Su Shi sat in front of the window, looking at the sky outside in a daze.

"Alas, the matter has come to this, and my wife should not think so much." Aunt Sang was also uncomfortable on the side, she persuaded Su Shi to think twice, but Su Shi didn't listen, they all saw how angry Qin Xun was.

"Mother!" The door was pushed open, Qin Xun walked in, Aunt Sang looked at Qin Xun, and pointed at the motionless Su Shi again, hoping that Qin Xun would accompany her.

Qin Xun walked over and said to Aunt Sang, "Aunt Sang, please go downstairs and order a few dishes and bring them up to eat in the house." ”

Aunt Sang stood up and asked again, "What about them?" ”

"They're out, leave them alone."

After Aunt Sang left, Qin Xun sat beside Su Shi, followed her mother's gaze and looked out the window, the originally sunny sky was drizzling, and the branches of the old trees outside the window smoked a little green shoots, and spring quietly climbed up the branches.

Qin Xun said: "Mother, the sting is coming, shouldn't our family prepare lime, wormwood and other things?" Every year, my mother and Aunt Sang prepare early, otherwise snakes, insects, rats and ants will be everywhere, and my daughter won't know what to do. ”

Su Shi twisted his stiff neck and looked at his daughter: "In the future, you have to learn to do this, you are already a wife, and you can't always count on your mother." ”

"Then I have to teach my mother slowly, and I can't let go until I learn my mother, right?" Qin Xun looked at Su Shi with a smile, his gaze stayed on his mother's bare head for a moment, and then looked away at his mother's eyes.

Su Shi sighed heavily and said, "When my daughter is older, she always has to leave her mother." In the future, if you have your own children and your own home, your mother will pray for you in Shuiyue Nunnery and bless my son with a smooth life. ”

"Mother, have you ever been on a big boat? It's the kind of big ship that is tall and big, with several floors. Qin Xun ignored Su's words and suddenly asked, Su shook his head.

Qin Xun asked again: "Has my mother ever gone to the play?" It is not a banquet held by the landlord in the village or a stage set up on the street or roadside during the New Year's Festival, but a leisurely sitting under the stage, drinking fragrant tea, eating tea fruits and snacks, and you can order your favorite drama to listen to. ”

Su Shi also shook his head.

"Did my mother go to the green in March? Have you ever been boating in June to pick lotus flowers? Have you ever seen a mountain full of red maples in October? Have you ever seen the red plum under the snow in winter? ”

Su Shi shook his head. When she was a child, she worked day and night, and her world was only the fields, the family's kitchen, and the livestock. At the age of sixteen, she was sold to Qin Xiongfei to make an outer room, but she didn't need to work, but she didn't dare to go out and walk around at will, for fear of causing gossip, and even more afraid of pointing fingers, whispering, and even laughing loudly from the people behind her. She trapped herself in that small courtyard in Fushui Town for more than ten years.

What had she seen? What has she eaten? If you want to say that you have seen through Hongchen and become a monk, Su has never even seen Hongchen, how can you see through it?

"Mother, you are free, don't be afraid of the Su family, let alone Qin Xiongfei, let's move to live in the county, no one here recognizes you, where can you go where you want? Do whatever you want? My daughter will let her mother live a good life in the future, and my mother will not leave home, okay? Qin Xun didn't pray, nor did he get angry, but just said very calmly.

Su Shi suddenly covered his face and cried, this was the first time Qin Xun had seen Su Shi crying so sadly, so distressing.

Qin Xun stood up, walked behind Su Shi, bent down and hugged his mother hard.

The complaints about her mother's identity that Qin Xun had in her heart also dissipated.

After lunch, Su and Aunt Sang still went back to Shuiyue Nunnery, after all, they begged the owner of Shuiyue Nunnery to shave their degrees, and they had to go back to have an explanation anyway, not to mention, now that Qin Xun has a lot of things, it is better and safer for Su to live in Shuiyue Nunnery.

The mother and daughter said that when everything settled down, they would go to pick up the Su family.

It was very easy for Xiao Chenyu to go to the Yamen to cancel the slavery of the Su family, after all, the formalities were complete.

After the matter was completed, Xiao Chenyu asked the clerk in a low voice: "I saw a few good people on the street today, my family wants a few servants to do things, I don't know if the official can make it convenient, I will pay for two people." ”

The little official did not raise his head and said: "Go and go, they will be in the streets for three days, not for an hour, the day after tomorrow you will wait at the entrance of the West Market, you will have to pull it and send it to buy, as long as the silver is ready, you can do a few." ”

Xiao Chenyu frowned slightly, then let go again, still smiling, leaned over and took a piece of silver horn from his cuff and handed it over, and said in a low voice: "I can't hide it, my father-in-law is Master Qin who drank with the county magistrate yesterday, and he fell in love with one of the women, but this matter is not publicized, and I, the junior, should take the initiative to think about the elders, right?" ”

The son-in-law makes a woman for the father-in-law, which is funny, but it is not without such a thing, if the son-in-law does not make it, he wants to climb the Yue's family, not to mention women, and he can do more excessive things.

The little official happened to know about the county order last night's treat, and he also knew that the person who came was the fourth master of the Qin family in Fucheng. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Chenyu, only to see that this person had clear eyebrows and a smile, but he didn't look like a flatterer.

However, he understands the principle that people should not be disfigured.

But he wouldn't believe Xiao Chenyu's words, and asked, "What's your name?" How to prove that you are Master Qin's son-in-law? ”

"My name is Xiao Chenyu, and now I am studying in the county, and the official knows that I just married a wife, the daughter of Master Qin. I was with my father-in-law at noon today, and as soon as I saw my father-in-law away, I came to do what my father-in-law had explained. ”

The little official couldn't eat the words of the person in front of him, but caution was his consistent principle, so he asked Xiao Chenyu to wait, and he went to the backyard to ask the county master's master.

The master happened to be drinking tea with the county master, and after listening to the report of the little official, the two looked at each other, and the master asked: "Someone said his name is Xiao Chenyu?" ”

The officer replied, "Yes!" said that he was studying in the county. ”

The county magistrate shook his head and sneered: "Another person who climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix, married the daughter of Master Qin's outer room, and also considers himself a son-in-law, and wants to send a woman to please his father-in-law, but he is also a person who knows how to please and sell well." ”

The master pondered for a moment and asked, "Then does the master want to give someone to him?" ”

"Give, why don't you give? If we don't give it, it will reach the ears of Master Qin in the future, that is, we are unwilling to give him face, what do we do to make him unhappy for the sake of the two servants? After a pause, he shook his head and sighed: "This Xiao Chenyu can please his father-in-law so disregard for his face, but he is also a character, I can't say that I will be able to get ahead in the future, we are new to the city, just make friends, and we don't have to set up too many opponents." ”

The master also agreed, they had only been here for a short time, and they had taken the second commander of the county government together with his subordinates, and it was better to keep a low profile now.

So, Xiao Chenyu was courteously welcomed into the county government prison by the officials.
