Chapter 17: Contradictions
Mrs. Su sat on the couch with a very bad face. She has had a good relationship with her master over the years, and this is the first time that Master Su has quarreled with her because of this.
"Mother!" Su Yuqi took two quick steps and interrupted Master Su's words: "Did something happen?" What happened to Grandmother? ”
Master Su glanced at Mrs. Su and snorted sullenly: "The Lin family took a fancy to Sister Qiao, came over to ask your grandmother what she meant, but your mother didn't agree, and she confronted your grandmother for this matter!" ”
Su Yuqi's heart sank slightly, she grabbed the handkerchief in her hand, looked back at Master Su, and then said, "Look at Sister Qiao?" Father, I'm afraid this thing really can't be done. ”
Master Su was bumped by his wife and daughter, and he felt that his face couldn't get over it all of a sudden.
"It's just to come and see, the Bai family hasn't replied since they went to Xin'er, doesn't Brother Ping mean that General Ning Yuan is not in the house? Why can't it be that the Bai family is unwilling to pay attention to Sister Qiao? Your mother's crooked bowels are rising. “
Mrs. Su bit her lower lip suddenly, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Su Yuqi immediately went to pull Mrs. Su's hand: "Does my father know about the jade cicada?" ”
Master Su was quite impatient: "I know." ”
"Father thinks the jade cicada was lost first, or was it lost later?" Su Yuqi asked.
Where did Master Su pay attention to this kind of thing, and frowned: "What's the difference?" ”
"If the jade cicada had been lost a long time ago, what if Sister Qiao deliberately cheated it?"
Master Su shook his head: "This is impossible. "It's been seven years, and it's not that I don't know what Sister Qiao is like.
Su Yuqi knew what Master Su thought. In the past, Sister Qiao was only afraid to speak, but who can say that Sister Qiao really didn't dare to say or didn't want to speak?
"Your mother is more and more able to teach you, and she teaches you to think as much as your mother!" Master Su waved his hand, and walked out angrily, saying as he walked: "Mother, you go and say something good, Sister Qiao's affairs are still up to Mother!" ”
Su Yuqi stomped her feet, pouted angrily, and went to comfort Mrs. Su.
Su Yushan was also surprised when she learned about this from Mrs. Susan. Grandmother actually released the news that Sister Qiao was looking at each other a few days ago! The Lin family even came to the door to send the birthday eight characters! Sky! What kind of family is the Lin family! It's just that there is a show talent, and I heard the eldest brother say that the Lin family's brother is not very good at school, and the family is even more poor, such a person dares to worry about the eldest lady of the five-grade general's mansion!
Mrs. Su San didn't have any expression, she was just saying something that had nothing to do with her. Since that incident, Mrs. Su San has vowed never to pay attention to any of Sister Qiao'er's things again, and she will not touch it.
Su Yushan's attention was not on Mrs. Su San, what she was most shocked at the moment was that she found that her grandmother, who had always understood how to be measured and had ideas, was also confused.
"There was a fight in the second room because of this, and when the second master came out, there were several more blood paths on his neck. Your grandmother sent a message, don't spread this matter to Sister Qiao. Mrs. Su explained, and when she talked about the second room, her face was obviously more sneering. The good second lady of the Su family sat on this part, which was also a big surprise.
Su Yushan nodded: "I know Mother." ”
Not long after Bai Qiao returned, two servants brought two plates of summer shirts.
"Girl, this is a summer shirt sent by Qingfangzhai. Can you try it and still fit? The people of Qingfangzhai haven't left yet, if it doesn't fit anywhere, the old slave will take it and let them change it. ”
Bai Qiao hummed and motioned for the servant to put her clothes down.
Light yellow, peach, blue blue, purple, neatly stacked in a tray.
Shuang'er is very skilled in wearing this kind of clothes, Bai Qiao let Shuang'er put it on, and then looked carefully in front of the bronze mirror before nodding: "It all fits well." ”
The two servant women immediately curtsied and saluted, "Yes, the old slave will retire, and the girl will rest early." ”
"Miss! What a beautiful dress! I only measured the size yesterday, and I will do it today~" Bi Tao exclaimed, these clothes are much more beautiful than the clothes in the clothes shop I saw on the street today.
"Bi Tao, put your clothes away." Bai Qiao commanded, got up and went to change into a cool summer shirt. Nine times out of ten, the clothes that have been delivered today have been rushed out, and the needles are thin and new. However, it seems that they should all be the latest, which shows that Mrs. Su is attentive.
The north and south of Lanshan House are transparent, and most of the days in summer are exposed to the sun, and the house is much hotter than the small side house when I first woke up.
"Girl's hot, isn't she?" Dong'er brought a bowl of ice porridge and put it on the table: "This is the lychee that the third master sent back outside, and the maid went to the kitchen just now and said that the girls have a bowl." ”
"Hmm." Today's treatment is really in accordance with the girls of the Su family.
"By the way, on the way, I listened to Shuang'er next to the eldest girl talking to Xia'er, saying that the old lady has been exempted from getting up in the morning to say hello these days, and the girl can be lazy."
"Is there something going on?" Bai Qiao tasted the ice porridge and raised his eyes to look at Dong'er. The last time she was exempt from good morning was because the thunder struck her house. So what is the reason for this time?
Dong'er was stunned for a moment after speaking, blinked, looked at Shuang'er again, and suddenly became nervous in her heart, and the girl's reaction seemed to be a little too sharp. She only thought about telling the girl about it, and didn't think about how to say why. The girl is usually cold, and she never asks why......
Shuang'er also knew a little about what happened today, it was the master's business, and ordered not to tell the girl, they must not say it. pursed his lips, and hurriedly stepped forward to fan Bai Qiao: "Shuang'er, do you have a reason?" ”
Dong'er reacted and immediately shook her head, "No, I just said what the old lady meant." ”
"Oh." Bai Qiao replied faintly.
"Xu is the old lady's meaning, the girl just happened to sleep a little more in the morning." Frost smiled and played a round game.
"Okay." Bai Qiao nodded, concentrating on eating ice porridge. Maybe there are lychees, and the taste of ice porridge is better than last time.
From this day on, Bai Qiao was still the same as before, walking in the courtyard or garden, no longer going to the old Jiao house, but staying in Lanshan Residence more. She has a cold temperament, and only Su Yuqi has a word every two days. The Su family seems to be the same as before, but Bai Qiao knows that it is actually different.
There seems to be some contradiction within the Su family, and the confrontation is tight. Even when Su Yuqi came to speak, there was a little blue under her eyes.
A few days later, someone from Mrs. Su's room invited Bai Qiao, saying that she was inviting Bai Qiao to come over.
