Chapter 151: Returning Home
Xia Zhi smiled and told Second Uncle Xia very frankly that these things were gifts brought back by her big guy. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "If you want to make a fortune, I'm not far worse than my second uncle." Second uncle, my uncle and I will go home soon, what do you have to say, what do you have to give to my grandfather and my grandmother? ”
Second Uncle Xia's face was immediately a little embarrassed, and he said in his heart that Xia Zhi really didn't suffer a loss, so he took him another army so lightly. "Xiaolong, sixteen, I'm busy with this matter, I can't go back, you can take it for me to the old man and the old lady." No matter what he thinks in his heart, no matter what he will do, Second Uncle Xia's words are still quite beautiful.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he beckoned to the young man who was furthest away: "Quickly pick up a few pieces of good snacks and put them in them, and let my brother and niece carry them home." ”
The young man answered with his mouth, but there was no movement under his feet. Second Uncle Xia shouted again, and the young man turned around and went inside, saying that he was going to get the fruit box.
Only then did Second Uncle Xia turn around and talk to Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyu'er: "Xiaolong, sixteen, you go back, when the snacks are loaded, I will have someone send them to you." ”
"I'm so embarrassed to trouble the second uncle." Xia Zhi smiled and said, "Uncle and I will wait here for a while." ”
"Okay, okay." The smile on Second Uncle Xia's face was a little stiff. He accompanied Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyuer to say a few words, and said that he had something to leave and let them wait by themselves.
"Second uncle, what can be more important than being filial to my grandfather and grandmother. When you leave, we don't know when we'll get the fruit box for my grandparents. Xia Zhi smiled. She is usually willing to save face when she speaks, but just now there was something about Xia Zhu, and Xia Zhi didn't want to make Second Uncle Xia comfortable.
Second Uncle Xia's face was even more ugly, so he could only greet the young man again, but no one answered at all. I don't know if Second Uncle Xia can't afford to be a dim sum at all in the store, or if he deliberately did this routine with the guys, and responded to the story in vain.
No matter which one it was, Xia Zhi only smiled at Second Uncle Xia to see what he was going to do.
In the end, Second Uncle Xia had no choice but to laugh with Xia Zhi: "Sixteen, you wait, I'll go up and take a look, I'm afraid something happened." ”
"Second uncle, no need." Xia Zhi will accept it when he sees it, "As long as you have the mind to be filial to my grandfather and my grandmother, my grandfather and my grandmother don't care whether you give anything or not." ”
"Yes, yes, the old man and the old lady are good and reasonable people. I'm going to have someone fill it with a fruit box. Second Uncle Xia sweated slightly on his forehead, and he really regretted that he shouldn't have probed his brain just now and let Xia Zhi see it.
After the girl Xia Zhi came to Fucheng, she became more and more difficult. This girl is a person who can't be offended, Second Uncle Xia made up his mind that he must control his mouth in front of Xia Zhi in the future.
However, if he can really control his mouth, he is not Second Uncle Xia.
Second Uncle Xia said so, and Xia Zhi didn't plan to wait in the store any longer. She said goodbye to Second Uncle Xia, and came out of Guifangzhai with the little black fish, and she didn't shy away from it, so she entered Guixiangzhai diagonally opposite.
The young man surnamed Zhang saw that the summer solstice was coming, and he was busy and greeted him with a smile. "The girl is looking for a shopkeeper, or a snack."
"I won't bother the shopkeeper today." Xia Zhi told the young man, "You pick up the soft and restrained snacks in the shop and weigh me two catties and put a fruit box." ”
The fruit box is also a dim sum box, most of which are printed with auspicious patterns, which are a must-have for visiting relatives and friends during the New Year's holidays.
The young man hurriedly agreed, and he was very clever and asked Xia Zhi if it was for the elderly to eat, and Xia Zhi nodded and said yes. After a while, the young man picked out the snacks and packed them in the fruit box.
Xia Zhi took out the money and asked the young man how much it was. The young man was busy laughing and refused to accept the money. "The proprietor and the shopkeeper have already sent a message, and no matter what the girl takes when she comes to the store, she can't accept the girl's money."
"It won't work." Xia Zhi smiled and insisted on paying, "There are rules for the sale and purchase of the shop, and I can't break this rule." ”
After buying things, Xia Zhi and Little Black Fish came back to see Aunt Xia. Aunt Xia was very happy to see that they had bought these things for their family. Then, she also asked about their conflict with Xia Zhu.
"Auntie, why did you find out so quickly?" Xia Zhi asked strangely.
"It's from that courtyard that came and said it." Aunt Xia gestured to the next door with her eyes, and she told Xia Zhi that it was Guo Xi who came over to complain to her. "said that you bullied Xia Zhu, didn't understand the rules, didn't know how to respect the elders, and didn't put him in your eyes. Told me a lot of nonsense. I asked him what was going on. I said Sixteen is my niece, I know her, she's not that kind of person. ”
Guo Xi came to Aunt Xia's complaint, and Aunt Xia was not easy to mess with, and finally Guo Xi touched his nose and left.
"What the hell is going on?" Aunt Xia asked Xia Zhi at this time.
Little Heiyuer hurriedly told Aunt Xia what happened, and then said that Guo Xi was "his wicked person sued first." ”
Aunt Xia heard that it was not Xia Zhi's fault. Not only did the summer solstice do it right, but it was also right. It is rare that Xia Zhiken is so protective of the little black fish. While feeling relieved, Aunt Xia was also worried about Xia Zhi.
"That's the most thoughtful person, and they both have bad mouths." Because of this incident, I am afraid that Guo Xi and Guo Qian will inevitably say bad things about the summer solstice in the future. If it affects the reputation of the summer solstice, it will not be good.
"It's fine." Xia Zhi didn't take this matter to heart, "At that time, many people were watching from the side, let's take care of it, and we are not afraid of them gossiping." ”
"That's right." However, Xia Zhi beat Xia Zhu in front of so many people, and also choked Guo Xi and Second Uncle Xia. People will say that Xia Zhu, Guo Xi and Second Uncle Xia are not, but Xia Zhi will inevitably have a reputation that is too spicy.
When it comes to fame, little girls are particularly prone to loss. On the summer solstice, a beautiful little girl, if she is said to be a female insect, her future marriage will be affected. Aunt Xia is completely thinking about the summer solstice.
Xia Zhi didn't care, she never wanted to have a reputation for being virtuous and virtuous. A person who suppresses his own personality, lives a twist and turn, and has to go around 108,000 miles to say a word, how hard it is, how boring. She didn't want to bother with that.
Xia Zhi said that the little black fish is full of vitality, but in fact, she is also full of vitality.
"Sixteen, when I talk to you, everyone will open up. That's what you're talking about. Aunt Xia smiled, "Besides, they have long mouths, so don't we have long mouths?" With me here, I can't let them wronged you indiscriminately. ”
Saying this, Sister-in-law Wang sent Yuehua skirt over. Xia Zhi found the pearl over, the skirt pearl was very fitting, and she happily spun around on the ground.
"Don't thank you fourth sister, that is, your fourth sister spoils you, if it were me, I wouldn't spend so much money to make you such a dress." Aunt Xia said with a sigh of disgust.
Pearl happily thanked the summer solstice. "It's still the fourth sister who is good to me." That's what she says. Guo Yuhuan always runs to Yaowangmiao Hutong these days, and rarely comes to play with her anymore.
Sister-in-law Wang gave the skirt and did not leave in a hurry. She chatted with Aunt Xia about family life, and slowly talked about Xia Zhi beating Xia Zhu in Guifangzhai.
Aunt Xia explained for the summer solstice, saying that the summer solstice was to protect the little black fish.
"The big guys are praising the summer solstice girl." Sister-in-law Wang said with a smile.
Aunt Xia deliberately said: "I'm afraid that people don't know the inside story and say that she is too powerful." ”
"That's what fools would say. Not to mention people from other places, the people on our street all say that the summer solstice girl is good. The people are refreshing, and the reason is clear, which makes people respect. In the future, she must be a grandmother who can be in charge of the family and support the portal. Sister-in-law Wang smiled and praised the summer solstice from head to toe.
Aunt Xia was happy to hear this, so she said to Sister-in-law Wang: "We are all people who understand on this street. ”
"There are also people who want me to come and ask grandma about the summer solstice girl." Sister-in-law Wang immediately said, her smile already had something else in it.
Aunt Xia is thorough at a point, on this question, she has asked Xia Zhi's tone, so the answer is also ready-made. "Sixteen is only twelve, too young. Sister-in-law Wang, we are all close people, I also have to pay attention to her and choose slowly, and when she is almost old, you have to pay more attention to Sister-in-law Wang. ”
This is to tell the sister-in-law that whoever mentions the summer solstice here will not respond now, so it is better not to open the mouth. But she didn't say anything to death, meaning that if she waited a few more years, if the conditions were suitable on Sister-in-law's side, she would not miss it.
Aunt Xia spoke very politely to Sister-in-law Wang. A person like Sister-in-law Wang can't be offended on the street.
Sister-in-law Wang understood, although she felt a little regretful, but she didn't dare to force it, so she took the topic away.
……
The next day, it was the day when the summer solstice was going back to Daxingzhuang. Li Xia and Tian Laibao both came to see them off. Li Xia sent some pen, ink, paper and inkstone to Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyu'er, so that the two of them would have time to read and write more after they went back. Tian Laibao sent a lot of food, including all kinds of snacks and fresh fruits.
Tian Laibao was reluctant to ask Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyuer when they would come to Fucheng again. Little Heiyuer repeatedly invited Li Xia and Tian Laibao to go to Daxingzhuang to play with him.
It wasn't until the summer solstice that they were about to get into the carriage that Second Uncle Xia sent a guy over and sent a bag of dim sum for Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia.
It was scheduled to be a carriage that departed early in the morning, because everyone was reluctant, and the last day was old, so it set off from Xishi Street.
The carriage belonged to Tian Laibao's family, and it was the best car in his family. Xia Zhi didn't want to trouble Tian Laibao, but Tian Laibao said that his mother was going to bring things to his mother's house, just along the way. Of course, Xia Zhi knew that this was not a pass, but a special arrangement by Tian Chang in Hetian Fuchun.
The carriage of the Tian family was much more spacious and comfortable than that of Aunt Xia's carriage, and the three of Xia Zhi, Xiao Heiyuer and Xia Xiucai sat in it, and they also put a lot of things in large bags, and there was any crowding in the carriage.
The cart was pulled by three large green mules, driven by a driver with many years of experience, and the cart walked lightly and quickly on the official road.
Approaching Daxingzhuang, Xia Zhi and the little black fish looked at the gradually familiar scenery, and they were in a good mood. The two children were talking with a smile, but Xia Xiucai next to him frowned slightly.
Therefore, if he did not have enough money for the Tian family, Xia Xiucai would face a severe test when he came back this time.
"Dad, what you promised me, you can't go back on it when you come to my mother. You don't think about yourself, but you also think about my brother, my brother and me. ”
"Sixteen, don't worry, I won't." Xia Xiucai said this, and sighed, "I just thought of your mother...... Hey......"
"Dad, you just don't regret it." The summer solstice will not be said again. Xia Xiucai couldn't borrow money at all, and the Tian family couldn't eat him. The effect of the plan is good.
As for the matter of the champion zongzi, she is not worried that Xia Xiucai will miss it. Xia Xiucai didn't know that she ran the workshop, and thought that she was just working for Li Xia and Gui Xiangzhai.
The summer solstice came back from Fucheng, and the banner of the champion zongzi was hung up in Guixiangzhai. Guixiangzhai will supply champion zongzi all year round in the future, except during the Dragon Boat Festival, the usual supply will not be large, but it can also meet the needs of people who love to eat zongzi.
The carriage entered Daxingzhuang and stopped at the gate of the backyard. Xia Lin was playing at the gate, and when he saw that they were coming back from the summer solstice, he screamed, and he didn't bother to greet them, so he ran into the door to report to Old Man Xia.
Xia Zhi got off the carriage and couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw Xia Lin's chubby back.
When Xia Lin arrived at the hospital, he had already shouted loudly: "My uncle and my fourth sister are back!" ”
Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia appeared at the door of the upper room almost as soon as they heard the sound, and Layue also ran out of the west wing. Several people hurriedly greeted the gate, only to see that Xia Xiucai had also returned.
"Dad, mother." The little black fish screamed happily and threw himself at Old Man Xia, halfway through, but he turned a corner and threw himself into the arms of Old Lady Xia behind.
Old Man Xia was happy, relieved and a little disappointed at the same time.
This will work, and Xia Qiao and Xia Shu in the front yard also heard Xin'er rushing over. Everyone shouted at each other in a mess, and the gate was full of excitement for a while.
Xia Zhi greeted Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, and then asked Xia Qiao, Uncle Xiao, and Layue to come over to move things one by one, and finally Xia Xiucai and Old Lady Xia also wrapped a few bags in their hands.
Old Man Xia asked whose carriage belonged to the summer solstice. Because he saw the sign on the carriage, he knew that it was not hired. He should have asked Xia Xiucai about this, but he could see at a glance that the person in charge was not Xia Xiucai, so he asked Xia Zhi.
Xia Zhi told Old Man Xia that the carriage belonged to Tian Laibao's family.
"It's too much trouble." Old man Xia beckoned the coachman and asked him to come into the house to rest for a while, and he also wanted to leave him at home for dinner. This is the simplicity and warmth of the village's hospitality.
The coachman is a subordinate, and he has already been instructed, so he naturally did not dare to agree, so he only respectfully excused himself from the old man Xia, saying that he was going to go down to the big elm tree soon, and the eldest grandmother brought things back.
Xia Zhi took out a handful of money and gave it to the coachman, saying that he had worked hard and asked him to buy some refreshments to eat. The summer solstice reward was generous, and the coachman thanked him with a smile on his face and drove the car down to the big elm tree.
Old Man Xia looked at Xia Zhi and felt that the grandfather and grandson had a lot to say.
