The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Shang Xi and Yu Hua were about to refuse when they heard Han Nianxia say, "What time does the singing start? Where do we meet?"

Yuhua widened her eyes and said, "Han Nianxia, ​​you really want to go listen to the music."

"I've been feeling bored lately. I think the Red Horned Lady's suggestion is a good one. Besides, it's been a while since we last listened to music. Let's go together."

Shang Xi didn't want to reject Shi Hongjiao's kindness, nor did she want to disturb Han Nianxia's interest, so she said to Shi Hongjiao, "You can go, but you have to bring your mother-in-law with you."

"Okay, that's what I was thinking. It would be better to invite a few more people. It will be more lively with more people. Can the old lady of the Wan family come along?"

Shang Xi shook her head and said, "No, I'm staying at home to chant sutras recently. I won't be going out for a while."

In fact, Madam Wan had an inch-long scar on her temple, which has not healed yet. She probably won’t go out in the near future.

The next morning.

The three members of Shang Xi's family were all dressed neatly, especially Cheng Youning, who was dressed like a little peacock, holding a small folding fan in his hand. In just a short while, he had walked back and forth in front of Shang Xi no less than five times.

Shang Xi moved her nose and sniffed, "Cheng Youning, what did you apply? Why does it smell so good?"

Cheng Youning smiled and said, "Mom, does the baby smell good?"

"It smells good, even better than the rouge and powder that mother puts on. What did you use?" Shang Xi was a little curious. There was no perfume in that era. How did Cheng Youning make herself smell so good?

"Mom, Black Banana used spices to fumigate my clothes twice."

"Thanks to your grandfather for bringing Bajiao back home, now only Bajiao can serve you. But where are you going dressed like this?"

Cheng Youning pointed his chin at Cheng Feng, who was lying on the bed, and said, "Daddy and I will be out in a while."

"Cheng Feng, where are you taking your son?"

"Let's go to Shi Hongshang's teahouse for tea." At this time, Cheng Feng stood up and asked Cheng Youning: "Son, can we go now?"

Cheng Youning pulled out a pearl necklace from his mother's jewelry box, wrapped it around his neck twice, and grabbed a handful of rings to put on his hands, "Dad, we can go now!"

Shang Xi was puzzled: "Son, what are you wearing? The ring doesn't look big enough for you!"

As Cheng Youning followed Cheng Feng out, he turned back and said to Shang Xi, "Mom, it's better if the ring is bigger. A bigger one is better than a smaller one."

Shang Xi felt that Cheng Youning was such a weird kid! But she didn't say anything. After all, this kid was acting out a scene every day, and adults couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

Just when Shang Xi was about to go out, a servant from the house came to report that He Ye was about to come out and beat the two servants guarding the gate.

Shang Xi hurried over to take a look upon hearing this. Han Nianxia also came to join in the fun, "Cousin, it's only been a few days and she's gone crazy three times already."

Shang Xi couldn't figure it out either. She shook her head in confusion, "I don't know. Your cousin brought her back from the southern Yan Country. It is said that she didn't have any seizures during the journey. How come she still has seizures frequently in this comfortable environment? I don't understand."

Han Nianxia was anxious to go out, so she suggested, "Cousin, I think we should let the servants tie her up!"

"It's not right. If she's tied up, it will only exacerbate her stress. Besides, your cousin will be heartbroken when he comes back to see her. After all, she's your niece that he's watched grow up. When He Ye was irritating in the past, your cousin gritted his teeth in hatred but didn't do anything to her. Now that she's sick, your cousin will definitely not want to see her tied up."

Han Nianxia nodded: "That's right, my aunt is disfigured, and this He Ye is still living here and going crazy. I really have no place to complain, cousin, what should I do now!"

Shang Xi had no idea what to do when he saw He Ye acting crazy in the yard, so he could only send two more people to keep an eye on him.

It took quite a bit of time to arrange all these things. When they went to the theater, Mrs. Sha, her daughter-in-law, and her little daughter had been waiting for them in front of the theater for a while, accompanied by Wan Baiqian.

Wan Baiqian looked at Shang Xi, Han Nianxia and Yuhua who were late, and couldn't help asking, "Did something happen at home that delayed you?"

Shang Xi quickly explained: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I kept you waiting for so long. Cheng Feng's niece He Ye was not feeling well this morning, so I went to see her."

Wan Baiqian frowned when he heard this: "Nothing serious, right?"

"It's okay, I gave him some medicine and he went to sleep!"

"Is my mother okay?"

"Don't worry, sister. Both parents are fine. Let's go in. Is the show already started?"

Shi Hongjiao looked at his pocket watch and said, "It's just the beginning, this is the perfect time to go in."

Shang Xi asked: "Is there any seat available at this time?"

Shi Hongjiao chuckled: "With me here, how can we not have a place to sit? I've booked the table at the front!"

Shang Xi looked at Madam Sha and said with a smile: "Madam Sha, you are so lucky. Your daughter-in-law is so considerate."

Zhao Shuyun heard this and said, "Yes, this girl is more capable of worrying and arranging things than I am. With her coming home, I have saved myself a lot of worries at home and outside."

The play had already started on the stage. There were more than ten ladies, young ladies, and maids in total. They all crouched down and followed Shi Hongjiao to the table they had reserved in advance, and then sat down one by one.

It was indeed a good seat with a very good view. Those who could listen to opera had already entered the state. Only Shang Xi and Yuhua were whispering to each other because they could not understand. However, Yuhua was a little better than Shang Xi. Even if she did not come to such a formal theater to listen to opera, as long as she knew the name of the opera, she would roughly know what story it was telling, because these were the things circulated in the market.

Shang Xi was a little distressed. She said to Yuhua, "I don't understand this!"

"You'll understand after listening. You've been a fool since childhood!" Yuhua reached out and grabbed a handful of melon seeds for Shang Xi and said, "If you really don't understand, just eat some melon seeds and drink some tea."

Shang Xi nodded. She was just joining in the fun. From time to time, there was thunderous applause from below, and Shang Xi would follow the crowd and applaud. At this time, Shi Hongjiao stretched his head forward and said, "Mrs. Cheng, you don't understand!"

"Did you figure it out?"

Shi Hongjiao nodded: "You look so confused."

"It's not that I don't understand it at all. I still understand half of it." Shang Xi was lying. The tone of the opera was unpredictable and there were many people performing on the stage. She had no idea what their lines were. Unless she knew the content of the whole story and then listened to it, maybe she could still understand it. Otherwise, it would be like a duck hearing thunder.
