Chapter 1564 Niece
Chapter 1564 ·Niece
Bai Rongxuan had to swallow her farewell when she reached her mouth and said goodbye.
After waiting for a while, there was still no maid and mother who brought tea. Bai Rongxuan couldn't help but feel strange.
Even if the rules for the long-term house are loose, it would be too much to be neglected in front of the guests?
Bai Rongxuan couldn't sit still and was about to speak when a girl slowly walked in. She looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a light blue dress and embroidered with goose yellow silk thread on her cuffs.
Some leaves look graceful and light, and are very comfortable.
As soon as the girl entered the door, she noticed Bai Rongxuan sitting beside her and said in surprise, "Auntie has a guest here, so I'll come back later."
Is it someone from her parents' home who calls Mrs. Shi Da an aunt?
Bai Rongxuan was very surprised and lowered her head without saying a word.
Mrs. Shi said, "It's A'e here, come in quickly. This is Brother Zhi from the third house. By age, you have to call me brother. They are all relatives, not outsiders, so you don't have to be restrained."
A relative of your own?
Bai Rongxuan was even more strange and couldn't help but look up in the direction of Mrs. Shi.
Mrs. Shi still had the calm expression, her eyes were dull, and she could not hear the meaning in her tone, but she was as calm as if she was talking to a stranger.
Seeing this, the girl slowly walked to Mrs. Shi, bowed to Bai Rongxuan appropriately, and greeted her.
Mrs. Shi explained to Bai Rongxuan, "This is my niece, one year younger than you. I know I have worked hard, so I came to help me."
Bai Rongxuan only found it incredible.
How can I ask my niece who is not married to my parents' family to help?
She stared at Mrs. Shi, thinking that her arrangement was definitely not as simple as ‘help’.
Since that's the case, she doesn't want to stay for a long time. Bai Rongxuan stood up and said politely, "Big Madam, the old lady is still waiting for me, so I will say goodbye first and come to pay your respects to you another day."
Mrs. Shi said, "You can come here rarely, why don't you stay for a while?"
At this moment, Bai Rongxuan just wanted to leave because of her plan. She smiled and said, "It's already noon, and I have to rush back to have lunch with the old lady."
Mrs. Shi didn't keep much when she heard the sound and nodded.
It just so happened that Madam Qi also accompanied Madam Yi in, so Bai Rongxuan called Madam Yi to leave.
When Madam Yi saw that there was a woman in the room, she looked slightly and couldn't help but look at Mrs. Shi more, and her expression was very unhappy.
Mrs. Shi did not move her position and ordered Madam Qi to send Bai Rongxuan and others out of the gate of the eldest room.
She was very enthusiastic and repeatedly invited Bai Rongxuan to come and visit again in two days.
Bai Rongxuan agreed with a smile, but she didn't plan to come again.
Madam Yi obviously thought of something, and said nothing with a tense face, looking at Madam Qi coldly.
Madam Qi was stared at by her so she was so confused that she naturally held back her polite words.
After leaving the eldest room, Madam Yi asked, "Master Zhi, who is the woman next to Mrs. Shi?"
Bai Rongxuan said, "I heard the eldest lady call her niece."
"Oh...it's her!" Madam Yi immediately guessed the girl's identity and hummed coldly.
Bai Rongxuan asked in confusion, "What's wrong? But is there something wrong?"
Madam Yi said, "No, Master Zhi, don't be too careful."
He said this, but his expression looked thoughtful.
When I returned to Qizitang, lunch was ready. Bai Rongxuan washed her hands and had dinner with Mrs. Min. The table was filled with light and refreshing side dishes, and cold noodles were also made.
The cold noodles and ice water are delicious.
Bai Rongxuan ate two bowls in one breath.
Mrs. Min said, "This is too cold, I dare not eat it like this. I will feel uncomfortable when I turn back. I like to eat it and let the small stove do it again, but I can't eat too much."
Bai Rongxuan smiled and said, "I'm already full. Even if you promised me to eat, I can't eat it anymore."
Mrs. Min asked about her visiting the long room.
Bai Rongxuan answered in a lot of ways. When she heard Mrs. Shi's niece was also there, Mrs. Min moved slightly and looked at Madam Yi who was serving her side.
The two exchanged sights, as if they had understood something.
Only Bai Rongxuan was confused. She said in confusion, "Old Madam, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with the eldest lady's niece?"
Mrs. Min was stunned when she heard the sound, then she smiled and said, "Silly child, what can she have problems like, just a little girl? What is really a problem is the human heart."
Human heart?
Bai Rongxuan was even more puzzled, "Are you talking about Mrs. Shi?"
Mrs. Min smiled and said to Madam Yi, "Look at him, like Xiao Liu, he looks like a child, and doesn't think about it right at all."
Madam Yi smiled but said nothing.
What does this mean?
Bai Rongxuan couldn't figure it out and said distressedly, "How can I compete with Uncle Six? He is so smart that he has nowhere to hide after everything goes beyond his brain."
Mrs. Min smiled and said, "Although he is smart, he is the best at pretending to be stupid. If he doesn't want to know, he will never take it seriously in his life."
Bai Rongxuan said, "Uncle Six is pretending to be stupid, but I am really stupid."
Mrs. Min said, "Brother Zhi is not stupid either, he is just too simple, and some things are even more thoughtful."
Bai Rongxuan said, "Is it because the eldest wife's niece suddenly arrived and didn't tell you?"
"How could that happen?" said Mrs. Min, "Madam Qi came to see me a few days ago and reported this matter to me, but I didn't take it seriously. The eldest wife has been widowed at home for many years and still has to take care of Brother Yan.
Life is very difficult. It is not a big deal for my parents to come to see her. Can I still get in the way? Later, her niece came to her house and Madam Qi also came to ask for a meeting, saying that the little girl wanted to come and kowtow.
I am not an old lady who likes to show off, so why should I work for a child in hot weather? So I found an excuse to shirk it away." Speaking of this, she couldn't help but turn around and ask Madam Yi, "How is that girl?"
Madam Yi said, "Just take a look, but I didn't see it too clearly."
But Mrs. Min knew it very well.
With her understanding of Madam Yi, even at a glance, she will definitely remember it in her heart. The reason for her answer this must be that Mrs. Shi’s niece has an average appearance, so she doesn’t want to talk more in front of Brother Zhi.
This way you can guess.
Mrs. Shi is not very outstanding. The reason why she chose her as her eldest daughter-in-law was said to be because Mr. Bai was attracted by her stability and ability to manage the family.
Unfortunately, the master left early, and the Cai family was the one who was in charge of the family. Her talent was useless.
Seeing that Bai Rongxuan was still confused, Mrs. Min smiled and explained, "Although the times are very different nowadays, how can she, an unmarried girl, appear in front of you in public? If this is the case,
How dare she not have the arrangement of Mrs. Shi? I think it’s a shame to see Brother Yan today. It’s just a cover for you to see this niece.”
"Ah?" Bai Rongxuan was a little dumbfounded, "But...but why is this?"
Madam Yi said on the side, "Men are married when they are old, women are married when they are old, and Master Zhi is old and has reached the age of marriage."
What?
Bai Rongxuan opened her mouth wide and looked shocked.
Could it be that Mrs. Shi wants to promise her niece?
But when you think about it this way, things make sense.
Mrs. Min said, "I didn't expect that the eldest son still had this idea. It seems that he has been silent for many years and wants to make trouble."
Madam Yi said, "But this thought hit Master Zhi, it would be a bit unnecessary."
