Chapter 44: The Head

The old lady said, "You little ones, go and greet your sister." ”

When everyone in the room heard this, their expressions moved, and their hearts were thoughtful.

The Hou Mansion sent several people to pick it up, but Xu Xi kept refusing and was unwilling to return to the Hou Mansion. Everyone is thinking of watching a good show. They felt that even if Xu Xi was finally taken back to the Hou Mansion, he would have to be disliked by the old lady, and the future would not be easy.

But looking at this situation now, it doesn't look like it.

Calling someone to greet him, this is to make Xu Xi's face.

Zhao Ruyu's brows furrowed.

This situation is becoming more and more different from the previous life. In her previous life, the old lady didn't give Xu Xi such a big face. Not to mention greeting, no one gathered, a few young masters were not there, only the Wei family, the Su family and a few of their little girls were present, and they dispersed after seeing it hastily.

Xu Xi took Qiao, not only did not disgust the old lady, but took it seriously.

She lowered her eyelids and wrung her handkerchief.

Seeing that she didn't move, Zhao Rurui quickly pulled her up and went out of the ranks, and answered "yes" with everyone.

"Grandmother, although I am older than my sister, I am very happy to have another sister in my heart. I also went with my sisters to greet them. Zhao Rurui said.

"Yes, yes, the fourth sister can say what is in my heart." Zhao Ruxin of the big house hurriedly echoed.

The children in the house, except for Zhao Ruxin and Zhao Rurui, and the eldest young master Zhao Jingli, who is half an hour older than Xu Xi, are either as old as Xu Xi or younger than her. Although the old lady meant that she was young and orderly, she only asked her younger brother and sister to greet her, but Zhao Ruxin and Zhao Rurui were both concubines, so they didn't dare to take Qiao and sit here without moving. Don't you see the eldest young master Zhao Jingli and the second young master Zhao Jingan also standing up?

Zhao Jing was immediately only half an hour older than Xu Xi, and Zhao Jing'an was half an hour older than Xu Xi, but they were all elder brothers.

"Go, go, go." The old lady was naturally happy to cultivate feelings between her brothers and sisters, and waved her hand with a smile.

So the nine children of the Suiping Marquis Mansion all went out to welcome Xu Xi.

Out of the hall, Zhao Rurui, who deliberately slowed down, whispered to Zhao Ruyu: "Sister, it's okay." Didn't the old lady leave you to eat last night? The old lady asked us to meet her, but it was just an orderly brother and sister. Don't think about it. ”

Zhao Ruyu's eyebrows furrowed again, and he said lightly to Zhao Rurui: "I didn't think much about it. As he spoke, he withdrew Zhao Rurui's hand, took two quick steps, and caught up with Zhao Ruxin.

Zhao Rurui's smile suddenly froze on her face.

In the past, even if Zhao Ruyu was a concubine, she was kind and kind, and she never looked down on her as a concubine because of her identity; And because of Wei's harsh treatment, the two have the same illness, so the relationship between the sisters has always been very good.

But I don't know what's going on, a few days ago, Zhao Ruyu became very cold to her.

Did she do something wrong?

Zhao Rurui was at a loss.

The group went down the steps, and as soon as they arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, they met Zhu and Xu Xi coming in. Zhu gave a brief introduction to the two sides, and led Xu Xi straight to the main hall.

"Mother, I've brought Miss Xi back." As soon as Zhu entered the door, he patted Xu Xi and smiled at Mrs. Hou.

She turned her head to look at Xu Xi: "Sister Xi, this is grandmother." ”

A maid had already put the brocade mat up, Xu Xi sighed, succumbed to this feudal etiquette, and kowtowed to the old lady.

Zhu was afraid that she would not know the etiquette and make a fool of herself when they met, so that everyone in the house would see the jokes, so she was reminded in the carriage that she would kowtow to the old lady when she entered the door, and as for the others, they could just give blessings.

The old lady stepped forward in person and helped Xu Xi up: "Good boy, it's good to come back, it's good to come back." I don't know if she was really excited or playful, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

So everyone else in the room pretended to wipe away tears.

Xu Xi: "......" Then does she want to cry too? But what if she can't squeeze out tears?

Fortunately, the old lady didn't sensationalize too much, raised her hand to the side, motioned to the maid to open the brocade box she was holding in her hand, and smiled at Xu Xi: "This is a gift from grandmother to you." ”

Xu Xi glanced at the box and saw that inside was a set of gold and jade-inlaid heads. Not to mention the gold, the jade on it is crystal clear, and the texture is better than the hosta that Zhu put on her head. There are more than a dozen kinds of heads and faces in the whole set, which is obviously worth a lot of money.

It can be seen that the Suiping Marquis Mansion was rich and noble before. Even if it doesn't work now, you can still come up with such a good thing.

When the other people in the room saw this sleeve, their faces changed, and their eyes at Xu Xi became more and more complicated.

The good things of the Suiping Marquis Mansion should be sold, sold, and the good things were given out one by one. Everyone knows that even the old lady and the eldest lady don't have many good things in their hands.

But the old lady was willing to give such a good thing to Xu Xi, which shows how much she values this newly picked up granddaughter.

It's just that......

Their gazes swept back and forth over the faces of the eldest lady and the second lady.

Even if Xu Xi is out of exile and has suffered a lot, he is a person in the second room. The second master is a concubine, and he has no blood relationship with the old lady, so he will be separated in the future. Such a good thing should have been left to the big house. Now that it has been given to Xu Xi, won't the eldest lady have an opinion?
