70. Invited

Xu Shu drank tea leisurely, ignoring Xu Yan's face, Li himself said the wrong thing, and he didn't know how to make up for it at the moment, sitting awkwardly and helplessly and reproaching Xu Shu shook his head again and again, but unfortunately Xu Shu couldn't see it.

Xu Shu's leisurely posture as if she was watching a play stimulated Xu Yan, Xu Yan stood up with a "pout", and only dropped a sentence when she walked to the door, "The post has been delivered, the eldest aunt must come!" Speaking of this, Xu Yan's face turned better again.

"What post?" After Xu Yan left, Xu Shu asked.

Li replied, "Concubine Niangniang gave Yongle Hou a night pearl, Yongle Hou was very happy, and held a pearl appreciation banquet, and Sister Yan came back to send the post!" ”

Sure enough, Xu Yan found an opportunity, but unfortunately he was a blind man, and he couldn't see the exquisite rarity of the pearl that night, so he didn't have to join in the fun, Xu Shu thought like this, and made up his mind that he didn't want to join in the fun.

The Li family suddenly leaned over and whispered, "I heard that the lady concubine will also go out of the palace to the Hou Mansion that day!" ”

Li suddenly said this, Xu Shu felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, Li continued, "Sister Yan said that you were surprised by the empress dowager last time in the palace by listening to the voice, and the lady concubine was very curious, and she also wanted to see and see, and the pearl appreciation banquet was just right for the mother to see!" ”

The implication is that Xu Shu must go, but Xu Shu doesn't want to go! It's not that she is afraid of Xu Yan, she is afraid that Xu Yan will calculate against her, but after all, everyone is the daughter of the Xu family, disgust is disgust, and fratricidal cannibalism is another thing.

It's not that time yet......

"I suffered the cold in the Rongguo Mansion last time, and I have been feeling groggy recently, and my ear power has also decreased, I am afraid that I will not be able to show ugliness in front of Concubine Niangniang!" Xu Shu politely refused.

"There are still a few days left and right, you have a good rest, don't make a mistake in front of your mother!"

Ignoring Xu Shu's words, Li's self-caring attitude made Xu Shu's head hang slightly, "Okay, I know!" ”

Li nodded with satisfaction, "If you lack anything, tell Mama Wu, if you don't have it in the public, I'll make it up to you from the private treasury!" ”

Xu Shu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, mother!" I just asked my mother to borrow something to use! ”

"What else do our mother and daughter say about borrowing or not? Just take what you like! Li glanced at Xu Shu dotingly, "What do you want?" ”

Xu Shu said, "Princess Ji gave me a sapphire blue Shu brocade skirt, thinking that there was no suitable jewelry, and suddenly remembered that when I was a child, I saw a silk gold dot emerald crown in my mother's dresser, which just matched the skirt, so I wanted to borrow it from my mother!" ”

That point emerald crown Li originally planned to give it to Xu Ting, Xu Ting couldn't move it every time she saw that phoenix crown eye, Li thought about waiting for Xu Ting to give it to her when she was in tune, but now Xu Shu asked for it, she boasted before that she would give Haikou whatever Xu Shu wanted, and Xu Shu rarely asked her for something......

Although he was covered with a cloth belt, Li could also feel the expectation in Xu Shu's eyes, and finally gritted his teeth, "I can't even think of it if you don't say it!" It's been put away for many years, and I'll let Mama Wu find out! With that, he asked Mama Wu to pick up something.

Xu Shu thanked happily, "Thank you, mother!" Mother is so good to me! As he spoke, he shook Lee's arm.

Seeing that his daughter was so happy, Li Shi also felt happy, and nodded Xu Shu's forehead, "Little monkey, you are going to be shaken apart!" Seeing that Mama Wu handed over the things to Yuanyuan, Li pushed Xu Shu, "Let's go!" Come on! If you stay any longer, I'll have to empty your house!" ”

"Mother is so stingy!" Xu Shu smiled and retorted, but also obediently left.

met Xu Ting holding the account book at the gate of Chunhui Garden, "Seventh sister! ”

"Ten sisters!"

Since Xu Ting was suspicious that Xu Shu heard her conversation with Xu Shu, she no longer dared to get close to Xu Shu as before, pretending to be very busy every day, so busy that she didn't have time to contact her sisters and sisters.

And Xu Shu didn't take the initiative to find Xu Ting, so except for the Li family or the Wang family, the sisters almost never met again.

Xu Ting glanced at Xu Shu, Xu Shu was still as petite as ever, especially in the background of the tall wind, it was even smaller, the wind swept over the round next to her, Xu Ting's eyes were attracted by the box in Yuanyuan's hand, it was a carved lacquer box decorated with Hetian jade, so that the precious box would never contain anything worthless.

What did her mother give Xu Shu?

Xu Ting was curious, but she couldn't open this question, and saw Xu Shu walking away with the box, so she whispered to Ye Qing beside her, "You go to Xuexiang to play, she has always played well with Mingxiu!" ”

Mingxiu took care of the Li family's clothes and jewelry, Ye Qing understood, gave the account book he was holding to the person next to him, and went to the back room to find Xuexiang.

Xu Ting took the account book to ask the Li family for advice and accepted the Li family's inspection at this time every day, but today Xu Ting was a little absent-minded and miscalculated two lines of accounts in a row.

Li's face sank, "What's wrong with you today?" You haven't missed a word for a long time, why did you make mistakes one after another today? ”

Xu Ting said ashamedly, "It's my daughter who was distracted and failed her mother's teachings!" ”

How can you be distracted?

Lee then asked, "What's wrong?" What's on your mind? ”

Xu Ting's eyes flashed, and she lowered her head, "I just met the ninth sister at the door, and I heard her talk about the current situation of the eldest sister, and my daughter is very worried about the eldest sister......

How hard a widow's day is, only those who have experienced it will know! Even though the Xu family is pressing, the Sun family does not dare to embarrass Xu Jing in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but there is nowhere to relieve the loneliness of being alone in the long night. How many widowed women can't stand such an endless day and go to despair.

Li Shi suddenly burst into tears, "Your sister's life is really miserable!" After speaking, he couldn't cry.

Xu Ting hurriedly blamed herself, "It's all because my daughter is not good, and my tired mother is sad!" ”

Li patted her hand with satisfaction, "You are a good boy, you think about your sister all the time, you have to go and see her more when you have time!" It's good that the Sun family doesn't dare to snub her! ”

Xu Ting nodded obediently, "My daughter can save it!" It's a pity that my daughter's access is not as cheap as that of the ninth sister, so I can't go to see the eldest sister if I want to! ”

Xu Shu has the carriage and horse fee chartered by the Wang family, and Xu Hui specially customized the carriage for her, and the entry and exit have always been free, Xu Ting said this, it is inevitable that there is some jealousy and envy in it, and even wants to compare with Xu Shu.

It's a pity that Xu Ting is a perfect and upright daughter in Li's heart, and she didn't understand what Xu Ting meant, but sighed again and again, "You have a heart!" ”

Xu Ting's expression darkened, and a string in her heart began to tighten, and when she left Chunhui Yuan to meet Ye Qing, Ye Qing's words made her feel even more uneasy.

"Xuexiang doesn't know, it's something that Mama Wu went to get herself, and she didn't go through Mingxiu's hands!"

What did her mother hide from herself and give Xu Shu?
