Chapter 215: Old Things

Xiaoyu took a sip of hot tea lightly and said with a smile: "As soon as I heard that I had scattered all the private soldiers, I couldn't wait to test my strength." Mother, the word right is really so important, if you want me to see it, it's like a hot potato. ”

Mrs. Xia couldn't help sighing: "So your grandmother refused to let go of power easily, otherwise I am afraid that life in the mansion will be even more difficult." It's a pity that she was also half responsible for the catastrophe of the mansion back then. Alas, you can think about it, and if you are serious, I don't know why my mother's family is entangled with these private soldiers. Those people at the beginning are long gone, and whenever they can't get by, they will come to us, and when we are in trouble, we have to summon them again. ”

Xiaoyu put down the teacup, stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the leaves that were slightly starting to turn yellow outside, and said, "It's a shame that Xue Shizi is good friends with the saint, otherwise, it won't be a temptation." After that, he couldn't help but sneer: "I also found two steps for him, and now it seems that he doesn't want to tear his face with me." ”

Mrs. Xia smiled at the corner of her mouth and bowed slightly: "I decided Xue Shizi for you at the beginning, and that's what I meant." Xue Shizi and King Yi have some old grievances," paused and said: "Xue Shizi also has his own thoughts, although he is ruthless but serious, you can discuss everything with him in the future." Don't think about it like you do now, it's a play. Think more about your own mistakes and find less fault with others. ”

Xiaoyu couldn't help but think of Xue Shizi's straight back. always likes to stand proudly behind her, although she is like an old hen, but she also cares about her safety everywhere, so she hums lowly. Then he raised his head and said, "If he does not live up to me." Naturally, I won't fail him. ”

Mrs. Xia couldn't help but shake her head and shouted for Qingxing to come in. Pointing to a book in her hand, she said, "Your wedding date is approaching, so I will call you over today." I also want to tell you how to get along with everyone in my husband's house. ”

Xiaoyu was taken aback, raised her eyebrows, looked at her mother, who looked a little embarrassed, and said disapprerovingly: "Mother, there are so many sisters-in-law in our family, who are doing well, I have watched it all these years, no matter how stupid I am." Do you still need to learn? ”

Mrs. Xia's face turned red: "You have only eaten rice for a few years, and the ancients said: live to be old, learn to be old." Besides. Isn't there anything you can't see! ”

Xiaoyu's eyes widened and she thought to herself, "What didn't I see?" ”

Under her daughter's burning gaze, Mrs. Xia became more and more flustered, and pointed at Qingxing: "Well, this book is about husband and wife." You're smart. After all, there are some things that you haven't experienced, and your brother and sister-in-law are not everything...... Put it away and go back...... Take a good look, in the future, when you get married, you should put Xue Gongzi first in everything, and you can't be as reckless as before. With that, he waved his hand and motioned to Qingxing.

Qingxing hurriedly put the book in Xiaoyu's hand and advised: "This book is not easy to come by, it was when my wife got married." The dowry given by the old lady of the mother's family is the treasure at the bottom of the wife's dowry box. The girl has to be taken alive. Be sure to read this book before you get married. ”

Xiaoyu frowned and was about to flip through the book, so bluffed that Qingxing hurriedly reached out and pressed it on the book, glanced at Mrs. Xia and whispered: "Mrs. is tired, the girl goes back to the house by herself... Well... Look. If there is anything you don't understand, ask your wife again. ”

Xiaoyu looked at her mother suspiciously, Mrs. Xia lowered her eyes, touched her nose and pretended not to see it, seeing that Xiaoyu was still not leaving, she had to look down at her tea bowl, scratching the corners of her eyebrows and squeaking: "I'm tired, you go back and take a look for yourself." ”

Qingxing looked at Xiaoyu and shook her hand and walked away, then she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and asked Mrs. Xia: "Madam, why don't you say a few words to the girl, I may not be able to look at the girl's look." ”

Mrs. Xia cleared her throat and said, "Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, if she wrote "Female Commandment" and "Female Commandment" on the cover page like my mother, she would never look at it. I deliberately re-ordered a new cover yesterday. With that, he smiled with a smile on his face.

Xiaoyu returned to his room, put the book on the table and glanced at the title of the book, and saw that the cover was his mother's font, and at a glance it was newly written in the past two days. But it is not the regular script she usually uses, but the turtle bone inscription, which reads "The Art of Broom War". Lin Zi came in with the account book in his hand and saw it, and asked curiously: "Who is the broom, I have only heard of Sun Tzu's Art of War." ”

Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing: "Broom is not a grandson, she is called a good woman, the oracle bone script is written as a broom, she is a female leader in ancient times, but she does not mean a good woman." Legend has it that she was a great female general who led her troops against enemy invasion many times. ”

Lin Zi nodded and said, "In this way, this is the wife who taught you the art of war." ”

Xiaoyu pushed the book to the side and smiled: "My mother doesn't want me to be a general." Besides, there was no art of war in ancient times, and knowing ambushes and sneak attacks was already very remarkable. My mother, I must have commanded the woman, and the martyr's biography changed the title of the book to trick me into reading it, so that I won't be fooled. ”

After that, he turned around and called Yingxue in: "You received this book into my dowry box and put it at the bottom, this is my mother's dowry at the bottom of the box back then, baby." No one else gave it to me. ”

Books are precious, not to mention Mrs. Xia's family heirlooms, so Yingxue carefully held them away, Xiaoyu opened the account book in her hand and looked at the income of her restaurants. Zi Xiao picked up the curtain and came in: "Girl, the dowry from Fengxiang's side has been transported, do you want to go over and take a look." ”

Xiaoyu hurriedly threw away the ledger and ran out, and saw a young man in a beige shirt standing in the courtyard, bending down to look at a few bushes of wildflowers in the corner of the courtyard. Xiaoyu couldn't help but be stunned, the young man looked up when he heard the footsteps, and couldn't help laughing: "Little aunt, you are still so naughty, where did this wild flower come from in Fengxiang Mansion?" It turned out that this young man was like the sea, Xiaoyu couldn't help but stop and look up and down, and saw that he was tall, with a fair face, but his face was quite similar to his sister-in-law.

Xiaoyu hurriedly ran over, took his hand, and looked behind him: "Where is the sister-in-law?" What about the big brother? He hurriedly asked, "Have you eaten?" Hungry or not, ....... fast"

Ruhai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I'll come first, and they will arrive tomorrow." Your little servants are so bad, they brought me here when they heard that I had brought my dowry. I need to hurry to my mother-in-law's place, or she will have to babble again. ”

Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing: "Don't be afraid, I'll go with you, why haven't my brother and sister-in-law come over yet." Didn't the third brother and the third sister-in-law, and the fourth sister-in-law come with you? ”

When Mrs. Xia saw Ruhai straight, she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and asked, "Where is Brother Hai's daughter-in-law?" Didn't you say bring Bao'er with you? "It turns out that Ruhai has already had a son, nicknamed Bao'er. How could the old lady not be happy to see her great-great-grandson in her lifetime.

Ruhai hurriedly said: "I'm going fast, come over to report the news first, they should arrive tomorrow at noon." ”

Mrs. Xia said, "When your little aunt becomes a relative and returns to the door, I will follow you back to Fengxiang." Although this capital is gorgeous, it is not as comfortable as our Fengxiang Mansion, and the land is not good, I also have a vegetable garden in the backyard, and the fruits are not as sweet as Fengxiang's. ”

Ruhai couldn't help but laugh when she heard this: "If the mother-in-law is willing to go back, it would be really good!" Just to help Jiahui take care of Bao'er, this child is naughty, better than the little aunt back then. ”

Xiaoyu hurriedly interjected when she heard this, and wanted to change the topic: "I heard that Ruju's daughter-in-law is also pregnant, but it's a pity that their husband and wife can't come." ”

Where is the time, everyone has to go through the old things of the light rain. Xiaoyu couldn't sneak out several times, so she had to pout and say: "It's all a shadowless thing, you just made it up to lie to me because you were a few years older than me." Our family is not poor, and you want me to go out to cheat on food, drink, and clothes? I don't believe it. ”

finally saw that the old lady was tired, so she let Ruhai and the others rest. Xiaoyu returned to her small courtyard and looked at the boxes. A few of the big ones are the dowries that her brothers and sisters-in-law saved for her in the past, as well as some gifts given by Xue Shizi on New Year's Day. There is a small camphor wood box, the corners are worn out, but it is a treasure that Xiaoyu saved in the past. Xiaoyu hurriedly instructed someone to move the box in and unlock it.

Ying Xue and the others couldn't help but look inside curiously: a yellow wine gourd, a small faded garment, with a strip of rags sewn on it, a few old military books, a wooden bow and arrow, and a small slingshot made of deer tendons. A small gray cloth bag, I don't know what it is, Xiaoyu opened it curiously and saw that it was a bag of broken bones. Next to it was a small bundle of old letters, and a red hijab neatly folded, but unfortunately the color was not so red anymore, and below there were some clay dolls with missing arms and legs.

Xiaoyu was holding the red hijab in confusion, thinking: "I remember that this box is my treasure chest, it is full of my treasures, and others are not allowed to touch it, how are they all strange old things, although I don't remember that windmill, it must have been made for me by the fourth brother, and what is this bag of broken bones." ”

Although Zi Yan was standing behind, he was tall, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but exclaim: "It turns out that our girl's deception everywhere is true, this must be the hijab of the fifth grandmother back then." Girl, that riding costume was coaxed by you from Princess Xing. ”

Xiao Yu hurriedly closed the cabinet and said with a straight face: "When is this, I have to get up early tomorrow to entertain the people from Feng Xiang's side." Go and go, and give me a sleep. ”

Seeing that everyone had dispersed, he opened the box and looked again, shaking the flask, which was already empty. Naturally, I couldn't remember where I got a lot of things, and after looking at them for a while, I closed the box gloomily, and thought, "These are all treasures that I once regarded as life, and I didn't want to show them in front of anyone." Now that time has passed, these treasures have become useless old things, and even the memories of these old things are gone. Now that I have new babies, will these new babies be like them in a decade or twenty years? (To be continued......)
