377. Congratulatory gifts
Zhuang Li really didn't come back that night, and Treading Snow looked at the courtyard of a courtyard called Qixia Courtyard in the garden, and took advantage of the night to clean it up, the Qixia Courtyard was spacious and bright, and Ling Xue Courtyard was separated by a distance that was not far away, and it was not close to the distance, and there was a corridor in the middle, and the two sides could not be connected to each other after locking, from the point of view of avoidance, it was the most suitable, it seemed that Treading Snow would have figured out Xu Shu's mind thoroughly, and the yard was just right.
The next day, Xu Shuben was waiting for Zhuang Li to come back, and he didn't want to hear someone report suddenly, "Miss, Miss Ten is here!" ”
"Ten sisters? Why is the tenth sister here? Xu Shuqi said, last time Xu Shu sneaked out, she will definitely be strictly guarded when she goes back, how can she still come out? Didn't you say that Grandma Sun was strict? Could it be that Xu Jiao is a step ahead?
In confusion, Xu Wei had already entered the house, carrying a small burden in her hand, although this burden was small, it looked heavy, and it seemed to be loaded with some heavy objects, Xu Wei entered the house and put the burden directly in front of Xu Shu, "Ninth sister, these are all for you, just make up for your birthday gift!" ”
Xu Shu reached out and touched a hard corner, and then touched it to the side and seemed to be able to touch some cold textures, which seemed to be jewelry?
"Tenth sister, ...... are you?" Xu Shu withdrew her hand and looked at Xu Shu suspiciously.
Xu Wei uncovered the baggage, revealing a piece of jeweled jewelry inside, in excellent condition, all of which were Xu Tao's favorite on weekdays, and Tao Xue looked at Xu Tao with wide eyes, "Miss Ten, what are you doing with so much jewelry?" ”
Xu Wan took out a stack of silver tickets from her arms and put them on, "I saved these things, and I'll give them to you now." ”
Xu Shu touched the cold jewelry, but her heart was warm, and she smiled with sour tears in the corners of her eyes, "Give it to me, what should you do?" ”
Xu Wan said indifferently, "All my expenses in the Xu family have a share of the public school, and there is no special place to spend money, so I don't need these!" But you have to spend money on everything outside, and I used to spend a lot of money, and I didn't save much cash, so I collected some jewelry, and if you took it and sold it, you could get a lot of silver! ”
Listening to what Xu Shu said that day, Xu Shu realized that Xu Shu was now back with nothing, very pitiful, and after returning to Xu's house, she suddenly saw her own jewelry full of several boxes, and immediately had the idea of taking these jewelry to help Xu Shu.
"I have received your wishes, but you can take these things back! Not to mention that I am not short of silver now, even if I lack silver, there is no reason to sell my sister's jewelry, and I have given me a piece of jewelry, will I go out bare when I go out in the future? How do you explain when the elders ask you? Second, if I really sell your things, so that your jewelry falls into the hands of the gangsters, and people take your jewelry to the Xu family to ask for relatives, how will you deal with yourself? ”
"I ......" Xu Shu didn't think of it so much, and she was a little scared when she heard Xu Shu say this, lest this situation really happen to Xu Shu.
"Get the stuff back!" Xu Shu smiled and tied the burden again, "I was teasing you last time, no matter how short of money I am, I have more silver in my hand than you, and the eldest sister has sent things over every now and then, I really don't lack anything here!" ”
Xu Yao sat down angrily, "It took me so much effort to get out of the trip, but in your eyes, it's like a child messing around!" ”
"Okay, I was wrong, I won't tease you next time!" Xu Shu hurriedly apologized.
Xu Shu also felt that she was too anxious, and she should inquire clearly before acting, but she couldn't wipe her face, so she refused to admit it like this, and still made an angry appearance Xu Shu had to promise again and again, and said good things again, and coaxed her with snacks for a long time before she smiled again, "That's it, I won't bother with you this time!" ”
Xu Shu pinched her face, "Good! I'll steam the sugar cake for you later! Xu Shu liked sweets and happily agreed, Xu Shu said again, "How did you run out today?" You only came out two days ago, and no one looked at you? ”
Xu Yao's face was stained with inexplicable sadness, "The family is messed up now, where can you take care of me, I came out all the way, there was no one to stop me, the carriage and horse room saw that I was going out, I didn't want to play cards, and I was sent directly over after giving the horn silver!" Xu Wei sighed, her voice was doubtful, disgusted, and regretful.
"When I went back from you that day, I thought my mother would ground me, but from the time I entered the door until I returned to Shaohuaju, no one asked me where I had gone for half a day since I was gone, and I didn't see my mother to punish me, and I didn't see the shadow of the seventh sister, I called Danfeng to go to Chunhui Courtyard to ask, but others refused to say, but Mama Wu knew that I was going back from you and revealed two words to Danfeng!"
"Mama Wu said that her mother was relieved of the right to take charge of the house by her father, and all the account books were sent to the second aunt's house, and the second aunt took the sister-in-law to take care of the house! After the seventh sister found out, she ran to plead with her father, and was scolded by her father and sent to her grandmother to serve the sick, and I knew that my grandmother was sick, and the illness was not light, and the doctors lived directly at home! Xu Wei didn't know that Wang's illness was starving and angry in Jingyuan, and being despised by Xu Shu and being ashamed, but Xu Wei had never been favored by Wang, and she didn't feel so worried when Wang was sick.
"The sister-in-law is a fast-moving, the account book that she received at night, and led someone to take inventory early the next morning, but found that many of the things recorded in the account book were no longer found in the library, and the sister-in-law thought that it was the mother who was in charge of these, whether the things were used but not recorded in the account, so she went to ask the mother. The mother scolded the eldest sister-in-law without saying a word, saying that the eldest sister-in-law disrespected the elders, poured dirty water on her, and framed her for embezzling public property! ”
"The sister-in-law couldn't stand it, she fainted on the spot in anger, and it was a period of delaying the doctor's consultation, although the second aunt is usually silent, but everyone in the house knows that the second aunt loves the sister-in-law the most, and the eldest brother is not even allowed to accept the concubine, seeing that the sister-in-law is angry with her mother, she complains about her mother in her heart, and she doesn't care that her grandmother is still sick, and she takes the account book to her grandmother to settle this confused account!"
"The second aunt has never been so serious, no one can persuade her, and my grandmother somehow agreed with the second aunt's approach! Despite the fact that he was still sick, he called the people who guarded the treasury to question them one by one, and also called the bookkeeper to check the accounts! "The Wang family naturally took out all the anger that Xu Shu suffered on the Li family, it is rare to have such a good opportunity to embarrass the Li family, where is the Wang family willing to let it go!
