Chapter 231 Begging


Chapter 231 Begging

Xia Zilan is young, only seven years old this year. She has a temper like a firecracker, and she is quick to act at the slightest. She is still stupid and can't always turn around some things. She also likes to curse people and cause trouble.

Since she was three or four years old, she has liked to follow Xia Ziying and please Xia Ziying. In Xia Ziying's eyes, Xia Zilan is her foil and a useful chess piece in her hand, specially used to deal with others.

When she was in Jiangning City, Xia Ziying used her to ruin the reputations of several girls she disliked.

Today, she wanted to do the same thing again, trying to use the confused Xia Zilan to destroy Xia Zihan's reputation, but she didn't expect that Xia Zilan was so frightened by Xia Zihan's words at the beginning that she almost panicked. Involved.

She was stealing a chicken but losing a handful of rice.

And the reason why she would lose, she would never have thought in her wildest dreams, was that Xia Zihan knew that Xia Zilan was afraid of her elders, so she deliberately used Xia Shiming's banner to suppress Xia Zilan.

Xia Zihan won a round, but she was not very happy because she knew that this was just the beginning.

Xia Ziying's suffering was just the beginning.

Xia Ziying, her good third sister, will never let her have an easy time in this life.

The corners of Xia Zihan's lips curled up coldly, and she glanced at Xia Ziying deeply. When she felt that she was looking over, she had already looked away and said with a smile, "Today is the first day I come here to visit my mother and my eldest, third and fourth sisters. I also brought gifts for everyone,”

Then she ordered Nuanyu's maids to bring up the gifts she had prepared.

She personally took a box of snacks from Chu Cang and handed it to Qin's mother next to Xu, "This box is for mother. It is the red bean cake that mother loves to eat. This is a snack made by me. Mother, come Before, I often made snacks for my father, and he loved them. ”

Then she pointed to three identical food boxes in Chu Lin and Chu Fei's hands, "These boxes are for the eldest, third and fourth sisters. There are crystal cakes, osmanthus cakes, barley and red date cakes. I don't know what you like to eat. I Just made a few more.”

"The remaining boxes are for father." She called Aunt Zhang and told her, "Send them to father's study. It's a good time to eat when father stays up late to approve papers."

Aunt Zhang and a little maid came over, took the four food boxes from Nuanyu Chukui's hand, said goodbye to Mrs. Xu, and went out with the maid holding the food boxes.

Xia Zilan opened the food box and saw a layer of exquisite and beautiful snacks inside. She became greedy and drooled, "Second sister, can I eat it now?"

Xia Zihan smiled and said, "Yes, this is food for you, you can eat whatever you want."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Zilan stretched out her hands to grab it, grabbed two or three pieces with each hand, and put it into her mouth vigorously. Mrs. Xu frowned, and Xia Ziying and Xia Ziqing felt embarrassed.

Xia Ziqing couldn't help but scolded, "You're a starving ghost and you're reincarnated. There's no shortage of food or drink for you at home. Do you have anything to eat? Why don't you put it down quickly? Don't act like a bumpkin who hasn't eaten good food." It will totally embarrass the Xia family.”

Xia Zilan pursed her lips and reluctantly put down two pieces. The remaining two pieces refused to be put down no matter what, so she stuffed them into her mouth and swallowed them.

The dry snack almost choked her to death.

Nuan Yu was still clever and quickly poured a glass of water for her to drink. She breathed out comfortably and said, "It's so delicious. The second sister is really capable. Neither the eldest sister nor the third sister can make snacks."< br>


Xia Ziqing's face turned dark, "..."

Xia Ziying bit her lip, "..."

The silly Xia Zilan was still unaware and asked Mrs. Xu expectantly, "Second aunt, when we come to the capital, will the food we eat in the future be the same as in the Xia family?"

It's not that she is talkative, but... last night, the maid gave her two dishes, saying that every meal would have two dishes in the future.

Although she didn't finish both dishes, when she was at Xia's house, she always had three dishes and one soup.

Before she came, her mother had told her not to let her second aunt bully her and deprive her of food, so she had to ask this question clearly.

Xu's temples were throbbing with veins, and she glared at Xia Zilan, grinding her teeth and saying, "What to eat, how much to eat, it's like in Jiangning City, it's the same here, and your monthly salary is a lot."

In Jiang Ning Xia's family, snacks, vegetables, soups, breakfast, etc. all have systems passed down from our ancestors.

The same goes for monthly examples.

Like Xu, the monthly salary is thirty taels of silver a month, snacks are one pound a day, and breakfast, lunch and dinner are five dishes and one soup.

The girls' monthly salary is ten taels of silver a month, half a catty of snacks a day, and three dishes and one soup.

But that was in Jiangning City, supported by Xia's father-in-law's money, and here, with only Xia Shiming's salary of more than thirty or forty taels of silver a month, how could it be possible to support the expenses, food and drink of so many people.

Just for the three girls Xia Ziying, they get thirty taels of silver a month.

However, whether Xu has enough money or not, that is Xu's business and has nothing to do with Xia Zihan.

Aunt Yu stepped forward, holding four dresses in her hands. Xia Zihan casually picked up a five-color brocade plate and gold embroidered damask skirt, "Mother, this is the dress I made specially for you. Try it on and see if it fits you." Doesn’t fit.”

Xu and Xia Ziqing's eyes lit up. Xia Ziqing said in surprise, "Is this ice brocade or gold color show? Oh my God, this dress costs hundreds of taels of silver, right?" Of course not, she only spent some. The cost of the golden embroidery thread and the rest were all made by the embroiderers of Yusha Pavilion.

And the fabric...

Xia Ziying stepped forward and touched her clothes. There was a jealous look hidden deep in her eyes. She glanced at the ice cicada silk on Xia Zihan's body unintentionally and said with a smile, "Eldest sister, it is ice brocade, but there is no second sister. The ice cicada silk on the body is precious.”

The purpose is to accuse Xia Zihan of wearing ice cicada silk, but giving ice brocade pieces to Xu, showing false filial piety.

If you were really thoughtful, why not give Mrs. Xu a piece of ice cicada silk to wear?

Xia Zihan was wearing a dress from Yushage Town Store today. The clothes on her body were gorgeous, expensive, fashionable and fashionable. The first time Xia Ziying saw it, she was so jealous that she wanted to step forward and take off her clothes. , put it on yourself.

Xia Zihan slightly raised her lips, "The ice cicada silk is a tribute and is rarely available on the street. The one I am wearing was bought specially for me by my grandmother. If Third Sister has the ability, she can buy it herself. One to honor my mother. I think my mother will like the one Sanmei bought more than the one I bought. After all, Sanmei is my mother’s biological daughter.”

Did you hear that, my grandmother bought it for her granddaughter to wear? If you want it, there is no way.

If you have the ability, buy it yourself.

You, your biological son, don’t even buy it, but you still want to take advantage of me, your stepdaughter. What do you think?

My brain was caught in the door.

The two sisters were sarcastic and would not give in to anyone.

Xia Ziying bit her lip, tears flashing in her eyes, "If I had money, I would have bought it for my mother long ago."

He looked at Xu aggrievedly.

Mrs. Xu glanced at Xia Zihan's clothes and said with a smile on her face, "Ms. Yu is very sincere. No matter what you give me, I will be happy."

"Mother, although this piece of ice brocade is not as good as ice cicada silk, it is also the fabric given to me by the Queen. It is a tribute from other places. There are only five pieces of cloth a year. The Queen gave me a piece of cloth. This is But it’s rare.”

Who dares to say anything bad about something the Queen has given her?

At this time, even Xu, who was unhappy, did not dare to make a fuss about the clothes.

Next, the three sisters Xia Ziqing each took one piece.

Their clothes are not too expensive, but they are the most popular patterns and styles in Yusha Pavilion this year. Xia Zihan asked Qi Mei to prepare them early.

Xia Zilan is young and easily satisfied. When she sees new clothes to wear, she doesn't care what kind of fabric they are, as long as they are beautiful, she likes them.

She happily hugged Chu Meng. She wanted to hand it to the little maid next to her, but she snatched the clothes she held over her. Her mouth broke with laughter.

After Xia Ziqing glanced at Xia Zihan, she said thank you and asked the maid to take the clothes.

Xia Ziying bit her lip, with tears in her eyes, unable to fall off. She looked at the clothes in the maid's hands, and then at the clothes on Xia Zihan's body. Her aggrieved expression seemed as if Xia Zihan had snatched her clothes. have to.

Mrs. Xu bit her lip and said to Xia Zihan with a look of embarrassment, "Yu Niang, you see, you are Ying'er's sister, why don't you give your clothes to Ying'er?"


If Ying'er wears such a good dress, she will be respected among the noble ladies in the capital in the future.

Even booking a reservation with my husband’s house will be easier.

"I can't give these clothes away." Xia Zihan refused without hesitation, "This is something my grandmother worked hard to find to give to me. If I give it away, wouldn't I be disregarding my grandmother's feelings? She will have to do something when she finds out. How sad, I won’t do such an unkind, unjust and unfilial thing.”

Seeing the mother and daughter in front of her acting out in front of her again, just like in the previous life, Xia Ziying would shed tears of grievance when she saw something good from her, and Mrs. Xu would ask for it, as if she was born in debt. Just like their mother and daughter.

Xia Zihan felt disgusted when he saw it and despised it. ,

In her previous life, she would have been thinking about sisterly love and would be too embarrassed to refuse. She would hand-deliver all her good things to Xia Ziying and let her show them off to people outside.

In the end, she gave her fiancé to Xia Ziying, but what happened to her in the end?

A fate of being beaten to death by Xia Ziying.

In this life, Xia Ziying would not want to ask for any favor from her.

Xia Zihan's rejection immediately made Xia Ziying shed tears, and Mrs. Xu glared at her.

Xia Zihan looked calm, "Since Third Sister saw me crying, I think Third Sister doesn't like to see me, so I'll leave."

Ann was invited and gifts were given, and the scene was almost over.

Mrs. Xu was just about to keep her to talk about the house and Zhuangzi, but Xia Zihan left the house without looking back and returned with a large group of servants to protect her.
