Chapter 35: The Feast
Half an hour later, Yuelan invited Xie Yunxi over.
When Xie Yunxi came over, he was sweating profusely, and as he walked, the sweat on his hair kept dripping to the ground.
It was clear that Fang Cai had done some strenuous exercise.
Looking at the dust on his legs, if Xie Yunjin guessed correctly, her second brother went to the Wu family polo field next door to play polo.
"Little sister, I'm playing polo with Wu Jialangjun next door, so you sent someone to invite me. What the hell did you invite me over, and if it didn't matter, I would go back to playing polo. ”
"The lady of the Fan family who came over today is a powerful character, don't look at what she says, but when she plays polo, she is even more powerful than us men."
"Why don't you go and take a look, that Mrs. Fan is heroic on the polo field."
Xie Yunxi said as he picked up the fan on the table again, and kept fanning it.
The eldest lady of the Fan family actually went to the Wu family polo field next door and played polo?
Didn't you just faint and invite a doctor into the house?
It's alive and kicking so quickly.
Sure enough, it's pretended, it's pretended!
This lady Fan is really a girl to be reckoned with!
Xie Yunjin thought to himself, if only he could pierce her at the beginning.
Seeing Xie Yunjin sitting on the soft couch, he didn't speak for a long time, lowering his head as if he was thinking about something.
Xie Yunxi waited impatiently, got up and walked to Xie Yunjin's side.
"My dear sister, what do you have to tell me about inviting me over today? If it doesn't matter, your brother and I have to leave. ”
Xie Yunjin raised his head and handed him a handkerchief.
"You wipe it first! The smell of sweat on your body gives me a headache. ”
Xie Yunxi looked helpless, took the handkerchief handed by Xie Yunjin, and wiped it.
After retiring the maid who was waiting in the house, Xie Yunjin opened his mouth unhurriedly.
"Did the second brother fall in love with the silver screen girl who was waiting on the stove? Today, she was instructed by her eldest brother to bring me some candied fruits, and I saw that the butterfly tassel hosta she had on her hairpin was the thing in her mother's jewelry box. When I saw that thing, I knew that the second brother specially begged his mother to send it to the girl on the silver screen, right?"
Xie Yunxi was a little surprised.
"How did the little sister know that the butterfly tassel hosta on the silver screen girl was given by me personally?"
Xie Yunxi asked Xie Yunjin again.
Xie Yunjin smiled on his face and just said.
"Except for the second brother, who else will give the silver screen girl something. The appearance of the girl on the silver screen is really good, and she is a good match for the second brother. It's just that the background of the girl on the silver screen is not good, not to mention that her mother can't look down on her, even her grandmother can't look down on her. ”
Xie Yunxi sat on the soft couch and sighed helplessly.
"What my little sister said, in fact, I also know that Yinping's background is really not good, and my mother will definitely not agree to me marrying Yinping."
Speaking of this, Xie Yunxi's eyes suddenly became gentle.
"But as soon as I saw the screen, I liked her, although I don't know if she likes me or not, but she has said that she likes to talk to me. So no matter what method I use, I'm going to marry Yinping. ”
Xie Yunxi said with a solemn look, but Xie Yunjin was startled.
The first time I saw the second brother being so serious, it turned out that it was for a woman.
Xie Yunxi looked at Xie Yunjin and spoke again.
"The eldest brother has promised me, saying that no matter what method is used, he will plead with his mother and bring the silver screen to my house to serve. Although I can't marry her now, I'm happy to have her by my side. ”
According to what Xie Yunxi said, Xie Yunjin really had no way to help him, but Xie Yunjin reminded him a few more words.
"Since the second brother likes the silver screen girl wholeheartedly, he should consider the silver screen girl, the silver screen girl's identity is special, if you let the mother and grandmother know that the second brother likes the silver screen girl, I'm afraid not to mention that the silver screen girl will be brought to the second brother's house to serve, and when the time comes, the mother and grandmother, I'm afraid that the silver screen girl will be driven out of the house."
"If you really like someone, the second brother should think about her, not just think about how to marry her back. The Yinping girl has a special identity, in front of outsiders, the second brother can't show a little bit of liking for the Yinping girl, and the second brother's liking should be hidden in his heart. ”
Hearing Xie Yunjin say this, Xie Yunxi also felt that there was some truth.
If he really likes Yinping and really wants to marry Yinping back, then he should protect Yinping even more well, and not let Yinping suffer the slightest grievance.
"According to what Xiaomei said, then what should I do? I love the silver screen, but I can't let it hurt. ”
Xie Yunxi lowered his voice and asked Xie Yunjin again.
Xie Yunjin thought for a moment before replying.
"It's not impossible for the second brother to point the silver screen to serve you. It's just that this matter should be handed over to the big brother to do! After all, the eldest brother is a few years older than us, he went to his mother's side, spoke for the second brother, and told his mother about it, and his mother will definitely agree. ”
What Xie Yunjin said made sense, and Xie Yunxi nodded.
"As the little sister said, I'll go to the eldest brother now to discuss this matter. What should I do, not only can I let the silver screen come to my house to serve, but also not let others see that I like the silver screen in my heart. ”
Xie Yunxi finished speaking, got up from the soft couch, and immediately followed out of the house.
Listening to Xie Yunxi's words, Xie Yunjin felt in his heart that the second brother should really like the silver screen girl.
It's just that she doesn't know if the girl on the silver screen will also like the second brother.
I hope that the second brother's infatuation will be able to come true in the future.
After listening to Xie Yunxi say so much, Xie Yunjin was also tired, and lay on the couch for half an hour.
……
It's time for dinner.
As soon as Xie Yunjin got up, after washing, he was served by Rue Xiang and changed his clothes, and a mother-in-law came over from Shou'an Hall.
The mother-in-law who came was Huang's mother, who was waiting by Mrs. Xie's side.
"Girl, the old lady said that there was a guest at home today, and she wanted to invite the girl to go to Shou'an Hall to accompany the old lady to dinner."
Huang's mother was full of wrinkles, and when she laughed, the wrinkles were all piled up.
However, Huang's mother is kind and kind, and Xie Yunjin has a good relationship with her.
"But Mrs. Fan has already gone to Shou'an Hall and accompanied the old lady to dinner."
Huang's mother nodded, still smiling on her face.
"The girl is right, Mrs. Fan's Fang family took the eldest lady of the Fan family and the second lady of the Fan family, and now they are in Shou'an Hall, as well as Mrs. Lin in the second room, and Mrs. Wen in the third room."
Fang went to Shou'an Hall.
I'm afraid that I still want to borrow the relationship between my grandmother and my uncle and grandmother, and talk about a family affair for Mrs. Fan, right?
Listening to the meaning of the mother, the second aunt and mother would never let a girl like Mrs. Fan who behaved vulgarly marry into the Luo family.
The Luo family is no longer here, and there is also the grandmother's maiden home Rong'an Hou Mansion, and the uncle and grandmother's maiden home Dongchang Hou Mansion.
The Marquis of Rong'an Mansion and the Marquis of Dongchang are both high-ranking dignitaries in Beijing.
First class home.
No matter whose house Mrs. Fan climbs to, it is a very satisfactory marriage for the Fang family.
When Xie Yunjin went to Shou'an Hall, he saw that the open hall of Shou'an Hall was already full of people.
Because Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Lin are elders, they sit on the top seat.
The Fang family was a guest from afar, and he didn't want to be lazy, so he let her sit next to Old Madam Xie.
Luo was the head of the house, so she had to sit next to Mrs. Lin.
Wen is a concubine in the third room, and she sat next to Luo.
Xie Yunjin glanced at it, Mrs. Fan and Mrs. Fan did not sit at the same table with the elders.
Instead, he sat in a cubicle next to the open hall.
Although the open hall in Shou'an Hall is not large, it still uses two screens carved with yellow rosewood to carve the picture of a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren, and it comes out from a room.
Mrs. Fan and Mrs. Fan sat inside, one had already started to move the chopsticks, and the other was still holding the chopsticks, pretending to be a lady.
Xie Yunjin still went to the open hall first, and then talked about it after seeing the elders.
"Grandmother is fine, uncle and grandmother are fine, mother is fine, uncle and aunt are fine, and Mrs. Fan is fine."
Xie Yunjin greeted all the elders sitting in the room in order.
"Good boy, why did you come here? Is there something on the road that has delayed you?"
Old Madam Xie looked at Xie Yunjin on the side with gentle eyes, and asked.
Xie Yunjin was so bad that he could hide it from Mrs. Xie, so he could only tell Mrs. Xie about the fact that he slept for half an hour.
"Grandmother, Fang Cai Jinniang was a little sleepy, so she slept for half an hour."
Listening to Xie Yunjin say that she slept for another half an hour, Old Madam Xie then asked.
"I slept well, did I have any nightmares? If you have any nightmares, be sure to tell your grandmother as soon as possible. ”
Sure enough, her grandmother still cared about her the most.
Xie Yunjin smiled at Old Madam Xie and replied softly.
"What my grandmother said, my granddaughter remembered."
After Xie Yunjin finished talking, Old Madam Xie waved her hand at Xie Yunjin and motioned for her to go to the cubicle and talk to the two girls of the Fan family.
As soon as Xie Yunjin entered the compartment, he saw Mrs. Fan, who had already disregarded her image and began to pick up the food in front of her.
Fan Erniang on the side didn't look at her, biting her ears with the maid waiting beside her, as if she was discussing something.
If they don't tell themselves, then she won't go up and ask.
Seeing Xie Yunjin enter the compartment, the Yuan lady who was waiting in the compartment asked the maid to serve in the compartment, and re-supported a small table, and put on the meals that Xie Yunjin loved to eat and were used to.
"Girl, the old lady specially told the old slave, and the old lady was worried that the girl and the two girls of the Fan family would not get along, so she asked the old slave to set up the table again and put the girl's favorite food."
"Girl, try it, this braised crucian carp is still made by the silver screen girl who is serving on the stove."
Mama Fang said, and had already handed Xie Yunjin chopsticks.
The meals made in the Xie family's small kitchen are usually prepared by the chef and eaten in person, and they are served after they are non-toxic and harmless.
Xie Yunjin lowered his head and glanced at it, and under the plate containing the braised crucian carp, there was indeed the name of the silver screen, which seemed to be made by the silver screen.
Since it was made by the silver screen himself.
Then she wants to have a good taste and look at the cooking skills of this silver screen, how is it?
Xie Yunjin asked Ruxiang to take some silver nudes out, and rewarded Yuan Niangzi and a few maids waiting in the compartment.
