328. Heart knot

Xiao Niangzi is still praising the stone for his ability and willingness to endure hardships: "My man recruited him only because he was willing to work, the salary is lower than that of others, and the work is more than that of others. ”

Xiao Niangzi said while taking Qiu Niang to see the work of Taojing, Qiu Niang stood on the ground and did not move, her eyes staring at the back of the stone, one hand pulling the placket of her chest, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

The stone didn't feel anything, and he didn't throw the bucket down the well, and he dug it for a morning, the well was almost dry, and the ground was full of water, and the well platform didn't need to be used for a long time, and there was still moss in it, and it was slippery and greasy, and the water that came out was also stagnant water, and it had to be cleaned, and the water would come out at the bottom of the well, and the water had to be scooped out again, and the next day, it was the water that could be eaten.

The stone was black and thin, and he didn't know how much he had suffered, he had suffered a back injury, and he had been seriously ill at sea, and if it hadn't been for the Xirentang healing, he wouldn't have been ordered to go back to his hometown to find his wife and children.

Xiao Niangzi pulled Qiu Niang: "Let him do it, if you don't look at it later, give two more money, the window frames are all made up by him, and it turns out that those pieces of wood don't cost at all." ”

Qiu Niang didn't stand or walk, her mouth couldn't open, her feet seemed to be stuck to the bricks, she couldn't move a single step, or the stone got up and stretched her waist, Xiao Niangzi said: "Come and see the owner." ”

Shi still carried a wooden bucket in his hand, wiped his sweat with a rag shirt, turned around and bowed his head and saluted: "Owner." I only saw a plain skirt, I knew it was a woman, I didn't dare to look up, Xiao Niangzi was very satisfied, this is working for a woman's house, not looking for an honest one, kissing and pulling Qiu Niang's sleeves, and thinking about showing merit, Qiu Niang has already opened her mouth: "You, you are here." ”

The wooden barrel in the stone hand fell to the ground in response, rolled twice and rolled halfway through, the two were stunned and did not speak, but Xiao Niangzi looked at it on both sides, she didn't know that Qiu Niang still had a husband, just a widow with some small capital and her daughter to find a living.

There are many capable women in Suizhou, and the family that has lost her husband supports her family, it is not surprising that Qiu Niang is like this, Xiao Niangzi is not familiar with her yet, and there are some things that are not easy to ask, how do you know that the recruitment has recruited her man.

The two are not happy, the man is happy, but Qiu Niang did not show a little joy, Xiao Niangzi took Qiu Niang's salary, if this man has money, where do he still need to do hard labor: "Yo, it turns out that I know, then you say, this little worker should also eat, I'll go and eat." ”

The kitchen has been sorted out, Xiao Niangzi took charge of the spoon herself in order to save a meal money, and wanted to take Qiu Niang to see it, but she didn't want to meet the stone first, put these two conversations, walked around quickly, stretched out her ears to listen to two sentences, but there was no sound in it, her mouth snorted, she went to the kitchen, and called the workers to eat.

Shi Gui watched Qiu Niang go to the new house, went around the street, bought some bits and pieces to use in the future, and unconsciously walked to the women's street, she hadn't talked to Ye Wenxin for a long time, walked to the women's school, first heard a laugh inside, knocked on the door and entered, the girls inside were dancing Baisuo.

Ye Wenxin lifted her skirt and tucked it into her belt, and her hair was tied into a long braid, as soon as she jumped up, the velvet flowers tied on the tips of the braid moved, and several girls wearing blue and white flower cloths reported her number.

Ye Wenxin's face was flushed, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and when he saw Shi Gui, he stopped, handed the hundred ropes made of colored ropes to the next girl, stroked his placket and panted while saying, "Why are you here now, the restaurant is not busy?"

Shi Gui hasn't told Ye Wenxin about this yet, the two of them are busy with their own things, it turns out that they are opposite each other day and night, and there is no moment when they are not together, and if they have any ideas, they will come out together, and now that they think about it, it seems that they haven't seen each other for many days.

Ye Wenxin pulled her upstairs, and she had to take a break after walking up two steps, and she was excited about Shi Gui: "I jumped twenty times in a row today, and I have never had it before." ”

Ye Wenxin was not an active girl in the boudoir, only the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting were touched by the tips of her fingers, dancing Baisuo and playing the top and kicking the keys, she didn't know the same, but she still learned it in the women's academy, I was afraid that these girls would sit for too long and be in poor health, it was Mrs. Ji who thought of the way, she told Ye Wenxin, her own daughter is also like this, she has not been afraid of her being naughty since she was a child, she is afraid that she will not be naughty.

It's no wonder that Princess Daorui can fight Qianqiu like that, standing on the Qianqiu board, she can jump straight down, and Mrs. Ji also said: "It's just that her body is stronger than others, so I don't have to worry so much." ”

"Even the green calyx has been practiced, sweating, I feel that my body is much happier, there are a few people who have had a bad menstrual period, after listening to Mrs. Ji's words, and then eating brown sugar ginger water, it has gone a lot, Mrs. Ji saw that I was weak, so I asked me to give it a try. Ye Wenxin led Shi Gui into her study and made Shi Gui a cup of hot tea.

She is weak, she is afraid of both cold and heat, and when the weather is hot, her body is cold, but the heat in her body cannot be dissipated, and she can't eat ice, and she has to drink hot.

Ye Wenxin's study, the table was full of pen and paper, Shi Gui glanced at it, and there was a map of Zhangzhou on it, marking the villages, towns and townships, Ye Wenxin saw her and said: "I will go to Zhangzhou in August, and my cousin will accompany me." ”

Ye Wenlan still wanted to go to Xirentang, but Song Yintang lost interest, he didn't want to go to sea like Ye Wenlan, but wanted to run a women's school with Ye Wenxin.

The two had a few long conversations, Song Yintang had never talked about Ye's affairs in front of others, and he didn't explain everything to Ye Wenxin, but he sighed that his mother had suffered all her life, and she had never been happy one day, and it was not only the old lady Song who was afraid of people, but also the Ye family herself.

He read a lot and listened to a lot in Suizhou, and also read the rebellious books of the Yan family, these books could not even be printed by Mrs. Wu's printing house for her, and could only be hidden in the women's school.

Mrs. Ji sighed: "These words can be fulfilled after another three or five hundred years, and now these are scattered, which not only persecuts the eldest sister, but also harms the second sister, so we have to know about it ourselves, and we must not spread it." ”

How do you know that Song Yintang felt very right when he read it, with what he had suffered, it was really as written in Yan's manuscript, then the Ye family didn't have to hate himself for taking on a false name for the rest of his life, and he didn't have to feel sorry for Song Siyuan for the rest of his life.

Ye Wenxin only said that no one in the world can understand, even the woman herself is afraid and does not understand, just like the wife of the political envoy said, messing up the ethics of the norm, but he didn't expect that Song Yintang could understand, not only understood, but sighed and told her that she would go to the countryside with her to run a women's school.

In this world, women are still ridiculed for running women's schools, not to mention that Song Yintang is a famous official like him, he really did this, and then he will not be allowed by Shilin in the future, don't think about becoming an official and taking a career as an official.

Song Yintang had made up his mind, Ye Wenxin said to Shi Gui, Shi Gui's eyes widened: "I didn't expect ......" I didn't expect Song Yintang to have such courage, Song Zhimei still has a few months to give birth, he made up his mind at this time, that is, he really wants to do this.

"Although my strength is thin, I have two fists and feet, so I can't hold up the sky, and I can still shield you from the wind and rain. "There are some things that it is much easier for men to come forward than for women to come forward, Song Yintang and Ye Wenxin talked with candles and nights, Ye Wenxin also wanted to persuade him, but he took the idea, and wrote a letter to Mrs. Song: "I have made up my mind, what is the use of reciting scriptures and burning paper with an empty coffin, it is better to do some practical things." ”

Shi Gui looked at Ye Wenxin's autumn-like eyes glowing, knowing that she was very happy, but he couldn't open his mouth to tell her about his bad things.

Ye Wenxin pushed the teacup in front of her: "You must have a difficult decision when you come to me, there is anything we can't say between us, you hurry up and say it, I can quickly make up my mind for you." ”

Shi Gui held the cup and told Ye Wenxin about what Shi Dad brought to Yu Pozi, Ye Wenxin lowered his eyebrows for a moment: "Are you thinking, it's similar to what happened to me, and you want to ask how I decide?"

Ye Wenxin smiled and reached out to pinch her cheek: "It's strange that you have lost a lot of weight these days, I saw at first glance that something big happened to you, it was for this." ”

Baisui washed the apricots, knocked them down from the tree in the women's school, put a lot in the kitchen, washed a dish and sent it up, the red, red, yellow and yellow are good-looking, Ye Wenxin pinched one: "If it were me, I wouldn't forgive Mrs. Yu, but I might as well forgive your father." ”

Stuffed a red apricot into Shi Guihe, looked at her stunned, and nodded her forehead: "You also know that your father is hard, and if you don't redeem it, you won't be filial, otherwise it won't be difficult to decide." ”

Shi Gui sat for a while before he said, "Yes, I can only take myself out." That's why she is so angry, people in the bureau, not because she thinks clearly, she can not be angry, let her swallow her anger and live under the same roof with Mrs. Yu, it is no longer possible, if Qiu Niang plans to endure it, she can't blame, but she can't open the door to welcome Mrs. Yu in.

No matter how ugly the words are, Shi Gui jumped up and put down the teacup and went to the new house to find someone, but when she arrived at the place, Qiu Niang was gone, Xiao Niangzi was sweeping the floor with a broom, and saw her smiling greeting, the words came to her mouth, and she swallowed it hard, and her face was full of flowers with a smile: "She went to her house, and she has seen all the work here." ”

According to Shi Gui's sex, I have to look at it again, and I don't have a heart at this time, so I hurried home, and went to the kitchen first, she Ah Zhenniang was burning the stove, a chicken and a duck, and the white porridge in the pot was also stewing.

Ah Zhenniang's accent is much heavier than Ah Zhen, and more than half of what she said Shi Gui didn't understand, but she laughed, and said congratulations to Shi Gui again and again, pointing to the chicken and duck, and pointing to the bacon hanging on the beam of the house and the swimming fish raised in the basin.

She was stunned, Qiu Niang came in with her sleeves rolled, her eyes were still red, as if she had just cried, and said to Shi Gui: "Hurry up and give me a hand and clean up the dishes, so that your father can eat a hot meal quickly." ”

Seeing that Shi Gui was still stunned, he stuffed a knife in her hand: "Cut the bacon into a qiē, and then steam it for rice, while it is still early, eat so that he can go back early." ”
