Chapter 180: Thoughts
Shen Xiangmiao put down the work in her hand, pulled Lu Shi to sit down on the pestle, and said softly: "Mother, I am your daughter, what else can we mother and daughter not say?" You're obviously pretending to be something, so tell me what's going on? ”
Lu hesitated for a long time, and finally raised his eyes to look at Shen Xiangmiao, quickly lowered his eyelids, and said softly: "I don't know how to talk to you about this...... Didn't I mention to you a few days ago that Mrs. Su came to our house that day, in fact, in addition to Mrs. Su, Aunt Ma also came that day. ”
Aunt Ma is a matchmaker, this is something that all the ten villages and eight stores around her know, and she runs back and forth in the villages every day, matchmaking, and even Shen Xiangmiao knows this person.
"What is she here for?" Shen Xiangmiao raised her eyebrows.
"At first, I thought she was here to say kiss to you, but I didn't expect ......" Lu Shi said this, but he paused: "I never thought she was going to kiss me......"
"This Aunt Ma said to her mother, what she said was Shen Laifu?" Shen Xiangmiao asked suddenly.
"Hmm." Lu nodded: "I refused at the time, and Aunt Ma didn't give up and said for a while, and finally saw that I was angry before leaving, and I didn't come to the door again in the past few days, I thought that even if this matter was over, I didn't say it in front of you." ”
"Who knows, Shen Laifu is going to send you a spatula again. Although it is normal for this neighborhood to interact with each other, there are side matters here, and we have to weigh them carefully. Lu Shi said in a low voice.
Shen Xiangmiao understood Lu's concerns very well, and nodded and said, "Mother, I understand your concerns. Since Aunt Ma came to the door to say goodbye, it must be that Grandpa Xianghe and Shen Laifu have this consideration, maybe they will think that their mother does not agree with the family because they are afraid of me, so Shen Laifu will think about coming to me to see if he can ask for my nod first. My mother didn't want them to misunderstand this, and she didn't want them to feel that there was hope at this time, so she thought about simply refusing it completely, and it wouldn't be particularly ugly in the future. ”
"That's what it means." Lu Shi let out a long sigh of relief: "You still understand it." ”
Shen Xiangmiao pursed her lips and laughed, stretched out her head and rubbed on Lu's shoulder: "I am my mother's daughter, so I naturally understand my mother's thoughts." I will return this spatula tomorrow, and I will make this matter clear, so my mother can rest assured. ”
"Hmm." Lu nodded.
Shen Ji's business is still booming, there are people queuing up in the morning, especially the new glutinous rice lotus, which is very popular, plus Shen Xiangmiao has improved it, adding osmanthus candy to it, and there is an extra sweetness of osmanthus flowers, and it tastes more and more delicious.
In addition, lo-mei is also selling a little faster than in the past.
"There are a little more people than usual today." Shen Xiangmiao looked at the people outside and said casually.
"Today is the fourteenth, before the festival, there are many relatives, they are busy entertaining, they must come to buy more lo-mei, cut and put on the plate, not to mention the deliciousness, but also to pay more attention to relatives." Shen Wentao replied with a smile, tilted his head and said: "Speaking of which, my mother also went to my grandmother's house today, and I usually went with Wenwu, but this year we both started to work, and I guess I only went with Qiaohui." ”
"Oh." Shen Xiangmiao lowered her head in response, her eyes flashing slightly.
Speaking of which, since she crossed over, she has inherited almost all the memories of the original owner, but it seems that she has never heard of the matter of going to her grandmother's house to visit relatives, and even the matter of her grandfather's family seems to have never heard the Lu family mention too much.
I only vaguely remember that it seems that others have heard that Lu's maiden family is far away, and the relationship with the family is not harmonious, and when marrying Shen Fucai, the other party even offered a bride price several times higher than usual, but the dowry was nothing, as if selling his daughter. Therefore, after the Lu family got married, he almost broke off contact with his mother's family.
This is a matter between the previous life, and it has little to do with itself, and the Lu family doesn't seem to like to mention this matter very much, so Shen Xiangmiao didn't take it to heart, and quickly pulled her thoughts back and continued to be busy with the work in hand.
The Lu family washed and washed at home, cleaned the yard, and began to make winter clothes for Shen Xiangmiao and Tie Dan.
Although it is early autumn at this time, but after the fifteenth day, the weather is often said to be cold, and if you wait until it is cold to do it, I am afraid it will be too late.
took out last year's winter clothes, roughly compared the appearance and length of previous years, as well as Shen Xiangmiao's height at this time, Lu Shi probably knew how big it should be, so he put down the scissors.
"May I ask if this is Shen Wenzhong's family?" A male voice outside remembered, Lu Shi looked up, and saw a young student in blue clothes standing outside the courtyard, wearing a scholar's scarf on his head, and carrying a bookcase behind him, obviously a scholar.
"Exactly." Lu Shi stood up and nodded, and said with an apologetic face: "It's just that it's just a pity that Wenzhong went to school and was not at home." ”
"I know this, my cousin is Mr. Su, I just came from the academy, and I came to find Miss Shen today." When Su Xiuyuan mentioned the three words Miss Shen, his ears turned red, and he didn't dare to raise his eyelids, and explained in a low voice: "It was Mr. who asked me to come to Miss Shen and said that I wanted to hand over something to Miss Shen, but I don't know if Miss Shen is at home at this time?" ”
Hearing that Su Wenqing asked him to come, Lu's attitude became more and more respectful: "It's really not a coincidence, Xiangmiao went to the town to sell food, I'm afraid she won't come back until the evening, Gongzi handed over the things to me, and I can hand them over to her when I turn around." ”
Not at home......
Su Xiuyuan was suddenly a little disappointed.
After saying goodbye to Su Wenqing and Yao, he did not go directly to the official road, but specially turned around to this Hexi Village to inquire all the way and found Shen Xiangmiao's home, in order to be able to come to see her.
After all, as soon as he went to Qingmei Academy, he didn't talk about the light and shadow for a few months, and he didn't know if he could come back when he Chinese New Year's Eve, so he came here to see Shen Xiangmiao, and by the way......
By the way, send her another thing.
As soon as Su Wenqing thought of this, his cheeks flushed with shame, and he said to the Lu family: "Mr. explained that this thing must be handed over to Miss Shen, as a student, I dare not slack off, I should go to the town to find Miss Shen." ”
In any case, I want to meet Shen Xiangmiao, and I should reveal a little bit of my thoughts to him.
If you simply go to Qingmei Academy, you will pass through the town, which can be regarded as a stop, and you will not delay time.
Therefore, Su Wenqing decided to go to the town immediately.
Lu Shi didn't think too much about it, so he smiled and said, "Xiangmiao sells food in Shen Ji under the full moon building in the town, and it is easy to find it. ”
"Hmm." Su Wenqing nodded and waved at the Lu family: "Auntie, you are busy first, I will leave first." ”
"Be careful on the road." The Lu family sent Su Wenqing out, and when Su Wenqing was far away, he was ready to turn around and go back to the courtyard.
"Brother and sister, brother and sister......"
A shrill voice rang out urgently.
