn't come yet.
As for Ling Xiao, it was not that he was not present, but was called by Qi Yuheng to the periphery to avoid the limelight.
Qi Yuheng said: "You are right to listen to me, don't drive Li Miao away, there is a godmother, and I am afraid that the two girls will fight." “
Ling Xiao sighed: "What am I afraid of when they fight, the court starts, I have to go." “
Qi Yuheng waved his hand: "Okay, you go, you go, let's talk about it first, Li Miao will make a fuss about it in a while, annoying your little aunt and grandmother, don't make peace with me again, Yun Ying scolds me every day for being full and idle." “
"You can just wash Yun Ying's feet with water," Ling Xiao looked disgusted, and said as he walked, "Find another shrine to offer, she eats rice and you eat bran, she eats noodles and you drink soup." “
Qi Yuheng: "??"
and Yun Xiu's pair of damaged mouths.
After all, he can't hide, Ling Xiao must go on stage to greet the lord of Pingkang County before the game, otherwise he will be banned by the old man when he goes back.
There were many people on the table, and he didn't bother to go up, but when he raised his eyes and swept over Yun Xiu, he was slightly stunned and quickly smiled--she wore the hairpin and earrings he gave today.
Lord Pingkang saw his son's expression in his eyes, quietly went down to the stands, and told him as usual, Ling Xiao waited for a long time before he chuckled: "Mother, there is a refreshing feeling of being surrounded by your daughter-in-law today, right?" “
"Daughter-in-law?" Lord Pingkang looked behind him, "You said Yun Xiu or Li Miao?" “
Ling Xiao didn't say anything: "Which one do you like?" “
The lord of Pingkang County patted him on the back and replied: "If Li Miao doesn't mess around, my mother is not dissatisfied, Yun Xiu is a clever girl, she knows how to please people, and she is also right with you, but Yun Yushi has already married a daughter far away, and it is difficult to say whether he is reluctant to marry another far." “
Ling Xiao asked: "If you want to be willing, do you agree?" “
"You have asked people to sit with me, don't shake your wit with me." The county lord of Pingkang said, "What does your father mean, he is willing to live in peace, don't be like the Li family, the city is full of storms, the face of the Hou Mansion can't stand the toss, and don't keep putting on your face if you are dissatisfied with Li Miao." “
This is the bottom line to tell Ling Xiao that the elders.
Ling Xiao is not stupid, and assures Yun Xiu: "You all said that Xiuxiu is clever, she must understand the truth, you put your heart in your stomach, she has measure, and I have it." “
"Okay." The county lord of Pingkang only cares about his son's feelings, "I haven't seen you care so much about any girl in the Beijing circle, Li Miao doesn't have it, in short, I have said all the truths that should be said, concentrate on the game, don't keep your eyes on the girl." “
"You've found out." Ling Xiao retracted his gaze and sneered, "Then I'll pass." “
The lord of Pingkang told him to be more careful and return to the stands. Li Miao had already left, and Yun Xiu sat in a proper manner and waited for her to come back.
"You go and play with Yun Ying," for the person her son likes, the county lord of Pingkang treats her differently, she can see that the little girl is very nervous, "There will be a lot of people coming to polo today, you move around more, and you are familiar with the people and things in the Beijing circle." “
It can also be regarded as a change of direction to make a request to the daughter-in-law.
Yun Xiu heard the sound outside the strings, squatted and said goodbye, there was only one thought in his heart, Yun Ying said, the lord of Pingkang County is not a good mother-in-law.
"I see you're not in high spirits. What's wrong? Yun Ying stared at the arena and said to her, "I just saw that you had a good chat with Lord Pingkang. “
"Nothing." Yun Xiu pulled her veil in frustration, "You said it." “
"The county lord of Pingkang is in love," Yun Ying thought that maybe the family would not be able to pour cold water in the future, "But you have a good heart, the old marquis is really good, you will see it sooner or later, and it is a hundred times more expensive to find the old man at a critical moment than the county supervisor." “
This is to teach her how to deal with Ling Xiao in the future.
Yun Xiu couldn't cry or laugh, as if she was going to marry into the Hou Mansion tomorrow.
The lord of Pingkang is arrogant, but it is right for her to get acquainted with Jingquan'er, after all, it is a major event in a lifetime.
Intermission. The young master who played ball and the girl who watched the game each gathered in small groups, and Ling Xiao saw that the third master of Qi and his wife threw Yun Xiu down again, which was pitiful, so he introduced the girl from the Beijing circle to know him.
The other party pulled Yun Xiu very enthusiastically and asked, "There will be Marseille in the future, will you participate?" “
"Marseille?" Yun Xiu didn't understand, "I don't know how to play, I'm afraid I won't be able to participate." “
The other person asked, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" “
Yun Xiu nodded and said yes.
"If you can ride a horse, we don't play, we just play, and the first one to cross the finish line has a colorful head."
Yun Xiu didn't care about any color heads, she just wanted to quickly integrate into this circle, "Then count me in, when will it start?" “
"Don't be reckless if you don't know how to ride a horse." Li Miao walked past them and pulled her hair, "You girls in the water towns south of the Yangtze River have fine skin and tender meat, who have seen the wind and sand in the north, I'm afraid that the horses in Yangzhou are not as fat as the capital." “
Yun Xiu looked at Ling Xiao, who had no time to be distracted on the court, and turned his head to Li Miao and smiled: "If you don't compare, you will know." “
Li Miao looked her up and down: "You plan to wear a gauze shirt and ride a horse?" “
As she spoke, she gave a look to the girls next to her, and then pointed to the hairpin on Yun Xiu's head: "You came for the first time today, have a good time, or use this plum blossom hairpin as a color head?" “
Someone immediately responded: "If you win, the hairpin still belongs to you, and if you can't win, discuss it with the person who took the lottery." “
Yun Xiu frowned slightly, but did not respond.
Li Miao immediately confirmed that he was imagining, and said excitedly: "The year before last, Ling Xiao also gave me a plum blossom hairpin, a red one, you have all seen it, and it is not used as a lottery head." “
"Did you win it back?" Yun Xiu opened his mouth and asked, "Or was it won by someone else?" “
You look at me, I look at you, and immediately don't squeak.
"Of course it was won back." Li Miao replied humbly, "A gadget that is not worth it, it doesn't hurt to lose." “
"Really?" Yun Xiu chuckled and took off the hairpin, "I'm also a worthless gadget, just for fun." I'll see you in a moment. “
Turn and leave.
After Ling Xiao finished the race, when she found Yun Xiu, she had already changed into riding clothes.
"Are you really going?" He grabbed her, "Everyone in the Beijing circle can ride horses, girls don't lose to masters, can you?" “
"I'm going to go if I can't do it." Yun Xiu withdrew his hand, "Li Miao took the hairpin you gave me as a lottery head, and I want to win it back." “
As she spoke, she pointed to his tall horse, "Lend it to me." “
Ling Xiao said that he didn't agree with anything, "Xiuxiu, you can't control it, I'll pick a smaller one for you." “
"I want it!" Yun Xiu snatched the reins. stepped on the stirrups neatly, and Ling Xiao was so frightened that he hurriedly helped him.
"Xiuxiu, I said you can't ride, the toes just clicked stirrups, and this saddle is not for girls."
"You help me tune it up," Yun Xiu took advantage of the situation, "Adjust it, I'll ride it for two laps and try it." “
"Xiuxiu, if you lose, you lose," Ling Xiao felt that there was nothing to worry about, and it was not that he couldn't afford it, "It's a big deal, I'll accompany you to the silver building to pick another one you like." “
"I don't," Yun Xiu twisted, "Li Miao wants to see me laugh, but I don't want her to get her wish." “
After a pause, "Are you tuned?" Don't transfer me to my second brother-in-law. “
"Tune the tune," Ling Xiao didn't have a rut, the heart of the woman was really terrible, "I'll adjust it for you to try, and I'll adjust it again if there is a problem." “
Yun Xiu nodded, and after the adjustment was done, he rode up again, and walked along the periphery for a while, feeling okay.
Ling Xiao tried to persuade: "Xiuxiu, it's enjoyable, it's too late to change horses." “
"No." Yun Xiu straightened his waist and found that his vision had become much wider, "Li Miao has already been on the track, I will go over now." “
Ling Xiao sighed.
Yun Xiu's voice floated from the front: "Don't follow, otherwise you won't want to see me until the end of next month." “
"Yo, isn't that Ling Xiao's horse?" Someone said to Li Miaonunu, "Who is the girl on horseback?" Look at the noodles. “
Li Miao gritted her teeth in anger, and introduced with a smile on her face: "Miss Yun who just arrived in the capital, the sister of Grandma Qi San, let's go say hello." “
A crowd flung the reins over.
Ling Xiao's horse is indeed very tall, Yun Xiu didn't think it just now, but now compared with the girls on horseback, he is half a head taller, and he has a sense of starry and moon-like vision.
Li Miao had something to say, "Miss Yun, the Qi family is not short of one or two horses, you don't look for Grandma Qi San, and you look for Ling Xiao more sexually, it's not in accordance with the rules." “
Yun Xiu was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "I didn't plan to participate, but I borrowed it on the spot, since I was competing, I had to take it seriously, otherwise it would be disrespectful to my opponent." “
"Don't worry if you don't respect it." Li Miao gloated, "Don't lose your face." “
Someone heard that the atmosphere was not right, and diverted the topic, "The flag is raised over there, go over and prepare." “
With the drumming command, the whip was raised and fell rapidly, and the horses on the track rushed out like arrows.
