Xiao Xia was talking, and Xiao Yu followed the starlings and them back from school.

Ting'er hurriedly went over to greet Xiaoyu and Starling. secretly looked at Xiaoyu again, Xu is sixth brother's matter made Xiaoyu quite annoyed, he was much thinner than during the New Year, and he grew taller. The eyebrows are becoming more and more delicate, but one face is sunburned into wheat color, and there is a little less girlish delicateness.

Xiaoyu Xiao's mother, who has a goose egg face, Xu is taking advantage of the good facial features, and at first glance she looks quite beautiful with everyone's demeanor. There is also a pair of eyes as bright as stars, and when looking at people, the gaze is not sharp, but it always makes the person who is seen feel a little nowhere to hide. But if the person who is being seen has the courage to look back carefully, he feels that her eyes are pure and her heart has no distractions.

What makes Ting'er envious the most is Xiaoyu's smile. If an ordinary person is seven or eight points happy, he must be grinning. As long as Xiaoyu has a little joy on her face, the corners of her two mouths will turn up slightly, as if she has six or seven points of joy. So she never shows her teeth when she laughs, and naturally she doesn't need to hide it with her hands, she looks more pleasing and generous than ordinary people.

Every time Ting'er saw this little aunt, she couldn't help but take a closer look, hoping to find a gap to pick off her "dignified" fox skin.

It's just that every time she wastes her work. Thinking that Xiao Xia Pozi's behavior is very elegant and atmospheric, Xiaoyu will be affected even if she is exposed to it. What's more, Mrs. Xiao Xia is quite strict with this only daughter. Otherwise, Xia Xiucai and Old Xia Pozi would not have said--- "She is fine now." "I can't really find anything wrong with it.

Ting'er received a few gifts from her younger brothers, and when she looked back, Xiaoyu had already followed her wife.

In the next few days, Ting'er didn't see this little aunt much.

It turned out that Xiaoyu and the starling made two pairs of bows and arrows with the fourth brother, but they were not the kind of wooden ones they played with when they were children. Able to shoot rabbits and other small animals, the starling took Xiaoyu and a few foals to play happily in the forest on the edge of the village.

Ting'er watched Ruju running forward and backward with Xiaoyu, but she turned a blind eye to her own sister, and looked down on Xiaoyu more and more in her heart.

A few days later, the sixth brother's letter to Ping'an arrived, and Xia Xiucai asked Xiaoyu to take it and read it to the starling brother and grandchildren, and asked Xiaoyu to write a reply. So, Starling, Xiaoyu, and Ruju all gathered at the small square table in the courtyard to give Xiaoyu ideas. For a while, Xiaoyu was surrounded by water, and he talked lively.

Ting'er was quite apprehensive when she saw it on the side. He covered his mouth and smiled and said to Mrs. Xia: "Mrs., your granddaughter is so powerful."

Turning his head, he said to Mrs. Xiaoxia: "Grandmother, let my little aunt teach us a few, although it is dull, it is always better than not learning." Then he said, "Grandmother, your granddaughter is much worse than your mother-in-law's." ”

Mrs. Xia was very helpful when she heard this, so she called Xiaoyu over and asked her to come back early in the future to teach Ting'er a few words: "I can recognize a few words." ”

Xiaoyu also responded, but within a few days, she felt that the nieces were too stupid, especially Yan'er, and asked her to write two words, but she couldn't write it well. Ting'er writes and does arithmetic well, but her endorsement is too bad. Qin'er was obedient, what did she ask her to do, she had to finish it without sleeping, and she was often so angry that her sister-in-law counted her: "Is it a holy decree for the little aunt to speak?"

Xiaoyu has less time to play, and he can't see any benefits, so his interest is not very high. ran to find Xia Xiucai, and first brought Xia Xiucai a high hat: "Daddy, you are really amazing." The so-called not in his position and not in his politics, I taught myself a few Ting'er, and then I found that reading and educating people and teaching students according to their aptitude is the most difficult thing in the world. Daddy worked hard for the family in his early years!"

Say it and hit the ground.

He got up and said, "Our brothers and sisters and several nephews are mostly mediocre in their qualifications, and my father never tires of teaching people. It's really "I paused for a moment before I received: "Licking the calf is deep." ”

And so on and so forth.

Xia Xiucai saw that she was going to continue filming, so she hurriedly smiled and said, "What's the matter again!"

Xiaoyu smiled at this time, shook her head and said: "I think there are a few starlings and Ruju, they are clever and impatient, and I am afraid that they will not be able to reach it enough in the future." Exercise should also be done early. After that, he glanced at his father and saw that he was really thoughtful. He also said: "The so-called insight into the world is knowledge, why not let them also know that the world is difficult." ”

"Oh, what rules do you have?" Xia Xiucai looked at Xiaoyu curiously.

"It's better to let them take turns to teach Ting'er a few readings and literacy. In this way, I will also have time to read more books of sages, and they will have more insight into the world. Xiaoyu poured tea into Daddy's empty teacup very doggedly.

Xia Xiucai tilted his head slightly, his stubborn beard turned upward. Half-paid, a smile appeared on Qingjun's face: "It's a good idea." I need to add a lot of color. ”

Xiaoyu hurriedly leaned over: "If anyone teaches well, he can go to the school to teach those newly enlightened children, what do you think? If he doesn't teach well, let him teach the girl's family all the time." ”

Xia Xiucai stroked his beard and nodded. thought in my heart: "They all say that their daughter is intimate, but it's not." Recently, when I got older, my daughter came up with such an idea, so that I could relax and relax. Not. Thinking like this, his slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, and the rhythm was very cheerful.

Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief and was finally able to go out and play.

When the starlings heard this idea, they really wanted to cry without tears. Fortunately, there are many people, and it only takes one turn in four or five days, but it is not like Xiaoyu who talks to a few girls every day. But a few little ones rejoiced.

When Ting'er saw Ruchen Zheng'er sitting there lecturing, she was so angry that she fainted. However, Xiaoyu told Xia Xiucai in advance, it is just enough for others to go to class, Ruchen must be extra careful when he is in class, he must not hurt his young heart, miss class and ask for leave or something, it must not happen when Ruchen is in class.

As a result, Ruchen acted more and more calmly. Ting'er became more and more aggrieved in her heart.

When Mrs. Xiao Xia is free, she also asks about the relatives like the sea and the mountains. But it was Ruhai who quietly discussed with Sister-in-law Xia, so it was better to wait for someone to say that it was better. When Mrs. Xiao Xia heard this, she didn't say anything anymore. But Rao is like this, the Xia family has still added a lot of people in recent years, and the current house is gradually not enough.

So, the fourth brother set out to expand again.

Xiao Xia's mother-in-law said to the fourth brother: "Now the family also has some assets, although there are many men, and the fifth brother is a bookmaker. However, most of the houses are old and weak, women and children, and the newly built houses should not only be strong, but also be able to protect us. ”

So, the fourth brother raised the courtyard wall high.

The fourth brother has learned some tricks in the past few years, so he designed two dark rooms at home. After listening to Xiao Xia's mother-in-law's Jianyi and the eldest brother, the two quietly added two cellars, but the entrance was under the dark room. In this way, every year we can save more grain at home, sell it the next year, and store new ones.

It's so busy and busy, and it's time for the autumn harvest.

One day, Xiaoyu was playing with the starlings catching rabbits in the grove when she suddenly heard a whistle in the distance.

Running out to take a look, I saw the pony pouting and running towards two riders in the distance.

It's the second brother! Xiaoyu beckoned the seventh brother and chased after him.

When he got closer, Xiaoyu realized that it was not the bearded second brother. Tilting his head to look at it, it was a young man he didn't know riding a big white horse, and he was bending down from the horse to stroke his little pony. Looking at the age of about fourteen or fifteen, he had a white and clean face, wore a green shirt, and had a sword hanging from his waist. Seeing Xiaoyu approaching, he also raised his head and looked at Xiaoyu with a smile.

The middle-aged guard-looking man beside him rode a big red horse, lean and fierce-looking, with a slanted scar on his face, from his left eye to his nose to the right side of his face. He was wearing a gray cloth dress, which was a little white after washing, but he was dressed as a Jianghu person, and a sword was hanging from his waist.

Xiaoyu snorted and looked back at the starling. Then he ran over and grabbed the pony's ear, and while pulling it into his arms, he reprimanded: "How many times have I told you, but you just don't listen." The day before yesterday, you saw a rabbit and you ran to chase it, and yesterday you saw a mouse and you moved forward. Why don't you have a long memory? ”

The pony snorted and struggled to turn his head to look at the boy. Xiaoyu became more and more angry at the young man's rudeness, seeing that the little pony was close to him, it must be a friend of the second brother. When you see her as the current owner of the pony, you should get off the horse and introduce yourself. But looking at himself so condescendingly and domineeringly, he must not have taken the second brother in his eyes.

Thinking like this, I have the heart to teach him a lesson.

So with a little more strength in his hand, he twisted the horse's head and scolded: "I have never seen such a stupid horse as you again,"

Before the words fell, the young man couldn't help but laugh and said, "This little girl, you don't have to play the piano to the cow." It doesn't understand. ”

Xiaoyu glanced up at him, and her contemptuous gaze deliberately stopped on his face for a moment, and then lowered her head and continued to train her little pony: "You just stupid and stupid, you will pounce when you see a long face." Do you think that if you have a long face, it must be your brother?" said as he curled his finger and knocked heavily on the pony's head.

The young man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that he was talking about himself, and he was a little displeased in his heart: "Little girl, why are you scolding?"

Xiaoyu looked at him inexplicably with a little face: "Which one is scolding?"

Turning his head and pointing to his pony, he continued, "I've been scolding my pony here!?" and took an exaggerated breath, covering his mouth and pretending to be surprised: "You're so angry, do you think I've been scolding you?"

When the starling heard this, he hurriedly gestured to the nephews in the back, so the brothers laughed out loud.

The young man was also quite concerned about his appearance, and his face was flushed with anger. The reins in his hand trembled, and the mount under his crotch seemed to feel the irritability of his master, and his four hooves stepped restlessly over and over. The middle-aged man beside him persuaded the young man in a calm voice: "Young master, don't be impulsive. ”

Xiaoyu lowered her head and smiled secretly, hum! Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the man who seemed to be talking to himself, and thought, "It wouldn't be fun if he said that he was a friend of the second brother, maybe I would have to call him brother." ”

At this moment, the pony shaved its hooves and snorted again. Xiaoyu hit the horse on the head with a shudder: "Say that you have a long face, you are still not convinced." Dogs don't think they are poor, and horses don't have long faces. ”

The seventh brother laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.

Xiaoyu shook the pony's head without fear of death, and added: "Why are you not as good as a dog." ”

The young man was furious, and with a shake of the reins, he rushed towards Xiaoyu.
