Chapter 10: Sword Light (1)

The ninth day of the sixth month was the birthday banquet of Mrs. Xie of Xie Fu, and on that day, Mrs. Mo got up early in the morning, and after dressing, she asked Mother Liu to come over to see how Mo Li was prepared, and it was almost time to leave.

"That's good." Mo Li finally put on a white jade bracelet and looked in the mirror again. The Xie family is not an ordinary family, and the status of the guests who go to the banquet will not be low, she is a merchant girl, and she is already inferior in front of those people, for the sake of the future, she will not dare to be sloppy in her dress today no matter what.

Mo Li touched the blue shirt on her body, this material is a light yarn from Dingzhou, and it is only a medium grade, but this blue color is extremely elegant, wrapped on her body, looking at it from a distance, like smoke, just with her jade-white monofilament skirt. If she remembers correctly, the most popular yarns in Yongzhou are Wu yarn and dark flower yarn, which are more gorgeous than light yarn, but the sense of elegance is inferior to light yarn.

It's just a pity that her father's goods this time don't have such materials, but it will be next summer's matter if the light yarn is very popular in Yongzhou. Mo Li thought about it and sighed in her heart, although this is the case, but even if the light gauze is not more expensive than silk brocade and other things, the price is not low, if it is purchased in large quantities, with the current situation of her family, the funds are not good at all, and Han Sidao's side ......

"Girl, do you have anything else to prepare?" was thinking about it in her heart, but Hongdou asked but pulled back her thoughts, Mo Li had no choice but to smile, shook her head and walked out. Now is not the time to think about this, today's main battlefield is in the Xie family, and I don't know what surprises there will be.

"My cousin is so good today, is this my uncle's new material?" Before Mo Li walked to Mrs. Mo, she met Xue Lin, and the other party walked up with an affectionate face when she looked at her, and reached out and gently stroked her clothes.

"You came out of the old lady?" Mo Li pulled back his sleeve and glanced at her.

"Yes, I heard that my cousin is going out again today, so I came over to have a look." Xue Lin walked side by side with Mo Li as she spoke, and continued, "I heard that the Xie family has been very remarkable since its ancestors, and now there are several official masters, and there are also those who have been knighted, even the young masters of their family are also all fond of reading, and I heard that their courtyard is even more beautiful than the imperial garden in the palace......

Mo Li glanced at Xue Lin: "Why haven't I heard so much, you are well-informed, by the way, did your brother come to you last night?" Can I help you? ”

"Well, nothing special, just come and see me." Xue Lin immediately froze, a trace of discomfort flashed in her eyes, but she quickly covered it up. Then she bit her lip, grabbed Mo Li's sleeve flatteringly, and begged with a smile: "Can my cousin take me over today to open my eyes, I will listen to my cousin for anything in the future." ”

"The old lady Xie of the Xie family just invited the old lady to come over to catch up, I am just an accompaniment, how can I just bring someone over, so I won't be said to be rude." Mo Li tugged at the corners of her mouth, glanced at Xue Lin, and said, "But there will always be a chance for you to get to know more people in the future, if it leaves a bad impression on people at the first time, it is not appropriate, do you say?" ”

"It's still my cousin's thoughtfulness, so I'll listen to my cousin." As soon as Mo Li's words fell, Xue Lin nodded with a smile, and there was no trace of unhappiness on her face.

After Xue Lin bypassed the partition wall and returned to the west chamber, Mo Li frowned slightly, but the red bean on the side said puzzledly: "What's wrong with my cousin today?" How about making such a request? ”

"She's fourteen." Mo Li said lightly and continued to walk forward. The Yang family proposed to withdraw from the family, and today grandma took her to Xie's house for a banquet, and it is estimated that Xue Lin thought that grandma was going to find another family for herself, so she also moved her mind. In the past, she had pity for Lin's early loss of her mother, so she always took care of her on weekdays, and later learned that her cousin was more calculating and ruthless than anyone else.

If it weren't for the fact that she had a play in Xie's house today, and she didn't want any accidents, she felt that it would be a good idea to bring Xue Lin over, so maybe she could cut off Han Sidao's help in advance.

……

"When will my sister come back?" When he was about to leave the house with Mrs. Mo's arm, Mo Xue followed behind and grabbed Mo Li's clothes and asked.

Mo Li immediately let go of Old Lady Mo's arm, turned around and touched Mo Xuefen's cheek and said, "You write twenty pieces of the ten words that were taught to you that day, and my sister will almost come back." ”

"I don't want to practice calligraphy at home by myself, I want to go too." Mo Xue's big eyes flickered as she looked at Mo Li, whispered, and then went to pull Old Lady Mo's robe and said, "Xue'er is also going with grandma." ”

"Cher is obedient." Zhu hurriedly walked over and grabbed Mo Xue's hand, but Old Lady Mo suddenly laughed, "It's okay, then bring Xue'er with you." ”

Mo Xue's eyes lit up, and Zhu Shi was a little uneasy and said: "Old lady, this is not good, then the Xie family ......"

"What's the matter, after all, Mrs. Xie also said that she wanted to meet my little granddaughter, and I just brought it over to her today." As soon as Mrs. Mo spoke, she asked Mother Liu to change Mo Xue's clothes, and she left immediately.

The Zhu family has not yet understood Mrs. Mo's intentions, but Mo Li, who was standing on the side, already knew in his heart that Mo Xue was already six years old, and she was born so likable, from now on, she will occasionally take it out, and there will be more ways to choose in the future. That's it...... Mo Li frowned slightly, what her grandmother chose for Mo Xue back then was just an ordinary family, could it be that she really took a fancy to the Xie family now? It's just that according to her understanding of the Xie family, it is impossible for the other party to look down on a small businessman like them, or does grandma just want to use the Xie family to see more of other people's families, and have other plans?

Zhu pondered for a while, and finally came to his senses, that is, he remembered Xue Lin, and hurriedly said: "This is leaving Xue Lin at home alone, do you want to ......?"

"This is the first time I've passed, so it's not good to bring her with me." Old Mrs. Mo looked at these two worrying granddaughters, and shook her head after thinking about it, "After all, we will have to communicate more in the future, and there is no need to worry about this time, besides, her father and brother are here, we can't manage it too widely, maybe they have plans in their own hearts." ”

Not long after, Mrs. Mo led her granddaughter into her carriage, and Hongyu followed.

It's just that when she went out from the second gate, Mo Liwan turned around, and suddenly saw a goose-yellow voice flashing from the shadow wall, she paused, looked at it for a while before retracting her gaze, and went out with Mrs. Mo.

After they were all gone, Xue Lin walked out from behind the shadow wall, and left there before anyone noticed it, and went to Aunt Xue's room.

"I'm right, is it true that the old lady took her two granddaughters but didn't take you? Your aunt is not a good person who can think of you. Aunt Xue had just finished drinking a bowl of almond juice, and was holding a handkerchief into the corner of her mouth, and after listening to Xue Lin, she snorted.

Xue Lin didn't speak, and Aunt Xue continued: "Don't always think that you are a sensitor, you must know that your mother sent you over that day and gave you a large sum of silver, but I saw it with my own eyes, your aunt will not be able to use half of your life to support you." Besides, if I hadn't helped her serve her master, she would have been so comfortable. Hmph, it's stingy, it's just that on weekdays, relatives occasionally take a few pieces of cloth to tailor and wear, so she puts on a face, and I don't know who to show it! ”

"I heard from my brother yesterday that my uncle's business has not been good recently, so let's think about other ways, my sister-in-law will find an opportunity to inquire about how much money my uncle still has in his hand......"

Just as Xue Lin was gossiping with Aunt Xue, Old Lady Mo's carriage had stopped at the gate of Xie Mansion. After the grandparents got out of the car, Ah Sheng, under the signal of the people of the Xie Mansion, squeezed the carriage into a canopy BMW incense workshop, and then Mrs. Mo and Mo Li and others stepped into the gate of the Xie family under the guidance of the servants of the Xie Mansion.
