273. Fascination
Mingyue left in a hurry, she didn't even say a word to Shi Gui, deliberately didn't look at her, only greeted Xizi, took the cake from Qiu Niang's stall, and swallowed her saliva: "It's so fragrant, the ship didn't leave the port, so I was all asked to eat it." β
He was in a hurry, he came here to deliver something to Xizi, Wu Qianhu was going to take office a few years ago, it was November at this time, he had to hurry up on the road, there were still some things to hand over, that end was all arranged, and he couldn't just wait for Mingyue alone.
When Qiu Niang heard him say this, she rubbed her hands: "It's too late to prepare, you should go to the restaurant to buy some." "She is really worried that Mingyue will not be able to eat enough on the boat, and the people who run the boat are similar to those who are soldiers, so don't think that you can pad your stomach on time when you go out, and bring some dry food on your body to be prepared.
Qiu Niang was in a hurry, but Mingyue was embarrassed, and waved her hand again and again: "I didn't mean that, can you still be hungry for me?"
His baggage contains the autumn clothes and winter clothes made by Shi Gui for him, and everyone else says that Suizhou is a hot summer weather all year round, and Mingyue is a body, and he doesn't have to wear autumn clothes, so before he left, he took the autumn clothes and winter clothes out to give them away, and he didn't need them anyway, so he might as well give them to his comrades.
Mingyue coveted his winter clothes for a long time on the bed, Shi Gui took a lot of effort to make it, stuffed a lot of new cotton in it, washed and dried it fragrant and warm, and made a double layer for him, he had just worn it for a few days, where was he willing to give, he put all the things in the package, and the mattress was not covered, and he stepped on the shoes made for him by Shi Gui on his feet, and walked away in a hurry, without looking back.
Xizi followed forward and ran two steps, and stopped, he knew that the family was going to Suizhou, Mingyue also told him, saying that he could take care of everything if he went first, and when they went to Suizhou, they were not afraid of being bullied if they were unfamiliar with the land.
Shi Gui stood and watched for a long time, Mingyue didn't say a word, and went to Suizhou, which really surprised her, Mingyue is such a personality, just treat you well, and she will never say it, she lost face when she said it, saying that he was awkward, and he did not say a word, he left if he wanted to, and he didn't drag the mud and water at all, if he really ran to Shi Gui in advance to ask for an understanding, how could Shi Gui not let him go.
Xizi said endlessly, and told Qiuniang Mingyue why she wanted to go to Suizhou: "The eldest brother said that he is too young to survive others than his qualifications, so it is better to go out and go around, and he will be promoted in the future." β
Mingyue was the first to stand up, Wu Qianhu naturally remembered his goodness, when he arrived at the ground, he was a small flag, and he was in charge of ten people under his hands, if he could make meritorious contributions, he could rise again, and it would be the same everywhere, mention his own people first, and if he could put it away, he would naturally have a way to pick it up.
Qiu Niang nodded when she heard this: "Your eldest brother is an ambitious person." "It's rare to be so young, Qiu Niang talked to Xizi carefully, because she was talking about Mingyue, Xizi was very willing to talk about it, and told Qiu Niang everything he knew.
Qiu Niang listened to the tears falling straight down, although Mingyue did not mention that his mother remarried, but said that his father was killed by water bandits, and told SΓΉ Xizi that he would catch water bandits in the future, no matter which piece he was, this person should be killed, which is both revenge and meritorious service.
Qiu Niang knew in her heart that Mingyue had no father and no mother, she was a naked body, she was a little Taoist priest to a big-headed soldier, and now she is not a soldier, she is a sesame mung bean official, and she feels that he really has nothing to say.
The first is willing to fight, Qiu Niang originally felt that it was better to have a good birthday, and when she really set up a stall with the green calyx, she realized that her daughter was right, and she would have saved money by going to the stall in the town to sell wontons early, and she didn't have to let her daughter be a girl.
The second thing is that there is no mother-in-law, Qiu Niang has suffered all the hardships of Yu Pozi, her daughter is a strong temper when she is young, looking at her tame, but in fact she has the strongest temper, and Yu Pozi can be hard to not let her go at all, she is bold and hard-tempered, if she marries a mother-in-law, how can there be a peaceful life at home.
The third thing is the most important, Mingyue puts Shi Gui in her heart, Qiu Niang can't see it, only her daughter doesn't seem to have opened her mind, if you are interested in each other, it is the best family affair.
She listened and looked at her daughter at the same time, she was a child with an idea, a little bit of a big idea, she thought about what she wanted to do, she did a lot of work at home, mowing grass and feeding cows, carrying firewood and sprinkling, she couldn't count on Mrs. Yu, but her daughter could help her.
At that time, I was only staggering and able to walk, and I already knew what things could help and what things could not help, and never did anything wrong, at that time, Qiu Niang secretly thanked the Bodhisattva, although she had no children, she could be such a sensible daughter.
When she has Xizi, Shi Gui still has to lead her younger brother, Qiu Niang spins and cooks and picks vegetables, Shi is busy from morning to night in the field alone, although it is a small thing like cutting grass and feeding cattle and sheep, she can also do it properly.
What time does it start in the morning, what to do first and then what to do, there is a score, and now it is the same, Qiu Niang also thought about it once, isn't this daughter still a person with a background, when the children in the village are playing together, she is like an adult.
Now that she can write and calculate, she is more and more afraid to make ideas for her, she is such a personality when she is young, but she wants to mention that Mingyue is very reliable, but she is afraid that her daughter will think that she is talking about matchmaking, but it is not good, this girl has only eaten soft and not hard since she was a child.
Qiu Niang didn't mention it, but Ye Wenxin mentioned it once, the two of them were still together at night, and there was a green calyx Qiu Niang Xizi sleeping in the west wing, the lamp was dim, and this Shi Gui was still staring at the makeup box, which had the silver lock given to her by Mingyue, frowning slightly, and feeling a little uncomfortable after being surprised.
Ye Wenxin put down the needle and thread, rubbed the corners of her forehead, looked at her and smiled: "What, you regret it again?"
Shi Gui knew what she said: "I don't regret it, but I have some ......" I can't say something, Mingyue didn't come to ask her, she left regardless of it, she couldn't put it down in her heart.
Ye Wenxin knew that she was troubled, and she couldn't even laugh anymore today, so she simply said: "Don't worry, whether it's good or bad, look at it later, since he is willing, let you think about it more, if you don't want to, you don't have to go to Suizhou." β
Shi Gui thought of what Mingyue asked her, now or later, he knew that he couldn't now, he thought that he could still in the future, biting his lip, he actually showed a little smile, his eyebrows and eyes softened, put his heart aside, and asked Ye Wen about the customs of Suizhou.
Shi Gui probably knows something, this place is not far from what she knows, Suizhou is the same, it is said to be by the sea, that place is still hot, think about it, you still have to ask to understand, you have to settle down.
The Ye family has always wanted to intervene in the shipping business, and has told the Yan family many times, there are also five or six ships here, Ye Wenxin doesn't like these foreign objects, although they are ingenious, they are too ingenious, and they lose nature, but Ye Yiqing's house has a lot of Western gadgets, and there are also albums and albums, she has seen some, so she said more with Shi Gui.
"Westerners are not allowed to go out of Suizhou, and the government does not issue documents, so Westerners can only operate in Suizhou, relying on the mountains and the water, and Suizhou is close to the sea, so it is natural to do maritime business. Ye Wenxin said the last sentence, Shi Gui picked what he could ask and asked, only then did he know that Westerners are a general term, shipping is developed, and some people will naturally come in when they go out, and the so-called Westerners are people with different noses and deep eyes.
Shi Gui understood as soon as she heard it, this is a foreigner, but I don't know where it is, she heard from here or from Ye Wen's heart that there is such a piece of land, her heart became more and more fascinated, and she blinked on the pillow: "I don't know what kind of tone the Westerners speak." β
Ye Wenxin laughed: "There is also a dialect in one place, what I said, what the old lady said, is not the same as the two cousins." Ye Wenxin said Yangzhou dialect, the old lady is from Yanjing, Yu Rong Zezhi has a Jinling accent, Ye Wenxin looked at Shi Gui after speaking: "You are different, I listen to the old lady like someone there." β
When the old lady Song got married, she brought several houses, some married and some married, half of the old people in the house were around the old lady, the Song family said more official words, and the girls deliberately learned to speak her native accent in order to please the old lady, the better she spoke, the more she could wait in front of her.
Shi Gui didn't think about this, she didn't think about what the Westerners said, since she came here, she has lived a very hard life, and she can't use it at all, she still relies on hardship and cleverness, if one day what she learned can be used?
Shi Gui originally wanted to go to Suizhou, but at this time, she didn't think about it, she had to see and see, if she could really become her own child, she also hoped that she could stay in a place that was more tolerant of women.
Yan and everyone followed the boat out to sea, but because of the language barrier, everything had to be translated, and the level of translation was very limited, and the translation of those literary and historical books that interested her, the translation could not translate out the Chinese allusions, and could not accurately explain the meaning in the Western language.
Although there is a lot of space written, but most of them are customs, Westerners and Westerners are also different, every day and a place are different, people look at each other and there are subtle differences, she has a book is more specialized, which writes how Westerners eat and how the house is, and also left a portrait wearing a Western dress.
In addition, he also deliberately wrote about the etiquette of Western women, which is very different from the local customs, and has a lot of envy for them.
Ye Wenxin also deduced, picked up some of what Yan had written, and then said something he thought, the two of them chatted a lot unconsciously, Ye Wenxin spent the time not early, and nodded to her: "Hurry up and go to sleep, Ming'er still has to prepare for the Winter Solstice Festival." β
Shi Gui couldn't sleep for a long time, feeling that his heart and body were light, he closed his eyes and was still thinking about Suizhou, Ye Wenxin tuckled the quilt for her, seeing that she hadn't slept yet, and chuckled: "Hurry up and sleep, maybe you can still dream." β
Shi Gui really had a good dream, dreaming that he could live with his waist straight, thinking about things for more than ten years, once it came true, the dream was full of honey, sweet and fragrant, and when he woke up, the sky was already bright.
