Xiao Xia gave birth to eight sons, how can she not know the boy's self-esteem. He didn't speak, but just stroked his head and let him cry. After crying for a while, his voice gradually weakened, and the boy squirmed for a while before slowly moving away.

Mrs. Xiao Xia suddenly patted her head and said, "Oh, I forgot the noodles in the pot." So saying, he got up and left.

The young man was a little ashamed of his wanton indulgence just now, and he didn't know what to do. Na Cheng thought that this country woman actually talked to herself and left, and couldn't help but sigh, always a little less embarrassed. At this time, there was nothing to do, so I took a closer look at the room.

But it's a small hut, a bed, and a chair. There was a small table under the window, and the teacup he had just drunk from was placed. Although they are all old things, they are all clean and neat. I think it's a guest room where people often stay.

Just looking at it, a little girl outside the door said crisply: "Guest officer, your face is ready." Before he could reply, a small body squeezed in along the crack in the hidden door. didn't turn back, kicked the little embroidered shoe back slightly, and closed the door, but it was the clever little girl who saved him. Wearing a pink gown, combing two buns, a little chubby face flushed, looking cute.

"Oh, officer, you don't know. It took a long time to grab this job that served you. As soon as the little girl entered the door, the noodle bowl was opened before it was put down. As he spoke, he handed him the handkerchief that was placed on his wrist.

Rao is young man has just experienced life and death, and he can't bear to laugh at this time. Who knew that the little girl then squeezed her eyebrows and said, "You can make my mother's clothes dirty enough." ”

The young man had just wiped his face clean, and he could see that his skin was very fair, and he had big eyes. Xu is still young, and he looks handsome and not heroic. At this time, the smile on his face had not faded, and a little embarrassed anger immediately appeared, which made his cheeks flush a little.

After the little girl finished speaking, she didn't even blink her eyes, and immediately slipped to the door like a loach: "Eat, eat, my sixth brother will come to deliver hot water in a while." Before the words fell, the man was gone.

It made the young man stunned, and thought to himself: I don't know what the name of this little girl is.

Xiaoyu jumped upstairs in three steps and two steps, and saw that her mother had already changed her clothes. Only then did he rub over, "Mother, that son is really beautiful." He looks very rich, we saved his life, will he give us a lot of gold?"

Xiao Xia Pozi held her hair and was inserting a hairpin in the mirror, and said absentmindedly: "Yes, how could not." ”

Xiaoyu couldn't stop giggling when she heard this, and she was thinking: "Buy thirty hairpins for my mother, and then buy a large cart of lipstick." ”

Xiao Xia's mother-in-law also ignored her, if she asked her why she wanted a big car of lipstick, she would definitely say that her sister-in-law had a big mouth and used more than others.

Instead, he turned his head and asked her, "Why did you come up with such an idea?" Xiao Xia usually pays attention to a few younger children, the eighth brother is the seventh brother's little heel, and the seventh brother will do whatever he says. Xiaoyu has always been mediocre in her studies, and she has never shown any special talent. But every time she came to that critical moment, she always had a ghost idea.

Xiaoyu listened and looked at Xiao Xia in surprise. Look: I'm stupid enough, mother, how are you stupider than me.

Xiao Xia sighed, that idea was not very ingenious to be honest. It's just that the bunker is getting bigger and bigger, and everyone is scattered in horror, and it's too late to escape, where will anyone calm down and think of a way to save people. Looking at it this way, light rain is rare.

Xiaoyu tilted her head and thought for a while, as if she had an understanding, and whispered next to Xiao Xia's mother-in-law: "I don't think those two are good things, they actually want him to die, so I'm not convinced." ”

Xiao Xia Pozi was shocked: "How do you see it?" When those people came in, Xiao Xia Pozi had already seen that there was something wrong with the two sons and brothers and a few of her subordinates, but it was based on the accumulation of words and expressions over the years, and analyzed from those subtle eyes and interactions. I couldn't help but secretly wonder in my heart, could it be that Xiaoyu was so small that he could observe it so meticulously.

Xiaoyu snorted: "It's not a good thing to look at two." ”

Xiao Xia Pozi calmed down and slowly guided, "But seeing that there is something wrong with their expressions? Do you still hear what they say? Or do you have any gestures? It's not just empty words and white teeth that people are bad people." ”

Xiaoyu said humbly: "That kind of person, I regret it after one glance, and I have to look at it a second time." ”

Xiao Xia was discouraged.

As he was talking, the sixth brother came over and said that the boy had cleaned up and wanted to come and thank him.

Mrs. Xiao Xia hurriedly asked Xiaoyu to invite Mrs. Xia to the hall together.

The young man was wearing the clothes of the seventh brother of the Xia family at this time, if it weren't for his extraordinarily fair skin, he would look like a child of the Xia family. Seeing Xiao Xia's mother-in-law and Lao Xia's mother-in-law, she hurriedly shook her to the ground: "Da En is not grateful, in the Xue family in the lower capital, single name Yu." If it is useful in the future, I will help you. ”

Xiao Xia's mother-in-law hurriedly asked the sixth brother to help him up. Only then did he take a closer look, although his face was still a little pale, his demeanor was already very calm. I don't think it's an ordinary child, so I can be calm and calm on my face so quickly.

introduced two other sons, the round-faced surname Fang Wenyuan is Xue Yu's cousin, and he looks seventeen or eight years old. The one with the pointed chin is the round-faced cousin, named Wu Zhixiao, who is also around twenty years old. Several people are from the capital, but it is Fang Wenyuan's mother who has a Zhuangzi in the vicinity.

Because Xue Yu had just lost his mother, his grandmother was afraid that he would be depressed, so she asked him to go hunting in his uncle's Zhuangzi to relax. Because Xue Yu was in his mother's filial piety period, he couldn't bear to kill, and a few people rode to Zhaowang Village without incident.

When Mrs. Xia heard this, she couldn't help sighing. said on the side: "In the future, don't dare to be so careless." In case there is a good one, how can you be worthy of your dead mother. ”

When Xue Yu heard this, he immediately stood up respectfully, and said yes again and again, he was like the grandson of Old Xia's mother-in-law.

It's not good for Mrs. Xia to say anything.

and let a few of them follow a few brothers of the Xia family. Xue Yu is the same age as Brother Seven, and he has two birthdays than the two, but he is two months younger than Brother Seven.

So, the seventh brother deliberately stood with Xue Yu and showed it to the old lady. The seventh brother and starling of the Xia family have not done any farm work because they are young, so they are all born very white. It's just that the seventh brother looks quite like Xiao Xia's mother-in-law, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes. Starling looks more like his father, and he is a bit heroic. Lao Xia looked at it again and again, and felt more and more that her seventh brother's appearance was good.

A few boys talked about it again, but it was nothing more than the experience of reading. They hated each other a little late. Yu Xia's sixth brother had a few brothers, and he thought that their sons and brothers must be unlearned. Yu Xue Yu always thought that they were rural villagers, and they didn't know a few big characters.

Unexpectedly, on the one hand, there were hills and valleys in the chest, and on the other hand, he was full of sage books. If it weren't for the reminders from the people, it would have been a candlelight night talk.

It's just that it's getting late, and it's too dangerous to travel at night, so Xiao Xia Pozi kept them overnight and waited for dawn before going back.

A few people said: "I came here on horseback, but it will only take two or three hours to go back at this moment, and the sky is still very long at this time." Besides, I also sent someone to reply to my mother earlier, and if I don't go back, I will worry about my family. ”

Xiao Xia thought about it, firstly, there was no place to place so many people in the house, and secondly, she didn't know where they came from. Thinking that there were many of them, and now that it was a peaceful and prosperous world, it was up to them to go.

At this time, someone sent the dried clothes up, and Xue Yu followed Fang Wenyuan and Wu Zhixiao to leave.

The sixth brother sent them to the entrance of the village, and Xue Yu took off the jade pendant on his waist: "Give this to Sister Xiaoyu to play." Today thanks to her. Seeing that the sixth brother hesitated, he said: "Looking for me in the capital in the future, it is also a token." ”

The sixth brother thought about it for a while, and didn't accept it as if he couldn't believe the words of kindness he said, so he took it. But in his heart, he thought, his family is just a country boy, where is there anything to ask to go to the capital? However, this jade pendant is a good color, the whole body is turquoise, and it is slippery and cool to the touch. I just took it to my sister to play with.

This matter was just a breeze blowing across the water in the Xia family, and there were not even ripples left.

But it was Xia San's sister-in-law and Xia Si's sister-in-law who were pregnant again. The third sister-in-law simply moved to the countryside to live, one to raise the fetus, and the other to take care of her son Ruju. After the New Year, starlings still have a few such as mountains, such as Chen, and such horses to participate in the county examination. And because the fifth sister-in-law had just given birth to Rutao and was still in confinement, Xiao Xia's mother-in-law didn't want to ask her to come over to help, so she had to take care of the housework by herself.

The Xia family already has a few talents, like Sixth Brother and Ruhai, who were all born in the middle of last year. Tong Sheng is like picking up things for the children of the Xia family, but the seventh brother is expected by the elders this time. It was also Xia Xiucai who was a little selfish, and deliberately kept Seventh Brother for a year, wanting him to be the first in the case.

Fortunately, although the third and fourth sisters-in-law can't do some heavy work, they often help light the fire and pick vegetables in the stove. It's not that you're lazy just because you're pregnant. That's it, in the days when the year is approaching, Sister-in-law Xia and Mother-in-law Xia are still busy. Even Mrs. Xia followed to help take care of Ting'er, the third sister-in-law, Yan'er, the fourth sister-in-law, and Qin'er, the eldest sister-in-law.

It's been a busy year. The third brother, fifth brother, and fifth sister-in-law also brought Ruchen and Rutao back for the New Year, which made Xiaoxia's mother-in-law breathe a sigh of relief.

The fifth brother talked to the eldest brother about asking Ruhai to go to the county government to help him. The eldest brother was also very happy to hear this, if the eldest son could be like the fifth brother, there would be no need to worry about the top door pillar in the future.

The sister-in-law was also very happy to hear it, and she was so happy for several days. The third sister-in-law pursed her lips when she saw it, and when she saw that there was no one in the stove, she whispered: "Sister-in-law, you are really a sincere person." ”

The sister-in-law was happy at this time, and when she heard this, she thought she was praising her: "But it's not! "Over the years, the fifth brother and the second brother have taken a lot of money from home. Although she doesn't know the exact number, but in the past few years, the dozens of acres of land added to the family, as well as the three shops opened by the third brother's family later, two of them are all using this money.

"Sister-in-law, you didn't ask if Ruhai's nephew became the secretary. What is Uncle Fifth doing? Don't rob Uncle Five's job. The third sister-in-law asked as if unintentionally while picking vegetables.

"Can you not ask? You don't know who your eldest brother is. The fifth uncle said that in two years, he will participate in the imperial examination and become a big official. The sister-in-law also put her heart in her stomach after hearing this.

The third sister-in-law was happy when she heard this: "The imperial examination is so easy to take the exam? I don't know what his fifth aunt thinks, I heard that it cost the Yue family a lot of money, what can I do if I can't pass the exam?"

When the sister-in-law heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and her face couldn't help but sink.
