Chapter XVI: Reminders
On this day, he was flying a kite with Fan Caiqing and Fan Caiqian in the open space outside the back door of Fan's Mansion, and saw a ship of average size coming in the direction of Fan's Mansion from a distance.
Xiao Zhiqiu sighed imperceptibly, thinking that the Xiao family still came to pick her up, and when she went back, she didn't know what moth came out, and after thinking for a while, she put it away, looked up at her kite, and put the line a little higher and farther away.
When everyone saw that her kite flew so far, farther than theirs, Fan Caiqing smiled and said, "Cousin Zhiqiu, if you release the line again, the line will be broken!" If you stay for a while and be blown away by the wind, you won't be able to cry back! After that, he pulled the string, and when he saw that his kite was flying steadily, he was relieved.
Then he smiled again: "This kite, just like a man, you want him to have a chance and earn face for yourself, but you must prevent him from flying too far, you can't control him, and you will be the one who suffers at that time!" It's not that I said, Cousin Zhiqiu will go back to the Xiao family this time, and those individuals of the Wu family will definitely block your marriage! In the past, there was a marriage contract with Liu Shizi, and the Wu family didn't dare to be so blatant, in the end, they had some scruples, but they just found an excuse not to let you attend some banquets, otherwise how could you not even see the face of Liu Shizi for more than ten years? That's not because I'm afraid that you'll fall into the eyes of those people and deliberately won't let you see it! I think, it's better for me to go to Beijing with you, with me, it represents the Fan family, so if the Wu family dares to have any bad intentions, I will go for you! Everyone knows who she is! That's good! Her eyebrows fluttered, imagining that scene, and it was a bit of a feeling of puff up.
Fan Caiqian listened, and quietly turned her mind to look at Xiao Zhiqiu.
Xiao Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Then thank my cousin for protecting me for this thought!" With you, how can anyone dare to bully me in Xiao Mansion! But in this marriage, if the Wu family really has any bad intentions, I will not sit back and let others slaughter it! She thought I was a rabbit, but I wasn't really a rabbit! Besides, the rabbit is in a hurry and bites! “
Zhaori Zhaoyue couldn't help but smile when she saw it, and Zhaori said to Fan Caiqing: "Second girl, please rest assured, our girl is not the kind of girl who doesn't say a word when she is bullied!" Otherwise, over the years, where can I still come to Fan's house every year! What's more, although the old lady said that she delegated power to the Wu family, and only concentrated on eating fasting and chanting Buddha, she still cared about the girl, and she really wanted to make any bad intentions about the girl's marriage, and the old lady would not look at the girl in vain and let the girl be scolded by the Wu family! ”
Zhao Yue also answered: "Then the Wu family treats people as fools, and people are not all fools!" Our girl just doesn't care about everything with her, and she wants to have a clean ear, if she really annoys our girl, and the girl cares, then the Wu family will have to plant a big root! ”
When everyone heard this, everyone laughed, Fan Caiqing couldn't stop laughing and pointed at Zhaoyue and Xiao Zhiqiu: "You two girls, although they are often neither big nor small, but that mouth, even I can't say it!" I see that there are two of them here, but they have posted a door god, if there is really something, I am afraid that the complaint is faster and more accurate than others! ”
Everyone laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt! Only Fan Caiqian looked at them, smiling or smiling, not knowing what to think.
The people of the Xiao Mansion got off the boat, and the seer was that these girls were all smiling, and the mother-in-law sent by the Wu family to pick up was the Wu family's marry, surnamed Wei, who took care of some girls and trivial matters in the Wu family courtyard on weekdays, although it was not reused, but it was also Wu's henchman.
At this time, when Mrs. Wei saw Xiao Zhiqiu and the two girls from Fan's Mansion talking and laughing so without manners, she sneered a little in her heart, thinking that she could still laugh when Xiao Zhiqiu returned to the mansion? Now that she doesn't have the marriage contract with Liu Shizi, what else can she be proud of? Wu wanted to pinch her with one finger, but he didn't pinch her!
Although I thought so in my heart, I just got closer, but I still blessed them first, and said to them with a smile: "I've seen the girl, the two cousins!" Girls have always been good? ”
Fan Caiqing and Fan Caiqian didn't seem to hear it, they still flew their kites and ignored her.
Xiao Zhiqiu smiled, saw her salute, and gave the kite in his hand to Zhao Ri to hold, and said with a smile: "Mother Wei is so polite!" I'm fine, I don't know if everyone in the house is okay? ”
Wei Pozi got up, and saw that she accepted a gift from herself without blinking her eyes and heartbeat, and she was a little unhappy in her heart, thinking about those girls from Xiao Mansion, who saw her and said nothing good, looking forward to saying two more good words for them in front of the Wu family, she was good, she used to have a marriage contract with Liu Shizi, and she could still stand her a gift, but now that the marriage has been withdrawn, what else does she have to rely on, and she even puts on a big look!
Even so, he didn't dare to go too far, so he said with a smile: "Everyone in the house is fine, but Mrs. caught a cold a few days ago and coughed for half a month, so she missed the day to pick up the girl!" Isn't this just better, so I was in a hurry to let the old woman pick it up, for fear that the girl would be misunderstood by Liu Shizi and divorced, thinking that Mrs. didn't love the girl anymore, the girl was cranky, if it was misunderstood, wouldn't Mrs. be wronged? So don't worry, girl! Besides, the girl likes to live in a foreign house, so it's good to let the girl relax more! ”
Xiao Zhiqiu couldn't help but smile when she heard this, these words not only ridiculed her for being divorced by Liu Shizi, but also deliberately reminded her that this time is different from the past, without the protection of the marriage contract with Liu Shizi, she also has to see her situation clearly, but in this situation, can't she even stand the gift of a mother-in-law? I can't help but feel ridiculous.
"Is my mother's illness cured? What did the doctors say? Xiao Zhiqiu smiled, still not losing etiquette.
Wei Pozi also did superficial work to deal with it: "It's almost good, I only think about the girl, and I can't help but worry a little." Fortunately, the sons and girls in the house are very filial, and they ask for medicine in front of them, so it's not hard! It's just that the three girls have lost weight, and the lady is very distressed, saying that the three girls are really filial and stupid, and there is no one to serve in front of them, so why bother to come in person? But the three girls are really filial, the lady is not sick, she can't feel at ease for a moment, you say that the three girls are not filial piety? In the end, it came out of his own belly, how can he not hurt his mother? After that, he looked at Xiao Zhiqiu and smiled strangely and deeply.
Xiao Zhiqiu also laughed more and more, and said, "Yes, my mother is sick, how can I be a child?" ”
When Mrs. Wei heard this, she looked at her with a smile and a silent voice, wanting to hear what she said, thinking that she should know her situation clearly at this time, and didn't rush to say a few good words to slap herself, her face couldn't help but show a look of patience to listen to her, and when she finished speaking, see how she sent her a few words, and dared to put up a fight in front of herself?
Xiao Zhiqiu looked at her expression, pursed his lips and smiled, and said as he walked: "Although I was young that year, I still remember some of the scene when my mother was sick. I was going to stay with my mother in the room, but she was afraid that I would be too sick and that I would be watched, and she would not allow me to come and see her every day. One time I went to see her secretly. The third sister felt curious and went with me, I saw my mother's pale and thin look, peeked and didn't dare to cry at the time, afraid that my mother knew and worried, but the third sister was so frightened that she screamed and ran out without looking back, my mother heard the sound, opened her eyes and saw that it was me, she was angry and distressed, and she held me in her arms, and I was also reluctant to give up my mother! She said, paused, and looked at Wei Pozi without saying anything.
Wei Pozi was also a little embarrassed when she heard her talk about this, seeing that she didn't say anything, I don't know why she stopped here, she wanted to ask but didn't ask, and her expression hung up.
Xiao Zhiqiu sighed: "At that time, the two of us hugged our heads and cried, crying so that the hearts of everyone around us were sour!" But later, my mother was gone! I'm also seriously ill! ”
Wei Pozi's expression was another pause, she knew these things, looking at Xiao Zhiqiu's expression, she couldn't help but feel a little eager to speak, as if she just remembered that Xiao Zhiqiu was the serious daughter! And the third girl was originally a concubine, because the Wu family rose from the position of aunt.
Xiao Zhiqiu didn't care about her expression, and continued: "Fortunately, my grandmother sent someone to pick me up here to relax, and asked a famous doctor to treat me, otherwise how can I live safely until now?" The third sister has grown up now and has become sensible, and she is no longer scared to scream and turn around and run away, otherwise, wouldn't her mother be cold? ”
Wei Pozi's face is pale! looked at Xiao Zhiqiu and didn't speak for a long time.
And Zhaori and Zhaoyue almost didn't laugh out loud when they heard it!
