After a few people talked for a while, the eldest lady He sent Jin over to invite everyone to lunch.

Lunch was placed in the flower hall, divided into two tables, one table for men to drink, and one table for women to eat. Because the Xu family still has several unmarried young ladies here, a screen is used in the middle, which is not rude.

Xu Deng frowned slightly, she attaches great importance to rules and etiquette, if it was the Xu family in the past, one table must be in the flower hall and one table in the dining room. But the Xu family is now different from the past, so not only did Xu Deng not get angry, but immediately suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and pulled a smile to talk to Old Madam Shen and the eldest lady He and others.

After lunch, everyone sat together and drank tea, and talked about Hua Yude and Xu Qirong's trip to Beijiao, the eldest lady He smiled and said: "It's okay to go over there, when the world is decided, everyone can always be together again." These words were comforting Old Madam Shen.

Xu Qirong leaned over to Old Madam Shen and took her hand and shook it: "If my grandmother is reluctant to me, I will stay with my grandmother!" ”

When Hua Yude heard this, he was a little reluctant in his heart, but he said with a smile: "Why don't grandmothers go to Beili with us?" Over there, the climate is a little colder and drier, and everything else is fine. ”

Old Madam Shen is a human spirit, and she immediately saw through Hua Yude's thoughts, and said with a smile: "I'm so old, I won't follow you anymore." Then he looked at Xu Qirong with a little emotion, and said, "You young people have things to do for you young people, and the old woman is old and can't help you." But I can't hold you back. ”

Xu Qirong was a little sad, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and only made some witty remarks to make Old Madam Shen happy.

Wait until everyone is almost done. Xu Qirong took advantage of the excuse of changing clothes to pull Xu Qi'e out, and the two stood at the rockery at the entrance of the garden to talk, and Yu Xia helped to watch the wind.

Xu Qirong said with a straight face: "I have already told my father about Xu You. Although you are still young, you are already thirteen years old, and your father and mother are still alive. Although my father and mother feel sorry for you and Sister Die, they don't dare to interfere too much in marriage matters, for fear that you will not have a good life in the future. So. In terms of family affairs, you and Sister Die yourself should also pay more attention. ”

Xu Qi'e was full of gratitude, took Xu Qirong's hand and said, "Sister, don't say anything else." As long as you don't have to marry Xu You. I'm so happy. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future! ”

Xu Qirong nodded, very satisfied with her attitude, and her tone became more and more sincere: "Although you don't talk much on weekdays, I know that you have more ideas than Sister Die." We are sisters, and there are not so many taboos when we talk, so these things. My sister told you clearly, and you should mention Sister Butterfly more on weekdays. Now Ah Wu and Taiping have been added. After all, Daddy and Mother have limited energy, and you are not small, although some things can't be done too out of line, it doesn't hurt to pay more attention to them. ”

Originally, she shouldn't have taught Xu Qi'e this, but at this time and then, now that the war is raging, the Xu family is not as good as before, where are there so many good family affairs waiting for the Xu family to pick and choose!

Xu Qi'e pursed her lips and smiled, looking shy, and whispered, "I know what my sister means." Just like my brother-in-law, my father and mother didn't say anything, but I knew they weren't very satisfied. At the time, I also felt that my brother-in-law was a little unworthy of my sister, but now that I read it, I realized that my brother-in-law is a rare good man in the world, and my sister has picked up a treasure! ”

Xu Qirong was a little surprised when he heard this, Hua Yude had never said a word to Xu Qi'e, why did Xu Qi'e have such a good impression of Hua Yude? But he didn't ask anything, only said, "Do you think I'm married very well?" I only hope that all the little ladies of our Xu family will marry better than me, and all of them will marry better than me. ”

As the sisters were talking, they saw Xu Qidie pulling Xu Qiyu over. The previous topic is not easy to talk about, Hua Yude and Xu Qirong are scheduled to go to Beijiao five days later, Xu Tingyuan also plans to leave for Suzhou in five days, and the sisters don't know if they will have the opportunity to meet in the future, so they all cherish the last few days of getting along.

The dinner was still in Shen's house, Shen He drank the medicine and ate the medicinal food, and the whole person was already in good spirits, Hua Yude pitted him to help block the wine, and he also came back to his senses, and when it was time for dinner, he turned around and poured wine into Hua Yude.

Hua Yude did not refuse to come, and gave face. In the end, a little maid couldn't look at it, so she came over and told the second wife Liu, who went over and reprimanded Shen He a few words, and then stopped.

After dinner, Hua Yude took Xu Qirong to say goodbye to everyone. I don't know how much wine Hua Yude drank, and the smell of wine on his body covered the original medicinal fragrance.

Although Hua Yude's body is much better than before, he still takes pills every morning. Although Xu Qirong didn't understand medical skills, he still knew some common sense, and people who took medicine couldn't drink alcohol, so he was a little worried about Hua Yude, and said, "You should have asked people to come over to find your second aunt." ”

Hua Yude looked very happy and said with a smile: "That little maid was not called by me." It's okay to drink a little wine, you can't get drunk on your wedding day, but you can't get drunk today. ”

"Didn't you call it over, or who called it?" Xu Qirong asked, and then asked, "What does it mean not to be drunk?" ”

Hua Yude turned his head to look at Xu Qirong, his eyes were a little bright: "I'm happy!" But he didn't say who the little maid called to find the second aunt.

Xu Qirong pondered for a moment, this matter, it can't be that her father feels sorry for her son-in-law! couldn't help but smile on his face, and spoke to Hua Yude very softly: "Yes, you are happy, and I am also happy." Let's go back and drink the sobering soup and get a good night's sleep, okay? ”

Hua Yude couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xu Qirong talking like this: "Where you get drunk, you are too careful." Then he whispered in Xu Qirong's ear, "Let's not go back, let's go to the north of the city to watch the fireworks." ”

Out of the gate of the Shen Mansion, the two of them watched the people who sent them out go back, and then they walked slowly hand in hand to the mouth of the alley, and when they got out of the alley, they saw Gong Jiu driving a carriage waiting there, which should have been arranged by Hua Yude a long time ago.

The massacre of Fuzhou City happened, and the people of the entire Xinchen Kingdom stopped all entertainment activities, even Chinese New Year's Eve, the Spring Festival of the New Year and the Lantern Festival passed plainly, everyone wore plain clothes, ate and chanted Buddha, and abstained from entertainment activities such as singing, dancing and fireworks for several months, just to pay tribute to the dead people in Fuzhou City. It was also in February, when the flowers were in full bloom and everything was renewed, and everyone came back to their senses and slowly regained the atmosphere of laughter, laughter, singing and dancing.

When he arrived in the north of the city, Xu Qirong knew that Hua Yude had another courtyard here, which was not big, but it had everything in place.

Hua Yude explained: "How many people are looking at me, and some people who are inconvenient to show up arrange to meet in this courtyard. The people who arranged the guards in this courtyard didn't come out and walk around much on weekdays, so the Xijing City side still didn't know who the owner of this courtyard was! ”

Xu Qirong's expression was a little complicated: "This courtyard is so mysterious, and we are still watching the fireworks with such fanfare?" "In this way, isn't it equivalent to telling others that this courtyard belongs to him Hua Yude! Xu Qirong began to suspect that Hua Yude was really drunk. Otherwise, how could he bring her to the other courtyard so much?

If it is exposed, what should I do? Xu Qirong felt that he was so worried! (To be continued.) )
