Chapter Forty-Six: Keeping the Empty Room Alone
"Hmm!" Xie Qi responded lightly, his expression was so calm that people couldn't see what he was thinking. And Lu Xueling naturally misunderstood that she was the same as her, thinking that Lu Xueyi was stupid and stupid.
But it's strange to say that she has been so stupid for many years, but she has become a little sober because of a serious illness that fell into the water some time ago. Now not only do I know how to schem, but I can also read words and feelings, and a few days ago I actually framed me for stealing her bracelet. It was clearly given to me by him! actually ran to the old man and the old lady to complain. Lu Xueling was a little angry and continued to complain.
Xie Qi felt a little pain in his temples when he heard this, and he really wanted to slap this nagging woman out. Don't look at her on the surface she is knowledgeable, but in fact, she is rude and willful and doesn't understand the rules.
Doesn't she know that Mo chews her lips and tongue behind people's backs? is really a concubine, and she has no education. This good daughter raised by Aunt Xia really surprised him.
Xie Qi glanced at Lu Xueling with an uncertain expression, and suddenly could guess that the so-called discussion with him about the old lady's birthday today was probably instigated by Aunt Xia!
Lu Xueling continued to crack and pour beans like talking about Lu Xueyi's old things, and Xie Qi's hand hidden under the wide sleeve had already clenched into a fist. I'm going crazy, why did I forget to bring my brain today, and actually let this woman in?
Mo Zhu heard it clearly at the door, and from time to time he glanced at Gongzi's forbearant face, and secretly wiped his sweat. I'm really afraid that he can't help it for a while, and throws these two girls out rudely, but how can it be good? After all, they are now living under the fence of others, and if they do that kind of thing, it will hurt the peace.
Mo Zhu was so anxious that he didn't dare to go in without permission, disturbing the conversation between the two. Although most of the sons were silent, it was the second girl who was chattering non-stop.
"I'm back!" From afar, they could hear the hearty laughter coming from outside the courtyard gate, and Mo Zhu and Xie Qi were overjoyed. sighed secretly, thank God, someone came to the rescue!
Qu Yuan strode into the courtyard, and saw Mo Zhu holding a swordsman outside the door, looking in from time to time. When he saw himself, he was as excited as if he had seen a savior, and he couldn't help frowning.
"What's going on?" Qu Yuan motioned to Mo Zhu with his eyes and asked him to talk about the current situation, because he also heard the babbling woman's voice inside.
Mo Zhu watched in private that no one was staring at him, so he whispered into Qu Yuan's ear and told him the ins and outs of the matter. "So...... So ......"
"Oh? Just this matter, just a few words, why bear it. Such a noisy woman is simply disturbing! Qu Yuan said unceremoniously, but Mo Zhu shook his head helplessly. He doesn't have the guts, not to mention that the son has never spoken, what qualifications does he have!
"Qi'er, are there guests in the room?" Qu Yuan deliberately raised his voice, stood outside the door and shouted, clearly for Lu Xueling.
"Master, are you back?" Xie Qi wiped a cold sweat quietly, and hurriedly got up and arched his hand towards the door.
"I've just come back from there, and I need to discuss some things with you. Come to the study, I have something to say to you! Qu Yuan didn't like Lu Xueling himself, and directly used his master's identity to call Xie Qi away.
"Hey, Brother Xie......" Lu Xueling still wanted him to talk to him more, but who knew that Qu Yuan outside the door called again.
Qu Yuan shouted at the top of his voice, "Xie Qi! What are you still grinding about, the situation is urgent, and you must make a decision immediately! ”
"I'm sorry, the master asked me to discuss the matter, this matter will be over today, Mozhu will send the second girl for me." Xie Qi clenched his fists and strode out of the room, feeling a little happier in his heart.
"Brother Xie, will I come back to you tomorrow?" Lu Xueling naturally didn't want to let go of the opportunity to cultivate her feelings, so she hurriedly asked Xie Qi about the arrangements for the second day.
"There may be something out of the house tomorrow, let's talk about it later!" Xie Qi stumbled and almost stumbled on the threshold. The footsteps were fast, and in a blink of an eye, he followed Qu Yuan.
Mo Zhu held back a smile, the son just lost his temper, and he was really afraid of the two girls' pestering skills. "Second girl, please, Childe asked me to send you!" Mo Zhu lowered his head, endured a smile, and his face became slightly serious.
"Hmph, I'll go back by myself!" Lu Xueling said a little angrily, Brother Xie didn't give him a letter just now, it seems that he is hiding from himself? Even this janitor actually dared to look at himself and joke, hum, we'll see later.
Mo Zhu sent away the reluctant Lu Xueling, and just closed the gate of the courtyard in one fell swoop. Gasping with his back against the door. Scared him to death, the two girls' faces became so fast, and they were still smiling, but they were like seeing something disgusting to themselves.
"Phew, I've been annoyed by my son's long time, and I really think that someone likes to listen, why don't you have eyesight?" Mo Zhu couldn't help but complain, and then hummed a little song and walked around the yard happily.
After Lu Xueling went back, she was naturally called by Aunt Xia for questioning. "My son has a harvest today, so how does Gongzi Xie treat you?" Aunt Xia asked a little impatiently.
"Brother Xie treated me well before, but then he was called away by his troublesome master. I wanted to ask him out and talk again tomorrow, but I was pushed away. Lu Xueling pulled the little handkerchief in distress, looking a little sad.
"Don't be in a hurry, I guess that Gongzi Xie still has a good impression of you, but there are many good things, don't be in a hurry. You have to take his heart slowly and let him know that you are wholeheartedly good to him. Don't play your little character in front of him, the poet and the etiquette lady often teach you, don't forget! Aunt Xia patted the back of Lu Xueling's hand and said bitterly, a man will always be attracted by her gentleness and thoughtfulness.
"Okay, the child can save it!" Lu Xueling went back to the room with a smile, looked in the mirror, and felt more and more that she looked moving, and couldn't help but be happy. "Brother Xie will definitely like me!"
That night, Master Lu stayed in Aunt Xia's garden again, with light gauze and thin tents, and the spring was boundless. Even the cold wind of this cold winter could not extinguish the desire and fire between the two. Master Lu looked at Aunt Xia, who was in a variety of postures and charming nature, and asked for it several times, and the two of them fell asleep.
Liu Qingqing asked the maid to light the lantern and stayed outside the door for half a night, but no one came. My heart became colder and colder, and finally I couldn't help but send someone to ask where my grandfather was staying tonight.
"Back to the master, sir...... Master...... He ......, "The maid kneeling on the ground spoke a little hesitantly, and he didn't say a reason today.
"If you have something to say, I won't go to you. Say! Liu Qingqing sat on the main seat, gathered the fox coat, and looked at the maid condescendingly, with an expression of ice.
"The lord stayed at Aunt Xia's place today, I heard about it...... I just turned off the lights, and I guess I've fallen asleep. The maid knelt on the cold ground, but her vest broke out in a cold sweat, and she trembled with fright.
"Humph!" Liu Qingqing swept the carefully prepared refreshments on the table to the ground. "Get out!"
The maid climbed out with relief, secretly glad that she had escaped tonight. "Thank God, Bodhisattva bless! I made it through the night without incident. ”
Liu Qingqing's heart was even more unhappy, she was still newly married, so she was left out in the cold. Now the lord has taken a concubine again. Even so, Aunt Xia is naturally spoiled, which makes her the face of the housewife?
The more Liu Qingqing thought about it, the more chilling she became, and two tears slipped down the corners of her eyes to the ground, but she didn't notice it. "Ahem......" A cold wind poured in, and she couldn't help coughing a few times.
If she can't wait for someone every night, what can she do? I married her in just to support the scene, and if she knew that there was such an ending, she would rather not have come in at the beginning. Liu Qingqing wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Even if she can't get his heart, then she can enjoy the pleasure brought to her by the rights of this mother.
After Liu Qingqing extinguished the light herself, Kazui lay on the bed, and could only endure the cold big bed and endless loneliness. Another sleepless night, she... I'm getting used to it!
Lu Xueyi helped the old lady sew gloves every night, from the initial semi-finished product to the finished product, which always dissatisfied her. In desperation, I dismantled it again and sewed the stitches more delicately, even if it was still a little messy, but it was much easier than when I first started making it.
Of course, the most important thing is that there are people around her to teach, and she still has some comprehension ability. While groping and studying, I got a seven, seven, eight, eight.
"I'm still not satisfied, so let's try it for myself first." Lu Xueyi muttered, and sewed gloves thinly by the light.
Mama Qiuping on the side was also sarcastic about her own things, and from time to time she would give her a few words to guide her. At first, I didn't know what he was going to do, and at that time I laughed at her for messy stitches and no talent for being a female celebrity. But when I learned her intentions, I was a little impressed.
The old lady has always valued this child, and really did not lose her eyes, and even sent herself over to guide her. Mama Qiuping's hands and feet were quickly embroidered with a large pattern of rich peonies, and from time to time she had to take a look at Lu Xueyi's situation.
Mingyue and Mingzhu were by Lu Xueyi's side, sipping melon seeds and drinking tea from time to time. Occasionally, a few jokes pop out of his mouth, causing everyone to laugh.
"The eldest girl's craftsmanship is getting more and more sophisticated, and I boasted that the female worker can finally get it, and it seems that the eldest girl will surpass me in a while." Mingyue bit the beans crunchyly, and said with a flattering face.
"Poor mouth, if I can surpass your craft, I will have a job in the future, and I won't have to worry about my life!" In the interval between Lu Xueyi's words, she actually made another mistake, and couldn't help but scream.
"You talk a lot, the big girl is busy with her hands, what are you talking about?" Mingzhu glanced at Mingyue angrily, and hurriedly went over to check Lu Xueyi's fingers, for fear that she would prick herself again.
