The twenty-ninth day of the first month of the nineteenth year of Yongning

Xia Xiaoman felt that he was like going to work now, and he ran to Ji's house on Wanxiang Street at a fixed time, with a slight difference, that is, there was an extra senior leader in the team today---- second lady, and there were some condolences ---- the old lady gave Ji Songshu a tonic.

Entering the back hall, the two sides sat down, Xia Xiaoman watched the tonic from the second lady's maid to Ji Zheng's maid, and only felt that it was a kind of irony. is that line, "Even if you give us Yunnan Baiyao at this time, it can't make up for our spiritual trauma." How much can be remedied? How many things can be done all over again.

After a whole day, Ji Zhengshi seemed to have regained his calm, his face was flat and bland, and his tone was normal and gentle, and he couldn't see any sadness, but his smile was still a little reluctant. The second lady persuaded her, and she persuaded the second lady back: "Sister is relieved, I have nothing to do, I have been here for so many years, what is this idea." It is this evil obstacle that he has brought about his own trouble, and when he is punished, he has nothing to do with others. Some things are destiny......"

Nian Liang listened uncomfortably, got up and came out after confessing, and refused to drink tea in the side hall, but only stood in the courtyard, looking at the dead wood and stubborn stones in a daze.

In fact, subconsciously, he has regarded his aunt as a substitute for his mother, and when his aunt is here, he is not a motherless child, and when his aunt is happy, he is happy, so he always thinks about his aunt's well, his aunt is happy, whether he is worried about the house, or about the Ji family's brothers and sisters, he is all going towards this ultimate goal. But what about ...... in the end?

Intellectually, he clearly knows that there are some things that he can't blame others, and some things that he can't do rashly. He is also calm and does not move; But emotionally, he still couldn't avoid his chagrin, on the one hand, he blamed himself for going out to travel with Ji Songshu, and on the other hand, he was angry that he couldn't take revenge immediately.

Xia Xiaoman stood with him for a while. I only felt the cold going up from the soles of my feet, and I didn't feel that my upper body was thick, but my knees were cold. Thinking of Nian Liang's leg, she hurriedly went over and persuaded him: "Go back to the house and warm up, it's still cold." ”

Nian Liang shook his head and said nothing.

"What are you trying to do, you say." Xia Xiaoman sighed and glanced at the maid behind him. took a few steps closer and said in a low voice: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless for you to think about it." Mrs. Auntie didn't blame you from beginning to end, and she didn't blame the Nian family, why? First, I know Uncle Ji's temperament, and then I don't come because I love you?! You are frozen, and you have a headache and brain fever, how uncomfortable do you make your aunt and wife? ”

Nian Liang sighed, glanced at Xia Xiaoman, and said in a low voice: "Man Niang." I'm not a child. Don't coax me like that. I'm fine, I'm bored in the house, I just want to stay here

"Do you think you're seventy or eighty?" Xia Xiaoman pursed his lips and said, "Just say that you do this." If you want to freeze, let's go home and freeze, Mrs. She's this yard is frozen, who are you frozen? My aunt can't see it if she can't see it! You're just adding to your aunt's troubles. Nian Liang glared at Xia Xiaoman angrily, and when he saw her expression, he knew that he was a radical general, so he had to whisper helplessly: "Manniang!" ”

"Let's go back to the house." Xia Xiaoman tugged at his sleeve and said, "I know you're in a bad mood, I've persuaded everything I can." Again, it's useless to talk about it. You'll have to figure it out for yourself. ”

Nian Liang moved his steps, and muttered: "I think I figured it out, but I still ......" He shook his head, and with Xia Xiaoman's support, he turned around and went to the side hall.

After walking for less than two steps, I saw Sister-in-law Qi hurrying over here with two little maids. Sister-in-law Qi saw Nian Liang in the yard. I couldn't help but be stunned. Hurriedly walked two steps over to greet him, and said with a smile: "Why is the sixth master standing here?" Come on, please ...... in the house."

Nian Liang nodded and said, "Breathable." Just about to go back to the house. ...... you are" Because seeing Qi's sister-in-law's anxious face, she smiled with her, her brows were also distorted, and she didn't open it completely, so she said: "You should be busy with your going......"

Sister-in-law Qi blessed her body, and only said, "Sixth Master Xie." This is a bit of a matter to go to Mrs. ...... "The feet have been moved, and after saying a word, the person has gone far away, and he flashed into the house with the little maid in three or two steps.

Nian Liang paused, frowned and asked Xia Xiaoman in a low voice: "In your opinion, what is ......?" Mo is not a cousin......"

Xia Xiaoman snorted and said, "Sister-in-law Qi is Grandma Ji's person, she came over in such a panic, it must be Uncle Ji." But it's not like a medical thing, otherwise Xiao Wei's sister-in-law can have a letter come over. She turned back to fennel, and when she came near, she whispered to her to inquire. Fennel answered.

After a while, Ji Zheng took Qi's sister-in-law and a group of maids out of the house quickly, and when she saw Nian Liang, she paused and said, "Why is Liang'er standing here?" What a cold day! Go to the house! The tone was already very anxious.

Nian Liang hurriedly said: "Nephew will go in, aunt don't worry." ”

Ji Zheng nodded, only went to the front yard, came over for a while, and left in a hurry without looking at Nian Liang entering the house.

Not long after they had gone out on their front feet, Fennel came back on their hind feet. I followed Xia Xiaoman to Wanxiang Street before, she was also familiar inside and out, and a familiar face was easy to do, and she asked the reason from the mouth in a few words.

"Go back to grandpa, aunt and grandma." Fennel leaned close and whispered: "Uncle Ji got up early in the morning and practiced calligraphy in the study, Grandma Ji couldn't persuade him, Uncle Ji was annoyed, so he bolted himself in the study......"

Nian Liang and Xia Xiaoman said in unison: "Practice calligraphy?!" ”

On the desk and on the ground, the paper was overwhelming, the handwriting on it was twisted and crooked, and the ink was dripping, and it was almost impossible to make out what was written.

Ji Songshu had a calm face, held a pen in his left hand, and wrote one after another frantically.

Where is the left hand used to write? The handwriting was slightly distorted, or the hand trembled and the ink stained the words, Ji Songshu drank and ordered the scholar to abandon the sheet, relay the paper, press the paperweight, lick the ink at the end of the pen, grit his teeth and write again.

The hands of the two little scholars who were waiting for the pen and ink were trembling slightly, and they didn't know if the master was angry or crazy. No matter how the master and grandmother cried outside, they were indifferent, and there was only this paper and this word in their eyes.

Outside the door, there were mixed footsteps and the sound of the maids greeting each other, and Ji Qi's family also stopped crying. Crying: "Madame......"

The two little scholars in the room looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. Madame is here, it's time for you.

Ji Songshu didn't hear it, and after a few strokes, he scrapped one more, and shouted in a low voice: "Change the paper." ”

The little scholar who changed the paper hesitated for a moment and persuaded: "Master, ...... outside"

At the right time, there was a knock on the door. Nafu's voice came in, and she said, "Uncle, Madame is here!" ”

Ji Songshu still ignored it, turned his head, glared at the paper-changing scholar with red eyes, and shouted: "Change paper!" ”

The little scholar shuddered with fright, shrunk his neck, and hurriedly took out the bad paper, threw it on the ground, and then spread it on the new ground. Soon. This is another scrap, and his hands are extremely sharp, and he will change it again. Write again, change again.

The knocking on the door outside the study grew louder. Ji Zhengshi also shouted: "Song'er, open the door!" ”

The little scholar who changed the paper also sweated his sideburns, and while the master was writing, he squeezed his eyes at the scholar on the opposite side, and raised his chin to the door. . . The grinding scholar's face was also twisted, his eyes were squeezed, and he grinned at his master, signaling that he didn't dare.

Outside the study, the door was already slammed. After a while, there was a greeting "Sixth Master......", and then Nian Yu's voice sounded, "Is my cousin going to turn my aunt away?!" Who is in it to serve? Why don't you come and open the door?! ”

The scholar who changed the paper stomped his feet vigorously, and took advantage of the time to change the paper and rushed straight to the opposite side to kill the chicken and wipe the neck. The grinding scholar hesitated, and he was really shouting fiercely outside the door, and because he saw that the housekeeper of the sixth master had been taking care of things here these days. The rules are well organized. I don't know how many times stronger than the housekeeper at home, but I know that the sixth master is extremely strict. At this time, when he heard that the sixth master was coming, he asked the people who were waiting in the house, and he was also scared in his heart, and when he saw that the master did not pay attention to him, he gently brushed the ink block in his hand and tiptoed to the door.

The paper-changing scholar hated him in his heart, thinking he was stupid, so he couldn't help but stretch his neck and ask him to hurry up, but as soon as he got up, Ji Songshu wasted another piece of paper here, and changed the paper in a low voice. The paper-changing scholar only paid attention to that side, and when he heard the master shouting, he hurriedly stretched out his hand.

Ji Songshu frowned and raised his head because he was dull, just about to train him, he saw the ink scholar running towards the door, he was very annoyed, raised his hand and threw the pen at the scholar, and scolded: "Bastard, where are you going?" Come back and grind the ink! ”

The scholar is almost at the door, he has run away, he has been punished left and right, he has been punished by the master on both sides when he goes back, and he has only been punished by his own father when he opens the door, where will he go back? It wasn't a throwing knife, he was afraid of something, and it didn't hit him, he took two steps over and opened the door, and stood by the door with his hands down.

Ji Zheng walked in quickly holding Ji Qi's hand, and said angrily and anxiously: "What are you messing with?" You left everything you said to you yesterday for your mother?! ”

Ji Songshu saw that his mother came in and didn't move, his face turned from blue to red, his eyes were full of bloodshots, he was almost crazy, gritted his teeth, and went to the pen stand to grab the pen and lick the ink, and smeared it on the paper as usual, and only said in his mouth: "Mother didn't hear that Lu Yixun, Huang Yin, and Chu Langzhong were all left-handed scholars?" The predecessors can, and so can the son! ”

Ji Zheng had already arrived at the side of the case, slapped the table, and said angrily: "How did I tell you yesterday?" How did you promise to be a mother? As he spoke, he hurried over to grab his pen and scolded, "Evil obstacles! The doctor told you to calm down and recuperate, you are still so competitive, you don't want your body bones?! ”

Ji Songshu refused to let go, holding the pen tightly, stretching out his arm to dodge, the pen tip shook a little, the sleeve on the case was stained with ink, his eyes were red, like a madman, and he only said: "Mother let go!" My son will be able to practice left-handed characters! ”

Ji Zheng's tugging on his sleeve, where is he willing to put it? only scolded: "Evil obstacles, don't you want to listen to your mother's words?" Give the pen to the mother! ”

A cadre of people came over to help this and pull that, and it was a mess for a while.

Nian Liang, who was standing at the door, saw it, and hurriedly pushed Xia Xiaoman beside him, and said urgently: "Go and take care of your aunt!" ”

Just now, when he heard Fennel's reply, he was about to follow, Xia Xiaoman persuaded him tightly: "This is my aunt's housework, let's leave it alone." Otherwise, my aunt and wife won't be able to get up and down. ”

Nian Liang hesitated for a moment, but said: "My cousin is a filial person, and he shouldn't do anything disobedient." It's just that he is stubborn, and I'm really afraid that what he will say will make my aunt sad, so let's persuade him......"

Xia Xiaoman was helpless, so he had to follow him.

Because after coming over, Ji Zheng's face was really not good-looking. Nian Liang knew that it was abrupt, and he didn't dare to speak, so he didn't follow in when he opened the door, but he came, and he was really afraid that his cousin's words would hurt his aunt, so he refused to leave, and only stood quietly at the door, and then said. Then I saw the room full of papers. Listening to Ji Songshu's words to write with his left hand, he was very sour in his heart, he had also studied hard in the cold window, and he had also longed for the title of the gold list, and he understood the student's mentality the most, he was weak and had to give up, it was really his own reason, so he didn't have much to be angry about, and Ji Songshu was flying into trouble......

He sighed, and wanted to pull Xia Xiaoman away. Suddenly, I saw my cousin arguing with my aunt, and I was in a hurry, so I thought about going forward to pull the two apart, but my legs couldn't. As soon as his body staggered, he hurriedly held on to the door frame, and pushed Xia Xiaoman to help.

Xia Xiaoman was also stunned by the left-hand paper in the room, she never knew that a person could be so persistent. Nian Liang pushed her, she woke up, and when she saw that Nian Liang was about to fall, she hurriedly went to help him, but was pushed away by him. His eyes were flushed, too. Pulling his neck, he shouted, "Go take care of my aunt!" ”

Xia Xiaoman subconsciously shrank his neck, and saw that the maid behind him had already rushed over to support Nian Liang, so he hurriedly crossed the threshold and came inside.

Ji Chung's book here is a little stunned, he can't break free, he is anxious and annoyed, and he has lost his mind. Shake your hand violently. pushed Ji Zheng away and said loudly: "I can write." I can write!! Why don't you believe me?! ”

Ji Zhengshi was unexpectedly pushed by him, his feet were unstable, and he withdrew a few steps, although there were maids and women holding him tightly, but his body hit a square table backwards, and his waist and eyes hit the corner, and there was a pain. She groaned and reached out to support her waist, and the maids and women were frightened, busy helping and rubbing.

Ji Songshu suddenly broke free from his mother, and he had no strength to borrow, so he staggered back two steps, and the people who were originally pulling the frame over there listened to Ji Zheng's pain, and they all looked up at her, and before he could help Ji Songshu, he fell to the ground.

Ji Zheng's family has been only looking at his son's land, and when he saw him falling, he hurriedly pushed away the people around him and shouted: "Go and hold on to Song'er!" Just go!! ”

The people over there came back to their senses and hurriedly came over to support Ji Songshu, but Ji Songshu was stunned, only waved his arms, and shouted: "Let me write!" I can write!! I can write with my left hand!! Can I take the !! ”

Ji Zheng's couldn't care about his back pain, gritted his teeth and straightened up, shook off everyone and was about to run to Ji Songshu's side, shouting at those people who were holding his son: "Slow down, slow down!" Watch his hands! Watch his hands!! Don't hurt my son's hand!! ”

Xia Xiaoman was running to the front of the case, and when he saw this scene, he was hit hard in his heart.

That's what a mother is.

A mother who completely disregards herself and thinks about her child.

In her previous life, her mother had loved her so wholeheartedly, ignoring her pain, and only asking her whether she was warm or cold. Children, they all enjoy these with peace of mind, where have they thought about what to return, when they are older, they know, they want to reciprocate, but they want to raise and not wait. She had to wait only a few months before her mother died.

Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs!

At this time, Xia Xiaoman's mind was full of his mother's face,---- that is the person who loves you in the world, and if you lose it, you will know that no one will love you selflessly like her mother."

She took two steps around to Ji Song, who was screaming to write and take the exam, her eyes were filled with water, but what spewed out was fire, and when she raised her hand, she slapped him firmly and scolded: "What about your filial piety?!" What do you do to your mother?! ”

Ji Songshu was stunned by this sudden slap, and looked at Xia Xiaoman in a daze and forgot to react.

Not only was he stunned, but the people of the Ji family were stunned, as if they had suddenly pressed the pause button, and they were all frozen.

Xia Xiaoman gasped in this silence, her tears were already crackling, she didn't raise her hand to wipe it, and with this breath, she pointed at Ji Songshu and said: "You only know that you are bitter, you are not easy, have you ever thought that your mother is bitter, your mother is not easy?!" You study, and your mother accompanies you to endure hardships! If you are happy, she can be happy, and you will be unhappy for a while, how many days will she have to be uncomfortable! You keep talking about filial piety, but does your filial piety stop at your mouth? How do you do your filial piety? Mother is willing to do everything for you, why don't you open your eyes and take a look? What is her picture, the picture is your gold list title Feihuang Tengda?! What she wants is not how big an official you are or how much money you make, what she wants is just her son to be good, safe and easy!! If you are really filial, you should take care of it so that your mother can rest assured and at ease!! ”

Ji Zhengshi listened, every sentence hit her heart, thinking about the bitterness in the past, thinking about the anxiety of the past few days, she couldn't hold it anymore, howled, pulled Xia Xiaoman into her arms, and cried: "My son!" Only you know my heart......! What have I worked hard all my life for, isn't it just to make this family safe!! ……”

The maids and women around came back to their senses, and they all shed a few tears with them, and they were busy persuading.

Xia Xiaoman was much more sober when he roared, his heart darkened, he knew that he was impulsive again, and he hurriedly apologized: "Aunt and Mrs. forgive the sin, Manniang has trespassed, and she is willing to be punished." ”

Ji Zheng cried: "My son, what you said is not right, you are the one who knows me." Then he let go of her, and pointed at Ji Songshu and scolded: "You evil obstacle!" It's in vain to love you so much! My mother said that if I don't hit this time, what's the difficulty of staying up for another three years?! Mother can wait with your father for a lifetime, but can't she accompany you for half a lifetime?! ”

Ji Songshu didn't know if he was still in chaos, and looked at Ji Zheng and Xia Xiaoman blankly, stunned.

Xia Xiaoman sighed, took a few steps forward, and said, "I'm talking too much today, so let's just say it." Uncle Ji, forgive me for the sin, how many years have you been taking the exam yourself? Are you three years away? Man Niang admires your perseverance and admires your perseverance! Now it's just a small setback, if you take care of this wrist, you will be able to do it as usual in a hundred and ten days, and you will be named on the gold list in three years, and nothing will be delayed. But if you have to practice left-handed handwriting now, and this wrist is broken, then you can really only write with your left hand in your life! Which is more important, do you weigh it yourself? ”

Ji Songshu covered his cheek with his left hand, stared at his right wrist, opened his mouth, but didn't make a sound.

Ji Zhengshi walked up to Ji Songshu with the help of the maid, stretched out his hand to pull him, and cried: "My son, you should take care of your own body." Mother only this sentence, if you want to take the test, your mother will accompany you to take the test, if you want to be an official, your mother will donate the official with you! What Manniang said is right, what is the mother's picture? Mother, just want you to be good! You're all right......"

Ji Songshu suddenly turned over and knelt down, hugged his mother, and cried bitterly: "Mother, my son is wrong!" The son is not filial! But, the son is unwilling, the son is unwilling! ”

-------- doesn't count as word count dividers-

PS: When I was a child, I often complained that my parents had imposed their unfulfilled ideals on me, which made my life very heavy, and I always felt that I was living for them.

I didn't obey their arrangement, and when I got my first job, I was very happy that I finally got rid of it. Laugh.

It wasn't until a long time later that there were many unsatisfactory things, and after talking to my parents, I knew that in addition to hoping for their son to become a Chan, what they wanted most was just for their children to be good and safe.

In this chapter, I wanted to write about a paranoid, but at the end of the chapter, I wanted to say, please be kind to those who love you.
