Chapter 54: Harming Others and Harming Yourself (Three Watches)
,
Xie Hui was puzzled, although the things she gave were not as expensive as Xie Ru and Xie Qi, they were also first-class goods, and they cost her a lot of money. Why didn't Mrs. Xie even have a hint of joy on her face.
But something is wrong. A bad thought came to mind.
Xie Hui pinched the back of her hand ruthlessly, and silently said in her heart: No, there is no possibility that something will go wrong. It may be that the grandmother did not like this string of Buddhist beads very much.
After the fourth miss, it should be the fifth miss Xie Qing, but the birthday gift that Xie Qing and Xie Ya presented together should not be presented again.
Xie Ru raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Fifth sister, although you have already presented a gift with the third sister, but now it is your turn again, you must have a grandmother to say auspicious words again." ”
Xie Qing stepped forward generously and saluted Mrs. Xie again, "Qing'er wishes grandmother good health and all the best." ”
Old Madam Xie smiled from ear to ear: "Hurry up, good boy, don't follow your big sister to coax, your grandmother has already received your heart." ”
"Fifth sister, didn't you buy a birthday gift? Take it out quickly, but don't hide it. Xie Hui said with a smile.
Xie Qing frowned slightly and didn't speak.
Xie Ru took over: "Fifth sister, you originally prepared two gifts, the fifth sister really has a heart." ”
For a while, everyone's eyes were on Xie Qing, waiting for her to come out with a second gift.
However, Xie Qing didn't move for a long time, and Xie Hui's eyes flashed with coldness.
"Fifth sister, I know, that gift was bought by us at the Treasure Pavilion, and the white jade Guanyin was a gift you picked for your grandmother." Slut, when you take your things out, you're dead!
Xie Hui couldn't help laughing when she thought of the hands and feet she had done on that white jade Guanyin, and she couldn't help but laugh to see if her grandmother would look at her differently in the future.
Xie Hui was secretly proud, what she didn't see was that Old Madam Xie's face above instantly froze.
"Okay, don't make fun of Miss Qing, I've already received Miss Qing's birthday gift."
Old Madam Xie wanted to turn the page, but Xie Hui refused: "Grandmother, since the fifth sister has already bought everything, how can she not offer it, you just give her this opportunity, that Baiyun Guanyin is the best thing in the Treasure Pavilion." ”
Xie Ru also said with a smile: "Hearing what the fourth sister said, I am becoming more and more curious, what does this white jade Guanyin look like." ”
Xie Ru and Xie Hui said a word, forcing Xie Qing to take out the things.
"Grandmother forgiveness, Qing'er did buy a white jade Guanyin, ready to give it to grandmother as a birthday gift, but before the gift, Qing'er suddenly thought that this thing was produced in Jingxi, and it was similar to grandmother's name, so I didn't dare to take it out. It just so happened that I pestered the third sister to learn embroidery a few days ago, and I also helped her add a few stitches, so I said that the Guanyin seemed to be embroidered by me and the third sister. ”
Xie Qing lowered his head, ashamed.
"Okay, you Xie Qing, I'll just say where do you have that embroiderer, you can embroider something like that, it turns out that you borrowed the light of the third sister." Xie Hui immediately jumped out and accused Xie Qing.
Xie Ya hurriedly stood up and spoke for Xie Qing: "Grandmother, this embroidered fifth sister has also contributed a lot, and I ask grandmother not to blame her." ”
"Third sister, I know that you have a good relationship with the fifth sister, but after all, this is a birthday gift for grandmother, and she clearly did not take her grandmother in her eyes and did it perfunctory." Xie Hui was as if she had caught Xie Qing's pigtails, and she was triumphant.
Xie Hui continued: "Grandmother, the fifth sister is clearly unfilial, you must punish her severely!" ”
Seeing that her daughter was pointed out by Qianfu, Lin hurriedly wanted to stand up and plead for mercy, but Liu's eyes on the side were quick, he grabbed her, and whispered in her ear: "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, Qing'er has already said it, it's okay, she has a way." ”
Lin was very anxious, and said in a low voice: "But Xie Hui is holding Qing'er, I'm worried about ......."
"Second sister-in-law, since Qing'er said that there is a way, she must have already thought of a way to deal with it, so don't worry." Liu persuaded. Looking at the girl who knelt on the ground with a calm expression, Liu couldn't help but nodded, although she and Xie Qing have not known each other for a long time, but this girl's mind is by no means ordinary and transparent, she firmly believes that there will be a shocking reversal in a while.
Lin glanced at his calm daughter, and thought that his daughter had an idea since she fell into the water, and she was stupid, so she was afraid that she would be unhelpful, so she could only hold back her inner worries and wait to see how things developed.
Sure enough, as the Liu family expected, Xie Qing had already known what Xie Hui had done, but she had already arranged this earth-shattering reversal.
"Enough!" Old Madam Xie roared angrily, "Xie Hui, today is the birthday banquet of the old woman, you are making a lot of noise here, I don't think it is you who doesn't take my grandmother to heart!" ”
Xie Hui was so frightened that she quickly knelt down and said, "Grandmother, Hui'er knows her mistake and asks her grandmother for forgiveness." "She can't make Mrs. Xie angry at this time, she has already been grounded, if she makes Mrs. Xie angry again, I'm afraid that she will only be more sad in the future.
Old Madam Xie held back the anger in her heart and waved her hand, "I have already received Qing'er's gift, so I don't need it, go back to your seats, Qing'er, you go back too." ”
Xie Ru said with a smile: "Grandmother, my sisters are all kind, you are a birthday star today, you can't be angry, this gift can be given at any time, and the fifth sister will give it another day." ”
From the perspective of others, Xie Ru came out to play a round and say beautiful things. However, it was not the case in Xie Hui's ears. Today's gathering of guests is a great opportunity, and if you miss it, it will be very effective.
"Grandmother, the fifth sister spent a lot of money to buy you a birthday gift, if you don't look at it, wouldn't you live up to the fifth sister's heart."
Old Madam Xie only felt that her forehead was abrupt, and she couldn't stop scolding Xie Hui in her heart, this scourge that caused trouble!
Xie Qing sighed lightly, "Grandmother, it seems that the third sister really wants to look at things, and I also asked grandmother to allow Qing'er to present the gift." ”
Old Madam Xie didn't speak, so Xie Qing took her as a default and instructed Xiao Wan: "Xiao Wan, bring the things." ”
Xiao Wan said and presented a box, Xie Qing opened the box and presented the gift to everyone.
Xie Hui's face froze instantly, and he blurted out: "This is obviously a birthday gift I bought, how did it become yours!" ”
There was clearly a string of Buddhist beads lying in the box.
Xie Hui remembered clearly that Xie Qing bought a white jade Guanyin, and this string of Buddhist beads was bought by her.
Xie Qing's face changed, and he hurriedly looked down, surprised: "Why is this contained here?" Little Bend, didn't I tell you to go out carefully before you go out? What's going on? ”
Xiaowan scratched his head, thought about it, and replied: "The slave and maid remembered, just now I was on the way here, I happened to meet the maid next to Miss Four, and it happened that my hairband was scattered, so I put down the gift box, and the maid next to Miss Four helped me tidy it up, maybe I took the wrong thing at that time." ”
Xie Qing frowned: "In that case, Fourth Sister, isn't what you offer the White Jade Guanyin I bought?" ”
Xie Hui's expression flickered, "Impossible, impossible, that white jade Guanyin ......" After the words, Xie Hui covered his mouth in time.
"Grandmother, this should be a misunderstanding, and please grandmother not blame the fourth sister." Xie Qing pleaded with Old Madam Xie.
I saw that Old Madam Xie's face was pale, "Of course I won't blame her." None of the people present could hear it, but it was clearly a word bitten out of their teeth.
Xie Hui's face turned pale, and he sighed in his heart, it's over......
No, she can't just sit still, she still has a chance.
Xie Hui rushed forward, picked up the gift box of the birthday gift she had just offered, opened it and saw that there was a broken white jade Guanyin lying quietly inside.
"Wow......" Xie Hui threw herself directly at Mrs. Xie and cried, "Grandmother, fifth sister, she has such a poisonous mind, she wants to frame me, grandmother, you have to make decisions for me." ”
Old Madam Xie hurriedly shouted, "Don't pull her away yet!" ”
This Xie Hui thought that she was a fool, thinking that she would pounce, hug her thighs, and shed a few tears, even if she had avenged herself.
Xie Hui was dragged away by her grandmother, she kept holding Mrs. Xie's thighs, wiped her tears and said: "Grandmother, fifth sister, she deliberately changed things, this white jade Guanyin was broken, she deliberately exchanged this unlucky thing for me, but I dedicated it to my grandmother, she wanted to frame me." ”
For a while, everyone turned their eyes to Xie Qing, this gift was originally changed in a good way, it was quite strange, it turned out to be like this.
Xie Qing, who was originally kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up and walked up to Xie Hui.
Xie Hui raised her head and looked at her: "What, you have done something bad, don't you want people to say it?" ”
Xie Qing's cold eyes shot at Xie Hui, and then raised his hand to slap him.
Everyone only heard a snap, but the fourth lady, Xie Hui, fell directly to the ground.
Xie Hui covered his face with one hand, pointed at Xie Qing with the other and scolded: "You slut, you calculate me, and you dare to beat me!" You don't have to die well! ”
"Bastard thing!" Old Madam Xie couldn't help but scold.
Xie Hui was even more proud: "Grandmother, you must punish Xie Qing severely!" ”
Old Madam Xie's crutches shook heavily to the ground: "You are the one who should be punished!" ”
Xie Hui froze, "Grandmother, I'm ...... I didn't do anything, how can you punish me? ”
"Fourth sister, you are still obsessed." Xie Qing sighed, "You just calculate me, and you don't look at the time and place, today is my grandmother's birthday banquet, here is the birthday banquet, you broke the birthday gift I prepared for my grandmother, and wanted to frame me, but as a result, you hurt others and yourself, and you have saved enough face for you, but you are still a thief, and you still want to splash dirty water on me, you are too much!" ”
