When she returned home at night, Li Shi packed up her baggage for her, and turned out the two bright clothes with good materials, and couldn't help but be stunned, and turned around and asked Hongzhu: "How did you get these clothes? -乐-文-小-say--lxs520-com"

Hongzhu looked at it, remembering the look of Zhu Yanmei's reward when she gave the clothes, and felt a little uncomfortable. She pursed her lips and said, "It should have been obtained from the Zhao Mansion, and my aunt gave it to me casually." Let's leave it there for now, and then change it when we have time. ”

Li made fun of it: "Your needlework, just fool people casually, and give you this clothes in vain, so let me come." ”

Hongzhu's needlework is indeed a bit unsightly, as soon as she heard her say this, she didn't fight, but when she thought about it, she couldn't help but say: "This color and style are too bright and luxurious, I am an ordinary girl, I usually have to work, how can I wear such clothes." ”

Li said: "How old are you, you should dress brightly, as for the style, it is usually not easy to wear, but for the New Year's holiday, who doesn't leave a few clothes for visitors?" After a pause, he said: "But because this is someone else's clothes, you don't like to wear them?"

"No, it's done, and it's not wasted. Hongzhu had no choice but to do so, she had this measure, and she was still very practical.

Li Shi looked at some bits and pieces in it, one of the ceramic dolls was very small and cute, she took it out and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile, "This gadget is so beautiful." But you've always disliked these girly toys, why did you buy them this time?"

My own daughter Li knows that when she is young, her parents are there, some people are used to spoiling her, and she is very naughty, and as soon as her father went a few years ago, Hongzhu changed her temperament and became calm and moderate, and those things that children play with are not touched at all. At the beginning, Li only thought she was sensible, knowing that the family business was difficult and had to be saved, but later on, she really didn't love it, and Li also felt strange.

Hongzhu said casually: "That Cousin Chen bought it, it was originally Zilan who thought it was fun when he saw it, and he bought it if he wanted it." Even if it is given to Zilan, it is not good to miss me, so I will get it here. ”

Li Shi was stunned for a moment, pondered for a while and then said, "Okay, why do you want other people's things?"

Hongzhu said: "I don't look expensive, since I took it, if I am the only one to return to him, wouldn't it show Zilan again." When I turned around, Zilan still made trouble for me, and I was also annoyed, so I accepted it after thinking about it. ”

"That's fine. Li Shi heard that she was reasonable, so he smiled, "Although it is far away, he is also a cousin, and he gave some gadgets to his cousins, just as a gift from him." ”

Hongzhu snorted, "Mother, don't worry about me, I still know how to measure these things." She smiled, "I'm older, don't you still have a scruple?"

Li Shi was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly sighed again, isn't this girl a person who has grown up and can be the master of the house. She thought for a while and said, "This is something that shouldn't have been mentioned to you in the first place, but now I heard what your aunt said, and I was really a little worried." The old lady of her family and her nephew, one of whom carried your aunt behind her back to let you meet outsiders, and the other took your two little girls to play outside...... They, alas, don't know what they have in mind. I'm afraid that you will be deceived by someone because you have seen less. ”

Li has never talked about people behind his back, and he can't help complaining this time. Hongzhu thought it was funny when she heard it, went over and hugged her hand, and said with a smile: "Mother, I know you are worried about me, but I am smart, who can deceive me." ”

Li touched her hair, sighed and said, "No matter how smart you are, you are also a girl...... When you are married, I send you out, and I have a home, I can really rest assured. ”

Hongzhu listened, and inexplicably remembered Zhao Xiao, she is not a simple little girl, she is very sensible, but even if she is sensible, it cannot be said that she is not uncomfortable after she refuses someone...... Uncomfortable is an emotion that cannot be eliminated by reason.

She leaned against Lee, her head buried in her shoulder socket, and wanted to open her mouth to tell her that if she liked someone, she thought him was good...... But we can't be together, so what should we do......

I'm afraid that if she says it, her mother will think she's crazy, right?

The words turned around in her mouth, and she only whispered: "Mother, did you like my father before you married him?

Li's eyes widened, and his face turned red again in an instant, he really didn't expect his daughter to ask such bold words, as if questioning her woman's virtues. She was a little unhappy in her heart, that is, Hongzhu was her daughter, otherwise whoever asked her like this, she would have to make trouble.

She hurriedly said, "You, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Hongzhu shook her arm, softened her voice, and said coquettishly: "Mother, you can talk to me." There are only two of us in the room, and we are not afraid that others will know, and besides, if you don't tell me these words, no one can tell me this...... I don't understand anything, so I'll be fooled. You say that I'm grown up, I'm a big girl, and I want to give me a family affair, but I don't know what kind of person I'm looking for, how do I know if I like it or not, and can I live with that person?"

When Li Shi heard her say this, he also felt that it was so reasonable, but he remembered that he was young and ignorant, and it was difficult to speak.

"Mother, if one day I fall in love with someone and want to be with him, but you all think it's not suitable, what should I do?"

The more Hongzhu talked, the more Li became anxious when he heard it, worried that his daughter had some bad intentions. She hurriedly said: "This daughter's marriage is all agreed by her parents, how can anyone fall in love with him and insist on joining him in a ridiculous matter?

Hongzhu didn't pull this on herself, but said, "Then do you like my father?"

"You kid, don't say anything like it or not!" Li was anxious, and he was also a little embarrassed, "Someone came to propose marriage back then, the two families are so far apart, I haven't seen your father, how, how to like him?"

Hongzhu probably knew what it looked like, but she still asked: "Then you haven't seen anyone else before?" She saw Li's face change, and couldn't help explaining: "Mother, I don't think there is anything here, but there is, you didn't say anything about your family at that time, and you didn't see my father, it's nothing." ”

Li Shi was stunned for a moment, and always felt that his daughter's thoughts were a little weird, "You can't say this to others anymore, it's very unruly, don't listen to it, just when you are uneducated." ”

"Mother, don't bother me. "Hongzhu begs for mercy.

Li thought that if he didn't make it clear, he was worried that his daughter would think more, thinking that she really had a bad past, and it was not as good as her to talk about it carefully, "It's all old things, when you were young, people were not sensible, and they didn't know much, this person's mind was always inexplicable, and now I feel strange when I think about it, who knows what is good and what is bad? What do you like, what doesn't like it? Hongzhu, these are all nonsense, for example, at your age, even if you have some thoughts, you can't do it accurately, and when you grow up, you will change." ”

Hongzhu was surprised in her heart, and still pretended to be okay on her face, "Well, I understand." Mother, you haven't said who it is, who are the people you have seen?"

"I'm from the south, and the customs are more elaborate than here, and my father ...... That is, your grandfather, he takes this rule very seriously, I lived on the embroidery floor when I was a child......" Li remembered the old days, and couldn't help but smile, "There are no foreign surnames in this exchange, and there are only a few relatives who can see them." ”

Hongzhu understood as soon as she heard it, what she could see was probably a cousin, and it was very common for cousins to marry at this time...... Hongzhu thought that her mother had also had these experiences, and she felt strange and a little kind. She thought about it, and then asked, "Mother, don't you have any contact with your mother's relatives?"

Li Shi was silent, "The two sides are so far apart, how can you come and go? Your father had an accident that year, but he sent a letter there, but there was no news later...... There's no other way. ”

Having said this, Hongzhu felt very uncomfortable. She is an outsider and doesn't feel much about these relatives, but they are her mother's relatives, and the relationship is disintegrated and indifferent.

In the past, Hongzhu also asked about her grandfather's family, and Li said a few words every time she brought this topic over. Hongzhu guessed that she still cared a little about what happened back then, otherwise it wouldn't be like this.

Li was reluctant to mention it, and Hongzhu was not reluctant.

But this time Li didn't stop, it seemed that it was really as she said, the red beads were already big, and many things could be heard.

She stroked Hongzhu's hair, "Your own grandmother died young, and later ...... Your grandfather married a stepfamily, and she didn't like me, so she married me to Tong'an, but she just wanted to send me away. Your grandfather rarely paid attention to these things in the family, but he mentioned it to him, and for him, it is true that his daughter will marry when she grows up, and this is the rule. ”

"Even if my daughter gets married, he is also your father and my grandfather. No matter how strict he is, he should remember you, right?" Hongzhu had a vague idea, "Mother, do you want to contact them?"

Li was silent, how could he not want to.

“…… They treat you like that, no matter what the reason, because they don't value it, because they don't care. Hongzhu said, "In this case, why should my mother be sad? You should think more about yourself and live a happy life." ”

Li smiled faintly, "If you are good with your brother, I will be happy." ”

"Mother, I don't want you to just guard us, only look at us. Hongzhu shook her head, her expression became more serious, "My mother always doesn't want to be herself, I will send a letter to my grandfather's family when I go back, ask me to understand clearly, if there is really no reply this time, you will forget them, this letter will be regarded as your memory." ”

Li Shi was stunned, "No need, right?"

"Now I'm in charge!" Hongzhu said flatly, "There is another thing, I didn't mention it before, and I am afraid that you will be sad." But now that my father's affairs have passed, and I am also older, I can't help but think more about you. My mother is still young, and there are still decades to come, do you want to live alone, or do you want to find another person? We have also separated from grandma, and grandparents can't take care of it, so it's up to you to be happy. Mother, if you have time, think about it, I'll make the decision for you!"

When Li Shi heard this, his face changed greatly.
