Chapter Eighty-Seven: Concubines? No door!

After Xiao Zhi returned to the room, he didn't forget to read, he still remembered the agreement with Xi Hongdou, first test the fame and then say, if he can't pass the exam this time, it will take another three years to marry Xi Hongdou at the earliest. In order to marry his daughter-in-law smoothly, he has to work harder.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be a small test within the college, and everyone is gearing up, because Mr. will determine the name according to this small test, and then everyone's name will be weighed.

When Xi Hongdou heard that there was going to be a small exam, he comforted Xiao Zhi in advance: "Those who can enter Gyeonggi College are definitely not stupid, the ranking is not important, the focus is on participation!" When Xiao Zhi was admitted to the hospital before, her grades were the last to pass the base, and she was afraid that Xiao Zhi would be disappointed after seeing the rankings. I heard that the current primary schools are not allowed to engage in these rankings, because they are afraid that the children's rankings will hurt their self-esteem, but looking at Xiao Zhi's enthusiasm for learning in the past few days, she feels that although the method of ranking names is simple and rude, it is indeed motivating, and students who are long-minded will definitely study hard.

Xiao Zhi smiled bitterly: "I know, don't worry." And he can no longer be at the same level as when he entered the school, and the small test is just a good time for him to look at his own catties, and he also has a reliable evaluation of himself.

Xi Hongdou didn't dare to disturb Xiao Zhi reading more, so he left first after delivering the sweet soup, and happened to see Mrs. Xiao when he went out.

"How's it going?" Mrs. Xiao whispered, afraid that the voice would be loud and noisy enough for Xiao Zhi to read.

Xi Hongdou also whispered back: "I have fighting spirit, I learned very well!" ”

Mrs. Xiao smiled and was satisfied, and then left the courtyard with Xi Hongdou first, and took Xi Hongdou to her own courtyard to drink tea and chat.

"Hongdou, you will definitely be the daughter-in-law of our family's main house in the future, but ......" Mrs. Xiao paused: "But if you take a concubine, you won't mind." ”

As soon as Xi Hongdou heard about the concubine, he said: "This ......" She hasn't passed the door yet, isn't it a little inappropriate to mention the matter of the concubine?

Mrs. Xiao hurriedly smiled and said, "That's what I said, men, it's normal to have three wives and four concubines." ”

Xi Hongdou saw that this Mrs. Xiao was vaccinated in advance, and the essence was to the effect: If my son cheats in the future, you can't be angry, and you have to think that this is normal!

What's normal about this? Even if the phenomenon of three wives and four concubines is common, Xi Hongdou doesn't believe that when a wife watches her husband go to another woman, this kind of thing can feel good! Anyway, she is uncomfortable, she is already uncomfortable just by hearing Mrs. Xiao say this!

"I can't be the master of this matter, if Xiao Zhi wants to marry, I won't stop it, I can still make room for it, it's boring to take a concubine, as soon as I leave, wouldn't it be better to straighten it out directly?" Xi Hongdou said with a smile, her attitude is also obvious, she doesn't care about the third phase of others, she doesn't want to be in the fish pond herself.

Mrs. Xiao also heard what Xi Hongdou meant, so she said, "Look at you, you can talk about it in a hurry." ”

Xi Hongdou smiled bitterly, if she is in a hurry, why is she in a hurry?

"Madam, I still have a life, I'll go first." Xi Hongdou said, this Mrs. Xiao still doesn't like her very much, otherwise she shouldn't tell her about taking a concubine.

Mrs. Xiao also regretted saying it, forgetting Xi Hongdou's stubborn temperament.

Xi Hongdou left on the front foot, and Mrs. Su came to the door to drink tea on the back foot, and the purpose was naturally obvious, that is, she wanted to make a marriage with the Xiao family.

Mrs. Xiao muttered in her heart, so she said: "Forget it, Hongdou doesn't agree to say it, and my son doesn't agree either." "Even if Xi Hongdou's opinion is not listened to, Xiao Zhi's opinion must be listened to.

Xiao Zhi said that she refused very seriously that day, this had to be forced, and she couldn't hold Xiao Zhi's donkey temper.

Mrs. Su said, "This ...... It may be that the two children don't understand each other, so let's match, and we may agree. ”

Mrs. Xiao still shook her head: "This thing is really not good, forget it, don't mention it in the future." "She wants to marry her son with a good family background, but this marriage still depends on your willingness, and if you screw it together, you will have a grudge.

Mrs. Su naturally refused, Mrs. Xiao was relieved, it had come to this point, how could it be just like that! But their family is marrying a daughter, not shoehorning a woman into the Xiao family, if they chase too closely, I'm afraid that people will think that her daughter is worthless.

Mrs. Su went home, thinking about whether this matter was settled or what, she was unwilling, but what could she do if she was unwilling, the road was blocked to death, and she couldn't do it if she didn't give up.

Su Yuanjia saw that his mother was worried, so he asked about the situation, and when he saw that it was related to Xi Hongdou, he said: "If Xiao Zhi refuses, then let that Xi Hongdou give up by himself?" ”

"People are not stupid, the Xiao family that has finally climbed up, unless you marry the prince, why should you give up yourself?" Mrs. Su sighed, think about it, it's better to find someone else for Su Huiwan, then Mrs. Chu seems to be also interested in getting married, so she can study it well.

When Su Yuanjia heard this, he said: "Women, feelings are more important, if someone can make Xi Hongdou change his mind and not marry, then it will be fine." ”

"Who?" Mrs. Su felt unlikely: "That Xi Hongdou is also a ruthless person, if there is no emotion, can Xi Hongdou be willing to step on the nail board for the Xiao family to sue the royal court?" She can see this love than Jin Jian's strength, don't think about it, she is tired.

Su Yuanjia has his own thoughts in his heart, that Xi Hongdou is indeed interesting, and he is also itching in his heart, if he can make Xi Hongdou like himself, won't all problems be solved?

"Mother, let me try!" Su Yuanjia said that before he came to Kyoto City, he was also a beautiful son in the local area, with a good reputation and a good reputation, in terms of reputation, he is always better than Xiao Zhi, the demon king of the mixed world, if you want to talk about appearance, Xiao Zhi is handsome, but he is not bad!

Mrs. Su saw that Su Yuanjia had an idea, so she said, "What can you do?" ”

"Mother, don't ask, look at me, my sister's wedding will be released before the wedding." Su Yuanjia said, go back to study the strategy.

Mrs. Su didn't know what Su Yuanjia was going to do, but when she thought of the fat ball-like son of the Chu family, Mrs. Su felt that it was better to be cautious.

The small shop here is in full swing, the weather is cooling, and the barbecue stall has not affected the business at all, but there are more and more customers.

Zhou Danxing came to help, but she was busy.

Sister-in-law Hu knew Zhou Danxing's old background, but Xi Hongdou asked Zhou Danxing to help, and she didn't have to say anything, but she told her daughter to stay away from Zhou Danxing on weekdays, for fear that she would learn badly.

Zhou Danxing is not stupid, it can be seen that Sister-in-law Hu is not very welcome to her, but now they are also considered concubines, and they can only get by on the big side.

It's been a while since the merchants left Huifu, and the inventory they exchanged before was almost used, so Xi Hongdou wrote a letter and went to the post house.

Because of the trade between the two sides, this post house was specially set up, and Xi Hongdou pondered that this was equivalent to an "embassy".

The post house took care of the letters sent to Hui Hui, but the letters needed to be strictly reviewed, and there must be no collaborators with the enemy, and it was found that it must be a felony. Xi Hongdou didn't write anything else, only wrote how many cattle and how many sheep he wanted, and the address was also attached, and the people at the post house sent it out after checking that there was no problem.

Xi Hongdou counts the days, except for the time of coming and going, it is enough.

"It's just that the money used to deliver the letter is a bit expensive!" Xi Hongdou was a little distressed about money, when he went back to the shop, there were candy pear cakes selling on the road, remembering that Xiao Zhi seemed to like to eat, so he directly bought a small bag and prepared to go back to coax Xiao Zhi, just turned his head and almost bumped into someone, but fortunately she flashed and didn't bump into it.

"Red Bean Girl, that's a coincidence." Su Yuanjia said with a smile.

When Xi Hongdou saw that it was Su Yuanjia, he smiled coincidentally: "It's a coincidence, you are busy first." "Then it's going your own way.

Su Yuanjia came to block the red beans on purpose, so naturally he couldn't leave like this, so he said: "The red bean girl helped me more than once before, and I have to express my gratitude." ”

"No, I really don't." Xi Hongdou didn't want to entangle, her sister made trouble with her brother, and she and the Su family's brothers and sisters did not agree with each other.

"Red Bean Girl, just tell me what you want first, as long as I can do it, I can get it for you." Su Yuanjia made the first move, showing off!

Women like men to be generous and don't pick the door, Su Yuanjia wants to have a good feeling.

Xi Hongdou smiled: "It's so polite, I really don't need it!" Xi Hongdou hurriedly ran, and was relieved to see that Su Yuanjia did not catch up behind him.

In the next few days, Xi Hongdou found that Su Yuanjia seemed to always come to the grain store to hang around, and he didn't come close, just to hang around, although it didn't affect the business, but it also affected the mood.

"Hongdou, I see that person always seems to be staring at you, and he looks like a rich boy!" Zhou Danxing came over with a gossipy look, looked at Su Yuanjia and said with a smile: "You look pretty good!" ”

Xi Hongdou rolled his eyes: "Busy with your work!" ”

Zhou Danxing pursed her lips and said: "Isn't this just idle chat, if you want me to say that your life is too good, no wonder you divorced Zhang Shiliang, now that I think about it, you don't look down on Zhang Shiliang!" ”

"Bah, why can't I ask you why I quit the marriage!" Xi Hongdou said: "Hurry up and work, the city gate will be closed in a while!" "Zhou Danxing has to go to the city after dark, so she can work during the day, and she can't help at night.

Zhou Danxing cleaned up and said, "But I also envy you, why are all the good things around you, so I can't meet them?" "In the end, I married a Hu Er, and I was not welcomed, this person really had to be thrown away compared to people.

Xi Hongdou bared his teeth: "What kind of calf are you talking about?!" Hurry up and leave yours, and don't go and beat you again! ”

Zhou Danxing didn't say anything, let her go, Xi Hongdou was hairy in her heart, this Su Yuanjia wouldn't be holding back anything bad for his sister Su Huiwan, right?
