Love of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

After a tiring journey, Zhong Chu finally returned to his hometown.Zhong's father and Zhong's mother had already received the letter from him to go home, and they were waiting at the pier early.As soon as Zhong's mother saw Zhong Chu's figure, tears flowed down her cheeks. Zhong's father wiped the corners of his eyes, and supported Zhong's mother to meet him quickly.

"Father, mother, the baby is back!" Zhong Chu missed his parents very much when he was in Gusu, and often wrote home letters to tell his parents about his studies, and now he is still excited when he sees his parents.

Mother Zhong looked left and right, but no matter how she looked, it seemed that it was not enough.

"Just come back! Just come back!"

"Thin!"

Zhong Chubang has a big waist and round waist, as strong as a small mountain, and is more than a head taller than ordinary young people.

Zhong's father and Zhong's mother thought he was dark and thin, but outsiders saw him as tall and strong.Zhong Chu doesn't fit the aesthetics of jade-faced scholars these days, he doesn't look like a scholar, but a general who dominates the battlefield.

The family of three returned home, and Zhong's mother took care of everything inside and out, asking Zhong Chu if he was hungry, and asking if he was thirsty.

The Zhong family used to be a farming family, but now although there are a few maids and maidservants, they belong to the landlord, and their household registration is still a farming household.Therefore, at the beginning, Zhong Chu took tea with him, instead of eating tea powder.

Father Zhong and Zhong Chu were sitting around the table drinking tea, while a few maidservants were busy around Mother Zhong.

The two father and son watched Zhong's mother busy. She couldn't stop being excited when she saw Zhong Chu come back.

"Sister Lin went to Jia's mansion, and the master took Mrs. Zhao as his wife. Ms. Zhao is a kind person, and when she goes to the capital, my mother will be so close to her."

Zhong Chu focused on some things in Gusu, and Zhong's father was amazed frequently.

"To marry a daughter-in-law, you still have to marry a virtuous one. Look at your mother, and keep everything in order in the house. When you become prosperous in the future, you can't learn from those lords, marrying wives and concubines, and making the house a mess."

After a pause, Zhong Chu couldn't laugh or cry.Where did his father get these words from, his thoughts jumped faster than him.

"You are not too young anymore, after the township test, let your mother find a wife for you."

"Yeah, I think Xiaoqi from the boss's house is pretty good, and if his butt looks big, he's good at giving birth." When Mother Zhong heard what Father Zhong said, she stopped being busy, and sat down next to Father Zhong in agreement. "You can make a decision now, and get married after you pass the township test."

"I'm still young..." Zhong Chu really didn't know what to say. It's normal to start a family, but you can't do it casually!

He looked at Mother Zhong's appearance of wanting to talk about it, and thought of finding an excuse to slip away.

At this time, Father Zhong said: "Xiao Qi is good, but it is not suitable for us Ah Chu."

Mother Zhong thought about it carefully, and it was true that in the future when Zhong Chu became an official, all the people he made friends with were high-ranking officials, not to mention others, even Lin Ruhai was also a person of status.If she married Xiaoqi or any girl from the village, she might end up staying in her boudoir, making it difficult to socialize with others.

Zhong Chu is a big man, and he can't take her to teach her how to deal with these things in the midst of his wife's family.

But if you marry Song Xiucai's daughter, no, no, no, no, no, no, Song Xiucai's daughter is five years older than Zhong Chu, and she has children.

"I think your master's daughter is fine. She's young now, so she'll settle first and get married when she's done. You're a boy, so it's not too late to wait a few years."

Mother Zhong suddenly thought of Daiyu for some reason. The ice-snow and smart Daiyu is very likable, with a small mouth and sweet personality, and a pleasing personality.

Lin Ruhai is such an outstanding person, and also Zhong Chu's master, if the two families can get married, they will get closer...

"Mother!" Looking at Mother Zhong in shock, there was a feeling that the person in front of her was being pierced by Lin Ruhai's soul.

Before he left Gusu, Lin Ruhai cryptically expressed his regret that he would let Daiyu marry him if he was too old. When he came back, Mother Zhong brought up the matter again, and Father Zhong still nodded in agreement!

She took a sip of tea silently to calm herself down. Before Daiyu said that she wanted to marry him, it could be said that she was talking like a child, but the elder also said that it was a little embarrassing.He is not a prostitute, although he thinks that Daiyu is very good, but it is only hurting when he is his own sister, how can he be a wife candidate!

This matter needs to find an excuse to prevaricate, who knows if his mother will act swiftly and resolutely!

Zhong Chu hurriedly pretended to be tired and sleepy. Mother Zhong saw that she couldn't think about her daughter-in-law, so she asked people to put the hot soup that had been prepared in the house, and let Zhong Chu go to rest.

Zhong Chu touched his nose in embarrassment and left. Father Zhong looked at his back thoughtfully.

"I'll write to Ru Hai to ask about this matter." Father Zhong held Mother Zhong's hand and said softly.

"???" Looking blankly at his master, Mother Zhong didn't realize it for a moment, and it took a while before she became elated.

"I'm not sure about this matter, so don't tell Ah Chu yet." Zhong's father made a final decision on the matter, and the two elders communicated with each other first, not telling the younger generation.If you become a relative, you will get closer, but if you are not a junior, you can get by on the face.

Mother Zhong happily agreed, but in her heart she directly regarded Daiyu as her prospective daughter-in-law.Called the servant girl to come in, and asked people to take out the heads stored in their warehouse.

"What are you doing with those things?" Father Zhong was just about to go out to chat with his old friends to show off his son, and he asked curiously when he saw Mother Zhong making others look good.

He knew that mother of Zhong let people take the crown. When Zhong Chu was ten years old, he picked the material and carved it by himself, and it took a year to carve it carefully.Don't talk about wearing it normally, even the maids and women are not allowed to touch her, she is the one who takes care of this trick herself.

The Zhong family started to make a fortune when Zhong Chu was five years old, but when the Zhong family had spare money, they bought fields and shops. The shop was watched over, and the fields were rented out.Just keep a vegetable field in front of the house to grow vegetables, and this is how Zhong Chu delivered vegetables to the Lin family.

As for the gift from Zhong Chu's apprentice, it looks shabby, but in fact, that inkstone is a high-quality Duan inkstone, and whoever uses it will know.

"Give it to my daughter-in-law." The daughter-in-law was the first to call.

Father Zhong ignored her impatience, and only told her: "You just need to know about this, don't let others know, otherwise, it will ruin the girl's reputation."

"Don't you know me? I sent it over and said that I love my daughter. I didn't say a word about the rest."

Mother Zhong impatiently waved her hand to tell Father Zhong, an eyesore old man, to leave quickly, while she patiently waited for her baby lump.

The head carved by the son himself is given to the daughter-in-law, which is not too much for her.

When this matter was brought up, Zhong's mother always thought about it, and often asked Zhong's father in the dead of night if Lin Ruhai replied to the letter, and if he agreed.

Father Zhong was annoyed by her harassment, and asked her to pay more attention to Zhong Chu's diet and daily life, so that the bamboo basket would be empty.

Just when Zhong's mother was thinking about her daughter-in-law all day long, and Zhong's father was annoyed by her and went fishing by the river all day long, the rural examination came as scheduled.

Due to the continuous examination for several days and the severe heat, the Zhong family and his wife went to wait outside the examination room in person every day. Whenever they saw someone being carried out, they would go up to check for corruption in fear. Seeing that it was not Zhong Chu, they breathed a sigh of relief and continued the cycle. back and forth.

Although Zhong Chu knew that his parents would be worried, he didn't know that they were particularly worried.He is big and strong, and he has been specially trained. His physique is different from ordinary people. Except for a little unbearable in the hot weather, the rest is adapted to normal.

The grid assigned by Zhong Chu is pretty good, the first one to enter.It was a hot day, and the examinees were all solving their physical problems in the chamber pot on the spot, and the smell made people dizzy.

Zhong Chu read the paper carefully on the first day. Because there were three days, he first wrote it on the manuscript paper and checked it several times to make sure that there were no mistakes or taboos. He started on the third day. Transcribe.

Shooting the head of the bird, a commoner, showing his sharpness too much before he has absolute self-protection ability is no different from sticking his neck under someone else's machete.

Now is not the 21st century. If you are popular, you will become an Internet celebrity, and with it comes various interests. Now it is a feudal society. If you are too prominent, you will only be on the cusp.

Zhong Chu didn't want others to pay too much attention to him. Being able to take the top spot in the exam and being in the limelight during the exam were two different things.He obediently waited for the three-day exam period to arrive, and opened the door after collecting the papers, and was the first to rush out.

It's really that he can't stand the smell anymore, and several adults who have even passed the exam also have strange expressions, and their duty is to bear the smell of urine.When I got outside, I let the hot wind blow away the fishy smell from my body, and then I walked towards the Zhong family couple who had been waiting not far away.

Zhong's father and Zhong's mother lost a lot of weight, and Zhong Chu felt guilty, but he also knew that he could repay their concern only by going up.

He was no longer obsessed with this matter, and left the examination room with Zhong's father and Zhong's mother.There are too many people, there will be more later, it is better to leave first.

"Ah Chu, don't think about anything, go back and take a hot bath, and get a good night's sleep. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Thanks to Zhong's father and Zhong's mother's open-mindedness, the other parents always pay attention to how their child is doing in the exam. Even if Zhong's father and Zhong's mother want to know, they take care of him first.

Zhong Chu said firmly: "Don't talk about the top of the list, you will definitely be in the top [-]."

"Good! Good! Good!"

At home, Zhong Chu was first driven to take a bath, and then dragged to eat.Mother Zhong was worried that he would be hungry and that he would accumulate food later, she was so entangled that she didn't know what to do.

Father Zhong hurriedly pulled her, and only then did the old wife find the backbone.

Zhong Chu hooked the corners of his lips, and there was a smile in his eyes.
