The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter One Hundred and Sixth

Seeing Xie Rulan's figure go further and further away, Madam Xu only felt dizzy for a while, trying to speak, but shaking her lips, she couldn't say a word.

After a long time, she eased a little, waved weakly, and said, "You two go down too, I want to be here for a moment."

Seeing this, Tao Hong said with some worry, "But, Mrs. Xu—"

"I'll go on!"

Mrs. Xu only felt her chest suffocated, and she didn't even yell at her breath.

Seeing her firm attitude, Liu Lu pulled her pink clothes, shook her head gently, and pulled her away from here.

After waiting to go far, Liu Lu said, "She is just a foreign lady. Looking at the current situation, it is estimated that this marriage will not happen. People who will never get together in the future, what are you doing so hard to do."

After hearing this, Tao Hong disagreed, "No matter what her identity is, she is after all our guests. The master told us to take care of the guests, then we must take care of them with all our heart!"

"Cut, then you stay here, I'll go busy first." Liu Lu curled his lips, turned and walked towards the kitchen. Having been busy for most of the day, she was also hungry. In the morning, the third wife thought she was reliable, and specially rewarded a snack, which was kept in the kitchen.

Seeing Liu Lu said to leave, Tao Hong shook her head helplessly, and continued to stand on the corridor not far from the pavilion, waiting for Mrs. Xu to return.

Mrs. Xu sat in the pavilion for a while, then slowly got up and walked along the gravel path on the side. Xie Rulan's words hit her too much, and she tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart. This time she came to propose a marriage, and she had never expected this kind of thing to happen. But things have already reached this point. If she were to accept Xie Rulan as a daughter-in-law, it would be impossible!

She walked all the way, thinking wildly about how to explain it in the future, but didn't pay attention to a raised stone under her feet.

"what-"

When Mrs. Xu was caught by a stone, it was too late. She exclaimed, and she tripped and fell to the ground. The pain in her ankle made her a little bit unbearable, but she clenched her teeth when she remembered that it was at someone's house.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a female voice, "Are you okay?"

A pair of feet appeared in front of him, wearing golden lotus shoes with a few flowers embroidered on them. The shoes looked soft and clean.

He stretched out his hands, helped her up carefully, and carefully flicked away the dust for her, then asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

The woman's voice is like a mountain stream, and the sound of Ding Ding Dong Dong sounds nice. She only wore a light blue dress with flowers, no cosmetics on her face, except for the jasper hairpin that held her hair on her head, and no other decorations. This woman is better than her good temperament, her face like a goose egg is delicate and clean, and her eyes are gentle and watery, which makes people feel good.

"Thank you girl, are you?" Madam Xu smiled gratefully, and looked at the woman in front of her carefully, but couldn't guess her identity. This woman was dressed too ordinary. The maids that Mrs. Xu had seen in the past few days were even better than those dressed by this woman, but her overall temperament was by no means comparable to that of maids.

"You don't have to be polite, Madam. I am Xie Ruyun, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, and dare to ask Madam who is it?" Xie Ruyun doesn't go out on weekdays, but she doesn't know anything about the guests from the third room.

Hearing that, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but glanced at her more. She is also the daughter of the Xie family, and the girl in front of her is no more than a concubine, but her words and deeds are many times better than Xie Rulan's!

"I'm a foreign visitor. It's normal for Miss Xie to not recognize me." Madam Xu smiled slightly, and she walked to the side corridor and sat down with Xie Ruyun's support.

Xie Ruyun smiled shyly and said, "That's it, I haven't been out for a long time, and I don't know that there is a distinguished guest at home, which is really rude."

Tao Hong heard Madam Xu's faint exclamation, and hurried over, but saw that Xie Ruyun was supporting Madam Xu, and immediately came over to salute, "Please greet the eldest lady, why are you here?"

Then, she asked with concern, "Mrs. Xu, are you okay?"

"Mrs. Xu? Are you the mistress of the third sister's fiancé?" Although Xie Ruyun doesn't go out often, she doesn't know anything, so she said in surprise at the moment.

Tao Hong held Madam Xu, and smiled, "Exactly, Miss, where are you going?"

"Oh, the fourth sister said that she wanted to learn embroidery, let me teach her. Who knows I just walked here, saw this lady fall." Xie Ruyun smiled dignifiedly, and said, "It's just the fourth sister where I will be later. It doesn’t matter to go, this Madam Xu seems to have a broken foot. I’ll take this lady home first. You should go to the doctor. The distinguished guest was injured in our house, but it’s our rudeness."

She handled things in an orderly manner, and Tao Hong felt it was right, so she thanked Xie Ruyun and went to the government doctor instead. Xie Ruyun helped Mrs. Xu to walk slowly towards the guest room.

Seeing that she was dignified and advancing and retreating, Mrs. Xu secretly looked at her appearance and felt that the woman in front of her described her as sweet.

When she was able to enter the room, Xie Ruyun felt suspicious when she saw that there was no one waiting in her room, but she didn't talk too much. She just poured tea for Mrs. Xu himself and told her some jokes.

Xie Ruyun said goodbye with a smile after Tao Hong's doctor came in for treatment.

Mrs. Xu intended to stay, but Xie Ruyun used her sister as an excuse to go first.

But I didn't want to, Xie Ruyun almost ran into a wall as soon as she went out.

She hurriedly backed up two steps, looked up, but saw a man with a straight face standing in front of her.

"Sorry, it's impolite." Xie Ruyun blushed a little by the man's straight gaze, saluted indiscriminately, and then fled out.

Until Xie Ruyun's back disappeared for a long time, Xu Wenyuan was still a little dazed.

On weekdays, he concentrates on reading sages and sage books, but he has never been very concerned about beauty. But when the woman ran into him, the dark fragrance struck him, and it instantly reminded him of a poem: Fairy lady, gentleman is so beautiful.

When Xie Ruyun arrived at Tingfeng Academy, one of Xie Ruzhuo's mandarin ducks had been removed for the fourth time.

As soon as Xie Ruyun saw Xie Ruyun, Xie Ruzhuo suddenly got up and smiled, "If the big sister doesn't come again, I have to throw another ball of thread."

A cool breeze blew her face, but there was still a little blush in the roots of her ears. Hearing Xie Ruzhuo's words, she looked at it, but saw that half a crooked mandarin duck was embroidered on the silk thread frame.

Upon seeing this, she couldn't help but smiled, "Four sister, this is a special skill in the art industry, so you are not suitable for this kind of work."

Since a few days ago, Xie Ruzhuo embroidered a mandarin duck on a whim, but was treated as a wild duck by Qiao, Xie Ruzhuo became ruthless and invited Xie Ruyun to teach her how to embroider every day.

Although Xie Ruyun is very caring these days, Xie Ruzhuo's embroidery work has been worse than each day.

Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo was a little discouraged and said, "Big sister, if you hit me like this, then I am afraid I will never learn it." After that, she simply put the embroidery frame aside and smiled, "Well, since you are learning No, let them laugh."

Xie Ruyun saw her look like her daughter's family, and smiled, "Yes, yes, they are no better than your sister when it comes to piano, chess, calligraphy, and calligraphy."

"That's true." Xie Ruzhuo made a self-satisfied look, and said, "I have no chance of embroidering, but there is no shortage of embroidered women in our family. I won't learn to show ugliness. I don't have to learn."

As soon as she said this, Qian Bi was relieved and said with a smile, "This is the best way. The servant girl doesn't have to say to the wild duck every day that he looks good. If this continues, the servant girl is afraid that he will see the mandarin duck in the future. , I don't recognize it anymore."

Xie Ruzhuo stretched out her finger and nodded on her forehead, and said with a smile, "You don't want to be forgiving with your little hoof mouth. If you mess with me, be careful not to punish you for three days!"

Xie Ruyun watched the master and servant in the house enviously, and said sincerely, "The people in the fourth sister's house are clever teeth, much better than the stuffy gourds in my house."

"If my elder sister wants to, quickly lead them away, just like some skin monkeys every day, it makes me uneasy." Xie Ruzhuo gave her a smile and said, "but elder sister is quiet, the people in your yard just want I’m afraid I’m afraid I don’t dare."

Xie Ruyun's birth mother died early, and she has developed a calm and quiet temperament under her aunt's knees over the years, but she doesn't know if it's good or bad.

She remembered that the fate of the concubine in her previous life was not great. I just don't know if her fate will change in this life.

Xie Ruyun didn't know what she was thinking at the moment, and only smiled, "I'm used to being quiet. They might feel bored if they follow me."

"Big sister is so temperamental, who would dare to say a bad word? Well, yes, why did my sister come so late today?" Xie Ruzhuo said, suddenly remembering that she came almost an hour later than usual, so she just said nothing. Asked.

Hearing this, Xie Ruyun was stunned, and then said, "It's true that I met Mrs. Xu's family just when I was passing through the garden."

With that said, Xie Ruyun said the matter as it was, and finally said, "Sister, I will only tell you something, but I feel that the third aunt doesn't seem to be very satisfied with this marriage."

Seeing the doubt on her face, Xie Ruzhuo smiled and said, "In my opinion, the possibility of this marriage is unlikely."

"Why did the Fourth Sister say this?" Xie Ruyun looked at her in surprise and asked.

Xie Ruzhuo got up and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xie Ruyun. Then he smiled and asked, "When you were there to take care of Mrs. Xu, did the third aunt send someone to ask?"

"Never, she probably doesn't know it yet."

"Big sister." Xie Ruzhuo yelled and said, "Do you think it's possible? My future in-laws have a foot in my own home, but I don't even know it?"

Hearing her question, Xie Ruyun sighed a little earlier and said, "I am confused, nothing else. After all, it's someone else's business. We don't need to be too concerned about it. This guest is not what we entertain."

Xie Ruzhuo saw her indifferent look, and a thought came to her mind, because she asked, "Yes, did the big sister see the Xu family son?"

It seemed that she didn't expect that she would ask about this. Xie Ruyun was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "I saw it, it looks like a loyal person." However, when she thought of the man's look at her, her cheeks flushed.

Naturally, Xie Ruzhuo didn't miss her change. He thought about it in his heart, but said in his mouth, "That's good."

If she was right, Madam Xu would have other thoughts after this comparison.

Sure enough, as she expected, for three consecutive days, Mrs. Xu made various excuses and asked the maid to ask Xie Ruyun to chat with her. It's just that, to avoid suspicion, Xu Wenyuan was first pushed away before letting her come.

Liu Lu is a member of the Lu family, so naturally he knows everything about this news.
