Chapter 5 Knowing how to forge ahead
Just then, an old woman came out of the room.
"Who is crying, making trouble, and hanging yourself in my house? Your daughter was raised for nothing? I think your son is feeding for nothing! ”
The old woman glared at Han Qing fiercely and walked in front of Han Mu.
"In-laws, are you here to ask my iron bull to make up for you again? Tie Niu's silver is not blown by the wind, but your Han boy, in addition to drinking flower wine, he has not won any fame. ”
After listening to her in-laws' words, Han's mother's face turned blue and red for a while, and her son was indeed a little angry.
"I'm a countryman, I only know that the daughter who marries out is the water that is spilled, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for you to run to your daughter's house every day to borrow money!"
Mother Han wanted to say something, looked at the old woman's face, and swallowed it hard in her stomach.
Liu Dazhu's face was also dark, and he shouted at his wife:
"Why don't you hurry up and make lunch, I'll give your mother a few more money later."
Han Qing looked at her sister with tears in the corners of her eyes, stunned in place, and felt very uncomfortable.
Han Yurou walked quickly into the kitchen, leaving only a lament.
"Mother, it's not easy for my brother-in-law's house, let's go back!"
Han Qing knew that her brother-in-law and sister's family were not having an easy time, and she didn't want to embarrass them.
Han's mother sighed, nodded, and followed her son in the direction of home.
Walking on the country road, there are already people in the fields who have started to work on the farm.
Although there is a slight chill in early spring, it is still the season for the grass to grow and the warbler to fly.
"Qing'er, there is nothing my mother can do, your sister's family is not a rich family, you have to be more considerate of her."
Listening to Han's mother's words, Han Qing felt some guilt in her heart.
The reason why the Han family has become what it is now is because of him.
Han Qing let out a long sigh, preparing to take all the old books in the study tomorrow and sell them, so as to supplement the family.
Just when Han Qing was melancholy, Jiang Xiuxiu called him to eat.
There was a little bit of meat foam for dinner, and Han Mu and Jiang Xiuxiu put all the meat foam into Han Qing's bowl.
"Xianggong, there is only this meat at home, tomorrow I will take on some more work and earn a little more silver."
Looking at Jiang Xiuxiu's guilty expression, Han Qing's heart warmed.
Thinking that Han Qing used to treat her lady like that in the past, but Jiang Xiuxiu thought about him first whenever she had a bite of meat.
This affection moved Han Qing a little.
He divided the meat foam in his bowl into three portions, although one person could only eat one bite.
But Han Qing still felt very happy.
"Let's eat together!"
"Qing'er, you want to eat more good things when you are taking the imperial examination, I won't eat it, you and Xiuxiu will eat." Han Mu said.
Jiang Xiuxiu also wanted to hand the meat foam in the bowl to Han Qing's bowl.
"I don't eat either, I don't like meat."
Han Qing pressed her hand.
"Mother, the imperial examination is one thing, as the so-called man starts a family, how can he start a career before he gets married? Now I have a mother and a mother, and it is called a real home. ”
Listening to Han Qing's words, Jiang Xiuxiu trembled!
Since marrying into the Han family, his father-in-law has never looked at him directly, let alone sleeping in the marriage room.
Jiang Xiuxiu has always been innocent, and she doesn't know who to talk to when she keeps the empty room like this.
At first, Jiang Xiuxiu didn't care, but later her husband would rather go to the Drunken Red Mansion than come to his room.
It also made her feel inferior.
But at this moment, Han Qing's words, her heart couldn't help but warm, this feeling of being cared for by others had not been experienced by him for many years.
Jiang Xiuxiu rubbed her hands at a loss.
"Mother, look at Xiuxiu's thin body now, how can she give birth to a boy for our Han family, you should take care of her body now!"
Han Mu thought about it again and again, and it seemed that this was the case.
Xiuxiu is indeed much thinner than when she first came, and such a body must not be able to give birth to a big fat grandson for herself.
After eating, Jiang Xiuxiu was about to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but was stopped by Han Qing.
"Let me do this kind of thing, you will touch the silk in the future, and if your fingers are not smooth, I am afraid that you will lose money."
Jiang Xiuxiu's figure froze in place instantly, what's wrong with her father-in-law?
Why are you so kind to yourself today? So much about yourself!
"Xianggong, you are a scholar, how can you do such rough work, or I'll come!" Jiang Xiuxiu is still unwilling, this kind of foul language has always been done by her.
Han Qing put her lady aside and washed the dishes and chopsticks by herself.
Jiang Xiuxiu stood behind Han Qing, looking at Han Qing who was squatting on the ground washing dishes and chopsticks, and had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
The moon shadow shone on the two of them, and they had the feeling of being talented and beautiful.
After cleaning up, the two of them went back to the house, and Han Qing suddenly remembered the fabric he bought.
"Lady ......"
Who knew that he had just shouted Jiang Xiuxiu, and the other party was so excited that he almost knelt down.
Fortunately, Han Qing reacted quickly and hugged the other party.
"Did I scare you?"
Jiang Xiuxiu's face flushed, and she shook her head slightly, looking even more shy and lovely under the light of the candlelight.
Han Qing looked at Jiang Xiuxiu, her heart fluttered for a while, she didn't want such a beautiful little lady at home, she had to go to the Drunken Red Mansion to find those vulgar fans.
It's stupid enough.
Something moved in his arms, and Han Qing realized that he was still holding on to Jiang Xiuxiu and didn't let go.
Han Qing hurriedly let go of her hand, Jiang Xiuxiu blushed, lowered her head and ran into the bedroom.
Late at night, Han Qing, who had no intention of sleeping, simply sorted out his script in the study.
Tomorrow I will exchange these things for some silver, so that I can solve my urgent needs.
The next township test will be a year later, and most of these things are scripts, so it's not a pity to sell them.
After cleaning up these things, I found that the light was still on in the bedroom.
Han Qing walked in slowly, only to see that Jiang Xiuxiu had fallen asleep, and there was still the purple gauze with patches on the table.
Han Qing grabbed his clothes and looked at them carefully, but saw that there were dots of blood on his clothes.
This should be the mark that Jiang Xiuxiu accidentally pricked her hand with a needle, Han Qing sighed, walked to the side of the bed and was just about to sit down.
I only felt the body of the woman next to me tremble slightly, and there was a stiffness that wanted to escape.
Han Qing didn't make any moves, just lightly covered Jiang Xiuxiu with a quilt.
"Since you don't want to do it now, then I won't force you, and when you are completely willing, and your heart is willing to accept to be with me, I will come to this house to sleep again."
He seemed to say this to himself, and it seemed to be said to Jiang Xiuxiu.
It seems that I should go back to the study and sleep today.
Han Qing yawned, after a busy day, he was a little tired.
There are big things to do tomorrow, so I won't toss it today.
Only Jiang Xiuxiu, who was alone in the room, was left thinking nonsense.
