Xie Yunqing came out of Gu Yunshuang’s courtyard and went directly to the old lady’s nursing home to greet the old lady.
The old lady had a verbal argument with Xie Yan a few days ago, and her head hurts with anger. She was lying on the ground all day and reluctant to walk around.
When Xie Yunqing entered, the old lady was half leaning on the head of the bed, and Cheng Lin was massaging the old lady's shoulders and back. When Cheng Lin saw Xie Yunqing, there was a moment of embarrassment on her face, and the movements on her hands slowed down a few beats. Xie Yunqing didn't even notice it, and smiled to give a salute: "Grandma has been ill for a long time. I look at her face today, but how good is it?"
Seeing Xie Yunqing, the old lady's face stretched a little bit, and she snorted softly, "As long as you don't come to anger me, where can I have these disasters?"
Xie Yunqing nodded in agreement, "Grandma is broken for the aunt and cousin's affairs, grandma should relax, I believe aunts and cousins will understand your painstaking efforts."
The old lady was so choked by Xie Yunqing’s words that she couldn’t catch her breath, but Xie Yunqing said to Cheng Lin: “Cousin, grandmother has been in a bad mood recently. She has always liked you the most. You should take good care of your grandmother and don’t make her angry.” When she said this, her face was extremely sincere and her tone of voice was so considerate. Cheng Lin couldn't detect whether Xie Yunqing was pretentious or sincere, so she nodded.
Xie Yunqing smiled and said, "If there is nothing wrong, I will go back first, so I won't disturb my grandmother's cleansing."
The old lady waved her hand long ago and didn't let anyone go out to see him off.
"Grandma, how come the cousin's temperament has changed so much?" Cheng Lin continued to knead her shoulders for the old lady. These days, she and Xie Yunqing get along with each other and find that this cousin no longer acts as arrogant, arrogant and domineering as she did when she was a child. They are all soft-spoken, just like a clay figure with no temper.
The old lady grabbed her eyebrows and said, "Who knows how that girl suddenly turned her temper. She used to be reckless and impulsive, and she could blow her hair when she was provoked, but now she is as cunning as a fox, and no one can catch her tail."
"Couldn't it be your aunt who taught her cousin to fight against you? As you know, your aunt has always been uncomfortable with you, so she hides behind her cousin because she doesn't want to show up, and the mother and daughter design you together?" Cheng Lin speculated.
The old lady heard Gu Yunshuang's headache worse, she said: "Don't mention the Gu family to me, I don't want to see Gu family again from now on."
Cheng Lin hurriedly said, "Okay, well, let's not mention her."
The old lady sighed sadly, "God is unfair, let me be such a daughter-in-law, thinking that when she was pregnant with your second cousin, I was afraid that your uncle was not waiting for you, so I specially selected two appearances. Zhou Zheng's maid went to serve your uncle. Who knows that your uncle didn't touch any of them, and they were all sent back. You said, if your aunt wasn't jealous, could your uncle go against my wishes?"
The old lady ignored that Cheng Lin was an unmarried girl. Once the chat box was opened, she couldn't hold it anymore. She poured bitterness on Cheng Lin.
While listening, Cheng Lin wanted to calm the old lady's emotions. But in my heart, I thought that my mother would not allow my father to take concubines, and the old lady also sent someone to help her mother. On the aunt's side, he stuffed people into his uncle's house during the aunt's pregnancy. The uncle refused to accept them, but blamed the aunt for being intolerant.
Is it true that the mother-in-law in the world can't understand the daughter-in-law
This is true of my grandmother, and so is my own grandmother.
Cheng Lin bit her lip, she was afraid that she would run into a picky mother-in-law in the future.
She is not like Xie Yunqing. Xie Yunqing is the jewel in the palm of her uncle. She has three older brothers to maintain her, and she will not be wronged anywhere in the future. As for her, her relationship with her family, the Cheng family, was very bad. She had lost her father a long time ago, and her grandmother had long ago hated the three of them.
Grandma said she wanted to protect herself, but she didn't have much ability in Xie's house. She could see that the real master in Xie's backyard was his aunt. My uncle respected my grandmother, but now my grandmother's behavior has chilled my uncle. Besides, it's not a real mother and son who are related by blood. Where can the uncle be obedient to the grandmother
Grandma is totally speechless in Xie's family. She is now in her sixties, frail and sick, and she may not know how long she can live. How can she rely on her grandmother for her life
The old lady was still chattering, but Cheng Lin bit her lip impatiently. The old lady turned her back to Cheng Lin, so she didn't see Cheng Lin's expression. Cheng Lin had impatience in her eyes, and even a hint of hatred.
Cheng Lin was really angry with her grandmother at this time. If it weren't for her grandmother, she wouldn't be the subject of chatting among the people in the city at this time. Originally, she was an innocent girl, but her reputation was stained.
Cheng Lin was squeezing her shoulders for the old lady, thinking about what was going on, she moved a little more vigorously, the old lady gasped in pain, and said displeasedly: "Why are you doing things insignificantly? With so much force, it hurts. I'm dead, and I don't know if you will bruise my shoulder."
Cheng Lin thought it was really funny. What the old lady said that she loves herself and her sister the most, in fact, she is still pretending to be herself. Selfish and stupid.
When she came out of the old lady’s yard, she looked at the blue sky and said to the maid who was taking care of herself: "You can ask for me why the lady has changed her temper suddenly."
She didn't believe it, Xie Yunqing changed her temper in a short time, and she didn't know what else happened behind her back.
The maid hurriedly responded.
After Xie Yunqing's greeting to the old lady, he took the maids and women out of the house, riding a carriage, galloping all the way.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Baihuazhuang, Xie Yunqing looked at the plaque on it, touched the token in his purse, and walked in.
Xie Yunqing went in, and before the maids came to greet him, he opened the door and said, "I want to see Lady Goose."
The maid was taken aback, and then said, "Thank you, our boss does not entertain visitors. We can solve your needs or questions for you."
Xie Yunqing insisted on insisting, "I must see Lady Goose. If you send someone to ask Lady Goose for instructions, you will tell her that I was introduced by your boss."
Seeing that she couldn’t persuade her, she went upstairs. Not long after, the maid came down and said, "Lady Goose, please go up and talk." The maid also had doubts in her heart. She had been in Baihuazhuang for three years. I haven't seen the owner, and I don't know where this young girl from the Xie family met the owner.
Xie Yunqing rolled up his long dress, went up the stairs, and under the guidance of the maid, he entered the third left turn.
Rooms.
The rooms are large and decorated very atmospheric. Landscape pictures are hung on the wall, and on the table next to the window is a azure porcelain vase with a few warm peony flowers in it.
Behind the screen, the voice of Xisuosuo came. Immediately there was a coquettish woman's voice, "Is that Miss Xie outside? Come sit down and talk."
Xie Yunqing walked around the screen, and as soon as it passed, there was a fragrant smell, which made the bones crisp when smelled.
There was only one soft couch behind the screen, a slim figure, and the woman who had to be squeezed by the willow waist was half lying on the soft couch, holding a light fan in her hand, and sniffing gently under her nose.
The woman's long black hair was as smooth as satin, draped over her plump shoulders. The slender eyes are flattering, as if they are a charming fox. The woman is wearing a purple dress with her feet open, and she is naturally charming.
This is Lady Yan, the owner of Baihuazhuang.
Baihuazhuang manages her daughter's rouge gouache and snail lipstick, but the boss's face is clean and there is no trace of rouge, but his body is very fragrant.
Although Yan Lady's facial features are not the most delicate of all the women Xie Yunqing has ever seen, she has a tactful and charming style with her smiles and smiles, which she has never seen before.
Just looking at the appearance of Lady Yan, she is only 20 years old, but she started to take over the affairs of Baihuazhuang when she was 13 years old, and now she has been the boss for six years. This is undoubtedly a very smart and capable woman.
Xie Yunqing stepped forward and bowed her knees to salute: "It is said that Lady Yan is a wonderful person unparalleled in the world. When I saw it today, I really deserved the name."
Lady Goose covered most of her face with a fan in her hand, and only a pair of beautiful eyes were left with a pair of beautiful eyes, her voice was as sweet as a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, "What a sweet and lovable little girl, you sit down, I'm okay. Do it, talk to me."
Xie Yunqing looked at the thick stack of bamboo slips next to Lady Yan. Is this nothing to do
Lady Yan followed Xie Yunqing’s eyes and smiled, “I’m a bit messy here, you just leave it freely, listen to the girl, do you know our boss?” She lightly hit the case table with the fan in her hand, leaving a crisp sound.
Xie Yunqing said, "Baihuazhuang, Ruyifang, Jinxiufang, Cuiyuxuan, and Donglin Academy are all of this property. Your owner and I happened to have met several times."
Lady Yan still smiled and said: "Why, what do our boss let you do? Learn how to make rouge with me? This is the secret recipe of our Baihuazhuang, which has never been circulated, even if the boss opens up, I will not agree. "
Xie Yunqing said: "Naturally not, I just came to get something from Lady Yan."
"What is it?" Lady Yanyan was a little strange, this little girl is not very old, but she has a good temperament.
"The secret guard of the Ministry of Zhuozi." Xie Yunqing spit out these words slowly.
"Papa—" There was a sound of falling to the ground without holding the fan in Lady Yan's hand.
"Are you kidding?" Lady Yan went into a loss for a moment, and then resumed her calm posture. "I'm just the owner of a rouge shop. Where do you know the hidden guard?" She took off the jade bracelet on her wrist and played with it. .
"No, you know." Xie Yunqing said confidently, "otherwise I won't come."
