Xiu'er as a concubine?
Xiao Jun was looking at the proud snow and cold plums. Hearing Mengxi shouting behind him:
"Second Master"
Awakened by Mengxi's scream, Xiao Jun turned his head and looked at her silently, he had a crazy urge at this time, and he wanted to step forward and hug her into his arms, telling her that he had treated her like that, and he regretted it! He regretted that he suffered in self-blame every day, telling her how much he loved her, telling her that without her in this life, he would wither and die. Mengxi's calm gaze allowed him to maintain the last shred of sanity, and in the end he didn't cross that step, before Xi'er didn't accept him, he did this, and it would only scare her away.
Mengxi was really frightened by the second master's gaze, she was used to seeing the second master's coldness, used to his anger, but she was not used to him like this, and in the face of such a second master, she couldn't face it calmly. There was a panic in her heart, which made her want to turn around and run away, but she forced herself to suppress the uneasiness in her heart, straightened her shoulders, and said:
"Second master, the concubine is packed up"
"Okay, Xi'er, let's go over now, it's too late, mother should be in a hurry"
After Xiao Jun finished speaking, he took a big step and walked out first. Mengxi and Zhiqiu, who followed behind, were suspicious, and the second master didn't ask about the book in the south house.
The cousin and the cousin-in-law both walked into the west ear room, which surprised Xiu'er, the aunt only ordered to invite the cousin over alone, and the cousin-in-law actually came over together, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, and she regained her calm in a blink of an eye, only to see that she didn't seem to see the cousin next to her cousin, she rushed to her cousin enthusiastically, grabbed her cousin's hand and wanted to cry, and said timidly:
"My cousin is finally back, my cousin is really ruthless, I haven't said a word to Xiu'er for nearly two years, I haven't even written a letter to Xiu'er, Xiu'er has written so many letters to my cousin, and my cousin hasn't replied to a single one. I didn't tell Xiu'er when I came back, but my aunt wrote to say that my cousin was back and picked up Xiu'er. ”
Seeing Xiu'er like this, Xiao Jun peeked at Mengxi beside him, and saw that she was still calm, unmoved, and sighed secretly in his heart, and pulled out his hand a little unnaturally and said:
"I haven't seen you for more than a year, my cousin has become a big girl, and she's so naughty, see who dares to marry you in the future, come, I've seen my cousin-in-law"
Xiu'er saw her cousin withdraw her hand, her face darkened, but then she pouted, and said to her cousin reluctantly:
"How naughty Xiu'er is, it's all cousin bullying Xiu'er, my cousin is really worried that Xiu'er won't be able to get married, so it's better to deal with marrying my cousin!"
When Xiao Jun heard this, he choked and kept coughing.
Depend on. This ancients also brought themselves a spare tire? This show girl can't be a comrade who crosses over, right?
Hearing this, Mengxi looked at Miss Xiu thoughtfully, this is an ancient coconut, she Li Mengxi has such an advanced mind, she doesn't dare to say this blatantly, she can say such a damaging word to the reputation of the girl's family, and she is also in front of other people's wives.
What do you mean, you want to give her a dismount?
peeking at the eldest lady sitting on the kang, I saw that she was looking at the second master and Xiu'er with a loving face, as if she was looking at her own son and daughter-in-law, and she didn't blame Xiu'er for misconduct in her words.
Mengxi slowly stepped forward to greet the eldest lady, Xiao Jun also stopped coughing, said hello to his mother, and sat down on the chair by the kang.
Mengxi sat on the chair on Xiao Jun's left hand, and Xiu'er sat obediently next to the eldest lady on the side of the kang. Only then did she see her cousin-in-law, and said:
"Hello cousin-in-law, it's been a few days"
Mengxi listened and said casually:
"My cousin is right, since the New Year, my cousin has not come, and I haven't seen it for a few days, not the second master is back, and I don't know when I will be able to see my cousin, my cousin is proficient in chess, piano, calligraphy and painting, and she is as beautiful as a flower, and she is also a talented woman who is difficult to find in the world. What more can the husband ask for, but I don't know if my cousin is willing to marry, if my cousin is willing, then my cousin can't wait to go to the old lady and beg for it."
The second master, who was drinking tea, heard this, squirted out a mouthful of tea, and sat there coughing violently.
What do you mean by this, let yourself be a concubine! Make yourself a vassal to her house!
The cousin-in-law's condescending words made the smart Xiu'er speechless. She is thick-skinned enough, but she really didn't say that she was willing to marry her cousin in front of her cousin, cousin and eldest wife, not to mention that her cousin-in-law who didn't open her eyes actually gave her the position of a concubine, how could she agree, she was going to be a wife!
If she doesn't agree, I'm afraid that my cousin will misunderstand that she has no intention of treating him, and it will hurt the heart of my amorous cousin, and if I misunderstand, it's not good. Dumbfounded for a while. Obsessively looking at my cousin, hoping that he would say something and do something to make amends.
The second master seemed to be suffering from some wind and cold, only coughing violently there, and couldn't even speak.
When the eldest lady saw it, she finally couldn't sit still, and reproached:
"The marriage event requires three media and six certificates, how can it be a child's family with a sentence that is decided, the second grandmother has been in the house for two years. Why are you still so ignorant of the rules, this second grandmother is a little abrupt, next time I won't like this"
The three media and six certificates refer to the wife's ceremony, thinking that the cousin should understand what the aunt means at this time, Xiu'er listened to the aunt's words, and her face showed a smile.
Seeing that the eldest lady was in trouble, in the face of this evil mother-in-law who hated her death, Mengxi really had no temper, nodded busily, and sat there dignifiedly, not speaking.
Xiao Jun on the side listened to his mother's words. frowned, and said secretly: Xiu'er, a girl's family, actually said such shameless words, her mother didn't reproach her, Xi'er just followed Xiu'er's words, although she didn't like it, but it didn't violate the rules, her mother actually made trouble on the spot, Xi'er was his wife, and her mother treated her like this, where did she put him.
Glancing at my mother and cousin, some words had already been spoken, and I simply cut off their thoughts, thinking of this, I took a sip of tea, moistened my throat, and said:
"What my mother said is, Xi'er is a little overstepping, my cousin is the biological daughter of the imperial history of the dynasty, the pearl in the palm of her hand, not only the country is beautiful and fragrant, and the appearance is as beautiful as a flower, and as Xi'er said, my cousin is proficient in chess, piano, calligraphy and painting, and she is really a talented woman, and the threshold of my aunt's house is about to be flattened by those dignitaries who come to ask for relatives, and my cousin is so talented that she wants to marry a prince and general, and make a fate, how can it be that I am a grass people to spy on, not to mention that I have already married a wife and concubine, Xi'er will not talk nonsense in the future."
The eldest lady just started listening to Xiao Jun scolding the second grandmother according to her words, and a rare smile appeared on her face, worthy of being her own son, she was listening to what she said, but listening to it, it became more and more tasteless, how could she seem to say that he was not worthy of Xiu'er. What about the posture that can't be climbed, Xiu'er is so good, what a grass people, although Jun'er has no official position, but he is also the head of the next generation of families, and he is also worthy of marrying the princess who wants to marry the golden branches and jade leaves!
What is Jun'er doing, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she finally reacted, just now she patronized and blamed the second grandmother, but she forgot that Jun'er was listening to him, thinking that she didn't agree to let Xiu'er marry him, so she was angry and said that she was not worthy of Xiu'er, so she simply refused, so as not to hurt face.
This stupid son, how can he not understand his own heart at all, she watched them grow up, and knew that they had deep feelings, how could she disagree! But Jun'er's words had already been exported, and he couldn't take it back, and for a while, he was deflated there like a fly, and his face was blue and white for a while.
After listening to the words of the second master, peeking at the eldest lady's deflated face, Mengxi was in a good mood, this evil mother-in-law was threatening her every day, and she was choked by her baby son at this time, see if she can still punish her son for kneeling for half an hour?
looked at the second master with a happy face, but saw that the second master was also looking at her, his eyes were full of warmth, his heart skipped a beat, he hurriedly turned his head, sat there and stopped talking.
Xiu'er on the side listened to her brother boasting about herself, that beauty, or cousin, her face was so long in front of her cousin-in-law, but the more she listened to it, the whiter her face became, and finally understood that her cousin had rejected her, and her head couldn't turn for a while, and she glanced at her aunt sadly, it must have been after her cousin-in-law proposed to let her be a concubine, and her cousin saw that she didn't agree, and her aunt said something like that again, and misunderstood, thinking that she didn't like him and hurt her dignity, so she simply refused.
Mother and cousin, although there is no discussion, but the ideas are surprisingly similar, if the second master knew what his mother and cousin were thinking at this time, he would probably really hit the wall with his head, how could he and his cousin be so ambiguous!
It's worthy of Xiu'er, it's smart, it's okay if my cousin misunderstands, she will find an opportunity to show him her heart in the future, tell him her feelings that will not heal until death, she is not rare what princes and generals, what is a fate, she will not marry him in this life.
Anyway, she must think about ending this topic now, so as not to talk deeply, can't take it back, and let her cousin lose face in the future, Xiu'er is very understanding, although she is also very aggrieved at this time, especially when she just saw her cousin-in-law secretly sending Qiubo to her cousin, which made her jealous, but this is not the time to have a seizure. She must think about her cousin's future, love is as long as it is given, regardless of return, I believe that one day, my cousin will understand her.
After thinking for a moment, Xiu'er coughed lightly and said:
"My cousin is coming back this time, and he won't leave again, right? My cousin was really ruthless, and after being gone for nearly two years, I didn't even come back for the New Year, which made my aunt miss my cousin for the holidays, and she didn't dare to let the old lady know, so she could only wipe her tears secretly. ”
When Xiao Jun heard this, he looked at his mother apologetically and said:
"Come back this time, if it's not a big deal, I can live in Pingyang for a few days, Jun'er is not filial, and I have been gone for so long, so my mother is worried."
When the eldest lady heard this, her eyes turned red, she was really aggrieved by this son, and she wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said:
"No matter how old the son is, it's always the meat that falls from the mother's body, he grows up when he is small, a little bit of something, I am a mother who hurts into the meat, but Jun'er is big, and the heart is big, I really can't help it, I have been gone for nearly two years, and when I go, I didn't even say a word to my mother, so that my mother got up early in the morning, went out, and didn't come back for the holidays, the old lady's birthday, the birth of my parents didn't care, where is I in my heart, my mother is old, and I don't use it......"
The eldest lady was talking and talking, tears broke down, and the second master was doubly careful on the side, saying that she was not, and nodding and coaxing her mother to be happy.
Seeing that Xiao Erye, who was talking in Xiao Xiang's courtyard, was tossed by the two of them at this time, he was sent to kneel down and kowtow to the eldest lady, imagining that after she left the house, the second master fell into the hands of these two pretentious women, how could the word "miserable".
Mengxi felt that this second master was also very pitiful for the first time, but it had nothing to do with her Li Mengxi, everyone had their own lives, and they were born in such a family, maybe this was the sorrow of his life.
