Shu didn't know who the Shao family was, and she didn't care. Seeing that there were guests coming from Mrs. Xuanping's side, she had to say goodbye and leave after eating.

Mrs. Xuanping also knew that Xia Jin's great kindness to the Shao family could not be repaid with a fluttering "thank you". Even if the people of the Shao family come back, they have to freshen up first, and then bring gifts and come to the door to thank them, so as to show respect. In the future, it is right to treat the Xia family as a relative. So she didn't keep it, and asked Xiao and Cen Ziman to send Shu to the gate and meet Xia Zhengqian and Xia Qi.

"Mother, I'll send Mrs. Xia and Ah Jin over." Cen Ziman was reluctant to part with Xia Jin, and whispered to Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi glared at her, turned his head and smiled at Shu Shi, "We won't send more." When you settle down tomorrow, we'll visit you at home. ”

After seeing the carriage of the Xia family leave, she had no time to reprimand her daughter: "Your family affairs, our two families have agreed, just wait for the auspicious day to give the dowry." At this time, you didn't say to avoid suspicion, but also went to Xia's house together. Aren't you afraid that others will chew on the root of your tongue? ”

Cen Ziman pouted: "Even if I don't do anything, there are no rumors outside?" I've lived with me for so long, I'm used to being with her. When she left, my heart was empty, and it was boring to be alone. ”

Xiao Shi glanced at his daughter, and there seemed to be a smile on his face: "Why don't I marry you soon, and you will live in another house with her in the future?" ”

Two red clouds flew on Cen Ziman's face, and he stomped his feet and said, "Ah, people are telling you serious things, why are you making fun of others!" So saying, he turned and ran as fast as he could.

"Alas, the woman is not staying." Shaw sighed slowly in the back.

Mama Zhao, who was following her, answered playfully: "It's also the girl who chose a good family, even if she gets married, Mrs. doesn't have to worry." The wife of the Xia family is extremely kind at first glance; The sister-in-law is as good as a sister to the girl; Xia Gongzi is also a talent. He has a gentle temperament and is very good to girls. When a girl gets married, it must be similar to that in her mother's family. ”

Xiao Shi loves to listen to these words very much: "When I saw the Xia family and his wife today, I have always felt in my heart that Sister Man is blessed. The Peng family is a big family, and it is still a scholarly family, and it is the most pedantic and rules-talking. Sister Man's temperament is both straight and simple, and she went to Peng's house. I don't know how to suffer in secret. The Xia family has a simple population. The relationship is harmonious, and it is no more suitable for Sister Man. She's a blessing in disguise. ”

"yes, yes. Mrs. Xia spoke softly. He was very kind to all of us. With such a mother-in-law, the girl is just one more person to love......" These housekeepers flattered all the way and accompanied Xiao Shi into the second gate.

Calamus and mint came with Shushi. Not only the two of them, but also their families. Previously, Xia Jin was busy talking to his parents. was busy accompanying his mother and Mrs. Xuanping to see the old lady until she got into the carriage. I had time to talk to the two maids.

"Girl, this is a letter from Luo Gongzi's slave maid." Seeing that there was no one else in the carriage except Xia Jin and Mint, Calamus took out a letter from her bosom. Stuffed to Xia Jin.

Xia Jin was stunned for a moment, then took the letter and opened it, unfolding a piece of stationery inside.

"Jin'er Huijian: I suddenly heard that you went to Beijing. A thunderbolt on a sunny day, like a lost soul. Chaos for a few days. In the end, it was decided to go to the border to join the army. If I return victorious, I may be able to fulfill my wish and have a day of reunion with you. Hope for goodness, take care of yourself, and pray for what you want. Qian paused in the lamp. ”

The letter was written very short and few words. There is no love in it, and there is no sea vow. But Xia Jin read Luo Qian's helplessness hidden behind these dozen words.

He wrote this letter after she went to Beijing. At that time, Mrs. Luo had already set a daughter of the Zheng family for him. As a man who already has a fiancée, he can no longer confide in her lovesickness, nor can he make a covenant with her to wait for him to return. So I can only write these words to convey the meaning hidden deep in his heart.

She sighed deeply, slowly tore the letter into several strips, put it in an envelope, handed it to Calamus, and said, "Burn it in a moment." ”

Calamus was stunned by her behavior, and stuttered: "Auntie, girl, why, why did you tear it?" ”

"Why are you keeping it? Being found out is another trouble. Xia Jin said lightly.

Calamus opened her mouth to say something, but finally found herself speechless.

Isn't it? Xia Jin is an unmarried young girl with a letter from a man who is not related by blood, and the language in the letter is ambiguous, what is the matter? If she is known, will she still have a reputation? Don't say that it is still unknown whether Luo Qian can come back to marry his own girl, even if they can really become married, this kind of private giving and receiving behavior is also a handle, and if the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony in the future, maybe Mrs. Luo will use it to humiliate her own girl.

I really can't keep this letter.

"Girl, slave ......" Calamus lowered her head in shame, muttering at a loss for what to say.

"Alright, I don't blame you." Xia Jin patted her on the shoulder.

Of course she knew why Calamis was like this. The little girl is always full of fantasies and longings for love. Like this, a man's behavior of throwing away everything he has for the sake of a woman, killing enemies on the border, and gaining fame sounds so touching. Even if she was as cold as her, when she heard the news, wasn't she deeply moved, and she was hesitant and shaken for a while?

In Calamus's mind, she and Luo Qian have feelings, but they can't be together because of Mrs. Luo's opposition. Now that Luo Qian has gone to the battlefield for her, she will definitely be moved to tears and swear to wait for him to come back. Even if he can't come back, she will hold his tablet and marry him, this is the perfect love story, isn't it?

The prince and the prince are married, but this is not the end of the story, this is only the beginning of the story.

For her, perhaps for himself, Luo Qian went to the border in a rage. But under this time, will he regret it, will he feel guilty, will he worry about his mother's body? The answer is yes, right?

Since he felt guilty about his mother, when he became married to her, once he encountered a conflict between her and Mrs. Luo, he would definitely persuade her to be more patient and not worry about her elders, right? The reason is: he went to the battlefield for her, can't she endure more for him and tolerate his mother?

Bear with the little things. What about the big deal? What about one endure, two or three times?

Mrs. Luo is stubborn and confused.

Thinking about that image, she couldn't bear to look at it.

She lived again, not to be low-minded and compromised.

Unbridled and happy, happy and revenge, is her style.

To the end. is still the same sentence: she is to Luo Qian. At the beginning, he was just heartbeat, but he was not so deep that he couldn't extricate himself, and he couldn't do it.

Seeing that Calamus was still uneasy, she simply changed the subject: "That's right." Did Dong Yan come with you? ”

"Coming, coming." Calamus still couldn't speak, and after saying this, her face turned red.

"Ugh." Xia Jin was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the iris with a smile. "Could it be that when I wasn't in Linjiang, what happened to you and Dong Yan?"

Dong Yan and calamus? It's a good pair. Later, one will help her take care of her business outside. One to help her take care of the house, it couldn't be better.

Calamus's face was so red that it was dripping blood.

Seeing this, Mint smiled on the side: "It's not in Linjiang, but on the way to Beijing." Girl, you don't know. On the way, Dong Gongzi was sick, and Sister Calamus ......"

"Ah, no one treats you like a dumb person if you don't speak." Calamus didn't dare to do anything with Xia Jin. But he didn't care so much about mint, so he pounced on her and covered her mouth. The flush on his face spread to the roots of his ears.

Xia Jin had just been a little depressed because of Luo Qian's letter, and was dispelled out of the clouds by this news. She smiled on the side and said, "Calamus, if you are really interested in him, hurry up and beg your master and me." I'm in a good mood, and I might point you out to him. ”

"Girl, you're here to make fun of the slave too." Calamus has always been steady, but now she is stomped by Xia Jin, and she looks like a little daughter.

The three of them were laughing, the car window was knocked twice, and Xia Qi's voice sounded outside: "Sister, it's here." ”

Only then did everyone realize that the carriage had stopped at some point.

"Let's go, go home." Xia Jin got up and got out of the carriage first.

The calamus, who had always followed closely in the past, did not come down for a while, but rubbed in the car for a while, and then got out of the carriage. When I got out of the car, the flush on my face had not faded.

Dong Yan's voice sounded in the next moment: "Dong Yan greets the girl." ”

Xia Jin glanced at Calamus, saw that her head was about to lower to her chest, and then looked at Dong Yan After saluting, her eyes unconsciously glanced at Calamus, she was secretly happy in her heart, but her face did not show it at all, and said to Dong Yan: "I was in Cen Mansion just now, and I couldn't see you for the first time." I think you already know about Xu Yuanjing from your sister, right? ”

Knowing that Dong Yan also came with him, not long after Xia Zhengqian and Shu Shi entered the door, Xia Jin sent Dong Fang to meet Dong Yan and reunite their brother and sister.

As soon as Dong Yan heard this, he didn't care that this was the gate of the Xia family's new house, so he knelt down as soon as he lifted his placket, and kowtowed to Xia Jin three times: "The girl's great kindness, Dong Yan is unforgettable." Dong Yan has no ability, he only learned a little Tao Zhu Gong's skills, and he is willing to do his best for the girl for the rest of his life. ”

"Hurry up, please." Xia Jin signaled, and the manservant next to him hurriedly helped Dong Yan up.

Shu Shi walked over and said, "Let's go first." If you have anything to say, go in and talk about it. ”

Xia Jin saw that the Zheng family on the opposite side had someone probing his brain, and hurriedly said, "Let's go, go in first." ”

The family entered the door together.

Originally, Xia Jin was worried that the things at home were not complete, and he would have to work again after Shu's came. But I didn't want to go in and take a look, the bedding, tents, window screens, and tablecloths everywhere were all installed, and the vases, teapots, and teacups in the room, and the dishes, chopsticks, pots, pots, spoons, and pans in the kitchen were all missing. Even the multi-treasure grid in the study is full of furnishings, and the four treasures of the study, paperweight, and pen holder are all complete. If she hadn't come in to take a look at the furniture when she moved the furniture last night, she would never have imagined that these things were arranged by the people of the Cen Mansion one morning.

Shu Shi entered the door and was shocked by the area of the house, and when she entered the main courtyard, she saw that outside the house where she lived, there was a three-legged lion button entwined flower gilt copper cloisonné enamel smoker on the vermilion lacquer bar case in front of her, and next to it was an azure glaze dark engraved amphora. On the table of the Eight Immortals in rosewood below, there is a set of exquisite porcelain pots and cups with six-edged bottoms for the mouth of the blue ticket. The smoker is still faintly burning with light sandalwood.

"This is also a gift?" Her voice trembled slightly.

"No, this is sent by Mrs. Xuanping Hou and Mrs. Shizi, and arranged them one by one this morning." Xia Jin said, "This courtyard was also repaired by the Cen Mansion. It turned out that no one lived in it for a long time, and it was all deserted. After repairing, I went to buy furniture with my brother yesterday, and the small things, bedding, and tents everywhere are all from Cen Mansion. ”

"What's so embarrassing about that?" Shu Shi has always been unwilling to take advantage of small advantages, and when he heard this, he felt uncomfortable, and he was reluctant to blame his daughter and son, so he blamed himself, "We should call a few people to come first and help you decorate your home." It's all because the mother didn't think about things thoroughly, alas, she was so tired that the Cen family contributed and contributed. How can I repay this debt. ”

Xia Jin didn't care. She cured the emperor's illness, and Xuanping Houfu was the biggest winner. Besides, she is willing to speak for the Shao family, and it is also for the sake of Xuanping Houfu, although this is not clear, but everyone knows it in their hearts. As the saying goes, the problems that can be solved with money are not problems. With the wealth of Xuanping Houfu, it is not a matter at all to take two or three hundred taels of silver out to add something to the Xia family. It's only rare to find the heart of Mrs. Xuanping.

"In the future, when Aman marries in, you can be nicer to her. There is no need to worry about these money. She persuaded.

Seeing that Shu Shi was still a little uneasy, she said again: "Mother, Aman married his brother, and in the future, we will not be in contact with small families." Those noble ladies and ladies pay the most attention to face. Money is a vulgar thing in their eyes, a few taels, dozens of taels or even hundreds of taels of silver, and they really can't see it in their eyes. If you compare it too much, you will be very embarrassed, and you will not be able to get rid of the poor and sour family spirit by being laughed at. Now that we have money, you still have to marry the granddaughter of Xuanping Houfu as your daughter-in-law. In the future, we can be more generous, and what should we do in private, but we have to pretend that we don't care about it, and learn from them to pretend. ”

Shu Shi laughed when she said it, and reached out and twisted her daughter's cheek: "You narrow ghost, what words change when they reach your mouth." ”

Xia Zhengqian saw his wife talking and laughing with his daughter on the side, his son standing aside, and Yushu was in the wind, and he had only been seen for two months, and he had an indescribable noble atmosphere. He stroked his beard and smiled silently, with an indescribable joy in his heart.

Shu is the main mother, even if the journey is tiring, she will not rest. She had to assign yards to her subordinates and direct them to go out to buy, so that the family of a dozen or so people would have hot water and food to eat.

"Madam, the kitchen has a very complete set of dishes, chicken, duck and fish, all kinds of seasonal vegetables and vegetables, bird's nest, mushrooms and other dry goods. The dry firewood was also piled high enough to burn for a month. "The mother-in-law in charge of the kitchen came to report.

Shu was about to speak, when he heard the next person guarding the door come to say: "Master, wife, a few guests surnamed Shao have come to visit." (To be continued)
