Chapter 61: Xu Mingrui came to the door
"Please old lady Jun'an."
Although Mrs. Xie never waited to see Xu Ping'er again after the previous incident, Xu Ping'er still insisted on coming to Mrs. Xie every day to say goodbye, hoping to redeem her impression in Mrs. Xie's mind.
"Here, sit down." Mrs. Xie's expression was faint, and she was no longer kind to Xu Ping'er as before, and at the same time instructed Shen Huaiyue not to come to Cunci Hall every morning to ask for peace.
Just to cut Xu Ping'er's mind.
"Yes." Xu Ping'er sat obediently on the side, her face slightly happy: Compared with the past when she was driven away after asking for peace, the old lady seems to be much kinder to herself today.
It seems that his insistence is indeed right.
It's just that Xu Ping'er didn't have time to be happy, so she saw Fu Shi bring Xie Jin to ask for peace. And the people who followed them were the people Xu Ping'er didn't want to see the most.
Xu Mingrui!
Mrs. Xie was not surprised, and the Xu family came to visit. They are all sisters in the family, because Xu Mingrui came, she left Xu Ping'er to sit down.
"Mingrui greets Taijun." Xu Mingrui saluted after Fu Shi and Xie Jin, and said sweetly: "Taijun, you are so young, if you hadn't followed Mrs. Xie and Miss Xie to meet you, Mingrui would have almost thought that you were as old as my aunt." ”
Sycophant, Xu Ping'er silently rolled her eyes in her heart after listening to Xu Mingrui's words.
"Look, this girl has a really sweet mouth." Mrs. Xie listened very happily: "Quick, sit down quickly, I'll be here early in the morning, don't be tired." ”
There is no woman who doesn't like to be praised for her youth, especially an older woman.
As soon as Xu Mingrui came up, he caught Mrs. Xie's preference.
"Thank you, Taijun." After Xu Mingrui finished speaking, she picked up Xu Ping'er's nearest position and sat down: "Ping'er, you've been okay lately, but the sunset water scared me." ”
"With the prefectural doctor's care, I've gotten better." Xu Ping'er said with a cold face. After all, Xu Mingrui was the initiator of pushing her into the water, but now she is acting here.
"Then I'll rest assured, do you know that at home, grandmother and mother are very fond of you. Grandmother, in particular, is so focused on you that she has lost a lot of weight. ”
Xu Mingrui said according to Xie Jin's instructions, and she was sarcastic about Xu Ping'er not returning home.
Grandmother? The patriarchal old woman would remember herself, and she would have wished she had died outside. Xu Ping'er thought in her heart, but she didn't dare to come out.
"I'm fine, take me to ask how my grandmother and aunt are okay." Xu Ping'er forcibly dealt with Xu Mingrui.
"That's nature. I told my grandmother that Ping'er is the most filial. In Xie Mansion, he greets Taijun every day, no matter what the weather, there has never been a day of neglect. Xu Mingrui said.
It's just that these words fell on Old Taijun Xie's ears, but it was weird.
Even his own grandmother didn't want to see him, but he insisted on saying goodbye in front of him every day.
This made Mrs. Xie look at Xu Ping'er's daily persistence with playfulness.
"The Xu family has moved here and should greet the elders. Ping'er, you and Mingrui will go back today to meet Mrs. Xu. After that, every time you are closed, you don't have to come to Cunshantang to say goodbye, go home more to accompany your grandmother. Mrs. Xie said, her tone resolute and unquestionable.
"Yes!" Even if Xu Ping'er was unhappy in her heart, she could only respond.
"Why didn't you see the eldest aunt?" Xu Mingrui asked about Xu's mother's whereabouts.
"My mother's old illness has recurred in the past few days, and the old lady took pity on her, so she let her mother recuperate in her own house." Xu Ping'er said, only to feel that Xu Mingrui was becoming more and more dazzling, like a nasty fly, and just wanted to make her disappear in front of her eyes as soon as possible.
"Then I'll visit my aunt later." Xu Mingrui said.
"My mother is not feeling well, and it is inconvenient to see people." Xu Ping'er blocked.
"It'll be okay for a while, Ping'er, take me to your house for a walk."
Xu Ping'er: "......"
"Well, I'm tired too, and since you've all said goodbye, go back to each other. Ping'er, if you are familiar with Mingrui, take her to your courtyard to sit down. ”
Xu Ping'er: "......"
Xie Jin looked at Xu Ping'er's face as if he had eaten a fly, and he only felt refreshed in his heart.
Xu Mingrui's performance today is very satisfactory to Xie Jin.
With Xu Mingrui's character, when I saw Xu Ping'er's yard and furnishings, I was afraid that I would be even more jealous.
After returning home, he would repeatedly think about how to bring Xu Ping'er back to Xu's house day and night.
…………
Duckweed Temple
The small courtyard is quiet, elegantly furnished, and the girl's boudoir is quietly located among the flowers and plants, which makes the people who live here feel refreshed and happy.
The porcelain of the official kiln, the ornaments of the previous dynasty.
Fu's taste is elegant, and every courtyard in the Xie Mansion is carefully decorated by her, not to mention Xu Ping'er, who she used to treat as another daughter.
The curtain of the moon shadow veil, whether it is the scorching sun in summer or the cold wind in winter, will be cut off by this curtain, and the house is as warm as spring.
On the delicate and gorgeous dressing table, a bronze mirror is polished smooth and clear, which is the craftsmanship of the master at a glance.
And none of these are eye-catching with a makeup box in front of the bronze mirror, attracting Xu Mingrui's attention.
The box is made in the shape of a marquee, with a delicate candle lit in the center, and the slight green smoke makes the whole box rotate naturally, driving the jewelry placed in it.
At the same time, skilled craftsmen use gold leaf to skillfully reflect the light of the candles scattered on the head of each place, and the makeup box and jewelry shine together.
So beautiful!
Xu Mingrui's eyes have never been able to take their eyes off since they saw this makeup box. wanted to reach out and touch it, but was suddenly stopped by Xu Ping'er: "Don't move!" ”
Xu Ping'er blocked in front of the makeup box, this is her favorite baby, naturally she can't be snatched by Xu Mingrui like in Xu's mansion.
"I just want to touch it. It's stingy. Since there were no outsiders here, Xu Mingrui didn't bother to pretend in front of Xu Ping'er, and said mockingly.
"Just touching. This make-up box is a rare treasure, a treasure that the eldest prince Xie carefully found. I'm afraid you haven't seen it before you entered Beijing. Xu Ping'er is not to be outdone, she has endured Xu Mingrui for a long time.
"So what. This is Xie Fu, you are good at food and clothing, but you are just a poor worm under the fence. Xu Mingrui scoffed.
Looking at Xu Mingrui's ridicule, Xu Ping'er suddenly smiled: "You are jealous." Such a golden wire cage, you just want to enter, and no one wants you. ”
After Xu Ping'er finished speaking, she raised her hands and spun around proudly.
Finally, there is also a time when her Xu Mingrui's food and clothing are not as good as herself.
Looking at Xu Ping'er's proud appearance, Xu Mingrui only felt extremely dazzling.
With a "snap", the delicate make-up box was knocked to the ground, the candle flame was extinguished, and the candles that had not yet condensed were sprinkled on all heads, as if the beautiful girl had been coated with mud.
also made Xu Ping'er lose her mind, and a slap hit Xu Mingrui on the cheek.
