Chapter 70: Great Blessing
Although Zhou Xiuying said that she didn't dislike the ugliness of her new sister-in-law, when it was time to eat at night, looking at Qi Jinzhi sitting at the table, Zhou Xiuying still couldn't hold back: "Sister-in-law is taller in the end, and she eats a lot, you alone can afford the amount of food we have as a family." ”
Qi Jinzhi looked at Zhou Hongwen and saw that he didn't squeak, so he put the rice bowl up: "I'll go see my father." ”
She turned around and entered the inner room, Zhou Shuying glared at Zhou Xiuying: "Eat your food, you have your business anywhere." ”
Zhou Xiuying stretched out her hand and pointed to the back room: "Sister, this, I really can't help it, why does it look like this, where is this ......?"
"Xiuying." Zhou Hongwen pulled down his face and slapped his chopsticks on the table: "I'll also go to see my father." ”
As soon as Zhou Hongwen left, Zhou Shuying stretched out her hand and pointed at Zhou Xiuying's forehead: "You, tell me what is good about you, this pro-Chengdu has become a person, she has already become a member of our family, can you still regret it, you just can't get used to it, you have to endure it, don't end up making it unpleasant inside and out, and you won't be able to enter your mother's house if you marry in the future." ”
"She dares." Zhou Xiuying glared: "My brother doesn't dislike me, in the future, she will not let me in the door to see me and scold her." ”
Zhou Shuying smiled bitterly, but she didn't persuade again.
When Zhou Hongwen entered the back room, he saw Qi Jinzhi helping the second elder of the Zhou family to get up, and took the rolled quilt for them to lean behind him, whispering with a smile on his face, and seeing that his parents were also smiling, Zhou Hongwen was relieved.
I heard Zhou's mother smile and said: "Jin Zhi, it's not too early, don't stay with us here, go to your house to rest." ”
Father Zhou also said: "Wen Xiaozi came to pick you up, let's go, have a good rest today, don't get up so early tomorrow morning, just ask your sister and sister to cook." ”
Qi Jinzhi pursed his lips and smiled: "I listen to my father, then I'll leave first, and I'll say hello to the second elder tomorrow morning." ”
Zhou Hongwen listened to Qi Jinzhi and looked at her posture again. knew that Qi Jinzhi must be a filial and kind person, and the original dislike and awkwardness have gone a little, and he said in his heart, as long as the person is good. It's good for your parents, and you can't ask for anything more than anyone else.
Qi Jinzhi looked back at Zhou Hongwen: "Xianggong has something to tell my father, then I'll go back to the house first." ”
Zhou Hongwen smiled: "You go back first, I'll stay for a while before leaving." ”
Qi Jinzhi really left quickly, and Zhou Hongwen sat on the edge of the bed and tucked the quilt for Zhou's father: "Dad." This daughter-in-law ......"
Father Zhou waved his hand: "The daughter-in-law is from our old Zhou family when she enters the door, you can't dislike it, let me know that you dislike your daughter-in-law and vomit with her, see if I don't break your legs." ”
"I'm not disgusted." Zhou Hongwen couldn't cry or laugh a little: "I dislike my own daughter-in-law, I'm afraid that my father and mother will be scared." ”
Zhou's mother listened to it funny: "When we have become something, we have lived for almost a lifetime and have never seen anything, she is just different from ordinary people, if we are scared, it will be considered to be such a big age for nothing." ”
Zhou Hongwen breathed a sigh of relief and said a few words to Zhou's father. and said to Zhou's mother: "My sister is awkward, she gave Jin Zhi no face just now, my mother has time to talk about her, they are all a family, don't make you quarrel with me all day long." ”
"Done." Mother Zhou's face was a little gloomy: "This dead girl, she doesn't know what her surname is if she doesn't count it for a day, Brother Wen, don't worry, my mother keeps her." ”
"Then I'll go back first." Zhou Hongwen waited for Zhou's father and Zhou's mother to drink some water before leaving.
When he entered the house, he saw that Qi Jinzhi had already made the water for washing his face and feet, and the house had been cleaned up. The floor was swept clean, the dates and other things sprinkled on the bed were also received on the table, the quilt was also put down, and she was sitting at the table and taking off the hairpin ring on her head in front of the bronze mirror.
Zhou Hongwen walked over a few steps. Qi Jinzhi hurriedly stood up: "Come back, you wash your face first, I'll wash my hair and let's sleep." ”
Zhou Hongwen nodded, moved to the side to wash his face and feet, Qi Jinzhi got some water to wash his head and face, and wrung out and wiped his long and black hair with a big handkerchief. He wrapped it in a cotton cloth with blue flowers on a white background, and then he took off his coat and prepared to go to bed.
"Don't take what Xiuying said just now, don't take it to heart."
Qi Jinzhi sat on the edge of the bed, heard Zhou Hongwen say this, raised his head and smiled: "She is a child, I don't know her like her." ”
After saying this, Qi Jinzhi remembered one thing again: "I heard the fourth child say that Xianggong can only learn well, if it is a scientific examination, it will definitely be successful, I think that in the future, I will take care of the family with my eldest sister and younger sister, and Xianggong will still study hard, this time when I came, I deliberately added a lot of books to the dowry, all of which are used in the scientific examination. ”
"It's so hard for you." Zhou Hongwen is a person who loves to read and wants to be motivated, hearing Qi Jinzhi say this, he was also happy in his heart, and he also gave Qi Jinzhi a salute.
Qi Jinzhi pursed his lips and smiled: "I have sorted out all those books and put them in the cabinet, and I will clean them up for you tomorrow." ”
Zhou Hongwen's eyes widened slightly: "You have also read books?" ”
"Isn't that a joke?" Qi Jinzhi burst out laughing: "Our Qi family is literate regardless of the girls and boys, I have been enlightened since I was three years old, and now I have been reading books for more than 20 years, that is, our Great Zhou Dynasty does not allow women's imperial examinations, otherwise, I will also take the exam to be a showman." ”
Zhou Hongwen really didn't think that Qi Jinzhi, a rural peasant girl, had read poetry and books seriously, and was surprised and happy when he arrived: "This dare is good, I will have someone to talk about in the future, the lady has read books for so many years, she must be very knowledgeable, and we can discuss any problems I encounter in reading in the future." ”
"Okay." Qi Jinzhi smiled and lowered his head slightly: "Don't talk about reading, I'm tired of a day, let's rest early." ”
"Oops." Zhou Hongwen hurriedly agreed, took off his shoes and went to bed, blew the lamp, and when he took Qi Jinzhi into his arms, he felt that there was something different.
Nowadays, the popular beauties of the Great Zhou Dynasty are all the kind of thin and weak, and they are even more popular and morbid beauty, but all the beauties who are recognized must be thin and thin, and their posture is also a little mediocre, only the face is very good-looking, this kind of woman looks really good, but if she really hugs and does such a thing, it is nothing more than that.
But Qi Jinzhi is different, she is tall, she is not fat, she has two long legs, a large chest and a thin waist, a uniform texture, and good skin elasticity. It feels much better than those beautiful little ladies.
After this night, Zhou Hongwen can be regarded as knowing the beauty of Qi Jinzhi, an ugly girl in the eyes of others, plus he has been a positive husband and wife in the end, and he has maintained Qi Jinzhi a little bit in his selfish heart. When he got up early, he even gave Qi Jinzhi a wash of water, and when Qi Jinzhi cleaned up, he went to the main room with her to greet his parents.
Qi Jinzhi talked and laughed with Zhou's father and Zhou's mother for half a morning, and waited until the day was about to go to midday. Qi Jinzhi changed into coarse cloth clothes and found Zhou Hongwen, who was reading: "Xianggong, I'll go for a walk in the mountains and come back in the evening." ”
"To the mountains?" Zhou Hongwen immediately stood up in shock: "What are you doing on the mountain?" ”
Qi Jinzhi grinned: "I have to go back to the door tomorrow, whatever, we all have to bring some things, my dowry is all given by my mother, she also knows what it is, and it is not easy to use it as a return gift, our family is still fighting a famine, and there is nothing to take, I just want to go up the mountain to take some wild things." Xianggong exchanged some money and bought things as gifts. ”
"I'll go with you." Zhou Hongwen: How can a big man call Qi Jinzhi, a woman, a Taoist family, who went to the mountains to hunt on the second day of their wedding.
He said as he walked out: "Look at me, I have forgotten such an important matter, I often go to the mountain, I am very familiar with it, I will take you there, and by the way, I will collect some medicine." ”
Qi Jinzhi was happy in her heart, so she naturally wouldn't refuse, and went back to the house to get a machete, which she put in the dowry herself, and brought a thick rope to talk to Zhou Shuying again. went up the mountain with Zhou Hongwen.
The two of them walked once, and when it was dark, they came back, which frightened the Zhou family.
Qi Jinzhi and Zhou Hongwen were both covered in blood, and Qi Jinzhi carried a wild boar. Zhou Hongwen carried a deer on his back, all panting.
Even Zhou Xiuying was frightened, and the little girl had tears in her eyes: "Brother, sister-in-law, this, what's wrong?" Why is there so much blood? ”
"It's fine." Qi Jinzhi smiled innocently: "That's wild boar blood, I didn't think I would have such good luck today." Encountering such a big guy, and hunted a deer, hurry, help me get it into the kitchen, and wait for tomorrow early in the morning to hire a car to sell it into the restaurant, this time, we will definitely be able to return the famine, and the family will not worry about anything in the future. ”
The family had just carried the wild boar and the deer into the kitchen, when they heard someone outside shouting: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, can the poor Dao beg for saliva to drink?" ”
Zhou Hongwen hurriedly went out, and after a while, he brought a Taoist priest in, and the Taoist priest looked at Zhou Shuying and Zhou Xiuying who came out of the kitchen and smiled: "The female layman is good." ”
The two girls also returned the salute, and the Taoist priest said: "The poor road has been beaten by this, and the road is thirsty for a day, can you ......?"
Before he finished speaking, Qi Jinzhi came out with a bowl of warm water from the house: "Dao Chief, please drink." ”
The Taoist priest took it, thanked Qi Jinzhi first, and then didn't care about drinking water, and a pair of eyes stared directly at Qi Jinzhi's face.
Zhou Hongwen looked angry, and hid Qi Jinzhi behind him: "You Taoist priest, you don't know how to be polite." ”
The Taoist priest returned to his senses and hurriedly gave another salute: "The monk is not angry, it is really, it is really this female monk who looks good and blessed, the poor Taoist has lived for such a long time, and I have never seen anyone more blessed than the female layman, this is an excellent prosperous husband, if anyone asks the female layman to enter the door, then the house must be prosperous, full of children and grandchildren, and extremely rich." ”
"Really?" Zhou Xiuying asked in surprise: "My sister-in-law looks so good?" Then look at me. ”
The Taoist priest looked at it twice and shook his head, and then pondered for a while before saying: "It stands to reason that the female layman is handsome and beautiful, which is originally quite good, but you are impatient and mean, and it is inevitable that you will suffer some losses, but you have a good sister-in-law who can make up for it." ”
After speaking, he looked at Zhou Hongwen again: "Is the layman's family sick in bed, hey, hey, it's late, if your family asks a blessed daughter-in-law to enter the door earlier, I can't say that the old man's illness can be better, but it's a pity that it's delayed." ”
Speaking of this, the Taoist priest didn't say anything anymore, finished drinking the water, handed the bowl to Zhou Hongwen and turned around and left.
Zhou Hongwen hurriedly chased out, where could he still see the figure of the Taoist priest.
He returned home with a sigh, and Zhou Shuying hurriedly asked, "Where is the Taoist priest?" ”
Zhou Hongwen shook his head: "If you don't see it, you won't see it, how can you go so fast." ”
Zhou Shuying exclaimed: "It can't really be a Tao, if it's really like this, then the younger brother and sister are afraid that they will be blessed." ”
"As the old saying goes, ugly people have ugly blessings." Zhou Xiuying muttered, and her impression of Qi Jinzhi also changed a lot: "Otherwise, my sister-in-law will get wild boars and deer when she enters the door and returns to the mountain, and the famine we pulled down will be paid off, isn't this a blessing."
