Chapter 45: Covered with water
I sat on the couch until midnight, and finally had to accept the fact that I couldn't go back. The saddest thing about a person's life is not that the money is not spent when the person dies, but that the money is gone, and the person is still alive!!
Xia Chuxin regretted it, why didn't he try to see if he could go back and then arrange the future? The shiny golden treasure has been given away. changed from a wealthy family to a poor egg overnight, for a master like Xia Chuxin who sacrificed his life and gave up his wealth, it was absolutely unacceptable.
tiptoeing to open the door of the girl's room, the two girls were sleeping soundly, and Ruan Er said two words in her dreams from time to time. Xia Chuxin reflected the moonlight cast from the window, and finally determined that two jade bracelets were worn on the wrists of the two girls. Picked out some of the mutton fat paste prepared in advance and gently applied it to Ruan Er's wrist, holding the bracelet in the air with both hands and shaking it from side to side, but there was no half effect, Xia Chuxin muttered in his heart: Is he too good for this girl? How can I eat so white and fat every day, and my wrists are about to catch up with my two thicknesses. After a while, the bracelet was taken off forward, but the hand rest was too wide and Shengsheng was stuck. At this time, Ruan Er seemed to have some feelings, and her other hand came over and clasped the bracelet tightly. Xia Chuxin knelt on the side of the kang, and lifted Ruan Er's hand with subtle movements, and when he was secretly happy, he suddenly saw Ruan Er grabbing himself with his backhand, jumped up and shouted: "Catch the thief, catch the thief." ”
Liu Er on the side sat up when she heard the sound, and said sleepily: "Where is the thief?" Where is the thief? ”
Xia Chuxin hurriedly jumped on the kang, covered Ruan'er's mouth with one hand, and said in a panic: "Shut up and shut up, it's me, it's me." ”
Ruan Er looked at the person opposite carefully, and it took a long time to see it clearly, and she said in surprise: "Second Miss? ”
"Second Miss?" Hearing this, Liu Er hurriedly stood up, and when she got closer, she saw that it was indeed the second miss.
"Ahem." In order to hide his embarrassment, Xia Chuxin had to cough a few times and said, "That, I heard movement in your house just now, so I came in and took a look." ”
Ruan Er and Liu Er looked at each other with a look of disbelief.
"But Second Miss, why did you come to see us and take off my bracelet?" Ruan Er asked. That's right, she saw with both eyes that the second lady was taking off her bracelet just now.
"That, that, uh." Xia Chuxin hesitated for a long time and didn't know how to answer.
Liu Er suddenly snorted softly and said, "Could it be that the second lady wants to take the bracelet back?" ”
Ruan Er turned her head and said, "How come, this bracelet was given to us by the second miss, how can we go back again, the second miss is not that kind of person." ”
Hehe. Hehe. What can I do? I'm helpless too.
The words have already come to this point, that is, Xia Chuchu's idea that he can't beat two girls anymore when he dies poor. The southeast who was sent out secretly wanted to go back, if this is spread out, will you still be a person in the princess's mansion in the future?
"Of course not. They all said they were for you. I just heard movement in the house, maybe Ruan Er's voice talking in her sleep. Okay, okay, let's go back to sleep. I went back to sleep too. As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Chuxin raised his feet and left, which was a shame.
The two girls and the second monk were confused, no matter what, go to bed first.
Three steps and two steps back into the house, closed the door tightly, lying on the couch but still unable to sleep, the two bracelets don't matter, but the other things have to come back, right? Others are not short of money. First of all, starting with my father, there must be no problem. Thinking about it like this, my heart is very relieved, and gradually sleepiness hits, and I will go to Zhou Gong!
"Chuxin, your letter to your father has been received, and your filial piety has also been received for your father, but you said in your letter that you should take care of your father, what does this mean?" Xia Jingxiang asked unclearly.
Xia Chuxin said with a smile: "Father, the daughter does not have the appearance of the eldest sister to match the glorious lintel of the prince, nor does she have the ability to share the worries and problems of the eldest brother for her father, but the daughter is grateful for her father's care and love, so she offers these treasures to show filial piety, although the father will not value these things outside the body, but after all, this is also a piece of filial piety of the original heart." ”
When Xia Jingxiang heard this, he burst into tears, and said: "Your father is very happy if you have this heart, not only can you not accept these things for your father, but I also want to reward you with some Jiashang your filial piety." ”
As he spoke, he beckoned to the housekeeper beside him and said, "Take the second lady to pick out some things you like, and send them back to Lanxi Pavilion along with these." ”
"Thank you, father."
Footsteps lightly with the butler all the way into the treasure room in the house, the door opened, it was called a jewel, golden light.
Aha, ahahaha, ahaha!!
"Second Miss, Second Miss?"
Who's calling me? Xia Chuxin opened his eyes, a round face came into view, and he shouted in fright: "Ah." ”
The round face was getting up, and Xia Chuxin saw clearly that it was Ruan Er. Look around again, huh? How in the house? Didn't you go with Uncle Butler to pick up the baby? Is it a dream?
Hi, it turned out to be a dream. But on second thought, maybe that's a good sign!
After freshening up, Xia Chuxin instructed the two girls to move freely, and asked the family to find out that his father was in the study at this time, so he went to the study alone.
At the door of the study, he met Xia Duo who came out of his face, and Xia Chuxin was in a good mood, so he said hello with a smile on his face and said, "Mao Ning!" ”
Xia Duo looked surprised and said, "What kind of crazy thing is going on early in the morning." ”
"Good morning to you." He is uneducated, so don't worry about him.
Xia Duo's eyes wandered, and it took a long time before he said, "I received your things, but don't expect me to say thank you, those were originally our mansion things." ”
Xia Chuxin doesn't care about him, Xia Duo is a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person, but what I gave you is only two jujubes, and I didn't plan to go back. Turning around and going into the study, his father sat at the table, holding a letter in his hand, Xia Chuxin stepped forward in a hurry and grabbed the letter in his hand, glanced at it, but found that it was not his own letter, the letter was full of traditional characters, and he seemed to see a few words: On the way? Kill? The day after tomorrow?
Xia Jingxiang was defenseless and took away the letter, and at this time he was also flustered, and said sharply: "Come back quickly." ”
Xia Chuxin had never seen such a ruthless Xia Jingxiang, and he couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and obediently returned the letter in his hand to Xia Jingxiang.
When the letter arrived, Xia Jingxiang hurriedly stuffed the letter under a book. Raising his head again, he has changed to his usual easy-going face.
"Why did you come here early in the morning, the letter and things you sent yesterday have been received by your father, and you should take care of your father in the letter, is there something wrong? My father is planning to see you in a moment. ”
Xia Chuxin muttered in his heart, is this old man secretly planning something unspeakable? It's so sneaky. But that's none of my business, the most important thing now is to get the treasure back as soon as possible.
put on a smile and said: "Father, the daughter does not have the appearance of the eldest sister to match the prince, and the glorious lintel does not have the ability to share the problems for the father like the eldest brother, but the daughter is grateful for the care and love of her father, so she offers these treasures to show filial piety. ”
When Xia Jingxiang heard this, he burst into tears, and said, "Your father is very happy if you have this heart." ”
Yes, yes, sure enough, I had a dream that was a good omen. The next thing is for my father to tell the housekeeper to take him to pick up the baby!
Then I heard Xia Jingxiang say: "Since it is a piece of filial piety at the beginning of the heart, then I will accept it for my father." ”
Just take it? Xia Chuxin is a spirit, what? Accepted?
"Huh? It's not what I envisioned. Xia Chuxin muttered to himself.
Xia Jingxiang frowned and said, "What did you say?" ”
"No, nothing was said. It's good if my father doesn't dislike it. I went back first, I was a little sleepy, I went back to sleep. Goodbye father. With that, Xia Chuxin turned around and left the study like a walking corpse, leaving Xia Jingxiang with a confused face.
Kid, what's wrong today?
He walked back to Lanxi Pavilion with his head drooping and struggled, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he heard Helianmo's voice.
"Xinxin, you're finally back."
Helenmo? Xia Chuxin suddenly became excited again, yes, there is Helian Mo, he will definitely not accept what he gave him.
crossed Pinggu, grabbed Helian Mo's shoulder, looked at his eyebrows, and said, "Did I tell you, in fact, you are very handsome." ”
Helian Mo's face turned crimson in an instant, and his eyes almost flashed a few hearts.
"Xinxin, you've finally found me."
"yes, yes. I feel like the world is the best for you now. ”
"Xinxin, I said that one day I will definitely impress you, you see, sure enough, the emperor lives up to his heart."
"By the way, my girl sent it to your house yesterday, that, that." Xia Chuxin gestured to the shape of a box and hinted.
Helianmo pointed to the table on the side, Xia Chuxin looked at it, there were two boxes on the table, which were the three that he sent yesterday, Helianmo walked to the table and said, "Oh, I'm here to talk to you." ”
"Helianmo, I really have the urge to make a promise now." Xia Chuxin paced towards the table as he spoke, and couldn't wait to open the box.
Full of boxes, what is this?
"What is this?" Xia Chuxin rummaged through the box a few times, and found that there were other foods besides pastries here, so he asked.
Helian Mo opened the other two boxes, still full of food, and said, "I was really touched to see these things you sent back when I returned home yesterday. Yesterday I met Su Huaixuan, he said that you love treasures, if I want to marry you in the future, I will definitely get a lot of money, I know that you are not a greedy and vain woman, if you want to bask in gold and silver in the future, come to my house at any time, my door will always be open for you. After that, he pointed to a few boxes and said, "These are some snacks in my hometown, there are dried meat and some dried fruits, you must love to eat." ”
"Ahh Yes. Yes. Xia Chuxin shouted three times, pushed Helianmo out of the door, and said, "I want to sleep, you guys get out of here." With that, he slammed the door shut.
Helian Mo stayed at the door, at a loss, turned his head to look at Pinggu, and suddenly realized: "Why are you wearing black clothes today, I don't like black in my heart, no wonder she will be unhappy, don't wear black clothes in the future." ”
Pinggu's face was full of grievances, thinking to himself what this has to do with me, it's not a day or two since I've been wearing black. These little masters are really hard to serve. I thought so, but Pinggu still had to echo: "Yes." ”
So the master and servant climbed out the way they had come, along the wall.
