He Xianting wanted to struggle away from the hand held by Xiao Ju, but he didn't move because of the character.

Where's this?

He Xianruo guessed correctly, this banquet must be a turning point in her life. She complained about He Jie without complaining: I didn't even give me a task, how do I know what I'm doing here?

She sighed and shook her head.

Seeing her expression, Xiao Ju was suddenly a little nervous: "Miss, but where is Xiao Ju not serving well?"

He Xian was slightly stunned: "It's none of your business."

Xiao Ju worked harder and carefully helped He Xian to the main hall. He Xian glanced at her helplessly and did not speak.

"Sister, wait for me."

It was He Jiayan, the fourth lady of the He family, who spoke. On weekdays, she dared to shout so loudly in the house.

He Xian's footsteps paused, thinking that the little girl was here to find her, and now she can only wait and see what happens.

"Sister, let's go together." He Yao snatched the hand that was held by Xiao Ju and squeezed Xiao Ju aside.

He Xian glanced at He Jin, and let her grab her arm and walk to the front hall together.

Although the He family style is traditional and conservative, it seems to be a family that keeps pace with the times when it comes to the outside. I don't know whether to say that this is a good idea or a serious double standard, I really don't know where to start.

He Xian observed the people present and the middle-aged man led by him, and guessed a few points in his heart. She knew that the master of the He family was a complicated and awkward character.

Mrs. He waved lightly to the two of them not far away, and He Jin pulled her towards Mrs. He without waiting for He Xian to react.

"Mother." He Jin called Mrs. He sweetly.

Mrs. He pretended to be angry: "I forgot to explain you, and I want to call my mother outside."

"Okay, Mom."

Mrs. He was satisfied, and took He Xian and He Jin to meet their nearest uncle's family.

Mrs. He's surname is Liu, and there is only one male in the family, so the family's silk business is handed over to the uncle. And the He family also has a very good relationship with him and often corresponds.

"Yo, this is Xian'er, right?" Uncle saw He Xian at a glance.

He Xian doesn't move around often, and he doesn't like to see relatives and friends, even if it's this uncle, he has seen him again in a few years.

The eyes of the uncles and cousins also focused on He Xian.

Mrs. He took He Xian's hand: "Yes." Xian'er, call your uncle and aunt. ”

He Xian said obediently: "Uncle and aunt are good."

The uncle praised: "The title of the first lady in Jiangcheng is really true, and Xian'er is becoming more and more dignified and beautiful."

Turning his head, he said to his daughters, "Do you know how to learn more from your envy cousin in the future?"

He Yao was not happy: "Uncle, you only pay attention to your sister, why can't you see your other niece's daughter."

The uncle laughed happily: "It's me who is confused, and Jiao'er is also slim on the ground."

"How can the two of them withstand such praise from you. This banquet is about to begin, so go to your brother-in-law first. Mrs. He said to him.

Uncle answered, and rushed to Master He.

Mrs. He shook her head with a smile and said to her uncle: "My brother has been like this for so many years, thanks to you for taking care of the Liu family."

"The third sister is polite, this is the brother-in-law's business."

He Xian didn't want to listen to the hypocrisy and grievances between them, and silently looked at the people who came. If you want to talk about a turning point, the object must be someone who looks outstanding, otherwise how can he be one of the protagonists.

Of course, this is just the law she found in the first two worlds, and it seems that He Jie is still a senior face control.

System Z silently spoke: Maybe the deputy minister will come up with something unexpected and find an average-looking protagonist.

He Xian: Shut up.

swept around, there were all types, but none of them fit her eyes.

"Xian'er? Envy? ”

When He Xian heard the call, he hurriedly withdrew his mind and looked at Mrs. He.

Mrs. He frowned: "Where are you not feeling well today?"

"No, I'm just tired."

Mrs. He sighed: "Although we can sit at the same table with them, there is still a lot of etiquette." You must not look at them like you did, but fortunately there is a screen here that prevents people from looking at your gaffe. ”

"Got it." He Xian lowered his eyes.

"Let's go, let's go meet your dad and those noble sons." Mrs. He took the hands of her two daughters.

One of the old-timers said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Brother He's daughters are so old." This is He Xian, Miss He, right? ”

He looked at He Xian and asked with some certainty.

Everyone looked at He Xian and was amazed.

He Xian saluted the old-timer: "The old-timer has good eyesight, He Xian greets you."

Master He was very satisfied with He Xian's performance, and introduced: "This is my eldest daughter He Xian, who is famous in Jiangcheng, and this one is my second daughter, He Jin."

The eyes of the sons were deeply attracted by He Xian, which made He Xian a little puzzled. It stands to reason that the original bodies of the taskers are all bad people who want to die, but this Miss He seems to have an obvious aura of the protagonist, what is the reason?

He Xian now only cares about his own eyes, nose and nose, and is obediently and skillfully a celebrity lady.

In order to let the juniors chat and talk openly, Mrs. He asked He Xian to lead the sisters and sons to the garden to play.

He Xian led the way: "This way, please."

"Eldest sister, if you are crowded in one place, that person will be a little crowded, why don't I find some sisters to go to another incense pavilion to watch?" He Jin proposed.

There are countless kinds of spices hidden in the incense pavilion of the He family, but it is not that people are not allowed to enter, and there are too many strange fragrances in this incense pavilion, so I am afraid that the ladies will feel uncomfortable.

Xiao Ju looked at He Xian worriedly, and Li Luohan, who had just entered He Xian's body, didn't know about this, and didn't think that there would be anything wrong with a Xiang Pavilion, so he waved his hand: "You go and ask which young ladies and sons are interested in incense, let's go with you."

He Yao was excited: "Thank you, eldest sister."

Among these people, there were also many children of incense-making families, and in a short time, the mighty team was reduced by a third.

He Xian noticed a girl who was standing near her in Mrs. He's house before, and she should be a young lady in her age, so she beckoned her to come over.

He Yu walked straight to He Xian's side: "Eldest sister."

He Xian knew that his guess was not far from ten: "I still have some things that I am afraid that I will not be able to entertain distinguished guests in person, sister, you will help me entertain me."

He Yu couldn't hide the joy in his eyes: "Yu'er will definitely entertain distinguished guests, eldest sister, rest assured."

He Xian smiled slightly, turned sideways and apologized to everyone: "The little girl is not in good health, I am afraid of disturbing the distinguished guests Yaxing, let my sister Yu'er entertain you first."

After that, Xiao Ju helped her back to the room.

"Miss, Xiaoju should call a doctor for you, otherwise you can't drag on this illness. If you have been weak and sick since childhood, you should also take good care of it. Xiao Ju poured her a new cup of tea.

He Xian also roughly understood some of his own situation, and took a sip of tea: "It's not in the way."

"What do I like to do on a daily basis?"

Xiao Ju was puzzled and didn't know where to start.

He Xian said: "Don't be nervous, I'll just ask you."

"Miss, you love to paint every day, and you have to lock yourself in your room for a long time every time."

He Xian observed that the desks in this room were full of scattered paintings, and in the cabinets next to them were countless paper, ink, pen, inkstone, Western oil brushes, paints, etc.

"And what are you going to do when I paint?"

"Miss never lets people into the house when she paints, usually Xiaoju waits outside, and when dinner time is almost up, she will go to get dinner and come back to you."

He Xian said coldly: "Then you don't go out now?"

Xiao Ju was frightened, she thought that Miss wouldn't be able to paint today, but she didn't think that Miss would not be left behind today: "Yes, Xiao Ju will go out immediately."

He Xian opened Xiao Ju before he dared to rummage through this room, wanting to get more information from here.

But there is nothing useful here except painting for painting. She saw Xiao Ju sitting idly on the ground from the window, so she planned to escape through the other back window without startling the snake.

She didn't know the way of the He family. On the way, she occasionally met some people who greeted her respectfully, so she knocked on the side and asked where the door was.

finally arrived at the door, but was stopped by the gatekeeper again: "Miss, are you going out?" Why don't you see Xiaoju? ”

"I asked Xiaoju to take some money and see if there is any good pen and ink today. There are a lot of distinguished guests in the house, so you are so good to watch the door and don't let those who are disappointed come in. ”

"Hey."

He Xian breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the He Mansion.

She lowered her hat slightly with her hand and tried to hide it in the crowd.

Fortunately, when she asked for directions, one of the subordinates asked her if she was going to look for good pen and ink again, which gave her this excuse to go out. If she wants to make a difference, she has to go into a random shop and buy a few to make up the number first.

Looking up and seeing a shop called "Wenbao Pavilion", she stepped in.

When the shopkeeper saw her, he said happily: "Isn't this Miss He, let's look for pen and ink again today."

He Xian nodded.

"Today, I happened to buy a new batch of goods. In this Manjiang City, our family is the first to enter such a high-end Western tool. ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly shouted to the poor scholar who came here to work: "Xu Mu, quickly show today's goods to Miss."

The scholar who was named picked up expensive painting tools and walked towards He Xian.

He Xian fixed his eyes and suddenly felt that his heart suddenly beat vigorously, and his breathing stopped for half a beat.

What's going on?

She stabilized her mind and carefully looked at this migrant worker named Xu Mu.

looks clean, about a head taller than He Xian. But it's not a handsome man, and it's easy to ignore at first glance.

The shopkeeper thought that Xu Mu was angry, so he explained: "He is a poor scholar in the east of the city, and he has no money to pay tuition, so he comes to my store to do odd jobs to make money." It's only been a few days since I've been here. ”

"Miss He, his painting skills are also a must, why don't you let him try painting tools for you?"

At that time, it was also because of Xu Mu's excellent painting ability that the shopkeeper wanted him. In order to attract more customers.

He Xian saw that Xu Mu's eyes were full of expectation, and nodded for some reason.

Xu Mu was happy in his heart, spread the drawing paper, cherished those painting tools, and squeezed the paint to paint.

She looked at this mediocre-looking man and hesitated: Is this the person I want to protect?
