37. How to leave a phoenix in a poor country

The gongs and drums of the Chen family are noisy, and the reeds are played in unison, what a lively pomp and circumstance.

A group of onlookers are talking about the excitement of each word, the children have just won the happy fruit, and their faces are full of sugar sticky when they eat.

"People, it's fate, Chen Yongshan couldn't eat a white-flour bun before, and he can't see it, but it's developed like this!"

"You're greedy, you had the kindness to save that little Hanako, but you are still reluctant to take a sip of hot water?!" Someone sneered at each other, and the people next to him laughed.

"That's it, three crutches, just your dim heart, you deserve to be poor."

"I'm poor, I can still eat a white flour bun, I won't tell you, our three meals today are dumplings, big meat filling, Xiao Mao, you are generous, you can eat it?" The three crutches got up proudly and dusted off the new bamboo cloth robe with his hand. Calling him a crutch is not because he has any problems with his legs and feet, but because this person has a lot of flowers and intestines, has a lively heart and eyes, and is a slang word in the countryside - crutches, he is the third in line, so he is naturally a crutches.

The person who was robbed of white was not in a hurry, "hehe" smiled, "I am not as good as you, but I should have a lottery today, a day of wine and meat waiting, Bai Xien personally sent the invitation, you are good!" Ah Mao proudly raised the invitation in his hand, and passed it in a flash, leaving everyone with his free and easy back.

"It's not just a banquet, who is rare, look at how proud you are!" The three crutches chirped, and couldn't help but inquire again, "Why did the Chen family invite him?" ”

"There is a good girl in the family, Juanzi is right in the eyes of the Chen family, maybe Ah Mao is the son-in-law of the Chen family!"

The three crutches smacked their lips, shook their heads and walked away, "Why don't I have a sister, even if it's a sister." ”

Mrs. Chen was frightened after these days, and finally fell ill, lying in bed only feeling soreness everywhere, but the doctor could not see the cause. If you are worried about Xi'en, you can't wait to accompany your mother at all times.

"Sensei spent that money in vain, my mother knows it, lying down like this is more effective than anything, and it will be fine in a few days."

"Let the doctor see it with peace of mind." Xi En sat next to her mother, and repeatedly embroidered the new patterns of her mother in her hand.

"It's lively outside, you can also go and see, what are you doing with my wife?" Mrs. Chen felt sorry for her daughter and urged her to go out in disgust.

Xien but refused, others looked at her own accommodation, in fact, she liked to accompany her mother in the house to talk and relieve boredom, very comfortable, "Today is busy, my father and eldest brother have to rest for a few days, I will find someone to take care of the things in the shop, we can't be tired, what is the meaning of earning that silver." ”

Mrs. Chen continued, "Your father has never seen such a good momentum in his life, and he can't wait to break it in half by one person, and use one day as two days." It's harder for you to let him rest than for him to work. After speaking, he smiled first, thinking about the old man humming a little song all day long, busy with his work, how many years I haven't seen him.

Xi En thought about it, but what her mother said was also reasonable, and she helped pull back the thread. And carefully appreciate the plum blossoms embroidered by the mother for herself, bright and dripping, like the real thing, the happiness in my heart arises spontaneously.

"Don't just stay with your mother, your mother can't see the world all the time, today is a play that costs a lot of money, go and listen to it, and come back to tell your mother." Although my mother doesn't understand much drama, she also likes to listen to ancient tricks when she is young, and she listens to your grandmother say "Wang Baochuan" and "Hitting the Golden Branch". ”

Xi'en had never heard that her mother still liked these, so she clapped her hands and laughed, "I only like to sew and wash when I am a mother, and now I know that you also like to be lively." I don't know how many storytellers and singing I have listened to in the past, but I have to listen to it all the time, how about I tell you a paragraph every day? ”

The two of them said lively, and Liu's mother walked in from outside with a smiling face, "Miss is laughing like this, I see that Mrs. Li's illness will be cured, and Mrs. Li from the Shun Dyeing Workshop outside said that she wanted to come in to see you, I was afraid of disturbing you, so I asked her to wait outside." ”

Xi En pondered for a moment, looked at his mother, and saw that Mrs. Chen nodded slightly, and then said, "My aunt is not an outsider, so don't hurry up and invite in." ”

"I heard that my sister was not feeling well, I was anxious for a long time, thinking about how she got sick, and I specially asked someone to bring half a catty of American ginseng, and my sister used it." Mrs. Li walked on a pair of small feet, and before the person entered the door, the sound had already come in.

Seeing that her mother tried to sit up, she didn't wait for Liu's mother to do it, so she first took a big pillow to cushion her upper body. After a busy job, Mrs. Li, who was watching, was stunned, "Sister, I can't even think of this blessing, only greedy!" ”

"This child is careful, I can't move anywhere when I'm sick, she prefers to do everything herself." Although she complained, Mrs. Chen said it was extraordinarily warm, and her eyes were full of smiles.

"I just hope that the untalented boy in the family will marry me a good daughter-in-law, so that I can also enjoy happiness." Mrs. Li's words turned just right, and there is no reason to take the Western ginseng for nothing, two taels of silver.

"I'll just look at Merlin's child, but you, your mother-in-law, still bury him, maybe in the future, I will pay homage to the prime minister, and I will raise you to be Lafayette, see if you still say that he is not?!" Mrs. Chen didn't hear the meaning of Mrs. Li's words, and only said according to her own thoughts, which made everyone in the room laugh.

Mrs. Li was also happy, brushed her dress casually, and thanked her with a smile, "If that's the case, I naturally want to thank my sister Jiyan." She pretended to be unintentional and looked inside and out, "Why don't you see Biyun's girl today?" ”

The smile on Mrs. Chen's face disappeared in an instant, and she moved her mouth without speaking.

"My sister is the most virtuous and polite person, how can I not see her today, but my aunt is late, and she went back to the backyard when she saw everyone." Xien took the tea from Liu's mother and handed it to Mrs. Li with her own hands.

"Oh, I see, the second master's tutor is strict, and everyone in Biyun is beautiful, I like it when I look at it." Mrs. Li took a sip of the water glass, unreservedly revealing her appreciation for Chen Biyun. "It's just that the second master is going back to Beijing, I don't know if Biyun's niece will also go with him this time?"

"Of course, Sister Biyun is the pearl of the second uncle's palm, where is she willing to leave her alone in this poor country."

Mrs. Li's original hope was suddenly disappointed, and she couldn't help but ask, "This was originally the second master's homeland, even here, who doesn't value her?" ”

"Having said that, but people go to high places, I don't need to say, my aunt can also guess the meaning, how prosperous and lively the capital is, and how many princes and dukes are there, why is it like the sister in front of me can only live in the backyard, and there is no one who can talk to us in this place."

Xi En's words compared Chen Biyun to a phoenix, and the phoenix must find high branches, such as sycamores, which are definitely not something that Hulutun can keep.

Mrs. Li was completely deflated, and she couldn't think of her American ginseng, so she hurriedly chatted a few words and walked out of the house.
