The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 293 This is a great thing (1)
Qi Xinrui went back to Ziweiyuan, and Mother Zhong saw that she came back later than usual, so she asked her why, Qi Xinrui told her that Zhao Jing would take her and Xu Xian to the house of Princess Xiaoyi for a banquet next month. Speak up.

That mother Zhong is a very far-sighted old slave, and she smiled a little after hearing this: "I heard the girl say that, then Mrs. Hou is indeed a good person, and the girl is grown up now, if you can go there more It's always good to walk around on the occasion."

Qi Xinrui has a thin skin, she was afraid that she would blush again if she said too much, so she only nodded a little.But after all, Qi Xinrui is no longer a little girl, so the meaning here is naturally clear.In fact, Qi Xinrui has no confidence in her heart. Most of the circles Mrs. He can socialize with are officials below the fourth rank. Now that Zhao Jing takes her out for the first time, she wants to take her to the Princess's Mansion, saying that she is not afraid, that is a lie Yes, but compared to Xu Xian, she is somewhat more mature in age and mentality.

It was the end of May outside, and the heat was getting strong. Qi Xinrui leaned on the soft couch and half-closed her eyes, and said lightly: "I understand what my mother said, but now that I am in this position, which decent young master would like it?" What about me? It’s useless to go, but I just don’t want to save Madam Hou’s face.”

After hearing her girl's self-pitying words, Mother Zhong waved her hands repeatedly and said, "It's not good for the girl to say that, who is more noble than anyone else! The girl probably doesn't know that the second girl of the Hou Mansion... ..." Mother Zhong fell silent at this point, and looked around for no one, then whispered to her ear and said: "I heard that these two girls are the daughters of the uncle and the prostitute in the current house. The old lady is I don't want to bring her in after the uncle died. A child born like this should not be taken home to raise, and it was the old lady of the Hou Mansion who didn't understand these things and was kind-hearted, so she was brought back."

"Who did you listen to, Mom?" Qi Xinrui was sensitive, but she didn't dare to inquire about it as a newcomer. She had been carefully serving Mrs. Xu these days, so how could she hear these words.

Over there, Mother Zhong just continued: "Girl, I have not only found out about these, but also other things, such as the one living in Linglong Garden now." Continued: "I heard that the old lady Xu liked her the most in the past and kept her by her side all the time. Most of the second girl's current temper is due to being bullied by the older girl before, but later the old lady alienated her for some reason. I heard that these things happened after Mrs. Hou entered the mansion, so it can be seen that Mrs. Hou's methods are very powerful."

Qi Xinrui saw that the conversation had turned to Zhao Jing, frowned slightly, and said, "Mom, it's better not to inquire about these things in the future. Whether Mrs. Hou is serious or not has nothing to do with us."

"Why doesn't it matter? My silly girl!" Mother Zhong became anxious when she saw that she was not enlightened, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Hou has agreed to take the girl out to socialize now, because she has a crush on the girl. The girl should spend more time with her." It's better to get closer, as for Mrs. Xu..." According to the news that Zhong's mother has inquired from the servants in the past few days, she just shook her head and said: "That is a master who doesn't care at all. Mrs. Hou can do it."

Qi Xinrui was a little upset when she heard these things, she is also a person who is about to reach her age, but now she is living under the fence, how can she not feel sad in her heart.Seeing that her eyes turned red, Mother Zhong hurriedly comforted her: "Why is the girl feeling sad again? It's a great thing to be able to go out with Mrs. Hou!"

Zhao Jing returned to Mingde Hall early after serving Mrs. Xu's dinner.Xu Si'an hadn't come back yet, so she ordered the servant girl to wait for him at the door outside the corner, and she hurriedly took a shower and changed clothes.In the past two days, every time they were pestered to wash together, in the end it would become Xu Si'an to help her wash. As soon as his big rough palm fell on her body, it was more than just a single wash.
