193 Laba Festival
Since Jin Se said goodbye to now, in the blink of an eye, it has been nearly two months.
It's the middle of winter!
Today is already Laba, and I only went to the yamen to deal with it in the morning, and everyone dispersed. Right now, He Xuan is nesting in the house, drinking warm porridge, and unconsciously thinks of Jinse again!
Looking at Liao Geng, who was also lonely on the other side of him, He Xuan smiled and said, "Is it hard?" ”
"What?" Liao Geng suddenly heard He Xuan's voice, but he didn't hear what she said clearly, so he asked.
"I ask you, do you think she thinks so hard?"
Hearing He Xuan's question, Liao Geng smiled bitterly.
"If it's hard work, give up. I heard Yuqing say that recently, many people have come to propose marriage, and they are all coming for you. ”
Liao Geng shook his head and said, "No matter how hard it is, I will wait." The wife of my life will only be her, and that position will be hers...... I don't want to marry someone else, even if I do, I will only fail others, it is better to let their parents choose a good match for them...... Why bother to lose yourself, Jinse, and the innocent person. ”
He Xuan listened to Liao Geng's words, and felt warm in her heart. To be selfish, it is a happy thing to have such a person for her to be obsessed with her.
"I don't know if she's okay now...... Liao Geng said.
"It's been so long, and there's no news, it's a good thing."
"Is it a good thing?"
"Of course. If you really hear something, it's not good. ”
Hearing He Xuan say this, Liao Geng nodded and muttered, "Yes!" ”
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and although it was through the thick curtain, I still felt a strong wind blowing in. came in with the wind, and Liao Yong!
"I'm freezing to death!" As he spoke, Liao Yong hurriedly walked to the stove and roasted his hands.
"Where did you go on such a cold day?"
Seeing that he was cold like this, He Xuan poured a cup of tea, but did not send it over, only put it on the table.
"You, why do you have such a bad memory now! Didn't you say yesterday that you want to eat rock sugar gourd? It's just that it's hard to buy it myself, so I'm going to buy it for you today. I'm afraid that if I take it into the house, it will melt and let people freeze outside. You poured it, and you didn't bring me the tea after pouring it. ”
Hearing what he said, He Xuan and Liao Geng looked at each other and smiled, He Xuan didn't speak, but Liao Geng spoke.
"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid that you just ate the wind outside, and if you drink hot tea again, it will be uncomfortable, so you can breathe a sigh of relief!"
"Nonsense again. After the New Year, let's go back to the south with my uncle and aunt. With him here, you really can't learn anything good! He Xuan glared at Liao Geng, but felt quite comfortable in his heart.
"Is it snowing outside again?" He Xuan asked.
"Not really. There has been a lot of rain and snow this year! Liao Yong replied.
These days, the elders of the Liao family can also see the affection between their eldest son and He Xuan, so those who came to propose marriage for Liao Yong were all blocked back.
Hearing Liao Geng's words, Liao Yong understood. His hands and feet were also warmed at this time, so he walked to the table, picked up the tea, and then smiled at He Xuan and said, "There is Mrs. Lao!" ”
"You two ......" He Xuan heard Liao Yong call herself "madam" like this, her face turned red suddenly, she stood up, and said, "Ignore you." Then a dozen curtains went out.
"It can't be really annoying, right?" Liao Geng looked at his brother and asked.
"What's annoying us? I'm just thinking about the sugar gourd! ”
With that, both brothers laughed.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, He Xuan is also busy. There are many things to prepare for the New Year in the palace, and there are also a lot of ritual utensils, many things are used once a year, and He Xuan will start to be busy today after he is free.
"You can finish stealing today's lazy child from her. After today, in the past ten days, I have no time to speak. ”
"Are you that busy?" Liao Geng asked.
"Isn't it that busy? Think about it, don't talk about the palace, just say that in our family, when it comes to the next year, how much gift money to be released, offerings to be prepared, and ritual utensils and the like, you can calculate it yourself. And then there are all kinds of things sent from the Zhuangzi, and the money paid from the buying and selling everywhere, how many accounts have to be reconciled, and so on? ”
"Don't say I don't know, it's really a lot of things."
"You're here this year, don't be lazy, and help me and dad with this. We're done early, and we're free! ”
Liao Geng listened to his brother's words and understood what he meant, Liao Yong never thought of monopolizing this industry in the future, and let Liao Geng get started, just hoping that the two would be equally divided in the future, so that his parents could rest assured.
While he was talking, He Xuan walked in while nibbling on a sugar gourd, still holding a letter in his hand.
"Hui Ya, there is your letter."
"Mine?" Liao Geng is a little strange, there seems to be no one who has correspondence with him! Besides, even if there is, it will be sent to the house in the south, and then they will send it here once a month. Who will send this to me?
Liao Geng opened the letter curiously, but it was written by Aunt Jiao.
Hearing Liao Geng say this, He Xuan and Liao Yonghe were a little surprised, and waited until Liao Geng finished reading it before handing over the letter to He Xuan and Liao Yong.
It turned out that after Aunt Jiao left Jinse, she really didn't know where to go. Stop here, stop there, so, until some time ago I settled in a small town in the north. After everything was stable and Aunt Jiao was sure that there was no danger, she wrote a letter to Liao Geng. It's just that he reported his own safety, and asked about the current situation of Jinse.
"You say, 'How shall I reply to this letter?' Liao Geng asked.
"What do you want to do?" Liao Yong asked.
"Now that there is no news from Jinse, I don't know what to say. What is written on it, you see it too. Aunt Jiao said that if the girl's condition is not good, she will move again...... But if I move again, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to contact me in the future. But if you say that you are okay, if Aunt Jiao thinks that she is safe and sound, what can she do when she comes back? ”
He Xuan stood at the window, looked at the heavy snow outside, thought for a moment, and said, "You can tell Aunt Jiao like this." Let's just say that the current Jinse...... Let's just say that she is fine now, but it is not appropriate to see each other. Wait until everything is stable and then make plans! ”
"So, is it a lie to her?" Liao Geng asked.
"At the moment, there is no news from Jinse, which means that King Xian has not found her whereabouts like us, and this is good. It's not a lie. Besides, Aunt Jiao is a woman's family, and she doesn't have much kung fu, so she can choose the place where she is staying now, so naturally she can feel at ease. Since you can rest assured, let's let her live first. It's better than drifting, isn't it? ”
Hearing Liao Yong say this, Liao Geng also nodded and said, "Okay, I'll write a reply." ”
……
Today, Zuo Junzhong's family was invited to the palace by Concubine Zuo.
Wen Xi looked at the little highness who could already sit up, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and teased him in every way.
Now that the relationship between Wenxi and Zuo Liang is getting better and better, the two of them are no longer as vindictive as before.
"Look at Wenxi, I'm still a child, and I like children so much." Zuo Niangniang said to Mrs. Zuo with a smile.
"It's not ......," and then whispered to the mother, "She herself is in a hurry, and she is always looking forward to good news." ”
"Mother......
Hearing Mrs. Zuo say this, Wen Xi was embarrassed.
"It's not a rush...... The more anxious you are, the less he comes. If you're not in a hurry, just let it be, and he'll come to the door. Zuo Niangniang said with a smile.
"Really?" Wen Xi asked with wide eyes.
"What did the mother lie to you!" Mrs. Zuo smiled helplessly, for her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zuo really likes her, and it is better to spoil her than to spoil Zuo Liang, and there is no taboo between this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Hearing Mrs. Zuo say this, Wenxi stuck out her tongue!
When they returned home that night and the couple went to bed, Wenxi and Zuo Liang said, "Are you in a hurry? ”
"What's the hurry?"
"O child! I've been married to you for half a year, but there's no movement at all! ”
Listening to Wen Xi's words, Zuo Liang smiled, scratched her small and cute nose, and said, "You treat you as a kitten and a puppy." If you come to the group, you will get pregnant as long as you come to it once or twice? ”
"You're a kitten and a puppy!" Wen Xi slapped Zuo Liang, "I'm afraid that my father and mother will be in a hurry." They are not young anymore, you haven't seen it, and today's mother's eyes have never left the mother's child. ”
"My mother is not looking at the child, but you. She is afraid that you will not be able to hold it well and drop the prince! Zuo Liang said with a smile.
"Alas......" Wen Xi sighed.
"Under the big festival, what are you sighing for?"
"These are the two things I can't worry about right now."
"Which two?"
"One piece, I'm afraid I won't be able to conceive a child......"
"Don't talk nonsense, how old are you! Just say that you are pregnant with a child! Niangniang didn't say it all, you were too anxious. The matter of the heir can be met but not sought. Don't say anything like that. ”
Wen Xi rolled in Zuo Liang's arms, and then asked in a low voice, "If I really can't give birth to a child, you won't want me, right?" ”
"Nope! In fact, having a big kid like you in the family is enough to make trouble. Let's take a small one, I'm really afraid that my father and mother won't be able to bear it. After saying that, both of them laughed.
"What about the other one?" Zuo Liang asked.
"It's not one family, it's He Xuan. We always say help her leave, but how? I thought about this when I had nothing to do at home, but in the end, I was denied by myself. ”
Zuo Liang looked at his little wife, pinched her chin, and whispered, "This matter also depends on the opportunity." In the same way, opportunities are hard to come by. It's not something you and I can manipulate. What a mess you have in your little head! Leave these things to me. Don't think about it all the time, okay? ”
"But it's so boring for people to be bored at home every day."
"It's boring...... It looks like the Chinese New Year is coming, are you ready to enter the palace? We can't do it again! Etiquette is not etiquette, rules are not rules! ”
"I don't mind."
"I mind!"
Zuo Liang smiled and looked at his wife, Wen Xi hurriedly tightened the quilt and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
"Don't you want children?"
"Don't ...... Now"
"I want it!"
