Chapter 38, pick up the little idea

Before answering the small idea, you must inquire clearly. Lin Xiaochu usually doesn't say that he can't say that he can't go out of the second door, that is, there are few doors in this courtyard. The ancients could live a lifetime by planting flowers and watching water in the garden, and Lin Xiaochu passed by himself, so he knew that this was true.

Now to inquire about the difference between a girl who sells her body and a girl who doesn't, Lin Xiaochu went to ask Jinxi'er first. After her hard work in the past two days, Jin Xi'er learned to please the waiter, and she was a little more polite. In response to Lin Xiaochu's question, Jin Xi'er smiled: "Don't sell yourself? You're talking about your sister. ”

Lin Xiaochu had to ask a little more heartily: "How do you know that you are talking about my sister?" "It seems that the son is still holding my sister, which is worrying. Jin Xi'er grinned: "The ship will arrive the day after tomorrow, are you willing to leave your sister?" The next time I come back, I don't know when it will be. ”

"But I don't want Xiaoyi to sell myself."

"The girls who serve at home are not only selling their bodies, but also most of them are children. A son-in-law like you picks it yourself, and only then does he go to the son's room as soon as he comes. Your sister refuses to sell herself, so she can only be a little girl. Carrying water and chopping wood to do rough work is bitter. ”

Lin Xiaochu frowned lightly, and Jin Xi'er made a joke: "I'm a kid, so I don't necessarily know." Our yard businessman's mother, you go and ask. ”

In the courtyard, the red plum spit calyx, and Lin Xiaochu walked from the fragrant red plum to the side room. Shang's mother is a needlework person, and Lin Xiaochu learned needle fingers to ask her for advice. After listening to Xiao Chu's questioning, Shang's mother said it with a smile.

"You've been in Gongzi for a few months, and you're just a horse without a hitch." Hearing this, Xiao Chu stuck out his tongue first. Mother Shen, who was sitting next to her, also laughed: "Miss Xiaochu actually doesn't know the rules at home. ”

Shang's mother continued: "You and Lotus are not out of the hospital, and they have been waiting for a few months. Only in this courtyard, if the son has a word, don't try to be quiet too much, so you can be presumptuous. When you go to Beijing, you can take a good look at what the big girl does and what the little girl does. I have looked at your temperament every day, and you are the one who can be aggrieved by yourself, but you can't see your sister aggrieved. You must know that little girls learn only after being beaten and scolded. ”

"I still remember when I was a child, Lao Qin's mother was the housekeeper, and one year it was also snowy and slippery, and that day it was me who served and went to the kitchen to pick up the food box. When you meet the beheading person at home, say a few more words on the road. I still remember being seen and said that I was just playful, and I still remember that beating. Shen's mother sighed and said.

After asking and asking, Lin Xiaochu returned to the room dejectedly. As soon as Chu Huaixian, who was at the desk, looked up, and saw Xiao Chu depressed on the window, he asked Jin Xi'er: "What's wrong with her?"

"I want to pick up her sister, but I'm afraid of being beaten and scolded." Jin Xi'er only smiled, Chu Huaixian put down the book in his hand: "She listened to the rules in vain, and when she returned to the capital to have nothing to do, she pulled her face, and she was beaten." "Waiting in front of the master, how can you come out with a face. This girl is a wild woman.

Lin Xiaochu didn't stay in the room, and came to Xi'er to call her: "Someone is watching you outside, I'll lead you up to the second door." "The person who came to see was my brother-in-law, and when I saw Xiao Chu come out, he was dressed in a delicate yellow brocade robe, with a golden hairpin pinned to his hair, and his ear beads were also golden. When the brother-in-law came, he hesitated, and this moment the fire came up. When you are happy, you don't care about your intentions.

"If you want to celebrate the New Year, the local security will come to check once in three or two days. Xiaoyi can stay at my house, she is diligent and capable. It's just that you have to write an essay, which means that you are fostered in my house, and you won't be said that we harbor the population. "Although there was no ID card in ancient times, the household registration was checked.

Xiao Chu lowered his head and hesitated, and on his head was the lotus envy of the step, a total of only a few cents of gold, a few small rice beads. The rice beads collided softly, Xiao Chu raised his head, and said firmly: "Xiao Yi and I will go to the capital together." ”

The environment is like this, Lin Xiaochu decided to face reality. In ancient times, there was no shame in being a girl, but it was not dark in front of you to be a girl. Look at your thick brocade clothes, at least put one on, and it is better to work in a warm room than in the cold outside.

went back to Chu Huaixian, Chu Huaixian immediately asked people to set up a car, and Jin Xi'er stepped forward with a wry smile: "It's still a slave to accompany me." It was snowing heavily, and Jin Xi'er was riding a horse with her two families. The road is a headwind, and when the wind and snow hit the face, people will be excited, and if they hit again, they will be stiff and unconscious. Xiao Chu in the carriage couldn't feel it, there was a fixed brazier in the car, and there was a charcoal fire burning in it, and the silver charcoal was softly smoked in the car.

Xiaochu is a carriage, and his brother-in-law is an ox cart, and the carriage runs in front of him in the long snowy road. Stopped in front of my sister's house in Shengdi, Jin Xi'er opened the curtain and put down the small bench, and did not support the girl who got off the car, and the one who got off the car was a girl.

Pushing open the wooden courtyard door, Xiaoyi was struggling to fetch water on the well platform. She was wearing an old padded jacket, but the skirt of her dress was wet. Xiao Chu was ashamed to come here, and everyone was well fed and dressed. The free human dignity that I thought about came out when I shouldn't have come out.

"Xiaoyi," Xiao Chu called softly, and then ran over with his skirt.

The small mind is weak, and only half a bucket of water is fetched. When I put half a bucket of water on the well platform, I heard a familiar shout. Xiaoyi's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it: "Sister? Then he threw himself into Xiao Chu's arms: "You came to see me." ”

Lin Xiaochu's eyes were red, he lowered his head and pulled up Xiaoyi's little face, Xiaoyi's eyes were also red, and there were tears in his eyes: "Sister, I dreamed of you last night, you came to see me before you went to Beijing and made me obedient." Are you leaving? ”

"Yes, but I'll take you along." Jin Xi'er came in later, and the two sisters hugged each other and shed tears. Jin Xi'er hurriedly smiled and persuaded: "There is no need to separate in the future." Xiao Chu, say hello to this master, it's not early, we have to go back early. ”

Xiaoyi pulled her sister and didn't let go: "Really? Pick me up too. Great, I'm willing to go. At this moment, Sister Shengdi walked out, and when she saw that it was Xiao Chu, she wiped her hands with an apron and smiled.

Hearing that it was to pick up Xiaoyi, Sister Shengdi was somewhat gloomy, taking advantage of her husband's absence. Sister Shengdi said embarrassedly: "Our family is wronged." ”

Lin Xiaoyi took advantage of his wishes, and continued: "It's good for me, that is, I miss my sister every night." "A gust of north wind blew wildly, and the snow hit everyone. Shengdi's brother-in-law also entered the door at this time, and said with a smile: "Sit in the house, what are you all doing standing in the courtyard." ”

Lin Xiaoyi's things are simpler, and they will be cleaned up after a while. Sister Shengdi also returned the money given by Xiao Chu at the beginning, and the family sent them to the door. Lin Xiaochu looked at Sister Shengdi, and then looked at Brother-in-law Shengdi. Suddenly, I was only grateful, and the couple had no relatives or relatives, just to say that they had also taken in and helped. In addition to gratitude, the person Lin Xiaochu can't forget, Sun Erhai came to his heart again.

When he came back to see his son, Lin Xiaoyi changed into a pink brocade shirt and a green skirt in the carriage, and his hair was also recombed, only two small hands were red and swollen, which could be seen to be a person who did hard work.

Chu Huaixian was in a deliberative tone: "Is your sister selling herself or not?" We rarely hire people at home, but I can help. ”

Lin Xiaochu gave Chu Huaixian a salute in a dignified manner: "Go back to Gongzi, then don't sell yourself." Petty is smart and capable, and may not be beaten and scolded much. Chu Huaixian smiled: "It's like my family, only beating and scolding." ”

Having said this, let Jin Xi'er take the paperwork, Lin Xiaochu looked at it clearly, wrote the name for Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi pressed the handprint, and said happily to his sister: "Where my sister is in the future, I will be there." ”

Lin Xiaochu's eyes were red again, and when she came, she asked Xiaoyi in the carriage, and of course Sister Shengdi treated her. No matter how good it is, it's not a sister, and there is no such warmth. Xiao Chu hugged his sister and felt warmth in his bones. In this heavy snow, you won't feel cold when you go out.

After dinner, a mother-in-law came to see Shang's mother: "Say that the junior girl is in front of the son, and say a word." My granddaughter followed her Lao Tzu Niang in Beijing, last year the old lady's room was selected, and her Lao Tzu Niang was useless, and she chose the daughter of the Wu family in the treasury. ”

This is a good mother of Shang's mother. Shang's mother shook her head after hearing this: "Let's look at it for a while, the girls who serve you, it's common to come up and go down for a while." She is more satisfactory here, but she is just a son in love, just like the masters eat a dish, and sometimes they also eat a wild idea. Back in Beijing, there are already big and small girls in the child's room, and it's hard to say whether she will stand on her feet or not. ”

Mother You also made sense when she thought about it, and was about to speak. A reprimand suddenly came from the upper room, and it was Chu Huaixian who raised his voice and shouted: "You didn't say this, it's too bold!" ”

"How? Only Xiao Chu stayed in the room, and I saw her go in before you came. Shang's mother said as if she was old: "One day is not good, one day is not good, one day is not good." You ask for people, and you seriously ask for the right people in the old lady's room. ”

In the main room, Chu Huaixian's face was gloomy: "I don't care what kind of festival you and Sun Erhai have, but you want to instruct me to have private intentions for you, slave, you look in the mirror, do you have this ability." ”

Lin Xiaochu was silent, the ancients were not all stupid. When laughing with Gongzi, he pretended to be unintentional and said: "There are traitors in this city, just Sun Erhai, I don't owe him money......"

Just speaking of this, Chu Huaixian was furious and taught a lesson. The night was cold and the stars were dark, and Lin Xiaochu, who was returning to the room on the corridor, hated the cold sky.

"Sister, I stayed at my eldest sister's house, and my brother-in-law said that Childe is powerful and powerful. Sister Lotus said that Childe spoils you, you let Childe beat up Mrs. Qian and Sun Erhai. "Coincidentally, when I fell asleep, I said the same thing next to my pillow.

Xiao Chu first looked at the lotus flower asleep opposite, how could he say to the child whether the son is spoiled or not, this has to teach the child badly. And then sigh, Mrs. Qian and Sun Erhai all want to prick a villain and stab them every day. Tucked the corners of the quilt, Lin Xiaochu said: "Sleep, the son is not easy to command." "And Childe meant it, I don't think they're too bad.

Those who have worked hard for the prince of Chu are naturally a different matter.
