Chapter 15: Madame Xu's Conspiracy
"How can it be done, my cousin is a guest, I can't snub you!" Xiao Li stepped forward and grabbed Xu Caiyi's arm, and Xu Caiyi's face immediately turned pale in pain.
"Accidentally touched your wound?" Xiao Li thoughtfully helped her rub it, which made Xu Caiyi's face even paler.
"I wasn't feeling well, so I quit first." Xu Caiyi squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying.
"Okay, then you have a good rest first, and I'll let someone call you later!" Xiao Li saw that it was almost done, so he let Xu Caiyi go.
"Lotus, Ji Yue, you two take the girl in colorful clothes to Mrs. Xu." Xiao Li gave an order, and left with Old Lady Hui.
"Let's go to Biheting to sit down, it's hot." Old lady Hui wiped her sweat and walked straight to Bihe Pavilion.
"Daughter-in-law Sun, look at this lotus, it's beautiful!" Old lady Hui is like asking for credit.
"Grandpa, did you get this?" Xiao Li was a little surprised, it was difficult to get lotus flowers in this big pool.
"Those are inevitable!" Old lady Hui puffed up her chest, "At the beginning, because my wife liked lotus, I got her a pool, but unfortunately she was gone." ”
"I heard that grandpa has a birthday recently?" Xiao Li wittily changed the topic, she didn't want Old Lady Hui to recall any bad memories.
"Ah, yes! In a few days, my old man will be seventy, and he will be a year older. Old lady Hui sighed.
"You're not old! You're going to keep digging birds' eggs with me!" "Hui Chongde people are small and big, and they say sensibly.
"You stinky little devil!" Old lady Hui happily touched Hui Chongde's head.
"Daddy said that if I touch my head, I won't grow tall, and I can't touch it!" Hui Chongde removed Old Lady Hui's hand and said.
"Hahaha, it's good, it's okay if you don't touch it!" Old Lady Hui smiled heartily, "Don't you can't come down next time!" ”
"I won't!" Hui Chongde clenched his small fists and said unconvinced, "This time it's just an accident!" ”
"Okay, okay." Old lady Hui had no choice but to agree.
Xiao Li looked at Old Lady Hui and smiled without saying a word. Old lady Hui is really an elder for Xiao Li. Because Xiao Li's grandfather and grandfather died early, she felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy when she saw Mrs. Hui. So she decided to make a birthday cake for Mrs. Hui on his birthday. Ancient people should have never eaten cake, and Mrs. Hui should like it.
"These lotus flowers will bloom in a few days, and you can come here to pick lotus seeds and eat them when the time comes." Old Lady Hui smiled and said to Xiao Li, "The lotus seeds here are sweet. ”
"It's obviously very bitter!" Hui Chongde said with a blank look.
"You fool, can you not be bitter every time you eat lotus seeds?" Old lady Hui knocked on Hui Chongde's head and said.
The three of them sat in Biheting and looked very harmonious. And Mrs. Xu's side was different, filled with Xu Caiyi's crying.
"Auntie, you have to make the decision for me!" Xu Caiyi said cryingly.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Xu saw her favorite niece crying so much, and hurriedly asked, "Who bullied you?" ”
"It's not that young lady!" Xu Caiyi stomped her feet, still crying.
"You mean that Xiao Wanyin?" Mrs. Xu asked tentatively.
"Yes, that's her. She relied on Old Lady Hui to spoil her, so she bullied me! Xu Caiyi choked up and said, "I have pain in my body now!" ”
"Why did she bully you?" Mrs. Xu rubbed her eyebrows, she really didn't want to deal with this Xiao Li, she was sharp-tongued, so she had no choice.
"She was originally going to pick up a little ghost from the tree, but she pulled me over, and the little ghost fell directly on me, you see my arm, it's all purple!" Xu Caiyi cried and narrated, and then pulled up his sleeves again, exposing pieces of bruise.
When Mrs. Xu saw Xu Caiyi injured like this, she was also distressed in her heart. After all, Xu Caiyi is her niece.
"Auntie, you have to make the decision for me!" Xu Caiyi took Mrs. Xu's hand and said.
When Mrs. Xu heard this, her face turned sad. Because Xiao Li is really difficult to deal with, she has suffered the upper hand several times, and she can't lift her head.
"Auntie, what's the matter? Don't you love me the most? Xu Caiyi saw that Mrs. Xu didn't speak, and she was coquettish.
"It's not that I won't help you, it's my aunt who can't help it." Mrs. Xu sighed and said.
"Why does my aunt say that?" Xu Caiyi stopped crying and asked in a hoarse voice.
"I was suppressed by her several times, because she was the main room and I was a concubine. Although the generation is older than her, it is useless for the old man to want me. Mrs. Xu sighed and shook her head.
"That girl is sharp-toothed, Old Lady Hui also favors her, if I find trouble with her, Old Lady Hui will suppress her." As Mrs. Xu spoke, her face became darker and darker.
Mrs. Xu has been favored in Huifu for so many years, and no one can scare her before. But as soon as Xiao Li came, she completely lost her power, no matter how much the master spoiled her, it was useless.
Xu Caiyi pondered for a while, and suddenly said, "It's better to ...... Let her never be qualified to be a young lady? ”
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Caiyi suspiciously and asked.
"Auntie, didn't she have a round house with Major General Hui? If she is found to have fornicated with others......" Xu Caiyi didn't say anything later, but smiled very sinisterly.
"This ......" Although Mrs. Xu is a white lotus, she has never thought of being so harmful.
This Xu Caiyi is a ruthless character, what he wants to get, he must work hard to get it, even at the expense of framing others. As long as Xiao Li is framed, Hui Shangyi will give Xiao Li a leave of absence, and then her chance will come.
Thinking of this, Xu Caiyi had forgotten the pain on her body and smiled very brightly.
"No, this is the General's Mansion, you can't mess around!" Mrs. Xu frowned and rejected Xu Caiyi.
"Auntie, you don't have to be afraid, just find a man with a stupid mouth and easy to control when the time comes." Xu Caiyi said slowly, "Think about how that woman hurt you, how can you swallow this bad breath?" As long as she's gone, you have no scruples! ”
Xu Caiyi said sentence by sentence, and Mrs. Xu was very moved. She always wanted to vent her evil anger, but she didn't know how to deal with her. But Xu Caiyi's method is too dangerous, and it will be over if it is exposed.
"If you really can't do it, you just find an uneducated mute, the dumb person can't speak, and he can't say what he wants to ask." Xu Caiyi knew that Mrs. Xu was afraid of being exposed.
Mrs. Xu closed her eyes and thought for a while, then opened her eyes and said, "Okay, just do it!" ”
"Then on Old Lady Hui's birthday, there are a lot of people, so that everyone can know that this woman has lost her virginity, and see what face she has to continue to live." Xu Caiyi's face was full of excitement, as long as Xiao Li disappeared, everything was easy to say.
"Good! Just do as you say! I'm going to find someone. Mrs. Xu smiled and picked up a piece of dim sum and sent it to Xu Caiyi's mouth, "You are really my baby!" ”
"Hehe, thank you, aunt!" Xu Caiyi smiled and ate a snack.
"Madam, the lord has sent a message to let you and Miss Caiyi go to lunch." A girl is now reporting at the door.
"Okay, you tell the master and we'll come!" Mrs. Xu got up and pulled Xu Caiyi out of the courtyard.
There were still a lot of people in the dining room, Hui Shangyi was also there, and Xu Caiyi saw this handsome man in the distance. When she was a child, she came to visit her aunt with her father and was fascinated by this man.
She was only about ten years old at the time and tripped over a rock. A teenager was now in the sun and held out his hand to her. Since then, she has fallen in love with Hui Shangyi. It's just that she has never had the opportunity to meet Hui Shangyi. Otherwise, she felt that she could be his wife.
"Hello Major General." Xu Caiyi walked to the dining table with a smile and said hello to Hui Shangyi.
Hui Shangyi didn't care too much about Xu Caiyi, because he had been looking at Xiao Li and had no time to take care of others. So he nodded perfunctorily and continued to stare at Xiao Li.
Seeing that Hui Shangyi didn't react, but kept staring at Xiao Li, Xu Caiyi angrily wrangled the handkerchief.
"Everyone is together, let's eat."
Old lady Hui spoke, and everyone moved their chopsticks.
"Li'er, eat more." Hui Shangyi took a piece of fish, helped her pick the thorns on it, and put it in her bowl.
Because of Xu Caiyi's arrival, Xiao Li had to sit next to Hui Shangyi, causing Xiao Li to want to shoot this person to death now.
"Eat your own, I'll pick up the food myself." Xiao Li threw the fish meat that Hui Shangyi had given her back into his bowl. Hui Shangyi just didn't listen, and had to serve her vegetables.
But there are so many people, and Xiao Li is not easy to attack, so he has to chew the vegetables fiercely. As if Hui Shangyi was the dish in her mouth, she couldn't wait to strangle Hui Shangyi to death.
Xu Caiyi's face was crooked, obviously she heard that Hui Shangyi was not good to Xiao Li, and she didn't have a cave room, but now Hui Shangyi was very attentive to Xiao Li, which made her jealous.
It must be pretending, Hui Shangyi doesn't like her at all! Xu Caiyi secretly comforted herself in her heart.
In this way, Xu Cai finished eating lunch without knowing anything. At the same time, her hatred for Xiao Li was a little more.
"Please ask General Hui to take care of my affairs more." Xu Jing caught up with Hui Yuzhong after dinner and said.
"Well, General Ben remembers." Hui Yuzhong waved his hand impatiently and sent Xu Jing away.
Every time Xu Jing came to Huifu, he must have something to ask him to help, at first he could accept it, but then he became more and more excessive, which made him a little bored. But he is Mrs. Xu's own brother, so it has something to do with it, so he can't help it.
After Xiao Li ate here, he began to plan how to make cakes. Because Xiao Li likes to eat desserts, he was bored in college, so he found a part-time job in a dessert shop for three years, where he learned a lot of ways to make desserts.
It's been a few years, and she's not sure if she'll be able to make it successfully. Moreover, in an underdeveloped place like ancient times, some of the important tools for making desserts did not have important tools, and it was difficult to make them. But she was determined to do it, so she just gave it a try.
