Chapter 34: Choices

If you can't beat it, you have to fight?

Xie Yao was angry and incredible.

She knew that Xie Rouqing was a tendon by herself, but she was a smart tendon, although she didn't deliberately please Xie Rouhui, she would never make Xie Rouhui unhappy, so she had a good relationship with Xie Rouhui.

Why is she crazy now? Crashing into the mountains with all your heart?

Really, since that Xie Roujia got out, why has the life of the family become more and more unpeaceful?

"Look at your guts." Xie Rouhui said.

"yes, look at your guts." Xie Yao followed and said, looking at Xie Rouqing.

Xie Rouhui turned her head to look at her.

"I said you were cowardly." She said.

Xie Yao's expression froze, looking at his hands.

"It's not that I don't dare to hit her, Megumi, what if she goes crazy and hurts you." She hurriedly said, blocking in front of Xie Rouhui, "It's better to tell the eldest lady quickly and drive her away." ”

Xie Rouhui smiled, and there was no tear in her originally tearful eyes.

"No, this matter doesn't matter to the third sister, the third sister is still young." She said.

As soon as these words came out, Xie Yao was a little surprised, and Xie Rouqing also looked at Xie Rouhui.

"She is not sensible, Shao Mingqing has always been good with her, and it is inevitable to coax her." Xie Rouhui continued.

"Megumii, are you really, still protecting her?" Xie Yao said, very uneven.

"It's certainly not for me to protect me." Xie Rouqing said.

Xie Yao glared.

"Look at her." She said.

Xie Rouhui still smiled, not minding Xie Rouqing's words at all.

"Don't worry. What to do or what to do, I will tell my mother. She said.

Xie Rouqing looked at her.

Xie Rouhui looked at her with a smile, and reached out to pull her hanging hair behind her ears.

"You still have to go to school, you have to dance, and you have to participate in the March 3rd sacrifice, forget about it, you are still the third lady of the Xie family, don't worry, there is me." She said.

After that, he stroked Xie Rouqing's shoulder, turned around and walked forward.

Xie Yao glared at Xie Rouqing and hurriedly followed.

"Hui Hui Hui Hui." She caught up with Xie Rouhui, "Do you really want to talk to your mother for Xie Rouqing?" ”

"Really. Why am I telling lies. Xie Rouhui said with a smile.

"That. Then why not let her marry far away like Xie Roushu? Your second uncle has already picked someone out. Xie Yao said.

Xie Rouhui stopped.

"For some people, marrying away and leaving this family is a punishment, but for some people, being trapped in this family understands everything in their hearts but has to live a confused life. is the punishment. Let her marry far away. Live a comfortable life and think beautifully. She said, smiling and reaching out to help Xie Yao tie the cloak belt. Sister Yao, the most bitter in the world can't escape. ”

Xie Yao only felt a little suffocated when her neck was tightened, and Xie Rouhui let go of her hand.

"Let's go, I'm going to go to my grandmother and kneel down to plead for my mother." She said.

Xie Yao responded, busy keeping up with her footsteps.

When Mrs. Xie rushed back, it was almost evening, and the sunset spread in front of the Xie family's main house, stretching the figure of Mrs. Xie sitting alone under the porch at the door of the house for a long time.

The setting sun made Old Madam Xie's face a little blurred, but what could be seen clearly was her upright figure.

Old Madam Xie was in a trance for a moment, he couldn't remember the last time he saw Old Madam Xie with such a straight figure, since Old Madam Xie had been drinking, she was always sitting and lying down in a dizzy state.

He was originally anxious and worried, and suddenly relaxed at this moment.

He walked over and sat down on the steps in front of Old Madam Xie.

"You can't do this in the future, don't say anywhere, let me find it for a while." He gasped and grumbled.

"Who told you to find me?" Old Madam Xie said.

Old lady Xie smiled.

"I'll move something for you." He said, looking back at the main room, "This house is good, I haven't lived in it for many years, I don't know if it can be decorated as it was at the beginning." ”

Yes, it's been many years, and even if it's set up as it was at the beginning, it's not the same as it was at the beginning.

Old Madam Xie stood up and walked with her feet raised.

Old Lady Xie hurriedly got up and followed.

"You sit, you sit, you don't need to do it, I can move, I can move alone." He said.

Old Madam Xie glanced at him.

"You old bones are sore when you carry a birdcage, what else can you do." She said.

"That's not allowed to do it, as long as you speak, you can do anything." Old Lady Xie said, rolling up her sleeves, "You wait, you look at me, then you will carry in your favorite Luohan bed first." ”

As he spoke, he walked out, and Old Madam Xie called out to him.

"What to move, it's just an object, what do you like the most." She said, stepping on her feet.

Old lady Xie hurriedly followed.

Seeing Mrs. Xie walk out, the people kneeling outside the courtyard gate hurriedly raised their heads.

"Old lady..."

Everyone shouted.

Old Madam Xie ignored them and stood in front of Xie Rouhui.

"Grandmother." Xie Rouhui shouted with tears in her eyes, reaching out and grabbing Old Madam Xie's sleeve.

"Megumi, come with me." Old Madam Xie said.

"Grandmother, where are you going?" Xie Rouhui asked.

"I won't live in this house, so I'll go to Yushan to live." Old Madam Xie said, looking back at the mansion, "In fact, it's the same wherever you live, the key is not the place, it's the people, even if I live somewhere else, I can also be the lord of Dan." ”

went to live in Yushan, although this section was all in Yushan, but it was said to see Xie Roujia.

"Grandmother."

"Old lady!"

The crowd shouted again.

"Will you go with me?" Old Madam Xie asked Xie Rouhui again.

Xie Rouhui cried and nodded and shook her head, just calling her grandmother.

"I confess my mistake to my grandmother on behalf of my mother, grandmother, don't be angry." She cried.

Old Madam Xie nodded.

"I see, it's embarrassing for you." She said, "Megumi, you remember. Don't admit your mistakes for others, you can't admit it, whose fault will be borne by whom. ”

She said that she withdrew the sleeves that Xie Rouhui pulled and strode away.

Everyone hurriedly got up and chased after them, but Old Madam Xie ignored them.

"Old lady, you are tired, persuade, persuade."

"Old lady, it's a mother and daughter. How can there be such a trouble. ”

Everyone pulled Mrs. Xie and said.

This incident was still considered by them to be the anger of the mother girl. Old Madam Xie smiled and closed the curtain.

"Let's go." She said.

……………………………………………….

When the sky was bright, Shao Mingqing entered the mine and first looked at yesterday's workload.

“… Only these rice sands? He said, looking at the piled up of cinnabar.

"That's pretty good." Overseer said. "It's been more than ten years since there has been a mirror sand here. It's luck to be able to produce bean paste. ”

That's not just a scrap mine.

For the Xie family, which is dedicated to medicine, literature, temples, Taoist mansions, and other places. This kind of sand is really too lazy to look at.

Shao Mingqing threw down the broken sand in his hand, clapped his hands, and looked up at the big valley.

"Young Master. Master Shao is here. ”

Suddenly, someone shouted.

Master Shao?

Shao Mingqing turned his head in surprise and saw a middle-aged man striding over, he was in his forties, wearing luxurious clothes, his eyebrows were arrogant, his gait was majestic, and he had the bearing of the head of the family.

This is Shao Mingqing's father, the current head of the Shao family, a big salt merchant in Yuzhou, Shao Yong.

Seeing the smile on his father Shao Mingqing's face, he hurried over to meet him.

"Father, why are you here?" He said, "Did you come to see me?" ”

Shao Yong smiled and reached out to pat Shao Mingqing's shoulder.

"Well, it's a lot stronger." He said.

Shao Mingqing made a strong posture.

"Father, I can carry a piece of ore on my back and go." He said.

Shao Yong laughed.

"Not bad, not bad." He said.

Shao Mingqing asked him to sit down in the pergola, and asked the overseers to serve tea, but Shao Yong waved his hand to stop him.

"Don't be busy, I'm here to take you away." He got straight to the point.

Shao Mingqing smiled.

"Father, aunt and uncle are looking for you, right?" He asked.

When Xie Rouqing came over, he had already told Mrs. Xie that Mrs. Xie suspected that Mrs. Xie came to the mine because she was angry because of her own demagoguery, but Mrs. Xie was angry, but it was a big deal, he just didn't see it with his own eyes, and he could think of the anger of his uncle Second Master Xie.

"If it's just because Mrs. Xie doubts you, Father naturally won't come." Shao Yong said, "It's just that yesterday, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie tore their faces. ”

Torn face? What do you mean? Is it because of this, because of yourself? Shao Mingqing was a little surprised.

Yesterday's incident happened in the Xie family's house, and even the Xie family's mansion has not spread, let alone the mine.

Shao Yong said the matter simply, Shao Mingqing looked stunned, and it was a little complicated.

"Old lady, why should she?" He said.

"Old lady, she doesn't need to know what she is for, this matter is already like this, so you don't stay in this Yushan." Shao Yong said.

"Then father, are you supporting Mrs. Xie?" Shao Mingqing asked.

Shao Yong smiled.

"Isn't that clear?" He said, "Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Xie, Mrs. ”

He accentuates his tone on the old word.

Shao Mingqing was silent for a moment.

"Mingqing." Shao Yong said, "Actually, there is no point for you in this Xie family, but it's nothing, this family business can be accomplished, if not, your father and I can't support you." ”

Shao Mingqing smiled.

"Yes, father, you not only raised me, but also indulged me." He said, "From childhood to adulthood, you have pampered me in every way, and this pampering does not mean eating and drinking, but the heart. ”

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and patted his heart.

"Father, what you asked me to do, it was what I liked to do, and it was never what you liked."

Shao Yong laughed.

"That's not how it should be." He said.

"I originally thought it should be, but when I came to the Xie family, I realized that it wasn't." Shao Mingqing said, "Don't hide it from my father, I used to be quite content, and I always had some sad thoughts. ”

Shao Yong sighed.

"And now?" He asked.

Shao Mingqing looked at his father.

"Not anymore, and now I know how precious I have." He said.

Shao Yong laughed again and reached out to punch Shao Mingqing.

"You kid, this mouth is getting worse and worse." He said, smiling again, "Say, you've praised me so much, what are you going to do?" ”

Shao Mingqing smiled.

"Father, I'm not leaving." He said.

Shao Yong's expression became solemn.

"You go now, I have a way to ease the relationship between you and Mrs. Xie, although it is impossible to become in-laws, but it will never become an enemy, but do you know what the result will be if you don't leave?" He asked.

Shao Mingqing nodded.

"If I don't leave, it means that I and Mrs. Xie will never turn around, and from the moment I don't leave, the Shao family will cut off relations with me, and after Mrs. Xie dies in the future, I will be kicked out of the Xie family, so that in Pengshui, in Yuzhou, and in Bashu, there will be no place for me." He said.

Shao Yong nodded.

"That's right, it seems that you know it very well." He said, "Then you still choose not to go?" ”

Shao Mingqing nodded.

"Father, I originally thought that there was a desperate situation and a desperate road in this world, and I always warned myself not to let myself fall into this situation, but now I feel that there is no desperate situation in this world, as long as you want to go, as long as you can go, you will definitely be able to go through." "So, I want to take a walk." ”

Shao Yong nodded and stood up with a smile.

"Okay, you're right, I'll let you do what you like, as long as it's your choice, I won't stop it, but the consequences have nothing to do with me." He said, "I hope that when the time comes, you will not resent your father for being ruthless." ”

Shao Mingqing shook his head.

"Of course not, since I dare to do it myself, I dare to do it myself." He said.

Shao Yong nodded, patted Shao Mingqing's shoulder, and let out a long sigh.

"Mingqing, I'm a little curious, what gives you the confidence to make you...."He asked, before the words fell, he suddenly heard a loud singing voice from the mountain.

In fact, the sound of the trumpet has always been there, but at this moment, the sound of the trumpet suddenly became louder, as if a force was injected into it.

Shao Yong couldn't help but stop talking, and looked up the mountain in surprise, and the miners, who were lined up and down in a long line, like black lines on white paper, writhed as if they were alive.

Someone was passing through them.

Shao Yong narrowed his eyes and saw one of the fast-running figures, which brought the seemingly static team to life.

"Hey, hey! Hey, hey! Turn over! Hey, hey! Hey, hey! Turn over! ”

The sound of the trumpet became louder and louder as it got older, and in addition to the man's rough roar, a shrill female voice became more and more obvious.

"Hey, hey! Walk forward, go forward, go forward! Hey, hey! Big stone to and from small stone king! ”

"Hey, hey! The Thousand Jin Stone King is not heavy! Hey, hey! Walk forward, go forward, go forward! ”

"Hey, hey! Walk forward, go forward, go forward! Hey, hey! Walk forward, go forward, go forward! ”

Shao Yong's salt farm naturally also has a trumpet, but at this moment, listening to the trumpets one by one, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, and forgot what he wanted to say for a while, just listening to the trumpet and looking at the valley in front of him.

The figure on the valley rushed down, and soon arrived in front of him, Shao Yong didn't see what the person looked like, but he saw the person jump up and raise his hand at the same time.

Shao Yong subconsciously turned to one side, and Shao Mingqing beside him reached out to catch the thrown thing.

"Buy road money!"

A crisp female voice swept past her ears, and at the same time, the figure also crossed over.

Shao Yong came back to his senses, turned his head to look at his son, and saw that he was holding a mangosteen in his hand.

"What was that?" Shao Yong asked, turning his head to look at the mouth of the valley.

The figure was long gone, and if it weren't for the sound still echoing in his ears, he would have thought he was dazzled.

Shao Mingqing turned the mangosteen in his hand and looked at Taniguchi, his eyes as bright as the sun.

"That's not something." "That's a person, a real person," he said. ”
