Chapter 218 She Feels Unclean
Candy, gourd, reed...
Nan Baoyi stared at the old man selling candied haws on the roadside, and his white and tender face was a little distorted.
Xiao Yi tied the reins and asked, "Do you want it?"
Nan Baoyi was very embarrassed and determined to make Xiao Yi spend money, so he said, "Please buy all the second brother, I like candied haws."
"You can't finish it."
"I'll finish eating."
Xiao Yi paid a silver ingot.
The old man smiled with the silver in his arms. Not to mention candied haws, even the straw target of candied haws was given to Nan Baoyi.
Nan Baoyi sat on the horse's back, holding a straw target that was taller than hers in her arms.
The target was filled with candied haws, and hundreds of strings.
The rock candy coat melted slightly by the spring sun, and the hawthorn fruit is bright red. It makes you look sweet and sour and delicious at a glance, and it is very attractive.
Nan Baoyi held a string and bit her small mouth slightly.
It is moderately sweet and sour, and it tastes very delicious.
After taking half a skewer, she gradually became more and more sore as she took it, and gradually she became sore in her teeth.
Seeing that her eating candied haws slowed down, Xiao Yi sneered: "Can't eat it anymore?"
"I can eat it...I just brew the relationship. When the relationship is in place, I can eat a hundred strings of candied haws."
Nan Baoyi said stubbornly, but stared at the remaining half string of candied haws and felt worried.
If she eats it, her teeth will become sore.
But if she didn't eat it, she would blow up the cowhide and she was also yelling to buy the candied haws. Can she still regret it?
It will make the powerful ministers look down on her!
Xiao Yi lowered his eyes and saw her embarrassed expression.
He touched her head, "If you can't eat it, don't eat it, keep your stomach for lunch. I told Yuwei to stew the pigeon soup you like to drink, add red dates, wolfberry and Cordyceps sinensis, which is very delicious."
Nan Baoyi is ready to move.
She hesitated to hold half a string of candied haws, "But-"
Xiao Yi tilted his head and bit off a candied haw on the bamboo stick.
He chewed it in a few bites, pulled his thin lips and chuckled: "You will not waste it if you eat it for you."
Nan Baoyi smiled sweetly, looked back at him with his head, "Is it delicious?"
"It's OK."
Seeing that his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and he didn't look like he hated him, Nan Baoyi took the initiative to hand the bamboo stick to his lips, "Second brother eat another one."
She watched Xiao Yi eat candied haws and suddenly remembered what happened when she was a child.
At that time, my second brother lived in the gloomy and dilapidated loquat courtyard, and was just a small boy.
It was very cold that winter. She held a bunch of candied haws and played hide-and-seek with her maid, and broke into his house because she got lost.
There was no ground dragon in his room, and it was as cold as a snow cave.
He sat in front of a basin of charcoal fire with a quilt, reading carefully.
After she came in, she criticized impolitely: "The charcoal emits a lot of smoke. The nanny said that the charcoal that emits smoke is choking, it is not good charcoal."
The little boy ignored her and continued to study.
She was only three or four years old at that time, and she was the pearl held by the whole family in the palm of her hand. How proud she was.
She snorted softly, squatted by the charcoal basin, and looked at him while eating candied haws.
But she squatted for a long time, and the brother she picked up was only focused on studying and ignored her.
Perhaps because she felt neglected, she deliberately put the candied haws to his mouth, "Do you want to eat them? They are sour and sweet, so delicious!"
Although she was young, she knew that this brother was not liked by the whole family. He must have never eaten candied haws. She wanted to greed for him.
The little boy raised a beautiful and delicate little face from the book.
He stared at the candied haws for a while, tentatively tilted his head and bit it down.
And when she was young, she was simply in a bad mood.
Not only did she not let him bite it, she also deliberately threw the candied haws into the charcoal basin and said happily: "I won't give it to you, I won't give it to you! A little bit!"
The candied haws are covered with dust in the charcoal pot and can no longer be eaten.
She hadn't been happy for long, the little boy had a gloomy face, grabbed her braid and pushed her to the ground!
He also grabbed a few handfuls of charcoal and brutally applied it to her face and new jacket and skirt!
She felt that she was not clean anymore!
She was bullied and cried!
She ran out of the loquat courtyard wailing, and since then, she has formed a bond with the powerful ministers.
Nan Baoyi recalled and couldn't help but feel disappointed.
When I was young, I was completely spoiled and even bullied a child without parents.
She is very responsible for growing up to her today's uneasy personality!
Her guilt became two more. Seeing Xiao Yi eating candied haws quietly, she said gently: "Second brother, eat slowly, I will make up for your lost innocence and purity."
Xiao Yi: "..."
He stared at Nan Baoyi in complicated manner.
It's blue and white, what nonsense is this little girl talking about?
He ate the last candied haw and said lightly: "Your brother's chastity has not been lost."
"I'm talking about innocence and purity!"
"Abbreviated as Zhen (Zhen) Jie."
Nan Baoyi was speechless.
The horse walked to the end of the long street, and suddenly became noisy in front of it.
Nan Baoyi put on a pergola in his hand and looked at it: "It seems that it was the carriage of Governor Xue's house. Somehow it was surrounded by the people... The one sitting in the car was the eldest girl of the Xue family."
She jumped off the horse and stuffed the candied haws and straw target into Xiao Yi's hand, "Second brother, wait here, I'll go ahead and see the fun."
Xiao Yi had no choice but to hold on to the straw target and watched her run into the crowd.
He urged the horse to walk to the side of the road, stepped down the horse and waited patiently.
Nan Baoyi ran around the crowd and finally figured out what was going on.
Xue Mei wanted to do good deeds, so she used the Xue family's night banquet to invite the noble girls in Jinguan City to donate a lot of treasures for auction, and then used the money obtained from the auction to help the people who were victimized in the snow disaster.
The snow disaster crushed the houses of many poor people in the west of the city. Xue Mei asked someone to repair the houses for them, but she built a bunch of tofu and shoddy houses. Not only did the air leak, but the originally intact roof also collapsed!
Xue Mei held a big water banquet in the west of the city and invited the poor people to dinner. As a result, the dishes were all the best. Not only did they care about their fullness, they also ate dead rats and cockroaches. Many people had diarrhea and were seriously ill and were unable to stay until now!
Nan Baoyi was dumbfounded when she heard it.
She thought Xue Mei was a girl who sincerely wanted to do good deeds.
Unexpectedly, it was just a picture name.
Now, I have not done good deeds, and I have not made any fame and fortune. I have been walking around for a long time and don’t know what it is for.
When she was sighing, Xue Mei saw her from the car window.
She grabbed the embroidered handkerchief and said, "Who is this girl riding on the same horse with the Marquis of Jingxi from afar?"
Her close friend Xia Minghui ignored the noise and scolding outside, gently stroked the tea cover, and said lightly: "Nan Baoyi, the fifth girl of the Nan family, and the sister of the Marquis of Jingxi."
"It looks familiar, but since I am a sister, it's nothing wrong to ride the same horse."
