A turmoil finally dissipated, and there was a lot of discussion in Hulutun, and the Chen family's Hongchang dyeing workshop business became more and more prosperous in the discussion. With the help of Xi'en, the Heshun Dyeing Workshop also recovered some vitality, and Mrs. Chen and the shopkeeper Chen settled down.

On this day, Xien arranged the things in the shop, and his father and Yanrui

Say hello, "I'll go see Uncle Niu, the weather is getting warmer, and I will send the thin clothes sewn for him and Aunt Niu at night." ”

Uncle Niu has always been a concern in Xi'en's heart, and she has been looking forward to seeing him.

Mrs. Chen looked at Xi'en kindly, "Your old Uncle Niu is happy to see you, it's hard for your filial piety, let your brother accompany you, there will be a response on the way." ”

Xi'en picked up her baggage, "Mother forgot what her daughter used to do?" Walking the streets and alleys, what kind of places have you never been, and how many people have seen the cold and warm in the world. Xi En paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about the past days, and then sighed softly, "Now that our business is good, let Brother Yanrui help my father be more busy, I'll go back quickly, but I'll be back tomorrow." After speaking, he patiently comforted Mrs. Chen, and then walked out quickly.

"This kid has a score in his heart, don't worry about useless things." Shopkeeper Chen came in from outside and watched Xi'en go out.

Mrs. Chen was still a little uneasy, and glared at her husband, "No matter how she is, she is still a girl's family, and you are so big-hearted?" ”

Shopkeeper Chen saw that the cannon battle was about to be lit, and immediately stopped answering.

"Besides, now we are not the gray-faced, ragged, and male and female little called Hanako." When Mrs. Chen saw that her husband ignored her, she still couldn't help but muttered to herself.

"It's not, I didn't expect that it's only been more than half a year, and I'm calling Hanako to become a stunning girl." Shopkeeper Chen habitually took the abacus on the long table and fiddled with it a few times.

"Where is that speech and behavior like an uneducated Huazi, let me say, the eldest daughters and daughters-in-law in our gourd tun, and the daughters of those big families in the county are not as good as our style of acting." Mrs. Chen did not hesitate to praise her.

This time, Shopkeeper Chen did not deny it, but nodded slightly.

"Where are you going?" Shopkeeper Li waited outside the arch, waiting for his son to come out.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Molin showed his head, he was stopped by his father with a gloomy face, although the voice was not loud, but it was very deterrent, and the kid was stunned and didn't dare to move.

"The child went to the county to discuss with a few literary friends about going to Beijing in the autumn to catch the exam." Li Molin lowered his eyebrows and was very obedient.

"Huh?" Shopkeeper Li moved his eyebrows, "Who are the people, let's hear about them." "Ma Jun, the son of the county lord, and Wang Boxian, the nephew of Wang Yuanwai, and."

"Bastard! Although the surname Ma is the son of the county lord, but in terms of his style of acting, it is better for you to be less contaminated, which is really insulting. "Master Li is a little bit literate, and he looks down on Ma Jun's behavior.

Li Molin smacked his mouth, wanted to say but didn't dare to say it, so he had to stand honestly.

"No matter how Ma Jun is, that's also the son of the county master's family, we can't afford to be offended. At most, it is enough to have less contact in the future, but today this appointment is to go. Mrs. Chen appeared in time to help her son out of the siege.

On a May day, the child's face changes when it is said. Xi En looked up, and saw the clouds rolling in the sky, piled up, squeezed, twisted, and twisted. Lightning shone brightly, shining through the clouds from time to time. The thunder roared, one after another, not loud, not thunder, but deep and powerful.

"Isn't the god angry?" Xi En said a silent sentence in her heart, and hurriedly urged the driver who was driving the car to find a place to shelter from the rain.

"You say that this Moa Si lacks virtue and virtue, obviously he is fifty out of seventy, an old bone, and he lied that he was fifty-seven, and deceived a twenty-five little lady to get started, how can he bear it!"

A small tea shed placed at a fork in the road, a few passers-by were stopped by the rain, and they were chatting their teeth idly.

"Do iniquity, and see how he dies." The man next to him chimed in.

After a while, when they saw Xi'en and the coachman come in, everyone stopped talking and sat down to drink tea.

"Shopkeeper, how far is it from Zhengde Restaurant?" Xi'en picked up the water cup and moistened her throat, she didn't **, but she couldn't occupy other people's places to shelter from the rain in vain, so she could only spend two pennies to make a pot of tea.

The shopkeeper was dozing, Xiao Er hurriedly stepped forward to talk, he listened to Xi'en's question, and his face was slightly embarrassed.

"It's a bad luck today, there are so many restaurants in the city, why do you want to choose 'Zhengde Restaurant', in my opinion."

He was about to continue, and Xi'en was shocked, "The restaurant is closed?" ”

Xiao Er said with a smile, "How can it be, that time-honored brand, business is good, this is not another big business." ”

Xi En nodded reassuringly, "That's good, you just said you wouldn't let me go, why?" ”

At this question, Xiao Er immediately became interested, and glanced at the lively few people at the table next to him, "Now inside and outside Fengze County, no one knows, and no one knows." The richest man in Fengze County, Mo Si Mo, married a concubine, Zhengde Restaurant was chartered for three days, today is the first day, do you say you want to go for nothing? ”

"Oh?" Xi En nodded to Xiao Er, which was regarded as thanks.

"Young Master Li is also here, hurry inside to take shelter from the rain." Lao Tian, who was driving the car, stood up and greeted a young man who ran in from outside.

Lao Tian is a sports car in Hulu Tun, and there are no people in the Tunzi, old and young, women and children, who he doesn't know.

Li Molin wiped the rain from his face, and didn't look at Lao Tian, but saw at a glance that he was sitting at the table looking at his kindness.

"This is Sister Xi'en, right? You and I are next to each other, I am Li Molin who dyes his hair with Shun, fortunately, fortunately! ”

Xien had already heard that the eldest young master of the Li family was idle, ignorant of world affairs, and the most frivolous. But today, I saw that although his clothes were wet by the rain, he was slightly embarrassed. But there is a heroic spirit between the eyebrows, and the speech and demeanor are quite decent. bowed his head slightly, and said politely, "Xi'en has seen Li Gongzi." ”

"What kind of son is not a son, how old am I to be you, you can just call me eldest brother."

Xi En also did not resign, and the three of them sat down to talk for a while. It turned out that there was something wrong with Li Molin's carriage halfway, and he didn't want to delay time, so he came on foot all the way. turned out to be so, Xi'en invited him to take a car with him, which can be regarded as a favor.

There was not much to go left, Li Molin and Xi'en sat in the carriage and talked to pass the time, and before they knew it, they were almost at the gate of the city.

"Brother Li, you're late, hurry up!" A shout suddenly sounded outside the car.

Li Molin looked out the window and saw that it was Ma Jun shouting to himself, and he hurriedly asked Lao Tian to stop the car. laughed and scolded, "This horse horse is just a small poetry club, and Baba ran to the city gate to pick me up." ”

Xi'en sighed in his heart, "Ma Jun? ”

PS: Today, I suddenly heard that my old friend died violently, and I couldn't bear it and cried!
