Chapter 87

Xie rucao gently opens the curtain of the carriage and looks out. On the front door of the government house, there are several big characters written in the name of Zhizao jiangguofu. The calligraphy is vigorous, and the style seems to be vigorous. There are several stone lions squatting on both sides, one pair of eyes watching the coming people, it seems that the next moment will have the intention to rush up.

Xie rushao is so busy that he puts down the curtain and hides himself behind the carriage. Sure enough, she still can't face the past. Her previous life, which caused a tragic ending for her family members. This life is her from the beginning, does not mean that the pain does not exist, others do not know, she Xie ruzhuo how can hide his heart!

Xie Ruyue didn't know what she was thinking. She thought it was because she hadn't visited for a long time, so she was a little nervous. She immediately took her hand and said with a smile, "don't be afraid, zhuo'er. Although you don't visit many people, it's your grandfather who won't give birth."

As soon as her words were finished, someone verified them.

Only heard a woman's clear laughter outside, "no wonder the old lady said that there were Magpies in the early morning. It turned out that three young masters and young ladies of watch came to the door, and they were all in a daze to do something. Quickly put the young ladies of watch down." It's Liuying, the big maid beside Cao's grandmother.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted immediately, and several servant girls helped Xie ruzhuo out. Seeing the firefly, Xie Ruyue said with a smile, "sister firefly, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you

The firefly supported her and said, "thanks to the two ladies, I'm ok. It's freezing. You two, please come in. The old lady is in a hurry But she couldn't help but look at Xie ruzhuo again. This fourth Miss Xie, who usually doesn't want to come to the door, has to make some troubles every time she comes. Coming here today really makes her feel a little hairy.

As soon as Xie rucao got out of the car, she saw Liuying's look in her eyes. She nodded to the latter and went in.

There are several plum trees planted in the yard. At this time, it is in the middle of winter. Plum blossoms are in full bloom. Pink plum blossoms are beautiful like clouds, which add a bit of vitality to the winter.

A servant girl had been playing the curtain for a long time, and said with a smile, "here we are. The old lady has been talking about it for several times. Please come in, three of you."

Xie Huainan walks in first, and sister Xie ruzhuo follows. As soon as I enter the door, I feel the warmth of the house. Xie rucao gives her cloak to her servant girl, and sees an old lady with silver hair sitting in the middle.

The old woman was about sixty years old. There was kindness between her eyes and eyebrows. Only the wise light in her eyes showed that she was unusual.

Seeing the three sisters, the old lady said with a smile, "you three monkeys, do you think of me at last?"

Xie Huainan three people salute first, "to grandmother please."

Xie Ruyue saluted, then bullied her body forward, nestled up to Cao Shi, and said with a smile, "Grandma's words are very sad, but I'm talking about you every day."

And Xie ruzhuo, then some embarrassed standing in place. She seldom met Cao in her previous life. Now, although she wants to please her enemies, she can act calmly. The more relatives she is, the more she is at a loss.

Cao ordered Xie Ruyue's nose, then got up and walked up to Xie ruzhuo. When he touched her hand, he frowned and said, "how can your hand be so cold, firefly? Please bring Mrs. Tang to miss Biao."

Then Cao took her to the Kang and said with a smile, "has zhuo'er ever had breakfast?"

Xie ruzhuo said, "eat it."

Cao asked a few more questions. Xie rucao answered them one by one. Then he sat by Cao's side respectfully, but his heart was warm. She cherishes the feeling of being with her relatives. Even if she doesn't speak, she feels very warm.

Xie Ruyue saw that she was unconventional and couldn't help laughing. She said, "grandma, you are so eccentric. You don't even ask me if my hands are cold. I'm going to be jealous."

Hearing the words, Cao couldn't help laughing and said angrily, "just like a monkey, you sit around the small stove as soon as you come in. Do you think I don't know what this means? Besides, I'm not ashamed to be jealous with your sister? "

"Grandmother --" Xie Ruyue deliberately lengthened her voice, and called with a coquettish voice, then said mysteriously, "I'll tell you a secret. Zhuo'er is here today, but I have a gift for you."

Her little sister is unusually shy. In fact, Xie Ruyue has some understanding. Since the hunting ground, zhuo'er has been calm. He wants to come here today and make up for the relationship between his relatives. But it's one thing to think, and another to do it. Xie Ruyue saw that she didn't say it for half a day, so she said it directly for her.

Smell speech, Cao suddenly some accident, these years little granddaughter not close to himself, let her heart very uncomfortable. Especially after the death of her daughter, and then look at these children, more and more feel distressed. But her kindness, in previous years, Xie ruzhuo is not willing to accept, today even want to give her a gift?

Xie ruzhuo was really embarrassed, but he had to say, "grandma, I heard that you are not comfortable recently. It happened that you bought a cook who is proficient in medicinal food, so I wanted to send it to you. In fact, this is not a gift. It's just the filial piety of my granddaughter. I hope my grandmother won't give it up. "

As soon as her voice fell, Cao's eyes were a little wet. He held Xie ruzhuo in his arms and said with a smile, "good boy, it's too late for my grandmother to like it. How can I dislike it?"

"Grandmother, you don't know. The cook is delicious. She doesn't smell the medicine at all. But after a meal, Xie ruzhuo wants to send it to you. It's really good that she thinks of you. " Xie Ruyue is happy to see their success in easing their relationship, and adds a fire to one side.

After hearing this, Cao's heart became more and more happy. In the past, I didn't like my little granddaughter. Now she has such a heart. She sighs in her heart, caresses Xie ruzhuo's hair and says, "don't you have a heart?"

Xie ruzhuo was greedy for his grandmother's embrace and said with a smile, "as long as my grandmother likes it." Then she looked at Xie Ruyue with a smile and said, "Xie Ruyue, you know so much about the food cooked by the cook. I'm afraid you've been asking her to cook delicious food these days. I'm not sure you'll be able to recruit her quickly."

"I've learned how to make it for you, haven't I?" Xie Ruyue was unconvinced and snorted. She complained on her mouth, but her eyes were full of laughter.

When Xie Huainan saw them like this, he always had a smile on his mouth. He remembered the business in his heart, because he said, "grandma, I have something to find cousin Chengye. I'll come back later to accompany you."

Cao Shi waved his hand and said, "go, your cousin should be in the study at the moment. You can go directly to him."

Xie Huainan answered and went out without saying much. But Cao asked with some doubts, "I think your brother seems to have something hidden in his heart. What's the matter?"

She has not been involved in the affairs of the court hall for many years, but she has heard some rumors about the Xie family.

"The emperor issued an imperial edict this morning, saying that he asked his brother to escort food and grass to the south for disaster relief. I think it's going to be new year, but my brother has to leave home Xie ruchuo simply said the matter again, but omitted the matter of proposing the government to participate. My grandmother never allowed women to be involved in court affairs. It's better for my brother to show up.

Smell speech, Cao Shi also some sigh, "Huainan this child, really want to suffer." Then she told the firefly, "I'll find out the mink fur coat later, and let him take it with me when the young master leaves."

"Grandmother, you can't use it." Xie Ruyue waved her hand and said, "it's too expensive. You'd better keep it." The mink fur was given by the former Emperor. Now it's given to Xie Huainan. It's hard to guarantee that others will be jealous.

But Cao said, "what can't be used? It's cold and freezing. Although this dress looks ordinary, it's rare to keep warm. There are not many people who know this dress. Let your brother wear it. "

Two people are saying, then listen to outside servant girl to announce, say is Ye Shi to come.

As soon as the words were over, a woman came in from the door. She was wearing a water blue dress with delicate eyebrows and eyes, and her expression showed a sense of competence belonging to the administrator. It was the Ye family, the aunt of Xie ruzhuo, who is now the master of Jiang Guogong's family.

In a word, Ye's background can not be underestimated. She was the daughter of Dingbei palace, the younger sister of the former queen and the elder sister of Princess Ye. They are the same mother, and they are very affectionate.

With the arrival of Ye, there was a boy about sixteen or seventeen years old. It's just that the boy's body is not tall, and he's a little fat. His face has not been long open, round face, big eyes, like a fortune doll general pearly.

When the boy laughs, he shows two dimples. He is very handsome, but the fat one conceals his good appearance. This is Jiang Chengjun, Ye's youngest son.

Sister Xie ruchuo asked for her first greeting. Ye picked up one with one hand. She first cared about Xie Ruyue, then looked at Xie ruchuo and said, "last time at the Qianjin banquet, I didn't have time to ask you. Your arrow wound is better?" When she was at the entrance of the villa, she saw Xie ruzhuo's face pale, but she was surrounded by several ladies at that time, and some of them couldn't get away from her. She was worried in the end.

As soon as Xie rucao's heart warmed, he replied with a smile, "thank you, aunt. I'm fine now. I also want to thank my aunt. I really like the clothes you gave me that day. Unfortunately, I didn't wear them. I'm very sorry. "

"But there's nothing to thank for a dress. If you like it, I'll let xiuniang do it later and send it to you. " Ye has no daughter, and his family is a man of the same color. At this time, he sees Xie rucao, who is very sensible and likes him.

Several women sit together and chat, but they are bored by the little fat Jiang Chengjun. He twisted his buttocks on the stool a few times, but he couldn't sit down after all. He went to Xie ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue and said, "don't you see my existence?"

Xie ruzhuo has noticed his little action for a long time. At this time, seeing his awkward face, he immediately said with a smile, "please say hello to the second cousin."

Xie Ruyue was still sitting on the stool. She just protected her heart in the palm of her hand and hummed, "don't try to grab my snacks. Today, this Hibiscus cake is all mine." She has always been fond of sweets, which happens to be similar to Jiang Chengjun's. Every time he comes to the government, Jiang Chengjun grabs almost all the snacks and asks Xie Ruyue to jump.
