Everyone was like this, and Xia Xiucai didn't mean to be angry at all. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He didn't defend anything, just smiled silently. A thin middle-aged man smiled and said, "Let's not talk about Brother Xia." It's me, if my mother-in-law has half of my sister-in-law's wife, then I would be willing to be like Brother Xia. ”
The crowd laughed again. Xia Xiucai also smiled good-naturedly.
Xia Zhi also heard that although the words of these people were very ridiculous, they did not contain any malicious intent. She had only heard that Xia Xiucai was very popular in the academy before, but now that she saw it with her own eyes, she couldn't help but believe it.
Xia Xiucai is very easy-going, has real talent but is not proud, and never competes with others. This is his merit, and it is an extremely rare one. If only he weren't so weak and muddled in some family matters.
Is this the so-called "no one is perfect"?
Xia Solstice could only sigh secretly. She quickly washed a basin of clothes and dried it again. The big guy hadn't dispersed yet, and praised her for how well she was washed.
"My little niece is really capable. Liu Juren said that he would invite Xia Xiucai to drink, and then talk about his third son and Xia Zhi's family affairs.
Xia Xiucai naturally excused himself again. At this time, I heard someone cough dryly. The big guy turned his head to look, and some greeted the young master, and some called the junior brother.
It turned out that Li Xia walked back.
Li Xia was also surprised that there were suddenly so many more people in the courtyard. Not only were the residents of this courtyard here, but many gentlemen from other courtyards also came.
In addition to the gentlemen, there are many students.
When he saw Xia Zhi and the others in the middle of the crowd, Li Xia felt that he understood.
As the center of the conversation, but he couldn't say a word, Xia Zhi was trying to get out. Seeing Li Xia coming, her eyes immediately lit up.
Li Xia glanced at Xia Zhi quickly, and everyone saw that he was not good at giving Xia Zhi any looks, so it seemed faint. He bowed his hand to everyone: "The mountain chief invites everyone to come over, there is something to discuss." ”
Li Shanchang is invited, so no one dares to delay. Everyone was busy talking and laughing. Xia Xiucai fell at the end, so he wanted to tell Xia Zhi and the little black fish a few words.
Li Xia came over at this time, so that Xia Xiu didn't have to worry. "Mr. Xia, even if you are busy, Uncle and Sixteen will be handed over to me. I promise to send you back safely. ”
"Then why is it so troublesome young master. Xia Xiucai was a little reluctant.
"Mr. Xia is polite, what is not troublesome. I happened to be going to the vicinity of Nishishi Street, which was also incidental. Li Xia said with a smile.
Xia Xiucai instructed Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyuer not to make trouble for Li Xia, and then thanked Li Xia again, and then went to Li Shanchang's side.
Li Xia looked at everyone's backs and smiled slightly.
Xia Zhi felt that his smile was a little strange, and then thought of what he had just said. It was such a coincidence that Li Shanchang had something to discuss with everyone at this time. And even if Li Shanchang really has something, he shouldn't let Li Xia come to find someone.
"Li Xia, is the mountain chief really looking for something to do with everyone?" Xia Zhi asked.
"It's almost the holidays, and the mountain chief will always find everyone to have something. Li Xia replied incomprehensibly.
Xia Zhi couldn't help laughing: "When the big guy arrives at the mountain chief, what can you do if the mountain chief doesn't give you a lie?"
Li Xia smiled: "No, no." "I don't know if he said that Li Shanchang wouldn't lie to him, or that he wouldn't have any trouble.
As he spoke, Li Xia called a carriage over, and took the little black fish and Xia Shang to the carriage and walked outside Wenshan Academy.
"I'm in for a treat today, let's talk while eating. Sixteen, uncle, what do you want to eat?"
The little black fish discussed with Xia Zhi, and said that Li Xia would be in charge.
Li Xia thought about it, he already knew the taste of the little black fish and the summer solstice. "We ate beef noodles last time, or let's go and eat Qiao rice noodles this time. ”
"Cross the bridge rice noodles?" the little black fish thought the name was very strange.
Li Xia will tell the legend of rice noodles crossing the bridge. The little black fish listened to it for the first time, and was naturally very fascinated. Xia Zhi had heard this intention, although Li Xia's version was slightly different, but the main content of the story was the same. And, listening to Li Xia, this intention seems to be even more interesting.
"This is the food on Yungui's side. "As for why there are cross-bridge rice noodles outside Wenshan Academy, that's another story. Li Xia told Xia Zhi and Little Black Fish that a student from Yungui came to Wenshan Academy to study the year before last, but after coming for a while, he missed the food in his hometown very much.
Then he wrote home. This family also spoils children, so they sent the cook to come from thousands of mountains and rivers. The student got his wish and ate the food of his hometown, and then invited his husband and classmates to taste it.
There are many people who love to eat bridge rice noodles. Later, I don't know who picked it up, this Yunguilai foodie simply opened this cross-bridge rice noodle shop outside the academy. It is said that the ingredients used in the shop, as well as the person in charge of the spoon, are all from Yungui, and the taste of the rice noodles made is very authentic.
The little black fish is eager to try. The summer solstice is also looking forward to it.
The carriage soon left the academy, swayed into a quiet alley, and then stopped in front of a shop. If the shop is opened in such a place, it seems that only regular customers and gourmets can find it.
Li Xia took Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyuer into the store with ease, found a private room and sat down, he told the little guy like this, and each of them ordered a rice noodle.
Then, he looked at Xia Zhi and the little black fish with a smile, and talked about what happened in the academy just now. "I've only been walking away for a while, why are there so many people?"
"Who knows. The little black fish said, "They look good at Sixteen, and they all want to be a matchmaker for Sixteen." ”
Li Xia heard some words and knew that this was indeed the case, so he looked at Xia Solstice with a smile.
Xia Zhi's innocent face: "I only know that women love to be matchmakers when they reach a certain age, but this is the first time I know that the gentlemen of Wenshan Academy also have this habit." ”
Li Xia laughed: "Then who is the score with." Uncle is right, they just look good-looking at sixteen. Then he asked, "Why, has it been settled?"
Xia Zhi's kitchen knife eye: "Li Xia, it's not too early or too for you to take revenge as a gentleman." ”
Li Xia smiled again: "Sixteen, I don't understand what you say." ”
"You understand that. Xia Zhi is still a kitchen knife eye, "You must be holding a grudge against my uncle when I was in Linshui Town, and I told my uncle those things about marrying your daughter-in-law." ”
Li Xia laughed in a low voice, and he resolutely denied it: "There is absolutely no such thing." Then he deliberately lowered his voice to ask the little black fish, who proposed to Xia Zhi.
The little black fish remembered a few, and the clearest and most impressive of them was of course Liu Juren.
"Senior Brother Liu's family, I know. Li Xia squinted his eyes and smiled, "Senior Brother Liu's two eldest sons have already been married. Although the third one has not yet decided on a marriage, the last time I saw Sister-in-law Liu, she said that she had fallen in love with her niece of her mother's family, but she has not officially made up her mind yet. ”
Last time, Mrs. Liu Juren came to Fucheng and once came to meet Mrs. Shanchang. When the two talked about their children's relatives, they were mainly talking about Liu Juren's two eldest sons. Liu Juren's three sons are still young, and Mrs. Liu Juren hasn't considered his family affairs at all. Of course, she seemed to be mentioning her niece, but it was something else.
Li Xia arranged Liu Juren's third son and cousin into a pair.
The little black fish sighed and expressed great disdain for this. These adults are so unorthodox that they know to make fun of them. "Sixteen, let's ignore him next time. ”
Of course, Xia Zhi didn't take this matter to heart, and passed it with a slight smile.
At this time, the young man had already brought steaming rice noodles over, and the side dishes were also very rich. Of course, Li Xia didn't forget Daqing. This time, Daqing's rice is soaked in broth and two large pieces of meat bones.
Every time I go out with the little master, there is delicious food, and Daqing is also very happy.
Li Xia told Xia Zhi and the little black fish about how to eat the bridge rice noodles, and then he was afraid that the little black fish would be burned, so he thoughtfully took care of the little black fish to eat the bridge rice noodles.
Of course, he hadn't forgotten to ask one thing: "Uncle, sixteen, what do you say you want to tell me?"
"There's something. Xia Zhi ate a small bite of rice noodles, and told Li Xia, "I have four hundred taels of silver in my hand, and I want to put it in the shop to make profits and dividends every year." Li Xia, do you have a reliable shop introduction?"
Li Xia was slightly surprised. Four hundred taels of silver was a small amount to him, but not on the summer solstice. Where did the summer solstice come from, four hundred taels of silver? But Xia Zhi didn't say it, so he didn't ask, just thinking about the question raised by Xia Zhi.
"Yes. Li Xia only thought for a moment, and then gave an affirmative answer. "Lido of the pawnshop, I'll put it in the pawnshop for you. ”
In fact, the summer solstice also thinks so. But she didn't have a familiar pawnshop, so she came to Li Xia. "Good. Xia Zhi was also very simple, and then she glanced at Li Xia, "Li Xia, why don't you ask where my money came from?"
Li Xia smiled: "If you can say it, you will naturally tell me." No need for me to ask. The implication is that if the summer solstice is inconvenient to say, he will definitely not ask.
He is like this, and the summer solstice can't help but rejoice.
"It's not that I can't say it. Xia Zhi smiled, "But since you don't have any curiosity, then I won't talk about it for now." You'll find out later. "When the competition between Gui Fang Zhai and Gui Xiang Zhai is heating up. Although Li Xia is unlikely to have any entanglement with them, Xia Zhi still tries to avoid trouble if he wants to.
Li Xia didn't know, it wasn't a bad thing.
"Good. Li Xia really didn't want to ask any more, but just told Xia Zhi, "Did you bring the money with you?" I'll send you back in a moment, put the money in the pawnshop, and start counting dividends today. ”
This is naturally good, Xia Zhi nodded again and again.
Before the bowl of rice noodles across the bridge was finished, the little guy sent by Li Shanchang arrived.
“…… Many gentlemen said that the zongzi were delicious, and asked if there were any or more, and where they could get them. The little guy asked Li Xia safely.
