Heeshundo

Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Fu sat under Mrs. Liu in turn, and Lishu also sat with the sisters, she was in the best mood, because her mother was coming back, and the same Lirou was vaguely looking forward to it.

The only thing that is the most unhappy is Mrs. Xu, she and Liu Chengzong have still not come out in the past few years, which means that they still have to have a son, and they are probably not willing to pass the step-step-step, only the step-concubine.

Aunt Su's two sons, Shujing and Shuyi, were not too much of a fancy to Mrs. Xu, so Lishu sat opposite, observed Mrs. Xu's expression, and knew what she was thinking. But Lishu thinks that ordinary people account for the majority in this world, and there are very few wonderful people, and Mrs. Xu wants to succeed an amazing person, not to mention that others do not succeed, even the second room itself may not have such a person.

Tassel stood behind Fu Shi and served, she actually thought of many ways, originally planned to let Lizhen slander Aunt Su's two sons in front of Mrs. Xu, but then she thought about doing so and put herself in it. As a maid, she just framed Master Su with her beauty, at most, she let him suffer some verbal lessons, unless......

Now she is really weak, but she doesn't want to involve Fu, after all, Fu is so good to her.

The status of her and Aunt Su is still very different, she is just a maid by Fu's side, Aunt Su has two sons and a daughter, she used to be an embroidery girl in the house, and there are acquaintances everywhere, so she is afraid that she will not die but be injured by the tiger.

"Old lady, the first old man and the lady are back." The little maid outside said through the curtain.

Everyone's attention was on the door, and they saw a pair of men and women coming in one after the other, and Lishu clearly saw that Fu Shi immediately pinned a strand of hair behind his ear again.

After three years, the years have not left traces on Xiao Fu's body, of course, she was originally very young, and this year she is only thirteen or fourteen years old. When walking, he has the posture of supporting the wind and weak willows, his skin is still as white as snow, and his figure is slim.

After Liu Chengxu asked for peace, he went out first, and Xiao Fu stood up with a smile, and everyone saluted again. Xiao Fu finally saw the daughter he thought of, but when he saw Lishu's hair like ink satin, her eyes were like paint, her demeanor was graceful and self-satisfied, and her eyes were full of brilliance when she looked at people, she looked like a fairy, like a goddess, and she was even more beautiful than she imagined.

Although she was very restrained, she still hugged her daughter: "Shu'er." ”

Lishu's tears still fell: "Mother, I miss you so much." ”

Mother and daughter have been dependent on each other for many years, and after leaving for three years, Xiao Fu was always afraid that her daughter would not remember herself, but when she saw her daughter crying, she was very relieved and wiped her tears: "Good boy, seeing that you are so good, it must be taught by your grandmother." ”

Xiao Fu looked at Mrs. Liu gratefully: "If it weren't for the old lady, how could our Lishu teach so well, thank you so much all these years." ”

Mrs. Liu said unhappily: "Why are you so polite, isn't this all as it should be?" ”

Xiao Fu said yes again and again, and asked people to bring Shurui Shulin over, Shurui is four years old this year, and he came out of a mold with his father, and he looked like it, and Shulin's little milk baby, who was only more than a year old, came over with a figure-eight step, and threw himself into Mrs. Liu's arms, and Mrs. Liu's eyes couldn't open with a smile.

Lishu didn't have a younger brother in her previous life, she and her other siblings were not the same mother, the relationship was estranged, and it wasn't even very good, so they guarded against each other.

So when she saw Shurui and Shulin, she was still a little homesick.

Seeing that her daughter was restrained and didn't care about greetings, Xiao Fu beckoned her over, hugged her and said, "Mother made you a whole set of little butterfly clothes, and she also has butterfly wings, I'll try it later." ”

"Butterflies?" The clothes worn by Lishu are also embroidered with butterflies, but they have no wings, and girls are naturally not resistant to these.

Xiao Fu kissed his daughter: "That's nature." ”

Although Lishu and Xiao Fu have a good relationship, she is so old, her mother still kisses herself, when she is a baby, Lishu is a little ashamed: "Mother is not allowed to be a baby anymore." ”

Xiao Fu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "My girl also knows that she is shy." ”

On such an occasion, the aunts didn't even have the identity to come here, and Lirou looked at Lishu's mother and daughter a little lonely, but she didn't show it.

Because Lirou knows that according to common sense, Xiao Fu is a mother-in-law, and she should treat everyone equally, but obviously, she only has her own children in her heart. This is not as good as Fu's, Fu's share of them is the same, they treat them as their own on weekdays, and the little Fu is a concubine in the end, so it is not as atmospheric as Fu's.

Mrs. Liu is old, and she can't really hug Shulin, but after a while, let the nurses hug her.

But she is really like drinking fine wine, seeing that Shurui and Shulin are both very well raised, and she is kind to Xiao Fu. It doesn't matter if Aunt Ding is favored or not, as a wife and concubine, the most important thing is to give birth to children and then raise the family. This kind of thing is not bad for housekeeping, and there are many people in the family.

After saying goodbye, everyone dispersed first, and then came to Mrs. Tai's place for dinner in the evening. Here, of course, the people in the first room visited Liu Chengxu in private, and at this time, the wives and concubines of the first room gathered together.

Liu Chengxu first said gently to Fu Shi: "The affairs at home have worked hard for you." ”

After getting this sentence, Fu Shi was sweeter than anything else, and immediately said: "Where is the master, I haven't done anything, I really can't do a hard job." ”

Xiao Fu smiled and said to the children in the first room: "I brought a kite from Shandong this time with one of you, it is made by an old shop, and the skills are very exquisite." ”

Lishu said in her heart that she had heard that the kites in Weifang, Shandong Province were very famous, and her mother really had a heart, and she saw that Xiao Fu gave Fu Dong'e Ejiao and Aunt Su a ruler. As for the Shujing Shuyi brothers, it was the famous Qingzhou red silk stone inkstone in Shandong, and the girls got two pieces of cloth each, and everyone was very happy.

Lirou looked at the kite in her hand, it was indeed very beautiful, not to mention the exquisite workmanship, it was still a famous soft-winged kite, and I heard that the wings could still move when put on. But these things have no effect, just like flowers to wear and play, and when the color fades, there is nothing, but there is no gold and silver jewelry of value.

It may be cheesy to think like this, but it's true.

After the gift was divided, Liu Chengxu first compared the two older sons, Aunt Su was very worried, especially Shujing was a little clever when he was a child, and Fu Shi only asked him to talk over on weekdays, he himself thought that he was the son of the Liu family, and saw that the eldest uncle took care of him and had a family, so he asked a few words in Liu Chengxu's usual time, and the answer stammered.

Liu Chengxu was very angry: "You have also been a famous teacher invited to you since you were a child, and you were sent to study in the academy, you are also a teenager, and your father is already a student at your age, and you are so ungrown." Your knowledge, don't say that you are a talent in the show, you are far from even the county exam. ”

Compared with Shujing, Shuyi is much better, Liu Chengxu Ye is slightly satisfied, but as if he has seen through his son, he said: "You don't like Shiwen, but it is difficult to grow, you must know that today's Zizhong article." ”

Lishu thinks that the third brother Shuyi should be more fond of poetry, which is nothing, but the bad thing is that the world is discussed by articles now, and poetry does not account for a large proportion in the imperial examination.

If the test is quite strict compared to her sons, and the test is much more lenient than her daughters, Lishu found that Lijia is really hidden, she often lets herself and other sisters not study, and wants to focus on needle women, but she reads a lot of books in private, and allusions come easily.

Liwan was much worse, and even asked Liu Chengxu: "Do you know Li Bai's Taifu?" ”

Liwan was stumbling, Lishu couldn't help but think that Liwan had been going to school for so long, Liu Chengxu couldn't help but be displeased, and continued to ask Lishu, "What are you reading now?" ”

"My daughter just finished reading the Zhaoming Anthology." Lishu smiled.

Liu Chengxu was a little surprised: "Oh, I've already read "Zhaoming Anthology", do you know "Returning to the Field"? ”

"Back to my father's words, this is written by Zhang Heng of the Han Dynasty, the sentences are plain and beautiful, the language is natural and fresh, and the polish is beautiful, which is a rare good work. My daughter likes it the most, so the mid-spring moon is clear, and the air is clear; The original is lush and lush, and the grass is prosperous. Wang Ju drummed his wings, and Cang Geng wailed; Cross the neck and cheeks, close the guan. Yu Yan is at ease, chatting for entertainment. These words. Lishu said.

Liu Chengxu looked at his daughter and was a little puzzled: "Shouldn't you like 'Playing the Five Strings' Wonderful Fingers, Yong Zhou, Confucius's Books." Wave Han ink to strive for algae, Chen Sanhuang's rail model. Indulge in things, and know what honor and disgrace are. 'Is it?' ”

Lishu knew that her father was testing herself, so she said: "This "Returning to the Field" is the same as Tao Yuanming's chrysanthemum picking under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan. Although a scholar should be indifferent to fame and fortune, since he reads, he needs to do his job, so that he can live up to the Son of Heaven. ”

They all went to seclusion, who will take care of the people in the world? If the politics is not clear, we should put things in order, instead of shrinking up, blindfolding our ears, thinking that if we can't hear it, we will have it, and can we really take it for granted to live our own little life?

Liu Chengxu admired it in his heart, but it didn't show it at all on the surface. Xiao Fu himself has not read the Zhaoming anthology, but after listening to his daughter's example of Tao Yuanming, he knows that his daughter's temperament is not the kind of person who is willing to live in seclusion.

He continued to ask Lirou, Lirou was the youngest, Liu Chengxu first asked her where she was reading, Lirou missed a lot of classes, but said: "I don't read much on weekdays, and I barely finished reading the four books, and I know a little about the Analects." ”

Liu Chengxu saw that Lirou was very nervous, and knew that she was afraid that she would not be able to study well, but she knew just by looking at her face that Lishu was clearly full of energy. Therefore, he just smiled and asked: "Since the four girls have read the Analects, Zi said: 'The gentleman is noble, and he is benevolent. But if someone says that he is capable, he should not have the kindness of a woman, and if he does something for the emperor, he must dispose of a courtier. This courtier made an unforgivable mistake, but he is also a person who has made great contributions, and the emperor wants to protect him, what do you think? ”

Lishu glanced at Lirou, and said in her heart that what she meant was that the truth was that a true gentleman could praise his benevolence and righteousness, but those who really achieved great things, everyone said that they should not be benevolent to women.

In fact, it is very simple to solve the problem, a true gentleman should have lofty ambitions, and always have the ideals of the beginning in his heart, although there are compromises in the process, but they cannot be dragged into the water. The benevolence of women generally does not refer entirely to the benevolence of women, but also refers to the indecision of people in dealing with things, giving small favors and small favors, and not knowing the general situation. In fact, charity does not mean indecision.

Who knows that Li Rou said: "My daughter thinks that since this minister has done many good things, it means that he has also been benevolent, but he has done something wrong, so he should use the law to treat him." The daughter wants to choose no matter how she chooses, it is a dilemma, but since the emperor wants to protect him, this is not the decision of the minister, because the minister also has to listen to the emperor. ”

Liu Chengxu is not very satisfied, he has always supported the Qing Dynasty, and used Taoism to restrain the emperor, where the emperor said anything, just for his official position?

But he couldn't show it, so he asked Lishu, "What do you see?" Are you a supporter of learning and excellence? ”

Lishu smiled: "Since there is a law, if I am the minister who handles this matter, I will definitely adhere to the law." If this person is unforgivable, then he is the pest of the country, and he must set an example. If you break the law with your power in everything, what is the difference between being so easy to obey and a sycophant? My daughter thinks that even if I am dismissed because of this matter, the court will still use me if it needs such a strong order in the future. Otherwise, as long as he is in his position, he will definitely seek his own government. ”

When she was the queen mother in her previous life, she knew one thing, a husband can't be without power for a day.

A person without power is like a puppet, and it is better not to be an official.

Liu Chengxu praised Lishu very much, almost showing it on his face: "Among my children, Lishu is the most like me, dare to think and speak." ”

Xiao Fu listened to it on the side, extremely happy, and the rest of the people listened to it in a fog, but Lirou felt in a dilemma, does Daddy mean to confront the emperor? Isn't that implicating the family?

It's no wonder that my father has been spinning around in six or seven grades, but he doesn't know how to be an official, so as a courtier, don't you just listen to the emperor?

Seeing Liu Chengxu praising her, Lishu hurriedly said: "Daddy, you dare to think and speak out for the country and the people, and your daughter is offending people like this." ”

Liu Chengxu saw his daughter stomping her feet and laughed: "Then what should you do?" ”

"The daughter was the only one who walked in a straight way, and had nothing to fear. Those who know me say I'm worried, and those who don't know me say what I want! Lishu stepped forward.

Liu Chengxu was in awe: "That's true." ”

At this time, Xiao Fu came out to play a round: "Xianggong, the children are trembling as you asked, are you tired?" Let the kids relax. In the future, when you come back to be an official, it's time to speak. ”

Liu Chengxu smiled: "Okay, okay, you all go down first." ”

The two brothers slipped the fastest, Aunt Su pinched the handkerchief, turned around and left, Lirou had already stepped forward to help Aunt Ding, the mother and daughter had not seen each other for a long time, and there were many words that could not be said.

As for Fu's complicated eyes, because she felt that Liu Chengxu didn't seem to have any love for her at all, she didn't look at her just now, and Xiao Fu was like a hostess.

And the tassel is the audience of Miss Gongzi was tested by a master, it is indeed the third girl is the most outstanding, she is not afraid of people's words, others said that she is not as filial as the fourth girl and the fifth girl, only care about her own study, she doesn't pay attention to it at all, and still does her own thing. This person is young, determined, and extremely good at understanding people's hearts, and is a character.

After everyone left, Xiao Fu beckoned to Lishu: "Silly boy, don't come over quickly, just say it's dry." ”

Lishu hurriedly sat next to her mother, Liu Chengxu saw that Lishu's mother and daughter were so close, and said again: "Your mother spoils you so much, but you are becoming more and more motivated, it's really rare?" However, she only spoils you, and is strict with your brother. ”

"Mother, what do you say?" Lishu didn't understand either.

Where did Xiao Fu know that Liu Chengxu mentioned this topic, she was stunned for a long time before saying: "Because I don't want Lishu to be like me, my younger brothers I treat them strictly, and I am also good to them, I hope they can become talents." And Lishu, I spoil her, and I also hope that she can live happily. ”

With her mother by her side, Lishu was very relieved, she saw that Xiao Fu's face looked ruddy, but she was relieved, and for a while, she saw her two younger brothers again. Shurui was a little older, and he was a little embarrassed to see his sister, but Shulin was held in his sister's arms, giggling, and Lishu thought that this was probably blood and family.

They shouted that he was not the third sister, but the elder sister.

Xiao Fu urged Lishu to change her clothes, and a few people reluctantly separated, but they didn't know that Aunt Ding's mother and daughter were also talking.

Aunt Ding saw that Lirou was not as thin and sick as before, and she had grown a lot and looked good, she couldn't help but say: "Lirou, Aunt has always been thinking about you, but because of her identity, she can't write to you often." ”

"Auntie, I know, you told me to hide it, and I have always done it." Lirou laughed.

Aunt Ding nodded: "Yes." She looked at the kite that Lirou had just let people hang up, and rebuked: "What can you do with such a kite, which can neither be eaten nor drunk?" Xiao Fu's office is very for the common people, filling out all the rice and grain in our house, just to achieve her good reputation. ”

Lirou looked at Aunt Ding, she had always known her aunt's ability to be a housekeeper, her aunt was the daughter of an official family, she learned to manage her family at home, and her current uncle also served as a county magistrate, no one was as good as Xiao Fu's concubine, and no one taught her about housekeeping, so she just showed her kindness.

"Auntie, how does the third wife take care of the family business on weekdays?" Lirou asked.

Aunt Ding said: "Her ability is limited, she let the master be a few calligraphy and paintings, and the master is willing to do so, I don't know anything else." I'm in the backyard, and I don't usually go out. ”

She is not very favored, it seems that the master doesn't like her when he shares a room with her, in fact, Aunt Ding thinks that if she goes on like this, the master will definitely lose his career and the family business will be ruined.

It's a pity that the old man won't listen to her.

Lishu wore a new dress with butterflies for the first time, and walked like a butterfly fairy, and Huasheng with a complete set of small butterflies brought back by her mother on her head.

"Mother, look good." Lishu also made a special turn.

Xiao Fu smiled: "Your hair hasn't been combed yet, and you're stinky." ”

Lishu grinned, only feeling happy, she also told her mother about playing the guqin to attract birds: "At first, I was going to feed with bird food, so that I could find the pattern, and then I practiced diligently, and every time I knew and acted together, I could really attract the birds over, and then my grandfather invited me to take the guqin hand in person." ”

Xiao Fu didn't expect that her daughter had already entered the door of the guqin holy hand, she said happily: "You are so good, you can't just rely on your cleverness to go through a lifetime, your grandmother must also see that you are smart and diligent." ”

Lishu took it for granted: "Mother, since I went to study, I must study well." As for the rest, I don't want to. ”

"Well, that's right, I see that a girl can't even understand anything about poetry, it's just a mess, what's the point of this. I forgot to tell you, I painted a few paintings and sold them, mostly landscape paintings, I thought that the paintings were not good, but I could still make a living, and your father was afraid that I would paint too hard, so let me not work too hard. Xiao Fu felt that there was no harm in learning more things from the girl's family, at least she could relieve her mood.

Lishu was very happy for her mother, and she asked Xiao Fu again: "What does it mean for Daddy to sigh before leaving?" ”

Xiao Fu said: "What your father means is that if you are a man, why don't you worry about the prosperity of your family." ”

"That's not necessarily, officialdom is not so easy to mix, my daughter looks good in the girl's house, it's not that I'm really smart, but many women think it's good to recognize a few words, and it's more important for them to find a good person, so they will definitely be distracted. If the daughter is really compared with those who participate in the imperial examination, she may not be comparable. "Lishu is still very self-aware.

I haven't seen her for a few years, Xiao Fu feels that her daughter has grown up a lot, she knows that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky, which is much better than many people who think very highly of themselves.

When the mother and daughter met alone, they naturally talked a lot affectionately, and went to the old lady to eat.

Fu Shi saw that Xiao Fu said that he would let Lishu go to sleep with her today, and his heart was relieved, so that Liu Chengxu would always go to his place. They are a serious husband and wife, but because Rao's mother and others did something wrong halfway, Liu Chengxu blamed her.

After so many years, this matter has long passed, and it has nothing to do with her.

She walked back to the room with the tassel, looked at the moonlight in the sky, and felt the tassel: "In a few years, I will release your membership and choose a family for you, but don't be like me again, my husband has to share it with another person." ”

The tassel choked in his throat.

She knew how bitter Fu was, but she had already gotten the news that Aunt Su's brother rushed back overnight because Liu Chengxu came over, and today was her best chance to let that guy show her stuff.

The first master is indeed an upright official, listening to him today, he knows that he will definitely not be partial to his own affairs, she didn't know that the first master was a person before, so she didn't dare to act rashly, but now it's different.

This night, Liu Chengxu went to the study to sleep, Fu Shi felt that he was deceiving himself, and fell asleep sadly, while the tassel tiptoed out. She had already bought off her mother-in-law, and she had Fu's waist card on her body, and soon went out quietly under the starry night, because she knew that person was a pervert.

……

This night, because she was by her mother's side, Lishu slept very hard, but Xiao Fu called Danhong over and said, "What's the matter, did she go?" ”

"Go, she is also a ruthless person, and she really introduced Su Daquan into our inner house."

"Hmph, this is the eldest sister's housekeeper, she is often indulged in her own affairs, so she doesn't care about anything. Whether the subordinates are loyal or treacherous, she dares to use it, Yulan's little hooves can betray her, and she tells me here, and I don't know how she did it. Magnolia has been serving by her side for a long time, and she has been treating Magnolia in general for so many years, but she has attached great importance to this tassel. Xiao Fu was also speechless.

Sure enough, after a while, I heard that the tassel ran over to the study where Liu Chengxu was sleeping, saying that Su Daquan was going to rape him, Liu Chengxu didn't expect that the foreign man actually entered the garden, and dared to tease the big girl next to the Fu family, and let people deliver it to Shuntianfu without saying a word.

In Daqi□□ a married woman dies; and if there is no husband, the rod is one hundred and seventeen.

Su Daquan was punished one hundred and seventeen, and others saw that it was handed over by the Liu family, and they were even more severely beaten, and Su Daquan, who fought one hundred and seventy battles, had been beaten to the flesh and blood, and was almost crippled.

Aunt Su knows her younger brother, and he is indeed a greedy and lustful person, but he will not enter the garden, and how can he, a foreign man, enter the garden casually, unless someone does it?

……

Lishu heard that Aunt Su's brother was sent to Shuntian Mansion to be disabled a few days ago, she turned over, and her mother thought she was asleep, and she was instructing Danqing: "You quietly find someone to tell Aunt Su, just say that Tassel is the sister of the former grape, and she is here to take revenge." ”

"Yes." Danqing said with a smile.

Danhong also said on the side: "Master's trick is really high. But it also relieves hatred, that Su Daquan raped the grapes, Aunt Su is afraid that she will make a fuss and let the grapes die inexplicably, and it is good to scare her. ”

Xiao Fu smiled: "I'm already kind enough, the tassel took revenge, let Aunt Su know that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, what's wrong?" ”

Lishu, who closed her eyes, thought, now that it's okay, Aunt Su will probably cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise her brother's matter will be implicated in her, and she will kill the tassel, so that her mother will successfully get the handle.

Sure enough, after the man returned home, the dispute in the back house began. ：，，
