lucky star girl

Chapter 30
Xu Shiqiu guessed what Dong Shu was thinking when he saw Dong Shu's expression, but he thought so too, so he didn't interrupt her thoughts.

It's getting late now, Xu Shiqiu called Cuihua to bring some hot water, and then whispered in Dong Shu's ear: "Lady, it's getting late, do you want to wash up and rest? Didn't you make an appointment with Yanzhu tomorrow?" Do you want to meet?"

When Dong Shu heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she regained consciousness in an instant, raised her eyes to look at him, and said shyly, "Yes, Mr., wait a moment, I'll go wash up right away." After saying this, Dong Shu said Quickly got up and walked towards the ear room.

Seeing the back of the little lady as if running away quickly, Xu Shiqiu held back a smile, shook his head, and went to the study to write a letter.

Those uncles of my father didn't read any books, but they learned to read in the military middle school later, so this letter should be written more straightforwardly.

Thinking like this, the ink in Xu Shiqiu's inkstone had already been ground.

Spreading the paper, picking up the pen, all the movements are smooth and smooth. After the two pieces of letter paper are finished, the ink in the inkstone has just run out.

When Dong Shu finished washing and came back, Xu Shiqiu just checked the letter in his hand again to make sure it was correct. Seeing Dong Shu approaching from the corner of the eye, Xu Shiqiu hurriedly put down the letter paper in his hand, raised his head and smiled at her, "Young lady's action!" Hurry up, I just wrote this letter."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's voice, Dong Shu paused in his walking steps, and just when she didn't know whether to continue walking, she heard Xu Shiqiu say: "But my place has just ended, my lady has to come and learn a few more words." ?”

When Xu Shiqiu's words fell, Dong Shu directly walked towards him, and when she got to his side, she looked up at him and said, "Then I will learn a few more words from Xianggong."

Dong Shu has always been a love of learning, no matter when she was in the Dong family or after marrying into the Xu family.

She would always imitate the people around her. Before, she wanted to imitate her aunt Dai's aggressiveness in protecting herself, but now she would learn manners from Xu Yanzhu, and learn to read from Xu Shiqiu.

Every time she learned to read with Xu Shiqiu, she was extremely serious, and she didn't know that Xu Shiqiu enjoyed this time very much, and only thought that it would make him happy if there was such a time every day.

But time will eventually slip away.

It has been four days since Dong Shu came to Hong Kong, and today Dong Shu felt much lighter in the morning, and before she could be happy, Cuihua hurriedly approached, looked at her and Xu Shiqiu and said, "Master, madam. The concierge came to inform, Uncle and Second Master will arrive at the door in half an hour."

Since Shi Huan Yuan had green flowers, Xu's servants also boldly approached Shi Huan Yuan.

The news was delivered very quickly, after all, Cuihua stayed in the front yard during the day, as long as she called at the door, she could hear it.

After Dong Shu heard Cuihua's words, she subconsciously looked at Xu Shiqiu, and a nervousness slipped through her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Xu Shiqiu frowned slightly and said in displeasure: "Come back when you come back, maybe you still expect me to pick you up at the door?" They can't?"

Although the elder brother and the second elder brother are his elder brothers, they are not elders after all. He will take the little lady to his mother's place and wait there later, there is no need to go to the door to greet him.

On the other hand, Yanzhu was afraid that she would have to go to the door and wait for her uncle and father.

Of course, the main reason why Xu Shiqiu was so unhappy was the momentary tension in Dong Shu's eyes just now.

In Xu Shiqiu's heart, his little lady is the most important person, and the elder brother and the second elder brother are going home, so naturally there is no need for him to greet them.

Dong Shu didn't know that Xu Shiqiu's displeasure was because of herself. She looked at Xianggong, and when she saw him looking at her, she hurriedly smiled at him and rolled her crescent eyes: "Xu Shiqiu, what clothes do you think I should wear today? After all, It’s the first time I see my elder brother, elder sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, and those juniors, so I can’t be too casual.” After saying this, Dong Shu thought for a while and continued: “I have to choose some gifts for the juniors, after all, I am elder."

Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu just after he finished speaking, and Dang even attracted his attention.

Xu Shiqiu got up and walked to the closet. After opening the closet and taking a closer look, he chose the bird blue long gauze dress and the silver red horse face skirt.

"Didn't mother give you a set of gemstone jewelry two days ago? The color is just right and bright, and it goes well with your dress. As for the gifts for the juniors, I have already picked them out a few days ago, and I will take them with me later." .”

Xu Shiqiu watched as Dong Shu just finished speaking, and Dong Shu nodded directly at him and said, "Well, listen to my husband." After finishing speaking, Dong Shu got up and prepared to change her dress and make up.

The color of this dress is very picky on the skin, and Dong Shu was originally fair, and these days she has been raised at home for a few days, and she looks fairer, tenderer and rounder.

After changing into her dress, Dong Shu began to comb her hair with the help of Cuihua.

Before Dong Shu didn't like to wear so many hair accessories, she always felt that it was too cumbersome, but today she put on all the hair accessories.

Picking hearts, top hairpins, masking temples, flower tinsel, hairpins, earrings, nothing will fall out.

If Dong Shu, who usually just puts on her makeup, looks like a peasant girl from the countryside, but now she changes into a dress, and Dong Shu, who is well dressed, looks like a very noble girl.

Coupled with the rules and etiquette she had learned from Xu Yanzhu these days, Xu Shiqiu was in a daze for a moment on the contrary.

Dong Shu, who was still holding it, saw her husband looking at her distractedly, she covered her mouth and snickered, "Could it be that my husband doesn't know me?"

Hearing Dong Shu's witty words, Xu Shiqiu came back to his senses, looked at her with a smile and shook his head and said: "I am used to the simple dress of the lady on weekdays, but today I am really dumbfounded by the lady's dress like this." .”

Xu Shiqiu didn't feel embarrassed for saying this at all, but Dong Shu who heard his words blushed shyly.

In fact, she tried this kind of dress up once when she was studying with Yanzhu. It happened to be in Yanzhu's yard that day, not Shihuanyuan, so Xianggong had never seen her before.

Thinking of this, Dong Shu smiled at him and said, "Then thank you for your compliment." After saying this, Dong Shu walked towards Xu Shiqiu.

The Xu family's eldest family and the second room left Xiahe Village for six years. In the previous six years, the second room came back twice, but Xu Mingyuan, who was an official in the suburbs of Beijing, never came back.

This time the two families came back together because Xu Shiqiu got married, and it was almost ten years since the Xu family left the capital, and the two families had something to report to Mrs. Xu.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't come back here.

Xu Yanzhu waited at the door to welcome his uncle's family and his parents and younger brothers. Maybe it was because he spent more time with Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu these days. Today, Xu Yanzhu changed her usual clothes and wore a set of clothes that were much brighter than usual. dress.

The upper body is a sunset-colored embroidered four gentlemen's stand-up collar and slanted sleeves, and the lower body is a water green one-piece horse-face skirt.

Although the color of the skirt was still the aqua green that Xu Yanzhu loved to wear on weekdays, the top was the sunset color that she hadn't worn in many years.

As soon as Jiang came out of the mule cart, he saw the eldest daughter who was different from the past. Before she could open her mouth, Ye Shi, who got out of the carriage first, looked at Xu Yanzhu and said, "Yanzhu looks different today. , After all, she is a big girl."

Seeing that Xu Yanzhu's words just fell, and Xu Yanzhu had no time to answer, Jiang's face changed when he heard her words, and he glanced at his sister-in-law and said, "I dare not compare with Yan Mo from my sister-in-law's family, after all, my family's Yanzhu But there is no mother who is a princess."

As soon as Jiang's sour words were finished, Ye immediately restrained the previous chuckle on his face, and after a slight contemptuous smile, he said: "They are all girls from the Xu family, and Yan Zhu was raised by her own mother. Of course it's better than Yan Mo, a skinny monkey."

As soon as Ye's words came out, Jiang was instantly blocked and didn't know how to continue to answer.

Thinking of his sister-in-law mentioning that Yanzhu was raised by his mother-in-law, Jiang suppressed his anger, looked at Xu Yanzhu and said, "You girl, why don't you know how to salute when you see uncle, aunt and parents?"

As soon as Jiang's words of reproach came out, Xu Yanzhu was immediately taken aback.

Enduring the sourness in his eyes, Xu Yanzhu was about to salute and plead guilty when he suddenly thought of what his grandmother had said to him a few days ago.

Unexpectedly, because of her stunned, Jiang Shi, who was despised by Ye Shi, was even more displeased.

"You girl, why have you forgotten the rules after two years of absence? You are also a big girl. Could it be that you have forgotten all the rules you learned before?"

Regardless of the meeting, Jiang was still in front of the gate of Xu's family, looking at the eldest daughter and asking questions.

Xu Yanzhu, who heard his mother's two questions, endured the sadness in his heart, and was just about to admit his mistake, but suddenly a voice sounded behind him.

"The old lady has been waiting for a long time, I don't know why the uncle and the second master haven't gone in to say hello yet?"

The maid who had been with the old lady for many years had just finished saying this with a sullen face, and the two brothers Xu Mingyuan and Xu Xiaozhi who had been standing aside and had not said a word immediately pleaded guilty: "It is our fault for keeping mother waiting for a long time. Go see your mother."

After the two brothers said this in unison, the maid only nodded slightly and did not speak to them again. Instead, she looked at Xu Yanzhu with a smile on her face and said, "Miss, the old lady just looked for you and said you were not around. This tea is not delicious, you see?"

Xu Yanzhu stood up straight after hearing the servant girl's voice, dispelling the thought of apologizing to Jiang.

As soon as the servant girl said this, she turned to look at the servant girl and said, "Yan Zhu missed tea with grandma, Yan Zhu will go back right away." After watching the four elders salute together, they turned and walked towards the main courtyard.

In the main courtyard, Mrs. Xu already knew what happened at the door just now.

She sat upright at the top, and before the eldest and second bedroom arrived, she glanced at Xu Shiqiu who was sitting at the bottom and said, "Your second sister-in-law hasn't improved after all these years."

After saying this, Mrs. Xu sighed softly, then looked at Dong Shu who was sitting obediently by the side, and said, "If your second sister-in-law speaks bitterly to you later, don't take it to heart. Mother will make the decision for you."

Although Dong Shu is a little silly, but these days she and Xu Yanzhu are together almost every day, and their relationship is naturally unusual.

It's just that she doesn't know the second sister-in-law after all, and the second sister-in-law is Yanzhu's biological mother, so it's inconvenient for her to speak up for her.

But she didn't expect that this matter might affect her.

After hearing Mrs. Xu's words, Dong Shu hurriedly glanced at Xu Shiqiu. After seeing him nodding slightly, she hurriedly looked at Mrs. Xu with a cute smile and said, "I listen to mother."

As Dong Shu's voice fell, Mrs. Xu also nodded with satisfaction.

He gave birth to three sons, but in the end, it seemed that the third son who was the only one to marry a wife was not afraid of his wife.

The old lady Xu sighed inwardly, and just as she was about to continue speaking, she saw the servant woman leading Xu Yanzhu back first, and behind them both, everyone in the first room and the second room followed.

Seeing them, Mrs. Xu immediately straightened her back, and her eyes were no longer as gentle as before, but became sharper.

Both Dong Shu and Xu Shiqiu noticed the change in Mrs. Xu, Xu Shiqiu was still casual, but Dong Shu quickly sat upright and waited for them to arrive.
