When Wang Di'er saw his own man coming, his face turned pale, so he hurriedly said: "I'll take a look at the girl and her niece, who knows that this girl is yin and yang, and she doesn't have a good word in her mouth." "I'm not the first to send it, and after saying two words to her, she is about to start. I'm leaving, and the Changchun girl is shouting for you. Actually, what does it have to do with me?"

Xia Gongyan knew his mother-in-law's temper, ignored this, and said to Xia Chunchao: "Sister, what's wrong" Xia Chunchao sat on the bed and was silent. Seeing this, Xia Gongyan had no choice but to ask others again.

Changchun said: "Grandma, people must also speak truthfully." The girl is confined in this house, you don't know how to come, and it doesn't matter if the girl is cold or not, and the snow on the hat doesn't know how to bounce off outside. When I entered the door, I didn't say anything, I didn't move strongly, my hands were as cold as ice, and I was going to hug Miss. The girl won't let you, and if you talk about those out-of-tune gossips, you will definitely make the girl uncomfortable. Zhu'er didn't let you speak, so you raised your hand and beat someone. Our girls are cheap, and it is natural to be beaten and scolded by the master. But the grandmother should also be considerate and considerate of the girl, this confinement watching the house make a lot of noise, what does it feel like in my heart, so I invited the uncle to come over, and quickly invited the grandmother to go. ”

Xia Gongyan listened to this call, his eyes widened, and he scolded him: "It's not good for you to stay in the house, run to your sister to beat someone in front of your sister, you are not afraid of scaring the baby who is not out of confinement, where can you stand up to such a noise, if you are scared of something." When Daddy comes back in the evening, I won't peel you."

The king was very afraid of her man, and stood in the corner of the wall, bowing his head, not daring to say a word, but he did not dare to leave. Xia Gongyan reprimanded: "Don't go back yet, what are you doing here?"

Xia Gongyan said to his sister: "Sister, don't take it to heart. Your sister-in-law's temper, you still don't know that she has no intentions, I won't call her to come over to quarrel with you when I go back, you can rest in peace. Xia Chunchao suddenly raised his head, his eyes were red, his lips trembled and asked: "Brother, what my sister-in-law said is true, he is serious" Before he finished speaking, tears fell like rain.

This Xia Gongyan had a rough temperament, and when he saw his sister crying, he was at a loss, so he had to ask others: "What's wrong with your girl, what's the matter, crying like this." Changchun saw that he couldn't prevaricate, so he had to whisper what Wang Di'er said again, and said: "I'm afraid that the girl will be upset, and I want to ask the uncle to invite the grandmother to go, but the grandmother still doesn't care about it." ”

I only heard Xia Chunchao say again: "It turns out that the whole family knows, you only hide it from me, what do you mean to make this uneasy and kind sue me before Lu Chengyong is he really dead" Xia Gongyan said hesitantly: "Since my sister has come out of the Lu family, why do you have to ask him again." The Lu family couldn't wait for his sister at the beginning, and his sister only thought he was dead. My sister gave birth to Yu'er, and his family can send people to see such a ruthless family, so why bother?"

Xia Chunchao ignored this, only pulled Xia Gongyan's sleeve and said: "My brother only told me the truth, I have been married to him anyway, if he really takes the first step, I will always burn a handful of yellow paper." Brother, don't hide it from me, otherwise I won't care if it's confinement or not, and I'll go out to find out by myself" Xia Gongyan saw that he couldn't hide it, so he had to swallow and say: "Since this is the case, I will tell you the truth, but don't be angry." As he spoke, he sat down on a stool on the side and said, "What your sister-in-law said is true, the war on the frontier has started again, and the imperial court has sent 30,000 troops to suppress it. ”

When Xia Chunchao heard this, his eyes were dark, and he almost fell over. In a panic, everyone hurriedly stepped forward, and Zhu'er brought hot soup over and poured it with her. Seeing this kind of heat, Changchun took the child out.

Xia Gongyan hurriedly said: "Don't worry, then Lu Chengyong has nothing to do, he returned to Beijing on the twenty-fourth of last month." When Xia Chunchao heard this, he froze down, looked at Xia Gongyan and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, you said he was back" Xia Gongyan nodded, didn't dare to look at her, and hung his head silently. Xia Chunchao bit his lower lip tightly and asked with a white face: "Since he came back, he didn't ask anything when he saw that I wasn't at home" Xia Gongyan took a sip and said hatefully: "When he comes back, it's better to die outside." In the past, I thought he was still a person, but who knew that he was so ungrateful and ungrateful to hear that he went out this time, and he was repeatedly in danger, and saved the minister sent by the imperial court to negotiate peace with a princess of the Nayi tribe. The emperor was very happy, and wanted to make him a great official, and rewarded him with a lot of gold and silver land. How long has it been, but he has come to ask and does not come to our house to ask, as if he has never married your daughter-in-law, and the father sees such a situation, and at that time you are about to give birth, for fear that you will be troubled by this matter, and dare not tell you that you actually did not mean to hide it from you. Your sister-in-law only knows the front and the back, so she came to learn from you. ”

Xia Chunchao listened to this, was speechless for a long time, rolled down two tears for a long time, and said: "Before the strange way, Yueming came to see me, and he slurred between words, as if he had something to say to me, but he didn't dare to say it. So that's it," he suddenly burst into tears and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm still worried about how he will talk to him when he comes back." Now it seems that it doesn't take much effort. If I were to be reconciled and departed in such cases, he would surely be willing. ”

Xia Gongyan was not relieved when she saw her, and she was not sad, a stone fell to the ground in her heart, and said with a smile: "If my sister can think about it, it is naturally the best." My father and I were both worried, but I was afraid that my sister would be scorched if she found out. The Lu family is not good, what if you become a big official, such a wolf-hearted person, don't do it. ”

As he was talking, a person outside came in and asked Xia Gongyan to say, "Gongzi He sent someone to send a New Year's gift, and asked the uncle to go out to cook." When Xia Gongyan heard this, he got up and said, "This Gongzi He is so polite, and he will send us something from time to time." His family has sent people here so much, and we have never returned anything. So saying, he went out.

Xia Gongyan went out with his front foot, and Zhu'er came up and said with a smile: "The girl can think about it, but we are worried in vain." Before the words landed, I saw Xia Chunchao lying on the pillow and crying bitterly.

The three girls panicked, not persuading, not persuading, each looking at each other.

After a while, Changchun came up with the child in his arms and said, "Girl, stop it, Miss is watching." This child is also pitiful, today he was frightened by the grandmother in vain, and the girl did not say comfort, but cried at home. She was very scheming, and knowing that such a thing had happened, it was useless to persuade her, so she took the child and touched her heart.

Miss Yuqing was frightened today, and at this moment she saw her mother crying, and in the end, the mother and son were connected, and she cried with a wow.

When Xia Chunchao heard that his daughter was crying, he immediately collected his tears, took the child and held it in his arms, and coaxed him for a long time before his daughter stopped crying. She looked down, but saw a small person like a jade tuan'er wrapped in the big red satin swaddling clothes, looking at herself with big black eyes, a little little mouth, and the indescribable Yuxue was cute, which really made people hurt to the heart. The grievances, suffocation, annoyance, and hatred in my heart were suddenly watered down, and I was only full of love, and I couldn't help but secretly say: I am really confused, how can this man bear me for my daughter, I should also stand up for my own family. I also thought about not entering the Lu family door earlier, I was afraid that Lu Chengyong would come back and entangle, but now he saves me a lot of things.

Thinking of this, even though she was still a little depressed and unhappy in her heart, she reluctantly put it down, only holding her daughter on the bed, teasing the child for fun.

In the evening, Xia Dongxing returned home from the city, and when he heard about the incident, he immediately came to see his daughter, and for fear that she would become ill, he persuaded: "You don't have to take that rotten root to heart, just treat it as a dead man." Stop for a few years, and when Yu'er is older, it's up to you to remarry or recruit. Find one at random, it's not a thousand times stronger than that ungrateful thing" Xia Chunchao was sullen, but the old father smiled and said: "Father doesn't have to worry about me, I'm fine, there is such a child, it is better than a qiē." As he spoke, he couldn't help but ask again: "Lu Chengyong came back, did our family send someone to say it" Xia Dongxing said disapprerovingly: "When he came home, he saw that his daughter-in-law was not there, and he didn't know how to look for it, who didn't know what he meant" Xia Chunchao hung his head and said in a low voice: "Their family framed me for stealing people, so they kicked me out." When he came back, his father and mother had to say a few words of right and wrong in front of him, presumably because of this. Xia Dongxing slapped his hand on his leg and said loudly: "This is really a bastard couple for a few years, he still doesn't know your character, so it should be in vain to listen to a few words with him, you have to be suspicious of your wife, such a rotten prisoner, what to do with him" Two sentences, Xia Chunchao was silent and silent.

Xia Dongxing looked at his daughter like this, and sighed: "I know that you can't let go of it in your heart, and you are also a husband and wife in the end." However, everything is still good to think about, and I always keep these old feelings in my heart, and there is no benefit. Now that he doesn't want you anymore, let's look ahead. ”

These words poked Xia Chunchao's heart, and his eyes turned red again, and he hurriedly pressed it down, smiled at him, and said, "I know that my father doesn't have to worry about me, I know the severity." Xia Dongxing glanced at her twice, and said: "During the month, I don't have to cry much, and I hurt my eyes carefully." When your mother gave birth to your third brother, she heard the letter of the death of her aunt and grandmother in her hometown during the confinement period, and she cried a few times, and her eyes were broken. When Brother Xing'er was five years old, he would cry when he saw the wind. Be careful, too. ”

Xia Chunchao said in a sullen voice: "I remember it all." Xia Dongxing suddenly brushed his beard and said: "I'll go to the city today, and I will take a look at the dry goods store by the way." At the end of the year, the people who buy New Year's goods buy a lot of dry goods, and the business of the shop is booming. I watched the flow of customers from the sidelines, and at the end of the year, I don't know how much silver I can earn" Xia Chunchao smiled lightly and said: "Thanks to the shrewd and capable shopkeeper Xia, everything is organized, otherwise I don't know how to mess up." After that, he suggested to his father: "Dad, my daughter thinks in her heart, after the New Year, she will transfer half of the money in the shop to Uncle Ming." All these years, it is difficult for him to follow me as a woman. Although I opened the shop, I am a female streamer after all, and it is quite inconvenient to show up and talk about things with customers. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have made that money. What's more, all the troubles that come and go in the wind and rain are all for me. At that time, the Lu family was in trouble, and he also looked at the shop for me, so he didn't ask Lu Huancheng to move away the silver taels. Such a shopkeeper is hard to find all over the world. ”

Xia Dongxing said: "This is reasonable, naturally good." What's more, it's your shop, your shopkeeper, you can do whatever you want, and why bother telling me. Xia Chunchao nodded with a smile, and when Miss Yuqing woke up, Xia Dongxing hurriedly hugged her. He was a grandfather for the first time, and the joy and love were not a problem, and he held the girl in his arms, pampered him very much, and said with a smile: "This girl was born with a good skin, big and watery eyes, just like when you were a child." When I grow up in the future, I will also be a beauty. Zhu'er came in with hot water, and when she heard this, she interjected and smiled: "We also say the same thing on weekdays, Miss is a blessing at first glance, and she will definitely be able to get a good husband when she grows up in the future, and she will have a lifetime of happiness" Xia Chunchao sighed and said: "I can see it now, what a good husband is, it is all false." But I have more reality, and from now on, I will save some property for this child. In the future, if she is like me, she will always be able to live in peace if she encounters a wolf-hearted in-law. ”

When they heard this, they did not know how to answer, but they were silent.

Xia Dongxing sat down again, to see that it was not early, it was an elderly person, he was very tired after a day of travel, and immediately got up and went back to the room.

At this time, Xia Chunchao also yawned when he saw his daughter, coaxed her to sleep, and put her in the cradle. Zhu'er brought hot water with a face towel and served her to freshen up. She didn't want to sleep for a while, so she leaned on the pillow on the bed and watched a few girls gossip.

Bao'er came in from outside, holding a brocade box in her hand, and smiled at Xia Chunchao: "Girl, look, this is sent in by the uncle, saying that it is a gift from Gongzi He today." So saying, he opened the brocade box and sent it to her.

Xia Chunchao looked at it, but saw a string of red gold unicorn Yingluo chuan in the big red velvet, with exquisite patterns, exquisite workmanship, small and compact, but it is exactly what children wear. I only heard Bao'er smile and said: "The person sent by the He family said that Gongzi He knew that the girl had given birth to a daughter, and he was also very happy, and he couldn't come to congratulate in person, so he sent this string of ornaments over to celebrate." ”

Xia Chunchao reversed when he heard this, and reprimanded: "What kind of nonsense is this, the child I gave birth to, and it has nothing to do with him, what is he happy about" said, remembering the situation in He's house that day, He Hao was so old-fashioned, he was upset for a while, threw the jewelry into the box, and complained: "Brother is too, such a valuable thing, what do we do with him, we are not related to others, how can we accept other people's gifts" Bao'er didn't know how to be good, and stood aside without saying a word. Zhu'er came up and glanced at Bao'er, and Bao'er understood, covered the box, and went to put it away. Zhu'er smiled at Xia Chunchao and said: "It's okay for the girl, since the girl gave birth, these days, how many people come to give gifts and congratulations and not many of his family, why is the girl annoyed that Shen Gongzi also sent someone here today, and asked if the girl wants to eat anything, just make someone talk to the past." ”

Changchun picked the wick and said, "I see that this Shen Gongzi is also a strange person, the girl is so far away from him, he seems to not know." If you are a bystander, no matter how eager your mind is, it will be cold. He didn't care, and sent people every day. is so unevasive, it really makes people speechless. Although the girl was married, there was a taboo anyway, but he didn't care. Zhu'er said to her: "You have not been in the Xia family for a long time, and you don't know what happened in the past. In previous years, when the girl was young, she still lived in the Shen family, where do you care about these" The two handed over a sentence, and Xia Chunchao's face was red, and he couldn't insert a word, just looked at his daughter and didn't refute.

After a while, Bao'er went out to pour water, and Zhu'er was also invited by Niu's to do some needlework, and only Xia Chunchao and Changchun were left in the room.

Changchun came up, didn't ask, just sat on the edge of the bed, and said to Xia Chunchao: "Girl, forgive me for being presumptuous, I have something I want to ask." Saying that, without waiting for Xia Chunchao to speak, he took the lead in asking: "Does the girl really ignore the young master" Xia Chunchao's face turned red, turned white, and opened his mouth to reprimand: "Such a person, what do I do to ignore him Now it's not that I ignore him, it's that he doesn't want me." Since this is the case, we will split up in two. He will go to find a good one, and I will not let him go. He walked his Yangguan Road, I crossed my single-plank bridge, and it was not uncommon for him to hear that" Changchun heard this, so he said: "The girl and the young master are also husband and wife for many years, the young master's personality, the girl still doesn't know Although I am a girl, but I have looked at it coldly over the years, and the young master is definitely not a person who is rich and gives up the chaff." Otherwise, in the past, the girl was in charge of the Lu family, although she had no fame and honor, she was quite happy. The young master can be comfortable at home, why go to the frontier to live the career of the hob knife before returning to the young master, and he is promoted and knighted, and the girl is still the same as before. Even if the wife had a quarrel with the girl, he also protected it. Now, there must be some unexpected reasons. The girl didn't ask a word, so she ignored the young master, but she was afraid that she would also wronged people. ”

Xia Chunchao said: "You usually talk and listen to it, why is it so upside down today, he has been home these days, seeing that I am not there, won't I ask, how can the Lu family not pour dirty water on me, believe it or not, you should also come to the Xia family to ask." There is no news like this, ignore it, what kind of reason is it that he really wants to disperse, will it be like this" Changchun said: "But come, the girl also said, whether the young master believes it or not, he should go to the Xia family to ask." He hasn't come now, but you can see that there is something wrong inside. I thought to myself, the girl should send someone to the Lu family to investigate. ”

Xia Chunchao's face sank, and said: "If you want me to send someone to Lu's house, unless Xia Zi writes this upside down, don't mention it again in the future, let me hear a word, and I don't care about the past" Changchun sighed and said, "The girl is angry, and I can't say that." It's just that the girl and the young master were an excellent pair, and they dispersed like this, and I saw it in my eyes, and I was really sad in my heart. Xia Chunchao shouted: "You go outside to sleep today"

coincided with Zhu'er and Bao'er coming back, and when they heard Xia Chunchao's scolding, they were all frightened, standing against the wall, looking at each other, and didn't dare to say a word.

Changchun got up and said, "I provoked the girl to be angry, and I should be punished." The girl cherishes her body, and she should be less active during the month. So saying, he went out. Zhu'er and Bao'er rarely saw their girls angry, and they didn't know what had happened, so they didn't dare to ask. After a while, Bao'er served Xia Chunchao and fell asleep. Zhu'er thought about it, lifted the curtain, and walked outside, but saw Changchun and Yi lying on the kang, with one hand on their eyes, as if they were asleep.

Bao'er stepped forward, pushed her, and asked, "What do you think, what did you say, but you made the girl so angry." Changchun sat up, shook his head, and repeated Shicai's words. Zhu'er clapped her hands and sighed: "Okay, what are you provoking her to do, the girl is angry at this time, you can listen to it, you are uncomfortable to find this, and you have to complain, why bother" Changchun said: "I am this temper, watching a good husband and wife separate for the villain, I feel sad." Zhu'er said: "How do you know that if Lu Chengyong is not developed, he will abandon the girl to marry a better world, and Chen Shimei is still a lot." Changchun said: "You also talk nonsense, you have also served in the Lu family for a few years, what kind of person is the young master, you should also look at it, how could such a thing happen Although the girl is hard-mouthed, but you look at the situation in the daytime, it is clear that you can't forget it." What's more, now that the girl has given birth to a child again, this child is not the girl's, and the young master is also the young lady's father after all, so he should sue him. ”

When Zhu'er heard the meaning of these words, she immediately jumped up and said to Changchun: "Sister, I can advise you to avoid provoking those who are uncomfortable." If you want to pass this letter to the Lu family, and then cause any trouble, the girl and the old man may not be angry. That's not something we girls can afford to bear. Whatever the master commands, we will do. Why bother looking for those who are not happy. Changchun didn't comply, and said: "I'm just such a stubborn temper, you don't have to worry, I will carry this matter alone, and I will never burden you." Zhu'er saw that she was insistent, so she had to say: "It's okay to be on the side, you are also out now, how can you say it" Changchun smiled slightly and said: "I have my own place, don't worry." With that, he lay down on the kang again, but he fell asleep for a while.

Zhu'er touched her body, and when she saw that she was asleep, she went to blow the lamp and climbed on the kang to sleep. Today Bao'er should go to the night, leaving her alone in it, needless to say.

After another two days like this, it will be the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month in the blink of an eye.

On this day, every family is making cakes and steaming buns to prepare for the New Year. The shops in the Xia family settled the accounts, and the shopkeeper and his companions came to the Xia family one by one to ask for peace. Xia Dongxing then sealed the red envelopes of a few New Year's gifts, ranging from three, five, and ten taels, which were counted as New Year's Day rewards. These guys eat New Year's tea, go home for the New Year, and the one-year business is over.

Xia Ming was different from others, he was invited into the inner hall to serve tea, and his old club Xia Dongxing had finished inviting peace, and the guests and hosts were seated.

Xia Dongxing told his daughter what he meant earlier, Xia Mingru was overjoyed by the gold bricks and smashed the Tianling cover, he was so busy getting up and saying: "I receive a salary of five taels of silver from the counter every month, and the girl has never been rewarded every New Year, and now I am given a molecule, I really dare not be." Xia Dongxing said: "You can help her, it's not an exaggeration to eat this." Now that she has a child, she is afraid that she will not be able to distinguish her in the future, and she will be more annoying to you, so you can just take it, which is also her heart. She was going to come out and tell you in person, but the confinement didn't come out, and it was not easy to see people, so she was just. ”

When Xia Ming heard this, he insisted on kneeling down and kowtowing. Xia Dongxing tried his best to persuade him, and then they returned to their seats.

Xia Ming said: "The girl gave birth to a young lady, but fortunately, the guys in the shop were very happy when they heard about it. A few days ago, everyone also got together and gave a gift. Although it's not a good thing, it's also a thought, please look at it fresh. Xia Dongxing said: "She accepted the gift you sent and liked it very much." Although they are all local products, they are better than those that are not good for food. We businessmen pay attention to living a real life, or these realities. She is the first child, so it is inevitable that it will be harder, and there is nothing wrong with the side. It's just that after hearing about the Lu family before, I felt uncomfortable again, and I almost couldn't come back. Always for the sake of the child, he turned around. ”

Xia Ming nodded and said: "Although the girl came out of the Lu family, she and the young master of the Lu family have been married to each other, and when she heard the news, she felt sad. Xia Dongxing was very surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help asking: "Then Lu Chengyong went to be his big official and climbed his high branches, what is the Spring Dynasty going to be sad about" Xia Ming was very surprised, and asked: "Don't the old man and the girl know that the young master of the Lu family has a pair of legs that are useless, and now he is lying in bed every day, eating, drinking, and Lazar have to be served." Fortunately, the girl broke up with him, otherwise I don't know how much she will be affected in the future. ”

Xia Dongxing was taken aback, and asked again and again: "How did Lu Chengyong's leg go wrong I only heard that he made great contributions at the border, and the imperial court wanted to make him a big official, and he also gave him many rewards, why did the news change in a blink of an eye." Xia Ming nodded and said, "When Young Master Lu returned to the city, it coincided with the old master's move to the countryside, so I didn't listen to all the words. He has done a great job, but it is also true that his leg is wasted. After that, he told the truth.

It turned out that Lu Chengyong went to the border with the envoy, but the Nayi tribe changed again and suddenly rebelled. The rebels of the ministry killed the leader, plotted to usurp the throne, and slaughtered the members of the mission. Thanks to Lu Chengyong who led the crowd to fight bravely and bloodily, broke through the siege left and right, and only then did he protect the Qin Cha and his cadres to break out of the encirclement, and rescued the eldest princess of the leader of the Yi clan in the chaos. However, Lu Chengyong was hit by a poisoned arrow in his leg and there was a shortage of medical treatment at the border, which delayed the time for medical treatment, and when he was escorted back to Beijing, his legs could no longer stand. When the emperor heard the news, he took pity on him for his loyalty to the country, and specially ordered a royal doctor to treat him, but he only saved his life, but it was difficult to walk. When the court saw this situation, it specially rewarded him heavily, with land and gold and silver, but only gave him an idle position, and now he is still idle at home.

Xia Dongxing listened to Xia Ming's words, and said in his heart: It turns out that there is such a reason in it, that Lu Chengyong must be disabled in both legs, so he no longer comes to the Spring Dynasty. That's fine, but don't know about it. The child was honest, and when he heard the news, he was afraid that he would have to go back to Lu's house again. Lu Chengyong is now a wasted person, how can he delay the life of the Spring Dynasty. The Lu family is up and down, and there is no good person.

With his mind made up his mind, he said to Xia Ming: "That's the case, but I didn't know there was such a story. Anyway, since their Lu family drove out the Spring Dynasty before, we have nothing to do with them anymore. This has nothing to do with us. In the future, when you see the Spring Dynasty, don't mention it to her, and make her uncomfortable. Xia Ming is an old and sophisticated person, how can he not hear the mystery underneath, he immediately responded, and said: "I know this, the master doesn't have to command." So saying, he ate two more cups of tea, and then got up.

After sending Xia Ming out, the person at the door came in and replied: "The Lu family sent a man and a woman to greet the old man and the girl." ”

Xia Dongxing frowned, brushed his sleeves and said: "I don't see" The man said again: "The person who came said that it was the brother and sister-in-law of the Changchun girl, and said that the master was not seen, so it was good for them to meet the Changchun girl." ”

Xia Dongxing heard that it was a relative of the girl in his daughter's room, so he insisted on refusing to go out, so he thought about it and said, "Okay, you take them to the kitchen and ask Changchun to meet there." Don't alarm the girl. ”

The man answered, and turned away.

When Changchun heard that his brother and sister-in-law were coming, he was shocked, and secretly said in his heart: I was about to look for them, but they happened to come, and I don't know what happened. Could it be that something happened in the Lu family

Thinking to myself, the steps under my feet went quickly.

When she walked to the kitchen, her brother and sister-in-law were already waiting in the house, and the three brothers and sisters had seen each other, and they each sat down.

It turned out that there was a small room in this kitchen, and some miscellaneous items were piled up on weekdays, and some tables and chairs were placed in it for the woman on the stove to rest. Sometimes, family members come to see each other here.

Changchun's elder brother, named Wang Dacheng, was originally a guy in the shop when Xia Chunchao was there. fell behind, because the Lu family's stables lacked manpower, he was transferred to the stables to be a groom, and his family also worked in the kitchen.

That Wang Dacheng looked at his sister first, and saw that she was well-dressed and described very well, so he nodded and smiled: "It's a little fatter than when I was at home, and we can rest assured that you are doing well in the Xia family." He pushed him and said, "What did you say, big girl, it's good to say that people are fat." After that, he squinted at Changchun and smiled: "I see, my sister is better, and this satin cotton coat is also worn, which is better than when she listens to it in the hands of Mrs. Lu." I heard that Miss Xia was kind and generous, but now I see that this is indeed the case. Strange at that time, the girl insisted on following her to the countryside. ”

Changchun smiled and said to the two: "My brother and sister-in-law have always been good, and it is the end of the year, and the family's New Year's goods must have been prepared, I will serve here this year, I am afraid that I will not be able to go home during the year, and I hope that my brother and sister-in-law will forgive me." ”

Wang Dacheng glanced at his Hun family and sighed. Wang said: "Don't mention it, this year will not pass." When your young lady left, she dug up the Lu family, and the house collapsed when she saw it, and the girl knew about it before. Otherwise, the girl would not have come out. Before, the old man didn't know that he got a small one from the outside, and brought a brother, not to mention a lot of expenses out of thin air, and he couldn't live in peace from the moment he entered the door, and he quarreled with his wife every day, making the family chickens and dogs jump, and there was no peace. The old lady's team, you also know, no one can mention it. There is no income at home, and I sit and eat every day, and at the end of the year, I almost can't even send a monthly case. If you don't starve to death, it's already a creation, and what else to talk about buying New Year's goods I went to my mother's house yesterday, borrowed a tael of silver, and bought some white noodles and vegetables, otherwise how could I survive this year. ”

Changchun heard that the two brothers and sisters-in-law were here to fight the autumn breeze. When she went west to home, she was taken care of by two people. Sister-in-law Wang's mouth was broken, but she treated her very well. Before, Xia Chunchao's design of Aunt Lian to enter the Lu family also had a lot of her strength. Now that they are begging for it, and it is a brother and sister relationship, Changchun refuses to let them return empty-handed.

At that moment, Changchun said: "Brother and sister-in-law, sit down, there are some things in the room that need to be taken care of, I will go back when I go." Wang Dacheng hurriedly said: "The girl is at her own convenience, just let us do it here." ”

Changchun went out, and when several women in the kitchen saw a guest coming, they sent a plate of pumpkin seeds, a plate of scallion oil rolls, and a big pot of boiling tea.

Wang Dacheng walked all the way in the cold weather, drank a stomach of cold wind, and was cold and hungry. When I saw the refreshments, I didn't care about a lot, so I grabbed them and ate them. When the people outside saw that a plate of dim sum was gone, they sent a plate of crystal cakes and a plate of hibiscus cakes in.

The two of them couldn't help but sigh when they saw that the dim sum of this underground person was still so exquisite, and they didn't know how to eat it.

After a while, Changchun came back with a package, entered the door and put the package on the table, opened the buckle, but saw that there were some scattered silver taels inside, and a few taels of clear water and cotton, and two rolls of Songjiang cloth.

Wang Dacheng said: "Sister, what are you doing" Changchun said: "This is the volume I have accumulated in the past few months, I am here, and the girl is in charge of food and clothing, so I don't need these." My brother and sister-in-law will take it for the time being, and we will talk about something else after this year. The Lu family is not good, and when the spring of the next year begins, it is better for my brother to quit and find another errand. ”

Wang Dacheng immediately said: "How can this be done, we were just ordered to greet Miss Xia." I'm an elder brother, how can I take my sister's things" Wang stabbed him: "You are still pretending to be fat, you can't open the pot at home, it's rare for my sister to have this intention, take it, why are you so outside" said, and smiled at Changchunxi: "Good sister, don't lose us for hurting you." Since you have this heart, I will be cheeky to accept your affection. I haven't cut new clothes this year, so I'll make a new jacket to wear when I go back. In the middle of the year, you go out to meet guests to pay New Year's greetings, speaking of which, it is also your sister's face. ”

Changchun smiled and said, "Sister-in-law will make one for Zhao'er." I remember that Zhao'er hadn't bought any clothes for a few days. Wang smiled and agreed, suddenly pulled Changchun a slap, and said in a low voice: "Good girl, I went back to see your girl, but remember to tell her not to go back no matter what anyone from the Lu family says again." ”
