36. Brothers of the Flower Family
Chapter 36 The Hua Brothers
Hua Ling has been in a hurry these days, just because the Hua brothers are going back to the academy in late June, she is busy reuniting with her brother, and they have fun together every day.
Shen Laibao felt like there was no little spirit bird by her side, and after thinking about it carefully, Hua Ling was really a little chatter, and she was usually around for nothing, so she couldn't run to play with her brothers, Shen Laibao was quite unaccustomed.
Fortunately, Ah Wuchang, who went to supervise the work with the owner of Bai Zhuang, came back to report to him, and the progress was generally smooth. Looking at the maturing projects, he also has a great sense of accomplishment.
He was allowed to go out two days later, and because of the injury in the back of his head, Mrs. Shen couldn't see it, and she also felt that her grandson was back to normal. However, what she is most worried about these days is not her grandson, but her son and daughter-in-law.
The old lady had a hard life, and her eldest son died of illness, so she lived with her younger son. Fortunately, the son is filial and the daughter-in-law is obedient, and now the grandson is clever, and the biggest thorn in his heart has been removed. Who would have thought that the husband and wife, who have always respected each other, would have an awkward quarrel, which really made her strange. I wanted to ask a few times, but I held back again.
She talked to her grandson a few times, trying to find out from his mouth why his father was like this.
Of course, Shen Laibao understood his grandmother's earnest eyes, but he couldn't say it, because he knew it roughly, but he didn't know what it was.
Old Mrs. Shen was panicked in her heart, and finally couldn't help but call her son on this day, and said earnestly, "Jinshan, your husband and wife have always been careless, but these days you have treated Su Su differently." ”
Master Shen, who had been neglected for three or four days, said, "Mother, I have treated me differently than before, not my son." ”
Old Mrs. Shen frowned, "What nonsense, Su Su is gentle and virtuous, you can't see it when you repeatedly take concubines, she doesn't talk about you, she takes care of your face outside, and takes care of the affairs of the inner house at home." It's you, not being satisfied, it must be your fault. ”
Master Shen was dumbfounded, even if Noble was ranked first in her heart, the second position should always be his, but with his wife in front of him, then he could only rank third!
"Mother, I mean really, I really didn't treat her lightly."
"Hmph."
Old Mrs. Shen's face was full of disbelief, and she was even more discouraged when she saw it.
It turned out that he was so unpopular at home, and it turned out that everyone in the house was convinced of his wife, which was completely unnoticeable in normal times.
After being reprimanded, Master Shen came out of his mother's room, and he had an epiphany, and it was time to talk to his wife. He asked his wife if he was in the room, and when he knew that he was, he went back to the room directly.
Mrs. Shen didn't have to look at her husband's face recently, and she felt relieved at first, and she was finally at ease. But slowly, she felt uncomfortable, pulled out a thorn, and pierced another one.
This discomfort probably came from restraining herself for more than ten years, suddenly letting go of the rope, only to find that she had no way to take a step forward, and was still spinning in place.
When she tossed and turned at night, she suddenly understood one thing - what she wanted to be comfortable was not not not to look at her husband's face, nor to be unbound by her husband and the Shen family, but to respect!
But now it seems that she still does not have the respect of her husband.
She sat alone in the room, her heart was heavy, and she couldn't help but sigh.
This sigh was so heavy that even Master Shen, who was about to enter the door, felt that there was a stone pressing on his heart when he heard it. Looking at his wife again, she is still dressed in such an old-fashioned manner, or she is still wearing heavy hair accessories in her bun, and she is not in good spirits, and this sigh is even more haggard.
Mrs. Shen noticed that someone had come in, but she still didn't knock on the door, it must be her husband. She didn't raise her eyes, pretended not to know that he had come in, raised her hand and took the water to drink, who wanted to be absent-minded, the water entered her throat and caught her off guard, choking her immediately coughing. She bent over and coughed sharply, thinking that she would make a fool of herself in front of him, and she was a little unwilling.
Just thinking about it, there was a hand on her back to pat her to relieve her discomfort.
Mrs. Shen's mind suddenly wandered, and the cough eased after a while, and the hand on her back was still patting, so that she was about to cough again. She flirted with her backhand and pushed her husband's hand away.
The incomprehensible Master Shen thought that his wife hated him, and Master Shen, who wanted to talk to her well, suddenly became angry, and after many days of snubbing and today's pushing, he was so angry that he shook his hand and left.
Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment before she remembered that the gesture just now was wrong. She felt uncomfortable, but she didn't get up to chase after her, because even if she did, he wouldn't believe it.
The sound of her husband's footsteps faded away, and Mrs. Shen sighed again.
&&&&&
In the scorching heat of June, except for the sound of drums on the trees, everything in the world seems to be lifeless. Standing under the eaves and looking from a distance, it seems that everything has been steamed and distorted.
Liao's eyes were terrible, "Lingling goes out like this every day, and she looks like a little black girl." ”
Mr. Hua was half-lying on the bench, blowing a warm summer breeze, and the wind from the fan in his hand was also warm, he said leisurely, "When her brother returns to the academy and you lock her up at home all day, she will naturally recover." ”
"They're going back, and Lingling won't be able to play with Noble yet."
Master Hua raised his hand to fan her who was sitting next to her and asked, "I heard that Lingling transferred the walnuts I gave her to Noble?" ”
Liao said, "Yes, on the second day when Shen Laibao fell into a coma, Ling Ling went to see him and gave him walnuts. No, he also hangs on his body every day. ”
Master Hua frowned slightly, "Lingling mentioned it to me before, and also told me that Noble promised her to hang it on her body, but I didn't see it when Noble came over yesterday." ”
Liao Shi said lightly, "Children are actually the same as adults, they all like the new and hate the old, and it is not surprising that they don't like to put it away after playing for a few months." ”
"It's not a matter of liking it or not." Mr. Hua sat up straight, "This is a matter of morality." ”
Liao Shi disagreed, and sneered, "Don't measure people by your gentlemanly style, Lai Bao is only ten years old." ”
Master Hua shook his head, and lay down again in a melodious voice, "It is said that three years old sees old, and ten years old is not young, if you can't keep your promise, it may not be good." ”
Liao thought about it for a while, although he didn't agree, he didn't refute him. Leaning over and turning the conversation, he asked in a low voice, "What do you want to eat at noon, I'll ask the cook to buy it." ”
Master Hua smiled, "It must be Lingling who wants to eat the food you cooked, and you want to cook, so come and ask me by the way." ”
He bit the word "by the way" a little hard, and Liao Shi chuckled, "Yes, then do you want to 'by the way'?" ”
Master Hua sighed, "A husband is not as good as a woman...... You do it, you do, I'll eat it 'by the way'. ”
Liao Shi suddenly laughed, "Don't eat half of it while eating." ”
Mr. Hua smiled suddenly, "Then I don't know." ”
The two talked and laughed, and even the scorching heat seemed to be blocked out of the pavilion, and the scorching sun was not terrible.
But Hua Ling felt that the scorching sun was terrible.
Hua Ling, who was wearing a hat, felt that she was going to dry into a small fish, she held the fishing rod in her hand, her eyelids kept falling, she yawned, turned her head and asked, "Second brother, let's go home, fishing is not fun at all." ”
Hua Lang sighed, "yes, it's not fun at all. He also tilted his head to the right, "Big brother, let's go home." ”
Hua continued to be silent, such as the old monk into the steady, holding the fishing rod from the previous fish to the hook, after the recast of the fishing rod has not changed, "You two are too active, fishing can calm people's hearts." ”
“…… But I clearly felt more impetuous. ”
“…… Big brother, so am I. ”
Hua Xu looked at the two younger siblings who were chattering, especially the younger sister, his face was red, and he put away the fishing rod, "Go home." ”
The flower bell was overjoyed and immediately closed the rod. Hua Lang was afraid that his brother would return, so he hurriedly closed the pole.
Hua Xu looked at the two of them in a hurry, and said with a smile, "You two just can't calm down." ”
Hua Lang retorted, "It's quiet when I study with Lingling. ”
Hua Ling also responded, "Yes! ”
"Big brother, you're the one who can't make a fuss."
Hua Xu said leisurely, "Tomorrow I plan to go to the horse farm to make trouble." ”
Hua Lang paused, "I'm going too." Seeing that my sister didn't speak, I felt curious, "Lingling, why didn't you go noisy?" Is it because we don't take you there, so you don't make noise? ”
Hua continued, "I'll take you for a walk this time." ”
Hua Ling, who already had a foal, was proud, "I have a foal, and I named it Xiaoyun." It's a beautiful Ili horse, but it's so good-looking, I go to feed it every evening. ”
"No wonder you don't see anyone in the evening." Hua Lang reacted at this time, and almost didn't jump up, "How could my father and mother agree to you to raise horses?" My mother didn't even let you go to the horse farm before. He smiled again, "I remember that the Ili horse is not cheap, Lingling, your little treasury should be emptied, right?" ”
Hua Ling stuck out her tongue at her brother, "No, it was given to me by Brother Laibao." ”
The two brothers glanced at each other, Shen Laibao's name was heard from his sister's mouth, which was very different from the appearance of the silly boy before, which made people more and more curious. What has become of Shen Laibao, who always smirks at the door of his house.
Hua Xu thought about it, bent over and said, "Lingling, let's go to the racecourse tomorrow and make an appointment with Shen Laibao." ”
Hua Ling thought that she hadn't seen Shen Laibao for many days, and she had mentioned before that the eldest brother and the second brother were good at archery and could teach him, so she said happily, "Then I'll ask Brother Laibao." ”
