Chapter 238: Ask
Because there are too many houses to store furniture, Xia Jin's eye is picky, and this furniture took a day to order all the furniture and let people send it to the summer house.
At noon, Su Muxian invited them to dinner at a nearby restaurant.
Staying in the restaurant and sitting down, Cen Ziman turned Xia Jin with his elbow, and whispered: "Hey, did you find it?" Half of the table is filled with your favorite dishes! ”
Xia Jin opened his eyes and looked, it was really.
She couldn't help but glance at Su Muxian, facing Su Muxian's dark and deep eyes. She hurriedly withdrew her gaze, but heard Cen Ziman's chuckle. She didn't say anything on her face, but she stepped on Cen Ziman under the table, the embroidered shoes were not as powerful as the high heels, and she also crushed them twice.
"Ahh Cen Ziman exclaimed exaggeratedly.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Xia Qi stretched out his hand to lift the tablecloth, wanting to see what was going on with Cen Ziman's feet.
Cen Ziman's face turned red, and he hurriedly pulled the tablecloth hard, not letting Xia Qi lift it: "It's okay, it's okay, I accidentally kicked the table leg just now, and now it's okay." ”
How can a woman's feet be easily seen by a man?
Xia Qi saw Cen Ziman's blushing face before he reacted. Immediately, his face turned red, and he said, "It's okay, be careful." ”
Xia Jin looked at these two shows affection, pursed his lips and was stealing fun, not wanting to be over there, Su Muxian put a chopstick dish on her plate, and said, "Last time, I saw that you liked to eat this stewed bamboo shoots in oil, so I specially ordered it today." You taste it, it doesn't fit the taste. ”
Xia Jin had to say thank you, lowered his head and went to eat. Feeling Su Muxian's gaze, the strange feeling of that night came to her heart again, and she couldn't help but blush.
Seeing this, Su Muxian was secretly happy in his heart. Keep up the effort and continue to put all the things Xia Jin likes to eat on the plate in front of her.
It's also difficult for him, Xia Jin only had a meal at the same table with him in his house that night, and he can clearly remember what Xia Jin likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat.
Xia Jin had never been in love in his previous life, even if he had an affair with Luo Qian in this life. Never had dinner together either. Luo Qian is slightly positive. And because his mother didn't agree with the family affairs, he didn't dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi in his behavior, for fear of abruptly abrupt Xia Jin. seems to be disrespectful to her, so when they are together, they have always been serious and have never been intimate. So Su Muxian made this move. Unconsciously touched the softest place in Xia Jin's heart.
A woman, no matter how capable she is. No matter how female a man is, when men and women get along, they are still willing to let men take care of them.
Cen Ziman and Xia Qi are sweet, but they don't forget to take care of their girlfriends. When she noticed this subtle feeling between Xia Jin and Su Muxian. couldn't help but feel happy, and felt more and more that they would go out together more in the future to create opportunities for Xia Jin and Su Muxian to get along.
The four of them ate this meal for most of the hour. Xia Jin felt awkward like never before.
Su Muxian has business over there, so he can't stay here for a long time. After dinner, we took them to the furniture store. Then he hurried away again.
In the evening, watching the shop guys send the furniture to the Xia house, and then put them one by one, Cen Ziman went home with the Xia family brothers and sisters.
"Girl." As soon as Xia Jin entered the door, Dong Fang greeted her, helped her open the curtains, and made tea, but her expression was uneasy, and she looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.
"What's wrong, there's something wrong with your lawsuit?" Xia Jin asked.
"Nope." Dong Fang shook his head and turned his head to look at Qingying.
Qingying is a very discerning maid, and when she saw this, she smiled and said, "The girl is tired for a day, so take a bath before eating?" The slave and maid went and called for hot water to be prepared. With that, he lifted the curtain and went out.
At this time, Dong Fangcai said softly: "Girl, Mrs. Luo went to the Zheng Mansion today and retired to Gongzi Luo. ”
"Oh?" Xia Jin was surprised.
Although Mrs. Luo's illness is almost better, she has to recuperate for two days before going out, right? Why did she run to visit the door before she was cured of such a disease?
Seeing that she didn't understand, Dong Fang reminded: "I heard that Xuanping Houye and they will start the day after tomorrow." ”
Thinking about these two sentences that have little to do with each other, Xia Jin understands.
Co-authored Mrs. Luo, this is to handle the family affairs properly, so that the people in Xuanping Houfu can bring the news to Luo Qian. Maybe Luo Qian heard that the Zheng family's family affairs had retired, and knew that Mrs. Luo was serving undressed during her illness, so he had hope in his heart, so he made an excuse and ran back.
As soon as Xia Jin figured out this matter, Dong Fang threw out another piece of news: "There is a guard in the Cen Mansion who quickly sent a letter, saying that the lord and his wife have arrived at Forty Miles, and they will be able to arrive in the capital at noon tomorrow." ”
"Really?" Even though it is estimated that his parents will be able to arrive in the next two days, Xia Jin is still very surprised to hear the news.
Dong Fang saw Xia Jin's surprise and didn't think of anything else, so he had to remind again: "Girl, maybe as soon as the lord and lady come, Mrs. Luo will propose to your family." ”
"Huh?" Xia Jin was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Dong Fang, and only after a moment did he look like he suddenly realized.
Dong Fang was relieved when he saw that Xia Jin understood. After hesitating for a moment, he persuaded softly: "Girl, although Master Luo is good, compared with Wu'an Houye, it is still not a little worse." You...... You won't choose Luo Gongzi, right? ”
Xia Jin stared at Dong Fang, his eyes were not instantaneous, until he stared at Dong Fang with a panicked expression, bit his lip and lowered his head, and did not dare to look at her again, then he retracted his gaze and said coldly: "This matter is not for you to worry about." ”
"Yes, girl." Dong Fang bowed his head in response.
"Get out."
"Yes." Dong Fang retreated lightly.
Xia Jin sat there and thought for a moment, then took a sip of the teacup, and when he put the teacup down, his eyes were firm and focused, and he seemed to have made up his mind.
After a tiring day outside, Xia Jin took a bath, slept after dinner, and did not go to Mrs. Luo's side to check her pulse.
If the Xia Cen family is not ready to discuss marriage, with Xia Jin's kindness to the Cen Mansion, Mrs. Xuan Pinghou can completely package the furniture and supplies of the Xia family's new house, and ask her subordinates to handle it properly, and not let her pay a penny.
But now that the two families want to get married, it is not appropriate to give such a gift. Knowing that Xia Jin had picked up all the furniture, the old lady Xuanping Hou called Xia Jin over on the second day and said to her: "Your parents went to Beijing, and I am afraid that there are not many people with them." Everyone is new to the city, tired from the journey, and has no energy and time to arrange all kinds of things. In the past few days, I have told your aunt to prepare the bedding, the tent, the curtains, and the curtains of all colors. You'll take a look later, and if it fits, I'll call someone to help you put it up." There are still some extra cups and dishes at home, and you can use them. When you're free, add something agreeable. ”
These things aren't worth much, but they cost a lot of work. Moreover, Xuanping Houfu has a thick background, and any things taken out are exquisite and high-grade. Xia Jin took the money to buy it on the street, and he might not be able to buy such a good one.
This not only took care of the Xia family's face, but also helped the Xia family a lot. Mrs. Xuanpinghou's considerate and thoughtful style of acting made Xia Jin admire it very much.
She stood up and saluted respectfully, and said, "Thank you old lady for thinking about everything, and I thank the old lady first on behalf of my mother." ”
Xia Jin's generous attitude is the most liked by Mrs. Xuanpinghou.
She helped Xia Jin up, pressed her shoulders to sit down, and said, "You are a child with ideas, and there is one thing I have to tell you before your mother arrives." ”
Xia Jin raised his eyes and looked at Mrs. Xuanping Hou, wondering what made Mrs. Xuanping so solemn.
"Mrs. Luo went to the Zheng family yesterday to withdraw from her relatives. After she came back, she came to me and asked me to be a matchmaker for her, wanting to hire you as the daughter-in-law of the Luo family. ”
Old Madam Xuan Pinghou looked at Xia Jin's eyes and continued to say unhurriedly: "However, I refused. ”
Xia Jin was stunned.
It is not strange that Mrs. Luo asked Mrs. Xuanping to be the matchmaker, she was strange that Mrs. Xuanping would refuse this request, and she also told her about it.
Seeing Xia Jin's look of surprise, Mrs. Xuanping nodded secretly, and said, "When Sister Man'er had an accident, the first thing we considered was not Brother Ling, but Su Muxian's child. ”
She sighed: "It's not that we think your family is low, but we know more about Brother Xian'er's child's personality, and Sister Man'er will marry him, and life will inevitably be comfortable." And marrying into your family, after all, you have to serve your parents-in-law. Your parents and your brother's personalities, we don't get along well and don't know each other well. You are an understanding child, and you want to come to us as an elder, can you understand it? ”
Xia Jin nodded: "I understand." She raised her dark eyes, "I just don't understand why you're telling me, old lady. "Isn't she afraid that the Xia family will have a heart?
"First, this family matter was requested by Sister Man herself, she bluntly said that she wanted to marry your brother, and did not approve of the marriage with Brother Xian, you know that this matter will only be better for her, and she will not be careful. Second, ......"
Speaking of this, she paused, and looked at Xia Jin's eyes full of smiles: "Su Muxian, that kid rejected our proposal. He said that he had a heart and couldn't marry Sister Man. ”
Xia Jin's heart jumped, and his face turned red involuntarily. She quickly lowered her head.
She found that she blushed especially easily during this time, which was really not a good thing. Why are her emotions out of control?
"That's why I don't be a matchmaker for Mrs. Luo." Mrs. Xuanping Hou continued, "Brother Xian'er's child is pitiful, obviously he has both parents, but he grew up in the temple since he was a child. finally grew up and was picked up, his father died of illness, and his mother and younger brother sent people to hunt him down for selfish purposes. Now there is a huge Wu'an Houfu, and there is only one master and more than a dozen subordinates. My heart, I feel distressed when I think of him. ”
She stretched out her hand, lovingly stroked Xia Jin's black and shiny hair, and asked, "What do you think of these two family affairs, tell me about them." Although your parents are in charge of this matter, Mrs. Luo and Brother Xian'er have a great relationship with me, and you are Sister Man'er's future sister-in-law. Knowing your thoughts, I'd better take precautions in advance, lest there be any unpleasantness and everyone won't be able to get off the stage. (To be continued)
