Chapter 66: Cousin Girl

Li Qiaohui's eyes are slender, her nose is not tall or straight, her face is thick and square, and she looks at the lower half of her face a little plain. The contours of her facial features are a bit like that of an old lady, and she always has calculations in her eyes, diluting the ordinary simplicity.

Hearing the old lady say that she was going to stay here, Li Qiaohui's face suddenly added a bit of flattery, and her eyes flashed with brilliance.

Yao took these subsections in his eyes and took them to heart. Although it is not enough to make a conclusion about Li Qiaohui, the first impression is not very good after all.

"It's good that the old lady is happy." Yao knew why the old lady was in front of so many people, and deliberately asked her what she thought, and he also knew who the golden hairpin on Li Qiaohui's head was wearing.

The old lady wanted her to open her mouth to settle Li Qiaohui, so that the main courtyard and the two and three bedrooms would not have to pay for the silver. I put a golden hairpin on Li Qiaohui's head early on, forcing her to take out a heavy gift as a meeting gift.

Yao didn't count the meeting gift of a junior, and took off the white jade bracelet he wore today from his wrist. "The first time I saw my cousin niece, I don't know what you like, so let's wear this bracelet and play with it first."

The jade bracelet is clear, carved with lotus leaves and lotus flowers, which is not particularly valuable, but it can be called exquisite and elegant. It's as valuable as the old lady's golden hairpin, but it won't go over.

The old lady has been in Beijing for many years, even if she doesn't have a good object in her hand to play with, she has seen a lot with a pair of eyes, and she knows the value of the jade bracelet at a glance. Her face was slightly pale, but her tone was a hint of sarcasm: "You have a heart." ”

Especially when she saw Li Qiaohui smiling in a blink of an eye, eager to kowtow to Yao's family, the old lady's face stiffened. "Okay Qiaohui, you go outside with your cousins first."

Li Qiaohui's eyes are full of bracelets in her hands, she is not an uninformed countryman, gold is priceless and jade is priceless, gold hairpins are just gold melted, you can buy it with a little wealth, and the best jade is different.

In this comparison, the coral bracelet given by the second cousin and the pearl earrings given by the third cousin all look a little shabby.

Walking out of the door, Li Qiaohui's eyes rolled, and she stepped forward to hold Yu Can's hand. "Big sister, you have this bun so well, which maid helped you comb it?"

Yu Can didn't understand why Li Qiaohui was suddenly close to her, she was not used to holding hands with strangers, but it was impossible to throw people away.

"It's the pear in my house." Yu Can replied sullenly, turned his eyes to look at Yu Mingyi, and squeezed his eyebrows at her to signal her to save the child. Who knew that Yu Mingyi also squeezed her eyebrows at her, and it was very obvious that she wanted to watch a good show.

"Which one is the pear tree?" Li Qiaohui turned her head to look at a group of maids, and saw that Li Shao stood still and bent her knees at her, so she directly ordered, "You comb my hair for a while!" ”

Yu Can was dumbfounded, what is the situation? Why did the strange cousin order her personal maid as soon as she came up? Or is it such a thing as combing your hair?

"Poof-" Yu Mingyi laughed unceremoniously, and finally stepped forward to grab Yu Can and rescue her from Li Qiaohui. "Where's the hair-combing maid next to my cousin?"

Many high-ranking ladies in Beijing have maids who don't do anything except comb their hair, but Yufu is not so generous, and several girls are personal maids who are dressed up.

But Li Qiaohui, who is a newcomer, doesn't know this.

When she heard it, the girls in Beijing were so exquisite, and there was only one stupid pig-like spike by her side, and she was compared to these pretty maids who were not even as good as handymen.

Li Qiaohui's cheeks were hot, and she was restless in her heart, so she didn't mention combing her hair if she knew this.

Yu Mingyi snorted coldly in his heart, and didn't let her go just because she blushed. "I see that my cousin only brought a maid, could it be her? Just now she was carrying her luggage, and I thought she was a rough man. ”

After Li Qiaohui received Yao's meeting gift, she dared to squint at her mother with disdain, which made her very unhappy. She is unhappy, how can she let the culprit be in a good mood?

Li Qiaohui's face faded red, and suddenly became iron-blue. When she first arrived, she didn't dare to quarrel with her cousins in Bofu, saying that she was a cousin, but in fact, she had expressed 108,000 miles, and she knew it very well in her heart.

[I won't even say a word for me, it doesn't seem to be a good thing, who is pretending to be simple? ] There are no men here! 】

Li Qiaohui's dull voice sounded in Yu Can's mind, so angry that her cheeks were about to bulge into bubble-spitting fish. Li Qiaohui was rude first, she was generous and kind and chose to ignore it, she didn't say anything unpleasant, and now she is actually complained.

Yu Can's mind is simple and simple, but many things are clear, and she feels that Yu Mingyi's sudden sarcasm is obviously for a reason.

Under normal circumstances, Yu Mingyi is not so bitter and mean, and deliberately pokes at people's shortcomings.

Thinking that Li Qiaohui grabbed herself as soon as she went out, ignored her younger sisters, and only said goodbye to her mother warmly when she left the house, and only shouted faintly to the second aunt and third aunt.

Yu Can quickly understood that Li Qiaohui's closeness to her was not for no reason, but because of the white jade carved bracelet.

The second room and the third room are tight, and the second aunt and the third aunt will definitely not give heavy gifts, even if they want to, they can't take it out.

Li Qiaohui is a pure person who is not complicated, Yu Can thought, just because of a meeting gift, her cousin who is related by blood is not close, but close to the long house without blood, is she stupid or stupid?

After thinking about it, Yu Can's impression of Li Qiaohui was a little worse.

"When it's time, go in and sit and talk." She withdrew her hand from Li Qiaohui's hand and quickly took a few steps forward.

The old lady should have specially instructed her to brew two pots of good tea, which were hot, and the smell of tea spread with the smoke, filling the room with fragrance.

Yu Can sat on the left side, next to Yu Mingyi on the right hand, and then Yu Min, the three of them hugged tightly, Li Qiaohui couldn't squeeze in, so she had to sit opposite.

She sat in the first place with a big grin, and Yu Mingyan, who loved to be the first in everything, was suddenly unhappy, and sat a little farther away with a cold snort. Yu Zhen followed her cautiously, not looking up or talking.

A room full of young girls sat together, and they should have been chattering very noisy, but now they were silent.

Li Qiaohui was stabbed by Yu Mingyi, and when she noticed Yu Can's alienation, she became angry and sat on the side sulking.

After a while, Yu Can felt that the atmosphere was too weird, so he had to silently take on the responsibility of the eldest sister to drive the atmosphere. "Is my cousin from Anzhou? By boat or by car? ”

Li Qiaohui muttered: "It's a boat, and the waterway is faster after all." ”

Yu Mingyi squinted, hesitated for a moment but couldn't help asking, "Cousin, why did you come alone?" "She didn't have any malice this time, she was genuinely curious.

Yu Can was also curious, Li Qiaohui was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she only brought one Sui'er from Anzhou to the capital, which was a bit strange no matter how you looked at it.

The Li family is not without people, why not find a few reliable escorts?

Li Qiaohui's eyes flickered a little when she heard this, and she lowered her head slightly and pretended to look at the tea bowl, which was clearly a little weak.

"My father died, and my stepmother treated me badly. Some time ago, I received a letter from the old lady asking me to live in Beijing for a while, but I was afraid that my stepmother would stop me, so I left a letter and left. ”
