Xiaojiaxiu

Chapter 541
Just as Master Bai was laughing and reading Bai Pangsan's three letters, Mrs. Zhao and Daya Erya had already returned home.

Seeing that the mother and daughter got out of the carriage, the servant took the carriage to the backyard to settle down.

Mrs. Xu also hurriedly poured a basin of cold water, put on a handkerchief, and asked Mrs. Zhao and her daughter to wipe their faces.

Ever since the addition of a servant girl and a woman was added to the family, Mrs. Xu resolutely rejected Mrs. Zhao's kindness and took the lead in setting rules for these people.

"I used to be the only one in the family, and I lost my heart. Now that there are people in the family, I have to pick up my old skills! Besides, I feel more at ease in my heart!"

These were Xu's original words. Seeing that Xu's mind had been made up, Zhao didn't say anything more in the end.

"Third Miss and Fourth Miss have already returned, and I'm just waiting for you to come back and have dinner together!" After seeing Zhao's mother and daughter scrubbing, Xu said to them with a smile.

Now that there are two women in the family, Mrs. Xu is not as busy as before. Instead, she puts more attention on Xiao Zhaodi, Xiao Lele and Xiao Chi'er. The matter also fell on her.

As she walked into the house, Mrs. Zhao smiled and asked the little ones what they were doing at home today.

In the hall, the two women also began to serve food one after another, first the food on the main table, and then the food on the second table of the maids and women.

Although they set rules for the maids and women like other families, the Zhao family did not care about food and clothing.

After all the food on the main table was served, Mrs. Zhao and the others did not pick up the chopsticks immediately, but waited for the women and maids to finish their work. After they sat down, the two tables started eating together.

After all, the servant and the coachman are men, so it is not convenient for them to sit together, so Mrs. Zhao asked Zhao Daniu to arrange for them to eat and live with Lao Xietou and the others, and naturally they did not lose them.

The Zhao family has always been the most lenient and generous towards their employees and servants.

"Here is a letter from the second girl, from the provincial capital!" After dinner, Mrs. Xu took a letter and handed it to Mrs. Zhao.

Although Mrs. Xu insisted on setting rules for herself, she did not live in the backyard with the maids and women, but still lived outside Zhao's house.

Mrs. Zhao took the letter and glanced at it, with happiness and worry on her brows.

"Give it to her! I think this child knows how to measure it!" Mrs. Zhao said to Mrs. Xu after thinking about it.

After the letter was delivered, Mrs. Xu didn't send the letter directly to Erya's room, but quietly put it away, and waited for Mrs. Zhao to come back and ask her about it before talking about it.

Mrs. Zhao never hides anything from Mrs. Xu, so she also told her about Erya and the young master of the Bai family.

Naturally, Mrs. Xu knows how to do things properly, otherwise Mrs. Zhao would not trust her so much.

"Master Bai said that to Siya before, and I don't know what he meant! It won't be a problem after all!" After Mrs. Xu delivered the letter and returned to the house, Mrs. Zhao said to her again.

"I heard Mr. Bai's words, and it was a little tentative. I think he should know about this!" Seeing what Mrs. Zhao said, Mrs. Xu also directly said what was in her heart.

"Erya told me a few times that I wanted to go back to the provincial capital, but there was no adult to hold her. I was always afraid of making trouble, so I kept finding excuses to keep Erya!" Now that they are old, they have that kind of love for each other. They didn't know it before, but now that they know it, Zhao can't rest assured.

"That's good, after all, I'm getting older, and the sooner I settle things down, the sooner I'll feel at ease! I thought I'd let Mama Xu find out what the Bai family's young master said, so that we'd know better!" Seeing that Mrs. Zhao was anxious , Xu also gave her an idea and said.

Even if Master Bai said those words intentionally or unintentionally, he still couldn't be asked directly about this matter.

Mama Xu was working in the bull gas restaurant in the provincial capital, and Bai Pangsan also went there every two days, so it was undoubtedly the best way for Mama Xu to ask Bai Pangsan about this matter.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao felt a little more at ease. She raised her head and nodded towards Mrs. Xu.

It was already two months after Xu's mother got a reply.

"What did you say in the letter?" Mrs. Zhao looked at Si Ya opened the letter eagerly and asked after quietly finding her fourth daughter.

Although Mrs. Zhao learned some characters with her daughter in the family before, she was not as quick-witted as a young man, and she is the mother of eight children. She was busy with this and other things on weekdays, and lost the characters she knew long ago. More than half, the Xu family was even illiterate, so the letter to the provincial capital was written by Si Ya, and when the letter came, Si Ya had to read it to them.

"Mother, mother, the fat third brother said that he has written a letter to his family, asking Master Bai to invite a matchmaker to our house!" Instead of translating for them, he chose the most important good news to tell his mother.

"What?" After hearing Siya's words, Mrs. Zhao stood up excitedly. Because of her excitement, she even knocked over the teacup on the table, and the tea flowed down the table and fell to the ground drop by drop.

Seeing Zhao's such a big reaction, both Siya and Xu couldn't help being surprised.

Mrs. Zhao didn't notice this, but snatched the letter from Siya's hand and looked at it anxiously.

"If you say that, then Mr. Bai should have received the letter, so it's time to come to the door these days!" Mrs. Zhao didn't read a single word of the letter in her hand, but her mood had long been overturned. Turning around a thousand times, he also said excitedly.

"Pfft! I was shocked, I thought my mother didn't like the Bai family! So it's because of this!" Seeing her mother's excited appearance, it was because of this, Siya couldn't help but said with a smile.

Mrs. Xu was also taken aback by Mrs. Zhao's face at the beginning, but now she can't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing what she said.

"It's not in a hurry. Our family didn't prepare, and the Bai family didn't have time to prepare! Don't worry, the Bai family took time to prepare, and we are not in a hurry here!"

After saying this with a smile, Mrs. Xu stepped forward to tidy up, and then sat down again.

"That's right! That's right! Why didn't I think of that!" After hearing what Mrs. Xu said, Mrs. Zhao felt that it made sense. Thinking of her gaffe just now, she sat down blushing and said.

After talking for a while, Si Ya went back to the house, leaving only Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Xu to continue talking in the room.

When Siya passed Sanya's room, she stopped her, and then the two talked about the recent situation of the bookstore in the room.

"Siya, you seem to have grown taller again, and your clothes seem to be too small!" After finishing the accounts, Sanya suddenly stared at Siya's cuffs and said.

Si Ya is wearing the wide-sleeved Qiushang, because it was a little longer when I made it last year, so it was a little shorter, but it can still be worn.

"The new autumn show is being made, and my mother said that the sisters in the family are all growing up, so they can't make clothes casually, and they can only find a shop to make clothes right now!" Si Ya looked at it. own clothes, and then replied.

Girls have already grown in size, and now that they can't afford to eat less, from the big girl to the fifth girl, the size is like the bamboo shoots that spring up after the rain, and they can grow a little in the blink of an eye.

"Time is so fast, the eldest sister and the second sister are starting to talk about marriage!" Looking at Siya again, Sanya said with mixed emotions.

After hearing what her third sister said, Si Ya understood what she was talking about, and she was surprised why she suddenly mentioned the matter of her being tall, so it turned out that this was what she wanted to lament.

My third sister, as she got older, became more and more silent. Whenever she opened her mouth, she turned left and right in a way that people couldn't figure out.

"Forget it! You go back to the house! I still have some accounts to deal with!" Before Siya could speak, Sanya did start to chase people away.

Knowing that my third sister was still depressed and sad because of her father's affairs, Siya didn't know how to solve her knot, so she could only leave the house.

Back in the room, Si Ya sat in front of the bronze mirror, carefully looking at herself now.

My hair is no longer as dry, yellow and sparse as it was when I first arrived here. I don’t know if it’s because I pay more attention to taking care of it. Now my hair is the thickest, blackest and brightest among my sisters. After washing my hair every time , will provoke words of envy from sisters and sisters.

Thinking of this, Si Ya couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.

After stroking the black hair on the back of her head, Si Ya carefully looked at the delicate face in the bronze mirror.

Curved willow-leaf eyebrows that are not drawn, curled and long eyelashes that are not clipped, a pair of eyes that are neither big nor small are natural and radiant, a small and straight nose bridge, red lips that are not stained, and a fair but not rosy face.

Although she is not as beautiful as Big Ya, not as handsome as Er Ya, and not as cool as San Ya, it is not difficult to see that after a few years, she will definitely be a little beauty.

Looking at herself, Siya became happier and more satisfied the more she looked at her. She was reborn as a human being. Although she was born in a peasant family, she got a good appearance. This cannot but be said to be good luck. Girls, I still hope Be beautiful!

Suddenly, the person in the mirror let out a long sigh, then casually picked up the wooden comb, untied the braids, and combed them carefully.

Most women in this era marry early, even though she feels that marriage is still far away from her, but at this moment, seeing her elder sister and second sister start discussing marriage, Hu Niu and Li Xing are already engaged, even Juan'er, who is lively and generous Pay attention to the defense between men and women, all these make Si Ya suddenly feel that the time is a little rushed.

Let the boat go straight when it arrives at the bridge, put aside the irritability in your heart, Siya comforted herself in a low voice.

Half a month later, there was finally news from the Bai family, which finally made Zhao, who had been anxious, finally heave a sigh of relief.

"Our master said that he would bring Mrs. Bai to visit tomorrow, so he specially asked me to come over and talk to Mrs.!" The young servant of the Bai family said to Mrs. Zhao respectfully.

Mrs. Zhao rewarded the servant for tea and water, and after the servant had left, she wandered into the house excitedly.
