Chapter 168: The Cat Teases the Mouse
Su Jiujiu saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, so he smiled and relieved the siege: "Grandmother, such a beautiful screen really fits your temperament." ”
The old lady sighed and said seriously: "It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift." The soldiers on the front lines are still risking their lives to defend our country, and I can't help but feel uneasy with these extravagant things. ”
The words are good, Su Qingqing thought in her heart, since you can't bear to use it, then return it to us, what about such a good thing. Su Qingqing was a little congested, but she didn't dare to say it, so she had to muttered in her heart.
The old lady glanced at the screen a few more times, patted Su Jiujiu's arm, and said, "Let Mama Song put these things away and send them to the warehouse, I'll clear some here, if the war in front is tight, these things can also be sold at a good price to support the soldiers at the front." ”
"What are you doing with it?"
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, a clear voice reached the ears of the people in the main hall.
Su Nianyi was dressed in a simple blue blouse, with a thin light green gauze skirt, and a few delicate bamboo leaves were simply embroidered with silver thread at the bottom of the skirt.
The old lady looked at these little girls in the capital, most of them love to wear red and green when they are young, and they are dressed colorfully, especially these young ladies from aristocratic families, who are desperately trying to dress up beautifully, and the jewels and treasures on their heads jingle and are beautiful.
Even his family, which has always been known for its frugality, Su Qingqing also has a lot of pearls on his head.
It's good-looking, but it's just that I've seen a lot, and everyone is the same, and the first thing I see is not this person, but the silk and satin on the body and the jewelry on the head.
Nothing new.
Suddenly, I saw Su Nianyi dressed like this, just like a hibiscus out of the water, but she could also dominate the crowd without powder, which was a novelty.
She was followed by a girl with a slightly round figure, this girl looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, round and white, and her face was kind, which made people happy at the sight.
She was wearing a pink Luo skirt, and she didn't feel very convenient, so she folded her sleeves a few times, and walked over with a big grin, and after seeing the old lady Su in the house, she was not as scared as Su Qingqing, and shouted sweetly: "Grandmother, why did you arrive so quickly." ”
When Mrs. Su saw this girl, she looked up and down, and finally she was not wearing men's clothes, and there was a helpless smile in her eyes: "You girl, don't you dislike us for going slow and want to go first?" Why are we saying we're here now? ”
The little girl made no secret of the old lady's affection for her, and walked over coquettishly, her eyes blinking, and her flickering eyelashes looked very innocent: "Grandmother, why do you always make fun of me, I am curious!" Curious~"
The voice is long, sweet and a little silly.
The old lady was obviously very familiar with this girl's routine, but she was still very useful, and patted her head with a smile, and said, "When did you come?"
"I arrived two days ago and have been staying with my little sister. Grandmother, why don't we stay a little longer this time, and when Sister Jiu's family is decided, let's stay a little longer, okay? ”
The old lady knew what she meant, but deliberately misinterpreted: "What, when your sister wine talks about her family, you also want to see the young talents in the imperial capital and choose a son-in-law?" ”
If it were other women, hearing such ridicule, they might have blushed and fled with their faces red, but Su Linyue was different from others: "Although I don't mean what my grandmother said, if I choose a son-in-law, it will be just right, and I will marry Sister Jiu at that time, and it will be lively." ”
The more the two of them talked, the happier they became, obviously forgetting that there were other people, Su Nianyi and Su Jiujiu felt that it was nothing, and they lived in peace, watching the family fun of their grandparents and grandchildren. But Su Qingqing couldn't accept that she was ignored, she had been the focus of everyone's eyes for so long, and she had never been ignored. Seeing that the old lady was only concerned about talking to Su Linyue and completely leaving herself aside, Su Qingqing was very dissatisfied in her heart.
She saw Su Nianyi standing quietly at the door, smiling, and didn't seem to have any displeasure that had been ignored, so her mind turned and she remembered it. Her voice was slightly raised, not so loud that she lost her grace, and she could also be heard clearly by everyone present: "Su Nianyi, you just came to see your grandmother, you don't have any gifts, and you still stop your grandmother's order, what are your intentions?" ”
Su Nianyi was smiling and watching her second sister and grandmother making trouble, who knew that Su Qingqing suddenly wanted to make trouble by herself, and seeing that everyone's eyes fell on her, she looked at Su Qingqing very calmly and did not say a word.
Su Qingqing saw Su Nianyi suddenly looking at her, I don't know why, I haven't seen her for a few days, Su Nianyi's eyes are a lot deeper, and there seem to be more things hidden in them, and her legs are even a little weak for some reason when she looks at her eyes.
Grandmother hasn't challenged herself yet, Su Qingqing has come out first, Su Nianyi smiled coldly in her heart, it is true, she has been punished and confined for so long, and she has not grown at all.
Old Lady Su also obviously wanted to know why, and also wanted to see what surprises her granddaughter could bring to her after not seeing her for a few years, so she asked, "Ah Yi, I also want to know, why did you stop my order?" ”
Although she hasn't seen Su Nianyi all year round, Su Nianyi is still very filial and writes every month to tell her what happened here, although Su Nianyi is very cowardly in her memory, but her filial piety is also unquestionable. Mrs. Su also likes Su Nianyi very much, but just now Su Nianyi stopped her as soon as she came in, which was completely different from the way she looked before she left, and she was obviously a lot tougher.
She is also very curious about the current Su Nianyi, after her mother died, what progress has been made by the little girl who has been following the murderer and recognizing the thief as her mother.
Su Nianyi's face was still flat, but there was more respect in her eyes, she took two steps forward and said, "Back to grandmother, the reason why you put away this screen just now is because it is too extravagant and a waste of national resources, right?" ”
The words were extremely tactful, and the old lady's words were briefly repeated, and the old lady's eyes had a hint of interest: "Exactly." ”
"Grandmother is reluctant to use such a valuable thing, and she wants to donate it to the country for military salary, you are good, what, do you encourage your grandmother to live in luxury?" Su Qingqing hit the snake with the stick and bit it hard.
Su Linyue frowned, a little unhappy: "Su Qingqing, what is the matter with your grandmother's question, don't interject." ”
