Chapter 221 The truth is that I am afraid of trouble
Mrs. Cen thought for a moment and then said to Cen Xiyan: "Liu Yatou, you are a calm person. Qin Yatou was spoiled by me and the girl. She is willful and outspoken. You two sisters will get along more with each other in the future. Are you?
As a sister, you should also take care of the seventh girl."
After hearing what Mrs. Cen said, Cen Xiyan couldn't help but roll her eyes. If we put aside the relatively friendly relationship between her and Cen Xiqin, Cen Xiqin was a direct descendant and she was a concubine. What qualifications did she have to take care of Cen Xiqin?
However, such words can only be cursed in the heart. Of course, they cannot be said out loud, and they cannot even be shown on their faces. Therefore, the expression on Cen Xiyan's face remained unchanged and he replied obediently: "Grandma, don't worry, we are
Sisters, you should take care of each other."
For such a difficult problem, neither agreeing nor rejecting, using this kind of advance and retreat words, Tai Chi is the most suitable way.
Hearing this, Mrs. Cen looked at Cen Xiyan thoughtfully, nodded, and said nothing more on this issue.
Cen Xiyan figured it out. This old lady would give her some questions anytime and anywhere to test her! Is this a way to evaluate her?
She understands that if she behaves with value and satisfies Mrs. Cen, she will be appreciated by the old lady. In the future, she may also get a home that the old lady thinks is good for her. Of course, the prerequisite is that she also treats the Cen family.
It's beneficial. But it's probably impossible for Mrs. Cen to love her from the bottom of her heart like Mrs. Cen loves Cen Xiqin.
Are you disappointed? Not yet. She and Mrs. Cen have not yet established the kind of ancestral-grandson friendship. She just... can't help but see the interaction between Mrs. Cen and Cen Xiqin.
Thinking of elders and relatives from another time and space, I just feel a little nostalgic and emotional.
Despite Cen Xiqin's carefree and outspoken personality, she is actually a very smart girl. Listening to the strange conversation between Cen Xiyan and Mrs. Cen, she smiled and said in a mixed voice: "Sixth sister is very good to me, so I don't want to let her go."
What about me..."
After the three of them exchanged a few words, Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin finally resigned and left Mrs. Cen's Furong Garden.
Cen Xiqin followed Cen Xiyan and walked all the way to Jinglan Pavilion.
Cen Xiyan knew that Cen Xiqin wanted to come to her yard not only for Yingxue's craftsmanship, but she also had something to say to her.
Sure enough, as soon as she entered the main building of Jinglan Pavilion, Cen Xiqin said to Cen Xiyan: "Sixth sister, would you please take me upstairs to have a look? I haven't been to your boudoir yet."
Cen Xiyan nodded, "Okay, come up." After saying that, he led Cen Xiqin upstairs.
Cen Xiqin turned around and said to the two maids behind him, Xiaoyi and Xiaoer: "You just stay downstairs, there is no need to follow me."
"Yes." The two girls agreed in unison.
Cen Xiyan's boudoir is very neat and comfortable, but compared to other ladies' boudoirs, it is still too simple. If it weren't for the gouache, jewelry boxes and other items on the dressing table, it would look a bit like a men's room. However,
The overall feeling matches well with Cen Xiyan’s temperament.
Cen Xiqin intuitively felt that her sixth sister was not suitable for a room that was too feminine.
Cen Xiqin walked around the room and sat down on a low platform.
At this time, Jingshuang came up and brought tea, poured tea for both Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin, and then left in a knowing mood. Before leaving, she tilted her neck and stared at Cen Xiqin's small eyes.
Amy also took him downstairs.
Cen Xiyan sat opposite Cen Xiqin, picked up the tea cup, and drank it leisurely.
Cen Xiqin also held a tea cup in her hand, but her mind was not on the tea at all. She looked at Cen Xiyan opposite, and hesitated several times, but she didn't say a word for a long time.
Cen Xiyan was not in a hurry, and did not look at Cen Xiqin. He drank tea slowly by himself.
In the end, Cen Xiqin couldn't bear it anymore. She called Cen Xiyan in a low voice, "Sixth sister..."
"Huh?" Cen Xiyan responded without raising his head, holding the tea in one hand, half-lifting the tea lid with the other, and blowing the powder with his head down.
"Sixth sister..." Cen Xiqin called again, this time her tone was a little hopeful.
Cen Xiyan finally raised her head. She looked at Cen Xiqin with a calm expression and a calm tone, and asked: "What do you want to say? There are no outsiders here, so you might as well just say it."
Cen Xiqin hesitated for a moment, then asked the question that had been on his mind for a long time, "Sixth Sister, you know archery, right?"
Hearing Cen Xiqin's question, Cen Xiyan couldn't help but smile, "This question is obvious." If she didn't know how to do archery, then the arrow that killed the leopard would not have been shot out of thin air by her.
?
"Your archery skills are very good, aren't you!" Cen Xiqin leaned forward and stared at Cen Xiyan with bright eyes.
Cen Xiyan thought for a moment and replied: "It's okay."
"Swish, two arrows, blind your leopard's eyes. How about shooting and screaming?" Cen Xiqin was very excited. While gesticulating, he said in a somewhat exaggerated tone: "Sixth sister, you are simply a sharpshooter!!"
Cen Xiyan twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "The first two arrows...were just extraordinary performance. Later, as you saw, I also missed many arrows."
"Sixth sister! You are dishonest!" Cen Xiqin heard this and couldn't hold back his tone, so he raised his voice and said slightly angrily: "You really think I can't tell! Those arrows you shot behind are clearly
It was intentional! Deliberately creating chaos, covering up shocking facts, and... blaming the whole thing on me! Tell me, am I right?!"
Cen Xiyan nodded and smiled slightly, "You saw it..."
Seeing Cen Xiyan's smiling face, Cen Xiqin was stunned for a moment, and then finally realized that Cen Xiyan was teasing her on purpose, and her face suddenly wrinkled, "Sixth sister, I wouldn't let you bully others like this!"
"Okay, I was wrong, don't mind." Cen Xiyan apologized and admitted his mistake in a good-tempered manner.
Cen Xiyan was like this, and Cen Xiqin suddenly felt embarrassed, "I...I didn't blame you...I just..." Cen Xiqin scratched his hair in distress, and asked: "Sixth sister, why do you want me to admit it?"
, I shot that arrow?"
"Because in the eyes of others, I can't do archery, but you can." Although the archery skills are simply terrible! Of course, Cen Xiqin said the last sentence in her heart, she was afraid to say it out loud, Cen Xiqin
Will fry the hair.
"That's it?"
"Yes, that's it." Cen Xiyan nodded.
"Sixth sister, can you tell me the truth?" Cen Xiqin didn't believe it.
