The old lady of Xue Mansion was lying on the rocking chair, and she couldn't help but think of the conversation with Tang Qing'er when she went to Tang's house to ask for marriage, this girl was very satisfied in all aspects except for the poor conditions at home, especially when she got the birthday eight characters and went up the mountain to let Master Qingyuan calculate, the more she listened, the more satisfied she became.

A match made in heaven, the life of Wangfu, and the full house of children and grandchildren, what else is more satisfying to her.

So she asked Chunxin, the maid who was serving her next to her, to call the eldest young master over, and after a while, Chunxin said: "The young master took Sanshun out of the city, and he hasn't come back yet." ”

Old Mrs. Xue reluctantly said to Ah Chun, who was serving her, "This kid has gone to Tangjia Village to see his sweetheart again." ”

Ah Chun massaged the old lady's arm and said: "The old slave has been in a very good mood recently, and his face is not so serious, even if the subordinates make mistakes, their attitude has become gentle, the old lady should rest assured now!" The young master knows that it hurts,"

Old Lady Xue stared at a pot of begonia flowers in the house, and said softly: "Xun'er has finally come to the end of his hardship." ”

Ah Chun echoed: "Yes, the young master has had a really hard time all these years. ”

Mrs. Xue asked inadvertently: "After the doctor in Xiyuan saw it, he said that the one in the belly was a male or female baby." ”

Speaking of this, Ah Chun Zhengse said: "Yesterday, the doctor came to see, according to the pulse, it is a male baby," that doctor is a famous doctor in the town, and he can change whether a pregnant woman is male or female just by relying on the pulse.

"Oh, that's right, then you can open the warehouse from tomorrow and send her more supplements."

Ah Chun has served the old lady for more than 30 years, and his body couldn't help but chill when he heard this, but he still said in a steady voice: "I know the way." ”

Old Lady Xue continued to speak, but this was said very lightly, only for Ah Chun to hear clearly: "My grandson only needs one," Ah Chun's hand on the old lady's arm couldn't help but stiffen.

Xue Qianxun returned home in the evening, and heard that his grandmother was looking for him, he went to his grandmother's room without even changing his clothes, and when he entered the house after letting Chunxin say goodbye, he saw his grandmother leaning on the side of the bed waiting for him, he walked over and sat on the chair next to him and said, "Grandma is looking for me?" ”

Mrs. Xue didn't answer and asked, "Have you eaten dinner?" ”

"I'll come back after eating." Xue Qianxun replied with a rare smile on his face.

"It's time to see your little daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Xue took her grandson's hand and said.

"Well, this is the first time I've seen her since I got married, and dinner was also eaten at her house."

"Oh! I think your little daughter-in-law is very good, worthy of you, saying that her family is not like the kind of family that will borrow people's light, although I have not seen your two brothers-in-law, but they were admitted to the children's birth at a young age, which is very remarkable, and your father-in-law has adopted a pair of children, which shows that people are very kind-hearted. "Mrs. Xue is not afraid that her future granddaughter-in-law's family will be poor, she is afraid that she will marry the kind of snobbish family who is rich and take advantage, and her grandson's vision will not be any worse.

"Well, that family is very gentle." He enjoyed spending time with them and loved the atmosphere of their home.

"By the way, I heard that Zishu is back, did he come back by himself or with his father." She felt that the world was not good now, especially from the intermittent feeling from the second child's letter.

"Yes, I heard him say that Shibo resigned and returned to his hometown, except for the eldest brother who was still an official in Beijing in addition to Zishu, and the second brother who was sent to Jiangnan, the whole family moved back." He also heard from Zishu's slightly bitter words, which is that people are arrogant when they are in power, and they are majestic when they are frustrated.

"Yes, although his father resigned and returned to his hometown, people who don't know about things may be high and low, and the world is like this." Mrs. Xue has lived for so many years, and after seeing the normalcy of the world, she instructed: "Don't be blinded by the things in front of you for a while, you have been friends with Zishu since childhood, and at this time, you must encourage him by his side." ”

Xue Qianxun closed his eyes when he saw his grandmother talking, he gently put his grandmother's hand in the quilt, and said to Mama Chun who was guarding the side, "Grandma is asleep," said lightly.

Xue Qianxun returned to the study, saw Sanshun waiting for him on the side, waved him into the house, and asked him, "When Zishu went home today, did anything happen?" ”

Sanshun scratched his head and said: "The little one doesn't know if Lu Dao is a big deal, when I sent Young Master Zishu back to the house, a lot of people came to his house, and I didn't know what Lu Dao said noisily, Young Master Zishu looked serious, I didn't want to stay there for a long time, so I drove back to Tang's house in the carriage,"

Xue Qianxun walked to the desk and took out an account, nodded and said to Sanshun: "Zhilu Dao, you go and rest!" After reading the accounts for a while, he thought of the conversation with Tang Qing'er in the afternoon, he told Tang Qing'er about Zhao Zishu's family, and his purpose was to make Tang Qing'er pay attention to what he did or spoke when he met Zishu.

Unexpectedly, she actually replied to him: "He is your friend and not my friend, if you don't bring him here, there will be no trouble as you said." He seemed to laugh at his own answer.

took out the document signed with Tang Qing'er at the Tang family in the morning from his arms, and couldn't help laughing, how can these five sons and three daughters have to be born for ten years, and when the time comes, will she still be able to leave? Just thinking about the days of living together after marrying her, his lower abdomen involuntarily swelled and ached, and today he accidentally touched her breasts, which was too small, and I don't know if Lu Dao can grow up in the past two years.

Tang Qing'er touched her chest before going to bed, it was indeed a little small, how to make up for her developing age? What's even more hateful is that Xue Qianxun actually said this in front of her, which made her embarrassed.

The next day, as soon as Xue Qianxun got up and got dressed, he heard Sanshun come in and say, "Young Master, Young Master Zishu has come to the mansion to find you." ”

Xue Qianxun's hand buttoning his clothes couldn't help but stiffen, how could Zishu come to him so early, it would never happen like this, and said to Sanshun: "Bring him into my room." ”

"It's the young master." Sanshun nodded and walked out.

Zishu was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, and his face was like earth, he walked in tiredly, and said dejectedly: "Don't mention it, when I went home yesterday, I was surrounded by those distant relatives at home and asked for a night, so that I didn't close my eyes for a while, and they are still staying at my house?" My mother took advantage of their inattention and asked me to sneak out, I have nowhere to go, I can only hide from you to take a breath. ”

Xue Qianxun picked up the face towel and wiped his face, and said to Sanshun: "I'm going to re-fetch the basin of water, I'm looking for a piece of clothes that I haven't worn and bring it over,"

Sanshun quickly did as the young master ordered, and when Zhao Zishu cleaned up, he said with the same hippie smile as before: "It's finally more comfortable, I didn't take a bath last night, and the clothes on my body are still yesterday, so it's really uncomfortable to wear." ”

Xue Qianxun smiled helplessly, and instructed Sanshun: "You tell the old lady in a while that I won't go to her for dinner in the morning, you go to the kitchen and let people put the food to me, and then you take Sixi to the kitchen to eat!" You don't need to wait here. ”

Sanshun was busy this morning, and finally heard the young master let him rest for a while, and said loudly with a happy face: "Yes, young master." When he turned around and went out, he saw that Sixi was still not moving, so he dragged him, and Sixi saw his young master nodding, and then he went out with Sanshun.

Zhao Zishu suddenly sat on the chair and said decadently: "You said that in this world, when you stand tall and look far away, someone has come to fool you, on the contrary, you are in a deep trough, but no one cares about you, you will only worry about whether you will be involved, even the daughter-in-law who has been married." ”

Xue Qianxun sat aside and said lightly: "Everyone in the world is like this, you don't need to care, you can always meet someone who knows you, understands you, and pities you,"

Zhao Zishu said happily: "You are showing me that you have met the other half who knows you and understands you, that is, your little daughter-in-law,"

"Well, it's just that I know her, understand her, and pity her, what about her? She was unwilling to design her, and put on a posture that it was best to stay away from her. As long as Tang Qing'er is mentioned, Xue Qianxun always looks very gentle, with a smile on the corners of his eyebrows, eyes and mouth, and the whole person is a little more friendly.

At this time, someone knocked on the door and whispered, "Young master, the food is ready, can you bring it in now?" ”

"Well, come in!" As he spoke, he put breakfast on the table in the middle of Xue Qianxun's study, and did not make any sound when he came in and out.

Zhao Zishu got up from the chair, sat down on the dining table, looked at the breakfast, and swallowed unconsciously, he hadn't eaten since last night to morning, he had long been hungry, and he was not polite to Xue Qianxun, so he directly picked up the chopsticks, put a crystal glue in his mouth, swallowed it and said: "This crystal glue is better than my cook's cooking, well, it's delicious." ”

Xue Qianxun slowly picked up the chopsticks, lightly pinched a purple potato and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, and did not answer Zhao Zishu's words, he ate at home, and was used to eating without saying a word.

Zhao Zishu took another sip of barley porridge, and finally felt a warm current flowing in his abdomen, so he slowly began to eat and stopped squeaking.

After breakfast, Xue Qianxun took Zhao Zishu to greet the old lady and his father, leaving him to accompany his father and mother to talk, while he went to the study to deal with some things.

In less than an hour, Zhao Zishu came to look for him and said to him, "Let's go to Tangjia Village!" Your little daughter-in-law is very interesting, let's go talk to her! ”

"No," Xue Qianxun was settling accounts with a pen, and refused Zhao Zishu's request without raising his head.

"For what? Yesterday she promised me that I could go and play with her whenever I wanted. Zhao Zishu protested, patted Xue Qianxun's desk and said.

"There's nothing to do, I'm not sure, I'm not allowed." When he came out yesterday, Tang Qing'er was forced by the Li family to go out to see him off, and she said with a stinky face: "It's good for you to come once every three days, don't come too often, if you come too often, I don't know what excessive things Lu Dao will do." "Now that I think about it, I still feel that I have nowhere to go.

"Then you stay at home, I'll go to her by myself, I'm bored staying here, go and play with her." Zhao Zishu didn't notice Xue Qianxun's darkening face at all, and he was still talking about how interesting it was to talk to Tang Qing'er.

Xue Qianxun finally looked up from the ledger, his face like stagnant water, and said flatly: "I think you better go home and stay!" You are in a good position to go home and deal with your relatives and save your aunt from them. ”

"Don't, don't, I was wrong, I was wrong, you are not allowed to bomb me away," Zhao Zishu looked at Xue Qianxun pitifully, and almost hugged his thigh and pleaded.

"Then it's up to you to perform!" After Xue Qianxun said this, he buried his head in the account book again.
