Shuqing got into the carriage in a happy mood, with a relaxed smile between her eyebrows.

Ah Dai was puzzled, and there was a hint of indignation: "Miss Yao has a posture of no one in her eyes, why should the girl accommodate her so much?" Even if she has a backer, our aunt and grandmother are also the most favored lady in the Guogong Mansion, and she still loves the girl so much. ”

Mother Lu frowned, but she didn't speak, she wanted to hear what her girl had to say.

Shuqing also frowned: "Sister Yao'er is only seven years old, how can she know what no one is in her eyes?" As a cousin, I am older than her, so I naturally love her more and tolerate her more. Also, the rights and wrongs of the Guogong Mansion are also what you can say nonsense? Trouble comes from the mouth, what trouble is caused, don't say that I can't protect you, I can't say that I will be dragged down by you. ”

Ade's face turned pale: "Yes, girl, the slave knows that she is wrong." ”

Mother Lu nodded with satisfaction, the girl is her support for the rest of her life, if she is also a shallow and brainless person like Zhou, she has no hope.

On the way back, Shujie's brows furrowed, and his face looked sad. The neighbors he met along the way didn't even dare to greet him, muttering, "Laifu, what's wrong?" "Is there something wrong with that shameless showman? ”

What everyone didn't know was that they turned around and entered the Xia family's courtyard, and when they saw Sister-in-law Ajuan who was sitting in the hall talking to Mother Liu, her face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny, and she was replaced with a relieved smile: "Mr. Hu promised Young Master Jie to help me with this." ”

Ajuan's sister-in-law looked at Shujie embarrassedly: "Brother Jie, I still want you to worry about this kind of dirty thing, really, really ......" When she married on Xitang Street, Shujie was only eleven or twelve years old, it can be said that she grew up watching Shujie, and now their family has provoked peach blossoms. Shujie, a half-grown child, helped with ideas, and asked the chief dart to help them, isn't it embarrassing?

In addition, Ajuan's sister-in-law is also a clever person, and it can be seen that Mother Liu is an "upper-class person" who respects the rules, and she was entrusted by the golden prince to take care of the three brothers and sisters of Shu Yao.

Shujie smiled and waved his hand: "Sister-in-law Ajuan, don't be too outside, which family hasn't needed the help of the neighbors yet?" You and Brother Laifu have helped us a lot in the past day. ”

Sister-in-law Ajuan is no longer polite, and it is good to keep her feelings in mind. There is no need to talk about it all the time, she spends more effort to take care of the Xia family's tofu shop is serious.

Just as the big girl came in to inform the people who gave New Year's gifts to Beijing, Ajuan's sister-in-law and Laifu hurriedly stood up. One after the other, they went back to their yard.

The three Shu Yao brothers and sisters glanced at each other strangely, the New Year's gifts sent by Uncle Jin and Aunt Lan had arrived half a month ago, who was this?

Walking out of the hall, a man dressed as a housekeeper of a large family stepped forward and presented a gift list with both hands. There was arrogance in his demeanor and tone: "Young Master Xia, this is the New Year's gift prepared by the second lady of our Anguo Mansion, and it is a good brocade and leather." He really couldn't figure it out, the Xia Mansion was broken, but after all, it was the second lady's maiden family, and it was not surprising to send some New Year's gifts every year. It's strange why there is one more this year, or live in a poor and sour civilian street? The person in charge is still a half-sized child?

Shujie didn't care about the man's attitude, and just thanked him lightly. Liu's mother quickly prepared a return gift. How could the steward not be surprised when he looked at the basket that was full and the gift slip in his hand? I was stunned. This......? Not only is there a return gift (Xia Mansion has never returned a gift), but the gift is not thin. He couldn't help but put away his contempt, which poor sour family always had these things? But...... I'm so confused!

Although most of the people living on Xitang Street are poor, the Chinese New Year is still full of laughter and crackling. Same as in previous years. Those who migrated to Yulin Town from other places made their own unique "New Year's dishes" and "New Year's snacks", and also brought a bowl of Xia's yard to the children to taste with great interest.

In her previous life, Shu Yao was very disdainful of these "poor people's things". My mother once said that food is a kind of culture, and you can understand the differences in customs, thoughts, and habits of people in different regions through food. Giving food to each other is also a kind of heart-to-heart exchange, people like to be good friends with you, so they make food snacks to share with you.

There are two more empty dishes and chopsticks on the Xia family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner table, which are prepared for Xia Linxuan and Donnie Yen.

looked at the family members on the table: eldest brother, younger brother, Aunt Mei, Xiu Tao, and Mother Liu, who is extra in this life. Shu Yao was very emotional, and there were tears in her eyes, in this life, she must protect this family...... She even wondered if she could be born a few months earlier. Won't my father die? She would have stopped Daddy from hunting that day.

Seeing his sister's tearful eyes, Shujie is also uncomfortable, I really miss my father! At this time of year, my mother is busy making a big table of his and his younger siblings' favorite food, and then my father and mother look at them with a smile and say that I wish them more wisdom, health, and happiness in the new year.

The past cannot be traced......

Now, he is the pillar of this family, the backbone of the family, and his younger brothers and sisters are all he has, and he wants to take over the burden of his father and mother and take on this family. Shujie raised the cup with soy milk in his hand: "Come, Yao'er, Wen'er, let's first toast Mother Liu and Aunt Mei, and thank them for their care." ”

Shu Yao and Shu Wen stood up, holding their cups in their small hands, and followed Shujie and said, "Mom, Aunt Mei, you have worked hard. ”

"Eh, eh," Liu's mother pressed the corner of her eye with a cotton towel excitedly: "In this family, with you, my mother is very happy, not hard." ”

Aunt Mei's eyes were also red: "Young master, the girl has tormented me, in fact, you took in our mother and daughter, without you, Xiutao and I still don't know what to do." ”

Shujie said to his younger siblings again: "Yao'er, Wen'er, eldest brother wishes you more wisdom, health, happiness and happiness in the new year!" ”

Listening to the familiar words, Shu Yao and Shu Wen put down the cups in their hands and threw themselves into Shu Jie's arms together: "Big brother-"

Shujie hugged his younger siblings tightly, and his voice was choked: "We all have to be healthy, happy, and happy, so that our fathers and mothers can rest assured in the spirit of heaven." ”

"Hmm," the Shu Yao sister and brother nodded heavily in Shu Jie's arms.

Shujie took his younger siblings and gave a toast to the two empty seats: "Father and mother, you can rest assured, I will take care of Yao'er and Wen'er, and we will all take care of it." ”

……

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, she returned to her parents' house alone, but did not return to Xitang Street at night. It is said that they moved directly to the backyard of the Xia family's tofu shop to live, and some people said that they had signed and left the book.

Laifu's brows furrowed more and more tightly, and there was no joy on his face during the New Year.

The nephew of Aleppo on the street is also working in the Xinyi Dart Bureau, and when he came to pay New Year's greetings to Aleppo, he quietly revealed a news: because of the scandal with the Xiucai lady, Laifu was dismissed by the dart bureau a few days ago, and the young master of the Xia family came to help intercede but failed.

What's worse is that during that time, Laifu was so distracted that he lost the object that the guest wanted to hold a dart, and he had to pay 200 taels of silver. Now I only lost 50 taels, and I still owe 150 taels.

Alyopa's eldest grandson immediately thought: was dismissed a few days ago? Wouldn't it be the time when I went out with Young Master Jie and came back together, crying with a sad face? This time, Fu Zhen was miserable by the talented lady. The family is scattered, not to mention the errands that make people blush, and they still owe a lot of debts!

Soon, there were people on Xitang Street and several streets before and after talking about the Laifu family and the Xiucai lady. There are those who are pure gossip, and there are those who rejoice in calamity. But it's more for the blessing of injustice, scolding the talented lady.

People in the market have no spare money to have fun, and it has become a great pleasure to talk about right and wrong. The east family, the west family is short, the south family gave birth to a son, and the husband and wife in the north house fight in the middle of the night...... It's a lot of saliva and a lot of fun to talk about. Thereupon. A little bit of news can spread like wings and fly fast.

Now it's the first month of the new year, and everyone hasn't left to work. There was a lot of time for small talk, and the news of Laifujia spread to the Xiucai lady as quickly as possible, so angry that she grabbed the broom on the kang and hit the back of the man who was struggling to gallop on her and telling her the news: "It's all you, how good is it to say that stupid and stupid second fool." What about the fragrant and spicy food, what now? My reputation has been ruined, not to mention. Do you still want to help that stunned man pay off his debts? I don't care, I won't marry him to take on debts, you promised me a fox fur collar cloak, you have to buy it for me. ”

The man was even more crazy by the broom, and his big hand ravaged the big meat ball on the chest of the talented lady and sprinted violently: "Little slut, do you have a good reputation?" Bitch still wants to set up an archway? …… But now that there is nothing left, I am really reluctant to let you marry him, and it will be inconvenient for me to miss you when the time comes. ”

The Xiucai lady was painful and refreshing, screaming, and tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, but they disappeared quickly......

After the man was satisfied, he half-squinted his eyes and leaned on the kang, grabbed the belly pocket of the Xiucai lady and wiped it casually, this little widow is really fucking good, it's a pity to give the stupid wood to Laifu, it's good to keep yourself cool from time to time. It's just that the money has been collected, how can the task be completed?

For the first time, Laifu took the initiative to find the door of the talented lady, and begged her in front of the neighbors in front of the audience, saying that since her innocence had been ruined, she was willing to be responsible, but now she owes some foreign debts, and the family affairs will be handled simply, and she will be compensated when she has money in the future.

The Xiucai lady pointed at Laifu's nose and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense here, what ruined my innocence, nothing has been done between us." You sleep like a dead pig, what can we do? ”

Laifu was "stunned": "You...... You...... You don't mean ......"

"You you, you, what are you?" Xiucai Lady stuck her waist, "You are such a big man who fell asleep in my house well, doesn't it damage my reputation?" I told you Lin Laifu, get away from me, never appear in front of the old lady, and don't pee on yourself, just like your bear, you still want to marry the old lady? Dream! ”

Laifu closed his eyes "painfully" (he was afraid that he would be too excited and show his feet, so he closed his eyes according to his younger brother Qingfu's teaching): "We really didn't ...... There is no such ...... That relationship? ”

"Nonsense!" The talented lady glanced at him with disdain, "Just you?" Do you also want the old lady to lose her body? Dream? The old lady just sees that you are stupid and wants you to raise our mother and daughter for nothing. With your stupid appearance, you can see my flower-like beauty every day, isn't it cheap for you? Who knew that you couldn't even catch a daughter-in-law who could make money, and you lost your errand and took on so many debts. I want my wife to help you pay off your debts, go die! ”

There was a "boom" around the area, and there was a lively "so that's it!" "This blessing is really wronged!" "This woman is really poisonous"......

"Go, go, what to see?" The talented lady waved her slap at the crowd of onlookers to drive away, the people in this poor and sour place just hate it, sooner or later their mother and daughter will leave here and live a rich life. Thinking of her daughter's tender beauty and the charm she trained, she felt that there was still hope for life, so let's stay up for a few more years!

At this time, Sister-in-law Ajuan, accompanied by Aunt Mei and Aunt Li, walked out from behind the crowd: "Laifu, go home, let's not get along, and Ping An left you two sugar gourds." ”

Aunt Mei also said: "The chief steward of your Xinyi Dart Bureau is waiting for you at your house, saying that the lost thing has been found, and it is the guest's own problem." The guest returned all the money you compensated, and the chief steward asked you to go back to the dart game on an errand for the fifth day of the first year. ”

Everyone congratulated Laifu in unison...... Xiucai Niangzi was stunned on the spot, and her daughter pulled her sleeve: "Mother, I want to eat sugar gourd." ”
