Chapter 107: A Visitor
Xia's gaze passed through the window lattice, as if returning to the time when she gave birth to her first daughter that year......
At that time, she followed Hou Ye in office, but when Hou Ye gave birth to a child, he was taking troops to fight outside, and she gave birth to her daughter for two days and two nights. At that time, she was a small crumpled mess, and her eyes were swollen and swollen before they were opened, but she just felt that her daughter was good-looking, and the joy in her heart overflowed her chest. Looking at her, she could even imagine how happy she would be when Hou Ye returned victorious and saw her daughter!!
It's just that no one thought that something would happen after just a few days of birth......
If you ...... Will it be ...... now?
Xia Shi suddenly fell deeply into distant memories, and her eyes fell on Chu Peixuan's face, as if she was missing another person. However, the more she looked at her, the more she couldn't reconcile the two faces, which made her very irritated and impatient!
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Ever since she finished asking that sentence, Chu Peixuan felt that something seemed to be wrong with her mother, and now this feeling is especially obvious, which makes her feel very uneasy!
Xia's memories were interrupted, and the focus of her gaze was finally fixed on her daughter's worried little face, and she barely pulled out a smile to comfort her: "Good, my mother is just thinking about something." For your big sister, you just need to know that your mother doesn't like her either, don't ask anything else, understand? β
Chu Peixuan didn't understand, but she nodded subconsciously, and she couldn't help but be very curious about how the eldest sister made her mother disgusted!
Leaving the Xia family and her daughter, she didn't mention it, but said that after Chu Peijin's Qinglan Courtyard sent the Xia family away, the three sisters of the Wang family made an appointment to come over to see her.
Chu Peijin leaned there and listened a little boredly, it was nothing more than those few words, it was worrying to hear the news, regretting that she shouldn't have left them, caring about her injuries, etc. Chu Peijin had a decent smile on her face and let them go back after coping with it, chatting with people about this kind of unnutritious day is not as pleasant as sleeping!
It's a pity that her wish is not so easy to come true, following the three sisters of the Wang family, the fifth sister, the sixth sister and the seventh sister all came to visit her injuries one by one, she had to allocate some energy to deal with them, and after sending off the guests, it was almost dinner time, after Chu Peijin ate something, Cuizhu helped with the medicine and went to bed early!
After breakfast the next day, Chu Peijin's foot injury had disappeared a lot, and she didn't want to stay in bed anymore, so she asked Cuizhu to sit next to the ink bamboo in the yard. She's just hurt her ankle and she's not too sick to move, as for it!
While a few of them were talking, Lilac walked in from outside, and when she saw Chu Peijin in the courtyard, her eyes lit up and she walked over with a smile.
"Girl, the house is lively today! I heard that a lady Locke is coming to visit! β
Chu Peijin was stunned for a moment, remembered the house with a flicker, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Which house knows?" β
Ding Xiang said: "I didn't say it, I just said that it was Mrs. Luo." But it's a pity that the girl's foot is injured, otherwise the old lady would have let you go and see her. β
Mrs. Luo is a woman, and usually the main family will call the girls in the family to recognize their faces, so that they can come and go later.
"Her identity is different from ours, and if she wants to accompany the guests, she should be accompanied by her mother and the second and third aunts, how can there be anything to do with our juniors?" Chu Peijin looked disappreciative.
She thought it was Ouyang Jinglan who was here!
"Not necessarily."
Cuizhu said on the side: "The girl doesn't know, now there are several girls in our house who have reached the age of discussing relatives, and the old lady who visits like this will definitely be willing to let the girls go to meet the guests and show their faces, and there will be a good reputation in the future, and it is easy to discuss relatives!" β
Chu Peijin twitched the corners of her mouth, isn't this what it means to pull it out and give it to others! Then she shouldn't have gone!
Cuizhu has always felt that her own girls should show their faces more in the noble girl circle in Kyoto, and when the time comes, Princess Kang will have someone to help her when she goes out to socialize, so she strongly hopes that Chu Peijin can seize this opportunity.
"Girl, the slave thinks ......"
"Girl, girl is not good!!"
Cuizhu's words were interrupted by a hurried and panicked voice, she frowned and looked up, and saw that it was the little girl Yuxi in the courtyard, and couldn't help but sink her face and shouted: "What are you panicking about?" Didn't you see the girl here? β
Yuxi was sweating profusely at this time, and she couldn't care about anything, so she ran to Chu Peijin in a few steps and stood still panting for breath, until she was not so uncomfortable, and then opened her mouth and said: "Girl, the eldest lady is coming this way, and the slave maid heard that she is going to take you to the ancestral hallββ"
"What?"
Several maids widened their eyes in surprise and looked at the rain in unison.
Chu Peijin remembered the confrontation with the Xia family yesterday, and it seemed that she showed her hand yesterday and made her angry! It's just that from this point of view, one thing is certain, that is, no matter whether her daughter is stupid or good, she won't like it!!
Oh, what a sad result!
"Girl, what should I do?"
Chu Peijin rolled her eyes at the sky, "She's coming, can you stop it?" β
Cuizhu: "......" really can't be stopped.
But even if you can't stop it, can't you just wait stupidly? What should they do?
Chu Peijin's face was calm, but the four maids were full of anxiety and restless.
Xia took Mama Huang and the four rough mothers-in-law and walked in in such a scene.
"The slave has seen Madame!" A few maids hurriedly saluted.
Chu Peijin didn't get up, just looked at Xia Shi and said with a smile: "Why did my mother come to see her daughter so early?" β
Chu Peijin's rudeness made the Xia family feel looked down upon, especially since that person was still his least favorite daughter.
"What? I don't know how to bow when I see my mother? Where have you learned all the rules? β
Chu Peijin lifted her injured foot with an innocent expression, "Mother, look, my foot is still injured!" Shouldn't you be sympathetic to your daughter? β
Xia's stalk, the expression on his face was immediately difficult to see!
"It's strange that yesterday's behavior was inappropriate, but now I see that I am too tolerant of you on weekdays! You go to the ancestral hall and kneel now, and come out again when you know when you are wrong! β
She really wanted to punish her! Otherwise, why would she hold on to such a trivial thing?
Chu Peijin lowered her head and collected a touch of coldness in her eyes, and nodded calmly: "What my mother said is that I will go now!" β
Things went smoothly beyond Xia's expectations, she looked at Chu Peijin with a hint of suspicion, and saw that she really stood up with Cuizhu's hand, and a pair of willow eyebrows couldn't help frowning together!
What is she trying to do?
"Mother, since you have brought so many people, why don't you let them carry me over? You see, my feet are still swollen, and it's a little inconvenient to walk......"
Chu Peijin's voice was still as calm as water, and it felt as if she was telling someone, the weather is really good today, let's go out and play......
Xia squinted slightly and looked at her coldly, wanting to know what she was thinking.
