In the following days, Zhou Xiaofu continued to meditate and lose weight, because there was nothing to do, so she hurried up to practice, and what she didn't know was that the entire Tongzhou Mansion was asking about a white-faced mother and a fat boy.

On the afternoon of the fifth day, I heard that Cuihua came to report that Zhou Xiaofu's brother Zhou Xiaoyang had come to see her.

Zhou Xiaofu changed into a lotus pink muslin shirt made by Lan's mother, and walked quickly to the living room.

As soon as I entered, I saw Zhou Xiaoyang sitting on a chair drinking water with a dusty face, Zhou Xiaofu's heart was warm, this is the closest person to this body, and now she is the closest person to her, and she has come to see her from hundreds of miles away.

Zhou Xiaofu stepped forward to salute Zhou Xiaoyang seriously, and called crisply: "Brother"

Zhou Xiaoyang was stunned, is this his sister, a little girl who looks a little round, but not like the willow eyebrows and thin eyes of ordinary girls, a pair of sword eyebrows, the eyes are getting bigger and brighter, looking heroic, seeing Zhou Xiaoyang stunned, Zhou Xiaofu burst out laughing, but she couldn't stop it.

Mother Lan on the side looked at Zhou Xiaofu with disgust, and immediately turned her head to explain to the stunned Zhou Xiaoyang: "Young master, don't be surprised, this young lady is afraid that you don't recognize her, which makes it bad." ”

Zhou Xiaoyang also laughed when he heard this, this sister's temperament was more lively than before, and she suddenly said warmly in her heart: "Sister, you have lost a lot, I can't recognize you as a brother." ”

Zhou Xiaofu smiled and said: "Well, control your diet at night, and you will lose weight by exercising every day, this self-breathing is good, and people are comfortable, but brother, why are you here, you will take the exam in the middle of next month." ”

Zhou Xiaoyang smiled, his sister became more and more sensible, he always felt lonely before, but since his sister woke up from an accident, he felt more and more the warmth of family affection.

"I can't rest assured that you're here alone."

Zhou Xiaoyang said, and then immediately paused again and said, "Do you give your father a seal?" ”

Zhou Xiaofu was stunned, she didn't know that she had caused the seal turmoil.

But he immediately nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Zhou Xiaoyang was stunned, glanced around, and didn't ask questions immediately, since he knew the answer, it would be the same later, he had already come over, and he could discuss it with his sister.

Zhou Xiaofu also saw Zhou Xiaoyang's concern, so she didn't say anything more, but hurriedly settled Tu's to settle down for food, found Cuihua and Ziling over, and settled down to boil water or something.

Zhou Xiaofu settled down and Zhou Xiaoyang returned to the bedroom first, and Lan's mother said with a solemn face: "Fourth Miss, did you say that something happened to this seal?" Otherwise, the young master came all the way to ventilate, I'm afraid there would be something. ”

Zhou Xiaofu then nodded as well, "Yes, but fortunately, my brother is here, and we also have a preparation to explain." ”

Half an hour later, Cuihua came in and said the meal was ready. Today, because Zhou Xiaoyang is here, the food is placed in the hall.

Zhou Xiaofu and Lan's mother went over together, and saw that Zhou Xiaoyang was already sitting on the chair waiting in a steamy body, obviously just took a shower, and his hair was half dry, Zhou Xiaofu looked at her brother, her brother looked very similar to her, both had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but her brother looked more masculine, and he was more heroic, and he looked like a cheap father.

Zhou Xiaofu said with a smile on her face: "Brother, you're hungry, hurry up and eat." ”

Zhou Xiaoyang is also happy, rarely so relaxed to eat with his sister, used to eat together at most at the family banquet, or across the table, that sister and him are not very close, he is always very distressed, now watching his sister more and more sensible, his heart is very hot, and he looks like he has a sister who has everything to do.

Zhou Xiaofu immediately sent everyone down, and even Lan's mother let her go down, although Lan's mother felt that this was not in accordance with the rules, but seeing that the brother and sister felt better and better, she didn't say much, and went down to eat.

Zhou Xiaofu saw that everyone was gone, and used her mental power to sense that there were no high-calorie people around, that is, people with martial arts, and their brothers and sisters were not enough to be monitored, so she used chopsticks to pick up the braised carp and gave it to Zhou Xiaoyang's plate and said with a smile: "Brother, this is a carp bought in the village, caught by the villagers in the river, and it can be regarded as game, you can taste it." ”

When did Zhou Xiaoyang receive such treatment from his sister, he immediately ate happily.

It's no wonder that this Zhou Xiaoyang is like this, the original owner Zhou Xiaofu was not like this before, she is not close to this brother, but to the stepmother's two children, and Zhou Xiaoyang can only guard Zhou Xiaofu, a sister who is not close to him, it is rare to have such a deep love between brothers and sisters.

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoyang was eating happily, Zhou Xiaofu was also happy in her heart, picked a few vegetarian dishes and ate them, she had lost weight slowly recently, and she had to become more and more restrained, and asked Zhou Xiaoyang while eating: "Brother, what's the matter with the seal?" How do you know it? ”

Zhou Xiaoyang was half-full, and then took a sip of soup and said: "The seal you gave to your father has now shocked the entire capital, and a while ago, there were literati of all sizes who came to the door to ask for viewing, and there were many posts asking for viewing until the end of the year." ”

Zhou Xiaofu was shocked in her heart like a pool of water being turned upside down, what is going on.

It turns out that this is the case, Zhou Xiaofu's cheap father is a literati, in Kyoto like to get together with friends to chat about poetry or study the seal, everyone has such a small circle, this just got Zhou Xiaofu's seal to play with the material, so he got it to the party, and the result suddenly stirred up a thousand waves, this literati is pedantic, in order to seek the answer to the question at any cost, many people are checking books, passing on each other, this is famous, plus this seal is special, especially the red plum inside is particularly unique, but people can't put it down.

Even Zhou Yaozu, the patriarch of the family, asked about it, and when he asked, he just went to Zhuangzi to give it to Zhou Xiaofu, and asked his son, and the son didn't know where his granddaughter came, but seeing that it wasn't a bad thing, he didn't ask more.

And when Zhou Xiaofu heard this, she felt that her scalp was numb, she didn't want to be famous, she just wanted to be an invisible person, practice the exercises silently, and get some money, if she had no choice, she had to get married, and if she couldn't find someone she liked, she could just find a waste, but now it was beyond her expectations, just because of a seal.

Zhou Xiaoyang looked at his sister whose face was changing, with a worried face, Zhou Xiaofu reacted after a while, and found Zhou Xiaoyang's worry and said: "Brother, in fact, the seal was left by my mother, and you also have one." ”

Zhou Xiaofu had to continue lying, alas, no wonder in his previous life he said that if he told a lie, he had to tell more lies to fulfill this lie.

Zhou Xiaoyang looked at his sister in surprise: "Mother left?" ”

Zhou Xiaofu saw that Zhou Xiaoyang had eaten almost, and he was almost there, so he asked Lan's mother to come over, and the three of them returned to Zhou Xiaofu's bedroom, which is not feasible in Kyoto, but in Zhuangzi, they are basically their own people, so they will not do anything.

Everyone sat down when they came in, and Zhou Xiaofu took a sip of tea, and said the nonsense he told to Lan's mother again, but this is the second time he said it, and it was smooth, but Zhou Xiaoyang is not Lan's mother, although she is only thirteen years old, but the children of the big family 6 are casually enlightened, Zhou Xiaoyang is a person who has been reading books for seven years, and this time Zhou Xiaofu has perfected the lie as much as possible.

After finishing speaking, Zhou Xiaofu didn't look at Zhou Xiaoyang's face, so she had to drink water quietly.

Mother Lan was still a little embarrassed when she heard Zhou Xiaofu say this for the second time, after all, it involved gods and ghosts, and only said that although the ancients believed in gods and ghosts, they had never seen it.

After meeting everyone, everyone stopped talking, Zhou Xiaofu saw that it was almost over, and said to Zhou Xiaoyang: "Brother, no matter how many doubts you have, things are already like this, we can only believe this, after all, the thing was really dug up, and Mother Lan and I also sold some of it, and after speaking, I took out the last plexiglass seal, which happened to be Zhou Xiaoyang's genus."

This will Zhou Xiaoyang had to believe it, this eighty percent is really his mother's relic, otherwise why would there be a monkey seal, and it was specially left for him.

Zhou Xiaoyang held the seal of the monkey, and he missed his mother more and more, but in fact, his impression of this mother became weaker and weaker with the loss of time.

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoyang believed eight points, Zhou Xiaofu said in a hot voice: "Brother, Mother Lan and I have already sold some things, and sold 120,000 taels of silver tickets. ”

Zhou Xiaoyang was stunned when he heard this, and then asked, "How much?" ”

Zhou Xiaofu laughed, glanced at Mother Lan, Mother Lan also smiled, remembering that if she hadn't gone a few days ago, otherwise she would have thought she was dreaming.

"The young master is 120,000 taels, the fourth lady is very smart, she brought the slaves and maids and put on makeup, even if someone wants to find it, they can't find it." Mother Lan will be adored with a face.

Zhou Xiaoyang only found his voice at this time: "Sister, it's really good to sell so much, it's only a part, so that my sister's dowry doesn't have to worry, you don't know that I'm so worried that you won't have a dowry when you get married." ”

Zhou Xiaofu's heart exploded and warmed, this brother, when he heard that he was rich, he first did not think of himself, but was happy for his future dowry, which is really worthy of her treating so carefully.

Zhou Xiaofu smiled and said: "Brother, this matter is still early, I plan to buy some land and shops with these money, half of which is in my name and half is in your name, but I won't let my family know, what do you think." ”

Looking at his sister like this, Zhou Xiaoyang felt that there was nothing to say, so he nodded, "Just look at it, pay attention to safety, tell me what is inconvenient for you, I'll do it, and I can be idle for a while after this exam." ”

Zhou Xiaofu was very happy to see Zhou Xiaoyang so relieved, but she also took out a silver ticket from the drawer next to her, handed it to Zhou Xiaoyang and said: "Brother, my stepmother is in charge of the house, I only have five taels of silver every month, and you only have eight taels. ”

Zhou Xiaoyang looked at his sister and did not refuse, "Sister, this is a little too much." ”

Zhou Xiaofu said: "Brother, it's better to have money to defend yourself, you just pretend to be it, and put it away if you don't need it, but you must be careful, don't be discovered, otherwise it's really hard to explain." ”

Hearing Zhou Xiaofu say this, he didn't shirk anymore, it was already night, and it was really inconvenient for him to be here with his sister, so he put away the silver ticket and went back to the backyard.

And Zhou Xiaofu also sent someone to carry water in to wash and prepare for bed.
