Chapter 56: Asking for Marriage on the Spot
Because of the suddenness of the incident, He Siniang and He Wulang were already slightly injured when they were helped up, He Siniang's palm propped up on a mica stone that fell off the screen, and made a small cut, He Silang didn't touch the glass, mica and other things, but his knee happened to hit the base of the screen and was a big piece of blue - the two sisters and brothers didn't care about their injuries, but they were even more worried about 'ruining' the things of the Zhuo family.
Zhuo 'Yu' listened to their roundabout inquiry about the value of the broken screen, and the two sisters and brothers were all worried, crying and laughing: "You two are fine, let's thank God, didn't you see that the three sisters-in-law almost jumped up?" What is a screen? After she said this, she suddenly thought that Zhuo Zhaojie was the person from the fourth room, and she had reconciled with this cousin, and she couldn't help but feel that her words were a bit overstepping, and she was afraid that there would be another gap, so she was a little sneering.
It happened that Zhuo Zhaojie stood outside the 'door' of the inner room and told the He family about the injuries of the brothers and sisters of the He family, and when he heard the words, he answered: "What the sixth sister said is very true, and besides, this is not someone else's thing, isn't our third sister-in-law also your sister-in-law?" This thing belongs to your sister-in-law, I see where the third sister-in-law still has the heart to care about that screen now, and she has been listening to you for nothing big before she breathes a sigh of relief! ”
When He Siniang heard this, she was still frowning, glanced at He Wulang, and said, "But when our mother comes, how are we going to 'hand' over the generation?" ”
He Wulang also said disappointedly: "How many Chenguang mothers have begged their mothers today to take us out of the 'door'......"
"Mother said before that if this time out of the 'door' caused any trouble, we will definitely not be allowed to come out in the future!" He Siniang's eyes gradually turned red, and she looked at Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie pitifully, "Two Sister Zhuo, this is the first time we have seen each other, it seems that this meeting is goodbye, oh no, anyway, it will be difficult for us to see each other in the future......"
He Wulang secretly stepped on He Siniang's foot, and asked her to change the inauspicious "farewell", which would make a melancholy state by herself, and said: "Poor our eldest sister, now that she is not in good health, if you know that I and the fourth sister will be punished, I am afraid that I will be worried in my heart, alas...... It's all because we weren't careful, so we got here and caused trouble......"
He Siniang continued: "Seeing that my mother is about to come over, if we know about this, the two of us will definitely be sent back, and I am afraid it will be difficult to come over to visit the eldest sister next time!" ”
"The eldest sister is not in good health now, I'm afraid I want us to accompany ......her here," He Wulang said quietly, "It's a pity that we don't fight ourselves." ”
…… Golangjun of the He family, are you sure that our third sister-in-law, who has only a miscarriage, how many 'spirits' of the He family are listening to you talk endlessly?!
Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie were speechless for a while, but they couldn't help but comfort: "Mrs. Jiang is gentle and amiable, I don't expect to blame the two of you like this, let's talk about it!" Grandmother asked us to accompany you to visit the third sister-in-law, and you were injured here! ”
"......" saw He Siniang and He Wulang glance at each other, and suddenly said in unison, "Since the four of us are all going to be punished, why don't we settle each other's accounts?" ”
Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie were stunned for a moment and said, "What? ”
He Wulang said quickly: "Anyway, isn't the screen removed now?" The ground has also been cleaned, so it's better to find a screen to put it, let's treat it as if there is no such thing! The elders are here, Fourth Sister, you shrank your hand in your sleeve, is anyone still holding your hand to see if you can't do it? As for me...... I'll 'rub' it will be fine! ”
He Siniang also agreed with her face, nodded vigorously and said: "That screen, go back and ask the eldest sister to give us a discount, the eldest sister has always loved us the most!" ”
Zhuo's 'jade' mother's face was extremely colorful, and she was about to speak, but He Siniang's eyes turned red again, and she said, "This Sister Zhuo, don't you like us coming to the Hou Mansion?" ”
Next to him, He Wulang also said aggrievedly: "Our family's 'door' is not high......"
"The sister of the Hou Mansion is self-defeating to me, it seems that I am too Meng's 'wave'." When He Siniang heard this, she was about to cry, "Can this sister still shout?" ”
“…… Apricots! Zhuo Zhaojie saw Zhuo 'jade' Niang's 'desire' speechless appearance, secretly spit out a mouthful of blood, and raised his voice, "Nothing happened here today, but we saw that the original screen from yesterday was not good-looking, and we changed another one, you know?" ”
Although she said this to Ah Xing, people inside and outside heard it from the head and feet, where did they not know the meaning of the words?
At that moment, someone in the room told He's 'privately' that He's was angry and funny, and hurriedly sent someone out to call Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie to the 'door', and said: "The two sisters don't pay attention to them, these two people are the most wordy, I have to hide when I don't go out of the cabinet, I'll talk to my mother about this later, I can't blame the two sisters, it's their own carelessness!" ”
He Siniang and He Wulang were standing behind Zhuo Zhaojie on tiptoe and eavesdropping, and when they heard this, He Wulang jumped to his feet and said, "Eldest sister, we are compatriots of the same mother, how can you not help us?" ”
"Eldest sister, this will be too wordy for us, aren't we looking at the eldest sister, you are lying on the couch and being bored, so you can tell the eldest sister something interesting?" He Siniang also felt very aggrieved.
"We're all in a lot of hard work!"
"The eldest sister doesn't care about us since she left the cabinet...... No, our eldest sister was already out of the cabinet after we were born......"
"So it's no wonder that the eldest sister doesn't hurt us......"
"Nor do I think of ...... for the sake of my mother's compatriots"
"Pity us for all the way ...... Oh, I got up early and came to visit my eldest sister in the dark, and I didn't want my eldest sister to do this to us! ”
"Big Sister ......"
"Let's ......"
“…… Grievances ......"
He sighed and said to Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie: "See? As soon as you ignore them, this thing will go on and on! ”
Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie tried their best not to laugh out loud, He Siniang and He Wulang didn't care about being ridiculed, they only pestered: "Good sister help us, my mother was ruthless last time, saying that we will cause trouble again, and we will not be allowed to go out with her in the future, eldest sister, you know that we love to be the most lively, stay at home all day except to accompany our grandmother and be bored, where can people live that day!" ”
"You're talking nonsense again!" Hearst said with a straight face.
Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie laughed when they heard this, but they felt that He Siniang and He Wulang, the two sisters and brothers, were really wonderful people - although they were noisy and a little cunning, they were not annoying, they were really ancient 'spirits' and weird, so they helped to intercede: "The third sister-in-law helps, just hide the matter, and the left and right are just a screen...... Siniang and Wulang are still injured, this matter is also ours, the third sister-in-law should even hurt us with Siniang and Wulang, and we will make up for it together! ”
He Siniang and He Wulang hurriedly said: "You know best how many eldest sisters we have in the month, we only get ten taels of silver a month, at least three or five taels are left for us, even if we can only pay it back slowly." ”
Zhuo 'Yu' Niang laughed out loud, pointed at Zhuo Zhaojie with his hand and said: "Don't worry about it, I don't want to pay a penny, just ask our Qi Niang to pay it back!" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie smiled and said, "Okay, I'll just pay it back." "Although the screen that was broken before is also worth 100 gold, but Zhuo Zhaojie has a lot of 'private' savings in hand, not to mention the 20,000 taels of silver tickets that Ban insisted on her to leave and even You's don't necessarily know, just Zhuo Zhaojie's 'private' room saved over the years, it is not difficult to get a hundred gold, and she has no expenses at home at all, especially at this moment to reconcile with Zhuo 'Yu' Niang, she doesn't want to sweep Zhuo 'Yu' Niang's face like this.
He scolded with a smile: "Do you want to scold your sister-in-law for being mean?" You all said that there is only a screen, but it is difficult for my sister-in-law to have no stomach at all? ”
"Third sister-in-law, don't shirk." Zhuo 'Yu' Niang said, "Qi Niang, she is now hurt by the fourth aunt as an eyeball, you should pay her back, will the money for this screen be her?" It must be the fourth aunt who does it for you...... Hey! ”
Zhuo Zhaojie smiled and said: "Ah, I don't want my mother to come out for me, we 'made' the things that were broken, and I will pay my sister-in-law about the same!" Besides, don't tell the elders, lest we be told that the matter of asking the mother to compensate for the screen will be leaked? Between the words, someone else carried the screen in and put it up, everyone got out of the way and let the screen in, Zhuo Zhaojie looked at it and said, "It's this kind of eight-character bottom red sandalwood hollow carved figure inlaid glass and mica screen!" I'll go to the city another day! ”
Zhuo 'Yu' said: "Hey, this screen can get 100 gold, I can't see that you are a rich man!" ”
"When I was at my grandmother's house, I didn't have much to spend." Zhuo Zhaojie did not hide it, and said with a smile, "It is to collect the reward money given by the elders during the New Year's Festival, and the compensation screen is just a trivial matter." ”
"Sister Zhuo Qi, you are so amazing!" He Siniang exclaimed, "You can actually survive?" The monthly money we only received this month was 'spent' in a turn! ”
He Wulang looked at Zhuo Zhaojie with bright eyes, and said sweetly: "Sister Zhuo Qi, have you ever promised others?" If not, what do you think of me? Give me one or two hundred gold a month, no, dozens of gold, I will be a good husband obediently! Absolutely do not accept concubines, do not keep maids, do not secretly drink, 'touch' and 'sex', go to the green house and hold the little lady! Don't look at me now, I'm not very handsome, I've heard people say that ordinary people when they were young, but when they grow up, they are surprisingly handsome......"
Before he finished speaking, He's couldn't cry or laugh, Zhuo 'Yu' Niang and Zhuo Zhaojie had already laughed and bent over, and the red-faced He Siniang grabbed his ear and shouted: "Do you dare to fight!" A manly man, he plans to marry a little lady with a rich dowry all day long, are you ashamed?! ”
He Wulang was so squeezed by her that he screamed, but when he heard this, he was not to be outdone, and said, "That's better than you!" The dowry is huge, so I can still eat and drink spicy food! Which is like you, you will judge people by their appearance in the future, the last time I met the Hou Shizi of Yongcheng on the road, I didn't even go home, and I called the coachman to follow the prince half a street, just to see a few more glances at your so-called beautiful young man, look at him a few more times and have no money to take, and finally called the 'waiter' guard around the prince thought that we were plotting wrong, and stopped us in the alley for interrogation for a long time, and finally 'kindly' sent us home to confirm the mansion! It made me frightened all the way, for fear that the silver in my arms would be led by those 'squires' guards! ”
"Phew! As far as your few taels of scattered silver are concerned, can the people around the prince see it! He Siniang was exposed by him, and shouted angrily!
He Wulang said: "How do you know that they don't look down on them? Can't you buy anything with broken silver? Your favorite candy man, Bi Luo, and Shi Guo, those few taels of silver are enough to buy a lot! Don't the 'squires' eat anymore? ”
"The son of the world is so handsome, it is naturally impossible for the people around him to be greedy for money!" He Siniang said resolutely.
He Wulang snorted: "You think he's handsome!" No matter how handsome he is, he can be more handsome than the white 'flower' and 'flower' of snow and 'flower' silver?! ”
"Cheesy!" He Siniang pulled his ears hard, "Those copper smells are also worthy of being compared with the Hou Shizi of Yongcheng?" Can the prince's handsome eyebrows and beautiful eyes be bought with silver? ”
"I heard that everyone said that the prince was not a good person, and the prince of Qin had all broken his 'legs'!" He Goro screamed in pain, "Just chase him and see, when he breaks your 'leg', you know the end!" At least the silver won't jump up and hit you! ”
He Siniang said angrily: "The silver won't jump up and hit you - it doesn't hurt if the silver hits you on the head?!" The Hou Shizi of Yongcheng is so handsome, even if he breaks the 'legs' of others, there must be a reason! Most of them are done by others who can't help but fight! Otherwise, Hou Shizi of Yongcheng saw more people on the street, why didn't he beat others and beat the prince of Qin!! Perhaps, the one who is really wronged is the Hou Shizi of Yongcheng!! ”
"If I get hurt in the head by the silver, I will be willing to ......"
Although Zhuo 'Yu' Niang was born and raised in Chang'an and is very familiar with the official language, she didn't find a chance to 'interject' a few times, and she had the intention to forcibly interrupt, but she was directly ignored by the bickering sister and brother - until the He family couldn't listen to it, and raised his hand and smashed an ornament to the 'door', so He Wulang temporarily shut up and shouted: "Don't talk about the affairs of your family!" ”
…… Zhuo 'Yu' Niang wiped her cold sweat and quickly changed the topic: "The elders must be coming over soon, let's not disturb the third sister-in-law's rest, let's go to the garden first!" ”
