262 Xue Niangzi
readx;?“ The sage of "generosity and benevolence" was talking to Lan Niangniang at that time: "What did Mrs. Xue say in her letter? ”
Lan Niangniang tugged at the corners of her mouth and lowered her head and sneered: "If it weren't for my cleverness back then, I pulled Sister Xia to marry Jinlan, and now the saint is afraid that he won't even bother to look at me." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" thought like this in his heart, but his face did not show a trace, he raised his hand and handed over the letter, squinted and smiled: "What else can I say about my sister's letter, but the left is her eldest sister... The temperament is too soft... It's too roundabout. Their husbands and wives quarreled, and the eldest sister helped whoever she saw was at a loss. Sister Xia pretended to be pitiful every time, and the eldest sister helped her again and again, making General Xue so angry that she vomited blood. Sister Xia said that this child is kind-hearted, but she is afraid that she will suffer in the future, so she asked me to stare at King Jing and ask me to say that these two little guys are really a couple. ”
The sage raised his eyebrows and did not answer the letter, and secretly wondered in his heart: "In the end, the Lan family was fought out on the battlefield, and the children who were raised were reckless and did not know the severity, and they were far inferior to Song Zhaoyi's godson. When he thought of this, his mind changed: "I have so many sons, and I can be very satisfied with them seriously, and there is not one, alas! No wonder my grandfather sighed when he saw his father......"
Lan Niangniang couldn't help but be a little bored when she saw him silent, she shrank her hand and said with a smile: "Why did the saint suddenly remember to summon General Xue back to Beijing, my father and third brother got along very well with General Xue, and I was very reluctant." Speaking of which, General Xue is young, strong, and full of momentum, and he pushed the border city to Xiliang for more than a hundred miles. Sister Xia likes to run horses, and she is reluctant to come back after having fun there. ”
The saint's face sank and he snorted coldly, "She's still not happy?" Since she went to Xiliang, it hasn't stopped. The Xijon people complained twice in three days, either robbing their cattle and sheep or taking their BMWs, but they didn't pick what they saw, and they robbed whatever they saw. ”
Lan Niangniang couldn't help but be surprised and happy, and forcibly didn't show her whereabouts, and secretly thought: "In the early years, the first emperor left General Xue in Xiliang, and my father and brother only regarded it as a saint and didn't like the Lan family's power, so he sent henchmen to suppress them, so that my father and brother tolerated everywhere and made them and his wife majestic for several years. ”
She was thinking about it here, but the saint opposite couldn't help but get more and more angry, stretched out his index finger and knocked on the table: "Hmph! In the early days of the dynasty today, the envoy of Xirong also said that our Great Zhou burned and looted at the border pass, and there was a nest of military bandits, but they didn't know anything about it. When I didn't ascend the throne, I often heard people say that it was common for the people in the Xirong border pass to be robbed by gangsters, and if there was a little toughness and wanted to resist, General Xue couldn't wait to lead his subordinates to "lower than the foreign enemy". If I don't call them back, we won't be able to do anything about the mutual market and study tours. These envoys went to the court to complain when they had nothing to do, crying and crying, which annoyed me a headache. ”
Lan Niangniang persuaded while thinking about sending news to her family: "Don't worry, Shengshang, this time Sister Xia is back, and the concubine will tell her well." ”
The saint was stunned and thought to himself, "Your mind is less than half that of Mrs. Xue... She's the most thoughtful... Don't spoil me. Thinking of this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I have to worry about these things with General Xue." But Kun'er, you have to confess, don't be like when you were a child...... Last time, Mrs. Xue went back to Fengxiang to go back to the capital to see the old days, Kun'er almost pushed Miss Xue into the river, Mrs. Xue didn't care about our family for a long time for this matter, and when she heard that someone's wine would have Kun'er, she refused to go. ”
Lan Niangniang was scolded by what he said, and she couldn't help complaining in her heart that Xiaoyu was stingy, and she was afraid that the saint would see it, so she interrupted: "Why do the people of Xiliang scold our army and bandits, isn't it that General Xue is not strict in governing the army, and there are ruffians in the army?" When I was a child, I listened to my father teach my brother a lesson, and it was taboo that military discipline was not strict."
The saint was stunned for a moment and pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled secretly: "What kind of bandit nest, in fact, it is a nest of military bandits." It's just that it's not good to say this to Lan Niangniang, so she changed the topic and said: "Mrs. Xue didn't get along with General Xue's younger brother two years ago, and I heard that the shops in the old capital were forcibly occupied by Xue Qian?" Xue Qian is still very respectful in serving Mrs. Xue, how can he become a pro and confused. ”
Seeing that the sage didn't talk about her son, Lan Niangniang breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "Some of the shops in the old capital were originally the public property of the Guogong Mansion, General Xue is the son, and Xue Qian is also the son, which is not a private occupation." Sister Xia is also domineering, and she has not been very harmonious with her mother's family in recent years, the year before last, her sister-in-law grinded her to give her nephew several horse farms in Yanbei and Northwest to her mother's nephew. I heard that it didn't pass last year. Alas, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. ”
The saint nodded, and said, "She has lost a few arms in the past few years. ”
Lan Niangniang nodded: "Except for General Yang, who still sends the festival on time, An Ge has not sent anyone over." However, she doesn't have any other thoughts now, they are all her little ladies, the couple is just like that, full of hope that their son will become a dragon, and I look at it a little too much. ”
The couple talked some more gossip in Beijing, and the saint found a way to go to the front hall.
At this time, in General Xue's Mansion, the subordinates were busy packing their luggage, Zhong Min led her daughter Liang Xin'er and walked quickly through the West Cross Courtyard, Xin'er looked at the courtyard curiously: "Mother, didn't you say that this is the General's Mansion?" Why is it that their house has nothing, and the yard is empty, which is worse than ours? ”
Zhong Min said with a smile: "Your ninth aunt and ninth aunt don't like those decorations, it's dry and cold here, and the flowers and plants are not easy to serve, so it's just empty." After that, he glanced around and sighed: "But this is too angry, and the empty can run the horse." ”
Liang Xin'er said regretfully: "It's a pity, mother, I see that there are many masters in their house, and those girls are all good, why do we have to escort them into Beijing?" ”
Zhong Min squinted and looked at the main courtyard: "Mother wants you to see and understand." As he spoke, he gently pulled up the broken hair on his daughter's forehead, and thought silently in his heart: "Xue Niangzi looks at it without saying a word, but she knows it in her heart, it is very different from Jiu'er when she was a child, alas, don't say that Xin'er doesn't even dare to get close to her, I'm afraid this step is also wrong." ”
In the main room of the back wing of the Xue Mansion, Old Lady Xue walked around and rubbed her hands happily: "Yu'er, it's a loss to have you, otherwise I would have no shame to go to see the ancestors and ancestors." ”
Mrs. Xue immediately complimented on the side: "Dad, the tiger father has no dogs." This time I went back just to ask my mother to do the things between you and Aunt Qin, and I happened to go to the bad luck of the past few years. ”
Old lady Xue was already showing her old age at this time, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but blush, waved her hand and said, "It's just a concubine, where is it worth it." ”
Qin Niang is in her early forties, wearing a turmeric gown, looking white and clean, and shaking the gown in her hand to the sunlight in front of the window, her originally small eyebrows and eyes narrowed into a slit: "Slaves and maids listen to the master." ”
Mrs. Xue snorted very dissatisfied, and said with a sinking face: "That's not good, thanks to Aunt Qin taking care of you so wholeheartedly over the years, as the saying goes: Gou Fugui can't be forgotten." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Qin Niang and said, "You all have to listen to me." As the saying goes, if the name is not right, the word is not good, and our family is the most important rule. Besides, this is the title that Aunt Qin deserves. ”
Qin Niang couldn't help but smile when she heard this, glanced at Xue Guogong and smiled very reluctantly: "Okay, okay, let's all listen to Madame, just let the whole family get together and have fun, and go to bad luck." ”
General Xue saw that the matter had been decided, so he put the tea cup in his hand: "If my father has nothing to do, my son will go to the camp, and there are still many details to be explained by the lieutenants." ”
Old Lady Xue glanced at her son in disbelief, and said pitifully: "Well, go, go, it's important to get down to business." ”
Mrs. Xue followed the line to say goodbye, turned around and chased General Xue to the main courtyard, General Xue saw that she was running hard, and he was reluctant to stop his wife and asked, "What bad idea did you think of again?" ”
Mrs. Xue sighed, and she didn't feel like it, so she couldn't help but smile and said, "Do you want Mrs. Xu and Dad to enter the Guogong Mansion?" ”
General Xue paused, and Mrs. Xue persuaded: "If you don't know that your mother's medicine was changed back then, you can still deceive yourself, and now that you have found out, how can you still let her enjoy the honor of Mrs. Tai in the mansion?" ”
General Xue made a mistake, stopped and looked at his wife, and said, "What do you want." ”
Mrs. Xue pulled the corners of her mouth and laughed evilly: "If my father wants to live in another courtyard, she will follow no matter how unhappy she is." ”
General Xue snorted coldly: "If you rely on me, where do you need these tongues?" ”
Mrs. Xue was rarely angry, and took General Xue's hand and persuaded in a low voice: "Brother Xue, as the saying goes, she is always the fourth brother's mother-in-law, and besides, you are not close to your father, there must always be a person to relieve boredom by your father's side. ”
General Xue laughed at what she said, and said angrily: "Talking nonsense all day long. If it weren't for her, Qian'er wouldn't be confused, I heard that the inner house of the fourth family was a mess. ”
Mrs. Xue nodded and said, "I also don't want the eldest lady to see such a dirty thing, so I simply let them fight by themselves in the other courtyard." ”
The couple entered the inner courtyard as they spoke, and saw Xue Niangzi holding the jujube tree in the middle of the courtyard crying sadly.
General Xue took a big step, stood beside his daughter one step first, and said angrily: "Did those little guys who carried heavy objects scare you?" ”
Mrs. Xue was a mother in the end, stroking her daughter's back and whispering, "Are you reluctant?" ”
Xue Niangzi rubbed her eyes, twisted and refused to see anyone, and whispered with a sigh: "Every grass and tree here is planted by my mother, I still remember when I was three or four years old, I was swinging under the tree, and when I jumped down, I didn't stand firmly, my hands were broken, and I cried in pain, and my mother called my father to come and see." ”
Mrs. Xue didn't remember these old things a little, so she said vaguely: "You have always been steady when you were a child, and you rarely fell. ”
Xue Niangzi sobbed: "Well, my mother laughed so happily at the time, and called my father to come and see me crying." ”
The corners of Mrs. Xue's mouth couldn't help twitching, and she decisively changed the topic: "You kid, what's so good about this tree, last year your father specially called you under the tree and said to give you sand dates, and I saw that those sand dates were smashed on your head." ”
Xue Niangzi nodded and said, "Well, dad is bad, where I stand, he hits, that sand date hurts people." ”
General Xue glanced at Mrs. Xue fiercely: "Don't cry, Dad won't tease you in the future." ”
Xue Niangzi rubbed her eyes and lowered her head and followed her parents to the main house: "Mother, I want to take rhubarb with me." ”
Rhubarb is a big earth dog raised by Mrs. Xue, but Mrs. Xue has no good impression of Rhubarb: "The size is not small, but when there is a wind and grass, it runs faster than Mrs. Xue." But at this time, the daughter was happy, so she smiled and said, "If you like it, take it." (To be continued.) )
