Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 137 Throw it away

At that moment, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a smile: "Look, girl, they are thinking about you after all, and they sent congratulatory gifts over there early in the morning."

As he spoke, he stepped forward to open one of the boxes, and saw a plate of boiled eggs on the top.

The egg was boiled yesterday morning, and as soon as it was out of the pot, Mrs. Wang asked Zhao Zheng to go to the town to find a coachman. He traveled day and night, hurriedly and without stopping, and arrived this morning.

Thinking that it's March and the spring is cold again, it won't be bad. When I get to the girl, I ask the maid to warm it up with hot water, which is just right for eating.

Cui Mama's eyes flashed a deep disgust, but she said with a smile on her mouth: "There is really a heart, the country children celebrate their birthdays, and the adults will cook boiled eggs to eat, which means that the new year will be consummated. Tell someone to warm it with hot water, and give the girl a taste?"

I don't know whether it was the farmer's words that hurt Chu Xi, or whether Chu Xi didn't like these things at all.

After listening to it, she remained calm and remained expressionless.

Mother Cui waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for the girl to speak, so she tentatively asked again: "Miss?"

Then Chu Xi said lightly: "No need, I just ate the longevity noodles cooked by my mother this morning, and used a bowl of bird's nest. I'm not hungry yet, let's leave it for now!"

A smile flashed across Madam Cui's eyes, and she knew it was a good way to retreat.

After a pause, Chu Xi asked again: "Does Fifth Sister have these things?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The man nodded quickly when he heard Chu Xi's question.

This man is also surnamed Li, known as Lao Li, works as a driver in the town, and also runs errands to deliver things to the city.

In short, they all come out to earn money to support their families. As long as there is money, he will take on any job.

Since delivering things to the capital for the Zhao family, Lao Li has also probably found out some details about the two families.

Secretly said: Although the fifth girl was born in the Hou family, she treats people kindly and kindly, and does things kindly. Big, full of extraordinary bearing, every move reveals a style, unattainable.

Every time Lao Li came here to answer, he would involuntarily hold his breath, for fear of offending this noble man.

Hearing Miss Six's words again, Lao Li was stunned to himself. They celebrated their children's birthdays with boiled eggs, and the official lords celebrated their children's birthdays with bird's nest.

They have only heard about what bird's nest is, but no one has seen what it looks like.

Therefore, when he heard Chu Xi take the initiative to ask questions, Lao Li was flattered, and after answering, he added another sentence.

"Brothers from the Zhao family have specially ordered that the two gifts are exactly the same. The younger one will go to Miss Wu's place first, and the girl who comes next."

Originally, I wanted to express my heart, but I didn't want to hear it in the ears of others, so that's not the case.

Sure enough, Chu Xi smiled after hearing this, but remained silent.

Mother Cui saw what the girl meant, and asked the servant girl to give her a red seal, and sent her away.

After the person left, Mother Cui looked at Chu Xi's expression, and then said, "Young lady, don't take it to heart, that person did the right thing. After all, the fifth young lady is the eldest, so it's common sense to go to her first."

Chu Xi pursed her lips slightly, but after all she was their biological daughter.

In the end, it's not that I don't want to recognize her, why bother to say it so nicely.

"Girl, these things..." Cui Mama asked tentatively.

"Throw away what should be thrown away, and put away what can't be thrown away!" Chu Xi said lightly.

"Hey!" Nanny Cui nodded heavily, and immediately smiled, "I'll do it now, old slave!"

After finishing speaking, he asked someone to dress up Chu Xi, ready to attend the appointment of the fourth prince.

Chu Xi looked at the willow-leaf eyebrow in the carved bronze mirror, with a small cherry mouth, her charming self, and let out a long breath.

It doesn't matter, she doesn't care about people who don't care about her. Naturally, there are people who care about her.

But he said that as soon as Lao Li came out of Chu Xi's courtyard and walked towards the back door, he saw Chu Zhi's maid rushing over.

Lao Li hurriedly asked: "Miss Dong'er, why are you here?"

"Young lady packed some things just now and wanted you to take them back. Fortunately, I made it in time." Dong'er said, "They are all children's gadgets and a few clothes, they are not worth anything, so I will trouble you."

Lao Li hurriedly said: "Miss Dong'er, what are you talking about? Don't bother me, you are too polite."

Dong'er glanced at Lao Li's hand, and said with a smile, "Go to Miss Six?"

Lao Li smiled and nodded.

Dong'er continued to laugh and said, "Miss Cai asked the maidservant to heat up an egg and eat it. She said it was the egg from the old hen at home. The egg white is egg white, and the yolk is egg yolk. It is delicious."

Hearing this, Lao Li's face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile: "That's right! My grandson likes to eat eggs, so he specially bought two old hens to lay eggs for the baby."

Dong'er said: "Since this is the case, Miss Six must like it very much!"

Old Li said: "The nobleman said that she is not hungry yet, let's eat later, and the little one will come out."

Dong'er nodded: "Then I'll see you off."

"No need, Miss Dong'er is too polite."

Even so, Dong'er sent Lao Li away from the back door, watched his carriage go away, and then entered.

She didn't go back in a hurry, but turned to the garden at the gate of Chu Xiyuan.

There were a lot of rough envoys who were pruning flower branches, and when they saw Dong'er coming, everyone shouted: "Today is Miss Wu's birthday, Miss Dong'er is not with the master, why come here when you have time?"

"My girl said that you have worked hard all day tending the flowers and plants, and I heard that you asked for some handkerchiefs last time, so I specially asked my servant to bring some over. Take a quick look and see if you like it."

Several people saw that it was actually a handkerchief made of Yunjin.

"This..." The women looked at each other with flattery on their faces, "Miss Dong'er, how did this happen? Master is too polite."

Yunjin's handkerchief is too expensive, they dare not accept it!
"Since the master gave it to me, then take it!" Dong'er said and divided the handkerchiefs.

A few people are thankful again.

Only then did Dong'er ask: "Just now I saw Miss Six going out?"

"Yes!" One of the women replied, "It is said that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince invited the girl out of the mansion."

After she finished speaking, everyone's faces were full of envy.

"Since that's the case, why did Shuqi come out with the food box? But the girl hasn't had any food yet?" Dong'er said, "Today is Miss Six's birthday, if you miss the errand..."

"Miss Dong'er misunderstood, how dare you! The kitchen sent longevity noodles over early in the morning, but it was..."

"But what?"

"It's just that I heard that the Zhao family sent bad things to disgust the girl, so the girl called it throwing away. I heard that the girl cried in anger."

"Oh? There's such a thing? I don't know!" Dong'er smiled, "It's also strange. It's a coincidence that our girl's gift is the same as the sixth girl's, but hers is broken, and our girl's is fine. "

The women looked at each other, but no one dared to answer.
