654, lamp flowers
Not long after Zheng Yue's two families retired, a small sedan chair was carried out from the corner door of Zheng's house in a low-key manner, and since then there has been one less person in Zheng's house, and Zheng Wanli Xu Shu, who was withdrawn, has not handed her over for a long time.
On a snowy morning, Mrs. Zheng Si's biological sons, Young Master Zheng Sixth and Young Master Zheng Qi, were finally coming back, and it was the scholar who came back in advance to report the letter, saying that they would arrive in the evening!
Mrs. Zheng Si is very happy, her son is studying outside all year round, and he can see each other for a month or two during the Chinese New Year, and he has not handed over two sons for ten months, and he naturally feels happy when he hears that his son is coming back.
Compared with Mrs. Zheng's excitement, Grandma Zheng was more excited, and without waiting for the old lady's instructions, she offered to hold a reception banquet for the two sons of the fourth room, seeing that Grandma Zheng was so enthusiastic, the old lady was not easy to brush her mind, so she agreed, but the old lady's promise fell in the eyes of Grandma Zheng There was a little bit of the old lady's agreement with her plan, so she felt more and more excited, and she was busy with the reception banquet, and the degree of intimacy and meticulousness made Mrs. Zheng Si, the mother-in-law, feel ashamed.
It's okay for Young Master Zheng Qi, but Young Master Zheng Sixth is four years older than Zheng Wanyi, obviously he should know that Xu Shu is actually a fake Miss Zheng Jiu, and when he saw his sister who suddenly appeared, he must be suspicious of Xu Shu's identity and purpose, just like the original Zheng Si Master, so Xu Shu was reluctant to go to the reception banquet, so as not to sweep everyone's interest, it happened that she was still injured, so she lied in front of Mrs. Zheng Si and said that she was afraid of the cold and would not go to the reception banquet.
Mrs. Zheng saw through Xu Shu's evasion, thinking that she was also inconsiderate about this matter, and did not explain the two sons to her side earlier, so that Xu Shu had the worries she has now, if she had dealt with it well earlier, Xu Shu would not have such concerns, so she agreed to Xu Shu and agreed to her request not to go to the banquet.
Afraid that the old lady would blame Xu Shu for being ignorant, she went to the old lady to explain in person, and the old lady was not easy to blame because of Xu Shu's injury, and it was Mrs. Zheng Si who spoke in person, and she had no opinion on being a mother, and she couldn't offend anyone, so she didn't say much, and asked people to send Xu Shu a pair of noodles to the Begonia Pavilion before the banquet.
The thrush personally took over this errand and led the mother-in-law and maid to the Begonia Pavilion to deliver food, when did the thrush stammered so much to please which master in the house? From the attitude of the thrush, everyone also tasted the attitude of the old lady towards Xu Shu, it is obvious that he is a master who cannot be offended, and everyone envies and envy him.
Since the wound healed, Xu Shu moved back to the Begonia Pavilion, because of the cold weather, he moved to the warm pavilion to live, the warm pavilion burned the earth dragon, the whole room was very warm, Xu Shu finally did not have to wrap himself like a zongzi, only wearing a thin regular clothes lying on the desk to read, afraid of hurting his eyes, reading is not engrossed, hearing the sound of snowflakes falling on the branches in the yard, I can't help but reach out and push the window open a little gap to see.
Just pushed open a thin slit, and a cold wind came in, and Xu Shu, who was blown by the cold wind, hurriedly let go of the window and let go of the heat, "It's so cold outside!" ”
Yinzhi smiled, "It seems to be a little colder this winter, and the earth dragons haven't burned up at this time in previous years!" ”
"Mother is also for me!" Xu Shu smiled lightly, "The cost of the earth dragon is not out of the public, and the expenses of several taels of silver on this day are all paid by my mother in private!" ”
"Madame really hurts Miss, the weather is cold today, I'm afraid that Miss will be frozen, so I am reluctant to go to the banquet and freeze!"
Xu Shu smiled, Mrs. Zheng Si loved her, she knows, now she is a lot more squeamish than in the past, what kind of tea in the Xu family used to drink, if in addition to the big red robe and other precious tea, other teas are all unpalatable, and this dragon, when in the Xu family can have a brazier to keep warm, it is already satisfied, where do you dare Xiao to think of anything else, don't say no, even if there is, it will not be her turn, now her squeamishness comes from Mrs. Zheng Si's partiality, if no one hurts, where can she be squeamish?
Seeing Yuzhu coming in from outside, with unmelted snowflakes on the tips of her hair, Xu Shu couldn't help asking, "Is there a lot of snow outside?" ”
Yuzhu replied while taking off her cloak, "It was big earlier, but now it's much smaller, but there is also thick snow in the garden, and you can build a snowman when you get up tomorrow morning!" If it weren't for the late weather today, the slave would have wanted to go now! ”
Yinzhi said with a smile, "This big night, don't pile up a four-like out, or wait for tomorrow to lead the little girl under the head during the day, and it will be lively!" ”
Xu Shu nodded approvingly, "Don't go out on such a cold day, if you are seriously frostbitten, you should also go and rest early!" I'll read the book and go to sleep by myself, so I don't need you to serve me! ”
"Yes! Slaves make your bed first! ”
"Hmmm! By the way, I have prepared a meeting gift for the sixth and seventh brothers, take them to Puyuxuan when you leave, and let my mother help me transfer them! ”
"Yes!" Yinzhi and Yuzhu agreed, made the bed and closed the door and went out!
"Poof!" The candle in front of him suddenly burst out with a light flower, Xu Shu took the scissors to cut it, but before the scissors got closer, the candle flame suddenly flickered.
The doors and windows are closed in this room, where is the wind? If there is no wind, why does the candle flame flicker?
Xu Shu's hand paused, and after a while, he calmly cut the lamp, but when he withdrew his hand, he did not put down the scissors, but sleeved the scissors into his sleeve.
The eyes are fixed on the book, but the heart is attentive to the movements around it.
The candle flame suddenly flickered again, Xu Shu's hand holding the scissors couldn't help but tighten again, and suddenly a figure came from behind, and Xu Shu stabbed it with a pair of scissors with his backhand.
"Ouch!" The people who came behind him obviously didn't expect Xu Shu to make a sudden move, so he was so frightened that he retreated, but he hit the chair behind him and tripped to the ground, and the chair was knocked away by him, hitting the pillar and making a loud noise.
This voice is very familiar! Xu Shu took back the scissors and turned her head to look, "Second son Fu?" ”
Fu Junqian got up from the ground in embarrassment, rubbed his buttocks and said, "It's me!" It's me! You put away the scissors! ”
Xu Shu put the scissors back on the table in front of him, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the window, Xu Shu made a silent gesture to Fu Junqian, and stopped at the door when he heard the footsteps outside.
"Miss, what's wrong?" It was Yuzhu's voice.
Xu Shu replied slowly, "It's okay, I knocked down a stool, you go back to sleep, and clean up tomorrow!" ”
Yuzhu went back with the lantern.
Yuzhu walked away, Xu Shucai frowned and looked at Fu Junqian, "In the middle of the night, which one did Fu Ergongzi sing in the women's boudoir at night?" ”
