Chapter 180: Fate
Zhu Junxi's cold gaze swept over, and the impatience in his heart turned into anger. He can't care about how Xia Furong jumps by herself, but when it comes to him, he can't tolerate it anymore: "Miss Xia's words are not right!" The little girl opens the door to do business, she sells and I buy, fair trade, what is there to be embarrassed to collect money? Or does Miss Xia think that my Zhu family can't take out these ten taels of silver? ”
"Nope! I didn't mean that......" Seeing that Zhu Ergongzi finally looked at her, but with a disgusted gaze, Xia Furong was confused. In front of Zhu Gongzi, she should be patient, and regret that she shouldn't have been provoked by that cheap girl to lose her sense of proportion, so that she lost face in front of Zhu Ergongzi - it's all the fault of that cheap girl!!
I blindly find fault with others, and I blame all the faults on others, and I am also drunk when I encounter such a superlative!
Zhu Junxi went out with a watermelon, Xia Furong's eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet, and she kept staring at the majestic figure, reluctant to move away for a long time.
Yu Xiaocao was shy for her when she saw it, so lingering and sympathetic with her eyes, and in front of her elders, is it really good?
"Fleur! Don't make me regret taking you out!! Mrs. Fang did not hide her disappointment in Xia Furong, and her tone of voice was naturally much heavier.
Xia Furong retracted her gaze unwillingly, glared angrily at Xiaocao who was watching the excitement, and was angry in her heart: it was this cheap girl who robbed her aunt's favor, and her aunt was never willing to say a word to her before!!
Poor Yu Xiaocao lay down again.
"Fleur, come! Let me introduce you to you, this is the goddaughter that I and your uncle recognized, and also your cousin. You're a few years older than her, so you're going to have to get along with your sister in the future. Mrs. Fang noticed her niece's faint hostility towards Xiaocao, and admonished without a beating.
"Godmother, your niece is naturally my sister, don't worry, we will get along very well." Yu Xiaocao took Xia Furong's hand affectionately, shook it lightly, and said, "Cousin, we're having fun!" You can go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables, catch pheasants, or go down to the sea to fish for seashells and seafood...... That's right! Ming'er, I'll take you to dig sea intestines! Our sea intestines are fat, thicker than my fingers, long, soft, and fleshy to the touch, like a big earthworm......"
This wilted bad guy knows that a lady with a delicate personality like Xia Furong is not interested in insects and the like, and deliberately makes the appearance of sandworms vivid. Sure enough, Xia Furong's face turned pale after hearing this, she shook off Yu Xiaocao's hand vigorously, and pushed her, screaming, "Get out!" You filthy pariah!! ”
Yu Xiaocao was pushed and stumbled, and his back hit the door frame with a loud bang. With tears in the corners of her eyes (not pretending, it really hurt), she raised her little face, and said pitifully and innocently: "Godmother, my cousin doesn't seem to like me...... If you don't like me, you can't scold anyone! They were all raised by my parents, and I am also my father's baby, where is it dirty, where is it cheap? ”
The patience in Mrs. Fang's heart was about to be worn out by her niece's performance today. looked at Xia Furong's undisguised disgust, thinking about her sensibility and innocence in the past...... Hehe, it turned out to be all pretended to cater to her! Now that I know that the Fang family has recognized their righteous daughter, their hopes are disappointed, and they don't even want to hide their temperament?
"Xiaocao, come, let the godmother see if she is hurt?" Mrs. Fang took Xiaocao's hand and gently stroked her bruised back.
"Godmother, it hurts......" Xiaocao felt that her back must be bruised, but she didn't expect that a girl who looked delicate and weak actually had so much strength, could it be that she was too stimulated?
Mrs. Fang remembered the movement made during the collision just now, and knew that Xiaocao's reaction was not pretended, so she comforted with a little pity: "Xiaocao, go to the inner courtyard, my godmother helped you rub the medicinal oil, and it will soon be no longer painful." ”
As she spoke, she took Yu Xiaocao's little hand, led the two big maids through the store, and walked towards the courtyard. When she passed by Xia Furong, she didn't even give her a look.
When Mrs. Fang was in the boudoir, she was the daughter of the eldest house, and she grew up beside the old lady since she was a child. Although the Xia family's inner house was chaotic, the old lady's courtyard was as clean as the Garden of Eden. Therefore, Mrs. Fang has grown into a bright and upright personality with clear love and hate. When she likes you, she will want to give you the best of everything; When you don't like it, they will ignore you to the end.
The Xia family is restless, and Mrs. Fang is not unaware of the intrigues. I thought that Xia Furong, the niece, would be like her, a clear water hibiscus from the Xia family, but I didn't expect that everything was disguised by her to deceive her. For the person who deceived her feelings, how happy Mrs. Fang was at the beginning, and how resentful she is now.
Xia Furong, who has been with her aunt for nearly five years in the Fang family, naturally knows her aunt's character very well. Seeing Mrs. Fang walking past her in disregard, she immediately panicked, and hurriedly explained: "Auntie, I was ...... just now My cousin was frightened. You also know that nieces are the most afraid of bugs. In a hurry, I hurt my cousin, so I will make amends to her......"
Until now, I still don't know what my biggest mistake was. Alas, she really walked completely this time...... Mrs. Fang's footsteps were only a moment, and she continued to walk forward without looking back.
Yu Xiaocao gently broke free of her hand, turned her head with a straight face, and said, "Cousin, it is inevitable that we are running and jumping in the mountains, and it is inevitable that we will stumble. So you're hurting me by mistake, and I'm not angry. I'm angry: you insult me with such vicious words! Not only did you break my heart, but you also exposed your hideous face in front of people! Although I was born in a farming family, I also know the truth of 'bad words hurt people in June' - in our village, only difficult shrews will scold people in public! ”
When Xia Furong heard this, the expression on her face became distorted again: This stinky girl must be in conflict with her! not only snatched away her aunt's favor for her, but also always slandered and smeared her in front of her aunt! No, I have to let my aunt know Yu Xiaocao's true face!!
"Auntie, I was in a hurry just now. However, my cousin compared me to a shrew in their village, and my aunt ......" Xia Furong took out her handkerchief, wiped the corners of her eyes, and lowered her head to look like she was being bullied.
Mrs. Fang sighed softly and said, "In two days, I will have someone send you back to the capital." Tanggu Town is a small place, and you can't get used to Furong. ”
"Auntie, don't drive me away! I'm used to it, I'm used to it! Xia Furong suddenly panicked. Back to the capital? The master of the General's Mansion in the capital will definitely not send her back to the General's Mansion when she goes out, it must be to send her back to the Xia family. She is already thirteen years old, and if she is sent back to the Xia family, she will definitely be given to a high-powered official as a concubine in exchange for benefits for the Xia family. After the old lady's death, the Xia family became more and more chaotic and dirty......
Mrs. Fang saw that the beating was almost done, and hoped that this niece would do it herself. She said lightly: "If you don't go back, you must be prepared to endure hardships." Remember, I'm not here to enjoy happiness, but to make your uncle run an errand without any worries! ”
"I remember, aunt!" Xia Furong's voice choked, this was not pretending, she was really scared.
"Godmother, didn't you tell your godfather before you came?" Yu Xiaocao saw that Xia Furong had also been taught a lesson, so she hurriedly took Mrs. Fang's hand, shook it gently, and said.
Mrs. Fang stroked her little head and led her to the inner courtyard, saying, "Yes! I was going to surprise your godfather. How do you know I didn't say it beforehand? ”
"Godfather went to Fucheng on a business trip today! If I knew that Godmother you were here today, Godfather would definitely not be willing to leave your ......" Yu Xiaocao raised her head with a smile, her eyes were frank, she didn't deliberately flatter, nor did she cautiously tempt.
It's as if she has regarded Mrs. Fang as her closest relative, no matter what she says or does, her closest relatives will not really be angry with her. Mrs. Fang finally figured out why she always felt that there was a layer of separation in Xia Furong......
Mrs. Fang lightly knocked on Xiaocao's head, and pretended to be angry and said, "Good your little girl, the guts have fattened you!" I actually dare to joke that my godmother is here!! When your godfather comes back, I'm going to sue you! ”
Yu Xiaocao showed a little woman's frightened expression, and deliberately said in a trembling voice: "Don't! If my godfather knew that I had offended you, my godmother, he would have to break my leg...... Ga Niang's life~~~~"
Mrs. Fang was amused by her excellent singing and songwriting performance, and her face could no longer be stiffened, and she burst out laughing. She squatted down, hugged Xiaocao's thin and soft body into her arms, and said with a smile: "You quirky little girl, why are you so interesting?" No wonder your godfather is full of praise for you! ”
Xia Furong, who followed behind the two, was about to tear the handkerchief in her hand at this time. My aunt had never treated her so affectionately, and no matter how hard she tried to make herself what her aunt liked, there was always a barrier between her and her. Why! Why is it that the lowly girl who met for the first time can get the unreserved love of her aunt?
The godmother's hug, but Yu Xiaocao couldn't bear it, she screamed out: "It hurts, it hurts!" Godmother, my back hurts!! ”
Mrs. Fang remembered that the little girl had an injury on her back, so she was busy hugging Yu Xiaocao like a child, and walked quickly towards the back room.
Yu Xiaocao sat in the crook of the godmother's arm, hugged the godmother's neck, and was speechless in her heart: she was almost ten years old, and she still held her like a two- or three-year-old child, which made people see it, how embarrassing! However, the godmother looks soft and weak, and she is quite energetic, is it because her husband sings and follows her wife and learns martial arts from her godfather?
"Madame, let me come!" Mrs. Fang's proud girl was exquisite, and she was busy taking over Yu Xiaocao.
"No, it's not two steps, I'll just hold it!" Mrs. Fang was reluctant to let go of the fragrant and soft little girl in her arms, if she had a daughter, she should be so delicate and cute, right?
