Chapter 011: The Drizzle Begins to Stop
When Sao Hong heard this, he dared to take out a handkerchief and wipe his face, and said in a trembling voice: "If you go back to the county lord, the maid put Yu Pei behind the clean room, and then according to the county lord's instructions, she walked around outside, and when she was about to go back to the flower hall, she was splashed with tea by a little maid. The little maid begged for mercy vigorously, and took the maid to the clean room of the next person to change clothes, and the maid was afraid of being rude in front of the county lord, so she went with her. Results ......"
She shuddered and stopped, not daring to continue.
Guo Yuan's eyes breathed fire, and he hated to pull out a hairpin to prick people again.
The next thing is really easy to guess, Sweep Hong must have been stumped in the clean room by someone, and the person who made the plan, needless to say, must be Chen Ying.
Seeing this, Xianfang on the side had the courage to come over and hit Sao Hong twice, and said sharply: "Are you a wooden head?" If someone pulls you, you go? If people want you to die, will you die? Do you still have the face to cry? ”
Sweep Hong didn't dare to speak, only trembling on the ground, tears flowing, and a small piece of green felt quickly wetted.
"That's it, Xiefang, you clean up for her, get out of the car and find her a fence to wear after a while, I'm afraid this face will have to be raised for a while." The eldest princess finally spoke.
With Fang's heart, she breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly pressed the red kowtow to thank her, and took her to the corner to clean up.
The eldest princess took Guo Yuan in her arms and said softly: "You really have to change your temperament, just a little girl, if it doesn't please your eyes, just ask your mother and mother-in-law to beat it, why do it yourself?" ”
Guo Yuan's eyes turned red again, and she choked up: "My daughter just can't be angry." That Chen San is really treacherous, and his daughter is really ......"
She couldn't say any more, and tears welled up in her eyes.
The eldest princess has only one daughter under her knees, and she really loves more than treasures, and when she sees her crying again, where is she willing to blame her for half a sentence, hugging her and screaming heartily, and promising her a lot of things, the atmosphere in the carriage is relaxed again.
Not to mention how the carriage of the princess's mansion was so kind and delicate, but the carriage of the Guogong Mansion was quiet at this time.
After Xu got into the car, he didn't say a word, just sat on a pillow that played ink and silk, closed his eyes and recuperated, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he seemed to be extremely tired.
There were only Chen Ying and her in the car, and there was not even a maid who poured water. And Chen Lu and the others were driven to another car by the Xu family, led by the third wife, the Shen family.
Chen Ying guessed that the car should be more lively, after all, Shen's temperament is there, even if she has nothing to do, she can have an accident, not to mention that it is the long room that is ugly today, and it is the second room that offends the eldest princess, and the third room is quiet, and she is happy to see the excitement.
The biggest advantage of watching the fire from the other side is that the fire can't burn on yourself, so the excitement becomes more and more interesting.
When I returned to the Guogong Mansion, it was already getting late, and the rain stopped at some point, and the veins broke through the clouds and threw them into the earth, spreading out into a broad golden veil.
Xu Shi and others stopped to change the sedan chair, and the green yarn sedan chair entered from the side door, passed through the courtyard all the way, and finally stopped in front of the hanging flower door, and everyone fell off the sedan chair.
The two red lanterns on the weeping flower door have been lit, and the golden red light contains warmth and burns like flames.
"The third brother and sister think they're tired, so please go back first, and I'll take a few of them to say hello to the old lady." Xu said to Shen very politely.
"This ...... Not really. Shen didn't want to leave at all, his eyes were blazing, and he was burning with excitement: "You all went, but I didn't go, the old lady still thought something was wrong with me." ”
"With me, the old lady won't blame." Xu Shi didn't miss a word, but the smile on his face was very soft, and he looked like he was good at business: "The old lady is happy to be quiet, it's not good if there are too many people, the third brother and sister will go, if there is anything, come back and ask the second girl and the fourth girl is the same." ”
Chen Xiang and Chen Han were going to see Mrs. Xu, not that Xu intended to leave the third room, Xu's words had already been said very thoroughly.
Shen was unhappy, but he could only reluctantly respond, and when he left, his face was not very good-looking.
In the history of more than ten years of confrontation with Xu, she has never won, which has aroused her fighting spirit more and more, the more frustrated and braver, every time she loses, she will come back again after a few days, Xu has long been accustomed to this.
After sending the Shen family away, the Xu family took Chen Yi and the others to Mingyuan Hall.
Mingyuan Hall is the residence of Mrs. Xu, located in the central axis of the mansion, three bright and two dark five main rooms, plus the ear room, hugging the building and the warm pavilion, the extremely standard upper room layout, the layout of the courtyard is also square and broad, not messy, even the dust in the blue brick cracks are wiped clean.
Mrs. Xu had already gotten the letter, and ordered the housekeeper's mother Liu Baoshan's family to guard outside the door, as soon as she saw Xu's party, Liu Baoshan's family greeted her with a smile on her face, and said with a smile: "The eldest lady and the girls came by coincidence, and the old lady is looking for someone to talk to relieve her boredom, but it happens that you have arrived, and the old lady will be happy." ”
Although Xu Shi was full of worries, he had to put on a smiling face at this moment, and said jokingly: "We will have dinner in a while, let's take a look at the old lady and leave, we won't disturb the old lady's meal again, and my mother will go back to the old lady like this." ”
"The eldest lady just loves to laugh." Liu Baoshan's eyes narrowed into slits with a smile, and he saluted a few girls one by one, and turned to lead the way: "The old lady is waiting in the house, and the slave will lead you over." ”
Between the jokes, a few people went to the door of the main house surrounded by the maids, and everyone was silent here, and Liu Baoshan's family stepped forward to personally raise the door curtain and let several masters in.
The room has not yet been lit, but it is not dark, the window paper is full of golden light and shadow, the sun is setting in the west, and the room is quiet.
Stepping over the hanging flying cover of openwork vines, turning a six-fan screen of sandalwood inlaid with glazed pine cranes and extending the years, everyone silently entered the east room, and Xu took the women to salute.
"Get up, sit down." Old Madam Xu's attitude was very kind, and she raised her hand slightly, and Liu Baoshan's family immediately bent down and retreated with the maids and servants.
Everyone sat down according to their seniority, and Xu didn't delay much, and said in a low voice: "I still want to ask the old lady to forgive my sins, my daughter-in-law shouldn't have come over in such a hurry, so she shouldn't have said it in front of the children." It's just that today's matter is not small, and the daughter-in-law does not dare to specialize, so she has to ask the old lady to show her, and these children must also be present. ”
Mrs. Xu sighed "hmm" and did not say anything.
Xu turned his head to look at Chen Xiang and said softly: "Second girl, good boy, you come and tell your grandmother about today's affairs." ”
Chen Xiang may have been instructed a long time ago, and he was not surprised when he heard the words at this time, but he seemed a little nervous, thinking that it was because he wanted to reply to Mrs. Xu.
