Chapter 219: Greeting

The second family came back in a richly decorated car, and people kept watching along the way, and when they arrived at the door of Chen's house, they were already surrounded by people.

The first to get off the car was Xue Miao, combing a double snail bun, with gold and silver in her hair, a string of colorful jewels hanging on her chest, with a bright red cloud brocade bright shirt, the whole body was magnificent, but her face was arrogant, her eyes swept obliquely over the crowd of onlookers, followed by a maid who had just grown her head, holding a handkerchief in her hand and waiting.

Everyone saw Xue Miao holding the maid's hand, and praised her mouth, she had never seen Miss Qianjin's style in this village, and Xue Miao was wearing something that was rare in the entire Baitu Town, she was not afraid of being seen, she got out of the carriage and swept towards the yard, and when she saw Mrs. Chen, she smiled and waved: "Milk!" ”

Mrs. Chen's mouth couldn't close when she smiled, and she walked out with Mr. Chen, +ansh∷uba., and saw the carriage outside and Xue Miao outside the carriage, leaving Mr. Chen, squeezing into the crowd with his little feet alone, holding Xue Miao's hand and saying, "But I'm back, your brother and your father." ”

"In the carriage." Xue Miao glanced at the carriage.

The woman standing next to the wheat straw chop grinned and said to Mrs. Chen: "Aunt Chen, I said, the magpie at the door of your house couldn't stop screaming this morning, it turned out that your grandchildren came back, but I don't know how much wealth you brought back." ”

Mrs. Chen was happy, and she didn't say anything, she took Xue Miao's hand and looked at her for a while, and saw that she was dressed no worse than the children in the big house, and her heart blossomed. The carriage was sealed all around, and Xue Miao's head was sweating after sitting all the way, and Mrs. Chen wiped her sweat with a handkerchief. Xue Miaoyi hid and raised her face at the maid behind her: "You are a dead man." ”

The maid at the back hurriedly stepped forward timidly, took out a handkerchief from the tray and wiped Xue Miao's sweat, and Xue Miao pushed the handkerchief away: "Change that piece of cloud brocade." I don't like this one. ”

The maid defended: "Just now in the carriage, you said that you liked this handkerchief the most. ”

Xue Miao's eyes straightened: "That's in the carriage, now I want that fast Yunjin, what are you talking so much about." ”

The maid had to take a new piece of cloud brocade over.

The second room of the Chen family went home, and the Chen family not only went to the room, but everyone in the third and fourth rooms of the big house stood at the gate of the courtyard to greet them. Xue Miao's voice was very loud, as if it was deliberately done to give people a look.

Chen Xuejiao naturally heard Chen Xuemiao's voice scolding the maid, for Chen Xuejiao's temperament. Chen Xuejiao is not surprised at all, she is like that kind of nouveau riche, eager to wear everything on her body. Show it to everyone.

Chen Xuejiao ignored everyone's gaze and looked arrogant, now these people are not worthy of lifting her shoes.

"Sister, why is Sister Xue Miao's temper still so big? The tears of the sister who was trained by her were about to fall. Qi Ping quietly tugged at Xue Jiao's sleeve.

The stone stood flush behind it. Subordinates like them. Playing a child to learn the rules, his net worth and life are the master's, not to mention being beaten and scolded, but since he started serving people, he has never seen such an arrogant master, reprimanding his maid in front of outsiders, and the face of the subordinate represents the face of the master, so she is not afraid of losing her dignity. It's all a family. has the same surname Chen, this young lady is not as kind as her little master. Shi stroked his forehead and was glad that he followed the big house.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, and then Chen Zichang and Chen Qilin got out of the carriage. Chen Zichang couldn't hide his smugness, and he pulled his son like a live baby, and greeted everyone one by one. Chen Xuejiao looked at Qi Lin in the crowd carefully, he was wearing a white shirt, wearing a headscarf marked by a scholar on his head, the last time he saw Qi Lin was the Spring Festival, and he saw him after eight months, I only felt that he was a little fatter than before, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were more looking forward to flying than before, perhaps because he had taken the first place, but there was still a gloom in his eyes that could not be hidden, and he couldn't find it if he didn't look carefully.

When Mrs. Chen saw her son and eldest grandson coming out of the carriage, her excited old face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and she said forward with her little feet: "The eldest grandson is back." ”

Chen Qilin stretched out his hand to hold Mrs. Chen's hand: "Milk, my grandson misses you for getting old." ”

As soon as Chen Qilin's words came out, Mrs. Chen's eyes were red, she raised one hand to wipe her eyes, and the other hand grabbed her eldest grandson and refused to let go, and led her to the door to see her son.

Old Mrs. Chen took Chen Qilin with one hand and stroked Chen Zichang's hand with the other, Chen Xuemiao followed behind, walked into the crowd and showed off to everyone with a smile: "My eldest grandson's mansion has taken the first place in the exam." ”

Mrs. Chen has said this countless times in recent days, and now she is pulling the deity to show off again. The villagers respect scholars, not to mention that Qi Lin took the first place again, although everyone had seen the jokes of Chen Zichang in the second room before, everyone still admired Chen Qilin in their hearts.

More and more people gathered at the door of Chen's house, and the old man Chen stood in the yard smoking a cigarette pouch, looking at Mrs. Chen with a happy face pulling her eldest grandson to show off in the crowd, although he did not enter the crowd, but he could feel the envious eyes of everyone outside, and his own face also had a brilliance.

"Old man, hurry up," Mrs. Chen smiled with a smile on her face, twisted her body and shouted to Old Man Chen who was smoking in the yard, "The eldest grandson has taken the first place, and the neighbors know it, you hurry up and go to the house to bring out those melon seeds, pastries, and sugar melons and distribute them to everyone." ”

Qi Lin shouted "Grandpa" through the crowd, and Old Man Chen turned around and entered the house with a smile on his face.

Everyone was clamoring for sugar and melon seeds, and Old Man Chen had not yet come out of the effort to go in for a cup of tea.

A little daughter-in-law laughed bitterly: "Uncle Chen is not stuck to his feet by the sugar melon and can't get out, but he is reluctant to let go of those few sugars." ”

The food in the upper room of the Chen family has always been kept by Mrs. Chen, and the place where she hid was not to mention Old Man Chen, I was afraid that even a mouse would not be able to turn it out.

Chen Xuejiao and Li glanced at each other, and guessed Li's thoughts, and Chen Xuejiao's thoughts were the same. At this time, outsiders are looking at the entire Chen family, so it doesn't matter which one is the upper room and which is the big house, if the sugar can't be served, it will be the face of the entire Chen family that is lost. No matter how discordant and centrifugal the Chen family is in the upper room and the big house, in front of outsiders, they are still a family, and if the Chen family loses face in the upper room, the entire Chen family loses face, and of course Chen Xuejiao's family can't hide it.

"It's just a matter of a few plates of sugar melons, how bad it is to spread out." Li Shi quietly glanced at Chen Xuejiao.

Shi Shi was a clever man, and when he heard what Li said this, he quickly ran into the house, picked up the fine four-color sugar melons, melon seeds, and pastries from the south, and put them on four large plates.

Chen Xuejiao and Chen Qi'an took it over, and walked towards the crowd with Xueru, Qi Ping, and Jinghao, Mrs. Chen saw that the big room was so generous, her face was a little gloomy, and when the four plates of melon seeds and pastries were finished, Old Man Chen had not yet come out of the upper room, and she couldn't help but scold her husband for being unreliable.

Li looked at her own children, and was quite proud in her heart, the children she raised were kind-hearted and took care of the overall situation at a critical moment.

Chen Xuejiao walked up to Xue Miao and saw that her feet had become smaller, with pointed toes exposed under the pomegranate skirt, and she was wearing a pair of embroidered shoes with butterflies.

Chen Xuejiao looked at Xue Jiao, Xue Ru, and Jing Hao wearing a dress she had never seen before, the material, style, and color were better than the skirts she had chosen from thousands of times, and she was dissatisfied, so she relied on their poor lives to wear such a good skirt. pulled his face at the moment, and ignored Xue Jiao.

Seeing that the big house and the family were standing at the door, the Li family's whole body was full of style, and his eyes were dazzling. Xue Jiao has spent so many days in Xuzhou Mansion, and she is clear about silk and jewelry, and the two pearl hairpins on Li's head are only afraid of getting older. I heard people say that Dafang was rich, but she and the Zhao family didn't believe it, they just thought it was spread by others, so when they looked at the dress of the Dafang family, it seemed to be true.

"The second uncle's family is really, knowing that Brother Qi Lin won the first place, the villagers will come to the house to ask for sugar and melon seeds, and they don't prepare some." Xue Ru whispered to Xue Jiao's ear and said.

"They've thought about it for a long time, and they'll arrange it." Xue Jiao looked in the courtyard, and Old Man Chen had just come out of the upper room, holding a tray in his hand.

Zhang hurriedly took it and said: "Oh, mom, Dad, the big house has scattered sugar melons and melon seeds, so we won't waste it, let's keep it for ourselves." ”

Zhang, who was holding a plate with a smile on her face, came to Mrs. Chen, she had dressed up deliberately today, the powder on her face was rubbed an inch thick, and she drew her eyebrows and painted rouge, and the powder on her face fell down with a smile, stretching her neck and looking back: "Second brother, why didn't his father come." ”

"The shop has been doing well recently, and he is very busy, so he stayed in Xuzhou Mansion to look at the shop." Chen Zichang looked up at the courtyard, this courtyard and house, compared with the courtyard of Xuzhou Mansion, are dilapidated and old, how can they live in Ansheng.

Zhang's face disappeared into a smile.

Two boys got out of a car behind, trotted in front of Chen Zichang, and called Huan Shi one by one: "When will the things in the carriage be unloaded?" ”

Chen Zichang's face was high, and he didn't look at the two little guys: "You still have to ask me about this kind of thing." ”

The little servant confessed, ran to the carriage in a puff of smoke, and began to carry things from it. Chen Xuejiao stood on tiptoe and took a look, there was a burden inside, thinking that it was the covered clothes of the two-bedroom family, and only a little pastry and fruit cake were placed under the burden.

When Mrs. Chen saw the little maid moving things into the yard, she opened her mouth: "Good girl, my son is also a master now." ”

The onlookers were complimented again.

The crowd gradually dispersed, Chen Qilin took Mrs. Chen's hand and walked into the yard, just stepped into the yard, Mrs. Chen suddenly remembered something, turned her head and asked Xue Miao, who was following behind: "What about your mother, why didn't you come?" ”

Chen Xuejiao rushed forward and said cautiously: "I just passed through Zhaojiazhuang, and my mother got off the carriage and went to grandma's house." ”

When Mrs. Chen heard this, her footsteps stopped, and she couldn't hold back for a long time, and her face suddenly fell: "Who is she?" How can a daughter-in-law not come to the house first, but go back to her parents' house first? (To be continued......)
