Chapter 92: Greetings (Part II)
Next, Xu Lingyi took a few more questions about Xu Siyu, and Xu Siyu answered them fluently.
The relief in Xu Lingyi's eyes was even stronger, and he confessed a few words such as "read with heart".
Xu Si responded one by one.
Eleven Niang took this opportunity to look at Aunt Qin and Qiao Lianfang's expressions.
The former looked at the father and son and smiled innocently, while the latter sat with his eyelids lowered and his posture a little stiff.
She thought of the flattering Aunt Wen...... There is also a cold-eyed self.
Suddenly I felt that this scene was a bit ridiculous.
It seems to be lively and noisy, but everyone has their own thoughts.
The thought flashed, and she couldn't help but look at Xu Lingyi.
Under the bright light, his serious side face has a kind of restraint and calmness that only mature men have.
In all fairness, Xu Lingyi is a rare beautiful man, handsome in appearance and stable in temperament, giving people a sense of security that has the courage to take on everything. I didn't reject him at the beginning, so it has a lot to do with it, right? Such an outstanding person, and an enviable status, if he was at Qiao Lianfang's age, he would also be tempted, right?
She was thinking wildly, and the corners of her eyes couldn't help but drift to Qiao Lianfang.
I felt a gaze as sharp as a sharp blade and full of chill shoot straight at me.
Eleven Niang suddenly realized that Qiao Lianfang had been looking at her!
But before she looked up, Qiao Lianfang had regained her demure appearance of sitting with her eyelids lowered and sitting upright, and she couldn't see that she had looked at Eleven Niang with such eyes.
Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Everything is as Yuan Niang wishes......
She sighed slightly in her heart, and heard Xu Lingyi instruct Xu Si: "...... It's not too early, so go back and rest! I have classes tomorrow. ”
Xu Siyu, Aunt Qin, and Qiao Lianfang stood up.
Eleven Niang glanced at Amber.
Amber immediately tiptoed to open the curtain for them.
“…… Do not delay the rest of father and mother. The child retired. Xu Siyu respectfully saluted Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang.
Aunt Qin also said briefly, "The slave has retired."
Eleven Niang bowed her head and whispered to them: "Be careful on the road." ”
Qiao Lianfang didn't make a sound, and retreated with Xu Siyu and Aunt Qin.
Amber sends the trio out.
Xu Lingyi's mood was obviously much better than just now, and let Eleven Niang call Chun Wei and Xia Yi to come in and serve him in the bath: "...... Tomorrow there will be an early pilgrimage. ”
Eleven Niang was a little surprised.
Didn't you say that you have foot paralysis?
I thought Xu Lingyi would rest at home for a while!
But she didn't say anything.
When you don't fully trust someone, there will always be selective speech. Xu Lingyi is like this to himself, and he is not like this to Amber and Holly.
She smiled and responded "yes", called Chun Wei and Xia Yi in, went to the east room by herself, and asked Binju to help her remove the hairpin on her head: "...... It's all for Mrs. Tai's reward, don't break it! ”
Before arriving at Xu's house, she reassigned the errands of several maids.
Amber officially took the lead, Holly was responsible for the night errand of the maid and daughter-in-law in her house, Binju was responsible for jewelry, clothes, monthly rites, dowry utensils and other things, and Zhu Xiang was responsible for eating and washing - both of which were to deal with the people of the Xu Mansion.
Binju looked at those hairpins and smiled all over her face - Mrs. Tai is really good to Mrs.
She carefully removed the hairpin on Eleven Niang's head.
When she went to see Mrs. Tai on the second day of the wedding, Mrs. Tai once gave her a box carved with red lacquer flowers and birds, and her hands were very heavy, and she felt that the things inside were very valuable. On the day I returned to the door, I opened it and found that it was full of some very rare gem-encrusted jewelry. Earning anger for your mother's family in your mother-in-law's house and earning anger for your mother-in-law's family is like taking care of your subordinates in front of your boss and maintaining your boss's dignity in front of your subordinates. She immediately changed into the jewelry that Mrs. Tai rewarded.
Xu Lingyi's eyes were a little satisfied.
Eleven Niang whispered to Binju: "Put it away carefully, don't lose a thing." ”
said that it was a reward for her, but she couldn't sell it herself, and she couldn't fight again. It's better to lend it to her. It's not a good thing to lose what you borrowed......
Binju smiled: "Madame, don't worry. I'm careful! Mrs. Tai specially rewarded, if you lose it, it will hurt Mrs. Tai's heart. ”
While the two were talking, Amber came in.
Binju stopped talking, quickly helped her clean up, and then retreated.
Amber commanded the little maid to bring in hot water and serve Eleven Niang to take a bath.
Soaking in a pine barrel sprinkled with rose dew, smelling the delicate pine fragrance and the rich fragrance of roses, it makes you feel refreshed as if you have stepped into nature. She couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling that the fatigue of the day was gone.
This is also the benefit of marrying Xu Lingyi - when the dowry was laid, Xu Fu gave the pollen rouge to be used on the day of marriage, including two bottles of perfume, one bottle of rose and one bottle of jasmine.
Ask me one day, is there any other taste? Or, you can try to refine some yourself. Isn't there a lot of flowers in the back garden of Xufu? In particular, it is said that the Lijingxuan is full of flowers all year round. She thought of the flowers and trees she had seen when she first arrived in the Lady's courtyard. The Xu family must have a special greenhouse, as well as servants who are good at planting......
As soon as she thought of this, she was a little eager to try.
Like all girls, Eleven Niang likes flowers and plants very much, and she used to be so busy with work, and she also planted a gardenia on the balcony.
Isn't Xu Lingyi not at home tomorrow? It's a good time to take a look at your surroundings and set up your home. It's full of jade bonsai like this, it's more than gorgeous, but it always feels dull.
However, since the two of them live together, it is better to say hello to Xu Lingyi in advance.
Although thinking like this, Shi Niang had a faint feeling that Xu Lingyi would not worry more about this kind of thing.
Is this another benefit of marrying Xu Lingyi!
Eleven Niang couldn't help laughing.
It's not that marriage is run by both parties. Is it considered a painstaking operation if you are like this? How does it feel like you're not running your own marriage, you're running your own freedom......
For a while, she was in a better mood than ever.
"Amber, did you find anything?" Eleven Niang asked Amber with a smile.
Amber looked at Eleven Niang very happily and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Eleven Niang asked her.
"After going out from you, Aunt Qiao went straight back to the courtyard. Aunt Qin sent the second young master out of the door before returning to her courtyard. Amber muttered, "However, not long after Aunt Qin went back, a maid from Aunt Wen's side brought something to Aunt Qin. ”
This Aunt Wen really doesn't stop for a moment!
Feeling that the water was a little cold, Eleven Niang got up and wiped her body, and Amber served her to dress.
"The courtyard where we live is actually divided into east and west courtyards."
Eleven Niang didn't understand for a while.
Amber whispered, "We are the West Cross Courtyard, and there is an East Cross Courtyard. The three aunts lived in the East Cross Courtyard. The three courtyards are lined up in front of each other. Aunt Wen lives in the southernmost side, Aunt Qin lives in the northernmost side, and Aunt Qiao lives in the middle. ”
Eleven Niang was a little surprised.
She was very busy these two days, and she didn't have the time and opportunity to pay attention to where the aunts lived.
"Did you just move in, or did you already live there?" She pondered.
"I've been living there for a long time." Amber said, "It is said that there should be a courtyard behind Aunt Qin, when the second young master was young, Mrs. Tai took the initiative to merge that courtyard into Aunt Qin's courtyard, and it became three courtyards." Therefore, the first two courtyards are one entry, and only Aunt Qin's courtyard is two-entry. After the second young master moved to the house in the outer courtyard last year, Aunt Qin lived there alone. ”
In the eyes of others, whether it is Aunt Qin or Qiao Lianfang, they all belong to Xu Lingyi, that is, a family, and they have to live in the same courtyard. Yuan Niang moved to the yard next to Xu Lingkuan...... Is it because of illness? Or is there something else?
Amber helped her dry her hair, and Eleven went back to the inner room.
Xu Lingyi had already gone to bed to rest, and still left half of the bed for her.
Eleven Niang blew out the lamp and went to bed and lay down, and began to count the sheep secretly in her heart.
The person next door would turn over like a pancake.
This man will be tomorrow morning, that is, in the early hours of the morning... Before arriving at the noon gate, you had to get up at least an hour earlier, and as a wife, you had to get up earlier than him, and then prepare breakfast for him, and serve him to get dressed and get up...... After he leaves, he has to go to greet Mrs. Tai.
"Master Hou." She called Xu Lingyi softly.
"Hmm!" He replied casually.
"I can't sleep." Eleven sat up staggered, "I want to read a few pages of the book......
It's her own noise that makes her sleep badly!
But he felt really uncomfortable.
Especially seeing Xu Siyu so cowardly and timid, Xu Siyu is so smart and serious. I don't know why, he suddenly remembered the five princes who committed suicide. Once drunk, standing in Jingshan Wanchun Pavilion, looking at the pavilions at his feet and crying: "...... I am better than him in everything, but he is only from a better background than me, he is a hundred times better than me, and he can beat me into the mortal world, and there will be no return! ”
Later, in the "Witch Cup Case", everyone knew that it could not be the prince, but none of the princes stood up to say a word for the prince.
As soon as he thought of this, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and his mouth felt as if it was a bitter gall.
"I'm arguing with you!" Xu Lingyi's voice was a little lonely, "You go to the warm pavilion to sleep!" ”
Why do I go to the warm pavilion to sleep? Instead of you going to the warm pavilion to sleep?
Eleven Niang couldn't help muttering in her heart.
I finally got a glimpse of what true machismo is.
"Nope." She smiled, "I really want to sleep, but I don't know why, I just can't sleep." So I want to read the book. ”
"Maybe it's too tired." Xu Lingyi answered her absentmindedly. Without objecting, Shi Niang got out of bed with her clothes on, lit the lamp, and took the "Chronicles of the Nine Domains of the Great Zhou" placed on the small table of the big kang in the window of the inner room, and then got into the quilt and read a book on the big pillow.
Her figure just blocked Xu Lingyi's head, and Xu Lingyi didn't feel the discomfort of the light.
After a while, Eleven Niang asked him, "Master Hou, where is Miao Jiang?" ”
"Why do you ask this?" may be the reason for lying on the bed, Xu Lingyi's voice does not have the clarity just now, but there is a kind of laziness to let down his guard, coupled with a deep voice, giving people a mellow and warm feeling.
Eleven Niang smiled slightly: "I heard that you fought there?" But the book didn't write where Miao Jiang was. ”
