Chapter 189: The Bear Child Really Died
"Sister Yao, are there any other people in your family? Will you come to the Imperial City to do business? If so, would you like to let them bring the hedgehog and the red fruit? Chu Yan'er really wanted to eat the red fruits and hedgehogs on the mountain this season, and begged Yao's Dao.
Yao thought that his family was so poor, if he handed something to the Chu family, he definitely had to see her, as soon as he saw her, didn't the Chu family know that she was a poor girl? At that time, Chu Yaocen must dislike her for being a poor girl, will her life be ruined soon? But if you reject Chu Yan'er, what words should you use to refuse?
Yao didn't answer for a long time, Duanmu thought about what kind of difficulty she should have, so he said to Chu Yan'er: "Yan'er, don't be embarrassed for Ginkgo, Ginkgo's family must have a lot of things to do, where can I have time to send something to you?" ”
"No, no, I didn't mean that Sister Yao's family sent things here, I just wanted Sister Yao's family to come to the imperial city to send them by the way," Chu Yan'er replied to the Duanmu clan, and then turned to the Yao clan and said, "Sister Yao, your family lives in Lingshan, so you will definitely come to the imperial city every once in a while to sell things, right?" ”
Yes, the Yao family makes a living by selling fruits and game from the mountains, and under normal circumstances, as long as there is a market in the imperial city, they will come over, but the crux of the matter is that she doesn't want the Chu family to know that the people in her family are like that.
"If it's inconvenient for them, I can go to the West Market to get it in person, and I don't have to give me a bargain, I will give it whatever price I want." Chu Yan'er said to her with a smile.
Qingdi saw that Chu Yan'er was also kind. Otherwise, there are so many people from Lingshan who come out to set up stalls in the market every day, and it is very convenient for her to eat, why do she have to buy her family's things?
However, Yao has never been careful, and probably has her difficulties. Qingdi said to Chu Yan'er: "Yan'er, if you want to eat, just ask your second brother to send someone to pick it on the mountain, the family members of Ginkgo must be very busy, how can they take care of you." ”
As soon as Chu Yan'er heard her sister-in-law and sister-in-law tell her to stop talking, she also reacted, so she let out a soft "oh" and said, "Okay, I know." ”
Yao Shi breathed a sigh of relief, but he felt that he had been silent just now, would he make himself look bad and make Chu Yan'er hate himself? After thinking about it, she hurriedly said to Chu Yan'er: "Yan'er, my family is relatively busy, my younger brothers are all studying, and they plan to take the imperial examination next spring, and my father and mother don't come out often, so I'm sorry ......"
"It's okay, it's okay," Chu Yan'er waved her hand again and again: "What's the matter, didn't the second sister-in-law say it just now, I want the second brother to send someone to pick it up in person." ”
Seeing that Chu Yan'er finally reacted, Duanmu nodded and smiled slightly, and asked Yao again: "You just said that your younger brothers are preparing for the imperial examination, and your family is a scholarly family?" ”
Yao's heart trembled, where is her family a scholarly family, it is a hunter who doesn't even have a field, she knows a few words, or when she was a child, she went to the private school at the entrance of the village to learn it secretly, and the other brothers and sisters in the family don't know a single word.
But since Duanmu asked, she had no choice but to continue to lie, and said: "I can't call it a scholarly family, but my family loves to read." ”
Speaking of loving reading, Duanmu said something, she asked, "Does Sister Ginkgo also love to read?" ”
Ginkgo nodded and said, "I like it." ”
"That's great, Qingdi also loves to read, I also love to read, we can often read together when we have time in the future." Duanmu smiled slightly.
"The books I read can't be compared with my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law is a real scholarly family, and my father is a great writer, so my sister-in-law's smile is a bookish atmosphere." Qingdi praised Duanmu's family, and then said to himself: "I'm a lot more worldly, I see some business techniques, herbal medicine illustrated books, I can't compare with my sister-in-law at all." ”
"All you read are useful books, and what I read are all wind and snow, hypocritical, and useless, and Lin Yuan sometimes asks me to learn from you." Duanmu smiled and replied to Qingdi, and asked Yao's again: "Sister Ginkgo, what books do you like to read?" ”
Yao's eyes rolled, what books does she like to read? She had only heard Mr. Jiaoshu read the "Three Character Classic", and vaguely heard a few sentences in the "Analects", she thought about it and replied: "I love to read the way of Confucius and Mencius." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent, and after a while, Chu Yan'er asked in surprise: "I thought that the second sister-in-law likes to read books like business, which is already very strange, because don't girls like to read books about the wind and snow?" Now I actually hear that Sister Yao likes to see the way of Confucius and Mencius, so does Sister Yao also like to read the art of war? ”
"The Art of War, let's look at it a little bit." Yao replied with a smile.
"You are so powerful, you can read the art of war, do you still want to be a female general and fight on the battlefield?" Qingdi made a joke, several people laughed, after laughing, the cook also brought the osmanthus cake, fragrant and steaming, straight to teach people's index fingers.
As soon as the cook put the plate on the table in front of several people, Chu Yan'er said, "Second sister-in-law, thank you for your hospitality, I took it and ate it first." ”
After speaking, she was not afraid of being hot, so she reached out and took one and put it in her mouth, took a bite and spit it out, only calling for a hot mouth.
"No one is robbing you, what are you anxious about." Duanmu couldn't help but make fun of it, and then beckoned Yao and said, "Here in Qingdi, let's not be polite, let's eat quickly." ”
Yao nodded, also took one to her mouth and blew it, and then took a bite, this kind of soft taste was something she had never eaten at all, she said happily: "Second sister-in-law, it's really delicious, I've never eaten it." ”
Qingdi nodded: "Yes, the pastries in the imperial city are relatively coarse, and most of them are for the sake of satisfying the stomach." The pastries in the south are very delicate and taste very good, and the cook in my yard was brought back from Jiangnan by Yao Cen. ”
"I said why did you suddenly invite us to pastries, it turned out to show how much Yao Cen loves you, isn't it?" Duanmu smiled slightly, and joked at Qingdi.
Qingdi hurriedly explained: "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of me, in fact, it is Yao Cen's own greed, so she will come back from Jiangnan to wait for the cook." ”
"But second sister-in-law, do you dare to say that the second brother doesn't care for you?" Chu Yan'er also married into the ranks of making fun of Qingdi, and said: "Second brother doesn't know how many girls he rejected for you, but this is something you don't even know." I once heard my second brother say to my mother, he will never marry any concubine in his life, and it is enough for him to have you alone. ”
As soon as Yao heard this, his chewing action immediately stopped. Chu Yaocen definitely doesn't marry a concubine, so why did she stay in the Chu family? Her eyes darkened, and she glanced at Qingdi, this woman looks lively and generous, is she a jealous woman? A man with such good conditions as Chu Yaocen has to marry at least three or four concubines, right? Could it be that because Qingdi is here, he won't marry?
Qingdi's face was blushing at what the two people said, and she didn't notice the change in Yao's expression, and she was joking with them. A few people laughed for a while, and someone outside came over to preach: "Grandma, the young master doesn't listen to the persuasion of his subordinates, so he has to come here to find you." ”
Duanmu was suddenly a little helpless, and said: "This Lihuan, why are you so ignorant, didn't I tell him to go back at noon?" ”
"Sister-in-law, since Xiao Lihuan is here, let him come in and eat some osmanthus cake with us." Qingdi said busily.
Duanmu sighed and asked someone to come over and bring him in, after Chu Lihuan arrived, he first called Niang, then shouted "Auntie" and "Auntie", and after shouting, he blinked his big round eyes, looked at Yao and asked, "Mother, what am I going to call her?" ”
"This is also an aunt." Duanmu introduced.
Li Huan obediently shouted "Auntie", and then said: "The clothes on my aunt's body are like my grandmother's clothes." ”
A few people were told by him, and then they paid attention, it seems that it really is, the clothes on Yao's body are very similar to those He once wore, and the hairpin on his head also seems familiar.
Yao Shi thought this kid was very cute just now, but I didn't expect him to talk like this, what did he want to express? Do you think that she wears other people's old clothes, which is a sign of undignified? Or did this kid think...... Thought her clothes were stolen?
"Ginkgo's taste is very similar to my mother-in-law's, I seem to have seen her have a dress, which is similar in style and color to yours, but there seem to be slight differences." Duanmu said a word in time, and after hearing this, Yao quickly went down the steps and said, "Is it?" I don't know yet, it's really similar to Madame's? ”
Duanmu and Chu Yan'er both nodded, and Qingdi felt a headache when he heard He, so he didn't show anything.
After saying this, Duanmu took a piece of osmanthus cake for Chu Lihuan to eat, Chu Lihuan took a bite and asked, "Mother, I heard that my aunt gave birth to a little sister, where is my sister?" I want to see my sister. ”
Qingdi smiled and said, "You little clever ghost, you're quite well-informed." My sister is inside, Apricot, you can wait for him to go in and have a look. ”
Apricot answered, and led Chu Lihuan to see Chu Ling, Chu Lihuan couldn't walk when he saw the white and chubby little girl in the cradle, and he opened his mouth to take her out, but when Apricot saw it, he smiled, squatted down and said to him: "Little master, you are still only a three-year-old child, you can't hold it, you will fall your sister." ”
"I want to hug, you see my sister smiling at me, how close she is to me." Chu Lihuan begged Apricot and said, "Hurry up and take your sister out and give me a hug, give me a hug!" ”
Apricot couldn't resist her, so she had to take Chu Ling out and send it to Chu Lihuan's hands, Chu Lihuan's little man struggled to hold a baby, and walked two steps around the cradle, and when he walked behind the cradle, he suddenly threw Chu Ling to the ground, and whispered: "You want to fight with me for family property!" ”
Chu Ling cried out loud with a "wow".
