Chapter 31: A Visit to My Aunt's House

In the blink of an eye, it has been August, the construction project of Lingshan Village has been almost halfway through, and Xianjiuju has also stabilized, Wushuang is ready to open the branch to Fucheng, and she is ready to start the matter of Xianjiuju after her brother has finished the county examination and the Mid-Autumn Festival.

On the day of the county test, Wushuang prepared two bamboo tubes of spiritual water for Mu Jingfeng, and some dry noodles made by himself, because other things had to be checked when they went in, and they couldn't bring in buns and those pies, because during the inspection process, the inspectors would directly break them all in half, and it was not convenient to hold them. Some of them couldn't even support it and died directly in the examination room, Wushuang only felt that this ancient examination system was simply perverted.

It makes many disciples born in the poor family see hope, but also see disappointment, some people are still a child after the test for a lifetime, and some people are officialdom all the way smoothly, like the children of the official family, even if they can't pass the exam, they can use money to buy officials or rely on relationships to go directly, and those students from the poor family have worked hard all their lives, and in the end, in addition to the top three, the rest of the lucky ones are either assigned to the town of their hometown to be petty officials, and those who are unlucky can only go home to continue farming, work all day long, and live a life of peasant life with their duty.

Wushuang and Uncle watched the eldest brother enter the examination room before leaving, after all, there are three days, and they have to find a place to live, so they can't stay at the door all the time, right? This time I came to Fucheng, Wushuang wanted to find a better section of the road by the way, and by the way, I accompanied my uncle to see the legendary aunt, and I only saw this aunt once, that is, when my uncle got married two years ago, of course, she only saw it through the memory of the original owner, the original owner didn't care about people, and she didn't know the character of the aunt.

"Uncle, let's go find a shop first, and find a place to live by the way!" Seeing that the uncle nodded and agreed, Wushuang continued to look for a shop, but unfortunately after looking for a long time or did not find a good one, some bars are in the deep alleys, Wushuang is not very satisfied, and finally there is no way, so I have to find an inn to enter the space to soak in the hot spring, and then sleep beautifully.

She and her brother-in-law found a place called Binyue Inn and walked in. "May I ask if the two guest officers are dining or staying at the guest house?" The shopkeeper looked at them with a smile, "We have meals and accommodation," the uncle said to the shopkeeper, "Okay, we have a low-class room here for 20 Wen a day, a medium room for 50 Wen a day, and a superior room for 100 Wen a day, I don't know what kind of room the two guest officers want?" “

"Let's get us two first-class rooms, this is the cost of two rooms, now give us some food!" The uncle said that he handed over the 600 Wen to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper took it with a smile, and then instructed the shopkeeper to give Wushuang what they were going to eat, and then asked the two shopkeepers to go upstairs to clean up the room. After Wushuang and they had lunch, they went back to their rooms, Wushuang locked the door as soon as he entered the inn, and then went into the space to soak in the hot springs, when Wushuang came out, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, Wushuang looked out of the door with perspective, and saw that it was the uncle, "What else is the matter with the uncle?" Seeing Wushuang open the door, he smiled and said, "I want to go to your aunt's house now, and I don't know if you want to go, so I came to ask." Wushuang nodded, "Let's go!" Drop by and go buy something. Saying that, he locked the door, anyway, there was nothing valuable inside, only some change of clothes, and Wushuang was not afraid of losing it.

Wushuang and Uncle walked around Fucheng for a while, this morning Wushuang's mind was looking for a store, and he didn't pay too much attention to the situation in Fucheng, now I looked, only to see the traffic, crowds of people, all kinds of shops on the street, there are very few stalls, unlike Baihua Town, there are more stalls, even those who buy vegetables here have their own shops, and the living standards of Baihua Town are still not as good as Fucheng, after all, it is just a town. After understanding, Wushuang learned that the aunt has two children, the eldest daughter is called Liu Yan, 12 years old, two months younger than Wushuang, and the youngest son is called Liu Yan, 10 years old, and there are father-in-law and mother-in-law at home, all of whom are kind-hearted people, unlike the Hu family, which exudes the best taste all over the body. Wushuang finally decided to buy a few pieces of cloth and some pastries, as well as some children's and women's jewelry, I heard that the little cousin was studying in the school, she bought some good pen and ink, and after buying these, she followed her uncle to the direction of her aunt's house, as for the things that Wushuang bought, it must have been mentioned by her uncle, "Shuang'er, why did you buy so many things, your aunt's life is still good, and it's not bad!" "During this period, my uncle has been preventing her from buying things, but in Wushuang's words, this first visit can't be empty-handed, right? How embarrassing is that? Besides, she is not a stingy person, she will naturally buy what she can buy, and it is always good to talk about her intentions.

In this way, the two of them stopped and stopped, and finally stopped in front of the door of a small courtyard, which was quite far away, which was almost out of the city, and the uncle knocked a few times, and then a clear voice came from the door, "Who?" It was a little girl's voice, and the uncle laughed dotingly when he heard the voice, "Yan'er, it's the uncle!" As soon as my uncle made a sound, there was a hurried sound of opening the door inside, "It's really uncle, mother, come quickly, my uncle has come to see us!" Wushuang stood aside and looked at the little girl standing in front of the door, only to see that she had a goose egg face, white skin, light eyebrows, big eyes, and her eyes were shining because of excitement at this time. This kid is a smart one, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, before Wushuang did not change, his grandfather was the most fond of this granddaughter, both smart and lively and sensible, but now if you ask your grandfather who he likes the most, he will definitely answer that he likes both, and now Wushuang is even ashamed of himself, if he likes it, it is better to say that it is more appropriate to say admiration.

"This is Shuang'er?" Wushuang only heard a gentle voice, she seemed a little unsure, Wushuang looked over, and saw that the woman in front of her was seven points similar to her own mother, Wushuang's face was full of gentle smiles, "Auntie!" Liu Yan found out that there was someone next to her, and her face suddenly turned embarrassed, her face was flushed, and she blamed herself for seeing her brother-in-law too excited, "Cousin Wushuang!" Wucheng smiled and nodded, Liu Yan had never seen Wushuang, because she had never been to her grandmother's house when she was so old, she was all grandmothers who came to her house, and she originally wanted to go with her uncle when she got married, but unfortunately because her grandmother suddenly fell ill, she could only stay at home to help her grandfather take care of her grandmother, just because she hadn't seen it, so she didn't know how Wushuang was before, but Yuan Yuanyuan was different, she knew what her niece was like, and now she couldn't help but be shocked when she saw it, This child has only been seen for more than two years, and now he is more and more amazing, not to mention, he still has a breath of superiority, a few points stronger than the official lady she often sees, obviously only two months older than Yan'er, but he looks a lot more dignified and stable than Yan'er, "It's really Shuang'er, come, come in with my aunt!" Yuan Yuan's face was full of excitement, seeing the change of her niece, she was both surprised and relieved, she was worried that this child didn't even want to go out, and he didn't like to call people, the whole person looked sullen and gloomy, how to marry in the future? But now that I look at it, only she picks people!

Wushuang let her go in with a smile on her face, and her little cousin also ran over and took her other hand with a smile, Wushuang only felt that she was being held like a prisoner, "Hey! They've all left me, how can you do that! The uncle's face was full of grievances, and the three of them glanced at each other, and they all burst out laughing.

"You are really in the small city, you still buy so many things here, are we still missing?" Yuan Yuan pulled Wushuang to sit opposite and looked at his little brother complainingly, "Second sister, you really wronged me, these are all bought by Wushuang!" The uncle hurriedly shouted injustice, and Wushuang hurriedly smiled and said, "These are all for my cousin and cousin, and they don't cost a few dollars." Yuan Yuanxuan looked at her little brother in surprise, as if asking what was going on, but she knew that her sister's family was not rich, and she gave her fifty taels when she went back before, how could she have the money to buy so many things now? Because Wushuang was dressed more plainly, she didn't notice that it was silk. She didn't know that the fifty taels had all gone into the hands of the Hu family, and the Wushuang family hadn't even gotten the edges.

"Second sister, you don't know! Shuang'er is amazing now, she opened a restaurant, and the collection on this day is hundreds of thousands of taels. After the uncle finished speaking, he had a twenty percent income in it, earning 20,000 taels a day, and now the family doesn't have to worry about money, "Wow! Cousin Musou is amazing! Liu Yan's face of admiration, since she saw this cousin for the first time, gave her a very warm and friendly feeling, so that she couldn't help but want to get closer, "One hundred thousand taels a day?" Yuan Yuan was dumbfounded, this early business made by his own family will earn hundreds of taels a year, what is the concept of 100,000 taels a day? Yuan Yuan stared at Wushuang dumbfounded, "Uh-huh! So second sister, don't worry about any money for her, the last thing she lacks now is money. The uncle looked at Wushuang and teased, but Wushuang didn't say anything, just smiled quietly, waiting for them to wake up from the shock.

"That's great!" I saw that my aunt's eyes were full of mist, her eldest sister could finally get out of trouble, could she not be excited? Wushuang is very relieved in his heart, some people have lived in their hearts for a long time and always feel that they are the masters, and suddenly see the people who were originally under you running to their heads all of a sudden, and it is the kind of distance that cannot be crossed, there will always be discomfort in their hearts, whether it is relatives or others, they are just uncomfortable. Fortunately, her aunt doesn't seem to be that kind of person, all she has is a face full of relief and joy.

"By the way, you haven't said why you came to Fucheng suddenly?" Yuan Yuanyuan was happy and suddenly remembered this matter, "It was Xiaofeng who participated in this year's county-level exam, and Shuang'er came to Fucheng to find a shop, and she wanted to open the branch of Xianjiuju here." ”

"So that's the case, I forgot about Feng'er, is the Xianjiuju you just said the restaurant opened by Shuang'er?" Yuan Yuanxuan felt that the name was somewhat familiar, but he just couldn't remember it! "It turns out that Xianjiuju was opened by my cousin, and the young ladies who studied the piano with me all said that Xianjiu is the best restaurant in the whole continent, and they said that they often go to eat with their parents, saying that the wine in it is very delicious, and women can become beautiful after drinking! Is it true, cousin? Liu Yan looked at Wushuang with an excited face, the immortal wine house that everyone praised was actually opened by her cousin, she was so happy.

"When you get to Baihua Town, my cousin will ask you to drink enough!" Wushuang likes this cousin from the bottom of his heart.,With the same lively personality as his little sister.,Not impatient or pretentious.,It's comfortable to look at.。 "Great, I'll definitely go." I saw that her eyes lit up, and then she seemed to think of something, and suddenly her little face became depressed. "What's wrong?" Wushuang couldn't bear to look at her like this, "Cousin, but I still have to learn the piano for two months, if I don't go, I won't be able to catch up with the class, and then the exam will be laughed at by those young ladies!" ”

Yuan Yuan smiled helplessly, "What do you know, your father is for your good, he just wants you to live better in the future!" In fact, Willow is Wushuang's sister-in-law, and he just hopes that his little cousin can marry better in the future, and he doesn't have to be busy all day long like him, just to earn some money to support his family.

"Okay, okay, your brother-in-law is coming back soon, you can rest first, and I'll make lunch for you." In fact, Wushuang wanted to say that they had already eaten, but looking at the enthusiasm on her aunt's face, she had no choice but to do it. "I'm sitting here, and you sisters can go out for a walk if you feel bored." The uncle said and drank tea by himself. After hearing her uncle's words, her cousin directly pulled her out of the boudoir, saying that she wanted to play a song for her, but Wushuang felt helpless and had to let her go. The little cousin played a song that Wushuang had never heard, and Wushuang thought it was still good, but some places were a little lacking in heat, so he couldn't help but give her some pointers, and Liu Yan realized that her cousin could also play the piano, and she looked very powerful, "Cousin, you can play a song for me!" She looked at Wushuang expectantly, her cousin must have played very well, she just had this kind of intuition.

Wushuang looked at his cousin's face full of joy, play quickly, and couldn't help but play a modern campus well-known song "Farewell", Liu Yan looked at her in shock, "Cousin, your piano skills are better than our teachers!" I don't even want to learn anymore, so why don't you teach me! Wushuang only felt funny, but in the end, she was pestered by her for a whole noon, and she couldn't help but agree. After a while, the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law also came back, everyone warmed up together and then had a meal together, Wushuang only felt that his stomach was about to burst, these people kept giving her vegetables, and in the end, the uncle couldn't bear to see her uncomfortable, helped her solve half of it, and was scolded by the aunt for him, he looked at Wushuang aggrievedly, and Wushuang laughed secretly in his heart. After eating, I chatted with my aunt and cousin for a while, and then left.
