Chapter 101: Pure Feet
The night was dark, the human language faded away, and everything was silent.
Xiping Street, Xufu.
Xu Qinghe came to his mother's courtyard after finishing everything, and happened to see the maid entering with hot water, so he hurriedly stepped forward to take the basin and said to the maids in the room: "I will serve my mother to wash, you go down and rest1."
Several maids bowed down in response and exited the bedroom one after another.
Xu Qinghe carried the basin of water, bypassed the screen, and entered the inner room. Seeing her mother sitting on the edge of the bed, Shuangmei was gently beating her shoulders on the side.
She hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, put down the basin, and said softly to Mrs. Xu, "Mother, I will serve you to clean your feet." β
Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter's docile appearance and said with a smile: "You have also been busy for a day, go down and rest, you have your own maid to do these things." β
"Today is my mother's birthday, and I should serve it myself." Xu Qing said a word to Wen Yan, rolled up his sleeves, squatted down, gently held Mrs. Xu's calf, took off his shoes and untied his socks first, and then put them in hot water.
Mrs. Xu was overjoyed by her daughter's movements.
Shuangmei saw that Miss was squatting, so she hurriedly went out and got a small pestle and put it under Miss.
Xu Qinghe thanked him, sat on the small pestle, and continued to clean his mother's feet.
Mrs. Xu looked at the top of her daughter's hair and asked gently, "Can Jingshu and his wife be settled?" β
Xu Qinghe replied while pouring hot water on the back of his mother's feet: "It has been settled." I just got back from the yard over there. β
"That's fine. The first time Bo Zhou rested in Xu's mansion, I was afraid that he would not be adaptable. Mrs. Xu said.
Xu Qinghe chuckled and quipped: "My brother-in-law is the most unparticular, give him a hemp rope, and he can lie down and sleep." β
Mrs. Xu smiled, "You! Don't joke with Bo Zhou in the future, he is now your brother-in-law, and you should treat him with courtesy. β
Xu Qinghe replied casually: "I treat him with courtesy!" He was not only my brother-in-law, but also my good friend. Joke around with each other, out of the way. Mothers don't have to worry about that. β
Mrs. Xu said helplessly, "I used to be friends, but now I am relatives, but it's not the same." β
"If you talk about relatives, aren't you more intimate than friends? That jokes with each other are even more out of the wayβ" Xu Qinghe grinned.
Mrs. Xu couldn't talk about her, so she had to talk about the sidelines, "Your uncle's body bones are becoming more and more useless." I only watched a play tonight, and then I fell asleep. β
Xu Qinghe's heart was gloomy, and he comforted his mother with a face, "Xu is because he is not in good spirits at night, so my uncle will go to sleep." Tomorrow, let the Jichun class finish singing the rest of the plays. β
Mrs. Xu sighed, "It's easy for adults to see it, but Ah Jin is young and lost, and she will be miserable, sad and painful, I'm afraid I can't think about it for a whileββ"
Xu Qinghe endured the sourness and comforted: "Mother, and we accompany our cousin, we won't let him stand alone." β
Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter and said, "Your uncle once asked me that if Ah Jin enters the career in the future, please let Lord Shen help me more." β
Xu Qinghe was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly responded: "If you are with him in the future, these things will be natural, where do you need to be specially instructed by your uncle." β
Mrs. Xu smiled slightly and asked, "Lord Shen suddenly deigned to congratulate me on my birthday today, which made me appreciate him even more." I don't know what kind of congratulatory gift Lord Thorn Shi gave? β
"A jade Buddha sent. I'll show it to my mother tomorrow. Xu Qinghe replied.
Mrs. Xu nodded in response and said to her daughter: "Although the Jade Buddha is expensive, it is still not as good as the landscape map you sent. That's Wang Mengzhi's real handiwork1
Xu Qinghe teased when he heard this: "Why is my mother still thinking about that painting?" I've sent them all away, and I'm not going to come back. β
Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter and said with a smile: "Why can't you come back?" If you tie the knot with him in the future, that painting will not be your 1
Xu Qinghe endured the embarrassment and said, "Mother has also learned to tease me." How can such a thing be for the purpose of a painting! Besides, he and I don't know if we can achieve positive resultsβ"
Seeing her daughter's unconfident appearance, Mrs. Xu simply put down her words, "If you can't marry him, then think of a way to get the painting back1."
Xu Qinghe suddenly looked up at Mrs. Xu in surprise and asked, "Mother, aren't you embarrassed by me?" β
Mrs. Xu smiled slightly and said, "If you marry Lord Shen smoothly, there will be nothing to do." If you can't marry him, then you'll have to be embarrassedβ"
Xu Qinghe couldn't cry or laugh, speechless, so he had to bow his head depressedly and continue to help his mother clean her feet.
"Alright! It's all red, and it's time to ......finish washing," Mrs. Xu said happily.
When Xu Qinghe heard this, he lifted his mother's feet, wiped off the water stains, and put on silk shoes.
Shuangmei hurriedly leaned over and picked up the basin and went out of the room.
Mrs. Xu slowly stood up, and Xu Qinghe stepped forward to serve her mother and untie her clothes.
When everything was cleaned up, Mrs. Xu lay down in the quilt and said softly to her daughter: "You should also go back and rest quickly, you are not allowed to take account books, do you hear?" β
Xu Qinghe smiled and said hello, carefully tucked the corners of the quilt, then put down the bed tent, blew out the candles, and then closed the door and left, returning to his yard.
Xu Yao waited under the porch, and finally saw the young lady stepping in, and hurriedly leaned in and said, "Why did the young lady come back, the beds are all made." β
Xu Qinghe smiled slightly and replied: "I talked to my mother for a while, so I delayed for a while." β
Xu Yao helped the young lady to walk to the bedroom, and said: "Today's drama is really exciting, the singing is good, and the clothes are good, A-Yao is dazzled." β
"Tomorrow there will be another day of singing, if you like to listen to it, you can listen to it for another day, and you don't have to serve me." Xu Qinghe said with a smile.
Xu Yao hurriedly asked, "Isn't Miss going to listen?" After speaking, he also reacted, "Ah Yao forgot that Miss doesn't like to watch dramas-"
Xu Qinghe said: "I don't have anything important to do tomorrow, I want to rest for a day." You can go to the theater with confidence. β
"Okay, A-Yao, thank you, Miss." Xu Yao said happily.
Xu Qinghe stood in front of the bed and said to the little maid: "You are also tired for a day, go down and rest." β
Xu Yao replied: "Ah Yao serves the young lady to untie her clothes, and then go down to rest." β
"No, I don't. I came myself. You go down1 Xu Qinghe said with a smile.
Xu Yao saw that Miss insisted, so she had to say, "Then Ah Yao went down, Miss should rest early." β
After speaking, he saluted and walked to the door, turned around and stretched out his hands to close the door, and said to Xu Qinghe through the crack in the door: "Miss, don't look at the account book1."
Xu Qinghe smiled helplessly, "Why do you say the same thing as your mother!" Let's go down and rest1
Xu Yao closed the door with a smile and went to rest.
Xu Qinghe took off his coat, sat on the edge of the bed, sighed, and looked at the dark night outside the window on the right side in a daze.
