Chapter 10: Sisters
Faced with Xu Hao's rare manly spirit, the old lady couldn't help but smile dumbly, and said: "It's a bit like a man of the Xu family, so let's stay." ”
Xu Wen, who had slipped to the door, couldn't help but turn around and said with a smile: "Good grandma, then the grandson should stay too." ”
Xu Song also begged: "I want to keep it too." ”
I didn't think that today, Mrs. Xu seemed to be a different person, and treated Xu Hao, who had never been very welcome, amiable, and Xu Wen, who had always been loved, was extremely strict, and scolded without thinking: "If you don't have the right to speak, get out of the old body." ”
"Hey." Xu Wen shrank his neck and ran out with Xu Song.
There was a slight change in the eyes of many people in the room looking at Xu Hao, and even the eldest lady Wang was shocked, secretly saying that the second room was going to run at the right time?
But although Xiao still had a smile on his face, in Xu Hao's eyes, there was a trace of anger hidden in his mother's smile. The old lady's differential treatment shows that there is a difference between intimacy and alienation, but for him, he doesn't care about the old lady's attitude towards him.
"Let's get started." The old lady spoke.
At that moment, the four mothers-in-law saluted, turned around and went out, Wang hurriedly signaled the maids to open the screen window, and as the window sash was lifted one by one, Xu Cuitao and her sisters walked to the window one after another, looking out curiously.
Xu Hao also looked out, but saw Mrs. Xu standing at the bottom of the hall, admonishing the girls in the courtyard, nothing more than obeying the rules, not allowing to hide Yunyun, if there is a hidden disease, he quickly said it, and the provincial parents and relatives were punished together.
Faintly, Xu Hao saw Xu Wen's head poking out of the outer wall and waving vigorously to this side.
This action was seen by Xu Wen's own sister Xu Cuitao, but Xu Cuitao deliberately turned a blind eye, carrying a fan and shaking it, with a sneer on her face.
Xu Hao noticed that Xu Cuitao glanced at him, thought about it and walked towards the door, but he didn't want the old lady to suddenly ask, "Where is Brother Hao going?" ”
"I have some urgency, go out and relieve myself." Xu Hao stopped.
The old lady looked at him fixedly, Xu Hao deliberately showed a nervous look, quickly glanced outside, and then lowered his head weakly.
The old lady snorted: "You are righteous, but don't try to coax me, don't go anywhere." Without waiting for Xu Hao to reply, the old lady raised her voice, "Without my permission, no one is allowed to go out of the door, and no one expects to ask for favors in private, have you heard it?" ”
"Remembered." The women in the room obediently agreed, Xu Hao smiled secretly in his heart, honestly bowed his head to admit his mistake, and returned to the same place.
"Humph! Get scolded. Xu Cuitao smiled and groaned, Xu Hao smiled and did not answer.
On the other side, the three of them gathered together, Xiao Shi watched coldly, and found that the expressions of his sister-in-law Wang and younger sister Liu were a little unnatural, and asked in a low voice: "What, there is a favorite candidate?" ”
Wang couldn't help but complain: "But isn't it, I have taken a fancy to the two little girls, who are delicate and well-behaved, and know the roots, and I am thinking about preparing to be a girl for the two children." It's all to blame the third sister for making this matter earth-shattering, have you forgotten what happened back then? ”
Liu hurriedly smiled bitterly and admitted his mistake: "I blame me for this matter, I thought that the old lady would not interfere in the affairs of her grandchildren's house, but I didn't know that I was waiting for this day." Sister-in-law and sister-in-law, what do you say, if the old lady messes up with the mandarin duck score, wouldn't it be bad! ”
"It's all your fault, alas! That's no way, it's just not easy to explain to the following. Wang remembered the gift he had received, and his heart was upset.
"Forget it, my sister is also unintentional, and I blame me for following Zhang Luo for this matter for the sake of face, and gave the old lady an excuse."
Xiao Shi remembered the past while talking, she had just married her husband that year, and found that there were two maids in her husband's house who had been planted by the old lady for many years.
"The old lady will not be so unreasonable, and offend everyone for no reason." Xiao Shi said with a smile after recalling the past, thought about it and chuckled: "But most of the time she has to be installed in her old man's own person, and if the sister-in-law and younger sister's favorite girl is born beautiful, there is a chance that she will not be able to pass the test." ”
Liu said with a smile: "Song'er is young, I don't have to worry about it, and besides, I don't like the little sluts who come out of the yard like foxes and foxes to seduce the master." If the old lady wants to install someone, she can just let her endure it for a while, and then just find an excuse to send them away. ”
Wang sighed and said: "The problem is that Wen'er fell in love with that girl early in the morning, if he didn't take advantage of his wishes, wouldn't he have turned the family upside down?" ”
Xiao Shi laughed and said, "This is not easy to do? You hurriedly and secretly say hello to Mrs. Xu, such a trivial matter, she will not sell this favor, and quickly let the two girls take off the jewelry on their heads, replace the new clothes with old clothes, and wipe off all the rouge and gouache on their faces, maybe they can pass the test. ”
"It's still the second sister-in-law who has a lot of ideas." Liu lowered his head and covered his mouth and snickered, then raised his head and coughed a few times to cover up, and said in a low voice: "Then I'll go to the old lady to talk, sister-in-law, you hurry." ”
Wang nodded hurriedly, watched the two younger siblings walk towards the old lady together, looked around, and waved to his henchman quietly.
Liu said with a smile as he walked: "I'm afraid that there will be no peace in my sister-in-law's house from now on. It's a pity that the sister-in-law was led by the nose by the old lady, and she still can't figure out the situation. ”
"Pity those two beautiful girls." Xiao sighed lightly and frowned, "I'm unstable in my heart, don't make a fuss about someone's life." ”
Liu sneered: "That is also their own creation, and they deserve to die if they don't keep their duty." But in my opinion, the sister-in-law is confused, but this matter is clear, over the years, when have you seen her lose to those favored concubines, and the means are ruthless. ”
"Hmm." Xiao Shi sighed and nodded, she was not innocent and kind when she was young, she was used to seeing you live and die in the house, and some of the guilt disappeared quickly, and as Liu walked in front of the old lady, she chatted with her.
On the other side, Xu Hao and a bunch of sisters and sisters sat around a table of eight immortals and ate tea, and the previous curiosity slowly became bored as the girls repeatedly walked into the wings on both sides to be examined.
Occasionally, there are hidden diseases such as fox odor, or girls who are not perfect, crying and begging for mercy and being dragged away without mentioning it, and most of the innocent daughters' homes have successfully passed the not strict inspection.
According to age, my sister Xu Qinglian and the eldest wife's biological daughter Xu Cuitao are generally old, both are 17 years old, and Xu Cuitao is two months younger.
Xu Hao doesn't like this second sister, she is famous for her arrogance and unreasonableness, but Xu Cuitao is beautiful, not at all like her mother Wang, and she is smart and clever, and her ingenuity is the most favored by the old lady, saying that she looks the most like her aunt Princess Yan, and is known as the pearl of the old lady's palm.
At this moment, Xu Cuitao was smiling and snorting melon seeds, her movements were very good-looking, and the whole person was looking forward to flying, like her biological mother Wang, Xu Cuitao did not have any sisters in her eyes.
There are two sisters sitting next to her, the older one is called, compared to the gorgeous sister Xu Cuitao, Xu Cuiyun is not much more good-looking, honest and even a little cowardly, the third among the sisters, known as the third girl of wood.
The eldest sister Xu Qinglian is gentle and polite, and the sisters have always been subtle and low-key, because of their compatible personalities, she and Xu Cuiyun have a very good relationship.
The younger one is named Xu Cuiliu, who is delicate and weak, and has a pair of peach blossom eyes that seem to have sparks, seducing the soul, the old lady and the Wang family are very disgusted with her, and scold her for her natural foxy appearance.
Although she is not treated well by her elders, Xu Cuiliu's man is very popular, and the two brothers Xu Wen treat her very well on weekdays, even Xu Hao likes to talk to her, she seems to have a good character, but in fact she has a strong hidden heart.
There is also Xu Luzhu, the biological daughter of the third wife Liu, who has been very squeamish since she was a child because of her pampering, and she is thirteen years old with Hongye, and the two of them look at each other unpleasantly.
In addition, there is a girl born to a maid, whose name is Brother Lu, who is fifteen years old this year, as if she has been forgotten by someone, no one notices her, and she is sitting in the corner with her head bowed at the moment.
