Chapter 137: Mr. Woman
"Mother didn't sleep today?" There is a subordinate in the family, and her mother basically has nothing to do, so she has gone to bed as soon as it gets dark recently.
"I'm waiting for you!"
Xiao Xia made it like a little madman in the mountains, and went straight to the main house, and when she entered the house, she saw that the sisters in the family were not sleeping, and they were all sitting on the chairs on the side. Her mother was also there, and when she came in, she happened to see her mother snorting, and her eyes were almost open.
There was also a woman, plainly dressed but elegant, with an extraordinary bearing, and a pair of piercing eyes looking at her.
"Mother, I'm back."
"I've got you some food in the kitchen!" Xiao Wang knows how to serve his man well and how to be a good daughter-in-law. How to be a decent lady, she really doesn't understand.
"Madam, first of all, you should not be so indecently angry in front of your daughter, but set the right example. Thirdly, it would be rude for you to introduce the guest to your children first, rather than letting her go to dinner first. The woman said one by one, her body was still flat and steady as she spoke, her hands were stacked on her laps, her jaw was shrunk, and except for her mouth and eyes moving, the whole person seemed to be still.
"Yes, I'm a country woman, I don't understand any of this." Xiao Wang was embarrassed to be said, and he didn't dare to shed tears, and his eyes didn't fight, and he was in good spirits at once.
"You are the second girl in the family! The first thing you do when you enter the house is to go back and wash and change into clean clothes before you can come out to meet guests, which is the most basic rule. In the future, I will be your sister's husband, my surname is Xia, the word Tsing Yi, you can call me Mr. Xia. The woman looked at Shen Xiaoxia and frowned again.
"Your name is Shen Xiaoxia! There is also a Xia character, calling you Xiao Xia, which is disrespectful to the teacher in terms of etiquette. How about you take the word 'Fengzi'? ”
Shen Xiaoxia suddenly had a black line, is she like a madman like this? How dissatisfied was this new teacher with her? Give her such a word directly.
"Shen Fengzi, Shen Maniac? Mr. Xia's name is a bit of a bit? Xiao Xia euphemistically said that he could refuse? Xia Qingyi is a little fairy when she hears it, and she is an old fairy when she is old. Shen Fengzi, when you hear it, it's a neurotic name.
"The second girl will have dinner after going out to wash, let's go!"
That's not what to talk about? Shen Xiaoxia has her own word 'Fengzi'.
"Can you arrange a place for Mr. Xia, and you can prepare all the accessories?"
"It's all ready, you can go quickly! Mr. Xia, let's go and rest too! "The first time Xiao Wang's teased someone, she really couldn't stand it herself, she couldn't stand it anymore, she had to learn to put on the shelf of her wife, whether she came to be a husband for her daughter or to be a husband for her?
Before Xiao Xia left, Mr. Xia gave Xiao Xia a letter of recommendation, and when he returned to the house, he saw that the ghost was gone, and it took a lot of effort to invite this Mr. Xia. If you want to talk about the origin of this Mr. Xia, it is amazing that she once served as a nurturing daughter for the princess in the palace, she herself was the concubine of the Xia family in Shangjing, Zhengzhou, and was once one of the best ladies in Beijing. And the Xia family is a scholarly family for generations, but unfortunately later the family fell into the middle of the road, and she died her husband, so she entered the imperial city as a female official. It's a pity that she offended a favored princess in the imperial city later, was demoted to a commoner, and finally came here after several setbacks.
After reading it, Xiao Xia was very satisfied with this Mr. Xia, a woman who had mixed in the aristocratic circle in Shangjing was definitely not a simple person, and she was lacking such a talent around her.
Sure enough, Mr. Xia did not disappoint Shen Xiaoxia, for Shen Xiaoxia's martial arts practice, Mr. Xia not only agreed but also appreciated it very much, saying that women should have the ability to defend themselves.
Xiao Xia liked this Mr. Xia even more when he heard it.
Because Xiao Xia has to practice martial arts on a single day, Mr. Xia will arrange Xiao Chun and Xiao Qiu's classes on a single day, and arrange Xiao Xia's classes on both days, and Xiao Xia has almost lived a hellish life since then.
"Second girl, the posture of walking is wrong, walk again."
"Second girl, the sitting posture is wrong, pay attention to your legs, don't shake."
"Second girl, you should also learn embroidery, this is the most basic skill of a woman, there must be an embroidery that can show your hands."
Xiao Xia rolled her eyes, women are the most bitter at all times, helpless!
"Second girl, don't roll your eyes at will."
Xiao Xia wanted to roll her eyes again, but instantly stopped her movements and nodded yes.
…………
On this day, Mr. Xia announced a good news, Xiaoqiu is very sensitive to music theory, and plans to teach Xiaoqiu to play the kite, which is a good thing, Xiao Wang sighed while wiping his tears. Recently, even Xiao Wang knows how to use a handkerchief to wipe his tears, and he has raised his orchid fingers, which is much more elegant. As long as it is in Mr. Xia's eyes, she will preach all those who do not conform to the rules.
"Mother, don't worry! I'll ask someone to see if I can find a good kite. ”
Mr. Xia looked at the three sisters, and wanted to say that she agreed to come here to accept female students, in line with the world to seek a comfortable living environment, how much talent can a girl in a mountain village have. But she was amazed after seeing Shen Xiaochun's embroidery, although it is still incomparable with the ladies in Beijing, but it has greatly surprised her, as long as she points out carefully, after two years, her embroidery is in the hands of the lady woman in Beijing, and it is not inferior.
This youngest girl is only five years old, innocent and romantic, she rarely sees such an innocent and pleasing child, probably due to the influence of the living environment, as long as the baby who has learned to speak in Shangjing, she will play tricks, otherwise how to survive in a big family. The talent is also good, if you teach it well, you may also be a dragon and phoenix among people in the future.
What surprised her the most was the second girl, learning to read and read, just a little bit of it, never forgetting, and diligent, she had never seen such a good seedling, even if it was placed in Shangjing, those self-righteous geniuses should be ashamed of themselves.
If Xiao Xia knew that Mr. Xia's evaluation of her was so high, she would be ashamed to bury her face in the ground, she had any unforgettable skills, but she had learned it in her previous life, and now she is just reviewing it.
The three sisters of the Shen family have been taught by a good teacher, and they have made progress every day, and Xiao Wang's family is happy to see it. What made her even happier was the grain in a yard, the autumn harvest was almost over, and the yard of Shen Zhong's house, whether it was the front yard or the back yard, was full of grain.
One acre of paddy field here can produce six stone of white rice, and half a stone of official grain is handed over per mu, in addition to half of the official grain paid to Fengyun Villa, there are still one hundred and twenty-five stone of white rice left at home. The yield of rice here is still low, and one stone is equivalent to a hundred catties in modern times. In the end, the fifty acres of rice left Shen Zhong with 12,500 catties of white rice. White rice here is a precious thing, and one pound is worth 12 wen. And coarse grains and the like are only five or six cents a catty.
Before the grain could be put into his warehouse, Old Man Shen came back with Shen Cai.
