Chapter 443 A moment of warmth between mother and son
After Shen Ningning mentioned Fang Qingdai's name, everyone present fell silent.
Everyone looked at Mr. Xie in unison.
I saw that Mr. Xie's calm and handsome face was very calm.
"Ning Ning can come wherever she likes. There is no need to worry about Second Uncle." Second Master Xie said.
The matter between him and Fang Qingdai is in the past, and we can't restrict the children's interactions just for this reason.
After Mr. Xie said so, Xie Suzhi said: "On the day when the tailor comes to the door, Ning Ning, please invite General Fang. Dad will take your second uncle and your brothers out and won't stay at home to disturb you."
In this way . , Fang Qingdai can also feel more comfortable.
Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes and said smartly and playfully: "Why bother, please come home. Aunt Qingdai refused to come to avoid suspicion."
The little girl had already planned what to do.
She smiled and said: "I think I will ask one of my brothers to accompany me, and I will go with Aunt Qingdai to the largest Jinxiu Village in the city to order clothes."
After saying that, Shen Ningning pointed to Xu Jingxi with her little finger: "Just let my third brother accompany me. Anyway, he is free. There are no classes in the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently."
Xu Jingxi was startled, hesitated, and then smiled warmly: "Okay."
Xie Mingan next to him frowned: "The second brother is also free, let the third brother study at home. Second brother will go with you."
Shen Ningning's eyes widened and she said with full force, "What are you free for? You're not free, you're busy!"
She hugged Xu Jingxi's arm and said, "I want third brother to go with me, stinky second brother. Brother, keep busy with your work."
Xie Ming'an held the tea cup and frowned deeper.
There is a kind of busyness that makes your sister think you are busy!
Shen Ningning winked at him and told Xie Ming'an to stop arguing.
It makes sense for her to do this.
Fang Qingdai missed her son, but she was afraid that frequent visits to him would cause gossip in the capital.
Therefore, in the past five years, although the two knew each other privately, Fang Qingdai was very restrained and never took the initiative to interact with each other.
Occasionally they met on the street, and she looked twice at him, fearing that it would affect Xu Jingxi.
Shen Ningning felt sorry for her as a mother, so she made clothes so that she could get along well with Xu Jingxi.
Thinking of this, the little girl shook her head helplessly and sighed.
If Aunt Qingdai wants to see her son, she has to go through her. Who wants there to be no mistress in the mansion?
It would be nice if my mother was here.
Shen Ningning thought this countless times.
It's the end of April, the spring is not dry, and the breeze is gentle.
Shen Ningning and Xu Jingxi took a carriage and arrived outside Jinxiu Villa.
Fang Qingdai received the invitation earlier and immediately agreed. Now, she arrived even earlier.
"Aunt Qingdai~" The little girl was wearing a tender green skirt, like a full green bud under the sun, full of vitality.
Shen Ningning got off the carriage, smiled pink and delicately, and greeted her warmly.
Fang Qingdai's serious face suddenly showed a smile after seeing the two brothers and sisters.
She came over carrying two oil paper bags.
"I just arrived a while ago, and I bought you some candied fruits and apricot cheese in advance. You can use it when you get tired from measuring your clothes later."
Fang Qingdai looked at Xu Jingxi tenderly from the corner of her eye as she spoke.
When Xu Jingxi saw her, she was particularly calm. She politely held her hands and called out: "General Fang."
Fang Qingdai felt bitter in her heart for a moment. Shen Ningning was afraid that she would show it and be seen by people coming and going, so the little girl said in a brisk way The tone broke the silence between the two.
"Let's go in and take a look. I heard that Jinxiu Village has a lot of fragrant silk here this time, and there are two masters who can dye it into purple gold. I want to take a closer look."
Jinxiu Village knew that Princess Funing was coming, so she came early Ready. As soon as Shen Ningning and his party entered the shop, they were greeted by two female clerks with smiles on their faces. All the clerks in the store put down their work and said hello in unison.
"Your Highness, just choose as much as you like. Today, the shop will only entertain you as a distinguished guest." The waiter said with a smile.
She became a frequent visitor to Jinxiu Manor. After she became rich, she ordered clothes here for her grandma and herself throughout the year.
Therefore, Jinxiuzhuang has Shen Ningning's size. The little girl only needs to choose the pattern and color she likes. After deciding, they start designing.
It will take about fifteen days for the new clothes to be delivered to my house.
With the help of Fang Qingdai, Shen Ningning chose four clothes: golden purple, rouge, blue clouds and pistil yellow.
The patterns selected in order are butterflies, magpies climbing branches, auspicious clouds, and eight treasure patterns.
After all the selections were made, Shen Ningning had no intention of leaving. Instead, she turned to look at Xu Jingxi, who had been quietly accompanying her.
"Third brother, I think you also need two new clothes."
Xu Jingxi lowered his head and looked at his brand new robes.
He laughed: "Father sent someone to deliver new clothes half a month ago."
Fang Qingdai looked at Xu Jingxi, her eyes burning slightly.
Ever since he was recognized back to the Xie family, it could be seen that Mr. Xie treated him well.
After all, I took good care of it.
Shen Ningning said confidently: "They are indeed new clothes, but they are too plain!"
"Third brother, take a look at the young men in the entire capital. None of them are wearing purple or blue. Only you are not brown. Black is navy blue, just like the second uncle, he wears dark clothes."
Xu Jingxi was stunned: "Really? But doesn't His Highness often wear black clothes?"
Shen Ningning choked and coughed slightly. Twice.
"Who said that, my brother occasionally wears red clothes?"
After saying that, the little girl folded her arms and used her trump card: "Anyway, your clothes are too plain, I am embarrassed to take you out, next time I will take the second brother with you. "Okay."
Xu Jingxi's expression suddenly changed and she changed her words: "I'll change my clothes too."
Shen Ningning achieved her goal and pushed Xu Jingxi in front of Fang Qingdai: "Aunt Qingdai, please help my third brother choose some clothes." ! "
Every mother likes to buy clothes for her children.
Of course Fang Qingdai knew Shen Ningning's intention of doing this, and she was extremely grateful.
She looked at Xu Jingxi, feeling a little uneasy: "Does Jingxi, the child, also agree to my helping to select him?"
Xu Jingxi said calmly: "Just listen to my sister, I just have to trouble General Fang."
His indifferent and polite appearance made Fang Qingdai confused. Smiling eyebrows and crooked eyes.
"No trouble, no trouble. You usually have to study, so you have to choose comfortable materials."
Xu Jingxi was half a head taller than Fang Qingdai. He stood beside her and watched her carefully choose the materials.
The two exchanged words from time to time, and the guy introduced them enthusiastically.
Shen Ningning sat on a chair to rest, swaying her little feet and seeing this scene, she felt very relieved and happy.
The third brother Xu Jingxi has never experienced the feeling of being taken care of by his mother, and Fang Qingdai also wants to make up for this son in various ways.
I hope this day will be memorable for them.
Shen Ningning was resting when a female waiter's distressed voice came from the door.
"I'm so sorry. Sir, please forgive me. Our store is hosting distinguished guests today. Please come back another day."
The other party's voice was filled with cold anger: "I want to see which distinguished guest is older than me. Step aside!"
