Twin Brocade

Chapter 280 Good Words
Qiao Tongxuan thought for a while, then nodded her head in response.

These days, she is trapped in her own world and cannot extricate herself, and she didn't go to school, which must have worried many people.

The two had just finished talking when there were a few knocks on the door, and someone called out, "Sister Xuan, are you in?" The siblings looked at each other, Qiao Shijie got up and opened the door, and said politely, "See you!" Aunt Guo."

"Brother Jie is here too." Lu Shiman stepped into the door, followed by a maid carrying a black lacquered tray. They are all easy to digest and nourish the stomach.

She personally brought the millet porridge in front of Qiao Tongxuan, and said softly, "Miss Xuan, don't cry anymore, and eat some porridge with a few dim sum."

A look of disgust flashed across Qiao Tongxuan's eyebrows, she glanced at Qiao Shijie, and said, "Thank you for your concern, Auntie, but I don't have an appetite right now, I'll eat later."

It was not the first time that Lu Shiman was rejected by her, and she was not annoyed when she saw it, and said: "Then I will go first, you can eat while it is hot. Let it cool down and hurt your stomach carefully."

Qiao Shijie persuaded: "Auntie's kindness, my sister will use some. If you are like this, I am also worried." With his persuasion, Qiao Tongxuan slowly picked up the spoon and started eating.

Qiao Tongxuan had already figured it out just now, since she wanted to live safely in Qiao's back house, she had to use heartlessness as her cover.The attitude towards Lu Shiman also needs to be gradually improved.

It's just that you can't change everything all at once, because it will arouse suspicion for no reason, so you have to take it slowly.

The cooperation of the two brothers and sisters will not make people suspicious.Seeing that Qiao Tongxuan accepted her porridge, Lu Shiman also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Once the first three months of filial piety are over, she will marry Qiao Wenxin to fill in the house.Otherwise, according to the etiquette, you have to wait until three years later.She couldn't wait for her youth, and neither could the Lu family.

Three years is too long, who knows what will happen?
Therefore, to her, the attitude of her cousin's two sons and daughters is very important.

With her identity, she must have said that her cousin was worried about her children before she died, so she entrusted them to her.If the siblings do not approve of her, then this rhetoric will only be a joke.

Qiao Shijie's study tour is coming soon, so she doesn't have to worry about it anymore.But Qiao Tongxuan was in the back house, and she didn't get along well with her. Others would only say that she treated her stepdaughter harshly.Before she had no flesh and blood of her own, she could not afford such a reputation.

The affairs of the Qiao family are complicated.But with the death of Mrs. Qiao, many things came to an end.All the contradictions, interests, and conspiracies are slowly hidden, and maybe they will never see the light of day again.

As for Fang's family, which has been having a lot of happy events recently, there are also undercurrents surging between the houses.

Si Jiang's daughter-in-law was carrying a sewing basket in her hand. She had just bought some seasonal silk threads and returned home, and was walking to the sewing room.When the seasons change, the sewing room is the busiest.

The servants of the whole family will send out a new set of clothes every season.Especially the little girls and servants in the mansion grow taller every year, and they have to be re-measured before they can make clothes.

Si Lansheng was careful, and the clothes of these servants were not fixed every year.Although the fabrics used are always the same back and forth, there are always some fashionable patterns in Beijing in terms of styles.

Although this is just a trivial matter, the servants of the Fang family always have to be more energetic when going out, and it seems that they are slightly different from other servants.

The clothes of the servants are all made by the sewing room.Si Jiang's daughter-in-law bought some samples of silk thread and went back, and asked the embroiderers to pick out the colors and calculate the expected quantity, so she could call back to Si Lansheng, took the right cards and went to pay for silver, batches buy.

Up and down in this mansion are full of such trivial matters.

As she was walking, a woman with hair full of jewels suddenly appeared in front of her, she stopped her way with a smile, and said, "Si Jiang's family, are you busy?"

Si Jiang's daughter-in-law paused, and hurriedly saluted, "My servant has seen the second wife."

The person who came was Fang Shufeng's wife, Baishi, she looked at her with a smile on her face, and said: "The eldest wife has used you a lot, and you are also capable. I have a matter here, I just want to ask you for a favor."

"Second wife, please don't say that. The maidservant is just a servant. How can I be worthy of your invitation from the second wife. Not to mention, how can I help you." Si Jiang's daughter-in-law repeatedly declined.

She has been in the Fang Mansion for many years, how can she not know what kind of temperament the Bai family has?That is the master who does not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. No matter what she has to do, it is the best policy to stay far away.

"Oh, don't be so alien. Who doesn't know that you are the first-class proud person in front of the eldest wife?" Bai's enthusiasm was extremely high, and she signaled the maid behind her to take Si Jiang's wife's arm, and said: "Just go to my place Sit down and rest your feet."

She is the master, and when it comes to this point, Si Jiang's daughter-in-law has no choice but to obey.

When they arrived at Bai's courtyard, Si Jiang's daughter-in-law said: "My maidservant is really worried to be favored by the second wife. If you have any orders, just tell me, and my maidservant will return to the eldest lady for you."

"You're so out of touch!" Bai Shi pressed her on the chair and greeted her warmly: "Come on, come on, drink some tea to moisten your throat, and eat something."

Si Jiang's daughter-in-law was unmoved, and said: "If the second wife is fine, the servant girl has to rush to the sewing room."

"Oh, you really are!" Bai raised his handkerchief, approached her and asked, "Let me ask you, which girl does the eldest lady plan to send to the palace for the election?"

Si Jiang's daughter-in-law's heart skipped a beat, and she said, "Second Wife is right to ask this question. This is all the master's business, and the servant girl is a servant, how would she know?"

She did not hear Si Lansheng mention it.But even if he heard it, he wouldn't tell Bai Shi.Who is her master, she knows very well.

Mrs. Bai took off a half-weight red gold bracelet from her wrist, stuffed it into Si Jiang's wife's hand, and said, "I won't make things difficult for you. If the eldest wife asks, you can just say a few words of kindness for my second girl." .”

"Theoretically, if you rank down by age, you should also be in our family, Jinju."

"How did this happen?" Si Jiang's daughter-in-law hurriedly stuffed the bracelet back, and said, "How can a servant like me talk too much about such a big matter. Second wife, rest assured, I think the eldest wife knows about this matter."

Bai put the bracelet back into her arms, and said with a smile: "You can accept it with peace of mind! If the eldest lady asks, you can honestly say yes. This is not something shady, and I also intend to seek a favor for Jin Ju. future."

Who in the entire family doesn't know that the Bai family has always treated Fang Ziyi and Fang Jinju harshly on the concubine brothers and sisters?She suddenly said that she wanted to do Fang Jinju's best, which made people think a little more.

But since she said that, Si Jiang's daughter-in-law simply agreed.Bai Shi sent her out of the door with a smile, with a loving mother on her face.

There is also Ponzi who has the same thoughts as her.
