272 Clever ghosts
Lin Youcai's words are heart-wrenching.
Wang Shanchang covered his chest and asked angrily: "Are you teaching me to be a man?" ”
Lin Youcai raised his eyebrows slightly, very "humble".
"Don't dare."
Then, Wang Shanchang was angry and left.
Throwing away his sleeves, he also brought the door of the Lin family with him, and there was a loud "bang" smash, and the door frame trembled, so it almost didn't collapse.
"Tsk!" Liu's eyes were full of surprise, "It turns out that all scholars are like this?" ”
Lin Youcai glanced at her angrily, "Otherwise, what do you think?" ”
Somehow, Lin Meiyi was stunned to see a sour taste in her father's eyes.
Tsk, she doesn't want to smell the sour smell of love.
"Grandma, I'll help you go back and rest." Lin Meiyi turned to her grandmother, and the grandparents and grandchildren left the sour hall together.
Everyone was gone, and Lin Youcai had to go up to check the gate by himself.
"Alas, what kind of sin did Lao Tzu create, I didn't have time to sit for a while when I came to the city, so I had to get busy, I really owe your mother a few ...... in my last life."
He was muttering alone, and no one could hear what he was saying.
Liu stood in the hall, secretly thinking about the back that Mrs. Xu chased out just now, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
I don't know if this person has caught it.
......
When night fell, Mrs. Xu sat alone in the dining room, looking at the table full of dishes, and raised her eyes from time to time to look out of the door.
Finally, Erya rushed in at a trot, and Mrs. Xu hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Are the father and son here? ”
Erya looked at the master's expectant gaze, couldn't bear to meet her lost appearance, lowered her head, and shook her head gently,
"No, my brother locked himself in the house and ignored me, and Mr. said he had no appetite and let the two of us eat by ourselves."
The expected answer, Mrs. Xu sighed, beckoned Erya, and asked her to serve the table, "Then let's eat by ourselves." ”
"Come, come on." Mrs. Xu picked up the braised chicken thighs on the plate, and put them in the small porcelain plate at hand for the second girl, while saying with a wry smile: "Your senior brother is not here today, you girl is blessed, both chicken drumsticks are yours." ”
"Thank you, Master!" Erya grinned, her innocent smile made people's hearts warm, Mrs. Xu touched her hair lovingly, and felt that the depression in her heart was much better.
"Master, you eat too." Erya picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed over the fried dried bamboo shoots that Master loved to eat, hoping that Master would be happy when he ate something delicious.
"Hmm." Mrs. Xu nodded, and the smile on her face was finally not so bitter.
The master and apprentice moved elegantly, and after eating dinner without saying a word, Erya took the initiative to get up and clean up the dishes and chopsticks as usual, but Mrs. Xu asked her to put her things down and called the servants to let them clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
Er Ya sat in front of the master, knowing that the master had something to ask herself, and she was a little nervous.
Sure enough, as soon as the Master opened his mouth, he asked about her family.
When Ah Da came to the academy to call people, Er Ya knew about it, but before she could be happy that her father and grandmother had come to the city, she heard Ah Da say that her senior brother was arrested at her home today.
This will be afraid that the master will misunderstand his family, so he hurriedly waved his hand and explained:
"Master, my father and sister are very good people, the matter of my brother wanting to practice martial arts has nothing to do with them, last time my brother wanted to worship my eldest sister as a teacher, my eldest sister persuaded him to come back and study hard, but I didn't promise him."
"Don't panic, that's not what you mean to be a teacher." Seeing that she had misunderstood, Mrs. Xu hurriedly explained the reason.
She just thought their family was interesting and wanted to know more.
"Your father, does he know martial arts?" Mrs. Xu asked curiously.
Erya nodded, and shook her head again, "My father can hunt and has great strength, is this considered martial arts?" ”
Mrs. Xu thought about it, she should be able to, her general strength is great, and she is definitely not like Lin Youcai.
When he grabbed her husband's wrist, he shot so fast that ordinary people couldn't react at all.
"That'...... Does your eldest sister also know martial arts? Mrs. Xu asked again.
There is nothing to hide about this matter, Er Ya nodded and said with a smile: "I don't know if the eldest sister knows martial arts, but the eldest sister is really powerful." ”
"Oh? How is it amazing? Mrs. Xu was tentative.
Erya sighed, thought about it very seriously, and responded excitedly: "The eldest sister can make a lot of beautiful clothes, and she can also weave cloth, and the cloth woven by the eldest sister is beautiful." ”
"That's it?" Mrs. Xu narrowed her eyes and carefully studied the expression on Erya's face.
The little girl nodded seriously, and there didn't seem to be a trace of anything unusual, but who is Mrs. Xu?
Someone who can teach a woman like today's concubine can't see the little girl's careful cover-up?
For a while, Mrs. Xu didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
Erya is a disciple she taught, and she already knows such thoughts at a young age, she should be happy.
It's just that it's not a good thing for the apprentice to use the skills taught by the master to the master and deceive the master.
Mrs. Xu didn't know what Erya was hiding, but she wouldn't continue to ask, just about it.
"Alright, stand down and write the words I taught you this morning twenty more times." Mrs. Xu waved her hand, her face was light, and she couldn't see her joy or anger.
Erya knew that the master was angry, but she was very happy.
Although she was punished, she didn't expose more about the eldest sister's affairs, and the master punished her precisely because he saw through her careful thinking.
"The disciple receives the punishment." The second girl squatted down and saluted, and withdrew.
walked out of the door in a regular manner, and as soon as she staggered Mrs. Xu's gaze, it turned into a bouncing.
Listening to the cheerful footsteps coming from the bottom of the corridor, Mrs. Xu shook her head helplessly, but there was uncontrollable pampering in her eyes.
"This clever ......"
After scolding in a low voice, Mrs. Xu turned her head to look at the small courtyard on the left, and the smile on her face was no longer there.
The nurse who had been serving Mrs. Xu since she was a child walked in with a food box, and when she saw Mrs. Xu's appearance, she shook her head distressedly.
"Miss, the meals prepared for the young master are all packed in the food box." The nurse reported.
Mrs. Xu retracted her gaze and turned her head to look at the nurse, "Did the master send it over there?" ”
The nurse nodded, "I've already asked someone to send it over." ”
"That's good, give it to me."
Mrs. Xu lifted the food box, stopped the nurse from following, and came to the door of her son's room alone.
"Lan'er, open the door." Mrs. Xu shouted.
There was no movement in the room, Mrs. Xu shook her head helplessly, and spoke again, "Haven't you always wanted to know why your father resigned?" ”
This time, there was movement in the house, as if it was hesitating, and after a while, a sentence sounded in the room: "Come in, the door is unlocked." ”
This is a good start, Mrs. Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the door, and walked in with a food box.
The room was pitch black, with only the faint light of the lantern under the porch letting in, and barely able to see a person sitting on the couch.
"Why don't you light the lights?" Mrs. Xu walked in carefully, fumbled to put the food box on the table, found the candlestick, picked up the fire fold, and lit the candlestick.
