Aunt Mei was stunned. She had never dared to think about it. Even if Feng Wuji stayed at her place for the night, she would try her best to avoid it. She didn't even dare to let Feng Wuji see that she was too longing for her.
The trance spread to Xiaoer.
"Mother, mother doesn't know either. It depends on what the madam wants."
Xiao Xiao took Aunt Mei's hand and said firmly: "Mom, don't be discouraged. You have to have confidence. I will definitely help you get your brothers back. We are a family."
Aunt Mei looked outside nervously and whispered: "Xiao'er, please don't say such words again."
Xiao Xiao knew what she was worried about. Thinking that her aunt would endure the pain of missing her son for her own sake, she felt even more grateful and vowed to be good to Aunt Mei.
"Mom, I'm going to say hello to Madam." Xiao Xiao took an apricot in her mouth, took Xia Juan and Dong Zhu, and went to say hello with the gift he picked for Madam Sima.
Mrs. Sima occasionally felt cold and was not very comfortable. She tied an embroidered tie on her head and lay on the backrest to rest while holding a hand stove.
The little girl reported that Miss Thirteen and Miss Ninth had come to pay their respects.
Yaqin said: "Stay in the way as usual, saying that Madam is not feeling well and let them go back."
Feng Ruoli and several other people came to say hello before, but his wife said she was not feeling well and disappeared, so Yaqin thought she should block them as usual.
Who knew that Mrs. Sima said: "Let them come in."
Yaqin personally invited Xiao and Xiao to come in.
Xiao Xiao and Feng Ruo immediately kowtowed in greeting and presented the gifts after they got up.
What Xiao Xiao gave as a gift was a small pot of jade-carved Buddha's hand. Although the jade was not of the highest quality, it was better because of its exquisite carving and unique ingenuity.
What Feng Ruoji gave was a gift that was often given to the elderly in previous years. It was nothing special and Mrs. Sima didn't bother to look at it.
Mrs. Sima praised her for her thoughtfulness. Aunt Xu, who happened to be reporting the matter, heard this and said: "Miss Thirteen has become a little rich man now. Among the few ladies, who can be so rich?"
Xiao Xiao said: "It's the money Madam rewarded last time. Now that I'm rich, I want to buy something for Madam. Sister Ninth has no money, so she spent a long time choosing."
Feng Ruoji was very grateful to her for speaking up for him, but Feng Ruoji had always been relatively calm and low-key, and did not get too close to him, nor did he try to curry favor with the main courtyard. He just wanted to have as much as he should have, and did not expect anything more.
And I really don’t have much pocket money, so Xiao Xiao also sponsored this gift.
Mrs. Sima rewarded her with money because she contributed the drawings of the charcoal stove, while the socks weaver behind her didn't give her any money, but gave her a lot of silk and cotton threads.
Xiao Xiao was rewarded to the girls. But before going to the academy, she got some silver again.
Mrs. Sima showed great concern for Xiao Xiao and asked her many questions, such as whether she was used to being in the academy, what she ate, whether she slept well, whether anyone bullied her, etc.
Xiao Xiao answered truthfully. Since Mrs. Sima had many eyes and ears, and it was not a secret, she naturally answered truthfully, not forgetting to thank Mrs. Sima for persuading the master to let her study.
Although it was actually Feng Wuji who took the initiative to let her study.
Mrs. Sima saw that she was so flawless that she felt more and more that she had become too much. Unfortunately, there was no evidence to prove that there was anything wrong with her.
Moreover, now that she is Feng Wuji's favorite, Mrs. Sima naturally only praises and rewards her, and does not think about how to deal with her.
After coming out of Madam Sima's place, Xiao Xiao and Feng Ruo went back to rest.
