Chapter 23: Overseer, I'll Fetch You Tomorrow
"Zhang Yi, take her down to change her clothes."
The adjutant with the national character face immediately stepped forward and bowed to Xiao Meiren, "Miss Xiao, please." β
Xiao Meiren is a little regretful, this overseer really doesn't know how to flirt, and he doesn't have the slightest charm.
She glanced at the eyes around her, one by one, gently, with a smile, not the slightest inappropriate.
"Then I'll come back to the Overseers when I'm dressed." Xiao Meiren said softly.
This sentence simply confirmed the relationship between her and Gu Tingyu.
Some people have even begun to make up for it, could the adulterer of Miss Xiao who was caught in the Xiao family be Gu Dujun?
Could it be that this incident is too scandalous, so the Xiao family and the Overseer's Mansion urgently replaced the young marshal's fiancΓ©e with Miss Xiao Er to save face?
So, the Overseer, who has not been close to women for many years, finally has a wife this time?
It's just that isn't it said that the Overseers were injured in a certain part because of the war, and they couldn't be humane?
With such a thought, those who looked at Xiao Meiren had different eyes.
Xiao Meiren doesn't care.
"What's wrong?"
When she passed by Mrs. Gu, she stopped Zhang Yi and asked him with a smile.
She also saw the scene just now, although a famous lady should not have such an abrupt behavior, but it was just an accident, Xiao Meiren handled it very well, and she didn't stay on her youngest son too much, it was just an accidental accident.
"Miss Xiao's clothes have a hole, so the Overseer asked me to take Miss Xiao to change clothes." Zhang Yi replied respectfully.
Old Madam Gu thought about it for a while, and instructed the maid behind her, "Take Miss Xiao to Miss Xiao's room." β
The maid was stunned for a moment, and Zhang Yi gasped.
"My eldest granddaughter is about the same size as you, you go to her house to pick out a skirt, she is studying in the West now, and she is not there." Old Lady Gu said to Xiao Meiren with a smile again.
Xiao Meiren nodded, smiling well-behaved, "Hmm." β
She followed the maid out of the antechamber.
And as soon as she left, Mei Xiang also came out of Xiao Anyuan, with a resentful look on her face, and when she arrived at the old lady, she directly pointed out Xiao Anyuan's despicable behavior.
"Old lady, the clothes taken off from Xiao Anyuan have the flirting medicine powder used by the prostitutes in those nasty halls, and when they are stained with water, they will attack faster when they touch the skin, and now she is lying on the bed complaining!"
Mei Xiang didn't look down on the women of the Xiao family in the first place, so she exaggerated when she seized the opportunity.
"That Xiao Anyuan knew that she had no face, so she refused to come over, and shrunk in the room, Aunt Zhu made people look at her too much, and didn't let her run out."
After Mei Xiang finished speaking, she also looked around, but she didn't see Xiao Meiren.
Old Mrs. Gu's face sank, and she really had to think about this marriage to her grandson.
"Old lady, the young ladies of the Xiao family are so faceless and skinless, the young marshal can't marry such a woman, and that Miss Xiao, I think she is trying to seduce the Overseers." Mei Xiang hesitated for a moment, but still said this.
Old Lady Gu said, "If she can really hook Ah Ting's heart, then I will worship the Bodhisattva." β
Mei Xiang pursed her mouth, "Old lady, you promised Mei Xiang ......"
Old Lady Gu smiled and patted Mei Xiang's hand, "If she can make Ah Ting enlightened, then it shouldn't be difficult for him to accept you." β
When Mei Xiang heard this, she was still unhappy, but in front of the old lady, she couldn't show it, and only showed a shy expression.
However, she had already thought about being the Overseer's wife, so how could she let Xiao Meiren take the lead?
Obviously, she has been in the Overseer's Mansion for many years, and she is also a childhood sweetheart with the Overseer.
Even if she is an aunt's wife, it should be made by Xiao Meiren's fox.
Mei Xiang pursed her lips.
"The heirs of the Overseer's Mansion are thin, and in the future, you all have to spread out more branches for the Overseer's Mansion!" Old Lady Gu smiled, thinking about it for a long time.
It's the marriage of Ah Chi and Xiao Anyuan, it's time to retreat.
The people who were close to the old lady all heard what Mei Xiang said in a loud voice just now, so everyone in this banquet hall knew about the second miss of the Xiao family.
Xiao Meiren walked very slowly, and the maid knew that Miss Xiao was the old lady's VIP, so she was very respectful all the way and did not urge.
"Miss Xiao, this is the eldest lady's wardrobe, these are custom-made by the eldest lady and have not been worn, these are worn by the eldest lady in the past."
The maid opened Gu Jinxiu's wardrobe and pointed to the dazzling array of clothes and said.
Among them, there are fashionable dresses, and there are also exquisite cheongsam.
Xiao Meiren had a unique eye, and chose a white cheongsam embroidered with red plums, with a pure white fox skin shawl.
[One Leaf Blind]: This dress is so unique, Zoe Planet doesn't have it.
[Audience No. 18]: This is called a cheongsam, and it outlines the graceful figure of a woman very moving.
[Audience No. 1]: I want to see the anchor put it on, ahhh......hhh Phew!
Xiao Meiren changed into a cheongsam and came out, and the maid's eyes were full of surprise, and she couldn't help but look at it several times.
She thought to herself, Miss Xiao is so beautiful, more beautiful than the most dazzling red glow in the sky.
The cheongsam with a white background makes Xiao Meiren even more white and beautiful, with a cold and elegant temperament.
Gu Tingyu had something to do temporarily, so he went back to where he lived.
He didn't bring his adjutant with him, he came back alone.
When Xiao Meiren came out, it happened that Gu Tingyu came back.
Gu Jinxiu's courtyard and Gu Tingyu's courtyard were adjacent to each other, so the two of them almost met like this, and after a few steps away, their sight touched.
As soon as the maid saw Gu Tingyu, her whole person became nervous, she shrunk her neck, and lowered her head, "Overseer." β
Xiao Meiren stood there lazily, she looked at Gu Tingyu and smiled, there were two shallow pear vortices at the corners of her lips, "Hey, Overseer." β
She was wearing a long cheongsam with plum blossoms on a white background, standing under the hundred-year-old red plum tree.
The golden sunlight fell on her face, and her whole being was bright, exuding a look that he had never seen before.
A gust of wind blew, and the red plum that bent her fingers fell on her snow-colored fox fur shawl, dotted with stars, and the charm was not as good as at this moment.
Gu Tingyu shook his eyes, but in an instant, his face became even more cold, he raised his legs and continued to walk over.
"Overseer!" Xiao Meiren tilted her head and stretched out her hand to stop him.
"Hmph." Gu Tingyu didn't bother to take care of her.
"I heard that there is a new play in the most popular pear orchard in Lucheng, let's go watch it together, okay?"
Xiao Meiren patted the red plum on her body, and stood in front of Gu Tingyu, her voice gentle and soft.
"No, no."
Gu Tingyu bypassed her, and the whole person had a chilling evil aura on his body, and ordinary people had already retreated when they saw him.
But Xiao Meiren didn't take the usual path, "Overseer, I'll pick you up tomorrow." β
