Aunt Xue raised her eyebrows and said displeasedly: "How could I have indulged you? Li'er, a proud daughter of heaven, naturally needs to be more squeamish, so I don't need you to take care of me. It's not easy at all for you to do something, so who did you find?"
?Why did he run away after that? He couldn't be found anywhere? He was rescued. Who knows if it was you who rescued him?"
He said and walked away angrily.
Chunyue stood there, her light blue dress seemed to blend into the lush holly behind her.
She raised her eyebrows, said nothing, and moved to follow him.
As soon as Xiao Xiao returned to his room, he gave all the rouge and gouache to the girls. They were so happy that they felt that they were of the same mind as Xiao Xiao.
At this time, Feng Wuji sent someone to deliver a letter. When they arrived home ten days later, Mrs. Sima notified each room and asked them to prepare.
But as usual, they don't have to go to greet them every day. They just say that if something happens, they will be notified to the main courtyard.
Xiao Xiao directed the girls to set up their desks. She wanted to draw a portrait of Aunt Mei to record the effects of her beauty treatment.
"Miss," Xia Juan placed the wintersweet potted plants that Xiao Xiao wanted, approached her, and whispered: "Miss Fifth, Miss Six, and Miss Ten have all gone to the main courtyard. Can we also go and see if we can help?"
Do something."
Without raising her head, Xiao Xiao let Chunlan grind her ink and Okra spread the paper.
"No, Madam's place is full of people. I'm just going to wrap things up, so I'd better not go. Dongzhu, go and invite my aunt over, and by the way, let Chunmei Qiuju come over to drink soup."
Dong Zhu took the order, and Xia Juan looked at Xiao Xiao's enthusiasm and said anxiously: "Miss, you are still young and don't understand these importance. Although Madam doesn't need you to say hello, it is because Madam sympathizes with the ladies' hard work in the cold winter, but Miss can't
If you don’t go, this is because the young lady is sensible and filial.”
Xia Juan used to follow the silly Feng Xiaoxiao, and good things didn't come her way, and bad things came to her, not to mention how unlucky she was. She tried hard to get into the third lady's yard, but she never got the chance.
Later, Aunt Mei also fell out of favor, and the mother and daughter were assigned to live in a small courtyard. Later, Miss Thirteen committed a crime and was almost beaten to death by Aunt Li, and those girls and women were also ordered to be locked up by Madam.
These days she followed the young lady again, and saw that the young lady became smarter, and even got praise from the madam for things like black-headed chicken and copying the house rules, and stepped on Aunt Xue. Moreover, the young lady was also ruthless these days to please the madam, and she seemed to be more than
It’s Miss Ten.
What's more, now that the young lady and aunt have become good-looking, it means there is a chance to win the master's favor again.
How could this not make Xia Juan secretly happy? She seemed to see hope. The young lady is now different from the past, and she will definitely be liked by the master again, and then she will be the eldest girl of the Feng family.
It is better to be with a favored young lady than with a neglected young lady. The treatment and status will naturally be different.
Now that she is committed to the young lady, she naturally hopes that the young lady will work harder to please Mrs. Sima.
On weekdays, when she went to report to Mrs. Sima, she often said nice things to the lady. If she didn't show it at this time, would Madam have any ideas?
How could Xiao Xiao not know what Xia Juan was thinking? What she was thinking was that since Mrs. Sima was so pretending to be generous and she didn't need her and her aunt to pay her respects every day, then she didn't have to be so pretentious like those sisters, who had to be filial and sensible, and who had to be sincere and frightened.
