Zhu Boxiu pondered with a calm face, stared at her for a while, and then said, "That's not impossible." He smiled faintly and pointed to Hongzhu, "You are a restless person, otherwise you wouldn't have made trouble with the old lady and my mother." Now it seems that Wen Han is also like you, and you have to go to the academy if you have no head or brain. ”

Hongzhu raised her eyebrows, and replied with a smile: "Brother Boxiu, I am still your cousin and cousin, you are sorry to say this." ”

Zhu Boxiu was unmoved, and only said: "Okay, if I didn't know that this kinship is constantly cut, I won't say anything to you right now." You asked me to help, yes, but I have a request. ”

Hongzhu really didn't understand what he could say, and was a little curious, "What request?"

Zhu Boxiu said: "Do you know that my third uncle also studied in the academy for half a year?"

Hongzhu nodded, she had heard her mother mention it. It was about ten years ago, when the reputation of Xishan Academy was not as big as it is now, and there was no entrance exam, but Cheng Guitang was already a talent, and even Hongzhu was two or three years old. This has a family and a business, he didn't expect to go to Xishan Academy, only one day by chance I heard that there are some ancient books collected by Jiang Laoshan in Xishan Academy, as well as some old friends of Lao Shanchang, and then there is the Zhao family's donation, to be honest, it is these books that make the academy gather the aura of Mantongan.

Cheng Guitang doesn't have much spiritual knowledge in his career, but he is a complete bookworm, and when he hears those books on the mountain, he yearns for them, and he can't wait to fly away immediately. The old man Cheng in the family recognized the same as studying, and listened to his youngest son's wishes, and personally sent him to the academy. Subsequently, Cheng Guitang stayed in Xishan Academy for half a year. Later, Mr. Cheng fell ill, and he dropped out of school and returned home.

Zhu Boxiu looked at her and said, "I heard about it when I was in the autumn...... At that time, the third uncle was a diligent man, he loved books, and there was a Zhiqin library in the academy, if he didn't get classes at that time, he would almost eat and live in it...... I copied a box of books. ”

When Hongzhu heard this, what didn't he understand, Zhu Boxiu was thinking about Cheng Guitang's box of books. Hongzhu also remembered that Cheng Guitang did have such a box of books left. At the beginning, Cheng Guitang was in a hurry, and everything was in a panic, but later Li was sick again, and many things were still packed by Hongzhu. But there was such a Nanmu box, Li struggled to get up and tidy up, and Hongzhu refused to help her, so she cried alone in the room while cleaning up......

"Now that there are more students in the academy, many ancient books in the library have been put away, and some of the remaining ones are mostly copied by others, and there are always such and such scattered omissions. Originally, I didn't want to go to Mr. to borrow it every day, but after thinking about it, I remembered that the third uncle still left these books. Zhu Boxiu was also straightforward, "You let me transcribe those books, and I will help Wen Han take the entrance exam." ”

Hongzhu frowned, only to feel that his matter seemed a little strange, and after thinking about it, he said: "Brother Bo Xiu wants to transcribe, even if he doesn't meet Wen Han, he can mention it, what kind of requirement is this?"

Zhu Boxiu said "um" and said, "You can just agree to it." ”

Hongzhu's heart moved, and said with a smile: "I can hear what you say, and I will ask my mother when I turn around, I don't know if my father has this book, even if he does, I don't know if I keep it." In the end, she didn't agree lightly, so she could only answer him like this.

Zhu Boxiu was not surprised, nodded, then took the medicine and drank it with a frown, and handed the empty bowl to Hongzhu.

Hongzhu took it, understood that this was an eviction order, and left with a smile.

After cleaning up, I went back to the room and found that the candlelight was still slightly on, Li was already asleep, and there was still some noise on Cheng Wenhan's side. Hongzhu went over to look at him, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Cheng Wenhan sat up from the bed and leaned against the head of the bed, and asked softly, "Sister, are you going to get married too?"

Hongzhu asked strangely: "What nonsense?" Glancing at Li's side, she thought about it and asked again: "What are you talking about?"

Cheng Wenhan shook his head, "My mother didn't say anything." But I have eyes to see and ears to hear. I saw that my mother liked Brother Nanxing a lot, so she asked me a few words, asked me how he was in the school, how his temperament was, and asked me if I liked him. ”

Hongzhu suddenly felt a little helpless when she heard that Li had these actions behind her back, it can be seen that her mother likes Li Nanxing for not a day or two, although Hongzhu said to her harshly before, but it is impossible to completely abandon Li's thoughts. Tonight, Second Uncle Li asked Li Nanxing to send them back, if it was usual, she wouldn't feel anything, she was very calm in her heart, whatever he wanted. But right now, does she have a string in her heart, for fear of saying something wrong and doing something......

She was silent for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she looked at Cheng Wenhan's little appearance that she was trying to suppress her curiosity, and couldn't help but feel funny again, so she deliberately didn't explain anything, and asked him: "Then what do you think of him?"

Cheng Wenhan pretended to be stern and muttered for a while, and said seriously: "It's not good to be a classmate, I don't know if I'm a brother-in-law." ”

Hongzhu couldn't help laughing, raised her hand and knocked on his head, and said, "Okay, give me all the nonsense." Without a brother-in-law, my mother just has nothing to do and wants to gossip with you. I'm going to wait for you to grow up and raise your sister for the rest of your life. ”

Cheng Wenhan touched his head and looked at Hongzhu and blinked, and teased: "Sister, if you really can't get married, I'll raise you." ”

Hongzhu glared at him, "I remember what you said, hurry up and go to sleep." ”

Cheng Wenhan grinned, and then lay down.

Hongzhu was also busy for a day, her whole body was sore, so she restrained herself and relaxed her movements, climbed into bed and fell asleep, and soon fell asleep.

On the morning of the second day, the restaurant still made some dim sum and sold it, but it closed just after noon, and went back to prepare for the New Year. Li's Hongzhu rushed back to Zhu's house, and immediately got busy without a break.

This year, the second uncle Zhu Guifang's family did not come back, there were so many things in the Zhu family, and Li's Hongzhu often ran out in the past two days.

Because of this, Mrs. Zhu got angry early in the morning, stood in the courtyard with a cane and scolded, "Everyone is lazy and lazy, when have you been doing your work, and you still don't do your work? If you have a headache and brain fever, you will lie on the bed and lie down on the body, all of them are lazy and sick! I am still more alive than you when I am not dead, do you want me to use crutches to buy New Year's goods and clean up the house?"

Even Zhu Guida didn't let go of this, but the most blamed thing was Jiang's, as a housemother, she lost her temper and didn't want to work before the New Year, which was really too much.

Mrs. Zhu scolded again: "If you don't want to do it, go back to your mother's house quickly! My Zhu family can't afford such a noble daughter-in-law!"

That's a harsh statement. After a while, Zhu Guida pulled Jiang out of the room. Hongzhu looked at her expression, but she was cold and indifferent.

Mrs. Zhu snorted coldly, then put a stool in the yard, and began to support them to work, let Zhu Guida and Zhu Boxiu go to prepare sacrificial utensils, Jiang's Li and Biyun went to cook under the stove, Hongzhu and Wenhan went to the courtyard to sweep, Zilan went to cut paper and paste windows, and they were all busy.

Because of the two surnames in the end, the Cheng family had to sacrifice their ancestors only once. Fortunately, the past two years have also been used to it, the Li family has already entrusted the Zhong family, and asked her to buy a copy of her family when she bought New Year's goods, and their Cheng family has a simple New Year, so there is nothing missing.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the Zhu family set up a sacred table to worship the ancestors, and the hall was cleaned up neatly and neatly, and the ancestral tablets, incense burners, and chicken and pork were placed on the table.

After a qiē was placed, the Zhu family began to worship their ancestors, Mrs. Zhu was in the first place, followed by Zhu Guida, and then Zhu Boxiu, because Zhu Boxiu's leg was still injured, and Zhu Sanbao was too young, so the Jiang family stepped forward to take care of one or two, and finally Zhu Biyun and Zhu Zilan. Everyone passed the ceremony in a dignified and serious manner, and Mrs. Zhu solemnly said a few major events of the Zhu family to the ancestors of the Zhu family, and naturally mentioned Zhu Biyun's marriage.

And the three members of the Cheng family also set up an offering table in the courtyard to worship their ancestors, and when it was ready, the Zhu family ate Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the hall, and Hongzhu they simply ate in the room.

During the night vigil, the two families stayed in the hall together, and there were snacks brought back from the restaurant by red beads on the table, as well as melons and fruits, in order to reduce sleepiness, everyone had to talk. During the Chinese New Year, even Mrs. Zhu lost her bad temper in the past, and laughed all night. When the child passed, Mrs. Zhu was too old to go to sleep first, Jiang was sick, Zhu Boxiu injured his leg, and the young Zhu Sanbao also went back to the room.

Hongzhu didn't want Li and Cheng Wenhan to keep guarding, so she brought thick clothes to cover them, so that they could sit and take a nap for a while to recuperate. She was the only one who was awake and talked to Zhu Guida and the Zhu sisters from time to time, but she was still sleepy in the second half of the night, and she fell asleep after sitting on a quilt with Zhu Zilan.

On the second morning, Hongzhu was woken up by Li to welcome the new year. After everyone washed and cleaned up, the juniors gave New Year's greetings to the elders, and the elders gave the juniors red envelopes, and the lively morning passed.
