Chapter 13: Xie Mingyue
There was no one all the way, and when she saw such a big battle, she was a little stunned, and subconsciously looked at her own girl, but the latter was very calm and calm, and only maintained a normal pace.
Peony also settled down for a while, and only then did she have the heart to observe the group of people in front of her.
A large group of grandmothers and maids, but the leader was a young girl.
looked three or four years younger than his own girl, about fourteen or fifteen, delicate, and looked at them with a smile, very angry.
But when she looked at Xie Mingjin, she was stunned, and then her face was ugly.
Peony knew that she was not a smart person, but she was a woman, and she immediately realized where this young lady's displeasure came fromβher own girl's appearance.
However, the other party quickly turned this displeasure into hostile ridicule, "Xie Mingjin, you can be regarded as coming back from the countryside, it's not easy." β
She spoke proudly, looking at people with her chin raised, as if she had suffered in one area, and she had to find an advantage in the other.
Xie Mingjin didn't speak, but looked at this girl with a good look, his eyes were not malicious, nor annoyed, only serious and meticulous, with a little imperceptible gentleness.
Miss Jiao felt that this gaze was extremely terrifying, and her crossed hand couldn't help but withdraw, touched her arm, and felt that it was not imposing, so she immediately pointed to the brazier on the ground and said: "You are very unlucky to be banished by your father to the countryside, I can prepare a brazier for you." β
Ignoring the humiliation in the other party's words, Peony looked at the brazier and almost rolled up her sleeves to fight with the other party.
Is this a cross brazier? It's so big that you can roast a pig!
Peony had anger in her heart, but she didn't come out strongly, the rules were there, and she only stood behind Ming Jin with a stiff face.
As for Ming Jin, he glanced at the brazier, and then looked at Miss Jiao, with a smile on his face, "The third sister has been thinking about me so much all these years, I haven't arrived yet, so she prepared a brazier for me first." β
Xie Mingyue always felt strange when she heard this, mainly because the gentle but steady "third sister" of the other party made her very uncomfortable.
When the diaphragm arrived, goosebumps never went down.
Before she could say anything, she saw Xie Mingjin continue to ask, "Are there chestnuts in the kitchen?" β
Who did she ask? Those grandmothers and maids subconsciously wanted to respond, but they came back to their senses - the other party was not their little master.
Their little master was glaring at them angrily, as if she would kill them if they dared to respond, so they looked at each other and did not dare to answer.
"It seems that no, it turns out that there are not even chestnuts in the city, and the third sister has worked hard all these years."
"Who said that! Absolutely! You think it's your country place. Xie Mingyue retorted as soon as her mouth was bald.
"Then do you want to eat?" Xie Ming asked her.
Xie Mingyue suddenly sneered, and said slowly: "Do you really think I'm a glutton, so easy to be fooled by you, let me tell you, I'm not..."
"Add honey."
β......β
ββββββββ
In the old courtyard of the ancestral house, the big banyan tree is rooted in the top of the plate, reflecting the lushness, and in the yard, many grandmothers are in good order, and the young maids are cautious in their words and deeds, for fear of being caught in the wrong place and being sent down.
At that time, Mrs. Xie, who was carefully served and even the beads on her hair were wiped shiny, was listening to a grandmother report the exploration results.
"You mean, she went straight to Yunqian Tower?"
"Yes, old lady."
"Sure enough, there are no rules as always, and then what?"
Mama hesitated, but still stubbornly said, "I asked the kitchen for chestnuts and honey." β
"Huh?"
"They're frying chestnuts."
The old lady was stunned, her eyes were deep, "What did you say?" Mingyue, what about the girl? β
"Eat together."
The old lady's face was gloomy, and after half a sound, she spit out a sentence meanly, "Sure enough, it's a thing that can't be put on the table." β
Although she is the daughter of her sister-in-law, she was born to a concubine, so she can only be a concubine.
Counting it up, there are only two real descendants of the entire Xie family.
One is the sovereign, and the other is the sovereign's eldest daughter, Xie Mingjin.
It is the lineage and the foundation of the family.
Can.... The old lady didn't like it.
Even if it was the first child born to her sister-in-law, she didn't like it.
Not to mention just a daughter.
"Go, call her to me."
ββββββ
In the empty courtyard of Yunqian Building, a pot was set up on top of the brazier, chestnuts were fried in the pot, and sweet honey was added on the side, and the aroma escaped.
In fact, chestnuts and honey are not precious things, it stands to reason that Xie Mingyue will not be so greedy, and Peony is still wondering, secretly wondering if this is a gluttonous snack?
"Food is not precious, but as a girl's family, it is not allowed to eat under the rules of grandmother."
Ming Jin, who didn't guard the sugar-fried chestnuts, looked in front of the flower garden on the other side of the courtyard, and saw Peony asking, his face showed a slight subtlety, "My grandmother used to ask others to always follow the rules, and I should have respected her for this." β
Peony was curious, "Because she likes to hurt you?" β
"Nope." Ming Jin smiled, "It's because I hate that she often asks for others, but she doesn't abide by it.... And I always feel that I am the biggest rule. β
In the capital, she had seen with her own eyes how her grandmother demanded meticulousness in everything and was often overly extravagant.
But whatever she wants to eat, what she wants, a bunch of people will do it for her.
There was a past - a Buddhist scripture for the Buddha's birthday ceremony for the high monks, obtained from the temple by all means for the local guard, and was sent to the capital quickly, and gave it to her grandmother in person, and then her grandmother was really happy, and specially used the Xie family relationship to find a higher level of official road for the latter, regardless of the latter's local people for many years.
At that time, even if he didn't know that the other party had the intention to kill him, if he didn't like the other party, the matter increased to ten points.
In the capital and her father looked at her coldly, the former still had restraint, and now that he has returned to the county for many years, the third uncle has been suppressed by the former again, and he is afraid that he will put on more and more old pomp.
From a distance, I looked at Xie Mingyue, who was sitting on the bench like a little hamster and drooling in the cauldron, and sighed lightly when he saw the flowers blooming in front of him.
As expected, grandmother.
ββββββ
"I'm calling you."
Xie Mingyue was sitting on a small stool waiting for the sugar-fried chestnuts to come out, and when she saw someone from the old house summoning her, she smiled with bad intentions, "You're done..."
Ming Jin swept his eyebrows, glanced at her, and said lightly: "When I come back, bring in your clothes and makeup." β
Xie Mingyue was stunned for a moment, she didn't understand what she meant, and she hated the other party's order to herself, and she was about to reply.
"In such a building, no one dares to live in it if I am not there?"
But seeing that Ming was understated, he was extremely heavy and dignified, and a look in his eyes made the flowers of the courtyard dare not dazzle.
Everyone palpitated for a while, and they didn't expect that this young girl, who had not returned for many years, could say the deafening effect in such a gentle and calm tone.
Yes, Rao is peony, she just came here to see Xie Mingyue and the others, and she only thought that this building was where Xie Mingyue lived, but she didn't want to be not.
Not only not, but after so many years, Xie Mingyue, who is half-brother and Xie Yuan's daughter, has not been able to live in, and others have not been able to live in it.
The reason behind the in-depth investigation, I am afraid that few people in the entire Xie family understand, and if they do, they will not say it.
But no one expected Xie Mingjin to take the initiative to say it himself, he was neither surprised nor happy, he only had a very ordinary attitude - she really felt a pity.
"My building is not bad, it's a waste."
When she was young, she was sharp, although she was not ostentatious, but she was picky, and this building was really customized by her own joy.
I didn't expect it.... It's been years.
Xie Mingjin was stunned for a moment.
And Xie Mingyue's face turned red, neither admitting that she didn't dare to live, nor arguing that no one let her live, so she could only stand up from the pony in anger and angrily wanted to attack Xie Mingjin.
However, before the words could be spoken, Xie Mingjin had already walked to the entrance, glanced back, and said lightly, "And your rules are really bad, you have to teach them well." β
Then he left.
After she left, Xie Mingyue of the club was so angry that she picked up a raw chestnut and threw it at the place where Xie Mingjin was standing just now.
The maids took a look, oh, it's too far away.
"I'm! Who has no rules! It's clear that she wants to eat chestnuts, blame me?! β
Mama couldn't help reminding and whispered, "What the girl said should be your sitting posture, girl." β
Just now, the little horse was squatting, and she was looking at it and had the heart to mention it, but her own girl was a wooden man, and she was stunned to let her eyes twitch.
Xie Mingyue: "She gave me this stool!" She must have done it on purpose!"
It's a sitting position, not a stool....
Mama: "And your words, girl..."
Xie Mingyue: "Normally, where do I get angry and scold people, unless I treat her!"
Mama said that she couldn't do it, so she could only clasp her hands together, and said with stubbornness: "That means you have eaten too much." β
Xie Mingyue, who had just finished throwing raw chestnuts and was grabbing ripe chestnuts to eat: "...."
There was unspeakable embarrassment in the yard.
After a while, Xie Mingyue's personal maid had the courage to ask, "Girl, that... So will you move? β
Xie Mingyue reacted and snorted lightly: "No!" She can't protect herself, just look at it, and grandmother will definitely clean her up. β
"So, what if you don't?" How else to say that it is a personal maid, the ability of this bar essence is the same, Xie Mingyue's expression froze.
Grandmother's terrible figure .... Can Xie Mingjin handle it?
I'm afraid I'm going to be skinned.
ββββββ
The old courtyard looks gorgeous, the details are exquisite, and the background of the elaborate decoration can be applied, but the peony still doesn't like it very much, how to say it, this well-designed feeling is too thick and heavy, and it makes people breathless.
The houses are like this, how are the people?
It was not a strange face who received Ming Jin, but Mama Zhang who had seen her in Beizhuang before.
Mama Zhang had a cold face, glanced at the peony that was shaking at her behind Xie Mingjin, and said lightly: "I didn't expect that after a few days, the girl still came back." β
Ming Jin smiled lightly and said something obscure to Mama Zhang's eyes.
"Father's order is hard to disobey."
Mama Zhang didn't smile, "The old lady is taking a nap, Miss Jin has to wait outside?" β
Here it is, and sure enough.
Peony thought to herself.
