Xu Mingmei couldn't raise them in his own courtyard, but she was afraid that the snowball wouldn't have anywhere to shelter themselves from the rain in the outer courtyard. During the day, the snowball did not like to rest inside. Because of the resting area, the area that the snowball would be active on, was imperceptibly delineated. When Xu Mingmei and Xu Mingwei came to look for the snowball, they would call for it in the pavilion a few times, and then the snowball would stroll out gracefully from a corner.
The snowball smelled it and started to eat. Peaches looked at the cat in front of her and realized that it was not even 4 jin in weight and did not have a single strand of mixed hair on her body. It had been raised outside all day, yet its fur was so white and beautiful.
"Be careful, the grass is too short and will easily be caught." In the end, the snowball was tired. It looked at Xu Mingwei, went around to her side and licked her fingers, and then climbed up the nearest tree, high up on the branches where the sun had touched it, and went to sleep.
Peaches couldn't help but feel stuffy. Indeed, she had been called a cat scoundrel. She had played with him for nothing. When she left, she didn't even look at him once. He really had no conscience. In his heart, he pitied the little cat and asked Xu Mingwei, "If Miss likes it, why didn't you ask the six girls for your place in the courtyard? How pitiful. "
Xu Mingwei sighed, "This was gifted to me by my uncle's family in Sixth Sister, I can't raise it, and I have no reason to give it to others.
Peaches was speechless. If she had been raised in the countryside, she would have missed the main house and eaten better than she did in the Xu family.
"Let's go. If you have time in the future, you can come over and play with it often. Sixth Sister and I still have to take care of our work, so I'm afraid that you won't have time to come over in the future." Xu Mingwei looked at the white ball of fur on the tree and instructed.
Xu Mingwei was curious, the sun had risen from the west, how could the Lady Ji be willing to let Xu Mingmei out?
When Wan Rong saw her expression, she knew that she was about to change her mind, and explained, "six girls listened to Second Wife's instructions."
Xu Mingwei did not understand, did Lady Ji have a change of character? After entering the door, they met up with Xu Mingmei again. Only then did they know that a letter from the Fu Clan had been sent over, inviting her and Xu Minglan to visit the mansion tomorrow. They probably knew that there was still Xu Mingmei at their place, and the thread also mentioned that it would be able to bring along all of their sisters.
Xu Mingwei suddenly realized. If one were to talk about what was troubling Lady Ji the most, it would be the various inconvenience that her birth brought to her. To her, money was something that she had never worried about before. However, there was something in this world that money could not buy, and that was status. Xu Mingmei was six years old this year, and did not even have a proper handkerchief to hand over. When the Xu family heard that she was a young lady from the second branch, they would treat her differently, so why not be closer to Xu Mingwei and the others?
As a result, when Lady Ji received the notice from the butler, it was as if she saw a glimmer of hope. By right, Xu Mingmei was already old enough to socialize with other people, and coincidentally, the children who were also studying with the Princess would all be together to play. If she were to go, at least she would be able to get along with the ladies in the circle.
At this moment, the Lady Ji was regretting that she did not have to force Xu Mingmei to get close to him. Even after using the thread to send it to the moon-nesting, he was still a little nervous, and did not have much confidence. After grabbing onto Xu Mingmei, combing her hair and changing into a new dress, Xu Mingmei was not annoyed at all as she shouted, "I'm going to Seventh Sister's place, and I'm not even going out to be a guest.
When Xu Mingmei was done with the cleaning up, the Lady Ji was worried again, "What should I bring to your Seventh Sister? What does Mingwei usually like? "
The Lady Ji s who sent money to the palace could deposit it in, but to their nieces, there was no such logic.
Xu Mingmei rolled her eyes and said impatiently: "Mother, which time did I not go to Seventh Sister's courtyard empty-handed? I did not go to look for someone?
As expected, Xu Mingmei was once again beaten up by the Lady Ji.
Then, Xu Mingmei suddenly remembered, and said to Lady Ji, "Seventh Sister seems to really like snowball, Mother you don't want to raise them anyways, why not give them to Seventh Sister? I'll write a letter to First Uncle later, so that Uncle won't blame me."
Lady Ji was stunned for a moment. She couldn't remember which snowball was it, or was it because of the wet nurse's reminder. Only then did she remember that his eldest brother had someone send it over to him the other time.
When she received the Lion Cat, her sister-in-law also praised it when she saw that it was a cute cat, saying that she had a good brother. Only Lady Ji could not help but laugh bitterly in her heart. If she was truly concerned, then it would be obvious that she would not be able to raise a cat. Businessmen valued their profits greatly. Their elder brother was so concerned about this married woman, and for what reason, they all knew each other very well. It was a pity that they had misplaced a treasure. In the entire Xu family, not many people looked down on her.
When he thought of Xu Tianzheng, whom he had not seen for a long time, on his way back to the village, he picked up someone's daughter. Lady Ji rubbed her belly in frustration. For the sake of the little evil creature in her stomach, she laid on the bed and nurtured her baby for two months. Finally, the baby could take care of itself and used a different method of puking to torture her. The man in the room had returned to his hometown, leaving her alone to support the Xu family. If not for this anger, Lady Ji really wanted to give up.
Seeing that Lady Ji had remained silent for a long time, Xu Mingmei thought that she was unhappy and was about to say whatever she wanted to say, but then Lady Ji nodded, "It's just a cat, since your Seventh Sister likes it, then give it to her."
He turned around and instructed the wet nurse, "Mother Wei, I'll have to trouble you to grab the snowball when you are free. Wash it properly before sending it to the moon-nesting. Or should I send someone to look for it later? "
Xu Mingmei hurriedly stopped her, "There's no need to look for another one. Even if you change to a different cat, Seventh Sister might not like it. Seventh Sister even frequently goes with me to the outer courtyard to feed the cats. The snowball is very close to her. "
The Lady Ji nodded and said, "Alright then. When you are done packing, quickly send this card over to your Seventh Sister. You don't need to come back for dinner, use it together with your Seventh Sister. "You …"
Seeing that Lady Ji seemed to want to say something, Xu Mingmei guessed that she had more to say. Lady Ji waved her hand and sent her out.
In fact, what the Lady Ji wanted to say was, if possible, she didn't need to come back to sleep, she could just rest with Xu Mingwei inside the moon-nesting. However, the words reached her mouth and she swallowed them back in the end.
