25. Chapter 25
Jiang Xuewen has been an official for many years, although he is patriotic and enthusiastic, but he still has the kung fu of being moody, that is, although his face has not changed, he is very surprised in his heart.
originally thought that Huo Nineteen's father, even if he was an ordinary person, should be dressed in gold silk embroidery, and the delicate and extravagant boy was. Why are you seeing ordinary people in Kyoto City?
Seeing that Sister Yin invited someone in, he was followed by a beautiful woman in her forties and a young girl who still had charm, all of whom wore half-new cotton clothes like him, and there was no grace. Jiang Xuewen's injustice in his heart and arrogance on his face were less. He has always been a pity for the poor and the old, who dares to squeeze in but can't bear to hide it, the officials and the people, he prefers to help the people, the poor and the rich, he prefers to help the poor. It is because of the praise of the people outside him.
At this time, the coachman of the Huo family had helped bring in two jars of wine and a jar of pickles, and brought in two big roosters and four black chickens, a basket of red-skinned eggs, and half a fan of pork.
Huo Dazhuan came forward with an oiled paper bag, his face was full of inwipement, and he said in a rough voice: "The two jars of wine are home-brewed, the jars of pickles are the craftsmanship of my family, and those livestock are all raised by our own family, and they are fat." Stuffed the oil paper package into Jiang Yu's hand: "The three girls put it away, this is roast chicken, I think Jiang Yushi can love to eat it." ”
Huo Jiu is not a good person, and he is ashamed to see the Jiang family, this time he is already showing goodwill, a group of people and two veiled girls, only Jiang Wei's dress and body are familiar, he has to talk to Jiang Yan first.
Jiang Yu took it with a smile, handed the roast chicken to Bingsong, and first bent her knees to give a salute to Huo Dazhuan and the women and girls behind him.
Huo Chuliu also covered his face with a veil, revealing thick eyebrows and big eyes, eagerly stepped forward to take Jiang Yan's hands, bent his knees, and looked at her curiously. Jiang Yu also smiled and saluted with her.
Jiang Xuewen said: "I learned that Mrs. Huo came to the cold house today, and she specially bathed and burned incense and swept the couch to welcome her. Old lady, ma'am, please come in. ”
Although Huo Dazhuan is illiterate and honest, he is not stupid, Jiang Xuewen said politely, isn't he telling him how Huo Nineteen can do evil?
A good person was sent to prison, and he wanted to be released by his in-laws to take a bath on the first day, he was about the most aggrieved old man in the world......
Huo Dazhuan couldn't find a crack to drill, so he cheekily greeted Jiang Xuewen and entered the house.
The guests and hosts in the two compartments sat down, and Jiang Yan, Jiang Chenfeng, Jiang Wei and Jiang Jiao politely saluted the guests.
Jiang Xuewen said politely: "Let Mrs. Huo laugh, these are the four children of the old man." ”
"Where, where. Jiang Yushi is too humble. Huo Dazhuan was very cramped.
Zhao gave Huo Chuliu a look, Huo Chuliu hurriedly stepped forward and heartily saluted Jiang Xuewen, Tang and Jiang Yan's sisters.
Huo Dazhuan said with a grin: "He is the old girl of my family, called the sixth junior high." ”
Jiang Wei raised her eyebrows, Huo Nineteen, Huo Chuliu, the names of the children of the Huo family are all from the days?
Bing Pine and Phantom Frost served tea, and Huo Dazhuan and Zhao were busy thanking them.
Jiang Xuewen's face did not change, nor did he speak first, as if he was thinking about something. He didn't speak, and Tang was naturally silent.
For a while, the atmosphere in the front hall was solemn, and the two families were relatively speechless.
In the end, Huo Shijiu did something wrong at the beginning, Huo Dazhuan thought that stretching his neck and shrinking his neck was a knife, so it was better to be more simply, so he simply stiffened his head and said: "Jiang Yushi, can I say a few words to you alone?" ”
Jiang Xuewen was stunned for a moment, looked at Huo Dashuo's eyes, and said, "It's okay." Lead him to the west side: "Please." ”
Huo Dazhuan got up and answered, turned around and asked Zhao to sit first, and then went inside.
Although the Tang family hated Huo Nineteen, seeing that Huo Dazhuan and his wife were honest people, they couldn't bear to be embarrassed, and said to the Zhao family with a smile: "They go to talk, why don't we go to the side hall to rest, just stay here for something." ”
Zhao smiled and bowed his head, and went to the back room with Huo Chuliu with Tang, Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan and Jiang Jiao.
Jiang Chenfeng was inconvenient for the female dependents to be in one place, so he went back to the room.
There is no foreign man here, Huo Chuliu took off the veil first, and said with a smile: "Wearing this stuffy panic." The curious big eyes only stared at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan only didn't see it, and took off the veil with Jiang Yan.
Huo Chuliu stared at her face for a moment.
Zhao got up and took Jiang Yan and Jiang Yan's hands, and said, "The girl of Jiang Yushi's family is really outstanding. ”
Jiang Yan held her breath for her sister in her heart, only smiled coldly, withdrew her hand and said, "Thank you Mrs. Huo for your compliment." "If he wasn't outstanding, would Huo Nineteen be so coercive?
Zhao sensed the other party's emotions and lowered his eyes.
Jiang Wei smiled and stood aside silently. Once again, the scene cooled down.
Seeing this, Tang thoughtfully talked to Zhao about some family shortcomings, such as how much land the family planted, how many cows in the field and other topics, finally made Zhao feel less like sitting on pins and needles.
Jiang Wei glanced at Bing Song out of the corner of her eyes, and Bing Song immediately understood her head and quietly retreated.
At the same time, in the middle of the west side, the two entered the door one after the other, and Huo Dazhuan landed on his knees with a thud.
Jiang Xuewen heard the movement behind him, but he didn't look back, standing in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the quiet front yard outside the half-open lattice fan.
Huo Dazhuan said guiltily: "Jiang Yushi, there are thousands of mistakes, they are all the bastards of my family." I'll leave it here for now, can't I compensate you! Dong Dong kowtowed three times, and then said: "You also have children, as parents, who can be ruthless to attack children?" I know that Huo Nineteen is not good, I have made up my mind several times and three times, I want to kill him with medicine, or I will kill him, but I can't do it. Nineteen He wasn't like that in his early years! When he was young, he was sensible and filial, his younger brother and sister liked him, and even his neighbors praised him. I don't know how he got like this. ”
Speaking of this, Huo Dazhuan was already choked up, "Jiang Yushi, I am a rough man, I don't know how to teach children, after all, Huo Nineteen is crooked, but I still don't want the white-haired person to send the black-haired person, I hope the nineteenth can learn well." He has a strong temper and never listens to anyone, what I say to his mother, he will turn a deaf ear, but he treats the third girl sincerely and is willing to listen to her. As a father-in-law, I can't tell my daughter-in-law these words, so I just beg Jiang Yushi to talk to the third girl, and after getting married, I will persuade the evil obstacles. If he is willing to learn well and stop doing evil, I will eat a long fast with her mother in this life, set up an immortal tablet for the three girls, and we will burn incense every day to bless her with peace and happiness for a lifetime, even if I die in the future, I will become a cow and a horse, and I will repay her great kindness! ”
When Huo Dazhuan knelt down and pleaded, Jiang Xuewen kept his back to him, only to hear his voice choked and sincere, and took pity on his simple people, turned around, as if he had just found him kneeling, supported him with both hands, and said with a smile: "Why does Old Lady Huo need to be like this." As soon as the emperor's golden words came out, you and my in-laws were decided. In the future, when Sister Fu enters the door of the Huo family, I still expect you and Mrs. Tai to take care of it more, I should ask you two to do it. ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's us who climbed." Huo Dazhuan was afraid that Jiang Xuewen would reprimand and refuse, but this time he finally put his mind at ease, and admired Jiang Xuewen in addition to guilt, "Don't worry, my family's evil obstacle can be fortunate to welcome your family's daughter through the door, which is the blessing that our Huo family has cultivated for several lifetimes, not to mention, I and Nineteen will only treat her as my own girl!" Ask Jiang Yushi, don't tell the three girls what I just said. ”
Jiang Xuewen smiled and bowed his head, narrowed his eyes because of the smile, hid the emotions in his eyes, and said politely: "That's natural." ”
