Evening Shaohua in the Red House

After changing clothes, Xiuzhu washed his hands, came out from the backyard, and was about to go back to the room, when he heard a cry of a child, he was puzzled, turned around the screen wall, and saw a little girl sitting on the ground wiping her tears, crying for her mother .

Seeing the child crying pitifully, Xiu Zhu couldn't bear it, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug her up. Seeing that she was about three or four years old, wearing a red floral cotton jacket, trousers of the same color, and a pink face, she couldn't help feeling sad Yi Ruan, judo: "Whose family are you a child? Why are you crying here alone? Where's your mother?"

The doll just cried, "I want mother—"

Xiuzhu was at a loss, and it was useless to be coaxed by Mrs. Wu who followed her for half a day. Xiuzhu couldn't do it. After thinking about it, she untied a purse of silver and red woven gold satin embroidered with white plum blossoms on her waist, poured out a few pieces of snacks, and handed them to the little doll, coaxing Advised: "Don't cry, sister treats you to a snack."

Smelling the sweet smell of the pastries, the little doll slowly stopped crying, and looked at the embroidered bamboo eagerly with her fingers in her mouth. There was still a teardrop in her big black grape-like eyes, cute and pitiful.

Seeing this, Xiuzhu felt more pity for her, fed her two pieces of snacks, and coaxed her softly, the little doll laughed through tears, ate the snacks, and called her elder sister inarticulately, only knowing her name was Niu Niu, but she still couldn’t say no Know whose child you are.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu said: "Girl, I can't figure it out for a while. The people on the left and right are here for the wedding today. I think it's better to carry it out to the front and ask." The little guy grabbed Xiuzhu's clothes tightly, with a face full of tears, but he refused to let go.

Xiu Zhu couldn't help it either, so she had to carry Niu Niu to the front yard gate. At this time, many guests came, and the courtyard was full of people's voices. Xiu Zhu saw a lot of people looking here, and some of the men had burning eyes. Feeling very uncomfortable, I put the remaining pieces of snacks into Niuniu's pocket, and after a few words of persuasion, I handed them to Mrs. Wu's arms, and said: "There are too many people ahead, so I won't go, please trouble Mrs. Wu gone."

When Niuniu heard that she was going to find her mother, she obediently did not cry or make trouble, and waved her little hand to say goodbye to Xiuzhu.

Mrs. Wu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took Niu Niu, and said: "It's okay, there are people coming and going here, don't collide, the girl should go back to the upper room."

Xiuzhu agreed, and said with a smile, "Mom, go quickly."

Seeing them go, Xiuzhu wanted to go back to the room, but unexpectedly, he came to the screen wall, and a person rushed out diagonally, the two almost bumped into each other, Xiuzhu was startled, when he looked up, it was the same person

The young man reeking of alcohol was immediately taken aback, and hurriedly backed away.

The man was about twenty years old, thin and frail, with a sallow complexion, and a pair of triangular eyes that were cloudy and lifeless. Seeing Xiu Zhu avoiding him, he hurriedly said, "Xiaosheng didn't mean to be abrupt, so please don't blame me." Although he apologized, his eyes were still straight Gougou stared at the embroidered bamboo.

Although Xiuzhu was born as a girl, she is also a rich and well-dressed person on weekdays. Today, because she is going to a wedding banquet, she is wearing a small lake crepe jacket with peach blossoms sprinkled with flowers, and a cotton skirt with embroidered embroidered silk and light yellow silk. She has good black hair Holding a hanging servant girl on her arm, a hairpin made of exquisite seven treasures, two palace flowers of silver-red gauze are inserted obliquely, a gold bracelet with double dragons playing with pearls twisted on her wrist, snow-skinned lips, standing gracefully like a blooming crabapple flower.

The man glanced back and forth from top to bottom, fixedly looking at the exquisite hairpin in the embroidered bamboo hair and the twisted silk gold bracelet on his wrist, a little bit of gleam appeared in his cloudy eyes, the expression of salivation was beyond words, and he seemed to be similar He made a bow and said with a smile: "Xiaosheng Zhou Lu, I don't know what to call the girl?"

That gaze was so revealing that Xiuzhu felt as if he was being thorned all over, he hurriedly said 'I'm sorry, please let me go', and wanted to leave.

But Zhou Lu staggered two steps, stood in front of Xiuzhu, and said with a smile: "The girl hasn't told Fang's name yet, why is she in such a hurry to leave?"

Xiu Zhu was startled and annoyed, but at this time everyone was in the front yard, there was no one around, and there was nothing to do, when suddenly a stone fell from the sky, and then Zhou Lu fell to the ground with a thud.

Zhou Lu felt dizzy and dizzy. When he touched his head, he got a big swelling. He looked around but couldn't see anyone. He suddenly became angry and cursed: "What kind of son of a bitch plotted against me! Come out if you have the ability!"

This unexpected turn of events made Xiuzhu startled for a moment. When she looked up, she saw a face protruding from the branches of the peach tree outside the wall. It was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a baby face and slight skin. Hei, thick eyebrows and big eyes, seeing the embroidered bamboo looking over, the young man blushed immediately, pointed backwards, and then hid among the branches and leaves.

Xiuzhu was full of suspicions, but at this moment, she didn't care about anything else, she ran away quickly, and suddenly saw a group of women walking towards her, one of them was about forty years old, with a round face, fair skin, and not well dressed The others were all dressed up as village women, with baskets in their arms, some filled with eggs, and some with cakes and steamed buns.

Those women were talking and laughing loudly, but they were stunned for a moment when they saw this scene.

Xiu Zhu immediately recognized that the leading woman was Li De's wife who was in charge of their grandma's farm, she was surprised and happy at once, called Aunt Li, and hurriedly hid behind her.

Li Dejia

She was startled when she saw Xiu Zhu, looked back and forth, and saw that she was angry, but the man next to her looked guilty, and she understood a little bit, patted her hand comfortingly, and said softly : "Girl, don't be afraid."

It's really a good plan. The morals of today's world have always been harsh on women. If he succeeds and spread the word, the girl's family will lose her reputation, and she will have to marry even if she doesn't want to. Thinking of this, Li De's family was very angry, and turned to look behind her. A woman with a long face said calmly: "Sister-in-law Zhou, this girl is someone who our grandma can use. After calculating it, how will my sister-in-law deal with it?"

Mrs. Zhou was the daughter-in-law of the head of the Zhou family. Hearing this, she gave Zhou Lu a hard look, apologized, then turned to Xiu Zhu and said, "Don't worry, girl, I will report to the elders later and give the girl an explanation." .”

The others were also very angry, they were all members of the Zhou family, they were usually close friends with the Feng family, they came here to congratulate them today, they did not expect to encounter such a terrible thing.

At that time, Zhou Lu was a worthless slut in the Zhou family. He was incapable of writing and martial arts. Living life, he still thinks highly of himself, looks down on daughters of ordinary people, and threatens not to marry anyone who is not a stunning beauty. I don't know how many jokes have been made.

They also knew that Yinglian and Mrs. Lin's family had a good relationship, and they remembered that they had just heard that the grandma of the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing had sent someone to congratulate her. people.

Everyone knew Zhou Lu's nature, so today he must have heard that a few girls from a wealthy family had come, so he wanted to trick him.

It's just that he doesn't think about it, the girl is from the Duke's mansion, so he can't figure it out. If he offends the mansion, even a finger can crush him to death.

Thinking of this, everyone became more annoyed and looked at Zhou Lu coldly.

Seeing this, Li De's family whispered to Xiuzhu: "Leave it to me here, girl go back first."

Xiuzhu heaved a sigh of relief, smiled gratefully, glanced in the direction of the peach tree, and hurried away.

Zhou Lu's head was swollen and painful, and seeing everyone staring at him fiercely, he felt a little uncomfortable, so he forced a smile and said, "Why are the aunts here?"

The long-faced woman smiled coldly, handed over the basket to the person next to her, rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward, saying: "The banquet at the third uncle's house is next door."

, what are you doing here? "

Zhou Lu saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said: "Auntie, please forgive me, I just got drunk and lost my way, and I just offended that girl, it was not on purpose..." Before he finished speaking, the woman twisted his ears, and she With big shoulders and round waist, and great strength, he gritted his teeth and said: "You don't know how to live and die, if you don't teach you a lesson this time, you will have to bring our whole family down later!" While twisting and pulling him, he apologized to Li De's family.

Zhou Lu wailed in pain, and kept apologizing: "I was fooled by the lard, so I won't dare to do it again next time."

A woman smoothed things over and said: "Boy Lu was also confused for a while, but fortunately he didn't make a big mistake. Sister Li, don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Hearing this, Li De's family smiled lightly, looked around at everyone, and said: "This is a member of the noble family, so naturally we will not deal with it arbitrarily, but fortunately, this matter has not been spread, otherwise it will be hard to say if we let our house know .”

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, Zhou Lu was mostly sober at this time, and secretly regretted that he had not acted carefully, but he was taken seriously.

Li De's family glanced at him, and sneered in his heart, he had heard of this person's whereabouts before, he really can't change his shit, this kind of people will never regret it, it's better not to leave any trouble, thinking of this, looked at Rong Chang's face The woman glanced at it and said meaningfully: "Speaking of which, Zhou Juren's wife went out in front of our grandma. In view of the incense, we don't pursue it too much. I just ask sister-in-law Zhou to tell the patriarch Zhou that this kind of absurd person It's better to discipline more, otherwise I don't know what troubles will happen in the future."

The woman's heart skipped a beat, thinking of her son who was about to take the scientific examination, her complexion changed drastically, and she hurriedly explained a few words to everyone, then dragged Zhou Lu out through the back door.

Not to mention how miserable Zhou Lu was, the embroidered bamboo hurried back to the upper room, Danju Zijuan and others were helping to change clothes and wash, everyone was so busy that no one noticed her expression was wrong for a while.

Xiu Zhu collected himself and stepped forward to help, but he was always wondering, who was it that just helped?He thought about it absent-mindedly for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. He was about to wipe his sweat with a handkerchief, but he touched his waist, but it was empty. The purse he was wearing before was gone, and his face changed suddenly: "My purse is missing." Already!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Why did it disappear, maybe where it landed, think about it carefully."

Purses and sachets are all personal items. Once such private items are picked up by someone with a heart, it will be hard to tell.

Embroidered bamboo is full of anxiety

Khan, "I can't remember it at the moment. I still wore it in the yard before." Thinking of the Deng Tuzi I met today, I can't help but feel very depressed. Deng Tuzi picked it up, but it was bad.

Everyone searched everywhere, but there was no trace. Yinglian also became a little anxious, and asked Ming where Xiuzhu had gone, and hurriedly called her mother-in-law to come in, saying: "Miss Xiuzhu lost her purse, you go to the front." Look carefully."

The old lady quickly agreed, and the old lady Wu also hurriedly said: "Miss, don't worry, maybe you fell in front just now, I'll go back and look for it."

Immediately, he called a few women and hurried to the front yard, but after searching for it several times, the purse was still nowhere to be found.

Seeing this, Xiuzhu knew she couldn't help it, so she forced a smile and said, "Maybe it was picked up by someone, that's all, it's just a purse, it doesn't have a name written on it anyway, so it doesn't matter." Even so, that purse is her usual favorite My love, it took a lot of effort to make it last year. I often wear it, and I don’t want to leave it easily. I didn’t expect to lose it today.

Everyone was trying to comfort them, when they suddenly saw Taoer rushing in, holding a satin embroidered purse in her hand, and said with a smile: "I found the purse."

Xiuzhu hurriedly took it, looked at it carefully, it was really good, immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly asked: "Where did you find it?"

Tao'er also looked puzzled, and said: "Just now when I was looking for it, it suddenly fell from the sky, and I don't know who threw it."

Everyone felt puzzled when they heard it, but they couldn't figure it out for a while, so they all threw it away and said with a smile: "It's all right if you find it, next time you have to be more careful."

But Xiuzhu's heart moved, thinking of the blue-clothed boy just now, he couldn't help but blush.

Everyone didn't pay attention, only Dan Ju saw it, and she was secretly puzzled, but it was inconvenient to ask more questions at this time, so she had to press it temporarily.

Aunt Quanfu came after a while, and Yinglian took a bath, cleaned her hands and feet, and changed into red satin embroidered shoes, a jacket embroidered with hundreds of flowers in red satin, and a skirt in water-green satin richly and continuously embroidered. With a clean face, there are two emerald eyebrows of spring mountains, a thin layer of rouge is dyed on the fragrant lips, the cloud temples are straightened, a new makeup is put on, emerald emerald golden phoenix is ​​inserted, and pearl rings are worn on the ears.

Yinglian was originally born with willow eyebrows and beautiful eyes, with an apricot face and peach cheeks, but now she is showing her face, with light makeup and powder, lightly sweeping her eyebrows, a little rouge mole between her eyebrows, her head is covered with emerald pearls, pearl hairpins slipping from her temples, she has an oval face The child looks more and more charming.

Zicuckoo went forward to pack up the dowry, and said with a smile, "My girl looks like this, even the gods will be tempted when they see it."

Everyone laughed and said, "This

Extremely, the girl looks like a fairy today, and the groom will be stunned after a while. "

Yinglian's face flushed with embarrassment, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Not long after, Mrs. Feng came to invite them to the table, and two tables were placed in the upper room, one table for the chrysanthemums, embroidered bamboos, and purple cuckoos, followed by the mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law.

After noon, the young master of the Zhou family brought people to welcome the bride. He was embarrassed by everyone and wrote several poems before receiving the bride.

Amidst the sound of firecrackers, gongs and drums, everyone sent Yinglian to sit in a sedan chair, thinking that everyone's life has not been settled yet, and they all feel a little disappointed.

The banquet ended at the end of the unitary period, and seeing that it was getting late, Danju, Zijuan and others got up to say goodbye, Feng Shi sent it to the door, and watched everyone get into the car before going back.

When Xiuzhu returned home in the evening, she told Li Wan about meeting Zhou Lu at the banquet today. After hearing this, Li Wan was very annoyed. How the Zhou family dealt with it.

On the side of the Zhou family, the patriarch Zhou heard that Zhou Lu had acted despicably. Stay behind closed doors at home and think about your mistakes, and cut off all donations from the family.

At that time, Zhou Lu regretted it so far. The new injury had not healed, and he had no relief, and he couldn't eat. His life was very miserable.

Li Wan didn't stop until he learned about it.

Spring goes and autumn comes, and it is autumn in a blink of an eye.

One day when Daiyu came to talk to Li Wan, she saw Suyun holding a small foreign lacquer holding box and said, "Grandma Li just sent some fresh melons and vegetables, and this box of jasmine flowers came from the village this morning." The newly picked three thousand flowers are for grandma to enjoy."

Li Wan opened it and saw a box full of jasmine flowers. The fragrance was tangy, and the lover was about to get drunk. The petals were still stained with dew, so he twirled two hairpins in his hair, raised his head and smiled at Daiyu: "Sister, too." Come wear flowers."

Daiyu also picked two of them and put them on, wondering: "Jasmine has already bloomed at this time, why are there still?"

Li Wan smiled and said: "It's not surprising. Although the flowers and plants are in season, if they are handled well, the flowering period can last for several months. Mrs. Li Guanshi is used to tending the flowers and plants. She brings the vanilla flowers in the village. Cooking, all the flowers in her hands are different from other places, and my sister also brings some back." While talking, she called Dan Ju and said: "Divide half of the flowers in the box, and take them back to Miss Lin later. "

Dan Ju agreed, and took out the holding box to pack it.

Daiyu laughed and said, "I can't finish wearing these jasmine flowers until next year. In my opinion, it's better to use them to smoke tea.

New and elegant, wouldn't it be more interesting. "

Li Wan laughed and said, "Since that's the case, my sister might as well take all of it. I'll go find some tea after my sister smokes it. It just happens to save my tea." Everyone who said that laughed.

When the box was finished, Li Wan ordered eight hundred flowers to come out and sent them to Yan Hui. After thinking about it, he called embroidered bamboo and said, "Go to the garden and get those gardenias and those few pearl orchids out of the garden. Cut it off, and bring a small box with you." Xiuzhu agreed, and went to take care of it.

After talking and joking for a while, and eating tea fruit again, Dai Yufang went back.

Li Wan was about to go back to his room to have a rest, when he suddenly saw Wutong coming in to deliver a message, saying: "Mother Li is waiting at the second door, asking to see grandma."

After hearing this, Li Wan said, "Come in, please."

Not long after, Li De's family came in, greeted Li Wan first, and sat down on the footrest with a slanted sign. Fang smiled and said, "I have something to ask for grandma's grace today."

The author has something to say: Sorry for being late, these days have been a mess, our small city on the [-]th line has confirmed seven or eight cases of new pneumonia in just a few days, and a colleague who went to work in our unit also had a fever yesterday Cough symptoms, after learning about it, I found out that he had just passed by Wuhan some time ago, and stayed there for more than three hours!

Now it is known that there are nearly a hundred people who have returned home from Wuhan, and there are still many who have not been investigated. Now the whole city is panicked and everyone is in danger.

The rapid spread of the epidemic this time is really hard to prevent. Everyone must pay attention to protection, try to stay at home, wash hands frequently, ventilate, and visit less. If you go out, you must wear a mask, especially do not go to crowded places. If you feel unwell, you must Seek medical attention promptly!

ps: During the Spring Festival, the cuties who leave a message will each receive a small red envelope, which will be distributed uniformly in the next update.

Finally, I wish you all a happy new year, good health, happy family, and a smooth New Year's Eve.
