The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 30

[Chapter 30 New Year’s Eve (1)]

It snowed, and the little white and flawless snowflakes fell from the sky one after another, like beautiful silver butterflies dancing gracefully. The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and the snowflakes are flying all over the sky, like smoke but not smoke, like fog but not fog, as if the whole world is shrouded in the vast snow.

In the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, the earth dragon has already been burned in the house. Oak Xi sat in the warm room and watched the chess manuals. Studying the chess manuals had now become Oak Xi’s best hobby, surpassing embroidery.

Mo Ju walked in hurriedly. She didn’t dare to approach Yuxi because of the cold air on her body. She said at the door, “Girl, Mo Tao fell and can’t get up now.” Tao accidentally slipped while carrying the food box.

Yu Xi hurriedly said, “Hurry up and ask for a doctor.” Mo Tao was the least aggressive of Yu Xi’s four maids. But that doesn’t mean Oak Xi doesn’t take care of Mo Tao, on the contrary, Oak Xi still values Mo Tao very much.

Mo Ju nodded and replied, “Girl, we need to wait a little longer for breakfast.” Mo Tao threw all Yuxi’s breakfast on the ground, and the big kitchen had to get another one. But it must be slower than usual to get an extra breakfast in the big kitchen.

Oak-hee calculated the time, and she would definitely be late when the big kitchen had breakfast ready. Oak-hee said, “No need to do it any more, just bring what you have in the kitchen.” If you have a small kitchen, you don’t need to be so troublesome. But this can only be thought about. Only the old lady and the aunt have a small kitchen in the mansion, and nothing else.

A quarter of an hour later, breakfast arrived. The breakfast this time was very simple, only steamed buns and a bowl of millet porridge.

Yuxi didn’t choose either, and after eating, she was ready to go to Magnolia Garden.

When she was going out, Mother Shen wanted to add a coat to Yuxi, but Yuxi stopped her: “I’m wearing a leather jacket, so it’s not cold.” similar.

Mother Shin couldn’t beat Oak Hee, so she had to give up.

At the entrance of Magnolia Garden, Yuxi saw Yuchen. Because it was extremely cold these two days, Yuchen didn’t come to learn the piano early in the morning.

Yuchen was wearing a silver-white satin mink fur cloak, and his head was covered by the cap of the cloak. After entering the class, Yuchen took off the cloak, revealing the water-red knee-length ermine hair cut silk jacket inside.

Yuxi glanced at the cloak, but his eyes fell on the ice-seeded jade gourd bracelet on Yuchen’s wrist. Yuchen usually wears not many jewelry, but as long as she wears it, it must be fine, and it is basically not the same every time she wears it. Just by looking at the jewelry that Yuchen wears every time, Yuxi can give her a lot of knowledge.

Ok-hee turned her head and looked at Shi Shu’s defensive eyes. Being guarded by thieves is really uncomfortable. Yuxi had ignored this feeling before, but today she felt a tinge of anger in her heart, and she smiled deliberately and said to Chao Ye, “Third sister, your bracelet is so beautiful, can you show it to me?”

The gourd means “Fu Lu”. This gourd bracelet is made of ice-type old anti-jade. The six yang green emerald gourds are bright in color, crystal clear and full of vitality.

Yuxi couldn’t help but admire after seeing it, “It’s so beautiful.”

Seeing this, Shi Shu hurriedly said: “This bracelet was given to my girl by the old lady a few days ago.” Everyone present knew what the meaning of the words meant.

When Mo Ju heard this, her eyes burst into flames with anger.

There are some words that everyone knows well, but it would be embarrassing to say them. But this time, Shi Shu really angered Oak Hee. Yuxi looked at the waiter and said with a half-smiling smile, “Those who didn’t know what you said thought I was trying to get the third sister’s bracelet.”

Shi Shu didn’t expect Oak Xi to speak so straightforwardly, and his face instantly stiffened. No matter how she is loved by the old lady and the girl, she is also a servant girl, how can she be compared with the four girls.

Yuchen didn’t know why Yuxi suddenly attacked, and said with a smile: “It’s not a valuable thing. If the fourth sister likes it, I’ll give it to you.”

After hearing this, Oak Xi felt a stumbling block in her heart, and she felt that valuable things were like weeds on the roadside in the eyes of others, which was really uncomfortable. Yu Xi smiled and said, “No need, there are so many beautiful things in the world, I can’t possibly take them for myself.” After saying this, he handed the bracelet to Yu Chen and lowered his head to sort it out. own book.

Returning to the Rose Garden after class, Mother Shen said with a big smile, “Girl, the New Year’s gift from the master has arrived.” Today is the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Oak-hee sighed and said nothing. Although Han Jingyan was in a foreign post in her previous life, it didn’t prevent her from confiding in Han Jingyan. Even when she was wronged before, she thought that it would be better if her father was in the mansion, so that no one could bully her. But I didn’t expect that Han Jingyan would treat her as nothing after returning to Beijing, and he would never be bullied by the Wu clan. That’s all. Knowing that the Jiang family is a fire pit, he has to push her into the fire pit. Is this his biological father? Those who didn’t know it thought it was her enemy. Therefore, she has no father-daughter affection for Han Jingyan’s cold-blooded and ruthless biological father.

Mother Shen looked at Yuxi’s calm and indifferent expression, her heart stunned, and she groaned. Seeing the girl’s expression, she didn’t care about the master’s neglect at all. “Girl, the master gave a lot of things this time.”

Oak Xi thought for a moment and asked, “If I remember correctly, Dad has been in Hebei for five years, and he will be six years old next year. Will Dad come back next year?”

Shen’s mother said with a smile: “I heard that the master’s political achievements are all excellent, and it is very likely that he will raise it up next year.” If he wants to raise it up, he will definitely not come back.

Oak-hee was silent for a while, and said, “Mother Shen, what kind of person is my stepmother?” Seeing that Mother Shen didn’t speak, Oak-hee said, “If mother doesn’t know, just this time I can ask someone from Hebei to ask. a bit.”

Shen’s mother’s face was a little unnatural.

Oakxi didn’t say anything in person, but turned around and asked Hongshan to inquire about Wu’s details. Hongshan has a wide connection, and Yuxi gave her some money to manage, so she quickly found out the news.

Hong Shan explained the basic situation of the Wu family that she had inquired about.

After listening to Hongshan’s words, Yuxi deliberately pretended to be dissatisfied and said, “What else?” After spending a few taels of silver, she found out the number of wives and concubines in Hebei, the number of aunts, brothers and sisters, and the news was too simple. .

Hong Shan said: “It is said that the third lady manages the house rigorously, and she is well-organized inside and out, which is very important to the master.” Hong Shan is actually a little worried. From the information she has heard, it can be seen that the future mistress of the third room is not A good friend, this is very unfavorable for her girl.

Yu Xi chuckled, it was good that the Wu family was stricter in governing the family, but it was not enough to hear these useless news. It should be these people who think she gave too little money. She inquired about Wu’s news just to pretend, she had been with Wu’s for several years in her previous life, and she was very clear about Wu’s temperament, Yuxi.

Yuxi said to herself, “There are still several years, so don’t worry.” It wasn’t until she was eleven years old that the Wu family followed her father back to Beijing. As soon as Mrs. Wu came back, she competed with her aunt for stewardship. The two fought openly and secretly for several years, until her niece Qiu Yanfu designed the second brother, and her face was completely torn.

Hongshan didn’t understand what Yuxi said and asked, “Girl, what are you talking about?”

Oak-hee looked up and returned to her usual expression: “It’s no big deal to say that my stepmother is a great character, and the grandmother decides the mansion.” A few years were enough for her to prepare. In the last life, she was stupid, and in this life, Wu Shi would not want to step on her head again.

At this time, Qiu Shi was looking at the list of New Year gifts sent by Hebei, and his face was ugly after reading it.

Mama Li didn’t look well, so she quickly asked, “Madam, what’s the matter?”

Qiu Shi handed the list to Li’s mother and said, “I sent a few big carts of things all the way, all of which are worthless things. It’s a good idea to get a name without spending a lot of money!” A few big carts of things were sent, but they added up to only two or three thousand taels.

After reading it, Mama Li’s face was not very good-looking: “This Wu Shi is getting more and more excessive.” The number of annual gifts is increasing, but unfortunately there are fewer and fewer valuables.

Qiu Shi sneered: “She thinks that everyone in the world is a fool, she is the only one who is smart!” She wants to save face, but she doesn’t want to give up money, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world.

Li’s mother calmly said: “Madam, during the assessment period in March next year, the third master has been serving as a Tongzhi for six years. If there is no business, it should be mentioned this time. This matter has to be pointed out to the old lady and will be managed next year. The money cannot come out of the duke.” When her wife got married, the duke’s government ran into deficit every year. It took a lot of effort for her wife to make ends meet today. Why does her wife work so hard to do so much, not for the second master.

Qiu Shi understood what this meant, but she was a little hesitant: “You mean that the old lady will pay for the money?” Qiu was not a tight hand, and she didn’t think much about the money in the old lady’s hand. Just thinking that Mr. Wu was holding on to the money and asked the mansion to pay for it, he was always reluctant.

Li’s mother said: “Madam, even if Mrs. Wu can’t handle it clearly, the third master is not confused. I believe that the third master must have asked his confidant to send money to the old lady, and let the old lady help with the arrangements. We have to borrow this time. , let the old lady know the character of the Wu family.” The third master is from an aristocratic family, and it is impossible not to know that money is needed for management, and this money will definitely not be released by the government.

Qiu shi had a headache: “If Wu shi comes back, this mansion will probably become more and more quiet.” Although I have never seen this Wu shi, but looking at this behavior, I know that it is not a good deal.

But Mama Li smiled: “Madam, don’t worry. When Mrs. Wu came back, it wasn’t the Madam who met first, but the third and fourth girls.” The third and fourth girls followed Mr. Song to learn, even if they only learned the fur, martial arts. It is impossible for Shi to hold down the two girls.

Qiu Shi shook his head and said, “No matter how powerful the three girls and the fourth girls are, they always have to rely on their brothers at home. It is impossible for them to fight against Wu Shi.”

Mama Li didn’t argue with Qiu’s either. Only time will tell. But she believed that the third girl and the fourth girl were definitely not the ones who swallowed their voices. As long as Mrs Wu returns to the capital, her good days will come to an end.
