Chapter 396 (1/2)
Breakfast at home has a fixed hour. On weekdays, everyone will arrive in the dining room ahead of time, and then wait for the master and the eldest wife to come to eat together.
Now Gu Yuanzhang is not at home, and the highest status in the family is naturally the eldest wife Yao Wenshu.
It's just strange that Yao Wenshu has arrived today, but Su Jiuxi hasn't come yet.
Although Su Jiuxi is very popular in Gu's residence, which is the target of envy and hatred of most people, she is actually very good at being a person. She treats Yao Wenshu respectfully and makes people unable to pick out any mistakes.
”Elder sister, why hasn't Xiao Jiu come yet?”
Seeing that it was time to have dinner, the second aunt Tai Fang LAN sitting beside Yao Wenshu couldn't help but come to her side and asked a question.
”Aunt Jiu has always been expensive and busy. Maybe she overslept?”
Hearing Fang Lan's words, the woman in red cheongsam, who was sitting outside the dining table, could not help but murmured coldly.
The speaker is no one else. It is the eight aunt Tai Qu Yunxuan.
”Jiuxi is not a man without sense of propriety.”
Yao Wenshu took a look at Qu Yunxuan, and then she turned to look at her maid: ”Chunmei, you go to the courtyard of aunt nine to see if something has happened to her?”
”It's the eldest lady.”
After listening to Yao Wenshu's command, Chunmei, a servant girl on one side, just wanted to go out. As a result, she saw Xia Beibei, who was wearing a light green cheongsam, walked in gracefully.
”I'm sorry, elder sister. I've been waiting for a long time.”
Xia Beibei smiles at Yao Wenshu, then slowly walks to her side and sits down.
”Aunt nine, your face?”
Today, a head of wave hair in the north of summer didn't curl up, but scattered lazily on her face, half hidden, barely able to cover a trace of blood on her face.
Gu Zijin is the eldest son of Gu family. He is also sitting on the other side of Yao Wenshu. From his perspective, he can see the scar on the face of Xia Beibei.
Therefore, he would not long after she married Gu Fu, Gu Yuanzhang brought Su Jiuxi back from Shencheng.
Su Jiuxi is a girl who can pretend to be pitiful in front of the eldest and the eldest wives, and coax a lot of young ladies and young masters around. She is also very agreeable. Gu Yuanzhang is always dependent on her. In recent years, people in the whole province know that Gu Yuanzhang's ninth aunt is a capable and beautiful beauty. Who knows her eighth aunt?
For this reason, Qu Yunxuan has always held a grudge against Su Jiuxi, and even always wants to kill her.
It's not a day or two for two people to tit for tat. The other sisters in the mansion thought they didn't see the smell of gunpowder between them. What else should they do
Yao Wenshu is very warm-hearted, has been to xiabeibei clip vegetables, but also told the maid to ask for a good doctor for her early.
Xia Beibei put the faces of all the people at the table in the fundus of his eyes and remained silent.
After dinner, she went back to her house. Lixiang was still kneeling in the yard, and Yunhui was watching her.
”Nine auntie, you're back!”
Yunhui saw the figure of Xia Beibei and immediately called out.
”Well.”
Xia Beibei nodded, and then slowly took out a silk handkerchief from his arms and wiped his cheek. She wiped away most of the dried blood.
Naturally, there would be no wound on her face, because the blood was fragrant.
”Aunt nine! Nine Auntie
At this time, a figure ran over.
