Chapter 72 The Rare Leisure

On the stairs, after Gu Xiaoru waited for the servants to carry Ah Shuang away, she said angrily to Xia Shi, "Can you calm down? I can't stop until I want to turn the Xi family upside down?"

"Mother-in-law, I don't know what's going on at all. When I regained my senses, Ah Shuang has already fallen." Xia Shi bit her lip and replied neither humble nor overbearing, "Besides, as the eldest mistress of the Xi family, it is difficult for me Would you make things difficult for a servant? If you really made things difficult for her, why did you plead for her in front of you and your father-in-law again and again?"

What Xia Shi said was reasonable, and Gu Xiaoru couldn't refute it for a while, she took a deep look at Xia Shi, and then asked Zeng Xiumin who was not far behind Xia Shi, "Xiu Min, tell me about this. "

"Mom, Ah Shuang seems to be..." Before Zeng Xiumin finished speaking, Xi Mingzhen's slightly angry voice came, "What happened again? Do you want people to be quiet in this house?"

"Ah Shuang fell from the corridor, Xia Shi and Xiu Min were both present." Gu Xiaoru seemed a little afraid that Xi Mingzhen would lose his temper again, she replied cautiously.

"Hmph, isn't it just a servant, and I sent some money away." Xi Mingzhen snorted coldly, and his tone was a little displeased, "Could it be that this young mistress really knows how to push a servant?" After finishing speaking, he turned and left, Then he shouted to a servant not far downstairs, "Hurry up and help the eldest young mistress."

Gu Xiaoru's angry face was a bit like a pig's liver, and she glared at Xia Shi fiercely before she turned around and left behind Xi Mingzhen.

Xia Shi's eyes were still faint, and he went downstairs with the help of a servant.

Zeng Xiumin was a little thankful that she didn't say what she said just now, otherwise she would have been ignored in Xi Mingzhen's eyes.

Although Xia Shi escaped this time, it doesn't matter!
At the dining table, the whole family was eating breakfast, as if what just happened was just a small episode.

After Xia Shi finished a bowl of porridge and a piece of siu mai, he put down his chopsticks, and greeted Xi Mingzhen and Gu Xiaoru, "Elder-in-law, mother-in-law, I'm done eating, I'm going to school first, eat slowly."

"Sister-in-law, I'll be with you." Xi Jinyou said inarticulately, and quickly swallowed the last mouthful of Siu Mai, put down her chopsticks, and was about to get up.

"What's the rush? I'm choking you. You can go to class alone." Gu Xiaoru said cautiously.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xi Jinyan's lukewarm voice sounded, "Jin You, you go to school today to ask your sister-in-law for leave."

Xia Shi frowned slightly, and subconsciously wanted to ask Xi Jinyan if she could stop being so self-assertive, but when she saw the cold eyes coming from Xi Jinnian's direction towards her, she bit her lip and said nothing.

Xi Mingzhen also said at this time, "Well, since I injured my foot when I was young, let's rest at home for a few more days."

"Okay, father-in-law." Xia Shi responded obediently, and then apologized to Xi Jinyou, "I'm really sorry, little sister."

"It's okay, sister-in-law, your foot is injured, you should rest at home, I will go to school to ask you for leave." Xi Jinyou smiled nonchalantly, and left the table.

Xia Shi replied behind her, "I'll just call the school myself, and I don't need to bother you."

After Xi Mingzhen and Xi Jinnian had breakfast, they both went to work. Gu Xiaoru took Zeng Xiumin to go shopping with rich wives, Xi Jinmo also went to school, and Xi Jinyan didn't know where.

The Xi family fell silent in an instant, only a few servants were cleaning, and some servants, because of the Ching Ming Festival, took a few days off to pay homage to the grave at home.

Xia Shi felt bored for a while, because she couldn't go anywhere because of her foot injury. Leaning on crutches, she walked out of the door of Xi's house, and came to the side of the flowers that Xi Jinyan didn't let her come at that time, and sat down on a cushion with a piece of waste newspaper .

The flowers at this time are still blooming very vigorously, as if they were not affected by the sudden heavy rain that day, the sun is shining golden on the petals, a few butterflies fly by from time to time, and the air is filled with the sweet fragrance of flowers .

In fact, the scenery looks extremely beautiful. If it wasn't because he wanted revenge, Xia Shi really wanted to live on so simply.

"Young Mistress, I just caught a man who was sneaking outside the yard." The servant's voice suddenly rang in Xia Shi's ears, interrupting her hard-won leisure.
