Chapter 120: Connecting Feelings
This can be said to be an insult to the righteousness. What was given to Xiao Yixian was a precious coral bracelet, but what was given to Xiao Yiran was a worthless silver bracelet, and she said that she thought Xiao Yiran liked this, this is not a mockery that she has never seen the world!
The atmosphere cooled down again, and everyone looked at each other for a while, and they all turned their eyes to Mrs. Zou, wanting to see what she thought.
Mrs. Zou was also a little unhappy at this time, but she couldn't blame them in front of everyone and save her face, so she just said lightly: "Your cousin doesn't just like silver bracelets, don't do this next time, you should give her the same as other sisters." ”
"Nope! Grandmother, too, loved it. Xiao Yiran suddenly smiled, and put the silver bracelet in Zhang Jiayao's hand on his hand in the surprised eyes of everyone, "Thank you, Cousin Yao." ”
Seeing that she looked as usual, without any sense of shame or indignation about being angry or humiliated, Zhang Jiayao couldn't help but be depressed in her heart, she glared at her hatefully, and scolded in her heart: Tu Baozi!
Old Mrs. Zou saw that Xiao Yiran didn't resent Zhang Jiayao and them at all, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and she said to Xiao Shufen: "Okay, the time is almost up, it's time to eat." ”
"Yes." Xiao Shufen smiled. She knew that Mrs. Zou was still biased towards her. After all, daughters and granddaughters, who is close and who is far away, isn't it a matter of knowing at a glance!
The next meal was very happy, Zhang Jiayao did not embarrass Xiao Yiran anymore, but talked to Xiao Yixian and them vigorously, and Xiao Shufen kept making fun of Mrs. Zou and made Mrs. Zou laugh.
When they had finished eating, they had spoken a little more, and then they were going back to their dwellings. Xiao Shufen had her own special place to live before she got married, and after she got married, her residence was also asked by Mrs. Zou to stay, and she cleaned it from time to time, so there was no problem of no place to live.
Xiao Yiran was looking at Xiao Shufen's mother and daughter, who were very interested in front of her, and suddenly, a person appeared next to her and walked side by side with her.
"Cousin Ran." Xiao Yishu gently stopped Xiao Yiran.
"Cousin Shu." Xiao Yiran looked at this cousin who didn't usually say a few words with some puzzlement, and didn't know what she was doing when she suddenly stopped her.
may not be used to talking to people, Xiao Yishu saw Xiao Yiran looking at him, and couldn't help blushing a little and said, "I, I want to thank my third cousin for curing my brother and mother's smallpox last time." ”
"These are all things I should do, you don't have to take them to heart." Xiao Yiran pointed to a gazebo not far away and said, "Why don't we go there and talk, it's not appropriate to stand here all the time." ”
"Okay." Xiao Yishu nodded and followed Xiao Yiran to the pavilion.
"Cousin Ran, don't take Cousin Yao's words to heart just now." As soon as she sat down, Xiao Yishu comforted her.
Seeing that her eyes were bright and serious, Xiao Yiran's eyes couldn't help but soften: "I didn't take it to heart." ”
It's just a string of coral bracelets, and it's not fun to find yourself! Moreover, Xiao Shufen's mother and daughter snubbed themselves so much in public, and at first glance, the two of them were people who had no scheming and couldn't hold their breath, and she never took this kind of person to heart.
Hearing this, Xiao Yishu smiled reassuringly: "That's good." Actually......" She didn't know what to think, and then lowered her head again, and hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yiran asked, "Do you have anything you want to tell me?" ”
Xiao Yishu hesitated for a while, and finally said, "There is a reason why my aunt and Cousin Yao treat you like this. ”
Xiao Yiran was stunned, she did feel that Xiao Shufen and Zhang Jiayao's dislike for her was a little inexplicable, but she simply thought that it was because she was not in the house since she was a child, so they looked down on her a little, and now that Xiao Yishu said so, is there any other reason?
"What is the reason?" Xiao Yiran asked.
"It, actually, ......" Xiao Yishu stammered, her face became redder and redder, and said: "My aunt once intended to marry Cousin Yao to Cousin Zijun, and Cousin Yao had no intention of refusing. ”
And so it was! Xiao Yiran was suddenly, no wonder Zhang Jiayao had hateful eyes floating towards her from time to time, it turned out that there was still this reason. I think that as soon as she came here, she went to Bai Huaping, and they were also to ask Xiao Zijun about it, so Bai Huaping's mother and daughter must have told her everything, how could she not hate herself?
"Cousin Ran, during the time that Cousin Yao is still in the house, it is better for you to be careful." Xiao Yishu couldn't help but remind.
"Thank you." Unexpectedly, she just wanted to tell herself this, Xiao Yiran's heart couldn't help but soften.
"You're welcome." Xiao Yishu lowered her head a little embarrassed, and then took out something from her sleeve and sent it to Xiao Yiran: "Cousin Ran, this is for you." ”
Xiao Yiran fixed his eyes and saw that it was the coral bracelet that Xiao Shufen gave to each of the young ladies. Seeing that Xiao Yishu was going to give it to herself, she looked up in surprise.
"My mother doesn't like corals, so there's never anything about corals in the house. Although this bracelet is precious, someone must appreciate her, and if it is given to me, I can only put it in the box. When she said this, there was some reluctance in her eyes.
Although she likes it, she is willing to hide her likes for the sake of her mother Liu. Xiao Yiran couldn't help but like this cousin more and more, she accepted the bracelet, and then pulled out a golden hairpin from her head and inserted it on her head: "Then I'll exchange this with you." ”
"This, this is not good! It's so precious! Xiao Yishu was startled, and hurriedly plucked the hairpin off her head.
Xiao Yiran squeezed her hand and said, "You just keep it, otherwise I won't feel at ease with this coral bracelet." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yishu had to stop her movements and shyly touched the exquisitely crafted hairpin on her hand.
Xiao Yiran smiled, this hairpin was still sent by Zou in order to win him over, in this regard, Zou knows how to measure, so he is not distressed, the price of this hairpin is enough to be worth this coral bracelet.
After chatting with Xiao Yishu for a few more words, Xiao Yiran continued to walk towards Tingyu Pavilion.
But before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by a few people in front of him.
"Cousin Ran!" Zhang Jiayao was sitting on a stone bench not far away with Xiao Yixian and others and waved at her, "How about coming over and drinking tea together?" ”
"No, I'm a little tired, I want to go back and rest first." Xiao Yiran refused directly without giving face.
Zhang Jiayao lowered her face: "Cousin, this is not giving me face, I just saw that you and Cousin Shu had a good conversation!" ”
It seems that these people are waiting for themselves here! Xiao Yiran sneered in his heart, and then said, "How come? She walked towards them, "Since Cousin Yao has graciously invited, how can I not give face?" ”
Zhang Jiayao looked at Xiao Yiran, who came to her side, and smiled: "That's right, this should be the first time we've met, but we have to get in touch with each other." ”
