Chapter X
It was late at night.
Jiang Xuan, who had been nervous all day, had already rested, lying on the inside of the cot and sleeping soundly, her quiet eyebrows frowned, turned over, waved her fists, and shouted: "Sister, hit her!" ”
The bar smacked his mouth and muttered about his dreams again.
Ah Yin looked back, got up and tucked the quilt for her, and when she was about to withdraw her hand, she opened her eyes in a daze, and shouted in a daze: "Sister? ”
Ah Yin touched her head and said gently, "Sister is here, go to sleep." ”
Jiang Xuan closed his eyes again with peace of mind.
There is a small copper lamp on the table, the light is dim, but it also clearly illuminates the neatly arranged nuclear carvings on the table, different sizes, different shapes, a total of ten. Since she was eight years old, every birthday, her grandfather gave her a nuclear carving, all of which are carved in great detail, with mountains and rivers, and the magic of nature is incisive.
She has always loved it, and when she has free time, she plays with it, and several of the nucleus carvings have taken on a beautiful dark red color under her play.
After the death of her grandfather Xian two years ago, she would take out these ten nuclear sculptures as a memory when she missed her grandfather.
Ah Yin sighed softly and said in a low voice, "Grandfather protects his granddaughter too well. ”
Today, she fought with Luo Jiao, and she really gained a lot. Grandfather used to tell her about the rivers and lakes, talking about martial arts, and in a few words, he depicted a wanton and chic rivers and lakes.
The chivalrous scenery is beautiful, and he is frank and open.
She has always believed that nuclear carving skills are like martial arts scholars, who can learn from each other and compare, but there is no deception, and everyone speaks with real skills.
But today, she saw a new nuclear carving technician.
Ah Yin was not disappointed, the general trend is the same, and he can only adapt to it at present.
She stroked the nuclear carving and said in a low voice: "There is a long way to go, and grandfather and granddaughter still have a lot to learn." At this time, Ah Yin's heart was full of nuclear eagles, and the Lang Jun who once occupied a corner of her heart was no longer insignificant.
This little half-moon has broadened her horizons and she has seen a new world.
At this moment, Lang Jun, who was thrown out of his heart by Ah Yin, was angry in the room, and with a sweep of his palm, the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, teapot and teacup on the bookcase all fell to the ground, making a huge noise.
The little guy outside the door was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, and he didn't dare to go in, so he could only hurriedly ask another little guy who was guarding the door to inform Madame.
The little guy made a bitter face, broke his fingers and counted it, it was the eighth time of this month, and it was also the twelfth day that his Xiaolang was imprisoned. After Mr. Xie brought back the bride price on that day, Mrs. ruthlessly locked Xiaolang in the study.
After a short time, Mrs. Xie hurried over.
As soon as the door opened, Mrs. Xie covered her heart and shouted, "Son, why are you doing this? The little girl hung her head silently, and began to break her fingers again in her heart, and this kind of drama was also the twelfth time this month.
Mrs. Xie's eyes were red, and she said: "It doesn't matter if you drop something, don't be angry with yourself, you are your mother's heart, and your mother can't wait to give you the best things in the world, how can she do things that are not good for you?" Do you really want to break your mother's heart for an outsider? My mother gave birth to you in October, and when I gave birth to you, it was cold and freezing, and because of dystocia, I burned the root of the disease for these years, but my mother felt that it didn't matter, as long as my son was safe and healthy. ”
Mrs. Xie wiped her tears again.
Xie Shaohuai was moved, and his lips moved slightly. Mrs. Xie instructed the little servant again: "What are you doing there, don't you hurry up and clean up the ground, if the debris is tied to Xiaolang, you can all take the board." ”
Mrs. Xie sighed again: "Son, my mother knows that you are unwilling in your heart, but the Yin family is so good that it is all broken." How can we, Xie Mansion, tolerate such a girl? If you say it, doesn't it make people laugh? ”
Xie Shaohuai said with a straight face: "I don't like Luo Jiao." ”
"The wife married back for posing, and I didn't like it. All you have to do is marry back. Mrs. Xie said earnestly: "Son, if Luo Jiao really couldn't even enter our house two years ago, but now the world has changed, Yongping likes nuclear carving, and Luo Jiao's eldest brother Luo Yuan is favored by the king." Your father's career has stagnated, if Luo Yuan can say a few kind words in front of the king, your father will definitely be able to leave Gongcheng. ”
Xie Shaohuai was still not very happy, but he couldn't think of any reason to refute it.
Mrs. Xie also knew that it was almost time to relax, and said softly: "If you marry Luo Jiao, your mother will not object to you taking the Yin family as a concubine, but you don't need to think about it anymore as a wife, and use a sedan chair to carry it in from the side door." ”
"It's a deal."
Xie Shaohuai was afraid.
There is a sentence that my mother is right, no matter what, marry back first. Although he is a little wronged by Ah Yin, he will definitely be doubly good to Ah Yin after getting married!
In fact, Mrs. Xie still looks down on the Luo family in her heart, their family is a scholar, and the Luo family's rich man is not from a different background, if it weren't for the prevalence of nuclear carving, Luo Yuan is full of luck, how could Luo Jiao enter the door of their Xie family? Serving people with things is, in the final analysis, just craftsmen.
Thinking of the rumors in the market, the three girls of the Naluo family were high-flying and domineering, relying on their brother's prestige to run rampant in Gongcheng, and often showed their heads, without the slightest reserve as a daughter's family, Mrs. Xie was disgusted from the bottom of her heart.
But their Xie family needs this opportunity, so they can only endure it for the time being.
Her lord has been silent in officialdom for too long.
After Luo Jiao returned home, her face was still blue and white. Today, she fought with Ah Yin, although she got a tie and her reputation was not unpleasant, but it was obviously Ah Yin who suppressed her. Thinking of this, Luo Jiao's mood was not very good, and she didn't like anything.
When the maid brought her tea, she accidentally shook it, and was slapped by Luo Jiao.
The maid trembled and knelt down and begged for mercy.
Luo Jiao's mood was even worse, and when she kicked it, a heavy drink suddenly sounded outside the room.
"Stop!"
The voice was full of anger, it was Luo Jiao's father, Luo Ya. Liang also followed. Luo Jiao felt aggrieved today, but now when she returned home, her father, who was reluctant to say anything important about her since she was a child, actually scolded her, Luo Jiao was even more aggrieved, her mouth was flattened, and she said angrily: "What's wrong with me beating someone?" Dad, you're going to hit me, aren't you? You hit! Better beat me to death. ”
Luo Ya was so angry that his hair was about to stand on end.
"You ......"
Liang hurriedly played a round and said, "Jiaojiao, your father just cares about you." Master, don't be angry, my daughter's temperament is like this, isn't it clear that you and I are parents? Liang said to the maid again, "You all go down." ”
As if the maid had been granted amnesty, she hurriedly withdrew.
As soon as the door closed, there were only three people left in the room. Luo Jiao twisted her head and said nothing. When you are a father and mother, you can't fight your children in the end. Luo Ya sighed and said, "On weekdays, if you want to fight or kill the people in the house, my father doesn't care about you." After all, it is the subordinate who sold the death deed in the house, and it is nothing to die one. But Ma Dahe is not a subordinate in our house, he is an outsider! You abolished his hand for no reason, we are the first to lose, if it weren't for Xie County's order and our upcoming in-laws, which blocked the matter, how could you sit here and beat and scold people now? ”
Luo Jiao disagreed, and said: "The eldest brother is a celebrity in front of the prime minister, Ma Dahe is just a street vendor, and his family has no wealth or power, I just said that his hand was abolished, and he didn't take his life, how can he get me?" ”
When Luo Ya heard this, he was so angry that his heart hurt.
"Others only say that your eldest brother is flying and prosperous, and he has a great reliance in Yongping, but do you know what kind of place Yongping is, your eldest brother is alone, and others can not know the pain and hardship in his heart, but you can't not know."
Luo Jiao said: "I know, that's why I am willing to marry the Xie family." I don't go to a place like Yongping, everyone is nobler than me, isn't it good for me to be the head snake in Gongcheng? ”
Liang hurriedly said softly: "Jiaojiao, are you going to make your father angry?" ”
Luo Jiaocai said reluctantly: "Okay, okay, my father and mother have my own measure, and I will be more restrained in the future, and I will definitely not cause trouble for my brother." Having said that, Luo Jiao still didn't think so, she only felt that her father and mother had too many concerns, the eldest brother was talented, and he was good at carving, so Prime Minister Wang Cheng would definitely treat the eldest brother as a treasure, and maybe he could marry a princess as a concubine in the future. She is not worried about Ma Dahe now, but she is just a small person, and she is more worried about Ah Yin who can't find out her head, her detective Arhat is vivid, and in a few years, she may be able to surpass the eldest brother and become an obstacle to their Luo family.
In just one night, several people had their own thoughts.
Two days later, Ah Yin met Dongyun, the maid of the family, at the foot of Cangshan Mountain. Dongyun came over in a carriage, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, he first saluted Ah Yin with a smile, and when he saw Ah Yin's smooth face, he was even more overjoyed.
"Big girl, your chickenpox is cured? It was really gratifying, and the lady asked the slave and maid to come and visit the girl, saying that it was cold outside after all, and it was not suitable for recuperation, and she wanted to take the girl back. When the old lady saw that the girl was cured, she would be happy from the bottom of her heart. Look, big girl, the lady was afraid that the girl would have a bumpy ride, so she hired a carriage. ”
In the end, it is a family, Ah Yin heard that her mother was worried about her, and she was still happy in her heart.
She asked, "How is my mother doing?" ”
Dong Yun said: "Madame eats well, sleeps well, and her body is good." ”
"You have to take care of your mother," she added, pretending to be inadvertent, "the earrings on your ears are so beautiful." Dongyun said happily: "It was given to me by Madame." ”
Ah Yin said with a smile: "What are the happy events at home recently?" ”
"The Xie family has sent the bride price, and the day when the eldest girl got married has also been chosen, and on the tenth day of the next month, the eldest girl will marry a wife." Dong Yun said three sentences in a row, and his tone became more and more brisk: "Congratulations to the eldest girl, you can finally see the moon when the clouds open." ”
Ah Yin suddenly felt a basin of cold water splashing down from his head, and even Fang Cai's happy mood froze.
