"It's settled."

"Well, what you said to me, I repeat what Brother Xiang said, and now everything depends on what he thinks." Li sighed as he undressed.

"You think about everything a lot, when we used to live a hard life, it would be good to have enough to eat, where can you think of so much."

"Don't you know that I'm the kind of person who hates the poor and loves the rich? It's just that Brother Bin thinks more, he will be an official in the future," Li said with a frown.

Tang Tiezhu shook his head and asked, "If one of Yang'er and Liang'er wants to marry a maid from a big family, are you willing?" ”

Li Shi thought about it: "If you are as capable as a bamboo, what is this?" Such a daughter-in-law is definitely a good hand, that is, they will have a hard time in the future, and it is good for the daughter-in-law to have a craft. ”

"Isn't this enough, Brother Xiang wants to marry Zhu'er, why do you want to obstruct it?"

"After all, it's not the flesh that fell from my body, how dare I make any opinions," Li glared at the master, angry that he didn't understand him.

Tang Tiezhu got up and put his arm around her waist and said, "My mother-in-law has always had a good heart. ”

Li snorted: "I will only pick up good words." ”

Tang Tiezhu said with a sullen smile: "Think about what kind of family the Xue family is, and what kind of family is our family, you and I both know that our two families are not right, but Xun'er will marry our Qing'er, our Qing'er said that it is a small family jasper, and if it is unpleasant, it is a peasant girl, but Xun'er is willing, what can the in-laws say, how can the arms be twisted over the thighs, now you see how well Qing'er and Xun'er are doing well,"

Li sighed: "I know all this, can I not think of what you said?" But Brother Fan Xiang is my son, I can let him marry Zhu'er, I'm just afraid of ......"

"You think a lot, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law are not people who don't understand things, maybe they see more thoroughly than us and think clearly?"

"Alas! Maybe I'm really thinking too much! ”

Tang Tiezhu said: "It's okay, it's good to figure it out, our brother Xiang can't marry a useless girl, and the farmer's mud baby should marry a capable girl, this is what is going by." ”

"Yes." Li nodded and said no more.

Tang Tiezhu said: "Now that you have figured it out, let's rest!" After finishing speaking, he hugged Li and fell into his arms.

Xue Mansion, Xue Qianxun went to the study to check the accounts, only Zhu'er and Lu'er were two maids in the house to accompany Tang Qing'er, she said: "Lu'er, you go to the kitchen to see if there is any mung bean cake." ”

"Yes." Lu Erfu stepped back.

Tang Qing'er said: "Zhu'er? ”

"The slave is here, what does the lady command?" Bamboo blessing body.

"I want to talk to you about Brother Xiang, in fact, if you marry Brother Xiang, I am very optimistic," Tang Qinger said.

Zhu'er said in a panic: "Madam, the slave and maid don't dare to have this kind of thought, don't drive the slave away." As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed to Tang Qing'er.

Tang Qing'er hurriedly stood up, lowered her waist slightly, and said, "I didn't say anything?" Don't be afraid, where did I say I would dare you to leave. ”

Zhu'er said with red eyes: "Madam, it's not good to be a slave and a maid, and you have a mind that you shouldn't have, so that you and the old lady have a gap because of the slave and maid." ”

"Alas! Let me tell you the truth, I deliberately brought you back to the house, if after a while, Brother Xiang still can't forget his love for you, I will definitely help you and Brother Xiang to tie the knot. Tang Qing'er said slowly.

Zhu'er said in disbelief: "Madam, what are you talking about! ”

"Isn't what I'm saying clear?" Tang Qing'er smiled lightly, yesterday she somehow looked like an old lady in the door of the mansion, she actually had this old idea of the house, and immediately felt that this idea was not right afterwards, Zhu'er served her for a year, what is her nature, can she not know? Instead of finding an unfamiliar woman for Brother Xiang, it is better to kill the acquaintance directly, not to mention that the two of them still look at each other, but she is a little worried, Brother Xiang is a little stunned and likes Zhu'er, if he wants to understand it, he will no longer take care of Zhu'er, which makes Zhu'er how to deal with herself in the future, and she has a very real heart, in case she can't think about it, how can she fix it?

"Madame......"

Tang Qing'er said again: "I am doing this for your good, if Brother Xiang really marries you, he will tell my uncle and aunt about this matter, this is good for you, the reputation of your daughter's family is the most important, especially if you are still on an errand in the house, if you don't act a little, you will be beaten in public." These things are the methods that she can think of when she is about to return home at her mother's house.

Zhu'er didn't expect Mrs. to think about her so much, so she knelt down excitedly and said, "Madame......"

Tang Qing'er sighed and said: "Zhu'er, can you not kneel down without moving, my body is inconvenient now, and it is really a bit difficult to help you up." ”

Zhu'er stood up with tears in her eyes and said, "It's all the slaves' bad, let Mrs. worry about me." ”

Tang Qing'er said: "Maybe we will be sisters-in-law and sister-in-law in the future, how can you kneel down to me at every turn,"

"As long as the slave maid is in the house for a day, she is the lady's personal maid, and everything should be done according to the rules." Bamboo cut the railway.

"Come and sit with me for a while, and I'll talk to you about Brother Xiang." Tang Qing'er pulled Zhu'er and sat at the table next to him.

Speaking of Brother Xiang, Zhu'er's cheeks flushed, and she said coyly: "Madame......"

Tang Qing'er said: "Since two years ago, Brother Xiang wanted to learn carpenter, so he moved to the town to live with my father's mother, and until today he helps my father work in my father's shop. ”

Zhu'er lowered her head and whispered, "I can see that he is an honest person." ”

Tang Qing'er said with a smile: "You are very right, although Brother Xiang is not as good as the eldest cousin, the third cousin is literate, but he is honest and not afraid of hard work." ”

Zhu'er not only blushed this time, but also flushed the roots of her ears, and she didn't dare to look up at Madame, so she could only lower her head and stir the silk handkerchief.

Tang Qing'er said again: "If you really want to marry Brother Xiang, you must be prepared to endure hardships, and you can't follow him to live in the house like now." ”

At this time, Zhu'er raised her head sharply and said: "The slave is not afraid of hard work, the slave and the maid want to find a sincere person, be good to the slave and maid for a lifetime, live a peaceful and stable life with him, and give him a baby, even if it is bitter and tired, the slave and maid are willing." ”

Tang Qing'er picked up the silk handkerchief and covered the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "It turns out that Zhu'er is so eager to get married." ”

"Madame, you are making fun of the slave again." Zhu'er's face was as red as a glow, and she lowered her head and said.

Tang Qing'er said: "You can think so, in fact, I am happy in my heart, you can rest assured, live with Brother Xiang, even if you have a bite of food, he can let you eat first,"

"Yes." Zhu'er nodded shyly again.

At this time, Lu'er came in with mung bean cake, and saw Sister Zhu'er sitting and talking to Mrs., pouting and saying, "Mrs. and Sister Zhu'er have something to say behind the slave's back." He looked pitiful, but his mouth was full of vinegar.

Tang Qing'er quipped: "Zhu'er, don't you smell it, it's such a big vinegar smell, could it be that the vinegar jar in our house has fallen." ”

Zhu'er followed Madame's words and said, "What Madame said is that the slave maid also smelled it." ”

Lu'er stomped her feet and said, "Madam, you partnered with Sister Zhu'er to bully me. ”

Tang Qing'er stood up and walked towards her, picked up a piece of mung bean cake she was holding and put it in her mouth, and said straightly: "It's so sweet,"

It was a little difficult to swallow the mung bean cake if you ate too much, and Lu'er hurriedly said: "Madam, if you are hungry, sit and eat, and the slave will pour you tea, so that you will choke for a while." ”

"Eun." As he spoke, he walked over to the table and sat down, and began to concentrate on eating snacks.

Lu'er and Zhu'er stood on either side of Qing'er, and Lu'er whispered, "Sister Zhu'er, what did you say to Mrs. just now?" ”

Zhu'er blushed and said, "It's okay." ”

"What can't you tell me, aren't we good sisters?" Lu'er pouted.

Tang Qing'er's ears were extremely sharp, and she took a sip of tea and smoothed the pastry in her mouth, and said, "The time has not yet come, and you will naturally know when the time comes." ”

"Madame......" Zhu'er stopped with a blushing face.

"Madame......" Lu'er wanted to know what was hidden from her.

Tang Qing'er ate two pieces in a row, patted her stomach and said, "It's not too early, you can wait for me to wash!" Now that she is pregnant, she is afraid of accidentally slipping and falling in the bath, so the bathing matter is served by Zhu'er and Lu'er, and she is not as embarrassed as she was at the beginning, and sits in the wooden basin with a blushing face and refuses to get up.

"Yes." The two said in unison, but Lu'er opened her mouth and said to Zhu'er silently: "See if you talk at night." ”

Zhu'er pretended to turn her head away, but she didn't see the shape of Lu'er's mouth.

When Tang Qing'er finished taking a bath and was about to go to bed, Xue Qianxun came back from the study, saw her lying on the bed and picked up a book to read, and said lightly: "Why did you lie down so early." ”

"When I'm tired, I go to bed early." Tang Qing'er put down his hand and wanted to get up to help him undress, but he reached out and pressed it on the bed and said, "You lie down, I'll come by myself." ”

Tang Qing'er thought it would be better like this, to be honest, she really didn't want to get up from the bed, so she nodded and said, "Okay." ”

"Seeing that you are in such a good mood, what happens to make you happy," On the way back from Yue's house today, she was still a little sullen, but now she was smiling.

Tang Qing'er said: "Because of Brother Xiang and Zhu'er's matter, I thought of the two of us getting married, why did my mother-in-law and father-in-law promise you to marry me, a peasant girl, and why didn't my mother agree to Brother Xiang marrying Zhu'er?" You know, we're a better match than they are. ”

Xue Qianxun took off his clothes and said, "There must be a cause and an effect, why think so much." ”

Tang Qing'er said silently in her heart: "If it is said that our marriage is the result, then what is the cause between you and me?" ”

Xue Qianxun lifted the quilt and lay on the bed and said, "Sleep!" Your head knows every day that you think about so many useless things. ”

Tang Qing'er pushed and said, "Tell me, what is the cause between us?" ”

In order to seal Tang Qing'er's chattering mouth, Xue Qianxun put his arms around her and lay down, then put down the bed tent and said, "I'm tired for a day, let's settle down early!" ”

"But the oil lamp ......"

As soon as Xue Qianxun heard this, he lifted the quilt, walked to the table to extinguish the oil lamp, smeared it back to the bed, and hugged Tang Qing'er to sleep.

Tang Qing'er thought to herself: Is there something he is hiding from himself? As for sleeping in your arms in such a hurry? I have to figure things out, thinking like this, my eyes sank unconsciously, and I fell asleep with my eyes closed and my arms around Xue Qianxun's waist.

In the dark, listening to Qing'er's even breathing, Xue Qianxun opened his eyes and said, "If you know the whole story, can you be afraid of me!" After speaking, he hugged Tang Qing'er tightly, for fear that she would disappear.
