Chapter 007: If the sky is not old, love is inexorable
Since the Pure Space Mage finished doing the Dharma in Xu's Mansion, Xu Zhao asked about the result, the mage was secretive and refused to tell him bluntly, saying that the destiny of heaven could not be violated, so angry that Xu Zhao's teeth itched, and he scolded, only Xu's mother Liu firmly believed in the words of the mage, and thought that Xiang'er Jiren had his own natural appearance, and he would definitely wake up.
"Sir! Madam! Childe is awake! Sanjiu got up early in the morning, prepared a hot water cloth towel, took it to the side room, hung his head down, cried and cried, thinking that the son was afraid that he would never wake up, he slowly pushed open the door, soaked the cloth towel as usual, and before he walked to the bed, he found that the corners of Xu Xianglin's mouth and fingers were moving, his eyes were not open, and under the joy, Sanjiu hurried to the door of the old lady and shouted loudly.
Before the words fell, Xu Zhao and Xu's mother rushed out of the door, rushed to the wing room, Xu's mother did not arrive, the cry arrived first, entered the wing, walked to the bed, held Xiang Lin's hand and hurriedly said: "Xiang'er, Xiang'er?" ”
Xu Xianglin seemed to have a nightmare, beads of sweat flowed down his cheeks, and his mouth was still whispering, Xu's mother brought a cloth towel, wiped his forehead and face, and kept calling his name, Xu Zhao and Sanjiu stood aside and grabbed their hearts, staring at Xiang Lin blankly, not knowing what to do.
"Ziying~!" Xu Xianglin woke up in a dream, sat up suddenly, panted and looked around, and then wanted to get out of bed, suddenly felt a splitting headache, and was about to fall down, Sanjiu hurriedly stepped forward to help him lie down.
"Xiang'er?"
"Mother, father, Sanjiu." Xu Xianglin came to his senses a little, but his expression looked very painful.
Xu Zhao immediately ordered Sanjiu to go down to prepare a decoction and medicine to replenish the porridge, he filled a bowl of water, brought it to Xiang Lin, and said: "Xiang'er, it's all my father's, it's my confusion." ”
"Dad, how can Xiang'er blame you, aren't I awake now, it's okay."
"Xiang'er, I'm looking forward to my mother, I'm going to cry dry, if you don't wake up, my mother will never forgive you in this life..."
"Mother, Xiang'er is not filial, so you are always worried." Xiang Lin Maimai looked at Mother Xu, almost crying, since he was a child, Mother Xu loved him the most, if he went because of this, the grace of nurturing could not be repaid, and he would definitely hate Jiuquan.
Xu Xianglin was not dead, and the lifeless Xu Mansion suddenly became happy again, and the whole courtyard praised Gongzi Fu for his great life, and his life should not be extinguished, especially the many maids who secretly admired Xu Gongzi in the mansion, and heard that his son woke up and cheered, probably because he hadn't heard his piano for too long.
In just half a day's work, the news spread throughout Wushu County, and the idler woman who sighed a few days ago suddenly changed her tone at this time, and her words were all praised, it was really the reeds on the wall that shook with the wind, and it was difficult to break where the wind was true.
Xu Zhao instructed his subordinates to take care of Xiang Lin, the rooster crowed five watches, went to bed at night, and the three meals were all big tonic soups, and they went in and out of Sanjiu, and they didn't dare to slack off. During this period, Liang Yong visited, carefully examined his physical condition, and prescribed medicine to help him recover. In this way, after more than half a month, Xu Xianglin finally regained his former spirit.
"Madam, Xiang'er is now healed from her head illness, and her spirit is better than before, but..."
"Master, if you have something to say, just say it, but don't think about using your bad brains again, after this incident, I understand that I can't let you do nonsense."
"Look at what you said, Xiang'er is also my son, as his father, how could I deliberately harm him, but next year's Jiayue is the month of the big exam, if Xiang'er doesn't review poetry and books, I'm afraid that I will fall off the list again."
"Xiang'er's body has just recovered, you, who are a father, don't go to comfort, but instead take the big exam to force him to study, the divine doctor Liang Gong repeatedly told Xiang'er that he needs to meditate and cultivate, and not to be overly tired, you can do it, but you have to do it, if Xiang'er has three long and two short, I won't live."
"Madam, it's all my fault that Xiang'er suffered from this, but now Xiang'er is fine, it's time to study and study, otherwise after a long time, I'm afraid my studies will be wasted."
"I knew that this would happen, and I should have sent Xiang'er to study at the Xiangxue (that is, the academy that arose in the later dynasty)."
"Xiang'er is stubborn by nature, how many good things I said to him at the beginning, he just didn't go, what can I do, alas."
"If you really want Xiang'er to enter the study, then it's up to me, otherwise you can persuade Xiang'er yourself."
"What's the matter?"
"Xiang'er is over twenty years old, and he has not yet had a wife's room, and now his head has just recovered, and people need to take care of him inside and outside the house, although Sanjiu and Xiang'er are inseparable all day long, but they are also a lot of hearts, but Sanjiu is a servant after all, where can he take care of the things at the head of the bed and the end of the bed, if it is a family affair for Xiang'er, one can be husband and children, and the other can also take care of Xiang'er's daily life, isn't it a good thing to kill two birds with one stone."
"Hmm~ or Mrs. is thoughtful, this idea is very good, but which family's daughter is willing to marry Xiang'er as a wife?" Xu Zhao got up and paced back and forth, thinking worriedly.
"Since the master agrees, then Xiang'er's family affairs will be easy to handle, I know a daughter, or I am willing to marry Xiang'er." Mother Xu seems to have a plan in her heart, and she has a plan in her heart.
"Oh? Madame, come quickly~"
"The person the concubine refers to is that Chen Wan'er."
Chen Wan'er, the youngest daughter of Chen Tong, the eldest son of Chen Xiu, the eldest son of Chen Xiu, is seventeen years old, and she is a natural beauty embryo, all praised:
The shallow clothes and skirts are dragged to the ground, and the silk pendant is decorated with flowers.
The streamers fly long and shake with the wind, and the brocade shoes are full of five-colored glow.
A smile turns into a spring breeze, and a word softens the four waters.
Step by step, blowing and singing are intoxicating.
Everyone in Wushu County knows that Chen Wan'er was born as beautiful as a fairy, but after all, it is the county mansion, how can a grass man be blessed to see the fairy face, in order to be fortunate enough to have a look at Chen Wan'er's alluring appearance, there are often bold people who climb the back wall of the county order courtyard to sneak in, and are found by the people of the palace and sent to the county government for detention as a warning.
In this way, there are still bold and reckless county citizens who don't care about life and death, you fight for me, and rush to climb the wall of the mansion, Chen Tong was worried when he saw this, and ordered all the shameless people to be locked in the cell, and in just one month, the county government cell was full of people, and the back wall of the mansion was also repaired several rounds.
Chen Tong thought to himself that if this continues, I am afraid that the backyard of the mansion will be demolished by the idle Han untouchables, but now the cells are full of people, and these people have not killed people and set fires, and they cannot be convinced by the convictions.
As soon as this remark came out, from the local squires to the county dignitaries, they all came to propose, and the county government was full of guests every day, and the threshold of the main hall was stepped out of a dent.
Chen Tong would have expected that there would be so many dignitaries and dignitaries coming to talk about their relatives, and he wanted to use this idea to calm things down, and also find a good family affair for the little girl, who would have expected that there would be so many visitors, and the old housekeeper of the county order government remembered wave after wave, and the book was also changed after one was recorded.
Not to mention Chen Wan'er's appearance of the country and the city, her mind is also smart, she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she has been spoiled by her mother Cai since she was a child, she does not worry about food and clothing, and she is carefree, but she does not go out of the door on weekdays, and she always seems a little boring and lonely.
Chen Tong's eldest son Chen Xiu and Xu Xianglin were born in the same year, month and day, the two have been friends since childhood, often laughing and playing together, and when they reach the age of studying, the two often get together to read poems and eulogies, and study the Four Books and Five Classics.
Chen Wan'er watched her brother laugh and play with other brothers since she was a child, and she was so unhappy, but Chen Tong warned her that she couldn't play and laugh with men, which was unseemly. Therefore, Chen Wan'er didn't even have a playmate when she was young, so she could only secretly hide aside and watch them play.
is the so-called love over time, after growing up, Chen Wan'er gradually has feelings for Xu Xianglin, and she likes this person more and more with elegant words, heroic posture, and affectionate melancholy between her eyebrows.
The Xu family was originally a wealthy family, and the family business fell into the hands of Xu Zhao but gradually declined, and the county commander Chen Tong previously looked at the beloved son Chen Xiu and Xu Xianglin's friendship, so he barely got close to the Xu family, but now that the two heads of the family have grown up, it is always unorthodox to play like when they were young, and the Xu family has almost become a flat household in the past two years, Chen Tong is not willing to interact with the Xu family at all, but Chen Xiu and Xu Xianglin still meet privately from time to time, but Xu Xianglin has never been to Chen's mansion again, and Chen Xiu comes to him every time.
I haven't seen Xu Xianglin to find my brother for a long time, Chen Wan'er sits alone in the boudoir every day, doesn't think about tea and dinner, stares blankly at the concentric knot made by herself, her eyes are full of pity and expectation, as if she has lost her soul, her mother Cai repeatedly persuaded why this is so, Chen Wan'er is always silent.
A few days ago, Xu Xianglin's fainting death was spread in Wusheng County, and Chen Wan'er, who was closed to the door, heard the maid talk about it, and was even more anxious, and several times she wanted to break out of Chen's mansion, but Chen Tong sent someone to pull her back to the room, and then simply locked her in the boudoir, and the time to eat could be opened.
His mother Cai begged Chen Tong many times to let go of his beloved daughter, but Chen Tong did not allow it, he had already let his daughter marry out, and now there is an endless stream of dignitaries and dignitaries who propose marriage every day.
Welcoming guests in the lobby at one end, wiping tears alone in the boudoir, who can solve anyone's troubles. Brother Chen Xiu is a person who is afraid of things, how dare he contradict his father, so he had to take the opportunity to sneak into the boudoir to persuade her.
Chen Wan'er can't go out of the house now, and when she saw her brother coming, she handed over the concentric knot she held in her arms to him, and asked him to find an opportunity to rush to Xu's mansion and hand it over to Xu Xianglin to show her gratitude.
Chen Xiu heard about Xu Xianglin's matter and was looking for an opportunity to see this elder brother, so he promised Chen Wan'er to go to Xu's mansion at the right time.
