Chapter 6: Being a Guest (3)

Clouds of dark clouds rolled over the sky, and in an instant, heavy rain fell from the sky. Soon, the rainwater flowing down from the eaves gathered into streams in the yard.

Yuxi put down the needle in her hand, walked out, looked at the bean-sized raindrops, and said with a smile: "It's been almost ten days, and it's finally raining." It's good to eat and use, and you can make it yourself, but this is different She was not used to the weather in the capital. Especially when it hasn't rained for such a long time, it makes people feel a little irritable.

Zijin said: "I heard that it rarely rains here in Yucheng, and it is very dry." It is also because of the harsh environment that food is supplied from outside.

Yuxi smiled.

Zijin frowned and said, "Girl, you have been in the border town for ten days, why haven't Zisu and Mother Qu arrived?" Originally, they should have arrived two days ago, but [UUReading 00kxs] has not arrived until now. When it didn't arrive, Zijin was very worried about an accident. What happened along the way also cast a shadow on Zijin.

Yuxi shook her head and said: "There must be some delay, think about it, who would have trouble with a few maids and women." Yuxi guessed that she must be injured, so she walked slowly.

While talking, Han Hao came in from the outside and said, "Girl, the Zhao family has posted a post for the girl." After speaking, he handed the post to Yuxi.

Yuxi took it over for a while, two days later it was the birthday of Zhao's grandma's nephew, so she invited Yuxi. After thinking for a while, Yuxi nodded and said, "Tell the Zhao family that I will be there then."

Zijin frowned and said, "Girl, why is the Zhao family posting a message to the girl, why are you so concerned? Girl, let's find an excuse to push it away!" Seeing it was not a good thing.

Yu Xi shook her head and said, "You can't push it." Although it was because she prevented Yun Qing from marrying the Zhao family, it was not her fault. If the Zhao family members were sensible, they would not make things difficult for her. If it is unreasonable, pay more attention to future dealings.

After listening to Yuxi's explanation, Zijin almost lost her hair: "Why is it so troublesome?" Cough, it's better to face the bandits and go straight up and beat him to death. It's not like facing those officials and wives, they are full of rivalry, and they are tired and panicked.

Yuxi smiled and said, "If you don't like it, don't ask about it." Zijin's main duty is to protect her safety, and Zijin doesn't need to do anything else.

While talking, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside. Not long after, Zisu appeared in the yard. Looking at Yuxi, Zisu burst into tears: "Girl, it's great that you're fine." During this time, Zisu was really scared.

I don't know why, but now Zijin is always a little irritable every time she sees Zisu shed tears. Why cry? Crying can't solve the problem.

Yuxi supported the injured Mother Qu, and said softly, "I made you suffer." The people who followed her to Yucheng this time really suffered enough.

Mother Qu shook her head and said, "Don't worry, girl, we're fine. But Manager Han was injured, and he's still recuperating over there, so he can't come here." There are other things that Mother Qu didn't say. The four maids brought by Yuxi were all frightened, but Tian Ju and Pomegranate were fine and recovered. The other two servant girls were overly frightened, and they often had nightmares, so she didn't bring them here, so as not to disturb Yuxi.

Yuxi nodded and said, "That's good."

The arrival of Mother Qu, Mother Bai and others made Yuxi feel a lot easier. She doesn't need to worry about housework anymore, she can concentrate on making clothes now. Not only did he make clothes for Yunqing, but he also had to make some clothes for himself. No matter how particular you are, you can't wear old clothes even when you're married.

Zisu looked at the material Yu Xi used, and felt a little distressed: "Girl, why are these materials so rough?" Clothes made of such materials would make people feel uncomfortable when worn.

Yu Xi smiled and said, "Do as the Romans do." This place is definitely not something that the capital can compare to.

But now that I'm here, I have to calm down, I always compare things in the capital, and I lose my sense of normalcy.

After Zijin heard this, she immediately became ill. She dragged Zisu out to the courtyard and said, "Sister Zisu, don't complain in front of the girl from now on, and don't cry every now and then."

Zisu felt aggrieved, and said, "I love the girl too."

Zijin felt that Zisu really went back as she lived longer: "I didn't say you don't love the girl, but what problem can you solve by complaining and crying in front of the girl? It's useless except to annoy the girl."

Zi Su choked in her heart.

Zi Jin said: "Girl is in a very difficult situation now, it's fine if you can't solve her problems, but you can't give her a little bit of sex." This is already quite rude.

In fact, after returning from the mountain, Zijin felt that Zisu's behavior was wrong and became more and more hypocritical. She endured it for such a long time, and now she said that her endurance is considered top-notch.

Zisu raised her head, looked at Zijin's unfriendly eyes, and said with a wry smile, "I know, I won't say such things in the future." She didn't have any other thoughts, just felt sorry for the girl. The girls in her family are all first-class regardless of their appearance and talent, but in the end they married such a martial artist. But as Zijin said, no amount of complaints can change the status quo, only accepting the reality.

No one told Yuxi about this episode.

In the blink of an eye, it was Zhao Da's birthday, and Yuxi took Zijin and Zisu to attend the birthday banquet. General Zhao is a veteran who followed the old marshal of Qin, and he has a high prestige in Yucheng, so there are many people who come to congratulate Zhao Danan on this day's birthday.

Yu Xi just got off the carriage. A woman in indigo clothes, with a bun and a gold hairpin on her hair came over and bowed to Yuxi.

One can tell at a glance that this woman must be useful, and whoever is sent to entertain her can also tell the attitude of the master. At this point, Yuxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Zhao family treated her well, which proved that the Zhao family did not have any quarrel with Yunqing because of her: "Mom, don't be too polite."

After following the mother-in-law through the second door, Yuxi saw a woman in a golden beanie with red and white butterflies and flowers all over the place walking towards her.

The mother-in-law introduced Yuxi: "Miss Han, this is the second daughter in our mansion."

Yuxi also did enough homework before coming here. General Zhao has two sons and a daughter, both sons are married, and the wives they marry are also girls from his colleagues. The daughter Zhao Jing was originally promised to Yunqing, and now she is still in her boudoir. Of course, General Zhao's daughter has no worries about marrying.

Zhao Ernǎinǎi saw Yuxi, and said with a smile: "I have been hearing about Miss Han from others these past few days, saying that when Miss Han came, she would compare us to the girls in Yucheng. Seeing you today, it is true. !" This spirit is really worthy of a girl from the Duke's Mansion.

Yuxi heard that there was no malice in what Zhao Ernianinǎi said, and said with a smile: "Secondinnǎinǎi is too much." The Zhao family can let their daughter-in-law come to greet her, showing that they value her. At this point, Yuxi was really relieved.

Zhao Ernǎinǎi said with a smile: "Miss Han, you don't have to be so polite, come to our mansion, treat it as your own home, don't be restrained!" Seeing Yuxi smiling and nodding, she didn't care much, but asked Thinking about Yuxi's habit of being in Yucheng during this period of time: "If there is anything that needs help, just ask."

She wanted to befriend her, so Yuxi would not push it away, and said with a smile: "If there is a need in the future, I will definitely ask my sister for help."

Zhao Ernǎinǎi was also very satisfied with Yuxi's attitude, and they walked towards the main courtyard while talking. A few minutes away, the two were already talking and laughing.

Entering the main courtyard, Yuxi saw that there were already several wives in the room, and one of them was known, Xia Shoubei's wife.

Mrs. Xia waited for Yuxi to greet everyone, put her eyes on the jewelry worn by Yuxi, and said with a smile: "Miss Han, your golden phoenix hairpin is so beautiful." Not only is the phoenix hairpin beautiful, but the one on the ear The red emerald drop bead earrings are also very eye-catching. Mrs. Xia was a little puzzled, didn't it mean that all the things were taken away by the robbers! Why are there so many jewelry?

In fact, when Yu Xi walked in, everyone noticed that Yu Xi was dressed up. The clothes are okay, not particularly novel, but the jewelry on her body is very eye-catching. There is no way, women are born with no resistance to beautiful clothes and beautiful jewelry. Such exquisite and beautiful jewelry, I believe there are not many women who don't like it.

Yuxi smiled, and said: "Mrs. Xia is too much, these jewelry are bought by my mother."

One of the women spoke quickly and asked, "Didn't Miss Han's jewelry be taken away by bandits?" The news that Yuxi's dowry was taken away was heard by everyone present.

Yuxi sighed slightly, and said: "The others were taken away, so I only kept these jewelry. If my mother knew, I don't know how to be sad! Those are all carefully prepared by her old man for several years. s things."

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Mrs. Xia would have laughed, why did she only keep the jewelry. The most valuable things are kept, and everything else is a change.

Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "I am even envious of Mrs. Han for raising such a filial and considerate child."

Yuxi didn't expect Mrs. Zhao to support her, and said with a smile: "I can't deserve such a compliment from Mrs. Zhao."

Mrs. Zhao shook her head lightly, and said: "It's not a compliment, it's just telling the truth. But money is something outside of the body, and you can earn it again if you lose it. As long as people are safe and sound, it's better than anything else. I believe your mother must think the same way." .” Parents all over the world have the same thoughts.

After hearing this, Yu Xi's smile became real twice.

This trip to the Zhao Mansion was very pleasant. Anyway, this time I made my first friend. When I go out in the future, I won't be caught blind again.

When the Zhao family saw Yuxi, they were actually very puzzled. Zhao Ernǎinǎi said to Mrs. Zhao: "Mother, I heard that the concubine Song urged the emperor to give her a marriage. I thought that a savage and willful girl would be given to General Yun. But this Miss Han is outstanding in everything. Is there something wrong in it?" Her sister-in-law is also good, but compared with Miss Han, she is obviously inferior.

Grandma Zhao said, "Haven't you heard? Is this girl Han a bad luck?"

Zhao Ernǎinǎi said disdainfully: "Sister-in-law, although I don't know how to read faces, but looking at Miss Han, I know that those are all lies! Mom, what do you think?"

Mrs. Zhao didn't express her opinion, but said: "You just need to get along with her well in the future." The Han family is very good in dealing with people and things, but no amount of it can be seen for the time being. But one thing is certain, he is smart and measured.

ps: There will be another update later, but it will be later, those who go to bed early, watch it tomorrow. (to be continued)
