72. Seventy-two

In the following days, nothing came out of the Shi family, probably because General Shi Ben had not finished the inspection of the Gyeonggi Army and the Gyeongce Army and returned to his home. And the Pu family, which had been quiet for a while, fell into new chaos.

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Chi's brother Chi Song took his wife Geng to Yan's house. I sent two mentions of tea fruits, saying that it was a New Year's greeting, but in fact, I came to Xingshi to ask for sin. It is not only for Ji Song's performance appraisal at the end of the year, but also for Ji Zhugui's unhealed injury.

Chi's face was extremely difficult to see, these two things were not so much because of her, but because of Ruji. But how can you move like a concubine now? On the second day of the junior high school, Ruxi came back from Huan Ningbo's Mansion and got a lot of gifts to add makeup, and the Chi family didn't know about General Shi Ben and Su Sanniang, but thought that the Yan family really valued Ruxi, and became more and more jealous in his heart.

But the performance appraisal at the end of the year and Ji Zhugui's injury, both things can be said to be the lifeblood of the Jiyang Chi family, and Ji Song hurriedly rushed into Beijing after Chinese New Year's Eve, how could it be that Chi could be perfunctory with a few words?

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, from early in the morning, the middle hall of the Pu family was noisy and arguing. Chi's was smart again, and reported from the door that his uncle had arrived, so he asked Ruyan Rushu to go back to their rooms first, and asked people not to invite the eldest girl to see the gift.

In fact, Chi Song originally wanted to salute first and then soldier, but after arriving in Beijing the day before, he went to Huaishu Hutong to see Chi Zhugui, and the father and son hugged each other and cried. But Chi Song still has a trace of sanity in the end, the sixth junior high was busy looking for an inn to resettle Chi Zhugui, and endured it until the seventh day of the first year to come to the door, and his wife Geng cried for half the night The redness and swelling have not disappeared, and she doesn't drink tea, so she came up and asked where Ruxi is now.

Chi's head is as big as a fight, and he can't help it, so the dispute between brothers, sisters and sisters-in-law lasted from morning to noon. Pu Luo's rest is not over yet, and he can't avoid it, noisy and noisy, Chi Song is still looking forward to relying on his brother-in-law Hanlin to dredge up the activity again, and has some scruples, but the Geng family only has one son, Chi Zhugui, and I heard that the injury on his leg may have affected somewhere, it is really devoured alive, and the future of any official position is thrown out of the clouds. If it weren't for Qiu's mother, Shuangcia Shuangying and others who hurriedly helped stop them, Geng's family would have rushed directly into the inner house to do something.

But even if it was easy to talk about it, Chi Shi still couldn't help but let Geng's sideburns be scattered, his clothes were wrinkled, the back of his hands was red, and even his jaw was scratched with two blood marks.

Ru Ji is in the middle of the moon dew is calculating a trip to Baifu Lane to visit Su San Niangzi in the past two days, and she is also sorting out her makeup and New Year's gifts recently, and by the way, she will also pick out the gifts that she will bring to Su San Niangzi. Hearing the fairy grass talk about this chaos in the middle hall, Ru Xi only smiled and asked Xia Yin to follow the fairy grass over to see the situation generously.

Chi Song and Geng's can't tell the difference between the maids in the Pu family's house, although Chi Cuiliu and Shuang'e know each other, they also know these turmoil in the past, even if they see it, they may not dare to say anything to Geng's family. In fact, it means that Xia Yin is in the past, Ru Ji still has some bad intentions in it, if Geng really doesn't know whether to pull the maid of Yueluju or rush all the way, she doesn't mind letting Xia Yin move her muscles and bones.

Seeing noon, the commotion finally ended temporarily. Xia Yin and Xiancao returned to Yuelu Ju to report the progress, and in the end, the compensation that Pu Yu and the Chi family promised was that Pu Yu would dredge Chi Song after the year, and see if he could still be asked to continue to mix safely in Jiyang Xuezheng. If not, then it depends on whether there are any minor literary functions in the capital that are missing. During this time, Chi Song and Geng also had to live in the Pu family and squeeze in with Cuiliu Shuang'e. After all, the Jingzhong Inn and renting a house are not cheap, if you ask the Chi family to pay, it is better to make do at home. As for Chi Zhugui's injury, it was the Pu family who paid for the treatment before, and it is natural that he will continue to treat it in the future. Then if there is something bad, the Geng family has already let go of the cruel words, then the Chi family will be responsible for the end. To put it bluntly, that is, to ask the Chi family to marry his daughter.

As for Ruji's side, although the Geng family still hated itchy, he still understood the ruthlessness of the Yan family's previous shot, and he didn't have the courage to hit the stone with an egg, and symbolically made a fuss at the Chi family, and didn't dare to really come over to try Xia Yin's skills at the cost of soft tissue contusion all over the body.

Ru Xi just finished changing her clothes when she heard Xian Cao finish speaking, and was about to go to Baifu Lane, she brushed her sideburns in the mirror again, and put on the hair comb that Chen Hao had given her before, and then smiled: "The uncle and uncle of the Chi family have moved in, and our wife has a headache." You go and talk to the Pu family, take a double copy of the red envelope, if my uncle and wife step into Yueluju when I am not at home, or bully any of you, I will be merciful. After the order was finished, he took Cai Wan and Xia Yin out together.

There are many residents in Baifu Lane, although they are mostly from small households with medium or even slightly poor families, but they are still full of festive decoration atmosphere under the year, and the word "red flower" is everywhere, and most of the pedestrians and children are also wearing new clothes and hats, and they are happy. And the simple courtyard of the Chen family is no exception, the thin wooden door is pasted with the word big red blessing, and there is also a pair of spring couplets with proper handwriting pasted next to the door.

Chen Hao knew that Ru Xi came over on the seventh day of the first month, and had already changed the rotation of Jingzhao Yamen, and at this moment he came out and saw Ru Xi wearing the double butterfly hair comb on her head in a red brocade dress, with a smile on her beautiful little face, and a little naughty in her eyes.

Ru Ji knew that the courtyard of the Chen family was small and the sound insulation was even worse, so after thinking about it, she didn't want to talk nonsense, so she obediently led by Chen Hao and went to see Su San Niang in the hall.

As soon as she entered the door, Ruji's breath couldn't help but hold her breath for a moment.

Su San Niangzi wore a lotus-colored slender robe, with a simple two-color Ruyi pattern outlined with silk and apricot embroidery threads, and the bun on her head was still the usual cloud bun, but in addition to the usual plain silver hairpin, there was an extra topaz hairpin, and a pearl was added to the sideburns.

This kind of dress can still be regarded as light, but it is only a little more colorful than the usual clothes, and Su Sanniang's whole person seems to have walked into the world from the previous ink beauty picture, with a little more vivid and fragrant fresh complexion, and the bright and indescribable eyebrows and eyes seem to have a soft and bright moisturizing light. Ruji, who had not been seen for a long time, was instantly amazed, thinking back to the bejeweled and splendid nobles and daughters who had seen in Huanningbo Mansion, there was really no one who could compare to Su San Niangzi in terms of appearance. So what if Su San Niangzi also changed to such a gorgeous dress?

Chen Hao saw that Ruxi seemed to be moving a little slower, and thought she was shy, so he hurriedly coughed lightly and said to ease his cheeks: "Ahem, mother, Ruxi has come to see you." ”

Ru Xi was busy and deeply blessed, and Su San Niangzi personally got up and helped her up: "Good boy, sit down and talk." ”

This is the first time that Ru Xi and Su San Niangzi have met after Ru Xi and Chen Hao have settled on their family affairs. On the way to Baifu Lane, Ru Xi didn't think it was a big deal, after all, she had met Su San Niangzi several times before, but when it really came to face to face with different identities at this moment, Ru Xi was still a little nervous. Especially looking at Su Sanniang's very radiant appearance, and she can be regarded as half an assistant matchmaker, she feels even more complicated and embarrassing in her heart. It's just a half-sentence to laugh with Chen Hao behind his back, and now that he is face to face with Su Sanniang, he doesn't know what to say.

Su Sanniang was very calm, looking at Ru Xi's eyes were just full of gentle kindness, and no longer like the previous indifferent appearance: "Are you okay at home recently?" I heard that Mrs. Chi's brother's family also went to visit the house. ”

Ruji nodded: "It's all good, thank you for your concern." The uncle and wife of the Chi family are here, and they also said that they want to move in. But they only had some arguments with Mrs. Pu, and they didn't have anything to do with me. ”

Su Sanniang bowed her head: "That's good." If there is anything, just send someone to find Mao'er. If they say anything about what happened before, you don't want to conflict with them yourself, and Mi'er and I will naturally give you a head. ”

Ru Xi remembered the first time she met Su San Niangzi before, it was for the overlord attempt of Chi Zhu Gui, which was the most important turning point in Ru Xi's journey, and such a thing would cause questions about women's names in ancient times, even in modern society, sometimes there are brain-dead groups who look down on victims. But Su Sanniang and Chen Hao's mother and son were able to not mind at all, and they still protected her everywhere, and Ru Ji was more and more moved in her heart: "Thank you, madam." ”

Su Sanniang patted the back of Ruxi's hand, asked a few more words about her ordinary daily life, and sent Chen Hao to the kitchen to get water. This is obviously to talk to Ru Xi alone, Chen Hao glanced at Ru Xi and went away, Cai Wan and Xia Yin also consciously took a few more steps back under the corridor.

"Ru Xi," Su San Niangzi took out a rather old wooden box, opened it and pushed it in front of Ru Xi, and a pair of white jade bracelets were placed on the batik blue cloth with a somewhat blurred pattern, "This is a token given to me by Mao'er's father when I got married." It's not too valuable, the Chen family has been a military household for generations, the population is not too much, and the family background is ordinary, it is rare that you don't dislike it, this pair of bracelets will be given to you today, and I hope you will treat each other well in the future. After a pause, he looked at Ruxi's eyes more and more earnestly, "In the future, I will hand over Mao'er to you." ”
