Xiping Street, Xufu.

The afternoon sun became more and more enthusiastic, and when Xu Qinghe returned to Xu's mansion, he was sweating lightly.

humming a little song all the way, stepping into the main hall, I saw the maids cleaning up the cups and dishes, and couldn't help but ask: "Is this already eaten?" ”

One of the maids bowed down and answered, saying, "Madame has eaten and gone to my uncle's courtyard." ”

"Mother doesn't wait for me." Xu Qinghe complained and instructed the maid: "Let the cook fry two more side dishes, and they will be sent to my courtyard later." ”

"Yes, miss." The maid hurriedly replied.

Xu Qinghe turned around and walked out of the main hall and walked straight to the backyard.

When I entered the courtyard gate, I saw my mother accompanying my uncle in the sun in the court.

Xu Qinghe immediately stepped forward and gave a brief greeting to the two elders.

Mrs. Xu was talking to Su Zhe about some trivial matters about her children, and when she saw her daughter coming, she asked, "Why did you go home at this hour?" It's still light.1

When Xu Qinghe heard this, he hurriedly leaned over to apologize, and said softly: "Mother, it's easy to forget the hour when I'm busy, and I ask my mother to forgive me."

Mrs. Xu snorted lightly and said to her, "Aren't you busy today?" What to do when you go out of the house? ”

Xu Qinghe's voice was sluggish, his mind spun quickly, and he lied: "I went to Quanpinju for a walk." ”

Su Zhe was covered with a brocade quilt, lying on the rocking chair, and when he heard this, he snorted.

Xu Qinghe immediately left his mother, leaned over to the rocking chair, and asked, "What did your uncle just say?" ”

Mrs. Xu stretched out her hand, flicked it vigorously on her daughter's head, and said, "Your uncle said - Qinghe don't lie1

Xu Qinghe was so painful that he hurriedly covered his forehead, looked at his mother with a red face, and said bitterly: "Mother, don't play my head, it hurts 1."

"What did your father teach you? You can't lie in front of your elders.1 Mrs. Xu said, "You obviously spent a long time in the Assassin's Mansion, but you told me that you went to Quanpinju 1

Xu Qinghe hurriedly became cheeky, leaned over and grabbed Mrs. Xu's arm, and said with a smile: "Mother, I'm not afraid that you will be angry when you hear it1."

"What's the use of me being angry? You insist on getting along with Lord Shen, and I can still lock you up Mrs. Xu replied with a stiff face.

Xu Qinghe saw that his mother seemed to be really angry, and hurriedly promised: "Mother, I will definitely report the truth in the future, and I will never hide anything from you." ”

"You! Lord Shen is so good? Mrs. Xu asked helplessly.

Xu Qinghe nodded and responded: "Anyway, it's much better than those Lang Jun before1."

Glancing at Su Zhe again, he said to Mrs. Xu: "Mother, uncle also said that Lord Shen has a good character and is worthy of friendship. ”

"Then why didn't he come and ask you to marry you?" Mrs. Xu looked into her daughter's eyes and asked.

"Huh? ——" Xu Qinghe's face was stunned, and he was surprised by his mother's sudden questioning

How can you talk about marriage proposals?

Seeing her daughter's ignorant expression, Mrs. Xu sighed and continued to say to her: "You can't always get along like this. If he really likes you, why didn't he come to Xufu to propose marriage? ”

"Mother, it's too early to talk about marriage. I have just met Shen Dacai—" Xu Qinghe replied with little confidence.

Mrs. Xu was about to play her head again, Xu Qinghe reacted quickly, covered his forehead, rushed to the other side of the rocking chair, and shouted: "Mother talk well, uncle is still watching here1."

Su Zhe listened to the noisy words of the two of them, snorted at her sister, and reluctantly said, "Don't fight ......"

Xu Qinghe suddenly said with a smile: "Mother, can you hear it?" Uncle told you not to hit me1

Mrs. Xu was extremely helpless and reprimanded: "When did I hit you!" Since childhood, I have known to complain to your uncle1

Xu Qinghe grinned at his mother, looked sideways at Su Zhe's increasingly pale and thin face, his eyes were slightly wet, and he raised a smile and said affectionately: "Because my uncle has been protecting me1."

Su Zhe reluctantly responded: "Silly child, your mother...... It's also for your sake......"

Mrs. Xu quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said to her daughter in a serious voice: "If your family affairs are settled as soon as possible, your uncle will be able to worry less." ”

Xu Qinghe was slightly stunned and looked at Su Zhe.

"Since you and Lord Shen are in love, why can't you form a good relationship as soon as possible?" Mrs. Xu continued, "I have worked hard for so many years, and I hope that you can start a family. Jingshu has been married for almost half a year, and she may be pregnant with Sufu's grandson! But what about you? So far single 1

Xu Qinghe couldn't understand why his mother had regained the old thing today, and urged him to get married.

"Mother, in the past, you were anxious that I was alone, and you always urged me. But now, I have met Ruyi Langjun, and it is only a matter of time before I get married. Why should mothers be in a hurry? ”

Mrs. Xu responded, "How can I not be in a hurry? You're eighteen, not sixteen, not thirteen1

Xu Qinghe didn't feel that there was any obstacle at the age of eighteen, and when he saw his mother so angry, he had to respond in a loud voice: "Mother, I know my mistakes—I know my mistakes!" I should be in a hurry1

glanced at Su Zhe and smiled at Mrs. Xu: "I will immediately go to Lord Shen to discuss the marriage, and strive to complete the big wedding within two months, and give birth to a white and chubby grandson within a year1."

Mrs. Xu laughed angrily at her daughter's words, and said, "What nonsense! I am not ashamed...... How do you want to negotiate this kind of thing1

Seeing Xu Qinghe talking nonsense in a hurry, Su Zhe couldn't help but smile, coughed, and reluctantly cheered up and said to Mrs. Xu: "Sister, I've told you many times before, why are you still so anxious......

Mrs. Xu has been worried about her daughter's life events, once she opened the chatterbox, she couldn't stop, and at this moment, seeing the two of them looking at herself, she had to reluctantly calm down, and said: "I am a little upset and irritable when I mention this, if Qinghe is half as sensible as Jingshu, why should I waste these tongues1."

Su Zhe turned his head, looked at Xu Qinghe, and said to her slowly: "As a parent, worry about labor. As children, be considerate of ......"

Xu Qinghe immediately nodded in response: "Uncle, I know my mother's intentions, and I don't complain. ”

Mrs. Xu sighed, looked at Su Zhe's weak appearance, and said with a smile: "You have a good rest, don't worry about these trivial things." I'm not going to nag anymore. ”

Su Zhe glanced at the blurred clouds in the sky, and whispered, "How do you make a living...... What is a companion...... Qinghe, you make a living by trading, and you need someone to be your company......"

Xu Qinghe choked back tears and said with a smile: "I remember, I remember every word my uncle said. ”

"Good boy...... Go in and ...... with Jingshu Pack things together. Su Zhe weakly commanded her, "I still want to ...... With your mother...... Say the conversation. ”

Xu Qinghe hurriedly nodded and responded, "Okay." If my uncle is tired, he will sleep for a while. ”
