With Xu Huai'an joining, the atmosphere suddenly became lively, although Xu Xianling reprimanded him with his mouth, but it could be seen that he loved this son very much, and An Qingming was envious.

At that time, her father was also a strict father like Xu County, although he was strict, but his love for her was beyond words, but it was a pity...... Before she could fulfill her filial piety, her father left her first.

After a while, Mrs. Xu came over, and the maid behind her was carrying a tray with a few plates of delicate snacks on it, and the delicate dumplings were very cute.

Mrs. Xu first said hello, and then beckoned Changyi to put the dim sum for a few people: "I made a few dim sums when I had nothing to do, and I don't know if it suits my taste." ”

She said this to An Qingming, An Qingming added a piece of fine taste to the face, I have to admit that Mrs. Xu still has a very good set of dim sum, dim sum melts in the mouth, sweet but not greasy, with a vanilla flavor, which is a taste that An Qingming has never tasted.

An Qingming praised sincerely: "Madame's good craftsmanship makes people have an endless aftertaste. ”

Xu Huai'an also praised her mother in a timely manner: "Miss An, don't say anything else, in terms of cooking skills, my mother is the only friend in the world, I have tasted the dishes she makes, and I can't put any 'Tianxiang Pavilion' and 'Ruyi Building' in my eyes." ”

He held his true feelings, nodded while speaking, and couldn't wait to hold his heart out to show the sun and the moon, Mrs. Xu was very useful, "giggled" and laughed, glanced at him and said, "Just your mouth is sweet." ”

An Qingming also smiled: "If Xu Gongzi had spoken to me before a cup of tea, I might still have doubts, but I just tasted Madame's dim sum and had to be convinced, Xu Gongzi was right." ”

"Where," said Mrs. Xu, "Miss An also laughed at me with this bastard." ”

Mrs. Xu looked gentle and gentle, but when she looked closely, her eyes were slightly raised, with a bit of sharpness, and she smiled without a trace: "On weekdays, I am idle at home, and I can only make some snacks to pass the time, unlike the eldest girl, who is very busy all day long, but it is also enviable." ”

These words sound a little emotional, and they all have a somewhat tentative tone, which can't be said to be praise or disapproval.

Xu Huai'an glanced at his mother and said with a smile: "How can there be two people in this world who are exactly the same?" There is no second one in the world for the mother's ability, and Miss An is the same. ”

praised both of them back and forth, and it was also capable.

Mrs. Xu took a look

The son, who looked confused, sighed secretly in his heart. It's not that she doesn't like An Qingming, on the contrary, she has a good impression of such a woman who does not lose the courage of a man.

But the premise is that this person cannot be her daughter-in-law.

She knows best about her son, such a woman, he can't hold it down, and in the end, it is her stupid son who suffers.

An Qingming still had a faint smile on her face, looking very gentle and very close, but when she tore through this layer of disguise, there was an iron wall inside that could not be penetrated.

Xu Xianling also laughed a few times, and after chatting for a while, Mrs. Xu suddenly said: "I feel close to the eldest girl as soon as I see it, and I want to talk to the eldest girl, can I?" ”

An Qingming naturally would not refuse.

Saying that, Mrs. Xu invited An Qingming to go to the backyard for a walk: "The backyard has planted flowers and plants, and the mountain spring was brought over in the early years, it is very cool, let's go over and sit?" ”

An Qingming only said that it was all up to his wife.

The two of them were about to go outside.

Xu Huaian suddenly got up and followed: "It's just right, I also feel very hot, let's go sit together." ”

Mrs. Xu turned to look at him, looked up and down, and there was an indescribable surprise in her eyes: "When you get well, you run around?" ”

She didn't know who she was talking about: "You had a serious illness in a good way, didn't the doctor let you have a good baby?" I haven't had time to teach you a lesson. ”

Listening to her mother's words, Xu Huai'an's first reaction was to look at An Qingming's expression, An Qingming turned her head sideways to look at the vase placed on the side, the bottle was crystal clear, and she couldn't see anything special, but she looked very energetic.

"Mother," Xu Huai'an was very helpless, "What's the serious illness, it's just that I got some cool air from the rain at night, and it's all right in a blink of an eye." ”

"Really?" Mrs. Xu said with a smile: "I don't see you dyed cold when it rains on weekdays, and it didn't rain much the night before." ”

Hearing this, Xu Huai'an and An Qingming were a little embarrassed, Mrs. Xu must have known something, and this was specially said for An Qingming.

However, in this way, An Qingming confirmed that Xu Huai'an's illness was inseparable from herself, and the guilt in her heart inevitably grew.

"Where are they?" Xu Huai'an waved his hand, "It's a coincidence, my mother is called caring and messing up." ”

Mrs. Xu doesn't want to care, if it is someone else's life, she will only care about it, isn't this the meat that fell from her body?

Mrs. Xu glanced at him, took An Qingming's hand affectionately and walked out, seeing that Xu Huai'an was about to follow again, Mrs. Xu said, "What's the matter?" We women say two thoughtful words to each other, and you have to listen to them without shame? ”

Xu Huai'an: "......" is not with it, not with it, he stood in place and laughed.

"I'm not a tigress, can I still eat the big girl?" She kept laughing when she said this, and An Qingming had no choice but to laugh along.

"Where is the beauty of the lady?"

"You girl, pick a nice one to coax me."

With that, the two of them went to the backyard with a smile and looked behind them, like a pair of extremely affectionate mother and daughter.

Xu Huai'an has one head and two big, and said in his heart that if An Qingming marries in, it would be great if the two of them could be so affectionate.

It's a pity that there is not a single stroke of the eight characters, An Qingming should not be him, and his mother has such an attitude.

"What do you think?" Xu Xianling didn't know when he walked down and stood behind him, and he also looked out with his line of sight, and could see An Qingming talking to Mrs. Xu with her head sideways, and Mrs. Xu's shoulders trembled, as if she was laughing.

"Mother, kiss her......" Xu Huaian frowned, and didn't say the words in his stomach.

Xu Xian Ling continued: "Your mother likes Miss An very much." ”

Xu Huaian glanced back at his father, and Xu Xianling was inexplicably looked at by him.

Xu Xianling continued: "You don't get married, your mother is bored to be alone, and there is no one to talk to her, she likes Miss An so much, but she can let Miss An often come to the house to sit." ”

Hearing this, Xu Huaian turned his head to stare at his father again, and this time his eyes lit up: "!! ”

Xu Xianling became more and more inexplicable: "You bastard boy, what are you looking at?" ”

"Dad," Xu Huaian praised sincerely: "I can be considered to know why you are the official of your parents, you are my father!" ”

Xu Xian Ling slapped him on the back of the head: "What nonsense?!" ”

Could it be that when is he not his own father?

Xu Huaian covered the back of his head that was beaten, and he was not angry, but laughed "hehe".

Xu Xianling looked down at his palm, he suspected that he was too heavy, and he beat his son, who was not smart in the first place.

The decoration of the county government is elegant, the backyard is loaded with flowers and plants, it is indeed a bay of clear spring water to enclose the lake, plant lotus, raise fish, set up a wooden bridge at the end of the end, connect the front and back two courtyards.

Crossing the wooden bridge, stepping on the pebbles, is a small bamboo forest, there is a small pavilion standing in front of the bamboo forest, in the middle of the stone table and stone chairs, walked in, saw a pair of broken chess on the stone table.

Mrs. Xu explained: "The master and Yun Xiu were halfway down, and the child was not qualitative, and he ran away, so angry that the old man didn't go down. No one moved, so it was always sitting here, and I had it cleaned up after a while. ”

Yunxiu is Xu Huai'an's cousin.

An Qingming glanced at the remnants of the chess a few times, and after a few more moves, Baizi would win an absolute victory, and Heizi was still pressed and had no power to fight back, An Qingming thought to herself, this probably explains why Xu Huai'an abandoned his son and fled.

"You don't need to clean it up, what if the adults remember this chess game one day and want to continue?"

Mrs. Xu nodded, and the two of them sat down like this.

"The big girl is thoughtful, you see, I didn't even expect it."

An Qingming smiled: "Madame can't think of anything, it's just a few thoughtful hospitality gifts." Qingming is a junior, and the lady just calls her name. ”

Mrs. Xu shook her head: "Which one in Sanjiang County doesn't know the name of the eldest girl, the big shopkeeper of the An family is on an equal footing with the master, how can I call her by her name?" ”

An Qingming hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

Mrs. Xu saw that she was indeed not pretending to be polite, so she called "Qing Ming", thought about it and said, "How old is Qing Ming this year?" ”

"I'll be eighteen in September."

"......Eighteen," Mrs. Xu said with a smile, "When I was eighteen, An'er ran all over the ground." That child has been naughty since he was a child, no one can stop him, and he still has a childlike heart when he grows up. ”

An Qingming said: "The heart of a child's child is precious. ”

Mrs. Xu waved her hand, not saving face for her son at all: "Where is his childish heart, he is simply not doing his job." The old man always wanted him to take the exam to serve the country, but he didn't listen. ”

When people complained about their son, An Qingming didn't dare to echo it at will, so she could only say a sentence or two indirectly, and praised Huai'an against her will.

"My lord has always said that if you start a family, you will be able to settle down and start a business. Qingming, do you say it is? ”

An Qingming was a little embarrassed, she cast her eyes into the distance, and a pair of birds stood on the railing by the lake, chirping and whispering to each other.

"This ...... It is not good to put the beak at will. ”

"What are you talking about so serious," Mrs. Xu smiled gently, "we are just gossiping." I was worried to death by this bastard boy, I thought that he could marry a virtuous and virtuous girl and teach his children, he didn't need to be good-looking, he didn't need to have much ability, he was just ordinary, and he could talk to me more at home. I don't know when he'll be able to grant me that wish. ”

This frame seems to have been deliberately created by avoiding An Qingming, and everything is not touched.

said that it was cool in the yard, An Qingming said in her heart that this was not possible, she was wearing tulle Jiaosi, and at this time she only felt that it was unbearably hot under the gaze of Mrs. Xu.
