Xia Shi stared at the post tightly and looked at it again and again, and finally was still a little incredulous: "Mother, is this post real?" ”

The old lady glanced at her, her fingers slowly twisted the Buddha beads and did not stop for a moment, she lifted her eyelids and said lightly: "What stupid things do you say?" How can such a thing be faked? What's more, the porter said that it was the steward of the Hussar General's Mansion who came to hand over the post in person, do you say it can be fake? ”

"But-" Xia Shi looked puzzled, "Mrs. Luo has been living in seclusion for many years and has never appeared at major banquets in Kyoto, why is she suddenly coming to our mansion now?" ”

The old lady glanced at her, and it was rare to see the eldest daughter-in-law appear such a stupid appearance, but it made her unconsciously remember the situation when the Xia family had just married into Wu'an Houfu.

At that time, the Xia family was very well-behaved in everything, and when she was told to do something, she didn't dare to make the slightest mistake. Occasionally I am afraid to make a mistake, for fear that she will be unhappy!

Thinking of this, the old lady couldn't help but sigh deeply!

Xia didn't expect that it was just a moment of kung fu for the old lady to recall the past, and she still had a confused expression on her face, "Mother, isn't there something Mrs. Luo wants to ask for to come to the master, so she wants to come to our mansion to visit?" ”

There is nothing big going on in the court at present, so the old lady doesn't know what Mrs. Luo's intention is.

"That's it, tomorrow you can have a banquet in the mansion to entertain her, General Ouyang was also a well-known figure in the past, and Mrs. Luo's character is good, and befriending her will not hinder our Wu'an Houfu."

Xia lowered his head and frowned, "What my mother said is that my daughter-in-law will arrange it!" ”

After saying this, she wanted to mention Chu Peijin's matter, but suddenly thought that Mrs. Luo was coming tomorrow, and if the old lady heard that she was going to punish Chu Peijin to kneel in the ancestral hall, she would definitely not agree, so this matter still had to be 'cut first and then played'.

After making up her mind in her heart, Xia's expression quickly returned to normal, she and the old lady reported the matter of Aunt Wang in detail, and then said some trivial things in the house, seeing that the old lady had tiredness on her face, she followed Mama Qin and waited for the old lady to go back to the warm pavilion inside to sleep, and then returned to the Nishang Courtyard.

In the yard, Xia planted two begonias, the autumn breeze blew a little petals and fell to the ground, looking from afar as if a very beautiful carpet of flowers, soft and soft, beautiful.

Mama Hu accompanied her and accompanied her to quietly look at the scene, and then said as if sighing and regretting: "The old slave has lived for such a long time, and I have never seen a girl as smart as the eldest girl!" ”

It's a pity, but she's not......

"Mama, do you believe her?" Xia Shi didn't look back, his eyes slowly moved from the residual flowers on the ground to the begonia tree, most of the flowers were gone, only a few were still blooming tenaciously, as if he was unwilling and struggling for his last moment.

Xia Shi suddenly walked over and grabbed the branch and shook it violently a few times, the branch trembled, and the few remaining flowers on it could no longer maintain their original appearance and fell to the ground one after another, and the petals were also split and ran to each other!

Mama Hu looked at Xia's actions in surprise, and didn't understand why she couldn't get along with a begonia.

Xia Shi chuckled as if he had finished venting the resentment in his heart, and muttered, "Isn't it good to land obediently?" You've got to wait for me to make a move......"

Mama Hu looked at Xia Shi with some horror, her lips trembled a few times, and she didn't spit out a word for a long time, because the expression on Xia's face after laughing was really terrible!!

"Mother, mother! Huh - what are you doing here? ”

As soon as Chu Peixuan came in from outside the courtyard, she saw her mother holding the branches of the begonia tree tightly and did not move, and her heart couldn't help jumping.

Hearing his daughter's voice, Xia Shi came back to his senses, and the expression on his face changed to a gentle and kind face the moment he turned around.

"Xuan'er is here! Come, go into the house and talk to your mother. ”

After speaking, she stretched out her hand and waited for Chu Peixuan to come to her, and then personally grabbed her wrist and led her to the house.

"Mother, you...... What's going on? ”

Although Xia's face was still the same as before, Chu Peixuan was sensitive to the slightest mistake!

Xia didn't let go of Chu Peixuan's hand until he walked into the house, and a girl had already come over with two cups of tea, Xia picked it up and took two sips gently, and then raised his eyes and glanced at Mama Hu.

Mama Hu understood and hurriedly waved her hand to let the maids out, and she walked outside the door and stood there guarding.

Chu Peixuan became more and more puzzled.

"Mother, what happened?"

Xia took out the two pieces of paper in his arms and put them in front of Chu Peixuan.

"It's ......"

Chu Peixuan looked down carefully, and her eyes suddenly flashed when she saw the immature brushwork, but her eyes widened leisurely when she saw the other one!

"Mother, who wrote this?" Why is it so beautiful? Although the content on the paper is not good, it does not prevent others from appreciating the beautiful handwriting of Mr.

"Your big sister wrote it!"

"What? How can it be? Chu Peixuan stood up and exclaimed suddenly, her face full of incredulity!

"Isn't she—Didn't she start practicing calligraphy a few days ago? Mother, don't be mistaken, right? Chu Peixuan couldn't believe that such a beautiful font in front of her came from the hand of that useless big sister!

Xia sighed: "Yes, my mother has always thought so, my mother thinks she is cowardly and cowardly, she is illiterate, but what is the result?" When Xia said this, he looked at Chu Peixuan's eyes with a layer of deep meaning: "Xuan'er, this word was written by herself under her mother's nose!" ”

Chu Peixuan's face changed suddenly, and she muttered blankly: "No, no, no, how is it possible?" It's—it's impossible! With that, she slumped into her chair!

Xia Shi straightened his face and asked solemnly: "Xuan'er, you tell your mother the truth, did you write the words on this note?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Chu Peixuan's body stiffened, and the only remaining blood on her palm-sized little face suddenly faded cleanly!

"Mother, I, I ......" She trembled her lips for a long time and couldn't say a word!

Looking at this situation, what else does Xia not understand?

She sighed, got up and walked over to take Chu Peixuan into her arms, gently rubbed her back, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, Xuan'er, my mother didn't blame you." It's just that in this matter, your methods are too immature. ”

Chu Peixuan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had a trace of anger on her face. She softened her body and hugged Xia Shi tightly and said with a red face: "Mother, I, I just can't be angry, so I just want to teach my sister a lesson, daughter...... Daughter ......"

"Okay, mother knows!" Xia Shi patted her on the shoulder and looked at her lovingly, "You're worried that your own sister who bullied you will be unhappy, so you don't dare to tell your mother, right?" ”

Chu Peixuan was said to be in her heart, so she was busy and lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

She really didn't like this big sister since she was a child, probably because she thought she had snatched her father's love, right?

Well, it must be like that!

"Actually, my mother doesn't like her either!"

Chu Peixuan looked up at her mother with wide eyes, not understanding whether she was comforting herself or ...... Although her mother did show that she didn't like her big sister on weekdays, Chu Peixuan never thought that one day her mother would tell her in person.

But why?

"Mother, my daughter doesn't like her because my daughter thinks her father likes her more than her daughter, so why doesn't my mother like my sister either?"

My sister is also my mother's biological daughter, and my mother doesn't even like her own daughter, so will she not like herself in the future? After all, in addition to her, the ninth sister is also the mother's biological daughter!
