Chapter 197: Aunt? Godmother? Or......

Hui Niang's new clothes, the material is not very bright, but every stitch and thread are sewn very densely, her needlework female red is extremely exquisite, from the selection of materials to tailoring, to sewing, all reflect the intentions.

After wearing it on Shen Xi's body, the clothes were extremely decent, as if they were tailor-made for Shen Xi, and they fit many times better than the clothes made by Zhou.

Shen Xi put it on, and immediately felt a lot warmer.

Zhou Shi looked at it and sighed lightly: "It's so good-looking, my sister's craftsmanship really doesn't have to be picked, if my sister doesn't open a pharmacy and goes back to open a tailor shop to make clothes for people, business is still good." ”

Hui Niang also looked at Shen Xi and smiled slightly: "Sister smiled." ”

Lu Xi'er looked a little jealous, pulled Hui Niang's clothes, and asked, "Mother, why didn't I have it?" ”

Hui Niang didn't know how to answer, Zhou had already relieved her: "Xiao Xi'er, you don't have to be envious, your mother won't do it for you, and your aunt, your aunt's craftsmanship is no worse than your mother." Come here, I'll find a ruler to measure for you, and change this one a little bit, so you can wear it on you. ”

When measuring Lu Xi'er's size, Zhou was a little complacent, "Fortunately, I have the foresight, and the color I choose can be worn by both boys and girls." ”

This can make Lin Dai jealous.

Although she has a lot of new clothes at home, and the Zhou family is even more attentive to her than Shen Xi on weekdays, but now the Zhou family treats Lu Xi'er as a baby, but she has put her as the future daughter-in-law aside, which makes her a little difficult to accept for a while.

Shen Xi put on the new clothes that Hui Niang specially made for him, so he was naturally reluctant to take them off, so he stood there and watched, seeing Lin Dai pouting, leaning into her ear and saying, "Little daughter-in-law, now you know who is good to you, right?" ”

Lin Dai snorted lightly, but the little head melon unconsciously lowered, and felt nostalgic again.

People have mothers, but I don't have ......

……

……

Taking advantage of the fact that it was not dark, Shen Xi was under the leadership of Shen Mingjun. Go to the school to find Feng Huaqi to "thank the teacher". In the eyes of the two families, if it weren't for Feng Yanqi's discernment, Shen Xi would not have participated in the county exam at the age of ten.

If you don't try, you won't have a chance to pass.

Feng Yanqi is worthy of being a senior teacher here in Fucheng. This time, the three students he sent for the exam all passed the county exam, and for the other two, Feng Yanqi didn't feel much surprised, after all, his qualifications are limited, and it is really difficult to say that he can pass the government exam and the hospital exam next. On the contrary, it was Shen Xi. He has always had high hopes, and after learning that Shen Xi successfully passed the county examination, his face was full of old relief.

"Sir, there are some gifts here, please accept them." Shen Mingjun gave a generous gift in person.

Feng Yanqi glanced at Shen Xi and sighed lightly: "It's not proper, it's not ......."

Shen Xi smiled and persuaded: "Sir, as the so-called courtesy is still exchanged, you taught me knowledge, and also taught me the truth of how to behave in the world." Now that the student has made a little progress in his studies, you should accept the gift. ”

Feng Yanqi couldn't help but laugh when he heard it: "I really can't screw you, that thing is old and rotten and accept it first." Today, why don't you stay and let the teacher invite you, the student, to a light meal? ”

Shen Xi shook his head: "It's not appropriate, if Mr. eats, he can't drink, and the students won't drink, which will inevitably disappoint Mr." So it's better for the gentleman to eat by himself. ”

When Shen Xi said these words, he also fully considered his identity as a child. Try to be as unscrupulous as possible, so that even if there is a slight confrontation, Feng Yanqi will only laugh when he hears it.

Sure enough, Feng Yanqi had a smile on his face when he heard it, and he told Shen Mingjun again. Shen Mingjun said that there was still something to do at night and he couldn't stay.

On the way home, Shen Mingjun was in a trance.

He had asked Zhou about the printing workshop before, and was going to go over to keep vigil at night. Zhou sent rice and vegetables to the courtyard of Wang's mother and son, and by the way, when her husband took Shen Xi to thank him, he had an explanation, and Shen Xi was very happy when he came back. Prepare for a feast.

The implication is that the pharmacy is full of women and children, and it is not very suitable for him to go there together.

"Dad, you don't have to think about it, it's actually just a meal in the past, it's not a big deal!" Shen Xi found that Shen Mingjun was a little worried, so he comforted him

Among them, there is not only the unpleasant quarrel between him and his wife after returning to Fucheng because of Wang's affairs, but also the fact that Wang always asks him to do this and that, which is annoying. Shen Mingjun has always followed the Confucian code of conduct that the eldest brother is the father and the eldest sister-in-law is the mother, and he has always respected the Wang family, who knows the reality but ruthlessly gave him a slap in the face, he doesn't know how to deal with the current situation.

When I got home, it was sunset, and Zhou came back early and didn't stay at the pharmacy.

Shen Mingjun asked in surprise: "Lady, aren't you ...... at night?"

Zhou glanced at Shen Mingjun: "In front of my sister-in-law, if I say that our family eats, my sister-in-law will definitely bring Da Lang over, and there is no shortage of their two pairs of chopsticks at home, but if so, the feeling of our family reunion will be gone." The concubine came back and ate with Xianggong, and asked Xiaolang to accompany his Aunt Sun and Aunt Xie for a while. ”

Shen Mingjun had a simple and happy smile on his face, just now he felt that his wife didn't pay enough attention to him, and he didn't even say a nice word when he came back, but now seeing his wife's gentle and charming appearance, he has the feeling of being the head of the family again.

……

……

After dinner, Shen Xi and Lin Dai were rushed to the pharmacy early, and on the first day of returning from Ninghua, they even divided dinner into two halves.

Xiao Bisheng is newly married, and Shen Xi can understand that his father and mother want to be warm, after all, she has not seen her for more than a month, even if Zhou is pregnant now, she still has infinite affection for her husband.

But Lin Dai was a little confused, she was at an ignorant age, and she kept looking back when she went out, she wanted to find out what her father and mother were doing when they were locked in the house on weekdays.

"Xiaolang, eat more, this is a cow slaughtered in the west of the first heavenly city...... It is said that he broke his leg, and he couldn't be cured well, so he simply killed and ate the meat, but it was expensive. ”

Hui Niang's side is a hot pot banquet, Hui Niang and Xie Yun'er are there, plus a few maids and little Lori, there are many people, and the atmosphere is much better than at home.

When I was at home before, I saw my father and mother looking at me affectionately, and I looked back at you, that kind of sympathetic and lingering way of showing affection made Shen Xi really unbearable.

Shen Xi asked, "Auntie, what's going on with the silver horn?" I didn't hear you talk about it when I came back this time. ”

Hui Niang continued to put meat in Shen Xi's bowl: "I have discussed with your mother, this time I will come back and let you concentrate on preparing for the government test, and you don't have to worry about business matters." After all, aunt doesn't rely on you for everything, and she has to learn to be independent......"

Xie Yun'er interjected: "Sister." Does Xiaolang help you a lot on weekdays? ”

"That's not it."

Hui Niang smiled happily, "Xiaolang is very capable, and there are always some whimsical ideas in his little head, whether it is a printing workshop, a pharmaceutical factory, or a silver number. Including the boat and carriage and horse shops that are being prepared, they are all thought up by him. Sister, you've been with him for so long, and you haven't noticed? ”

Xie Yun'er shook her head slightly, with a shallow smile on her cheeks: "I only know." Xiaolang is naughty and mischievous on weekdays, he ...... She always calls me my sister, not my aunt. ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "Because you are very young...... If you call it an aunt, you will look old. ”

Xie Yun'er pursed her lips and smiled, no matter what era a woman is, others can't be wrong to praise her for being young and beautiful. But Hui Niang was slightly dissatisfied: "Xiaolang, listen to what you mean, you always call me aunt, do you dislike me for being old?" ”

"yes." Shen Xi said with a smile.

Hui Niang glanced at Shen Xi and said angrily: "Bai hurts you." But he involuntarily picked up the beef slices and sent them to Shen Xi's bowl.

Eaten. Xie Yun'er went home, Hui Niang was afraid that something would happen to her on the road, so she asked Xiu'er to give her a ride, in fact, the security of the city was very good during this time, and this was just to prevent it.

Zhou didn't come at night, Shen Xi and Lin Dai could choose whether to go back to sleep or not, of course Shen Xi wanted to stay, so that he could ask about Hui Niang's business at night.

Hui Niang discussed with the Zhou family not to distract Shen Xi, but after all, there was a "little secret" between Hui Niang and Shen Xi, that is, the "private meeting in the boudoir" in the middle of the night when no one was around.

Very early, Shen Xi washed up and returned to the room. I told the story to the two little Lori, and I told them what I had seen and heard all the way back to Ninghua this time, until I put the two little Loli to sleep, and then I sneaked to the door of Hui Niang's room.

I just knocked it. Hui Niang opened the door from the inside.

"Xiaolang, I knew you would come." Hye-niang had a smile on her face.

Shen Xi entered the house, Hui Niang's boudoir was already very familiar to him, he had been away for more than a month, and the furnishings inside had not been moved, which showed that Hui Niang was a nostalgic person. I don't like to change anything easily.

Shen Xi said casually: "Fortunately, my mother didn't come, otherwise she would have to take me and Dai'er back, and you might not be able to find a chance to go out at night." ”

Hui Niang first took out the account book in the drawer and handed it to Shen Xi, while she went out by herself, and after a while, she came in with a basin of hot water, ready to wash Shen Xi's feet.

"Auntie...... No, I washed it before I went into the room. As soon as Shen Xi said a word, he looked at his feet, and in order to prevent making a noise when he left the room, he ran in barefoot.

Hui Niang had a slight loss on her face: "My aunt has no son, and she has always treated you as her own son...... Now that you have a chance, you have to help me with advice, and my aunt will repay you with something. ”

After speaking, let Shen Xi sit down, squat down and wash Shen Xi's feet.

Shen Xi felt a little reluctant in his heart.

As he grows up day by day, in fact, it is impossible for him and Hui Niang to always meet in such a secret, Hui Niang probably also thought that in another year or two, Shen Xi would understand the affairs of men and women, and he would no longer be able to get along as he did today, so while Shen Xi was still young, he did what he could.

"Aunt, it's been more than a month, why hasn't the silver ticket been issued yet?"

Shen Xi tried his best to put his mind on business, because Hui Niang's appearance was too tempting, and he couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart after seeing it.

Hui Niang raised her head and shook it gently: "You are not here, I didn't dare to print the silver ticket...... What you taught my aunt, my aunt is afraid that she will be mistaken. I remember you once said that we can't print out silver tickets in advance, but we have to collect one or two silver bills and print one or two silver tickets, and the slightest mistake may bring down our silver number business......"

"Auntie won't be relieved until you come back!"
