893, outsiders
Xu Shu suffered a grievance in the Qi family. Mrs. Zheng Si felt very distressed and became better to Xu Shuyue. Master Zheng Si also dared not attack the Zheng family because of the help of the Fu family. The burden on her body became lighter. She was grateful to Xu Shu who caused this situation and her attitude towards Xu Shu was much better.
Seeing that Mr. Zheng Si became close to Xu Shu, some of them cultivated their father-daughter relationship, so he stopped mentioning that he would take Xu Shu to the other courtyard to escape the summer heat. He was afraid that when he went to the other courtyard, Xu Shu and Mr. Zheng Si became unfamiliar again. Master Zheng Qi was eager to wait for Mrs. Zheng Si to go to the other courtyard to escape the summer heat. He heard that after he stopped going this year, he was extremely depressed and could not even be energetic in studying. He wanted to complain to Xu Shu, but Xu Shu was with Mrs. Zheng Si every day, and he could not even see Xu Shu.
Xu Shu had only been at peace for two days. On this day, Xu Shu was picking a hairpin at Mrs. Zheng Si. Because she was in Qi's family, she rewarded Ye Lan with the double-stranded hairpin. Mrs. Zheng Si thought that Xu Shu didn't have much decoration, so she asked the Jinlou outside to send some to Xu Shu to choose.
"This one looks good, with rubies falling on it, which looks both festive and beautiful to your skin!" Mrs. Zheng Si gestured on Xu Shu's bun with a butterfly tassel hairpin, feeling very satisfied.
Xu Shu held it in her hand and looked at it, shook her head, "It's too bulky. If you wear it for a day, your neck will be sore!"
Mrs. Zheng Si weighed the portion and felt it was a bit heavy, but looking at the workmanship and the quality of the gems, it was a rare top-quality product. Although Xu Shu said this, it was hard to guarantee that she would not be useful, so she still stayed and picked up another one, "Looking at this again, it is tiring, light and unique, do you like it?"
Xu Shu looked at the thin golden silk, waved her hand, "This is too fine. If you scratch your head, you may be broken!"
Mrs. Zheng Si thought about the double-string hairpin used by Xu Shu to stab Mr. Qi Si. It seemed that she still liked it to be solid and durable, so she still took a double-string hairpin, "What about this one? It's simple and simple, and it looks good with pearl flowers!"
Xu Shu took it over and tried it in her hand, "This is a good choice!" It's enough to use it for self-defense!
"Then pick some other ones. After so many, I will pick one or two of them, so it's not good to let others go for nothing!"
Mrs. Zheng Si was pulling Xu Shu to pick her up when she suddenly heard someone come to report, "Mrs. Xu is here?"
"Who is here?" Mrs. Zheng Si did not react for a moment who came.
"Madam Xu!" Jin Ling said again.
Looking at the faint smile on Xu Shu's face, Mrs. Zheng Si understood, "No!"
Jin Ling hesitated and refused to leave.
Mrs. Zheng Si felt strange, "What's wrong?"
Jin Ling said, "Miss Xu Shi is here too!"
Mrs. Zheng Si sighed, "Forget it, bring the person here!" She comforted Xu Shu and said, "If you don't want to see her, just avoid it!"
Xu Shu smiled and said, "We all brought Ten Sisters with us. Obviously we came here. We couldn't avoid it just by trying to avoid it. Even if I avoid it, she would find a way to force me to show up. Since that's the case, it's better to just wait!" Xu Shu picked up a string of gem beads and put it on her temples, "Mother, is it good-looking?"
"Good look!" Mrs. Zheng Si nodded and helped Xu Shu pick two pairs of beads.
When Li came in, Mrs. Zheng Si and Xu Shu were having fun around the table. The golden decorations on the table stinged Li's eyes.
"Mrs. Zheng Si, I suddenly came to my door today. I would like to ask Mrs. Zheng Si to forgive me if I take the liberty!"
Mrs. Zheng Si took the hairpin and gestured on Xu Shu's bun, while casually saying, "Mrs. Xu, you are polite. The visitor is a guest. Since I am a guest, I should treat you with all my heart! Jin Zhi, make the best tea!"
"Yes!" Jin Zhi quickly brewed the tea and presented it. Li took the tea, but his eyes fell on Xu Shu. Since she came in, Xu Shu has been facing her back to her, never looking back, let alone having to greet her. Mrs. Zheng Si didn't mention this. Li felt a little uncomfortable, and poked Xu Sheng and signaled Xu Sheng to say hello to Mrs. Zheng Si and Xu Shu.
Xu Xian was already very unhappy when she was forced out by Li today. In addition, she knew the purpose of Li coming to Zheng's family today, so she felt even worse.
It was so good that she just pretended to be unresponsive by Li like this. Li was so angry that he pinched Xu Sheng hard.
Xu Xian screamed immediately, "Why are you pinching me?"
Xu Xian shouted, and Li couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Seeing Mrs. Zheng Si's eyes coming, she blushed and explained, "The child doesn't understand the rules, so Mrs. Zheng Si will laugh!" She also scolded Xu Xian with a hunchback, "Why don't you apologize to the Fourth Lady? How can you shout like this?!"
Mrs. Zheng Si smiled perfunctorily and did not comment.
Xu Xian made up his mind to make Li embarrassed until Li was no longer ashamed to stay in Zheng's family. He immediately retorted, "If you hadn't pinched me, I wouldn't have called me. You would have apologized for it!"
"You!" Li was so angry that he was about to beat him.
Not only did Xu Xian not hide, but instead took the initiative to turn his face over, "You beat me! You beat me! You beat me to death!"
Li just acted to scare Xu Sheng. In other people's homes, she wouldn't really beat Xu Sheng in front of Xu Shu! She had to raise her hand unwillingly, and finally let it go!
Xu Xian raised his chin proudly, and a smile appeared on Xu Shu's lips. Xu Xian really took it for her, so he picked a jade hairpin from the bunch of decorations in front of him and waved to Xu Xian, "Ten Sisters, do you like this?"
Xu Xian stomped his feet with regret, "I am not your tenth sister!"
Xu Shu smiled faintly, "None of them are outsiders, so don't deny it, even if you deny it, will Mrs. Xu deny it?"
Xu Sheng glanced at Li's embarrassing expression and knew that Li was only able to be told by Xu Shu. Moreover, the word "outsider" in Xu Shu was talking about was for whom. Li knew it very well, but Li tried his best to pretend that he couldn't understand it.
Xu Xian curled his lips, walked to Xu Shu, and smiled at Mrs. Zheng Si in a well-behaved way, hoping that Mrs. Zheng Si would not care about her rudeness just now.
Mrs. Zheng Si took the jade hairpin from Xu Shu's hand and inserted it on Xu Sheng's head, "You're just right to wear this!"
Xu Xian smiled sweetly, "Do you want to give it to me by madam?"
Mrs. Zheng Si nodded, "I'm going to choose a jewelry for your Ninth Sister, so you can also take a look! Xiaojiu, please help your Tenth Sister choose a few! "
