Xia family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
In Taigu Town, it can be regarded as a family with a head and a face.
The glory of the Xia family today starts from the ancestor of the Xia family, who made a living by collecting and selling herbs a hundred years ago, and has continued to this day. Although the business is not very prosperous, it is not as good as that of Leyang City outside, but Master Xia stomped his feet in Taigu Town, not to mention that the ground shook three times, at least shook it.
Such a family looks at the daughter of the Ying family in Xinghua Village, Xinghua Village, is fortunate and unlucky, and the root cause is still caused by the stupid promiser himself.
Let's talk about the Xia family's pharmacy.
The faΓ§ade is spacious, occupying a separate two-storey building on the street front.
Shake it and look at it, the plaque hanging on the door frame is the most dazzling, it is said that the magistrate of Taigu Town personally raised the pen, the name is: Baicaotang.
Aunt Xiao stood at the door for a while, leading Xu Er, Xiao Chen, Xu Er and others inside.
The hall is very magnificent, the compartment for storing herbs occupies a full wall in the hall, and the top compartment needs a ladder to be reached.
"Yo, isn't this Ying Jianiang? How can you have time to come to Baicaotang, please come in. "It was the key shopkeeper in the Hundred Grass Hall who spoke.
The relationship between the Ying Xia family was decided many years ago.
It is not surprising that the key shopkeeper knows the Ying family.
Aunt Xiao went inside, walked to the counter and stopped going inside, asked Xiao Chen to take out the herbs in the basket, put them on the counter, and said, "The weather is very good today, take your children to the town for a walk, and send these herbs by the way." Our Ying family's shop in Xinghua Village is really small, and most of the people who come to buy medicine in the village will not buy these precious medicinal materials, and it is a pity to put them in our small pharmacy for the Xia family's medicinal materials. No, by the way, send it back, we understand the meaning of the Xia family......"
The key shopkeeper looked at the medicinal materials, at Aunt Xiao, and at Xu Er standing behind.
With a good idea in his heart, he smiled and said, "These medicinal materials were personally ordered by Master Xia, and he personally sorted them out and sent them by others." In this way, Ying Jianiang, you can let me say a word to Master Xia......" After speaking, she smiled, turned around and lifted the curtain into the back hall.
Master Xia was checking the classics in the back hall.
When he saw the shopkeeper of the key come in, he asked what was the matter.
The key shopkeeper said: "It's Ying's mother who is here." β
Master Xia lifted his face from the book and looked at the key shopkeeper meaningfully.
In two days, it will be the day when the Xia family will be hired by the Ying family, why did the Ying family come first?
The key shopkeeper said, "I also brought the medicinal materials we sent a few days ago." β
Master Xia's face was stunned and raised his eyebrows.
The key shopkeeper continued: "That Xu Er is also here, and it looks really different from before. β
These words made Daddy Xia suddenly get up.
I threw my sleeves down and went to the lobby, and when I walked through the curtain, I took a deep breath and cheered up.
"Oh, look at me, it's really rude, my in-laws are here, but I told my in-laws to stand in the lobby, hurry up and please, please." Mr. Xia is very enthusiastic.
Instead, they called Aunt Xiao, and they had no room to refuse.
Xu Er followed their footsteps and thought: The Xia family is really rich, and looking at the clothes on Master Xia's body, they are much better than the other people in Taigu Town, but they are not as good as the two sons.
Old Man Xia had a smile on his face, and whispered a few words in the ear of the key shopkeeper.
The key shopkeeper closed his eyes and nodded, and hurried out.
Entering the inner hall, the group sat down.
Aunt Xiao was just about to speak, but Master Xia hurriedly said: "I'm afraid my in-laws are thirsty all the way into the city, drink some tea, or Xinyang Maojian'er who just entered in early spring this year, and my in-laws will try it." β
Immediately, Xiao Si from the pharmacy brought tea.
Master Xia is used to pinching people, where has Aunt Xiao eaten this kind of tea, just hearing the name is confused, for a while, it took a while to remember the important things about the door today, and then said, he was already uncomfortable, "Master Xia, we are not here to drink tea today, it is ......" glanced at Xu Er while passing the road.
Master Xia interrupted again: "This is Xiao Chen, I heard that this child is a child at the age of ten. When I saw it, I was really generous. In the future, after Xu Er marries, Xiao Chen will come to Taigu Town to study, continue the scientific examination, and there will be a great future in the future, and it will also be a great opportunity for you to show your ancestors......"
Aunt Xiao and Xiao Chen, the corners of their mouths twitched.
Master Xia knew that Xiao Chen had heard what Xiao Si had said about the medicine delivered by the Ying family.
Next, Master Xia almost didn't give Mrs. Xiao and the others room to speak, talking about everything, not leaving relatives, saying that Mrs. Xiao's old face was pale and she felt ashamed.
Xiao Chen has been observing Master Xia, and intuitively he doesn't like this person.
And Xu Er, she is not ready to be like Aunt Xiao, she is moved by affection and reason, she wants to withdraw from her family, and she has her own way of being out of tune.
After a while, the key shopkeeper came back and nodded to Master Xia.
Master Xia got up and warmly greeted Aunt Xiao and the others outside, and said, "It's already my Xia's fault to let my in-laws go to town by themselves, and I have wronged my in-laws to drink tea in this pharmacy, it's really ...... It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate. In this way, I have asked the key shopkeeper to arrange a carriage, and I will first let the key shopkeeper take you to the house, and the lady will wait for you at the house, and I will return to the house to entertain you as soon as I am done here...... I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll miss it first. With that, he left.
Leave Aunt Xiao and the others by the carriage and let the key shopkeeper greet him, and he didn't enter the medicine hall.
Aunt Xiao and the others got into the carriage inexplicably.
Aunt Xiao thought to herself, if you want to withdraw from your family or postpone your family affairs, you have to find the master of the Xia family and say, Master Xia can't talk here, it's okay to go and meet Mrs. Xia.
I don't think there's anything wrong with it.
Look, otherwise, how can you say that Aunt Xiao looks bluffing, and her enthusiasm can't resist her simplicity.
When she met a smiling tiger like Master Xia, she only had to follow the will of others.

Let's talk about Yin Mochu, Su Ling, and Shen Xiling.
laughed all the way, but he didn't feel bad because of Xu Er's "fraudulent money".
Mo Chu and Su Ling walked together.
"You are a strange person, you don't stay in Leyang City, but follow me to Taigu Town." Mo Chu glanced at Su Ling, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Su Ling smiled casually: "How did I come, you still don't know?" He glanced at the carriage behind him and said, "I want to stay in Leyang City, but it's a pity...... My cousin asked again and again, but I can't bear to refuse as a cousin! β
Mo Chu said: "Hugh wants to talk nonsense. β
Su Ling continued to laugh and said: "How can I talk nonsense, I said I can't bear it, but I didn't say that you can't bear it......"
Mo Chu bowed slightly, knowing that Su Ling was making fun of him, because he said: "Xiao Xiling may really just want to come to Taigu Town to take a look, and I want your cousin to accompany him." β
Su Ling continued to smile, "I hope so, I hope so." β
Shen Xiling sat in the carriage and didn't know what the two of them were talking about, so he slowly lifted the curtain of the carriage from time to time, pretending to take a casual look at Mo Chu's back.
No one knows the sweetness in my heart.
When they were young, the group stopped in front of a large mansion.
Mo Chu said: "This is my aunt's house." My aunt didn't know that I had arrived in Taigu Town, so why don't we go and say hello and bow to my old house again. β
Su Ling raised his eyes and looked at the plaque in front of the mansion, and silently recited: "Xia Mansion." β
