Song got up and walked to Wen and Xie Mulin, gently hugged their mother and daughter, touched Xie Mulin's head again, and said softly: "Good boy, don't cry." Grandmothers know your grievances and won't blame you. You don't have to take the words of your third uncle and grandmother to heart. She's sick and confused, so she can talk nonsense. You child has a big heart, don't worry about her. ”

Xie Mulin lowered his head and wiped the few tears that he had managed to squeeze out, but his eyes were rubbed redder. She timidly raised her eyes to look at the Song family: "Grandmother, are you telling the truth?" ”

Song smiled softly and touched her head again. Originally, the lonely and cold temperament on her body softened all of a soften, and became kind and kind.

Xie Mulin guessed that his play should be quite successful, so he made a child's coaxing appearance, pursed his lips and smiled embarrassedly, wiped away his tears, and went to persuade his mother Wen.

Song Shi looked at Wen Shi and said in a very soft tone: "Okay, a handful of old people, they still love to cry like when they were children." This is still in front of the child, aren't you afraid that the real sister will see the joke? ”

Wen Shi was embarrassed to say a few words.

It's just that when she wiped her tears and was pulled down by the Song family, the sadness on her face was still difficult to eliminate: "The old lady said something like that, in case it really spreads, so that outsiders misunderstand the character of several children...... So what to do? She is so sick now, and we can't contradict her, so we can only talk to her......"

Song said lightly: "Although it's not good to contradict her, there's no need to follow her tone to speak, just act as if you haven't heard anything." The third brother and sister are so sick now, and they don't know when they will recover. ”

After saying that, the Song family turned to Tu Shi and said: "The third brother and sister have been away from their hometown for so many years, and they can only wronged her for the future of Yuhe, so they can only wronged her for a long time. Now that Yuhe's future has been decided, the three brothers and sisters also have the heart to return to their hometowns to care for the elderly, and we, as sisters-in-law, should also take care of her more, so that she can rest assured that she can live in the clan for a long time. ”

Tu smiled and said, "The second brother and sister are still so kind. Okay, since you don't care about it, I'm the sister-in-law, of course I won't be a chicken belly. ”

Xie Mulin watched in amazement. Her talented acting skills and ability to reverse black and white are really pediatric, at most they can be regarded as adding fuel and vinegar. Look at what Song said these words, it simply distorted Mrs. Xie's original meaning, but who can say that she is not right? Anyone who listens to it will only think that the Song family is generally knowledgeable, the Xie family is harmonious, and the concubines are very friendly.

Don't look at the simple family background of the Song family, and the life after marriage is also very clean, I feel like a talented girl who has been immersed in the sea of books and ink for a lifetime, Sven is elegant and generous. Who would have thought that she would have such a level of means when she fought with others?

Du ordered the girls to move an extra stool, beckoned Xie Mulin to sit down, and asked about the details of life in the old mansion.

Xie Mulin still honestly explained in detail, what was done every day, what was renovated, how was it renovated, and how much did it cost? How is Mrs. Xie's life arranged? How are people's lives arranged? What do you have to do with the people in the neighborhood? It's all clear. Don't look at the poor condition of this old house, after two or three days, the living conditions have actually been greatly improved, at least everyone has no worries about food and clothing, complete housing, safety is also quite guaranteed, and they get along well with their neighbors.

Du Shi's serious face showed a happy smile, and he hugged Xie Mulin and said to the two elders: "Look at the two of you, how capable this kid is!" I didn't know as much as she did when she was her age! As for our family Yinglian, she was even more compared to this child! It stands to reason that the third aunt and Sister Su Min don't know much about these chores, where did this child learn it? ”

Xie Mulin was a little confused, and hurriedly said modestly that he didn't know a lot, and what he did was just a small thing.

Du Shi smiled and said: "Fool, it's another girl, at your age, no matter how smart you are, you just tell your subordinates what to do, mend walls, repair doors and windows, pave tiles, and so on, but how many can say what materials should be used and how to repair them, just like you?" Your mother definitely doesn't understand this, your father knows, but he has been away from home for a long time, and it is impossible for him to teach his daughter these things. You have to learn, either by asking people or by learning from books. That's why I say you're smart, better than many girls! ”

Xie Mulin suddenly said, it turns out that this is what Du Shi meant? When she ordered people to work, she did explain it in detail, but this is not because the subordinates in the family are not serious craftsmen and have no professional skills in this area. In order to improve their work efficiency, she must explain it clearly. If she doesn't understand, forget it, since she knows a little, there is no reason to hide it without supervision. After all, she herself has to live in the old house, so if she can live comfortably, why bother with herself?

If there had been a formally knowledgeable craftsman here at that time, she would have only ordered "mend the wall" or "mend the tile" or something like that.

But I don't know how to explain this, Xie Mulin can only continue to be modest: "I also saw others act like this, so I just learned from it, in fact, there are still many mistakes, omissions and deficiencies." Thanks to Uncle Ma and Aunt Ma and others, they are also helping me with their hearts, otherwise where would this old mansion be repaired to the extent it is today? I'm just talking about it, but I don't dare to be a big uncle. ”

Du Shi smiled and hugged her again: "Good boy, in front of your own parents, why be so humble? It's a shame! ”

Wen was a little stunned on the side, she actually didn't expect that her daughter had done so many things in the past two or three days. No wonder the living room was in tatters before she left, but now it is clean and well-furnished, ready for entertaining. It's all a credit to my daughter! Since something happened at home, my daughter has become more and more sensible and capable day by day.

Wen's eyes were red, and he hurriedly suppressed his tears again, thanked Du Shi for his praise, and sighed: "She loves to read books on weekdays, and she doesn't like poetry and songs, but likes to collect those miscellaneous books, industrial, medical, agricultural and plant, everything." I don't think she's like a girl from a family of eunuchs like us, and I wonder when she developed a strange temper. But she can learn real skills from miscellaneous books and use them at home, but it is not in vain that she reads so hard. ”

Song smiled and nodded: "It can be seen that knowledge comes from books, whether it is poetry and books, or ordinary life, reading more books is always beneficial." Tu smiled beside him.

Du Shi smiled and said to Xie Mulin: "Does Sister Zhen also like to read medical books?" In fact, you don't need to learn to diagnose the pulse and prescribe prescriptions, you only need to understand some pharmacology and know some health knowledge, and you can use it for a lifetime. There are many such books in my aunt's place, so you can just come and read them when you have free time. Your sister Yinglian also likes to read these books, and she likes to make some rouge flower water for her own use in her spare time. You girls just play together, it's much better than going out and being naughty. Your second uncle's Yingzhi also likes to play with Yinglian. ”

Xie Zeshan, the eldest lady of the sect, has two sons, the eldest son Xie Hui has four sons and one daughter, and the daughter is Xie Yinglian, who is fifteen years old this year; The second son, Xie Mao, has a daughter and two sons, and the eldest daughter Xie Yingzhi is ten years old this year. These two girls were introduced by the Wen family to the Xie Mulin sisters early, and Xie Mulin had a general understanding of their temperament and preferences, and even prepared a gift for each, but it was just before he could give it away.

Xie Mulin was a little curious about these two cousins, and was about to take the opportunity to ask Du Shi a few more words, when he heard a report from Ma Lu Yao's family: "The old lady is awake." ”
