Chapter 2
Mao Mingxuan nodded seriously and said, "I'll go and tell my husband tomorrow morning that I'm going to ask for leave for these two days!"
When she heard that her brother, a good student, was willing to ask for a two-day leave for her, Mao Tongtong was deeply moved.Looking at Ama and Erniang again, their eyes turned red unconsciously.But she was afraid that Mrs. Chen and the others would be sad when they saw it, so she quickly sniffed and said with a smile: "It seems that I still have some weight in my brother's heart, and it can be worth two days off!"
"You bastard!" Chen scolded with a smile, "Arranging your big brother again!"
Mao Mingxuan helplessly looked at Mao Tongtong and shook his head with a smile. My sister is so eccentric, it really makes people feel distressed.He didn't see her slightly red eyes just now.
While talking, dinner was delivered from the kitchen.
The maids fetched water to wash the hands of the four of them, and when the dishes were all set on the table, they took their seats one by one.
The Mao family has a simple population and their daily life is simple.Four people sit at a small round table, four meat, two vegetarian, six hot dishes, plus a cup of hot soup, and that is dinner.There is no rule of not talking when eating or sleeping on the table.The family chatted while eating, and it was very happy.
After dinner, brothers and sisters Mao Tongtong and Mao Mingxuan accompanied Mao Chengyun and Mrs. Chen to talk again, and then they got up and went back to their respective rooms.
The courtyards of the brothers and sisters happened to be on both sides of the main courtyard, so when they got out of the main courtyard, one had to go to the left and the other to the right.Mao Mingxuan rubbed Mao Tongtong's head habitually, and said with a slight smile, "I will pick you up tomorrow when my brother comes back from the academy for leave."
Mao Tongtong didn't dodge either, and let Mao Mingxuan mess up his hair, grinning with white teeth bared: "Brother, don't go too early, I want to sleep more!"
"You!" Mao Mingxuan gave a doting smile, and tidied Mao Tongtong's hair before turning around and leaving.
The second day was a sunny day.As soon as Mao Tongtong opened his eyes, he lifted the curtain on the bed and saw the sun shining in through the window.
"Miss is awake? Eldest Young Master has been waiting outside for quite a while." Tao Hua came over with a smile.
"Then why don't you call me!" Mao Tongtong scolded, got out of bed quickly, and shouted to the outside, "Brother, if you wait patiently for me for a quarter of an hour, I'll be fine soon!"
Mao Mingxuan chuckled outside, and said unhurriedly: "No rush, I will spend the whole day with you."
Mao Tongtong benefited greatly from his elder brother's doting, so he hurried behind the screen to wash up.
"Brother, help me choose jewelry!"
Hearing his sister's call, Mao Mingxuan smiled even more. He walked in and saw that Mao Tongtong had already combed his curly hair and was worrying about the jewelry box.
"Sister looks good today, so let's wear this peach hairpin." Mao Mingxuan reached out his hand and took a silver backing from the box, and inserted the peach hairpin inlaid with pink pearls into Mao Tongtong's hair bun.
Mao Mingxuan took a step back and looked at it carefully, and said, "A peach blossom on a human face."
"Naturally beautiful!" Mao Tongtong replied boldly.
Mao Mingxuan nodded with a suppressed smile, apparently already accustomed to Mao Tongtong's boasting.
After dressing up and having breakfast, the siblings went out.
Go to the jewelry store first.After all, she was going to Beijing for an audition, and Mao Mingxuan wanted to choose a better set of jewelry for her.
Yumantang is a well-known old store in Yangzhou City. The jewelry inside is not only new in style, but also well made, and the materials are a little expensive.Seeing that Mao Mingxuan brought her here, Mao Tongtong couldn't help whispering: "Brother, the jewelry here is not cheap, let's go elsewhere."
"It's here, let's take a look." Mao Mingxuan said.Today he brought out all the money he had saved in his daily life.
Knowing his brother's intentions, Mao Tongtong was moved, and followed Mao Mingxuan into the room.But he made up his mind in his heart that he would say that he didn't like it in a while, lest the eldest brother spend money.
Beautiful jewelry is inherently attractive to women, and Mao Tongtong said in his heart that he must not be tempted, must not be tempted.But his eyes were shining brightly, and he didn't want to take his eyes off the exquisite jewelry.
Mao Mingxuan also looked at it seriously, pointed at the counter and said, "This suet white jade magnolia flower hairpin is very good, does my sister like it?"
As expected of brothers and sisters, they really have a tacit understanding.Mao Tongtong also happened to take a fancy to this hairpin.But she also knew that the high-quality suet white jade was also expensive, so she took a look and said, "Brother, I don't like magnolia flowers, let's look at other things."
Mao Mingxuan glanced at her, felt sorry for her and said in a low voice: "Sister, don't worry about money. Since brother brought you in, he is naturally prepared."
Although he is young, he does things steadily and never does anything he is not sure about.
Mao Tongtong was about to find another reason to push this matter away, when four people suddenly entered the door.
The leading man was about the same age as Mao Mingxuan, wearing a royal blue robe, with a clear face and an air of nobility all over his body.Followed by three people, one was slightly shorter than the man, followed closely behind with a respectful face, while the other two had solemn faces, sizing up the people in the shop cautiously.
The shopkeeper of Yumantang is also well-informed, and when he saw this man, he hurried up to greet him.The man lowered his head slightly and didn't know what to say, so the shopkeeper invited him into the private room on the second floor with a smile on his face.
"Seeing that the shopkeeper is happy, he has been taken advantage of." Mao Tongtong murmured to Mao Mingxuan in a low voice.
Mao Mingxuan's face was a bit serious, looking thoughtfully at the background of the man going upstairs.
"Brother, what's the matter?" Mao Tongtong asked.
Mao Mingxuan shook his head and said, "Nothing, let's continue."
Seeing that the eldest brother was unwilling to speak, Mao Tongtong didn't bother to ask. He lowered his head and looked at the hairpin again, then tugged at Mao Mingxuan's sleeve and said, "Brother, let's go, I want to visit another house."
"Tongtong, don't save money for eldest brother." Mao Mingxuan said.
"Brother, I was rushing to lose the election, why wear such fine jewelry. You'd better wait until my big wedding to give it to me!" Mao Tongtong continued to persuade.
"You, I'm really shameless." Mao Mingxuan said helplessly, but he also knew that what she said was right, so he decided not to buy it yet.
The two reached an agreement and were about to leave. At this time, the man who had just gone up to the second floor happened to come down as well.The shopkeeper followed behind with a happy face, and when he looked at the two jewelry boxes held by the short man behind the man, he knew that he had bought a lot of things.
Because Mao Tongtong and his sister were next to the stairs, the man noticed it when he went downstairs, looked over and then looked away.Just passed the two of them and left the shop.
The man's somewhat arrogant attitude made Mao Tongtong couldn't help slandering in his heart: "It's amazing to be rich, and you're foolish to be taken advantage of. The shopkeeper doesn't know how much the price has been raised!"
Mao Mingxuan looked at the man's back and frowned again, with a faint guess in his heart.
