Yangcheng
Chapter 69
"What kind of sister is this?!"
After coming out of the front hall, Tong Shaoxuan took the food box and Tang Jianwei to the nearby bamboo forest to question.
But Tang Jianwei saluted her: "Why are you not a sister? How did I offend Tong Changsi? Please give Tong Changsi some pointers."
Tong Shaoxuan pointed to the bright red lip marks on his cheeks: "You treat sisters like this?"
"My eldest sister and I kiss each other all day, but it's more than just a little bit close."
"You and your elder sister are real sisters, can they be the same?"
"What's wrong with my sister? Faxiao and I are so close."
"Fa Xiao? Are you talking about Wu Xianrong?" Tong Shaoxuan couldn't accept it, "You and a friend who is not blood relatives are kissing all day long? Tang Jianwei, you really opened my eyes."
Tong Shaoxuan's words were obviously provocative. Tang Jianwei was annoyed, but he didn't want to lose at all. He sneered and said:
"That's right, Azi and I have been close since we were young, just kissing, is that a thing?"
"I think you have an unusual relationship with her, but you're just deceiving yourself. Who in a normal person would touch a friend?"
No matter what Tong Shaoxuan said, Tang Jianwei kept the same curved smile and said unhurriedly:
"I don't have any hands and feet. I just moved my mouth. And Tong Changsi, you are only in your teens, but your mind is full of old ideas, which is too narrow. We Boling people are like this, using an intimate way Why not express affection? I am from Boling, so I naturally have this habit. Since we are already married, I don’t bother to hide it anymore. I advise you to get used to it quickly.”
"Accustomed to what? Are you used to your hands, feet and mouth?"
"If you want me to do something else, I don't mind."
Tong Shaoxuan didn't want to talk to her anymore, so he waved his sleeves and walked away angrily.
Seeing Tong Shaoxuan being angry with her, Tang Jianwei finally found the happiness that he had at the beginning of teasing Tong Shaoxuan and standing on the high ground of absolute dominance.
And the joy this time is full of the joy of winning a big victory and going to a higher level.
Tang Jianwei looked at the back of Tong Shaoxuan who was walking briskly, and snorted:
"It can't cure you anymore."
Tong Shaoxuan returned to the house, still holding the six-layer food box that Tang Jianwei gave her in his hand, he put it on the case without opening it, and went directly to pack the clothes and daily expenses.
Ji Xue heard that she was going out, so she knocked on the door to help her clean up.
As soon as Ji Xue entered the door, she saw a food box that looked like a small tower.
"What is this?" Ji Xue was immediately attracted by this beautiful and magnificent box.
Without raising his head, Tong Shaoxuan said casually, "This is the food Tang Jianwei prepared for me."
"So that's the case, Young Madam is really caring. It's really not easy to prepare so much food."
Tong Shaoxuan continued to pack his things without saying a word.
Ji Xue saw that her clothes were folded in a mess. If she really closed the bag like this, the clothes would turn into lumps of pickles when she took them out again.Ji Xue unfolded them one by one and folded them up again, laying them flat according to their size and thickness.
"How should I carry this food box?" Ji Xue was a little troubled, "It's too big to fit in the bag."
"It's okay, I don't necessarily have to bring it anyway."
"Why not?" Ji Xue was a little confused.
Tong Shaoxuan pursed her lips and didn't answer, Ji Xue was very sensible and didn't ask any more, she understood in her heart that the young couple probably quarreled again.
After helping Tong Shaoxuan pack his bags, Ji Xue left Tong Shaoxuan's bedroom, walked to the door of Tang Guanqiu's room, and knocked lightly on the door.
"Jing, are you asleep?"
Tang Guanqiu did not respond to her, the door was opened, and the face of Zitan appeared in front of her.
Since moving to the east courtyard with Tang Jianwei, it is impossible for Tang Jianwei, as a bride, to live in the same room with her sister, but her sister must be taken care of.
During the wedding days, many relatives came to the Tongfu, and the room was very tight, so Zitan was asked to move in with Tang Guanqiu, which would free up more guest rooms, and at the same time take care of Tang Guanqiu's daily life more conveniently.
"Didn't you just come here this morning? Why are you here again?" Zitan didn't fully open the door, looking at Ji Xue warily.
Ji Xue said: "Yesterday, I made an appointment with Ah Jing, and today I came to help her comb her hair."
"I can also comb my hair, so why do you need to come here?"
"It's different, you don't understand Ah Jing's favorite bun."
"I don't understand? I have served the two sisters in the Tang family since I was a child. Is there anything about the eldest lady that I don't understand?"
Zitan blocked the door, as if Ji Xue was about to fight her desperately when she came in.
During this period of time, Zitan has observed carefully, and Ji Xue came to Tang Guanqiu too frequently.Zitan usually has to help Tang Jianwei process the ingredients and go out of the stall with her. There is no way to stay with Tang Guanqiu all the time, so there is nothing to say about Ji Xue taking the initiative to take care of her.
It was someone else's kindness, and she had to thank her a lot.
But it's one thing to come to take care of Tang Guanqiu, another thing to cuddle him.
Several times, Zitan accidentally saw Ji Xue standing behind Tang Guanqiu helping her comb her hair, while Tang Guanqiu leaned back in her arms and smiled at her. A pair of fairy couples.
At the beginning, Zitan comforted Tang Jianwei and told Tang Jianwei not to think too much. After all, not all women feel that way about another woman.
But when she saw the intimate scene of Ji Xue and Tang Guanqiu with her own eyes, for some reason, she felt a serious discomfort in her heart.
Ji Xue is not good at arguing with others, every time she faces this violent little lady from Boling, she will feel a little tired.
"Although I don't know why you are so hostile to me." Ji Xue showed a rare smile, "But don't worry, I won't take it to heart."
Rosewood: "..."
It seemed that Zitan would not let her in, so Ji Xue stopped making fun of herself and planned to leave.
"Shen Yue!"
Just when Zitan was about to leave, Tang Guanqiu put down the book in his hand, ran over and grabbed her hand and said:
"Where are you going? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Zitan: "Big lady..."
Ji Xue glanced at Zitan, and Zitan looked at Tang Guanqiu holding Ji Xue's hands tightly.
Tang Guanqiu pulled Ji Xue and refused to let go, forcing her to enter the house.
Zitan couldn't say "this person is not Shen Yue", if the eldest lady was irritated by these words, Sanniang would have to peel her skin.
Zitan had no choice but to give up the position at the door of the room, implying that Ji Xue could come in.
When Ji Xue was dragged into the room by Tang Guanqiu, Zitan couldn't help but whisper in her ear:
"Does pretending to be someone else make you happy?"
Every spring is the best season in the southeast.
The annual outing of Bailu Academy will take students to places outside Su County for a field trip, which is one of the most important activities of the academy.
In addition to enjoying the spring and cultivating sentiments, the old alumni of the academy may also be invited to play together.
So everyone tacitly agreed in their hearts that cultivating their sentiments is only secondary, and the most anticipated highlight is still these mysterious old alumni.
Bailu Academy is one of the four well-known academies in Angzhou. Every year, there are many Jinshi and No. [-] titles in Bailu Academy. Therefore, the old alumni invited by Bailu Academy every year are very familiar with the imperial examinations and experienced in the imperial examinations. Some of the masters of all battles have already served in the court for many years.Having their experience imparted will definitely be of great benefit to the students' career path.
Last year, their academy invited Si Ping from the Ministry of Industry, and it was precisely because of the influence of this senior that Tong Shaoxuan's blood became passionate after hearing it, which aroused her desire to go to Boling to explore the breadth of the world.
Regarding the annual spring activities, Bailu College does not force all students to participate. After all, students who participate need to pay one tael for travel expenses and accommodation expenses. It is not cheap, and not every family can afford it.
But anyone who enters Bailu Academy and wants to study naturally wholeheartedly wants to become an official. With such a good opportunity in front of him, no matter how hard it is, many people will save a few taels of money.
During the first lunar month, Bai Erniang ran outside every day, running around non-stop for this tael of silver.
She put the flowers and potted plants on the trolley, cheekily, went door to door asking if she needed to buy them. After a day, she was so tired that her hands were bleeding blisters. She didn't tell Ye Niang that she just didn't want to burden Ye Niang, so she saved it by herself. I paid for the spring outing.
Thank God, I finally got together a tael of silver before the spring outing.
Bai Erniang couldn't breathe a sigh of relief even though she counted the money. Although the money for the spring outing in the academy was collected, she still received an invitation from Sister Ah Shen for the Shangsi Festival on March [-]. The days of enjoying flowers and playing are the days of spending money. Erniang will continue to make money after returning from the spring outing.
The spring outing team is about to start, and Tong Shaoxuan's class has basically participated. Mr. Kong looked at the roster of registration, only the last person's name has not been circled.
Mr. Kong asked Mr. Meng: "Shi Ruzhuo hasn't registered yet?"
"It's true that she is the only one missing. Should we continue to wait or come to ask?"
"I know the situation of Shi's family. Shi Ruzhuo has a younger brother who is an idiot. The family relies on a small steamed stuffed bun shop to make ends meet. The meager money her mother earns is used in the small shop. Erlang's soup is ready, I'm afraid a tael of silver will be difficult for their family. Money is a matter of face, why should we come to ask and cause trouble?"
Mr. Meng nodded: "Then don't look for her, let's set off on time in the afternoon. The carriage has already been booked, so there is no need to delay. If you can't reach the planned post today, you can only sleep in the countryside."
All the students gathered in the college with their luggage. Everyone was very excited and talked about which alumni they would meet this year.
Ge Xunqing found that almost everyone in the class had arrived, but Shi Ruzhuo was not seen.
Ge Xunqing said to Bai Erniang: "Isn't she coming?"
Bai Erniang said: "Perhaps... Did she not come for the spring outing last year?"
Ge Xunqing sighed "It's a pity", and looked at Tong Shaoxuan, and found that Tong Shaoxuan was looking into her purse with a look of surprise.
"Chang Si is counting silver?" Ge Xunqing snickered, "How many taels did my sister-in-law put in for you? Tell us singles to envy you?"
Tong Shaoxuan tightened his purse, his hands trembling a little.
In the purse, besides some broken silver, there is also a stack of banknotes...the face value of the banknotes is 50 taels.
What the hell is Tang Jianwei doing again? !
With the help of Ji Xue, Tong Shaoxuan packed his bags and prepared to go out.
Everyone walked out of the bedroom, walked around in the bamboo forest and came back, and finally brought the six-layer gorgeous food box with them.
She didn't soften her heart because Tang Jianwei had been doing it all morning.
She understood the preciousness of food since she was a child, and she would never waste it easily. She brought the food box out of diligence and thrift. Yes, it had nothing to do with Tang Jianwei himself.
Tong Shaoxuan carried the food box and went out again, almost bumping into someone head-on.
Tong Shaoxuan subconsciously hugged the food box tightly to prevent it from being knocked over, but he heard a playful laugh:
"It turns out that sister Changsi likes the food made by others very much."
"..."
I was so desperate that I met Tang Jianwei again before going out.
"Didn't you go to deal with the mutton?"
"Yeah, can't people come back to rest after the processing?" Tang Jian gently pointed to the first layer of the food box, "I've arranged the food in order of how long it can be stored, you can just eat it from top to bottom .As long as the bottom layer is eaten on the last day, it will all be within the expiry date."
"En." Tong Shaoxuan said in a muffled voice, "Thank you."
It sounded a little unwilling, but Tang Jianwei found out that no matter how upset this child was, he still had the same etiquette that he should have.
Still kinda cute.
Tong Shaoxuan was about to leave, Tang Jianwei said "Hey" and came forward to hand her a purse.
Tong Shaoxuan frowned, and didn't ask for it: "How do you give me this thing? I have it myself."
Tang Jian took a slight look at the small pouch on her waist, stretched out his hand and said, "Let me see how much money you have."
"Why should I give you... hello!"
Instead of dawdling with her, Tang Jianwei snatched it from her hand as fast as he could, opened it, and, oh, the familiar shabby copper coins.
"When I rescued you to the hospital, I wanted to touch your pocket to pay for the medicine. The situation is exactly the same as now."
Tang Jian smiled slightly.
Tong Shaoxuan was very embarrassed and didn't want to mention this past event to her: "Today's situation is just special."
"What's so special, because you spent all your money on the renovation of the bathroom before?"
"..."
Tong Shaoxuan was silent for a moment, and said in his heart: Why do you ask deliberately when you know.
"In order to allow me to take a comfortable hot bath, our Anian is really generous."
"..."
It turned out that she said that on purpose to embarrass her.
Never underestimate the thickness of Tang Jianwei's skin.
"It turned out that I spent all my money to make me comfortable. You should accept my money now, right? Otherwise, it would appear that I have no conscience."
"I followed the gentlemen of the academy all the way, and I have already spent one or two taels of silver. It doesn't cost much at all."
"Haven't you ever heard of a saying called the road to wealth for a poor family? No matter what, bring money with you for emergencies." Tang Jianwei forced her purse into her,
"If you don't want my money right now, we'll have to haggle over every detail in our lives later on. It's too troublesome. Take it, it's not much money, don't save it all for me."
In fact, Tong Shaoxuan didn't think about how much silver was in the purse, nor did he seriously explore it, but just lifted it with his fingers, and the weight seemed to be a few taels smaller.
Unexpectedly... there are silver tickets.
This is really too exaggerated, what should I do if I am targeted by robbers with so much money on the road? !
Tong Shaoxuan was a little flustered as he had never taken so much money alone since he was a child.
However, I felt a little relieved when I thought that the academy was taking dozens of people with me, and I was still walking the peaceful official way.
It's just that Tong Shaoxuan's attitude towards Tang Jianwei is even more unclear. He doesn't know whether Tang Jianwei hates himself at the moment, or...
Tong Shaoxuan put the purse away, and Mr. Kong, Mr. Meng and the other six teachers of the academy counted the heads according to the registration list.After confirming that everyone is here, they set off for the station.
They need to walk to the post station, take the official carriage parked at the post station, and go to the next post station.
Nowadays, the inns on the official road are all run by the government, and you will not encounter black shops. Although the environment is not luxurious, at least it can reach a comfortable level. Relatively speaking, the price is relatively low, which is a very suitable choice for travelers.
When I was going to the post station, I happened to pass Liusao's steamed stuffed bun shop. Ge Xunqing, who had eyes on the top of her head, often looked around. After she glanced in the direction of the steamed stuffed bun shop, she let out a "hey":
"Why does Shi Ruzhuo let his younger brother watch the shop?"
When she said this, Tong Shaoxuan Bai Erniang and the rest of her classmates looked over, and it was indeed Shi Ruzhuo's younger brother Shi Rumo who was looking at the shop.
Shi Rumo was only a little taller than the pavement, and was holding buns for others.
Although the movements are not as agile as ordinary children, but the serious appearance is not wrong.
"Thank you." After selling the buns, he smiled shyly at the customer.
Tong Shaoxuan remembered that this younger brother was terribly afraid of people before, hiding behind her sister and seeing no one at all, it is a rare thing that he would watch the shop here alone today.
Could it be that Tang Jianwei's consolation to him that day had an effect?
"Speaking of which, it seems that Shi Ruzhuo is the only one in our class who didn't sign up?"
"Yeah, I didn't even see her, what's the matter?"
"Don't ask nonsense, everyone has their own difficulties at home."
"Really? It's only a tael of silver. If you don't participate, it will be too bad. How will she take the exam in the future?"
The classmates were talking to each other, a middle-aged man came to the bun shop and asked Shi Rumo the price of the buns.
Shi Rumo was a little frightened, but he mustered up his courage, snapped his fingers, and said softly and slowly:
"The ones with meat stuffing cost five cents for two, the ones with vegetarian stuffing cost three cents for two... Uncle, which one do you want to buy?"
The middle-aged man seemed to see that Shi Rumo was different from ordinary children, so he thought of teasing him:
"Oh, then I want five meat and six vegetarian ones, how much is the total?"
"Five, six..." Shi Rumo was immediately confused by his question, and couldn't figure it out even with his fingers.
The man urged impatiently: "Hurry up, I don't have time to wait for you. If you can't figure it out again, I can just take the buns and leave."
When he said this, Shi Rumo became even more anxious, his face flushed, and he pulled the other side and said:
"Uncle, wait a minute. My mother and sister will come back after buying flour."
"Who has time to wait? Come on! How much!"
The middle-aged man made up his mind to beat the little fool with a bamboo pole. Seeing that he still couldn't figure it out, he grabbed the bun and was about to leave. When he turned around, he was stopped by a group of students.
Tong Shaoxuan said: "Two steamed stuffed buns with meat stuffing cost five cents, and if you buy five, the fifth one can only be counted as three cents, a total of thirteen coins. Add six vegetarian stuffings, a total of twenty-two coins. Put down the money and get the buns, or you'll be robbed!"
Before the man could respond, dozens of people were already chattering:
"How old is he, yet he still cheats on children's buns, how shameless he is."
"I know who he is, the brother of Wang Wu who sells mutton! He spends his days idle and doesn't look for a job. He knows how to cheat and cheat all day long, and he has no shame!"
The middle-aged man was so ashamed and flustered by a group of young ladies, he dropped his bun and ran away without looking back.
At this time, Sister-in-law Six and Shi Ruzhuo came back facing each other, seeing a large group of people gathered in front of their shop, they didn't know what happened, so they rushed over immediately.
Sister-in-law Six squeezed into the crowd, nervously holding her son in her arms, and was about to question the situation, but found that these people seemed to be students of White Deer College.
Shi Ruzhuo saw that they were leaving for a spring outing, and for some reason passed by her shop, immediately lowered his head, without saying hello to his classmates, passed through the crowd, and put the heavy noodles in the shop.
Ge Xunqing was straightforward, and when she saw Shi Ruzhuo, she asked her:
"Hey? Gongyu, you don't plan to go on a spring outing with us? The old alumni invited by the academy this year are quite famous officials. If you don't come, you will regret it later."
When Ge Xunqing said this, everyone was extremely embarrassed.
Bai Erniang trembled all over, she was most afraid of this kind of death dialogue, she wished she could sew Ge Xunqing's mouth shut.
After listening to her words, the sixth sister-in-law asked her daughter in bewilderment:
"What spring outing? What celebrity? Why haven't you mentioned it to me?"
Shi Ruzhuo said in a muffled voice, "It's not something important."
The sixth sister-in-law was not reconciled, so she went to ask Mr. Kong.
Mr. Kong had no choice but to tell the truth.
Only now did Ge Xunqing figure out what it was like, and she pulled Tong Shaoxuan's sleeve and said:
"Did I get into trouble?"
Tong Shaoxuan was also like Bai Erniang, almost unable to stand up in embarrassment: "Otherwise?"
"Changsi, help!"
"How can I save you from the disaster you caused yourself?"
"On weekdays, you have the most ghost ideas. If you don't save me, how will it end?"
"What is a ghost idea..."
"And I take good care of my sister-in-law's business. She earned more than a dozen taels of silver from me just for doing homework! And I eat fried dough sticks when she sells fried dough sticks, and I also go to the skewers when she sells them! If my sister-in-law opened a restaurant, I’m afraid I’d already be a VIP! Please, Tong Changsi, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!”
Tong Shaoxuan was so quarreled by her that he wanted to say straight - you went to Tang Jianwei to save you!Don't call her sister-in-law!She and I are already sisters now, I think it's better to call her sister directly next time I come to the door!
Ge Xunqing is here endlessly. In fact, Tong Shaoxuan also thought that the opportunity of spring outing was very rare. After all, the rules of the imperial examination are complicated nowadays. It's wishful thinking if you want to get into the imperial examination with an iron head.
If Shi Ruzhuo can't come, the road to the imperial examination in the future may be much more difficult than others.
and……
Tong Shaoxuan looked at Shi Rumo, remembering that Tang Jianwei seemed to have some pity for this child before.
She couldn't express what was in her heart, but the clearest thing was that she was willing to resolve the crisis for Sister-in-law Six's family.
Sixth sister-in-law was speechless for a while after hearing Mr. Kong's words.
It's true that their family can't get a tael of silver.
Sixth Sister-in-Law looked back at her daughter sadly, Shi Ruzhuo stepped forward, holding her mother's hand and was about to walk in, but she heard Tong Shaoxuan say:
"Sir, don't we have dinner yet? I don't think there are any suitable restaurants to go outside. Why don't we just buy some steamed buns from Sister-in-law Liu's steamed stuffed bun shop as rations, which are also convenient to carry."
Mr. Kong and Mr. Meng hesitated for a while, and soon understood what Tong Shaoxuan meant.
Before the gentlemen could say anything, Tong Shaoxuan stepped forward and said to Mrs. Six:
"Sister-in-law Liu, please put the steamed stuffed bun in the shop into a pocket for me. We have to take it on the way and eat it."
Ge Xunqing shouted "Wonderful" in her heart, and immediately stepped forward to agree.
What a clever person Six Sister-in-law is, how could she fail to see what these female students meant.
The sixth sister-in-law who tried her best to sharpen her head to make money was a little ashamed at the moment:
"There are so many buns, how can you finish them all?"
Tong Shaoxuan said: "Not only us, but also the students in the men's department. They eat a lot. I guess these are not enough."
Speaking of which, Tong Shaoxuan took out a tael of silver and handed it to the sixth sister-in-law, who hurriedly said, "I can't find it!"
"It's okay, you don't need to look for it." Tong Shaoxuan pulled the sixth sister-in-law to the side, and told her privately as far as they could hear, "Half of it is for buying buns, and the other half is for Tang Jianwei to help cut the mutton." Yes. She is too busy cutting mutton by herself on weekdays, so you can help me when you have time."
The sixth sister-in-law couldn't help but feel a pain in the back of her head when she heard the words "Tang Jianwei", but she could still see the kindness of the little lady, and she was very moved.
With this tael of silver, Shi Ruzhuo can go on a spring outing!
Her daughter can also let go of the burden of life, enjoy the fun of mountains and rivers happily, and go to play with her peers!
The sixth sister-in-law's eyes were red, and she pulled Shi Ruzhuo to thank Tong Shaoxuan a thousand times.
Shi Ruzhuo didn't expect that she had never spoken to Tong Shaoxuan on weekdays, and even had an affair, but she was willing to help him.
She was indeed very eager to participate in the spring outing, but her family was poor, so she could only keep her mouth shut. She never mentioned it in front of A Niang, just because she was afraid that A Niang would feel uncomfortable.
Now that there is such a coincidence, even though both parties are a little embarrassed, she feels that she should not care about that useless face.
She respectfully saluted Tong Shaoxuan: "Thank you Changsi. I will remember Changsi's help today."
Tong Shaoxuan didn't want to say anything, because he didn't want his classmates to feel that he owed him favors. When Shi Ruzhuo handed him over like this, his face immediately turned red, and he said hastily:
"There's nothing to be thankful for. I just feel sorry for my wife because I can't take care of my family when I'm away from home. I just paid you to hire you, sister-in-law six. Then, I will trouble sister-in-law six in the next few days."
The sixth sister-in-law asked her to put 1 hearts at ease, and by the way, she praised:
"You two young wives are really very affectionate."
Tong Shaoxuan smiled stiffly, and said in the direction of Tong's mansion:
Tang Jianwei, oh Tang Jianwei, take a good look, I am so magnanimous, which is completely different from your narrow-mindedness who is sure to get revenge!
The few days when I left just happened to make you think about it.
You have no one to hug tonight, so don't lose sleep.
That night, Tong Shaoxuan, who slept in the Datong bunk with his classmates, opened his eyes until dawn.
The bed was so hard, the room was so cold, Ge Xunqing's snoring almost knocked the roof down.
Tong Shao huddled in his quilt, his arms were empty, empty and lonely.
angry...
I really miss Tang Jianwei.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Tang Jianwei: Alright, I will pull out the flag for you first, and I will win this round, 1-0 to 1 in every sense.
Tong Shaoxuan: ...
------------------
After coming out of the front hall, Tong Shaoxuan took the food box and Tang Jianwei to the nearby bamboo forest to question.
But Tang Jianwei saluted her: "Why are you not a sister? How did I offend Tong Changsi? Please give Tong Changsi some pointers."
Tong Shaoxuan pointed to the bright red lip marks on his cheeks: "You treat sisters like this?"
"My eldest sister and I kiss each other all day, but it's more than just a little bit close."
"You and your elder sister are real sisters, can they be the same?"
"What's wrong with my sister? Faxiao and I are so close."
"Fa Xiao? Are you talking about Wu Xianrong?" Tong Shaoxuan couldn't accept it, "You and a friend who is not blood relatives are kissing all day long? Tang Jianwei, you really opened my eyes."
Tong Shaoxuan's words were obviously provocative. Tang Jianwei was annoyed, but he didn't want to lose at all. He sneered and said:
"That's right, Azi and I have been close since we were young, just kissing, is that a thing?"
"I think you have an unusual relationship with her, but you're just deceiving yourself. Who in a normal person would touch a friend?"
No matter what Tong Shaoxuan said, Tang Jianwei kept the same curved smile and said unhurriedly:
"I don't have any hands and feet. I just moved my mouth. And Tong Changsi, you are only in your teens, but your mind is full of old ideas, which is too narrow. We Boling people are like this, using an intimate way Why not express affection? I am from Boling, so I naturally have this habit. Since we are already married, I don’t bother to hide it anymore. I advise you to get used to it quickly.”
"Accustomed to what? Are you used to your hands, feet and mouth?"
"If you want me to do something else, I don't mind."
Tong Shaoxuan didn't want to talk to her anymore, so he waved his sleeves and walked away angrily.
Seeing Tong Shaoxuan being angry with her, Tang Jianwei finally found the happiness that he had at the beginning of teasing Tong Shaoxuan and standing on the high ground of absolute dominance.
And the joy this time is full of the joy of winning a big victory and going to a higher level.
Tang Jianwei looked at the back of Tong Shaoxuan who was walking briskly, and snorted:
"It can't cure you anymore."
Tong Shaoxuan returned to the house, still holding the six-layer food box that Tang Jianwei gave her in his hand, he put it on the case without opening it, and went directly to pack the clothes and daily expenses.
Ji Xue heard that she was going out, so she knocked on the door to help her clean up.
As soon as Ji Xue entered the door, she saw a food box that looked like a small tower.
"What is this?" Ji Xue was immediately attracted by this beautiful and magnificent box.
Without raising his head, Tong Shaoxuan said casually, "This is the food Tang Jianwei prepared for me."
"So that's the case, Young Madam is really caring. It's really not easy to prepare so much food."
Tong Shaoxuan continued to pack his things without saying a word.
Ji Xue saw that her clothes were folded in a mess. If she really closed the bag like this, the clothes would turn into lumps of pickles when she took them out again.Ji Xue unfolded them one by one and folded them up again, laying them flat according to their size and thickness.
"How should I carry this food box?" Ji Xue was a little troubled, "It's too big to fit in the bag."
"It's okay, I don't necessarily have to bring it anyway."
"Why not?" Ji Xue was a little confused.
Tong Shaoxuan pursed her lips and didn't answer, Ji Xue was very sensible and didn't ask any more, she understood in her heart that the young couple probably quarreled again.
After helping Tong Shaoxuan pack his bags, Ji Xue left Tong Shaoxuan's bedroom, walked to the door of Tang Guanqiu's room, and knocked lightly on the door.
"Jing, are you asleep?"
Tang Guanqiu did not respond to her, the door was opened, and the face of Zitan appeared in front of her.
Since moving to the east courtyard with Tang Jianwei, it is impossible for Tang Jianwei, as a bride, to live in the same room with her sister, but her sister must be taken care of.
During the wedding days, many relatives came to the Tongfu, and the room was very tight, so Zitan was asked to move in with Tang Guanqiu, which would free up more guest rooms, and at the same time take care of Tang Guanqiu's daily life more conveniently.
"Didn't you just come here this morning? Why are you here again?" Zitan didn't fully open the door, looking at Ji Xue warily.
Ji Xue said: "Yesterday, I made an appointment with Ah Jing, and today I came to help her comb her hair."
"I can also comb my hair, so why do you need to come here?"
"It's different, you don't understand Ah Jing's favorite bun."
"I don't understand? I have served the two sisters in the Tang family since I was a child. Is there anything about the eldest lady that I don't understand?"
Zitan blocked the door, as if Ji Xue was about to fight her desperately when she came in.
During this period of time, Zitan has observed carefully, and Ji Xue came to Tang Guanqiu too frequently.Zitan usually has to help Tang Jianwei process the ingredients and go out of the stall with her. There is no way to stay with Tang Guanqiu all the time, so there is nothing to say about Ji Xue taking the initiative to take care of her.
It was someone else's kindness, and she had to thank her a lot.
But it's one thing to come to take care of Tang Guanqiu, another thing to cuddle him.
Several times, Zitan accidentally saw Ji Xue standing behind Tang Guanqiu helping her comb her hair, while Tang Guanqiu leaned back in her arms and smiled at her. A pair of fairy couples.
At the beginning, Zitan comforted Tang Jianwei and told Tang Jianwei not to think too much. After all, not all women feel that way about another woman.
But when she saw the intimate scene of Ji Xue and Tang Guanqiu with her own eyes, for some reason, she felt a serious discomfort in her heart.
Ji Xue is not good at arguing with others, every time she faces this violent little lady from Boling, she will feel a little tired.
"Although I don't know why you are so hostile to me." Ji Xue showed a rare smile, "But don't worry, I won't take it to heart."
Rosewood: "..."
It seemed that Zitan would not let her in, so Ji Xue stopped making fun of herself and planned to leave.
"Shen Yue!"
Just when Zitan was about to leave, Tang Guanqiu put down the book in his hand, ran over and grabbed her hand and said:
"Where are you going? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Zitan: "Big lady..."
Ji Xue glanced at Zitan, and Zitan looked at Tang Guanqiu holding Ji Xue's hands tightly.
Tang Guanqiu pulled Ji Xue and refused to let go, forcing her to enter the house.
Zitan couldn't say "this person is not Shen Yue", if the eldest lady was irritated by these words, Sanniang would have to peel her skin.
Zitan had no choice but to give up the position at the door of the room, implying that Ji Xue could come in.
When Ji Xue was dragged into the room by Tang Guanqiu, Zitan couldn't help but whisper in her ear:
"Does pretending to be someone else make you happy?"
Every spring is the best season in the southeast.
The annual outing of Bailu Academy will take students to places outside Su County for a field trip, which is one of the most important activities of the academy.
In addition to enjoying the spring and cultivating sentiments, the old alumni of the academy may also be invited to play together.
So everyone tacitly agreed in their hearts that cultivating their sentiments is only secondary, and the most anticipated highlight is still these mysterious old alumni.
Bailu Academy is one of the four well-known academies in Angzhou. Every year, there are many Jinshi and No. [-] titles in Bailu Academy. Therefore, the old alumni invited by Bailu Academy every year are very familiar with the imperial examinations and experienced in the imperial examinations. Some of the masters of all battles have already served in the court for many years.Having their experience imparted will definitely be of great benefit to the students' career path.
Last year, their academy invited Si Ping from the Ministry of Industry, and it was precisely because of the influence of this senior that Tong Shaoxuan's blood became passionate after hearing it, which aroused her desire to go to Boling to explore the breadth of the world.
Regarding the annual spring activities, Bailu College does not force all students to participate. After all, students who participate need to pay one tael for travel expenses and accommodation expenses. It is not cheap, and not every family can afford it.
But anyone who enters Bailu Academy and wants to study naturally wholeheartedly wants to become an official. With such a good opportunity in front of him, no matter how hard it is, many people will save a few taels of money.
During the first lunar month, Bai Erniang ran outside every day, running around non-stop for this tael of silver.
She put the flowers and potted plants on the trolley, cheekily, went door to door asking if she needed to buy them. After a day, she was so tired that her hands were bleeding blisters. She didn't tell Ye Niang that she just didn't want to burden Ye Niang, so she saved it by herself. I paid for the spring outing.
Thank God, I finally got together a tael of silver before the spring outing.
Bai Erniang couldn't breathe a sigh of relief even though she counted the money. Although the money for the spring outing in the academy was collected, she still received an invitation from Sister Ah Shen for the Shangsi Festival on March [-]. The days of enjoying flowers and playing are the days of spending money. Erniang will continue to make money after returning from the spring outing.
The spring outing team is about to start, and Tong Shaoxuan's class has basically participated. Mr. Kong looked at the roster of registration, only the last person's name has not been circled.
Mr. Kong asked Mr. Meng: "Shi Ruzhuo hasn't registered yet?"
"It's true that she is the only one missing. Should we continue to wait or come to ask?"
"I know the situation of Shi's family. Shi Ruzhuo has a younger brother who is an idiot. The family relies on a small steamed stuffed bun shop to make ends meet. The meager money her mother earns is used in the small shop. Erlang's soup is ready, I'm afraid a tael of silver will be difficult for their family. Money is a matter of face, why should we come to ask and cause trouble?"
Mr. Meng nodded: "Then don't look for her, let's set off on time in the afternoon. The carriage has already been booked, so there is no need to delay. If you can't reach the planned post today, you can only sleep in the countryside."
All the students gathered in the college with their luggage. Everyone was very excited and talked about which alumni they would meet this year.
Ge Xunqing found that almost everyone in the class had arrived, but Shi Ruzhuo was not seen.
Ge Xunqing said to Bai Erniang: "Isn't she coming?"
Bai Erniang said: "Perhaps... Did she not come for the spring outing last year?"
Ge Xunqing sighed "It's a pity", and looked at Tong Shaoxuan, and found that Tong Shaoxuan was looking into her purse with a look of surprise.
"Chang Si is counting silver?" Ge Xunqing snickered, "How many taels did my sister-in-law put in for you? Tell us singles to envy you?"
Tong Shaoxuan tightened his purse, his hands trembling a little.
In the purse, besides some broken silver, there is also a stack of banknotes...the face value of the banknotes is 50 taels.
What the hell is Tang Jianwei doing again? !
With the help of Ji Xue, Tong Shaoxuan packed his bags and prepared to go out.
Everyone walked out of the bedroom, walked around in the bamboo forest and came back, and finally brought the six-layer gorgeous food box with them.
She didn't soften her heart because Tang Jianwei had been doing it all morning.
She understood the preciousness of food since she was a child, and she would never waste it easily. She brought the food box out of diligence and thrift. Yes, it had nothing to do with Tang Jianwei himself.
Tong Shaoxuan carried the food box and went out again, almost bumping into someone head-on.
Tong Shaoxuan subconsciously hugged the food box tightly to prevent it from being knocked over, but he heard a playful laugh:
"It turns out that sister Changsi likes the food made by others very much."
"..."
I was so desperate that I met Tang Jianwei again before going out.
"Didn't you go to deal with the mutton?"
"Yeah, can't people come back to rest after the processing?" Tang Jian gently pointed to the first layer of the food box, "I've arranged the food in order of how long it can be stored, you can just eat it from top to bottom .As long as the bottom layer is eaten on the last day, it will all be within the expiry date."
"En." Tong Shaoxuan said in a muffled voice, "Thank you."
It sounded a little unwilling, but Tang Jianwei found out that no matter how upset this child was, he still had the same etiquette that he should have.
Still kinda cute.
Tong Shaoxuan was about to leave, Tang Jianwei said "Hey" and came forward to hand her a purse.
Tong Shaoxuan frowned, and didn't ask for it: "How do you give me this thing? I have it myself."
Tang Jian took a slight look at the small pouch on her waist, stretched out his hand and said, "Let me see how much money you have."
"Why should I give you... hello!"
Instead of dawdling with her, Tang Jianwei snatched it from her hand as fast as he could, opened it, and, oh, the familiar shabby copper coins.
"When I rescued you to the hospital, I wanted to touch your pocket to pay for the medicine. The situation is exactly the same as now."
Tang Jian smiled slightly.
Tong Shaoxuan was very embarrassed and didn't want to mention this past event to her: "Today's situation is just special."
"What's so special, because you spent all your money on the renovation of the bathroom before?"
"..."
Tong Shaoxuan was silent for a moment, and said in his heart: Why do you ask deliberately when you know.
"In order to allow me to take a comfortable hot bath, our Anian is really generous."
"..."
It turned out that she said that on purpose to embarrass her.
Never underestimate the thickness of Tang Jianwei's skin.
"It turned out that I spent all my money to make me comfortable. You should accept my money now, right? Otherwise, it would appear that I have no conscience."
"I followed the gentlemen of the academy all the way, and I have already spent one or two taels of silver. It doesn't cost much at all."
"Haven't you ever heard of a saying called the road to wealth for a poor family? No matter what, bring money with you for emergencies." Tang Jianwei forced her purse into her,
"If you don't want my money right now, we'll have to haggle over every detail in our lives later on. It's too troublesome. Take it, it's not much money, don't save it all for me."
In fact, Tong Shaoxuan didn't think about how much silver was in the purse, nor did he seriously explore it, but just lifted it with his fingers, and the weight seemed to be a few taels smaller.
Unexpectedly... there are silver tickets.
This is really too exaggerated, what should I do if I am targeted by robbers with so much money on the road? !
Tong Shaoxuan was a little flustered as he had never taken so much money alone since he was a child.
However, I felt a little relieved when I thought that the academy was taking dozens of people with me, and I was still walking the peaceful official way.
It's just that Tong Shaoxuan's attitude towards Tang Jianwei is even more unclear. He doesn't know whether Tang Jianwei hates himself at the moment, or...
Tong Shaoxuan put the purse away, and Mr. Kong, Mr. Meng and the other six teachers of the academy counted the heads according to the registration list.After confirming that everyone is here, they set off for the station.
They need to walk to the post station, take the official carriage parked at the post station, and go to the next post station.
Nowadays, the inns on the official road are all run by the government, and you will not encounter black shops. Although the environment is not luxurious, at least it can reach a comfortable level. Relatively speaking, the price is relatively low, which is a very suitable choice for travelers.
When I was going to the post station, I happened to pass Liusao's steamed stuffed bun shop. Ge Xunqing, who had eyes on the top of her head, often looked around. After she glanced in the direction of the steamed stuffed bun shop, she let out a "hey":
"Why does Shi Ruzhuo let his younger brother watch the shop?"
When she said this, Tong Shaoxuan Bai Erniang and the rest of her classmates looked over, and it was indeed Shi Ruzhuo's younger brother Shi Rumo who was looking at the shop.
Shi Rumo was only a little taller than the pavement, and was holding buns for others.
Although the movements are not as agile as ordinary children, but the serious appearance is not wrong.
"Thank you." After selling the buns, he smiled shyly at the customer.
Tong Shaoxuan remembered that this younger brother was terribly afraid of people before, hiding behind her sister and seeing no one at all, it is a rare thing that he would watch the shop here alone today.
Could it be that Tang Jianwei's consolation to him that day had an effect?
"Speaking of which, it seems that Shi Ruzhuo is the only one in our class who didn't sign up?"
"Yeah, I didn't even see her, what's the matter?"
"Don't ask nonsense, everyone has their own difficulties at home."
"Really? It's only a tael of silver. If you don't participate, it will be too bad. How will she take the exam in the future?"
The classmates were talking to each other, a middle-aged man came to the bun shop and asked Shi Rumo the price of the buns.
Shi Rumo was a little frightened, but he mustered up his courage, snapped his fingers, and said softly and slowly:
"The ones with meat stuffing cost five cents for two, the ones with vegetarian stuffing cost three cents for two... Uncle, which one do you want to buy?"
The middle-aged man seemed to see that Shi Rumo was different from ordinary children, so he thought of teasing him:
"Oh, then I want five meat and six vegetarian ones, how much is the total?"
"Five, six..." Shi Rumo was immediately confused by his question, and couldn't figure it out even with his fingers.
The man urged impatiently: "Hurry up, I don't have time to wait for you. If you can't figure it out again, I can just take the buns and leave."
When he said this, Shi Rumo became even more anxious, his face flushed, and he pulled the other side and said:
"Uncle, wait a minute. My mother and sister will come back after buying flour."
"Who has time to wait? Come on! How much!"
The middle-aged man made up his mind to beat the little fool with a bamboo pole. Seeing that he still couldn't figure it out, he grabbed the bun and was about to leave. When he turned around, he was stopped by a group of students.
Tong Shaoxuan said: "Two steamed stuffed buns with meat stuffing cost five cents, and if you buy five, the fifth one can only be counted as three cents, a total of thirteen coins. Add six vegetarian stuffings, a total of twenty-two coins. Put down the money and get the buns, or you'll be robbed!"
Before the man could respond, dozens of people were already chattering:
"How old is he, yet he still cheats on children's buns, how shameless he is."
"I know who he is, the brother of Wang Wu who sells mutton! He spends his days idle and doesn't look for a job. He knows how to cheat and cheat all day long, and he has no shame!"
The middle-aged man was so ashamed and flustered by a group of young ladies, he dropped his bun and ran away without looking back.
At this time, Sister-in-law Six and Shi Ruzhuo came back facing each other, seeing a large group of people gathered in front of their shop, they didn't know what happened, so they rushed over immediately.
Sister-in-law Six squeezed into the crowd, nervously holding her son in her arms, and was about to question the situation, but found that these people seemed to be students of White Deer College.
Shi Ruzhuo saw that they were leaving for a spring outing, and for some reason passed by her shop, immediately lowered his head, without saying hello to his classmates, passed through the crowd, and put the heavy noodles in the shop.
Ge Xunqing was straightforward, and when she saw Shi Ruzhuo, she asked her:
"Hey? Gongyu, you don't plan to go on a spring outing with us? The old alumni invited by the academy this year are quite famous officials. If you don't come, you will regret it later."
When Ge Xunqing said this, everyone was extremely embarrassed.
Bai Erniang trembled all over, she was most afraid of this kind of death dialogue, she wished she could sew Ge Xunqing's mouth shut.
After listening to her words, the sixth sister-in-law asked her daughter in bewilderment:
"What spring outing? What celebrity? Why haven't you mentioned it to me?"
Shi Ruzhuo said in a muffled voice, "It's not something important."
The sixth sister-in-law was not reconciled, so she went to ask Mr. Kong.
Mr. Kong had no choice but to tell the truth.
Only now did Ge Xunqing figure out what it was like, and she pulled Tong Shaoxuan's sleeve and said:
"Did I get into trouble?"
Tong Shaoxuan was also like Bai Erniang, almost unable to stand up in embarrassment: "Otherwise?"
"Changsi, help!"
"How can I save you from the disaster you caused yourself?"
"On weekdays, you have the most ghost ideas. If you don't save me, how will it end?"
"What is a ghost idea..."
"And I take good care of my sister-in-law's business. She earned more than a dozen taels of silver from me just for doing homework! And I eat fried dough sticks when she sells fried dough sticks, and I also go to the skewers when she sells them! If my sister-in-law opened a restaurant, I’m afraid I’d already be a VIP! Please, Tong Changsi, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!”
Tong Shaoxuan was so quarreled by her that he wanted to say straight - you went to Tang Jianwei to save you!Don't call her sister-in-law!She and I are already sisters now, I think it's better to call her sister directly next time I come to the door!
Ge Xunqing is here endlessly. In fact, Tong Shaoxuan also thought that the opportunity of spring outing was very rare. After all, the rules of the imperial examination are complicated nowadays. It's wishful thinking if you want to get into the imperial examination with an iron head.
If Shi Ruzhuo can't come, the road to the imperial examination in the future may be much more difficult than others.
and……
Tong Shaoxuan looked at Shi Rumo, remembering that Tang Jianwei seemed to have some pity for this child before.
She couldn't express what was in her heart, but the clearest thing was that she was willing to resolve the crisis for Sister-in-law Six's family.
Sixth sister-in-law was speechless for a while after hearing Mr. Kong's words.
It's true that their family can't get a tael of silver.
Sixth Sister-in-Law looked back at her daughter sadly, Shi Ruzhuo stepped forward, holding her mother's hand and was about to walk in, but she heard Tong Shaoxuan say:
"Sir, don't we have dinner yet? I don't think there are any suitable restaurants to go outside. Why don't we just buy some steamed buns from Sister-in-law Liu's steamed stuffed bun shop as rations, which are also convenient to carry."
Mr. Kong and Mr. Meng hesitated for a while, and soon understood what Tong Shaoxuan meant.
Before the gentlemen could say anything, Tong Shaoxuan stepped forward and said to Mrs. Six:
"Sister-in-law Liu, please put the steamed stuffed bun in the shop into a pocket for me. We have to take it on the way and eat it."
Ge Xunqing shouted "Wonderful" in her heart, and immediately stepped forward to agree.
What a clever person Six Sister-in-law is, how could she fail to see what these female students meant.
The sixth sister-in-law who tried her best to sharpen her head to make money was a little ashamed at the moment:
"There are so many buns, how can you finish them all?"
Tong Shaoxuan said: "Not only us, but also the students in the men's department. They eat a lot. I guess these are not enough."
Speaking of which, Tong Shaoxuan took out a tael of silver and handed it to the sixth sister-in-law, who hurriedly said, "I can't find it!"
"It's okay, you don't need to look for it." Tong Shaoxuan pulled the sixth sister-in-law to the side, and told her privately as far as they could hear, "Half of it is for buying buns, and the other half is for Tang Jianwei to help cut the mutton." Yes. She is too busy cutting mutton by herself on weekdays, so you can help me when you have time."
The sixth sister-in-law couldn't help but feel a pain in the back of her head when she heard the words "Tang Jianwei", but she could still see the kindness of the little lady, and she was very moved.
With this tael of silver, Shi Ruzhuo can go on a spring outing!
Her daughter can also let go of the burden of life, enjoy the fun of mountains and rivers happily, and go to play with her peers!
The sixth sister-in-law's eyes were red, and she pulled Shi Ruzhuo to thank Tong Shaoxuan a thousand times.
Shi Ruzhuo didn't expect that she had never spoken to Tong Shaoxuan on weekdays, and even had an affair, but she was willing to help him.
She was indeed very eager to participate in the spring outing, but her family was poor, so she could only keep her mouth shut. She never mentioned it in front of A Niang, just because she was afraid that A Niang would feel uncomfortable.
Now that there is such a coincidence, even though both parties are a little embarrassed, she feels that she should not care about that useless face.
She respectfully saluted Tong Shaoxuan: "Thank you Changsi. I will remember Changsi's help today."
Tong Shaoxuan didn't want to say anything, because he didn't want his classmates to feel that he owed him favors. When Shi Ruzhuo handed him over like this, his face immediately turned red, and he said hastily:
"There's nothing to be thankful for. I just feel sorry for my wife because I can't take care of my family when I'm away from home. I just paid you to hire you, sister-in-law six. Then, I will trouble sister-in-law six in the next few days."
The sixth sister-in-law asked her to put 1 hearts at ease, and by the way, she praised:
"You two young wives are really very affectionate."
Tong Shaoxuan smiled stiffly, and said in the direction of Tong's mansion:
Tang Jianwei, oh Tang Jianwei, take a good look, I am so magnanimous, which is completely different from your narrow-mindedness who is sure to get revenge!
The few days when I left just happened to make you think about it.
You have no one to hug tonight, so don't lose sleep.
That night, Tong Shaoxuan, who slept in the Datong bunk with his classmates, opened his eyes until dawn.
The bed was so hard, the room was so cold, Ge Xunqing's snoring almost knocked the roof down.
Tong Shao huddled in his quilt, his arms were empty, empty and lonely.
angry...
I really miss Tang Jianwei.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Tang Jianwei: Alright, I will pull out the flag for you first, and I will win this round, 1-0 to 1 in every sense.
Tong Shaoxuan: ...
