Chapter 43: Discussion
Xia Shuqing leaned on the couch in front of the window, looking at the lush and tall plane trees outside the window in a daze.
Sycamore is also known as green paulownia, green leaves and green dry, elegant and clean. The smooth emerald green tree trunk holds an emerald green umbrella, and the green shadow is swaying, high-spirited and dignified.
This sycamore tree is Shuqing deliberately Yang Zhou family to transplant to her yard, and the previous life of the Qing Dynasty, the Great Zhou folk also have the saying of "phoenix perched sycamore", people regard the sycamore as a symbol of auspiciousness. Every time Shuqing looked at this sycamore, he remembered the poem of Li Bai, a poet of the Tang Dynasty in his previous life: "Rather know the meaning of Luan Fengyi, and hold the chair in front of the tree."
Mother Lu walked in, followed by the little maid Ade, holding a bowl of lotus seed soup, Shuqing retracted her gaze, and asked curiously, "Mom, what kind of person do you say my second aunt is?" ”
Mother Lu waved her hand to signal Ah Dai to come out of the house, and then replied: "I heard that the Zhen family was originally a cowardly and cowardly, otherwise he would not have been sold by the Zhen family to Murong Mansion to be happy with Uncle Murong who died of illness, nor would he have been bullied by Old Madam Murong and Uncle Murong's flat wife."
Not long after the flat wife gave birth to a son, Zhen somehow fell into the pond, everyone thought she was dead, but she miraculously woke up, and after waking up, her temperament changed, not only from Murong Mansion and left, but also befriended Mrs. Weiyuan Hou, and cooperated to open the "Shizhen Zhai" with a hot business.
I heard that all the medicinal diet recipes of "Shizhen Zhai" were given by Zhen, and she also specially offered ten medicinal diet recipes to the Queen Mother who had thirst quenching disease.
At that time, the matter of the Zhen family and Murong Shangshufu almost became the hottest thing to be discussed in the capital.
Later, Zhen followed your second uncle Xia Linxuan back to Yulin Town to become a relative, but he has been very low-key since then. It is said that she injured her body when she gave birth to the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and her health has not been very good, which is probably the reason why she couldn't afford to get sick after your second uncle's accident and died so quickly. ”
Shu Qingqi said: "Medicinal diet recipe? The second aunt understands medicine? ”
Mother Lu shook her head: "Who knows? The people in Zhen's mansion, that is, her parents and brothers, all felt strange. According to herself, it was an old woman who gave her the book, but she accidentally lost the book, but fortunately she wrote down all the medicinal recipes in it. ”
"Old woman? The second aunt's luck is really good! Shuqing pouted, medicinal food is not a recipe, you can use it after memorizing it, you have to treat the symptoms, not to mention that you still have the courage and confidence to offer a prescription to the Queen Mother?
In the blink of an eye, Shuqing's eyes lit up, and when she used the knowledge of her previous life now, she also read it in a book, or the maid and mother-in-law in the past (before Lu's mother came to Xia Mansion) inadvertently mentioned it. Could Zhen be like her, a soul floating from another world? Otherwise, if a person comes back from the ghost gate, his temperament has changed, how can he suddenly know so many things that he wouldn't have done before?
Mother Lu naturally didn't know that Shuqing's mind had already turned a thousand times, and she sighed: "Who said it wasn't?" But wouldn't the good fortune of her children be better? Because of the relationship between his father and mother, it is rare to climb the golden tongue and Mrs. Weiyuan Hou, and now she has the personal care of the Queen Mother, as long as the two brothers are willing to fight, the three of them will not be bad in the future, not to mention that Miss Yao has another palace grandmother by her side. ”
Hearing this, Shu Qing thought of the graceful Shujie, the civil and military skills of Shujie in the mouths of the people he heard on the street today, as well as his care for Shu Yao, and the book that looked very similar to Shu Yao.
Think about your nerdy eldest brother and second brother who is keen on eating, drinking and having fun, alas, people are more angry than people! What if such a family is a concubine? It's not as good as the life and background of his own concubine in his previous life.
Mother Lu also thought thoughtfully: "Sister, as long as the second room is entered into the family tree, you are still brothers and sisters of the same clan, not to mention breaking the bones and connecting the tendons, their relationship with the same blood in the big house and the third room cannot be broken cleanly." On the contrary, if their status is higher in the future, the better their life will be, the more they will have to worry about their reputation, and the less likely they will be to be too alienated from our Xia Mansion and the two rooms. Sister, if you have the opportunity, you still have to get closer to Miss Yao, which is good for you and the future of the Guo family. ”
Shuqing nodded: "I know the way, it's just ......" Shuqing always felt that Shu Yao seemed to be disgusted with herself, and there was ...... Deep vigilance. But the two of them have only met twice in total, and they haven't offended her, I think it's because of their parents, right?
Mother Lu also thought of this: "Now that the second room has openly left the Xia Mansion, and there is the support of the patriarch and the clan elders, it will be difficult for the lord and wife to find trouble in the second room in the future." And the old lady never succeeded...... Belch...... Nothing has been done to them, but nothing has actually done them harm. The child is forgetful, and after a while, she will forget. ”
Shu Yao agrees with Lu's mother's point of view, where does a six-year-old child know how to hold grudges? After a long time, it will be forgotten. As long as she has a little more patience and gets more things that the little girl likes, of course, it is a novelty that Da Zhou does not have, and she is afraid that she will not be able to handle a six-year-old girl?
Shu Yao, who was sitting in his eldest brother's arms and listening to him talking to Mother Liu and Aunt Mei, suddenly felt itchy ears, isn't this Sister Nian'er talking to her again?
"Young Master, the old man once told his wife that when you first left the Xia Mansion, the fifth old lady and some elders in the clan who sympathized with him still took good care of you. Mrs. just didn't want the old man to be wronged and begged the old lady, but she didn't really want your three brothers and sisters to enter the family tree. The eldest young master, if the master and wife are still there, I think they must be willing to stay in the Xia family, but they just don't want to go back to the Xia Mansion. Hongmei recalled what Donnie Yen said back then, in such a world, people without a family can only fight alone, without relying on it, even if they are very successful, their momentum is always a little less.
Mother Liu also nodded and said, "Brother Jie, Hongmei is right, I also think that your father and mother will choose to enter the Xia family tree even if it is for you." It's not out of desperation, taking the initiative to give up the family is a matter of forgetting one's ancestors and being spurned. Moreover, now that you are in the family tree, the relationship with your eldest uncle and third uncle is just a clansman, and there are more clan uncles and uncles in the clan, as long as you treat them as ordinary elders, and the etiquette on the face can be passed. ”
Shujie looked at Shu Yao and Shuwen who were sitting on his two legs respectively: "Yao'er, Wen'er, what about you?" Would you like to? "Shujie himself is seven or eight years old, and when he is one or two years older than the current Shuyao sisters and brothers, Donnie Yen and Xia Linxuan often discuss family affairs with him, and he treats his younger brothers and sisters the same way now, they are already sensible, and they have the right to choose whether to return to the Xia family. Especially Shu Yao, Shu Jie often feels that his younger sister thinks about things more thoughtfully than him.
