Chapter 301: Joys and Sorrows (1)
The time was delayed because of the punishment of the six princesses. Xie Mingxi also returned home one stick of incense later than usual.
The sixth princess rode a horse as usual to send Xie Mingxi to the door.
Xie Mingxi got off the horse and smiled at the sixth princess: "It's not too early, Her Royal Highness the princess should go back to the palace early!" ”
The sixth princess nodded slightly, waved at Xie Mingxi, and quickly turned the horse's head. The heroic figure quickly disappeared into the twilight.
Xie Mingxi walked into the Xie Mansion with brisk steps.
"Ming Niang, you're back."
Xu Shi greeted him with a smile on his face, held Xie Mingxi's slightly cool hand affectionately, and sighed distressedly: "On a cold day, it is warmer to sit in the carriage, and I want to ride a horse." Tossing like this every day, where can the body eat. ”
has lived in the capital for half a year, and now the Xu family is also quite a bit of a noble lady in the capital. He ate delicacies and delicacies, wore fine silk and satin, and put a box of jade paste of thirty taels of silver on his face......
The Xu family, who was always heartbroken, would never have thought that the most popular jade cream in the capital today was from Xie Mingxi.
Not to mention, the cost of a box of jade paste of thirty taels of silver is only six taels. Among them, the profit is staggeringly high.
However, compared to the other "fairy pill" that is quietly prevalent among men, it is nothing.
A small bottle of "Immortal Pills" with only twenty pieces costs five taels, and the selling price is as high as fifty taels.
Don't be too expensive!
Only ten bottles are sold every day, and ten bottles are sold out, so if you want to buy tomorrow, please be early!
Two humble shops are now famous. The silver earned every month is also like flowing water, and it is endless.
Except for Yu An, no one knows that the real owner of these two shops is Xie Mingxi.
No one knew that Xie Mingxi had made a lot of money in the gambling game of the academy, and had already secretly bought a grange of several hundred acres on the outskirts of the capital, and bought a three-entry mansion in the capital.
It's better to rely on others than on yourself! People are not as good as themselves!
Xie Mingxi is well aware of this truth.
"There is a charcoal basin burning in the inner hall, it is warm, come in quickly." Xu's voice sounded again.
Xie Mingxi smiled at Xu and stepped in.
……
Old lady Xie and Xie Jun's father and son are all in the inner hall, and everyone in the second room is also there.
Xie Yunxi stood listlessly beside Xie Jun with a wistful expression.
Aunt Ding, who lifted the grounding order, stood on the other side of Xie Jun.
In the past six months of grounding, Aunt Ding has fallen seriously ill, and I don't know how many tears she shed and how much she suffered. The whole person has lost a lot of weight, and he is a little more pitiful and delicate.
The freshness of the two maids in the room has long passed, Xie Jun is bored, and he is completely softened by Aunt Ding, who is full of sorrow and tears in her eyes. I stayed in Orchid Courtyard for a few days in a row.
Although Aunt Ding hated Xie Jun for being ruthless and unrighteous, she had to be small and low, and first coaxed Xie Jun to change his mind and then talk about other things.
Because of this, Aunt Ding has shown favor to Xie Mingxi everywhere in the past few days.
"Ming Niang," Aunt Ding called softly, "Why are you late to come back tonight?" Could it be that something is delayed? ”
Without waiting for Xie Mingxi to open his mouth to respond, he said softly: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it." I'm worried, so I'll say a few more words. ”
A motherly appearance of "I still feel sorry for you even if you snub you"!
Xie Mingxi was too lazy to play with Aunt Ding, and responded lightly: "If you know that you have a lot of tongues, don't open your mouth to beg for disgust." ”
Aunt Ding: "......"
Aunt Ding also learned wisely, neither turned her head to complain, nor cried and wiped her tears. With an aggrieved expression, he hung his head.
Xie Jun saw it in his eyes, and he really felt pity. Secretly thinking about coaxing Aunt Ding in private.
In front of Xie Mingxi, he still pretended not to see it.
……
"Ming Niang, how did you do in today's annual exam?" Xie Jun smiled and asked about a topic that everyone cared about.
Xie Yunxi looked disdainful, but in fact, he pricked up his ears.
The familiar voice that made her grit her teeth and hate came into her ears: "There should be no problem in the first exam." However, the test paper is quite difficult and the grading criteria are particularly strict. It's a little hard to get a full score. ”
…… Listen to this arrogant tone!
Xie Yunxi gritted his teeth and secretly hated, and his pretty face was faintly distorted because of jealousy.
Xie Mingxi happened to look at it at this time: "I don't know how the second sister did in the exam this time?" ”
Xie Yunxi really wanted to go back with the same pride...... It's a pity, not to mention the first place in the exam, even if she takes the first exam, she has no confidence. Reluctantly, he spit out a few words: "How did I do in the exam, what does it have to do with you?" ”
Before Xie Mingxi could open his mouth, Xie Jun glared at him unhappily: "Between sisters, there should be harmony and friendship." Ming Niang cares about you kindly, what is your reaction? Immediately apologize to Ming Niang. ”
I want her to apologize again!
In the past few months, she has been too aggrieved in the Xie Mansion.
In and out, there are two maids who follow closely, and they are not free in words and deeds. I can't offend Xie Mingxi at all, and let her bow to Xie Mingxi at every turn!
Why?
She is the daughter of Xie Fu!
Xie Mingxi, a lowly concubine, why did she ride on her head to make a fortune?
Xie Yunxi's face flushed in annoyance, the water beads kept rolling in his eyes, and he replied stiffly: "I don't apologize to her!" ”
Xie Jun's majesty as a father was greatly provoked, and he was immediately annoyed, and slammed the table: "Bastard! ”
The teacup jumped with a jolt, and the light brown tea splashed on the table.
Xie Yunxi was also frightened by Xie Jun's sudden anger, his whole body trembled, and his pretty face turned white.
Xie Mingxi opened his mouth unexpectedly: "It's a little thing, why should my father be so angry." ”
Xie Jun's face changed, and he suddenly changed into a loving father's expression: "Ming Niang is still the most sensible and obedient." ”
Xie Yunxi: "......"
"My father praised me like this, and I had to accept it with a cheeky face."
Xie Mingxi pursed her lips and smiled, and looked at Xie Yunxi, who was about to explode with all her internal organs: "Actually, the second sister's temper has changed a lot, and it is much better than before. ”
Xie Yunxi finally couldn't bear it anymore and cried angrily on the spot. I ran out while wiping away tears.
Everyone: "......"
It's good to be gone, the roots of the ears are much cleaner.
……
Early the next morning, the results of the annual examination were announced on a list outside the gate of Lianchi Academy.
One by one, the students crowded under the list, looking around. From time to time there are exclamations or lamentations.
Those who did well in the exam were full of joy, those who took the second class were full of frustration, and those who unfortunately fell into the third class cried and wiped their tears on the spot. All in all, the scene was extremely lively.
Lin was slightly anxious, pulling Xie Mingxi's sleeve and squeezing forward.
I don't know who shouted: "Xie Mingxi also came to see the list." ”
The girls who were originally congested under the list turned their heads to look at each other. When he saw Xie Mingxi's face clearly, he immediately automatically and spontaneously moved away.
Lin puffed up his chest slightly with honor and dignity, and went to the bottom of the list with Xie Mingxi.
