Chapter 321
Chu Xiaobei go and take a look, that Zhang Gongzi is so demanding, I think it's better to ask her to cater to him, what does it have to do with us, I don't want to read these books, I might as well dress up myself at that time, make myself more beautiful and more eye-catching. ”
Ji said helplessly: "You can read it if you like it, and if you don't read it, just put it there, in short, these books can only be placed in your room, not anywhere else." Then she left Chu Xiaonan thought.
As long as she doesn't force herself to read it, it doesn't matter, just put it there, Chu Xiaonan didn't care about those books, and those books kept being left there to eat dust.
Chu Xiaobei forced himself to read the book for a few days, and finally he had a headache when he saw the book and wanted to sleep.
Seeing her like this, Ji Shi said, "You can't give up halfway, what have you learned after reading the book for so many days?" Tell my mother about it. ”
But Chu Xiaobei's head was mushy and blank, and he couldn't say anything, he squeaked and whined for a long time, but he just said the words "At the beginning of man, nature is good". Ji was so angry that he gave her a hard beating, and then told her not to go anywhere, even if she didn't eat, she had to memorize some good sentences, so as not to have no nutrition at all when she talked to Zhang Gongzi.
Chu Xiaobei felt aggrieved and tired, but she also knew that the Ji family was for her good, so she could only lock herself in the room and face those books.
Zhang Gongzi's impression of Chu Xiaobei was actually just average, and he didn't think she was too outstanding, and the two of them didn't say anything at that time, and he didn't know what Chu Xiaobei's personality was and what his eloquence was, but he listened to his parents' opinions and decided to contact her again.
He had already given Chu Xiaobei an invitation, inviting her to his family's summer resort in two days to play, and he could bring her family with him when the time came.
The people of the Chu family were naturally happy, the Ji family had already prepared clothes and jewelry for Chu Xiaobei, she learned the previous lesson, she didn't get too much jewelry for her, and the clothes were not too gorgeous, but tried to make them rougher and simpler, and the jewelry didn't use gold, it was all silver jewelry, and it was just two hairpins.
When they were about to go to the summer resort, the Ji family helped Chu Xiaobei dress up.
Chu Xiaobei looked at himself in the mirror, pouted and said: "This is like a young lady from a rich family, it looks like a girl who has never seen the world, I look like this, will the Zhang family really like it when I see it?" ”
Ji said: "Of course, the more simple and natural you are, the more they like it, last time you dressed up too grandly, the people of the Zhang family have opinions, and they almost ended this family business, this time we must be cautious, and when you talk to Zhang Gongzi, you must be careful not to show your wealth, and don't show what we have in our family, so as not to disgust Zhang Gongzi, you know?" ”
Chu Xiaobei pouted and said: "I know, I really don't know how there are such strange people as the Zhang family in the world, they actually don't like wealth and nobility, and they like people to dress up like this." ”
Ji sighed and said: "Who told us to fall into the middle of the road now, we can only listen to the arrangements of other people's families, we don't have much choice, you better behave well, don't disappoint your mother." ”
Chu Xiaobei nodded, of course she has to behave well, otherwise, she will definitely be compared to Chu Xiaonan, if she can marry the Zhang family smoothly, then she will marry better than Chu Xiaonan, and she will not dare to be arrogant in front of her in the future.
After dressing up, they set off in a carriage, this time Chu Xiaonan also followed, she also wanted to see who Zhang Gongzi was, the last time Chu Xiaobei saw Song Gongzi, she also had to take care of her.
The family set off in a carriage and brought some food to eat on the way. The summer resort is dozens of miles away from the city, built in a mountain col, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the surrounding scenery is also very beautiful.
Sometimes when the Zhang family is idle, they will come here to play and have a picnic, and they will invite some relatives and friends to come and live for a few days, there is a cook here, and there is a special house to watch, they are husband and wife, usually stay here, as long as the owner has instructions, they will prepare to eat, and then wait for them to come, and will clean the room in advance.
The people of the Zhang family came a day in advance, and after coming here, they told the cook what to prepare, and then the people of the Chu family came.
When Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang saw the new Chu Xiaobei, the two of them glanced at each other and nodded with satisfaction, such a simple girl is their first choice, they don't like to marry those flowery daughters to enter the door, such a lady is often rude and willful, selfish and rude.
Chu Xiaobei got out of the car and respectfully saluted them, Chu Xiaonan also stepped forward to salute them, Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang saw Chu Xiaonan and asked, "Who is this?" ”
Ji said with a smile: "This is my second daughter Xiaonan. ”
Mrs. Zhang nodded, she felt that Chu Xiaonan was a little better looking than Chu Xiaobei, and she looked smarter, but her dress was much more gorgeous, not as simple as Chu Xiaobei, but this was still what she looked like after she converged, she had planned to dress up more gorgeously before, but she was stopped by the Ji family, telling her not to make trouble for them, and not to leave the impression of luxury and waste to the Zhang family.
If she wants to go, she must be obedient, otherwise she will stay at home, and in the end, Chu Xiaonan removed some of the jewelry on her head, and changed her clothes to a one that is not so flamboyant and rich, but compared to Chu Xiaobei on the side, it is still too dazzling.
Chu Xiaobei was very unhappy when he saw that she had received the attention of Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang, so he took a step forward and deliberately blocked in front of Chu Xiaonan.
At this time, Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang remembered that this was their daughter-in-law, and they hurriedly invited their family in, saying that the meal was being prepared, and told them to wait for a while, so that they could sit down and drink tea and chat.
Chu Zongren said that they were not hungry, and praised this place as good, not only picturesque, but also mild, and it was really a pleasure to come and live here.
Master Zhang likes to hear people say that he is a fairyland on earth, and he is very happy to hear this, and then he talks with Master Chu, and when they chat, Mrs. Zhang also chatted with Ji, and they talked about some short things in the family, and some polite words.
Chu Xiaonan and Chu Xiaobei sat there in a regular manner, feeling a little bored, but they didn't dare to move.
