Xiping Street, Xufu Garden.

The show was in full swing on the stage, and everyone was intoxicated.

Xu Qinghe returned to his seat lightly, glanced at the empty plate on the table, and said secretly in his heart: No wonder I ran to find myself, it turned out that I had finished eating.

When Mrs. Xu caught a glimpse of her daughter coming back, she turned her head and asked, "Is your uncle okay?" ”。

"Uncle took a rest, and he is in good spirits at the moment." Xu Qinghe replied.

Mrs. Xu asked again, "Do you know where Lord Shen has gone?" ”

Xu Qinghe glanced at the empty seat next to him and replied, "Lord Shen is talking to his uncle. ”

"Did he go to the backyard to find you?" Mrs. Xu frowned and said, "This is too reckless1

Xu Qinghe hurriedly explained, "Mother, presumably Lord Shen was by mistake. You also know that the yard where my uncle lives is not far from the garden......"

Mrs. Xu sighed helplessly, "You two are really uneasy. ”

Xu Qinghe grinned and asked, "Is my mother happy to watch it today?" ”

"Happy." Mrs. Xu smiled when she heard this, "It's a pity that you don't understand these dramas, otherwise you can have fun with me1."

Xu Qinghe said: "Mother and cousin are happy. After speaking, he glanced at Su Jingshu, who was watching the play seriously.

Mrs. Xu didn't bother to pay attention to her delicious appearance, and continued to watch the play with her head sideways.

Xu Qinghe glanced at the babbling servants on the stage, and he really couldn't arouse the slightest interest. simply went around to the other side, sat next to Su Jin, and asked with a smile: "What does Ah Jin think of the drama?" ”

Seeing that her cousin was here, Su Jin hurriedly asked, "Is my father awake?" How is cousin here? After speaking, he was about to get up and rush back to the yard, but was pulled by Xu Qinghe--

"Cousin doesn't need to worry. Lord Shen was talking to his uncle. Besides, the maids are all guarding on the side, nothing will happen. ”

The cousin sat here and watched the play with peace of mind.1 Xu Qinghe smiled helplessly and said to the young man.

Su Jin had no choice but to sit down and asked, "What did Lord Shen and his father say?" ”

"How do I know?" Xu Qinghe said with a smile, "I'm probably discussing some current affairs and government affairs. ”

Li Bozhou, who was next to him, heard the two of them talking, so he asked sideways: "Lord Shen and Uncle Yue are talking in one place?" ”

Xu Qinghe nodded and asked with a smile: "Brother-in-law, isn't he going to join in the fun?" ”

Li Bozhou thought for a moment and said, "This is lively, I really want to make up for it." ”

Then he whispered to his wife, "Jingshu, I'll go see my father." You take good care of Ah Jin. ”

Su Jingshu nodded and replied, "Okay."

Su Jin hurriedly said to her brother-in-law, "I'll go with you." ”

Li Bozhou smiled and said to the young man: "If you want to talk about serious things, you should still watch the play here." ”

After saying that, he stood up, walked quickly out of the garden, and walked towards the courtyard.

Su Jin sat down unhappily and said to Xu Qinghe: "Cousin, my father is so weak now, and he can't think too much. When they talk about serious things, they must be exhausted. ”

Xu Qinghe hurriedly comforted, "Your brother-in-law knows how to measure best, he will pay attention." Ah Jin doesn't need to worry so much, she still watches the play seriously and goes back to tell her uncle later. ”

Even if Su Jin was worried about his father, he could only nod his head at this time: "Okay." ”

"Have you seen a play you like?" Xu Qinghe asked him in a low voice.

Su Jin looked at the stage with her eyes and heard her cousin's question, so she replied: "The previous one was about the love affair of the wind and the moon, and it was lingering and compassionate, so I didn't take it very seriously. Now this one is about the battle and sweeping thousands of armies on the battlefield, and people are full of passion, and they can't wait to serve the country immediately......"

Xu Qinghe couldn't help but smile when he saw that the young man showed a rare vigor and vitality: "Isn't my cousin determined to pursue a career in scientific research?" Now that you have watched this play, do you want to fight on the battlefield? ”

Su Jin's face was slightly embarrassed, and he said: "Whether it is a career or a battlefield, it is to serve the country." If I can't follow the text, then I will go to the army and join the army. No matter which path I take, I am determined to achieve something. ”

"Good ambition! This is the high-spirited spirit that a teenager should have.1 Xu Qinghe praised.

Su Jingshu heard her brother's ambition on the side, and smiled at him: "It's better for Ah Jin to take a serious career." You are so thin and weak, don't think about joining the army. ”

"My cousin is right." Xu Qinghe echoed and said to the young man: "Ah Jin has been taking care of his uncle these days, has he ever wasted his homework? ”

Su Jin didn't really want to join the army, and when she saw that her two sisters didn't agree with this path, she also stopped thinking about it. Hearing my cousin's question, I hurriedly responded: "I usually take advantage of my father's sleep to study and never waste my homework. ”

"Yes, be diligent and learn, and you can achieve great things." Xu Qinghe praised the young man again.

Su Jin couldn't help but wonder when she saw her cousin praising herself again and again today, "What's wrong with my cousin today?" Always praising me. ”

Xu Qinghe smiled and said, "Isn't it good to praise you?" Do I have to hurt you every day to be comfortable? You did the right thing and did a good job, and I will naturally praise you. ”

Su Jin smiled shyly, and her heart was indeed happy. Seeing that she didn't look at the stage much, she said: "Cousin, this play is very well written, and the singers sing it with great charm." Cousin, you might as well listen carefully. ”

Xu Qinghe shook his head and said, "You concentrate on watching the play, don't worry about me." ”

Su Jin saw that she was really not interested, so she had to nod and go straight to the excitement on the stage.

Xu Qinghe stood up and walked out of the garden and walked to the account office of the Xu Mansion.

The housekeeper Xu Fu was counting and recording the congratulatory gifts he received today with Mr. Bookkeeper, and when he saw Xu Qinghe coming over, he hurriedly bowed, "I've seen Miss." ”

Xu Qinghe said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, let me take a look at what birthday gifts I received today." ”

Xu Fu replied: "It's still counting, Miss wait." ”

"Don't worry, you guys keep busy. I'll take a look here. Xu Qinghe said to the two.

The small box is placed on the table, and the large box is placed on the floor. Xu Qinghe walked around the room, opened a few boxes at random, looked at them, and said: "I don't know if these congratulatory gifts can be worth the silver reward of the Qing opera troupe......"

When Xu Fu heard this, he smiled and said, "Miss, don't worry. The reward for the troupe is still more than enough. ”

Xu Qinghe's expression was slightly embarrassed, and he responded: "I'll just say it casually, so that Xu Bojian smiled." ”

Xu Fu hurriedly said to her: "Miss is a careful planner, how can I laugh at you." ”

Xu Qinghe smiled slightly and asked, "What kind of congratulatory gift did Lord Shen give?" ”

Xu Fu flipped through the gift list and said, "Lord Shen gave me a jade Buddha. ”

"Jade Buddha?" Xu Qinghe was stunned, where could he afford a jade carved Buddha statue?

Xu Fu nodded, looked around, took a few steps forward, picked up a delicate wooden box on the table with both hands, opened it, and said to her, "This is it." ”

Xu Qinghe took a few steps forward and saw the flawless and smooth jade Buddha in the box, and he was speechless for a while.

"This jade Buddha is worth a lot of money, it seems that Lord Shen is sincere in congratulating his wife on her birthday." Xu Fu sighed on the side.
