Rebirth of the Anti-Bone

Chapter 98 Vanity

Sulan Court.

"Xia Liulang! What are you doing hiding here?" The clear female voice was quite sweet, but it was hard to hide the anger in it.

"Xue... Cousin Xue'er." I saw a cute boy hesitantly emerge from behind the pear blossom wooden screen.

The boy was about six or seven years old, with a necklace around his neck and a baotou, very cute.Just being pointed at by a little girl with playful shofar braids, a small bell, and a silk green dress, blushing, wishing to dig a hole to bury herself.

"Xia Liulang, how many times have I told you? You are not allowed to sneak into my room, you are not allowed to sneak into my room, why can't you understand human speech?" Li Xuenu stared at Shu Runrun His eyes and his small face were full of anger.

"Cousin Xue'er, I, I want to play with you." The little boy looked at the little girl pitifully, his little hands twisting the corners of his clothes unconsciously, looking extremely pitiful.

"But I don't want to play with you, so hurry up!" The little girl didn't relax at all.

"Cher..."

"Hmph!" The little girl had already stepped into the inner room.

The little boy wanted to step up to follow, but thought of the little girl's determination, so he pursed his mouth and walked away dejectedly.

"The sixth young master is so pitiful, even the young lady doesn't want to play with him." Xiangqin twisted her handkerchief, thinking of the frustration on the boy's face, her heart softened.

Xiangyun dropped the needlework she was doing and stared at Xiangqin, "What? Do you still sympathize with Mr. Xia? Have you forgotten how the Xia family treated Miss?"

Xiangqin blushed, and said, "Sixth Young Master, he, he is different."

Xiangyun rolled his eyes, "What do you mean? Could it be that the grievances that the young lady has suffered will be in vain? Hmph! Have you forgotten that the things that the young master sent to the young lady were all searched for by those greedy people?" How much? Hmph, they are all hungry wolves who can’t get enough to eat!”

Xiangqin was a little aggrieved, "Then, didn't Miss take all the things back?"

Xiangyun became even angrier, "What are you grabbing? It's all Miss's stuff! Isn't the amount of silver that Young Master gives to Xia's family every year less? I still want Miss's stuff!"

Xiangqin was silenced by Xiangyun, so she had to hide in a corner with a needle and thread and sulked.

Xiangyun twitched the corners of her lips, and looked at Xiangqin with a cold gaze.

Throwing away the half-embroidered handkerchief in his hand, Xiang Yun took the key at his waist, opened the cage in the corner of the wing room, and took out an exquisite jewelry box.

Although Xiangqin kept working, she kept paying attention to Xiangyun's movements from the corner of her eye.Seeing Xiangyun open the cage, a trace of jealousy flashed in Xiangqin's eyes.Why?Even though they are all Miss's little girls, Xiangyun can be in charge of the keys to the cage, but she can only do some rough work?Obviously there are rough girls in the yard, but the young lady wants her to do some rough work!The girl who is in charge of the master's finances is the one who is truly respectable. Isn't she the girl who has been following the lady all the time?

Xiangqin was complaining about herself, but she didn't notice that Xiangyun's eyes were colder.

Xiangyun chose a set of delicate and cute jewelry suitable for Li Xue's age, and chose a new skirt.

"Miss is going to take a bath, Xiangqin, why don't you hurry up and prepare hot water?" Xiangyun said coldly to Xiangqin, holding her clothes and jewelry.

A trace of unwillingness flashed across Xiangqin's face, but she still left in dismay.

"Miss." Xiangyun combed Li Xue's black and bright hair, looked at her young lady's young face in the glass mirror, "Xiangqin seems to have a big heart." She didn't say much, The movements of the hands are meticulous.

Li Xue played with the blue bracelet-like little snake on her wrist, pouted her small mouth, "It's nothing. My brother said that everyone has their own ambitions. Since Xiangqin wants to leave me and go to another high branch, then I will let her do it. "

Xiangyun's hand paused, although it was a little unexpected, it was reasonable.She has been with her for so many years, and she still knows what kind of temperament her young lady is.It's just a bit of a pity for Xiangqin, anyway, they were also selected from the Lijun Palace together, and then they have been serving the young lady by her side.Since Miss said so, Xiangqin will never have another chance.

Xiangyun turned her head to prepare the things for the young lady to take a bath.

Li Xue held her chin and muttered to herself, "Ah Cai and Abi, why did Xiangqin betray Xueer? Could it be that Xueer is not good enough for her? But Xueer has already done her best... "

Li Xue's face showed a bit of disappointment, and her pretty face also dimmed a lot, "Brother, Xueer will be ten years old next month, isn't brother coming for Xueer's birthday?"

"What's the matter? You clearly ordered the kitchen to boil the young lady's fragrant soup, and the spices were also delivered, why did you bring back ordinary water?" Xiang Yun almost jumped out of anger when he saw the hot water brought back by Xiangqin.

Xiangqin felt a little guilty, "Fifth Miss also wanted to take a bath, but the hot water wasn't ready yet, so I, I asked Fifth Miss's girl to bring the fragrant soup first and leave."

Xiangyun looked at Xiangqin in disbelief, "Miss Wu wants to use fragrant soup, wouldn't she send someone to buy spices herself? Do you remember that Miss also needs to take a bath, you don't know that Miss's spices are specially prepared by the young master?" Is it something good that even thousands of dollars can't buy back? In the Xia family, besides the old man and the old lady, who else has the blessing to use the spices that the young master made himself?"

Xiangyun's fingers were almost on the tip of Xiangqin's nose, and Xiangqin was also annoyed, "Anyway, miss is using it every day, and it's just not a big deal once she doesn't use it."

"You!" Xiang Yun was really about to be laughed out of anger, "Whose girl are you? Is it Miss Xia's or Miss Xia Wu's?"

"I..." Xiangqin was stunned for a moment, "I'm also doing it for the sake of the young lady! Since the young lady lives in Xia's house, it's appropriate..."

"Bath." A soft voice came, and Xiangqin was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that Li Xue had already taken off her outer shirt, only wearing a middle coat, and was looking at her expressionlessly.

Suddenly, Xiangqin felt a chill down her spine. Obviously, her young lady was not yet ten years old, and she was also eccentric on weekdays. This was the second time she saw her look like this.The first time was when Miss found out that Miss Xia Er and Miss Xia Wu were not as good as they seemed.Xiangqin suddenly recalled that many years ago, in front of all their servants, the young master killed the maids who served the young lady one by one, the young master looked like this...

"Sister Xiangqin, Xue'er wants to take a bath." Li Xue stuck out her little tongue, with a sweet smile on her face.

Xiangqin blinked, and found that Li Xueming was smiling all over her face, and blinked with some doubts. Xiangqin quickly agreed, poured hot water into the tub, and sweated profusely, took cold water and mixed it in.Just now, she must have misread it, right?

After Li Xue took a bath, she lay lazily on the couch to rest, and Xiang Yun wiped her wet hair with a dry handkerchief.

Although the fragrant soup was not what he was used to, Li Xue still felt that every pore was stretched, so that Li Xue didn't feel unhappy when a girl came to invite Li Xue to a small banquet.

Xiangyun was a little unhappy, "Second Miss and Fifth Miss must have invited those noble ladies with their chins up to the sky to play, and every time they invited Miss to go, but they still thought of ways to exclude Miss. Look, servant girl, Miss still doesn't want to go."

Li Xue played with the pets, and blinked playfully, "Why not? Since the sisters are so enthusiastic, how can Xue Er win the kindness of the sisters?"

Xiangyun thought for a while, anyway, her own lady can't suffer, so just go.

Li Xue changed her outfit again and went to the main courtyard.

After entering the flower hall, Li Xue was surprised to find that it was not a small banquet hosted by her cousins, because there were clearly several sons of Yushu Lanzhi at the banquet.

Xia Er and Xia Wuju were shy.Xia Erben is a well-known talented woman in Jiangzhou, her every move is gentle, so Li Xue was not surprised.On the contrary, Xia Wu, who has always been escaping, is actually shy today, sitting in a well-behaved manner, obviously wanting to be a lady of a famous family.

"Cousin Xue'er, you are here." Xia Er smiled slightly when he saw Li Xue, showing the demeanor of a generous and virtuous cousin.

"Xue'er has seen some cousins, my lord." Li Xue saluted and sat aside.

Xia Wu glared at Li Xue, with contempt and jealousy in her eyes, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only twist her veil desperately in her sleeve.

"Who is this lady?" A young man who was about fifteen or sixteen years old at the table asked curiously.

Xia Wu hurriedly said, "Young Master Baili, Cousin Xue'er is a relative who temporarily lives in Xia's family." She really didn't want Li Xue to show off!She obviously had his eyes on Young Master Baili first!Xia Wu saw that although Li Xue was still very immature, she could already see what a wonderful face she had in the future, and she felt extremely resentful in her heart.This kind of resentment intensified after Mr. Baili clearly expressed his interest in Li Xue.

"That's it..." The young master had a bit of disappointment on his face. If he needed to live in Xia's house, he would have nothing to do with it.Although he is a little beauty, he doesn't need to pay too much attention to it.However, it would be nice to wait a few years to marry the daughter of the Xia family first, and then take this little beauty into the house as a concubine.

Li Xue's cute little brows frowned. She didn't like the young man's gaze very much, and she couldn't help but want to beat him up.Li Xue casually brushed the newly worn bunny hairpin on her hair, and the silver bell on her wrist made a crisp sound.

Just such a sound of bells, the eyes of everyone at the banquet flickered, and suddenly found that the new little beauty was wearing a gaudy red pleated skirt, and although there was a cute bunny hairpin on her head, she was still a little girl. Matched with a golden head and face inlaid with oriental beads, and several colorful bracelets on her hands, she can't wait to turn herself into a treasure shelf!

She was obviously a lovely little beauty before, so why did she suddenly become vulgar in the eyes of everyone?Xia Wu didn't notice the strange change in the atmosphere at all, she stared at the pair of coral blood bracelets on Li Xue's wrist, her eyes were almost red.Don't think she doesn't know, the pair of bracelets were the finale treasures at the Zhenbao Pavilion auction last month, costing tens of thousands of taels of silver, but now they are worn on Li Xue's wrists!

"Cousin Xue'er, your pair of red bracelets are so beautiful, can I show my cousin?" Xia Wu couldn't help but ask.

When Xia Er heard this, his expression became ugly.Although she also disliked Li Xue for embarrassing the Xia family, but Xia Wu begged for jewelry from his cousin in front of so many young masters, it was really ugly.

The young masters who had a good impression of Li Xue before did not speak, still wondering why they had a good impression of that young woman who was so vain at a young age.It must be because they only saw her face before and didn't pay attention to her attire.

Li Xue raised her little head, and the Dongzhu on her head trembled and collided with her movements, making crisp sounds.

"Look at Xue'er's bracelet? Okay." Li Xue stretched out her hand to take the bracelet, and Xia Wu stretched her neck, but Li Xue got half of it, and then put the bracelet back, then looked at Xia Wu pitifully, "Fifth Cousin, will you return it to Xue'er?"

Xia Wu was stunned for a moment, then blushed all over his face, noticing the strange eyes of the young masters, Xia Wu was ashamed to the point of embarrassment.Li Xue What does this mean?Doubt she won't give her things back?Xia Wu was so angry that he was shaking all over.

"Cousin Xue'er, don't worry, your fifth cousin just wants to take a look." Xia Er noticed something was wrong, and quickly smoothed things over.

"The second cousin said the same thing last time, but the second cousin wanted to see Xueer's hairpin made of fragrant jade, and Xueer went to her cousin's yard in person, and the cousin remembered that she wanted to return it to Xueer. They all forgot about Xue'er's jewelry." Li Xue's face was full of innocence.

Xia Er's face also turned red. She didn't want to take Li Xue's things at first, but that time Li Xue's jewelry made of fragrant jade was not only precious, but also very rare. Li Xue personally went to ask for it.She never bothered to take things from Li Xue, of course, what others gave her didn't count.

"Cousin Xue'er, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xia Wu came back to his senses, seeing Xia Er's face was full of shame, gloating and annoyed at the same time.

"But...but..." Li Xue was extremely anxious, and she shrank her neck pitifully.

"Cousin Xue'er, I just want to see your bracelet. If you don't want to show it to me, don't talk nonsense and slander your cousins!" Xia Wu raised his brows and pointed at Li Xue very dissatisfied.

"I didn't... Xueer didn't..." Li Xue was about to cry, "Second cousin didn't borrow Xueer's jewelry and didn't return it, and fifth cousin didn't take away Xueer's things directly, it's all Xueer's fault. Xue'er shouldn't casually wear the clothes and jewelry sent by her brother to be an eyesore..."

Li Xue became more and more at a loss as she spoke, like a delicate white flower blown by the wind and rain, she was so pitiful and heart-wrenching.Even if she was gaudy, her weak temperament was still undiminished, and the condemning eyes of the young masters fell on Xia Wu.

"You! You!" Xia Wu was about to go crazy.

"My dear Xue'er, you can wear whatever you want in the future. No one can steal your things. If anyone dares to steal your things, my brother will break his hand!" A firm voice came, Li Xue trembled all over, like Afraid that he was dreaming, he slowly turned around.

"Brother!" Li Xue looked at the longing figure in the distance, her eyes turned red with excitement.

"Brother!" Li Xue didn't care about being weak, she lifted her skirt and ran like a baby swallow, and plunged into the boy's embrace.

"Brother, brother, brother..."

Li Xi hugged the little man in his arms, feeling soft in his heart.My sister has grown up and become cuter.

"Brother, you're finally here, Xue'er misses you so much, misses you so much!" Li Xue rubbed Li Xi's arm, her little face was full of tears of excitement, Li Xi's heart was about to break when she saw it.

"Xue'er, be good, my brother will never leave you again."

Li Xi rubbed the top of Li Xue's hair in a pity, feeling a little numb, but secretly thought that Xue'er really liked the jewelry he gave, otherwise why would she wear so much in her hair?

"My brother is here to pick up Xue'er. If Xue'er doesn't cry, it won't be cute anymore."

"Xue'er didn't cry." Li Xue wiped tears off Li Xi's clothes, and her little mouth pouted.

Li Xi laughed, "Okay, okay, our Xue'er didn't cry."

Chu Jinheng looked at the big and small huddled together, and suddenly had the urge to separate them.

After a long time, Li Xi realized that Li Xue's gaudy attire was the same as the prodigal playboy he was back then?It's just that one is a vulgar dude, and the other is a vain little beauty.
