Chapter 53: Arrogance in the bones
Chu Bingsong looked at Chu Xi, his face became more and more complicated, for this daughter, he felt that she was extremely smart and a model of the son he wanted in his heart, but she was not from Qin Xue, let alone a man, and now she was still against him everywhere.
"Dale said, didn't you mean to hurt it?" Chu Bingsong's tone was indifferent.
Chu Xi stood upright and lowered her eyes: "Thank you Fourth Sister for being willing to clarify." ”
Chu Dai'er's face was pale, she didn't apply powder, and her big watery eyes were full of softness: "What words of thanks did the big sister say to me, it was my fault, I shouldn't have taken the dagger to you, and I hope the big sister doesn't blame me." ”
Chu Bingsong glanced at Chu Dai'er, and saw that her appearance was becoming more and more similar to her mother, and she was the most well-behaved and gentle, so she felt pity in her heart: "Okay, you came here on purpose, and apologized, go back and rest." ”
"What about the big sister?" Chu Dai'er looked at Chu Bingsong pleadingly.
Chu Bingsong didn't even bother to look at Chu Xi: "Since the ancestral hall is not safe, let her go back." ”
"Thank you, Daddy." Chu Xi smiled and saluted, and said: "The fire in the ancestral hall, Zhen Zhen came the fastest, and it was thanks to her that the fire was extinguished so quickly, only the door of the ancestral hall was burned, and I will go back to learn from the fourth sister to see her and thank her for saving her life." ”
Chu Dai'er smiled as if she hadn't heard anything, but Chu Bingsong glanced at Chu Xi with dissatisfaction and left with a calm face. The ancestral hall is the resting place of the ancestors, the lifeblood of the fortune of a house, if someone maliciously destroys it, he will definitely not easily bypass it, but Chu Xi's words, the biggest suspect is Chu Zhenzhen.
Chu Zhenzhen didn't know that she had done something stupid at this time, and she was losing her temper at Li Xiao's sudden disappearance, and when she turned around, she saw the news from Ying'er: "Miss, I inquired, it turned out that my cousin suffered some cold yesterday and couldn't move, so I didn't go, and when the slave maid went to ask, I saw that Li Gongzi was packing up the Zhu Hai jewelry he was carrying, and I was afraid that I would take it over to make amends to Miss." ”
When Chu Zhenzhen heard this, she covered her lips and chuckled, lazily started from the warm couch, and her white fingers twisted a string of beads of clams in her hand, but she still couldn't hide the smugness on her face: "What are his things in the countryside so rare, he just gave them to me, and I don't want them." ”
After that, he raised his head and looked at Ying'er, and held his hair in the bun: "Look, have I brought all this hairpin?" ”
"Okay, Miss looks good with anything, no one can compare." Ying'er smiled.
Chu Zhenzhen snorted softly from her nose: "You go and wait outside, you stop me for a while when he comes, and I don't forgive him so easily." ”
"Got it." Ying'er smiled coquettishly, turned her head and went to the door to wait, planning to give Li Xiao a closed door.
At this end, Li Xiao took the things out of the door and went directly to the left, followed by the little guy with the umbrella and was stunned: "Childe, the yard of the second lady is here." ”
Li Xiao's face was indifferent: "I know." With that, the pace of his feet quickened a little.
The second monk was confused, and when he arrived at the Zhujin Courtyard, he saw Li Xiao respectfully bowing his hand: "I'm tired of going to pass the word, and I said that Li Xiao has something to do and wants to see the eldest sister." ”
The mother-in-law at the door raised her eyebrows, and hurriedly glanced at the mother-in-law on the side, and then turned her head and went in.
Chu Xi seemed to have known that Li Xiao was back, and the tea was ready for the green buds, but she said to the mother-in-law: "Tell my cousin, just say that the past is over, let him not mind." ”
The mother-in-law didn't know what to do, but seeing that she didn't want to explain, she had to retreat.
Green Bud was puzzled, and said while adding something to the charcoal brazier: "Didn't Miss wait for him to come, why didn't you see him again?" ”
Chu Xi put down a book in her hand and picked up the hand warmer: "Although Li Xiao loves Chu Zhenzhen, but he is very arrogant in his bones, if I easily accept his thanks, then he will not take this matter to heart, and he may not be able to do it wholeheartedly if he wants to ask him for help in the future, if so, last night's hard work will not be in vain." ”
Green Sprouts didn't seem to understand, Chu Xi smiled, didn't say more, and after a while, the mother-in-law opened the curtain and came in, and her tone was dissatisfied: "People still refuse to leave, I said Miss, you can see it, save the old slave from running around like this." ”
Lu Ya wanted to scold this mother-in-law who didn't know the rules, but Chu Xi said good-naturedly: "Then bring him in." ”
