Chapter 316, younger brother

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of reunion, and the whole world celebrates.

The early dynasty dropped out of the day, and each yamen had a day off.

Colleges are also closed for three to five days.

Xu Jing returned home the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, only to learn that Zeng Hua had moved out of Xu's house, lived in Nanqing Hutong, and reunited with her brother and sister-in-law.

Although he was not very willing, Xu Jing also understood that it should be so.

But after all, he still had a little worry, so after Xu Jing told his grandmother, he took the festival gift prepared for him by his grandmother into Nanqing Hutong.

Although Zeng Hua brought Ziluo and her parents when she moved in, Uncle and Aunt Qin had not yet received the order to evacuate and still helped take care of the housework in the name of helpers. Therefore, seeing Xu Jing, Uncle Qin did not inform Zeng Hua, in his opinion, the young lady is already seven years old, it is time to avoid suspicion, for this reason, he invited Zeng Fuxiang and Zeng Guixiang two brothers out to entertain guests.

But Xu Jing is here to visit Zeng Hua, what common language can he, Zeng Fuxiang and Zeng Guixiang have?

Don't look at Zeng Guixiang, who is several years older than Xu Jing, and his school age is also long, but his knowledge is definitely not as good as Xu Jing, Xu Jing chatted with him for a while and felt very bored, so he had to ask Zeng Hualai.

Zeng Hua was accompanying Chen's circle at that time, this is what Aunt Qin meant, saying that pregnant women should move around more to give birth more smoothly, but Chen's month is old after all, and it is not safe to have no one around to accompany him, so Zeng Hua took the initiative to take this job.

She likes to accompany Chen in circles while listening to Chen's stories about his hometown, not only her own, but also her neighbors and cousins, and even the new things in the village.

She is different from Zeng Rong, in her last life, she was the eldest daughter in the family, in addition to daily housework, she usually followed her friends in the village to play pigweed, pick pine needles, pick mushrooms or something, so she has a lot of playmates, and she has been out for more than a year, and she misses them a little.

Of course, what she misses most is Ouyang Si.

It's just that she can't bring this topic out directly, so she can only ask about the academy in a roundabout way, as well as how the cousins in the family are studying, and whether there is a new gentleman in the academy.

When Chen first got married, he followed her husband to do farm work, chopping firewood and collecting pigweed, etc., and knew a lot about the new things in the village, and the people in the village were also curious about Zeng Rong's sisters, and they also wanted to know if Zeng Rong had brought a letter to the family after entering Beijing, and some people even asked her if Ouyang Xiucai really fell in love with Zeng Rong, but she didn't wait for her to mention her relatives.

Chen naturally denied everything, listened more and said less, and basically didn't know anything about his own affairs.

But it's different for Zeng Hua, Zeng Hua is her sister-in-law and family, so she has nothing to hide, especially seeing that Zeng Hua likes to ask her about things in the village, she feels that Zeng Hua is much more amiable and approachable than Zeng Rong, and she is willing to talk to Zeng Hua about anything.

No, today's Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen asked Zeng Rong about coming, he had been in Beijing for half a month, and there was no news of Zeng Rong after meeting Zeng Rong in a hurry that day, and Chen was very worried about it.

In the past half a month, she has always had a sense of unreality, living in such a good house, she can eat a full meal every day, and there is meat and fish at every meal, she wears new clothes, some are still silk, and most importantly, the family also uses people.

She couldn't have imagined this a month ago. Reading.com

Drinking water and thinking about the source, she also cared about Zeng Rongzi for twelve points, wondering if she would be able to leave the palace in the future, if she could get married, and what was going on with her and the rumored Xiucai.

Zeng Hua saw that the topic was easy to get to Ouyang Si, so she didn't bother to go over to check knowing that there seemed to be someone coming to the front yard, mainly because she knew that the person who came was definitely not Zeng Rong, let alone looking for her, most likely looking for that Uncle Qin.

Therefore, when the maid beside Xu Jing entered the inner courtyard to find Zeng Hua, Zeng Hua knew that Xu Jing had come to give a gift.

"Boxing gifts?" Zeng Hua was stunned for a moment.

What kind of family is the Xu family, how could they give a gift to this side in a good manner, and it was sent by Xu Jing himself, does the eldest lady know?

Although the Chen family didn't know exactly what the Xu family was doing, they rushed to the Xu family to treat Zeng Rong and Zeng Hua so well, and the Chen family also offered the Xu family as a bodhisattva, so when she heard that the Xu family was coming to give a gift, she pulled Zeng Hua into the front yard.

At that time, Xu Jingzheng was worried that he couldn't find a topic that he could talk about with the Zeng brothers, so when he saw Zeng Hua enter the door, he stood up suddenly, "Sister Ahua." ”

After calling this "Ahua" sister, Xu Jing realized that something was wrong, the sister-in-law of the Zeng family was also there, and he should greet the eldest first.

Xu Jing, who had come back to his senses, bowed to Chen's chief, "Xu Jing has seen my sister-in-law." ”

Chen's face blushed immediately when she saw this formation, mainly because she didn't know how she should respond to this ceremony, and besides, the other party didn't look at her age, but the momentum was not small, a blue gown that didn't know what good material was shiny, and the purse jade pendant hanging on the lower body was good at a glance, oily, and the hair crown on the head couldn't say good, it was also like jade, and it was also shining, and this face, pink and pink, where it looked like a male baby, and some people believed that it was a female baby, oh, no, it was much more tender than the female baby in the village.

The first time Chen saw such an elegant and good-looking son of a big family, he was indeed a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to respond to the other party with a red face.

"Brother Xu, my sister-in-law has just entered Beijing, and she hasn't had time to learn the rules in the city, so you will scare her like this." Zeng Hua grabbed Chen's hand, trying to calm her flustered heart.

It's not that she didn't want to teach Chen a little rule, but Chen is a big-bellied woman, and she is still a big-bellied woman who is about to give birth to a full-term, in this case, it is natural that the child in her belly will come first.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to." Xu Jing hurriedly withdrew his hand and stood up straight, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are casual, treat me as a younger brother." ”

"Brother?" Zeng Guixiang muttered these two words, has such a cold-spoken younger brother?

No, this kid just sat here as if someone owed him eight hundred hangings, why did Ah Hua smile like a spring breeze as soon as he came, what the hell is going on?

But if these two people have any personal affairs, Zeng Guixiang also doesn't believe it, this kid is said to be only eleven years old, not to mention Ah Hua, only seven years old, the two little children are afraid that they don't even understand what private affairs are, most likely this kid doesn't like to see people, well, it should be like this.

Thinking about it this way, Zeng Guixiang was also much calmer, thinking that he would also go to the academy to study after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and most of the time he would have to study with this kid, and it was better to have him than to be alone, so Zeng Guixiang took the initiative to ask Xu Jing about the approximate location, scale, and restraint of the academy here.

Just as he was talking about the excitement, the knocker rang again.
