Add more, ask for recommendations.

The little girl opened the curtain, and Liu Ruoxi followed behind Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu/into the upper room. As soon as I entered the house, the hot air was filled with thick sandalwood. Mrs. Liu respects the Buddha, and the house is lit with Buddha incense almost all day long.

Liu Ruoxi followed Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu to greet Old Mrs. Liu, and everyone got up to see each other before they sat down again.

Mrs. Liu's couch was covered with a whole piece of thick black fur, and Mrs. Liu leaned on the pillow and sat on the fur. Liu Ruoyuan and the big official were both sitting in front of Mrs. Liu, and Liu Ruoyuan even leaned her head into Mrs. Liu's arms, very intimate. Liu Ruojuan was also sitting on the couch, a little far away from Mrs. Liu, and was taking the eldest sister and the second sister, and Mrs. Liu's girls Yueji and Lamei were wrapped with colored velvet.

Falling next to each other, there were two rows of chairs. Master Liu sat on the first chair next to the couch, and Mrs. Liu, Liu Da/Grandma, Liu Yujiang, and Liu Yuhai all sat in order.

was a happy scene, seeing that Mrs. Liu's face was red/moist, with a smile on her eyebrows, she was obviously very happy.

Liu Ruoxi and the others came in, and the order of the seats was adjusted again. Second Master Liu sat next to Master Liu, and Liu Ruoji followed Second Mrs. Liu to sit under Mrs. Liu.

Second Master Liu whispered to Master Liu first, and Mrs. Liu accosted Second Mrs. Liu, but looked at Master Liu from the corner of her eyes. Liu Ruoxi saw it clearly from the side, and the people who looked at the room seemed to have their own things, but everyone's attention was on Master Liu and Second Master Liu, except for Mrs. Liu.

Master Liu listened to Second Master Liu's words, first nodded, and finally seemed to groan.

"It's okay for anything else, the second brother is not bad. It is...... Isn't it inappropriate to send that child to study, just find a private school with a good reputation, and send him to Zongxue? The second brother should think again. Master Liu said. He didn't deliberately raise his voice, but Liu Ruoxi still heard it clearly.

Come to think of it, these people on the couch also heard it.

"It's not that I haven't thought about it," Second Master Liu originally thought in his heart, as soon as he said this, Master Liu would definitely nod, so he was slightly stunned, but he didn't take it to heart, just sincerely explained his thoughts to Master Liu, "...... Zongxue is the best, send it elsewhere, for fear of delaying him. The eldest brother has free time, so let him kowtow to the eldest brother. The eldest brother must think the same as the brother when he takes the school exam. It is also a common thing for the children of our family to be sent to the sect. ”

Zongxue was originally a school to teach the children of the clan, and the outstanding ones were selected from the children of the noble ministers of the court. The Liu family has been scholarly for generations, and it is a family of bachelors from Hanlin. Second Master Liu is now in the Hanlin Academy, and he has been under the double shadow of his deceased father and father-in-law, and he is different from others. The children of the Liu family can enter the sect, for example, Liu Yuhai is studying in the sect. And even if he is not a child of the Liu family, if the second master of Liu wants to send two people in, he only needs to say hello to Zongxue.

"The boy had only been studying in a private school for less than a year, after all, he was still young. I know that the second brother has a love for talent, so I will take a look at it slowly, and when I see that he is really a manufacturable material, it is not too late to carry him out. …… If you send it to Zongxue like this, if you disappoint the second brother, it will not be beautiful. Master Liu said.

"You brothers, what are you whispering and hiding from my wife? Can't tell me about it? Mrs. Liu asked.

"Mother......" Second Master Liu stood up in a hurry, and was about to report to Mrs. Liu about Liu Yuwen. He thought that even if Master Liu had some objections, as long as Mrs. Liu agreed, there would be no hindrance. He thought that there was no reason for Mrs. Liu not to agree to this matter.

Liu Ruoxi coughed dryly beside her, and when she saw the little girl bringing tea up, she hurriedly got up, took the teacup, walked to the couch, and personally held it to Mrs. Liu. As soon as she interrupted, Second Master Liu's words stopped.

"Old lady, my father remembered that my grandfather was here......" brought tea to Mrs. Liu, and Liu Ruoxi simply sat on the edge of the couch, ignoring the strange gaze cast by Liu Ruoyuan.

"Oh?" Mrs. Liu took the tea, didn't drink it, and looked at Liu Ruoxi with some puzzlement, and then looked at the second master Liu.

The other people in the room heard Liu Ruoxi talk about the deceased old lady Liu, and they couldn't help but listen with bated breath.

"In the past two days, my father has always dreamed of my grandfather's ......," Liu Ruoxi continued, "I always tell my mother and me about the things that my grandfather said when he was there. I always say that my grandfather died too early, and I didn't have time to fulfill my filial piety, and I regretted many things. ”

Old Lady Liu's expression darkened a little, and the faces of the other people in the room also showed sad looks.

“…… Needless to say, the old lady was doubly filial, and remembered the good deeds that her grandfather had done when he was alive. Seeing that the heat was just right, Liu Ruoxi was busy and cleverly introduced the topic to Liu Yubo, the father of Liu Yubo and Liu Yuwen's brothers, Liu Yufeng, "Grandfather appreciates him very much." It's a pity that he was not blessed and walked ahead of his grandfather.

mentioned Liu Yufeng, naturally talking about Liu Yuwen.

"I heard my father sigh about how their house had fallen into such a tatters. My father said that before my grandfather died, he also instructed my father to take good care of the family. They are all descendants of the Liu family, and they have to work hard in their careers. ”

Second Master Liu is a smart person, and he was a little surprised at first, but when he heard Liu Ruoxi say this, he completely understood. There is no need for Liu Ruoxi to say more, he already knows how to pick up the stubble.

"My father earnestly asked him to take a good look at his family. Although his brother and sister-in-law are not successful, this child is good. Sent to Zongxue, it can be regarded as living up to his father. Speaking of this, the second master Liu straightened his clothes, "If you don't change your father's way for three years, it's for filial piety." ”

Second Master Liu quoted the words of the sage, and what he said was filial piety, Lord Liu immediately stood up, and then Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhai also got up, and they all stood respectfully with their hands down. Liu Yujiang half-bowed his head, and the expression on his face was obscure.

Mrs. Liu took a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and the ladies did not dare to sit anymore, so they all stood up.

Liu Ruoyuan was going to be coquettish in front of Mrs. Liu, but she was glared at by Mrs. Liu, she pursed her lips, glanced at Liu Ruoyuan hatefully, and had to get up from the couch.

"Mother should also mourn and not hurt her body." Second Master Liu said busily.

Mrs. Liu is old, and although she is sad when she thinks of the deceased Mrs. Liu, there are not many tears.

"Remember your father, you forgot it without filial piety...... Ay. Mrs. Liu took away the handkerchief, her eyes were slightly red, "What you said about this child, I just heard the big girl tell me." ”

Mrs. Liu, Grandma Liu, and Liu Ruoyuan's faces all flashed with a different color, and the soles of Liuda/Grandma's feet seemed to be a little uncomfortable, and they moved uneasily.

Mrs. Liu is actually a person who doesn't have much of a city government, and she leaked the bottom of some people in one sentence. She originally listened to the words of Liu Ruoyuan, Liu Da/Grandma and Mrs. Liu, and wanted to dismiss Second Master Liu, prevent him from sending Liu Yuwen to Zongxue, and reprimand Second Mrs. Liu for helping that family without authorization.

Mrs. Liu didn't know much about the words of a saint. However, Liu Ruoxi's words, saying that this was the second master Liu inheriting the will of the old lady Liu and fulfilling the last wish of the old lady Liu, she was pushed to say the words aside.

Moreover, this matter is nothing to her, she also remembered the kindness of the deceased Mrs. Liu to Liu Yufeng's family, and she was unwilling to go against Mrs. Liu's wishes.

"I don't know anything about sectarianism or non-sectarianism, you brothers will discuss it." Mrs. Liu said, and sighed, "The lady who filled the house is a good person. It's a pity that he died early. The child you are talking about is also suffering from a hard life. People say that he is not a weapon, but you look at it? Look at him first. His sister-in-law is not a thing! Behind my back, I said! ”

When Mrs. Liu said this, many people in the house secretly complained to themselves, but Liu Ruoxi was happy in her heart, and secretly winked at Second Master Liu.

Sometimes, the same thing, different statements, get very different results. Although Second Master Liu is smart, he refuses to be attentive in this regard, and is too straightforward. Of course, because he didn't feel the need to do so. It's just that from today onwards, the idea of coming to Master Liu will also change.

Second Master Liu didn't say anything, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Big brother, look at ......" Second Master Liu discussed with Master Liu again, "This child is out of breath, and he is also the arm of the family." ”

Master Liu was very happy this time. is different from Mrs. Liu, he understands the words of a sage, so he naturally knows the weight of Mr. Liu's words. Moreover, if Mrs. Liu can still dismiss Mrs. Liu's affairs, he can't say a word.

"I'm also cautious, everything depends on the second brother's will. I've been busy lately, and I'm a little confused, thanks to the second brother. ”、

"Big brother is also for me and for the good of the family." Second Master Liu said, "I have also written down those words of the eldest brother, and I must be cautious." ”

Master Liu nodded.

"I'll leave this matter to the second brother. If he is a good boy, he will also have a study partner with Yuhai in the future. ”

"Exactly." Second Master Liu said with a smile.

Liu Yuwen went to study in Zongxue, so it was decided. Second Master Liu said that he would let Liu Yuwen enter the house tomorrow and kowtow to Mrs. Liu.

"I want him to remember the kindness of the old lady. It's all the old lady's kindness, and when he comes out in the future, he will first repay the old lady's kindness. Liu Ruoxi said with a smile.

"I want him to repay the favor." Old Lady Liu said.

"The old lady Bodhisattva has a heart, of course, no one wants to repay the favor. However, this merit, the Buddha and Bodhisattva must be recorded on the old lady's head. Liu Ruoxi smiled again.

Mrs. Liu believes in Buddhism, and this sentence made Mrs. Liu happy, and it seemed to be much more pleasing to the eye when she looked at Liu Ruoxi.

The crowd sat in Mrs. Liu's house for a while, and then dispersed.

"Sister-in-law, what should I tell the old lady, what should I not bother the old lady, sister-in-law has been a home for so long, don't you know?" Out of Mrs. Liu's yard, Liu Ruoxi stood still, turned around, and said to Liu Da/Grandma with a smile, "Today's matter, I don't know who is chewing the root of the tongue in front of the old lady, this is to trap the old lady in injustice!" What a boldness, what a heartache! ”

Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoyuan were both beside them, one with a white face and the other with a red face.
