Chapter 129: Into the City
When Miss Wei Si appeared in front of people, she was gentle and dignified.
When the acquaintance saw her, she greeted with a smile: "Fourth Sister Wei." ”
Miss Wei Si responded with her head bowed, but she sneered in her heart. In the past, they had already come up to stammer, and now even if they say hello, this is to determine that she will not be a princess?
With that in mind, her gaze fell on the place where the crowd had gathered.
Surrounded by all the young ladies and laughing, it was a girl in green, with a pink face and peach cheeks, outstanding beauty, probably not suitable for such attention, her face was slightly red, but it brought out a little shyness, which was more moving.
The Zhou family has always been beautiful, and this Miss Zhou's appearance is already the top among all the nobles. However, the old people said that her aunt was called stunning, if it wasn't for the poor health of the King of Dongjiang back then, he paid more attention to the heirs, and it was not certain who would be the princess now.
The two young ladies of the Xu family are said to be better than their mothers. The prince's body is not weak, and the power of the Xu family has risen sharply, so why not choose Miss Xu?
These thoughts not only rolled in Miss Wei Si's heart, but others also thought the same, so they became more enthusiastic about Miss Zhou.
Miss Zhou knew why this enthusiasm came from, and when others asked about the Xu family, she picked it up and answered.
"When I was a child, my aunt came back to save her relatives, but I saw my cousin, but after so many years, I can't remember clearly......"
"Every year, I will give a gift to the courtesy, and I heard my aunt's dowry grandmother say that my cousin is very intelligent, literate at the age of three, and learn literature at the age of six. She doesn't like to be in the limelight and never talks about it. ”
"My aunt went early, my cousin took care of the affairs of the house very early, and my mother always said that I was childish about this."
"I sent a letter before, but I was not frightened, and those bandits did not stand up to the problem, and they were all beaten away."
"I've already left, presumably it will be ...... in the next two days"
Hearing these words, Miss Wei Si sneered in her heart. Literate at the age of three, learn literature at the age of six, and don't like to be in the limelight, does this mean that she loves to show off?
took care of the affairs of the house very early, that is, he could fully bear the responsibility of the housewife, and in comparison, he dared to say that he was capable of doing something under the care of his mother.
Not only that, but when encountering bandits, they can also fight back in an orderly manner.
After saying this one by one, Miss Xu turned out to be a perfect person, much stronger than her, the "Pearl of the Dongjiang River".
The others, of course, didn't believe it entirely, and as they were talking, news came in from outside.
"It's back! The prince is back! ”
Miss Wei Si stood up suddenly, almost forgetting to hide her emotions.
Fortunately, everyone was equally excited, looked at the person who reported the news, and asked nonsense.
"Has the prince entered the city?"
"Miss Xu has also arrived?"
"Have you seen Miss Xu? Is it the same as rumored? ”
The people who reported the news replied one by one: "I just entered the city!" It's with the Xu family team. Miss Xu is in the car, where can I see it. ”
The crowd couldn't sit still anymore and took their leave.
The first one was Miss Zhou, who said that she was going to pick up her cousin and hurried home.
The others listened to what they had just said and couldn't help but want to go and see the excitement.
It's boring, what's there to see. Miss Wei Si snorted coldly in her heart, thinking, how can you say that they all represent the Jiangdu family, wouldn't it be self-surrendering to see Miss Xu so impatiently?
She ignored them, went out of the banquet, and took the car home.
Halfway through the carriage, Miss Wei Si suddenly said, "Wait." ”
The coachman grabbed the reins: "Fourth Miss? ”
There was silence in the carriage for a while, and a voice was heard: "Go to the city gate." ”
The coachman agreed, turned the wheel, and hurried to the city gate.
The closer you get to the city gates, the more lively it becomes.
The maid Lilac lifted a small piece of car curtains, saw the situation outside, and said, "There are so many people!" Could it be that they are all here to see the excitement? A Miss Xu, what's so good-looking? ”
Miss Wei Si was upset and told the coachman to find an inconspicuous place to stop.
At the same time, Xu Yin also opened a little curtain and looked outside.
"Wow! A lot of people. Do Dongjiang people love to watch the excitement so much? ”
Xu Si said with a smile: "The Li family has been operating here for a hundred years, and the people of Dongjiang only know that there is a king but not a majesty, and their feelings for the prince are not ordinary. Do you think, if this is in the capital, will the prince come out to see the excitement when he travels? ”
Absolutely! What a rare opportunity to see the crown prince.
Xu Yin sighed: "So, we are waiting here to be watched?" ”
Xu Si nodded: "I'm afraid so." ”
The convoy is not leaving for the time being, it is not that there is a problem with Li Wen's side, but that the grandfather Zhou family is coming to pick it up.
They are not familiar with the place in Dongjiang, and the care of the Zhou family is indispensable, so of course they have to give this face.
The Zhou family didn't let them wait long, and soon Zhou Xuan, the eldest son of Zhou, came.
He saluted Li Wen and came over to meet the Xu family brothers and sisters.
"Cousin Xu, thank you for taking care of your two cousins all the way." He politely thanked Xu Zeshi.
Xu Ze hurriedly returned the salute and said, "My own sister, I should do it." ”
Zhou Xuan smiled and spoke to the two cousins through the curtain: "The two cousins have worked hard all the way, and my grandmother is very happy to know that you are coming, so she specially asked someone to clean up the best yard and let the two cousins live!" No, as soon as I heard that my cousin had arrived, she immediately asked me to pick me up. ”
Xu Si's voice came from the car: "Thank you eldest cousin, we also miss our grandmother, and we can't wait to see her old man immediately." It's just that this trip is not for visiting relatives after all, and if you live in the past now, I'm afraid it will be a little inconvenient. A cousin went back to tell my grandmother that we would stay in the post house for the time being, and when we settled down, we went to see him. ”
Zhou Xuan was stunned and said, "The yard at home has been cleaned up, where is the need to live in a post house?" Moreover, the post house is not as comfortable as at home, and the two cousins are delicate, so I am afraid that they will not be happy to live. ”
There was a chuckle from the car, and this time it was Xu Yin who answered him: "Big cousin, I'll tell you the truth." My sister is here on a blind date, and the other party is still the prince of Dongjiang. If you live in the past, I'm afraid you will bring trouble with you. I know that my grandmother is compassionate, but because of this, I can't take her old man with me, don't you say? ”
Zhou Xuan was stunned by these words. This sounds like the two cousins will be very dangerous when they come to Jiang this time?
"Big cousin, let's go back for the time being, we'll talk about it later when we meet."
Probably because he stayed for a long time, Li Wen also came to catch people away.
"Master Zhou, I personally asked someone to clean up the post house, and I will not wronged the two young ladies, so you can rest assured?"
In the end, the other party is the master, Zhou Xuan can't refute it again, so he has to give a salute: "Yes, then there is Lao Shizi." ”
The Zhou family retreated, and the convoy continued to move forward.
The onlookers felt strange and got together to talk to each other.
"Why doesn't Miss Xu go to her grandfather's house? There are no other elders in the same class, so it's too strange to live in another place, right? ”
"It's not surprising that Mrs. Xu has been dead for more than ten years, and the relationship between the two families must have faded."
"Even so, it would be too faceless to refuse in public."
"Yes! It's rude. ”
"Before I came, I praised it like a flower, it was like this! It's better to meet than to be famous......"
Hearing these words, Miss Wei Si laughed contemptuously and instructed the coachman, "Go back." ”
