Chapter 050: Protecting Each Other
Later, did Yingying tell Mrs. Fu, if she did, did Mrs. Fu believe that Xia Hanqiu didn't care anymore, that is, Yingying came to the door again, and she didn't ask again.
For her, she's done what she wants, and that's enough.
An autumn rain and a cold.
The day after my uncle left, it was like opening a hole, and when the rain rarely stopped, the autumn clothes were changed, and the winter clothes gradually came on.
Leaning in front of the window and looking at the rain curtain, Xia Hanqiu tried his best to calm himself, but the anxiety in his heart was increasing day by day, inexplicably, and he couldn't tell the reason.
There was a heavy shoulder and an extra cloak, and when I looked back, it was Ah Jiu.
"What's coming? Something? ”
Ah Jiu shook his head and looked out the window along the young lady's line of sight, "It's been raining for too long, and the maid is just a little worried that things at home will get damp." ”
"It's impossible to go down all the time, it should stop soon, what about Ru Niang? What are you busy with? ”
"Mother Ru was worried that the weather was too wet and would affect her body, so she was busy working in the kitchen, saying that she wanted to make some soup for you and her son."
"She just can't be idle, you tell everyone, as long as it's not too important, let it go out less, don't get sick in the rain, it's not easy to get sick in this weather."
"Yes, the slave is compassionate on behalf of everyone, Miss Xie."
Xia Hanqiu looked out the window and pouted, what kind of compassion, but he was worried that there would be more sick people at home to pass on to himself and Nian'er.
"Miss, a guest has come to visit, saying that it is your grandmother and aunt."
Xia Hanqiu thought she had misheard, "Grandmother and aunt? ”
"Yes, the maid saw that they were all a little tired, so let them rest in the flower hall in the front yard first."
How did my grandmother come at this time? It's not in the letter that you should prepare before the year. Will you come back to discuss your uncle's marriage with the Fu family in the next year?
Or go out in the autumn rain, the most likely time to get sick.
Hurry to the front yard. But he stopped outside the flower hall, thinking that the two in the house were his relatives. Xia Hanqiu's heart was beating a little fast.
They shouldn't dislike themselves.
No one likes troublesome people, but she is now in trouble.
"You're Qiu'er."
The words of affirmation came from the mouth of an old woman with gray hair about sixty years old, but it turned out that the old lady was anxious and could not sit still, and came to the door, and saw the child hesitating at the door.
The face that resembles his daughter is eight, how can he be mistaken, his daughter was almost the age of Qiu'er when she got married. Without...... If it weren't for the fact that her daughter was no longer there, she would be old, and she almost thought that the daughter in front of her was looking forward to happiness, not her granddaughter.
Thinking of her hard-working daughter, the old lady's whole heart was sore and sore, Jing'er wanted to hide it from her and the old lady at first, but they were not stupid, the Xia family was watched like this. How could it not feel at all.
But she would rather not know, if she doesn't know, she won't be so distressed, and if she doesn't know, she won't hate it so much.
I don't know. I don't have to bear the pain of losing my daughter again.
After knowing what Qiu'er did, she couldn't help but think that if her daughter could have the courage of her granddaughter. Isn't it so hard?
Fortunately, Qiu'er is not a soft person who is easy to bully, and she has walked out of a path by herself. It also benefited her younger brother, okay. All right!
Ke Yun, the daughter-in-law of the Xia family, who was busy walking over after hearing the voice, saw the person standing at the door, and after a little thought, she knew what she was thinking, and quickly pulled the person into the house after being sad, and motioned for her to help her mother-in-law walk to the house on the other side, "Mother, you haven't worked hard enough for you all the way?" Sit and rest, people are right in front of you, and you can't run. ”
The old lady tightly held her granddaughter's hand on her right arm, happily sat in the main seat, and said with a smile, "It's good to run, dare to run if you have the courage, she is my granddaughter, I'm not afraid that she will run away." ”
Xia Hanqiu's nose was sour, and he respectfully knelt down in front of his grandmother and kowtowed three times, "Qiu'er is not filial, which makes my grandmother worried." ”
"Compared to not knowing how you're doing, now I'm more down-to-earth, as long as you're good, my grandmother can stand it even if she has a snack, good boy, get up."
Xia Hanqiu stood up, turned to kneel down in front of Ke Yun, Ke Yun took her head and personally helped her up, "Okay, my aunt has accepted your courtesy, and my family doesn't have to pay attention to that." ”
Xia Hanqiu got up and smiled shyly, it feels good to have relatives by her side.
"Qiu'er, come and sit next to your grandmother."
In front of the elders, how could Xia Hanqiu sit in the first place, kneeling under his grandmother's side, not only listening to his grandmother's words, but also not being rude.
Ke Yun nodded secretly in his eyes.
"Where's Nian'er? Why didn't I come with you? ”
"Grandmother, Nian'er is going to the school during the day, and I asked a friend to send him to the most haode school in Huiting City."
"Is that the Miss Fu who is eye-catching with your brother-in-law?"
"Yes."
The old man likes people with rules, although the other party is the daughter of the city lord, and marrying Jing'er is definitely a marriage, but she still doesn't like the unclear between the two of them in private before they are married, and at this time, she brings a little dislike, "Qiu'er, tell me what is going on with her and your brother-in-law?" Do they often meet in private? ”
Xia Hanqiu was stunned for a moment and immediately understood, and quickly explained: "Grandmother, they have only met twice, I was there twice, the first time was when I asked people to go to Wuyang to tell my uncle Nian'er that I was here, he was worried about Nian'er, and as soon as he came, he broke into my yard directly, Yingying was also there at that time, the two just took a picture that day, and didn't say a word, the second time they met at my place, I made an introduction to the two, and my brother-in-law left, and I haven't seen it since, there is absolutely no private relationship, Yingying is not such an unruly person." ”
The old lady was happy in her heart, "Then why did she think about marrying your uncle?" ”
Xia Hanqiu thought about it for a while, and told the situation of Yingying's family, including her two withdrawals, without hiding a bit, it was better for her grandmother to know these things from her than to hear gossip from others later.
"Grandmother, can I be friends with Yingying or did she take the initiative to come to the door, do you say that a city lord's daughter wants anything? Who isn't trying to find a way to slap her? But she came to the door and said that she wanted to be friends with me, although such a girl is more assertive, but it can also be seen that she is a straightforward person, do you still hope that your second daughter-in-law is a full of twists and turns? To put it bluntly, with Yingying's family background, if she is not easy to get along with and the house is restless, what do you want to do if her noble daughter is on the shelf? What about the eldest aunt? At that time, I am afraid that it will be difficult not only for the younger uncle, but also for the eldest aunt. ”
Ke Yun smiled bitterly, as soon as she heard that Fei Ju was such a scary identity, she was worried, originally her husband accompanied her mother-in-law, she persuaded her husband to come with her, and she also wanted to touch the other party's temperament, so as to decide what to do in the future, in terms of identity, the other party was enough to suppress her immobilized, if there were more scheming, she might really have some other ideas.
The old lady has been a family all her life, and the eldest daughter-in-law's worries are not clear, and her worries are not what she is worried about.
At this time, listening to her granddaughter say this, she was a little determined, in her mind, Qiu'er can support a family at a young age, and it must not be so easy to fool, if the Miss Fu family is not good, Qiu'er should not be so obedient to her.
Besides, Jing'er has such a teacher, and it is really not possible to find someone who is soft and cowardly.
"In this way, Qiu'er, you hand a message to Mrs. Fu for me, and I will visit you tomorrow morning."
"Yes, grandmother." Picking up the teacup and sending it to her grandmother, Xia Hanqiu asked the doubts in her heart, "Didn't the letter say that we would talk about other things after the year?" Why did you and your aunt brave the rain? ”
"Who would have thought I'd run so far in this weather." The corners of the old lady's mouth were a hint of triumph, "Although there are fewer people to watch, there are still three or two, I let the old lady and your uncle and cousin go out separately in advance, and they were all transferred away before leaving with your aunt, and then we will go to the temple again and fool around." ”
No wonder people say that old children and old children, Xia Hanqiu smiled, but he also thought it was better.
"Sister." Guo Nian'an, who had recently lost weight because of his long size, walked in with a straight body like a little poplar, his warm and moist eyes swept over the two strangers, and when he came in, the maid told him that this was his grandmother and eldest aunt.
Xia Hanqiu got up and beckoned to his younger brother, "Nian'er, hurry up and give a salute to my grandmother and eldest aunt." ”
Nian'er obediently kowtowed to the two, and said, "Nian'er has seen her grandmother and aunt." ”
"Hurry up, hurry up." The old lady was busy beckoning to Guo Nian'an, she felt sorry for her granddaughter, but the old man has always attached more importance to the man who can support the court, she felt clearly about Guo Nian'an's warm Xia Hanqiu, but she just smiled and didn't go to her heart.
She can't go to her heart, as long as the Xia family still treats her as a relative, she will miss them for their goodness, and she won't pick the rest.
Guo Nianan is extremely sensitive, his heart is far from being as warm as he shows, for him who has experienced such changes, his sister is the person he is closest to and trusts, and no one else can go over.
His grandmother was too enthusiastic about him, which made him uncomfortable, like, like he was the one who was important, and his sister was secondary, and his subconscious heart went to his sister's side.
Walking up to her sister and sitting down, Guo Nianan smiled shyly at her grandmother and aunt, approached her sister and said in a voice that everyone in the room could hear: "Sister, can you not drink bone broth at night?" I want to eat fish. ”
"Nope." Xia Hanqiu refused without thinking about it, just when he was really tired of eating, and he didn't think that Weishenme, who has always been very polite, said this at this time, "You have been running around recently, and if you don't drink some bone broth to supplement nutrition, you won't be able to keep up, I still want you to grow tall in the future!" ”
Guo Nian'an coquettishly, "It's been almost half a month since I drank it, so don't drink it today, sister, you can answer me." ”
Xia Hanqiu didn't want to give in, but he didn't want to force him, so he thought about it and said, "The amount is halved, and it can't be less." ”
"Okay, it's halved, my sister is the best." (To be continued......)
