The capital, which had been sunny for many days, suddenly started to snow again.
The old lady had been feeling unwell for the past two days, so she sent someone over early to say goodbye to everyone.
Xie Wu was afraid of the cold, so she didn't even bother to go out to the courtyard door to say hello. After breakfast, she took off her shoes and nestled on the warm couch. She raised her hand and carefully read through the game she had not finished last night.
At this time, Grandma Luo walked in with a smile on her face, holding a paper bag.
"Mommy, are you holding sweet potatoes in your hands?" Xianyue's eyes were sharp and she could recognize the bread in the paper written by Aunt Luo at a glance.
"It's just a sharp eye." Nanny Luo smiled and put the sweet potatoes wrapped in her hands into Xianyue's arms. Then she straightened her clothes, walked to Xie Wu with a smile and blessed her, "Girl, I am thinking
, It’s so cold and we can’t go out, so why not roast some sweet potatoes in the house to eat, it’ll be nice and warm.”
Xie Wu smiled lightly, and saw that Xianyue had already taken the tongs to fiddle with the brazier and couldn't help but smile knowingly, "Well, speaking of it, I haven't eaten roasted sweet potatoes in many years."
"Hey, let's teach the girl a taste of slave craftsmanship today." As she said this, Grandma Luo took the fire tongs from Xianyue's hand, and then carefully put the sweet potatoes into the brazier one by one.
After a while, a scent wafted out of the brazier.
Xian Yue's mouth watered with greed.
"Girl." At this moment, Miyue suddenly opened the curtain and walked in.
Xie Wu put down the book in her hand and looked over at Chao Mi with a smile.
Mi Yue thanked Wu for her blessing and then said, "Girl, my brother has sent me news, saying that the eldest young master has come to see the second young master three times. However, because the amount of silver he wants to borrow is too large, the second young master wants to borrow it again."
I saved up money to buy you a hairpin, so I refused."
After hearing Mi Yue's words, a smile suddenly appeared on Xie Wu's eyebrows.
However, thanks to Mei Sheng's reminder, otherwise, Xie Shi's twisted thoughts might have tricked A Xu.
In the last life, he also tricked A Xu to stand up for him. In the end, A Xu beat up the youngest son of the official minister's family, so that his father was impeached by the official official minister for not being good at raising his son and was reprimanded by his majesty. Chen even more
After spending a lot of money, the matter was finally settled, but even so, my father was tired of the matter and became more and more difficult in the court.
From the beginning to the end, Xie Shi and Erfang stayed out of everything and watched the show.
Thinking of this, the smile in Xie Wu's eyes suddenly turned cold again.
"By the way, girl, there is also Sister Yulian, she...she has been sold to Chunmanlou by a gangster." Miyue bit her lip and said, after saying that, she did not forget to raise her eyes to take a sneak peek.
Xie Wu's expression.
But after hearing her words, Xie Wu just raised her eyebrows slightly, responded casually, and then picked up the book and started reading again.
Mi Yue frowned slightly, and wanted to ask Xie Wu why she let her brother secretly use the money to let the man sell Yu Lian to Chun Man Lou? After all, Sister Yu Lian was quite nice to the girl in the past, but seeing Xie Wu
Wu's expression suddenly seemed like she didn't dare to ask again.
"What? Do you think I'm cruel?" Xie Wu noticed the unbearable look in Mi Yue's eyes first.
Mi Yue hurriedly shook her head and denied, "No, I don't think so. I just don't understand why the girl would do this? After all, Sister Yulian seems to have never done anything harmful to the girl..."
Therefore, when the girl first asked her brother to give money to Yazi, she thought that the girl was going to save Yulian, but she didn't expect...
Xie Wu curled her lips, but before she could speak, she spoke first.
"Why haven't you done this? Sister Miyue, have you forgotten that Yulian burned the physical evidence for the second lady two days ago? If Suiyu and I hadn't scared her away by pretending to be ghosts, now the girl might have been raped by the second lady.
What's wrong! Besides, it's the second lady who wants to sell Yulian, what does it have to do with our girl!" Xian Yue frowned and looked at Mi Yue and said loudly.
Miyue's eyes flickered several times, and finally she lowered her head guiltily.
It turns out that she is not as clear-eyed as Xianyue.
In the backyard of this deep house, there are so many black and white things. She should believe that the girl is the one.
"Girl, I know I was wrong." After thinking about it, Mi Yue raised her eyes and looked at Xie Wu sincerely.
Xie Wu just lightly touched the corner of her mouth, looking through Mi Yue, not knowing where she landed.
Once upon a time, she was also an innocent and soft-hearted little girl. Unfortunately, this world cannot tolerate such a little girl...
Her heart has been polished into a hard stone over the long years, and she can hardly remember what she looked like in the past.
"The sweet potatoes are roasted, let's try them, girl." At this time, Grandma Luo interrupted Xie Wu's thoughts. She carefully patted off the ash on the sweet potatoes, peeled off the outer skin, and then wrapped them in paper.
He held it up in front of Xie Wu.
Xie Wu took it with a smile.
"Miss Miyue, you should try it too." Aunt Luo peeled off another one for Miyue and said to her with a smile.
"Thank you, Auntie." Miyue pursed her lips and looked at Aunt Luo gratefully.
Aunt Luo smiled heartily and said, "What's there to thank you for? It's not a valuable meal."
"Mommy, you are partial, why don't you peel it for me." Xianyue said and took a big bite of the sweet potato, and then she was so hot that she breathed out, but she still couldn't bear to spit out the sweet potato in her mouth, so she had to
He was exhaling and jumping around the room.
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw her appearance.
"What's so lively?" At this moment, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and then Wu Qing walked up to Xie Wu with a smile and blessed her. Then she turned her eyes and saw the sweet potatoes placed beside the brazier.
, his eyes couldn't help but light up, "Hey, I said you guys couldn't come out until the sky came out, so it turned out that you were sneaking food into Miss Peng's house."
"Miss Wuqing, do you want one too?" Aunt Luo said to Wuqing with a smile.
Aunt Luo was Chen's dowry, and she and Wu Qing were old acquaintances. After hearing what she said, Wu Qing curled her lips and smiled, then she also brought a round spoon to the brazier and sat down, "It's been a while since I tasted it.
My craftsmanship is so good, I need to bake a few more, and I will bring them back later for Madam to try."
A few days ago, Mrs. Chen hired a new cook.
However, this cook's skills are not as good as those of Nanny Luo, but since Nanny Luo is now in charge of Xie Wu's house, Mrs. Chen can only use it for the time being. She has already written to her brother, asking him to find another one from Yangzhou.
A cook sent him to the capital.
Aunt Luo responded with a smile, "The turnip girl will cook for a while longer. I will go to the kitchen and bring in some more sweet potatoes."
"Mommy, get some more chestnuts." While eating the sweet potatoes, Xianyue took the time to look up at Aunt Luo with her bright eyes and said again.
Xianyue has a cheerful and lively personality. After getting along with her for a period of time, she has become close to the people in Cuizhuyuan, especially Aunt Luo, who treats her as her own daughter.
"Look at how greedy you are, you don't know who you are following." Aunt Luo glanced at her fondly, then walked out of the house.
"Girl, there is news from Yangzhou, saying that Grandma Liu has agreed, and they will send someone to take Grandma Liu to Beijing after the New Year." As soon as Grandma Luo left, Wu Qing remembered the purpose of her visit.
He smiled hurriedly and said to Xie Wu.
When Xie Wu heard this, she couldn't help but smile a little.
With Aunt Liu and Wu Qing guarding Mrs. Chen, it would not be that easy for the second roommate to take advantage of Mrs. Chen.
