Chapter Forty-Nine: Let's be more restrained
"Why are you staring at me like that?" The garden party was farther away, so Xia Zhixue let Lotus get into the carriage with her.
Lotus took out a bowl of pastries from the bamboo basket and handed it to Xia Zhixue: "I look at the girl's beauty."
Gently pinching a piece of delicate mung bean cake with her bare hands, Xia Zhixue's lips opened lightly, took a bite, and nodded: "My lotus flower is becoming more and more sophisticated now."
"Thank you girl for complimenting," Lotus eyebrows crooked: "Did the girl know anyone from Heshunhou's Mansion?" The girl went alone this time to socialize: "The slave maid heard that the people over there are very powerful, and they are ...... is a few points more powerful than Hou Ye. "Blame her for her shallow knowledge, in the past, the girl taught her to read, eight times out of ten times she found a reason to be lazy, and now it can be regarded as the girl's mouth "The book is less hated when it is used".
And Shunhou Mansion? She only heard that there was a young lady and a young master in the family, and she didn't see them come out with other sons on weekdays.
Xia Zhixue shook his head: "Since I was a child, my father didn't like me to go out of the house, saying that I was ruthless, and I only shirked it for fear of upsetting everyone, I knew in my heart," self-deprecatingly pulled the corners of his mouth: "He is afraid that I will embarrass him." Fingers unconsciously fiddled with the silk handkerchief.
Seeing the girl's self-consolation in her eyes, Lotus relieved: "Girl, don't be presumptuous, I didn't have a father and mother when I was a child, and I was sold into this palace by my adoptive father, and I don't rely on it like a big lotus, girl, everything in the world is like this, more than the upper than the bottom." Fortunately, I have you who treat me as a personal master, and the lotus flower has secretly thanked God. ”
Xia Zhixue sighed secretly, the days in the palace are finally comfortable, where is it like me, I have lived in a mess all my life, and when I arrived, I died in the hands of my relatives, which is really sad and ridiculous.
……
The temperature in the eastern suburbs was much lower than in the city, and Xia Zhixue shivered as soon as she got out of the car. tightly wrapped the shawl on his body, and followed Ouyang Huaiyu into the garden.
"Ma'am." Ouyang Huaiyu motioned with his eyes to Hua Cheng to hand the gift in his hand to the little servant behind Mrs. Heshun Houfu: "I haven't seen you for many days, Hou Ye's body is much tougher than before, right?"
His tone was intimate, and his demeanor was lower than in the Hou Mansion, Xia Zhixue looked at him and said in his heart that he was really a clever person who talked about people and talked about ghosts.
In fact, Xia Zhixue misunderstood him. When he was a child, he studied in the private school in the Hou Shun's mansion, ate with them, and was the right to be his second home, and the royal brother let their family not have to be polite to him, he was also punished by the Hou Ye to kneel down, and he was a lot closer to his wife.
Madame pointed a finger at Ouyang Huaiyu's head, and reprimanded: "You, how old you are, you don't know how to take good care of your body." As he spoke, he looked back, and saw a woman with a remarkable temperament standing behind the prince, with a calm face and clear eyes.
Peeling off Ouyang Huaiyu, Mrs. grinned and said: "This is the eldest daughter of the Hou Ye, Zhiqiu, this one in our family, but he has caused you trouble, he has a bad temper, in the palace, he didn't give you grievances, right?" If there is, just tell me, and I will teach him a good lesson!" One hand held Xia Zhixue, and the other pointed to the prince standing aside.
Xia Zhixue was embarrassed, and hurriedly bowed her head: "Madame is wrong, I am Zhixue, and Zhiqiu is my sister."
She shouldn't have come today! This has just arrived, and she has suffered such a big grievance, how can she have the heart to stay? Xia Zhiqiu clenched his palms, his complexion changed slightly, he stepped forward slightly, and pulled out a smile, no matter what, he couldn't lose his identity: "Madame is fine, my third sister, I am used to moving forward on weekdays, Madame don't blame, Zhiqiu will teach my father a lesson for my ignorant sister when I go back."
I was anxious to know who the girl who would marry Yu'er in the future was, and I actually reversed the two sisters, and the lady was sneering, and she couldn't wait to give herself two slaps, which was a big shame: "Oh, blame me for being dizzy and dizzy, I didn't see it, Miss Zhiqiu should not be angry."
"It's okay." Bowing gently, Xia Zhiqiu said gently.
Xia Zhixue took a step back and bowed her head slightly: "Madame, is it a joke?" Madame looks young, too, if you say that you are old. Didn't that bring us sisters with us to grow up? Besides, where can we, mortal women, produce a character like a fairy daughter like the girl of your mansion? No wonder Madame was wrong. ”
The girl could speak, erased her embarrassment in a few words, and silently wrote it down, Liu spread her hand with a smile: "Everyone please come in."
As long as Xia Zhixue, a woman, was in the limelight, she felt uncomfortable, Xia Zhiqiu was angry, and unconsciously quickened her pace, leaving Xia Zhixue behind.
"Why did you steal the limelight from her? This is good," the back of the person in front of the chin Nunu, Ouyang Huaiyu walked side by side with her: "I must remember you again in my heart."
Xia Zhixue didn't care: "Why doesn't she remember me in her heart?" Hundreds of them are available. If I keep cowering, do I Xia Zhixue want to live? ”
Hooking the corner of his lips, Ouyang Huaiyu shook off the fan and shook it gently: "Others don't know what you think, I know."
Squinting slightly, looking at Ouyang Huaiyu's unfathomable look, he smiled faintly: "Oh? Then what does the prince say in my heart? ”
"I don't know anything else, you are not a flatterer, don't say that person is the wife of the Marquis of Heshun, that is, the queen is here, you will not rush up to talk." Ouyang Huaiyu said slowly: "Xia Zhiqiu and you are not in harmony for a day or two, the left and right can't be reconciled, as soon as your words came out, she quietly wooed the one in the Heshun Hou Mansion, she must be grateful to you in her heart, so, it is not a loss, anyway, Xia Zhiqiu is not pleasing to the eye." Is this king right? ”
Turning sideways, looking at Xia Zhixue's side face, Ouyang Huaiyu looked like he was nine out of ten.
He really guessed correctly. Just got off the carriage, she deliberately asked Lotus to take the pastries in the bamboo basket for Xia Zhiqiu to taste, and walked behind Ouyang Huaiyu and stood upright. She knows too well where her strengths are, just her temperament, where is Xia Zhiqiu comparable? I'm not afraid that Liu will admit her mistakes, I'm afraid that if she doesn't admit her mistakes, her goal will be achieved.
If she wants to survive in the capital, she only relies on the blood-sucking Hou Mansion, and she will die in it sooner or later. As the saying goes, it is good to enjoy the shade with her back against the big tree, and the big tree of the Shunhou Mansion, since she sent it to the door, how could she not hold it.
It's just that...... Xia Zhixue's eyes changed, smiled, turned his head, and met Ouyang Huaiyu's eyes: ...... "No." ”
After speaking, he took the lotus flower and walked away quickly.
Looking at the man's fawn-like back, Ouyang Huaiyu bent the corners of his lips.
"Lord Wang, let's be more restrained," Hua Cheng followed to his left, looking at his master's appearance, and reminded in a loud voice.
When did this kid become so bold? Even he dared to care? With a twist of his wrist, he closed the fan and knocked on the forehead of the person next to him: "Mouthy!"
