"We have a distinguished guest coming, and my Xu family has neglected it."
Is this Mrs. Xu? I haven’t seen her yet, so I heard her voice first!
Fifth senior brother quickly led us out.
I saw a middle-aged woman entering the yard with a graceful appearance.
This woman's head was covered with dazzling pearls. Around her neck was a thumb-thick gold and jade necklace, and on her finger were seven or eight large rings made of gold and jade.
I am very emotional——
The Xu family of Jinling is truly worthy of its reputation. It is truly a wealthy family!
Without paying attention, the woman had already paid her respects and said: "I bring my dog Qingyang with me, and I came here to pay homage to Miss Ye and Prince Zhao. I have met Mr. Chang and Mr. Bai."
Alas, I am currently wearing men’s clothing!
Mrs. Xu not only saw that I was a woman, but also recognized that I was the young lady of the Ye family. She has really sharp eyesight!
With this thought in mind, I glanced at her face a few more times.
Hey, this Mrs. Xu seems familiar, as if she has seen her somewhere...
"...My daughter, Danyang Yue, went to Hanjing Temple outside the city to pray. She is not in the house now and cannot come to see her. I hope you will forgive me... If the Xu family has been negligent in any way, I hope you will forgive me..."
Hey, there is actually a young lady in the Xu family?
It had been a while, and the Xu family was still kneeling on the ground. I quickly collected my thoughts, acted in an approachable manner, and extended my hand to help: "Madam, you are very polite, please get up quickly."
The Ninth Senior Brother let out a "hmm" sound from his nostrils.
I gave him a reproachful look - when people salute you respectfully, you always have to be approachable. You are so arrogant. If word gets out in the future, won't you lose your face?
However, Ninth Senior Brother has not taken a course called "Mind Reading", so he did not accept my kindness.
Before I could help Mrs. Xu get up, a smart little girl had already set up the table and placed some snacks.
Mrs. Xu stood up happily and held my hand affectionately: "Miss Ye, we said goodbye to each other in Beijing two years ago, do you still remember me?"
correct!
That day when I was paying my birthday to the Queen Mother in the Shou'an Hall, this old lady seemed to be standing on my right side. Because I was a little bored during the auspicious occasion, I chatted with her for a few words. I vaguely remembered that she seemed to be from the Queen Mother's natal family.
relative.
"Madam, that was the day..."
Mrs. Xu gently patted the back of my hand, nodded with a smile, and pulled me into a seat.
As soon as she sat down, Mrs. Xu looked at Senior Brother Xiaobai: "Master Bai, the jade tree is facing the wind, and Miss Ye are really..."
Then she paused, turned her head and looked at me with a smile: "I chose the third prince's concubine before I could congratulate Miss Ye. It's really a crime worthy of death!"
Immediately, my heart dropped, and the hand holding the glass froze in mid-air.
Suddenly, my sleeves seemed to sink, and the fifth senior brother next to me quietly pulled me under the table. I quickly collected my thoughts, slowly put down the cup, lowered my head, and acted like a shy lady about to be married.
Mrs. Xu smiled "haha" and changed the topic: "Since Miss Ye wants bitter leaf asarum, our Xu family should have rushed to deliver it to the house. How dare we bother Miss Ye to come here with her rich body and rich body?"
I breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly: "Ma'am, you're kidding me. Bitter leaf asarum is a precious thing in the house, how dare Ye Rong take it by force?"
Mrs. Xu, however, pondered for a while and said: "To be fair to Miss Ye, this time Miss Ye wants to eat Asarum, but our Xu family is in a bit of a dilemma..."
"Ma'am, just say it doesn't matter."
"Bitter leaf asarum has been lost and is no longer in the Xu family..."
