Chapter 062: Mr. Xixi (1st Update)
Seeing Su Xue take the sachet, Wanyue smiled even deeper, pointed to the sachet and said: "The magpie on this side means auspiciousness, and the plum is tough and tough, just worthy of the third sister!" ”
Su Xue looked at the sachet in her hand, the magpie plum blossom pattern was really exquisite, and she couldn't help but secretly admire that this ancient woman could practice such a pair of skillful hands.
Su Xue is the least good at embroidery, the needle is in her hand, and it can only be used to find acupuncture points, embroidery is really not something she can do.
"The sixth sister really has a heart."
Su Xue hurriedly smiled in return, and wore the sachet on her waist in front of Wanyue.
After fiddling with it like this, I realized that the fragrance in it was really chic, so I asked, "What kind of fragrance is inside?" ”
Wanyue stared and explained: "The third sister doesn't like strong fragrances, so my sister has some elegant incense powder. ”
Su Xue nodded, but the fragrance was really a little strange, she was suspicious, and wanted to lower her head slightly and sniff carefully.
At this time, Lan Zhu opened the curtain and shouted inside: "Mr. Xixi is here." ”
Su Xue was startled, immediately tidied up her appearance, sat up straight, and whispered to Miaomeng beside her: "Don't act rashly after a while, look at my eyes, you know?" ”
Miao Meng held a stack of notepads in her hand, nodded nervously, and when she saw Mr. Xixi coming into the house, she hurriedly buried her head and took a step back.
Su Xue and Wan Yue stood up in unison and saluted Old Mr. Xixi.
Mr. Xixi smiled kindly and looked at Wanyue first.
Wanyue nodded to Xuemei, and Xuemei turned around and brought Wanyue's homework to Mr. Xixi.
Su Xue secretly took a step back and glanced nervously at Old Mr. Xixi's face.
This feeling. It's like a homeroom teacher facing the homework. No, she wasn't so nervous when facing the head teacher!
After all, this old Mr. Xixi is a real ancient cultural person.
The old gentleman watched silently for a long time. Look at it quite carefully. But his face was getting better and better, and he smiled at the end. Hand back your homework to Xuemei.
"Miss Six is talented and intelligent, although she is a boudoir woman, she has a lot of feelings for the sun and the moon in the article, which is very admirable."
When Wanyue heard this, she blushed and smiled: "Mr. praised it falsely, Wanyue just saw what was said in the book, and on a whim, she just talked nonsense." ”
Mr. Xixi stroked his beard with a smile, his eyes full of appreciation.
Su Xue thought silently. Mr. Xixi praised him so much, it seems that Miss Six's homework is quasi-satisfied.
It turns out that this old gentleman likes to swallow mountains and rivers with a bold mind, and that's right, her homework this time is not bad.
I thought that one of these two people praised and the other was humble, and Wanyue's side would be over.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xixi paused, and suddenly asked: "Miss Six's article proposes 'if you have a will', but the discussion behind it is a little vague, and people want to hear it, the so-called 'will must take' in Miss Six's heart." What is the reason? ”
Wanyue bowed gently, lightly opened her teeth, and said eloquently: "The book says that people do not stand without ambition. Although Wanyue is a woman. But I don't dare to forget the precepts in the book, and I don't want to spend this life in vain. ”
Mr. Xixi's face was a little dark. But he still nodded.
Su Xue secretly glanced at Wanyue, this woman. It's really unusual, it's like a daughter born to the second wife. is not like the fourth lady, reckless and irritable.
Mr. Xixi thought for a while, and then said, "It's good to have ambitions." But if you have a will, you must take it, which is a little reluctant. If you set up an inappropriate will and take it by any means, will it not become the source of evil? ”
Su Xue gasped and looked at Wanyue in a daze, she would be very embarrassed if the old gentleman said this, right?
But Su Xue really underestimated Wanyue, Wanyue just pursed her lips and smiled after hearing this, and replied leisurely: "Women study books, not for wealth, but for Mingde and reason." Wanyue read the book and proposed, 'If you have a will, you must take it', that is, because she admires people with lofty ideals in her heart and dislikes people who do nothing, how can she have inappropriate aspirations? It will not be taken by any means. ”
Mr. Xixi stroked his beard and did not answer, and motioned for her to continue.
Wan Yue continued: "But how can things be as good as they should be? If I want it, I may not be able to do what others want. Therefore, if you have the ambition to take this statement, it is just a matter of opinion, as the so-called ruler is short, the inch is long, with the heart of the king, the meaning of the king can be. ”
Mr. Xixi finally smiled with satisfaction.
Su Xue was playing a small drum on the side, what were these two people chirping? Reciting classical Chinese?
As he pondered, Mr. Xixi had already turned his gaze to her.
Su Xue was excited, and hurriedly turned her head to look at Miaomeng, who looked like she had just woken up from a dream, and lowered her head to present the booklet in her hand to the old gentleman.
The old gentleman opened it and looked slowly, frowning more and more the more he looked.
Miao Meng also saw Mr. Xixi's face, glanced at Su Xue with anxiety, and retreated.
"Third Miss, the lesson that the contemptible people left you yesterday is about 'kindness', but Miss Three writes about tolerance for others throughout, how can you be virtuous?" Old Mr. Xixi said, looking at Su Xue with a strange gaze and a little disappointed.
Su Xue took a deep breath and replied with a light smile: "Dare to ask sir, isn't the virtue of tolerating people a virtue?" ”
Mr. Xixi said: "The amount of tolerance is indeed one of the good deeds, which is far worse than taking the initiative to do good. What's more, Miss San's article also mentions, 'Tolerate people, forgive people', can only tolerate people, not forgive, this is not a real forgiveness. ”
After hearing this, Su Xue thought for a while, stepped forward and bowed to Mr. Xixi again, and said, "Dare to ask Mr., if there is a villain who is willing to change his mind and become a new man, then should the world give him a chance?" ”
"The prodigal son will not change his money, so he can naturally give him a chance."
"But if this person has ever stolen and robbed and committed all kinds of evil, if you forgive him, wouldn't it be tantamount to admitting that the theft and robbery were all right, and also contributed to the wind of thieves?"
Mr. Xixi's face changed slightly, but he didn't speak.
Su Xue smiled and said, "So, let people go." Forgive people for taking a break. Giving him a chance to be a new person does not mean that he is forgiven for his past mistakes. Negligence is still negligence, and it should be taken as a warning. The book says. Repaying grievances with directness, rather than repaying grievances with virtue, is this principle. Therefore, Su Xue believes that tolerating people's mistakes without distorting integrity is the real virtue. And those who blindly follow the good and forgive lightly are not virtuous, but foolish. The foolish are often taken advantage of by the cunning and wicked. If aiding and abetting abuse can be regarded as virtuous, then why don't the people who worship the Buddha go to prison and release all the repeat offenders? It's called doing good! ”
When Mr. Xixi heard this, his old face darkened.
Miao Meng also panicked, Miss is just talking nonsense on weekdays, how can she say this to the respected old Mr. Xixi?
Now it's over, the third lady offended Mr. Xixi, and she, the third miss's maid, was afraid that she would not be able to eat again and walked around.
"Rough talk!"
It took a long time for Mr. Xixi to frown and spit out two words.
Su Xue's heart also cooled, and she really wanted to comment on the Tao like Miss Six reciting classical Chinese. Can this old stubborn nod in satisfaction?
Biting his lip, he was thinking about how to say it beautifully, but Mr. Xixi suddenly said, "But it's not rude." ”
After that, he handed the booklet back to Miaomeng, and reluctantly took out a sanctimonious appearance. He talked to Wanyue and Su Xue for a while, and the implication was that he was reprimanding Su Xue for not saying anything.
It wasn't until three o'clock that he finally shook his shirt and prepared to leave.
Sent away Mr. Xixi. Wanyue asked Xuemei to make another pot of fragrant tea.
Su Xue was absent-minded, and muttered to Miaomeng in a low voice, "What does Mr. mean." Are you satisfied, or are you not satisfied......"
Miaomeng didn't dare to speculate. I had to shake my head.
But Wanyue smiled lightly and said, "Mr. didn't let the third sister rewrite, so he is satisfied." ”
When Miao Meng heard this, she was overjoyed, and said to Su Xue: "Miss is really amazing, now even the second master has agreed to allow Miss to accompany the second lady to Beijing!" ”
When Su Xue heard this, she secretly screamed that it was not good, and hurriedly turned her face sideways to look at Miao Meng.
Miaomeng was so happy that she didn't react at all.
Su Xue turned her head helplessly, and sure enough, she found that Wanyue's face was pale, although Wanyue had already concealed it well, she tried her best to be expressionless, and reached out to pick up the teacup and drink it.
Wanyue had tried her best to cover it up, and Su Xue had no choice but to pretend that she didn't know what to do, so the two of them drank tea quietly and silently.
As the second master said before, this Chen Gongzi will be her second brother-in-law in the future, which means that these six young ladies have no chance.
Come to think of it, who let the second lady take the lead?
Besides, these six young ladies are still young, and the girls who have not yet reached the end of the year do not have half an advantage in this point. Even if the old lady is willing to come forward, she can't make up her mind, after all, she is not old.
In modern terms, this is nothing more than the beginning of love, early love.
But if it is really in modern times, Su Xue can also act as a bosom sister and enlighten the little sister.
Let's go out shopping together, burn some money, and watch a few healing movies, if you can't do it, you can just take a trip that you can say, maybe you can really save a lost girl......
Su Xue was immersed in it, and suddenly missed the colorful life in the modern era very much, and pulled back her thoughts and looked at Wanyue, her expression was solemn, as if she was preoccupied.
Su Xue pursed her lips, forget it, first, she can't go back, and second, Wanyue doesn't seem to be the kind of person who can accept her enlightenment.
Just thinking about it, there was a sudden noise outside the house, Su Xue frowned, why did it make such a fuss? Didn't something happen to Fu Limo?
"Miaomeng, go out and see what's going on."
Miaomeng nodded and was about to go out, but Wanyue explained in a low voice: "You don't need to go out to see it, it's the mansion that invited someone to come and see the feng shui practice." ”
What to do?
Could it be that the second wife is afraid?
This was the first thought that popped out of Su Xue's heart, after all, there was an accident in Beijing last time, which had a big impact on the second wife.
"It's better to ...... Let's go out and have a look? I feel like a lot of people out there. ”
Su Xue looked at Wanyue tentatively, thinking that Wanyue would say that the boudoir woman knows how to avoid suspicion, and don't go out lightly for the idlers to see. After all, there is a commotion outside now, and I don't know if a group of people have been invited into the house.
Unexpectedly, Wanyue's face was happy, and she immediately nodded in agreement: "I also want to go and take a look." ”
Su Xue was stunned for a moment.
Wanyue is quiet, rarely happy and sorrowful, why is he so happy this time just because he wants to see a ritual?
Wanyue had already gotten up while speaking, and Su Xue couldn't think about it anymore, so Xuemei stepped forward and opened the curtain.
It happened that a gust of wind blew in, and Su Xue looked at Wanyue's back and shivered coldly.
Coming out of the room, walking through the moon cave door and into the courtyard, I realized that there were so many people gathered outside.
Surrounded in the middle were the second master and a middle-aged man, the middle-aged man was dressed quite exquisitely, wearing a gray-brown sorcerer's crown, holding a jade ruyi, the blue ink crane was smooth and shiny, and his old face was not smiling.
It's really a daunting and profound style!
But as soon as Su Xue saw him, she thought of a deceitful hawker who ripped a rag on the side of the park path as a pennant, wrote eight-character fortune-telling on the front, and rejuvenated his hands on the reverse, and offered ten yuan per person. (To be continued......)
