Chapter 58
————————
The two Lins were holding hands and chatting. They were crossing the main house in the middle courtyard and crossing the bridge sill when they suddenly saw Ming Jin who was walking in front and stopped.
On the small bridge over this lake, the hibiscus flowers that grow very well beside the bridge are in bloom, and the flowers fall into the water. There is also a flower tree at the other end of the bridge. Rose, the flowers are in bloom, and the ones under the tree are stunned by the people crossing the bridge.
Two young girls were suppressed.
The one crossing the bridge is bright and soft, restrained in the heart, like a jade white orchid growing on the roots of green bamboo. It is both flexible and flexible, but it is still charming despite the wind and rain. It is also like the reflection of the orchid and bamboo under the lake, with a kind of changeability.
Feeling of measurement.
And the one under the tree is dressed like a woman, serious and dignified, truly indifferent, noble and cold and arrogant, both inside and outside, so beautiful that no one dares to blaspheme. He is a Bodhisattva who educates people's hearts.
He looks at people as if he has his own ruler.
Xie Mingyue's heart trembled as soon as she saw this woman - God, this is another Xie Mingjin, and this is the Xie Mingjin who always maintains a teaching attitude!
terrible!
——————
"Xie Mingrong." Xie Mingdai muttered silently in her heart, feeling quite unhappy, secretly thinking that she was definitely not the only one who didn't like this person.
Who would like someone who can pretend to be someone who has not smiled for eight hundred years?
Just as she was thinking this, she heard Ming Jin in front of her shout gently and respectfully.
"Sister Rong."
It's so close and gentle that it makes people's hearts melt.
Mrs. Lin turned to look at her daughter, but they happened to see Xie Mingyue, Xie Mingdai and Xie Zhichun's expressions were inexplicably the same, as if they had eaten a plate full of yellow sand.
Lin's two people: "...."
Xie Mingrong still had a straight face, but her brows were tighter, and she just stood indifferently until Mingjin walked off the bridge and walked up to her to salute, but was stunned for a moment when he saw her womanly bun.
Xie Mingrong seemed to know what she was thinking, "I'm married, and it seems you are the last one to know."
The tone was cold.
Xie Mingyueben, who was behind, walked briskly. He felt the strong smell of the beacon fire ahead, so he immediately slowed down his pace, pretending to enjoy the scenery and refused to come over.
As she was doing this, everyone else was also shaking their heads. Even Xie Zhizhen, a little carrot-head, grabbed a flower and touched it, and he was not afraid of touching the flower bald.
Ming Jin was naturally surprised, and even more ashamed, "Sorry, sister, I..."
At that time, she decided not to know anything about the Xie family, which naturally included the Xie family here in the capital.
But I didn't expect that my cousin back then had become someone else's wife.
"Congratulations, you are getting married soon."
After being interrupted, Ming Jin paused and met Xie Mingrong's eyes. After a moment of silence, she smiled softly and said, "Thank you, Sister Rong. How have you been these years? You..."
Compared with people like Xie Mingdai, who had not seen each other for many years, she was obviously more familiar with Xie Mingrong, relatives in the capital. When they met, she did not need too much observation and testing, and her first reaction was always familiarity.
Including for Xu et al.
"He will always be much better than your future husband."
Is this human language?
Xie Mingyue was pretending to be a fool, but she got angry when she heard this. She was about to step forward to confront him, but her wrist was pulled by Xie Zhichun, who warned her not to go up with his sharp eyes.
Because my eldest sister obviously didn't want them to get involved, otherwise she wouldn't have continued to smile and said: "That's for sure, I will be the best match for you."
For a daughter of a noble family, nine out of ten smiles in her life are polite and hypocritical, and the few sincerities are particularly valuable.
She is sincere, but Xie Mingrong is also sincere.
"After Xie Mingrong finished speaking, she turned sideways and passed Ming Jin. The two passed by each other. She walked out and saluted Mrs. Xu and others. There was something going on at the Daofu family today. She couldn't stay long and had to go back early.
It's cold and indifferent, but you can't fault it.
Naturally, Mrs. Xu and others didn't want to stay too long, especially Mrs. Xu. Even if she thought it was normal for her daughter to return home on such a big day, her daughter had always had her own opinion. If she said something was going on, it must be something. In addition, some things had happened since then.
Things had happened, and the relationship between mother and daughter was much estranged. She suppressed the bitterness in her heart, so she could only prepare to be considerate and send him away.
Ming Jin, who was left behind by Xie Mingrong's cold treatment, stood in the hibiscus tree and lowered his eyes. He suppressed a faint sadness and soon calmed down. He turned around and walked towards Xie Mingrong. He wanted to save him, but he saw the manager outside.
I came to report that my uncle has come to the house.
Ming Jin noticed that Xie Mingrong's brows were furrowed, his face had a gloomy look on his face, and he gave himself a cold look.
His eyes were sharp.
Related to yourself?
Who is this uncle?
————————
The eldest son of Uncle Guiqin, now a fourth-rank official, and the future Uncle Guiqin, can be considered to have a good family background and career, and it is not an insult to the eldest daughter of the second wife of the Xie family. As for what kind of person he is, today
It was hard to tell when we first met, but the other party came to visit her during his busy schedule, firstly to accompany his wife, and secondly to meet his wife’s family, showing all courtesy.
This person naturally combines words and deeds. He is very polite, gentle and modest. Although he comes from a superior background, he has no airs. He is very generous and enthusiastic to Xie Mingyue and others, and he is also polite to Ming Jin, but the other party looks at Ming Jin.
It's a little strange, a kind of avoidance and embarrassment.
This time, Ming Jin became indifferent, his aura was infinitely similar to Xie Mingrong's, his brows and eyes were furrowed and distant, and he no longer deliberately got close to Xie Mingrong.
It was like there was something between the two of them.
Generally speaking, the Xie family in the capital had a very good impression of this uncle after sending such anomalies.
Wu Ling's family members were also impressed by this uncle and praised him highly.
The banquet had already been arranged. Xie Mingyue and others thought that Xie Yuan would come back and were very nervous. However, soon the old housekeeper sent a message saying that the Lord was in court to discuss matters and would not return for many days.
Are you not coming back?
Is it really because of official business or other reasons?
"Brother is busy with official duties and can't get away. It's okay. I'll see you when he comes back today. Come, come, come, have a drink..."
At the men's table, Xie Jun was making peace, greeting everyone, and mingling with each other.
It's much better in the women's seat. They are all noble ladies from aristocratic families. No matter how old they are, they are all elegant and personable if they are sensible.
But Xie Mingyue felt that these people were so good at pretending, most likely because there were two people present - the two giant Buddhas, Xie Minjin and Xie Mingrong.
Xie Mingyue secretly muttered: "How can I still eat like this?"
Xie Mingdai and Xie Zhipuru both sneered.
Don't worry, you will definitely be able to eat it.
——————
In fact, this meal was not necessarily unpalatable, because after we were separated, the indifferent Ming Jin stopped thinking and calmed down a lot. His emotions and anger were not visible, and he just ate the delicacies quietly at the dinner table. He didn't eat much, but
At least it won't delay others.
Is it a banquet? If you can't do anything else, then just eat.
Mrs. Xu was the mother of the second house owner. With the head of the house away and Ming Jin being the junior, she had to deal with the situation, so she got up first to toast some older ancestors... The elders were busy, and the juniors
This table was still deserted. Mrs. Xu saw it and found some time to get out and go to Ming Jin and the others.
"Although Mingrong is married, she is about the same age as you. She has not seen you brothers and sisters for many years. We are so close to each other at the same table."
The loving mother's heart was obvious, and she hoped to open up the social circle of the younger members of the clan for her daughter, but Xie Mingrong only treated it silently. Xu, perhaps aware of her coldness, felt a little embarrassed for a moment, and the person who had always been good at dancing was speechless.
Come, at this moment, a soft hand took hold of Xu's wrist that was awkwardly stopped in mid-air.
