Chapter 146: Lifting the Lockdown
Hua Cheng returned to the palace and began to encourage Ouyang Huaiyu to buy a mask for Xia Zhixue.
"I heard the lotus say, the third lady has fallen in love with a mask, and she is reluctant to buy it!" Hua Cheng's eyebrows fluttered and he said, his vivid expression was really a little like that of a husband and wife with a lotus flower.
"Xia Huaiqing usually gives that girl a month's money, and she saves money to buy what she likes." Ouyang Huaiyu heard what Hua Cheng meant, but he didn't follow Hua Cheng's words.
"Lord Wang!" Hua Cheng sighed, "How can Qixi not give a gift to the third lady?" β
Ouyang Huaiyu patted his thigh, "You didn't say that I almost forgot, it will be Qixi Festival in a few days, and I have to go to the street to prepare some gifts for the eldest lady." With that, he pulled Hua Cheng out of the door of the waiting house.
Hua Cheng laughed, "Fortunately, I have my own reminder, and the prince has finally opened his mind."
But Hua Cheng repeated the last sentence, "Miss? Rajah! Rajah! Wait for me! How did you give a gift to the eldest lady? β
Downtown.
"Childe, look, these styles are the favorite headwear of today's girls, especially this tassel earring, the ladies in the capital are all a pair!"
Ouyang Huaiyu hooked the corners of his lips, "Put it up." For the fiancΓ©e, please ask the proprietress to wrap it carefully. β
Hua Cheng squinted at his own prince in the back, it was supposed to remind the third girl to give the Qixi gift, but suddenly it became for the eldest girl. I don't know if the prince is really unenlightened or deliberately made the third girl angry.
"Hua Cheng, you said that the third girl wants this mask, don't you?"
Walking to a mask vendor, Ouyang Huaiyu pointed to the rows of dazzling masks and asked Hua Cheng.
Hua Cheng's head was like pounding garlic, and he nodded vigorously, "If you send it, the third girl will definitely be happier!" β
In the next second, I heard Ouyang Huaiyu pondering the rows of masks and saying, "That big girl must also like it very much!" Boss, let's put this row up for me. β
Later, Hua Cheng followed Ouyang Huaiyu to the Houfu with a few gifts packed in cloth bags.
"Go, give these gifts to the eldest girl in person, and say that I gave them." After speaking, Ouyang Huaiyu came to the main hall and waited for a cup of tea with Xia Huaiqing.
On the way to Xia Zhiqiu's house, Hua Cheng happened to meet Xia Zhixue.
Xia Zhixue's face was as red as a boiled crab.
"You better take it back, I won't accept Ouyang Huaiyu's gift."
Hua Cheng wanted to cry without tears, but he still had to say, "Third Miss...... This...... Not for your ......"
Xia Zhixue's ears turned even redder after hearing this, and she was still begging Ouyang Huaiyu to miss her. What kind of person is herself, how can anyone be willing to give her true heart to love her? Xia Zhixue smiled bitterly and nodded to Hua Cheng, "Then please help me ask my sister okay." Then he walked away in small steps. Sister Literature Network
Before leaving, Lotus gave Hua Cheng a roll of his eyes. Hua Cheng wanted to cry without tears at the moment. I really have obviously reminded the prince, I blame the prince for not knowing how to be flexible, how can I still care about giving gifts to the eldest lady at this time?
Xia Zhiqiu, who received the gift here, was about to lift his tail into the sky, "I know that Brother Huaiyu is still thinking of me, you tell Brother Huaiyu that I am fine, so he doesn't have to worry about me." When the time comes, we will marry me on an auspicious day, and we will never have to part again. β
The corners of Hua Cheng's mouth rose slightly, revealing a very standard smirk, and then left.
The next day, Ouyang Huaisen came to visit, and after saying a few words to Xia Huaiqing, he went straight to Xia Zhixue's yard.
"I happened to see this hairpin on the street, and I immediately thought of you, so I bought it back. You try. As he spoke, he handed Xia Zhixue a jade hairpin, which was decorated with green as the base and two small pearls. Elegant and not temperamental, with a hint of gorgeousness in plain quietness.
Compared to any mask, this hairpin obviously won Xia Zhixue's heart.
"I like it very much, you have a heart."
Ouyang Huaisen smiled, "If you like it, it means that my vision is still good." β
Qixi Festival is approaching, Xia Huaiqing ordered Xia Zhiqiu's ban to be lifted, but sent three mothers-in-law and three strong men to Xia Zhiqiu's side at any time to report Xia Zhiqiu's whereabouts to Xia Huaiqing. can move around at will at any time, but he has to be watched by others at all times, which makes Xia Zhiqiu extremely uncomfortable.
Xia Zhiqiu learned to slowly control his temper during the nearly month of confinement. Without the Su family, she can only rely on herself to take care of everything. Slowly, she missed the days when Su Shi was there, although sometimes she was forced to do things she didn't like to do, or she was angry but didn't dare to vent it, but in those days, she could clearly feel the existence of her family.
But now, she can only feel Ouyang Huaiyu's greetings and warmth several times a month, although this makes her very happy, but in Xia Zhiqiu's heart, of course, she still wants Ouyang Huaiyu to come and see her a few more times.
Every day and night, Xia Zhiqiu would draw strokes on paper, and she thought that as long as she had drawn enough thirty paintings, Ouyang Huaiyu would definitely come back to her. In fact, often before the thirtieth day, Ouyang Huaiyu will come to see her with what she likes. Happiness suddenly surrounded Xia Zhiqiu like a pink bubble.
On the first day of lifting the grounding, Xia Zhiqiu met Shen Wei under the pretext of going to see Xia Chengdao.
"You're really fast. It's been a month, didn't you promise me to ruin Xia Zhixue's reputation? Shen Yuan, I've been waiting for a month, and there is no news at all? Xia Zhiqiu raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Wei.
Shen Wei took a deep sip of tea, "If you and your mother were efficient, Xia Zhixue would have been gone a long time ago." Then it's my turn to teach her a lesson? β
Xia Zhiqiu slapped Shen Yuan's face, and a bright red palm print appeared on Shen Yuan's originally white and tender skin at this moment.
"What qualifications do you have to call my mother?"
Shen Wei covered her slightly flushed face and sneered, "Just because she threw her face into the Houfu outside." This is true, but it is extremely harsh in Xia Zhiqiu's ears. Why can others talk about his mother? Xia Zhiqiu's other arm was raised, ready to teach Shen Wei a lesson, but was grabbed by someone else's elbow.
"Enough!" It's Xia Chengdao.
Xia Chengdao shook off Xia Zhiqiu's hand, "If you don't have the ability, don't play prestige in our yard, if you have that strength, it's better to think more about how to deal with Xia Zhixue!" β
After speaking, he began to blow on Shen Wei's slightly flushed face. The mist in Shen Wei's eyes became heavier, and a pair of pitiful eyes tugged at Xia Chengdao's heart.
Xia Zhiqiu sighed that Xia Chengdao had a daughter-in-law and forgot his mother's character. At that time, the person who worked hard to pave the way for Xia Chengdao was the Su family. And Xia Chengdao will not know anything else except Shen Wei's words. How can I have such a stupid brother? Xia Zhiqiu felt that the heavy responsibility of avenging the Su family could only be entrusted to himself, and no one else could be relied on!
