Chapter 203: Offering Gifts
In the Evergreen Courtyard, Mrs. Xiao San and Mrs. Xiao Si were talking with Mrs. Xiao, and the two sang and harmonized, making Mrs. Xiao laugh.
There is also a lady of the Xiao family in the house, that is Yang Huijun, she should not appear here on such an ordinary day. She sat on the sidelines, silently listening to their speeches, smiling and polite.
Old Madam Xiao suddenly asked, "What time is it?" ”
Mama Gao replied, "Back to the old lady, it's time for you." ”
Old Madam Xiao frowned slightly, "It's this hour, why hasn't it arrived yet?" ”
She looked at Yang Huijun, "Did the letter say that you arrived in the capital today?" ”
Yang Huijun stood up and replied, "That's what the letter says, maybe it's delayed on the road, if the old lady is tired, let's go and rest first."
"Come back slightly, I will definitely bring her to greet you."
Old Madam Xiao said, "It's okay, wait a little longer, maybe you can come back before dinner." ”
Mrs. Xiao San quipped, "Yes, the old lady specially instructed the kitchen to make a lot of dishes that she likes to eat, if she can't wait for her baby granddaughter, the old lady is afraid that she won't be able to eat." ”
Old Madam Xiao glanced at her with disgust, "Just you have a lot of mouths." ”
Mrs. Xiao San pretended to slap herself, "Yes, yes, daughter-in-law is talkative." ”
Mrs. Xiao ridiculed, "I'm afraid that the third sister-in-law is jealous, when she is not in the house, she is the third sister-in-law's favorite old lady." As soon as I came back, there was no place for you and me to talk. ”
Although this is an exaggeration, there is only one girl in Xiao Lingwei in Xiao Mansion, and the other girls are married, so Xiao Lingwei is particularly favored.
Although Mrs. Xiao San doesn't deal with Yang Huijun very well, she still really likes Xiao Lingwei.
No, I also followed Mrs. Xiao and looked out frequently.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.
Old Madam Xiao asked, "What's going on outside?" ”
Vanilla walked in and said to her, "Back to the old lady, today's sunset is particularly beautiful, and the little girls are watching the sunset." ”
Mrs. Xiao pursed her lips, "What's so beautiful about the sunset." ”
Vanilla smiled and suggested, "Old lady, you and a few ladies have been sitting in the house for so long, why don't you go to the yard to see the sunset?" ”
"It's fine."
Old Madam Xiao stood up, took Mama Gao's hand and walked out.
The others immediately followed.
Old Madam Xiao stood still under the porch and looked at the sky.
The sunlight that was about to sink in the red glow turned into a strange color, layer by layer of light and color, striking, sparkling and shining into everyone's eyes.
Suddenly, a fairy flew in the sky on the clouds and in the glow of the sun.
"What's that?"
"There's someone on that cloud."
"No, that's the Sunset Fairy."
"Oh my God, it's a fairy."
The subordinates in the courtyard shouted excitedly, and Old Madam Xiao and the others were also dumbfounded.
Could it be that he is really a fairy.
The figure flew with the light on her back, and everyone could not see her face clearly, until she landed on the big tree in the courtyard, and everyone could see her clearly.
"It's Miss Six." Vanilla shouted in surprise.
Mrs. Xiao San looked at it fixedly, "Ah, it's really that girl." ”
When Old Madam Xiao heard this, there was a look of surprise in her eyes.
Xiao Lingwei flew down from the tree, held the spear in her hand, and waved it.
She was wearing a red beard suit, golden boots, and a red tassel hanging on the spear.
"Huh."
Xiao Ling screamed slightly, holding the spear in her hand and pointing to the sky, her body quickly spun.
She spun faster and faster, like she was dancing a whirlwind.
Everyone was dazzled, and in the end, they couldn't see Xiao Lingwei's face clearly, only red light and shadow remained.
Just as everyone was fascinated, suddenly, the spear took off its hand and shot straight at Old Madam Xiao.
"Ahh
The crowd screamed in fright and froze in place, too late to react.
Yang Huijun was on the right side of Mrs. Xiao Si, and Mrs. Xiao Si was next to Mrs. Xiao, with her skills, she could stop the spear without hurting Mrs. Xiao at all.
Although Old Madam Xiao struggled with her on weekdays, she still didn't think about it at this critical moment.
But there is one person who is faster than her, and that is Xiao Lingwei.
Everyone almost didn't see it clearly, Xiao Lingwei had already arrived in front of her, and when the spear was still a foot away from Old Madam Xiao, she grabbed the spear, did a backflip, and waved the spear again.
But for a moment, she knelt on the ground, holding a peach in both hands, and said to Mrs. Xiao with a smile, "The queen mother is above, the little one just went to the peach orchard to pick a peach for you, please enjoy." ”
Old Madam Xiao was shocked, looked at her smiling face, was stunned for a moment, and then scolded with a smile, "You little monkey, you have played such a play, but everyone is frightened." ”
Mrs. Xiao taught her with a straight face, "Weiwei, this is yours."
"Although you want to surprise the old lady, it was too dangerous just now.
"If that spear stabs the old lady, can you afford it?"
Xiao Ling said confidently, "No." ”
"How not? There are always times when people miss, what if the spear stabs the old lady? Fourth Mrs. Xiao pressed step by step, "Could it be that you just have bad intentions and want to kill the old lady?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed, and Old Madam Xiao's face also became gloomy.
Xiao Lingwei saw that things were not good, and hurriedly took out the spear, "Fourth aunt, don't worry, my spear can't hurt my grandmother, this is a rope." ”
Everyone was surprised, and hurriedly looked, only to see Xiao Ling slightly shake the rope in her hand straight, and played two tricks, which suddenly became the spear she had just wielded.
Old Madam Xiao was amazed and asked, "How did you do this?" ”
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "This is a trick, I draw the rope to look like a spear, and then keep waving it, and it becomes a spear."
"But ordinary people can't do it, only people with strong martial arts can do it."
She looked proud, and Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she saw it.
Xiao Ling stepped forward slightly and offered peaches, "Grandmother, this is the protagonist today." ”
Old Mrs. Xiao had already discovered that this peach was different, but she was interrupted by Mrs. Xiao just now, and when she observed the peach closely, she found that this peach was as big as four or five ordinary peaches, and it was white in the green, and red in the white, and it looked very watery.
She liked it at first sight, so she asked Xiao Lingwei, "How did this peach grow so big?" ”
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Because this is a peach." ”
"Peach?" Mrs. Xiao Si questioned, "That's all in the book, how can there be a real peach in this world?" ”
Old Madam Xiao stared at Xiao Lingwei, also waiting for this answer.
Xiao Lingwei kept the smile on her face unchanged and explained, "I picked it on a mountain in Fengzhou, according to the local people, this kind of peach is called a peach, and it bears fruit once in a hundred years, and there are not many of them." Everyone was surprised, and hurriedly looked, only to see Xiao Ling slightly shake the rope in her hand straight, and after two moves, it suddenly became the spear she had just wielded.
Old Madam Xiao was amazed and asked, "How did you do this?" ”
