Chapter 678: Greetings (Part II)

To say that Miss Jiang is only four or five years older than Young Master Xue at most, the two are considered to be the same generation. But one is a full salute and the other is a half salute, and this etiquette is a little meaningful.

For people of the same generation, there is no need to give a full salute, but Xue Qingyan gave a full salute to Miss Jiang; And for those who are short of their own generation, they don't need to return the full courtesy, and Miss Jiang actually returned a half-courtesy.

Mrs. Xun lightly bumped Li Xin's elbow, and when she saw Li Xin looking over, she gave her a look, probably saying, "Look, I'm right." ”

Li Xin smiled slightly, but pondered in his heart.

Does Xue Qingyan's move mean that he also knows what Old Lady Xue means, and he agrees with it in his heart?

If this is the case, then Aunt Luo is really helpless.

Mrs. Xue took the lead, Xue Qian acquiesced, Xue Qingyan did not object, the three masters of the Xue family had no objections, no matter how much Aunt Luo jumped, it would be useless, once Xue Qian's marriage to the stepfamily was announced, it would be ironclad, and Aunt Luo had to give way, from the only concubine who was the only one to the concubine who was stared at by the main mother. The changes in it, if you are not in it, I am afraid that you don't know what it feels like.

The maid took the pestle and asked Xue Qingyan to sit down with Mrs. Xue, and Mrs. Xue kindly asked him a few questions, so she didn't leave him and let him go out to greet guests with his father.

Xue Qingyan got up and saluted the old lady, and glanced at it, but just saw Li Xin smiling.

Youyou was playing with Li Xin's fingers and had a lot of fun, and Li Xin also let her play, as long as she didn't make a fuss, looking at Youyou with a smile.

That picture was really warm in Xue Qingyan's eyes.

Xue Qingyan paused, walked a few steps to stand in front of Li Xin, and shouted, "Aunt Guan." ”

Li Xin looked up a little surprised, and then smiled: "Qingyan still has to go to greet the guests, don't delay you." ”

Xue Qingyan's eyes fell on Youyou, and when he saw that the little girl also looked at him, he was immediately very happy, and he was groping around on his body, thinking that he wanted to find a small thing for Youyou to play with.

Li Xin hurriedly stopped: "Don't find anything for her to hold, you will easily not come back when it comes to her." ”

Xue Qingyan was happy, stretched out his hand and rubbed it, and asked Li Xin, "Aunt Guan, can I hug my sister?" ”

Li Xin was embarrassed, and subconsciously looked towards Mrs. Xue's side, but saw that Mrs. Xue seemed to be saying something to Miss Jiang beside her, and she didn't pay attention to this, so she nodded and said, "It's okay for you to hug her, but don't delay you going out to greet guests, there are still some officials over there, presumably your father also wants you to deal with them." ”

Xue Qingyan only nodded vigorously, stretched out his hands to the armpit of Youyou, and held Youyou in his arms steadily, letting Youyou sit with one hand and holding Youyou's back with the other.

Xue Qingyan only felt that the little girl in his arms was soft and gentle, and what came to his nose was also the unique milk fragrance of the little baby. The black pearl-like eyes looked at him, not noisy or struggling, and slowly leaned into his face to "chirp" for a while, then cracked his mouth and smiled, and lowered his head to play with his fingers.

At that moment, it was as if his heart was about to melt.

How he wished he could have a sister like this little girl......

"Yoyo, come down and let Brother Qingyan get busy." Li Xin patted Youyou's calf, looked at her, called out softly, and stretched out her hands to her.

Guozi hurriedly picked up Youyou and hugged him, Xue Qingyan calmed down, scratched his head and said, "Aunt Guan, I'll come to play with my sister when I'm done...... Oh yes, Yang Er is also ahead, I will take care of him more. ”

Li Xin didn't understand the meaning of Xue Qingyan's words for a while, but Xue Qingyan had already squeezed his little hand and hurriedly went out.

Mrs. Xun asked Li Xin curiously, "Do you know the young master of the Xue family?" ”

"Yes, I know." Li Xin said with a smile: "At that time, the bandits were running around, and Qingyan went to live in our village for more than ten days. ”

Mrs. Xun smiled and said, "The young master of the Xue family is really a sensible child, I can see that he respects you a lot." ”

Li Xin smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Xue sat down slightly, and then said that she was tired, and let everyone take care of herself. Miss Jiang helped her back to the room to rest, and when Mrs. Xue passed by Li Xin's side, she stopped her steps, looked at Youyou and said with a smile: "This girl is so well-behaved, beautiful, is she Madame's daughter?" ”

Li Xin nodded with a smile: "The old lady is too famous, she is only so small, you can see where she is good." ”

Mrs. Xue seems to really like Youyou: "I just saw that Qingyan likes this little girl very much, and now I look at it myself, and I also think that this little girl is very suitable for my eyes." How old are you? Can you take a serious name? ”

Li Xin said: "At the age of two, his big name is Guan Yu makeup, and his nickname is Youyou." ”

"Well, that's a nice name."

Old Madam Xue praised again, and only then did she take her steps and plan to leave, but she paused after taking two steps, turned her head and looked at Li Xin carefully, and then suddenly took a secret breath.

Seeing Li Xin looking at herself, Mrs. Xue hurriedly smiled and said, "Madame is at her own convenience, and the old body will be less accompanied." ”

Li Xin hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

The ladies and wives are idle and bored, touching the pai gow and playing the horse hanging. Mrs. Xun is a lover of horse hanging, of course she will not let go of this opportunity, and pulled Li Xin to let her play too. Li Xin sat beside Mrs. Xun to accompany her after resigning as usual, and instructed Qingya to ask Guan Wen and Yang'er about the situation on the way.

After a while, Qingya came back and said to Li Xin: "It seems that Xue Ye and Young Master Xue are talking to those officials over there, and the young master is talking to those officials and masters, and the young master is following Young Master Xue's side......" Qingya said in a low voice: "Young Master told me that he saw the big official who followed the young master of the Wen family not long ago, and the big official still recognized him today, so he also followed Young Master Xue and talked to the big official." ”

Li Xin immediately understood what Xue Qingyan meant when he left, saying that he would take care of Yang'er.

"What kind of official?" Li Xin asked in a low voice, "Have you asked clearly?" ”

Qingya nodded: "The young master saw me looking over there, so he came out to talk to me." Qingya said: "But the young master said that the last time he saw the big official, he felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he didn't mention it to anyone, for fear that others would say that he wanted to cling to the powerful or something." Today, the big official recognized the young master, and the young master was also surprised......

Li Xin was also surprised, and wondered: "Can the official know Yang'er?" ”

Qingya also said: "The slave also thinks it is strange, but the young master said so." ”

After thinking about it, Qingya slapped her head again and said, "By the way, the young master said that the official master's surname is Su, and he also told the slave and maid that those officials and masters all look at that Lord Su, as if Lord Su is the most powerful." ”

Li Xin frowned: "The surname is Su...... Then have you asked about the official position of Lord Su? ”

"I asked, the young master said what kind of work and what kind of work."

"Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Works?"

"Yes, yes, that's what the young master said!" Qingya nodded hurriedly.

Li Xin, a member of the Ministry of Labor, has no idea that Li Xin, a member of the Ministry of Labor, is a few officials, but since other officials and masters are looking forward to this Lord Su, presumably the official position is not low. At the very least, real power carries a lot of weight.

Sue......

Li Xin suddenly remembered that Li Ming wrote back to say that he met a Master Su on the way...... Could it be that this Lord Su has something to do with that Lord Su?

"Ma'am?" Qingya asked in a low voice, "Do you want the slave to go and tell the young master something?" ”

Li Xin shook his head and said, "Yang'er is measured, there is no need to remind him of anything, besides, there is Qingyan by his side...... By the way, you just said young master, what about the master? ”

"The master and a few friends were chatting, and the slave saw that there was nothing wrong, so they didn't go over."

Li Xin nodded.

Time passed quickly, and the Xue Mansion birthday banquet was finally coming to an end. Yang'er followed Guan Wen excitedly, babbling to him about how majestic and heroic the official master she had seen. Guan Wen smiled and said, "Then you will also take the imperial examination to become an official in the future?" ”

Yang'er nodded and said with a smile: "When I study medicine to a certain extent, I must go to the imperial hospital." My fifth aunt told me that I could take the imperial examination first, and then take the imperial hospital after I became famous, so that people would not look down on me when I entered the imperial hospital. ”

Guan Wen smiled and encouraged him for a few words, before turning his gaze to Li Xin, reaching out to wrap his arms around her waist and asking, "How do you feel today?" ”

"It's okay, it's good, Mrs. Xun is on the side to take care of me." Li Xin said with a smile.

"That's good." After a pause, Guan Wen asked, "Can you see Mrs. Shen?" ”

Li Xin shook his head: "I heard that I was suffering from the cold and couldn't go to congratulate Mrs. Xue on her birthday, but the Shen family gave a generous gift, and I think it was Mrs. Shen who made up for the regret that she couldn't get there." ”

Guan Wen nodded and sighed: "Wherever I went in the past, I followed Shen Siye by my side. There's no one with me anymore......"

"Fourth Master Shen is doing well." Li Xin asked as she walked.

Guan Wendao: "He brought two letters, and the letters said that he was doing well, without the interference of those familiar people and familiar things, and he was accompanying Mrs. Shen Si to recover her senses." He said that Mrs. Shen Si had already shown some signs of improvement. ”

Li Xin sighed and said, "Fourth Mrs. Shen is also lucky, Fourth Master Shen is willing to treat her like this, it is extremely rare." ”

"He's a good guy." After a moment of silence, Guan Wen said like this.

The guests said goodbye one by one and left, Xue Qingyan saw the guests out at the door, and when he saw Guan Wen and Li Xin coming out, Xue Qingyan's eyes lit up, first greeted Guan Wen and Li Xin honestly, and then winked at Yang'er, and his eyes were projected on Youyou.

Xue Qingyan said regretfully: "Aunt Guan, when I have to be free, I will go to your house to see my sister." ”

Li Xin smiled: "Okay, you will come when you are free." ”

Xue Qingyan's love for Youyou is beyond words, which is what makes Li Xin embarrassed - Xue Qingyan is indifferent and even hostile to his own sister Xue Zidie, but to Youyou, an outsider, it is like loving his own sister.

On the carriage home, Yang'er was still tirelessly describing the scene of meeting the big official with Guan Wen and Li Xin. Guan Wen listened interestingly, and would ask him some questions from time to time, and Yang'er answered them in turn.

However, one of the things Yang'er said surprised Li Xin.

Yang'er said that during the chat, he accidentally said that his little aunt and uncle were separated, and Master Su asked him a few words.

"I always feel like I've seen this Su-sama." Yang'er said: "I think he is so familiar. ”
