Ma's face was also a little red when asked by the rich daughter-in-law, but Liu Ruoxi looked at it from the side, this Ma's blushing was mostly because of anger, not because of shame.

"My eldest / grandfather is tender, in front of the second wife, I am a nephew and daughter-in-law, and I speak the same." Ma distinguished.

"In any case, it's your fault to let a ten-year-old do those things. You should be kind to say, you scolded him like that, who did you think of your little brother? Mrs. Liu said Ma's Dao.

"It's true that the family is difficult, the eldest / master's errand is gone, the family has no food overnight, and the children are going to starve to death." The previous words were all recognized, Ma Shi immediately changed his face, said with a sigh, and raised his sleeves to wipe his tears, but secretly reached out again, pinched Liu Yubo, and motioned him to speak.

"The errand is gone, the family is too difficult, I can't get by, and I beg for ...... Asking for ......" Liu Yubo said differently, and when he said that he was asking for words, his face was flushed, but he couldn't say it anymore.

Liu Yuwen, who was standing behind, didn't speak, but also lowered his head, his face flushed.

Ma thought that Liu Yubo was too cowardly and couldn't speak, so he glared at Liu Yubo fiercely, and laughed at Mrs. Liu's second wife.

“…… It is said that the second wife is a bodhisattva with a heart and a lot of money in her hands. Don't look at anything else, just look at your nephew's face, so you can help make up for it. Ma Shi directly convulsed at Mrs. Liu.

Liu Ruoxi looked at it and couldn't help but shake her head secretly. Looking at the two brothers Liu Yubo and Liu Yuwen, no matter what their temperament is in other aspects, at least they still have shame and shame. And this big/grandmother Ma Shi seems to be used to stretching out her hand with people, and her face is really thick.

"According to what you said, the family is really pitiful," Mrs. Liu said, "It's just, how can people help you with what you do?" ”

"I'll change it, I'll definitely change it......" Ma Shi immediately said in a continuous voice.

Although Mrs. Liu was kind-hearted, looking at Ma's appearance, she didn't believe what she said. However, it was indeed difficult to hear Mama Chang's family talk about the situation of this family just now. Therefore, although Mrs. Liu was a little hesitant, she still decided to help her.

Mrs. Liu was just about to order someone to take the silver, but Liu Ruoxi had already seen it on the side and stretched out her hand to stop.

"Sister......

"Mother......" Liu Ruoxi was about to say something to stop her, when she caught a glimpse of Liu Yuwen next to her out of the corner of her eye, and suddenly remembered something. Liu Ruoxi's raised hand paused.

"I heard from our eldest wife a while ago, "Grandma, you are too much, and it insults the Liu family, so I don't associate with you. The eldest lady also told our wife, saying that you should not be fooled and that you should not be helped. Liu Ruoxi turned her mind and said to Ma.

"Wronged, wronged," Ma called out repeatedly, "Girl, don't listen to the nonsense of others." It's just that I don't watch out for it, and I provoke the eldest wife. It's not my fault, it's the big lady......"

Seeing that Ma was about to talk about Mrs. Liu's rights and wrongs, Liu Ruoxi raised her hand to interrupt Ma's words.

"You don't have to say it. My mother is compassionate, and she can't see your family like this. It's just that there's something to say ahead. In the future, if there is a rumor among the neighbors that you are not good to your little brother, you don't have to live here, but immediately tell the old lady and the eldest lady and have someone drive you out. lest you lose the face of the Liu family here. Liu Ruoxi said to Liu Yubo and Ma.

"That's it." Mrs. Liu nodded, and then asked the girl to take out ten taels of silver and hand it to Liu Yubo for him to live.

"Take care of your little brother, don't let people trouble him anymore." Mrs. Liu said.

Liu Yubo's face was flushed, and he thanked Mrs. Liu. Liu Yuwen didn't need to be said, so he stepped forward and kowtowed to Mrs. Liu.

"Hurry up." Mrs. Liu Er was a little unkind to see Liu Yubo and Ma, but she had a good impression of this child. Seeing that he is good-looking, well-behaved, and silent, he pities him even more.

Mrs. Liu looked at Liu Yuwen and saw that his clothes were short, so she asked the girl to take a ruler and asked Liu Yubo and Ma to go back and make new clothes for Liu Yuwen.

"Poor boy, if anything happens, go to this courtyard and tell me." Mrs. Liu also specially instructed Liu Yuwen to say.

"Brother Wen, if you're okay one day, come to the house. I'll have someone show you around. Liu Ruoxi also said to Liu Yuwen.

Seeing that the hour was not early, Mrs. Liu sent three people out.

“…… As soon as she went out, the eldest / grandmother snatched the silver and ruler, and took the ...... herself" The rich daughter-in-law followed out, came back after a while, and whispered to Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi.

"Not a virtuous person, that kid has a hard life." Mrs. Liu said, "You are always at home, take care of it more." ”

Mama Chang's family naturally agreed.

Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi came out of Mama Chang's house, got into the carriage, and went back to the house.

Before the second master Liu came back, Liu Ruoxi changed into homely clothes, and came to Mrs. Liu's house to talk to Mrs. Liu.

"Hi-er, do you like Wen'er's little kid very much?" Second Mrs. Liu asked Liu Ruoxi.

There are also many distant relatives who usually come to Liu's house to visit the house and have convulsions, but Liu Ruoxi is just polite to these people and will not pay much attention to them. Today, she personally taught Ma Shi a lesson, and spoke to Liu Yuwen so kindly, in the eyes of Mrs. Liu, it was a rare thing, so she asked so.

“…… Blame the pitiful. Liu Ruoxi thought about it and said, "A child with good rules must have a good upbringing." …… It's also a bit of a fate. ”

When Liu Ruoji said this, she looked at the face of Second Mrs. Liu.

"I also think this kid is good, and I give him the silver, and I look at him a lot. It's just that his brother and sister-in-law are different. Mrs. Liu also said.

"I looked, and my wife liked that kid a lot." Liu Ruoxi smiled.

The reason why she didn't stop Mrs. Liu from giving the silver just now was because she suddenly remembered something.

In the fourth year of Xianqing, Liu Yubo committed an accident when he was on an errand, and he was exiled to the army according to the law. It was Liu Yuwen who submitted a document to the Yamen and asked to be replaced. This incident was quite sensational at the time, and although Liu Ruoxi was already married to a wife, she also heard about it. The reason why there was a sensation at this time was that Liu Yuwen's move was really rare. Exile to the army is a matter of nine deaths at this time, and it is indeed rare for him to have such courage and affection. Moreover, at that time, his life at home has always been difficult. can't eat enough, can't wear warm, and is called by Ma as a servant. Liu Yubo, as an elder brother, turned a blind eye to this.

Liu Yuwen's move can be called revenge with virtue.

That's it, things don't have to be that sensational yet. What is shocking is that Liu Yuwen's submission, as a child who dropped out of school at the age of seven, can write a splendid article with one hand, how can it not be surprising.

Because of this incident, Liu Ruoxi knew that Liu Yuwen was really a sincere, affectionate, talented and stoic child.

Such people, she is willing to help.

Moreover, she had other ideas. It's just that this idea can't be said for a while, it has to be planned slowly, and it depends on chance. Of course, there are some opportunities that can be facilitated by man.

"Mother, you gave them silver and rulers, but do you have any other plans?" Liu Ruoxi asked Mrs. Liu.

"Exactly." Second Mrs. Liu said, "That eldest / master lost his errand, and it is not common to always rely on people for relief." I want to wait for your father to come back and ask him if he can find another errand for that grandfather. ”

"That's a good thing." Liu Ruoxi thought about it, then nodded and said, "Dad will come back in a while, let's talk to him." ”

"Mother, we helped with this, the eldest lady knows, but how about it?" Liu Ruoxi got up and brought a cup of tea to Mrs. Liu, sat down next to Mrs. Liu again, and asked with a smile.

"What can I do, I see it, I can't bear it, I can't treat it as if I didn't see it." Mrs. Liu said, "The eldest lady knows, so she will tell the truth." We also said that we want them to take good care of their little brother, otherwise, we will not follow. It's just a trivial matter, I usually don't care about things, so I give someone a few taels of silver, and I don't deserve anything. ”

"I'm afraid that the eldest lady will be annoyed over there, and there are other things." Liu Ruoxi said.

"We can't do that much." Mrs. Liu said, her tone was very disapproving.

Mrs. Liu has a gentle temperament, but she is quite chivalrous, and her heart is also very broad-minded, not limited to small sections, for some private things, she doesn't care at all, and she doesn't take it to heart, she is the most beautiful person.

Liu Ruoxi smiled, didn't say anything, only took the needle and thread, and the two of them took a few girls to do needlework together. On Mrs. Liu's birthday, the two mothers and the second master Liu copied the scriptures and sent them to the Great Xiangguo Temple for worship. Liu Ruoxi also had to work with Mrs. Liu to make two needles and threads as a birthday gift.

The two of them talked like this, doing needlework until the second master Liu came back.

Second Mrs. Liu told Second Master Liu about Liu Yuwen.

“…… with my own money. Second Mrs. Liu told Second Master Liu.

"Their family...... Oh, you're doing it right. When Second Master Liu heard this, he nodded and said, "The person that the old lady valued very much at the beginning is attached to us, and we can't ignore it." …… His son is not like that? ”

"It looks like it's a no-brainer." Mrs. Liu said, "I still have to work and work ...... old man" and told Second Mrs. Liu about helping Liu Yubo find another errand.

"I remember that he had read books and was a showman." Second Master Liu thought about it, "I'll tell Da Lang later, let Da Lang help him find another errand." ”

At this time, in terms of general affairs, Second Master Liu was already somewhat dependent on Liu Yujiang. And Liu Yujiang is indeed very good at general affairs. However, this matter must not be allowed to be done by Liu Yujiang.
