Chapter 22: Blossoming (2)

As soon as Mrs. Xia saw Xia Ruiyan's appearance, she knew that he was stubborn, and held the ring ruler and said angrily: "You want to come against me, right?" Do you dare not listen to me? ”

Looking at the tense appearance of the mother and son, Xia Ruixi was a little reluctant: "Rui Yan, you do what you need to do first." The second sister has time these days, waiting for you, it doesn't matter how long you wait. ”

Hearing Xia Ruixi say this, Xia Ruixi sat down and continued to write silently. Xia Ruixi pulled Mrs. Xia's sleeve again, and persuaded in a low voice: "Mother, my brother is sensible, if there is anything, you can tell him well, he can understand." Don't always punish him with a ruler at every turn, although it is for his good, but also pay attention to the haste is not reached, and it is too much. "Xia Ruiyu is about to enter adolescence, children in this period are the most rebellious, the most difficult to clean up, a careless, may be wasted, must be more tolerant, more understanding, more understanding.

When Mrs. Xia heard this, she was silent for a while, her face was no longer so ugly, and she said softly, "I know." I was scared by your uncle's family and Beibei. always thought that jade would not be successful, and it was inevitable that he would be harsh on him. ”

Xia Ruixi hugged her arm and whispered, "I'm always worried about this, worried about that." ”

Mrs. Xia smiled: "I know, are you worried that we are not having a good time?" I'm worried that if you go to the Ou family, you will be unhappy, right? ”

Xia Ruixi smiled: "I can't hide anything from my mother." ”

Mrs. Xia hugged her: "When my mother was about to leave the cabinet, she didn't want to get married, and wanted to stay at home and live a good life." But as a woman, this level always has to be passed. In the future, you will remember what I taught you, think twice before you act, think before you speak, and don't be impulsive. Try to be a good person with good moral character. But if people bully them, don't be too weak, and use the means they need to use them. ”

The two of them talked for a while, and Li Niang came in with a stack of account books, and Mrs. Xia sat aside to read the account books. The weather was cold, and Mrs. Xia's room was as warm as spring with charcoal fire, Xia Ruixi leaned on the smoked cage, only feeling warm, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she fell asleep in a daze. Chun'er asked the little girl to take a blanket and cover it with Xia Ruixi, and let her go to sleep.

After reading the account book, Mrs. Xia picked up a drawing, which was the hot spring Zhuangzi she bought for Xia Ruixi as a dowry, and her interest rose: "Xixi, come and see?" Looking back, Xia Ruixi was sleeping sweetly, his face was puffed by the heat, just like a budding pink lotus, cute and delicate. Mrs. Xia couldn't help but feel a little crazy when she thought of when she was twenty-eight years old. Time flies, she is now a grandmother, and the girl who played in the water by the lotus pond is gone.

Chun'er was going to wake up Xia Ruixi, but Mrs. Xia hurriedly stopped: "Don't call her, she is also very tired during this time, and she will go to her mother-in-law's house in the future, where can she be so free?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but redden.

Li Niang persuaded softly: "Madam, you don't want to be like this. This is a happy event, and I want to be happy for the second lady. If the second lady knows that you are sad again, she still has to cry with you again? ”

Mrs. Xia hid her tears: "Where am I crying again?" It's too late for me to rejoice. Looking back, Xia Ruiyu stared at her with a pair of black grape-like eyes, as if to say that she loved to cry, and couldn't help but say angrily: "What do you see?" Are you done with your book? Don't wait for your second sister to wake up and you haven't finished your silence, there will be tomorrow again. ”

Xia Rui pouted and said, "If you want to cry, you can cry, I'm not as domineering as you, and no one is allowed to cry." ”

Mrs. Xia straightened up and said, "What did you say?" ”

Xia Rui lowered his head and covered his face with the book: "It's nothing." ”

Mrs. Xia thought of Xia Ruixi's words, and softened her voice and said, "If you hurry up and finish the book silently, won't you be able to have enough fun with your second sister?" Mother is not harsh on you, but hopes you are good. ”

Xia Ruiyu smiled when he heard this: "I know." Isn't my mother afraid that her son will become like her brothers? Rest assured, your son will never be that kind of person in his life. ”

Mrs. Xia smiled, touched his head, and was about to praise him a few words, when she heard Zhen'er talking to someone in the outhouse, as if it was Xia Ruibei's voice, and asked instead: "Zhen'er, who are you talking to?" ”

Zhen'er opened the curtain and came in: "Madam, the slave is talking to the third lady." ”

"Why didn't she come in?" Although Xia Ruibei no longer caused chaos in the family during this time, looking at the rules and regulations, and being taciturn, Mrs. Xia always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't grasp it.

"When the slave maid came in, she saw that the third lady didn't bring her with her, she was standing at the door alone, looking through the crack in the curtain, the slave and maid invited her in, she just shook her head, and asked the slave and the second lady to say that she would go to see the second miss another day." Zhen'er added softly in Mrs. Xia's ear: "Slave maid, look, the third lady seems to be crying." ”

Mrs. Xia thought for a while, got up and said, "I'll go see the three girls." During this time, I was always busy with the separation of the family and Xixi's marriage, and I didn't care much about her. "Unsatisfactory people love to drill the horns, Xia Ruibei just came but refused to come in, hiding at the door and crying, who knows where she thought of going?

Xia Ruixi slept beautifully, and there was Ou Qingjin in his dream, he stood under the green calyx plum tree of the Shang family, folded one and handed it to her, and groaned with a smile: "Don't you like this flower?" Shall we plant the whole garden with this tree? When it snows, I cook tea, and you stroke the harp. ”

Xia Ruixi took the flower, but shook his head: "It's not good, it's not good." You are too selfish. ”

He was amazed, "How can I be selfish? ”

"It's cold in winter, you can cook tea, you can bake the fire, but you want me to play the piano for you coldly on the side, isn't it selfish? Why don't you play the piano and I cook tea? ”

Ou Qingjin smiled dumbly, and was about to speak, when a voice sounded in Xia Ruixi's ears: "Second sister! Big lazy bug! Get up! Then a violent shaking woke Xia Ruixi from his sweet dream.

Xia Ruixi sat up stupidly and slapped Xia Ruixin's fat hand: "You scared me to death." ”

Xia Ruiyu stared at her: "Are you dreaming?" I know what you're dreaming about. ”

Xia Ruixi flatly denied: "Guess, what dreams do I have for such a while?" "But in my heart I am recalling the situation in the dream just now, it seems to be a very warm and pleasant picture, thinking about it day and night, and I subconsciously hope to get along with him happily and casually, rather than respecting each other, right?

Xia Ruiyu, the little monster, looked at her for a while, and said seriously: "Don't deny it, I just shook you when I heard you talk in my sleep." What are you blushing for? Don't worry, I won't tell my parents. ”

Did she talk in her sleep? What was said? Xia Ruixi was taken aback, ashamed and embarrassed, and saw Chun'er's eyes bent into crescent moons in a blink of an eye, knowing that he was being teased, he jumped up and went to chase Xia Ruiyu: "Stinky winter melon, you dare to lie to me!" ”

Xia Ruiyu ran away early: "Aren't you going to see Ah Yue?" What do you think about it when it's late? ”

Ah Yue is a pure black, beautiful mare with gentle and lovely eyes, and her fur is shiny and shiny by Xia Ruiyu.

When it saw Xia Ruixi, it was able to lean its head over and rub it on her, which seemed very affectionate. Xia Ruiyu exclaimed: "I'll just say that Ah Yue is smart." I haven't seen you for so long, and I still remember you. Then he was a little sour, "I'm so kind to it, it forgets me when it sees you." ”

Xia Ruixi found a shriveled apple and fed it to Ah Yue, stroked its mane, and laughed at Xia Ruixi: "Are you still jealous?" ”

Xia Ruiyu suddenly smiled and said, "Do you want to go up and try it?" I think you'll remember how to ride a horse as soon as you get on the horse. ”

When Xia Ruixi heard this, his heart moved, and he was a little eager to try, whether he remembered it or not, the instinct of the body was there, right? It's like when she picks up the needle and thread and consciously thinks about how to embroider the next stitch, but it's better than her unconsciously embroidering. The ancients said that they thought to themselves, and they thought, is it true that after changing the soul, some memories still remain in the heart? In modern medicine, there are also examples of the surgeon's lifestyle habits gradually becoming similar to the original owner of the heart after the heart is replaced. Xia Ruixi thought about it and grabbed Ah Yue's reins.

Xia Ruiyu shouted, "What are you anxious about? I haven't put on the saddle pedals yet. ”

After installing the saddle pedals, Xia Ruixi was a little scared again, and there was always a miserable picture of the horse going crazy in her mind, she was turned off the horse, and her head was broken and bleeding. Xia Ruiyu noticed her nervousness and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, Ah Yue was raised by you since she was a child, and she has a docile temperament." You rode that day, it wasn't Ah Yue, if it was Ah Yue, you wouldn't have an accident. That's okay, I'll let someone help you up, let's walk around this yard slowly twice, you find a feeling, okay? If you can't find the feeling, don't be sad, just play. ”

Xia Ruixi scratched his nose: "Little man, you know everything." ”

Ah Yue is really as Xia Ruiyu said, gentle and considerate, Xia Ruixi is not as clumsy as she imagined, and after a while, she got used to this kind of bump, and her body became naturally soft. The most nervous person was Xia Ruixi, who stared at Xia Ruixi and Ma without blinking, and let a big-shouldered and round-waisted nurse lead Ah Yue, not allowed to let go of the reins, for fear that if he was not careful, Xia Ruixi would be turned off the horse and cause a big disaster.

Xia Ruixi imagined how comfortable it would be for him to gallop on a vast grassland, and occasionally make a difficult move. When I was in YY, I heard someone calling: "Third Miss." ”

Xuan Ang went to see Xia Ruibei just now, Xia Ruiyan couldn't help but be startled, and reflexively looked towards the gate of the courtyard, but only saw Xia Ruibei alone, wearing a honey-colored lambskin cloak, with a golden hairpin and two small beaded flowers on her head, looking at the two with a gloomy expression.

Xia Ruixi motioned to the nursing home to let Ah Yue listen, and he got off the horse with Chun'er's hand and walked towards Xia Ruixi: "Beibei, my mother went to see you just now, didn't you meet me?" ”
