"I see, you go down." Xue nodded at the housekeeper and sent her away.

Sanniang and Xue's steps that were originally going to cross the courtyard stopped.

"Sanniang, do you see if this is a coincidence or ......" Xue frowned.

Sanniang saw that there was obvious worry in Xue's eyes, so she comforted softly: "Maybe it's really just a guest, instead of speculating here and messing around, it's better to wait for that person to enter the mansion and know at first sight." ”

Xue smiled bitterly: "What you said makes sense, you know if a person is a ghost, so why should I scare myself?" ”

Sanniang smiled and took Xue's arm: "So I can't leave for a while, why don't you accompany my mother to clean up the back West Chamber?" ”

The Xue family naturally didn't want Sanniang to leave at this time, so the two of them went back to the inner courtyard.

The east and west compartments of the backyard are very spacious, and they were originally used as warehouses. When the Sun family came over the year before last, the Xue family vacated the main house in order to arrange for the Sun family, and she and Wang Dong moved to the back west chamber to live, and the back west chamber was rearranged once at that time.

After the Sun family left Beijing, although they moved back, the furniture in the east chamber did not move, and it was easy to clean up, but it was just a matter of replacing the mattress with a new mattress and adding or subtracting some utensils.

instructed Agarwood to lead the maids to dismantle the bed tent, bedspread, and back. Xue and Sanniang still returned to the main room, and the two chatted about some family things while drinking tea.

Until before, I sent the maid who was guarding the second gate to come in and report that a carriage had arrived at the door.

Xue looked at Sanniang, Sanniang put down the tea bowl in her hand, got up and said with a smile: "Since my father said that it is a distinguished guest, then let's go and greet you." lest you lose the courtesy. ”

Xue Shi naturally agreed.

Sanniang asked the mother-in-law and maids of the Xue family to follow, and the group went to the second gate in a mighty way.

Seven or eight carriages stopped at the gate of the Wang family, enclosing the entrance of the alley, which was not spacious. One wears a red carved silk and white butterfly with a patterned placket, and an indigo twig-patterned brown-edged skirt. A peony bun, a whole set of gold and jade heads, and a very magnificent woman turned around from the carriage.

Sanniang and Xue couldn't help but be stunned when they saw her face.

The woman also saw Xue and Sanniang at the door at a glance. A bright smile immediately appeared on his face, and he walked over with his head held high: "Third Mrs. Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Xue Ruyu?" It took Xue a long time to react.

The person who came was Xue Ruyu, who had already married to Tianjin Wei.

Xue Ruyu glanced Xue up and down, covered her mouth and smiled: "Third Lady Wang looks good." It stands to reason that she is Xue's cousin, but she has never treated Xue as a sister, and she also called the third lady of Xue's Wang when they met.

Xue's attitude towards her is not strange, after Xue Ruyu got married. Her husband's family, the Chen family in Tianjin, had a relationship with the Xue family during the New Year's Festival, but Xue Ruyu, the main owner, didn't even say a word.

Xue Shi was a little surprised by her sudden arrival, but he still nodded and smiled: "Cousin is doing well, what about Auntie?" Didn't I come with you? ”

Xue Ruyu's eyes rolled. The smile was a little ill-intentioned: "What is my mother here for?" It's enough to have me. As for whether I'm doing well...... Of course it's good, it's not good! Especially after today, thinking that the person I hate is going to be unlucky, I'm afraid I'm going to wake up laughing from my dreams! ”

Xue Shi frowned and looked at Sanniang on the side.

Sanniang's eyes were cast on the carriages behind Xue Ruyu, she noticed that the carriage at the front had not yet come down, and the carriage curtain had just moved, and someone was secretly looking here.

"It's not nice to be stuck in the doorway and talk, mother. Let's invite Aunt Xue to come in and talk. Sanniang glanced at Xue Ruyu with a smile, "Aunt Xue didn't come by herself, right?" ”

Xue Ruyu looked at Sanniang, thinking about the few losses she had suffered in front of her, and her heart was itching with hatred. With a "hum", he turned and headed for the first carriage.

She deliberately said loudly through the curtain of the car: "I originally thought that someone would come and invite you before you got out of the car." If she doesn't want to be self-realised, then come down. ”

Xue and Sanniang looked at the carriage silently.

There seemed to be some noise in the carriage, and after a while, the curtain of the carriage opened, and a little maid of thirteen or fourteen years old jumped out of it.

Immediately after the little maid got out of the carriage, she turned to help the people in the carriage, and a slender and thin hand stretched out of the carriage, put it on the little maid's wrist, and then poked out a pale and delicate face.

At the moment of seeing this face, except for those who originally came with Xue Ruyu, the faces of the rest of the people showed stunned looks, and everyone's eyes began to explore back and forth on the faces of the people who came and the Xue family, and even Sanniang, who had always been calm, couldn't help but be stunned.

And Xue has been standing on the spot since the woman appeared.

The woman who came out of the carriage was not powdered, and wore a very ordinary printed blue cloth gown, such as Yun Qing silk wrapped in a cloth towel of the same material as the gown, and there was not a single ornament on her body, and she was dressed no different from those women on the street who were not well-off.

But even her posture of getting off the carriage is beautiful, noble, and people can't take their eyes off. Every move shows her good background and upbringing.

And this woman, she has a face that is very similar to Xue's.

It's not that there are differences.

There is another cinnabar mole on Xue's forehead, and this woman does not have it.

After Xue gave birth to Qi Niang, her body was much plumper than when she was a girl before, but this woman was very thin.

Xue is only in his early twenties, and his skin is crystal clear, which is the time for bright colors. Although the woman's appearance was good, the traces of age on her face mercilessly left evidence of her actual age, and her complexion was a little dull and rough, she should be in her thirties.

Despite this, after seeing the faces of the two, no one will suspect that there must be a close blood relationship between the two.

After the woman got out of the carriage, her eyes stayed on Xue's body, and her expression was a little indescribably complicated.

Sanniang had already guessed the identity of this woman, she glanced at Xue Shi and sighed in her heart.

At this time, a majestic male voice said, "What are you doing blocking the door?" ”

Everyone turned their heads and saw that Wang Dong didn't know when he came back, and he was frowning and standing aside looking at the people at the door.

Everyone was busy saluting him.

Wang Dong saw that Sanniang was also there, and nodded: "You're back?" Then he turned to Xue Shi and said, "Let's welcome the guests into the house first, what does the pestle look like at the door?" ”

Xue lowered his head and said softly: "Yes, master." ”

At this time, the woman had also come over with Xue Ruyu's support, looked at Xue Shi and said, "Are you ...... Sister Feng? ”

Xue Shi moved his lips and didn't know what to say, but Xue Ruyu had already preemptively "giggled" and laughed: "Sister Mei Xin, do you still remember this little girl?" ”

Xue's face was pale, and he bowed his head and said nothing. Sanniang, who was standing next to her, felt her hands trembling.

Sanniang grabbed Xue's arm and smiled at Xue Mei: "Aunt Xue, please, my mother is very happy to know that you are coming, and she has personally led someone to clean up the place, you can go with us to take a look." If there is anything that is not right, just mention it to the person who is waiting. Since you and your mother are sisters, you are the distinguished guests of the Wang family, but don't see the outside. ”

Xue also knew that he was being watched by many people now, and he couldn't lose face, and when he saw Sanniang rounding the field for her, he nodded hurriedly and said, "What Sanniang said is, Xue ...... Sister please. ”

Wang Dong, who had already walked a few steps, turned around and smiled softly at Xue Meixin: "You really don't have to see outside, come in, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Xue Meixin bowed her head and obediently followed Xue and Wang Dong into the mansion.

Because Wang Dong also came in, the group went to the main room first.

Sanniang knew that the Xue family must be in a mood now, and she couldn't take care of it. On her behalf, she instructed Mama Zhang to go outside and direct people to move Xue Meixin and Xue Ruyu's luggage to the back west chamber. Let the maids serve hot tea and snacks.

After the host and guest had been seated, there was a moment of silence in the room.

Wang Dong sat on top with a cup of hot tea and stood still, Xue and Xue Meixin secretly looked at each other, but Xue Ruyu looked left and right excitedly.

In the end, Wang Dong put the tea bowl in his hand on the table at hand, and made a soft noise, breaking the silence, he muttered for a moment and was about to speak, but there was a burst of cheerful laughter outside.

The eyes of everyone in the room were drawn out.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a tall and straight man walked in with a child less than a year old in his arms and a girl in his hand.

But it was Wang Jing who came with Xuan Xiaoyi and Qi Niang.

Xuan Xiaoyi hugged Wang Jing's neck and smiled very happily, and Qi Niang was still making trouble: "Brother hug!" Brother hug! ”

Wang Dong reprimanded with a straight face: "What kind of rule is this!" ”

Qi Niang was so frightened that she immediately silenced and hid behind Wang Jing.

When Sanniang stepped forward to pick up Xuan Xiaoyi, Xuan Xiaoyi was still holding Wang Jing and refused to let go.

Wang Jing hurriedly pulled Qi Niang out to salute.

Wang Dong has always been serious in front of his children, so Qi Niang is very afraid of him. Xue waited for Qi Niang to salute, and then asked the nurse to take him down.

Wang Dong glanced at Xuan Xiaoyi, saw him lying in Sanniang's arms obediently, and grinned at him when he saw him, revealing eight cute little teeth, his expression couldn't help but ease, and he didn't ask Sanniang to take the child out to the nurse.

"From today onwards, Miss Xue will live in the back west wing." Wang Dong saw that all the people who should have come had come, so he announced.

"Third brother, I'm ......" Xue Mei heard this, and she wanted to say a little and stopped.

Wang Dong shook his head at her, and said softly, "Listen to my arrangement for the time being." ”
