Chapter 174, plea
All the way home, Xiaochu came to see Mrs. Chu with a name charm in his hand. The second lady was also in the room. She saw that Xiaochu's ring was not messy and smiled. The second lady asked suspiciously, "Is it fun in the temple?"
Xiaochu smiled and said, "Madam and the second lady asked me to go. They sent money to get something. When I saw Miss Zhuang in the temple, I said yes to her." Mrs. Chu said, "Is the banker's girl in the temple?"
"Yes, Miss Zhuang said that she knew I would go today and asked the girl to call me, so I went." Xiaochu glanced at the second lady and saw that she was really embarrassed. Xiaochu thought that she was leaving and didn't intend to put up with the second lady's politeness to her.
Mrs. Chu looked at the second lady thoughtfully, but she was still concerned and asked Xiaochu, "What did she say to you?" In line with this concern, Xiaochu was moved and did not return all. He only said, "I saw it at the lotus meeting in summer. Miss Zhuang called me to greet my wife and master, and then greeted the prince."
The second lady smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you have chosen a good daughter-in-law." Mrs. Chu looked at Xiaochu again and said with a smile, "Go back and have a rest." Lin Xiaochu has always disliked that Mrs. Chu is worried about her. I don't want her to say good words for Miss Zhuang today. Mrs. Chu has no doubt. Have we all misread her? Is this a virtuous person?
Xiaochu also smiled when he left the room. Seeing that the wind and snow were more urgent outside, she wrapped her cloak tightly. There are only a few days before the Spring Festival. The stone bonsai in the yard and the old tree railings are frosty. Because of the strong wind and snow, most people walking at home have their heads down.
After passing through a hanging flower door, I met a woman in blue and shouted with a smile: "Miss Xiaochu," Xiaochu was stunned for a moment and then smiled. This person is Mrs. Liu.
"I'm here waiting for you for a while. Fortunately, it's windy and snowy. I said I would avoid the snow and then leave later. If you don't come back, I won't have any more ideas to delay. There are not many people walking nearby in the distance, and all the family members are in the room. Grandma Liu gave something to Xiaochu and said with a smile, "You asked me to buy a needle and thread."
I understand that this is an assent. She pretended to pay and said, "I don't have it today. Can you come and get it tomorrow?" Grandma Liu would also say, "Even if the girl doesn't have me, I will respect her. If you want me to come, I will come tomorrow afternoon."
The two exchanged these hidden words and walked away with a smile. Without taking a few steps, there was a man standing upright in the pavilion in front of her. Her face was stiff and stiff. She didn't know whether she was in a bad mood or frozen.
"Qiu Bai, stand outside in this weather? Go back to the room!" Xiaochu laughed and scolded, "It's really hard to find a sick child without good weather. You can try it. If you don't peel off your skin, it won't be over."
His face was pale and frighteningly white, and he was wearing a lotus blue cloak, which made his skin pale. She opened her mouth coldly, and her voice was more icy than the ice edges of the corners of the pavilion: "I'm waiting for you."
Xiaochu came over and was still smiling: "Let's go back and talk about it. It's cold to see you." With that, he picked up Qiu Bai's hand and put it on the stove he was holding. Xiao Chu smiled and said, "You're very good."
With a "bang", Qiu Bai's face suddenly turned red. He waved his hand and knocked off the stove. How far was the hand stove rolled out in the sound of "jingle"? A family member in the room in the distance was shocked and several people came out to watch.
Only then did Xiaochu see that something was wrong and hurriedly said, "Let's go back and say something." Qiu Bai came forward and angrily slapped Xiaochu. Fortunately, Xiaochu was in a convenient body, not like Qiu Bai who was frozen. Another hand stove was knocked off, and Xiaochu was a little vigilant. Then he hurriedly dodged this slap. Only his fingertips swept over his face, which was a hot pain.
"You lied to me! Why did you lie to me? I dare not argue with you, and you lied to me!" Qiu Bai roared, and the sound spread far in the snow, and hit Xiaochu as soon as he rushed up.
Xiaochu retreated in a hurry and fell to the ground with his feet. Seeing Qiu Bai rushing over and rolling a few ugly things, he dodged the madman Qiu Bai. After listening to the sound of footsteps, several family members looked wrong and stopped Qiu Bai.
"You fox spirit, you are the best at seducing the prince at night. Look at what you wear on your head and what you wear on your body. This is what you are going to do at night..." Qiu Bai's face turned red, struggling like crazy, and then shouted wildly.
Xiao Chu sat in the snow and burst into tears again. Seeing Qiu Bai's family, some people are gloating; some people are sympathetic and pitiful; some people are suspicious and keep looking at Xiaochu's clothes.
In the snow, Chu Huaixian and Mrs. Chu hurried over from both sides. Mrs. Chu arrived first and heard Qiu Bai's roar and said angrily, "Bry up this lawless slave!" Chu Huaixian rushed over, put a few feet on Qiu Bai's body and scolded, "Wild slave, gag her."
Xiaochu rushed over, knelt in front of Qiu Bai, and begged Chu Huaixian, "The prince is angry. She is sick today. She didn't talk nonsense until she was sick." Then he begged Mrs. Chu: "Madam, calmed her anger. She has been serving the prince with her heart. She has been following the prince for many years."
Lin Xiaochu didn't seize the opportunity to be a good person, but Qiu Bai. Xiaochu really mourned for her. What's the use of always following yourself? It's better to think about yourself.
Mrs Chu was furious, and Chu Huaixian was also furious. Qiu Bai said nonsense and just scolded. Xiaochu had to plead for her with sympathy.
Seeing Xiaochu's plea, Mrs. Chu was a little angry, but she still had a gloomy face to Qiu Bai. Seeing that Qiu Bai was tied and stuffed, Mrs. Chu said angrily, "Take her to the second door and kicked her out with forty boards." At this time, Qiu Bai regretted coming up, sobbing and struggling in his eyes.
"Madam, please spare her this time," only Lin Xiaochu pleaded for her desperately, and Xiaochu also cried: "You know what she is thinking," and then begged Chu Huaixian: "Son, you know, forgive her this time."
Mrs. Chu smiled and said, "What can you do if you get up and see that you are covered with snow and frozen?" Chu Huaixian also smiled and half picked up Xiaochu, untied her snow coat, untied his coat and put it on Xiaochu, and then said to his mother, "I don't want this slave. Let my mother kick him out."
Xiaochu pulled Chu Huaixian's skirt tightly and burst into tears at him: "Don't chase her, don't chase her." Chu Huaixian smiled and said, "I'll take you back first. Don't worry about this matter."
Xiaochu, who was half hugged and half sent back, looked at Qiu Bai, who was kneeling in the snow. Two lines of tears flowed down Qiu Bai's face, and Xiaochu's tears fell to the ground. This was the end of the girl's thinking.
This tragic ancient man!
The girls in the room were shocked. The prince came back with Xiaochu's snow clothes in one hand and half holding Xiaochu in the other. The prince is a household dress, and Xiaochu wears the prince's snow coat. Chu Huaixian shouted, "Come make hot tea, go to the kitchen for ginger soup, move the brazier over, be so stupid, and then make hot water."
When I first entered the room outside, my cold body was about to tremble. Xiaochu sat on the couch and trembled and cried: "It's not that she doesn't know what she's thinking." Chu Huaixian sat beside her and smiled, holding the hot tea sent by Xia Lu in one hand and feeding her tea with the other hand holding Xiaochu without avoiding suspicion: "If you ask me to stay, I will stay? Clean up yourself first. It's the Spring Festival. What are you playing when you're sick?
Xiaoyi stuck to her sister and rubbed her hands with her little hands. Chu Huaixian shouted lotus again: "No eye, take Xiaochu's clothes." The lotus took the clothes. Xiaochu had already drunk hot tea and no longer trembled. He sat on the couch with a big brazier under his knees.
Two stewels came in from outside and replied: "Madam said, pack up Qiu Bai's things and send them out." Xiaochu jumped up in front of Chu Huaixian, held his hand and said anxiously, "You really can't stay?" Chu Huaixian smiled and said, "No." Xiaochu's eyes looked into Chu Huaixian's eyes and pleaded again, "What do I beg you? Even if she stays as a sweeping girl, I beg you.
Chu Huaixian said softly, "There are family rules, and even if you break it, you will be punished. Listen, go to your room and sleep in my room.
Then he ordered Xia Lu: "Pack up Qiu Bai's things and send them out." He picked up Lin Xiaochu and went to the room. The girls in the room were frightened. It took a long time for Bihen to react and quietly asked Xiaoyi, "Oh, you will be the master girl in the future." Xiaoyi smiled and said, "My sister said no."
Xia Lu took someone to clean up Qiu Bai's things, and then came to the room and whispered to the girl who stayed in the room, "Haven't you finished crying in the room?" The girl waved her hand and whispered, "The prince is coaxing. It's really strange that I just inquired. Qiu Bai beat and scolded Xiaochu, but Xiaochu pleaded for her.
"This is what Qiu Bai wanted," Xia Lu sighed: "At least Xiaochu was willing to plead for her. If it had been someone else, she would have stepped on it." The girl also laughed quietly: "Xiaochu, but she doesn't step on people." Xia Lu said again, "She is bullying people, and then people bullying her, like a cat stepped on its tail."
The cat that was trampled on its tail seems to have broken its tail today. While lying on the bedding of his night, Chu Huaixian sat next to him and coaxed: "Why are you crying? There is nothing to cry about. If you don't kiss, it's not always difficult for you. You should like it when you leave this time.
"I don't like it!" Xiaochu said with hatred, "Does the prince know how she lives after being chased out?" Chu Huaixian was funny: "She should know better than me. Since she knows, she shouldn't do it."
Xiaochu lay on the pillow without saying anything. Chu Huaixian lowered his body and said, "Are you so virtuous? It's really strange that he suddenly became a virtuous person. Xiaochu held the veil that was wet by himself and thought angrily that this was all caused by the prince, which provoked Qiu Bai and a lot of people.
Xiaochu irresponsibly blamed Chu Huaixian for his peach blossoms everywhere.
