Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

A ray of cool wind caressed from the fields, blowing on everyone's faces with the heat of summer, and blew the whirling song of branches and leaves.

Kong Rong's words silenced everyone, Xia Luoyu didn't think about what to say at all, Zhang He was thinking about how to answer, and Xia Jiniang didn't expect Kong Rong to attack Zhang He.

"Moo—" the black cow next to Zhang He yelled, and then lowered his head to graze.

Its voice broke the quiet and awkward atmosphere. Before Zhang He could answer, Xia Ji Niang said: "She is my guest, why you came has nothing to do with you."

Xia Luoyu then smiled at Kong Rong: "Brother Kong, it's rare for you to come back, you should go home first, so that Uncle and Aunt Kong won't worry."

Kong Rong was very embarrassed by Xia Jiniang's question, and Xia Luoyu rescued him, so he said to Xia Jiniang: "I'll go home first, and I'll come to find you later!"

After Kong Rong left, Xia Jiniang looked at Xia Luoyu again, and the latter smiled: "I'm going back to the room first, my sister will talk slowly."

Although they left, the impact on Zhang He would not disappear because of this. She suddenly thought that Xia Jiniang took off the hairpin she gave her, was it because she was afraid that Kong Rong would misunderstand it?

Xia Cuishi witnessed this small disturbance, so she no longer hid and peeked, but walked back.Xia Jiniang saw her and said: "Mother, you are back, actually my cousin is here, sitting in the house!"

Xia Cui said happily: "Brother Shi is here, it must be for a marriage!"

"Yes." Xia Jiniang replied.

"Then go back quickly, Zhang Erlang also go in and sit down!"

Zhang He nodded, and followed them back to the main room of the Xia family.At this time, the eyes of the people in the main room looked at Zhang He very differently, which made Zhang He feel very strange. He just went out to feed the cows, and when he came back, why did everyone focus on him?Could it be that they knew about Kong Rong and thought they were arguing over Xia Jiniang?

What she and Xia Jiniang didn't know was that when Xia Jiniang walked out of the courtyard to chat with Zhang He, Second Aunt Xia and Third Aunt Xia also found the opportunity to squeeze back into the main room and start chatting with Li Qingshi.

Each of them brought the topic to Zhang He in a few words, and Old Man Xia also wanted to know if Zhang He was related to Xia Jiniang, so he acquiesced in their asking.

Li Qingshi thought that Aunt Li was intentionally or unintentionally matching Zhang He and Xia Jiniang, and according to his observation, if Xia Jiniang could marry Zhang He, it would be excellent, so he didn't hide much.Zhang He's background is not a secret, nor is it a topic that cannot be talked about, but he doesn't know anything about Zhang He's family affairs, he only knows that she is a family of high-ranking officials and a powerful family.

"His uncle is an official in the court, how big is that?" Third Aunt Xia asked in surprise.

"You don't care how big the official is, if you are an official in the capital, how can the rank be low?!" Second Aunt Xia said.Just relying on his official rank to be able to give Yinbu the qualifications, it means that his official rank will not be lower than the fifth rank!

They completely ignored that Zhang He was squeezed out of the family by the eldest son's elder brother, and they also forgot that she didn't even have a servant to order at this time, and even had to do the farm work herself.Just because the temptation of "someone in the family is an official" is too great, and the difference between the family of high-ranking officials and those third-class households without official power is not two households, but the sky!

The old man Xia wanted to make Xia Luo Jin a Jinshi and shine on the lintel, but he also knew that even if he got a Jinshi, he would not be able to become an official immediately. official.Even if you pass the civil examination of the Ministry of Officials, the official rank will not be too high.

Where is a big family like the Zhang family, up to Zhang Tingxuan's generation, they all entered the officialdom through their family background. Although Zhang Tingxuan was only a seventh-rank official when he obtained the qualification of Yinbu, he has already ranked among the fifth-rank officials these years. Official rank, and obtain a designated shadow compensation qualification for descendants.

Thinking of this, Old Man Xia couldn't calm down any longer. Second Aunt Xia thought of something, and secretly hated her.On the contrary, Third Aunt Xia's mind became active. Zhang He is now, and her eldest daughter is only sixteen, just at the age when she is talking about marriage...

Second Aunt Xia seemed to know what Third Aunt Xia was thinking. When the two of them hid in the room weaving, they couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Don't think about it, maybe someone has already taken a fancy to Da Niang!"

Third Aunt Xia was poured cold water by her, her heart sank, and she said unwillingly: "My Su Niang is young and beautiful, quite attractive, and there is a dowry, how can Uncle's compare?!"

Second Aunt Xia laughed: "It turns out that the third uncle's family has saved so much dowry for Erniang, and they never said anything about it. Could it be that they were coaxed by the old man?"

Third Aunt Xia glared at her angrily: "Don't talk nonsense!" Then she rolled her eyes and said softly, "Actually, from the Erbo's family, if you didn't give away the two girls back then, maybe you would have a chance too." of."

Second Aunt Xia felt a little regretful thinking of this, but Third Aunt Xia deliberately said it out to provoke her, and she left angrily, refusing to talk to her.Aunt Xia was afraid that she would meet Zhang He and express her thoughts earlier, so she followed her out.

Xia Luoyu went back to the main room with Zhang He and Xia Jiniang one step earlier, the old man Xia asked: "Who was making a lot of noise outside just now?"

"It's Kong Rong. He just came back from the academy and came to see his sister." Xia Luoyu said.

Aunt Xia was even more happy when she heard this, she felt that this was a godsend opportunity, and she must let her daughter marry Zhang He!

"Speaking of which, my aunt and that Kong Rong grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. That Kong Rong has said more than once that he wants to marry my aunt. I think he studies so hard. One day it will not be difficult to be named on the gold list. If my aunt marries him, It is also a beautiful thing!"

How could old man Xia fail to see Aunt Xia's thoughts, but he loves Xia San very much, if Xia San told him that he wanted to marry Xia Su Niang to Zhang He, he would not object much.Besides, Kong Rong is indeed expected to be a Jinshi. If Xia Jiniang marries him, the revival of the Xia family will be just around the corner!

"If these words are spread, won't it damage Ji Niang's reputation, please be careful with the third aunt of the Xia family." Li Qingshi said.

As soon as the words were finished, they saw the figures of Xia Cuishi, Xia Jiniang and Zhang He appearing in the yard, and everyone immediately stopped talking.And Aunt Xia's eyes looking at Zhang He were like gold, shining in the sun!

"By the way, why are you the only one back, Shiro, where is Su Niang?" Third Aunt Xia hurriedly asked.

The three brothers of the Xia family took Xia Sanlang Xia Luoguan, Xia Silang Xia Luoyu, Xia Wulang Xia Luosheng to work in the field, Xia Erniang Xia Su Niang went to herd cattle, and Xia San's youngest son Xia Liulang Xia Luo Zhen is studying in a private school.

Although it seems that Xia Ji Niang who is weaving at home is much more relaxed, in fact, it is her turn to do laundry for her parents today, as well as weaving and feeding chickens and ducks, so at home, she has to do no less work than others.

Xia Luoyu looked at Third Aunt Xia in confusion, usually the cows would come back after dinner, how could she ask the question knowingly?He said: "Miss Su has gone to the Xihe area. If the third aunt needs to find her, she can go there."

Third Aunt Xia was worried that there would be some uncertainties when she went to find Xia Su Niang and returned, so she could only try to keep Zhang He longer.She walked in front of Zhang He and said with a smile: "It's hot outside, Mr. Zhang's family should come in and sit down, drink water to quench your thirst and drive away the heat!"

As the saying goes: if you don't have anything to show your courtesy, you can either rape or steal.Zhang He was very wary of her behavior, and the look in her eyes made him feel uncomfortable.

"Thank you, but I'm not very thirsty." Zhang He said.

Xia Cuishi and Xia Jiniang were also puzzled by the moment, why did the atmosphere in this room become so weird?

Although Second Aunt Xia hated what Aunt Xia said, she also didn't want to see Xia Jiniang marry Zhang He, so she said to Xia Jiniang: "Just now I heard that Yu'er said that Kong Rong is back, and he will come to see you when he comes back. It can be seen that he I really love you."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Jiniang's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, while Zhang He stared at Second Aunt Xia—her words seemed to support his thoughts.

Mrs. Xu heard about Zhang He's family background from Li Qingshi's mouth. After contacting what Aunt Xia said to Old Man Xia earlier, she also had some concerns in her heart, so she secretly pulled Mrs. Xia Cui aside, and briefly explained the matter. Say it.

Xia Cui was secretly surprised, Xia Jiniang had already told her about Zhang He's life experience, but she hadn't told the rest of the family, not even Xia Da.I thought that no one would know about it, but I never thought that Li Qingshi would say it.No matter whether Li Qingshi had intentions or not, he would never have any bad intentions.

She didn't care what Aunt Xia and Aunt Xia were planning, Xia Jiniang had already told her that she had no intention of treating Zhang He, and it was true that the two were not in the same family, so they were free to plan other people's thoughts.It's just that what she saw today, Xia Jiniang didn't seem to have that much interest in Kong Rong, but the atmosphere was much more harmonious when facing Zhang He, did she really have no interest in Zhang He?

Xia Cuishi hesitated.

The sun gradually dimmed, but after a while, it was shrouded in dark clouds.Li Qingshi and Zhang He looked up at the sky, they both knew that it was going to rain soon, since spring and summer the weather has been changing, so the heavy rain is just about to fall.

"I think we have to go back." Li Qingshi said.

"Hey, it looks like it's going to rain outside. I'm afraid you'll get caught in the rain on the way back, so you'd better wait!" Aunt Xia said.As long as it is about to rain, the people working in the fields will come back, and it is time for Xia Su Niang to go back.She was happy in her heart, "This is really a blessing from heaven!"

Xia Cuishi was really worried that it would rain and they would have nowhere to hide when they walked halfway, so she also persuaded them: "Yes, the rain probably won't last for a long time, after the rain is over, you can go back!"

"But my cow..."

"Our family's cowshed is very big, if you don't mind bringing it in first!" Aunt Xia said, and then ordered Xia Luoyu, "Silang, quickly help Lord Zhang to unload the cart."

Xia Luoyu had no choice but to follow Zhang He to lead the black cow to the cowshed. At this time, all the people working in the fields of the Xia family came back because of the change in the weather.Li Qingshi and Zhang He couldn't leave now, so they could only stay.

Suddenly there were many more people in the room, Old Man Xia sent them back to his own room, and he asked Xia Da to enter the room to find out his tea leaves, and asked Xia Luojin's wife Xu to order some tea.

The so-called "ordering tea" is actually to crush the tea leaves that have been made into lumps into tea powder, then divide the tea powder into several tea cups, pour hot water into it, and stir the tea while pouring Finally blend with water.

This is the most popular tea ceremony at present, but people who work in the fields all the year round are not in the mood to order tea, and the price of tea is too expensive, they can't afford it, only people like Old Man Xia who have experienced rich clothes and fine food Will keep this habit.

Xia Luojin's wife, Xu, also learned how to order tea because of her family upbringing, and almost every time she ordered tea, it was handed over to her by Old Man Xia.Seeing that he was willing to take out the tea leaves, everyone knew that it was to entertain Zhang He, but Zhang He himself didn't know it. Looking at the milky white foam floating on the tea bowl, she thought she had got a bowl of milk tea.

The previous dynasties paid much attention to drinking tea, but now there are not many, but most of them focus on "color, aroma, and taste". It is a clear drink.Although Xia's tea-ordering tools were crude, it also showed how much he attached importance to Zhang He.

The taste of the tea brewed in this way is naturally very different from what Zhang He drank in modern times, but she herself drank tea in full accordance with the modern way, directly boiling water and soaking tea leaves for drinking.Comparing the two, she found that ordering tea can bring out the fragrance of the tea more. The taste is not to say I like it, but the fragrance lingers on the teeth and cheeks.

It was raining lightly outside the house, and Xia Su Niang also drove back with the ox. She saw the cart outside the door and the black cow in the cowshed, and she guessed that Zhang He was coming.Before entering the main room, her mother, Third Aunt Xia, called her into the tile-roofed house where the third bedroom of the Xia family lived.
