Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Year Is Right
Xia Yejin rarely saw such a phoenix branch, she seemed to be stuck in a huge quagmire, and the more desperately she climbed up, the deeper she sank. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Xia Yejin didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only say silently, no, you will definitely meet someone who is good to you in the future.
"I've been here for ten years ......", Feng Zhi continued as if he hadn't heard Xia Yejin's words, "It's time to send it out." ”
Hearing this, Xia Yejin was supposed to be happy, but she couldn't be happy. Marry an old man who has never met before, and don't even know what to call him, help him do laundry and cooking, help him have children, and when things don't go well, he even has to endure being scolded and beaten, what is the joy of such a life?
Suddenly, Xia Yejin was a little skeptical about his mission.
Maybe Feng Zhi can save her life by marrying someone else, but when she is with Fu Mingyu, maybe she can be regarded as really living once, right?
She was caught in a dilemma.
For the first time, I began to wonder if it was right or wrong for me to do this.
"Are you still waiting for someone to invite? Why don't you get up and send the snacks to the flower hall! ――”
Sister-in-law Liu stood at the door with her hands on her hips and began to scold again.
Xia Yejin sighed helplessly, and the two got up and walked towards the kitchen.
The hall is especially lively today.
The inside and outside were full of people, and the old lady Fu was sitting in the middle of the hall, looking at the young man in front of him with kind eyebrows.
Each place in the Fu family has specific rules.
For example, in today's scene, a newcomer like Xia Yejin can't enter the house, she can only give snacks to those first-class girls standing at the door, and they will send them in.
Everyone said that the eldest young master, she had been here for a few days, and she had heard the name for a few days. I was really curious, thinking that there was nothing else to do after delivering the snacks, so I followed the other subordinates, stood outside the hall, and watched from a distance.
In the hall, Fu Mingxin was standing and talking back to the old lady.
First of all, he explained that some people along the railway were on strike, which made the train a little late, and he rushed back at night, and he didn't dare to alarm everyone, so he came to see him in the morning.
Old Lady Li saw that he was even thinner than a few months ago, and heard him talk about the chaotic scene along the way, and his face showed worry.
Fu Mingxin seemed to be aware of the look on the old lady's face, so he changed his tone, described in detail the customs and customs of the north, talked about some exotic characteristics abroad, who he saw, what novel things he encountered, and what he ate, and from time to time inserted some innocuous witticisms, which made the old lady smile.
Everyone present saw that the old lady was in a good mood, so they also laughed, and for a while, there were bursts of laughter in the hall, sweeping away the previous haze, so lively.
Xia Yejin listened from afar, but felt that this person's voice was a little familiar.
I don't know what the front looks like, but if you just look at the thin and long back, it is a little different from the warlord officer with a big belly and a greasy face in her imagination.
There were too many people, and after standing for a long time, Xia Yejin didn't see what the legendary eldest young master was like, and suddenly felt a little bored, so he turned around and planned to find a secluded place to take a breath and rest.
As soon as the front foot entered the garden, I saw a person sitting on the big stone on the edge of the rockery, boredly breaking off the leaves piece by piece, and then throwing it into the lake in front of him, who is it not Fu Mingyu?
Thinking of last night's incident, she was unhappy in her heart, and was about to turn around immediately, but was seen by his sharp eyes.
"Hey, stop me! If you don't work, you'll be lazy! ”
Xia Yejin was speechless.
But it was not good to go out, so I had to turn around and stand where I was.
"The eldest young master is in the front hall, don't you go to see it?"
Fu Mingyu saw her standing still and not speaking, and suddenly felt interesting.
Xia Ye Jinxin said that I had already gone to see it, but I didn't see the front, but he said with a smile on his face, the kitchen is still busy.
"What's so good about him, you say, that everyone is around him like this? The people who came out of the Confucian church, the eight-strand articles and old ideas he learned, have long been unable to keep up with this era. ”
Xia Yejin knew that Fu Mingyu didn't say these words for her, so she didn't answer.
"By the way, who did you learn from the day before yesterday that you said that all men are equal?"
Fu Mingyu looked at her suddenly.
Like who learned? Isn't that basic common sense?
After thinking about it, Xia Yejin felt that her God's perspective was too heavy, now that it is the Republic of China, she is just a subordinate in Fu Mingyu's eyes, where will the subordinate understand these trendy ideas?
"Miss Cousin told me."
Hearing this, Fu Mingyu's eyes lit up again, as if he had found someone in the same way, he looked at Xia Yejin's gaze softened, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be quite smart." ”
In fact, looking at the person in front of her, Xia Yejin wanted to know who the white figure was last night, was it Feng Zhi? Does he like phoenix branches? But these words tossed and turned in my heart, but I couldn't find a suitable way to ask them.
The empty wrist bode well for the slightest progress in her mission.
"What else did Miss Watch teach you? Teach you to read? ”
Xia Yejin was about to answer no, but footsteps sounded behind him, and then a clear and soft voice came, "Second brother, you are here, let me find it." ”
Turning his head suddenly-
The sky is cloudless, and the warm sun is shining.
Nearby, a few plum trees are blooming luxuriantly, like snowdrifting clouds, a gust of wind blows, and the petals are spread all over the ground. The faint fragrance lingers and refreshes people's hearts.
"Isn't my eldest brother very busy, what are you looking for me to do?"
Fu Mingyu's words brought Xia Yejin back to reality.
"Yan Mei said that you were locked up by your grandfather, I'll come to see you......", Fu Mingxin smiled with a joke, but there was no trace of disrespect.
"She's the one who talks a lot!"
Fu Mingyu muttered, reluctantly jumped off the big rock, and suddenly found that Qiu Yan was also standing next to Fu Mingxin.
He stuck out his tongue a little weakly, quickly changed the topic, asked Qiu Yan if there was a new magazine, and helped him bring a copy.
"You don't know how popular this issue of "Trend of Thought" is, I hurried to grab a copy." Qiu Yan didn't seem to care about his previous words, and his expression was quite proud.
"That's just for me."
"I haven't even seen it yet." The young face began to be depressed.
"It's the same when I'm done reading it for you."
"It's okay for you, but second cousin, you have to promise me one condition......"
"Well said."
"You're going to help me with my English. We just hired a foreign language teacher, but I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up. By the way, cousin, what good things did you bring to me this time? ……”
Xia Yejin stood in place, watching the three of them go away.
The winter sun shines through the branches, casting dappled shadows on the large stones. Carp in the artificial lake are circling in circles around the aquatic plants. In front of the middle hall, people were busy arranging lunch, and Fu Mingxin, who smiled at her for the first time just now.
The smile is so light and light, presumably the wound on the back has been bandaged again, right?
