The young man outside the door was dressed in a beautiful and spirited manner, accompanied by an attendant with a gift in his hand.

Zhou Niangzi was overjoyed: "Third son, it's you who came." Come in, come in. While putting down the rice bran in his hand, he hurriedly walked towards the house, shouting: "Ah Yan, Ah Qing, the third prince is here, come out quickly!" ”

Xu Shaoye followed her into the door, and when she passed the yard, there were a few old hens, a few roosters, and a bunch of chicks behind her.

The hens clucked, the roosters clucked, and the chicks chirped, making the whole yard lively and lively.

After a while, the brothers and sisters of Zhou Yan and Zhou Qing came out.

Zhou Yan's injury was not yet healed, and Zhou Qing was still supporting him when he walked.

Zhou Niangzi had already cleaned up the tables and chairs in the courtyard, let the three young people sit down, and said with a smile in her mouth: "Third son, come and sit down and talk, sit down and talk." ”

Zhou Qing helped Zhou Yan sit down, and he went to help Zhou Niangzi make tea, and took some snacks and fruits.

Xu Shaoye said politely while sitting down: "Auntie, Sister Aqing, I'm just coming to see Ah Yan, just sit and talk." Don't be busy. ”

Zhou Niangzi said: "It is naturally not uncommon for our small family to eat dim sum, what hasn't the third son eaten?" Naturally, it is not rare, but food is the heart of our family. If there is no third son this time, my family Aqing will not be able to come back. Zhou Niangzi was sincerely grateful to Xu Shaoye, but Zhou Qing showed a look of shame.

Xu Shaoye asked Nian Youcai to send the gift to Mrs. Zhou to the house.

Zhou Niangzi hurriedly said politely: "The third prince has tormented us, it's good for people to come, and every time they come, they bring so many things." Our Zhou family owes the third son too much love! ”

Xu Shaoye said with a smile: "Auntie, I am good friends with Ah Yan, Ah Yan's mother Ah Yan's sister, just like my mother and my sister, so don't be too polite." ”

Every time Zhou Niangzi will be polite, every time Xu Shaoye will also tell her not to be polite, she has long been used to it, and everyone smiled and disagreed.

After Nian Youcai gave the gift, he left the courtyard and walked outside the door, not disturbing his son-in-law and Zhou Yan's brother and sister talking.

And Mrs. Zhou was also busy under the stove, thinking about cooking two poached eggs for Xu Shaoye or something.

In the courtyard, Zhou Qing poured tea for Xu Shaoye and Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan raised tea to Xu Shaoye and said, "Ah Ye, thank you really this time, if it weren't for you, my sister wouldn't have been able to come back." I guess I was killed outside a long time ago. Tea instead of wine, thank you for saving my sister's life. ”

Zhou Qing was very ashamed: "It's all my fault, I almost had an accident involving Brother Xu." Brother Ye got on that ship to find me. ”

Who knew that he would be ambushed when he got on the boat, but fortunately, Xu Shaoye was shrewd, and he was loyal to the lord when he was young, and the master and servant were not poisoned on the ship.

thought he could escape with Zhou Qing, but who knew that Zhou Qing was locked up with a leper patient and accidentally contracted leprosy. Xu Shaoye was also infected after being with her, but fortunately, Nian Youcai was not infected. Seeing that they could not hurt the lives of the three of them, the men on board abandoned them on a desert island in an attempt to leave them to fend for themselves. Who would have thought they would be able to escape from a desert island? Not only was he cured, but he also returned to Qidu smoothly.

Thanks to the bride.

Xu Shaoye drank Zhou Yanjing's tea and said, "I always feel that those people are coming for me, if it weren't for me, maybe Sister Zhou Qing wouldn't have suffered these accidents." ”

used Zhou Qing as bait to lure him in.

Xu Shaoye looked at Zhou Yan, and then looked at Zhou Qing and felt sorry: "So, Zhou Yan's injury won't be because of me, right?" ”

Zhou Yan thought about it carefully, but it wasn't either.

"What's the matter with your injuries?"

Seeing Xu Shaoye ask him, Zhou Yan was also confused.

Zhou Qing said: "My brother is a disaster without reason. My brother went to the beach to look for me, but he was also caught on a boat and pushed into the sea, but fortunately he met the Xu family's boat. The Xu family's boat did not find Brother Ye, but saved my brother. It's just that I didn't expect that my brother would be taken away by the people of Sikong Mansion when he finally returned to Qidu, so he beat my brother without saying anything, saying that my brother eloped with the eldest lady of the Shen family. ”

"Ah Qing-" Zhou Yan stopped Zhou Qing, he didn't even say these words to his mother, and specifically instructed his sister not to spread the word, this sister is really fast-talking.

Zhou Qing said disappreciatively: "Brother, what is there, Brother Ye is not an outsider." ”

"That is, Ah Yan, you actually treat me as an outsider?" Xu Shaoye cast a dissatisfied gaze.

Zhou Yan smiled awkwardly: "It's just that when Dr. Riqing went to Sikong Mansion to pick me up, I promised Shen Sikong not to spread the news that the eldest lady of the Shen family had escaped from marriage." A gentleman should keep his promise—"

Xu Shaoye snorted: "You gentleman, you are a pedantic gentleman." ”

Zhou Qingshen thought so: "Yes, yes, Brother Ye is right." That Shen Sikong almost killed you, and you still told him what to keep your promise. ”

Zhou Yan no longer defended.

Normally, when the three of them have a dispute, their sister is on Xu Shaoye's side, and they have a tacit understanding of the three views.

He can't do it, he is a scholar, and a scholar should have integrity and character, but Xu Shaoye and Zhou Qing don't understand it, they will only say that he is pedantic.

Zhou Qing shook his head and said to Xu Shaoye: "Brother Ye, you see, my brother will even keep his promise to the enemy, how can he elope with the eldest lady of the Shen family?" My brother doesn't even know who the eldest lady of the Shen family is, so what kind of private door is running! That Sikong Mansion is bullying our Zhou family, and they are ordinary people. ”

Zhou Qing was indignant: "Brother, you must be angry!" Study hard, get fame in the future, and shine on the lintel, and those high-ranking officials and nobles will not dare to bully you anymore. ”

Zhou Yan said: "It is indeed my dream to become an official in the examination for fame. But my original intention of being an official was not just to glorify my lintel and not be bullied. I want to be a good official who does practical things for the people! ”

Xu Shaoye offered tea to Zhou Yan, and the reason why he was willing to make friends with Zhou Yan was because he liked Zhou Yan's integrity.

While the three of them were talking, Mrs. Zhou came out with two bowls of poached eggs. Xu Shaoye didn't shirk either, and beckoned Nian Youcai outside the door to come in and take a bowl to eat.

Coming out of Zhou's house, Xu Shaoye suddenly asked Nian Youcai: "Which lady is Miss Changping?" ”

Nian Youcai shook his head: "My subordinates don't know." ”

Xu Shaoye knocked on Nian Youcai's head and sighed, "Why didn't you ask her at that time?" ”

Nian Youcai touched his head and couldn't help but feel aggrieved: "Childe didn't let his subordinates ask at that time." ”

"Then do you want me to remind you every day when you eat, sleep, and?"

Nian Youcai: "......" how can this be the same? Miss Changping is as beautiful as a flower, and the son actually compares her to.

Nian Youcai was upset for Miss Changping in his heart, and his head was knocked again, only to hear Xu Shaoye say: "Go and inquire if the eldest lady in Shen Sikong's family has escaped marriage?" ”

If it is the eldest lady of the Shen family who escapes the marriage, then the bride she met on the island may be the eldest lady of the Shen family.

Nian Youcai quickly brought the news to Xu Shaoye, the eldest lady of the Shen family did not run away from marriage, and married the second son of the Wang family a month ago. Today, the eldest lady of the Shen family and the second son of the Wang family returned to the door, and brought their cousin back to the Wang family to be a concubine for her husband.

Whose daughter is Shen Changping who met on the desert island?

Xu Shaoye still wanted to go to the Wang family to find out, but because he had just been appointed as a lieutenant, there were many affairs in the three armies, and Xu Wei wanted to teach him to deal with them, so this matter could only be put aside for the time being.

What's more, if Shen Changping is really Shen Sikong's daughter, she has already married into the Wang family, what can he do even if he sees her in person?

Of course, the grace of saving lives can be promised by body, but the beautiful woman is married.

……

……

The Wang family, the courtyard of the house.

Shen Changping gave tea to Mrs. Wang on the sickbed, who looked very weak, reluctantly drank the tea, and lay down again.

Xia Liyun's tea was not honored.

She held her tea with a helpless expression.

Wang Xiaojian said: "Since Miss Changping has allowed you to be my concubine, you only need to pay attention to Miss Changping's tea." ”

The tone that sounded cold made Xia Liyun's heart stagnate.

When Shen Changping heard this, he took the tea in Xia Liyun's hand and drank it in one gulp, and said, "Well, I've finished drinking the tea, you two should quit first, I will stay here to take care of my mother-in-law." ”

"Madame has a heart, I will stay with Madame to take care of my mother." Wang Xiaojian smiled, looking as warm as jade, not at all like talking to Xia Liyun.

This made Xia Liyun's heart angry.

A woman who has been running away from marriage for a month and has long had no innocent reputation to speak of, and she doesn't know why Wang Xiaojian is holding her so much, what is she trying to do?

Shen Changping said to Wang Xiaojian empatheticly: "Now that I'm back, although I'm in the main room, after all, Miss Liyun came to Wang's house in January before me, so I am inevitably suspected of destroying the relationship between you, I still leave tonight's time to my son and cousin, and the two of you should say clearly, so that the three of us will get along in the future." ”

What Shen Changping said was exactly what Xia Liyun couldn't ask for.

Wang Xiaojian also felt that from now on, the relationship between himself and Xia Liyun would be different from the previous month, and many words and things should be said and done. thanked Shen Changping and went out, Xia Liyun hurriedly followed.

As soon as the two left, Shen Changping sat down in front of the bed and said, "Actually, you are not seriously ill. ”

Mrs. Wang, who was lying on the bed, was shocked when she heard this, but she didn't open her eyes.

"Since there are so many people, only I can see that you are not sick, I think Mrs. Wang, you should still get up and make it clear between the two of us. You pretended to be sick to death, just to have an excuse to marry me, what are you trying to achieve? Is it trying to use my father's relationship to get a good future for your son? You just lie down and pretend that you can't get up, and you don't want to say it plainly, so how can I help you? ”

Madame Wang opened her eyes, sat up from the bed and said, "That's not my purpose. ”
