103 Celebrate the festive season and look far away
In the golden autumn of September, the sky is high and cool.
Although the autumn breeze is blowing, the remnants of the autumn tiger are still there, and Weishan is far away, so the Zheng family set off early in the morning.
It wasn't until she went out that Xia Chu looked at the few green cloth carriages behind her and realized that it was not only their family today, but also three or five friends, she swept into the crowd of greetings with her uncle Zheng Yun, most of them didn't know each other, but there was a teenager who had met once, it was the son of Song Juren, Song Chengzhao.
The family of three also sat in a carriage with the marks of the car dealer, which should have been rented.
Probably this trip was said earlier, but the eldest uncle only mentioned it last night.
Old Madam Zheng's face was a little uncomfortable.
She took advantage of her poor health and pulled Xia Chu into the carriage early.
"Grandmother, don't be angry, you should have made an appointment with three or five friends when you climb high and look at it, and it's interesting to pour wine, boil tea, and enjoy the flowers, what's the lack of fun?" Xia Chuqing knew that most of them should be partners in the Zheng family's business, so he persuaded: "How good is it to be lively?" ”
"He had consulted with me earlier, and I wouldn't have been, so why didn't he call me until it was over?" Old Madam Zheng said angrily: "It's like I'm an unreasonable old lady!" It's really annoying! ”
This is the child's words, and it is more or less because she is reluctant to go on this trip.
"You're not in good health for a while, and my uncle is afraid of causing you trouble." Xia Chu said with a smile: "Uncle is filial to you!" ”
"Just say that my son is not caring, and that's true." Old Madam Zheng sighed and said, "You don't have to help your uncle say Xiang, my own son, don't you know what he is like?" I can't get out of the eyes of money! ”
What a friend and confidant, I'm afraid it's a partner! It's obviously a family stepping on the autumn, but it has become his social field!
How can it be so serious? Xia Chu smiled lightly, hugged one of Mrs. Zheng's arms, and said with a smile: "It's great for me to look at my uncle, if only the eldest brother could be so sleek!" ”
Speaking of her grandson, Mrs. Zheng was relaxed: "Your sister-in-law is also five months old, right?" ”
"Yes, it's been more than five months, and I'm already pregnant! In the first month of next year, maybe you will be able to hug your fat great-grandson! Xia Chu was also happy to talk to her, as long as she didn't think about it anymore.
"That's a good feeling!" Old Madam Zheng was so happy that her eyebrows and eyes were full of joy, as if she had already held her shapeless great-grandson in her arms at this moment. In fact, the uncle of the Zheng family has already become a grandfather, and their family already has a great-grandson, which is really not uncommon. However, the Zheng family is the only pearl in the palm of the second elder, and naturally her children also benefit, and they are more liked by her mother's family.
Mrs. Zheng looked at Xia Chu, who was calm as if she was an adult, and remembered that she was still a child, and told her about this kind of pregnant woman...... Why didn't she even think it was weird?
The daughter followed her son-in-law to Jiangyin, but left her two children in the capital. Xia Yi grew up under the watchful eyes of Mr. Xia himself, although he was too square and had some solid eyes, he was not a fool who loved to suffer, and there was a kind of cunning of a young man under his honest appearance, which was just ordinary and hidden.
And the beginning of summer...... How good was it to take her with you in the first place?
Don't say that Zheng can't take care of it as an excuse, she doesn't believe it! The first girl is so obedient and sensible, she won't get the slightest trouble, what can she bother?
It's nothing more than that she suffered a sin when she gave birth, and that stupid girl has had a smooth life all her life, but she has suffered a lot on this, and she doesn't want to see her own daughter come - is she stupid? The daughter who finally got it didn't want to be by her side, so she even pushed it out! Don't think she doesn't know, if she doesn't get close to her, if it weren't for the negligence of her mother, how could she be like this?
It's the nature of children to be their own parents!
But her daughter is spoiled by herself, so she can only swallow this bitter fruit by herself.
Yes, among the grandchildren and granddaughters, Mrs. Zheng's favorite is the beginning of summer.
She didn't know that as a person who was born to know, Xia Chuchu's heart had already been decided, and she couldn't make such an affectionate and intimate mother-daughter gesture when she was a child, and the Zheng family had some knots in her heart, but the relationship between the two couldn't be made up.
I can't say who did it wrong, I can only say that creation just makes people.
At the beginning of the summer, the relationship is not thin, and both lives are grandparents and parents, and sisters and brothers are full. Gou is rich and noble, it is difficult to have both, and she has already seen through the world.
She doesn't want much, but she is healthy, her family is completely ill, and everything at home is worry-free.
**
From Lingxian to Weishan, there are about dozens of miles of road, it takes half a day to take a carriage, and there are many women on the car, the road is slower, and when you arrive at the hot spring village bought by your uncle Zheng Yun at the beginning of summer, noon time has passed.
There were refreshments on the carriage, and the ladies always had something to cushion their stomachs, but each family might not prepare these, so Mrs. Zheng sent people to send some everywhere, regardless of whether there was or not, it could not make people hungry, then it was not a friendship, but a feud.
However, those men who had to ride horses to see the scenery along the way had suffered enough, and their hungry chests were not close to their backs, but they could ride horses for several hours in a row, and they were not generals who led troops to fight. As soon as he arrived at Zhuangzi, Zheng Yun instructed people to prepare tea and rice, but fortunately, Zhuangtou knew early in the morning that the main family was going to come to Chongyang, and prepared all kinds of food early.
After filling their stomachs and resting for noon, they each had their spirits again, and they came to the foot of Weishan.
Mrs. Zheng was already very tired from driving all the way, and her body was already easily tired, so she rested in the Zhuangzi and sent the beginning of summer to play.
At the beginning of summer, since they had already come, there was no reason to still nest in the house, so they went up the mountain with their cousins, talking and laughing.
Ascending to the heights was originally a folk custom, and later evolved into the preference of literati and scholars, and was crowned with many good intentions such as being able to strengthen the body and dispel all kinds of diseases, which is also popular nowadays.
Zheng Yunxu has considered the physical strength of the female dependents, so this Weishan is not very high, and the terrain is gentle, but after all, it is a mountain road, and finally there are many people who ask the sedan chair man to carry the bamboo sedan chair up.
It's not just women's dependents.
Because it is a festival, it is not restricted to the separation of men and women. This small hill is separated, and the distance is limited, so it's better to be like this, just have a heart.
At the beginning of the summer, her physical strength was good, and among the sisters, only she and her eldest cousin Zheng Rou came up step by step.
Zheng Rou just gritted her teeth and insisted, looking at the lively appearance of the little cousin next to her, she was embarrassed to follow the sisters to make a bamboo sedan chair, and when she reached the top, she was already out of breath and her cheeks were crimson.
"Big sister is amazing!" Xia Chu really praised. Zheng Rou is indeed very good to be able to stick to it, you know, many adults can't come up! Even on the men's side, there are several people who sit in a bamboo sedan chair!
"Huhu...... I...... Whew, cousin ...... "Zheng Rou was out of breath when she was tired, and she couldn't say anything."
Xia Chu magically understood what she wanted to say, so he smiled and said, "You can't compare with me!" I've been practicing martial arts for a year, and my body is naturally much stronger than yours. ”
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and after the uncle Zheng Yun knew about it, he invited his own girl to ride and shoot a master to strengthen her body.
That's for later, so let's not show it for the time being.
Zheng Rou was relieved under the support of the maid, and looked at her little cousin with admiration.
How can this physical strength be a good word?
"If you want me to say, sisters had better exercise more often, look at me this year, there are no minor problems, isn't it much better than taking medicine?" Xia Chu smiled, looked at the top of the mountain not far away and sighed: "Rest quickly, let's enjoy the scenery later, I see a large flower field planted at the foot of the mountain, I think it must be a beautiful scenery." It's a pity that we can't go to the heights, but we are a little disappointed by the mountain scenery. ”
"Haha, I love to hear my niece." There was a burst of rough laughter suddenly, and at the beginning of Xia and Zheng Rou, they subconsciously turned around and saw that it was the third uncle Zheng Qi.
Zheng Qi is a concubine, upright and in the prime of life, when he is in the prime of life. He is the only one in the Zheng family who does not like business and loves to practice martial arts, and he usually makes friends with a martial artist, and his biggest wish is to open a dart game and go south and north.
It's a pity that the family doesn't allow it.
Others are also strong, tiger-backed bear-waisted, and they look very strong. Therefore, even if he followed his brothers to do business, he didn't look like a businessman, but like a thug.
He is also self-aware, knowing that he can't do business by himself, so he only thinks of himself as a follower.
I can't say it, his tendons and flesh are quite bluffing.
"Third uncle." Xia Chu hurriedly made a blessing ceremony, and Zheng Rou also followed and called, "Third uncle." ”
Zheng Qi waved his hand and said, "It's all out, it's all my own family, so don't pay attention to these false courtesies." ”
"Etiquette should not be abolished." Xia Chu smiled, she saw a lot of people in all kinds of ways, and after a long time, she preferred those simple-minded martial artists. Xu is because he has too many things on his mind, and he always turns and turns a thousand times, so he looks a little angry.
"Come on!" Zheng Qi said nonchalantly, and a hint of narrowness flashed in his eyes: "Does my niece want to see the panorama?" ”
Xia Chu was stunned, but he didn't know what he meant, and after only hesitating for a moment, he nodded.
"The third uncle will take you to see it!"
Zheng Qi smiled heartily, and suddenly stepped forward and lifted Xia Chu up.
It was really raised, and it sat directly on his broad shoulders!
Xia Chu was shocked, but he just screamed in a low voice, and subconsciously grabbed his hair bun to stabilize his body!
"Third uncle!" Zheng Rou also exclaimed!
"Let go, your hair is going to be pulled off!" Zheng Qi's scalp hurt when she grabbed it, and he hurriedly said.
Xia Chu hurriedly let go of his hand when he heard this, only to find that he was holding it very steadily, and he didn't shake it at all, and he was immediately relieved.
After getting used to the initial dizziness, the gusts of mountain breeze blowing from the heights turned out to be a different kind of comfort.
She had never done anything out of the ordinary in her two lives, but she felt so happy that she couldn't say anything about coming down.
But Zheng Rou was anxious: "Third uncle, let your cousin down, what kind of system is this?" ”
"Don't worry, big girl, you see that your niece is comfortable!" Where did Zheng Qi listen to her? Spread the girl and ran: "I'll take her for a walk, and I'll make sure that not a single hair falls out for a while!" ”
Zheng Rou's eyes widened as she watched her third uncle put his cousin on his shoulder, the soles of his feet were like the wind, and he ran away without a figure!
She stomped her feet hatefully, and it was not good to go to her father to complain at this time.
But she didn't know that the men were all looking at it!
The mountain is so big, not far away, Zheng Qi, who is tall and tall, arches a thin little girl on his shoulders, and he is not lame, how can he not see it?
It's just that he knows that he is measured, and he won't mess around too much, so it's up to him to go!
Zheng Yun gave the subordinates beside him a look, and two small servants quickly chased after him.
A string of crisp laughter like silver bells suddenly sounded in the mountains, and the laughter made people can't help but hook the corners of their mouths!
Xia Chu never imagined that he would be able to be so free and free one day, not minding the eyes of others, not caring about the constraints of the world, this feeling is really good.
Unconsciously, even she relaxed her mind, didn't think about anything, just felt the joy of the spring breeze at this moment, and felt the excitement that she had never felt before!
"Here we are." Zheng Qi carried Xia Chu to the top of the mountain, but teased: "Looking thin and thin, I don't want you to be very heavy!" It's not nonsense to think about practicing martial arts. ”
Zheng Qi is good at martial arts himself, how can he not see that Xia Chu's physical strength is far stronger than that of ordinary people? It's just that she has thin arms and thin legs, which is not quite the same as the daughters of several martial arts families he has seen, so he is a little unbelievable.
But this carry, the weight of the heavy hand is clearly not what a little girl like her should have, but I believe it in my heart.
At the beginning of the summer, he didn't have the time to take care of her.
She was shocked by the scenery in front of her, the vast field of flowers of various colors under the mountain, because of the distance, it was long time clear what flowers were, but in front of her paved a colorful landscape painting, the color blocks of distinct colors one after another, but like a thick ink and heavy color, straight into the eye!
The farms dotted among them are only the size of a finger, and occasionally you can see one or two farmers walking quietly like ants, and they are the people in front of them, at this moment there are people making tea, some people tasting tea, some people playing chess, some people playing, and the scenes are clear and distinct.
It will be at the top of the mountain, and you can see the mountains at a glance!
It's as if the world can be gathered in my heart. It's as if the world is in the palm of your hand.
Even though Weishan is not very high and steep, but at the highest point of this mountain, it is sitting on the shoulders of his uncle, but at the beginning of summer, he was severely amazed by this scenery!
Looking up, there are only a few faint clouds floating in the sky, and the bright sun does not feel hot when it shines on the body.
"After living for so many years, I didn't know that there was still such a scenery in the world."
She muttered to herself, but Zheng Qi laughed: "How old are you, and how many landscapes have you seen?" There are so many places you haven't been! It's nothing at all! ”
No...... That's different.
She once sacrificed to Wutai Mountain with the emperor, she once went to Emei alone to worship the Buddha, she also toured the south, and also looked north.
At that time, her heart was bound.
And now she is free! (To be continued.) )
