Chapter 48: Boredom

Feng Jiaojiao's heart for her friend finally let go a little, picked up an orange and peeled it. Feng Youcai's little eyes were aimed at his girl, Jiaojiao was one year older than Miss Liu, she would be fourteen years old in the new year, if she was fifteen years old, but Zhong Lingyuxiu knew nine out of ten - Miss Liu was worried about lifelong events, why did her little Jiaojiao still know nothing about it.

Alas-Feng Youcai was anxious for his daughter in his heart, and all kinds of love gathered in his voice: "Jiaojiao, haven't you taken a fancy to Li Chun?" Liu Huazui's vision is not good, he likes the flashy one, I think he can't take a fancy to Li Chun, just left it to me Jiaojiao. ”

Feng Jiaojiao had a petal of orange stuck in her throat, coughed earth-shatteringly, and circled on the ground, bluffing Feng Youcai jumped up with her fat stomach and patted her on the back.

"Daddy, even if I'm not your own daughter, you don't have to kill me." Feng Jiaojiao burst into tears.

"Nonsense, Jiaojiao is my father's heart and liver, half of my father's flesh and blood, what is immortal, bah, childish words. I just see that you also get along well with Li Chun, if you like it, Dad will help you recruit him into the door. ”

Feng Jiaojiao waved her hands as if she had heard something terrible: "Dad, that friend's wife, no, friend's husband, don't bully." Brother Xiaochun and Xiaozhi are tired of dying, and no one can separate them. ”

"Alas, my baby Jiaojiao, her heart is so good, where can I find such a good girl" Feng Youcai sighed shortly, "God, hurry up and call a good man to open his eyes, see my good Jiaojiao." ”

Liu Wang returned home and heard a soft female voice in the hall, not only did he not give him a warm feeling of home for the first time, but he was a little irritable. That voice was Yang Xiuxiu's, Yang Xiuxiu had almost lived in their house this winter, but Wicker was still willing to sleep with her. Liu Wang doesn't care about having an extra mouthful, how much a little girl can eat and use, the key is that just like this, there is a little lady outside, and it is inconvenient for him to plunge into the warm hall, drink a cup of hot tea and chat with his wife and children.

The merchant family has no study, only a small ear room for rest, Liu Wang sat in the cold ear room with a stomach, this damn Feng Leper is so proud! Alas, people are lucky and make money in everything they do. I don't have this good luck, if it wasn't for my father's sudden illness, I also studied, and the family's capital is also there, I'm afraid that I won't be on par with Feng Letou today.

After all, the Liu family is not rich and rich, and only raises a large brazier during the day, and everyone gathers together to laugh and kill time. The coldness in the ear room, the intimacy between Li Chun and Feng Jiaojiao, and Feng Youcai's call were like the cold wind that came in from time to time, swishing for a while, swishing for a while, blowing to make Liu Wang colder and colder, more and more unhappy. finally stood up and shouted, "Mama Li, Mama Li." ”

Li was very surprised when she heard what Li's mother whispered in her ear, Liu Wang asked her to send Yang Xiuxiu away, which had never happened before. It's almost time to eat, and there are no guests, not the style of your own home.

"The master said that he was going to the countryside soon, and asked Miss Yang not to come during this time, and to pack up her things." Li's mother was also puzzled.

This reason sounded okay, and Li thought a little too much: "Xiuxiu won't be surprised, right?" ”

"How can it, at the end of the year, no one has a lot of things. What's more, the old man asked someone to send a cart of things to follow Miss Yang back, which is not rude. "Those who have eyes won't sit in other people's houses all day and night like this, but this sentence was added by Mama Li in her heart.

At the dinner table in the evening, Liu Zhi felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, and his father's expression was surprisingly serious, but he behaved well during this time, he stayed at home and did housework, and helped Li's mother pickle a lot of pickles together. She looked left and right, muttering in her heart that Yang Xiuxiu was not eating when her father was not there. Forget it, it's none of my business, anyway, I'm already a person who doesn't hurt my parents.

When she was slandering, she saw her father take a piece of meat and put it in her bowl. Liu Zhi was so shocked that he knocked over the bowl, Liu Wang's already tense face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the words of the lesson rushed out of his throat and he swallowed it hard. His daughter's puzzled eyes made him feel sour, and he just gave her a dish, when did the family have such a share.

He decided to break the deadlock himself, coughing: "Why are there no fish?" Doesn't Zhi'er usually like to eat fish the most? Everyone looked at Liu Wang with the eyes of "Are you sick", the river fish is already difficult to fight in winter, and since Liu Wang deliberately reduced the contact between Li Chun and Liu Zhi, Li Ma bought less fish.

No one spoke, wicker is to follow the harem training, now wicker does not feel that there is any difference in the family, the mother originally taught her not to make a sound when eating and drinking, she also asked "why does the sister keep talking", Li had to answer "Mother has said that my sister is so good?" So you don't want to learn from your sister. ”

Willow Branch showed a look of "don't talk about me" and went to pick up a piece of sauce meat. It was the Li family who maintained the dignity of the head of the family and spoke: "There are few fish in winter, and it is often that Li's mother can't buy them." Isn't there any preserved fish here, let's steam a piece and eat it tomorrow. ”

Liu Wang looked at his eldest daughter's snow-white and slender wrists, and somehow felt so pitiful, his daughter seemed to be thin again, and Feng Jiaojiao was so round and unhappy, and her voice was loud when she laughed. He didn't feel a little complained that his daughter's charm was lost to Feng Jiaojiao, so he snorted: "What's less, what's less, isn't Li Chun fishing every day and sending it to Manxianglou." Our family treats him well every day, and I don't know how to send one. ”

At this time, even the Li family didn't know how to answer.

"Daddy, what the hell do you mean?" When he fell asleep, Li poured the footwashing water and asked in wonder. How can I take care of my husband, and it seems that he still likes Li Chun, "Yang Xiucai's lady over there has asked someone to come to visit me a few times." Otherwise, she wouldn't have always greeted Yang Xiuxiu as a relative.

Liu Wang also couldn't understand his actions, why he suddenly didn't want to give up Li Chun to Feng Youcai, a hateful guy. He only said sullenly: "After all, this is a major event in my daughter's life, and it doesn't hurt to think about it more." ”

When Yang Xiuxiu went home, Liu Wang asked the shop to fill twenty catties of charcoal and send it together, which made Yang Xiucai so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut: "The two families have been married, you see that they are so good to Xiuxiu, isn't it a sign of satisfaction with this family business." I also sent these charcoals, these preserved fish and fat chickens, tsk, I can have a good year this year. ”

Yang Lushi split his head and whipped him: "You are also worthy of charcoal for killing, only my son can use it." scolded Yang Xiuxiu again: "Don't go to the kitchen to make soup for your brother, after staying outside for a long time, I really think I'm someone else's daughter." ”

Yang Xiuxiu was so aggrieved that tears rippled, her fingers were itching when she put her fingers into the cold water in winter, how good it was in Liu's house, Mama Li used hot water to wash the dishes! There is only a small charcoal basin in my brother's room at home, which is enough for my brother to put his feet on it alone, and he feels that chilblains are about to grow after staying at home for a few days.

Yang Dongyun held a copy of "Four Books System" in his hand for a long time and didn't turn a page, and watched the snowflakes fall on the window paper in a daze. A little light red is printed on the window, it is an old plum in the small patio, although under the plum tree is his wife's chicken coop, drying clothes in summer, and in autumn the branches are full of snow fern radish strips, and in winter it is also a scene at home.
