The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 311 Sister Hui is with you every day (1)
Two or three days had passed since Xu Si'an left, and Zhao Jing's Guishui still hadn't arrived, so she became more and more certain in her heart.Today, after class, the girls were all sitting in the Songhe Hall of the old lady, and it was getting close to the time for dinner. It happened that Zhao Jing wanted to discuss with the old lady about going to Princess Xiaoyi's residence tomorrow. matter.

Today, the princess's mansion sent another servant to send an invitation card, called "Su Bin".Zhao Jing ordered someone to collect it, and added more reward money, and told the person who came to pass the message over there, saying that he would go there early in the morning.

The old lady also paid a lot of attention to this matter. Although she hadn't participated in these things for a long time, when the old Hou Ye was around, she was also a decent person. I found out some personal things I had hidden, so I could choose one or two and send them as congratulatory gifts.

Zhao Jing had already made preparations, and asked Zhang Yongshun's family to collect the gift a few days ago.It is also the first time for Zhang Yongshun's family to do this kind of errand. He was afraid that his shallow eyesight would embarrass Zhao Jing, so he made a special trip to Xingyue Tower. Jasper Hairpin.

Zhao Jing looked really good, and guessed it must be expensive, but Zhang Yongshun's family smiled and said: "Master Hou has ordered, Madam is going out for the first time, it doesn't matter if you have more etiquette, it's not like our Hou family can't afford it." The owner of these things, besides, this thing is not expensive, it was originally kept by the store, and I heard that people in our family want to buy it, so I am willing to part with it."

Xu Si'an looked at the big and rough people, as long as he wanted to know, he could feel everything clearly.So Zhao Jing chose this hairpin.

For a while, the old lady also asked Zhang Mama to bring up the things she had chosen, looked at Zhao Jing's choice again, frowned and said: "You really look better like you, I haven't brought these things with me often, don't you let them go?" After staying in Curry for a long time, has it become dusty?"

After Mrs. Xu's storeroom left auspiciously, Ms. Zhang tidied it up again, many of which were missing a lot. Although Zhao Jing asked the servants in the mansion to look around in the pawn shop near the Hou's mansion, many years had passed. , some of them are really irretrievable.

Zhao Jing watched as the old lady brought over a plate. Inside were a red gold ruby ​​butterfly flower hairpin and a jasper ribbed flower double-fold long hairpin. Although they were not in fashion today, they were exquisitely crafted. It was obvious that they were made by skilled craftsmen. handwriting.

"Mother's two things are also good. They are so bright after being hidden for so many years. Looking at the gold, it looks like it has just been blasted. It's so bright."

These are all Mrs. Xu's own personalities. When Zhao Jing passed the door, Mrs. Xu had already sorted out a box for her, and she was absolutely embarrassed to ask her to take these.

"It wasn't just fried. Just before you passed the door, I asked Mama Zhang to take out all the gold and silver utensils in the warehouse and fry them. I chose a lot for you and kept some for myself. Originally, I wanted to give them all together. Yes, and I was thinking of saving some kind of self for these children in the future." The old lady really didn't regard Zhao Jing as an outsider, and she changed her mother-in-law, how could she tell her daughter-in-law about these things? ?
Fortunately, Zhao Jing has a good temper and is not greedy for these things at all. Even if the old lady does not hide her selfishness, she will definitely let these children marry in a prosperous way in the future.

After the old lady Xu finished speaking, she felt that she was a bit inappropriate, so she smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not afraid that you will treat them badly, I just..." She felt a little embarrassed when she spoke, and she didn't know how to help herself. To defend, it was Zhao Jing who said with a smile: "Mother looks down on me, am I that kind of person... Mother's things can be given to whoever she wants, and I will never know."

After hearing this, the old lady finally felt a little better. Seeing that the girls were all sitting, she beckoned them to come to her.

Xu Xian glanced at Zhao Jing first, saw her smiling and nodded towards her, then walked up to Mrs. Xu with her head down, leaned forward and whispered: "Old ancestor."

Qi Xinrui, who was at the side, had a pleasant smile on her face. The girl's brows and eyes were a little charming, and her voice was also a little sweet, and she also called out: "Old ancestor."

The old lady Xu nodded towards the two of them, looked up at the plate that Zhang's mother was carrying, reached out and handed the jasper-ribbed flower double-closed long hairpin to Xu Xian and said, "Take this and take it with you. The new clothes are already ready, and it is always necessary to wear new jewelry to be presentable."

Xu Xian took the hairpin, her brows showed a bit of surprise, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, but she didn't wait for Zhao Jing to remind her, she said happily: "Thank you, old ancestor."

She is usually silent, but now she took the initiative to talk to the old lady, and even the old lady felt happy, with a smile on her face, she straightened her clothes, and said Said: "Tomorrow your aunt will go out alone, I'm not at ease, you go with me."
