088 Gift-giver
Zhou Guangzu's room was much quieter, and when the Zhang family told Lin Xiaojue's plan to follow the eldest lord who returned from the yamen, Zhou Guangzu was just surprised: "This is not appropriate, other people's families are celebrating the New Year, let's move this auspicious?"
Zhang shook his head: "The old lady didn't say anything, Qingye said, Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve is the alternation of the old and the new, the old does not go to the new and does not come, she said that it happened to move that day, and the old and the new were replaced, otherwise why eat dumplings on the New Year's Day?"
Dumplings are Jiaozi, the meaning of alternating the old and the new.
Zhou Guangzu raised his eyebrows: "She is going to give the Zhou family a new atmosphere, our niece is not ordinary, you don't know when you grow up at home, colleagues often inquire with me in the past two days, and ask me if there is a fairy lady in my family, I started to wonder, and later I learned that our family Qingye saved Mr. Xu Wenxin, and this child also reported my name, so everyone came to ask me." In the end, I was relieved to be honored.
Zhang's face was passionate: "There is such a thing?"
Zhou Guangzu teased: "No, if this goes on for a long time, I will be hot." ”
It's pitiful that he only knows that Lin Xiaojue did good deeds to save his life, and when he did bad things, he also reported his family history, but there were few people who paid attention to bad things, but he also saved a lot of enemies.
Skipping the affairs of the enemy family for the time being, Zhou Guangzu talked about Lin Xiaojue's ability outside, and the Zhang family was also happy when he heard it, everyone hoped that their children would be successful.
In the end, Zhang said: "Then whether we move or not, we have to listen to Qingye, right?"
Zhou Guangzu looked at his wife with a smile: "This yard is also rented, not to mention my own home." There's no nostalgia either, just move it. ”
In fact, the Zhang family also thinks so, not only is it big over there, but the key is their Zhou family's own industry in the future, don't care who spends money to buy it, his surname is Zhou, but this yard is owned by others sooner or later.
She smiled: "I'll fetch water for the master to wash his feet, and we're going to move." ”
Lin Xiaojue chose the day to move, and she told the Zhou family that it was actually a notice, whether they agreed or not. It's not a negotiation to have to move her. So in the next few days, she was busy with the affairs of the new house, and took very little care of the four alleys.
She doesn't alarm others, and others don't bother to pay attention to her.
On the twenty-second day, the neighbor killed the pig, and the yard rented by the Zhou Mansion was not big. Since it's from the same street. The next door neighbor's house is naturally not big. He killed him again at the gate, so that the sound of the pig could be heard in the whole street.
Zhou Qinghan's mother-in-law sent someone to give eight gifts, which were considered New Year's gifts for the Zhou family. But Liu waited for Zhou Qingyun's share, and he didn't wait until noon.
Liu and the other daughters were anxious, and their heads were lying on their stomachs in the cracks of the door to look, and they happened to be seen by the neighbor's wife.
The lady also often gossiped with Liu, at that time, the old lady Zhou was seriously ill, and the medicine prescribed by the witch doctor should use the flesh and blood of the filial son and grandson as the medicine primer, otherwise the disease will not be better, and then the old lady has not been well, and the reputation of the descendants of the Zhou family for not being filial is spread by this lady.
Liu was the first to tell her, so when rumors flew all over the city, Liu knew who betrayed her.
So she has long hated this lady in her heart, but she should still talk when she meets.
The lady shouted to Liu: "Second lady, this family just killed pigs today, and I will come over for dinner later." ”
Seeing that he couldn't hide, Liu opened the door to reveal his entire body, and said, "Don't go, there are guests at home today." ”
"What kind of guest, why didn't I hear it?" said the lady to Liu, as she instructed the pig killer to unload the meat.
"Oh yes. After she finished talking to the pig killer, she raised her head and looked at Liu: "This year is approaching, why is there no movement in your house?
The two families are so close, everyone knows who is like and what they are, in the eyes of the neighbors, the Zhou family is poor and dead.
There is no one in the family who celebrates the New Year, Zhou Guangzu is a family member, but he has no money, and he is rich in the little stammer, but he can't see the end of the dragon all day long. As soon as Liu heard the lady's words, he understood that this was clearly because their family had no money to buy pigs to kill.
Liu wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and said: "Our old lady is just sick, so she can't see blood, so she won't kill pigs." ”
The lady smiled and raised her eyebrows, and changed her words: "No, the old lady is sick, and my family didn't want to waste it so much, but my aunt's family had to send it, and the child was filial and couldn't be pushed away." ”
You see how annoying it is.
Their family has three daughters and one son, your son is old and the child is not married, the three girls are married, and the capital moves things to her mother's house.
Liu Shi looked at the people and thought about his own girl again, why didn't he come yet? His face was gray for a while, and he forced out a smile and didn't speak.
Mama Wei listened really in the gate, and said in her heart, these two ladies are usually used to playing tricks with their families, but the young ladies are not as competitive as other young ladies, and she can't stand up outside.
Seeing that the Liu family had suffered a "defeat", the lady next door raised her arrogant chin and said to the pig killer: "If you unload it, put it in the courtyard, don't lose it." Then he said to Liu: "Then I'll go back to the hospital first, and there will be people at home in a while, so I have to eat food." ”
Liu thought of the former high gate and deep courtyard of their Zhou family, she didn't even deserve to look at it, but now she came to taunt her, her hands trembled angrily, and she didn't return the salute, and she was about to go back with a handkerchief.
At this time, I heard someone behind me: "Is this Zhou Guangzu Zhou's family?"
Got guests?
Liu turned around, and the lady next door was walking at the door, and she pricked up her ears when she heard the voice.
Liu saw that the person who came was dressed as a small house, but the clothes were very delicate, looking like a big family, and he also brought two subordinates, and the two villains each pushed a small cart, and the small cart stopped at the place where the arm killed the pig.
"yes, is there anything you guys are up to?" asked the little guy.
The little guy saw that he had found the right one, and hurriedly said to the subordinate behind him: "Push it over, this is the Zhou family." As he spoke, he turned his head to Liu and said, "What do you call Madame?"
The lady next door was quick to talk and asked, "This is the second lady of the Zhou Mansion, why are you here?"
The little guy was even happier, and said: "The little one is the little steward of Xu Wenxin and Xu Da Confucian's mansion, it's going to be the New Year, and the head of the family sent the little one over to send some New Year's goods to the young lady, which is a little meaning, not a tribute." ”
It's really a gift, Liu was a little confused: "Who is Xu Wenxin?"
She looked at the lady next door.
The lady next door shook her head: "I haven't heard of it." ”
Da Ru is not as famous as a piece of pork in the eyes of these deep house women.
In short, it's a gift, if you haven't heard of it, you haven't heard of it, Liu saw that the two carts also had a lot of things, and he mentioned the corner of his mouth to the lady next door, and there were also people in my family who gave gifts.
Then he said to the little girl: "Come in and have a sip of tea, see if the child is tired......"
The lady next door snorted in her heart when she saw her happy fart, isn't it just an unknown person sending some New Year's goods? What's the big deal, two cars look like a lot, maybe it's what, maybe it's two carts of flour.
She sneered inwardly and turned away again.
At this time, there was another high voice behind him: "Is this Zhou Guangzu Zhou's family?" This person's voice was very rough, as if he had practiced martial arts.
Liu Shi let a wave of guests enter the hospital, and when he went out, his heart moved, this is more than two cars, ten picks, is this a hire or a gift?
Liu Shi said boldly: "This is the Zhou family, who are you looking for?"
The guards of the Xianwang Mansion sent the guests in a tone and said: "The little one is the people of the Xianwang Mansion, and it is going to be the New Year, and the prince and the princess asked the little one to send some New Year's goods to the young lady, which is a little meaning, not a tribute." ”
This is the Xianwang Mansion, Liu's eyes widened and looked at the arm lady, and the lady next door was also stunned, just now she said that the family was a gift from an unknown person, and now it is indeed the Xianwang Mansion.
Mrs. Arm looked at Liu's gaze quite uncomfortably, and said with some sourness: "The Xianwang Mansion has given you face like this, the second lady has never said it before, is this to prevent her sister?"
Liu's heart moved, Lin Xiaojue and Fu Wan are good, it seems that it is not a good game for nothing, and at this time it can really support her scene. She straightened up and said to herself, I won't tell you what? Let you know that any good thing has to be messed up.
She smiled and said, "It's all uncles and my masters, how can we little women know so much, hehehe." "It's hard to laugh.
The guard suddenly interjected: "This lady, this is given to Miss by the prince and the princess, and Miss is the savior of the county lord of my family." ”
Liu squinted at the guard in front of him, and didn't care if he saved his life or not, isn't it just thanks? If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person.
At this time, although the lady next door only listened to the word Miss, she didn't dare to make fun of Liu easily, she asked: "The young lady in the adult's mouth, which young lady of the Zhou family is it?"
Liu preemptively replied to her: "Of course our family is Qingye, my niece, you don't know how capable you are, you are good friends with the county lord, hehehe." He smiled and ignored the lady next door, and invited the guards of the Xianwang Mansion to enter the courtyard.
Mama Wei looked strange behind the door, and said in her heart, what did the second lady collide with today......? It's really hehehe.
Liu and the lady next door can't enter the hospital, because the Zhou family doesn't know what luck they have gone, and there are successive families of princes and important ministers to give gifts to the Zhou family, the Han family of the Ministry of Etiquette, the Han family of the Ministry of Etiquette, the Han family of the household servant, the Liang family of the Ministry of Officials, and the Chen Guogong Mansion did not come, but Chen Guogong's son Feng Shaoyu sent someone to come, which is not similar to Chen Guogong, and there are twelve commanders of the pro-army Hou Changming, the son of Lord Yang, Yang Yunfei......
As soon as one family left, another family came.
The husband next door counted these people and said to the Liu family: "Sister, almost half of the imperial court has come, your family is a relative of the emperor, a wealthy nobleman, you say you, oops......." "Then what do you compare to my little family?" her tone was unwilling and a little resentful.
Liu is also embarrassed, who knew that his niece was so capable?
She herself looked at the gifts all over the yard and seemed to have forgotten how much she hated this niece at first. (To be continued.) )
