Chapter 1 O 1 Affection is not left
The gossip outside was ugly, and they knew it in their hearts, but they really didn't expect Deng Changwen to come to visit. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info When I heard that Lord Deng came to visit, the few people who were still laughing and talking were already sneering at this time. Staring at the tea on the table, Xiao Chuheng smiled after a while.
"It's actually a visit, what do you say about this Lord Deng's mansion this time?"
"Whatever happens, it must not come for the sake of the marriage contract." Leaning back, Xiao Huan stepped forward with sharp eyes and let his young master lean on himself, Chu Rui said: "Third brother, don't forget, this Lord Deng has been sending things to our house at every turn during this time, and we have all received these things, but the reply that should be given is that it has not collapsed a word." Seeing others receiving gifts but not returning, third brother, if it were you, would you be in a hurry or not? ”
After saying that, he smiled again, and Chu Rui continued: "Besides, third brother, don't forget, this Lord Deng kept saying that there was a misunderstanding about the resignation of his relatives. If there is a misunderstanding, it must be explained, right? But we don't give it a chance, and those gossips outside are getting more and more biased and intensifying. Rao is how much Lord Deng can suppress his sex, I'm afraid he can't wait, and he doesn't come to the door in person to make it clear, and his heart is determined. ”
"Misunderstanding, where is the misunderstanding in black and white?"
This misunderstanding made Xiao Chujie stiffen his face, and said in a suppressed voice, Chu Rui directly moved his eyes when the words fell, and continued: "If the Xiao family is gradually defeated, it will be black and white, but now that the Xiao family has returned, who knows if there will be a misunderstanding here." ”
"Even if there is a misunderstanding, this year's time, the misunderstanding, is deep enough." The folding fan has been unfurled, and Chu Heng smiled back.
The three young masters in the inner hall kept laughing and laughing, and the eldest lady who had the most ideas sat on the pestle and sipped tea there without saying a word. Although it is a good thing for the young lady to sit in the room and talk and laugh so harmoniously, no matter how good he is, he should always give him a good word to be a little girl, after all, there is a four-rank Beijing official waiting outside.
The young lady obviously didn't plan to put Deng Changwen in his heart, but the little guy who was talking was in a hurry, and he looked left and right at the moment, and made sure that the young master didn't plan to give permission, so the little guy had to ask out loud.
"Miss, young master, Lord Deng outside, do you see it or not?"
You should always give an accurate decision when you see or not, and he can go out and talk back.
This voice was very soft, as if it were any louder, and it might cause a dull disaster. This is the master's business, of course he has to ask before he acts as a little servant, this is just the end of the word, I saw the third young master and the fourth young master raised their heads at the same time, one smiled, the other raised his eyebrows, and the two said in unison.
"See, the official came in person, how dare we, the ordinary people, not see it."
"Since the young master wants to see him, the little one will go out now."
With the permission of the young master, the little maid was busy with the cat body retreating, during which Xiao Chujie did not forget to instruct: "Please enter the hall and wait, and make another pot of tea by the way." ”
As soon as the words of this advice fell, he was despised by the two younger brothers, and seeing the eldest brother touching his nose with a weak heart, Chu Rui rolled his eyes and said, "Big brother, you really treat him as a guest, and you still make tea." ”
"Anyway, it's an official after all." The people don't fight with the officials, this is an ancient precept, although it was a little embarrassing, but Xiao Chujie still responded. This response was disliked, but no one said anything. This matter has been in trouble for so long, and it is time to find an opportunity to solve it.
didn't respond to their words, just sat for a while and got up suddenly. As soon as his body moved, the three of them looked directly over. Looking at the eldest sister who was moving up, Chu Heng asked, "Eldest sister, what are you doing when you get up?" ”
"If there are guests coming, you should go out to greet them, it is difficult to ask the guests to wait outside, and the Xiao family can't do this kind of lazy thing."
After speaking, he was about to move out, but he had just moved a few steps, and Xiao Churui was busy getting up to block it. Stretching out his hand to block the way of the eldest sister, Chu Rui turned his eyes and said: "People are divided into three, five, nine and so on, there are guests and guests, Rao is who is here today, and he can also invite the eldest lady of our Xiao family to go out to greet him." ”
"So what do you mean?"
"Today, the eldest sister doesn't have to condescend to worry about it, and the fourth and third brothers will do it for you, how about it?" The words fell and smiled, and the eyes were already glimpsed. As soon as I saw it, I knew that I was thinking about things again. Deng Changwen's matter, several brothers have long been dissatisfied in their hearts, and now the matter has been delayed for a long time, that is, Deng Changwen wants to spend it with them, and they don't have time to waste it with him.
It's long overdue, since the two brothers want to do it themselves, how can Xiao Chushu refuse. smiled at the moment, and then smiled, and said with a smile: "Since you want to replace it, you can replace it, but just now your eldest brother has a sentence that is sincere." No matter what the other party says, he is also an official, don't be too sexual, and carefully ask someone to wear small shoes afterwards. ”
"Eldest sister, don't worry, I do things with the third brother, and the eldest sister can't believe it. It's that there are a lot of people in Kyoto who want to wear small shoes for us, but now, some people wear them? ”
What a bad temperament, if you don't know how to protect yourself, I'm afraid you won't know how many times you will lose your life. The human heart is bad, but the younger brother's brain is good, and he doesn't say much at the moment, but nods his head in agreement.
Chu Heng Chu Rui wanted to go out to meet guests, but Chu Jie, who was left behind, looked left and right before asking: "The third brother and the fourth brother went out to meet guests, what about me?" ”
"The fourth brother and I will settle the outside for the eldest sister, and as for the eldest brother, of course there is something wrong."
"Things? What's the matter? As soon as he inquired, he saw Chu Heng come forward and whispered a few words in his ear, and when these words fell on Chu Jie's face, he was already twitching. Stiffened slightly, then seemed to be thinking about it, and finally stared at Chu Heng, Chu Jie said.
"Is this possible?"
"It's feasible, after all, instead of letting the eldest sister come in person, it is better for the eldest brother to take care of the Xiao family's face."
The three bastards muttered something in front of themselves again, Xiao Chuxuan didn't hear it clearly, and this time it was rare to ask more. just glanced at it, then sighed loudly, and directly threw this matter on the three of them.
They wanted to come in person about Deng Changwen, and Xiao Chusu didn't rob them, but it was just about the eldest sister, and it was always inappropriate to let the eldest sister stay at home, so he immediately looked at Xiao Chushu and sighed, Chu Rui said.
"Eldest sister, leave this matter to the three of us, eldest sister can rest assured. As for the eldest sister, don't stay at home, so as not to get annoyed. Today, Hanwha originally invited the fourth brother to Taibaiju, but looking at the current matter, it seems that the fourth brother of Taibaiju is unable to go. If the eldest sister feels that there is nothing to do, how about going to the appointment for the fourth brother? ”
Hanwha invited him, but he was good enough to send the errand to himself. Although Xiao Chusu does not pay attention to the so-called reputation and fame like ordinary girls, she is really not interested in such things as going to her brother's appointment to eat white food. At that moment, he raised his hand and flicked it directly at Chu Rui's forehead, Xiao Chu said.
"I went to the appointment for you, I didn't know that I thought that our Xiao family was about to lose, and even a meal had to be calculated. This Han Gongzi's invitation, you should put it aside next time, as for your parent sister and me, you can rest assured, I am not too idle to find something. What do you want to make a fuss, I don't care about it today, I think I'm in the way, I'll go to the branch to take a look, anyway, there are too many things there to worry about. ”
They thought she was in the way, and it was a big deal that she wouldn't leave the house to be an eyesore, so she immediately shrugged her shoulders and agreed, and then glanced at them one by one, and then Xiao Chusu ordered Firefly to stay and wait, and then led Xiangzhu out of the house.
The eldest sister left, and this matter naturally fell on their heads, and they were concerned about each other, and with a heavy face, Chu Heng Chu Rui walked towards the outer hall. As for Chu Jie, he entered the back room.
It was already a report, but the left and right waited but did not see anyone from the Xiao family, and Deng Changwen was also in a hurry.
When he quit his family, now he also regrets it, and he wants to rebuild the old friendship with a hundred thoughts, so he has spent a lot of thought on this matter, and even the little trick that only he knew back then that Xiao Chusu was moved by was also used. Who would have thought that it would take less than a year of hard work, but Xiao Chusu seemed to be a different person, not only could not move her heart with those careful thoughts back then, but even the frequent attentive look afterwards was indifferent.
Xiao Chu was indifferent to the sect, and Deng Changwen had to be anxious.
The reason why he quit his relatives at the beginning was because Xiao Chu lost his talent for business, and the Xiao family had several profligate brothers. The defeat of the Xiao family will not take time, even if they marry Xiao Chusu, they will not see any benefit to the Deng family. Therefore, after some thought, they did the renunciation and broke the covenant first.
Who knew that he had only been away from Beijing for a year, and when he came back, it was already upside down, and the Xiao family had to repeat the year, and this Xiao Chusu and others actually knew such a character.
When he saw it at a glance, Deng Changwen's heart was shocked, and at that moment he had already made up his mind in his heart, no matter what, he must repair the old good, and he must pick up the paper of the year again.
Xiao Chushu is a person, Deng Changwen understands, after all, this is the most obedient woman who has been married since he was a child, how can he not know the thoughts in her heart. originally thought that as long as he was willing, he would not be able to regain his heart, but who knew that Xiao Chuxuan was now so that he couldn't see through it. The methods used in the past are useless, and they have added a lot of obscenity trouble to themselves.
The Xiao family obviously didn't take the rumors and foul words in the market to heart, but he couldn't stand it anymore. couldn't bear those filthy words, Deng Changwen made up his mind to prepare to come to the door, he didn't believe it, with years of affection and Xiao Chusu's deep love for himself, if he came to the door, Xiao Chusu could still be willing to give up that love.
It turned out to be clear, and just waiting for Xiao Chusu to come, he told all the explanations he had in his heart, and begged her to nod and rebuild. Who knew that after waiting in the outer hall for a long time, what he was waiting for was not Xiao Chusu, who he was looking forward to, but the two young masters of the Xiao family.
Xiao Chuheng and Xiao Churui are definitely troublesome for Deng Changwen, after all, he has always felt that Xiao Chushu is unwilling to forgive himself, and nine times out of ten it is related to these two people. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, and when he saw the two brothers walking out, Deng Changwen immediately got up and said.
"Third brother and fourth brother, how are you doing lately, what about your sister?"
The words were asked, but his focus was on Xiao Chusu, and when he finished speaking, he subconsciously looked behind the two of them, and when he saw that there was no one behind him, Deng Changwen immediately asked: "Why don't you see Sister Sorrow, isn't Sister Sorrow not in the house now?" ”
"Lord Deng is asking the eldest sister." Lu smiled, and Chu Heng said, "The eldest sister is still in the mansion, but it was just a coincidence." ”
"What's wrong?"
"Just now, the eldest sister went out for something."
"So, it's unfortunate that it's tight." He specially counted the time before he came, who knew that it was still wrong, and when he showed remorse, Deng Changwen said: "It was a mistake, I knew that I would visit in advance, so as not to miss the time." ”
didn't see Xiao Chushu, obviously Deng Changwen regretted it, but his words could be exchanged for Chu Rui's suspicion. Standing there with a hung face, Chu Rui responded: "It's that Lord Deng came to the door early, and I still have to come at the wrong time." ”
"What does the fourth brother mean by this?" I don't understand the inquiry.
"What do you mean, of course, it's because the eldest sister is in a hurry to avoid people." If anyone does not want to see him, it is not appropriate to come at any time. Deng Changwen is also a person with a heart, Chu Rui's words are clear, and there was a little urgency on his face at the moment, Deng Changwen said: "Is it a sister who doesn't want to see me?" Third brother and fourth brother, I know that it is useless to talk about this at this time, but you have to believe me, there was really a misunderstanding of the paper that was withdrawn back then. ”
"Misunderstanding, although my Xiao family has no virtue and no talent, no one can gain fame, but it is not a master who does not know one or two big characters, the black and white words are placed there, where did the misunderstanding come from." Chu Heng asked, and Deng Changwen hurriedly answered.
"In the events of that year, although I wrote a letter of resignation, there was an implicit in this matter."
But there is an implicit, and the more Lord Deng says this, the more unclear it becomes. The white paper and black characters are placed there, and the words are also the words of Lord Deng. Isn't it so implicit, is it possible that Lord Deng still wants to say that the letter of resignation was driven by someone else with a knife, forcing Lord Deng to write it by hand. "It's the fact on the board, Deng Changwen still wants to quibble, which really makes people feel disgusted.
At present, Deng Changwen is not doing more useless words, but said: "The letter was written by my own hands, but I also had a last resort, when I got the official to leave Beijing and take office, because I don't know when I can return to Beijing, and my sister is categorically reluctant to you, in order not to miss my sister, I wrote the heartless letter of resignation. I thought that it would be impossible to go to Beijing to be an official in this life, but I never thought that God would favor me and get this opportunity. Now that I have returned to Beijing, my sister is waiting for me to wait, how can I make a mistake in this good marriage. ”
Deng Changwen's words, every word contains love in the heart, if it is not for the Xiao family not to believe it, even these words are enough to soften people's hearts. The words in front were enough for Chu Rui to roll his eyes in private, who would have thought that the words in the back could not reach the ears of the four young people of the Xiao family, after listening to Deng Changwen's last affectionate words, Xiao Churui immediately raised his hand and said.
"Wait, who's waiting?"
"My sister hasn't married yet, isn't she waiting for me?"
Xiao Chusu is now forty-four in his twenties, although he is not a half-old, but it is rare that he has not married at this age. Xiao Chu was stunned to treat Deng Changwen with affection, but a year later, he was still in the boudoir, and he couldn't complain that Deng Changwen had such ridiculous speculations.
It is really ridiculous to make a guess, so the Xiao family sneered, laughed, his eyes were already disdainful, and Xiao Churui no longer squinted at him, but looked at him with straight eyes, and the words were clear.
"Waiting for you? Oh, Lord Deng actually said that the eldest sister is waiting for you because she is still unmarried. Chu Rui dared to ask, where did Master Deng get this confidence? Could it be that Lord Deng feels that now that he is a fourth-grade Beijing official, he really thinks he is a treasure? ”
The words were intertwined, and anger had already flashed in his eyes, and he no longer moved his mind with his usual eyes, Xiao Churui stared at Deng Changwen's eyes like that, biting word by word.
Deng Changwen's fallacy was not only annoyed by Chu Rui, but also by Chu Heng. I still wanted to guard everyone's style for a while, and politely invited this unsightly person out. But now it seems that people are not only an eyesore, but even regard themselves as treasures that everyone is looking forward to.
Treasure, there is a treasure for the Xiao family, but this thing is definitely not the hateful person in front of him. Immediately, the person also pressed the color, and it was rare that the pair of sparkling and charming eyes were no longer frivolous and smiling, and they were staring, Chu Heng said.
"Although I don't know where Lord Deng's eldest sister is waiting for this idiot came from, Chu Heng still advises the adult, how important is the reputation of the daughter's family, this kind of insulting reputation, it is better not to say anything about it in the future. Although my Xiao family is not an official family, the reputation of the eldest sister must not be tarnished by others. The adult is now a fourth-grade official, but my Xiao family sister is the Xiao family's hand, how precious, it is definitely not what others can ask for for marriage, don't retreat with a piece of paper, you can come and go. ”
The words have been bitten word by word, and the people have made it clear that the pro-contract has been withdrawn, don't say that it is just a dignified four products, even if it is a big official, no matter how expensive the identity, the Xiao family still does not pay attention to it.
When the words fell, Deng Changwen's face also turned pale, just when Deng Changwen's face was embarrassed and he didn't know how to respond, Xiao Chuheng had already swept his eyes and ordered Xiao Shou to present the things prepared in advance.
Four jade ruyi, two beauty screens, all the things sent by Deng Changwen during this period of time, the Xiao family returned them all double. His Xiao family has money and silver, and he can't look down on these inconspicuous objects in the Deng Mansion.
After all those things were enshrined in front of Deng Changwen, Xiao Fu also walked out of the inner hall, holding an object in his hand and handing it to Chu Heng. took the object, did not open it but glanced at it, and then sent the thing to Deng Changwen with his own hands, Chu Heng said.
"When I quit my family, it was the Deng Mansion that withdrew from the Xiao family's contract. Now it is just right, since Lord Deng has come to the Xiao family in person, then please ask Lord Deng to take it, this is the letter of the Xiao family's resignation. (To be continued.) )
