The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 49

At noon on the second day, Xu Yuxing came back with Dawei. Xie Yujiao, after meeting two housekeepers in the study outside, was taking care of a pot of freshly sprouted meat with a small shovel.

She originally thought that there were no such things in ancient times, but who knew that when Liu Fugen took Ziyan to buy things for Xu Huiru last time, Ziyan saw this thing in a bonsai shop in the city, she saw it was very interesting, so she bought it Come back with a few pots.Xie Yujiao didn't expect that there was such a Dongmai in ancient times, so she was happy for a while, and personally bought a beautiful porcelain basin and brought it to the study.

After busying with the accounts every day, basking in the sun and taking care of the meat, this day is simply wonderful.Xie Yujiao took a small spoon and sprinkled a few drops of water on the meat, and was about to loosen the soil, but who knew that the magpie ran in from outside, panting and hurriedly said: "Miss is not good Aunt Liu cut her own pulse!"

Xie Yujiao herself has a quick temper, and she was not happy seeing the maid in a hurry, and chatted with Xu for half a day last night, and felt that Aunt Liu was not like a fuel-efficient lamp, so she didn't feel good about it, so she just continued Watered the meat with a small spoon, and asked casually: "What are you doing in a panic, is he dead?"

The magpie came to report the news in a hurry, but it was still hanging in my heart!Who knew that Xie Yujiao would have such an attitude, suddenly felt that she seemed to be using too much force, she couldn't laugh or cry, she said: "Probably not dead, my wife and uncle have passed, my wife asked me to report to the girl! "

When Xie Yujiao heard this, she more or less understood, probably Xu Shi asked Xu Yuxing to tell about Aunt Liu's matter, Xu Yuxing probably didn't agree, otherwise what would you do if you were looking for death?Thinking of this, Xie Yujiao's brows furrowed even more. She had heard that Aunt Liu was bought back by Xu Yuxing because she had no breasts. At least her body was clean.But looking at it now, after all, it is a person who was cultivated in that kind of place. Even if his body is clean, he is afraid that his heart and mind will not be clean.

"Okay, I see, let's go." Xie Yujiao put down the thing in her hand, straightened her clothes, and went to the small courtyard where Aunt Liu lived with Magpie.Along the way, there were always a few maids chattering in private, watching Xie Yujiao pass by, wanting to watch the fun, but not daring to get too close.

Xie Yujiao walked in from the outside and saw a few maids standing outside the courtyard. Mrs. Xu came out of the room with a clearly perplexed look on her face.Seeing Xie Yujiao coming, she just went up to greet her and said, "I didn't expect Aunt Liu to be so hot-tempered. I heard that your uncle didn't want her, so I couldn't figure it out."

Seeing the sympathy on Xu's face, Xie Yujiao couldn't help but said: "Mom, you are too confused. Aunt Liu is Daddy's concubine. If she hanged herself and cut her pulse because of Daddy, I would look up to her." She is a little bit, now she is for someone else, and mother still sympathizes with her, so what will happen to daddy!"

The Xu family is used to being virtuous and virtuous, and blindly being kind to others. How could he have thought of this, but now that Xie Yujiao mentions it like this, he just feels that he is completely confused.Rubbing her forehead, she said, "I saw her commit suicide, and she was so frightened that she almost died. How can I think of this?"

Xie Yujiao knew Xu's temper, so she didn't say anything, she just said, "Mother has good intentions, but not all good intentions have good results. Since uncle doesn't agree to this matter, we don't need to force it. As for Aunt Liu, I'll come and talk to her."

Mrs. Xu knew that Xie Yujiao had always been decisive, and felt that she had really messed up this matter, and now she didn't have the heart to continue to take care of it, so she nodded and said: "Look at what I did, and I added to your mess again. .”

Xie Yujiao smiled and said, "Mother is kind-hearted, this is a good thing, it's just that some people have bad intentions and deliberately took advantage of mother's thoughts."

After Xie Yujiao finished speaking, she only walked a few steps inside, and faintly heard Aunt Liu crying softly in the room: "Xu Lang, you are so cruel. When you bought me, I thought it was you who wanted me." , how could I know how painful it is for you to give me up to someone else, do you know how much my heart hurts! If I had known this earlier, why would I follow you to Xie’s house..."

Xu Yuxing sat beside Aunt Liu's bed, his face still indifferent, and after listening to her finish speaking coldly, he couldn't help frowning as he looked at the person on the bed who was crying so much.

Xie Yujiao snorted coldly, and pushed the door in. Xu Yuxing looked at her in astonishment, but his expression was full of apology, and he just said, "Jiaojiao, this matter has nothing to do with you, let me handle it."

Xie Yujiao didn't let her go, she just walked over, glanced at Aunt Liu's bandaged wrist, and said with a sneer, "It's the first time I've heard that there are prostitutes in brothels who pretend to be decent concubines and don't want to be good. Could it be that it was a mistake when my uncle bought you? Now that you have regretted it, and my father is dead anyway, it is not impossible to sell you back now."

After hearing this, Aunt Liu stopped crying in fright. She just said that just to win Xu Yuxing's sympathy. When Xu Yuxing redeemed herself, I don't know how many sisters envied her. How can I say that? Those who don't want to say that if they are really sold back at this time, they will not be laughed to death.It's just that this big girl is really powerful, and she is a person who can say and do it. It sounds a little scary to hear this.

"I...even though I came to Xie's house, I didn't do anything to offend Xie's family. Why should the eldest girl say such a thing? Isn't it a joke that a person who has been an aunt in Xie's house returns to the brothel to pick up customers? Aunt Liu lowered her head, wiped her tears, stared at Xu Yuxing with her eyes, and only hoped that she could make decisions for herself.

"Since you know that you are afraid of being laughed at, what are you doing in Xie's house looking for life? Do you think that if you play some tricks, uncle will want you? If you really want to die, how can you still live well now? You clearly don't want to die, just to scare people, do you think we were all scared?" After Xie Yujiao finished speaking, without blinking, she pulled a silver hairpin from her head and threw it on Aunt Liu, With a sneer, he said, "If you die, I can declare to the public that you died for your father. In this way, you will be decent, and the Xie family will also be decent. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone? Anyway, the Xie family can still pay for the few taels of funeral money." !"

The silver hairpin was inlaid with pearls, and it was quite heavy. When it hit the brocade quilt, it immediately made a hole. Aunt Liu trembled with frightened hands, and tremblingly wanted to touch the silver hairpin. She raised her head and looked at Xu Yu walking. : "Xu Lang, are you really going to force me to death?"

Xie Yujiao only interrupted her sternly and said, "It's clear that you want to die yourself, so why is it that my uncle wants to force you to death now? Is it possible that things that others don't want in this world can be accomplished by just pretending to die? Then We all don't have to live well, and when things don't go our way, don't we just force them to die? Auntie, don't you think so?"

Xu Yuxing had just looked at Aunt Liu's fragile appearance and felt guilty, but now that Xie Yujiao's words were enlightening, he suddenly woke up and said, "What Jiaojiao said Yes, there is no relationship between you and me. If you resented me for ransoming you back then, you could have refused. If you regret it now, now that my brother-in-law has passed away, my sister is not someone who can treat my aunt , if you want to go out, I will naturally find a way to return you a free body, there is really no need to hunt for life like this."

When Aunt Liu heard this, her face suddenly changed, as if she lost her strength for a moment, she just lowered her head and began to cry.Xie Yujiao turned around from the room and left, just when she heard a little maid outside saying: "The doctor is here, do you want to call me in and have a look?"

Xie Yujiao just said casually: "You don't need to come in and take a look, Auntie is fine!"

Xu Yuxing came out of the room, and fell in love with this niece more and more. When he thought that he was almost cheated by Aunt Liu just now, he felt a little ashamed, so he sighed: "Jiaojiao, uncle wants to thank you, it's in vain for me Even people who have seen the world in Fengyue Field, sometimes they are not as transparent as you think, which makes you laugh."

Seeing Xu Yuxing being so open-minded, Xie Yujiao naturally wouldn't laugh at him, so she just said, "Uncle thanked me for what I did. In fact, if uncle doesn't want this kind of thing to happen in the future, he just needs to find me a new aunt earlier."

Xu Yuxing heard the words, after all, there was some worry on his face, and he just said: "Your cousin is quiet, and I don't say anything in my heart. I am afraid that I will wrong her. After these two years, it is the same." of."

Xie Yujiao's idea of ​​calling Xu Yuxing was indeed the same as her own, and instead persuaded him: "Uncle, actually, my cousin is already grown up, and you don't need to take care of her anymore. Even if you find a new aunt, the cousin will leave the cabinet in the future, as long as you can maintain the affection on the scene." That's enough, now that my uncle is alone, and my mother has such a temperament, it is inevitable that the emperor will not be anxious about the eunuchs, isn't the matter of Aunt Liu now an example?"

Xu Yuxing knew that what Xie Yujiao said was reasonable, but he hadn't thought about it all these years. Even if he started to think about it now, he might not have this candidate for a while!Seeing that Xu Yuxing seemed to be listening, Xie Yujiao stopped talking.

After three or five days, Aunt Liu heard something again, she only said that she wanted to go to the Peach Blossom Temple to pray for Master Xie, and she didn't want to stay in Xie's house anymore.After hearing this, Xie Yujiao said coldly: "Let her go, one tael of silver per month will be deducted from the money, and I will keep it as an offering to the Bodhisattvas in the Peach Blossom Temple. Anyway, the nunnery eats vegetarian food." , she can't spend any money."

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she only sighed lightly, but she didn't say no after all, she just ordered to go on and do as Xie Yujiao said.Seeing Xu like this, Xie Yujiao acted coquettishly again: "Mom, mother, there are fewer and fewer people in the family, but fortunately, Aunt Shen is going to give me a younger brother and sister!"
