031 Coming
When Qiu Xiang woke up, it was already night, and she had slept soundly for most of the hour, and Liang Er's family had already come to urge her three times. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
He stroked his face with a handkerchief, and the red dot on his forehead was rolled into a long line, from the middle of his forehead to his left eye.
The moonlight outside the window is tender yellow, the full moon is not full, and when you close your eyes, those vicissitudes of life pass in front of you, but they are no longer as bad as before.
Crooked in his own exclusive corner of the warm collapse, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside far and near, and the red and green patches on the window paper, Chen Min was happy with this peaceful time, "Sister Qiu Xiang's complexion has become more and more ruddy these days." ”
"That's it! Don't look at how many good goods we have given up on this skin, if it doesn't give me two flowers, I'm sorry I serve it so carefully! ”
Liang Sanya has been messing with her mother-in-law since she was a child, and the words she used naturally followed, and her teenage tongue was like a forty or fifty old mother, and she didn't pay attention to it.
Chen Mintao doesn't care, Sister Qiuxiang is just this condition, just like this, she still hooks a young and promising young man who is trying out the economy and is a good young man.
"Zou Yong hasn't been playing with you for the past few days?"
"Don't mention it, he called his father to circle up, and at the end of the year, their family was also busy, and he had a poetic atmosphere, and he was dragged by his father everywhere to give the master's family a face, and he just rushed back to Zhangzhou from the suburbs of Beijing for the New Year."
Zhangzhou is not far from the capital, and it will only take five or six days to ride a horse.
After putting away the wine bottle and glass, opening the window to disperse the smell of wine, Chen Mintao took out a palm-sized lacquered gold double happiness match from the box, and held it to Qiu Xiang, who couldn't stop yawning.
"What's this? For me? Qiu Xiang's eyes lit up, and her heart was happy.
"For you, add makeup, this thing can be broken in the middle, and there is a small dark compartment inside, you can hide something, like a piece of clothing and a strand of hair or something."
"What am I doing hiding my hair?"
"The body is skinny, if you leave him to pick up his hair, he will have a strand of heart locked in you!" Chen Mintao was full of horses and did not blush.
Sister Qiuxiang believed it, and it was 'adding makeup' and 'locking the gods', Xizi played with her heart for a long time and put it away carefully.
The two of them excitedly discussed the jewelry and utensils in the dowry for a while, and the matter of three years later was pulled in advance to start planning now, and Qiu Ju outside hurriedly ran back to the yard, running out of breath.
Qiu Xiang thought that her mother had urged them several times to be in a hurry, and just wanted to say: Let's leave immediately!
Qiu Ju stepped into the door of the house and popped out a voice, "Oh no, there are people from the Chen family outside!" ”
Clams?
Chen Mintao and Qiu Xiang turned their heads and looked at each other, and their expressions were all capitalized "clams"?
"That Chen family in the capital?" Chen Mintao asked, this New Year's eve is really unexpected.
"Kyo ...... Yes, the Chen family in the capital is ...... When I was outside, the head of the house called me to come and invite the master over. After Qiu Ju finished speaking, she hurriedly poured herself a glass of water and drank it.
Qiu Xiang's eyes widened, "This is really good at picking days!" It's not good to pick it up even now, it's been more than a year, and I haven't even looked at my shadow, so I'm in time for the New Year! Just said that Master Chen fell asleep and wanted to see him early! ”
After speaking, he glanced at Chen Mintao proudly, that means that my majesty is okay, right?
As a result, to her disappointment, Chen Mintao, who had always obeyed her orders, went straight to the bed and got off the ground, straightened her clothes, removed her hair and called Qiu Ju to re-tie her, cleaned her hands and face again, and slightly put some rouge on her cheeks, so that her thin little face looked a little rounder.
Took Qiu Ju's hand and walked to the outer courtyard, and inquired carefully about the people from the Chen family as he walked, dressed very much, and talked very much.
Qiu Xiangmu didn't like it, followed behind the two of them, and was given a brain jump by Chen Mintao, "You go ahead of the two of us, go to your mother to find out the news first, and see what the people from the Chen family mean, are they here to pick me up and go back to Beijing?" In addition, remember, when the Chen family is here, you go back to your mother's yard to sleep first, there is no need, don't come to the yard easily, in front of the Chen family, you must not show that you and I are good friends! ”
As smart as Sister Qiuxiang, she understood Chen Mintao's 'deep meaning' with two turns of her eyes, "I'm awake, let's work together inside and outside, and kill them!" After saying that, his eyes were full of laughter, and he ran away.
With a long sigh, Qiu Ju felt helpless, Qiu Xiang was taken out, but she was going to be tied to death on this crooked neck tree.
Shaking Qiu Ju's sweaty palm, Chen Mintao, "I'm afraid?" "This hasn't even begun!
Qiu Ju pursed her lips and didn't answer.
Chen Mintao, "Your deed paper should be in the hands of the eldest daughter of the Liang Er family, Liang Er's family can't buy slaves without getting rid of the slave status, but Liang Daya took it off with her husband's family, even if I want to help you get rid of the nationality, I can't do it for a while." ”
Qiu Ju herself also knew in her heart that Liang Er's shopkeeper did not want to continue to tear up with Chen Mintao, and he would definitely give himself to the Chen family, and the Chen family would buy her first.
Fate is never in her own hands, she and Chen Mintao are both.
Chen Mintao saw that Qiu Ju was unhappy, and lowered his voice and said in his ear, "If I say that I can give you a new identity, the household registration of a famous spy recognized by the government, and you can also cancel the deed paper you locked in the official mansion, whether it is the Liang family or the Chen family, the one they hold in their hands is a piece of waste paper, of course, there is no such person as Qiu Ju in the world from now on." ”
Qiu Ju raised her head suddenly, her heart was shocked, and her heartbeat that had calmed down when she just came back from running was beating violently, and she heard Chen Mintao's voice exploding in her ears like a drum.
"Are you still willing to follow me?"
I'm the dividing line that washes my face with disposable soap.
In the outer courtyard, Qiu Xiang slipped to his mother's side like a little snake, and when Liang Er's family saw her, he couldn't wait to tie a rope to her, wrapped her and took her straight to his house, "Your father is in front of him to greet the people from the Chen family at this time, I also have to quickly arrange the guest room, this is not the time for you to make trouble, listen to your mother's words, go to your brother's house to take care of your brother, don't let him come out and run around, and collide with the guests!" ”
Liang Erjia put down his words, and kept turning to the front to order all matters, just in time for the Chinese New Year, there were a lot of vacant rooms in the buddy's room, everyone squeezed in, and gave up a few rooms for the Chen family from Beijing.
As soon as Liang Erjia's front foot left, Qiu Xiang felt out on the back foot to find her father, and the nurse next to her brother watched, and she didn't need her.
All the way to the hall where the guests were entertained, I saw Liang Er's shopkeeper leaning on his back, talking to a slightly chubby woman who looked like a housekeeper.
Qiu Xiang hid her body and leaned over to listen.
"Liang Er's shopkeeper is bothered, our group came suddenly, and I couldn't tell you a word of prophetism, I hope to understand."
said sorry words, but the voice was slightly cold, and he didn't accept much.
The man who came was in his early forties, his hair was meticulously combed, his robe was dyed with a little wind and snow, his shoes were stained with mud, his face was tired, his brows were deeply wrinkled, and his tiredness could not be hidden.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Rui's mother is here in person, Liang Er wants to entertain her, but it's late at night, and the insider has already gone to arrange accommodation for a few people, if you are not in a hurry, wait until you get up tomorrow morning and see you......"
Mother Rui, who was still tired just now, had a sharp look in her eyes, "Liang Er's shopkeeper is kind, this kindness old sister understands, but the person who should be seen still has to be seen first, regardless of day and night, everything that the master has to do is done, Liang Er's shopkeeper, do you say this is the reason?" ”
deliberately bit the word "kindness", Liang Er's shopkeeper was stabbed, his heart was sunburned, he didn't dare to persuade again, and hung his head and said yes.
Rui's mother is the housekeeper mother in the ancestral courtyard, and the three generations have done things for the ancestor, and the ancestor went to the courtyard where Rui's mother entered when he was sixty, and he is the youngest one, and he is also one of the few left.
Seeing that Liang Er's shopkeeper knew the opportunity, Rui's mother turned her seat, took the tea handed over by the little girl who followed behind her, and took a sip to recuperate.
After waiting for a while, Qiu Ju led Chen Mintao over.
Rui's mother got up, the two of them saluted, and Liang Er's shopkeeper left the seat with a few words.
Chen Mintao sat on the chair and let Rui's mother and her party look at it, the sound of firecrackers outside the street was continuous, and the family followed the customs etiquette, eating dumplings and saying auspicious words for the New Year, and the babies who did not sleep ran to the street to watch the flowers and set off the cannons, making trouble haha, and shouting endlessly.
The hall was more and more lined with pins and needles, and Rui's mother searched her memory to find Chen Lu's family, who she had met a few times in the Chen Mansion when she was young, and then overlapped her shadow with the little girl in front of her.
In terms of appearance alone, Chen Mintao is not very similar to the Chen family, but the little girl is still young after all, and there are some who have not grown.
"How many days is Miss Chen Qi eating and living in the Liang family?"
One sentence opened, and the two hit the first edge.
Chen Mintao opened his mouth and said lightly, "It's good to eat and live." ”
These days, a few days, this is to erase the year in one sentence.
"It's all good, Grandma Chen San and Young Master Chen have been gone for almost two years, although it is too tight in the filial piety period, but wearing red and green is also disrespectful to the ancestors, according to the rules of the Chen family, the closest relatives should be kept for three years."
Hanging his head and saying nothing, Chen Mintao was ignorant.
Qiu Ju, who was standing on the side, was slightly stunned, it was his own negligence, Chen Mintao came to the Liang family to eat and wear plain food, and the dishes with meat have always been used only a little, white meat and eggs are rarely used, and the clothes are also dark and old, and they don't wear fancy.
Rui's mother continued, "Don't work for the Liang family, the old slave brought plain clothes on the way here, and asked Cuiwen to send them to you in a while, you changed and simply packed up the soft utensils, and we will go back to Beijing in a few days." ”
After Rui's mother finished speaking, she gestured to a little girl standing behind her, "Cui Wen is clever, and I will serve you in the future." ”
Cuiwen came forward to greet Chen Mintao, and Chen Mintao bowed.
Rui's mother nodded Qiu Ju again, "This is the girl of Liang Er's family, it looks like a rule, Liang Er's shopkeeper just explained to me, this girl has been waiting by your side, I'm afraid you won't be used to going to Beijing, so bring it with you." ”
The Liang family didn't give the deed, but gave the girl but didn't give the deed paper, it seems that it was not with the Chen Liang family, but for some reason, the Liang family had to release the people, and the two sides reached a compromise, and set up a Liang family's subordinate Qiu Ju to check and balance Chen Mintao's side.
Chen Mintao's mind was racing, and his face was silent.
Rui's mother didn't say much, she never mentioned the whereabouts of Chen Xiang's family, nor did she mention the death of her ancestors, she didn't ask about the rules of female celebrities, and she didn't ask about the old things of her predecessors.
Only slightly gave a dismount and gently took it, obviously the car and horses were tired, tired and not light, now that I see people, I put my mind down, and I don't want to entangle with a little girl anymore.
Chen Mintao hit the snake with the stick, "Everything has Lao Mom." ”
