192. The Years Are Quiet
Xu felt the gaze of others, he turned his eyes to see Xia Chunfeng and his wife, and then, he pushed Wu Yongyan forward, and Wu Yongyan gritted his teeth and came to salute Xia Chunfeng and Mo Qiantao.
"Yongyan has seen Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Jun." Wu Yongyan's expression was a little tense, as if he was nervous.
Xia Chunfeng shook his head.
"I didn't expect you to be so tall." Mo Qiantao looked up at him and sighed that time was fleeting, since these little dolls had grown into big trees.
He smiled shyly, "My father is about to go to dinner, I wonder if you two can enjoy it." As he spoke, he looked back, "Why don't you see Sister Manxing." β
"She's ......" Before Xia Chunfeng finished speaking, she was bumped by Mo Qiantao with her elbow.
"She's learning to be a girl at home." Mo Qiantao opened her eyes and said nonsense, she had never forced Xia Manxing to learn something she didn't dare to be interested in, talking nonsense like this, just to spread it out better.
It's better to create a good image for your daughter.
Wu Yongyan smiled when he heard this, glanced back at Wu Muyun, and then opened his mouth to invite the two to dine together.
"I just wanted to go to the house to meet the two of you, but I didn't expect to meet by chance, I don't know if I was lucky enough to invite Lord Taifu and Mrs. Taifu to have a light meal."
Seeing him so earnest, Mo Qiantao guessed that she must have something to ask for, and after exchanging glances with Xia Chunfeng, she immediately nodded first. She knew that Xia Chunfeng was unhappy, but she couldn't control the gossip that arose.
Xia Chunfeng followed behind him with a gloomy face. The four of them entered a newly opened restaurant together, and the fragrance of new wood still exuded from it.
The four of them ordered a table of dishes, and Xia Chunfeng and Mo Qiantao seemed a little passive and accepted everything silently.
When drinking tea, Mo Qiantao quietly looked at the father and son, Wu Muyun still had a mustache, his complexion was darker than before, and he was older, and he looked more vicissitudes, as if he was scheming. As for Wu Yongyan, he is clean, like the young Wu Muyun, and he can't find the slightest charm that belongs to his biological mother in him.
There was a light cough in her ears, and when she turned her head to look, she saw Xia Chunfeng looking at herself with a serious face, and a chill welled up in her heart, she shrunk her neck, immediately shifted her gaze, and flattered Xia Chunfeng with vegetables. Only then did he ease his expression.
The four of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, Wu Muyun and Xia Chunfeng rarely spoke, and Wu Yongyan was looking for words.
Seeing that the meal was about to be finished, Wu Yongyan and his father exchanged a look, and then spoke uneasily.
"Don't hide it from the two elders, Yongyan has something to ask for this time...... The star sister is lively and cheerful, and she knows that she is a model of a good wife...... Hence ......"
Before Wu Yongyan finished speaking, he was shocked by Xia Chunfeng's sudden slap on the table. He looked at Wu Muyun in fright, and had the intention of asking for help.
"Don't worry, if Manxing enters my Wu family, I will definitely treat her like a daughter." Wu Muyun only has three sons under his knees, but he can't ask for a daughter, which is always a pity.
Coupled with his Mo Qiantao's fate, he had an inexplicable persistence and longing in his heart.
Hearing Xia Chunfeng snort coldly and was about to get angry, Mo Qiantao quietly pinched him and said with a smile: "The little girl has been willful since she was a child, and we can't do anything about her marriage, everything depends on her own liking."
As soon as she finished speaking, the three of them were stunned. Thinking that his daughter-in-law would not harm his daughter-in-law, Xia Chunfeng decided to wait and see what happened.
"This ...... Does it mean that Sister Manxing can agree? Wu Yongyan couldn't believe that he had ears.
Mo Qiantao smiled, "Parents always feel that their children will not grow up, and I am looking forward to marrying after the eighteenth generation of the star, but if I can't meet a sincere person, I don't want to marry." However, it is going to rain, my mother is going to get married, this thing can't be stopped, if you can capture the heart of the stars, I will go with you. β
Xia Chunfeng had a straight face, and couldn't help but interject: "However, I said ugly things ahead, I am such a daughter, and I will never allow her to serve a husband with others, if anyone provokes her unhappy, or hurts her, I will go bankrupt and die to the end."
Wu Yongyan shuddered, glanced at Wu Muyun, and saw him staring at the bottom of the teacup, not knowing what he was thinking.
"I ...... I will definitely be good to Sister Manxing, don't worry...... It's like taking care of your own eyes. After Wu Yongyan finished speaking, he took a sip of tea fiercely, and began to sweat in his heart.
"If that's the case, it's great. Man Xing looks well-behaved, but in fact he is still a child. Mo Qiantao pretended to be modest.
And Xia Chunfeng was not satisfied with the Wu family, he Wu Muyun finished beating his daughter-in-law's idea, and calculated it on his daughter's head, the more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became.
And Mo Qiantao's idea is very simple, girls always have to be chased by a few men before they know how to read the truth and falsehood, otherwise, they will be ignorant all their lives, and they have never enjoyed happy times.
And she ignores that joy always comes with pain......
Moreover, she was also worried that Xia Manxing had just been with Xiao Hanling for a long time, and the concept of love in her heart was not clear enough, so she thought that this was love, and she could start from the beginning.
In short, Xia Manxing will only marry the man she likes in the future, and this man must treat her as if she were his life.
For this, the husband and wife still have a very common understanding.
Just as the four of them were about to disperse, a small group suddenly rushed to Wu Muyun's ear and muttered a few words, only to see that his face suddenly became solemn, and then led Wu Yongyan to leave quickly.
Mo Qiantao didn't hear the conversation between the two clearly, she glanced at Xia Chunfeng, and her eyes were blank.
"That little guy just said that Fengrongxi hysteria has attacked, let Wu Muyun rush back to take a look."
After hearing this, Mo Qiantao felt bad in her heart, and the picture of seeing Feng Rongxi for the first time slowly appeared in her mind...... She was born beautiful and beautiful, like a magnolia flower with an elegant temperament, so beautiful that she did not fight for it, and she looked like she was quiet and good.
After all, after being famous, how could he end up like this.
*
It's another year of winter and spring.
Xia Manxing wore a crown of flowers on her head, and there was anger on her face, she took off the flower crown, put it on the table, and then sat down weakly.
"What? Who messed with you? Mo Qiantao asked with a snicker.
"It's not that Wu Yongyan, who looks honest and honest, and actually says some angry things." Xia Manxing pouted with a look of displeasure.
"So, do you care more about Yonghiko?" Mo Qiantao continued to probe the little secret in her heart.
Xia Manxing's face turned red and began to be impatient, "Mother...... You can really gossip. β
"How did you talk to your mother?" Xia Chunfeng appeared with a tiger face and defended his daughter-in-law for the first time.
"Okay, it's all my fault, you two will bully one of me." Xia Manxing finished speaking angrily and took the opportunity to leave.
Xia Chunfeng sat opposite her and took her hand and put it in her palm, "I know you have good intentions, but everyone outside is saying that Manxing is an old girl." β
She withdrew her hand suddenly, "The old girl is the old girl, eating other people's rice?" I'm happy to have my own daughter. β
"I'm afraid that Man Xing will be disliked by my husband's family."
Mo Qiantao's reaction became more intense, "What do you dislike?" My daughter doesn't have missing arms or legs, so there's nothing to dislike. If any man can wait until she is eighteen without taking a wife, then he is sincere. β
She paused and said viciously: "Who dares to chew the root of the tongue, I want her to look good!"
As everyone knows, it is she who is the one who falls on her lips.
I don't know who heard the gossip news this day, the neighbors all said that Mo Qiantao was jealous and gave birth to a daughter to the Xia family, and there was no movement in the stomach, and the hen still nested several eggs, Xia Chunfeng is a big family, how can he end up with no successor?
Mo Qiantao was not shocked when she heard the rumors, she knew that it was the Tang woman in the backyard who added fuel and vinegar to it. She is old, Mo Qiantao is not good at dealing with her, but she can still handle it inconsequentially.
"That county lady is really weird, she doesn't say anything about her mother-in-law, and even her own daughter is delayed for life, I really don't know what to think." Aunt Zhu on the other side of the street and a group of women gathered at the mouth of the Hu cave to chew their tongues unscrupulously.
"It's strange to say, Lord Naxia doesn't also connive." Aunt Niu, who sells snacks, also got involved.
Aunt Zhu sighed, "I'm afraid you don't know, that Mrs. Xia is famous for his fear of guilt, how dare he squeak, it is said that Mrs. County has good means." β
Aunt Niu was stunned, "It's a pity that Manxing's female doll was born."
Charming and moving, but I want to be an old girl, it's a pity. β
Mo Qiantao hid aside, and couldn't help but smile and bend over. She originally went out to make an appointment to visit the lake in Guanyao, but she didn't expect to encounter this incident in a hurry.
When a group of people and women heard the laughter, they all looked towards the place where the sound was made, and after a while, they saw Mo Qiantao coming out of the corner.
"That little thing in my family, let everyone worry about it, I really don't want to go."
The women looked at each other, then laughed dryly and began to play a round.
"We're ...... Jokes...... Mrs. County, don't go to heart. β
Mo Qiantao shook her head with a serious expression, "I am so touched to see that you are so concerned about the affairs of my family. β
As soon as she said this, Aunt Niu and Aunt Zhu almost choked, and even suspected that her brain was abnormal.
"But...... After all, this is my family matter, and I am afraid it is rude to be said like this by you, and besides, how did my family become an old girl? She is young, we are parents who have been confused all our lives, and we can't let our children get by, so we naturally have to find a lover to promote happiness in order to be happy for a lifetime. She smiled and approached the group of people, and said: "People, you have to broaden your horizons, you can't understand others with your own way of life, but you see that some people in our family are unhappy?" Or is my family full of stars crying about something? β
"Yes, Mrs. County is right." A group of people had to nod their heads, and the arrogance of the gloating disappeared without a trace.
"Ladies and sisters, don't focus on inconsequential people, and say these things behind your back that you haven't witnessed with your own eyes, that is to spread falsehood, isn't this embarrassing for me? What do you say I should do? The big guys in the township are not good at turning their faces. β
As soon as they heard this, the women began to sweat profusely, and they wanted to slap themselves a few big ears.
"Although the business has been doing well recently, it is inevitable that the rent will not be raised, and when the order paper comes down, you will all have to be anxious and ......anxious," she said, she raised her eyebrows and looked at everyone, silently threatening.
"This ...... How is it good? Aunt Niu was so anxious that she stomped her feet, and a group of people pulled Mo Qiantao and couldn't stop apologizing......
As soon as this matter is over, it is finally calm.
The willows on the edge of the lake hang low, like green silk and soft.
The wind blew down onto the edge of the lake, causing ripples.
"Peach Girlβ" Wan Yao stood on the boat and waved at her. Mo Qiantao bent over with her skirt and stepped in.
The two listened to the song and drank some wine, and Guan Yao couldn't wait to become a lobbyist.
"Ling Er and Manxing childhood sweethearts have no guesses, the love between them over the years, as an elder, I have seen it in my eyes, these two have already reached the age of marriage, and they can't be delayed any longer."
"Your Ling'er is still a young brother, what kind of heart do you have." Mo Qiantao responded with a smile.
"Look at what you said, what about Manxing, I'm not disgusted, but I can't bear to let Manxing follow my old path." Guan Yao is very serious.
"My daughter ...... in this life," she was stopped by Guan Yao before she finished speaking.
"Don't say that your daughter is a daughter, even if it's not, I won't let your daughter compete with other women for favor, you can rest assured."
Her words, Guan Yao's ears were about to hear the cocoon.
"You, don't tell me this, whether you can take my daughter depends on your son's ability, and it's useless to talk to me." Mo Qiantao waved her hand and didn't want to listen anymore.
After a sad ending, he got off the boat and met Xia Chunfeng who came to pick him up. At this time, it happened to be a rainy spring, and a shower came soon.
Xia Chunfeng opened the oil umbrella to shield the two from the rain. It's like the situation when she appeared outside the door of Xiao Mansion to pick her up more than ten years ago, and that picture made Mo Qiantao feel warm for no reason.
"You've been a woman like me in your life, have you ever felt panicked?" Thinking of what the aunts said, she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Loss! How can you not lose! If I had met you earlier, I would have been able to make up for the regrets in my heart. I owe you all this life, you never owe me, and I am already satisfied with you and Manxing. As he spoke, he thought of the first child who died halfway, which was always the pain in his heart, and he felt more sorry for Mo Qiantao's pain than these.
Pretty took her hand and stole a piece of incense on her cheek, "In a few days, we will find a quiet place and live without asking about the world, how about it?" β
"Really?" Mo Qiantao's eyes immediately brightened.
Xia Chunfeng's heart warmed, and the whole became very gentle, "Of course." β
The rain is misty, the spring is bright, the people are like this, and the years are quiet.
β¦β¦
In the blink of an eye, summer is coming.
The planting trees in the white crane courtyard, the flowers are very beautiful, a figure jumped from the forest to the window, touched the begonia branches by the window and shook gently, and a burst of girl's unique fragrance slowly overflowed from the window, so that the teenager hidden in it, his heart beat faster and his breath was unstable.
The girl dressed in red heard the movement outside the door, still lying motionless on the soft couch, rolled her eyes and said, "Who asked you to come, I will be seen by my father for a while, and I have to skin you."
When the young man heard him mention the man, he immediately felt his scalp tingle, but how could he restrain himself when he was in front of the beauty.
"Don't be excited, if your father comes, he will naturally have to reprimand me, you will also feel distressed, right?" The young man was Xiao Hanling of the Xiao family next door, he tiptoed towards Xia Manxing, and was immediately hit in the head by the soft pillow she thrown.
"Nonsense." Xia Manxing stood up angrily, with a look of resentment.
"Sister, don't be annoyed, that Miss Liu is interested in me, who made me angry and handsome, but I only have my sister in my heart, don't you understand after all these years?" Xiao Hanling made a heart-beating gesture with a hurt expression on his face.
"You're talking nonsenseβ" Xia Manxing was annoyed.
Xiao Hanling looked around with a pair of eyes, for fear that Xia Chunfeng would come out of nowhere, so he would give him a kick when he raised his leg.
Xia Manxing naturally knew the concerns in his heart, and deliberately shouted at him in a panic: Father. Sure enough, Xiao Hanling disappeared like a gust of wind in an instant.
She sat down on the couch again, smiling triumphantly. This Xiao Han Ling Tian is not afraid of the earth, but he is afraid of Xia Chunfeng, which makes Xia Manxing tried again and again.
I thought that I would cold him for a while, let him repent well, and then apologize to myself, hoping that I would forgive him.
β¦β¦
Xia Manxing turned eighteen, married Xiao Hanling, and for the rest of his life, he had 3,000 weak water, and only took one scoop to drink.
