Chapter 8 Pingnanhou
As soon as Xie Li and the others' carriage left with their front feet, Xie Hui dismounted at the gate of Pingnanhou's Mansion.
Xie Hui casually threw the horsewhip in his hand to the porter at the door, and while striding inside, he asked urgently: "What's wrong with Qingqing, I heard that she fell from the rockery and fell into the mirror lake, what's the matter with the girl next to her?!" ”
Xie Hui was born tall and mighty, and in these years of fighting in the south and the north, there is always an indescribable majesty and evil aura on his body.
"The eldest lady is already well, and she has already gone to attend the birthday of the county lord of Anping with her wife." The head manager of the Xie family, who was one step behind, hurriedly replied, "A few days ago, the prince of King Chen went to his home to discuss painting with the second young master, and specially sent a post. ”
"What?" As soon as Manager Xie's words fell, Xie Hui let out a loud shout and suddenly stopped. Mr. Xie, who was walking behind, didn't check, and almost bumped into it with a slam.
"Qingqing went to the birthday of the county lord of Anping?" As if he was a ghost, Xie Hui stared at Manager Xie directly, "How could Qingqing go to the birthday banquet of the county lord of Anping?" ”
"Did someone force her to go?"
"Mother, for sure."
"Prepare the horse and go to King Chen's Mansion."
Without waiting for Manager Xie to say a word, Xie Hui turned around neatly and drove away again.
Manager Xie, who had saved up a stomach full of words, stood in place dumbfounded, and only held back a sentence for a while: "Master Hou, our eldest lady promised by herself, alas, ......"
A sigh contains countless sadness and helplessness.
It is said that the lord of his own family is the most upright husband, but the hero is sad about the beauty pass, and even more sad about the "daughter pass"......
Whenever he encounters something about the eldest lady, Hou Ye is like a stunned young man, like a father for the first time, he can't wait to hold all the treasures in the world in front of the eldest lady, even if it is a star in the sky, as long as the eldest lady gives an order, Hou Ye will try his best to pick it off.
Manager Xie thought about it, sighed again, and suddenly realized that he should send someone to talk to the old lady.
In the Furong Pavilion, Old Madam Lu's face was full of hatred, and she squinted at Manager Xie, who was also full of helplessness, and spit out a sentence for a long time: "Can't you stop it?" ”
Manager Xie couldn't cry or laugh, and knelt on the ground with a "poof", "Old lady, it's not that you don't stop it, it's really ...... It's ......."
I can't stop it.
Old Madam Lu raised her hand and pressed her sideburns, and let out a long breath before waving her hand.
After Mr. Xie came out of Furong Pavilion, Mrs. Lu said hatefully: "Master Hou is really, too indulgent girl." ”
Between the words, the meaning of hating iron is even heavier, "Since I was a child, I didn't fight or scold when I made mistakes, I didn't learn or talk or teach, I didn't play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, embroidery and incense, none of them can get my hands on it, but I am proficient in teasing cats and dogs!" ”
The more she talked, the more angry she became, and Mrs. Lu sighed heavily.
"Xiang Mom, seeing that the big girl is about to discuss marriage, there is something going on in the previous dynasty...... This girl's heart is higher than the sky, and she actually looks down on the nobles of Tianhuang, where can we get such a splash of wealth in Pingnanhou Mansion? ”
Every time Hou Ye Xie lost his sense of proportion because of Xie Li's affairs, Mrs. Lu would always scold for half an hour. Xiang's mother has long been accustomed to it, so she smiled and persuaded a few words.
"Old lady, Master Hou naturally understands, our eldest lady is also a sensible person, and she looked a lot more reasonable a few days ago. As long as you teach her carefully, she will understand. Besides, with a grandmother like you, you can naturally find a good son-in-law for the eldest lady. ”
"I hope so." Old Madam Lu looked down at the simple and heavy Buddha beads, and suddenly whispered: "I owed her back then, and now I should return it to her daughter." ”
"Old lady!" As soon as Mrs. Lu's words fell, Xiang Mother looked solemn, and hurriedly looked around, and found that the little girls were all waiting outside, so she persuaded in a low voice: "Good end, why did you mention it again?" ”
"I'm just going to say a few words to you. The things of that year, right and wrong, were all fate. Old Madam Lu sighed, "Otherwise, why would my stupid son be like this?" ”
---
On both sides of the conversation, the carriage of Xie Li and his party slowly stopped at the door of King Chen's mansion.
After getting in the car, Xie Li held a book and pretended to sleep, and Xie Tian, who wanted to speak several times, failed to find a chance to speak along the way, and held back until the end.
"Pingnan Hou Mansion has arrived."
The bright and dignified voice of the singer sounded, Xie Li raised his face from the book, and immediately met Xie Tianhong's fluttering little face and big watery eyes.
She was born small, and now she is a little more charming and charming with "peach blossoms with rain".
"Fourth sister, are you not feeling well?" Xie Li was startled, how did this look like he had cried?
Xie Tian raised his hand and patted his face, and replied timidly: "Xu is that the carriage is too stuffy, so I just lifted the curtain and blew a cold wind for a while, which was a little cold." ”
"Oh, then let's wait, if you get off like this, others will think I'm bullying you." Xie Li suggested solemnly.
Xie Tian's submissive expression froze, and he opened his mouth, stunned that he couldn't say half of the word "no".
"Bai Lu, you go and talk to Madame. Let's just say that the fourth lady is unwell, let the coachman send her back. After speaking, Xie Li smiled softly at Xie Tian, and prepared to lift the curtain and get out of the car.
Didn't you say okay, wait together?
Xie Tian's eyes widened, and in a hurry, he grabbed Xie Li's wrist and said urgently, "Big sister! ”
"How?" Xie Li also looked back innocently.
The black and white eyes are full of innocence and innocence.
"I ...... I'm fine, just blow the wind. After Xie Tian finished speaking, he opened the curtain and poured a few big mouthfuls of cold air, and the flush on his face receded.
"Miss, why are you still in the carriage, Madame is waiting."
Tianlan, the big girl beside Mrs. Wang, raised her head slightly, looked at the motionless car curtain, and raised her voice.
"There's Sister Lao Tianlan." Bai Lu lifted the curtain of the car and showed a smiling face, "Fourth Miss is weak, our girl is comforting her." ”
What kind of labor is weak, maybe how to humiliate others?
Tianlan recalled Xie Li's temperament, the corners of his mouth pulled down, fleetingly, and asked with concern: "Fourth Miss, are you better?" ”
"Thank you mother for worrying, I'm fine."
The curtain was lifted, Xie Tian's little face was pale, and there were still two lumps of blush on his cheeks, which made his temperament even weaker.
She was about to get out of the car, but she suddenly reached out and pulled Xie Tian's sleeve suddenly, Xie Tian said "oops", and fell backwards, Xie Li Shi Shiran stood up from the other side and got out of the car.
And this scene happened to fall in the eyes of Xiao Yue, the county lord of Anping, who was by the door.
