Chapter 118: Return to Yanbei

Wen Niang watched in surprise as Xiao Yu, who was wearing a garnet-red pleated skirt, walked out of the bedroom with a bun with a cloud bun, and did not forget to wink at her when she passed by. Since Yingxue came over with the sixth master, Xiaoyu and the two of her hid in the room and cooed, Wen Niang always thought that Yingxue was the big girl in his house. I didn't expect that this Xia Jiuye was a woman, and it took a long time to understand: "No wonder she lives in the inner courtyard, and she always takes herself with her when she goes out, but her brother is often idle in the front yard." ”

When it was time for the autumn harvest, news came from Yanbei: Xiao Xia's mother-in-law brought her fifth and sixth sisters-in-law to Yanbei.

Xiaoyu sat in the study for a day, and discussed with Xia Liuye in the evening: "I will go back at this time, and it will be there in seven or eight days, and I want to come to my mother to dispose of everything that should be disposed of, and then, the autumn harvest is busy again, and she will prepare for the New Year, she may forget me." ”

The sixth master looked at her weak heart, and couldn't help laughing: "I knew today, why bother in the first place." ”

Xiaoyu said horizontally: "You have to go through this way horizontally and vertically, and if you take this knife early, it's just after you are done." I'll help you get the house and courtyard here, and I'll discuss it with my sixth sister-in-law when I go back. When she came, she happened to bring some more cloth, household goods. Sixth brother, your belongings here are also neat. ”

It doesn't hurt for the sixth master to think about it, after the autumn harvest, King Yi will patrol the border again as usual, when the prince's birthday is approaching, and the prince plans to offer five hundred ironclad soldiers here. At that time, if Xiaoyu is here, it will be troublesome, so it is better to send her back to Yanbei.

Because Yingxue was not good at riding horses, Xiaoyu and Starling walked slowly all the way. said that it was seven or eight days, but it took ten days to reach Yanbei. Xiaoyu was in the carriage, changed seven or eight sets of clothes, and the tattooed mother's eyes were astringent, and finally heard Xiaoyu nod and said: "That's it, it seems that I am older, if my mother wants to reprimand me, seeing that I am old, maybe she can save me some face." ”

Looking at Xiao Yu, who was wearing a black silk Yuehua skirt, walking from the side courtyard with a hundred flowers and a bun, Xiao Xia's heart couldn't help but be sour, and she looked back at Xia Xiucai, whose eyes were a little moist, and sighed: "This girl, this girl." ”

Xia Xiucai had already pulled up Xiaoyu who was kneeling on the ground regardless of it, Xiaoyu forgot what she had thought of in her heart, and hurriedly took a handkerchief to help her father wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked at her mother, who was facing stiffly, and then knelt down again: "The mother of the child is worried, and the child's unfilial piety makes the parents worry." ”

Xiao Xia sighed, pulled her up and reprimanded: "Do Zhang Zuozhi at this time, why don't you want to think about today when you are acting arbitrarily." Go and make amends to your brother, sister-in-law, and nephews."

Xia Xiucai was still a little unhappy, and followed Xiaoyu with a tiger face.

Xiaoyu walked in front of the second master, and when she saw that the second grandmother was not there, she hurriedly suppressed the doubts in her heart, and said with a deep blessing: "It's all Jiu'er's bad, which makes the second brother and sister-in-law worried." If there is such a thing in the future, it will definitely be a prophet for the brothers. As soon as Xiaoyu wanted to get up, she remembered her mother's throat-clearing voice in her ears, so she had to continue: "These things should be handled by my brothers, and Jiu'er will not dare to act recklessly in the future." ”

Only then did Xiao Xia let out a long sigh, and Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself: "I finally passed the test." The second brother patted her head and didn't speak. Xiaoyu walked in front of the eighth master and Rushan again: "Eighth brother and Rushan were frightened this time, Jiu'er is too willful." ”

Rushan hurriedly turned his body and said with a smile: "If there is something to do, my nephew will do his best, and my aunt will tell me if I have something in the future." ”

Because the fifth brother was not there, Xiaoyu gave the fifth grandmother a salute: "It makes the fifth brother tired and running." ”

The fifth grandmother sneered, and hurriedly took her hand and smiled: "This is what he should do as an elder brother." But he was busy in the county and neglected his sister. If you had picked up your sister early, there would have been no mess in the future. ”

The sixth sister-in-law also walked over with a smile: "Speaking of which, sister-in-law would like to thank my sister, if it weren't for my sister's reminder this time, your sixth brother's errand would only be more auspicious." ”

The fifth sister-in-law also followed and changed the topic: "The ninth sister has really grown up, walking on the street, if no one sues me, I won't dare to admit it." ”

The sixth sister-in-law smiled and continued: "No, that is, a little girl of her age dares to wear such a soap color, this skirt is..." ”

Ying Xue hurriedly saluted: "Don't dare to be." How can a slave compare with a few grandmothers!"

The fifth sister-in-law and the sixth sister-in-law glanced at each other, and couldn't help but smile: "We have become grandmothers too, and that mother-in-law is..."

The sixth grandmother and the fifth grandmother pretended to go to salute Xiao Xia's mother-in-law: "I've seen the eldest lady." When the family heard this, they burst into laughter.

The sixth grandmother looked back and saw that Xiaoyu was still holding the little lady's shelf, so she couldn't help teasing: "Second brother, Yanzhao, look at whether this soap-colored dress makes Jiu'er's little face a little whiter." ”

Xiaoyu couldn't hold back any longer, and threw herself into the arms of the sixth grandmother with a smile: "Sister-in-law is really, Yingxue said that the county lords in the palace don't have the bearing of my body." ”

The eighth master quipped: "Alas, or I would say it anyway: Lord Yi is really a blessing." ”

Xiaoyu pulled the second brother and said: "Second brother, you don't care about them, one or two come to bully me!" Several people entered the dining room while talking, the second master was astringent in his heart, and his smile was a little reluctant, and he stroked Xiaoyu's head and said: "I brought you a good horse this time..." ”

Xiaoyu wanted to go to see the horse in a hurry, but at this time she could only sit down angrily and said: "My sister-in-law just hurts my mother, so I don't have to eat because of my stomach, so I saved a meal for my mother." ”

Everyone sat down in turn, and Xiaoyu caught a glimpse of Rulan and Rutao in the fifth brother's house, and Qi'er was having fun. pressed the question in his heart, and chased after his mother to ask about the income of his restaurant and the harvest of the crops in the field.

The sixth sister-in-law smiled: "I said that I would rest for a few more days, but my mother said that Jiu'er must ask her about the harvest of those plots of land, and you should hurry up and help her look at the account." Where does she want me to help watch, her little tent, second brother, don't you see, that little girl's little face with a big palm is just like this, crackling and crackling abacus is even worse than my mother's third brother and sister. As he spoke, he spread his hands and looked helpless.

Xiaoyu pointed at the table with his index finger and urged: "Oh, I'm going to die in this life." After talking about this half a day, sister-in-law, you talked about it from your mother-in-law's house to your mother's family, how do I earn, good sister-in-law, sixth grandmother, please, hurry up and tell me. ”

The fifth grandmother hurriedly ordered someone to ask Lin Zi to bring the account book over: "This sentence or two sentences, but I can't say it clearly, you, it's better to count your dowry slowly, don't miss anything." ”

The second master smiled and watched his younger siblings joking with Jiu'er, but his heart was like playing a five-flavor bottle: "Sure enough, people like us can't climb high, and the fifth brother and sister and Brother Liu are at ease, even if the eldest sister-in-law is just a rough village woman in the countryside, she can be happy in front of her mother." Then he thought again: "Speaking of which, it's still like no, my mother is also from a big family, and she hasn't been living well all these years." It's not right to think about it: "Daddy is an only son, and my mother naturally doesn't have so many brothers and sisters and concubines to socialize, if there is..." Now, the sister-in-law's disagreement has become a fact.

Xiaoyu saw that the second brother was in a trance, and couldn't help but feel sad: "It's always me who has a bad temperament, if it drags on for a few more days, the second sister-in-law won't have to carry such a big black cauldron." While thinking about it, he hurriedly flipped through the account book, got up and said to the sixth grandmother: "My girl must have learned a few tricks from my sister-in-law, I taught her earlier, and the account is not like this." Now it's clearer and more detailed. ”

The sixth grandmother said: "If you want to pass the test with such a blessing, this is not good, you have to add some boxes to Ling'er." ”

Ling'er was already four or five years old, and when she heard this, she asked childishly: "Mother, what is a box!" Ruchen pulled Ling'er aside and explained slowly.

Xiaoyu laughed with the fifth sister-in-law: "Brother Chen has inherited the mantle of his father's tireless teaching. ”

There were five sisters-in-law and six sisters-in-law who had fun, and the meal was quite lively, and Xiaoyu was not trained too badly. After eating, I went to my mother's room with my five sisters-in-law and six sisters-in-law, and told each other about the situation after parting, and knew that Ruhai had made a marriage with a little lady of the Lu family: "She is a very gentle and courteous person, but she is slightly inferior to the sea in appearance, but it is excellent to be a clan wife." Here, Rushan has set the twelve mothers of the Liu family, I saw it before, and it is also a very powerful hidden needle, I hope that Rushan will fight on the way, otherwise it will be difficult for the two of them to meet in one place. ”

Xiaoyu also told her mother about the things of the fifth master and the sixth master, and she had to tease the two sisters-in-law so that she could win back a game. It was not until the evening that he returned to his small courtyard, and Lin Zi and the other girls in the courtyard came to salute. The courtyard is still the same, but the room has been redecorated again. Lin Zi said on the side: "It's all done by my wife herself, and it's too slow to say that you are too simple." ”

Xiaoyu sighed, thinking that this was a child with a mother. When I first settled in this house, the days were a little tight, I only bought a bed in my room, and I drank tea on the dressing table, and the second sister-in-law was cold, and she only came in two or three times, and she didn't pay attention to it. turned his head and asked about the second sister-in-law, Lin Zi sighed: "We don't know much about being subordinates, I heard that the second grandmother is afraid of ghosts, and she still refuses to move in, so the second master took her to Mochiyue Mountain." The wife said that the grandchildren had to grow up together, so she left Rulan behind. The second grandmother is also stubborn, and she has never come to see it. Occasionally, the second master came over and took Rulan out. ”

Xiaoyu was speechless, and secretly thought: "Second sister-in-law, don't you plan to spend time with our family?" R1152
