Chapter 14 Old Lady Zhang Comes to the Door
Hu Yangyao became Hu Dajing's master in a daze, and when he came back to his senses, Hu Dajing's figure was long gone.
The third aunt came in with a tray and saw Hu Yangyao sitting in front of the stone table: "My son, why are you still sitting here?" Come in and eat. ”
Hu Yangyao said: "Why didn't my aunt go to ask for peace?" ”
The rules of the Hu family, before breakfast, all the aunts have to go to the main hall to ask for peace, saying that it is to ask for peace, in fact, it is to listen to Daddy Hu's boast of the strange things when he was young and wandering outside, and it is not excluded that the story is exaggerated.
It's okay for Daddy Hu's stories to coax and coax the aunts who didn't enter the door, but once they enter the door, his story becomes the most hated thing for the aunts.
"Because of your body, my mother has made me not have to go to say hello for this time."
Hu Yangyao snorted and followed the third aunt into the house.
Hu Dajing hugged Ah Jin all the way to the main hall.
Along the way, I heard all kinds of whispering voices.
"Alas, you see Sanniang is still holding this chicken,"
"Have you heard? It is said that Sanniang was evil. ”
"What nonsense?"
"Really, she was so badly injured that day, it's only been just half a month, and she can come and go freely, isn't it evil?"
“……”
Everywhere he went, there were doubtful voices, and Hu Dajing just didn't hear them.
Father Hu and the eldest lady sat on the main seat in the main hall, and the aunts sat on both sides, listening to the long speeches, listless.
The second aunt patted the sleepy fourth aunt: "Ah Qiu, Ah Qiu." ”
The fourth aunt was awake, wiped her mouth, and looked at Father Hu and the eldest lady.
Daddy Hu, who should have been talking, stopped and looked out of the courtyard in surprise.
In the first light of the morning, a girl with a double bun came with a rooster looking around, her amber eyes shining like thin cicada wings, so confident that people could ignore the faint dark green marks on her face.
Hu Dajing saluted: "Daddy is fine, and the housemother is fine." ”
Father Hu was flattered, and he took the initiative to ask for peace for his daughter when he only asked for silver, which was very uncomfortable.
The eldest lady has no emotion, and the whole person is always faint.
Hu Dajing saluted the aunts again, except for the eldest aunt, the other two aunts also had ghostly expressions.
Father Hu recognized the chicken, frowned, and said, "What are you holding this beast for?" ”
"It's not a brute, it's called Ah Jin." Hu Dajing said, "I brought it today to introduce it to you." ”
These words stirred up waves, and the aunts who wanted to fall asleep swept away their sleepiness and looked at her as if they were looking at fools.
Hu Dajing just didn't see everyone's reaction, because Ah Jin was just a small dish before the meal, and what kind of waves would be caused by what he said next, Hu Dajing had already thought of it.
"Then why did you come today?" The eldest lady asked.
In fact, she knows it.
"I'm here to tell the mistress about my choice in the matter of the destruction of Tianfangyuan."
"And what choice did you make?"
Hu Dajing smiled slightly: "Of course it's money." ”
Everyone expected this result, but there was no unexpected reaction, if Hu Dajing chose to be on the board, it would be a strange thing.
Hu Dajing is not a person who is willing to endure hardships and be wronged, let alone a person who is willing to suffer, if someone punches her, she will return it with ten punches, and it will also disturb your family.
"Yes, Sanniang has always been a cheerful, when will this silver be delivered?" The eldest lady knew that Hu Dajing didn't have that much money.
"The matter of silver, the mistress does not need to worry, but you also have to promise me one thing."
"What's the matter?" The eldest lady said, "As long as it is reasonable, I will agree." ”
Hu Dajing looked at the eldest lady with a smile, she had already revealed to Hu Yufei that she was going to study at Mr. Feihua's school, the eldest lady should know about this, why didn't she seem to know anything?
Didn't Hu Yufei say it?
Along the way, everyone only discussed whether she had fallen into evil? There is nothing else.
"I'm going to study under Mr. Feihua."
Hu Dajing's tone was firm.
Sure enough, when she heard this, the eldest aunt, who had been expressionless, was the first to laugh, and then everyone else was also amused by this sentence, and the whole house laughed for a while.
The eldest lady didn't laugh, and Hu Dajing didn't laugh.
The eldest lady had already learned about Hu Dajing's idea from Hu Yufei's mouth, and the reason why she didn't smile was because she wanted to leave her smile after Hu Dajing was turned away, which was the smile of the final victory.
It's too early to laugh.
"Sanniang, do you know that it is not that you are going to study under Mr. Feihua, but that Mr. Feihua chose you to study under her."
Daddy Hu wiped the tears from his laughter and told Hu Dajing that choosing and being chosen are different.
"It was I who chose her, not her who chose me."
Looking at his stubborn daughter, Daddy Hu shook his head: "You are so self-conscious." ”
Father Hu originally wanted to secretly pay Hu Dajing this money, no matter what, it was his daughter.
But his daughter still looks the same as at the beginning, unrepentant, and said such words in front of everyone that there is no way out, and Daddy Hu decided to stand by and watch.
Hu Dajing must endure some hardship to understand the truth that he does not know the high cost of firewood, rice, oil and salt.
"You mean, after passing Mr. Feihua's exam, you will get this money?"
Hu Dajing nodded and said honestly: "I don't have any money now, and if I pass the entrance exam, I will get an admission bonus of five hundred taels." ”
Brag unblushingly.
At this moment, Steward Xue trotted all the way and hurriedly announced: "Master Mother, Ah Lang, Zhang Gong personally came to visit. ”
Daddy Hu stood up: "Please come in quickly." ”
The eldest lady was puzzled: "Isn't Zhang Gong sick?" Why did this time come? ”
glanced at Hu Dajing.
Since Hu Dajing's accident, the Zhang family has not sent anyone to visit, and there have been speculations inside and outside the city, saying that the Zhang family has the intention of retiring from the marriage, and later it was rumored that the old lady Zhang was seriously ill, and the Zhang family really couldn't draw manpower.
Daddy Hu didn't send anyone to Zhang's Mansion to condole, if you don't come, I won't go.
In the main courtyard, an old man with a dragon head cane, tall and thin, but so thin that he was vulnerable.
There were many servants behind him, and he would rather tremble and walk slowly than let the people behind him help him, and judging from his dark complexion, he was already sick.
Only those eyes were bright, which were not the eyes that a seriously ill patient should have, and they formed a contrast with his sick and weak body.
Hu Dajing has seen many seriously ill people, their eyes are dull, without brilliance, like a pool of stagnant water, and look at them, as if they will be sucked into the dark vortex in their eyes at any moment.
Misfortune can be contagious through the eyes.
