Chapter 34 Gifts
Xiao Mingzhu handed the gift prepared by Mrs. Xu to Lu Ningxi. Lu Ningxi opened it and found a top-grade white jade bracelet inside.

Qu Yuchun took a look with his head, the disdain on his face was shining brightly.

Mrs. Lu laughed directly: "So it's this thing. Third sister, you have to keep it well."

Lu Ningxi asked suspiciously: "Grandmother recognizes this bracelet? Is there anything else to say?"

Mrs. Lu beckoned Lu Ningxi to go over, put the bracelet on for Lu Ningxi with her own hands, and then asked Lu Ningxi to raise her wrist under the sunlight by the window. The sunlight fell on the white jade bracelet, and the light on the white jade bracelet was like running water , crystal clear flowing around the bracelet.After leaving the sunlight, the white jade bracelet returned to its original state.

"It's so strange." Everyone in the room was amazed.

Lu Ningxi also couldn't love her, she smiled at Xiao Mingzhu: "Please also ask Sister Xiao to help me thank Mrs. Xu."

"This is my birthday present for my sister." Xiao Mingzhu took out a small kit and handed it to Lu Ningxi.

As soon as Lu Ningxi took the kit, Qu Yuchun yelled, "Open it and have a look."

"Cousin." Lu Ningxi frowned, it was impolite to open other people's gifts in person.Xiao Mingzhu didn't think there was anything wrong, and said, "Sister Lu San opened it to see if she likes it or not."

Lu Ningxi had no choice but to open the kit in public. Inside the kit was a thumb-sized lotus lotus white jade bead. The quality of the jade was not too white, and the carving on it was not exquisite, but it was small and cute.

Qu Yuchun's face showed a look of "as expected".

Lu Ningxi was afraid that Xiao Mingzhu would be embarrassed, so she said seriously: "I like it very much. Did Sister Xiao carve it herself?"

"Yes." Xiao Mingzhu responded generously.

"Bring it here and let me have a look." Mrs. Lu said, Lu Ningxi passed the jade beads over, Mrs. Lu looked carefully, and asked in surprise: "Sister Ming, isn't your gift too precious?"

Xiao Mingzhu compared the beads on her chest and said, "It's also precious."

Mrs. Lu heard the words and looked carefully, and said in surprise: "Is this a blessing bead carved from white jade bodhi roots?" She was afraid that Mrs. Lu would ask Lu Ningxi to return it, so she hurriedly told her: "Third sister, take it away and turn around. Let the girl make a net for you, and wear it close to your body."

It's not that Mrs. Lu is petty, she has shallow eyelids and can't see good things.It's just that this white jade bodhi root is the best among white jade bodhi seeds. Ordinary bodhi seeds bloom and bear fruit every year, but the bodhi root only blooms once in 60 years, and only once in a lifetime. It is something that can be encountered but not sought after.Women wear it to nourish the body.

Qu Yuchun also asked with a shy face: "Sister Xiao, I wonder if you ever had the white jade bodhi prayer beads..." Mrs. Lu gave her a hard look, and Qu Yuchun shut up reluctantly.

Xiao Mingzhu even took Qu Yuchun's words as a deaf ear, and just heard it.

Outside the door, a girl reported that a guest had arrived, Mrs. Lu took Xiao Mingzhu's hand and put it in Lu Ningxi's palm: "Take sister Ming to meet more friends, so don't make people feel wronged." she."

Xiao Mingzhu felt that Lu Ningxi's hand was stiff for a moment, but Lu Ningxi recovered quickly, and did not make any rude movements such as shaking her hand away.Xiao Mingzhu also took the opportunity to bid farewell to Mrs. Lu, and withdrew her hand from Lu Ningxi's palm knowingly.

"You guys go." Mrs. Lu said, "Yuchun stay here for a while."

"Grandmother." Qu Yuchun had a bad feeling, and looked at Mrs. Lu beggingly.Qu Lu wanted to intercede, but Mrs. Lu gave her a hard look, and could only swallow the words that came to her lips.

In the end, it was Lu Ningxi who begged for mercy: "Grandma, let's go out and wait for our little cousin."

Mrs. Lu nodded.

Seeing Xiao Mingzhu and the others leave, Mrs. Lu turned dark, ignored Qu Yuchun, and said directly to Mrs. Qu Wu: "You started to learn the rules when you were three years old in the mansion, and you have rules when you are four years old. How can you take turns?" It's about how you teach girls, but it's so unbearable."

Qu Yuchun was taken aback, did grandma mean that she had no rules?
Her eye circles turned red all of a sudden, didn't she just tell the truth, why did grandma accuse her like this?

It's all Xiao Mingzhu's fault, how can she be favored by her grandmother more than her granddaughter.

Qu Yuchun put all this account on Xiao Mingzhu's head.

Xiao Mingzhu and the three girls from the Lu family came out and chatted without a word in the porch at the entrance of the main courtyard.

Miss Lu smiled at Xiao Mingzhu in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Sister Xiao, my little cousin is spoiled by my little aunt, don't mind."

Xiao Mingzhu smiled at Miss Lu: "It's fine."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qu Yuchun came out, glared at Xiao Mingzhu with bulging eyes, raised his head and walked in front, as if he didn't want to talk to Xiao Mingzhu.

Xiao Mingzhu didn't mind being stared at, if Qu Yuchun could stare her eyes out of the frame, it would surprise her.

After leaving the main courtyard, Lu Ningxi called out, "Sister Xiao." Xiao Mingzhu tilted her head in doubt, and Lu Ningxi's pace slowed down, and she also slowed down. The two girls of the Lu family guessed that Lu Ningxi Ningxi might have something to say to Xiao Mingzhu, but instead she quickened her pace and immediately distanced herself from the two of them.

Lu Ningxi hesitated again, and explained in a low voice: "Sister Xiao, just now I was not..." She was a little anxious, but she didn't know how to express her most sincere thoughts without making Xiao Mingzhu's heart hurt. Have a grudge.

Xiao Mingzhu was taken aback, and immediately understood what she was referring to. Lu Ningxi was uncomfortable when the two touched hands just now, but she didn't take it seriously: "I know some people are not used to contacting strangers." For people with more severe symptoms, she could just pull on his sleeve and he could tear the entire sleeve off.Of course, she would grab his other sleeve every time.

Lu Ningxi laughed out loud, "I was frightened by grandmother's actions just now." As if wanting to confirm what she said, she reached out and grabbed Xiao Mingzhu's hand and held it tightly. Xiao Mingzhu was taken aback by falling down, but Xiao Mingzhu didn't let go of her hand.

Lu Ningxi raised her eyebrows: "You are nothing like what I thought, I thought you were a girl like a glazed doll."

"It turned out to be made of mud." Xiao Mingzhu answered mischievously.

"Sister Xiao really knows how to joke." Lu Ningxi said: "When you don't smile, I don't think there is anything special about you, but your smile makes me feel infinite vitality. You really are as grandma said. Yan, he is as fiery as the rising sun, I believe we can get along well."

In the past few days, grandma has mentioned her old relationship with Mrs. Xu in front of her, and praised Xiao Mingzhu a few times. She was a little nervous before, fearing that this young lady Xiao who grew up in Xin'an would not be easy to get along with.Seeing that Xiao Mingzhu acted generously and thoughtfully, without a trace of pretentiousness, she really had a cheerful temperament as her grandmother said, and only then did she have the idea of ​​sincerely making friends with her.
