Di daughter is easy to marry: the stunning princess

Chapter 141 Gift giving is also a science

Jin Xi stays with Zhao Tingxuan for dinner, it's a common thing that makes Zhao Tingxuan a little embarrassed.

Zhao Tingxuan thought for a while before saying apologetically: "Uncle is going to visit an old friend today and ordered me to go with him..."

"It's fine to eat any day, you have to be busy!" Jin Xi smiled casually, secretly feeling a little rejoicing.The chef in the mansion broke his leg a few days ago, and the meals these days are all made up casually.She spoke quickly and thoughtlessly, Zhao Tingxuan really agreed, but she could only call Xi Mian from the outside, it was so dishonest!
Zhao Tingxuan bowed his hands and said goodbye, "I'll be the host to invite sister Xi some other day!"

He walked for a long time, Jin Xi suddenly felt something was wrong, Zhao Qingtai went out to patrol the city, and hadn't come back yet, what friend did Zhao Tingxuan accompany him to visit?

Jin Xi didn't believe that Zhao Tingxuan would lie to her, and thought of all kinds of excuses to excuse him, but the more he excused, the stronger the feeling of being cheated.After holding back for a while, I still invited Jinfeng over and gave some instructions.

Lowering her head to avoid Jin Feng's probing gaze, Jin Xi also knew that it was inappropriate for her to do so.The so-called deep responsibility of love, if she doesn't get a definite answer, this matter will become a thorn in her heart.

Jinfeng has always been quick to do things, and she came back in half a meal.Knowing that Zhao Tingxuan went back to the inn directly, he started reading after eating alone, without leaving the room at all.Jin Xi just let out a soft oh, and didn't continue, as if this result had been expected by her.

He really did it to avoid suspicion!

Things that could have been said clearly, had to be so roundabout and euphemistic, wouldn't it be tiring to live like this?
No wonder I've never seen Zhao Tingxuan laugh out loud, it's impolite to show emotion in such a noble family!

Seeing Jin Xi's look of loss, Jin Feng pursed her lips, wanted to persuade her but felt unable to say anything, and finally didn't say a word out of the room.

Jin Xi sighed slightly, she could guess what Jin Feng wanted to say, it was just that today is different from the past, and as her princess, it is even more impossible for her to make decisions about marriage.It is better to have no hope than to have no hope.

When you think about it, love arises.Sometimes, knowing that there is a fire pit ahead, I still can't help but jump into it.

"Why doesn't Sixth Sister eat vegetables?" Zhou Xiyao pushed the dish towards Jinxi again, looking suspiciously at Jinxi who kept lowering his head to cook.

"I don't like to eat ducks!" Jin Xi was wandering in the sky, and said by the way, only to find out that the duck she called was actually a roast goose, and she was extremely embarrassed, "This goose is too small, why is it like a duck? ?”

Zhou Xiyao took a deep look at her and didn't respond.Jin Xi also had nothing to say, and the siblings ate their meal in silence.

Jinxi finished rinsing her mouth and wanted to leave, but Zhou Xiyao called her back, "Do you know why Mr. Wuyou came to Anyang at this time?"

Why?Before Zhou Xiyao asked, Jin Xi didn't realize it was a question.After all, Zhao Tingxuan is going to be an official, and following Zhao Qingtai's experience is better than studying hard.

When Zhou Xiyao asked such a question, she felt strange.In half a month, it will be the beginning of winter. Worshiping ancestors on the winter solstice is a big event. As the eldest grandson of Zhao's family, why doesn't Zhao Tingxuan go back to worship ancestors?
Similarly, although Zhou Xiyao is not the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, he is also the legitimate grandson of the second family. Zhou Bohai is not in his hometown, so he should worship his ancestors on behalf of his father.What are you doing in Anyang at this time?
Jin Xi's questions were all on his face, and his expression was so surprised that Zhou Xiyao couldn't pretend not to see it, so he could only smile wryly, "I was kicked out!"

"Ah?" Jin Xi was taken aback, "You were expelled?"

"It's okay if the family is exterminated! At least it's quiet!" Zhou Xiyao slammed the table angrily, "I..." I just opened my mouth and felt that I couldn't tell Jinxi what happened, and I was immediately discouraged, "In short, it is It’s okay not to talk about nonsense things.”

He didn't want to talk about it, and Jin Xi didn't want to ask.Everyone has things that they can't face, whether it's escaping or selectively forgetting, it's easier to leave it behind than to face it all the time.

Zhou Xiyao had regained his composure, and looked up at Jinxi, "Zhao Tingxuan also came out of trouble!"

Now Jinxi is really not calm, what trouble can he cause with Zhao Tingxuan's temperament?With the status of the Zhao family, apart from treason, there is nothing wrong with it.To let the head of the house, Sun Da, live outside during the Chinese New Year?

Zhou Xiyao didn't give a shit about it, and said directly: "At the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, the Ninth Princess declared that she would not marry unless it was Zhao Tingxuan! The imperial concubine also wanted to ask the Holy Majesty to give her a marriage. Why did Zhao Ge use the excuse of not being able to establish a career as a family property to delay. However, the imperial concubine said that a man needs more experience if he wants to establish a career, and he intends to let Mr. Wuyou enter the palace to be the third prince's companion, and at the same time handle some affairs for the third prince. Elder Zhao Ge hasn't expressed his opinion yet. Ninth Princess I have been going to the pavilion every day to urge Mr. Wuyou to enter the palace. In desperation..."

In desperation, he followed Zhao Qingtai and hid in Anyang!Experience is false, avoiding the nine princesses is true!

Without Zhou Xiyao's complete words, Jin Xi already understood everything, and suddenly asked: "Among the people he accompanied, is there any eyeliner for Princess Nine?"

"What do you think?" Zhou Xiyao glanced at Jin Xi with the eyes of an idiot, and after a long silence, he said, "Young Master Wuyou is a dragon and a phoenix, and is admired by the world. But... Qi Dafei. My sister is a smart person, and there are some things that I don't need to say." If I say more, you should also understand. Hurry up and calm down before it gets too out of hand. You... can't compete with the Ninth Princess!"

The words are sincere and heartfelt, and they are words from the heart that have never been said before.But Jinxi's heart was soaring to the clouds at this moment, and he couldn't hear what he said clearly.

It turned out that Zhao Tingxuan made an excuse to leave that day, not to avoid suspicion and avoid her, but because he was afraid that the ninth princess would be unfavorable to her.Jin Xi smiled involuntarily, charming and vivid.It fell into Zhou Xiyao's eyes, but it made him heave a long sigh. Once the woman is demon-obstructed, even ten cows will not be able to pull her back.

Seeing what she meant, she refused to look back after hitting the south wall.But... how could he bear to watch her really hit her head and bleed!
Not for anything else, but for the sake of writing him a letter every month after she came to Anyang and sending some money to help him, he can't just sit idly by!In this world, only this silly younger sister cares about his daily life, food and clothing!Only she is the relative in his heart!
"It's my father's first New Year's Eve in office, and the New Year's gift for my hometown can't be sloppy. I have to send it over early, and if I miss it, people will laugh at me." Zhou Xiyao immediately thought of a A way to divert Jinxi's attention.

"Well, you really can't be sloppy!" Jin Xi deeply agrees, and she is also willing to do things that use Zhou Bohai's money to save face for herself. "In the past, when my uncle celebrated the New Year outside, what kind of gift did he give?"

"I don't understand this either!" Zhou Xiyao shook his head again and again. It was something that would cause trouble for Jin Xi, even if he knew it, he wouldn't say it.

I have to say that preparing for the New Year's ceremony is an extremely troublesome and cumbersome thing, far exceeding Jin Xi's expectations.There is no fixed number of old rules to follow for this kind of thing, and each family's situation is different. Even if you want to ask someone to inquire, you can't find the right person.Even if there are people in a similar situation, it is not easy to express their opinions on such absolute housework.

As the magistrate, Zhou Bohai's courtesy is too generous to make people suspicious, and his courtesy is too thin to make people laugh.Silk, satin, gold and silver ornaments are almost available in some capitals in Anyang, and the local specialties are live creatures such as fish and shrimp, which will turn into rotten fish and shrimp when transported to the capital.

Anyone who is negligent will have to be caught.You can't just seal a few bags of silver and send them back!

Jin Xi didn't sleep well for several nights of worry, but she didn't regret taking over this hot potato.When Zhao Tingxuan heard about her being in Zhang Luo Nian Li, his eyes were full of admiration, and he praised her for knowing the general, and he did not feel arrogant because he became the princess.

After he said this, Jin Xi made up his mind to handle this matter well.Just think of exercising your own housekeeping skills!

Zhou Xiyao felt that the security cases mentioned by Jinxi were inappropriate. He tapped his fingers on the side of the table and said, "Why don't you write to the third girl for advice? She hasn't passed the door yet, so she shouldn't be in the cloud. It's not realistic to travel thousands of miles back to Beijing!" The implication was that he wanted to invite Jinyue to Anyang for the New Year.

Jin Xi's eyes lit up, why didn't she think of this.Yunli's family originally lived in Tangde, less than a hundred miles away from Anyang.Because Yun Fengnian offended the prince of Anyang Hou, they took advantage of the opportunity of the Yun clan to repair the genealogy, and their family avoided Lu Ling's family.Later, Anyang Mansion was flooded, and they couldn't come back even if they wanted to.A few days ago, Jinyue just sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that Mrs. Yunli would return to Changde for the New Year, and that she would come to visit.

Mrs. Yunli brought Jinyue by her side to raise her, so things like giving New Year's gifts shouldn't bother her!Moreover, Zhou Boshan had also sent New Year's gifts to Beijing in his tenure a few years ago. It is always more reliable to ask Jinyue than to ask others!
"Third brother is still smart!" Jin Xi smiled and flattered Zhou Xiyao with free words.

Zhou Xiyao gave her a blank look, if you take your mind off Zhao Tingxuan, how can you make such a joke when you focus on common affairs!
Jinxi is a typical activist, so he prepared a generous gift for Jinfeng to accompany Ai Mama to visit Yunli in Changde, and took Jinyue to Anyang for the New Year.

Yunli's family stayed in Luling for more than half a year, and just returned to Changde to catch up with the New Year, Yunli's feet were so busy that they didn't touch the ground.I wanted to keep Jinyue by my side to help, but then I thought that next year Jinyue will be old, and after marrying Yun Fengnian, it will not be easy to meet her natal family again, so she nodded and agreed, and ordered Yun Fengyun to bring it with her The gift sent her to Anyang.

Jinyue bit her lip, and said to Yun Li, "I'm busy at home, I appreciate grandma's kindness. Although I can't help much, I can cook some soup to take care of you and..." Yun Fengnian's expression The word Sui Xi almost blurted out, and out of the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Yun Fengnian looking at her with a half-smile, Jin Yue's face was as bright as a red-hot coal, and he twisted his handkerchief and was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak.

Mrs. Yunli treated her better than her own grandmother. She said that she stayed here because she wanted to share some housework for Mr. Yunli. Yun Fengnian wouldn't misunderstand that she couldn't bear him, right?
