Chapter 605: Helpless (II)

When Brother Jin heard this, he ran to Mrs. Tai as if he had found a soulmate.

Mrs. Tai hugged him: "This is a piece of our brother's heart." The heart is more important than anything else. Otherwise, how can there be an allusion to "sending goose feathers for thousands of miles, and the courtesy is light and affectionate"? We have worked hard to pick oranges, also so that everyone can taste them! Isn't it, Brother Jin? ”

Brother Jin nodded again and again, nestled in Mrs. Tai's arms, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he smiled very happily.

Just as Xu Si came over.

When he saw a large pile of oranges on the table, he was surprised: "I picked so many oranges!" ”

Brother Jin patted the coarse cloth bag of blue embroidered chrysanthemum that he was carrying on his body, and boasted: "My mother helped me do it!" You can hold a lot of oranges. ”

Xu Siyu smiled and looked at the bag in front of him~ The strap of the cloth bag is not long, and the mouth of the bag is just in front of Brother Jin's xiong, which looks a little strange, but it is very convenient to pick oranges.

Seeing him staring at him, Brother Jin'er rolled his eyes, ran to the table and took an orange and handed it to Xu Siyu: "Second brother eats oranges!" ”

Xu Siyu smiled and took the orange.

Xu Lingyi asked him, "Didn't you go out today?" ”

Xu Siyu said respectfully: "Everyone is worried about releasing the list, and I don't have the heart to go out." I read a book at home. ”

"Now that I'm done with the exam, don't think about it." Xu Lingyi was obviously a little dissatisfied with Xu Siyu's answer, and there was a bit of a lesson in his tone, "Just do what you have to do." If you can pass the exam, don't be arrogant, there is still a long way to go: if you can't pass the exam, don't be discouraged, there is still a chance. You are still young, and you don't know how many life-and-death times you will encounter in the future, and now it's just the first time you can't hold your breath after the exam, don't you panic and have no idea in the future? ”

Xu Siyu stood up when he heard this, and solemnly replied "yes": "It's because the child is not knowledgeable enough." The child must take his father's words to heart! ”

The atmosphere in the room became tense because of the questions and answers of the father and son.

Xu Si Zhen and Xu Si Zhi sat there and tǐng uncomfortable.

Mrs. Tai looked at it and smiled: "Okay, okay!" It's rare to have a crisp autumn today, "The children are together again, so you don't want to teach the children." If you have anything to say, you will call the children to the study and talk carefully. ”

Xu Lingyi smiled and responded "yes".

Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie both breathed a sigh of relief.

Brother Jin urged Xu Si'er: "Second brother eats oranges!" ”

Do you want to free yourself from the siege?

Xu Si smiled at Brother Jin with a sense of emotion, and divided the orange by two, "Break a petal for Brother Jin."

Brother Jin shook his head: "Brother eat!" The big phoenix eyes flickered at him.

There is a gentleman's food. Brothers should also talk about the elder and the younger.

Xu Siyu didn't care, and was about to put oranges in his mouth with a smile.

Eleven Niang, Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie all spoke in unison, one shouted "Brother Yuer" and the other shouted "Second Brother": "That orange is sour!" ”

Xu Siyu was surprised.

I saw a trace of annoyance flashing between Brother Jin'er's eyebrows, and he turned his head and glared at Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie.

He was a very wise man, and he understood a little bit in his mind. Don't say much" smiled and put the orange petal in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

"It's not sweet, but it's not sour!" Xu Siyu looked at Xu Sijie with a sleepy look.

Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie were dumbfounded, and Eleven Niang was also very surprised, "Brother Jin was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward and broke the orange petal and put it in his mouth."

But after chewing it, Brother Jin spit out the orange with a "snap": "It's so sour, it's so sour!" He stared at Xu Siyu with wide eyes: "Second brother, you lied to me!" His face was full of anger.

Xu Siyu glanced at Eleven Niang quickly.

Eleven Niang was hiding her mouth and laughing silently, without any displeasure.

He was reassured. glanced at Brother Jin'er, and said slowly: "When did I lie to you?" "Kamima didn't think about it" "I ......don't eat it at all," he said, and threw an orange petal into his mouth. "It's really not sour!" He emphasized, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows didn't move, and then he handed the remaining oranges in front of him: "Don't believe you give it a try?" ”

Brother Jin couldn't help but hesitate a little.

"Push the narrow ghost!" Mrs. Tai scolded Xu Siyu with a smile.

Listening to the words, Brother Jin immediately realized. He ran into Mrs. Tai's arms: "Second brother lied to me!" I'm not going to be fooled! He looked at Xu Siyu triumphantly.

Xu Siyu pretended to sigh helplessly: "It's all grandmother!" ”

Brother Jin pursed his lips and snickered.

Everyone laughed when they saw it.

Only Xu Sizhen quietly asked Xu Sizhen: "Are the oranges sour or not?" Why didn't the second brother frown? ”

"That's the second brother deceiving the sixth brother!" Xu Si said earnestly, "Since you want to deceive people, of course you have to pretend to be a little bit." ”

Xu Sijie nodded: "I'll just say, how can an orange have sour orange petals and some orange petals are not sour!" He added, "Won't the second brother's teeth be sour?" ”

Xu Si said hesitantly: "Or, the second brother is not afraid of acid?" Wang Yun is not afraid of spicy! ”

They thought they were speaking in a low voice, but they didn't know that they were heard clearly by Mrs. Tai and others. A few adults couldn't help laughing, and even the maids and mothers-in-law in the room also laughed secretly.

The cool autumn breeze blew the evening fragrance of the hundred UA through the Lingqiong Villa, blowing the joy on the winding path of the woods, "those uauay grass also swayed."

Eleven Niang looked at the scene in front of her with a smile, and her heart was beautiful and peaceful.

It's just that such a good mood didn't last long.

The next day, the results of the township test came out.

Xu Si's edict has fallen.

Mrs. Tai was stunned, but soon regained her composure. "Life is full of ups and downs. It's better to meet when you're young than when you're young, and you don't know how to work around. ”

Eleven Niang nodded, feeling that Mrs. Tai's words were very reasonable.

"I'm afraid I'm a little sad brother!" She muttered, "It's just that his best classmates are all in Le'an." Look, do you want him to go to the Xishan Courtyard for a few days to relax? ”

"Okay!" Mrs. Tai said, "You just took this opportunity to handle his marriage well."

Eleven Niang responded, got up and went to the outer courtyard.

went out of the vertical UA gate, but met the little guy next to Xu Lingyi.

"Fourth lady, Master Hou let the little one come in and give you a salute. Hou Ye and the second young master went out of the city to climb the mountain, and they won't come back for dinner tonight. ”

Eleven Niang was very surprised.

Xu Lingyi seems to rarely have such tenderness.

She smiled and hit the little girl, turned around, but saw the second lady.

The second lady was a little surprised to see her.

Eleven Niang asked her with a smile: "Is the second sister-in-law going to see Brother Yu'er?" Hou Ye and he went out of the city to climb the mountain. ”

The second lady couldn't hide her surprise and nodded slightly. and Eleven Niang went to the inner courtyard.

At this time, it is the fourth day of the eighth month, and the Mid-Autumn Festival will be two days later. The UA grass in the yard should be replaced with the chrysanthemum and guiua, and from time to time you can see the mother-in-law who is carrying the UA grass. When they saw them coming, they all put down their work and bowed on their knees, "standing with their heads bowed and standing against the wall."

The second lady suddenly stopped.

She turned to look at Shi Niang, and said lightly: "Liu Ge Lao has taken the exam twice in a row, and Liang Ge Lao did not participate in the autumn of the following year, but only won the examination in the year of Yinmao." Like Chen Ge Lao and Dou Ge Lao, they studied hard for ten years after the middle school to get the title of the gold list. ”

The words are headless and brainless, but Eleven Niang understands what she means.

She was comforting herself not to care too much about Xu Siyu's defeat!

But these words came out of her mouth, "all of them seem to be ...... It's a bit hard!

Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Thank you for your concern." My mother's brothers were not all smooth sailing in the imperial examinations either. ”

The second lady bowed slightly and parted ways with her.

Eleven Niang looked at her back and couldn't help shaking her head, smiled and turned back to the main house.

Zhu Xiang was waiting for her in the inner room.

"Madam, Gongzi Dou sent someone to send a post to the fourth young master this morning, and wanted to invite the fourth young master to come to the house to enjoy the chrysanthemums on the tenth day of the first month. The fourth young master took advantage of his homework to be busy, "Push!" ”

Since that day Xu Sizhen said that Dou Jing followed Dou Ge to Xishan, Eleven Niang asked Zhu Xiang to pay attention to Dou Gongzi's whereabouts.

The emperor has not returned to Yanjing, but Dou Jing's invitation has arrived............

"Did Gongzi Dou return to Yanjing ahead of schedule?"

Zhu Xiang said in a low voice: "I have asked Steward Zhao from the back office to help me inquire!" ”

Eleven Niang said "um" and went to the UA hall.

Several mothers, who were talking in low voices, immediately smiled and stood up with their hands respected.

Eleven Niang in the hall of the Arhat netbsp; The little maid quietly served the tea.

Eleven Niang picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Mother Li, who was standing in the kitchen, said respectfully: "According to the list given by the department, I calculated carefully, there are about eighty tables per meal" On the day of the main day, it is estimated that there are one hundred and twenty tables..."

Eleven Niang listened carefully, and her mind was on Xu Siyu's wedding.

Coming out of the UA hall, Zhu Xiang replied: "Dou Ge Lao brought the eldest son, and Dou Jing Dou Gongzi did not follow him to Xishan. ”

Eleven Niang was silent for a long time when she heard this, and then went to Xu Sichen.

Xu Sizhen is not at home, but at Xu Sizhen's place.

The brothers are making river lanterns in the workshop.

Xu Si sat at the small square table in the workshop: "I think it's better to be a Guanyin Bodhisattva." There is one in the grandmother's temple. I'm afraid that the wind will blow on the fifteenth, and I'm afraid that it will turn over when the time comes. ”

Xu Sijie sat at the square table with a small machine checking the shaved bamboo strips: "This is not simple.

Let's just add a string of jewels around the neck of Avalokiteshvara. In this way, the bodhisattva's body is as heavy as the lotus, and it doesn't matter if the wind blows. ”

"That's right!" Xu Si said earnestly, "Why didn't I think of it." He sat on the small pestle beside Xu Sijie, "Then I'll paint Yingluo, you can make a try" ......"

Eleven Niang walked out of Xu Sijie's yard lightly, and whispered to Xi'er: "Let them play!" Don't say I've been here. ”

Xi'er bent her knees a little sleepily and sent her out the door with a "yes".

After eating Xu Lingyi's longevity noodles, many of Xu Lingyi's former subordinates heard that the Xu family's son was married, or came to the door to congratulate him in person, or sent his confidants' staff to send gifts and congratulatory gifts. There was a lot of traffic in front of Xu's house, and he was so busy up and down that his feet didn't touch the ground.

"If you don't want to make a big deal, you can't do it!" Xu Lingyi had a headache, "You can't accept this gift and not that gift, right?" When the time comes, everyone will be unhappy! ”

"Let's do it then!" Eleven Niang smiled and gently turned Xu Lingyi, "What did Master Hou and Brother Yu say that day?" When Brother Yu'er came back, he was full of energy, and I looked a little more energetic than before I took the township exam. ”

Yesterday I went home and took a shower, and then the power went out again, and today it was ten o'clock before the call came, and it stopped again at twelve o'clock, and the call came at half past three in the afternoon......,... I don't know what it will be like today. If the above situation occurs again, I will find a way to make up for it tomorrow.

The situation is unknown, please bear with me!

ps: Post a draft first, so as not to cut off the power outage!
