Chapter 194 Gift

After dinner, Yuxi walked out of the yard with Zisu and Caidie. This courtyard was built under the mountain peak, Yuxi just stood outside the courtyard and felt the twilight, misty clouds, undulating mountains and rivers around, beautiful mountains and rivers, so beautiful that it seemed like she was in a fairyland.

After seeing it, Zisu couldn't help sighing, "The scenery here is so beautiful."

Cai Die said a very beautiful sentence: "The scenery is beautiful, but the layout of the house is too simple." It is so simple that I can't bear to look directly at it, even her house can't compare.

Yuxi said with a smile: "When you are away from home, it is enough to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain. How can it compare with home."

Zisu and Caidie fell silent.

Just when Yuxi was about to go back, there was a piercing cry in the jungle. Zisu's face changed drastically when she heard the sound: "Girl, this is the cry of a wolf."

Yuxi glanced at Zisu and said, "I'm sure, it's not the cry of a wolf." She had heard the cry of a wolf before, and the sound was quite imposing, not as harsh as the current one. As for what the call of the beast was, I don't know.

Cai Die was a little scared: "Girl, let's go back!" The problem is, if there is this cry at night, she probably won't be able to sleep.

Yuxi smiled and said: "There is nothing to be afraid of. The sound is right in front of us, but in fact, we don't know how far that thing is from us!" There must be no beasts that hurt people here, and Yuxi is not worried at all.

Zi Su was also a little scared: "Girl, let's go back!" Hearing that cry, I really panicked.

At this time, the sky was also dark, and Yuxi no longer forced herself to go back with the two of them. Once back in the yard, Zisu quickly bolted the door, and then told Sister Quan about it.

Sister Quan frowned and said, "It's March now, and all kinds of wild animals have come out, so don't walk around at night." Yangchun March is the season when everything wakes up. The beasts have also ended their hibernation and come out to look for food, but there is no need to worry in this area.

Zisu looked at Yu Xi who was reading again, and said, "Girl, don't read, go to bed early!" Really, he never forgets to read!

Holding the book, Yu Xi said without turning her head: "I can't sleep, if you are sleepy, go to bed first!" Although Yu Xi asked the two to go to bed early, but the master didn't rest, how could they dare to sleep. I'm really asleep, and tomorrow will be another round of admonishment by Nanny Quan.

"Howling..." This voice was especially clear in the silent night. Hearing this sound, Yu Xi accidentally knocked the candle on the table to the ground.

Zisu and Caidie also heard this call, and both of them trembled a little: "Girl, what is this call?" The sound was creepy.

Yuxi calmed down, and said: "This is the cry of a wolf. Forget it, stop reading, go to sleep!" After speaking, she did not forget to ask: "Are the gates and the outside doors and windows closed? "

Zisu nodded quickly and said, "It's closed."

Sister Quan came from the next room and said, "Miss, it was a wolf howling just now. Madam should go to bed early, and tomorrow we will go down the mountain early." I have never heard of wolves around here before. Otherwise, how dare you spend the night here.

Everyone passed the night in fear. Yuxi was okay, she didn't hear the wolf howling at midnight, and soon fell asleep. Zisu and Caidie didn't close their eyes all night.

Waking up the next day, Yuxi looked at the dark circles under the eyes of the two of them, shook her head and said, "It's just a few wolves howling, it scares you!"

At this moment, Quan Nuo also came in from the outside. Seeing the big dark circles around the corners of Sister Quan's eyes, Yuxi was a little embarrassed. Why does it feel like she's the only one who is stupid and bold!

Zisu said: "Girl, Zijin has been studying abroad for more than four years, and it's time to come back." In a situation like last night,

With Zijin here, they have nothing to fear.

Yu Xi hesitated. It took Zijin more than half a year to get into Master Yang's eyes, and now one more day of learning is worth it.

Sister Quan looked at Yuxi and said, "Girl, Zijin has been studying for four years, and her skills are enough to protect the girl." What Sister Quan meant was that Yuxi asked Zijin to learn art that day, but she just hoped There is someone who knows how to protect himself by his side, and it's not to train martial arts masters. Now that four years have passed, Zijin is able to protect the girl's safety.

Yuxi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll write to Zijin when I get back."

It may be affected by the howling of wolves yesterday, so many people went down the mountain in the morning. There is also an advantage of having a large number of people, that is, there are people who are not afraid of wild beasts.

Back at the Duke's Mansion, Qiu saw a group of people, frowned and said, "Why did you all look like this after staying on the mountain for one night?"

Yuxi smiled bitterly and said: "There are wolves on the mountain, they barked for a long time at night, and they were all frightened." Yuxi's appearance was not bad, but when other female guests went down the mountain, they still had lingering fears.

Qiu Shi was shocked when she heard this, and looked at Yuxi seriously, and saw that she was unharmed, so she was relieved: "In the future, it is better not to live outside." If I had known, I would not have let Yuxi go to Lingshan Temple Fragrant.

In the afternoon, Taining Hou Mansion delivered a lot of things. Qiu handed Yu Xi a small rosewood box and said, "This is given to me by Madam Tai Ninghou's confidant nanny, saying that it is to scare you."

Being so mysterious, Yuxi immediately opened the box, and saw a jade pendant the size of a baby's palm lying inside. As soon as Yu Xi's hand touched the jade, her eyes almost popped out: "This jade..." This jade turned out to be warm, not cold.

Seeing Yu Xi like this, Qiu felt a little weird: "What's the matter?" After she finished speaking, she looked at a piece of jade pendant in the box. A sense of warmth.

A smile appeared on Yuxi's face: "Mother, this is Nuanyu." Yuxi had only seen it in books, and never thought that she would have such a legendary thing one day.

Qiu said, "Well, it's a good thing. It should be worth several thousand taels of silver. Mrs. Tai Ning Hou has a heart, so you can wear it!"

After hearing this, Yu Xi didn't tell Qiu Shi that she couldn't buy it even if she had money, she just nodded with a smile, took out the jade pendant and put it on her neck.

The Duke's Mansion had just separated, and there were a lot of things going on, so Qiu said, "Yuxi, you go back first." She still had a lot of things to deal with. However, Qiu Shi didn't feel bored this time, anyway, after being tired this time, it will be easier in the future.

Back in Tao Ranju, the smile on Yu Xi's face could not be stopped. Sister Quan asked with a smile: "What good things did Madam tell the girl just now?" Sister Quan rarely saw Yuxi so cheerful.

Yuxi entered the room, took out the jade pendant she had just obtained from her neck, and said with a smile: "This is what Mrs. Taining Hou asked someone to give me just now." Things are small things, but what is rare is the jade pendant of Mrs. Taininghou. Mind. Yuxi has always been worried that Mrs. Taining Hou doesn't like her, and she will show her face in the future, this jade pendant dispelled this worry. Sending out such precious things shows that Mrs. Tai Ninghou recognizes her daughter-in-law.

Sister Quan also showed a smile on her serious face: "It's really a good thing." With the approval of her mother-in-law and the love of her husband, marrying into the Chen family will surely have a smooth life.

After returning from the mountain, Yuxi also fulfilled her promise, and asked Aunt Guo to make twelve cakes and give them to the entourage who followed her to the mountain.

After Qiu knew about it, she said with a smile: "You girl, you think they have worked hard, just give them two more rewards, why do you still send cakes?" Everyone in the mansion knew about Yu Xi's gift of cakes.

Yuxi is not afraid of showing off now, and said: "I promised them at the time that when I came back, each of them would give a piece of pastry made by Aunt Guo. To be a man, you have to be honest, and you have to do what you say." Even if you are a servant, you can't Fooled.

Qiu Shi just said a few words casually: "The exam will be over in two days. I just hope that Chen Ran can get a good rank in the exam this time. When you get married, you will be beautiful." Although his son said that Chen Ran's grades were very good , the top two is not a problem, but if there is no result, Qiu is worried, just learning well may not be able to pass the exam, and many talented people fail in the scientific exam. Under normal circumstances, it's fine if you fail the exam. At worst, you can take the exam next time. Anyway, Chen Ran is still young. However, understanding the monk's words still made Qiu Shi feel uneasy. She didn't believe what the old bald donkey said, but the problem was that others believed it! Once Chen Ran fails in the exam, people outside will probably say that Yuxi brought Chen Ran down.

Yu Xi was not worried at all, she had confidence in Chen Ran, and said: "Mother, don't worry, Second Master Chen will definitely pass the exam." Chen Ran is not Jiang Hongjin, and he doesn't have a brother to suppress him, so he has been going smoothly Yes, how could you fail the exam. Furthermore, even if Jiang Hongjin was suppressed by Jiang Hongfu, the number one scholar was hopeless, but the top two would definitely be fine.

Qiu Shi was anxious, but she didn't want to pass this anxiety on to Yuxi: "Well, mother also hopes that he can get into high school. It's best to get a top grade in high school. By then, no one will say sour words."

Yuxi said with a smile: "Mother, let them say sour things if they want to, don't care about those insignificant people." No matter how sour their hearts are, these people will at most whisper a few words behind their backs, and their faces are still kind of.

Qiu nodded and said, but thinking of Yuxi getting married for more than a month, she felt a little uncomfortable: "I think you were only the size of a palm when you were born, and you will be married in a blink of an eye. Time flies, how fast !" Thanks to Ning's kindness in saving the life of her youngest son, Qiu made great efforts when Ning gave birth. Otherwise, the Ning family would not be able to pass the test of production.

Ms. Li really thinks that her wife really doesn’t mention which pot to open. Doesn’t this remark just remind the fourth girl of her biological mother who died young: "Ma'am, didn’t you just say that the kitchen bills are wrong?"

Qiu Shi was wondering, what's wrong with the kitchen's accounting? I saw Li's mother wink at her. After so many years, the master and servant still have this tacit understanding, nodded immediately and said: "Yes, I have forgotten about it. Yuxi, then you go back first."

Yuxi couldn't see that Li's mother was helping her out, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, then I'll go back." She didn't know how to answer the words just now.

After Yuxi left, Qiu Shi asked: "What's the matter, do you want to avoid Yuxi?" Hee.

Mother Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Ma'am, you just mentioned that the fourth girl was born, and the fourth girl will definitely think of Mrs. Ning who passed away."

After hearing this, Qiu Shi also felt that it was inappropriate: "I hope that child doesn't think too much." The child is kind-hearted, so he shouldn't think too much. (to be continued)
