Chapter Eighty-Three: Zhou, Rising Waves, Danxing
Su Yuanjia saw that although the two of them were not chatting enthusiastically, they could always sit together, so he used the excuse to go to the toilet and vacate the space for the two of them.
Xiao Zhi frowned, no matter how stupid he was, he could see why he was drinking tea, so he got up and said, "I don't bother if I have something at home." "And then it's time to go.
Su Huiwan saw that people were leaving, so she hurriedly chased after her, took out a sachet and sent it to Xiao Zhi, and said, "Before the son saved me, I specially made this sachet to express my gratitude, and I hope you don't dislike it." ”
Xiao Zhi saw that he couldn't ask for the sachet anymore, so he said, "No need, the red bean made me a sachet, so I won't let Miss Su break the bank." Then he squeezed out a reluctant smile and walked away.
It had only rained on the street, and there was still some stagnant water, Xiao Zhi wanted to hurry home, but it rained again on the road, and the rain was coming urgently, so he had no choice but to hide from the rain at the door of a chess and card hall.
"Young Master Xiao?" Someone suddenly shouted behind him, and as soon as Xiao Zhi turned around, he saw a familiar face, Xu Min.
Xu Min was ordered to go out of the palace to do errands, and he had just come in to hide from the rain, but he didn't expect to meet Xiao Zhi so coincidentally.
"Father-in-law Xu." Xiao Zhi said politely, and his father also said that the father-in-law in the palace can't afford to provoke him, so it's best not to offend.
Xu Min lowered his head and said, "What a coincidence, is Xiao Gongzi going home?" ”
"Exactly." Xiao Zhi said: "I don't know when the rain will stop, if it doesn't stop, I will have to run back against the rain, but this side is far away from the palace gate, what should Grandpa Xu do?" ”
Xu Min smiled bitterly: "It can only be the same, the time to return to life waits for no one, let alone rain, I have to rush back when there are knives in the sky." "There's still some time, but we can wait for the rain to lighten up.
The two were talking about this, and Su Huiwan chased after her outside, holding an umbrella in her hand, and said, "But I can catch up with Childe, I came to send an umbrella to Childe, Childe don't shirk." ”
"No, I'll just hide for a while." Xiao Zhi didn't go to pick up the umbrella, but Su Huiwan didn't give up either, and said: "If you don't like to catch a cold in summer, don't get caught in the rain." After saying that, he put the umbrella aside, and then left elegantly, dignifiedly, and contrivedly.
Xu Min looked at this scene, his face was a little unsightly, and he said, "I haven't seen the red bean girl for a long time, I don't know how she is doing recently?" ”
As soon as Xi Hongdou was mentioned, Xiao Zhi came to the spirit: "She is very good, she also runs a shop, and she is full of vitality." ”
Xu Min said: "...... is that woman just now?" ”
"The daughter of the Su family, the Su family is really an upstart in Beijing now." Xiao Zhi said.
Xu Min knows the Su family, and recently Master Su has been promoted again, and it is indeed quite strong, but ......
"The Su family is indeed a good family." Xu Min said: "But Xiao Gongzi still has to cherish the red bean girl." After saying that, he got up, the rain outside was light, and it was time for him to go.
Xiao Zhi saw that Xu Min was gone, so he didn't stay long, and left, but the umbrella given by Su Huiwan still didn't take it.
When she returned home, Mrs. Xiao was preparing to worship her ancestors, and when she saw that Xiao Zhi was back, she said, "I won't go to the academy tomorrow, but worship my ancestors at home." ”
"Oh." Xiao Zhi responded.
Mrs. Xiao was well-informed, so she said, "I heard that you and the son and young lady of the Su family went to tea?" ”
Xiao Zhi wondered if Mrs. Xiao's news was too fast? Just asked, "How does my mother know?" ”
"Mrs. Su also came to the house for tea this afternoon." Mrs. Xiao said.
Saying this, how could Xiao Zhi not know that Su Yuanjia was deliberate, so he said, "I won't drink it in the future." ”
Mrs. Xiao was speechless: "What kind of temper are you?" I see that Su Huiwan is really infatuated with you, but you are not impressed at all? ”
"What's so good about it? In the future, stay away, lest the red bean listen to it and think too much. Xiao Zhi didn't want Xi Hongdou to misunderstand, so it was good to keep his distance.
Mrs. Xiao said: "Mrs. Su is here to pass the tone, Su Huiwan doesn't mind being a flat wife, and I heard that you are a wife, people don't care, I am not afraid of being rejected by you!" "After all, the Su family is a high-ranking family, and now it is still an upstart, it would be good if they could form a family, and Su Huiwan didn't mind the two daughters and one husband, what reason did she have to refuse?
"She doesn't mind me, and Hongdou definitely doesn't mind, so you don't have to think about it!" Xiao Zhi said: "Mother don't accept anything from the Su family in the future, if there is trouble, I don't care." He also guessed Mrs. Xiao's thoughts, but he and Xi Hongdou were very good, why did he have to insert a person?
Mrs. Xiao felt that Xiao Zhi was small, so she said: "It's not that you want to be wronged by the red bean, the red bean is also the main room, the two are on an equal footing, and the red bean is not inferior to others." ”
"It's nice to say, a maiden like the Su family, don't you believe it if you don't wronged the red bean girl? And I don't want anyone to be on an equal footing with Hongdou, I don't want a wife, and I don't want to take a concubine, I still say that, if I get into trouble, don't expect me to clean up the mess! "Now let's talk about the ugly things first, so as not to toss his mother around.
Mrs. Xiao was unhappy, so she said: "As the heir of the Xiao family, I also want to open up branches and leaves for the Xiao family!" ”
"It's okay for me to have two children with Hongdou, but my mother gave birth to me, and I haven't seen my grandmother marry my father and take a concubine." Xiao Zhi said: "If my mother is really tormented, everyone will fight out when the time comes." ”
Mrs. Xiao suddenly remembered that Xiao Zhi just hasn't made a mistake recently, which doesn't mean that he is not muddy in his bones......
When Xiao Zhi returned to the room, he remembered Xu Min's words, he was not present when Xi Hongdou passed the nail board that day, but Xu Min was present, and the officials in the palace generally did not dare to talk much, but Xu Min said such things to him, which shows how much Xi Hongdou suffered that day. However, he also felt that Xu Min was doing too much, and he was not ready to be a negative man, and he would definitely be with Xi Hongdou for a long time in the future.
The next day, Xi Hongdou got up early in the morning, and after eating, he hurried away, the Xiao family worshiped her ancestors, she couldn't come back during the day, it rained at night, she pondered that she would buy hot and sour soup at noon to eat, and it was rare to have a meal out and eat something new.
At noon, Hu Er came and brought Zhou Danxing here.
Xi Hongdou was puzzled, so he asked, "What's the matter?" "The first two days in the field should be the sowing season, and the rest is weeding, which should not matter.
Hu Er pulled Zhou Danxing and asked, "Dongjia, can I marry Danxing?" ”
Xi Hongdou's eyes were about to fly out, and he hurriedly looked at Zhou Danxing, what did Zhou Danxing do this time? I just went to live outside the city for two days, why did I get in touch with Hu Er?
"Can't!" Xi Hongdou said, and then asked Zhou Danxing to come in with her and say it alone.
"What's the matter with you?" Xi Hongdou said: "It's said that you will fall in love for two days, why don't you listen?" ”
Zhou Danxing lowered her head and said, "I have nowhere to go, didn't you say it, if you find a man to marry, will you follow me?" ”
"I mean, I let you get married, but I didn't let you do anything to my guys? And did you tell anyone about your previous incident? Then Hu Er is my cousin of Hu Ping, why don't you cheat me, just cheat me? Hu Ping knew that Zhou Danxing came out of the kiln, and he must have said it.
Zhou Danxing took Xi Hongdou's hand and said, "So I want to beg you, let your shopkeeper not talk to Hu Er about me, I told Hu Er, I am a widow ......."
"Do you think it's possible? Hu Ping and Hu Er are brothers, if you don't know, forget it, if you know, can people not say it? Also, why should I talk about this, not to mention losing money for you, I still have to lose face, there is no impermeable wall under the sky, or let you leave Kyoto City and go to a place where no one knows you, and then you don't say it for the rest of your life, no one knows what happened to you before! Xi Hongdou was also completely speechless, what the hell is going on with Danxing this week? Do you have a grudge against her?
Zhou Danxing cried again all of a sudden: "Hu Er and I have ......, and I can't turn back!" ”
"What's already?" Xi Hongdou felt that his frowning was about to come out of the Sichuan character pattern!
"It rained last night, and the other two went to the shack by the river, I thought that while it was raining, I would take a shower in the rain, and then I was bumped into ......by Hu Er, and then I ......," Zhou Danxing said, and finally looked embarrassed.
Xi Hongdou rolled his eyes and said directly: "Oh, I'm sorry, Zhou Danxing, your flirtatious tricks are really good, you want to take a shower when it rains in the middle of the night, and you're not afraid of freezing to death!" Did you learn a new skill in that Goolan courtyard, or did you make an old mistake? I don't see you else, and I talk nonsense to men, and you are one top eight! This makes it clear that Zhou Danxing was dishonest and deliberately seduced Hu Er. Hu Er is at the age of youth and vigor, where can he stand this temptation? Now Xi Hongdou feels that he is possessed by Xi's second sister-in-law, and he really wants to scold Danxing this week!
Zhou Danxing didn't talk back, so she said: "Red beans, I can't ......help it."
"You have a lot of options!" Xi Hongdou is about to be powerless to complain.
Hu Er outside was a little anxious, listening to Xi Hongdou inside as if he was talking loudly, thinking that he was angry, he shouted: "Dongjia, don't scold her, it's all my fault, if you want to scold, scold me!" ”
Xi Hongdou was so angry that his blood pressure came up, and he turned his head and shouted: "Do you think I don't scold you?!" Then he said to Zhou Danxing: "You go out, let Hu Ping come in!" ”
Hu Fangcai felt that the situation was not good, and secretly asked Hu Er to know that the two of them had done such a thing, and he was very panicked, Xi Hongdou also went to the kiln to redeem people, and this Hu Er can't really marry such a woman in the future! But what do you say now?
Seeing Zhou Danxing come out and let him go in to talk, Hu Ping hurried in, but he was also annoyed when he looked at Zhou Danxing.
After Xi Hongdou saw Hu Ping, he didn't know what was going on when he saw his expression, so he said: "Brother Hu, you are in charge of this matter, you can say it if you want to." The ball was kicked directly to Hu Ping, and she really ran out of ideas.
