Chapter 149

There was a woman in the room who was saying, "my great aunt, this is a century old mansion. It's prosperous all the way. It's several times better than my family." When she said that she was in high spirits, the golden step on her head swayed a few times with her head, in which the red beads were shining and dazzled people's eyes.

As soon as Xie rucao's pupil shrinks, she sets off a huge wave in her heart. If she really hasn't seen her old friend for a long time, she is so comfortable that even this woman has forgotten!

Ji Qing, the legitimate daughter of the Ji family, was the first one to push herself into the fire pit in her previous life. At that time, when the Xie family was trampled, Ji Qing not only didn't help, but also joined her brother Ji Yanzhang to climb up on the Xie family's shoulder!

"Yo, four girls are coming. Come and meet your cousin." Ji had not seen her family for a long time. She looked very excited. As soon as she saw her granddaughter, she waved and said happily, "it was ten years ago that you last met. You must not know her now."

Xie Ru Zhuo sneers in her heart. She knows Ji Qing even if she turns into ashes! But still with a smile on his face, "it's cousin Ji Qing, but it's more and more spiritual." But if you look carefully, you will surely find that Xie rucao's smile only exists on her face, but in her eyes, it is a school of coldness.

Ji Qing is not found, only complacent way, "is it, cousin also think so, just too aunt also said I was more beautiful than when I was a child."

To be fair, Ji Qing's appearance is not outstanding, even ugly. Today, she wore a green Bijia and a vermilion water pattern skirt, embroidered with clouds. In addition to a gold step shake, there are also several Jeweled hairpins on her head. Although her eyes are big, they are a little dull. Although her lips are plump, her nose is a little flat. A face is smeared with powder. Before people get close to her, she can smell the thick powder.

Xie rucao just smiles, and then says to Ji, "granddaughter, please say hello to grandma. I'm afraid my mother is still busy. I'll go to find her first."

Smell speech, Ji Shi is busy to wave a hand to smile a way, "don't hurry to walk, your cousin seldom comes, accompany to sit for a while."

Seeing Ji's words, Xie rucao is not easy to shirk, so he has to sit down on the right side.

Ji Xu looked at it for a long time. Then he turned his eyes and said with a smile, "I'm worthy of being my aunt's direct granddaughter. Look at this style, it's more than 100 times stronger than our qinger. Qing'er, you should learn from your cousin in the future. The girl's family should be like this. In the future, you will not lose your sense of propriety when you marry into the family of princes and nobles. "

Ji Xu's words are not popular. Before Xie rucao opened his mouth, Ji frowned and said, "Qing'er is also a good child. What you said is like this. It's you who are not ashamed to talk about getting married in front of girls who don't have hairpins."

Ji Xu's is said of Na Na, immediately lightly beat down own mouth, way, "see I this have no propriety of, old Tai Jun can't go to heart."

Xie ruzhuo grasped the point and said naively, "eh, is my aunt going to stay here for a long time?" If she remembers correctly, Ji's parents lived in the Xie's house only after he and his hairpin in the previous life. Is it difficult that this life is also advanced?

Sure enough, Ji Xu said with a complacent smile, "your cousin just got a scholar. He wants to find a position in the capital. I wanted to buy a courtyard outside, but I didn't find a good place for a while, so I had to let the old lady show mercy and accept it for a while. "

"Mother, what you said is wrong. Aunt Tai is not an outsider. I like aunt Tai and want to accompany her all the time." Ji Qing gets up and walks to Ji Shi's side, shaking her hand, a face coquettish appearance.

Ji's favorite son and grandson around the knee, now listen to Ji Qing's words, immediately smile patted Ji Qing's hand, spoil drown way, "is you have the heart, Xie family also does not lack your mother and son three yard, why go out to live? As far as I'm concerned, it's good to live here, as long as you don't dislike my old lady and talk a lot. "

Ji Xu was eager for her to say this, and now she was smiling and flattering, "Lao Tai Jun, what you said, how can I dislike you? I haven't seen you these years, and my master is also worried about you."

Seeing the mother and daughter sing in unison, Xie ruzhuo is angry in her heart and can't get angry on her face. As soon as she tries to find an excuse to slip away, she hears from Jinyu, "the third lady and the third young lady are here."

As soon as I heard these two people coming, there was a flash of light in Xie rucao's eyes. Lu is not a vegetarian. She is the most careful. Now she can kill Ji Xu's mother and daughter!

As soon as Lu entered the door, his eyes first looked at the situation inside the house. He asked Ann and said with a smile, "Yo, who is this pretty girl?"

Xie Rulan obediently went to Ji's side and sat down, taking a pair of eyes to look at Xu's mother and daughter.

After Ji's introduction, Lu immediately clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Oh, look at the bearing of the whole body. If you don't know, you think it's the old lady's direct granddaughter." Then she took Ji Qing up and down again, then she took off a slightly inferior bracelet and gave it to Ji Qing, "girl, this is my aunt's point of view. You can't give it up."

From Ji's point of view, we can only see Lu's intimate gift, but Xie rucao clearly sees the quality of the bracelet. She sneered in her heart. Lu was a good man. She killed two birds with one stone. She flattered the old lady and got a good reputation. Unfortunately, Lu's wishful thinking really failed.

"Look, as soon as the third aunt saw the beautiful little girl, she immediately forgot about zhuo'er." Xie rucao curled his lips and said, "third aunt, I'm jealous." Although there was a big fight between them not long ago, they were all a big family. As long as they didn't kill their wives and children, it would make sense.

Hearing what Xie rucao said, Lu immediately said with a smile, "Oh, my aunt is not happy. You have no conscience. Have I ever treated you badly in ordinary days? You are not the one who has to pick the good things in the house." With that, Lu ordered Xie ruzhuo's forehead again, with a look of doting.

Ji Shi also along with smile way, "Zhuo wench is more and more stingy, now even younger sister's Vinegar all eat."

See people tease her, Xie rucao immediately said with a smile, "I'm not mean, just amuse grandma.". But I think the third aunt likes sister Qing'er, because she wants to live in our family, otherwise the third aunt will have to think that she can't eat any more. "

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu's face suddenly stagnated for a moment, and then she said with a dry smile, "resident? How long will it be? " You know, the general ledger of the Xie family is made by three families. Now the Ji family is in decline, and the long house of the Ji family can't be seen by her. What is the plot of the Ji family to stay here now?

It's not surprising that Lu thinks too much. She always takes advantage without losing. If she lives for three or five days, Lu is willing to make a superficial effort to please the old lady, but if she lives for a long time, she naturally thinks about her own interests first.

"This year's imperial examination has passed, and now my son Yanzhang is only about to enter the post. Thank you for your help." Xu didn't find that Lu's face was not very good. He said with a smile, "it's also Xie Jiaren who's kind, but I'll disturb you in the future."

God knows, as soon as Xu entered Xie's house, she didn't want to leave any more. She had never seen such a mansion in her life! Now that she can live in it, she doesn't need to spend money and can enjoy it. She is stupid to go out and live!

As soon as Lu saw her face, he felt angry. However, due to Ji's presence, he said tentatively, "your son is promising. What's his fame this year?"

If Ji Yanzhang is promising, let him help Xie Huaiyang.

"He has passed the local examination this year. He's a scholar!"

On hearing this, Lu's face immediately pulled down, scholar! Her family Xie Huaiyang is still a Jinshi, Rao is so, Xie family activities and contacts also spent a lot of money. Is Xu crazy this season? A scholar dares to come to Beijing and ask Xie family to arrange a position for him?!

"Mother, isn't this scholar?" Lu is not stupid, not in front of Xu's face, just a face of embarrassment to ask Ji.

Although the following words didn't come out, Ji already understood. In fact, Ji was in a bit of a dilemma, but everyone came to her door. If she refused, she couldn't say it. After all, she hadn't seen her for ten years, and her mother's family had never asked her for anything. Now her elder brother wrote letters in person, and she had to help.

"Don't worry about this. Zhuo'er, Lan'er, take your sister to play." Ji said, and then called Jinyu, "take Mrs. Ji to Zixiao garden. Remember to tell the servant girls to take good care of them. When it's settled, go to the eldest lady and let her entertain the guests. "

Lu's heart was on fire, his face also did not smile, only said, "mother, I'll tell my sister-in-law, you use breakfast first, and we'll report to you when it's ready."

After saluting Ji, Lu went out of the courtyard first, and watched Jin Yu and Ji Xu leave with a smile. He immediately pulled down his face and said in a hateful voice, "it's a good bargain. The abacus is loud enough!"

Ji Qing is following behind, just by chance hears this sentence, at the moment some facial expression is ugly. Lu ignored her and said to Xie Rulan, "Lan'er, you are the host, but you should take good care of the guests. Although you are a permanent resident, this guest is still a guest. Don't lose your courtesy!"

With that, without looking at Ji Qing's face, Lu turned and walked towards the pavilion. She wants to talk about it with Qiao. The cost of the house is huge. Now she's here to eat and drink. Since Qiao is the mother of the family, she has to give an explanation!

Seeing Lu's leaving in this way, Ji Qing immediately said, "did I offend my aunt?"

Xie rucao light smile, also don't build a cavity, only way, "three elder sister, I want to give mother please, you accompany cousin."

Xie Rulan eyes a stare, just want to talk, see Xie ruzhuo Shi ran left. She was annoyed and had to smile, "cousin, don't think too much. My mother is just in a bad mood today. Let's go. I'll take you to see your new yard."

Just, Xie Rulan's expression is full of contempt in the end. This small family really can't be on the stage. Just now my mother just gave me a defective bracelet, which made Ji Qing happy. It can be seen that she is also a blind person. It's just that she should be a valet. Maybe if she's trained well, she'll be able to play the role of those who don't have eyes.
