Chapter XII

Jia Xuan stood up thoughtfully, and listened to Ping'er asking, "How did the fifth girl notice these pots?" But how is it different from the others? ”

Jia Xuan stared at the faintly visible debris on the soil of the flower pots, and if he didn't look closely, he couldn't notice it, and said casually: "The flower pots I saw under my mother's window are the same as these ones, so I naturally think they are better looking than the ones next to me." ”

A few maids passing by in the courtyard laughed.

Ping'er glared at them, and they hurriedly lowered their heads and continued to do things.

The little maid who led the way was also laughing, but it was kind: "The fifth girl has good eyesight." At that time, the second grandmother said that she wanted to give the eldest lady a few pots, and it happened that the second master and Zhao'er were busy, so they brought the flower pots to the eldest lady in the car. ”

Ping'er bowed slightly at her appreciatively and gave her two money: "You take the girl out." ”

The little maid blessed her body and led the way with joy.

Guo's mother followed closely behind the girl.

Chunzhi pulled Xia Ye a few steps behind, and seeing that he was quite far away from the person in front, Chunzhi whispered, "You can be vigilant!" You and I are both given to the girl by my wife, if something really happens, you and I can't get out of it! I don't want to be dragged to death by you! ”

Xia Ye was not convinced: "What does she know?" But a fool. We just have to get a good deal with my wife, so why bother to keep our voices down in front of her. ”

"No matter how stupid you are, you are more honorable than you!" Chunzhi hated that iron could not become steel and said: "If you are still obsessed, I can't save you, just take care of me getting out by myself." With that, he quickened his pace and followed.

Jia Xuan knew that Guo's mother was strict-mouthed. Seeing that the two maids were walking behind, the little maid and the snow goose who led the way were talking and walking in the front, so they asked Guo's mother: "What do you usually put in the sachet on weekdays?" ”

"The left is just dried grass and flowers." Guo's mother was interested: "Does the girl want a sachet?" I'm clumsy, and I'm not very good at needlework. But there is a maid named Huoxiang in the wife's room, and her work is really good, and even someone in Rongguofu is looking for her help. When she comes back, let her make one for the girl. ”

Jia Xuan couldn't wait to talk more about Huoxiang, so he asked, "What do you like to put in Huoxiang as a sachet?" ”

"I saw that she made an autumn-colored one for Wang Shanbao's house, and it seemed to be some broken pieces that I didn't know what to do, and it smelled weird and good." Guo's mother said: "She is beautiful, a little bit of a young lady's temper, what said, 'Use different fragrances for different people, these spices for you are made by myself, each is different', and said that Wang Shanbao's suitable for calm and capable taste, so he gave it to her." ”

"What is the fragrance of Mother Wang? Has Guo's mother ever smelled it? ”

"Where do I dare to ask Wang Shanbao's family to come to smell it. But I've heard people say that it's very fragrant, like the smell of pine and cypress. ”

That's different from the one that Huoxiang wears around her waist. Since she likes to mix different scents for people, the one in the sachet is the only one.

The crumbs in the pot look similar to the ones in the sachets, and they smell the same. Since Mrs. Xing also has this smell in the flower pot under the window, it may also be mixed with this kind of crumbs.

Na Jia Lian is very suspicious. I don't know if the debris was deliberately put in to hide them, or if it was inadvertently that the debris got on his body and then rubbed into the soil in the basin.

Truth be told, it's more likely to be deliberately hidden. Because Jia Lian is said to be quite lazy on weekdays, he is never impatient to do things with his own hands. Such a person is willing to move flower pots with his hands, and he has moved so many pots in a row, who would believe him if he has no other thoughts?

Jia Xuan was thinking like this, and the person in front of him suddenly stopped.

She hurriedly stopped to avoid crashing.

Chunzhi rushed up from behind, pointed to the little maid and snow goose in front of him, and said angrily, "Why do you stop so suddenly? I'm not afraid of bumping into our girl. ”

Jia Xuan wanted to say that it was okay, but she didn't pay attention to it when she thought about it. But before she could speak, the snow goose on the other side had already begun to explain in a small voice.

"It's all my fault." Xue Yan lowered her head and touched it from her arms for a while, took out a small paper bag and handed it forward: "My girl stuffed snacks for me to bring to the fifth girl, saying that I was afraid that the girl would go late and go hungry." I was nervous about seeing my second grandmother before, and I forgot about it, but I just remembered it. ”

The small paper bag was wrapped in two pieces of rose crisp, and the crispy opening. Jia Xuan walked all the way and ate all the way, and he was in a very happy mood.

"Girl, you can't eat while walking like this. It's just in your own yard, this is Rongguo Mansion. Guo's mother couldn't help but mention worriedly: "This slag falls on the clothes, and it doesn't look good if it is stained, right?" ”

From time to time, Chunzhi ran two steps forward to wipe off the foam of the shortbread for the girl.

Xia Ye smiled: "Mom, you don't need to say more, if the girl understood, she would have been careful a long time ago." Isn't it that the girl doesn't notice? ”

Although her words are not very good, they have grown better than before. Jia Xuan glanced at her, and rarely opened her mouth: "Xia Ye said this well. ”

Xia Ye didn't expect to be praised by the girl, and her face turned red, but she was a little embarrassed: "I didn't say anything." It's just that my mother is nagging like this, how many times I say it is the same as not saying it, so I persuade it. ”

Jia Xuan sighed. This Xia Ye couldn't help but praise, just after praising it, he said a lot of words after looking at it.

A few people chatted with each other, and they arrived at Jia's mother's courtyard.

The mandarin duck was looking forward to it at the gate of the courtyard, and saw a little man coming over steadily, and opened his arms to let the people around him busy wiping the corners of his mouth and clothes, and couldn't help but smile and greet him: "The fifth girl is here, the old lady has been waiting for you for a long time, saying that she will wait for you to come and then set up a meal." ”

Jia Xuan asked, "Is Sister Lin here?" ”

"I'm here, I've been talking to the old lady."

Jia Xuan nodded.

She said that Jia Mu didn't particularly treat her, so how could she worry about waiting for her to come before setting up a meal. It must be Lin Daiyu thinking about her and saying this to Jia's mother, so that Jia's mother will continue to order.

The more I thought about it, the warmer it became in my heart, Jia Xuan sped up his steps and trotted into the house. As soon as she entered the door, she was dazzled by the pearls and greens in the house, she simply didn't look at anyone, and walked straight towards Jia's mother. smiled at Lin Daiyu who was sitting next to her, and then blessed Jia's mother: "My granddaughter has seen my ancestor, and my ancestor is safe." ”

Jia Mu wore a purple gold moire jacket today, wore a jujube red chrysanthemum with gold trim to wipe her forehead, and a red gold inlaid bat jade hairpin. She was talking to her granddaughter, and after hearing this crisp greeting, she raised her eyes and looked at Jia Xuan with some surprise.

Although the little person in front of him was thin and weak, he was also cute and cute, his skin was very fair, and the sunlight shining into the house was even more moist. The big watery eyes were a little stupid before, but now they shone with obvious joy.

Mother Jia didn't expect to look at the cowardly and stupid child yesterday, but today she looks a little smart, and she can't help but wonder: "Five girls, come and let grandmother take a look." How is it so good today? ”
