Chapter 117: Thin Life
"Let's go, don't look at it. If there's anything, I'll talk about it when I go back. ”
Lou Yi obviously also showed the situation here, tightened his face, patted Jiang Tian on the shoulder, and then lifted the curtain with one hand, and helped Xiaoru into the carriage with the other hand, and then he also ran up, and then lifted Xiao Fu'er up, covering the car curtain and door curtain tightly, blocking Xiao Ru and Fu'er's view of looking outside.
Jiang Tian sighed, after all, he didn't want to embarrass his younger brother, gritted his teeth, waved his whip, and the carriage moved forward steadily, but he turned his head and saw his younger brother who had just been named on the gold list, and was really high-spirited, actually blushing, lowering his head, and whispering softly to the woman in the car through a layer of tulle. I couldn't help but feel nervous.
Xiaoru frowned, glanced at Lou Yi, and said with a wry smile: "Su Mei's child and I are a little disagreeable, but she is really good, after the Jiang brothers lost their father, life was very difficult, the two brothers are big men, Jiang Tian is rude, Jiang Yu is a weak scholar, how can he live a serious life, there is not much way to make money, just Jiang Tian hunts to earn money, barely enough for them to eat and drink, want to see a doctor, there is no spare money at all...... When I didn't settle in Wuchang, Su Mei helped me out, and I posted money to Jiang Yu to see a doctor, and I did laundry and cooking, and in the most difficult period, the Su family's father and daughter didn't think about getting married......"
"Of course, I admit that Su Mei is a bit childish, and she has no mother, she doesn't know the rules very well, and besides, she is still young after all. It's easy to be seduced, and she has a little longing for the handsome, golden and young son, but Su Mei's character is still trustworthy, that child is real, and she is also refreshing, even if she really has some ideas in her heart, she will not ignore her marriage contract......"
As she spoke, Xiao Ru unconsciously quieted down, hooked the corners of her mouth, and shook her head with a wry smile, "That's it...... Others can't control their own creations", this is not the first time she has said this kind ......of thing, but this kind of thing is not something she can control.
Lou Yi'an quietly listened to his mother's slightly irritable chatter, in fact, Jiang Yu is now a Jinshi, with an identity and status, and he no longer gives Fu'er a husband. No matter from which point of view, he has nothing to do with the Lou family, even if he wants to withdraw from the marriage, it is also a private matter of others, whether it is Lou Yi or Xiaoru, it is said that he should not care, at this point, Xiaoru knows it in his heart, but even if he understands, it is inevitable that he will be a little unhappy.
Fortunately, Xiaoru was open-minded and thought about it slightly, so she put Jiang Yu Sumei aside, hugged Fu'er, patted her back for a while, and coaxed the child to rest.
Jiang Tian's car was not fast, the little donkey followed the car steadily, trotting, looking very relaxed, obviously, the endurance and degree of this donkey are very good, the ancients often praised the horse, this donkey, it is estimated that there is also a little potential to become a thousand miles of donkey. But it was a little difficult for the foal to keep up with the car, it was still small, and although it was empty, it didn't run for a while, and fine beads of sweat began to appear on its snow-white hair. The degree of Jiang Tian's progress had to drop again and again, and when he finally returned home, the sky was already dark.
"Don't go to your brother yet, wait until my family husband finds out...... Even when you say it, don't be too stiff, and be careful not to hurt your brother's harmony. ”
Xiao Ru saw that Jiang Tian's face was ugly, and Lou Yi glanced at each other, and hurriedly persuaded him, Jiang Tian is an honest man, he is very respectful and grateful to his own owner, and he is more obedient, although he is unwilling, but since Xiao Ru opened his mouth, he still honestly agreed.
So, for a few days, Lou Yi didn't care if Jiang Yu would say that he was nosy, and launched a very detailed investigation of that kid, of course, Xiaoru was not idle, and the degree of getting detailed information was even much faster than Lou Yi.
It turned out that she was still blind, and she was sitting in the car at the time. is not a young lady who has not left the cabinet, but a little widow who is very famous even in the capital.
This widow's maiden name is Wen, and her name is Wenyue, and before she left the cabinet, she didn't have any big fame, she was an honest businessman, and she didn't go out of the door, but because of the first day she got married, her husband Wang Yu accidentally fell into the river. When she was fished up, she was out of breath, and she had no breath at her, and her husband died just after passing the door, and it was inevitable that she would be scolded for a few words, and her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were also grief-stricken, and said a few mean words, in fact, this is normal, who just married a daughter-in-law happily, and lost her son the next day, can you not be sad and painful, the old lady did not beat her daughter-in-law to death, and she is already sensible.
This is not a big deal, even if the rumors spread for a while, they will always be replaced by new rumors, the Great Xia Dynasty encourages widows to remarry, if the widow is willing to remarry, and even get the government's commendation, so in the second half of her life, this young lady of the Wen family still has the hope of marrying and having children and living a happy life, but a well-known fortune teller in the capital has completely broken this hope.
That master is very famous, has a psychic white-waisted bird, has the reputation of being a half-fairy, he actually calculated that Miss Wen is a natural Kefukezi's life, this is good, her mother-in-law will not let her stay anymore, her mother's family has a powerful brother and sister-in-law, and she can't go back, fortunately, her mother loves her daughter and gives a lot of private money, so Miss Wen can barely cope with it by opening a small teahouse.
But. After all, there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and there are always many second-rate people who come to her for trouble, but Wenyue is a young lady from everyone, and she must be at a loss to deal with such a thing.
Jiang Yu once went out to drink tea, and inadvertently walked to Wenyue's teahouse, and bumped into it, he was already a person at that time, generally, just teasing a woman, doing some petty theft and second-rate people, how dare he be presumptuous in front of a lifting man, naturally, Jiang Yu became a hero who saved beauty, knowing that Wenyue was not good for a woman, Jiang Yu often came over to sit, and it was also regarded as blocking trouble for Wenyue, and the two gradually intersected, became familiar, I don't know how, they got along for a few days, Jiang Yu actually fell in love with Wen Yue like this......
Xiaoru listened to the words of these little animals, and couldn't help but feel a little pity and admiration for Miss Wenyue, who was originally a little disgusted, that miss was not depressed, nor immersed in her own tragedy and couldn't extricate herself, she didn't complain, but took care of her life in an orderly manner, and didn't let herself wash her face with tears all day long, withering and haggard, it can be seen that she is a woman who is very good at living, Jiang Yu will like her, it is not so incredible.
However, as far as the current situation is concerned, Jiang Yu is still hot, Wen Yue has already said that he is an ominous person, he does not want to harm others, and he can't get married, of course Xiaoru knows that these are nonsense, the so-called spirit bird fortune telling is very simple.
As long as a little training has been done, the bird can be very obedient in accordance with the fortune teller's ideas to make moves, but the fortune teller prepares some of the sweet and sour vinegar that this bird likes, and when the fortune teller says the birthday, the fortune teller will quickly smear the sweet and sour vinegar on the back of the selected card, and the cards are ambiguous words, how to say it then, and it is not by the fortune teller waving......
These methods are far worse than modern people, Xiaoru sighed, however, this kind of thing, the ancient people were very taboo, if you want to ruin a certain girl, directly ask a few fortune tellers to spread the rumors that her eight characters are not good, Kefu Ke Zike's parents, her life, it is estimated that it will be miserable, of course, under normal circumstances, as long as it is not a deep hatred, no one in this era will joke about this kind of thing.
Xiaoru at this time, she doesn't want to reach out to take care of this trouble, if Jiang Yu really doesn't like Su Mei, even if he is forced to marry Su Mei, he will not be happy in the future, as long as Wen Yue does not deliberately hook up with Jiang Yu, and there is no other messy attempt, Xiaoru plans to throw away her hand and ignore it.
However, Xiaoru ignored it, but Lou Yi was very concerned because of his daughter-in-law, and within two days, he investigated the matter clearly and told Jiang Tian to listen.
On this day, the wind and the sun are beautiful, Xiaoru holds the child on the balcony to bask in the sun, this little baby can actually turn over, and especially likes to lie in the crib, does not like to lie down, he lies on the bed, the little head is raised, always smiling, even if he is hungry, urinating, it is also very uncomfortable to hum a few times, as long as he is cleaned, fed his stomach, immediately no longer crying, mother-in-law said that his golden grandson is much better than his son, when he used to take Lou Yi, often night after night, restless......
Every time Xiaoru listened to her mother-in-law tell Lou Yi about the interesting things and naughty things when she was a child, she wore a small flower skirt, combed a dozen pigtails to pretend to be a girl, went up the tree to steal the neighbor's big red dates, and was bitten by someone's dog, and fell in love with eating dog meat hot pot, fortunately it was not upgraded to the point of hitting when she saw a dog, and she also went to the chicken coop to touch the eggs, and was chased by the old hen who was holding the nest all over the yard. This kid has not been a worry-free person since he was a child, I used to hear the old man say that he bothered Lou Yi more than Ding Feng, Xiaoru didn't believe it much, but after listening to this, he believed it a little.
Not far from the balcony where Xiao Ru was, Lou Yi was pulling Jiang Tian to talk in the small octagonal pavilion, although they were far away, what they said still entered Xiao Ru's ears through the little sparrow that fell on the balcony.
