Xiao Yuan left Shangshu Mansion and walked to the corner of the street, where he saw a villager selling and killing washed ducks, one by one resting on the basket to dry the water.

  She poked the preserved meat and poured it into the fat, talked about the price for a long time, and picked a smaller one, planning to stew soup at night to treat Yan Indixia, but she was still a teenager, and it was really difficult for her to take care of Sister Rong.

  How could she have thought of entering the house, Sister Rong'er cried so much that her eyes were red, and she threw herself into her arms aggrievedly, and after coaxing and persuading for a long time, Xiao Yan briefly recounted the passage in a few words, and then said: "He has a blanket on his back and doesn't know where to go!" ”

  Xiao Yuan didn't say anything more, she made dinner and ate it, Sister Rong was tired from crying all day, so she washed up and fell asleep early, and she went downstairs to sit in the hall, twisted the wick and continued to do embroidery.

  Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and she asked, "Who is it?" "Reply: It was Mrs. Zhang from the incense candle paper horse shop, and hurriedly opened the latch to let her in and sit.

  Zhang Po carried a string of snacks on the table, and said with a smile: "Why don't you see Brother Yun and Sister Rong?" ”

  "Brother Yun is studying, and Sister Rong has fallen asleep."

  "How are you doing in the Zhao Mansion? Are those young masters and young ladies embarrassed? ”

  "The dumplings you made yesterday taste good, how is the meat filling matched?"

  Xiao Yuan answered them one by one, and suddenly pursed her lips and smiled: "Mrs. Zhang, you have something to say directly, don't talk about it left and right." ”

  Zhang Po also laughed: "I am entrusted by others, so I salivate to find you with an old face." ”

  "What do you entrust?"

  Zhang Po said: "It is for Zhang Gui next door, he is now twenty and five, dignified, has a widowed mother, opened this fish shop, not only sells lively fresh food, but also sells dried fish and red grains, the business is booming, and the money is also abundant." The unmarried girls on this street all want to marry him, and he is a sweetheart. What does Mrs. Xiao think of him? ”

  Xiao Yuan is extremely smart, she guessed her meaning in a few words, and after thinking about it, she said: "Zhang Gui has nothing to say. ”

  Zhang Po sighed: "He didn't ask for a daughter-in-law in his twenties and fives, one is that the fish shop is too busy, and the other is that he is always wrong." However, as the saying goes, there is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, and it is difficult to hold hands without a fate on the other side. This immortal god sent the destined one to meet him. ”

  Xiao Yuan wanted to laugh when she heard this, and pretended not to understand: "Then dare to be kind, which girl is destined, I will also help you to make peace together." ”

  Zhang Po said: "Far away in the sky, close in front of you, isn't it Xiao Niangzi!" ”

  "Mrs. Zhang, don't be joking." Xiao Yuan hurriedly waved her hand: "I'm just a widow who has lost her husband, and I still have to support my younger siblings, where can I be worthy of him." ”

  Zhang Po shook her head: "He doesn't care about this, he is a sincere person, and he rejoices in your heart." ”

  Xiao Yuan pondered for a while: "What did his mother say?" ”

  Zhang Po was a little choked: "I had some ideas, but Zhang Gui insisted on doing so, so she couldn't help but agree." ”

  Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "Mrs. Zhang, I won't hide it from you, I will tell you the truth here, Brother Tuan, he is in the spring of this year, if he can be on the list, he will naturally be happy, if not, he will have to study hard for three years, and the tuition and expenses of the school will be expensive." There is also my little sister, who has been weak and sick since childhood, and chooses ginseng, deer antler and snow lotus and other precious medicinal materials every day to continue her life, I am also a daughter with a family education, but I have to marry as a match, and I will not show up again, if I marry Zhang Gui as my wife, this family needs him to support, only rely on that fish shop" She paused: "I'm afraid that I will drag him down, and I also bother Zhang Po to tell Zhang Gui and his mother truthfully, if he still doesn't mind, you can choose an auspicious day to propose." ”
