Chapter 126
In previous years, the Zhao family gave New Year's gifts to the General's Mansion, but now it has turned over. No wonder Second Mrs. Ling muttered envy, it was indeed rich and abnormal.
Of course the Ling family was happy to receive the generous gift, and more importantly, it also represented the importance that the General's Mansion attached to his daughter, thinking of this, the Ling family looked at Chu Yu, and the more he looked at it, the more happy he became.
Chu Yu also prepared one for Mr. Su, and said, "I used to hear Sister Qing talk about Mr. Qing, who has both talent and morality, which is admirable. ”
"I have a heart." Su Xian's life Su Bai thanked Chu Yu, and he was also happy for Zhao Changqing to have this family affair, especially Chu Yu is really a caring person.
Chu Yu smiled, "I heard that Ah Bai is going to take the official school exam next year, and I asked people to find a set of exam questions for the previous official school admission, Ah Bai take a look, maybe there is something to use." "In the past, his sister also looked for exam questions for the kid surnamed Ling, hum! It is to compare so that the world can understand what the gap is!
Su Bai smiled, "Thank you, Brother Chu." ”
"I'm thanking me for being admitted to the official school." Chu Yu actually gave a separate copy to Zhao Changqing in the New Year's gift to the Zhao family.
With such a formal New Year's ceremony, Chu Yu had little chance to talk to Zhao Changqing in private. After lunch, Chu Yu and Zhao Changqing said two sentences: "Sister Qing, I'm here" and "Sister Qing, I'm leaving".
All kinds of depression don't need to be mentioned.
After Chu Yu left, in the evening, the Ling clan sent Zhao Changqing a gift that Chu Yu gave to Zhao Changqing alone. Now Zhao Changqing and Zhao Rong live in the east and west wings of the inner house, and the two houses are only separated by the garden in the middle, which is very close, but they don't often visit the door.
Yihua quietly told Zhao Rong the news he had inquired about, "Gongzi Chu gave the eldest girl a set of jade jewelry, and a large one, pure white like snow, with a slight hint of silver, which is very precious." ”
Zhao Rong's face was slightly cold, "Got it." ”
In fact, Yihua said that the eldest girl has such a good family affair, which is really a happy event for the family. Even if the second girl, Zhao Rong, and her sister marry well, she can't say that she will be bright in the future, so she should be very happy.
However, Yihua has been serving Zhao Rong for several years, and she also knows that Zhao Rong has a strong nature, and the eldest girl Zhao Changqing has a good temperament, and she is lukewarm with Zhao Rong. Therefore, Zhao Changqing has a good family affair, and Huan Huan is happy for her, but Zhao Rong, the servant and maid in the West Chamber, dare not show her joy.
Looking at Zhao Rong's thoughtful appearance, Yihua sighed secretly in her heart, but unfortunately it was not her who the eldest girl took a fancy to at the beginning, Yongfu's girl is really a good life, she served with the eldest girl, and her future is in the future.
No one can hide anything from each other.
At the same time, Yongfu whispered to Zhao Changqing, "Xiang'er in Mrs. Gang's house told me that the second girl's maid Yihua asked her about the things that the son gave the girl. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "Got it." Register all of this in the book. ”
Over the years, Yongfu has also learned a few words with Zhao Changqing, and said with a smile, "The slave has been recorded." "She's always been smart.
Zhao Changqing smiled, "That's good." "Fiddling with a ruby ring that Chu Yu gave her, Chu Yu also has one on her hand, but it is bigger than hers, but the style is exactly the same.
Yongfu smiled, "This ring is so beautiful, especially under the lamp, it is shining." ”
Zhao Changqing took a look, put it in the jewelry box on the dresser, and smiled, "Remember to remind me to wear it tomorrow." ”
Yongfu smiled and said "yes" and went out to arrange the washing.
This year, the Zhao family is still very lively, but I heard that Li Mingbao has set a family affair a few years ago, and it is Zhang Fengchu, the daughter of his uncle's family. Zhao Changqing didn't know what Li Mingbao was thinking about her, because the two families often corresponded, Zhao Changqing was also very happy for Li Mingbao, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Zhang is the most polite person, and Sister Chu is the eldest daughter, and she looks and acts well." ”
Ling smiled, "Yes, although it is not common with Mrs. Zhang, I also know that it is a person who talks about the rules again, the Zhang family is a well-established family, and Miss Zhang has no character." We are relatives again, and when Brother Bao gets married, we have to go to the lively and lively. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "In other years, I also went to the Yuan Festival with Brother Li and Sister Li to enjoy the lanterns, but this year they each have a companion, so I went with my husband and Ah Ning Abai and them." ”
Zhao Changning asked, "Sister, aren't you going shopping with Brother Chu?" ”
"Brother Chu is not available on the Yuan Festival, and it has to be the sixteenth day of the first month." They had already made an appointment!
Zhao Changning's eyes lit up and asked, "Sister, can I go with you?" ”
"Okay, you and Ah Bai are here, and I asked Brother Chu to take us to eat delicious food."
"Go to the Star Pavilion?"
Zhao Changqing responded generously, "Okay!" ”
Zhao Changyu raised his little short arm and said in a milky voice, "Eldest sister, I want to go with me too!" ”
"Success, let's all go together."
Zhao Changqing only cared about being stupid and generous, and when Chu Yu came to Zhao Changqing with a smooth and smooth combing, his face was very wonderful when he saw this string of small tails.
Fortunately, Chu Yu is also a generous person, and his wife has not yet arrived, so it is naturally not good to offend this bunch of brothers-in-law. Chu Yu took them to the lamp market very gracefully, and went to the Star Pavilion to eat delicious food, and when it was midsky in the moon, he also sent the little ones home gracefully. If you exclude the fact that he shook the little hand of other girls all the way while visiting the light market, and hugged the waist of other girls several times in the name of protecting others, Chu Yu is really a good person.
When they arrived at the door of Zhao's house, Chu Yu didn't bless them at all to serve Zhao Changqing to get out of the car, he stood outside the car early, stretched out his hand, and looked like a gentleman, "Sister, be careful." ”
Zhao Changqing first handed out Zhao Changyu, who was wrapped in a hairball, Chu Yu took Zhao Changyu with one hand and hugged him into his arms, and the other hand was still stretched out to Zhao Changqing. Zhao Changqing had to hand him his hand shyly, and got out of the car with Chu Yu's hand.
Chu Yu glanced at the ruby rings with the same style on the hands of the two of them, and quietly pinched Zhao Changqing's palm and said, "It's a little late, I won't go in, say hello to Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao on my behalf." ”
Zhao Changqing nodded, feeling that Chu Yu's palm was indescribably warm, and smiled, "Be careful on the road." Rest early, and I'll go on an errand tomorrow. ”
"Okay." Chu Yu's eyes were bright, and he said softly, "Let's go in." ”
"Well, you can go back first."
Obviously, it can be explained in two sentences, and what can be clarified in half a minute, Zhao Changning really doesn't understand why his sister and Chu Yu are standing at the door and looking at each other without moving. Zhao Changning tightened the big sweater on his body, couldn't stand his sister and his brother-in-law poking at the door so stupidly, stepped forward and shook his hand between the two of them, and said, "Sister, Brother Chu, why don't you move?" Let's do it! How cold it was at the entrance of the station. ”
Zhao Changqing glanced at Zhao Changning in shame, Chu Yu also felt that he had bought his brother-in-law for nothing, how could he be so good at demolishing the stage! Su Bai snickered, pursed his lips and did not speak.
Zhao Changqing went in first, and Chu Yufang got on the horse and left.
Su Bai gossiped with his mother," Brother Chu looked at Sister Qing's eyes, and then he mentioned it. It's really redundant for us to go with us today, Brother Chu must feel that we are an eyesore. ”
Mr. Su admired the lotus lantern that Su Bai brought back, got up and hung it on the desk, nodded and said, "That's for sure." ”
"Mother, then why did you still ask us to go with Sister Qing?" Is it deliberately to be obnoxious and obscure to people's eyes?
Mr. Su was smiling, "Didn't you say that the things in the Star Pavilion are delicious?" Where is the place where I am willing to give you such a high-end place on weekdays, this is to ask you to go to eat. ”
Su Bai: ......
The little girl brought hot water and said, "It's late at night, son, wash up." ”
After Su Bai washed up, he began to soak his feet, and his mouth kept saying, "Mother, today we also ate the steamed buns made by Sister Lihua'er at the Xingxing Pavilion, which are very expensive, so a small drawer, eight xiaolongbao will cost hundreds of yuan." ”
"Is it delicious?"
Su Bai's eyes were crooked, and there was still some aftertaste, "It's delicious." ”
"It's delicious."
Su Bai sighed, "I just feel that there are really people in the world who don't look at how much silver they eat." "Brother Chu is like this, commonly known as the rich and unjust.
Mr. Su smiled, "Now you know, right?" ”
Su Bai soaked two little white feet, and asked his mother very filtily, "Mother, I want to go to the official school to stay and study in the future, will you feel bored alone." ”
Mr. Su sneered, "Listening to your tone, it seems that official learning is already in your pocket, it really blows the cow to the sky, don't laugh at me." ”
Su Bai gets an excellent scholarship in the Zhu family every year, fifty taels a year, which is more than his mother earns as a husband. Of course, it shouldn't be that way. However, in Chu Bai's small heart, he was still quite confident. Chu Bai was used to being hit by his mother, and he was still full of confidence, "I don't dare to say what is in my bag, at least I won't lose my mother's face." ”
Mr. Su smiled, "When you take the top prize, you can just tell me the same." Sitting in the well and being king, is it also worth showing off? ”
Su Bai gradually grew up, and he was no longer as foolish as he was when he was a child, he strongly demanded, "Mother, you should encourage me." "Even if the official school exam is not a big deal, you can't always laugh at him like this!
Mr. Su clapped his hands twice and smiled, "Encouragement, encouragement." ”
Su Bai turned his face away angrily, and squeaked twice in a long temper to show his dissatisfaction. Mr. Su went over and touched his little head and smiled, "Okay, if you don't sleep with me today, I encourage you to spend the night." ”
Thinking that his mother was going to encourage him for one night, Su Bai still said very wisely, "I'm already old, I want to sleep by myself." ”
Mr. Su was very sorry and sighed, "I just read a ghost story, and I'm going to tell it to you." ”
Su Bai's small head shook into a rattle, fished his feet out of the footbasin, hastily them with a footcloth, put on his shoes like a ghost and went to sleep in his own house: Oh my God, his mother is watching ghost stories again!
At the same time, Su Bai secretly made up his mind: from tomorrow onwards, he must review his homework desperately, and resolutely not give his mother any time and reason to tell him ghost stories!
After the New Year, Su Bai didn't go to school and insisted on preparing for the exam at home.
Ling's leisure chattered with her husband, "Ah Bai, this child, is good at first sight." Every day in the house, I immersed my head in the house and studied hard, I heard the white woman say, even when eating, there are words in my mouth to memorize articles. ”
Zhao Yong nodded, "It's a promising child." ”
Ling said, "Mr. Su said that if he was admitted to the official school, he would let Ah Bai go to live in the official school, and these days he has been making some of Ah Bai's courtesy bedding, and this year is only twelve, I am a little reluctant, and Mr. Su is reluctant." ”
Zhao Yong said, "If Mr. Su is worried that no one will go to the official school to pick up Ah Bai, let Laifu arrange someone." ”
"I said the same thing, Mr. Su has always had a plan, saying that he asked Ah Bai to go to refining and refining, don't raise Jiao." Ling said with a smile, "Although there is a Yan Er who used to serve, even the washing water in the morning is Ah Bai's own fetching. Mr. Su never asked Yan'er to serve Ah Bai, and Ah Bai's hair was combed by himself. Mr. Su also taught him to make a fire and cook. ”
Zhao Yong took two sips of tea and said approvingly, "This kid has a good heart." ”
"Isn't it?" Ling picked up the trick and smiled, "I'll just say that Mr. Su is a blessed person, I used to say that Ah Teng's study is good, but there are people in the clan who are better than him." Ah Bai is studying, and there is really no one in the family studies, and several gentlemen in the school like what he likes. This time, he resigned from Mr. Xueli to prepare for the official examination, and the teacher who taught him in Xueli knew that he was living with his widowed mother, and gave him twenty taels of silver, telling him to take the exam with peace of mind. ”
Although the Ling family was envious of Su Bai's appearance, he smiled, "With Ah Bai in the past few years, our Ah Ning has also studied hard, I can't say that in two or three years, Ah Ning can also go to the examiner to learn." ”
Zhao Yong has always been content with happiness, "A-Ning was better than me when I was younger. ”
Reciting the children's scriptures with his wife, Zhao Yong couldn't help asking, "Why don't you see the girls?" ”
"Changqing went out with Brother Yu, and Ah Rong went to the poetry meeting, but they haven't come back yet."
Zhao Yong sighed, "It's busier than when I go out on an errand every day." ”
Ling smiled, "It's a good time for them little girls." If no one pays attention, I'll be in a hurry. ”
Zhao Changqing is actually a little careful, but he doesn't know how to talk to Chu Yu, and he has been holding back for half a year. Today, Chu Yu asked her to come out to play, she specially brought a purse handkerchief made for Chu Yu, and said, "Brother Chu, most of your clothes are lake blue, sky blue, jade blue, and azure, and the colors I pick for purses are also elegant and stable, do you like it?" ”
Chu Yu pointed to one of them and said, "Give me a change." ”
Zhao Changqing said, "You better go back and change it yourself." ”
"There are no outsiders here." The servants had already been dispatched, so Chu Yu dared to make a little excessive request.
Zhao Changqing had something in his heart, so he relied on Chu Yu and replaced the old purse for him and replaced it with a new one. The two talked for a while, and Chu Yu had already seen that Zhao Changqing was absent-minded, and said in his heart, this stupid girl doesn't have something embarrassing to tell me.
Chu Yu was thinking about it, and Zhao Changqing spoke, because it was not easy to speak, so Zhao Changqing did not directly say what was on his mind, but said, "Now in February, the spring flowers are all blooming." ”
"Yes, Huang Cancan's is very springy."
"If it's March, the apricot blossoms on the mountain should bloom, right?"
"I took you last time, you won't forget it, will you?" Could it be that his sister wants to go to the mountains to watch the apricot blossoms? That's easy.
At other times, Chu Yu had a bright light, it was simply a song to know the elegance of the song! When it comes to this today, Chu Yu still doesn't understand! Zhao Changqing's fingers like onion pipes began to scratch Chu Yu's purse, and he half-lowered his head and said, "I haven't played the flute for a long time!" ”
Yes!
Chu Yu finally came to his senses and asked, "Don't you want to go back the purple jade flute that was returned to me, Sister Qing?" For some reason, the last sentence of "Sister Qing" still has the meaning of gnashing her teeth.
Seeing Chu Yu's reluctant appearance, Zhao Changqing pretended to be stupid and said, "Didn't you give it to me a long time ago?" ”
Chu Yu looked for the account, squinted his eyes at Zhao Changqing, and asked, "Who said those heartless words and returned the flute to me?" ”
Zhao Changqing was a little weak-hearted, "I, wasn't I scared at that time." ”
"Not confused now?" Chu Yu was very personable when he said goodbye, but now, he choked Zhao Changqing very much, and said, "Someone also told me that there is no need to meet again in the future." I couldn't sleep for days. ”
Zhao Changqing was silent, Chu Yu was very good at playing on his own, and asked, "Then do you like me now?" ”
Zhao Changqing still practiced closed-mouth meditation, Chu Yu knew that she had always been shy, and she couldn't force it out if she was afraid of it, besides, this kind of thing, what is the point of being forced. Chu Yu had his own way, he sighed, reminiscing about the original suffering, and said, "Alas, how many beatings have I taken for you?" Look at my back, the whip mark hasn't faded yet. ”
Zhao Changqing nodded, and Chu Yu said dissatisfied, "What does nodding mean?" ”
Zhao Changqing felt that even a dead person had to force Chu Yu to speak. She really couldn't stand Chu Yu's forced questions one by one, not to mention, in the end, Zhao Changqing's courage was not a little bit, so she whispered like a gnat, "I like it." ”
Chu Yu was still not satisfied, and then asked, "How much do you like it?" ”
Zhao Changqing was puzzled and puzzled, "How do you say this." "Is it possible to measure like?
"For example, if I like you, I like you, I am happy when I think of you, and I am happy when I see you. I really want to see you when I can't see you, and when I see you, I can't help but talk to you and make you happy. Even if I can't see you, I don't think about you all the time. Chu Yu said softly, "That's how I like you, what about you?" Sister Qing, do you like me? ”
Chu Yu is a very expressive person, in contrast, Zhao Changqing really doesn't have his eloquence. After Zhao Changqing listened, before he could say anything, his tears came down first.
Chu Yu hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief, crying and laughing, "What a stupid girl, what are you crying for?" I want you to be happy. ”
Zhao Changqing snorted, and his words were reversed, and said, "This, I, I, I'm crying because I'm happy." ”
Chu Yu smiled, "Then don't cry, you grin when you cry, it's not pear blossoms with rain at all, it's ugly." ”
Zhao Changqing was not happy that Chu Yu said that she was ugly, and said, "Pear blossoms with rain are all fools, who can't cry and grin!" ”
Seeing that Zhao Changqing stopped crying, Chu Yu smiled and said, "It turns out that you like me so much, I thought you didn't like me at all?" ”
"Of course I like it, I don't like who will marry you." After crying, Zhao Changqing was very frank.
"Then you still told me those heartless words at the beginning, which made me sad." As he spoke, Chu Yu was stunned for a moment. Zhao Changqing hurriedly said, "I was really scared at that moment!" Sister Chu came to my house and said that you like me, how dare I believe it? You are good in everything, my father is only six products and hundreds of households, where am I worthy of you? I really didn't think about it before! I was afraid that the general and his wife would be bad for my family, so I hurried to persuade you. Actually, what I said was also sincere, the general and his wife love you very much on weekdays, and you should say everything well, don't always be stubborn. Later, I went home and thought about it for several days before I realized that you treat me sincerely, and you have done many things for me, and I feel in my heart that even if I am not worthy of you, there may not be anyone who treats me as well as you in the future. ”
"Actually, I was very uncomfortable at that time, but who can I talk to? In this city, how many ladies are willing to be your daughter-in-law. Who knows who I am? I just said, others have to be a clam \\ toad wants to eat swan meat, dreaming in broad daylight. Zhao Changqing said, "Later, I thought about living a good life, even if I can't marry you, there is such a good person as you who really likes me and has done many things for me, I think it is also a blessing." ”
"Later, you secretly gave me a glass lamp, and the words I told you that day, I think it was the ghost who told me to say it." Zhao Changqing's expression was extremely serious, and she said, "I didn't sleep that night, because I was afraid that what I said would be heard by others." Let others know that I have seduced you. I'm also worried about what if you listen to me and go home and lose your temper and get beaten again. I've been worried for days, but you're not coming again. Later, when I heard Master say that you had been to Master, I was relieved. ”
Chu Yu was still sad for the first time, and he couldn't help but hug Zhao Changqing. Zhao Changqing obediently let him hold him for a while, thought of something, and said, "Together with the glass lamp, you have to return it to me together." ”
Chu Yu's voice was slightly hoarse, and his eyes were slightly wet, "Don't pay it back." ”
"Why don't you pay it back, it's mine!" She only returned the goods temporarily, and now she wants to come back.
Chu Yu adjusted her affection and teased her, "If you kiss me, I'll be the same." ”
Zhao Changqing pushed him away, he didn't hug him anymore, the tenderness just now was gone, and he said with a small face, "You're so beautiful!" ”
Chu Yu stepped forward with a smile, the corners of his lips swept over Zhao Changqing's cheeks, and he smiled proudly, "Then I'll kiss you instead." ”
