Seemingly unable to find a suitable adjective, Wu Yuan thought for a while before saying the word "cold".
Seeing Wu Yuan's confused look, Master Huicheng taught earnestly, "This girl's star is not straight, she is the demon star that defeats the Phoenix star. Wu Yuan, next time if the Shen family girl passes by, remember to avoid it. Don't do it." If she comes close to you again." Wu Yuan grew up in Buddhism since he was a child, and he doesn't understand the ways of the world, but his fate is also unpredictable. As soon as Wu Yuan and Shen Jingci got close today, Master Huicheng felt that something was wrong, so he left Shen Jingci behind. Who knew that he had just figured it out and saw a big problem!
It's just that if you tell Wu Yuan these things, he may not understand them, so as a master, you should worry more.
"Yes, I will obey my master's teachings." Although Wu Yuan didn't understand much, he also knew that Feng Xing was the star of the mother of the country in this dynasty. Since that woman is a demon star, she must be a very bad person. So the master was right to be cold to her!
Seeing that he still looked confused, Master Huicheng couldn't help but shook his head, turned around, walked to the bookshelf, and started to put away the scriptures that he had not read before.
Wu Yuan followed him, but then thought of another thing, "Master, is it really just because of Feng Xing that you care so much about the Xie family?"
For some reason, Wu Yuan always felt that his master must have hidden many things from him. For example, he and Mr. Xie always had an extraordinary sense of familiarity with each other. For another example, when Mr. Xie looked at his master, he seemed to be showing pity and distress.
After hearing this, Master Huicheng's face, which had not changed for a hundred years, finally became a little looser.
"You're a rebellious disciple. You don't talk so much on weekdays. Are you lazy in today's morning class? Go and bring the scriptures you copied to my teacher for review." Master Huicheng straightened his face as if to hide it, and turned his back. commanded.
After hearing this, Wu Yuan immediately grimaced and said, "Disciple, I obey." However, there was a certain amount of heaviness in his walking steps. It's over, it's over this time! It's all your own fault, why talk so much when there's nothing wrong!
Master Huicheng watched Wu Yuan's leaving figure through the window and couldn't help but smile. But after remembering what he just said, a wry smile appeared again.
His relationship with the Xie family was indeed extraordinary, but that past event was so long ago that if no one mentioned it, he would have even deliberately forgotten it.
That incident happened before he became a monk.
In the mist and rain halfway up the mountain, another person's face seemed to appear, calling softly "Qingchuan."
Master Huicheng looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, and his eyes, which had always been filled with compassion, turned a little red.
The tenth day of the twelfth lunar month is the birthday of the old lady of the Qiao family. Xie Huainan is already on duty, so naturally he won't go. According to the signal, Mrs. Qiao packed up early this morning and took her three children to Qiao's house for a banquet.
Qiao's natal family is a merchant family. Although the business is large, there has not been a single official in several generations. On the contrary, her grandfather was quite famous and was a miracle doctor appointed by Emperor Taizu. If it hadn't been for the subsequent decline of the Lu family, Mrs. Qiao's mother would not have married into the Qiao family. Later, when the matchmaker came to discuss marriage, the Xie family also fell in love with Qiao's maternal ancestor's reputation, so they married Qiao.
Although the Xie family doesn't like to see the Qiao family's businesslike appearance, they are satisfied with Mrs. Qiao's daughter-in-law. Therefore, when the old lady of the Qiao family celebrated her birthday, the Xie family gave her a car full of gifts.
As soon as Mrs. Qiao got out of the car with her three children, she heard a woman at the gate laughing and saying, "Hey, the magpie that chirped just now turned out to be my sister-in-law who is back. It's been a hard journey, is it cold?" Come in quickly."
Xie Ruzhuo looked up and saw a woman standing at the door. She was about forty years old. She was wearing a peony-patterned raccoon-flower jacket, a pair of phoenix jade-patterned cotton trousers, and a gold-rimmed belt tied around her waist. In the meantime. He was wearing a silver fox fur satin cloak, his head was surrounded by pearls and emeralds, his face was painted like a palette, and he looked extremely wealthy.
When Mrs. Qiao saw the visitor, she smiled slightly and said, "Why is my sister-in-law standing at the door in such a cold weather? It really upsets me."
Zhou Xuelan's eyes first turned to the carriage behind her, and then she smiled and said, "You're so polite. Come on, come on. Why do you bring so many things? See you later, my old lady." Well, I have to say that you have spent a lot of money."
While talking, Zhou Xuelan ordered the servants, "Bring the car in quickly and get some good food to feed it. Hey, slow down, don't touch the gifts brought by my aunt!"
A flash of displeasure flashed in Mrs. Qiao's eyes, but she didn't say anything. She only led the three sisters, Xie Ruzhuo, and her brother through the door.
Zhou Xuelan was busy taking care of the gifts, so she asked a woman to follow Ms. Qiao into the house, while she happily counted the gifts.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw the maid Dian Cui sitting under the corridor. After seeing Mrs. Qiao, Dian Cui suddenly said happily, "But it's here. The old lady has said it several times, why her precious grandson hasn't arrived yet." Woolen cloth."
Diancui said, opened the curtain, welcomed the group of four people in, smiled at the main room, "Old lady, who do you think is here?"
There was an old lady sitting in the middle of the room. She had gray hair, her eyebrows were very similar to Mr. Qiao's, and she had a kind face. After seeing Xie Huailin, Mrs. Qiao stood up first, took Xie Huailin's hand, and said with a smile, "Yong'an has grown taller again, come and show grandma a good look."
Xie Huailin was young and had not seen much of Mrs. Qiao. Seeing how enthusiastic she was at this time, he said a little cautiously, "Greetings to grandma."
"Okay, okay." Old Mrs. Qiao laughed so hard that she hugged Xie Huailin and screamed for a long time. Then she looked at sisters Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue with a smile and said, "These two girls are getting more and more confused. You’re so handsome, sit down quickly.”
The two agreed and followed the girl's guidance and sat down at the lower end.
Mrs. Qiao had not seen her daughter for a long time, and she couldn't hold back her chatter for a while, so she chatted for a long time about the family affairs in the east and west. Mrs. Qiao felt a little sleepy when she saw Xie Huailin, and with her two daughters here, she couldn't talk much. So he smiled and said, "Mom, these three children are so boring. Why don't we let the two of them take Yong'an to play nearby."
After hearing this, Mrs. Qiao knew that it was inconvenient for Mrs. Qiao to say something, and she immediately smiled and said, "Look at me, I'm already confused. Dian Cui, go and take your cousin to play in the west wing."
Diancui responded and reached out to hug Xie Huailin. Unexpectedly, Xie Huailin dodged away, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and shouted softly, "Fourth sister hugs me."
Seeing this, Xie Ruzhuo lovingly held Xie Huailin in his arms, then looked at Dian Cui apologetically and said, "Can you please lead the way, girl?"
Seeing Xie Ruzhuo like this, Mrs. Qiao looked at Mrs. Qiao with some differences. Seeing that the latter was used to it, she couldn't help but wonder secretly in her heart.
After the three of them left, Mrs. Qiao said, "Shuang'er, what happened to this girl? She changed her temper?" She had her own network of connections, and she basically knew something about her daughter's life in the Xie family. Now that I saw Xie Ruzhuo acting so uncharacteristically, I immediately became a little wary.
Mrs. Qiao said softly, "Maybe you have grown up, and now you are sincere to me." As she said that, she briefly recounted what happened in the Xie family these days.
After returning that day, she made a careful investigation and discovered that it was not that something had happened in her yard, but Xie Ruzhuo had taken care of it for her!
If Mrs. Qiao was just moved before, after finding out about this incident, she completely treated Xie Ruzhuo as her own daughter!
"Well, if you say so, this child is good. After all, even if she is her biological daughter, she is still a filial daughter." Old Mrs. Qiao only has a daughter, so naturally she dotes on her very much. Now that I know that my daughter is living so happily in the Xie family, I feel much more comfortable talking about Xie Ruzhuo.
After the mother and daughter said these words, Qiao changed the topic to something else.
Xie Huailin was young after all. On the way to the west wing, he fell asleep in Xie Ruzhuo's arms. After putting Xie Huailin on the bed, Xie Ruzhuo booed, and then went to the outer hall of the west wing with Xie Ruyue.
After Diancui brought the person there, he ordered the maid to bring some refreshments and serve them well, and then went back to the old lady's yard.
Xie Ruyue took a sip of tea, frowned and said, "It's really good tea, but it's a pity that I didn't meet anyone who knows how to make tea, so it was a waste."
Xie Ruzhuo glanced at her with a smile and said in a low voice, "There are so many picky people, just drink it and go back in a while." She followed her just to avoid making Mr. Qiao feel uncomfortable, but it didn't mean that she I just like the Qiao family.
After all, the Qiao family is really not that good. Not to mention others, the eldest daughter of the Qiao family must be the first to be hated.
Just when Xie Ruzhuo thought of Qiao Ziyun, he heard a girl's cute voice outside the door, "Is Sister Xie here?"
The maid guarding outside the door responded "Yes" and saw Qiao Ziyun appearing like a butterfly.
It was a winter day, and there was a bit of plainness everywhere. Qiao Ziyun wore a bright red jacket, covered with jewels and jade, and wore jingle bells as she walked. She hurried into the house, took the purple fox fur coat, handed it to the maid, and said, "It's so cold here, a few steps can kill someone."
As she said that, she looked at Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruzhuo again, and said with a smile, "Two cousins, you came very early, you are not cold in such thin clothes, do you want me to ask the maid to add another basin of charcoal?" "
Qiao Ziyun had a baby face, and when she spoke, her two dimples appeared naturally, making her look instantly cute. She is one year younger than Xie Ruzhuo, and her words are full of girlish charm.
If Xie Ruzhuo hadn't noticed the calculation in her eyes, he might have been deceived by her. It's a pity that Xie Ruzhuo, who has been reborn, has an earth-shaking understanding of people and things.
After hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo just smiled distantly and said, "No need to bother, cousin, please keep your voice down, Yong'an is sleeping in the back room."
Hearing this, Qiao Ziyun immediately covered her mouth and shushed, "Well, this little lazy boy, why did he fall asleep now?"
Xie Ruzhuo didn't answer her words and just said, "I don't know if my mother needs help." They brought a lot of things today. Judging from Zhou Xuelan's posture, if Qiao didn't watch, more than half of the things would have been buried. In Zhou Xuelan's private room.
"Don't worry, you are guests, grandma won't burden auntie." Qiao Ziyun said hurriedly for fear that others would ignore her. Qiao Ziyun couldn't help but feel happy when she thought about what she saw when she went to the warehouse just now. Although the Qiao family is rich, they are still businessmen. They can usually see but not touch those things that have a price but no market.
