Chapter 40: The Old Lady's Thoughts

Chu Xi knew very well how to chat with Chu Li would make her very happy, and when Old Lady Chu came over, she heard her laughter at the door.

"Big girl, you're very lively here." Before Mrs. Chu entered the courtyard, she had already taken a full view of the situation in the courtyard, such a dilapidated small courtyard, the big girl around her lived better than this.

Although he knew it, he didn't say it.

Chu Xi hurriedly greeted him and saluted: "Grandmother's New Year is auspicious!" ”

Bai Xue glanced at the old lady's eyes, and stepped forward to help her up with a smile: "Why is the eldest lady wearing such a thin dress?" ”

Chu Xi pursed her lips slightly: "I took the old clothes after taking a bath, I don't feel cold when there is a charcoal fire in the house, I didn't expect my grandmother to come at this time, I will go and put on new clothes......" Chu Xi said that she was about to go to the inner room, and Chu Li hurriedly pulled her down: "Why don't you change into new clothes after bathing?" ”

Chu Xi seemed to be a little embarrassed, and Lu Ya said: "My young lady only has two sets of new clothes, one was wet before, and the other is that the young lady wants to keep to wear when she goes out, so as not to embarrass the Prime Minister." ”

"What do you mean?" Chu Li is a clever one: "It's good that my sister-in-law called me a second aunt, and I have to prepare a box of clothes for her for this." ”

Bai Xue also felt a little sorry for Chu Xi, a young lady from the prime minister's house, who even had to wear a new set of clothes when she went out.

Old Madam Chu's eyes moved, pushed Chu Kan's hand away and grabbed Chu Xi: "It's cold outside, sit in the house." ”

When Chu Li saw the old lady's movements, he knew that she was now on Chu Xi's side, and his smile became bigger and bigger. When she entered the house, Chu Kan grabbed her: "Big brother is not happy that we are here, let's go out." ”

Chu Li glared at him with hatred: "Look at your cowardly appearance." With that, he lifted the thick curtain and walked in.

The furnishings in the house are also very simple, but they are clean and refreshing, and the old lady also has a little smile on her face: "The eldest girl is fourteen years old this year?" ”

"It's coming." Chu Xi smiled, a pair of bright eyes made the old lady shake, and then smiled: "Your eyes are really exactly the same as your mother, she always looks at me like this, and she comes to talk to me and make me laugh when she has nothing to do." ”

Chu Xi could see that she liked her biological mother, and maybe she was just thinking about her mother's love when she was alive.

"Zhen Zhen is as big as you, although the poetry and songs are all incomprehensible, and people are also born beautiful and lovely, but in the end it is not as stable as you." Old Madam Chu said.

Chu Xi lowered her brows and didn't answer, the old lady didn't know if she was alluding to the fact that she deliberately connived at the falling water or something else? That's it, now she just needs An An to be a helpless young lady who has just returned from the mountain.

Seeing that she didn't speak, the old lady's eyes darkened: "What kind of husband do you want to marry in the future?" ”

Chu Ji's palms tightened slightly, but Chu Li's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "The daughter of the Xiangfu family, she must marry a good young talent." ”

Old Madam Chu smiled and said nothing, only looked at Chu Xi, Chu Xi knew that she would not stop if she didn't ask for a reason today, but she also opened her mouth: "As long as you are willing to treat your child wholeheartedly, it's fine." ”

"Single-mindedly?" Old Madam Chu's face was a little relieved: "If you marry a good man from a small family, I'm afraid it's possible." ”

"Then you can marry into a small household."

"Why doesn't the girl understand, the old lady is thinking about it for you, you can do it, you have to go to the small family, when you pass, you have to worry about firewood, rice, oil and salt all day long?" White snow courses.

Chu Xi smiled, the old lady wanted to send her away, she naturally had to make some seemingly ordinary but difficult to make a request, and she would never leave easily before those people paid the price.

"In the mountains, I worry about food, clothing, cold and warmth every day, if I only need to worry about firewood, rice, oil and salt, then it's good." Chu Xi's face was crimson, as if she was shy.

The old lady looked at her, and her thoughts wavered, but a teenage girl's mind could be more careful than her? Impossible.

"Then I'll send someone tomorrow to teach you how to be a female celebrity and keep accounts, how about it? Since then, you have obediently stayed in the backyard, and your father and eldest brother have caused a lot of trouble because of your affairs. Old Madam Chu's eyes were complicated.

Chu Xi smiled shyly, got up and gave a blessing: "Thank you grandmother for your love." ”

She now understands this grandmother's thoughts, she doesn't want her to die in the Prime Minister's Mansion and drag down the future of Chu Bingsong and her grandson, nor does she want her to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the person sent tomorrow is just an old lady's eyeliner left by her side.

Chu Xi sneered in her heart, and the last trace of longing for family affection that floated in her heart was all broken.
