Silly Scholar's Wife

The sky is high, the water is wide, and the air is fresh.

Maybe other people travel long distances and stay on the boat for more than ten days is boring and boring, but Zhao Huan is in a good mood and enjoys the scenery of the journey.

In addition to cooking and doing some daily life every day, the rest of the time is spent playing on the deck.Sometimes I walk around alone, sometimes I take Mu Chenxi out for a walk, and I feel very uncomfortable.

The good things are always short-lived. For example, he is sitting in the corner of Mu's house now, watching the family reunion.

Mu's mother took Mu Chenxi's hand to touch tears, while Mu's father sat beside him speechless, while the other family members gathered around and asked questions.

Listening to their conversation, some people who came back from the test talked about Mu Chenxi.Such a big event naturally spread immediately. After hearing about it, the Mu family could not confirm whether it was true or not, and could only wait anxiously for their return.

At this time, Zhao Huan also remembered that Chen Mingrui said that he would leave the place where he used to live because he had found a job, so he returned home late. He did not expect to meet Mu Chenxi and the others on the boat.

"My son, why did you suffer such a miserable life!" Mother Mu cried and cried all the time, "You are provoking someone, and you ended up like this. Those high-ranking officials really have no conscience to hurt you so badly."

"Mother." As soon as she said this, Mu Chenhui took a quick look at Zhao Huan, "This was all an accident, no one thought of it like this. At the feet of the emperor, no one would dare to do harm."

"Why not? If no one hurts, Chenxi will do this?" Mu Mu wiped her tears and said without showing weakness: "I have already arrived in Rongdu, and I didn't even take part in the test. Can I have a complaint? I do it for me." Isn't it okay for the son to be wronged?"

Zhao Huan lowered his eyebrows and knew without looking at the expressions of the people present that the words were intended for him, but they could not decide whether he listened or not.

The population of the Mu family is not too complicated, that is, father Mu and his wife, with three sons and two daughters.The eldest son and the second son have already married, and the eldest daughter has also married out, leaving only the third son, Mu Chenxi, and the youngest daughter who have not yet married.

Then there are the grandchildren, the elder Mu Chenhui's family has two sons and a daughter, and the second Mu Chenchu ​​has a son and a daughter. There are 13 people including the elders and the younger ones.

After Mu Mu said those words, she looked at Zhao Huan, and even brought the others to look at him.But Zhao Huan was like an old monk in meditation, and there was no movement, and the room was quiet for a while, only the faint sound of breathing could be heard.

She has a sharp personality and has always been very strong. How could she not be angry when her only son who had pinned her hopes on her was ruined.Although he knew it had nothing to do with Zhao Huan, but he still felt angry, and his words pointed to something.

"Daughter-in-law." Mu Chenxi broke free from holding her hand, ran to Zhao Huan, and held his hand aggrieved.

When he came back, he was dragged by his mother. Although he remembered his family, the crying made him nervous, and he looked to his wife for help, but he never got a response.

"Okay." Mu's father looked at Mu's mother, and seemed to be a little disapproving: "The children have come back from a long distance, and they are exhausted all the way. Let them go to rest first, and we will talk about what we have to say later."

Mother Mu gave a soft "hum" with a bad face, turned her face to the side, and said nothing.

"Brother-in-law, I'll take you to Chenxi's room." Seeing the situation, Mu Chenhui hurriedly got up and beckoned them to go out, "Chenxi's bed is very big, it was newly replaced last year, you can fit in it."

After everyone dispersed, Father Mu was silent for a while.No one will feel good about such a thing at home, but he is a loyal and responsible person, and he will not have too many extravagant expectations, let alone unrealistic ideas.

It was beyond his expectation that his son could get to this point. He was grinning from ear to ear every day to be admitted as a scholar, and he couldn't even dream of being an official.

Now that it was such a time, he didn't have much thought other than feeling sorry for his son and worrying about his future.There are some regrets, after all, Mu Chenxi has reached the current height, but he will not act irrationally because of this matter.

"You've passed." After a long silence, Father Mu finally spoke again, "Why bother to blame a child, he is also a victim in truth. He came to our small place and wanted to watch the dawn without children for a lifetime. I deserve your censure."

"What about me, what about me?" Mother Mu patted her chest and said angrily, "I am a good son, a son who can honor his ancestors and become an official, but he just became a fool. Who will compensate me? Who will compensate me?" ?”

"Then you are not responsible?" Father Mu's eyes gradually turned red, and a layer of tears slowly emerged, "You kept talking about becoming the old Fengjun every day, and Chen Xi changed his mind to take the exam this year. Originally, he wanted to go in three years. Yes, just to be sure."

"I'm also responsible. I'm his father, but I can't afford him to study. I don't even have enough money to go to the exam. There is still a reward of 20 taels from the county government to allow him to make the trip."

Father Mu touched the tears in the corner of his eyes, sighed and said: "If there is enough money, according to Chen Xi's temperament, he will definitely not participate in any competitions, he is going for the prize, and none of you can wrong those two children. "

"Brother-in-law, this is Chenxi's room." Mu Chenchu ​​led Zhao Huan and the others to the door of a newly built house, "This is a newly built room after the Chinese New Year, and it's where Dad is planning to marry the third brother a wife." It’s useful, and it’s just right now.”

"This is great." Mu Chenhui looked at the big house in front of him and said with a smile: "I was afraid that my brother-in-law would not get used to living here, now that I have this new room, I can live more comfortably, it's because my father has a vision. "

He turned back to Zhao Huan and said, "Brother-in-law, you and Chen Xi go to rest first, and I'll call you back when it's time for dinner."

"Okay, big brother should go back early and rest for a while." After Zhao Huan finished speaking, he nodded to Mu Chenchu ​​and said with a smile, "Second brother Lao is here."

"Family, why are you being polite." Mu Chenchu ​​said with a smile on his face, "Everything has already been moved in. If there is anything inappropriate, just say it."

"it is good."

Zhao Huan opened the door and entered the room. From the outside, he found that it was very large, but when he entered the inside, it was even more spacious. It was about 30 square meters. There was only one bed, one cupboard for clothes, and a window by the window. tables.

"Daughter-in-law." Mu Chenxi smiled at him, and the confusion and helplessness just now disappeared, "We won't go there anymore, just stay here."

Zhao Huan was funny, it seemed that he was really scared just now, and he had no choice but to snatch him out and prevent their family from being reunited.

"Why don't you go there? Aren't they all your family? And your parents, you disappeared too?" Zhao Huan asked him with a smile.

Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan, tilted her head as if she was thinking about it, her big black eyes rolled slowly, and finally said, holding back her mouth, "Mother is crying."

He frowned slightly, his face was full of sorrow, he held Zhao Huan's hand and murmured for a long time, "They don't care about you, and I don't care about them."

With a sound of "puchi", Zhao Huan laughed, and couldn't help pinching his nose with itchy hands and shaking, "You know that, are you stupid or not?"

While they were talking, Mu Chenhui and Mu Chenchu ​​came to the main room again. Seeing the two elders waiting there, Mu Chenhui called out respectfully: "Father, mother."
