Chapter 18: A Surprise Visit

This is Liu Yingxue's first night in the Gao family's ancestral house, a little nervous in her heart, looking around the wing room arranged for her by Gao Mingxuan, although the room is not big, but although the sparrows are small, the furnishings are very complete, the bed is soft, and the bedding is also thick, compared to the rush outside, the life here is much better.

Xiao Cui prepared a charcoal fire for her, and after a while, the house was warm, she sat by the charcoal fire, motioned for Xiao Cui to sit down too, and the master and servant sat together.

She looked at Xiao Cui, and saw that this maid had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, she should be a good person to get along with, Gao Mingxuan would pick people, and she would definitely not send someone with a bad temper over.

"Xiaocui, now that I have just arrived, I am not familiar with the ancestral house, tell me about the current situation of the ancestral house." Liu Yingxue asked with a pleasant face.

Xiao Cui saw that she was gentle and gentle, and she did not have the same sharp posture as other masters, she was a little relieved, and said with a fifteen-ten: "Miss Biao, I came from Kyoto with the old lady, and the uncle and the lady came together, as well as the two cousins of the young master, they are not easy to get along with, the young master has not yet married, the old lady is old, and the lady Wei gradually takes charge of the real power in the house, this time I arrived at the ancestral house, and the lady still wants to take charge of one or two." ”

Speaking of Mrs. Wei, she has a bit of an image, she has seen it a few times before, she is a sharp-toothed person, she was originally the wife of a concubine, which turn of the affairs of the Hou Mansion will be decided by her, if it were not for the early death of Gao Mingxuan's parents, the Hou Mansion would not be in charge of the Wei family.

Liu Yingxue pondered for a moment and sighed: "In the future, our master and servant should be careful, don't mess with Mrs. Wei, you have wronged you by following me, a down-and-out master." ”

Xiao Cui poured a cup of hot tea for her, thoughtfully put it in her hand and comforted: "Miss Biao's noble status is just a temporary hardship, there may be a day in the future, Mrs. Wei is just temporarily in charge of the Hou Mansion, and when the young master marries a wife, the Hou Mansion will naturally be managed by the young lady." ”

She took a sip of tea, which was warm and comfortable, but thinking about her cousin in the future, she was inexplicably a little sour, and now Gao Mingxuan is very good to her, like a sister, and if she becomes a relative in the future, the relationship will gradually become estranged, and the only person who cares about her will no longer exist.

Liu Yingxue squinted her eyes and muttered: "Xiaocui, high status doesn't mean anything, my father and brother died in battle, my second brother's whereabouts are unknown, the family is defeated, I am nothing now, just a poor worm." ”

Xiao Cui pursed her lips, wanting to say something, but she didn't know how to speak, she only felt a little pitiful.

The next day, Liu Yingxue woke up from her sleep, there was a noisy noise outside, she rubbed her eyes, got up and got dressed, and just opened the door, a purple figure walked in with a big grin.

"Yo, this is the little snow sister that Ming Xuan said, but she looks quite chic." Wu looked at her for a moment, with a little contempt in his eyes.

With the only impression she had, she remembered that Wu was the wife of Gao Mingxuan's cousin, and it stands to reason that she should call Wu a cousin-in-law, suppressing the dissatisfaction in her heart, she respectfully shouted to Wu: "I came in a hurry yesterday, and I haven't gone to see the two sisters-in-law yet." ”

"You are the young lady of the Protectorate Mansion, and if you want to see you, I will come to see you, otherwise I can't afford to accept it." Wu's words were a little sour.

A moment later, a pretty-looking and delicately dressed woman walked in, and she fixed her eyes on Zhang, the wife of another cousin.

She chuckled in her heart, today is really lively, and they have all come to her little house.
