Chapter 780 Reflection
In fact, Aunt Xue had hesitated before stepping over the threshold .
But she finally stepped in.
Because in the past few days, every time she thought of the contents of the letter, she tossed and turned in melancholy, unable to eat or sleep.
Like Mrs. Wang, who was worn down by reality early on, although she also lamented that youth is gone and beauty fades, she did not dwell on it too much.
But Aunt Xue is different.
Because she has a romantic nature and takes good care of herself on a daily basis, time seems to have slowed down for her.
This is God’s favor and love.
But precisely because of this, when the inevitable passage of time finally began to show its power on her, the fear and resentment it brought to Aunt Xue were more than ten times stronger than those for others.
Therefore, although she often mentioned the word "old", she secretly tried every possible way to resist the invasion of time.
So she began to pursue all the most popular things at the time, and was even more radical and bolder than those young women.
Imitation Tang Dynasty style deep V-neck palace dresses, low front and high back embroidered shoes with flower pot soles, flower ropes and golden bells tied around the ankles, and even some items that are only popular in brothels...
As for methods such as flower essence baths, cucumber slices, and egg white applications, Aunt Xue tried them one after another and never missed any possibility.
However, no matter how she fought, the laws of nature still cruelly came.
Half a year ago, when she discovered those fine lines at the corners of her eyes, she felt like the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing.
It took several months before the dazed mood finally calmed down.
However, the earnest letter she received a few days ago unexpectedly broke the scar in her heart.
Are you old?
Am I really old?
If not, why would those lustful men treat me like a piece of trash?
After returning to Rongguo Mansion, she often asked herself in the mirror, and her melancholy and unwillingness grew day by day.
So when Aunt Xue heard that Jia She was going to host a banquet for Sun Shaozong at home this evening, she began to dress up - even though she didn't think she had any chance of appearing at the banquet, she still prepared carefully.
Of course, she didn't really want anything to happen between her and Sun Shaozong, and she was even less willing to share the same man with Li Wan.
All she wanted to do was to show off every bit of her assets so that Sun Jia Erlang would realize that she was not only a respectable elder, but also a woman with charm!
In fact, she had tried a similar approach a few years ago.
But at that time, she didn't have such a thorough understanding of her own thoughts. She just reacted subconsciously, but didn't know why she acted that way.
And now...
She has clarified her motives and is more determined than ever!
…
It turns out that God always favors those who are prepared.
Jia She's sudden departure made Sun Shaozong not stay in the front yard, but enter the Grand View Garden and stay in the Yihong Courtyard where she often went in and out!
After learning of this unexpected change, Aunt Xue immediately found an excuse and rushed over.
After hesitating for a while at the gate of Yihongyuan, she stepped in resolutely.
Just as they reached the center of the courtyard, they saw the door curtain of the main room lifted, first revealing Xiren's surprised face, and then Jia Baoyu hurriedly came out to greet her.
Aunt Xue took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in her heart, and said with a smile: "I said a long time ago that I would bring the things here so that you can choose carefully, but I always forget everything in the end - now I remembered it just now, and I was afraid that I would forget it again later, so I didn't dare to delay any longer."
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he couldn't help but act coquettishly and said, "Then I would rather my aunt stay for a few more days so that she can miss me more."
"Bah! You're so smooth-talking!"
Aunt Xue spat in his face, knowing that Sun Shaozong was in the hall at that moment. If Jia Baoyu pointed it out, she would not be able to go in rashly.
So she waved her hand and ordered without further ado: "You are such a busybody, hurry up and decide on the material so that I can ask someone to make it as soon as possible - otherwise, if you keep delaying, I'm afraid you won't have to wait until spring!"
As he said this, he walked towards the main hall. When he reached the door, he said, "I have been rushing all the way here, and I am sweating all over. But this dress is not breathable, and it is really uncomfortable."
As he spoke, he untied the belt around his neck, pushed the curtain aside and went inside, while taking off the fox fur cloak.
At first, Jia Baoyu didn't think much about it, thinking that his aunt was used to being casual at home.
Besides, Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan are good friends, so it’s no big deal for them to meet each other.
But when Aunt Xue took off your woolen coat, he felt something was wrong.
Aunt Xue usually dresses quite boldly at home, and today she is even more outrageous.
Even if they are close friends, this doesn't seem appropriate.
However, when he hesitated and wanted to stop it, it was too late.
Seeing that Aunt Xue had already entered the main room, Jia Baoyu smacked his lips with a bitter face, and then he could only quickly follow her.
But when Aunt Xue entered the room, she immediately saw a sturdy figure sitting behind the partition.
Her heart couldn't help but start beating wildly again, but she pretended nothing had happened and hung her untied coat on the hook at the entrance of the net.
At this time, Sun Shaozong naturally discovered that Aunt Xue had already entered the room. Thinking that he couldn't avoid her, he simply decided to go forward and greet her.
Who knew that when he walked around the partition, he found Aunt Xue leaning sideways, hanging her cloak on the hook, and she seemed to be unaware of his appearance at all.
Now Sun Shaozong couldn't speak right away, so he could only bow and salute, wanting to wait until Aunt Xue turned around before formally meeting her.
But in this way, Sun Shaozong's lowered gaze inevitably fell on Aunt Xue's profile.
What a swaying S-shape!
Although he knew it was wrong, Sun Shaozong still couldn't help but exclaim in his heart - just the shadow on the ground reflected Aunt Xue's plump and mature figure to the fullest.
To be honest, since Sun Shaozong traveled through time, he has slept with more than a dozen virgin women of all shapes and sizes, and he has met countless women.
But only Aunt Xue could perfectly embody the charm of a noble lady, with her food being rich but not fat, cooked but not greasy.
What is particularly valuable is that this mature woman still retains a bit of innocence.
Plus that skin that looks like a sculpture of ice and jade...
Bah! Bah! Bah!
What on earth were you thinking about?!
Sun Shaozong tried his best to suppress all these inappropriate thoughts, but his pair of evil eyes had already climbed up uncontrollably, taking in every inch of the owner of the reflection.
