24. Live with a rival in love
The maid Bai Qian, who was standing behind Li Weizhu, naturally knew what her young lady was upset about, and she didn't dare to say anything at this time, beads of sweat came out of the roots of her hair, and there seemed to be a fire burning in her heart. Seeing that his young lady didn't speak, the fine sweat on his forehead gathered into beads of sweat the size of beans, which slowly slipped down the junction between his cheeks and black hair.
It was not Li Weizhu who spoke, but Zhou, "Younger than you, she is really a little girl." Zhou Shi slowly spoke, "I've come from afar, I'm tired along the way, it's better to rest early, there are some things, wait until the master comes back, and then take your time." ”
Old Madam Zhao glanced at Zhou, and her eyes fell on Zhou Weiyue's body again, "What is there to talk about, they have exchanged tokens, issued a marriage certificate, and just waited for the day to get married." She knew that Zhou's initial plan was to kiss and kiss, Mrs. Zhao didn't like this idea, when she was in the countryside, she had seen her cousin and cousin get married, and gave birth to an idiot, she still remembered that the doctor said that if the cousin and sister got married, the child born was not smart to the extreme, or there was a congenital deficiency. Later, I also saw a pair of cousins and sisters get married, and the child born was born with six fingers, so I remembered the words of the doctor back then, and the long sigh was still in her ears, Mrs. Zhao would rather her great-grandson be healthy, and not risk having a deficient grandson far away.
Even if Li Weizhu was still thinking about not being able to practice medicine in her heart, she was still a little shy when she heard everyone talk about her marriage, and she couldn't sit still on the Taishi chair, so she picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea in disguise.
Zhou Weiyue inevitably looked at Li Weizhu again, if she had elders in charge, she would not be able to get married, and she would have to sit in the hall at this time, obviously ashamed, but she couldn't leave. Zhou Weiyue thought of her father, although her father couldn't help her, if she was to propose marriage, it wouldn't have come to such a point. When you think about it this way, you have a subtle sense of superiority.
Zhou looked at Li Weizhu, if it was her niece who was flushed on her fair face, she might have already started to joke at this time, just because it was Li Weizhu, seeing her shy appearance, she felt a burning feeling in her stomach, and only hoped that the marriage contract would come later, "After all, Miss Li has not yet reached the wedding date, and the date set in the marriage book is after the marriage." ”
"Then a little earlier. Mrs. Zhao said, after saying this, "Also, since you have to advance it, you need to draw up a good charter." ”
Do you want to get married?
Except for the old lady, the other three people have different thoughts, and the entrance to the Ming Qian Longjing has a bitter meaning in his mouth, Zhou Weiyue quietly glanced at his aunt, even Zhou's family could not maintain a calm expression, and his face was almost tense, originally wanted to drag it out, but the old lady actually meant to advance?" I'll let people pack up and get out of the guest house first. ”
"What else are you cleaning up in the guest house?" the old lady said directly, "There is still an empty house in my courtyard, just let Weizhu and I live together." After finishing speaking, he smiled at Li Weizhu and said, "The little girl is well-behaved and clever when she looks at it, and I am happy when I see it." ”
Zhou Weiyue's heart became colder and colder, she always knew that the old lady didn't like her, and she tried her best to do what she liked, but she couldn't match Li Weizhu, who met for the first time at this time.
Old Madam Zhao smiled again and said, "Wei Zhu is also alone, if the date is set, it is not good to continue to live in the mansion, the Zhuangzi where I live is spacious, it is better to come with me." ”
Zhou pinched her eyebrows, Li Weizhu's blushing face and the eagerness of Old Madam Zhao's tone made her feel indescribably irritable at this moment, "Then this is the case first, Miss Li......"
"What else, Miss Li. Old Madam Zhao interrupted Zhou's words and said, "It's better to be sensible than Weiyue, and you also know how to call Sister Weiyue." ”
Zhou pressed himself and smiled reluctantly, "It's my fault." Weizhu treats it as her own home and lives there. Although she knew that this marriage had been decided, she always wondered if there was room to go back, "Wei Zhu lives in the mansion, if others ask, don't talk about this marriage first." only said that she was the daughter of an old friend. And as he said this, his voice was raised, and it commanded all the slaves and maidservants.
Bai Qian was delighted to hear the meaning of maintenance in the old lady's words, seeing Zhou's expression, and pinching the cold sweat for her own young lady, the expression on her face changed back and forth, but fortunately she lowered her head, and everyone else only cared about Li Weizhu, and no one cared about what the little maid was thinking. Before Mrs. Zhao could say anything, Li Weizhu had already responded, "Madam, it's up to you." In the marriage contract, she and Zhou thought together, the slower the performance of this marriage contract, the better, although Mrs. Zhao is amiable, she is really a little afraid, afraid that the future will leave the medical skills she has learned for many years, only give people some medicinal food, and learn the so-called method of being in charge.
Old Madam Zhao glanced at Li Weizhu complainingly, and then said to the Zhou family, "My eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Zhao family is upright, what is there to say?"
Zhou Weiyue spoke, "Aunt is for Sister Weizhu's good." Seeing everyone looking at her, the corners of her lips hooked up a shallow smile, and she smiled gently, if it weren't for the fiery red palace flowers on her face, this smile should be even more tranquil, "After all, it is not very decent and decent, and the wedding date is set later, and it is more suitable for Sister Weizhu to live with the old lady." Speaking of this, he smiled again, "If you want me to say, Sister Weizhu lives with me very well." After all, I don't know how long I will have to live with the old lady in the future, so it is better for me to be with Sister Weizhu in advance. ”
If people are in the old lady's place, it is not easy to find out the details, and it is better to put it in the eyes of their niece, but it is better, Zhou said: "The little girl's family, it is better to be with Wei Yue, so as not to disturb the old lady's purity, Wei Yue also has a place there." ”
Originally, Zhou thought that it would take some words, but he heard the old lady respond with a smile: "I look good, Weiyue, you are older than your sister Weizhu, take care of her more on weekdays." ”
Want to live with Zhou Weiyue? Li Weizhu was stunned, but she didn't fall asleep on her feet, it was the same with anyone, so Li Weizhu responded.
"Your sister Weizhu has come from afar, and she should be tired. Zhou opened his mouth and said, "You first lead Weizhu to your room to sit down, and let people sweep the guest rooms in your courtyard." ”
The old lady bowed her head lightly and responded.
Zhou Weiyue led Li Weizhu to the direction of her house, the Zhao family's mansion covers an area that is probably smaller than the Luo family, the winding road, and the scattered flowers and trees block the view, making people feel that they can't see the end at a glance, and this courtyard looks exquisite and covers a wide area. "My aunt asked her to take care of it, and I took care of a small piece of the west side. Zhou Weiyue smiled, "When I have nothing to do, I follow my aunt to learn to take care of these flowers and trees, can you take a look?"
In this midsummer, the lush trees and unknown blooming flowers swayed in the breeze, Li Weizhu felt that it looked good, but it didn't come out of it, "It's beautiful." ”
Zhou Weiyue smiled, "If my sister likes it, I will teach my sister to take care of these." ”
Li Weizhu said, "I'm afraid I don't have much time." ”
Zhou Weiyue's smile paused, "Do you want to learn how to govern the family with your aunt?" Actually, don't be too anxious, the old lady has a lot of skills to press the bottom of the box, you can learn from the old lady." ”
Li Weizhu nodded absentmindedly, she didn't want to learn from Shi Laozi's family.
How to knock down people, how to reward and punish clearly, how to reconcile, how to grasp the degree so that there will be no fish when the water is clear, and how to make the people below selfish because the oil and water are too rich. Listening to Zhou Weiyue talk about this, she became impatient.
A trace of sarcasm crossed Zhou Weiyue's eyes, how did the people in the countryside know the importance of this Qi family, "Everything in the world is knowledgeable, and my sister really has a lot to learn." However, I think since my sister is studying medicine, these are nothing to my sister. Speaking of studying medicine, how many years has my sister studied medicine?"
The two of them have already reached Zhou Weiyue's courtyard, and an elm tree is planted in the northeast corner, with lush branches and leaves, if it is a string of elm money in spring, it can be picked off and steamed to eat, sprinkled with a little salt, accompanied by sesame oil, which can be said to be delicious in the world. But obviously the use of the elm tree in Zhou Weiyue's yard is different from Li Weizhu's, "I don't like to stay in the house all the time, there is a tree in this yard, my aunt asked people to make this stone table and stone bench, you can enjoy the shade under the tree, you look at the table specially made bigger, because you can also play the piano, paint, write poems or play games here." Zhou Weiyue said this, and the corners of her eyes were also sweet smiles, "We also scalded osmanthus wine, picked up a few fat crabs with autumn cream, and drank while eating here." Among them is my cousin. ”
The cousin's words were plain, but they attracted Li Weizhu's attention, "You are eating wine here?"
"yes. Zhou Weiyue said with a smile, covered her lips with a handkerchief, and smiled Sven, "Eating and drinking is just once, most of the time it is here to play the piano, discuss poetry, painting and chess, my cousin said that this is the land of Sven, if you eat and drink here from time to time, wouldn't it be insulting to Sven?"
Playing the piano and discussing poetry, playing chess and painting, "I don't know any of them." Li Weizhu said honestly.
If people in the countryside know how to be rare, Zhou Weiyue was disdainful in her heart, but she said: "It's not difficult, my sister is smart and smart, and she will definitely learn it soon." Zhou Weiyue said politely, how much thought she put into the name of Zhangyang talented woman, but she didn't mention the hard work at this time, as if it could be done overnight.
"Where is it so easy?" Li Weizhu shook her head, she is not a fool, she has used a lot of kung fu in medical skills alone, and she cannot be said to be proficient, not to mention that she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is not expected to be proficient in everything.
"It's also very stuffy in the house, sister, let's talk here, how about it?" Zhou Weiyue listened to the footsteps and said to Li Weizhu.
"Okay. Li Weizhu responded.
Originally, it was just a gentle breeze at this time, and the wind made the branches and leaves of the elm tree rattle, Bai Qi looked at Li Weizhu and Zhou Weiyue standing opposite each other, and there was a feeling of needle tip against wheat mang.
