When Xu Ruoshui saw that Fang Liying had indeed entered the flower hall, she smiled and said, "Go ask Mother Hu to come and take care of the eldest young master." It was not appropriate for him to come out like this, and he regretted it when he opened the door.
Yan'er responded and went out. Xu Ruoshui returned to normal, pulled her hair around her ears, and said with a smile, "My aunt is here, please sit down and talk."
Fang Liying's expression was a bit better than yesterday, "I didn't have time yesterday, so today I'm giving you a Mid-Autumn Festival gift. I hope my cousin won't dislike it."
Chun Jin came forward holding the small box in her hand, opened it gently, and introduced, "This is a little bit of kindness from our aunt, please accept it."
Xu Ruoshui took a closer look and saw two golden bracelets, slightly as wide as her index finger. "How can I accept such a heavy gift? My aunt is too polite."
"Sister-in-law, you're welcome," Fang Liying stretched out her hand and took it out, putting it on Xu Ruoshui's hand. The two bracelets, which were as wide as her index fingers, were light and fluttering on her hands. They didn't look like solid gold bracelets. She took a closer look at them.
, only to discover that the bracelet was gilt, not pure gold.
"Sister-in-law," Fang Liying said awkwardly, "My mother-in-law's family background is a bit shabby. Although it's not real money, my intentions are true. Sister-in-law, please don't dislike me."
It's normal for people to wear gilt jewelry. Xu Ruoshui didn't put it off. He just hesitated that if it was real gold, he might not be able to get anything good in his house to repay the gift. "Where is my aunt, this bracelet is exquisite in style."
It's novel, I like it before it's too late, how could I dislike it." She rolled up her sleeves and covered the bracelet, indicating that she accepted it.
When she took the bracelet, she happened to be looked at by Mrs. Hu who entered the room. She didn't even look at the two people in the flower hall, let alone salute Fang Liying.
"Clang", after entering, the door was closed.
"Why is this mother so rude?" Fang Liying asked curiously, "Could she be my eldest cousin's nanny?"
"Exactly." Xu Ruoshui raised his ears to see if he could hear the sound inside.
"Hey...it's hard for my eldest cousin. What's the difference between my eldest cousin's behavior and taking care of a child? It's ridiculous that a young master at such an old age still needs a nanny to take care of him." Fang Liying looked down on the fool Meng Tianbo.
.
Xu Ruoshui didn't answer, and her mind was on the next door. Is he feeling better now? The door cut off the sounds inside, which also aggravated her worries. But if the guests were here, they couldn't just drive them away. "Smoke"
Son, make a pot of good tea for my aunt."
Yan'er went out and soon came back, "Aunt Wang is here."
Why did these two people come here at the same time today? They are so popular. Xu Ruoshui quickly greeted her, "Let her come in quickly. What a coincidence today. My room has always been deserted, but today it is very lively."
It was just a scene, Xu Ruoshui didn't believe that the two of them came at the same time just by coincidence.
"Hehehe..." Hearing his voice before seeing him, Wang Mengjiao stepped in with her skirt up, catching everyone's eyes. She was wearing a blue shirt and skirt, with a short yellow gauze cover in front of it, which highlighted the blue color inside.
The color gives people the illusion of green, "I thought the young lady would be very busy today, so I came here to try my luck. What a coincidence."
Of course it was not a coincidence, but Wang Mengjiao asked her maid Bi'er to find out what was happening in Huansha Courtyard. When she learned that Fang Liying was coming to Ningxiang Hall, she packed up some gifts and followed her. "Oh...it turns out my sister is here too.
, my sister wanted to go and sit at my sister’s place later.”
Fang Liying's face was not lustful, but she did not show her disgust, "Today you and my sisters are coming over to bother my eldest cousin. I'm afraid I'm going to disturb her. Why don't I go back first and come back another day." She faced a person.
Fang Liying felt uncomfortable seeing her love rival who was wearing jewelry several times better. Her only advantage was Mrs. Meng's niece, but Mrs. Meng arranged for Wang Mengjiao to come in less than a day after she entered the house, which made her feel chilled.
.
"Sister, please slow down," Wang Mengjiao pushed Fang Liying into position and said, "It's rare for the three of us to sit together. What would sister do if she leaves so quickly?"
"There's something else going on in my room." Fang Liying said angrily.
Seeing that one of them was leaving and the other was staying, Xu Ruoshui didn't say anything. After taking the tray from Yan'er's hand, she poured two cups of tea and gave one to each of them, "Two aunties, let's have a cup of tea first."
.”
At this time, Wang Mengjiao was holding Fang Liying's hand. When she saw the tea cup coming over, she immediately let go and poured all the hot water onto Fang Liying's legs.
"Ah~~~" Fang Liying quickly wiped the water stains on her legs with a handkerchief, "Auntie, are you okay?" The maid Chun Jin also exclaimed in surprise when she saw her.
"Sister, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, sister didn't mean it," Wang Mengjiao apologized while helping to wipe it, but she felt happy in her heart.
"Blame me, blame me," Xu Ruoshui blamed herself again and again, "I didn't see the two aunts holding hands and talking, Yan'er," she ordered, "hurry up and take Aunt Fang to the clean room to clean up, but the quilt is burnt
It’s on.”
Yan'er stepped forward and said, "Aunt Fang, please go in with your slave."
Fang Liying's eyes were already red because she was burned by the scalding hot water. She supported Chun Jin and limped into the clean room with Yan'er. "Oh...is it that serious? I already apologized, she
Why do you still look aggrieved?" Wang Mengjiao sneered, but quickly returned to her normal state, "Don't be offended, eldest mistress, our two sisters are really harassing eldest mistress today."
"It doesn't matter, they are all rare." Xu Ruoshui could tell that Wang Mengjiao did it on purpose, "Don't burn it out, otherwise I will feel sad."
"It doesn't matter, just a cup of tea." Wang Mengjiao was very relaxed and told her purpose of coming here today, "Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I was too busy to say a few words to the eldest mistress. This is a small thing. I hope the eldest mistress will
Take it."
A black lacquer embossed brocade box was placed on the table, with the luster of bright paint on it.
"Aunt Wang, you are so polite. You brought any gifts for me to play. I can't accept them." Xu Ruoshui pushed it over with one hand, not revealing the gilt bracelet on her wrist. Fang Liying was by her side just now, so she was too embarrassed to take it off.
, Unexpectedly, Wang Mengjiao saw it, "Although this bracelet is good-looking, the quality is gilt. I don't know who gave it to me. It's a bit shabby."
Wang Mengjiao was obviously embarrassed by Fang Liying. There was another brocade box open on the table where she placed the gilt bracelet, "This is a little bit of Aunt Fang's wishes. I look at it delicate and beautiful, so I am very happy. If it is made of pure gold,
, I don’t dare to carry it on my hands, for fear of attracting thieves." Xu Ruoshui joked, because she had already seen a pair of lotus feet at the bottom corner of the curtain, and Fang Liying had packed them away, but did not come out.
