The eldest married as a merchant's wife

Chapter 44 The girl nodded (2)
The first young master Mei Xiaoyi sat quietly in the hall on the second floor and watched, the men of the Mei family were all born with thin lips and straight noses, his face was almost similar to the second young master Mei Xiaoting, but colder and darker.This is a lifeless existence, dense like a dead painting, no one knows if he likes it or not.

Mrs. Mei's second wife, Ye Shi, disdained her nephew in her heart, but seeing the young master's eyes fixed on Xiuhe's back in the shadows, after thinking for a while, she wiped her handkerchief and walked to the railing on the second floor: "Ahe , you come~"

The voice was soft, with a smile at the end.

Xiuhe paused suddenly, stopped and looked back.

"I'm calling you, come here~" Mrs. Ye smiled, but just stood in front of the railing and looked down at her without saying a word.

This kind of smiling face Xiuhe was scared once she saw it—the thunderbolt and despair submerged under the water plants were really uncomfortable—Xiuhe clenched her handkerchief and tried her best to show a good-looking smile: " Second Madam, I have always kept your words in my heart, and I already know what to do... I have not met the Second Young Master recently, nor have I inquired about him, so you don't have to worry about it in the future."

Her words were honest, weak and sincere.Xiuhe didn't want to continue to burden Ye Shi's guard.

"What are you talking about? What did you say? What did I say?... This kid, he rushed out on a rainy day and made his body sick. Come with me." Ye came up from the side stairs with her buttocks swaying Go down, and call Xiuhe to stop with a handkerchief.

She wants to keep Xiuhe for dinner, with a pleasant smile on her face.

Xiuhe didn't dare to eat Ye's food rashly, so she quickly blessed her and declined politely: "My father is still waiting for me to go back. Xiuhe is a mere female worker, and she dare not step up to the boss's table."

Ye Shi glanced at Xiuhe's soft white wrist, there was no jade bracelet on her wrist at the moment, only a copper-brown half-old wooden bracelet, carved with patterns of flower vines.The girl's fingertips were twiddling unconsciously in her palm, her nails were full of powder.

Hands are white, it looks good on any layer.

Mrs. Ye thought so in her heart, but there was a trace of frivolity in her eyes, and she suddenly blamed herself: "You hate me in your heart because of the words I tested you last time? Silly girl, I'm just a son like Xiaoting If you want to marry a daughter-in-law, you don't have to think carefully about it. It's just to test your heart, do you really remember it? Then no matter what, you have to stay for this meal, and it will be considered as an apology from the elders to your younger generation. "

Regardless of whether Xiuhe wanted it or not, he took her by the hand and went to the dining hall.

Sitting on a big mahogany round table were Mrs. Mei, Mrs. Mei and Mrs. Ye. The younger ones were only the young master Mei Xiaoyi and Xiuhe herself.Sure enough, the Mei family has strict rules. When the man is not at home, the children born in the concubine's room can only eat a small table in their aunt's room.

There are eight dishes and four soups on the big table. The spring bamboo shoots are green and green, and the bracken is also mixed with color, fragrance and taste.April in the south is the time to eat fresh.

Xiuhe picked up a chopstick of kidney beans, but buried her head in sipping the rice.Old Madam Mei looked at Xiuhe's pink face under her fine eyelashes, and seeing that she was only holding the two nearest dishes, she secretly gave Ye Shi a look.

Mrs. Ye suddenly laughed, and personally clipped a stewed elbow for Xiuhe: "We will be a family from now on, but I don't want to be so restrained. Eat more meat, you look thin, the girl's family is still plump good."

"Mrs. Xie, I'll do it myself." Xiuhe took a small bite.

Old Mrs. Mei and Mrs. Mei looked at each other and smiled: "Look, the teeth are good, and the teeth marks that have been bitten off have no gaps. This girl has been clean since she was a child. I didn't pay attention to it before, and she is so outstanding in a blink of an eye."

The young master kept his head down while eating, and when he heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Xiuhe: "She doesn't like braised meat, so don't put this in for her."
