In the past two days, because of the fear of Xue Miao, Chen Xuejiao's salted duck egg workshop was temporarily stopped. The goods ordered by the restaurant in the town were not allowed to be picked up, so they hired two carriages from the town, which were carried by stones, and came from them in person.

In the past two days, although the salted duck egg workshop has stopped, the Chen family's big house has not been idle. The house in the town was bought, and because the house had not been inhabited for a long time, the ash on the walls and the paint on the door inevitably fell off.

Chen Xiucai and Li love their children more, and let Xue Jiao take their own ideas to decorate their own houses.

Chen Xuejiao groped for the drawings, there is nothing to arrange in the room, Chen Xuejiao has always liked to be cheerful and atmospheric, only to open up the wall in the middle of her room, and put on the wide screen in the future to have a taste. Chen Xuejiao is interested in a prominent piece of the waterfront place in the yard, on which there is a delicate rockery, there is a row of flower shelves on the edge of the rockery, on the two-meter-high shelf, there are many tangled vines and trees, because it is late autumn The leaves are gone, and I can't see what kind of flowers are on it. The previous owner gave this place an elegant name, called Mochizuki Tower. This place is the best scenery of the whole courtyard, swinging under the flower shelf in spring, enjoying water lilies near the water in summer, watching fallen leaves on the rockery in autumn, and snow around the fireplace in winter, it is very beautiful to think about.

Because of Xue Jiao, she poured all her energy into the Moon Tower, drawing pictures, and communicating with workers, the purpose was to create an elegant and pleasant place for her family.

Yesterday, I stayed up until midnight to draw the drawings, and Chen Xuejiao's art skills were very poor. At most, it is the level of modern middle school students, and I don't know if the master who repairs the garden can understand it.

Although she stayed up late, Chen Xuejiao still got up early in the morning. The weather has not been sunny in the past two days, an autumn rain and an autumn rain followed, today it is still so cloudy outside, the cold wind has swept the water vapor to the window, the plane tree by the courtyard wall seems to have gone through the winter overnight, the leaves are all wilted and called the frost to beat, only the pot of chrysanthemums under the eaves of the north wing house is colder and more spiritual. The petals of the large flowers are in full bloom, and you can smell the fragrance of the wind from a distance.

The Chen family's compound is quiet, and the old man Chen, who has always liked to go out for a walk, has been hiding at home for the past few days smoking, drinking, and sulking. Mrs. Chen cried from time to time. Or call Zhao over and scold her, scolding her for instigating Chen Zichang, and now she has brought Xue Miao to ruin. Zhang, who goes crazy if he doesn't go out every day, has been confined at home for the past two days. Like a besieged beast. From time to time, she pointed to Zhao's house and scolded Huai, her voice was loud and quiet, and she was called over by Old Man Chen to shut up after a lot of rectification, but she still scolded and scolded at the back of the person.

Chen Xuejiao walked under the eaves, stretched her waist, moved her muscles, took a deep breath, and leaned over to look at the chrysanthemums. These two pots of chrysanthemums were given to Chen Xiucai by the Han family to watch. One pot is crab claw chrysanthemum, and the other pot is compound chrysanthemum. Compound chrysanthemum is a flower with two colors. This pot of chrysanthemums has a total of eight bowl-sized flowers, with two colors of dorsal and ventral, yellow on the back and red on the ventral surface; There are petals with one color as the background color, and there are white spots on them, which look like "sika deer" at first glance; There are "red line gold beads" with bright red at the base of the petals and golden yellow at the apex; There is also a heart flower that is a water red, and the side flower is dark red, like the color of the sky when the morning sun first rises.

Crab claw chrysanthemum is easier to see, and compound chrysanthemum is more rare, and you can't buy it even if you have silver. The Han family's pot of chrysanthemums is said to have been bought in Xuzhou Mansion with a lot of money, and they bought it from home without viewing it, and gave it directly to Chen Xiucai. Everyone in the Chen family was very happy, especially the Li family was so happy that they couldn't close their mouths, she was not happy that the Han family sent such a valuable chrysanthemum, but that the Han family took Xueru to heart, and a pot of flowers from Baba was also sent.

Chen Xuejiao watched the flowers once, and suddenly felt a cold light coming from her temples, she was clever, raised her body and looked behind her, only to see Chen Xuemiao crouching by the window, a pair of red and swollen eyes, staring at herself suspiciously, that gaze was resentful and cold.

At that time, the merchant was designed by Chen Xuejiao, and she was not afraid of being known by Chen Xuemiao, she couldn't wait for the evil consequences of Xuemiao's funeral.

Chen Xuejiao shot back coldly.

Chen Xuemiao opened her mouth and made a hoarse sound, Chen Xuejiao couldn't hear what she was saying, in short, it was not a good word, and she didn't have the heart to know.

Chen Xue Miao cried for two days and one night, her voice was hoarse, but fortunately she was placed in the inner room, and the window was stuffed with thatch and cloth strips in the crack of the door, so her wolf crying and howling voice did not come out.

At first, she also called San Lang Saburo, until the old man Chen told her that if she was shouting the merchant's name, she would break the merchant's leg, and Chen Xuemiao stopped calling, but she was still crying, beating the bed board, and the food sent in, tossing for two days and two nights, seeing that no one paid attention to her, she became honest, but her voice was really speechless.

Chen Xuejiao and Chen Xuemiao looked at each other for a while, and saw Zhao appear by the window with a haggard face, pulling Xue Miao into the room, Chen Xuejiao shifted her gaze casually.

Zhao was just called over by Mrs. Chen and scolded, she was stimulated by Xue Miao and the merchant, and ate her mother-in-law's scolding from time to time, her heart was simply discouraged, but she had to hold on, she was reluctant to scold Xue Miao, afraid that she would break the jar and do something out of the ordinary, so she had to coax her heart and lungs, persuade Xue Miao to break this thought, and ordered Qi Lin to write a letter to Xue Yao, just waiting for Xue Yao to take them back to Xuzhou Mansion, and when the time comes, they are helping Xue Miao find a family business, and this matter will be broken.

Zhao closed the door tightly, and ordered Lu'er and Cui'er to guard at the door, and she had something to interrogate Chen Xuemiao.

Chen Xuemiao has grown up this year, although she was born black, she is tall, with black hair, a thin waist, and big eyes to pick up, it is the age when the flowers are half-bloomed, although her appearance is not as good as Xue Yao Xueru, it can be regarded as a symbol. Zhao Shi looked at Chen Xuemiao, thinking of the thief-eyed merchant, and felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"Miao'er, you ......"

Without waiting for Zhao to speak, Xue Miao interrupted her mother's words in a hoarse voice: "I know what my mother wants to say, but I want me to break my thoughts, return to Xuzhou Mansion, hold my sister's face, and find me a good family affair, but the children of the official family and the rich family may look up to me, and the wife of Wu Xiucai's family last time refused to marry my mother's mention Anyway, I will not marry anyone except San Lang." ”

Zhao was robbed by his daughter, panting for breath, and he couldn't wait to beat Xue Miao hard.

"I eat more salt than you eat, and I can't talk about you as a mother." Zhao almost bit out a mouthful of blood, "Tell me who you are worthy of such a thing?" Mother doesn't feel sorry for you, who else feels sorry for you, if I hadn't stopped you, your father and your father would have kicked you out of the door. ”

Zhao and his party cried and said that they hated their daughters and were not angry, and they were still so stubborn this time, so they went out and said: "You go out, you go out and follow the merchant." You are young and only know that your eyes are warm, and you don't know that there are those who have a negative heart, and you have never heard of marrying a wife, and running a concubine. ”

Chen Xue Miaomu said dumbfoundedly: "Brother San Lang is not that kind of person. ”

"Who is he?" Zhao's face was sour, and he squeezed his daughter's hand fiercely, this merchant simply died, I don't know what ecstasy soup he gave to his daughter, but he used a stone as a treasure.

Zhao saw Chen Xuemiao mention the merchant, although he was still cowardly, but there was a hint of spring in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, he couldn't help but bite a mouthful of silver teeth, endured the urge to scold, and cautiously asked Xue Miao: "Do you have a ...... with him?" Can you break your body? ”

This is what Zhao is most worried about, she has long wanted to ask Xue Miao this question, but she has always been afraid that she will not be able to stand it. This is also a problem that the second elder of the upper room is concerned about, the old man Chen borrowed the mouth of the old lady Chen to talk to the Zhao family, if Xue Miao is really damaged by the merchant, then the only way to marry the merchant.

The Zhao family has the heart to die.

When Chen Xuemiao heard such a question, she was stunned, and her face turned red: "He came in over the wall and stopped me, we"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao's eyes were dark, and he was about to faint. Suddenly, I wanted to go crazy, tore Chen Xuemiao's clothes, and asked sharply while tearing: "Is it broken...... Oh my God, you just let me die"

Chen Xuemiao was frightened stupid by Zhao's crazy actions, struggled hard, and as soon as her coat was torn off by Zhao, Zhao grabbed Xue Miao's belt and was about to uncover it, and was covered by Xue Miao: "No, mother, it's not what you think, Brother San Lang didn't break my body." ”

Only then did Zhao stop his crazy actions and asked Xue Miao with tears: "Is this true?" ”

Xue Miao nodded in a hoarse voice: "It's true!" ”

Zhao put down a big stone in his heart, as long as he didn't break his body, it would be easy to do.

Chen Xuemiao is still young, but she has just been in the spring, and the other is that the merchant is not so bold. Although the merchant knew the personnel, he deliberately hooked up with Xue Miao when she fell into the water, and he had been dating for so many days, although he showed some intentions, he hooked Chen Xuemiao and him out of their hearts and lungs, he came in over the wall, and the two quietly hugged each other, but they didn't dare to go down.

Zhao kicked and sat down on the bed.

Chen Xuemiao knelt down in front of Zhao and took the initiative to talk about the merchant.

The merchant's surname is Lai, he was a scholar, his father passed away, there is an old mother in the family, and an elder brother, he married his sister-in-law last year, and the family could not afford to provide him with education, so he carried the burden and walked the streets and alleys to sell rouge head oil.

The reason why he wandered through the streets and alleys was that he wanted to make more money, save money to set up a shop, and never do this windy and sunny business again. There are books next to his burden, and when there are few people resting, he picks up the books from time to time to read.

Chen Xuemiao only thinks that others are willing to be motivated and endure hardships, and like her brother, she is a reading material.

“…… Mother, he and his brother are the same readers. Chen Xuemiao cried and said. (To be continued......)
