Green Jade held two exquisite wooden boxes, one large and one small, in her hands and entered the house.
He first bowed politely to Xie Qiao and then said:
"This is what the old man asked me to bring to the girl. In addition to the plum vase that I promised to the girl, there is also a set of Huizhou fragrant ink."
Xie Qiao thanked him hurriedly and said with a smile:
"Sister is indeed a rare visitor. Even if you come to my place, if there is nothing urgent, don't leave in a hurry. On a cold day, just have a cup of hot tea to keep warm."
Seeing that Lu Yu could not refuse, he agreed. Mother He moved a stool and placed it downstairs. Qiaolan went down personally to make fragrant tea and bring it up.
Lu Yu sat down and drank half a cup of tea. She and Xie Qiao chatted some insignificant gossip before getting up and leaving.
After leaving Baoyue Pavilion, Lu Yu couldn't help but think to herself, even though these three girls are young now, they are really good people. Every move they make shows how generous and appropriate it is. It is not difficult to win the old lady's favor and make the old lady take notice. But it's not easy. Besides, she is a legitimate daughter, so her dignity and dignity are not comparable to those of other girls.
Suddenly I thought of Mother He¡¯s kindness just now, and I couldn¡¯t help but feel relieved. Speaking of which, I am getting older year by year and have reached the age of many people. Instead of letting the masters decide whether to marry blindly or dumbly, it is better to take a good look at it yourself. She had fallen in love with one person, and it was none other than Mother He's eldest son, Xie Dalong, the son of Housekeeper Xie in the outer courtyard. He seemed to be very capable, and I heard he knew a few words, but he was not the usual rough and rude person. The servants are comparable.
¡°It¡¯s just that I am one year older than Xie Dalong, so I don¡¯t know if he would mind it. If you can go as you wish, you don't have to give up this leisurely job when you get married. You can still stay with the old master and be a housewife, which would be somewhat dignified.
With this in mind, I took over the little girl¡¯s job and made the trip myself. I originally wanted to see in advance whether Mother He would be easy to get along with.
As soon as she walked away, Qiaolan whispered:
"Unconsciously, the girl, her green jade eyes always seem to be secretly sizing up Mother He. Could it be that she is here for Mother He?"
Xie Qiao also nodded and said:
"I'm also a little confused. Forget it, I'll bother to guess what these are for. I heard that this green jade is extremely safe, and there will definitely be nothing out of the ordinary."
" At the same time, she told Qiaolan: If she comes again in the future, she should be more careful than others, and don't neglect it. "
Qiaolan pouted and said dissatisfied:
"Do you still need to use the girl's instructions for this? I can save it."
Xie Qiao opened the box and took out the plum vase inside and played with it for a while. He really couldn't put it down. It was much more valuable than Baoshu's set of horseshoe bowls. I personally put it on the shelf and looked at it for a while. Then he asked Qiaolan to grind and draw the nine-nine cold-relieving picture. Although Xie Baoshu lost the bet, I still gave him the cold-relieving picture, and thanked him for letting me get this foreign wealth.
The winter solstice coincides with Xie Baoshu and Xie Qiao's birthday, so the Xie Mansion was busy for five days, and it didn't stop until the sixth day. Coincidentally, on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Xie Qiao was chatting and joking with his grandmother in the house. Outside, Xie's mother came in happily and replied:
"The old lady is very happy. The person who reported the news in advance came and said that my aunt has already entered the city gate. The eldest, second and third masters are already waiting for our aunt in front. We are here just to talk."
The old lady said with a big smile on her face:
"But as I said, I thought about it every day and it came back. You went and brought someone to greet you outside, and let you in as soon as you came. I don't know if you can withstand such a long journey in this cold day. .¡±
While talking, Xie Qiao heard voices outside accompanied by footsteps, gradually approaching, and it sounded as if he had already reached the corridor. Xie Qiao stood up. He quietly tidied his clothes and hair, and stood aside curiously looking outside.
The curtain was opened, and Mother Xie walked in first, supporting a woman wearing a black mink fur cloak, with the hood still on her head, followed by a young man and woman, both wearing big fur cloaks. The man is also black, but the woman is bright red, bringing in a chill.
The girls below hurriedly stepped forward to serve the masters and took off their outer coats. Only then did Xie Qiao get a clear look at this long-lost aunt. The shadow of the old lady could be seen on her facial features. She was rich and dignified, and she looked excited. Then she knelt down and kowtowed, then raised her head. My face was already full of tears.
The old lady also had tears in her eyes. She looked at it for a moment and then hugged the woman. The mother and daughter hugged each other and started crying.
The people around them followed their eyes, and the second wife of the eldest wife came forward to help the women:
"My aunt is back. It's a happy event. It's a big holiday, so don't be sad."bsp; When Mother He and Qiaolan met, they both chanted Buddha secretly. With this girl from my aunt¡¯s family here, my girl started to seriously learn from the needlework embroidery girl. She didn¡¯t just read calligraphy and painting all day long, but she made progress. Fast.
The old lady¡¯s birthday passed while we were talking, and the New Year was just around the corner. Xie's house was busy tidying up again, scrubbing and cleaning everywhere. Flowers were cut with colored paper and garnished on the dead branches of the flowers and trees in the yard, which added a bit of spring color from a distance.
On the 29th of the Lunar New Year, the couplets with the word "Fu" inside and outside were all posted, and the red lanterns in the corridor were replaced with new ones. At night, looking from a distance, everything was red and bright with joy from inside to outside.
No matter how busy things are outside, it doesn't bother Xie Qiao and the others. They just try on the new clothes they just made inside the house.
On New Year¡¯s Eve, snowflakes began to fall in the sky early in the morning. After lunch, the ground was already covered with a thin layer.
Xie Qiao is sitting on the kang playing chess with Yang Zhirou in his room. Mother He opened the curtain and hurried in and said:
"Girl, come over quickly, our master is back, and he is already kowtowing in the old lady's house to say hello."
The chess piece in Xie Qiao's hand fell on the chessboard with a thud. He stood up and looked at Mother He intently, thinking that he heard wrongly.
Mother He looked at her in a daze and thought she was stupid for liking it. She hurriedly took the coat from outside, stepped forward to help her put it on, and urged her to hurry over.
Xie Qiao was still puzzled when he left the room. His father's letter home said that he would not be able to return to Beijing until at least early next year. Why did he arrive today, but he didn't know why. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
