Chapter 216
Xue Fei scolded Xiaoxi with a smile and said, "I was bullied, you bullied back, you are still so excited, look at your virtue!" Come and learn to write with me! ”
Xiaoxi smiled and agreed: "Hey! ”
Xiaoxi and Xue Fei studied slowly, a day passed, Xiaoxi learned more than ten words, Xue Fei and Xiaoxi ate hot pot at night, Xue Fei sat at the table and he shook the meat in his hand, Xue Fei looked at Xiaoxi who was eating fried meat with vegetables not far away.
Xue Fei's eyes rolled, and he said evilly, "Oops! This shabu-shabu is so delicious! Joy! It's a shame you don't eat it! ”
Xiaoxi lowered his head, and he said unmoved: "Don't eat!" Anyway, I didn't learn to write the last word, so I won't eat it! It turned out that Xue Fei and Xiaoxi said that Xiaoxi was not allowed to eat until he learned all the words, but although Xiaoxi learned the last word, he couldn't write well, so Xiaoxi didn't eat the same meal as Xue Fei.
Xue Fei shook his head, he said to Xiaoxi: "Be a man, you have to be a little more lively!" Think about it, Xiaoxi, you see that you learn more than ten words a day is already very good, which means that you are very smart, but some people who are stupid than you can't learn so many words! So! You should eat and drink! ”
Xiao Xi thought about it, and when he thought about it, Xiao Xi said to Xue Fei: "I want to eat hot pot!" ”
Xue Fei looked at Xiaoxi and said, "Okay! Let's eat hot pot! Come, you sit next to me and eat hot pot together! ”
After Xiaoxi listened to Xue Fei's words, he hesitated for a moment, and then he and Xue Fei sat down at the dining table to eat.
Xue Fei looked at Xiao Xi of the hot pot and said, "That's right!" Xiaoxi, I'll ask you something! ”
Xiaoxi: "Young master, you say, what you want to know, I can tell you!" ”
Xue Fei: "You told me that my uncle doesn't like concubines, is there any reason for this?" ”
Xiao Xi lowered his head and hesitated for a while, he looked at Xue Fei and said: "Yes, in fact, I also heard the old man in the mansion tell me before, they said that when the old man was young, that is, when he was not married, he hesitated that his mother was not favored, so the old lady didn't like the old man very much." ”
Xiaoxi: "At that time, the old man's strength was not very strong, so he could only endure it, and then the old lady died, and according to the family rules, the old lady's family property was in the hands of the master, and then the old man sent out all the concubines in the house, which is also the reason why the old man didn't like his aunt's concubine." ”
After Xue Fei listened to Xiaoxi's words, he was puzzled, and he asked Xiaoxi: "You said that the master doesn't like concubines and aunts, but why did he take concubines and give birth to concubines?" ”
Xiaoxi: "This is all made by the old woman, and the old lady also wants the old man to spread the branches and leaves of the family, so she forced the old man to do this, but the old man never went to the aunt's yard again after they gave birth." ”
Xue Fei suddenly realized: "Oh! I said so! I see! Come on, let's eat! After a while, the two of us will finish eating, let's read a good book after eating, and I'll tell you a story! ”
Xiaoxi looked at Xue Fei and said, "What story will you tell?" ”
Xue Fei: "Me! I'll tell you some wacky stories then! You haven't heard of it guaranteed! ”
After Xue Fei and Xiaoxi finished eating, Xiaoxi began to clean up the room for herself in the house, Xue Fei took a bath, and then Xiaoxi also changed her clothes, Xue Fei and Xiaoxi sat on the kang bed in the living room, Xue Fei had a layer of mattress under his feet, and his feet were covered with quilts.
Xue Fei also had a small stove at hand, Xue Fei put the raw peanuts on the lid of the small stove, and Xue Fei began to tell a story to Xiaoxi: "It is said that a long, long time ago, a scholar living in a small village, he was going to take the imperial examination, and then he was rushing to take the exam..."
Xue Fei was telling the story to Xiaoxi in the house, Xiaoxi was also listening to the story attentively, time passed slowly, the night was already dark, Xue Fei looked at the house was already a little dark, he said to Xiaoxi: "We should light candles." ”
Xiaoxi turned his head, he saw that the room was indeed dark, and he said, "I'll light a candle!" With that, Xiaoxi went down to the ground and began to light candles.
After Xiaoxi lit the candle, Xue Fei lit the carbon in the brazier, Xue Fei said to Xiaoxi: "Let's continue to tell the story, so that we can tell the story on my bed, if you want, you can also spread a thick layer of mattress on the ground, you can listen to me tell the story!" ”
Xiao Xi thought about it, if he did what Xue Fei said, it would not violate the family rules, he nodded, Xue Fei helped Xiao Xi lay the mattress, and then the brazier was a little farther away from Xue Fei and them, but they could still feel the heat, Xue Fei sat on the bed, Xiao Xi sat under the bed on the mattress and listened to Xue Fei tell the story.
The coals were slowly burning and hot, Xue Fei was also boiling a pot of hot water, he talked to Xiaoxi after drinking, and when it was midnight, Xue Fei said to Xiaoxi: "That's all for my story, the two of us should also sleep!" ”
Xiao Xi saw that Xue Fei was already a little sleepy, and he said to Xue Fei, "Okay then!" ”
Xue Fei and Xiaoxi ate sweet potatoes and potatoes while telling stories that night, and after they cleaned up the room together, Xue Fei and Xiaoxi went to sleep.
Early the next morning, after Xue Fei finished eating, he came to Lin Mingyu's study again, and this time he saw Lin Mingyu.
Xue Fei looked at Lin Mingyu and said, "Uncle! ”
Lin Mingyu: "Well, how did you sleep yesterday?" ”
Xue Fei: "Very good! How does my uncle sleep? ”
Lin Mingyu: "I'm also fine, how are you doing when you go out?" ”
Xue Fei: "I thought my cousin and uncle talked about it, it seems that my cousin didn't say it, it's like this..."
Lin Mingyu: "Thank you, Xue Fei, if you hadn't said this, I would have thought something would have happened!" But what do we do next? ”
Xue Fei: "Actually, it's a very simple thing, let's see if there is anyone who can talk to this Lord Futai, if there is this person, let's take a look at the contact with the Lord of Futai, as the saying goes, thousands of people don't wear sycophants, no matter how they say that people like to listen to good words, he can't refuse our kindness!" ”
Lin Mingyu: "I do know that there is such a person, he is a colleague who used to be an official with this Futai lord, and then this person resigned from the office, and he is now a businessman, so I think he should be able to say a few words." ”。
Xue Fei: "That's okay, when the time comes, we will operate, and we will definitely be able to solve the matter of our shop." ”
After Xue Fei and Lin Mingyu discussed the matter, Lin Mingyu went to arrange things, Xue Fei went out at this time, and he returned to his yard.
