Chapter 6
Anfu is an old-style house with three entrances, antique, the path made of bluestone extends into the inner house, the maid Hong'er is cleaning up the flowers and plants in the patio, she saw An Rui come in, put down the scissors, and shouted: "Miss, Miss is back!" ”
Shan'er and Xiaojia rushed to hear the news and happily hugged her into the house.
As soon as she crossed the threshold, An Rui saw that her mother was coming out of the inner room, and a ray of sunlight shone on her mother's plain white cheongsam, and the embellished brocade threads shimmered brightly, reflecting a different charm.
After a long absence, seeing her relatives again, An Rui was happy in her heart, and called softly: "Mom." ”
"It's good to be back." Mrs. An took her hand lovingly, looked at it carefully for a while, and said: "Silly girl, if you are not satisfied with the marriage, you can say it, your father and I are the masters for you, why did you run to Shanghai without a sound, there is chaos outside, a girl's house, if there is anything good, how is it good!" ”
Looking back at her father, An Rui knew that she was at a loss, smiled and took a step back, opened her hands, turned around, and soothed: "Mom, didn't I come back with a good look?" ”
When Mrs. An saw that her daughter came back safe and sound, she naturally didn't delve into it anymore, but just pulled her daughter to ask this and that.
Thinking of the scene in the café that day, An Rui felt thrilling and interesting, but she kept silent in front of her parents, and only picked up the anecdotes on the road, Mrs. An listened to the novelty, but An's father looked sad, thinking of the marriage, thinking of the Fu family, sighed lightly, he said angrily: "Look at her, you are used to it, lawless." ”
The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, and the mother next to her stepped forward and asked, "Miss, how should you clean up the things you brought back?" ”
Hearing this, An Rui remembered and hurriedly said: "The foreign goods in Shanghai are all first-class, Mom, I bought some foreign cloth, perfume and brooch for you to give you a fresh picture." ”
She asked Xinyu to move a box in, and after opening it, An Rui showed the things one by one, she saw her father sitting next to her, picked up a brocade box, and said with a smile: "Dad, this is the old ginseng that my daughter bought, for you to replenish your body." ”
Father An glanced at the ginseng in the brocade box, knowing that his daughter was thinking about herself, he smiled and took the brocade box, he pretended to be a gesture, and coughed dryly: "Don't bring this thing next time, now the medicinal materials are checked tightly, don't be honest." ”
"Just this once, not the next one." An Rui smiled and took out another box and said, "I also brought a gift for Siming." She looked back, "Didn't he come over today?" ”
Mrs. An smiled and said: "It's really rude, no matter what Si Ming says, it's also your cousin, you Si Ming is long and short, so that others can hear what it looks like." She looked at her daughter lovingly, and said, "He heard that you came back today, so he went to the street to buy you your favorite steamed white cake." ”
Hearing this, An Rui tilted her body, hid in her mother's arms, and said playfully: "Well, the performance is good, it is worth me to bring him a gift from thousands of miles away." ”
Mrs. An smiled silently and rubbed her back lightly, "You, if you get cheap and sell well, Si Ming can stand you and get used to you." ”
"Mom."
Mrs. An hugged her and said with a smile: "Don't say anything, you go to the shower and change your clothes, and come back to eat." ”
Answering the call, An Rui walked into the inner courtyard, along the corridor, and into the bedroom, Shan'er had already prepared hot water, and Xinyu was packing the luggage she brought back.
After taking a shower, Xinyu had already put some jewelry back on the dresser for her, she sat down and combed her hair, and suddenly saw the scarf on the bedside, caressing it, thinking of his invitation, An Rui muttered to herself: Temple fair? Am I going? But, Jiangning Mansion is so big, where can I find him?! This man is really ...... Thinking of this, she rubbed her scarf sullenly.
In a daze, I suddenly heard Xinyu say: "Miss, the young master is here, the master invites you over." ”
"Oh, got it." She folded the scarf, rested it on the pillow, combed her hair, and went out.
In the side hall, Bai Siming was chatting with An Yidao, at that time, the sky was getting dark, and the wall lamp had already been lit up in the room, An Rui saw a familiar figure standing in the center of the hall, fluttering like a jade tree in the wind, she tiptoed forward, patted Bai Siming's left shoulder, and playfully hid to the right.
Bai Siming already knew her little tricks, but he was also happy to smile for Bo Hongyan, and said: "I originally thought that you would change when you went out, but as a result, the country is easy to change, and you still like to play with me like when you were a child!" ”
"I'd love to!" An Rui raised her face, both angry and angry.
"You kid is so insignificant, it's a shame that your cousin is not an outsider, where is there someone like you who chokes on words? Not a spark of decency. Mrs. An took her daughter's hand, her eyes were full of pampering, and she pretended to be angry and said, "Don't allow it next time." ”
"I see." An Rui deliberately prolonged her tone, looked at Bai Siming with a smile, pulled out the box behind her, and said, "Give, give you a gift." ”
Open it up and take a look, the pen? is still his favorite brand, Bai Siming looked at An Rui, and saw that she was wearing a Western-style dress, a very light smoky color, under the background of the lights, curling Tingting, he couldn't help but thank her.
Seeing him bowing his head, An Rui was stunned for a moment, smiled and deliberately quipped: "You're welcome, I bought it easily, if everyone has a gift, but you don't have it, wouldn't it be another trick for you to talk about it, saying that I am biased?" ”
Hearing this, the corners of Bai Siming's mouth raised slightly, and he didn't argue with her, and happily accepted the pen.
As they spoke, the servants had already cleaned up the dining room, and all kinds of delicacies were placed on the round table, and the four of them were just about to get up, when they heard a noise outside.
