Li Xia left, Xia Zhi packed up, and went to the academy with Xia Qiao to see Xia Xiucai and Tian.

Tian was still very enthusiastic when she saw Xia Qiao coming, it seemed that she had recognized Xia Qiao. Although Xia Xiucai and Tian didn't go home, Old Man Xia still thought about them, not only brought a lot of words, but also brought them things.

New wheat noodles, pickled eggs at home, duck eggs, these things Xia Xiucai and Tian have a copy. Of course, they definitely didn't give much to the summer solstice.

Xia Xiucai still felt a little guilty about not being able to return to Daxingzhuang. He sat down and asked Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia if they were in good health. Talking like this, it is indispensable to mention that Second Uncle Xia still has May.

The matter of May cannot be hidden from Xia Xiucai and Tian.

Tian sneered, saying that she had already guessed that May would cause trouble and ruin the doorway. "The old man is still eccentric. It means that Old Man Xia should have driven Second Uncle Xia's family away, but he didn't do so.

"Don't talk like that. Xia Xiucai glanced at Tian disapprovingly. Although he and Second Uncle Xia have very different personalities and don't spend much time together now, they are brothers of the same mother after all.

"Your second uncle's temperament has been a little floating since he was a child. Thanks to you~ Ye looked at him. Really kicked him out, how can he stand in front of people in the future, how can he live. Xia Xiucai said this, and then analyzed Old Man Xia's thoughts, "You~ Ye must be angry." ”

Both Xia Zhi and Xia Qiao nodded.

"You didn't all persuade you~ Master. Angry and hurtful. For the sake of your second uncle, the old man doesn't have a few days of worry-free days a year. Xia Xiucai was quite worried about Old Man Xia, so he said that he would write a letter to persuade Old Man Xia.

"Dad, just write it. I sent it to Li Xia, and Li Xia found someone to carry the letter quickly. "The summer solstice said.

No matter what Xia Xiucai said in his letter, he was willing to write a letter for this matter, which was a comfort to Old Man Xia.

Xia Xiucai spread out pen and ink on the table and wrote a letter to Old Man Xia. He wrote a letter and instructed the summer solstice.

"Don't bother Li Xia with anything. Li Shanchang planned to ask him to take the township examination in the next two years, which was the time for him to concentrate on studying. ”

"Li Xia didn't tell me!" Xia Zhi nodded, "Dad, I know." ”

"That's good. Xia Xiucai nodded with satisfaction, he knew that Xia Zhi was very sensible, and he didn't need to ask for a second time at all.

Tian talked to Xia Qiao next to her, she asked about the production of wheat fields, and then asked about the chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, etc., and mentioned Sun Lan'er in the middle, and then mentioned Tian Daidi.

mentioned Tian Daidi, and said that their family worked in the shop in the town, which naturally mentioned Tian Laotou's family.

Xia Qiao looked at Tian's face, and said a general description of the situation of Old Man Tian's family. Xia Qiao, of course, said it with a good one. Tian was silent for a while before saying this.

"They're not doing well, that's how it is. I don't think about them now. They're doing well, and they don't think about me anymore. …… Are they all Dabao's daughters-in-law?"

"It looks like it should be from the outside. Xia Qiao replied very carefully.

"Then what else is there to look at from the outside and look at inside, I guess she is in charge. That girl has a heart at a glance, and she is not aggressive. …… Then grandma and your grandpa didn't fight anymore. "After all, the Tian family is still thinking about Old Man Tian and the Tian Wang family.

Xia Qiao paused: "I haven't heard of a fight." ”

"Ahh ”

Xia Zhi was afraid that Xia Qiao would be asked by the Tian family and couldn't help but tell the truth, she didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so she interjected and said that the Tian family's aunt Jiang asked Erya.

Hearing this, Erya approached. "My mother, my mother......"

"You~ mother is doing well. …… It's much stronger than when I was backing the mountain. "The summer solstice said.

"That's it. Tian pursed his lips slightly. "It's good for Erya to be with me, you didn't tell her to reassure her. ”

I told her. Xia Solstice replied.

Tian snorted.

Because the hour was not early, Tian was eager to cook, and she wanted to leave Xia Qiao to eat in the academy.

"The cook went shopping, and he will come in a moment. Xiao Shu'er and my uncle will come over to eat later. "The summer solstice said.

When she said this, she arranged everything.

Tian's mood and face were a little complicated, but there were many such things, and she was almost used to it.

"Okay, then I'll borrow the light of my eldest son and have a ready-made meal. ”

"Mother, look at what you said. When do you want to eat ready-made meals? My second sister is here, and you still need to do it to cook a meal. ”

The summer solstice is called avoiding the heavy and light, deliberately misinterpreting the meaning of the Tian family. If it weren't for Tian's crookedness, she would still be right.

After a while, sure enough, the cook came with all kinds of vegetables and vegetables.

"Dad, mother, let's have a simple meal. "Xia Solstice said that he wanted to eat jajangmyeon, so he used the new wheat noodles he brought from home.

Xia Xiucai had already finished writing the letter, and was blowing gently to make the ink dry faster. He was very much in favor of the summer solstice's proposal.

"Our new wheat noodles are delicious, and I can smell the fragrance when you bring in the noodle bag. Xia Xiucai can be said to have grown up eating wheat noodles at home, and he has some feelings for the new wheat noodles at home.

In this way, there is no room for Tian to speak.

The big guy really ate fried noodles for dinner, and the chef of Ninghuatang came to cook it himself, and the noodles and soup base were of course more complicated, delicate and delicious.

Xia Xiucai loves to eat very much, and also said to Tian: "The wheat noodles sent by the family will be eaten like this in the future." ”

Tian sneered: "Then you have to go to her with your daughter to eat." I don't have the old goodies. ”

Xia Xiucai was just happy to say that, but he was disappointed by Tian's words.

The atmosphere was faintly awkward.

But the big guys are used to this kind of embarrassment. Tian scolded others, as long as Xia Zhi was present, he would definitely help him go back. But Tian's scolding Xia Xiucai, Xia Zhi never wanted to say much.

In Xia Zhi's opinion, Tian and Xia Xiucai are willing to fight and suffer, and she doesn't have the leisure time to take care of this kind of idle matter.

After the meal, everyone talked again, Xia Zhi told Xia Xiucai and Tian that Aunt Xia's house would be treated tomorrow, and Xia Xiucai and Tian said that they would definitely go. Xia Zhi and Xia Qiao took Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Heiyu'er back to Ninghua Hall.

Aunt Xia knew that they were back, so she had already sent someone to deliver the letter. Aunt Xia is such a person who has arrived.

Back in Ninghua Hall, Li Xia was sitting in the hall and drinking tea slowly.

"I'm back. Li Xia greeted Xia Zhi with a smile, so he was not a guest here, but more like the master here.

Xia Qiao, Xiao Shu'er and Little Black Fish didn't feel strange at all. They immediately talked to Li Xia and laughed and became affectionate.

Xia Zhi smiled secretly, she went into the back room to change her clothes and came out, and saw that Li Xia was already pointing out Xia Qiao's article.

After Xia Qiao wrote the article, he didn't give it to Xia Xiucai to read, but to Li Xia first.

"I've eaten. What do you want to eat in a while?" Xia Solstice sat down on the side.

"What do you eat, what do I eat?" said Li Xia with a smile.

"Just ask you. Xia Zhi glanced at Li Xia.

Li Xia thought about it seriously and said, "Sixteen, I want to eat the crisp cheese you made." ”

"Then eat the pastry. Xia Zhi nodded and did not go to Zhang Luo immediately. I just had dinner, and it's still early.

"My grandfather and my grandmother brought you something. When you're gone, let my brother send you back. Xia Zhi said to Li Xia again.

"Big~grandpa~ grandma is always thinking about me. This time I went in a hurry, and I didn't have time to talk to the big ~ grandpa ~ milk. ”

"I'll talk about that later. You can't never go to Daxingzhuang again. Xia Zhi said this casually, but Li Xia's face changed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Xia Solstice asked.

"No, not much. Li Xia smiled.

"You~ Mother just called you back, is it for dinner, or is there something else?"

"It's fine, she doesn't know when I sent Bing'er back. Li Xia replied.

"Oh. Xia Zhi sighed, "Li Xia, is it time for you to take the township test?"

"There is no rush in the township test. My dad discussed this with me. I'm still young, so it's better to precipitate more before entering the market. ”

"My father said that the mountain chief told him that you are going to take the township test. ”

"No, it wasn't my dad who said that. Maybe someone said it in passing. ”

"Perhaps. ”

The two of them diverted from the topic when they said this, and it seemed that no one took this seriously.

When it was time to eat supper, there was not only the crisp cheese that Li Xia wanted, but also a bowl of fragrant fried noodles.

"This side is good. Li Xia saw that there was only one bowl of noodles, and he was not polite, so he brought it to himself.

"Li Xia, you can eat it, we will eat fried noodles at night. My family's new wheat milled noodles are delicious. The little black fish said.

Li Xia eats noodles and praises them while eating.

The little black fish looked up and tasted it again: "Sixteen made." ”

"No wonder it's so delicious. Li Xia immediately praised it again.

Summer Solstice eats cherries and ignores Li Xia.

The little black fish is swarthy~ The big black eyes glanced at Li Xia twice, Li Xia was so flattering. But is Li Xia right about the summer solstice...... That's not surprising. The little black fish lowered her head and went to eat again.

The summer solstice back in Fucheng is still busy.

Although Li Shanchang did not let Li Xia participate in the township examination immediately, he arranged more homework for Li Xia.

Li Xia had less free time, but the number of times he came to Ninghuatang to find the summer solstice increased.

But the summer solstice is busy, sometimes she will be in the shop, sometimes she will suddenly run to the Zhuangzi, and more often she is in the workshop.

In order to supply the sales in the shop, but also to supply the sales of a chain store in the future, the workshop of the summer solstice has been expanded.

Most of the time, Li Xia can grasp the whereabouts of the summer solstice, but because there will be sudden events, Li Xia will sometimes pounce on the air.

At this time, Li Xia would wait in Ninghua Hall.

The summer solstice is busy, and Li Xia's time is tight. Sometimes Li Xia waited until the summer solstice, but he could only say a word or two, and then he had to leave.

At such a time, Xia Solstice was vaguely aware of something.

Xia Zhi asked Tian Kuo: "Is there something wrong with Li Xia's family?"

He Bing'er's departure seems to have made Tian Kuo grow up overnight. I don't know if he really wants to make a career, or if he wants to make himself have no time to think about He Bing'er by being busy. In short, Tian Kuo spent more time with Xia Zhi.

Xia, Li, and Tian cooperated, and the Tian family sent Tian Kuo. This is what Tian Kuo himself strongly demands.

Tian Kuo and Xia Zhi are now better and more friendly friends than before. He was holding the account book in his hand to read, and he was stopped by Xia Zhi.

"It shouldn't be a big deal. What's wrong?"

"Not really. Is there something you don't know?"

"If there's anything worth asking, I'm sure I know. Tian Kuo said, he put down the account book and looked at Xia Zhi seriously, "Why don't I help you inquire." What's wrong, there's something wrong with Li Xia. ”

"I can't tell, maybe I'm too careful. Xia Zhi thought about it and said.

"You're not a man of many hearts. I'll inquire for you. Tian Kuo said immediately.

"No need for you. If I want to know, I'll ask Li Xia directly. ”

Tian Kuo smiled: "I know." ”

"You know the ghost. Xia Zhi saw that Tian Kuo's smile had a deep meaning, so he scolded with a smile.

"Hey, I know, I know it all. Tian Kuo said.

"People who know too much often don't live long. Xia Zhi said deliberately.

"I'm so scared. Tian Kuo looked horrified.

Both laughed at the same time.

After spending a long time with Tian Kuo, Xia Zhi found more and more that Tian Kuo was really a very good man and a very good friend.

Of course, this is from a friend's point of view.

If Tian Kuo has a shortcoming, it is his peach blossom eyes, which are too lush. But if it was He Bing'er, Tian Kuo would not have paid attention to those peach blossoms.

He Bing'er may never know what she gave up.

Tian Kuo said that he wanted to inquire for Xia Zhi, even if Xia Zhi did not nod, he really loyally inquired about Xia Zhi.

Then he found out that Li Xia really seemed to have something, but he kept it a secret. He didn't ask why.

Mrs. Tian and Li Shanchang are hiding something so tightly, he can't even inquire, and his father and mother may not know.

Tian Kuo thought about it and went to inquire with his mother, but he still found nothing. Mrs. Tian asked him not to meddle in his affairs.

In the end, it was Li Xia who told Xia Zhi.

It was rare to have free time on this day, and Xia Zhi held a small banquet in Ninghuatang, inviting Mrs. Jiugu, Tian Kuo, and Li Xia, and Xia Zhi also invited Tian Laibao, Changsheng, Sun Xiuzhi and Pearl.

The crescent moon naturally followed, and the summer solstice still prepared another table of good wine and food, please follow the people served by Mrs. Jiugu, that is, the little sisters of the crescent moon.

After three rounds of drinking, Mrs. Tian sent someone to call Li Xia.

Li Xia felt that Mrs. Tian should be fine, so she said that she was accompanying Mrs. Jiugu and said that she would go back after a while.

But the little guy waited for Li Xia to go back.

"Big~ The master sent a letter from the capital, and the lord and the wife asked the master to go back immediately. ”

"Your brother has sent a letter, so go back quickly. If you don't have anything to do, I'll let Xia Solstice leave a good wine for you to drink when you come back. Mrs. Jiugu said to Li Xia.

Li Xia had to get up and leave.

As soon as he left, the feast was dispersed and he did not come back.

"His eldest brother and sister-in-law have never been troublesome, and there will be nothing else to do except ask for things from the family. What's wrong this time, there should be something else delayed. Mrs. Jiugu said.

She and Tian Kuo left, and they didn't take this matter to heart.

Everyone dispersed, but Li Xia returned.

Li Xia sat down in the hall, but did not speak for a long time.
