After eating a casual meal, Gu Xian took Qingshu back. This time it went well, and there was no trouble.

When the two arrived at the dock, they saw Lin Chengzhi. Qing Shu asked strangely: "Third uncle, why did you have to go to the county seat just after the family was separated?" ”

Although the location of mulberry land and fertile land and acres of land are clearly written in the family separation letter, Webster is too difficult. Qingshu thinks it's better to break these things up sooner.

At this time, there was no one else on the dock, and Lin Chengzhi did not hide it from Qingshu: "I want to go to the county seat to see if there is a suitable shop, and if there is, I will buy it." If not, I'll deposit the money in the bank. ”

It's too unsafe to put so much money at home, so it's better to use it up early or save it safely.

Qing Shu was a little surprised, and said, "Third uncle, do you want to open a shop in the county seat?" ”

Lin Chengzhi nodded and said, "Yes, you can't be an errand boy for the rest of your life." I didn't want to make a lot of money, as long as I could feed my family. ”

Qingshu was happy for Lin Chengzhi's change: "Third uncle, you will definitely be able to do it." ”

Gu Xian said: "Third brother, if you need help, just ask." ”

Lin Chengzhi politely declined: "No need sister-in-law, I can handle these things myself." ”

Counting on Gu Xian's help, it is better to count on Qingshu.

While he was saying this, a ship came.

When he arrived at the county seat, Lin Chengzhi sent the mother and daughter into the carriage and left.

Gu Xian said with some sighs: "Qingshu, your third uncle has changed a lot, I just hope this change is good." ”

Qingshu smiled and said: "Mother, if you look at the third aunt and Rudie, they know whether the third uncle's change is good or bad." ”

Thinking of the ruddy-faced Zhang family and the increasingly lively Rudie sister and brother, Gu Xian nodded: "It's really a good thing to hear you say this, but your father will definitely be sad after knowing this." ”

Qingshu felt a little sarcastic: "What's so sad?" Could it be that the third uncle and three aunts must be cows and fathers in the Lin family. ”

Seeing Qingshu's face change, Gu Xian hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant. Your father values love and righteousness, and has always hoped that his brother will prosper the Lin family with one heart. Now that the Lin family is separated, he will definitely be sad. ”

Lin Chengyu attaches great importance to love and righteousness? This is the biggest joke Qingshu has heard so far. However, she also knew that in Gu Xian's heart, Lin Chengyu was the embodiment of perfection, and she couldn't listen to anything she said.

Qingshu chuckled: "Mother, I think my father will be very happy to know that my grandfather has added a little brother to him." ”

What she said was the opposite. Lin Chengyu knew this, and he would definitely feel that his face was gloomy.

Thinking that Old Lady Lin said that he would take the mother and son back to the Lin family, Gu Xian frowned and said, "Fortunately, we will leave here immediately, no matter how much trouble they make, it won't affect us." ”

This is a pleasant thing to hear.

In the afternoon, Qingshu came back from Wisteria Garden, and Gu Xian said to her: "Your third uncle came to you just now, I originally wanted someone to call you back, but he stopped me. Qingshu, this is something that your third uncle bought for you. ”

Qing Shu smiled and took a small box handed over by Gu Xian, and asked with a smile, "Did you send anything to An An?" ”

Gu Xian nodded and said, "Yes, I gave An An a rattle and a pair of bells." ”

Although the things are not worth a few dollars, Gu Xian is still very happy, which shows that Lin Chengzhi takes his daughter to heart.

Qingshu opened the box and saw two wooden hairpins carved with plum blossoms on it. Under the wooden hairpin, there is a pile of broken silver.

Seeing the silver Qingshu, he smiled. She doesn't lack this money, but if Lin Chengzhi doesn't pay back the money because of this, then she won't help him anymore.

Putting the silver back in the box, Qingshu and Jiao Xing said, "Go and ask the big housekeeper to come over." ”

Qingshu asked the big housekeeper to help inquire about whether there was anyone in the county who wanted to sell the shop. The big housekeeper is not only familiar with the county, but he also has dealings with people in black and white, so he asks him to help get twice the result with half the effort.

When the chief butler heard that the budget was only three hundred taels of silver, he had a number in his heart.

Qingshu said with a smile: "If you have news, you can tell my third uncle directly, and you don't have to come back to me." ”

After a few days, Gu Xian and Qingshu said: "Today, your Aunt Lan sent someone to send a post, and she will bring Xiangxiang over tomorrow." ”

Qingshu hadn't seen Yue Xiangxiang for a long time, and she missed her very much: "Then my husband and I will take a day off." ”

On the second day, Qingshu was a little surprised when he saw Yue Xiangxiang: "Sister Xiangxiang, why have you lost so much weight?" ”

Yue Xiangxiang poured bitter water: "You don't know how unpalatable the Xu family's food is." The dish is either salty or light, or it is boiled directly, and it has no taste at all. ”

Qing Shu deeply sympathized with Yue Xiangxiang.

Wei Lan scolded with a smile: "Qingshu, don't listen to her nonsense." The Xu family's food tasted okay, but it wasn't as good as Aunt Xiang's. ”

Xiangxiang stopped drying: "Mother, I didn't talk nonsense, that meal is as unpalatable as pig food." If you don't believe me, next time I will bring back the Xu family's food for you to eat. By the way, the food was not only unpalatable, but also unclean. The last time I ate green vegetables, Miss Xu Er, I ate a worm, and I once ate several grasses. ”

Qingshu smiled and said: "If you want to think that the dishes they fry are not delicious, just let the family send the food over." ”

Xiang Xiang said whirringly: "I want to too, but my mother is not allowed!" ”

Because of this, she hadn't spoken to Weilan for several days.

Wei Lan explained: "The girls of the Xu family are all eating there, what do I want to send food to Mr. Xu?" Moreover, if she really did this, the girl of the Xu family might even reject her. ”

It is very important to integrate into the circle, and it is also painstaking for Yue Xiangxiang Weilan.

Qingshu sighed a little, they are also mothers, why is there such a big gap!

Gu Xian smiled and said, "As long as Mr. Xu teaches well, you can overcome these difficulties." ”

Speaking of this, Xiangxiang cried out again: "I don't know who said that Mr. Xu would teach children." Every day, she read from the book and asked us to memorize it, and she didn't explain it. I asked her what the book meant, and she said that reading it a hundred times would see the meaning of it. I want to sleep every time I go to class. ”

She especially misses the days of studying with Fu Ran. Fu Ran will not only explain the meaning of the book to them in detail, but also give many examples to deepen their understanding. It's easy to learn this way, unlike the pain of learning now.

Wei Lan scolded: "You kid, don't be in the midst of blessings and don't know blessings. Do you know how hard it took me and your father to get you into Xu's private school. ”

She also wanted Yue Xiangxiang to learn from Fu Ran, but Fu Ran didn't want to teach what to do.

Xiangxiang said with a bitter face: "Mother, I can bear the unpalatable food, but I really can't listen to what Mr. Xu taught." Mother, you can change me again! ”

Wei Lan said angrily: "You don't want to think about it, but how can this good gentleman be so easy to find?" ”

Seeing that nothing had changed, Xiangxiang took Qingshu's hand and said, "Qingshu, is Mr. here today?" ”

Qingshu shook his head: "Mr. went shopping today." ”

Fu Ran likes to study antique calligraphy and painting, and whenever she has time, she will go to bookstores or antique shops to have a look. If you meet someone you like, you will buy it back.

Hearing that Fu Ran had gone out, Xiangxiang happily took Qingshu's hand and said, "Qingshu, let's go to the garden for a walk." ”

If the gentleman is not there, there is no need to worry about going to the garden to meet him. Although Fu Ran no longer taught her, Xiangxiang's fear of her did not diminish at all.
