Crowned with Pearls

Chapter 457: fifty-six

   Chapter 457 Chapter 56 · Provocation

  The world has been at peace for many years. Before, there was already one who ascended to the throne through an iron and **** wrist. What is needed now is no longer a **** repression, but a benevolent master.

   Xiao Heng was brought up by the Song family before this. He was beaten in the military camp since he was a child, and became a murderer that everyone feared. After returning to Beijing, he became a Jinyiwei.

  What is Jinyiwei?

   Although under the leadership of Xiao Heng, his reputation is much better than before, but Qingliu, a civil official, still looks down on Jin Yiwei.

   Xiao Heng wanted to climb up, but it wasn't that simple.

  Xu Chong saw that his father was calm, and he was relieved, but he was still a little hesitant: "But you agreed."

   "Don't worry." Xu Shun's tone was as usual, still calm: "Wait a minute."

   With his attitude, Xu Chong had no choice but to say no more and turned his head back to his room.

   His wife, Mrs. Qi, was doing needlework when she heard the movement and turned her head to find that he was coming back, so she hurriedly got up to greet him: "Why are you back at this time?"

   "With so many things going on recently, I still feel comfortable staying at home." Xu Chong replied and asked her, "What are you doing?"

Speaking of this, Qi's gentle face was a little helpless: "It's not your precious daughter, I went out to be a guest, and when I came back, I asked me to sew a cloak with tangled branches and peony patterns for her, and now I'm rushing her. , she was fine, and ran out again."

   Speaking of his daughter Xu Huixian, Xu Chong's face had a little smile: "This girl loves beauty the most, where have you been today?"

"It's going to Xie's house." Qi's attitude was natural, and she took the cloak and started embroidering again: "Old Mrs. Xie came to Beijing, and when she came, several little girls also came, you know, Xian'er This girl is crazy, how can she be unhappy?"

  The Xu family and the Xie family are relatively close. When Xu Chong was working in Chen Liu, he was taken care of by the Xie family a lot, so the children of the two families are also familiar with each other, especially with the Xie family.

   Speaking of this, Xu Chong remembered one thing: "Didn't it say that the marriage between the Xie family and the Wang family resigned? How is it now?"

Qi's expression remained unchanged and shook his head: "I don't know, but I heard that she was going out with a few girls from the Xie family. She is a playful and playful person, but don't you know about our family? It's always inconvenient. She was rarely let out, but now she has come back with the Xie family, so let her relax for a while, a girl's family, married later, how can she be as happy as she is at home? "

Xu Chong couldn't help laughing when he said something: "It's like I'm the unreasonable and strict father. She is willing to go out. As long as she doesn't cause trouble, I'm happy. Besides, it's hard for our girl to be with someone else's family. Like being locked at home and cringing all day long? When you have time, take her out for a walk, don't stay at home all day."

   Qi's eyebrows and eyes are all gentle and small: "What am I going? It won't be too late to move around when my aunt comes back."

  Yes, Xu Chong's eyes lit up, and he was genuinely happy: "I forgot, my aunt is coming back soon, and when her old man comes back, she must be well prepared, Tong's family."

   Mr. Qi shook his head and said softly: "Uncle guards the border, how can he enter Beijing without an edict? When it's just my aunt who brings the children back."

   Calculate, Qi Yunxi's grandchildren should also talk about marriage.

   Xu Chong nodded, not forgetting to tell his wife: "Let my aunt live in our house, and the province will clean up the house. If you really refuse, you can clean up the house in advance, and don't ask aunt to come back and be in a hurry."

   Mr. Qi smiled and agreed, lowered his head and bit off the thread in his hand, and put the sewn pink cloak in the basket: "I don't know if Xian'er is having fun or not?"

   Xu Huixian was not happy. She managed to go out and play with the sisters of the Xie family. It was like a fish in the water, but before she could be happy for a long time, she met someone who was not very happy.

   Several girls from the Xie family followed her gaze and frowned in unison, especially Xie Mujun's compatriot sister, who changed his face immediately and couldn't help but snorted angrily: "Bad luck!"

Xu Huixian is playing with a sweet butterfly hairpin in his hand. This hairpin is the master craftsman of this shop. It is very beautifully made. The eyes of the butterfly on the top are made of two precious stones. His golden wings trembled slightly, as if they were about to flutter at any moment.

   She handed over the butterfly hairpin to the waiting shopkeeper, raised her eyebrows and said, "Wrap it up, go to the Xu residence to ask for money."

The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed with a smile, and graciously put away the hairpin for her. Xu Huixian and a few girls from the Xie family went downstairs and bumped into Wang Banyan and another girl at the corner. .

"I forgot to read the huang calendar when I went out, and I met someone like this who made an accident every time I got engaged!" Xu Huixian didn't like Wang Banrong, but for no other reason. After both of them were high-ranking officials in the civil service, they both had the arrogance of the literati. They don't like each other, especially although Xu Huixian's life experience is higher than Wang Banyan Rong's, but his appearance is not as good as Wang Banyan Rong's, and Wang Banyan Rong's marriage has been settled well before, even if the marriage of Yongding Uncle's Mansion turns yellow, who knows what he will be able to do? I met a famous family like the Xie family.

  Xu Huixian looked at her even more annoying, especially since their family had a good relationship with the Xie family, and she and Xie Mujun were childhood sweethearts. Seeing that Xie Mujun was humiliated and suppressed by the Wang family, and now she was in a downturn, she also wanted to share the enemy with the Xie family.

   Wang Banyan's face darkened, and she raised her eyes to look at her coldly: "Isn't it true, I forgot to read the almanac when I went out, and I ran into people like this who didn't cultivate morality when I went out."

   No one will be happy to be stabbed in the sore spot. If it wasn't for upbringing, Wang Banrong would have already started.

Xie Mujun's sister suddenly laughed: "Xian'er has a straighter temperament, although she is telling the truth, she is not very pleasant, but her heart is good, she is worried about you, sister, can you? Don't be mad at her."

Wang Banyan felt even more absurd, but before she could react, her hand was pulled, Su Yao grabbed her, turned towards Xu Huixian and the others without changing her face, and said calmly, "Sisters have come to know the general situation, of course. I don't care, but Miss Xu's mouth is not very clean, and her brain must not be very good. Otherwise, if you really care about being bad luck, you should not only go out to read the almanac? You should also look at who is going out with Xu. The family has a clean family and several generations of scholars, since they value reputation so much, they should cherish feathers even more, why go out with the sister of a notorious libertine?"

   Xu Huixian was furious.
