Chapter 11 Drink and Hate and Leave
Xie Xiang was trying to put the dishes and chopsticks, and when he saw that Xie Fuzi had entered the main hall, he hurriedly put down his things and walked to Xie Fuzi, and shouted with a smile: "Daddy is back." ”
"Well, did you listen to your mother's words today," Xie Fuzi was very relieved to see his son helping with things as soon as he entered the door.
"However, you are just sick, and although you can walk around in the courtyard, you must not go out. Are you done with today's big letters? No, don't worry, the body is always more important. Xie Fuzi bent down and touched Xie Xiang's head, and Yin Yin admonished.
"Don't you know this kid, he can't be still. The east goes to the west. Yesterday, Aunt Liu, the head of the village, asked Xiaohua to send it back, saying that she didn't remember the way. ”
Mother Xie's voice came with a smile: "You said that this child is sick and can't even remember the road in the village." I really don't know what to say. Xie Xia walked in from the door of the main hall with the soup that had just been cooked.
It's not ...... Familiarize yourself with the terrain when you go to an unfamiliar place... And then step on something...... It's just that something happened and it's too unfamiliar...... Losing yourself or something can only be said to be a wise man's thousand thoughts...... However, what's the matter, it's still a bit of a drop...... Xie Xiang thought blankly.
"Hehe, I was already young, and I was sick. I haven't been out for almost a month, and I should have forgotten it. Xie Fuzi said, taking Xie Xiang's hand and walking to the table and sitting down.
Xie Xiang's mother pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word, and also sat down.
The family began to eat, and the Xie family had the habit of being silent at the dinner table.
Xie Xiang estimated that this was a habit left by the Xie family in its heyday, although the current Xie family was confined to a small village, but this habit has always been observed. It shows the difference between the Xie family and ordinary farmers.
After dinner, Xie Xiang followed Xie Fuzi to the study. The Xie family is the structure of an ordinary southern Anhui dwelling, and it is said to be a house left by the ancestors. So there are some years, the front door is the front hall, and the front hall is a courtyard after the front hall.
The courtyard is lined with wings, and on the left from north to south is the kitchen and firewood room, as well as a house with miscellaneous items. On the right, from north to south, is Xie Xiang's room and a study, as well as a guest room.
However, the Xie family's bloodline is thin, and now he is the only one left in the Xie Fuzi lineage, who originally had a brother-in-law, but unfortunately died young. There was no blood left, so although it was the period of the popular chastity archway, his wife still returned to her parents' home.
Because the Xie family's brothers and parents are deceased, there is no reason for the sister-in-law to follow the uncle's family. Therefore, except for Xie Xia's mother's family in Xiangshui, the other relatives are some distant relatives.
Now that the Xie family is in decline, there are no broken households to bring their relatives with them, which is also a fortunate thing.
The Xie family's guest rooms are empty all year round, and there are no furniture items. It's just that Xie Xia loves cleanliness and cleans often. The main hall in the courtyard is next to it, and next to it is the room of Xie Xiang's parents.
And now, Xie Xiang is lying next to Xie Fuzi's big desk in the study, a small desk specially built for him. Xie Fuzi briefly checked the big characters drawn by Xie Xiang, explained the meaning of the words, and asked him to review them a few times. After a few words of encouragement, he assigned tomorrow's homework, and sent him to find Xie Mu to freshen up.
Xie Fuzi sent his son away, but stayed in the study to caress a few old books, silent.
Xie Xiang once sneaked to look at the titles of those books, but he repeatedly hated Xie Fuzi's big desk because it was too high and he was only a three-inch pea......
