6 Grievances
He used to be a volume king, but now he can't.
Xie Mansion was busy early in the morning, and today was the day when the Xie family's grandmother returned. Xie Yuan and Mrs. Xie are fully prepared, Xie Weixuan has been proud of the spring breeze these days, and his whole face is red.
"What is Grandmother here for?"
"Come and see, I guess I'll stay for a few days." Mrs. Xie whispered.
Xie Weixuan was very unhappy, there were elders in the family, and it was his grandmother who had the most rules, he was going to her yard early in the morning to ask for peace, the key was that this grandmother was very strict, and she had to beat people's palms from time to time.
Xie Qiaoyu stood in one place, and his heart was also embarrassed, he had been beaten several times before, and now he also had a shadow on Grandmother Xie.
The carriage gurgled to the gate of Xie's mansion, Xie Zhiyou went back to Dongtian Academy to study, Mrs. Xie was a thin old lady, she got out of the carriage wearing a string of Buddhist beads on her wrist, the whole person was like a Bodhisattva with low eyebrows, and a charming brother came out of the carriage behind her.
Xie Qiaoyu's face suddenly changed slightly, it was his cousin Xie Qian, who was quite liked by Mrs. Xie, he was already sixteen years old, it should be the age to talk about marriage, and it was difficult to take Xie Qian with him at this time It was not that kind of idea.
"Mother, you're here."
"If I didn't want to go to the Buddhist temple to teach the Buddha, I wouldn't have come to the house, so as not to annoy people."
"Grandmother, grandson misses you." Xie Weixuan shouted affectionately.
"Xie Zhi why is he not here, I heard that he took the sixth place on the list and is much better than his old man." Old Madam Xie smiled.
Old Madam Xie likes Xie Zhi the most, and others like Xie Weixuan and Xie Qiaoyu are irrelevant, anyway, they want to get married, and they are not people from the Xie family for a long time after all.
"Xie Zhi went to the academy." Xie Yuan was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't be majestic in front of his mother, but he had to be taught a lesson, and he had to compare it with his son.
"I'm tired from the road, Xie Qian helped me go to rest first."
Xie Qian helped Mrs. Xie to go in together, and Xie Weixuan snorted softly when he passed by Xie Qian.
Xie Qiaoyu doesn't want to join in this fun, grandmother is a strong person, and she has a bad relationship with Mrs. Xie's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but she doesn't look down on the concubine, and she likes to seize power.
"Look, Xie Weixuan and Xie Qianzhi may have a fight." Xie Qiaoyu spoke to Yao He in a low voice, and on the surface, he also looked like a snow-skinned flower, a gentle and gentle interpretation flower, with a warm smile between his eyebrows.
"Young master, it's good to protect yourself." Yao He lowered his eyebrows and helped Xie Qiaoyu, and the two of them smiled tacitly.
Xie Qiaoyu went back to the yard and slept for a while, and the whole thing woke up, he couldn't go out today to accompany Mrs. Xie to dinner, so he went to pick some petals to make rouge.
He planted flowers himself, and he arranged a circle by the window and then in the yard, and it was very beautiful.
"Young master, this is a creeper that I bought at the flower market." Yao He instructed the people in the yard to take several pots, Xie Qiaoyu had long wanted to raise creepers, and when the creepers surrounded the whole house, he could see green leaves and flowers when he opened the window.
"Then dare to be kind, wait a while and buy a few strings of wind chimes to hang." Xie Qiaoyu went to clean his hands, and his slender fingers were white and tender.
Xie Qiaoyu has never wronged himself in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation, he likes to toss his yard the most, and every time the yard changes greatly, he has a sense of satisfaction.
"Young master, I also inquired about what you asked me to inquire about." Yao He whispered: "I wrote down the whereabouts of Wan Gongzi on this paper. ”
Xie Qiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up.
He would go to the Drunken Immortal Tower from time to time for half a month, and he hadn't met Wan Mingji since that time, which made him feel depressed. His eldest brother said that Wan Mingji and Xie Jiuling had a better time, and there was nothing surprising about them academically, that is, they were cut off from some of the previous ones who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and they still liked to be alone.
can play with Xie Jiuling, he is also very powerful. The prince of Zhizhou is noble, not that ordinary people can't get into his eyes, Wan Mingji is still clumsy, he is really a modest man.
He opened the place where Yao He wrote. Dongtian Academy (Academy), Qingshui Lane (home), Suburb (play), Buddhist Temple (meditation).
Xie Qiaoyu was shocked when he saw that Yao He had also marked the specific incident: "Yao He, you are really my right-hand man." ”
Yao He couldn't help but puff up his chest: "It's all what I should do, young master." ”
"With this, I'm still worried that I can't find Wan Mingji." Xie Qiaoyu held his face and began to reverie.
"Young master, Wan Gongzi will have to keep filial piety for three years."
"Shouxiao can be married first, I like the time when I can't get it, and that young man's mind is the rarest." Xie Qiaoyu: "If you want to pick a good man, you have to look at the others, how can you just look at your face, and you have to contact it for a while." ”
Yao He: "......"
At lunchtime, Xie Qiaoyu ate a plate of crispy apples in his yard before going to the front of the hall to eat.
When he arrived, Xie Weixuan's eyes were red, Xie Qian's eyes were also red, Xie Qiaoyu sat down and didn't see it, looking down at the pattern of his shoes.
Xie Weixuan glared at Xie Qiaoyu, this coward! The foreign family is bullied to the head, and he still looks at it! What's there to see!
"What's so noisy about the two little brothers, isn't it just a bowl of lotus root noodles, just tell your subordinates to make another bowl." Xie Yuan pinched his eyebrows, and yelled at Xie Weixuan: "There is no host's appearance, the person who comes is a guest, is this your cousin, do you let him not do it?" ”
"Master, don't be angry, it's all my fault, it's me who didn't discipline him well and let him do things so domineering." Mrs. Xie sniffled and covered her face with a handkerchief.
Xie Qiaoyu's eyes wandered, watching the play on the side. What his father said to this Mrs. Xie is also interesting, the master's family, let the cousin, the young and the old are orderly, it should be the cousin and the cousin, not to mention that this is still their home, you are just an outsider.
Those who are officials have a lot of hearts.
"That's it! A good meal, what is it like, eat first, you two small ones, you will go to the ancestral hall to copy the Buddhist scriptures. Old Madam Xie patted Xie Qian's hand.
It turned out that Xie Qian wanted to eat lotus root noodles, and Xie Weixuan also wanted to eat them, and the two of them collided together, and Mrs. Xie was eccentric Xie Qian, so she gave Xie Qian the lotus root noodles to eat first, which ignited Xie Weixuan's anger, and when it came to lunch, he began to attack Xie Qian.
"You too, the two brothers quarreled, you stayed out of the matter, and you are also a person with a bad heart." When Mrs. Xie saw Xie Qiaoyu lowered her eyebrows, she said to him again, and the little father raised a little family.
Xie Qiaoyu: "? ”
"Yes, grandmother, it's all my fault, it's me who didn't restrain my brother, it's me who didn't lead by example, I just bow my head and don't talk when I encounter something."
As the youngest of the three, Xie Qiaoyu said anything to restrain his brother, and it was really weird to lead by example, Xie Yuan's face was not good-looking, and there was a hint of embarrassment.
"Qiao Yu, I don't know what happened when I stay in the courtyard, this has nothing to do with him." It is rare for Xie Yuan to have a conscience to speak for Xie Qiaoyu.
"As an elder, say a few words about him, is he still wronged?" Old Madam Xie's face was not good. She doesn't like it when someone comes to challenge her authority.
Xie Qiaoyu looked worried, and his body trembled: "Don't quarrel for me." ”
He pondered the wording: "The three of us brothers are one, and I am willing to copy Buddhist scriptures in the ancestral hall to bless my grandmother with peace and a long life." It is my blessing to be able to serve the Buddha. ”
Xie Weixuan glared angrily, and Xie Qian looked sideways slightly.
"Well, this is the friendship that the three brothers should have, the Buddha is important in sincerity, you copy the Buddhist scriptures in the ancestral hall." Old Madam Xie eased her expression and glanced at Xie Qiaoyu. This concubine!
"Yes, grandmother."
Lunch ran out in silence, Xie Qiaoyu returned to the courtyard to get paper and pen, Yao He said: "It's all the business of the second young master and the thousand young masters, what does it have to do with the young master?" ”
"Okay, if I were to go next, my grandmother and my father would be a little unable to get down the stairs." Xie Qiaoyu was looking for something in the yard.
"That's right, the lord loves face the most. Young master, the pen and paper are here. ”
"Paper and pen are secondary, where did I go to the Buddhist scriptures that I used to practice writing and write?" Xie Qiaoyu found it, and he immediately put a few Buddhist scriptures he had written before into his sleeve.
Their brother likes to write according to the famous post when he practices calligraphy, but he likes to write according to the Buddhist scriptures, and the benefits will come.
The three pampered brothers went to the ancestral hall to kneel and copy Buddhist scriptures, and when the door was closed, it seemed to be in prison. Xie Weixuan's face was full of impatience, and Xie Qian knelt straight.
Xie Qiaoyu pulled his cuffs, knelt vainly and took a brush to copy one carefully, covered it with his sleeves, leaned forward and took out the copied Buddhist scriptures from his sleeves to smooth out the wrinkles.
"Xie Qian, what are you doing at our house?" Xie Weixuan asked.
"I came with my grandmother, and my cousin should not ask about the elders as a junior."
The two of them began to talk again, Xie Qiaoyu estimated that the hour was almost up, and Shi Shiran stood up and knocked on the door.
The door opened, and a grandmother said, "What's the matter with the third young master?" ”
"Mama, I'm done."
Mama glanced at it a few times, it didn't look like it was scribbled, she nodded: "The third young master can leave." ”
When Xie Qiaoyu left, the door of the ancestral hall was closed again, and the last trace of light was gone.
Xie Weixuan: "......"
Xie Qian: "......"
Xie Qiaoyu didn't waste time on this, he wanted to go out to Qingshui Lane and see his good Langjun.
He didn't know that Mama handed the Buddhist scriptures he copied to Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Xie took the time to take a look, Xie Qiaoyu had practiced the words according to the Buddhist scriptures for several years, and this word looked very dignified and steady.
"This kid has a Buddha nature." Mrs. Xie put it down with a comment.
"In the end, he is still the grandson of the old lady, and he is also an advocate of Buddhist scriptures, and the third young master copies Buddhist scriptures quickly and well." Mama Liu smiled.
Old Madam Xie didn't say anything, she just didn't refute.
*
"Brother Wan, see you in the school tomorrow." Xie Jiuling said with a smile.
Other friends also bid farewell to Wan Mingji.
Qingshui Lane is the most remote alley in Ningjiang County, three religions and nine streams live together, the alley is mottled and moss, it looks bleak and dilapidated. On the first day of Wan Mingji's stay, someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night, and a few days later, a pickpocket touched him, which made Wan Mingji a good fight.
"Why did Little Beauty come here? Let's show my brother. ”
"Don't retreat, beauty."
There was a sound on the corner of the path, and Wan Mingji's hand that was unlocking the lock paused.
Xie Qiaoyu and Yao He trembled, they didn't expect that there were such vicious people here, who would dare to do such a thing in broad daylight.
"Help! Help me! ”
"If you cut your throat, no one will come to save you!"
"Yao, Yao He, did you say Wan Mingji came back?"
"Young master, I've been following for a few days at this hour."
Xie Qiaoyu couldn't help but feel sad and indignant in his heart, Yao He hadn't met a bold fanatic for a few days, a scoundrel, he met it as soon as he came today, he was too unlucky.
"Wan Mingji !!" Xie Qiaoyu took his luck and shouted.
Yao He: "Help! ”
The scoundrel was very excited, and finally a pair of master and servant came to Qingshui Lane, although he didn't see his face, but his figure was excellent, especially the master, whose waist was not as good as Yingying's hand.
They hesitated strangely when they heard the name Wan Mingji, and the blood on them cooled.
"That person went to the Cave Heaven Academy, he shouldn't have come back yet, if he does......
A splash gritted his teeth: "Whatever, let's talk about it first!" ”
A splash stepped forward, Xie Qiaoyu trembled with fear, his long eyelashes were like a small fan, and he shouted heartbreakingly: "Wan Mingji!! ”
"You won't ...... if you cut your throat," the ploppy words were not finished.
"Here we are." Wan Mingji threw out a stone, and the one closest to Xie Qiaoyu was so weak that he almost knelt down.
Xie Qiaoyu saw that Wan Mingji was there, and immediately kicked the fox fake tiger might.
Yao He was dumbfounded.
