Chapter 50: It's Good to Be Young
Su Huiwan took the lotus beads back to the house first, the Su family had just moved to Kyoto City, Master Su was the new official, there are indeed not many acquaintances in this Kyoto City, Su Huiwan is also faceless, otherwise Chu Tong would not come up to flirt, and no one dares to provoke the eunuch woman.
When Master Su saw that his daughter was back, he said, "Kyoto City is not peaceful, you better not mess around." ”
"Dad, my daughter just wants to walk around!" Su Huiwan smiled, she is his father's youngest daughter, she has been pampered a lot since she was a child, no matter what she does, her father can tolerate her!
Master Su smiled and said, "The girl is older, she can't be crazy, and when Dad has a firm foothold, he will find a good marriage for you." ”
As soon as she mentioned marriage, Su Huiwan remembered what Xiao Zhi looked like when she helped her, if she was fated, she hoped to meet this son next time.
Here, Xi Hongdou followed Xiao Zhi home, Mrs. Xiao did have a serious face, Xi Hongdou ran away and the monk couldn't run to the temple, she waited for Xi Hongdou to come back and give her a perfect explanation!
"Mother, if you don't want to learn the rules, you won't learn it, the rules are enough, it's so fancy, I'm tired and panicked when I look at it!" Xiao Zhi directly opened his mouth to protect it.
Mrs. Xiao's face was even more ugly, this is not what happened, Xiao Zhi began to protect it?!
"In the future, I will be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, I can't be rude, if you take the test and become an official, she will also be an edict in the future, how can she do what she wants?" Mrs. Xiao said, "I'm also preparing first!" ”
Xi Hongdou looked at Xiao Zhi, and Xiao Zhi said, "Is it so troublesome to be an edict?" Then I don't want to study, if I don't take the merit test, I won't be an official, and the red bean can save some effort! ”
When Mrs. Xiao heard this, her face changed, and she immediately said, "What are you talking about?" Is it possible to feed your father and mother for a lifetime? "Don't you need to be motivated?
Xi Hongdou said at this time: "I will make money, and I can't starve to death in the future......"
Xiao Zhi laughed directly: "Look, my daughter-in-law will raise me in the future, and I will also try how fragrant this soft rice is, why do so many men like to eat it?!" ”
Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she almost fainted, is this still a human thing?!
Master Xiao said at this time: "He really did ......"
Xi Hongdou hurriedly pulled Xiao Zhi back to the small courtyard first, lest Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but slap Xiao Zhi first.
Master Xiao watched his son leave, and said to his wife: "Madam, they all said don't let you take care of it, you have to listen, why do you think your son wants to go to school?" Isn't it all because of red beans? "Now Mrs. Xiao wants to take Xi Hongdou, and in the end, if Xiao Zhishu doesn't read his fame and doesn't take the test, it's not worth it!
"Iniquity!" Mrs. Xiao was helpless, looking at the entire Kyoto City, which lady should be so aggrieved as her?!
In the evening, Mrs. Xiao went to talk to Mrs. Tai, since the Xiao family was released from prison, Mrs. Tai was still seriously ill, and these days can be regarded as recovering.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was so sad and bleak, Mrs. Tai asked, "Why is this face again?" What's the matter? ”
Mrs. Xiao told Mrs. Tai about Xi Hongdou, and finally said, "Isn't this also for their good!" ”
Mrs. Tai snorted, what did she think about her daughter-in-law? From the day I got married, I had to fight for everything, and I had to have the final say. She, who is a mother-in-law, is also a daughter-in-law who survived, and she has turned a blind eye for so many years, and she doesn't say anything easily, but Mrs. Xiao doesn't dare to stare at her. Now it's okay, there are juniors in the family, although Xi Hongdou has not passed the door and is just borrowing now, but Mrs. Xiao has already taken out the panache of being a mother-in-law, and she has to make Xi Hongdou obedient to be happy!
"You don't have to worry so much about red beans, other people's red beans have worked hard for our family, if you treat others harshly, what do others think of our Xiao family? Don't let people think that our Xiao family is a favor and will take revenge and repay virtue with resentment? ! After Mrs. Tai said this, Mrs. Xiao said: "I didn't treat him harshly, I just learned the rules!" ”
Mrs. Tai pouted: "Okay, say that you are still energetic, do you have any rules for red beans, and you will also be our daughter-in-law in the future, Xiao Zhi will protect it, don't delay my grandson's fame test in the end, if you can't let the Xiao family shine on the lintel, I can't finish with you!" She felt that her daughter-in-law was cautious, and her eyes were full of Xiao Zhi. She is also a mother-in-law, if she is too serious with her daughter-in-law, and she will pick eggs and bones if she has nothing to do, then she has not had a good day, and she is asking for trouble. Now I have to let Mrs. Xiao understand, so as not to make everyone unhappy in the future!
Mrs. Xiao's heart was completely cold, and her mother-in-law even connived at Xi Hongdou, and she had no tricks. Xi Hongdou is the benefactor of the Xiao family, she really can't move!
Xi Hongdou found a piece of land in the yard, and when he had nothing to do, he weeded and turned over the soil by himself. Some of the cumin seeds were sold in her hometown, and the rest was sent to her, thinking that the humid climate of Yunzhou City and the dry feeling of Kyoto City were more suitable for planting.
"It's expensive, too." Xi Hongdou said that the Hu merchants in Yunzhou City can also be regarded as a conscience, and when they arrived in Kyoto City, the price of this thing doubled, which also gave her motivation.
I can't sleep at night, Xi Hongdou thinks about a lot of things while lying in bed. Now he borrowed the Xiao family's shop, and Chang Liang's words sounded so good, and he still relied on Xiao Zhi in the end. The Xiao family's face is also big, and no one comes to trouble relying on the Xiao family's face, but it is almost useless, which also makes her feel not so comfortable.
Outside the door, Xiao Zhi knocked on the door and asked, "Red Bean, are you sleeping?" The voice is also deliberately low, for fear of noisy others.
Xi Hongdou sat up, it's not early, Xiao Zhi hasn't slept yet, can he get up early tomorrow?
"I didn't sleep, wait for me." After Xi Hongdou finished speaking, he stepped on his shoes and went to open the door first.
As soon as the door opened, a cool breeze blew in, making Xi Hongdou shiver, and Xiao Zhi quickly closed the door when he saw this.
"You don't sleep in the middle of the night, don't you want to get up early tomorrow?" Xi Hongdou asked.
Xiao Zhi smiled and said, "You get dressed first!" ”
"What?" Xi Hongdou asked.
Xiao Zhi hurriedly went to the shelf to get the clothes and said, "Just wear them quickly." ”
Xi Hongdou hurriedly put on his jacket, Xiao Zhi was afraid that it would not be enough, so he put on a cloak again, and then pulled Xi Hongdou out.
It was snowing in the yard, and Xi Hongdou followed out, only to see that there were buckets in the yard, and there were fireworks and the like in them.
Xiao Zhi took a handful and put it in Xi Hongdou's hand, pinched the incense stick and lit it, and then played with Xi Hongdou.
Xi Hongdou laughed, the two chatted while playing, she was far away, but it was not so difficult.
The night was quiet, Xi Hongdou and Xiao Zhi were playing here, and the crackling sound of fireworks was also obvious in the night. Mrs. Xiao and Master Xiao in the courtyard next to them could also hear clearly.
"It's good to be young!" Master Xiao sighed in his heart.
Mrs. Xiao was speechless, turned over and said, "When you were young, you were like a piece of wood, so you might as well be coaxed by your son!" ”
Master Xiao smiled bitterly and hurriedly said, "Then I'll coax you and coax you to sleep!" ”
…………
The days in Kyoto City are quite comfortable, since Xiao Zhi and Mrs. Xiao finished speaking, Mama Su has not come to teach the rules again, although Mrs. Xiao feels that it is inappropriate, but it is still just like that.
Mrs. Xiao has a circle of noblewomen, men have worked hard enough outside, and women have to create an atmosphere in the back.
"Mrs. Xiao looks good, I heard that your Xiao family was convicted before, and I have been worried about it for several days!" It was the wife of the Chu family, the captain of the city defense, who spoke to the wife of the Chu family, and the Chu family has always looked at the Xiao family and is not so pleasing to the eye, Mrs. Chu and Mrs. Xiao can get along on weekdays. The Xiao family almost didn't cut off their heads before, even if they were innocent later, Master Xiao was reinstated, but Mrs. Xiao went to the edict prison by a woman, and it was shameless to say it.
Mrs. Xiao's eyebrows jumped, and then she said: "I have to worry about it, but when I went out this morning, a crow flew in front of my eyes, quacking twice, and I was also a little upset, to say that the complexion is good, it is really not good!" ”
Mrs. Chu pursed her lips, Mrs. Xiao is insinuating that she is a crow's mouth!
It is not easy for women in the deep house to go out and show their heads, but now a large group of people are together, and all the pastimes rely on the lady's tea party, and they all talk about a little gossip.
"I heard that the Xiao family can be exonerated because Mrs. Xiao has a good prospective daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Chu said: "I don't know where this prospective daughter-in-law is?" Why haven't I heard Mrs. Xiao mention a word before?! ”
"I also made a marriage recently, and I haven't had a chance to talk to you." Mrs. Xiao said, looking at Mrs. Chu's disgusted face, anyway, just sit like this for a while, and forget it.
Mrs. Chu said with a smile: "The son of the Xiao family is also just the right age, and he is another talent, and he should have been married a long time ago, but it's a pity, the first two of them couldn't stand!" ”
Mrs. Xiao really wants to smoke Mrs. Chu, so she has to open which pot to mention! The matter of Xiao Zhike's wife is also spread evil in Kyoto City, and it has often been ridiculed by people before, and now it is here again!
"The new pro-Fuda has nothing to do." Mrs. Xiao said directly.
"Isn't it Fuda, I saved the Xiao family as soon as I came, and my life is hard enough!" Mrs. Chu smiled after speaking.
Mrs. Xiao really couldn't bear it anymore, so she immediately stood up and said, "I'm tired today, everyone talk slowly, I'll leave first!" If she sat down again, she was afraid that she was going to beat Mrs. Chu's head into a chicken nest.
Mrs. Chu saw that Mrs. Xiao was gone, so she turned around and said, "Her son has been causing trouble all day long, and he has killed two girls, and he can't talk about it!" "She just wants to say that Mrs. Xiao has to fight for a bright face everywhere, and every time she talks about her son, if she is a person with both talent and morality, it doesn't matter, but she is also a troublemaker, what is there to say? !
