Chapter 166: Door Plaque
After listening to Xu Xiangwan's explanation, Zhang's eyes seemed to be a little stunned, but he soon became clear again, and sighed with a smile: "How much virtue did my mother accumulate in her last life to give birth to you, a daughter with a delicate heart!" I don't know how many strange ideas are in my head. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Zhang reached out lovingly and nodded on Xu Xiangwan's forehead.
Xu Xiangwan guessed that Zhang's had remembered Xu Zhibang before, but he didn't ask, but instead snuggled into Zhang's arms and hugged Zhang's coquettishness.
Looking at such a delicate and lovely daughter, Zhang's only felt that his heart was happy.
Seeing this, Xiao Jiu was not willing to be lonely, opened a pair of small arms, and also threw himself into Zhang's arms.
Although Xu Qiuyi was only nine years old, she already had the momentum of the eldest sister, and she felt that she had grown up, so she refused to be coquettish to her mother like her younger brothers and sisters, so she just stood in front of Zhang's with a smile and said to her younger brothers and sisters: "Be careful, don't pounce on your mother." ”
Zhang looked at the three children in front of him, and his originally somewhat empty heart was instantly filled.
In addition to the beauty suit sent by Xu Xiangwan, Xu Qiuyi and Xiao Jiu also prepared their own congratulatory gifts, Xu Qiuyi gave a set of lilac cross-collared pleated silk skirts made by herself, with a dark purple brocade belt, Zhang's skin is fair, wearing such a purple dress, it should be more beautiful.
Xiao Jiu was not to be outdone, he took out a finely carved wooden box from his bosom and opened it, and took out a silver glittering bearded butterfly hairpin, with several small red gems inlaid on the butterfly wings, and a bunch of red tassels hanging on the tail of the hairpin, although it was not gorgeous, but it was also very delicate and beautiful.
Seeing that his children were so sensible and filial, the tears in Zhang's eyes could no longer hold back, and they dripped down his cheeks.
"Mother, what's wrong with you, you are a birthday star today, don't cry!" Xiao Jiu hurriedly stretched out his hand to wipe Zhang's tears, fortunately, Zhang's did not have the habit of wiping grease and powder, otherwise this crying would have become a big face.
Zhang snorted and said with a smile: "Mother is not crying, Mother is happy in her heart." ”
With such children, what is the point of suffering that they once endured?
Just when the Zhang family was emotional, there was a knock on the door of the house.
Now the house is big, Zhang and the others live in the second entrance, in order not to hear the knocking sound, the second entrance door is open except at night, so the door of the house has just been knocked, and everyone has heard it.
"Isn't our brother back?" Xu Xiangwan looked up in surprise and asked.
The news that their family moved to the Gu Mansion should be known to no one other than the Shen family and Goro.
Xiao Jiu hurriedly left Zhang's arms, walked quickly towards the front yard with his little short legs, and said as he ran: "I'll open the door for our brother." ”
"This kid!" Zhang shook his head with a smile, but he also hurriedly wiped the tears with the handkerchief handed by Xu Qiuyi, so as not to worry about her when Gorou came in and saw her.
Xu Xiangwan also jumped out of Zhang's arms excitedly and ran to the front yard with Xiao Jiu.
Zhang and Xu Qiuyi did not wait in the living room, but got up and walked quickly to the front yard.
Xiao Jiu took the lead in opening the courtyard door, and sure enough, he saw Gorou in a stone blue robe standing at the door, followed by Jing'an, who was dressed in a maroon short.
"Brother, sure enough, you're back!" Xiao Jiu saw that it was indeed Gorou standing outside the door, and immediately jumped out of the threshold and grabbed Gorou's palm in surprise.
Xu Xiangwan also followed, ran out of the gate, and grabbed Gorou's other hand.
The door had just opened, and Zhang and Xu Qiuyi also rushed out, and they were all overjoyed to see that the person standing outside the door was really the **** looking forward to Goro.
"Brother, since that day I learned that you were going to take a break at the end of the month, we have been looking forward to you day and night!" Xu Xiangwan shook Gorou's hand with a grin and said coquettishly to Goro.
When the family is reunited, the joy is indescribable, everyone you and I say a word, as if there are endless words.
It turned out that Wulang was also worried about Zhang's birthday, so he specially invited the saved five days off for a holiday, and set off from the academy before dawn, rushed to the city gate at noon, and rented a mule cart to send them back to Gu's house.
It's the first time Gorou has returned to his new home, and when he sees the spacious and bright mansion, Gorou can't tell what it's like, both joy and guilt, but more of a vision for his future life. The brothers and sisters are hardworking and capable people, and the future will definitely be more and more prosperous.
The family first took Gorou to take a closer look at the inside and outside of Gu's house, and then took him to see the room prepared for him and the study in the inner courtyard, and then sat down in the hall of the inner courtyard.
"Brother, there is still a plaque of 'Gu Zhai' hanging in this house, we are still waiting for you to come back and inscribe it to us, so that we can take it and make a new door plaque!" Xu Xiangwan winked at Gorou and said with a grin.
Although Gorou has not practiced calligraphy for a long time, he is better than hard work, although the words written are not as good as everyone's style, but he already has his own style, looking like his own character, upright but not losing the atmosphere.
Hearing Xu Xiangwan say this, Gorou didn't shirk it, and said: "Since this house is already ours, it is naturally not good to hang other people's door plaques." But this door plaque is the face of our family, and now my words can only be made to see, if I meet the seventh master one day, I will ask him for a pair. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jing'an had already taken pen and ink paper from the study and spread it on the desk, and polished the ink for Gorou.
Seeing that Jing'an was clever, everyone loved this young man a little more, and his words became much more cordial, and he gradually regarded him as his own family.
Gorou splashed ink, and after a while, two dignified and atmospheric words "Xu Zhai" appeared on the white rice paper.
"Ladies and gentlemen, take the little one to the carpenter and engrave the plaque." Jing'an continued.
Although everyone has said it many times, let Jing'an not be so polite, just call them by name, but Jing'an insisted that there is a difference between master and servant, and the rules cannot be messed up, and they are still called "master and master", which makes Xu Xiangwan and others who are used to staying in the countryside and have never been served by others very unaccustomed.
"It's not early now, so let's have lunch and go again." Zhang looked at the sky and said with a smile, "Anyway, it's been hanging for so many days, and I'm not in a hurry at this time." ”
When Gorou came back, it was already the beginning of the day, and everyone had been walking around the courtyard for so long, and it was already the beginning of noon.
Since Gorou came back, everyone was talking happily, and they forgot the time, Xu Qiuyi remembered that the meal hadn't had time to prepare, and got up to go to the kitchen with an exclamation.
"Sister, I'll go with you." Xu Xiangwan also got up.
"You brothers and sisters are all sitting, and I'll cook today." Zhang's mood is very good today, so he wants to make some good dishes for the children to taste. (To be continued.) )
