[Red Mansion] Third Sister You's New Life in the Red Mansion

After tearing up their faces and exchanging harsh words, Xuanying and his party were driven out of the big courtyard of the Xuan family by the two in-laws of Xuan Zongsheng, and the luggage of the whole family was also thrown out of the courtyard. He swept Mrs. Xu out of the house; originally, according to Mrs. Sun's temperament, these rags were good things, and they could be used as shoe soles if they were torn apart, but now they were all thrown out.

Although she already knew that Xu Ying was here to pick her up, Xu still mourned and kept crying, making her younger siblings cry too. Together with her mother, Xu Ying and He's mother finally persuaded each other to stop.Xu thought about it, and decided to take a group of people to live in the next village first. She has an aunt and niece married there, and her family is fairly well off. She even came to visit her a few days ago.

A large group of people walked out of the village, old and young, not only leading mules and horses, but also carrying boxes and luggage, which naturally attracted the attention of many people.It was still early at sunset, and there were still many people busy in the fields.Someone recognized Mrs. Xu and greeted her loudly, "Auntie, where are you going? Why did you bring your two nephews out?"

As soon as Mrs. Xu heard the voice, she knew that this person was the famous rogue and poor son of the clan, Xiu Laoqi.She was very depressed at this time, so naturally she refused to talk to her.

So the old seven simply jumped onto the ridge of the field, looked carefully at the group of people, and asked Xu, "Oh, auntie, are you going on a long trip?"

Mrs. Xu knew that if he ignored him, this person would not give up, so she could only perfunctoryly say, "No. My granddaughter has come to pick us up, and we are going back to Jinling. We won't see each other for a few days, Seventh Boy, you are willing to stay It’s rare to do something in the field.”

Old Qi Xi chuckled, "Where is it? It's just that kid from the Dachi family. His cattle came to my field to eat crops. I really taught him a lesson. At a young age, it's easy to let the cattle go. The cow was left on the ground, and the man hid somewhere to be lazy, and I have to go to his father later to pay me for the crops!"

Mrs. Xu sighed, "Seventh boy, I'm not talking too much. How long has your field been deserted, and how many crops can you grow? It's not that you don't know how pitiful that kid from the Dachi family is, so why bother to sue him?" How about letting Da Chi beat him again?"

Lao Qi snorted, "Old aunt, I said that I only asked him to pay for the money, but I didn't touch him a finger. His father wants to beat him, so what does it have to do with me? Isn't it because he didn't put the cattle well? I am a villain, and my aunt has a heart of a Bodhisattva, so will my aunt pay me for the crops?"

Mrs. Xu shook her head and didn't want to talk to him anymore, but Qi Lao Qi suddenly realized, "What, Auntie just said that she wanted to go back to Jinling? Then what about your fields here?" Seeing Xuanying again, "This is Auntie's direct relative. The granddaughter of Zong Zhao’s family? The second girl in Brother Zong Zhao’s family? You are so handsome! Auntie is lucky, is this my sister-in-law who sent you to pick you up?” He asked Xu, “Why did you leave in such a hurry? Let’s have a meal, say goodbye, and go out early, otherwise we won’t be able to reach Suiyang.”

Mrs. Xu just sighed repeatedly, which aroused strong curiosity in Lao Qi, and vowed to find out, who told him that he was a famous bag inquirer in this village.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiu Ying briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter, and the public opinion must always be released to prevent Chu Zongsheng from talking nonsense in the village.

Chu Laoqi slapped his thigh when he heard this, "I said it a long time ago, that Zongsheng is not a good person. Brother Zongzhao still doesn't believe it. He only thinks that the fourth brother is also a scholar? If this scholar is bad, it is bad to the bone. , unlike us, that is, he refuses to forgive others in words. What is the old aunt going to do? Are you really going to confront him in court?"

Seeing Mrs. Xu hesitated, he said in a low voice: "I have something to tell my aunt. This fourth son, he has some friendship with the boss of the county government office and the head of the household house; since he got it He started to make friends with these two people on your family's sacrificial land, and allocated this land from brother Zong Zhao's name, and put it in the family land, and by excluding others, he is seeking the position of patriarch; I Look, in another two years, these fields will become private property under his name; I'm afraid it will be difficult for my aunt to file a lawsuit with him."

Mrs. Xu was taken aback, "There is such a thing? Why don't I know about it? Could it be that our hundreds of acres of Shangtian fell into his hands like this?"

Boss Wu laughed again, "Auntie, there are many tricks in this, and it's not impossible to turn it over; look, if you can get some money to buy wine and meat tonight, you'll be full. Maybe I can give you some advice!"

As soon as Xiuying heard this, she knew that this person was messed up again. How could she let this kind of person blackmail her, so she also smiled, "It's easy to say. Tell me what you know first. I think it's worth it. Your money is indispensable." "However, why do I not believe you so much in what you said? I think you are just a rascal in the village, how many things do you know about the county government? Don't just look at our family, old and young, and want to extort our money, right? You If you think so, you are wrong!"

When Chu Laoqi heard this, he immediately became anxious, although he did have this intention, but he did not allow others to look down on him, "Second girl, don't look at me for being idle all day long, there is nothing in Suiyang County that I don't know about! Let me tell you a way, it will definitely be useful, if you don’t believe me, you can go to the county to inquire about it!” While saying a few words like this, Xiu Ying asked Zhou Feng and Liu Xianglian to come and listen together.At first Liu Xianglian acted as if she didn't want to talk to her, but she couldn't bear Xiu Ying's soft pleading, so she had to come over too.

After listening to Boss Wu's words, the three of them glanced at each other. Liu Xianglian was riding on a horse with a serious expression, and asked Boss Wu condescendingly, "Are you telling the truth?"

Seeing Liu Xianglian dressed like this, with white clothes and light boots, wearing pearls to wipe his forehead, a sword bag on his back, and a horsewhip around his waist, it is easy to feel the chilling spirit on Liu Xianglian's body. I was so angry that I broke out in fear, "How dare I speak nonsense in front of the young hero."

Liu Xianglian thought for a while, then nodded her head slightly: "Let's just believe what you said! If we go to the county government and find that you have half of what you said is not true, you can wait!" Chu Qi hastily promised, Chu Ying motioned to Zhou Feng, and Zhou Feng casually grabbed a handful of copper coins in his bag and gave him: "This is a reward from our second girl. The second girl is the most talkative person, but you have to be careful, if you lie to us, The second girl is also unwilling to forgive."

Chu Qi only said it was right, and clasped his hands, only looking at Liu Xianglian, not daring to take the money, Chu Ying couldn't help laughing, "Look at what he is doing? You can take the money I rewarded, and there is nothing else. You can just report the news, as long as it is useful, I will reward you." Xiu Qi accepted it with a smile, and then asked Xu graciously, "My old aunt brings such a big family. Where are you going to rest?"

Mrs. Xu sighed, "There is nowhere else to go, but I have a niece and niece in the next village who came to visit me a while ago. We walked and we arrived after dark. I live at his house. Last night, and leave for the city tomorrow morning."

Xuan Qi's eyes widened, "Aunt's niece and niece? But the second daughter-in-law married to Xu's family in Yantian Village? It's not a coincidence. I just saw them go east with their children this morning. It's a long way to go to a banquet, and it will take two or three days to go back and forth. I'm afraid that the old aunt will go on this trip, and it will be empty. Although there are old parents at his home, but the aunt brings so many people, I'm afraid it's not easy to bother."

"Ah? This, what should I do?" Mrs. Xu suddenly became confused, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Mr. Xie had a bitter face, thinking and thinking, "I have old parents at home, and there are only a few or two. It’s just a straw house, I really can’t entertain them.” After a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, “Yes, I know a family that lives at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain. Although the house is not big, they dug several cellars along the mountain. It seems that they specialize in dry vegetables. I went to see it, and the inside is very clean, and few people usually go there. I’ll let someone take you there.” On the other hand, he shouted loudly, “Brother Xu, come out, just now I don't care about it with you anymore; if you bring your second wife's family to your house to stay overnight, they will reward you!"

He yelled a few more times, and then he heard a soft sound in the thick grass beside the field, and a small head popped out. He looked only in his teens. Wu Zhenzhen's hair was stained with some grass leaves, his nose was straight, and his complexion Slightly dark, the tails of eyebrows and eyes were slightly upturned, and his pair of red phoenix eyes were extremely bright; then he got out of his whole body, with a calm expression, looking at everyone with neither humble nor overbearing.

"Hey, whose child is this? Why have I never seen it before?" Xu asked curiously.

"It's normal if the old aunt doesn't recognize them. They just moved here from outside the mountain last year. Their name is Yuan Xu, and his father's name is Xiu Dachi. They usually make a living by hunting. They have already made five clothes in the ancestral hall of the Xuan family." They moved closer again. Mrs. Xu said mysteriously, "I heard that Dachi is not his real father, his mother married Dachi with him in his arms. Although Dachi is an honest man, he doesn't like him when he sees him, and he will be hammered every day." Dayton. After having younger brothers and sisters, he was disliked even more, and the family has to do all kinds of work all day long, which is pitiful."

"Well, if he rashly brings this large group of people home, won't his father beat him?" Xuanying hesitated.

"After staying overnight, if you can give me some silver or copper, my father will be very happy." Xuan Yuanxu stood up and said calmly.

"Well, take us to your house. We have all the boxes and luggage. If you don't need your house, I'll pay you for a delicious meal at night." Xuan Ying said straightforwardly.

"Sure, then come with me." Xuan Yuanxu pulled out his big buffalo and climbed up nimbly. Following his movements, a few crumpled pages of paper fell out from his short cuffs , Yuan Xu let out a cry, and hurried down to pick it up.A piece of paper just fell at Xu's feet, Xu bent down to pick it up, and took a quick look, only to see neat small characters written in ink on it, which seemed to be a thousand-character script.

"Hey, are you still literate?" Xu asked in surprise.As a mother who trained Jinshi, Mrs. Xu is also proficient in writing, "Then your father is not bad, he will let you study."

"No, my father doesn't allow me to read. I learned it by myself. Sometimes I will herd cattle near the private school. Old Master Tian will give me some pens and paper when he sees that I want to learn." Yuan Xu lowered his head, a little dull and authentic.

"Stealing? How long have you been studying? How many words do you know now?" Xu asked in surprise.

"I have already learned the Three-Character Classic, Thousand-Character Essay, and Hundred Schools of Poetry. Old Master Tian gave me a year's gift, and he will teach me the Four Books and how to write essays. I dare not tell my father." Yuan Xu said and climbed up. "Hurry up if you want to go, the sun is already setting, my mother is still waiting for me, and I have to find vegetables in the garden to cook dinner for so many of you!"

Along the way, Mrs. Xu kept praising him for being smart and sensible, and said to Xiu Ying: "It was when your father was in a private school, and your grandfather had to beat him twice every three days, so he was willing to learn. Where is it?" He's so willing to learn! He's such a smart kid, and it's a pity that he's not allowed to recognize words in a family like this."

Hearing this, Xuan Ying only smiled.

Looking at the back of Xuan Yuanxu, she suddenly asked thoughtfully: "If grandma can have such a grandson, I'm afraid I will wake up laughing in my dreams?"

Mrs. Xu sighed and shook her head, "Second girl, how can I be so lucky? You can also see Yuan Lin's appearance. He is more than two years old, and he doesn't say a word, saying that the nobleman speaks late, but I I know this child is not wise. I just hope that he can grow up safely! Your father left behind such a little flesh and blood, I, I can't help it?" She glanced at Xuying, "People leave Villager, I'm a god, and I still expect to enjoy the blessings? I followed you because after arriving in Jinling, there will always be more good doctors and medicines, and I just want to cure Yuanlin's illness sooner!"

The group of people walked for half an hour, and when the sky was getting dark, they finally came to the foot of Qingfeng Mountain next to the village. They saw a single family, a row of four or five small wooden houses, and Chinese toon phoenix trees and various fruit trees were planted in front of the door. It is also quiet and comfortable to go up.Xuan Yuanxu asked everyone to wait at the bottom of the slope first, and he went home to tell his mother first, lest she be frightened—she had a younger brother or younger sister in her belly.

In the vegetable garden on Banpo, he took down the bamboo basket from the tree beside the garden, picked some vegetables quickly with his hands and feet, and then went uphill into the house with the bamboo basket on his back.After a while, he waved to everyone in a very happy mood, "Come here, my father hasn't come back yet, my mother told you to come up and sit in the room."

When everyone entered the room, they saw Yuan Xuniang pouring water with her big belly, Yuan Xu hurriedly supported her, "Mother, rest, I'll do it." He said to everyone, "You wait , I'll cook right away, very soon."

Yuan Xu's mother is a slender and pale woman, not as thick and big as ordinary peasant women. Seeing the small room full of people, she smiled apologetically, "The head of the house has gone hunting and will be back later. There are some simple tea and light meals, but we are just neglecting the guests." He greeted them, "If you are thirsty and want tea, just say, I will go find a bowl, we have never had guests at home, and this water cup is not enough."

Mrs. Xu hurriedly asked her not to be polite, and couldn't help asking her how many months she was pregnant, which child she was, and what the head of the family did to make a living. Gradually, Yuan Xuniang called her "old aunt" ".

Zhou Cheng held Yuan Lin in his arms, and took Xuan Xiang and Yin Bao to go out to look at the fruits on the tree. Zhou Feng went around the back of the house and came back and told Xuan Ying, "There are four holes in the cellar, and each hole is the size of a room. It’s open and clean, and there’s no problem with living there.”

Xiuying was talking to Liu Xianglian.Because it delayed his trip and dragged him into trouble, Xiuying felt embarrassed from the bottom of her heart this time, so she solemnly apologized to him; Liu Xianglian was not a person who held grudges in the first place, so she smiled In short, it was just that he was a little puzzled by the embarrassment he had made for himself when they first met on the boat, and he wanted an answer.

Of course, Xiuying couldn't answer this matter, she couldn't say that I stayed away from you because I wanted to wipe your neck for you according to the plot in the book, right?After thinking about it, she simply smiled and said, "Because you are so handsome! If I flatter you in every possible way like others, I'm afraid you are so commonplace and dismissive; that's why I found another way, and all kinds of words and deeds are just to attract you. Just pay attention! Look, didn't I succeed? Besides me, is there any other woman who makes you so impressed and never forgets?"

"You!" Liu Xianglian blushed immediately, "You are really shameless at such a young age, can you say such things indiscriminately?"

"Why, when you were on stage, so many women cheered for you in the public, why didn't you say they were shameless? Now it's just you asking, and I'm telling the truth, and no one else has heard it. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Liu Xianglian was speechless for a while, and it took a long time to calm down, muttering, "You are still young, you don't understand..." and walked away.

It's just that after that, he always avoided Xuanying along the way, and he didn't dare to look at her directly again, which made Chuying secretly want to laugh. If he had known that he would avoid her, she had said it earlier.

As for Liu Xianglian, he himself couldn't figure it out, since she was still young, it was okay to scold her for being ignorant when she said such things, why did he act like a thief? The more he pretended to be calm, the more he felt in his heart. It's chaos, it doesn't make sense.

Why is this?

The author has something to say: Because Brother Liu is about to start crossing the catastrophe
