The news that Xia Lanchu was coming back had already spread throughout the mansion, but at this time, when everyone saw her, they still couldn't help but be a little surprised, and when they looked at it more, they felt that there was something different about her.

Xia Qianwei noticed Xia Lanchu's smiling gaze, and immediately met the other party's gaze calmly.

She was wearing a warm yellow and elegant lotus leaf jacket, and a delicate jade bead hairpin pinned to her gentle hair, which echoed the jade pendant on her ear, and then looked at the mutton fat white jade bracelet on the snow lotus-like wrist, even if Xia Lanchu wanted to make a low posture, the brilliance inadvertently revealed under her eyes still made her whole person exude a different kind of nobility.

Xia Qianwei's heart moved, I really didn't know who Xia Lanchu had come into contact with in these days in Lei Ruo Temple.

Although the jewelry on her body is simple, the style and jade quality are made in sets, which seem to be worth a lot of money, which is not something that ordinary large families can have.

At this time, the old lady's smile was a little restrained, and she responded in a slightly cold tone, "Since you are back, you will have a good New Year." ”

As soon as the words fell, her eyes searched the hall again, and Aunt Ruan immediately stood up and spoke first, "Old lady, the fifth young master is trapped by miscellaneous things in the army, and the sixth young master wants to stay in the academy to fight for the spring exam, and he will not come back." ”

Wen glanced at Aunt Ruan from the corner of his eye without a trace, and sneered in his heart, this slut really regards himself as the master?

Take the chicken feather as an arrow, and when your body is better, you must take care of this thing that you robbed while it is hot!

The old lady's eyes seemed to be a little disappointed, Xia Qianwei helped her sit down, and said softly and comfortingly, "Grandmother, the male son is ambitious in all directions, and the fifth and sixth brothers are also thinking about glorifying the lintel for the Xia family, and besides, with the granddaughters accompanying you, you won't be lonely, right?"

"You girl, you still blame your grandmother for being hypocritical!" The old lady pretended to be angry and patted the back of Xia Qianwei's hand, but her eyes were full of spoiling, and the young ladies on the side were envious.

There was a burst of laughter all around, and everyone took their seats one after another, Xia Lanchu's eyes flashed a fine light, and she took this opportunity to step forward.

"The third sister said very well, Lan Chu specially made a few Chinese New Year's Eve dishes for his grandmother in order to fulfill his filial piety. She gave a glance, and several maidservants lined up with exquisite plates, and a rich aroma accompanied by a steaming hot mist overflowed her nose.

Xia Le, who had been gritting her teeth secretly, couldn't help but light up in her eyes, and she exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Grandmother is really blessed, isn't this a bear's paw? and shark fin bird's nest...... The fourth sister's craftsmanship is really good! Hey, I heard that the third sister also made a few dishes for her grandmother, but why are they all green vegetables and tofu?"

From the beginning, Xia Le couldn't wait to poke a hole in Xia Qianwei's face, and now she can only spread a thick layer of powder to cover the hateful scar before she dares to come out to meet people, but why can the third sister who harmed herself into such a field attract attention?

Maybe it's just a grandiose remark to send her aunt away, why is she the only one in the entire general's mansion who suffers, and even her twin sister, who has always been obedient, seems to have changed and started to look at the third sister, she is unwilling!

For a moment, all eyes were focused on the plate of light and green dishes in front of the old lady, and they were all a little surprised.

Xia Qianwei naturally felt Xia Le's strong hostility, she just smiled lightly and met Xia Yihai's puzzled gaze, "Qianwei's cooking skills are not good, and she really can't compare to these delicacies of the fourth sister." ”

"I'm afraid, it's not careful, right? The third sister is loved a lot on weekdays, why is she so stingy at a critical moment. ”

Xia Le was unwilling to give up, Aunt Ruan and Xia Qing secretly pulled her several times, but they still couldn't stop the mouth.

Xia Changfeng opened his mouth to help, "Over the years, I have traveled all over the country, and the third sister wanted to make my grandmother eat deliciously, so she chased me to study the special vegetarian foods in various places. ”

Isn't that a good idea?

The smile on Wen's face stiffened for a moment, she only heard the next person hide that Xia Changfeng came back this time and suffered a small injury, and Xia Qianwei was in charge of taking care of him for a few days, although she knew that he was such a character, but she still couldn't listen to her child helping the cheap girl talk.

Xia Lanchu pretended not to care, and personally sandwiched a few dishes for the old lady and put them in the bowl, "Grandmother tried this red mushroom stewed monkey brain, but my granddaughter has been guarding the purple casserole since this morning, for fear of losing the heat." ”

"Lan Chu is really sensible, didn't he copy the scriptures for your grandmother and pray for blessings?"

Wen couldn't help but open her mouth, but she didn't want to make a noise, the old lady who had been holding back her emotions suddenly threw the spoon in her hand, and her angry expression startled everyone.

"Grandmother, grandmother?"

"With such a pair of killing hands, you still dare to copy scriptures, do you want to break my life?!"

Mama Lei frowned, and she looked like she wanted to speak and stopped from the beginning, "Fourth Miss I'm afraid I don't know, the old lady has been a vegetarian since yesterday." ”

Previously, the eldest young master was poisoned and unconscious, and the old lady prayed to the Buddha that as long as the eldest young master could spend this time safely, she would eat fast and repay her vows at this time of year in the future, who knew that the fourth young lady would do such a bloody thing as soon as she came back, and she would also have a monkey brain? Isn't this equivalent to slapping the old lady in the face in front of the Buddha!

"Why, why didn't anyone tell me?" After hearing this, Xia Lanchu's face turned pale for a moment, and he couldn't help but look at his mother, and Wen was also flustered and dazed.

The mother and daughter subconsciously looked at Xia Qianwei, only to see her smiling and lowering her eyebrows and looking like she had nothing to do with herself, and suddenly understood, could it be that she was the one who got in the way and instigated the old lady to change her habits?

"Grandmother is also for our children and grandchildren, the fourth sister has a heart, these rare beasts are afraid that they are not easy to come by, right?"

Xia Qianwei's words made the old lady's displeasure even worse, I thought that sending her to Lei Ruo Temple could change her arrogant habits, but who knew that she would be so extravagant and wasteful as soon as she came back!

"How did you get these innocent mountain beasts? I heard that the monks of Lei Ruo Temple often treat some creatures in the forest, could it be that you deceived them and took those ......?"

Thinking of such a possibility, the old lady almost burst into a rage.

At this time, Xia Lanchu knelt down in horror and explained again and again, "Granddaughter doesn't dare! ”

Xia Qianwei's expression suddenly became a little lost, she bit her lower lip slightly, as if she was struggling with something, and then stood up and knelt down in front of the old lady.

"Qianwei, you are ......"

"Grandmother, granddaughter is just touching the scene, a few days ago I went to the bamboo garden to see the eldest brother and Aunt Su who are not full of food and clothing, I am afraid that there is nothing to eat on this Chinese New Year's Eve. The eldest brother tested the poison for the second brother, but I don't know if my grandmother would be willing to show mercy and send these mountain treasures to the bamboo garden, which would be regarded as a reward......

Wen's expression couldn't help but change, his eyes flickered and he looked at Xia Yihai and the old lady nervously, and he really saw that their eyes were a little surprised.

"Can't eat enough and don't have enough clothing......? What do you mean?"
