Chapter 123 - Matters of the Heart
After writing the family tree, the second master Liu led Liu Yuwen to worship his ancestors, and in front of the ancestor statue, he told Liu Yuwen about the history of the Liu family and the deeds of the ancestors of the past dynasties.
"Be an honest person and study hard, don't let down your ancestors and ancestors."
When Master Liu saw that Liu Yuwen had worshiped his ancestors, he wanted Aunt Jin and Liu Ruochan to come and worship him, which would be more justifiable. After all, it was recorded in the family tree, and he had entered the ancestral hall to kowtow to his ancestors.
Master Liu planned to do so, so he beckoned a confidant to come and give such an instruction.
Outside the ancestral hall, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu San stood with a group of girls. Mrs. Liu San and Mrs. Liu don't deal with each other, and they have to sneer at every opportunity, and Mrs. Liu San will naturally not miss this opportunity.
"Our master will do three, and I'll just do it. Why didn't the eldest lord let his sister-in-law enter the ancestral hall. Even if the sister-in-law has made a lot of mistakes in the housekeeper recently, which has angered the eldest man and the old lady, she should not be ugly for the sister-in-law at this time, in front of all relatives. Mrs. Liu San said to Mrs. Liu with a smile.
Mrs. Liu naturally heard Mrs. Liu's words with bad intentions.
"This is something that the third wife doesn't know." Mrs. Liu smiled at the corner of her mouth, "Originally, I should have gone in, but these days, my body is not very good, so I told the old lady and the eldest master in advance to avoid the rules for me to go in and stand." It's the third wife, it's been a few days since the last time I entered the ancestral hall, and I didn't go in this time, but I regret it. ”
This is to remind Mrs. Liu San that she once knelt in the ancestral hall in February.
The so-called beating people doesn't slap their faces, but when the two of them speak, they both pick each other's sore spots and say.
When Mrs. Liu heard Mrs. Liu say this about her, she naturally refused to stop there.
"I haven't congratulated my sister-in-law yet, there are more people serving in the house, so charming, and there is a little girl out of thin air. There is no sister-in-law who is blessed anymore. Mrs. Liu San said, "That's right." What is the name of the new aunt in the big lady's house? Oh, by the way, it's called Begonia. The name Begonia sounds familiar. ”
When Mrs. Liu San said this, she looked at Mrs. Liu's face. Mrs. Liu tried to calm down on her face, but the corners of her eyes twitched involuntarily.
"I remember, there was also a person named Begonia in the sister-in-law's house, and she was also an aunt, wasn't she?"
Mrs. Liu's face changed.
"Mother......" Mrs. Liu was about to have a seizure when she heard someone behind her shouting timidly.
Mrs. Liu gasped. turned around and saw that it was Liu Ruoyuan who didn't know when she came. Liu Ruojuan didn't know what was wrong, her face was pale and miserable.
"What's the matter, why are you here?" Mrs. Liu asked.
“…… The eldest sister suddenly fell ill, and the sister-in-law took care of the eldest brother and couldn't spare her hands. I looked worried, and came over to tell my mother. Liu Ruojuan said, but glanced at Mrs. Liu San from the corner of her eye.
"If you're sick, just send someone to call the doctor to see you." Mrs. Liu was feeling uncomfortable. It's a little impatient. But in the blink of an eye, he changed his tone again, "Why are you sick, but you are so sick?" I'm going to check ......."
Mrs. Liu led people to Liuda/Grandma's yard. This is also an excuse for her to avoid Mrs. Liu San for the time being.
Master Liu sent the little servant out, and saw that there was only Mrs. Liu San at the door, but Mrs. Liu was missing, so he hurriedly asked. I know that Mrs. Liu went to see the eldest sister. The little guy was happy in his heart, and now he didn't need to find someone to lure Mrs. Liu away, and things were much more convenient. The little girl slipped away and went to Aunt Jin's yard.
A moment of work. Mrs. Liu San saw Aunt Jin and Liu Ruochan, all dressed up in a proper and neat manner.
Seeing Aunt Jin take Liu Ruochan into the ancestral hall, a trace of clarity flashed in Mrs. Liu's eyes, and she glanced in the direction where Mrs. Liu went, and couldn't help but smile again.
After changing the family tree and worshipping the ancestors, everyone came out of the ancestral hall and went to Mrs. Liu to sit for a while.
In order for Liu Yuwen to pass on to the second master of Liu, the third master of Liu originally advocated to be more lively, but the second master Liu said that it was not appropriate to be too public, in addition to the people of the relatives, he only notified a few friends who were very good friends with him on weekdays, including Liu Yi, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and his wife Zhao.
Liu Yi and Zhao both came, and Liu Tong and Liu He, the twins, naturally followed.
Liu Ruoxi specially introduced Liu Tong, Liu He and Liu Yuwen to know each other, because they thought that there were too many people in Mrs. Liu's house, so they went to Mrs. Liu's house to sit.
When Liu Tong and Liu He arrived at Liu Ruoxi, they were not restrained at all. Liu Yuwen is Liu Ruoxi's brother who has just passed away, and both of them are very affectionate to Liu Yuwen.
“…… We are also in Zongxue, and we will be together more in the future......" Liu Tong patted Liu Yuwen on the shoulder and said.
"Brother Wen, don't listen to him." Liu Ruoxi said, glaring at Liu He, "If you dare to seduce Brother Wen to be playful and mess around, I won't give up with you." ”
"It's as if we only know how to play." Liu Tong smiled and said, "Last time our brother made an article, Mr. also praised us. ”
"yes." Liu He immediately nodded, and asked Liu Yuwen again, "Brother Wen, what homework did your husband leave and what topics did the article have, let's refer to it in detail......
"Come less." Liu Ruoxi knew the temperament of these twin brothers, and immediately laughed and scolded, "You two, don't try to coax my brother and ask him to help you do your homework and write articles...... Be careful, I'll tell the fifth aunt to know......"
Liu Tong and Liu He laughed, and they both stepped forward to give Liu Ruoxi a look.
"You think too badly of us, we're not like that."
"Brother Wen," Liu Ruoxi pulled Liu Yuwen to him and told him, "They are used to coaxing people, you are young, don't let them coax." If they bully you, come and tell me. ”
"It's too late to be a brother, how can you bully him." Liu Tong and Liu He both said.
"Brother Liu and Second Brother Liu treat me very well." Liu Yuwen said. In Zongxue, the two brothers knew about Liu Yuwen and took great care of Liu Yuwen.
"Auntie, our ninth brother has come back from the north." Liu Tong and Liu He sat down in front of Liu Ruoxi, a little mysterious.
"You ninth brother?" Liu Ruoxi raised her eyebrows.
"It's the seventh uncle of our clan, and now he is the eldest son of the left squire of the military department, his big name is Liu Cheng, who went to the north to fight a few years ago and came back recently." Liu He told Liu Ruoxi.
The Liu family is a big family, and there are several branches in the capital. The Liu family, who is the left attendant of the military department, is not familiar with the Liu family, and Liu Ruoxi only remembers it in a trance, as if she heard the Zhao family mention it.
Liu Tong and Liu He seemed to have a very good impression of this clan brother who came back from the battlefield, and they admired him very much.
“…… Teach us archery and take us to hunt outside ......the city," Liu Tong said, talking about these experiences, his eyebrows fluttering.
"By the way, he also said that he knows the second aunt and you." Liu Tong said, and said suddenly.
"Oh? How do I not remember when I recognized this person? Liu Ruoxi was surprised.
"That's the case, Auntie, you went out of the city that day and went to Zhuangzi, did you get poisoned on the horse...... Liu He said, "Brother Jiu came back with the little prince of Yongjing Palace." ”
Hearing the twins say this, Liu Ruoxi understood.
It's just that there was only Rong Chenghan on the newspaper that day, and the people who followed Rong Chenghan, although Liu Ruoxi had some impressions, she couldn't tell which one was Liu Tong in the mouth of the twins.
"It was a mess that day, and he didn't come over to speak, I don't know which one." Liu Ruoxi said.
Liu Tong and Liu He described Liu Cheng's appearance, Liu Ruoxi thought about it, and then remembered that it seemed to be the man who rode a yellow horse and looked at the slightly older man.
"Oh, it was him." Liu Ruoxi said. Liu Cheng didn't give her a good impression, compared with the fierce and vicious soldiers brought back by Rong Chenghan, Liu Cheng seemed to be much gentler, but the emphasis on his speech was a little slippery.
"......After a long time in the army, don't watch people fight, you are older than you, so you will learn everything from others. But you have to distinguish between good and bad. After all, Liu Ruoxi still cared about Liu Tong and Liu He, so she admonished.
Saying this, Liu Ruoxi's heart moved again. Liu Cheng mentioned himself, but he just mentioned it casually in his speech, or ......
"Brother Jiu said that he disturbed his aunt that day and wanted to come over to disturb his aunt." Liu He said.
"What's the alarm." Liu Ruoxi said, "Since it is your ninth brother, if you want to come and sit, my father and mother will naturally welcome it." "The friendship between the two families is true.
"Brother Jiu said that he might come over today." Liu Tong said.
"How?" Liu Ruoxi asked.
"Did you invite the little prince of Yongjing Palace?" Liu Tong asked.
"yes." Liu Ruoxi nodded. Rong Chenghan is now a disciple of Liu Er, and he has made great contributions to the matter of succeeding Liu Yuwen. Second Master Liu specially invited Rong Chenghan to come over for dinner today, not only invited Rong Chenghan, but also asked Rong Chenghan to bring his sergeants.
At that time, Rong Chenghan didn't agree immediately, he just said that he would come, and refused to bring those people.
Of course, the second master Liu refused, so he asked why.
Rong Chenghan said that his sergeants were rough and used to it in the army, and they were all rough people, saying that they were afraid of scaring the people and guests of the Liu family.
Rong Chenghan said this, but Second Master Liu still insisted on inviting everyone to come over. In order for everyone to be more comfortable, a banquet was prepared for Rong Chenghan and others, and they were not in the same place with others.
"Brother Jiu is friendly with the little prince, saying that he came with the little prince." Liu He said.
"Oh." Liu Ruoxi sighed, he always felt that Rong Chenghan said that he refused to bring people, but in fact, he just wanted to capture and indulge. You see, once he says it, there will be no shortage of people who will bring him rice. (To be continued......)
