Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 142

"Madam, the carriages of the eldest girl and the second girl have arrived."

The nanny who led the way just ran over panting, her little feet hurt, and before she had time to ask for a glass of water, Madam Xie hurriedly urged: "Quick, are Tong'er's favorite snacks and tea ready? Submit it quickly. After a long journey, I should be thirsty and hungry right now."

Xie Yanniang lowered her head, not letting Mrs. Xie see the smile on her face.

Zhuangzi in the suburbs is less than an hour's journey away from Xie's mansion, why is Madam Xie's place so far away?

Xie Ruitong stepped in gracefully, but her expression was not very good.

Xie Churou behind her was even more well-dressed, with that delicate little face, she was directly compared to Xie Ruitong just by standing there.

Xie Yanniang couldn't help but be a little surprised, this second sister has always kept a low profile, she dressed ordinary in front of Xie Ruitong, for fear of offending the eldest sister.Now it seems to be a different person, and the clothes on his body don't look like the clothes made in Xie's mansion.

Xie Yanniang was even more surprised after looking carefully, the dress was obviously cloud satin.The hem of the skirt is embroidered with white lotus with silver thread, ready to bloom.Xie Churou looked radiant again, it seemed that she had a good time in Zhuangzi these few days.

Xie Churou is doing well, Xie Ruitong is afraid that she will be suppressed by her.

Mrs. Xie naturally understood what Xie Yanniang could think of, and looked at Xie Churou with a bit of haze.

Xie Churou was full of confidence, completely ignoring Mrs. Xie's gaze, and bowed to Master Xie Yingying, who was standing above him with a smile: "Daddy, my daughter is back."

Master Xie naturally also saw the difference between the two, and was a little disappointed with the eldest daughter.

Regardless of the clothes and jewelry, Xie Churou has a lot more clothes and jewelry than those who go out in the house, and all of them are high-quality goods, which shows that she has won the hearts of the nobles.

On the other hand, Xie Ruitong's clothes are still from the mansion, and there are only one or two pieces of jewelry. Mrs. Yun is probably afraid that she will not look good, so she rewards Xie Ruitong as a prestige. How can it be half of Xie Churou's?
It doesn't matter whether a nobleman is a concubine or a concubine, they are all the same in their eyes.

Xie Ruitong didn't live up to it, so why not let Xie Churou take advantage of it?
For the first time, Master Xie did not blame Xie Churou for speaking before Xie Ruitong, and smiled kindly at her: "It's good to come back, Auntie also wants you to go, go to Gulanyuan to see her."

"Yes, Daddy." Xie Churou was not in a hurry to tell Master Xie what happened in the Zhuangzi, whether it was true or not, she went out happily.

Mrs. Xie's complexion turned cold, and she snorted, "You really are an uneducated girl, but she got some benefits, so she has shallow eyelids and takes herself seriously!"

Master Xie frowned, seeing Xie Yanniang still sitting in the corner, he also sent her off: "Your sisters are all back, Qiuniang should also go back to the yard to rest."

Xie Yanniang regretted not being able to watch a good show with her own eyes, so she retreated out with a low eyebrow.

But after walking a few steps, I heard Xie Ruitong's mournful cry: "My parents want to make decisions for my daughter, and that vixen is overwhelmed by everything, and she snatched the prince away..."

"Nonsense, what a vixen, that's your sister!" Mr. Xie's roar came from inside the house, obviously very angry.

If Xie Churou is a vixen, then what is he, the biological father of a vixen?
Xie Ruitong still didn't know that she had said the wrong thing, so she kept crying: "Father doesn't know, that girl is like a different person when she arrives in Zhuangzi. She has a sweet mouth, which made Mrs. Yun smile, and took advantage of it. I get close to the prince when I'm not paying attention. It's only half a day, who in the village doesn't know Miss Xie Er?"

Mrs. Xie's heart was blocked when she heard it, and she said she couldn't let the vixen girl go to Zhuangzi, but Mr. Xie refused to listen and sent her over in a daze.

Now it's all right, Xie Ruitong has been so crowded that there is no place to stand, and Xie Churou has taken all the benefits.

Master Xie listened, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Rou'er gets along well with the lord? Did the lord just say something?"

Xie Ruitong was crying with tears all over his face. Hearing Master Xie's words, he froze on the spot and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Mrs. Xie sighed, she knew how Mr. Xie was, the eldest daughter and second daughter, the concubine daughter and concubine daughter, in his eyes, as long as he could get things done, he was a good daughter.

Xie Ruitong didn't take the lead this time, and was robbed of the limelight by Xie Churou. Master Xie's heart has already turned to Xie Churou, so why would he care about Xie Ruitong's heartbreak?

She felt sorry in her heart, but she didn't want her daughter to offend Mr. Xie, so she urged: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you answer your father's words?"

As if recovering from the shock, Xie Ruitong caught a glimpse of the anxiety and worry in Mrs. Xie's eyes. Mr. Xie was still waiting for her to answer, feeling pain in his heart, he reached out and swept away the tea set on the table.

With a "crash", the objects on the table were smashed to pieces, making a loud noise.

Xie Yanniang, who walked slowly to the door, glanced back, walked non-stop, and took Xue Ling away.

You don't need to think about it to understand that this is something Xie Ruitong made a fuss about.

Xie Churou took away her charm, it's no wonder Xie Ruitong could bear it.

However, Master Xie doesn't care whether Xie Ruitong is sad or not, what is nervous is the future prosperity of the Xie family.

But Xie Ruitong was pampered and grew up since she was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the apple of the eye, how can she swallow this breath?
Master Xie's furious reprimand and Mrs. Xie's dissuading cries came from inside the room, intertwined and it was a mess.

The maids outside the house did not enter or did not enter, and they all looked at each other, their faces full of embarrassment.

Xie Yanniang smiled, let's make a fuss, the more fussy the better.

In this case, Master Xie and Mrs. Xie didn't bother to pay attention to her.

Back in the Peony Garden, Xue Ling waited on Xie Yanniang to wash and wash, and said: "Fortunately, the girl left early, otherwise it would be bad if she got involved."

Xie Ruitong's temperament, she could see clearly not long after entering the mansion.

This big girl is unhappy, she might blame Xie Yanniang.

After all, it was Xie Yanniang who didn't accompany her to Zhuangzi, which gave Xie Churou the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole.

Xie Ruitong has always been unreasonable, if she is not happy, others should not be happy.

Xie Yanniang naturally knew the temperament of this elder sister, so as soon as Master Xie spoke, he obediently withdrew and stayed there, and had to find fault with Xie Ruitong.

But she was very happy to see Xie Ruitong deflated.

Xie Churou didn't put her tail between her legs anymore, she behaved with low eyebrows and pleasing to the eye, and her eyesight and skills were better than Xie Ruitong's.

It's just that Xie Ruitong has Mrs. Xie's backing, so she didn't act rashly before.

Now that her wings are full, and she is no longer a child, how could Xie Churou not give it a go?
If she really won the attention of the Fifteenth Prince, Master Xie would be more partial to himself.

So what if Xie Ruitong cries again, Mr. Xie will never favor her this time, and will treat Xie Churou well.

Xie Yanniang smiled, looked at herself in the bronze mirror with crooked eyebrows, and sighed: "From now on, this mansion will probably be more lively."

One mountain cannot contain two tigers. For a man, what will the eldest sister and the second sister do?
With a smile in her eyes, she couldn't wait to know.

"Xue Ling went to the kitchen to get some ingredients, Xue Yan cleaned up the small kitchen, and then closed the courtyard door tightly, so no one can come in."

After Xie Yanniang finished giving her orders, she leaned on the soft couch and felt a little drowsy.

This set of bones has been raised in the mansion for a month, but it is still very weak, and after a short ride in the carriage, it becomes very tired.

She rubbed her forehead with one hand and tried not to fall asleep, thinking carefully about what else was left behind.

Xue Ling looked a little pitifully at this, the third girl was only relying on herself inside and out, she thought a lot at such a young age, even though her face was tired, she couldn't fall asleep easily, so she responded in a low voice: "Don't worry, girl, the food is good for you." Yes, the servants will be ready."

Xie Yanniang glanced at her, thinking of the stability and intelligence of this maid, she nodded slightly.

It's also time, I have to make the maids around me more capable, otherwise I'll exhaust her: "Alright, I'll leave it to you."

With Xue Ling's clever mouth and a heavy silver tael stuffed, the cook called two women to help move all the ingredients over without saying a word.

What she was talking about was that Xie Yanniang might have to serve nobles in the future, so she must not be sloppy at all, it is better not to step out of the gate and out of the small gate.

The cook is used to seeing the wind and the wind. The regent sent someone to pick up the third girl. He witnessed it with his own eyes, so how could he not agree.

Moreover, Xue Ling spoke politely, without putting on airs, but she was not timid either.

She was also happy to give this convenience, and directed the mother-in-law to move the ingredients for two or three days, and said flatteringly: "Miss Xueling, don't worry, in two days, I will let the ingredients bought by the family go directly to the Begonia Garden, no trouble girl Run again."

"No need, send me the one that is easy to store. The girl likes to be clean, but she doesn't like strangers coming into the yard every three days." Xue Ling will not agree to her, who knows if the cook will collect the money in two days? Just go back on your word?

When the time comes, the cook will assume nothing of the matter, and the Haitang Garden will close the courtyard again, and there will be no ingredients in the small kitchen, where will Xue Ling cry?
It's better to settle it once, than to worry about it day and night later.

The cook raised her eyebrows, and asked the mother-in-law to bring a box of melons and fruits from the yard behind where the ingredients were stored. This thing is stored properly, and it can still be used for ten or eight days: "Miss Xueling, is this enough?"

Xue Ling took a look and found that the melons and fruits were fresh, so they could be put away for a while, so she nodded.

The mother-in-law quickly sent the things to the Begonia Garden, Xue Ling turned around and locked the courtyard door.

Mrs. Xie heard that Xie Yanniang had locked the yard after asking for ingredients, and she was so angry that she cried to Mr. Xie, "Look, one or two wings are hard, and they didn't pay attention to me, even sending someone to tell them. Lazy!"

Master Xie got tired of hearing it. He originally thought that the most outstanding of the three daughters would be the eldest daughter, so he favored her more.

Who would have discovered now that although Xie Ruitong is good-looking, she has been following Mrs. Xie a lot, so she has to be a little clever, and has nothing to do except make noise, and she can't even grab a man's heart.

He waved his hand and said: "Qiu Niang was already weak in the first few days outside, so it's okay to close the courtyard door and take a good rest. You, the aunt, should take care of it a bit more. As for Rou'er, she's tired too, tell Tong'er to stop Some of them are sisters, what’s the point of continuing to make trouble? In the end, wouldn’t it be a joke if it was spread?”

Mrs. Xie was indignant, why would her daughter make people laugh?
