When the little maid saw the wife of the Ding family coming, she greeted her with a smile on her face, and said, "I still think that you won't come again, so I'll send someone to urge you." ”

Mrs. Ding raised her eyebrows, "What?" Are you afraid that I won't come to support your business? ”

can joke like this, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is really good.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Mrs. Ding pointed to Luo and the little lady and said, "This is the wife of the Xia family in Yanghuai Hutong." ”

He pointed to the little maid and Luo Shi, "This is the sister I talked about with Mrs. Xia, and her husband's surname is Guo." ”

The little maid lady hurriedly let go of Mrs. Ding and greeted Luo, "Mrs. Xia." ”

Roche smiled and returned the salute, "Mrs. Guo." ”

Mrs. Ding introduced Eleven Niang again, and the little maid lady's eyes lit up when she saw Eleven Niang, and she smiled and took Eleven Niang's hand, saying that she was as obedient as Mrs. Ding when she saw Eleven Niang, and praised Eleven Niang as a fairy in the sky.

What mother doesn't like to be praised for her child?

Seeing the sincerity of the little girl's praise, the smile on Luo's face was even stronger, but after a while, the three of them had already joined hands and went into the store to look at the cloth.

Eleven Niang followed around the store, discussed with Luo a few pieces of fabric for Er Niang and San Niang as dowries, and added some materials to the family, so she left the fabric store under the pretext of going around.

Yan Xia waited in a tea house outside the mouth of the alley, and when he saw Eleven Niang coming out, he got up busily, "Girl, the slave maid inquired, the Li family's iron-making shop is only a few alleys away from here, and the fifth alley entrance before going out of this road is inside." ”

Eleven Niang nodded, and went all the way to Li's house with Yan Xia to play iron shop.

No, Xia Chengxiang is not in the shop.

The girl of the Li family is wearing a coarse cloth hairpin skirt, with a delicate appearance, empty ears and no earrings that are common to women nowadays, and her body is slightly thin, but she is very assertive between her eyebrows.

Hearing that Eleven Niang reported to her home, the girl of the Li family said with a smile, "Wulang said that he had something to go home, and he is not in the shop at the moment, why don't I tell him when he comes back and let him find the girl?" ”

Eleven Niang frowned, so coincidental? After thinking about it, he still said, "I wanted to persuade the girl in front of the fifth uncle, but the fifth uncle was not there...... It's good. Girl, maybe take a step to speak? ”

The girl of the Li family was obviously stunned, and frowned slightly, "Me? What does the girl have to say to me? ”

Shi Niang looked left and right, and pointed to an open space more than a dozen steps away from the Li family's shop, "Take a step to speak." ”

The girl of the Li family looked at her eyebrows a little, looked up and down at Eleven Niang, and nodded, "Cheng." ”

The two of them left the Li family's shop, and before Eleven Niang could speak, the Li family girl had already smiled and said, "The girl is here for your fifth uncle's business?" ”

Eleven Niang also smiled, "Sister Li...... The girl is a transparent person, and Eleven Niang will say it directly if she has something to say. ”

Eleven Niang wanted to call her sister, but thinking that if she married Xia Chengxiang, she would be her little sister-in-law, so she couldn't help but change her words slightly.

The girl of the Li family pursed her lips and chuckled, suddenly remembered something, smiled, and sighed, "I know what the girl wants to say, this matter is just fate for us, and we can't force it." ”

"What is fate and what is share?" Eleven Niang asked rhetorically.

The girl of the Li family was stunned, but she didn't know how to answer Eleven Niang's question.

Eleven Niang smiled, "The girl and my fifth uncle have a ten-year friendship with each other, this is a share; There are so many people in Da'an, but my fifth uncle met the girl, this is fate. But no matter how good the fate is, you also need to fight for it, and it is better not to have this fate if you don't fight for it! ”

The girl of the Li family looked at Shi Niang and smiled bitterly.

Eleven Niang didn't think she would answer, and continued, "I don't ask why the girl refused to marry into the Xia family first, I just ask the girl, can you guarantee that the man you are looking for will not go back on his word if he gets your Li family's shop?" Can you guarantee that he will be better than my fifth uncle to you in the future? ”

The girl of the Li family pursed her lips, her lips trembled, and she didn't open her eyes.

Eleven Niang sighed slightly in her heart, "What kind of person my fifth uncle is, the girl knows better than me." Although my grandmother has a bad temper, the fifth uncle is a person with opinions, and he will not let the girl be wronged. If the girl finds someone to marry for the sake of incense, what if that person doesn't admit the girl later? My fifth uncle has promised to continue the incense for the Li family with a son, and the incense will not be repeated, the girl should know......"

The girl of the Li family nodded with red eyes, with a wry smile on her face, "I know what the girl said, but what if Goro's family is unwilling at that time?" How can Gorou be a person in the middle? How do I deal with my dad and ......?"

"The girl doesn't believe my fifth uncle anymore."

The girl of the Li family was stunned and shook her head hurriedly, "I don't, I ......"

"Unless you don't get married, if you do, you're bound to have a fight. My fifth uncle has worked hard for your family, what have you done, girl? You're backing up! ”

"I ......" The girl of the Li family was with me for a long time, but she couldn't say anything to refute.

"It's easy to ask for priceless treasures, and it's rare to have a lover. Think about it, girl. "The eleventh mother who should be said has said it, and it's a personal matter if she can't figure it out, so the eleven lady said goodbye and turned away.

The two walked out of the alley, the girl of the Li family was still looking, and the old man of the Li family came out of the house and looked forward along his daughter's line of sight, "What's wrong?" I just heard you talking to someone, but ......"

The girl of the Li family hurriedly closed her eyes, lowered her head and shook her head at the old man of the Li family, "A one who asks for directions." ”

After the words fell, he walked quickly towards the house, his eyes were red, and there were water waves shaking in the corners of his eyes.

The old man of the Li family let out a long sigh.

"This girl from the Li family looks good, and she has a relationship with the fifth master......" Yan Xia whispered beside Eleven Niang.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but sigh, this kind of thing will be looked down upon in modern times, the feudal thinking of the old man of the Xia family and the old lady Qiao is deep-rooted, how can he be willing? !

She originally wanted to come to meet Xia Chengxiang and hear what he meant, but who knows......

Eleven Niang could almost guess his intention of returning to Jiuli Pavilion at this moment, no

The intention of returning to Jiuli Pavilion is that you don't have to think about it to know that the result will be in vain, and maybe you will be accused of great unfilial piety by Mrs. Qiao.

I hope that this girl from the Li family can understand Xia Chengxiang's sincerity, and Mo Zuojian hurt Xia Chengxiang herself.

Back in the store, Roche and Mrs. Ding were smiling and talking about tailoring, and when they saw Eleven Niang coming back, they got up one after another, Mrs. Guo retained, and Mrs. Ding laughed and said, "You are too busy today, we will look for you to play another day." ”

Mrs. Guo only smiled and apologized and said that she would have a good banquet for the two sisters another day, and personally sent the two out of the alley before turning back.

When they got home, it was past noon, and Roche and Mrs. Ding said a few words, and then went home.

After the family ate, Luo Zhang Luo moved the fabrics out of the car, and told Erniang and Sanniang which fabrics are suitable for what season's clothes, and which ones are suitable for embroidering what flowers are more exquisite.

The two listened very carefully.

Banniang pulled Eleven Niang to watch her practice martial arts, although the moves were a little stiff, they were already decent and full of strength.

A smile flashed in Huichun's eyes, "The eighth girl has a good body, although she is not as good as the girl, but she is also a person who can practice martial arts." ”

Eleven Niang appreciated it in her heart, her kung fu is a modern benefit, unlike Banniang, who has such achievements in just two or three months!

It can't be said because of the blood of the old man of the Luo family.

In the afternoon, when it was almost dark, Xia Chengxiang came.

But there are scratches on his face and hands.

Xia Chenghe hurriedly called Luo to get the medicine, and Xia Chengxiang was silent and let Xia Chenghe help deal with the wound, "Old Five, what's the matter?" ”

Xia Chengxiang raised his head dejectedly, his eyes were full of dazed and helpless, "Third brother, my father and mother still don't agree!" What should I do? ”

Xia Chenghe was stunned, "Daddy doesn't agree with you and the girl of the Li family?" ”

Xia Chengxiang snorted.

Xia Chenghe and Luo glanced at each other, Luo glanced at his daughters, Er Niang and San Niang pulled Banniang and retreated, but Eleven Niang walked over to Xia Chengxiang's side and asked, "Fifth uncle, does grandma agree with your relationship with the girl of the Li family or do you agree with you to join the Li family?" ”

"Eleven Niang......" Xia Chenghe was afraid that what his daughter said would hurt Xia Chengxiang, so he called Eleven Niang.

Xia Chengxiang smiled bitterly, "What's the difference?" My father said that if I dare to marry the sister of the Li family, I will not recognize me as a son! ”

"This ......," Xia Chenghe was stunned, "Didn't you tell your father and mother that you just passed on a son to inherit the incense for the Li family?" ”

Xia Chengxiang shook his head, "It's useless, my father and mother just won't let me marry the Li family's sister now!" ”

Xia Chengxiang hugged his head with a painful look.

"Third brother, you teach me, what should I do?"

Xia Chenghe Moran, what can he do? Now that he is going to the old house, his father doesn't even look at him, and his mother's eyes are eager to rip off the flesh on his body.

There was silence in the room.

After a long time, Eleven Niang suddenly said loudly, "What the fifth uncle wants to do, my father and mother will stand on your side and support you." ”

She could see that Xia Chengxiang really liked the girl from the Li family.

Life is short, what is more painful than being happy but not being able to stay together?

Xia Cheng and Huo Ran looked up, and Luo also looked at their daughter in surprise, and the couple obviously understood the meaning of Eleven Niang's words.

Xia Chengxiang also raised his head violently, looking at the smiling Eleven Niang, "Eleven Niang......"

Eleven Niang smiled, "Grandma has their considerations, and the fifth uncle has his own considerations, if the fifth uncle feels that he has not done anything wrong, why should he be afraid?" ”

Xia Chenghe and Luo looked at each other, didn't this girl understand that she was telling the fifth child, and her father and mother were unreasonable?

"But your grandmother ......" Xia Chengxiang understood what Eleven Niang meant, and there was a look of hesitation between his eyebrows.

Eleven Niang smiled even brighter, "Grandma thinks that sending our sisters to the county government and the government can help the Xia family shine on the lintel, have they ever admitted their mistakes?" ”

Xia Chenghe and Luo's bodies shook at the same time.

Xia Chengxiang looked at Eleven Niang and couldn't speak for a long time. In the middle of the ring, he got up, "I'll go and tell my father and mother that I am married to the sister of the Li family!" ”

The words fell, and he strode out to listen to Hexuan.

Xia Chenghe walked a few steps, opened his mouth to call Xia Chengxiang, and thought of Shi Niang's sentence, "Have they ever admitted their mistakes......" and paused.

Luo was worried, pointed at Eleven Niang and scolded, "You kid, what nonsense are you talking about in front of your fifth uncle!" ”

"Mother, the fifth uncle likes the Li family girl, and the Li family girl also likes the fifth uncle, do you want to watch them marry each other indiscriminately because of their grandmother's opposition, and spoil themselves?" Eleven Niang smiled innocently.

Luo opened his mouth, couldn't answer, called Xia Chenghe, but Xia Chenghe said, "What Eleven Niang said is right, love is rare, my father and mother already have so many grandchildren with the surname Xia, and it doesn't hurt to have one less." ”

Roche was dumbfounded, that was a son. What's wrong with her father?

Xia Chenghe's face was gentle, touched Eleven Niang's head, and smiled lightly, "My Eleven Niang has grown up, and she will be able to marry in a blink of an eye......"

There is a sadness that can't be concealed at the bottom of his eyes.

Roche looked at it, and his nose was sour.

Eleven Niang grinned and ripped off the arms of the two, "I don't want to get married so early, I'm still waiting to help my mother take care of my little brother." ”

The couple was stunned, and Luo blushed and glared at his daughter.

Eleven Niang smiled, "Dad, mother, I brought something back from Jianghuai, let's go see grandpa and grandma in two days, right?" By the way, go and see the third aunt, the third aunt asked me to bring something for the third aunt......"

was so beaten by her, the two of them also forgot about Shicai's unhappiness, and responded with a smile, Xia Chenghe also said, "Your grandfather's favorite chrysanthemum brew is the most, I'll go buy two jars tomorrow......"

……

Two days later, Baiweizhai was suddenly seized, and all the personnel were arrested and taken to the county office.

Xia Chengle and the Huang family were inexplicable, and the officials who came and went to arrest people stuffed silver in their hands, "Official, what did you say?" We also recognize the young master in the house

The young master also recognizes it, you see ......"

The official took the silver, stuffed it into his sleeve, and said lightly, "It's useless to recognize it, whoever told you not to offend, but offended Fanghuazhai!" Don't blame me for not reminding you when I received the money, you should know each other when you should know each other, so as not to suffer and suffer from sin. ”

Both of them were stunned.

When did they offend Fang Hua Pavilion?

They have nothing to do with Fanghua Pavilion at all?

Xia Chengle nodded with a smile and asked, "We have nothing to do with Fanghua Pavilion, is there a mistake in this matter?" ”

"Mistaken?" The official snorted and squinted at Xia Chengle, "The shopkeeper of the Renfanghua Pavilion personally went to complain, beat the drum, and handed the paper, there can still be mistakes!" Alright, hurry up and don't grind. ”

pushed Xia Chengle.

Xia Chengle stumbled, almost fell to the ground, and was almost helped by the Huang family.

Huang said in a panic, "His father, what's going on?" Why are we on Fanghua Pavilion? ”

Xia Chengle shook off the Huang family, "You ask me, who do I ask?!" ”

"Dad, let's send a message to the uncle and see if he can walk a way over there......" Huang Shi said.

Xia Chengle frowned, looking at the guy who was pushed away in front of him and was very annoyed, this business has only been done for a few days, and it has only been hot for a few days, why did he get involved in a lawsuit with Fanghua Pavilion?

After listening to Huang's words, his eyes rolled, the shop is a partnership between two families, there is no reason for them to suffer, and the big house is idle.

Then he pulled Huang to whisper a few words, Huang nodded again and again, answered, stuffed the official again halfway, fell to the back of the team, and waited for the people to go away and ran to Dafang's house.

Xia Chengping frowned, "Brought someone to ask?" But what did you say? ”

Huang shook his head, thinking about Xia Chengle's words, "You went to find the eldest brother, don't tell him what happened in the store first, and lead someone to the court." ”

Huang said, "Our regular business shouldn't be a big deal, maybe we want to make some money." I'm not thinking that the uncle and the county government can talk, so I come to bother the uncle to make a trip and make it convenient. ”

Zhao persuaded on the side, "Master, this shop is opened by us, and there is not much left after being exploited by the county government, so it is better to go for a trip and say a few good words." ”

Xia Chengping thought that Baiwei Zhai's business was doing well, and he would be able to make some progress in a month, and when he became a talented master, he would have to take the silver to Yunzhou to make some money, if he was cut down at the moment, then he would have one less entry.

At that moment, he changed his robe and hired a carriage to go to the county office.

But I don't want to, when I arrived at the county office, the county lord was ascending, and Xia Chengle was being beaten!

"Ahh

"Ah...... Lord Qingtian, the villain really didn't steal ...... Yes! ”

“…… I really didn't steal Fang Hua Zhai...... The recipe ......"

"Could it be that the shopkeeper Liu of Fanghua Pavilion still wronged you? Don't recruit the old man from the truth! The cold voice was a bit majestic, and he was shocked and shouted.

"The villain really didn't steal it......" Xia Chengle's tears of pain fell.

Xia Chengping was shocked, Fangzi? What recipe? The fourth person who opened Baiwei Zhai memorized many kinds of pastry recipes?!

It was actually stolen from Fanghua Zhai?!

Xia Chengping turned around and asked Huang, "You stole Fanghuazhai's pastry recipe?" ”

Huang was frightened by Xia Chengle's mournful scream, Xia Chengping still looked frightened when he looked at her, and shook his head again and again, "No, no!" We didn't steal Fanghuazhai's pastry recipe! ”

"Why did the shopkeeper Liu of Fanghua Pavilion say that you stole ......," Xia Chengping snapped.

Xia Chengle screamed miserably, Huang was afraid that he would have a good deal, so he was red-eyed, regardless of his identity, he went up and grabbed Xia Chengping's sleeve, "Uncle, you can speak, you go and say a few words, let the county master let my family go, this person can't beat like this...... Something will happen! ”

"He stole the recipe of Fanghua Pavilion, what did you ask me to tell the county master? Let go! Xia Chengping wanted to get rid of the Huang family but couldn't get rid of it, so the Zhao family hurriedly came over to help pull, "You want to let go, what does it look like to pull and pull!" ”

Huang cried, "That recipe is not from Fanghua Pavilion, that recipe is from Sanfang!" ”

Xia Chengping and his wife were stunned, "Three-room? ”

"Uncle him, go and talk to the county magistrate, if it's too late, you'll break people......" Huang dragged Xia Chengping into the yamen.

The commotion of a few people attracted the officials, "What are you guys making trouble at the gate of the county ya?" The old man is interrogating the prisoners, you leave quickly! ”

"Prisoners?" Huang's body trembled, grabbed Xia Chengping and pushed forward, "Official, this is my uncle, and I have a good relationship with the county master!" My man didn't steal, my uncle can testify! ”

Xia Chengping's face immediately didn't look good!

The official glanced at Xia Chengping, his words were a little presumptuous, and asked, "Are you?" ”

"The surname is Xia, the student who participated in the scientific examination this year." Xia Chengping pushed Huang away, stood firm, and said lightly.

The official immediately smiled a little, "Xia Xiucai." ”

Xia Chengping clenched his fists, "Official, what's going on?" ”

The official went down the steps, took Xia Chengping aside a few steps, and said in a low voice, "The shopkeeper Liu of Fanghua Pavilion personally brought someone here, saying that Brother Ling stole their Fanghua Pavilion's recipe and opened Baiwei Zhai, the eldest master was furious, this matter is not good." The little one advised the old man Xiucai, but he still wanted to let Brother Ling bow his head first and admit his mistake, at most he would pay back the prescription with some silver, and when the time came, the eldest master would make peace with him, and the matter would be over. If you are tough, I am afraid that the old man Xiucai will also suffer......"

"This ......" Xia Chengping frowned, there was the pride of the official in his heart, and the annoyance of the Huang family pushing himself, if it wasn't for that few points of entry, for a moment, Xia Chengping smiled, "This recipe was originally owned by the third brother of my family, and the third brother's shop was closed, and the fourth brother took over, and it has nothing to do with Fanghua Pavilion, is there any misunderstanding in this?" ”

This time, the official laughed

But the servant laughed and said nothing.

Xia Chengping couldn't get an answer, and wanted to say something, but the official arched his hand and turned to leave.

Huang had already rushed into the lobby, knelt down and howled, "Lord Qingtian, wronged!" We do our duty to do business, but there is absolutely no way to steal Fanghua Pavilion! ”

"Who's in the hall? Register your name. ”

"Woman Huang. Master, my man is wronged, and our recipe is definitely not stealing Fanghua Pavilion! It's our three-bedroom family! Master Mingjian! ”

Lord Liang waved his hand, and the official who was playing the board stopped and stepped aside.

Huang rushed over, "Dad, you ......"

Xia Chengle screamed, "Why are you here!" What about the big brother? Ouch, it hurts me......"

Huang pointed outside, "His uncle and sister-in-law are outside." ”

Xia Chengle pointed outside and said to Lord Liang, "My lord, my eldest brother is this year's showman, if you don't believe it, you can ask my eldest brother!" This shop is a partnership between our brothers ......"

Lord Liang glanced at Shopkeeper Liu under the hall, and Shopkeeper Liu nodded imperceptibly.

Liang Dadao, "In this case, come and bring in the people from the outside for Master Ben." ”

Xia Chengping was extremely annoyed, looking at the four of them, they are usually very shrewd in their words and actions, how come they get to the hall and they can't tell what to say and what they shouldn't say!

If the fourth child doesn't say the last word of cooperation, he can still help say two good words, and as soon as the fourth child says this, he becomes an accomplice, what else can he say?!

The party that lost belonged to the third family, not Fanghua Pavilion, otherwise he would not have been imprisoned?!

It's stupid!

"Student Xia Chengping, I have met the magistrate." Xia Chengping humbly bowed and smiled.

Lord Liang frowned, and the master on the side observed his words and looked at his expression, and had already scolded loudly, "Bold, don't you kneel when you see your lord?" ”

Xia Chengping hurriedly said with a smile, "The student has passed the annual examination, and after the scientific examination in August, he will have the fame of showing talent." ”

"Then it's not a showman!" Shopkeeper Liu smiled.

Lord Liang was shocked, "Don't kneel down yet!" ”

The lobby suddenly sounded "mighty".

Zhao's knees weakened and he fell to his knees.

Xia Chengping was also panicked, and slowly knelt down, "Student Xia Chengping, I've seen Lord Zhixian!" ”
