After Hongzhu finished talking to Zhu Guida, she saw that there was movement from Mrs. Zhu, so she went over to say goodbye to her. happened to meet Mrs. Zhu who was very talkative, but they were also busy there, and when they saw Li and Hongzhu, they agreed.

Li is a person who treats her well by others, and she can repay ten points by herself, and she was immediately very emotional, and only said: "Mother, Ming'er sent Cheng Wenhan, I'll come over again."

When Mrs. Zhu heard Cheng Wenhan talk about it, she also took the opportunity to instruct a few words, "I still wanted to keep him for a few more days, but I was so relaxed and lazy, but there are many things at the moment, and it is important for him to study, so it is better to send him up the mountain, and only bring him some more things for other purposes." If you don't have it there, take it here. After a pause, he said, "If anyone asks, just say what I said, I am my own grandson, and I can use it without his food." ”

Hongzhu was surprised when she heard this, and she also understood in an instant that this was Mrs. Zhu showing them goodwill. No matter how serious this is, it is rare to hear her say such a sentence right now. Hongzhu smiled in her heart and didn't delve into it.

Li was naturally moved, thanked her, and said that she didn't have to worry about it, she would prepare things well.

Hongzhu also thanked him, and then left with the Li family.

In the afternoon, there are still few people at the restaurant, and occasionally one or two still take a few buns and leave. If it was so deserted in the shop as usual, Zhong was afraid that she would have been anxious a long time ago, but now that these few things happened, she was panicked, and she couldn't even care about business, so she just fidgeted and watched.

Li Hongzhu came back to see him, and after asking a few questions first, Zhong shook his head again. Hongzhu thought about it and went into the back kitchen Zhang Luo, Li turned around and was driven out by Hongzhu, and when he saw that there was nothing to do, he went to talk to Zhong.

"What's wrong with my sister-in-law?" asked Lee, "but what's wrong?"

Zhong smiled bitterly: "I don't know why, thinking about the illness in the city, and thinking about Nanxing, I feel panicked in my heart." ”

Li had no choice but to say: "Nanxing is fine on the mountain, sister-in-law, don't think about it." ”

Zhong sighed and only said, "Let your second brother send Wen Han up the mountain tomorrow morning, so that I can take a look at him." Bring some more medicinal herbs, we are in the city, even if we are tired and sick, there is a way, there is nothing that cannot be done. But he was on the mountain, but he didn't know what to do. ”

"That's exactly how it should be. Li said.

Zhong Shi said again: "You think he has been on the ground for more than ten years, where is there a time to leave me, he is also a conscienceless, he doesn't say that he comes back to see me, even if he doesn't write letters, he doesn't let people take his words...... I know that he is studying for advancement, but he is tired on the mountain alone, and he doesn't know how to survive, so how can I rest assured. ”

Speaking of children, Li also has a lot to say here, so he persuaded her: "I know everything about my sister-in-law." Wen Han is back, and I can't bear him. That is, Hongzhu persuaded me. After a pause, he said: "There is a sentence I dare not say, Sanbao was sick before, and my sister-in-law was too busy to call me and Hongzhu back to help, I responded, but I was also hanging in my heart." I'll just go, but Hongzhu turns around, and I'm afraid that even she will be sick...... I can't deduce this fact. ”

"Isn't it? Zhong sighed deeply and said, "My mother is worried. If it weren't for Nanxing's ambition and willingness to go to Bo for a future, I wouldn't want to force him to go to the mountains to study hard. I am only such a child, and I also wish him to be safe and happy, and have a smooth life. To put it bluntly, now that your second brother has some craftsmanship, and he has finally bought this small shop, he will not have no livelihood in the end. I just want me and your second brother to work for a few more years, earning him a house and asking for a daughter-in-law. When he becomes a family, he will only earn some livelihood in the future, and this life will go on smoothly. ”

Li said: "What my sister-in-law said is true. ”

Zhong Shi opened this head, only to feel all kinds of bitterness and joy in his heart, and he couldn't help it for a while, grabbed Li's hand and said: "He wants to study, I, who is a mother, can't always drag him and don't let him go, so I have to work hard to get up early and earn more money and silver for him to go in." He sighed again, "He's my son, how I don't understand him." I knew that he had been studying for a few years, and he had entered Xishan Academy, and his heart was higher than before, and he couldn't wait to climb the ladder immediately...... Your second brother always says that he is inappropriate, and he has to be beaten up. But I just stopped him. I told Li Er that he had this heart, and I thought that no matter what, everything would be as he wished, so that he could get out of this quagmire. If even his own parents didn't value him and beat him, wouldn't it break his waist and make him a small businessman for the rest of his life......

Li didn't expect to hear these words from Zhong's family, she herself is a little knowledgeable, and she likes to act steadily and steadily, so she feels that this is a little strange.

Zhong Shi saw a point or two, smiled bitterly, and sighed: "I know, your second brother also says that I have a high heart from time to time. ”

Li didn't know how to say it, and admired Zhong's mother's heart, so he just nodded in agreement with emotion at the moment, "It's just that I want my son to become a dragon, which one is not, my sister-in-law is a successful one." I can't think too far now, the Hongzhu sister and brother are both literate and literate, and they are more calculating than me, I just want them to be safe. ”

Zhong was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I was disgusted by his family at the beginning, and then I left my hometown with him and came here, and I really held my breath in my heart. If you say that your heart is high just for the sake of this, I will admit it. ”

Li Shi was slightly moved, reached out and patted her hand.

This restaurant is so big, and Hongzhu can hear a sentence or two in the back kitchen, so it's strange why Zhong suddenly talked about this. I only sighed that Zhong looked shrewd and capable, and when he encountered his son's matter, he also panicked.

She was about to ignore it, but Cheng Wenhan quietly came in and came next to her, and reached out and pinched her arm.

Hongzhu was startled, she turned her head to look, but saw Cheng Wenhan winking at her, snickering secretly. Hongzhu couldn't help but feel funny, afraid that Cheng Wenhan would make a move to make Zhong embarrassed, so he glared at his younger brother and pulled him inside.

Hongzhu asked him in a low voice, "What is it bad for?"

Cheng Wenhan just laughed, shook his head and refused to speak.

Hongzhu didn't know what he was doing, "Why, I haven't cleaned you up in the morning, and now I'm making trouble again, I'm so bold." ”

Cheng Wenhan was threatened by her, and his mouth cursed, before he said: "After you and your mother left, the second uncle chatted with me for a few words, and asked about He Mingheng again. ”

Hongzhu was puzzled when she heard this, "What's the matter with him?" Didn't she still see her, if there was anything bad to ask, everyone left and came to ask you. ”

Cheng Wenhan stared at Hongzhu seriously for a while, and said seriously: "My fair lady, good gentleman." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about" Hongzhu was so frightened by him that she reached out and hit him on the head.

Cheng Wenhan screamed, but fortunately, Hongzhu covered his mouth in time.

Cheng Wenhan glared with a complaining face.

Hongzhu let go of his hand and said viciously: "You still dare to be wronged, and you don't want to think about what you say?

Cheng Wenhan explained in a low voice: "Sister, this is the Book of Poetry, and it is also a serious book to read in the academy, and I haven't failed to learn it well." After thinking about it, he still had the courage to say, "And I'm not young now." ”

Hongzhu couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and suddenly looked at her brother seriously, while sighing unconsciously, her brother also reached the time when he knew this, and on the other hand, he couldn't help but be angry that he pretended to be old to make fun of her.

As for whether he reads the Book of Poetry or not, Hongzhu didn't listen, so he stretched out his hand and slapped him again, telling him not to talk nonsense in the future.

Cheng Wenhan touched his head and sighed: "I really can't be reasonable." ”

Hongzhu couldn't help but smile, and only then did she ask him again: "What do you mean by suddenly reciting poetry?"

Cheng Wenhan didn't want to be beaten, and he didn't want to be entangled with her about poetry, so he quickly said: "The second uncle thinks that He Mingheng has been too good with us recently, and said that although the two families are familiar with each other, others are good, but you can ask him to do things and let him help, and it is also the same as others, so you have to prepare money and silver gifts to ask seriously." It was only after we moved in and became neighbors with him that we became closer. After a pause, she said, "She wondered what he was thinking, and asked me if I knew it." ”

Hongzhu was very puzzled, and her heart jumped when she thought about it, in fact, she also had some doubts in her heart, only recently this matter happened one after another, how could she have this time to think deeply, sometimes she was also worried that her thoughts were different from those at this time, and she was wrong if she couldn't say it, so she was just confused. After listening to Cheng Wenhan's words, she only said at the moment: "She also knows that this is because we have become neighbors, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it is common for the two families to help each other." ”

Cheng Wenhan pursed his lips when he heard this, and said, "Then he is really a good person." ”

Hongzhu was always a little upset when she said these words to her younger brother, so she only asked him, "What did the second aunt say?"

Cheng Wenhan shook his head at this time, and said as a matter of course: "I'm just a child, how can she say anything to me?" ”

Hongzhu thought about it, but blamed Cheng Wenhan for being too clever, and Zhong's words that wanted to trick him didn't succeed, but he noticed it. Hongzhu glared at him, "Call you a spirit." ”

Cheng Wenhan smiled and grimaced.

Hongzhu estimated that Zhong would go to tell her mother about this, and warned Cheng Wenhan not to do much, so she approached the front again, hiding her figure and wanting to eavesdrop.

It happened that the two of them were still chatting about their children, and Zhong was saying: "Now that Nanxing has entered the academy, I just want him to study seriously for a few years, and I don't think about it anymore." Wen Han is a few years younger than Nanxing, and he is also studying now, which is enough, and the future is still far away. It's only a red bead here, you have to plan to get up. ”

Li was stunned when he said this, and after thinking about it, he realized that it was not Hongzhu's marriage. Li Shi glanced at Zhong's expression, and he didn't know how to answer this sentence
