Chapter 196: On the Dinner Table

The little girl was so anxious that her face turned red, and she wanted to remind her wife that the woman was plotting against her, but she didn't seem to want to say those words that seduced her and polluted her ears, and she wanted to chop up all the green bricks under her feet for a while.

Caiyun was a little more delicate, glanced at the courtyard and saw that there was no one in the yard, then motioned to her sister to be quiet, and then said softly, "Madam, Caiyue and I don't know the name Qiao'er, and we shouldn't have talked much, but at the beginning, our stepmother was also commensurate with my mother and sisters, very close, and treated us very well." Later, my mother was gone, and she changed her face when she got married. My sister and I both felt that Qiao'er shouldn't have called Mrs. 'sister', because she was afraid that she also had bad intentions..."

"It's not just a bad idea, at the beginning, when Erniang talked to her father, she was also so pitiful, and her father always told her mother that she was pitiful, and her mother shed tears behind her back..."

Rui Xue sighed, she originally thought that these two girls were different from ordinary people's intelligence, and she saw Qiao'er's "thoughts", but she didn't expect them to experience it herself, no wonder the words were so intense, she reached out and took them to the front, took out the pat, wiped their tears one by one, and said with a smile, "Okay, how old are the girls, and they still shed tears at every turn, and they are not productive." Since you think Qiao'er is not a good woman, don't let her go into the backyard in the future. However, she hasn't done anything out of the ordinary now, everything is our guess, and we have to be careful with our words. ”

"Yes, ma'am, we know." Caiyun Caiyue was really afraid that Qiao'er would snatch her husband away like Erniang, and they didn't want to treat the kind-hearted lady and end up with hatred like her mother.

Rui Xue got up and went into the house to change into an ordinary dress, took off the hairpin ring, went down to the kitchen and removed the lid of the casserole, and saw that the soup was just right, so she put it down, then washed and cut it, and then opened two cold and two hot four side dishes, and baked seven or eight vegetable cakes, and then washed her hands, so that Caiyun went to the front yard to call everyone back for dinner.

While Caiyue was busy picking up dishes and chopsticks on the tray, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she leaned over to Rui Xue and whispered, "Madam, can't you find a way to get that person away?" ”

Rui Xue knocked her head funny, and said angrily, "If you don't study well at a young age, why do you think about conspiracies?" ”

Caiyue rubbed her head and said aggrievedly, "Madam, I'm afraid that Mr. will really be snatched away by that bad woman, otherwise, Madame will wake up with Mr...."

Rui Xue was serving the dishes, and then said with a faint smile, "Men have self-esteem, some things are good to understand, and it is wrong to say too much." Besides, if you want to go, no one will take it, and if you don't want to go, no one will rob it. ”

Caiyue was dizzy by this bunch of "go" and "don't go", and vaguely understood that Mrs. was trusting Mr., so she stopped talking.

After a while, Zhao Fengnian and Amber came in from the front yard one after another, and Wu Yu soon came back from the East Garden sweating profusely, and the family sat around, laughing and talking, and eating lunch.

Rui Xue gave the soup to Wu Yu, and when she saw that he was eating quickly and urgently, she said angrily, "No one is robbing you anymore, what are you doing in such a hurry?" I'm going to take a nap for a while, so I don't have to fall asleep in class in the afternoon, I'm going to find a time to ask Mr. Yan these days, if you are tired in your homework, be careful that I knock on your ring ruler. ”

Wu Yu immediately made a bitter face, flattered his sister with a piece of gherkin, and said with a smile, "Sister, I didn't fall behind in my homework, and Mr. Yan praised me yesterday." ”

Amber spit out a small bone on the side, and said coldly, "I play chess with Mr. Yan, but he said that a certain student is proud and untaught, and he only compares to practicing martial arts. ”

Rui Xue immediately put down her chopsticks, stared at Wu Yu sternly, and asked, "Brother Yu, do you have anything to say?" ”

Wu Yu glared at Amber who deliberately revealed the bottom hatefully, and defended in a low voice, "Sister, I have read all those books that Mr. taught. ”

"You want to say that Mr. Yan is not knowledgeable enough to teach you, right?" Rui Xue is really angry, although she also knows that Wu Yu's intelligence is beyond that of children of the same age, but she doesn't want to see him look like this, you know, there must be my teacher in the threesome, no matter how bad Mr. Yan is, there must be something smarter than him.

Zhao Fengnian knew most in his heart that his wife loved his younger brother and had never participated in the quarrels between their sisters and brothers, but he was afraid that his wife would be angry and hurt his body, so he had to persuade, "Brother Yu is still young, you can persuade well, don't be angry." ”

While drinking the pork rib soup with relish, Amber sneered, "Mr. Yan's talent can be called a national scholar, at least my old man looks at him more secure than those county officials and city lords, don't teach you this lazy boy, even being a prince and a prince is more than enough." ”

Although Wu Yu quarrels with Amber a lot on weekdays, as if he doesn't have the slightest respect for the elderly, he is very aware of the wisdom of this old man in his heart, and he has always instructed him to practice those fatal killing moves lightly, but he never asks him whose life he is going to end after learning these things, as if those old eyes can see through everything in the world with just a light sweep, so when he heard him say this at this time, his heart moved, "Is this true?" Does Mr. Yan really have the talent to govern the country? ”

It's a pity that Amber didn't bother to say anything more, lowered his head and continued to drink soup and eat vegetables leisurely, but Rui Xue slapped his younger brother on the back and reprimanded, "Even if Mr. Yan doesn't have the talent to govern the country, it is enough to teach you, give me a good study in the future, it is a martial artist who can only use a knife, and you must always be a general practitioner in both civil and military affairs." ”

Wu Yu responded, he didn't know what he was thinking, he lowered his head and continued to eat, occasionally wandering, only pouring rice into his mouth, Rui Xue was helpless, he felt sorry for him in the end, and put some dishes into his bowl from time to time.

After the meal was over, everyone dispersed, and Rui Xue taught Caiyun Caiyue the word again, and drove them to practice, and then went into the house to take a nap.

Zhao Fengnian laid out the mat with his own hands, helped her lie down, and then held a book and guarded the side, seeing her slightly closed eyes and eyelashes trembling slightly, guessing that she must not have slept solidly, she wanted to say something, but she didn't feel good to speak, so she held back a sentence for a while, "Well, if any of the people in the workshop are not satisfied, the trial period is over, so I will be dismissed." ”

Rui Xue answered lightly, shook his hand, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "What, afraid that I will be angry?" I was stuck at home all day, and I finally encountered an interesting thing, how could I throw it away easily? ”

Zhao Fengnian smiled bitterly, closed the book, and gently lay down beside her, sniffing the faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers in his wife's hair, "Women in the world, except for you, are not in my eyes." ”

Rui Xue turned around and leaned on his arms, remembering the days when it was a luxury to eat a piece of meat when she was poor, she couldn't help but complain, "It's still good when I was poor, everyone said that I want to be a widow, but it's too late to pity me, where will I become a fly and pounce on you?" ”

"Then let's give away the workshop and the shop, shall we?" Zhao Fengnian didn't like his wife to describe him as a rotten egg with flies, and said deliberately, and he was hit twice on the waist, Rui Xue said angrily, "You dare, it's all my hard work, and I still expect to be my son's wife in the future." ”

Zhao Fengnian liked her anger the most, and hurriedly smiled, "Okay, don't send it, keep it for you as a private house, my son's family business, I will earn it back." ”

"That's pretty much it, the business of the new shop is better these days, and I'll go into the city tomorrow to have a look."

"Okay, let's get up early and leave, it's too hot after noon. It's time to settle the bill at the restaurant, and I'm going to take a walk. ”

"Also, I'm going to see the docks too..."The husband and wife talked in a low voice, and gradually hugged each other and fell asleep.

Besides, Qian Heitan could go back to the workshop when he heard it, and he was so happy that he jumped three feet high, Zhang Dahe still wanted to ask a few words, but seeing that the corners of his mouth were about to grin to the root of his ears, he simply stopped talking, pointed to the original carriage, and asked him to pull it back to pick it up, and he would still be responsible for delivery in the future, Qian Heitan responded loudly.

Liu Qiniang was spinning around in her stove room, thinking about what to eat, when she heard the neighing of horses, ran out to take a look, and asked, "Where did this carriage come from?" ”

Qian Heitan unloaded the jujube red horse and came down, and while he was busy looking for a bucket brush and preparing to wash the car board, he replied, "The shopkeeper has accepted me into the workshop again, and this carriage is naturally from the workshop." ”

"What?" Liu Qiniang glared angrily, "When did you go to the Zhao family behind my back again?" Why don't you discuss it with me, and besides, open your mouth left and right once and get me in. As she spoke, she stepped forward to pinch Qian Heitan, but Qian Heitan dodged and said angrily, "You think the workshop belongs to our family, you can enter if you want, if it weren't for Brother Zhang and Brother Gao to help intercede, I wouldn't be able to go back." From now on, you can stay at home for me, cook and do laundry, and don't mess with me anymore. ”

"You, you actually say I'm causing trouble?" Liu Qiniang has been married for a few months, and it is the first time that she has heard Qian Heitan say such heavy words, and she is so angry that her lungs are fried, "Okay, you Qian Heitan, you just returned to the workshop, and you have a temper, and you dare to scold me, you wait, I want to go back and tell my brother." ”

Qian Heitan thought of a few big brothers and uncles, and couldn't help but shudder, but he still stiffened his neck and said, "You are my mother-in-law, why can't I say a few words to you?" ”

"Okay, okay, you wait." Liu Qiniang ran into the house like a gust of wind, packed up two clothes, found out the only dozens of copper coins left in the house, and went out to turn over Dongshan.

The Liu family was having lunch, their son and daughter-in-law, plus a few children, this one wanted cakes, and that one wanted vegetable soup, it was the time when it was lively, and suddenly saw Liu Qiniang crying and her eyes were red and swollen back, so she fried the pot.

Mrs. Liu took her daughter in her arms, shouted in her heart, and asked, "Qi Niang, what's wrong with you, who bullied you, let your brother go and vent your anger." ”

Liu Laosan, who was on the side, clenched his fists and said angrily, "That's it, with my brothers, no one should be afraid." ”

Old man Liu was a little more pressing, frowned and coughed, and said, "Let's stop a little first and listen to what Qi Niang has to say." ”

Liu Qiniang wiped her tears, and asked her to enter the workshop, but Qian Heitan was not allowed, but secretly went to plead, and said about going in by herself, and said at the end, "He actually scolded me when he opened his mouth and said that I would make trouble, if I ran slowly, maybe the fist would hit me." ”

"This is worth it, he actually dared to rebel?" Liu Laosi slapped the table, shaking the dishes and crackling, "My sister wants to enter the workshop, isn't it also to make money to support her family?" Besides, he promised to find a way to get us into the workshop, but now he has forgotten about it, we should let him have a good memory, so that he will not think that our old Liu family is a fool who is easy to bully. ”
