Volume 1 Red Furnace Igniting Snow The Beginning of the Heart is Like a Rock Chapter 4 Housekeeping Skills

Sell flowers to offer your home.

The woman who opened the door was the daughter-in-law of Xianyuanshan, and when she heard that the young man called her by her name to find her father, she hurriedly said: "Son, please, father is taking a nap in the backyard." ”

All outsiders who came to him on his bus were not allowed to ask more, and they were directly invited to see him. Although the Li family has a lot of complaints about his father-in-law, he is not playful in such matters.

"Childe comes with me." led the brocade-clothed boy through the front hall to the backyard.

There is a pond in the middle of the backyard, where you can see the bottom, and there are a few black carp caught by the water. Carp, the boy has seen a lot, but it is rare to see something so black. Walking along the stone road leading to the wing room on the pond to the end of the wing room, I saw an old man under the eaves wearing a white linen robe, with his upper sleeves reaching his elbows, trouser legs reaching his knees, and a pair of straw sandals on his feet, resting on a rattan chair.

When he got closer, he said in a low voice: "Father, this son is looking for you." Xian Yuanshan opened his eyes slightly, waited to see the appearance of the young man clearly, hurriedly got up, and said: "It's Xiao Shizi, there is a loss of distance, there is a loss of distance, if you have something, I will go, where to work." ”

The boy said, "Do you recognize me?" ”

Xian Yuanshan sent his daughter-in-law to get some wine and food, and invited the young man into the house to sit down, and then said: "Xiao Shizi and the prince are very similar, how can the prince's dignity be recognized by the little old man, although I have not seen the little Shizi, but I know it at a glance." ”

The young man bowed his head and said in his heart: No wonder my brother asked me to come to this person, although I don't know what the relationship between this person and my father and brother is, I am very comfortable listening to this courtesy and talking, but I don't know how to do things.

Xian Yuanshan took the tea from his daughter-in-law, presented it with both hands, and then stood aside, the young man took the tea and said: "Brother is saluting in the ancestral hall, and he can't get out of his body, so I came here to tell you something." ”

"Xiao Shizi, but it doesn't hurt to say it, and he will definitely live up to his trust." Dedicated to the distant mountain road.

"During the day, I met a school girl with His Royal Highness, from apricot eyes, bay eyebrows, and a white embroidered ink skirt, do you know whose girl it is?" The young man took a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth and spit it back into the cup, and said slowly.

Listening to the apricot eyes and eyebrows, Xian Yuanshan already knew who he was talking about, and said busily: "I know, I know, what the son of the world said is the adopted daughter of the ancient family, called Qi Nu'an, and it is indeed out of the water spirit, I don't know what the son of the world commands?" ”

The young man said: "I bother the village chief to tell me something, His Highness lacks a servant girl, and I feel that this girl is barely qualified, you must know that being able to follow His Highness is a fish leaping into the dragon gate, even if it is only a maidservant, it is not something she can achieve in this life." ”

Xianyuan Mountain pandered: "That's nature. He added, "The old slave will do it as soon as possible." ”

When the young man heard Xianyuanshan's promise, he got up and said goodbye: "After it's done, send the people to Guzi Village." ”

Xian Yuanshan hurriedly said yes, and left the young man for dinner. The boy waved his hand and left.

After the young man left, Xianyuanshan sat on the rattan chair, his brows furrowed, and he played with the teapot in his hand.

Xian Li came in with fruits, and when he saw that the young man had left, he said, "Father, the person has already left?" ”

Xian Yuanshan nodded, and Xian Li saw that his father-in-law frowned, so he put down the fruit and asked, "Why is my father worried, I don't know if my daughter-in-law can solve my worries." Xian Yuanshan looked up at Xian Li, his daughter-in-law complained to him on weekdays, and his back was full of ridicule, why is this today?

With a slight groan, there is an answer, it must be the woman's short heart, the village woman has nothing to do all day, gathered in one place, and the other parents are the most proud, thinking of this, he said angrily: "You? I only know all day long' with the white woman, what can I solve, and tell me how His Royal Highness sees that Qi Nu'an wants to be accepted as a maid, how will he be treated? ”

Xian Li heard the first half of the sentence say this about her, at first she didn't like it, and when she heard the second half of the sentence, she was suddenly aroused by curiosity, covered her face with her hand and exclaimed: "Is it His Royal Highness?" ”

Xian Yuanshan nodded.

"That's a great thing, what's there to worry about." Without waiting for Xian Yuanshan to reply, she frowned and said, "But Gu Hao will definitely not respond, this person has a long worm drilling bamboo tube, which is smelly and hard." Xian Yuanshan interrupted with a wave of his hand and said, "Okay, don't talk here, go down." ”

Xian Li reluctantly said yes, turned out of the door, and suddenly rolled his eyes when he arrived at the door, turned around and smiled at Xian Yuanshan: "Father, we can't say it, someone may say it." ”

"Who?" Xian Yuanshan asked.

"Matchmaker!" Xian Li's face was proud, and then said: "That Gu Hao takes care of Qin's mother and son the most, and the matchmaker is also close to the girl like a mother and daughter. ”

……

In front of the stone steps at the bottom of the mountain in Chestnut Village.

Hearing Mo Qijia say that he would go back in a few years, the blue-robed man leaned back and laughed, but the young Taoist couldn't laugh, and tiptoed back. On the other hand, Qin Xian had already walked behind the blue-robed man at this time, and touched the big bluestone from nowhere, and a stone smashed on the blue-robed man's head, and the laughter stopped abruptly, Mo Qijia hurriedly crossed the old monk and picked up the blue-robed man, Qin Xian dragged the young Taoist back and forth, and Mo Qijia floated to and from afar: "Master, you go first, I will definitely go to find you." ”

Seeing that a few people were about to run away, the stone step guard couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Master, this kid is clearly deceiving you of your money, you won't really believe it." ”

The old monk looked at the few people who were gradually moving away, squinted and smiled: "Believe!" He'll come. ”

I'm not afraid of King Kong's angry eyes, I'm only afraid of squinting Bodhisattva.

……

The sun is setting in the west, and most of the households in Huali Village have picked the oranges, and there is not much left, only three or five fruits with ugly fruit shapes or insects that have not been stopped on a few trees, except for the fruit forest of Qin Xian's family, half of them have not been picked now. Only Qin's mother naturally couldn't finish it for a while, and she was reluctant to spend money to hire someone, so she had moved back to a cart with an ox cart today, and now this is the second car, the sunlight hits her face, and her face will have red spots, so Qin's mother wrapped her head with a coarse cloth, wrapped it around her neck, covered her entire face, and only showed one eye, and the vision on both sides was blocked. Hearing only an oooh, Qin's mother thought that she didn't see someone pressed on her side, so she hurriedly took off the shoulder scalp rope, took off the coarse cloth headscarf, and turned to the side of the wooden cart to check, only to see that there was no one. At this time, another oooh came, and Qin's mother realized that there was a person standing along the roadside canal.

Xianyuan Mountain walked to the car, and there were three sighs in succession.

Qin's mother was a little puzzled, but she still said with a pleasant face: "What happened to the village chief, but my cart crushed your things." As he spoke, he leaned over and looked under the car.

Xianyuan Mountain stepped forward and helped Qin's mother and said: "No, I'm amazed at how you are a woman, but you pull such a cart of orange fruits, aren't you tired, what about your Qin Xian?" ”

Mother Qin withdrew her arm that was grabbed and said with a smile: "Xu went up the mountain to collect medicine for me." ”

Xianyuan Mountain is noncommittal, and the heart is that your rabbit cub still goes up the mountain to collect medicine for you, I'm afraid it's not looking for poison, but he still pretends to say: "It's really filial piety, it's a good offspring, then you also wait for him to come back or call a helper. ”

Qin's mother may not be smart, but she is not a stupid person, and he knows that his son has a reputation in the village, not to mention the moth-eaten tumor, he is also a street rat, how can there be filial piety, Qin's mother has a straight temperament, although she can't see the attitude, but the village chief has the grace of the house, and it is not easy to say anything: "You have praised it falsely, what is there to find me?" ”

Xianyuanshan looked embarrassed, and said: "Matchmaker, you also know that we can't compare to Guzi Village and Chestnut Village in selling flowers, even other villages can't compare, every year the orange and orange blossoms are purchased by the Da Yan Dynasty, and they are used to raise pet beasts and decorate the courtyard. He shook his head and sighed.

Mother Qin was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "But the nobles don't want orange fruits?" ”

Xianyuan Mountain said: "Not yet. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and knelt down for Qin's mother, who hurriedly supported her and said, "What is the village chief doing?" ”

There were tears flowing out of Xianyuan Mountain, and he said in a panic: "Matchmaker, your mother and son are led by me to settle down, although they are outsiders, but now they are also a part of selling flowers, and they can't see the villagers indifferent to the fire and water." ”

Qin's mother said: "You and the flower seller are kind to me, the poor woman dare not forget, just say what you have, you get up first." ”

Xian Yuanshan stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, and said, "His Royal Highness Da Yan has taken a fancy to the adopted daughter of the ancient family and wants to accept it as a ...... Accepted as a concubine, but Gu Hao's temperament is impossible to deal with the imperial court, so no one dares to say Xiang, you have a deep friendship with Gu Hao, Qi Nu'an, do you think it's good for you to promote this matter? ”

Qin Mu was stunned.

Xian Yuanshan continued: "If His Royal Highness is unhappy, and he sells flowers to buy, the village will be over, and this is also a good thing. ”

Qin's mother came back to her senses after a while, helped up Xianyuan Mountain, and said dejectedly: "It's a blessing or a curse, once you have peace of mind, if she is willing, I am happy to promote it, if she is unwilling, the poor woman will go to His Royal Highness to confess for An An." ”

"Okay, okay."

Xian Yuanshan said twice, looked at Qin's mother, who had put on the coarse cloth headscarf and hung up the rope, and said, "Why don't I help you find someone to pick oranges?" ”

Qin Mu pulled up the driveway, no longer needed.

When Qin's mother walked away, Xian Yuanshan took out the handkerchief in his arms, wiped his face, and naturally muttered to himself: "Accuse? ”

"Ah", "Ah",

Suddenly, Xian Yuanshan howled twice for no reason, and said to himself in a strange manner: "I am a housekeeper." ”

It was actually learning from himself when he knelt down for Qin's mother just now.

Qin's mother pulled the cart back home, and she had no intention of unloading the oranges on the cart, so she sat in the yard until the sun did not pass the eaves, then she got up and went into the house and took out a cloth bag and went out.

……

The young Taoist now feels that this trip to Zuzhou is worthwhile, although he has not found the "fragrant rice" so far, but it is different from the previous feeling of walking, these two ruffians do not follow the rules, a class of ordinary people not only add their fists and feet, but also hit the idea to Da Yan, Xihe, and also tied up the children of the Song family, although he himself has not seen the people of the Song family, but in the world today can throw the money out casually, there is only the Wenshan Song family compound, which is almost offended in one day Half of the world.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but say: "Stretch out your hand to laugh at the monk, and also hit Wenshan Wanguanhui."
