Chapter VIII. Long time no see
Mrs. said that the son of the Luo family saved the third girl, and the son of the Wang family protected the girls from being injured at all, and it happened that the second son was also injured, so she specially invited them and the son and girl of the Luo family to get together in the house. Mrs. Jian'anhou and the second lady, as well as the prime minister's wife, will also come. The lady invited the girl to dinner, and went over early, so as not to neglect the guests. ”
Early in the morning, Xue Rong had just washed up, and Forsythia hurried over and asked Xue Rong to go to Mrs. Wang's side.
In the past, in Xue's Mansion, the matter of meeting guests has always had nothing to do with Xue Rong, and Mrs. Wang coaxed and lied that in order to make her more comfortable, in fact, she wished that no one would see her. In the previous life, Xue Rong was very surprised that Mrs. Wang suddenly let her see a guest, and only later did she know that it was just to trick her into marrying into the Wang family.
The same is true now.
Xue Rong raised the corners of his mouth slightly. See it, if you always don't let Mrs. Wang get her heart, maybe she will come up with some shady tricks!
Xue Rong came to Mrs. Wang's side, Xue Zhen and Xue Hui both arrived early, and unexpectedly, Xue Yun was also there. In the past, the only girls who could see guests were Xue Zhen and Xue Hui, Xue Yun didn't like to talk to people, just like a shadow in the house, many people only knew that there were four girls, but they had never passed four girls.
It's so rare today, it seems that it was the words of the pothos a few days ago that reached the ears of Mrs. Wang.
Xue Rong greeted Mrs. Wang, and exchanged a few words of greeting with Xue Zhen and Xue Hui. Xue Zhen always looks dignified and decent, and Xue Hui still ignores her.
"Fourth sister." Xue Rong turned to Xue Yun, and his voice unconsciously softened, for fear of scaring her. "Long time no see."
It's been a long time!
The last time I saw Xue Yun, it was in my previous life, Xue Yun was lying on a cold stone, and she had just been fished out of the lotus pond.
"Big sister." Xue Yun stood up and obeyed Xue Rong, her voice was small.
"Fourth sister, sit down." Xue Rong hurriedly smiled and came to his place to sit down.
"You are also older, so you will often talk to your three sisters in the future, or get together to be lively, and don't be bored in the house all day. When guests come, they also learn to be generous to others, don't always hum and chirp, others ask a question, just know how to laugh. ”
Xue Yun just sat down, heard Mrs. Wang talking about herself, quickly stood up again, served Mrs. Wang, and was about to sit down, when she remembered something, whispered "yes", and then quietly sat down.
A few people were drinking tea and talking, and Mrs. Jian'an Hou and Mrs. Erfang arrived, and then Prime Minister Luo's wife Yang also came with two sons and a girl. The sons didn't come in, and were directly let to drink tea in the west hall.
The girl of the Luo family is called Minghui, looking at the childish spirit, and asked about her age, sure enough, she is not as old as Xue Yun, and she is only eight years old this year. It is estimated that the Luo family is also the same as the Wang family, there are more boys and fewer girls, Luo Minghui is very close to Xue Rong, especially likes to talk to Xue Yun, and when asked the reason, she answered naïvely.
"The fourth sister has a good smile."
"The two children are the same age, so it's easier to play in one place. I don't think we should restrain the girls, just let them go by themselves, whether they are playing or shopping, eating or drinking, they are all with them. Let's also have fun and talk. Mrs. Jian'an Hou Li smiled and said, and couldn't help but sigh. How good, all of them are like flowers and bones, but unfortunately I don't have that blessing. ”
When Mrs. Wang heard her sister-in-law's words, the smile on her face stiffened, and she quickly returned to normal.
"Don't be restrained by the few over there, they are all children, and they have all seen it, so let their brothers and sisters make trouble together." Mrs. Wang proposed, and looked at Mrs. Yang again. "The Prime Minister's Mansion is a scholar, don't laugh at us for being rude."
"What's there to laugh at, we're our own people, don't talk about that false courtesy." Mrs. Yang was happy. "Sister, you are really humble, these girls, all of them are good, I see that my eyes are glazed."
A few elders said a few more polite words. Xue Hui was so anxious that she wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Xue Hao with her eyes.
"Mother, when are we going to go out to play?" Luo Minghui was young and active, and when she heard that she let them out, where could she bear it.
"Okay, okay, I'll let you go." Although Mrs. Yang is famous, many people know that she is powerful, but she is very pampered to children.
"Fourth sister, let's go." Luo Minghui stood up, bent slightly to the ladies, and came to take Xue Yun's hand.
Xue Rong and the others also got up, bowed, and retreated in turn.
When Xue Hui came to the door, she immediately looked to the west, and saw that no one came out, and her face showed a little disappointment.
"Give me a little more dignity." Xue Hao lowered her voice and said in Xue Hui's ear.
"You care about me!" Xue Hui glared at her sister, and she didn't go with everyone, took the girl, turned around and left by herself.
Xue Hao gritted her teeth and let out a long sigh at her sister's back.
"It's not that you don't know, as long as it doesn't meet the third sister's wishes, she will definitely come the other way, so why talk about her." Xue Rong looked at Xue Zhen and smiled. "If you don't go against her heart, she will be more obedient."
"Sister wasn't like this before!" Xue Zhen smiled on her face, but she couldn't hide her doubts in her eyes. Xue Rong is really different from before, and he doesn't seem to like to go toe-to-toe with Xue Hui so much.
"I understand the third sister. Her temperament, I don't like it and feel willful, and if I like it, I think it's straightforward, although I used to quarrel with her, I actually like her! Xue Rong said casually as he walked out.
Suddenly changed, there must be a legitimate reason!
Xue Hao didn't seem to be in a hurry, and deliberately slowed down.
Xue Rong saw that Xue Zhen was doing this again, and he didn't expose her, pretending to be afraid that Luo Minghui, who was trotting all the way, would fall, and walked a few steps quickly, following behind Luo Minghui and Xue Yun.
With Luo Minghui here, although Xue Yun was still cautious, her steps were much brisker.
This poor girl probably never thought that she would be able to have a casual day of shopping.
Xue Yun, like her, is the shadow in Mrs. Wang's heart. Her existence may shake Mrs. Wang's original status, and Xue Yun is because of her unpopular birth. Mrs. Wang's stomach was full of fire at that time, so she sprinkled it on the young Xue Yun, and threw it to the nurse on weekdays, and when she was unhappy, she called her over to teach a lesson, all kinds of pickiness, so that when Xue Yun saw Mrs. Wang, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and she didn't dare to come out.
After a long time, Xue Yun became more and more timid and cowardly, and she didn't dare to see people.
However, such a quiet girl who wanted to hide herself, didn't even dare to make a sound when she walked, and was cautious in everything, would stumble and fall into the lotus pond!
Xue Rong's hand was clenched, and his fingertips stabbed into his palm fiercely.
On the day of marriage, I found out that the person I married was Wang Lishi, and when Liuli persuaded her to settle down a little, she told her with bad intentions that Xue Yun accidentally heard the words of Mrs. Wang and Xue Hao, and wanted to secretly run to tell her the truth, but she ran too quickly, so she fell into the lotus pond and drowned.
At that time, she cried for several days for the news and for this sister who was never noticed by herself.
But now that I think about it, I feel that something is wrong!
In her previous life, she died clearly, but Xue Yun died unclearly!
