Chapter 11: The Uninvited Guest

After thinking about it, Li and Xue Qiaoling also arrived one after another, and after inviting An, they sat aside and greeted the old lady, but Xue Qiaoling sat beside the old lady very intimately, full of flattery.

"Why hasn't this Lin family arrived today......" Looking at the hourglass placed on the high platform, the old lady couldn't help but squint, a little displeased.

Xue Qiaoling smiled unabated, "Grandma don't blame, my mother may have delayed on the road, and Qiaoling will compensate her grandmother for her mother." With that, Xue Qiaoling got up and knelt down in front of the old lady, and kowtowed obediently.

"Okay, okay, the old body didn't say that she was to blame, why are you in a hurry to plead with her. The old lady twisted her eyebrows slightly, and her tone was a little distressed, "It's cold on the ground, don't hurt your body." ”

Xue Qiaoling smiled coquettishly, got up hurriedly, and snuggled up to the old lady again.

Lin is late, but today she is dressed up a little more glamorous than before.

"Don't be surprised by the old lady, the concubine fell asleep this morning, and the old man actually told Qingluo's girl not to disturb me, so she almost slept through the hour. Lin fell to the ground and reported tremblingly, seemingly explaining, but there was another message secretly revealed in his words.

To be precise, it was a message that Xu Lianshuang deliberately heard.

Xue Hainiang lowered her eyebrows and chuckled, how could she not hear the beacon fire and wolf smoke burning in these words, it seems that this mansion will be lively in the future.

It's a pity that she has to enter the palace and can't accompany her mother to watch this good show.

After thinking about it, Xue Hainiang didn't forget to secretly glance at Xu Lianshuang on her side, and sure enough, the person who was as pure as a snow lotus and as fragile as white paper was trembling when he heard this.

He sneered secretly in his heart, but there was a hint of sympathy.

In this house, whether it is the Lin family, the Xu family, or even the former mother, how can they not give their sincerity to this affectionate man?

"That's it, it's not yet time. The old lady waved her hand, a little helpless in her tiredness, "Now that Lianshuang is pregnant, the Lin family, the Li family." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the Li family, who had been sitting quietly for a long time, "You two are old men who are serving Jing Zheng's side, but you can both fight for it and add a man to my Xue family, otherwise, who should inherit the foundation of this Xue Mansion?"

"Yes. The Lin and Li families all got up and bowed their heads in response.

After the old lady was tired and dismissed, Xue Hainiang took Mingxi, Scarlet Moon and other four girls back to Furong Garden with the Li family, pestering the Li family to share a breakfast before instructing Mingxi to send the Li family back to Qiushuiju.

With nothing to do, Xue Hainiang was interested in practicing calligraphy, and immediately instructed Feiyue to prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Slender Slender held a wolf pen in his hand, spread out the snow-white and dust-free rice paper, and was extremely attentive to each stroke.

In a moment, on the snow-white and dust-free rice paper, the word 'An' appeared.

After a while, I saw Mingxi holding an invitation, lifting the pearl curtain and entering, and Xue Hainiang, who was practicing calligraphy with a wolf pen behind the bookcase, was blessed, "The slave maid has seen Miss, and on the way to the slave maid, I happened to bump into the little guy who delivered the letter, saying that it was sent to Miss by the Liang Mansion." ”

Liangfu ......

Xue Hainiang's mind immediately appeared that the soft and graceful woman, dressed in a white shirt, seemed to be a fairy who had inadvertently stepped into the world.

"Give it to me. Xue Hainiang put down her pen, flicked her sleeve, and took the letter handed by Mingxi.

After a cursory look, Xue Hainiang roughly knew what it meant.

"It was Miss Liang who invited me to go to Kyaukyue Lake tonight. The red lips raised a slight smile.

"If the young lady makes up her mind to go, the slave maid will take a bath and change clothes and make up for the young lady. Mingxi Xing's eyes were smiling, looking at her with great interest, but she still paid more attention than Xue Hainiang.

"I have nothing to do, since she kindly invited me, I just went. There is no need to be so grand, Miss Liang is a simple and elegant person, and she can ...... if she is pure" After thinking for a moment, Xue Hainiang replied: "Some time ago, I looked at the Xiangfei color Shu brocade sent by my mother, which seems to be good, so let's wear that one today." ”

Mingxi should be good on the face, but secretly he didn't forget to mutter, how could Miss like such plain colors so much, the young lady of the other family, which one is not wearing heavy makeup, wearing red and green, and the young lady looks a little shabby compared to Xue Qiaoling.

Later in the evening, Mingxi and the two second-class maids in the Furong Garden, Scarlet Moon and Yushu prepared hot water for Xue Hainiang together, one holding the Xiangfei colored Shu brocade and brocade embroidered shoes, and the other holding a basket of dried rose petals, Hou was outside the screen, and only Mingxi was left in the screen to change clothes and bathe for Xue Hainiang.

At three o'clock, Xue Hainiang stepped out of the bath bucket, put on profane clothes, and then took the Xiangfei-colored Shu brocade outside the screen from Mingxi, and wrapped it layer by layer.

With black hair and a shawl, she walked to the dresser and sat down, and Mingxi waited for her hair to put on makeup.

Scarlet Moon Yushu is waiting to the side.

Mingxi is a skillful person, and before half an hour, he pulled Xue Hainiang's hair and put on good makeup.

The person in the bronze mirror has his black hair lightly pulled, and the cheek side seems to intentionally have two strands of hair, which further highlights his petite face.

"Missβ€”" A voice as clear and pleasant as flowing water came in.

A pink fir girl walked in, came behind Xue Hainiang and bowed, "Miss Yu, the carriage is ready." ”

Xue Hainiang is not as high-profile as the daughter of an ordinary official eunuch, as soon as she leaves the house, she hugs her back and forth, and this time she is invited just to take Mingxi, a personal girl.

Although the Furong Garden is more magnificent than the ordinary courtyards in the Xue Mansion, it is not so spacious that it looks empty, and it can be completed in less than two quarters of an hour with the most ordinary footsteps.

Xue Hainiang took Mingxi to the outside of Furong Garden, walked on the nine-curved corridor, looking at the rockery and gurgling water, but her heart was inexplicably tired.

"Sister--" A melodious and crisp female voice like a silver bell sounded, recalling Xue Hainiang's long-awaited thoughts.

Xue Hainiang chuckled at the corner of her lips, smiled lightly, and said a little more politely, "It's Sister Qiaoling." ”

Xue Qiaoling came in steps, her delicate jade face was full of smiles, she owed a debt, and gave a salute, "My sister just passed by my sister's Furong Garden, and I wanted to go inside to enjoy the step shake of my grandmother's reward, but I didn't expect the maid to reply that my sister was going to go out of the house, and it was this hour, I don't know where my sister is going?"

Xue Hainiang didn't think that Liang Bairou's appointment needed to be hidden from her, so she said truthfully: "Miss Liang invited me to go to Kyaukyue Lake for a gathering. ”

Xue Qiaoling was stunned when she heard this, and then Yurong burst into a smile like a flower, and her eyes were a little flattering, "Sister, I'm so bored here, I wonder if my sister can pick up my sister?"

Mingxi secretly sneered, feeling a little inexplicable, and was about to open his mouth to say something, but was secretly stopped by Xue Hainiang's eyes.
