Chapter 234: Envy
Jiang Yunxi saw it in her eyes, revealing a hint of envy, "Cousin-in-law, I really envy you." She curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a maturity and calmness that was different from just now, "My cousin has been a very bad-tempered person since he was a child, you may only hear him say that I played tricks on him, but in fact, he didn't toss me less." Every time I came to my uncle's house, I was a little scared of him, and I was really angry with him when I teased him. ”
Lin Yingyue smiled slightly, it was not good to comment.
Jiang Yunxi seemed to find that it was inappropriate to sigh with the other party, and quickly put away her emotions. She regained her innocent appearance and smiled at Lin Yingyue, "Really, I really envy you!" Cousin, his concern and thoughtfulness for you, as long as you are not blind, can see it, it is simply sweet. ”
Lin Yingyue looked at the beautiful and delicate girl in front of her.
Although her words were half-true, the envious expression was true. To tell the truth, it is not like becoming an opponent with such a difficult girl, so he said: "Cousin Yunxi, you have a good background, and you have a high-ranking and powerful uncle like Zhennanhou, as well as your mother who loves you, you will definitely find a better family in the future." ”
Jiang Yunxi smiled and didn't say much, but said, "Then thank you cousin-in-law Jiyan." She didn't continue the topic, but said, "Let's go, I'll go see the triplets first, I've wanted to see them for a long time." ”
Lin Yingyue led her to the backyard.
Jiang Yunxi saw the triplets for the first time, and her eyes were full of surprise, "I can't believe it!" The three children are exactly the same, they are all like dough, Yuxue is lovely, it is really attractive. ”
Lin Yingyue smiled, "It's just three little naughty." ”
Jiang Yunxi smiled and praised: "This is the blessing of my cousin-in-law, others can't ask for it." As he spoke, he beckoned to the girl, "Bring me the gift I prepared." ”
Lin Yingyue beckoned her to sit down on the beauty couch and let the girl have tea.
Jiang Yunxi said with a smile: "I brought a little gift to Brother Xi'er, Sister Yu'er, and the triplets. She said this, but there were indeed eight gifts in the tray, "By the way, these two are for my cousin's younger siblings, and this one is for Mrs. Lin." ”
is very careful, and even the Li family, Tianci, and Jinyue have not been left behind.
Lin Yingyue couldn't help but praise in her heart, she is really good at being a person. So he smiled: "Yunxi, you are really careful, so well prepared, hey...... you really broke the bank." ”
Jiang Yunxi smiled very gently, and said politely: "It's all worthless little things." ”
"You can't say that." Lin Yingyue said angrily: "Things are not valuable, but rare Cousin Yunxi's heart, which makes me grateful in my heart." Let the girl put away the things, and said, "My mother is sick and can't come out to speak for the time being." As for Brother Xi'er, they are all playing in the back yard, and they will go out to see it later. ”
Jiang Yunxi has no interest in children.
Besides, when I saw that the room was full of Lin Yingyue's children, I would only think that Mrs. Shizi was not good, so why bother? So he smiled slightly, "Hengzhu and my mother are going to live for a few days, and there are many times when we meet, so I don't worry, so as not to disturb the children's fun." ”
Lin Yingyue naturally didn't insist, but let the girl take out two boxes and hand them to Jiang Yunxi, "This is what I prepared with the prince." The two jade pillows, one large and one small, are both high-grade Hetian jade. I heard that it is selected from the same base material and made into small jade seeds, which have the effect of calming the nerves and nourishing sleep when sleeping. ”
At the beginning, I thought a lot about giving gifts.
Her needlework is average, and she may not be able to get into the eyes of Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Yunxi, and besides, she also seems stingy, maybe she will throw it away when she turns around. But it's not appropriate to send jewelry, in case Jiang Yunxi wears it on his head to swagger, wouldn't it be okay to arrange something wrong? So, it's not bad to think about the jade pillow.
Not only can't I take it out, but also one big and one small, and Mrs. Jiang's is a pillow.
Jiang Yunxi stroked the jade seed pillow a few times, and praised: "It's so cool, and it's warm after a while, it's really a good thing, and my mother will be happy when she sees it." ”
Lin Yingyue smiled lightly: "Mrs. Jiang, what good things haven't you seen?" It's just a little bit of my heart and that of the prince. ”
Jiang Yunxi listened to her sentence "Me and the prince", and felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Lin Yingyue is a very discerning person, and besides, she has a good intention when she says this. Soon, she was keenly aware of Jiang Yunxi's discomfort, and she had a ,---- in her heart, it seemed that even if Jiang Yunxi didn't care about Huo Yan, Mrs. Jiang also wanted her daughter to be the wife of the prince.
Otherwise, Jiang Yunxi would not be so uncomfortable.
But he didn't show it at all, but said with a smile: "Speaking of which, when the prince received a letter from his aunt, he originally said that he would pick up his aunt in person. Unfortunately, my mother fell from the second floor while watching the play and broke her legs. The prince was a little hesitant, whether to stay and take care of my mother, I said, just take care of me, or let him pick up my aunt. ”
Jiang Yunxi didn't expect her to explain this matter to her face, not only could she not say that she had an opinion in her heart, but she also had to defend herself, "My mother heard that Mrs. Lin fell, and she was also very worried, and she was saying that my cousin should stay at home to take care of it." Otherwise, my uncle is old, and my cousin takes care of seven children alone, where can I tell the difference? It's better for my cousin to stay at home. ”
"Yunxi, you are really considerate." Although Lin Yingyue knew that the other party was not sincere, Mrs. Jiang would definitely not feel sorry for her mother-in-law, the Li family, but Jiang Yunxi spoke well and was also capable. So he followed the conversation and said with a smile: "At that time, the prince was in a dilemma, and it happened that the cousin of the Bai family was going to Jiangnan, so I asked him." ”
Jiang Yunxi nodded and said, "Cousin Yizhi is a very proper person who takes good care of me and my mother. As he spoke, he hid his face and laughed, "Take advantage of my cousin's absence, and secretly say a few bad things about him." If he had come to pick us up, with his Hu Tianhai temperament, he would definitely not have been as good as Cousin Yizhi. ”
When Lin Yingyue heard this, she also laughed.
For a while, there was a bit of a harmonious atmosphere of talking.
Both of them are well-thought-out people, and despite their potential hostility, they can still have a good conversation with the guests and the host, and make the atmosphere not embarrassing at all, but harmonious. In the end, both sides found that their opponents should not be underestimated, and they couldn't help but smile at each other, quite tacitly.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yunxi got up with a gift to say goodbye.
When I went back to see Mrs. Jiang, I closed the door, the smile on my face faded, I shook my head and frowned, and said, "Mother, the Lin family is very difficult to deal with, and he is a smart person." It's not the kind of woman we imagined who was small and couldn't get on the stage. If she hadn't known that she was a merchant girl, she wouldn't have been able to see it at all. ”
Mrs. Jiang was a little surprised, but she was not convinced, and snorted: "It's just that I have been a housewife and grandmother in the Houfu for a few years, and I have learned some skins." ”
Jiang Yunxi saw that her mother was too stubborn and couldn't resist, so she could only turn to the key points and said, "Then the Lin family gave birth to four sons, there is nothing to identify, right?" Mother, even if I can win and become the wife of the prince, the child doesn't know where it is. is pregnant and gives birth to a child, who can guarantee that it must be a son? Take 10,000 steps back and say, it's a son, and that's a few years younger than Lin's son. ”
Mrs. Jiang was speechless for a moment.
"And." Jiang Yunxi's eyes were half envious, half sighing, "It can be seen that my cousin really loves the Lin family, and that kind of care from the inside out can't be faked." She raised her eyes to look at her mother, "Mother, do you know? Just now I went out with my cousin and Lin, but my cousin ignored me at all, and went to the study under the pretext that Lin was uncomfortable. ”
"Huh?" Mrs. Jiang was really shocked, and said in surprise: "Then to put it this way, you and Brother Yan haven't talked at all for most of the afternoon, and have been chattering with the Lin family." ”
Jiang Yunxi frowned and said, "How can you call it nonsense?" Am I going to be idle and talk nonsense? I chatted with Lin all afternoon, and no matter what I said, she was able to pick up the topic without timidity, so I felt that it was not possible. ”
"No way!" Mrs. Jiang first categorically rejected this idea, and then said, "Even if the Lin family is a little beautiful and a little smart, they can coax Brother Yan'er's heart. But flowers are not red for 100 days, people are not good for 100 days, how can she be favored for a lifetime? Your identity is more noble than the Lin family, and you are a few years younger than her, so Brother Yan will naturally find out your benefits. ”
Jiang Yunxi pursed her lips and was silent.
Mrs. Jiang said again: "Our Jiang family is completely ruined, even if you follow your uncle's power, what great good relatives can you find?" No matter how good it is, it can't be better than the wife of the prince of the Zhennan Hou Mansion, the future Mrs. Zhennan Hou! ”
Jiang Yunxi sighed, "Since it's so good, why didn't my mother set up a relationship between me and the Huo family earlier?" It's not like this torture now, and I have to share my husband with other women. ”
"In the early years, the eldest lady was here, and I was not in Yongzhou, where could I get involved? She naturally wanted to insert her niece Su Xinwan into it. Mrs. Jiang hooked the corners of her mouth, revealing a sneering smile, "It's a pity that heaven is not as good as people!" Brother Yan'er's mother died unclear back then, and Brother Yan naturally refused to give up, and sure enough, it was still ......"
"Mother." Jiang Yunxi interrupted her, "Even if you are the daughter of the Huo family, don't talk about these selfishness." The eldest lady is dead, what do you say she has done? If it gets out, wouldn't it just happen to ask the Lin family to send us to break our mouths? When my cousin heard this, he would definitely not be happy in his heart. ”
Mrs. Jiang pursed her lips, "Anyway, there is no one in the house." ”
Jiang Yunxi didn't talk much about her mother, so she changed the topic and said: "The Lin family's side is a hard bone that is not easy to gnaw, not to mention that she has four sons and a daughter, which is really embarrassing." As for Su Xinwan's side, it's easy to do, find an opportunity for my cousin to take Su Xinwan off. Perhaps, even without us having to do it, the Lin family will be happy to see it push the boat. ”#####
