Chapter 16 Weed 2

As soon as the fingertips touched the water, the deep cold spread from her arms to her whole body. The sixth sister quickly withdrew her hand and stood up, ready to leave the shore. "I won't pull it out, it's so cold-ah..."

The scream came from the sixth sister's mouth, and then everyone only heard a "poop" sound and splashed everywhere.

The ninth sister was stunned for a moment, allowing the cold and piercing water to be stained.

Mother Feng and several little maids were also stunned and did not come to their senses for a while.

"Come on, someone has fallen into the water, come on--

A bright purple corner of clothes stayed beside the ninth sister. She came to her senses and slowly raised her head. The man felt the ninth sister's eyes, lowered his head and looked at the ninth sister's eyes. His eyes were slightly mocked, and soon left the ninth sister. His eyes fell on the bright red in the lake.

Feng's mother and several maids finally came to their senses and kept trembling. Feng's mother tore her throat and shouted for help. Finally, even the old lady and second wife in the main courtyard were shocked.

Several maids who know water quickly jumped into the lake and picked up the sixth sister. The clothes on the sixth sister's body were all wet and kept trembling. Feng's mother quickly took off her cloak and covered the sixth sister.

Sister Jiu had already dodged. She stood aside, glanced at the corners of her mouth, and then saw the man in purple mink avoiding everyone in disgust.

When the sixth sister was sent back, Feng's mother's body kept shaking. When she remembered the ninth sister, she walked to the ninth sister's side, but she saw the man in sable's clothes, shaking into a sieve all over. She knelt on the ground tremblingly, "The old slave has seen the second aunt!"

The ninth sister's body was stiffened, but she soon relaxed. This is Xiahou Chen, the son of the Marquis of Anguo, who is rumored to have the rise of Longyang.

She lowered her eyebrows, half squatted down, and shouted respectfully, "Second brother-in-law!"

Xiahouchen's hot eyes swept over the ninth sister for a long time and said mockingly, "I haven't come to Xue's house for a long time, and I have prepared such a good play for me."

The disdain and contempt in his words, as well as the thorny eyes, made Sister Jiu feel uncomfortable all over, and his side seemed to be overwhelmed by a mountain. She bit her lips and didn't say much.

Mother Feng lay on the ground with her hands and kept kowtodding. "The second uncle was angry. The ninth sister came to Xue's house and bumped into you without knowing the rules. The second uncle should not care about the ninth sister."

Xiahouchen's eyes were full of smiles and laughed, "Get up, when did I say I had to argue with a girl?"

Sister Jiu was slightly relieved and waited for her to take a breath before raising her head and looking straight ahead.

He looked at Sister Jiu again mockingly and spit out two words between his lips and teeth, "It's so ugly!" He paused and said, "Why did Xue Fu find an ugly girl to be a lady?"

That breath had been held in Sister Jiu's chest. Her face turned red and she stared at Xia Houchen fiercely, but she saw Xia Houchen looking down at her like an ant. But she knew that these words were more aimed at Xue, otherwise there was no need for him to add another sentence. She squeezed her lips and her dark eyes flashed. It seemed that Xue's mansion had a knot with the Marquis of An, at least with the son of Anguo.

"The second aunt is here--" From afar, the second wife called out.

The ninth sister saw a large number of maids and daughters-in-law coming over surrounded by the old lady and the second wife. In this snow-covered garden, she could stand the purple and red.

The old lady's legs and feet were sharp, and her eyes showed kindness. "Your child didn't inform Xue Fu. He just came like this. I thought you would come in a few hours!"

Xiahouchen restrained his joking look and saluted the old lady slightly, but turned a blind eye to the second wife. A smile appeared on his face again. "I just missed the time to discuss with my husband at home. My mother was afraid of delaying my study, so she sent someone to tell me that I won't come today. Don't go out."

The smile on the old lady's face is stronger, "I know you work hard, but I'm afraid that I can't stand it during the Spring Festival. The second master will come back later. After all, this is the inner courtyard. Let's go to the main room first.

Xiahouchen nodded slightly.

The ninth sister unconsciously curled her lips and saw a group of people leave the garden. Just now, there was always a glance on her head. If she followed her back to the main courtyard, even if the second wife did not attack now, I'm afraid she would not give face to the old lady when the second aunt left. After all, it was she who instigated the sixth sister to go to the shore.

Her mood suddenly improved. The sixth sister was really not pushed down by her, and she was stunned for a while.

Feng's mother's face was quite pale, and the ninth sister looked at Feng's mother but smiled. When the sixth sister fell into the water just now, when the servants went to the main hospital to inform, I'm afraid the old lady also thought that she pushed the sixth sister down. After all, the sixth sister was very simple.

But she clearly saw the sixth sister surrounded by servants raising her chin and looking at her in the chaos. She smiled helplessly, and it was her original intention to let the sixth sister fall into the water. Even if the sixth sister wanted to go down, the goal was achieved. It's just that it will be a little troublesome later. The second wife must hate her. What does the old lady think of her?

The smile in her eyes was thicker, and she took Feng's mother back to Dongyuan.

*

On the other side of the main room, the old lady called the third sister to come out and put on a big red robe for Xiahou Chen. The third sister was skillful. After making the tea, she put the teacup firmly beside Xiahou Chen. Her cheeks were like rouge. She was blessed and hid behind the old lady shyly.

Xia Houchen just took a sip. The tea was fragrant. It was indeed his favorite tea, but he still put it down. "My mother wanted to come to make amends in person, but her body was not very good. Please forgive me!" He turned his head and said to the second wife, "Excuse my mother-in-law!"

The second wife felt happy all of a sudden. She didn't think that Xia Houchen would be soft. She said in a panic, "Second aunt, don't say these strange words, and your mother will be unhappy." Her eyes glanced at the old lady.

Xia Houchen also just smiled and said unexpectedly, "When I entered the house just now, I found that the ugly lady was Aunt Li's daughter? She looks different from Aunt Li at all.

In his mouth, Aunt Li is Li Yu, the mother of the ninth sister. She learned from her father and several princes that Aunt Li is a rare wonderful person. Compared with men, he only met her once by chance. I came to Xue's house just to see if Aunt Li's daughter was as wonderful as that, but unfortunately he was very disappointed.

"Sy--" The old lady and the second wife both took a breath.

A trace of disgust flashed in the old lady's eyes, but she picked up the tea to cover it up. The anger accumulated between the second wife's eyebrows was finally aroused. She said flatteringly, "The child is weak and on the coast. It's a little dark, but he doesn't think about it, but his heart is also vicious. I just asked the servants, but I didn't expect that it was her idea for the sixth sister to go to the waterside.

Speaking of this, the second wife looked indignant.

"Oh, yeah!" Xiahouchen replied without salt.

The second wife was slightly disappointed. She wanted to make the old lady not like the ninth sister by using Xia Houchen's disgust for the ninth sister, but now it seems that it has not achieved the effect she wants.

"I just saw the sixth sister suddenly stand up, slipped and fell into the lake. Her hand still wanted to catch the ugly child. Tut, fortunately, the ugly child didn't stand up, otherwise he would have to fall down together. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said with emotion, "Aunt Li's child is so cowardly, squatting there like a wooden man."

The second wife choked and saw Xia Houchen pick up the teacup and slowly blow away the tea leaves on it and take a sip. There was a brief silence in the room, but it was so strange. No one expected Xia Houchen to speak for Sister Jiu. No, it's not helpful. He just told the truth.

"The fight between the two children made you laugh!" The old lady said kindly.

After the second master came back, Xia Houchen went to the study with the second master. Only the old lady's cold face and the panicked second wife were left.

"The daughter you taught me!" The old lady shouted angrily, "Don't let her call me grandmother again. How can I have such a vicious granddaughter? She is one year older than Sister Jiu's. Don't you know that Sister Jiu's body is not good? If she falls into the water, don't you know that Sister Jiu will make it worse?

The old lady was very angry. Originally, she was worried that the ninth sister was the daughter taught by Li Yu. Although she looked a little cowardly, she was afraid that the city government would be too deep, but now she is good-minded, but she is too kind-hearted. But secretly, she actually felt relieved.

The second wife's face changed greatly, and her lips kept trembling, "Mother, don't be angry, don't be angry. The sixth sister was pinched by the ninth sister. The second uncle also said that it was the sixth sister who slipped the soles of her feet before she fell into the water. She just wanted to grab things.

The second wife now hates the sixth sister in her heart. She painstakingly found justice, but the sixth sister is so disappointing. How could she give birth to such an elm-headed daughter?

"That's all. Fortunately, the ninth sister is fine. Just now, the sixth sister was also scared and let the servants take good care of the sixth sister. Xue's face has been lost. The old lady calmed down and let the second wife go out.

The second wife's face is getting worse and worse.

The news that the sixth sister fell into the water spread quickly. As soon as the ninth sister returned to Dongyuan, several little maids saluted her and avoided her, not as respectful as usual. She looked at Feng's mother again and was relieved.

Jinxiu and the painting screen came out to greet the ninth sister, and took a clean coat to wrap the ninth sister up. She has been out for so long and frozen.

This body is really troublesome! After muttering in his heart, the ninth sister quickly hid in the room.

Charcoal fire has been burning in the room. Yao's mother held the ninth sister in her arms and muttered, "For good that you are fine. God bless you. Thank you for your blessing." She held Sister Jiu's hand and said, "Hey, you don't care about your health so much. What can you do in the future!"

The ninth sister smiled warmly, "Mother, you are so kind!"

"I watch you grow up. Who is not good to you!" Yao's mother looked at the entangled Earl anxious look.

Over there, Jinxiu quickly brought out ginger soup to warm up the ninth sister.

After drinking ginger soup, Sister Jiu finally felt warm, but suddenly remembered the purple and the looking eyes, and couldn't help laughing. In her eyes, the prince was like an arrogant rooster, but when she looked at him, she felt depressed.

It's like she looked at those unimportant people before, arrogant, and there is always an arrogant pressure on his body to suppress her. Since she came to Xue's house, she felt uncomfortable. She had estrangement from the old lady and the second wife, and even went to learn from the third sister to walk on a whim. Now it seems that it is because they all carry the noble spirit of a big family, and these are slowly precipitated. But she is just an outsider.

I suddenly felt like a weed in the lake just now, which was incompatible with the brilliance of the whole Xue mansion and even the whole world.

It can't be like this in the future...
