229 Breaking the Cocoon

In the pavilion, Xu Gulei put down the wine jug in his hand, took out an object from his arms and put it on the stone table in the pavilion, and a white handkerchief wrapped two azure Ruyao wine cups. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He motioned for Xu Pingqi to sit down, but Xu Pingyi just stared at him and didn't react.

He sighed, patted Xu Pingyi's shoulder vigorously, and said, "When you were a child, you liked to run to my study to play with me, hold my legs and let me teach you tea and opera, why, when you grow up, you are so rusty, you are not as good as Liuniang?"

After speaking, he sat down first, and laughed heartily as he poured his wine.

Xu Pingyi also sat down, his hands on his legs weakly, his eyes were empty in the direction of the pond, and he said, "Uncle, everyone says that I am like you, but I am far inferior to you." ”

His voice was very low, and his mood was so low that it made people feel distressed.

A young man with such a proud demeanor, saying such words in such a tone at this moment, the whole person seemed to be low to the dust, and then disappeared into the darkness, without any spirit at all.

Xu Gulei didn't expect Xu Pingyi to be such a reflection, his face changed suddenly, and he said: "What nonsense are you talking about, you are at a good time now, how can you be so low!"

The Dalang he saw when he entered Beijing with Lu Shi and Xu Yu before was still outstanding and magnificent.

How can you become so low and negative now?

He originally thought that their uncle and nephew hadn't chatted for a long time, so he asked Da Lang to talk, and the two best-looking men in the Xu family talked about what they had encountered and felt recently.

But I didn't expect Da Lang to be in this state, what has he experienced these days, how did he become like this!

"Da Lang, what difficulties have you encountered?" Xu Gulei is the youngest son of Old Lady Xu, and he is also a concubine, he doesn't have to worry about many things in the family, he is eleven years older than Xu Pingyi, although he clearly feels Xu Pingyi's low mood at this moment, he can't see the reason for his low mood.

"Uncle, Siniang has fallen into such a situation, I really ......" Xu Pingyi returned to Xu's house and found that the family was very indifferent to Xu Qian's marriage, and even the grandmother who loved Xu Qian the most was reluctant to intervene in this matter.

Siniang used to be the lady in Suzhou City that everyone wanted to marry, but she didn't even know if the marriage that had been engaged could be done.

As soon as Xu Gulei heard it, he knew that Xu Pingyi didn't know what had happened in the Xu family in the past year or so, so he pushed a wine cup in front of Xu Pingyi and said, "There are many things, you don't know if you're not at home." ”

Xu Pingyi's expression was slightly restrained, he held the wine cup, looked at Xu Gulei, and asked, "Uncle, what happened, ...... Can you tell me?"

He went out to study, and his family has always reported good news but not bad news, even the fact that his mother was poisoned and dumb, he only learned about it after his father went to Beijing to report on his work, and the family hid it from him for half a year!

Such an important matter, even Aunt Twenty-one came back to Suzhou to visit his mother, but he didn't know at all!

He regretted that he did not wait for his mother at the bedside, but he also knew that this concealment was a painstaking effort of his parents.

As a child, he can't always go to his parents for theory because of this matter.

Come to think of it, there are many things he doesn't know about besides this.

Xu Gulei nodded, drank all the wine in the wine cup, and said: "Now that you have decided to join the office, your father will treat you differently than in the past, and will let you handle more things, as for the most trivial things in the family, you can't be ignorant......

After finishing speaking, the wine jug in Xu Gulei's hand was empty.

Xu Pingyi's originally dull heart was full of pain at this moment.

He has been protected so well over the years, and everything has been smooth sailing. He took it for granted that the Xu family was so smooth sailing.

There are too many ups and downs that he doesn't know.

How could he be so stupid, so stupid, that what he saw with his eyes and what he heard with his ears was true.

He has been living in a safe "house" for more than ten years, if he hadn't decided to join the company, I am afraid that he would have lived in that "house" for the rest of his life, been protected for a lifetime, and could not see the pain of the person he loved the most for a lifetime.

Just like the insect wrapped in the cocoon, no matter how wind and sun the wind and sun outside, it will not affect the insect inside the cocoon.

Now, perhaps, is the time to tear open this woven cocoon.

On the second day, Xu Guyu and Xu Pingyi set off at the same time, carrying the valuable gifts prepared by the Xu family on the carriage.

After a day and a half of travel, the two arrived in Hangzhou.

When he arrived at Zhang's house, Zhang Xian personally greeted him outside the door, he was dressed in a blue brocade robe, stepped on black boots, and tied his hair with a jade crown. ”

"The virtuous nephew is very polite. Xu Guyu asked the little maid to take the gift, and then entered Zhang's mansion with Zhang Xian.

Xu Guyu first went to meet the old lady of the Zhang family and gave gifts, and then returned to the flower hall in the front yard with Zhang Xian's father and Zhang Xian.

Tea merchants will prepare some tea props in the living room, and the Zhang family is no exception.

The maid has a round figure, her cheeks are tender and can pinch out water, and she can see a little charm between the actions of ordering tea, and Xu Pingyi frowned. The Zhang family is a tea merchant, how can the tea girl who orders tea at home be like this, and there is no elegance at all!

Xu Guyu didn't hide it, and said directly: "Brother Zhang, I don't know if you have heard about some things in the capital?"

Master Zhang leaned on the table, looked at the maidservant who ordered tea, and asked with a smile: "There are too many things in the capital, I don't know which one you are talking about?"

When Xu Guyu heard this, he was extremely dissatisfied. The two have frequent business contacts, and they have always been equal in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and they are extremely familiar with each other, but they are putting on this posture at this moment!

Now it's such a trivial matter, I don't even put him in my eyes, and I talk to him in this tone!

Xu Guyu gritted his back molars and said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, nephew Ziyexian, what I want to say is about Siniang." She was young, and she was induced to do stupid things that she shouldn't have done. ”

He said this, but he was thinking in his heart: Siniang has always been smart, and she would do such a stupid and childish thing? Wasn't she very shrewd when she framed Erniang at that time?

Thinking that Xu Qian first stirred up Erniang's marriage, and now made her own marriage look like this, Xu Guyu was full of disgust for her, and even a little hateful.

If it weren't for her, he, the largest tea merchant in Suzhou, would he be here to look at people's faces in a low voice?

Master Zhang tugged at the corners of his mouth and asked, "I heard that Siniang also went to Bianjing alone?"

"Who is talking nonsense, Siniang is the mother of my Xu family, and her father and mother are in Bianjing, how can she let her enter Beijing alone, she must be escorted to the capital by her family. ”

Xu Guyu was extremely disliked by Xu Qian, but she still had to maintain her image in front of outsiders.

After all, there is both prosperity and loss.

Master Zhang chuckled, obviously disbelieving: "Hehe." ”
