Chapter 223: A Family Has a Woman and a Hundred Families
Xia Yuanwai was overjoyed when he heard this, and couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows: "Yu Shizi has always been true to his words, and he will definitely be able to do what he says." ”
Then he turned around and looked An Sheng up and down with satisfaction: "Your mother and daughter have also added two decent outfits, and you can't go out so shabby in the future." Especially An Sheng, now he is a person who has been personally summoned and rewarded by the emperor, and everyone in the capital is paying attention. This is still like a childish little girl. ”
He turned a deaf ear to An Sheng's accusations, on the contrary, he was a little complacent, and he was directly immersed in joy.
Xue Shi coughed lightly and said with a dry smile: "Recently, there is no store income at home, and it is precisely because of the constraints that it is difficult to maintain daily expenses, which can be said to be difficult. And my lord, I'm afraid that your few stones are also a drop in the bucket, and they are stretched. As long as the master goes out majestic, it's fine. Our mother and daughter can settle first. ”
Xia Yuanwai was suddenly a little embarrassed. He is not in charge of the house, he is a hands-off shopkeeper, so he doesn't know firewood, rice, oil and salt, and he doesn't know anything about the Xia family's current expenses. Anyway, Xue said that he couldn't make ends meet, so he really believed it.
"I can't always be wronged by you." Xia Yuanwai suddenly sighed.
Xia Ziwu pretended to suddenly realize: "Isn't there the gold and gold and jade head that the emperor rewarded the second sister?" The second sister only needs to take out a little bit, and the mother and father don't have to do this. ”
Suddenly, the eyes of a room full of people all looked at An Sheng.
An Sheng couldn't help but sneer in his heart, although Xia Yuan didn't worry about the expenses in the house, An Sheng had a small book in his heart. Because her mother was seriously ill at the beginning, An Ran had been in charge for a few days, and the two sisters knew it.
What's more, although the family shop and cash were deceived by Xue Zhao and lost most of the family business, there are still fertile fields and harvests in the field, so it will not be as shabby as Xue said.
Xue's crying poor, Xia Ziwu sang and harmonized, the mother and daughter are hot eyes on the gold in their hands, and they want to get a piece of the pie!
To put it so pitifully, if you are not as they want, you are not sensible.
Xia Yuanwai shook his head: "That gold was given to An Sheng by the emperor, even if it is difficult for us, we can't fight its idea." ”
For the first time, Xia Yuanwai said a fair word to An Sheng, and An Sheng's heart was warm, and he almost gave up his weapon and surrendered.
She smiled at Xue: "It's not that my daughter wants to enjoy this reward privately. It's that the daughter's gold is used for another purpose. Mother probably forgot that the deed of our house is still outside. In the future, if someone asks for a deed in the door, like last time, what is good?
My father is now a household servant, and I think that the thief will not come to the door in person, and I am afraid that he will have to come up with other tricks. After thinking about it, An Sheng was worried that he would be displaced again in the future, and he would not have a stable shelter from the wind and rain. I want to exchange the gold for the house deed. Therefore, this gold must not be touched. ”
These words are to take advantage of Xue's shortcomings, and the disaster was caused by her, so she naturally can't say anything.
Xia Yuanwai praised: "It's still Ansheng thoughtful. It's better to keep your family than to enjoy it in luxury. If there are difficulties, grit your teeth, and the thrift will pass. ”
An Sheng blinked suspiciously: "We just have the autumn harvest in the field, calculated that it is more than enough to maintain the livelihood in the house, how can we have such a tight budget as my mother said?" Or, my daughter will give you a specific calculation? ”
Xia Yuanwai turned to face the Xue family: "An Sheng's words are reasonable, if we don't account for the expenses in the house together, those that are not necessary and can be saved will be temporarily hooked." ”
Xue Shi was debunked by An Sheng, and he smiled without a smile: "The master is so hard outside, how can such a trivial matter make you worry about it?" Tomorrow I will recalculate with Ziwu Zifi. ”
An Sheng rubbed his eyes tiredly: "Since this is the case, my daughter will go back first." ”
Xue couldn't wait like a plague god: "Let's go and rest early." ”
An Sheng returned to his yard, and as soon as he saw her during the Dragon Boat Festival, he immediately stepped forward to greet her: "Miss is back?" ”
The eyebrows flew and danced, and they were very happy.
An Sheng said "um" weakly, walked straight to his bed, and without taking off his shoes, he threw himself on the bed and had a close contact with the pillow.
Dragon Boat Festival pursed his lips and smiled: "How do you get tired of this appearance?" The maid went to fetch some hot water. ”
An Sheng buried his face in the quilt and only let out a shallow "oh".
When I went out during the Dragon Boat Festival, I brought in a basin of hot water and put it next to the bed: "The maid waits for the young lady to freshen up." ”
An Sheng wiped his face with a hot handkerchief, breathed a long sigh of relief, and asked the Dragon Boat Festival: "I've been busy these days, and I haven't bothered to ask how your father's leg is recovering?" ”
Dragon Boat Festival said happily: "Thank you Miss for your concern, my father is now able to walk on the ground, I believe that a few more days of recuperation, he will definitely be able to heal and recover as before." ”
An Sheng took out two ingots from his sleeve and handed them to the Dragon Boat Festival: "Let your father not be in a hurry to do things, you must recuperate, and don't leave sequelae." ”
Dragon Boat Festival waved her hand again and again: "Miss gave the slave maid last time and was rich." ”
An Sheng stuffed the ingots into the Dragon Boat Festival hand: "This silver is not only for you, but also for other purposes." ”
"Miss, you say, the servant will do it!"
An Sheng sighed slightly: "Now that the mansion is in a tight situation, I think that the Xue family will definitely be more and more mean to the people in the mansion." You can take these silver taels, and if you have money, you can make the devil grind, and give a little favor to those people, and take the opportunity to win them over. In the future, you will also have a foil in the house, so you will not be too passive. ”
Dragon Boat Festival pursed his lips and smiled: "Actually, even if you don't use these silver two dots, now the people in the house are also impressed by Miss, who dares to underestimate it, they are all vying for it." ”
An Sheng soaked his feet in the hot water and squinted his eyes pleasantly: "Just remember not to be too public, you know, that Xue family is narrow-minded and jealous, we are too high-profile, and we will cause trouble for ourselves." ”
The Dragon Boat Festival was not polite, and put the silver into his arms: "Miss, don't worry, the slave knows the measure." ”
An Sheng nodded, and the whole person relaxed.
Dragon Boat Festival suddenly said: "Miss, do you know? There are several matchmakers coming to the door today. ”
"Oh?" An Sheng raised his eyebrows indifferently and said casually: "The tide is rising, now that the Xia Mansion is different from the past, there must be people who want to get married." The Shicai Xue family was full of ambition and said that they would choose a husband for Xia Ziwu and Xia Zixian. ”
Dragon Boat covered his lips and grinned: "It's not for the third and fourth misses to kiss." I heard people in the house talk about it, the third lady is greedy for enjoyment, and she has been relying on the Meng family and not coming back, even if the lady is seriously ill, she is indifferent, who will take the initiative to find such an unfilial daughter-in-law? I can't avoid it. ”
"Zihuan is still young now."
"It's all for Miss You! You are now famous in the capital, and with the emperor's commendation, many officials and eunuchs are vying to marry. ”
"Huh?" An Sheng was startled and raised his face: "Father, what did they say?" ”
The master said to look at it slowly, and he was not in a hurry to settle down for the time being. You don't know, Madame was so angry that her nose was crooked, and the third lady didn't say less sour words. ”
An Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and was really afraid that if he was not in the house, his father would listen to the braggings of those matchmakers and sell himself.
This is no joke. It is said that Sai Weng is not a blessing if he loses his horse, so she Xia Ansheng said that it is really not a good thing for people to be afraid of being famous and pigs to be strong, and to be in a stormy situation for herself.
"Speaking of which, I'm just a daughter in the squire's mansion, and there are more dignitaries in the Jingli Quan Sect, why did I become a fragrant dumpling overnight?" An Sheng laughed at himself helplessly.
"Although it is true that the lord is an official now, he has shown his face in front of the emperor and received praise, so he may be on the rise in the future." The Dragon Boat Festival is naturally authentic.
An Chang sighed: "No one asks about the real poor in the city, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains." When my father had an accident, they all hid far away, and I hated to cut off the relationship with one slash at a time. Now that the case has settled, they immediately rushed to the knot, which shows that the reality is very real, they are all people who tend to be inflammatory, and none of them can be trusted. My father was wise this time and refused directly. ”
Dragon Boat Festival glanced at her meaningfully: "The master didn't see the cold state of the world clearly, but pinned his hopes on Yu Shizi, right?" ”
An Sheng remembered that as soon as he returned home, his father asked hopefully, and suddenly one head and two big.
"What is this, chasing after the wind."
There was nothing to say all night, and An Sheng woke up early the next day.
She couldn't wait to go to the medicine house, where it was like a thread that seduced her all the time.
The gates of the house are still closed.
When the concierge saw An Sheng, he immediately stepped forward and smiled apprehensively: "Second Miss is early." ”
An Sheng nodded: "Isn't my father already going to the court?" Why is the door still open? ”
The porter waved at An Sheng: "Congratulations to Miss An Sheng." ”
An Sheng was stunned: "Where does the joy come from?" ”
The porter stretched out his hand and pointed out: "Outside the door, there are matchmakers who came to tell Miss you to kiss, and they came over early in the morning, chattering endlessly." The little one was really annoying, so he simply closed the door and waited until the lady got up to make a decision. ”
"Huh?"
An Sheng stepped forward, looked out of the door from the crack in the door, and really saw a red and willow green outside the door, eight or nine mothers-in-law wearing festive grease and powder surrounded the door.
Yesterday, I heard about the Dragon Boat Festival, and someone in the house came to discuss relatives, and was sent away by my father's kind words, but I didn't expect there to be so much perseverance today.
There are hundreds of women in the family, but the battle in front of them is a bit too big, right?
