Chapter 198: Gossip
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Yujing was picked up.
When Yuxi learned the news, she happened to have dinner: "Second sister is back?" "Yuxi thought that the old lady would not let Yujing come back for the New Year!
Bingmei nodded and said, "I just returned to the mansion not long ago." I heard from my mother-in-law that the second girl had lost a lot of weight and was not in good spirits. ”
Yuxi didn't gloat, but she didn't feel sorry for Yujing either. The path you choose will naturally bring you the consequences of swallowing: "This is just the beginning." "Disgusted by her family and disgusted by her in-laws, what situation she will end up in, just refer to her previous life. Of course, Yujing should be stronger than her, because Yujing is not a bun that goes against the grain.
The Chinese New Year is a busy time for adults, and children are all following in the fun, and then receiving red envelopes. So the next day, the old lady went to the palace early in the morning with the Qiu family and other ranks, and Yuxi had just gotten up to prepare for the morning exercise.
Yuxi saw Yujing at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. Yujing has lost a lot of weight, but her expression is much calmer. Yuxi was a little surprised, but she didn't expect that it would be really useful to let Yujing chant the scriptures.
Yujing also noticed that Yuxi was looking at her, and said with a smile: "Fourth sister." "The form shì is stronger than the person, and she must now lower her posture.
Yuxi smiled and shouted, "Second sister." "Yuru takes the initiative to make friends, Yuxi will not push out, one more ally is better than one more enemy. But Yujing, there is no possibility that she and Yujing will be friends, because she is also partly responsible for Aunt Rong's death. However, Yuxi doesn't regret it, Aunt Rong wants to kill her, how could she let her go!
On this night, Yuxi harvested several more red envelopes. Among them, Qiu Shi and Lu Xiu gave the thickest.
Yuxi's year can be regarded as a bumper harvest year, and the income of her bun shop, grocery store and farm is about the same as last year, but the shop and good land that Qiu's gave her are very profitable. In the future, relying on these industries, Yuxi will not worry about eating and drinking.
In a blink of an eye, it was the third day of the Lunar New Year, and this day was to visit Zhou's house for the New Year. Yuxi had already made an appointment with Zhou Shiya, so naturally she wanted to follow.
Zhou Shiya looked at Yuxi and was very happy: "I finally looked forward to you." "Zhou Shiya is actually very lonely in the Zhou family. Although there are many sisters, they all have their own thoughts, and she doesn't dare to have a heart-to-heart relationship with these sisters, otherwise she will be used accidentally.
Yuxi looked at the flesh on Zhou Shiya's face, and said with a deliberate smile: "Why are you fat again?" If you continue to be fat like this, be careful not to see your eyes. "Zhou Shiya is actually not fat, just a little baby fat.
Zhou Shiya pinched her face and said with a sad face: "There are too many delicious foods, I can't help it when I look at it." ”
There are many ways to lose weight, and Mrs. Tuesday has found a lot, and Yuxi has also given a lot of advice. But no matter how many ways there are, Zhou Shiya herself is so delicious, and all she likes to eat is meat, it is already very good to be able to maintain her current figure.
Yuxi said: "It's better to bear with it!" You're okay now, if you wait until you get married and have children, and you eat so uncontrollably, it's hard to lose weight. "Yuxi learned all of this from Mama Quan.
Zhou Shiya looked at Yuxi's slender figure enviously: "It's still hello, no matter how delicious you eat, you won't get fat." She knew that Yuxi ate four meals a day.
Yuxi smiled: "How can you not be fat?" I just held it in. "Her supper at night, if it is meat, her exercise time will be extended, and what she eats will be consumed, so she will naturally not gain weight.
Zhou Shiya naturally knew that Yuxi had to play five poultry plays every day, shook her head and said: "Forget it, those five poultry plays are too ugly, and my mother won't let me learn them." ”
Yuxi smiled and said, "Is your mother not letting you learn?" Obviously, you can't bear the hardships yourself and don't want to learn, and you blame your mother. ”
As she was talking, Zhou Shiya's maid brought two plates of strawberries. In addition, there are many pastries and dried fruits. Zhou Shiya said with a smile: "I know that you like to eat fruits, this is what I specially prepared for you." ”
Yuxi doesn't particularly like to eat fruits, but Grandma Quan said that women eating fruits are good for their skin, so they have developed the habit of eating fruits every day.
After saying a few words, Zhou Shiya sent everyone out and talked to Yuxi in a private conversation: "Yuxi, now that we are all thirteen years old, my mother has already started to give me a lot!" What do you mean? "Yuxi's marriage is a little not optimistic, it is enough to have an unconscious stepmother, but there is also a father who is indifferent to her.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "Don't worry. ”
Zhou Shiya said: "Why aren't you in a hurry? The girl's apricot has been in the past two or three years, and if you don't take advantage of this time to pick a good one, the good ones will be picked away by then. Mrs. Tuesday often read these words in Zhou Shiya's ear, no, Zhou Shiya was also affected.
Yuxi said with a smile: "My third sister is one year older than me, and I can only talk about my family affairs when the third sister's marriage is decided." ”
Zhou Shiya frowned and said, "I heard that Concubine Song likes Cousin Yuchen very much, and intends to point out your third sister to His Royal Highness King Jing." "Jing Wang is the title of the Ten Princes.
Yuxi smiled: "Isn't this it." The third sister's marriage is decided, and my marriage is easy to talk about! "Her father is only a fourth-grade official now, and he is nothing in the capital. But if Yuchen is assigned to get married, it will be the future princess Jing.
Zhou Shiya instantly understood: "That's right, why did I forget about jì!" "If Yuchen is assigned to get married, then Yuchen will be the crown princess. It is not a secret that Yuxi and Yuchen have a good relationship in the upper circles, and at that time, I am afraid that there will be no matchmaker to ask for marriage.
Yuxi also took this into account, so she knew that her marriage would not be decided before Yuchen did not refer to marriage: "What about you? Is there an eyebrow for your marriage here? "The two are also too familiar with each other, there are no taboos, and they can say anything.
Zhou Shiya shook her head and said, "No, the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet!" However, my mother fell in love with Chen Ran, the second master of the Taining Hou Mansion. ”
Yuxi laughed: "Your mother's vision is so good, if this family business is done, you will wait to enjoy happiness in the future." "The family style of the Taining Hou Mansion is very good, and there has been no incident of the concubine riding to the head of the main room in the past few decades, so several young masters of the Taining Hou Mansion are more sought-after. And Chen Ran is the most sought-after, one is that his father is Taining Hou, the other is that Mrs. Taining Hou is a very generous person, and her reputation in the capital is very good, and the third and most important point is that Chen Ran's own conditions are very good, and he won the first place in the child exam, and I don't know how many people are staring at him for this condition!
Zhou Shiya pouted and said, "It's so easy." The Hou Mansion of Taining has a good family style, and it is rich and noble, and Chen Ran's own conditions are also very good, and those who come to say that they are close to each other are about to break the threshold of their family. Yuxi, it's not that I'm arrogant, with my conditions, there is no play nine times out of ten. If it were you, it would be possible. "Yuxi is an all-rounder in Zhou Shiya's eyes, and she can't do it.
Yuxi smiled: "It's impossible for you, and it's even more impossible for me." "It's not that Yuxi has low self-esteem, but her own conditions are there. My mother died early, my father didn't like it, and the reputation outside was not bad but not very good. is so sought-after Second Master Chen, how can it not be her turn.
When Zhou Shiya heard this, she felt that she and Yuxi were too unambitious, grabbed a strawberry, took a bite hard, and said, "We can't grow other people's ambition to destroy our own prestige." We haven't seen this Second Master Chen, we don't even know if he is round or flat, maybe it's all touted outside, but in fact, he is a guy who is ruined on the outside! ”
Yuxi said: "That's really a pity, Second Master Chen is really not one of the people who are ruined by Jin Yuqi. ”
Zhou Shiya's eyes lit up: "Have you seen Second Master Chen?" "The people outside praised Chen Ran like a fairy child in the sky, but there were almost no people who had actually seen this person. Of course, the few people who Zhou Shiya said had seen Chen Ran refer to the girl in the boudoir.
Yuxi nodded: "I've seen it, I've seen it twice." ”
Zhou Shiya was excited, grabbed Yuxi's hand and asked, "Say it quickly, say it quickly, where did you see it?" What does he look like? Did you talk to him? What was said? ”
Yuxi was made to laugh and cry by Zhou Shiya's appearance, but she still told the process of meeting Chen Ran twice: "I happened to meet it." The two didn't even say a word, they just bumped into each other.
Zhou Shiya was very disappointed when she saw that neither of them had spoken to her: "It's a pity." It would be great if Second Master Chen fell in love with you! ”
Yuxi nodded Zhou Shiya's forehead and scolded with a smile: "What are you talking about?" Marriage events, parents' orders, matchmakers' words. ”
Zhou Shiya shook her head and said, "Yuxi, I said this for a reason. Second Master Chen's situation is relatively special, his marriage must be nodded by himself, and Mrs. Taining Hou can't look down on him, so it's useless. "It's also that Mrs. Tuesday likes Chen Ran too much, so she went out of her way to search for Chen Ran's information.
Yuxi was a little surprised: "How do you say this?" ”
Zhou Shiya told Yuxi the news she heard from Mrs. Tuesday: "Second Master Chen was kidnapped when he was five years old, and he didn't come back until more than half a month later. I heard my mother say that when he was rescued, Second Master Chen was no longer human. It took more than half a year to raise it, but since then, Second Master Chen has spoken less, and Taininghou and his wife have always felt guilty about him. Because he was ashamed, he would not be forced to do many things, including marriage. After all, Chen Ran is the second son, not the eldest son, and he does not need to bear the responsibility of the family.
Yuxi really hadn't heard of these things: "If that's the case, then it's really difficult." I saw that Second Master Chen was a little cold, and it was not ordinary difficult to get into his eyes. Yuxi also understood why Chen Ran could be so calm when he looked at Yuchen at that time, people who have experienced life and death actually see many things very lightly.
Zhou Shiya spread her hands and said, "That's why I said I didn't play!" But my mother is full of interest, let her be, it is estimated that she will cool down in a few days. ”
The two chatted for a morning. When Yuxi left, Zhou Shiya was still reluctant and said, "In two days, I'll go to your house, and we'll have a good chat." ”
Yuxi smiled: "Okay! ”
