Chapter Twenty-Six: Lang Affection and Concubinage

The person Hongxia said was sitting in the courtyard at this moment, reading a book intently. The sun shone on him, making his whole person exude an elegant and gentle temperament.

"You said him, that's Mr. Wu that my father invited to my brother, his name is Xu Qing. I heard that it was a relative of the sixth grandmother's mother's house. Wang Jing said quietly.

"Then you can help me take out the incense I have made, and I won't go in." Hongxia lowered her head and said.

The girls on the Zhuangzi hardly see any strangers, and it is normal for them to have a crush on the older boys, but it is rare that this sister still wants to avoid suspicion.

"My sister is a guest I invited, how can there be any reason to stand outside the door." Wang Jing took her hand and said.

It's also a relative, and it's nothing, but if she avoids it like this, it looks like a little family. Isn't he as good as the girl in front of him?

Hongxia thought about it, and entered the courtyard generously, and just saw Zhang's sitting and cutting vegetables, so she smiled and stepped forward to hold her hand and asked, "Does the fourth aunt want to help?" ”

Zhang shook his head with a smile, "No, it's fine all at once." ”

"I saw that my sister's incense was better than the one made in the shop on the street, so I came to ask her for some back." Hongxia said.

Zhang said: "Your sister is playing with it, you can only look for her if you can see it." ”

Wang Jing raised her hand, "My sister gave me two beautiful purses." ”

Zhang glanced at Wang Jing's hand and said with a smile: "Sister Xia'er's needlework is getting better, but don't be too tired, come over to play when you have time, your sister and I are looking forward to you coming over to play." ”

Seeing Hongxia, Zhang's thought of his sister-in-law Wang's entrustment, although he knew that he couldn't do it, he couldn't refuse too bluntly, and it would be difficult for everyone to meet in the future. Fortunately, Hongxia is a well-behaved person, and she is also relieved to play with Sister Jing.

Hongxia listened to Zhang's sincerity, and said busily: "Then I will come to disturb the fourth aunt every day." ”

Zhang put down the knife as he spoke, wiped his hand on his apron, and pointed at Xu Qingdao: "Your sixth grandmother's cousin." ”

Xu Qing put the book on the chair and stood up.

Hongxia kept a just right smile, and when she greeted him, she blushed and hung her head, urging Wang Jing to get spices.

Wang Jing let Hongxia into the house, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xu Qingzheng silently looking at Hongxia, and couldn't help but think in her heart: When ordinary people see a living person, they will always deliberately glance at it, but her cousin is different from others. But I always feel like it's too deliberate. always felt that the expressions of the two of them were clearly seen before, as if they were still interested in each other. However, she also heard what Wang asked Zhang to be a matchmaker, but she didn't know what the eldest aunt thought.

In fact, the news that Liu Chengfang invited his son to Mr. Wu quickly spread in Liu Zhangwan, and the Wang family saw Xu Qing the next day, so he said hello lightly.

But she didn't know that Xu Qing really came to Wang Jing's house for Hongxia.

The folk customs of the Great Zhou are really fierce, every February 2, March 3, July 7...... On such days, it is not uncommon for young men and women on the farm to look at each other and directly straw stacks and drill green yarn tents, even if they are families, they can also give each other bluegrass if they look at each other on this day.

Hongxia saw that Xu Qing gave her bluegrass, so she directly said, "When will you come to my house to propose?" ”

Xu Qing naturally felt that the sooner the better.

How do you think that the Xu family hasn't invited a matchmaker yet, the Wang family has been whispering in Hongxia's ear every day, "Look at your fifth aunt, how capable she is, marry someone directly to the son of the prefect's family, and return to Zhuangzi, who doesn't scold her?" ”

This fifth aunt is a legendary figure in their Haozhou Mansion, not to mention marrying high, and her stomach is also angry. Not to mention the children, the son is also angry, and the husband respects her, and it is said that she has been married for more than ten years, and there is no one else in the room except his wife.

These are all facts, Wang said it, and Hongxia listened.

Seeing that the girl was silent, Wang continued to boast, "Your cousin of the Qiao family is also very good, he is good to his mother, and he understands etiquette, every time he goes to your fourth uncle's house, there is no shelf at all, even if we go, we are very polite." Hey, how good this kid looks. After speaking, he knocked on his daughter again, "Look at Sister Jing, who is only six years old, with a sweet mouth and many eyes." Although she is not biological, look at how good your fourth uncle and fourth aunt are to her. ”

"Last time, the third aunt was still saying that the fourth aunt wanted her to be a child daughter-in-law, so she didn't have a dowry." Hongxia said.

Wang sneered, "Can your third aunt compare with your fourth aunt?" I'm afraid that your fourth aunt sold your third aunt, and your fourth aunt will have to count the money for her. Your fourth aunt is capable, and she can raise her children well, look at Sister Jing'er, when she sees the son of the prefect's family, her cousin is long and her cousin is so affectionate. As soon as people were happy, just for her birthday, the gift she sent was worth more than ten taels of silver, not to mention, it was very decent. You have to be as capable as her, and your mother will wake up laughing when she dreams. ”

Hongxia couldn't cry or laugh, "Mother, Sister Jing'er recognized Qiao Chaoyang at the age of three, at her age, no matter what she does, no one cares, your daughter is thirteen this year, a few months older than others, if that's the case, don't be laughed to death?" ”

This girl! Why don't you understand!

Wang's head was furious, "It's really stupid!" That's the young master of the prefect's family, he goes to your fourth aunt's house every year, and you look good, but whenever he comes, he goes to your fourth aunt's house more often, and he comes and goes, isn't it familiar? When your fifth aunt comes back, you go and coax her to be happy again, won't this be half the story? I'll talk to your fourth aunt again, won't the position of the young grandmother of the prefect's family fall on you? ”

Hongxia already has someone in her heart, where can she listen to this, but she has always had things in her heart, so she just sat there silently and listened to Wang's chatter, but when Wang's was not paying attention, she told Xu Qing.

Xu Qing had nothing to do at this time, but fortunately, Liu Yonglu's brothers found him that night and asked him if he was willing to take on a business...... And he met Liu Chengfang through "business", but after the matter was completed, he proposed not to have money, but to continue to help him "work".

Liu Chengfang is also a human spirit, how can he believe this, he had to interrogate him carefully, and Xu Qing made a real move. Liu Chengfang felt that Xu Qing was outstanding in talent and martial arts, and he was a rare talent, but now that the world was chaotic, his father-in-law couldn't teach his son anything, so it was better to let him come back to learn martial arts. As for learning, he is also from a good background, and it is not a problem to teach him.

Xu Qing saw his sweetheart, his heart was very happy, and when he saw that Zhang took a pickaxe, he wanted to help.

Zhang Shi hurriedly said: "No, no, you are an invited gentleman, how can you do such rough work, I will plant two peach trees outside the door." ”

Xu Qing said with a smile: "Cousin, don't laugh at me, I'm used to moving people, I can't sit still, Brother An hasn't come back, I'm bored to sit alone." ”

Zhang said: "Your cousin has already gone to pick him up." ”

Before the words fell, I only heard someone say: "Mother, I'm back!" ”

Zhang looked at it, but it was Liu Yongan who came back, and couldn't help asking, "Did you see your father on the road?" ”

Liu Yongan said: "I came back for this matter, and Cousin Chaoyang told me that my father is in trouble this time!" Let me come back and tell you. ”
