Chapter 47: Everyone Miss Xiuxia.
"Yes, the two of them are official slaves bought by the Wei family from abroad, and they can't be found further ahead. Aunt Wei looked at her a little dazed, and muttered, "After all these years, it is also possible..."
She couldn't say it herself.
The Wei family was a large family that had been entrenched in Huaiyuan for hundreds of years, and all the previous envoys of the Xia family had to coax them to gain a foothold in the northwest.
Most of the slaves of large families are innocent children, and even if they buy them, they can only buy girls from poor families nearby. Why are the dowry maids of the eldest lady two people of unknown origin?
"The girl is not in good health, don't work too hard, I will arrange for someone to deal with this matter." Xia Feng said a word and turned to leave.
Although Xia Feng is only nineteen this year, Madame Guogong married Xia Guogong twenty-five years ago. Twenty-five years ago, Naiman had not completely defeated all the grassland departments, and the unification of the northern and southern grasslands could not be seen in its embryonic form. So long ago, he had actually reached into the Xia Guo Mansion.
Due to Xia Guogong's unusual tumultuous operations over the years, Xia Feng really didn't have much affection for his grandfather's family, and the only remaining blood relationship was thinner than window paper. Especially after her iron-faced selflessness prompted her eldest cousin to be killed, the crumbling window paper was completely broken.
Her temperament is well known, she has not visited the Wei family for many years, and when she comes to the door, she absolutely knows that she is playing the field. In order to prevent the grass from startling the snakes, it is still necessary to use Aunt Wei's visit to relatives as a cover-up.
The old Zhao family and the Xia Cai family followed the Duchess of Guo into the mansion for more than 20 years, and married the servants of the Xia Mansion, and they were also old people with heads and faces in the mansion. Xia Feng was afraid of scaring the snake, so it was difficult to deal with it rashly, so he only ordered Qian Shan to keep a close eye on the two and their families.
After she finished dealing with the trivial matters, she probed the defense of the house. After a busy afternoon, thinking that Xiao Mingchen should also send his father, he went straight to his room and waited.
Unexpectedly, the servant reported that His Royal Highness King Ning had not returned for a whole afternoon.
"Forget it, you all go out, prepare the meal first." I'm waiting for him here. Xia Feng waved his hand to send all the people out, and the long sword was unsheathed, casually gesturing through the faint light of the evening.
Until the middle of the moon, no one came, and the sword in her hand was as fast as a floating light, shining with a cold light under the moon.
When Xiao Mingchen stepped on the moonlight, he came back with a tired body.
Playing chess with a rotten chess basket is really laborious and brain-consuming, and the addicted rotten chess basket is even more unbearable. Xia Yi is really a veteran in this regard, not only bad but also very self-righteous.
He can't show too good a chess skill, nor can he play too badly. Carefully control every move in the chess game, so that Xia Guogong will not lose too quickly and win easily. Create the illusion that the skills of the two are comparable.
Xia Guogong played to Xing's head, not knowing hunger. Poor Xiao Mingchen except for a few glasses of wine at the beginning, almost did not enter the water and rice in one afternoon and evening.
Stepping on cotton like a foot approaching the weeping flower door, Xiao Mingchen faintly heard the sound, his face was happy, and he quickened his pace and entered the courtyard.
The long hair of the people in the court stood up, their eyebrows were flirting, their figures were strong, and their swords were like rainbows.
Xia Feng noticed someone, turned around and smiled at him, the long sword hooked and picked, several bamboo leaves lightly climbed the sword body, swirled in the air, lined up, and went straight to Xiao Mingchen.
The dark green bamboo leaves are not fast, and they are not so much dark as butterflies. Xiao Mingchen stretched out his slender fingers and put them all into his palm: "Why are you so interested?" "
Wait for you all night," Xia Feng's long sword was sheathed, and he felt cold when he grabbed his fingers, and his face showed dissatisfaction, "What's going on with my father, what is there to talk about?"
"It's okay, it's rare that the old man is interested." Xiao Mingchen quietly rolled a few bamboo leaves into his sleeve and followed her into the room, "After playing chess for so long, I am actually a little hungry." "
I know that you definitely haven't eaten," Xia Feng was helpless, "Let them prepare in the morning, don't follow my father so much next time, he is idle and bored every day, you are not."
"You are a junior at home, you are usually busy with affairs, and you rarely go home. Your father is inevitably lonely in the house alone, and it is not easy to meet someone who can talk to him, and it is common for people to talk more.
Xiao Mingchen took the tray from the chef's hand: "You haven't eaten either, let's eat some together?"
"Hmm. Xia Feng replied casually, obviously disagreeing with his words, "Why is there no one, isn't the Yingying Yanyan full of yards human?"
"This and that can be the same. Xiao Mingchen shook his head indulgently and served her porridge, "It's late at night, how much to eat, it is estimated that it will not be easy for you to go to Wei Mansion tomorrow, rest early."
Xia Feng saw that he was tired and tired, and it was not good to pester people anymore, so after eating in good manners, they each rested.
Aunt Wei was the daughter-in-law of the family, and she was not welcomed before she got married, and she was stained with the light of her sister to marry into the Guogong Mansion as a side room. Therefore, she and several brothers and old ladies of the Wei family are just feelings on the face.
Although she is in charge of Zhongfang in the Guogong Mansion, she is notoriously unloved by Xia Guogong. In addition, he is not good at human relations, does not like to be lively, and others can't start if they want to, so that wherever he goes, the surroundings are cold and deserted.
Xia Feng changed into a beautiful skirt and gauze for everyone, his hair was combed into a double flat bun, and he followed behind Mrs. Wei in a polite manner.
She doesn't often go back to Huaiyuan, and rarely wears women's clothes, and at first glance, such a dress, unrelated people see only who is a family, it is difficult to associate this delicate beauty with Xia Dashuai, who can cure children's night crying.
"Miss, let's go to the old lady first. Aunt Wei quietly looked around and lowered her voice, "There are many old people in the old lady's house, you look too much like the eldest sister, you may be recognized, bring the face towel." "Good
. Xia Feng helped her vainly, not squinting. The carved beams and paintings of the Wei Mansion reveal the elegance of a century-old family everywhere. The specifications of this mansion are a little higher than the Duke of Xia Guo's Mansion, and the rules and etiquette inside are much better than those of the palace.
She lost her mother at a young age but did not get close to the foreign family, in large part because she could not stand the rules of the Wei family.
When I was young, I was ignorant and only thought that my grandfather's family was a reader, so there were many etiquette constraints. Now I know that under this Sensen mansion, it is conscience that is submerged and human nature is restrained.
Aunt Wei is not the old lady's biological daughter, and the two meet in private more like a public courtesy.
The old lady is old, but she is not kind with her age, and she can even see a little harsh and critical on her face. She lay on the soft sofa in the middle and slowly lifted her eyelids: "It's you, you usually don't see moving, today is not a year, how come you have time to come over?"
Aunt
Wei curtsyed: "My daughter got an old ginseng, and I thought that I would not see my mother for many days, so I specially sent it to you."
"Hmm. The old lady replied indistinctly from her throat, that is, there was no joy and no joy. Her old cloudy eyes looked behind Aunt Wei: "Which girl is this?" It looks like a sign, come up and let me take a look. Aunt
Wei's face could not hide the panic, Yu Guang looked to the side, and was not knowing how to refuse, only to see Xia Feng simply take off the veil and step forward a few steps. Respectfully knelt in front of the old lady and kowtowed: "Old ancestor, the younger generation is the daughter of the Xia family, your granddaughter." "
Feng, Feng'er..." Old Lady Wei trembled and straightened her bloated body, trying to widen her eyes, only to see that her beautiful eyebrows resembled a dead daughter, and the woman in front of her was thin and agile, which was very different from the fierce rumors outside.
She twitched violently, raised her finger like touching Xia Feng's cheek, but did not dare to move forward.
"Ancestor, I am A Feng, I haven't seen me for years, do you remember me? Xia Feng held her withered and old hand and said slowly, "Is the uncle at home?" I haven't seen him for a long time。 The
old lady seemed to be afraid of her, and seemed to have been worried about her for a long time, and the two incompatible emotions intersected, and she didn't say anything for half a ring.
The old lady waiting next to her hurriedly stepped forward to pat her on the back and feed the medicine. After some tossing, Old Lady Wei breathed a sigh of relief. She weakly pushed the grandmother who was helping, and ordered: "Go, go to the front and call the old man over."
Xia Feng stood up and bent his knees slightly: "Old ancestor, let grandma only tell my uncle that Ah Feng came to ask him for peace, I came to see you." "
She was dressed in an aqua blue skirt, deliberately restraining her temper, very much like everyone's show.
"Do as Kaede says. Old Lady Wei added busily. After she said that, she carefully pulled Xia Feng's hands, her dignified and stern face showed affection, and she stretched out her hand and gestured in front of her: "Feng'er, the last time I saw you, it was so, so tall, and in a blink of an eye, she grew into a big girl." Why don't you come to see my old woman, do you think your grandmother is old?
"In the past few years, the online war has been tight, and Feng'er can't leave. No, I'll come to you as soon as I have leisure. Xia Feng replied politely and courteously, gently rubbing the ground and kneeling on the footsteps: "My mother is watching from the sky, how dare Feng'er not fulfill her filial piety."
"Good boy, hurry up. The old lady pulled her to sit on the edge of the soft bed, and continued to talk with a kind eyebrow.
The grandchildren who enjoy the joy of heaven are not true love for the elderly, and the young are not true filial piety. The two face to face on the street and may not recognize each other, but at this moment they seem to be relatives and grandchildren who have been familiar with each other for many years.
Finally hearing the sound of the people outside opening the curtain, Xia Feng secretly sighed in relief, got up and saluted the old lady, and stood aside in a polite manner.
The person who came was the current owner of the Wei family and Xia Feng's uncle, Wei Yu.
His face was ugly, he finished the salute stiffly, turned to look at the woman in the aqua blue dress on the side, and the corners of his lips squirmed for half a ring, and he did not dare to call out his niece's maiden name according to the old lady's words.
As soon as Xia Feng saw him, his face was no longer kind and approachable, and he looked at the stiff and helpless Wei family master in front of him with a smile, and said coldly: "It's really not easy to see your uncle, I don't know if it's a call to you, is it on call?" When
Wei Yu heard this, his intuition exploded from his neck to the soles of his feet, his legs and feet were soft, and he plopped down on his knees, trembling: "Great handsome." "
