Chapter Forty-Eight: Foolish Dreams
"Stupid thing! Pouring water won't either! What else do I want you to do? It's better to send away the people earlier. Xia Zhiqiu began to lose his temper as soon as he arrived at the Hibiscus Garden, flicked his sleeves, knocked over the tea on the coffee table to the ground, and stared viciously at the little peach who was squatting on the ground to clean up.
The girl's face was not good when she came back, she was already cautious, but she didn't expect to make the girl disgusted. Xiao Tao picked up the debris on the ground, didn't dare to say more, and retreated.
"Why is your temper so big?" A familiar female voice came from the door, and Su was helped in by her mother-in-law.
Xia Zhiqiu hurriedly stood up and went down to greet him: "Why is my mother here?" But what happened to the Hou Mansion? ”
With a light smile, he gently tapped his daughter's head with his hand: "You, you don't remember the prince all day long, and you always think about what the Hou Mansion does?" There is me and your brother over there in the Hou Mansion, so you don't have to worry about it. ”
"Qiu'er isn't worried about her mother." took Su from her mother-in-law's hand and helped someone sit on the stool: "Mother, don't lose your temper with me again."
Looking at his daughter's coquettish appearance, Su's heart softened: "If it weren't for your future, I would also want to take you with me from time to time."
"Mother," Xia Zhiqiu called softly, slowly squatted down, and lay on Su's lap: "Qiu'er is in this palace, she is doing well, and her mother doesn't have to worry about it."
Sighing, touching the head on his knee with his palm, Su Shi's eyes looked into the distance: "I came here today to see you."
The mother and daughter said something considerate again, and Xia Zhiqiu looked at her mother with a bitter face: "Mother wants to help her daughter."
1510 added oil and vinegar to tell Su Shi today's events.
"Smack!" Su Shi slapped on the coffee table, and his eyes were round: "She's a cheap girl!" It's a dream! ”
Thinking of stepping on Zhiqiu's body and flying on the branches to become a phoenix? She Xia Zhixue didn't even think about it.
Seeing that Su Shi moved his luck and his chest was folded together, Xia Zhiqiu stood up and gave her a smooth breath: "The left and right daughters are not angry, and they have lost their mother's face." Mother don't be angry anymore, so what should Qiu'er do? ”
Originally, he was angry with Xia Zhiqiu in his heart, but when he heard his daughter say this with a crying voice, Su Shi also softened his tone: "Good boy, I don't blame you for this, I only blame Xia Zhixue for putting her mind on the person who shouldn't be released."
"Mother, what should I do now?"
"Don't worry," Su Shi picked up the tea on the coffee table and took a sip: "You can go to this garden party."
……
"Girl, the old lady is here." The lotus lifted the curtain and shouted to the inner room.
Xia Zhixue was reading a military book, heard the sound of the lotus, put the book behind the table, stood up, and greeted it: "Mother is here, Zhixue is far away, and I ask my mother not to blame."
Su took Xia Zhixue's hand affectionately and patted it: "I didn't make a noise when I came today, but my father and the prince know, where will you lose your welcome?"
The two walked to the back room together and sat down next to the coffee table. Xia Zhixue helped the person sit down, and straightened up again: "Lotus, hurry up and make a pot of soothing tea for the old lady that my sister wrapped for me."
He sat down next to Su Shi with a light smile, his eyes bent into the moon: "The tea sent by my sister is good tea, I hide it and drink it by myself on weekdays, but my mother came." I am willing to take it out, you taste it, if you like it, you will wrap half a pack. ”
Su Shi knew that the tea was not clean, but he couldn't show it, so he was stunned, and then nodded with a smile: "That girl also gave me a packet, I'm old, how can I use these things,"
"Mother, I'm not old at all." Xia Zhixue poured a cup of tea from the lotus and handed it to Su: "Mother, please use it."
He took it with a smile: "I just used tea at your sister's place, and I know that you are filial." Put it there first, and then use it later. ”
Scared? Xia Zhixue nodded slightly: "That's it, put it over there first."
"Mother," Xia Zhixue continued, "Is everything okay in the house?" Daddy's body is okay? My daughter has not been at home for many days, and she can't fulfill her filial piety, and she feels guilty when she thinks about it. ”
If you want to put it aside, how could Xia Zhixue say such sensible words? It's true, it's really as she expected, on weekdays in the Hou Mansion, she pretends to be crazy and stupid.
Su Shi was "relieved": "Stay in the palace with your sister, everything is fine in the mansion."
"Zhixue." Su Shi let out a long sigh: "I have something to ask for."
"If you don't ask for anything, mother, please say." Xia Zhixue picked up the tea on the side and took a sip in front of her.
Su Shi didn't see it, and his expression did not change: "Your sister's body is not very good, I often urge her to take a walk in the Hou Mansion, and when I get to the palace, no one urges her, she must be lazy, you are a lively person, help me walk with her more on weekdays."
Is this to find her as a gunman? Xia Zhixue couldn't see through what this old witch was thinking, and her face was embarrassed: "My sister has an idea, I'm afraid that the persuasion will be tight, and she will be unhappy."
Take her hand from the table. Su Shi earnestly taught: "I heard that there is a garden party in Heshunhou Mansion, and the female dependents in the capital have gone to eighty or ninety percent, and your sister has always been happy and quiet, and she has no close friends, thinking that this is also an opportunity, so you can help me persuade her and let her go too." I persuaded her for a long time, but she refused to go, I really couldn't do it. ”
It's different if you live for all these years, this Su clan has a lot more brains than Xia Zhiqiu.
Xia Zhixue nodded, with a well-behaved face: "I privately thought that I would let my sister go with me, but I was afraid that I would talk too much and make my sister bored.
"Good boy, mother knows that you are the most sensible." Looking at Xia Zhixue with a "relieved face", Su Shi pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled.
……
"The spirit of the third sister today." In a blink of an eye, on the day of the garden party, Xia Zhixue wore light clothes, water-colored skirts, pleated hems, and tops for fear of wind outside. The lotus put a warm yellow shawl on her, and combed all her hair up, looking much more heroic than before.
Xia Zhixue walked over slowly: "The prince is used to talking, my sister will come out for a while, and you will only think I am cheesy."
This color is a little cheesy, but it looks good on her. Ouyang Huaiyu thought like this in his heart, his face was still faint, and there was no other expression.
"Lord Wang, the wind is strong. Get in the carriage. Xia Zhiqiu dressed up hard today, and then went out, and came out to see the prince and the cheap girl talking and laughing, and he was unhappy, so he walked forward quickly and reminded softly.
Ouyang Huaiyu just couldn't see her careful thoughts, so he turned around and got into the carriage according to her words.
"Third sister, I have wronged you. Today, the prince is only equipped with two small carriages, and this one is afraid that it will not accommodate three people, and I will take care of the prince, and I will not be able to sit with you. Xia Zhiqiu didn't have a trace of guilt on his face.
I'm not happy to sit with you, that's what I want. Xia Zhixue smiled and nodded, and got into the back car.
