Free Life in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 177 Embarrassing Rejection

Zhou Mao smiled after Zhou Tang took Zhou Xiaomei away. He talked to Li Xiuru about the exam and led Li Xiuru to speak. Sure enough, a nerd is a nerd. Zhou Mao only said a few words, and Li Xiuru talked endlessly.

When Zhou Mao saw that Li Xiuru was in a good mood, he immediately changed the topic.

"Do you know what my third brother did?" Zhou Mao said.

Li Xiuru naturally shook his head. Zhou Mao smiled mysteriously and unconsciously showed three moments of pride on his face.

"It's to find my third sister-in-law!" He suddenly lowered his voice and said with laughter.

Li Xiuru suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly. Zhou Mao immediately turned his eyes and sighed.

"The man is determined to be everywhere, but it would be really lonely if there was no mother-in-law to do something at home. Just like Brother Li, it's a pity that such a talent has not been married yet. Zhou Maodao.

Li Xiuru couldn't help feeling lost, and he shook his head helplessly.

"How can my family be poor? There was also a marriage decided by my parents, but in the end, I abandoned me because of my depression. At present, it is not too late to think about those after the middle school entrance examination. Li Xiuru said.

Zhou Mao immediately smiled and said, "This is bad. Brother Li needs a woman to help him with the housework. This man needs to be ambitious, but he also needs the support of women behind his back. You are like the fifth of our family. Although my sister-in-law is not talented, I dare to guarantee that no one can match the family affairs!" With that, Zhou Heng raised his thumbs up.

Li Xiuru's face turned red as soon as he heard this. Zhou Mao saw that this was a little interesting! So he made a decision and said with a smile, "If you don't mind, I can..."

"How many sisters do you have?" Li Xiuru suddenly opened the skylight and said directly.

Zhou Mao was stunned and said unconsciously, "That's the only one, haven't you seen it?"

Li Xiuru was also stunned and immediately said, "No, is it two people who just saw at the door of the examination room and the one who just delivered tea! Don't lie to me. Is it possible that which sister-in-law did I see at the gate of the examination room? No, Zhou Hengming said, that's your sister!"

Zhou Mao heard that this is not the glory of our sister. No wonder Li Xiuru, Zhou Xiaomei's face looks like a door. Not to mention that although Lao Sanzhou Heng is not a handsome man, he can also be called a talented person. Not to mention himself, he used to be a famous handsome man in ten miles and eight townships. If the size hadn't been spoiled by the word Junlang, it wouldn't have been so sad today.

In this week's family, there is no ugly person from Zhou Tang to Zhou Mao. Next, it is said that Zhou Duoduo and Zhou Xiaoxiao are also standard beauties although they are young. Zhou Xiaomei is the only one in the whole family who wanders away from the Zhou family. No one will think that Zhou Xiaomei is from the Zhou family.

In this way, Zhou Mao is a little embarrassed. Well, there were a lot of matchmakers, but in the end they were all bad on Zhou Xiaomei's face. Is it possible that it will be bad this time? That won't work.

So, Zhou Mao said, "Although my sister is average-like, she has an excellent character. She has been caring since she was a child. Once, I went up the mountain with her and saw a snake trying to attack a rabbit. My sister pushed me in front of the snake and struggled to grab the rabbit. You don't know how caring my sister is. She took the rabbit home. She was afraid that the rabbit would be hungry, so she gave my dinner to the rabbit. You can go to our village to inquire. My sister is a famous good man. When she was a child, Chu Chu's mother gave her a piece of candy. She was reluctant to eat it and gave it to Grandma Wang, the poorest in the village. Well, she is soft-hearted. My sister is also very beautiful as a female red. The soles of my third brother and I are sewn by her. My greatest wish in my life is to find a good man for my sister and let her spend the rest of her life happily.

(It turns out that Zhou Xiaomei's slap on Zhou Heng was purely accidental. Omega's hair, please forgive her for being young and ignorant. However, it also proves that Zhou Xiaomei is filial to the old man.)

Li Xiuru was even more embarrassed when he heard this. Zhou Mao was about to hold Zhou Xiaomei to the sky, but he did not fall in love with it. To be precise, which man is not from the Appearance Association? Do you have to get an ugly daughter-in-law at home and think about escaping from prison every day?

But he and Zhou Heng are brothers, but they don't know what to say.

As soon as Zhou Mao saw Li Xiuru hesitated, he thought that this matter could be a little tricky, and immediately put on a deception posture, describing Zhou Xiaomei as a nine-day fairy down to earth. Li Xiuru's head was sweating in a hurry.

When Zhou Mao didn't say anything, Li Xiuru wiped off the sweat beads on his forehead with his sleeve.

"This... my sister-in-law is really... really not worthy of my sister-in-law. Besides, there is no need for a man to settle down in the room. He should break into the world. Whether I can take the exam this time is two different things. If I can't take the exam, I have to go somewhere else to see if there is a way out. My sister should marry a Ruyi man, but I'm afraid that I can't bring her a comfortable life. So..." Li Xiuru said here and looked at Zhou Mao.

As soon as Zhou Mao heard Li Xiuru refuse, he immediately said, "No, no, I think you and my sister are quite suitable."

"Brother!"

Suddenly, a crisp and loud shout came into Zhou Mao's ears. Zhou Mao unconsciously turned his head and saw Zhou Xiaomei standing at the door with tears on her face. Li Xiuru also turned his head and was immediately stunned when he saw Zhou Xiaomei.

Is it possible that she heard their conversation just now?

"Brother!" Zhou Xiaomei shouted again.

Suddenly, Zhou Mao felt heartbroken. Just as Zhou Xiaomei shouted "Brother", her tears slipped across her face, and Zhou Mao's heart was immediately heartbrothed.

Unconsciously, Zhou Mao stood up and couldn't help taking two steps forward and said sadly, "Hey, sister, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

This is Zhou Mao's first heartfelt words in more than 20 years. This emotional words sounded like the sound of nature to Zhou Xiaomei. Unconsciously, she shed tears again. This time, it's moving tears.

"Brother, since they don't agree, why do you have to force each other? I...I..." Before Zhou Xiaomei finished her words, she suddenly turned around and ran out.

Zhou Mao was stunned, and then immediately rushed out.

"Brother Zhou! Brother Zhou!" Li Xiuru is anxious. Why did he leave him alone?

Zhou Heng knocked on Song Keren's door and first straightened his clothes. His clothes are neat, but his heart is uneasy. It seemed to be as nervous as when he got married to her and took off her red cover.

The door opened, and the mother immediately put down her face as soon as she saw Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng came to Song Keren more than once. His mother met him two or three times and only hated this young man to the bone. Anyway, Song Keren is a widow, and there is a lot of trouble in front of the widow. Is it possible that he will be satisfied as long as the people in the world point to Song Keren's backbone and scold her?

Zhou Heng smiled when he saw his mother.

"Mother-in-law, I'm looking for..."

"Oh, you're looking for a girl, right? The girl is not at home. The old mother said.

Zhou Heng was stunned and quickly explained, "I just came from the store and said that the girl is at home!" She just came home from the store!"

The old mother sneered, but still maintained the demeanor that a large family's servants should have. Otherwise, it can be said that she would rather marry a slave than a little girl. This mother is extraordinary and does things amazing.

"Aren't you just at home? However, our master sent someone to invite her. Well, today is the day for students to leap over the dragon gate. Our young master is also leaping over the Dragon Gate, so the master asked the girl to go there. At least, the girl is also the young grandmother of the Fang family, isn't she?" The old mother said.

The old mother's words were sharp and clear, and she said Song Keren's embarrassing position.

Zhou Heng's face suddenly turned red.

"That..."

"Our girl may not be able to come back today. When she comes back, I will report to him that Master Zhou has been here." The old mother robbed the white road.

It is not difficult for anyone to see that my mother doesn't want Zhou Heng to see Song Keren. In desperation, Zhou Heng had to nod to his domineering mother.

"Well, thank you. Tell her that I have finished the exam. He said.

The old mother smiled and was about to close the door. Suddenly, a voice came from behind.

"Who is at the door?"

The mother's smile suddenly froze on his face. Zhou Heng immediately raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth, showing a beautiful smile.

I saw Song Keren and the housekeeper Lao Si come out one after the other.

"Who is coming from the door?" Song Keren asked again.

The old mother quickly made way, and Zhou Heng's figure was unobstructed in everyone's eyes. Lao Si saw that it was Zhou Heng, and unconsciously frowned and gently whitened his mother.

The mother gritted her teeth and lowered her head and said to herself, "I also want to drive him away!"

Zhou Heng came forward as soon as he saw Song Keyen at home.

"I just finished the exam, so I want to meet Brother Shaowen and catch up with him." Zhou Heng said.

How clever.

Song Keren nodded.

"Thank you for your memory. Come in quickly. Mother Li, please prepare a bowl of tea for me. Song Keren replied lukewarmly.

The mother nodded quickly, and Lao Si stood at the door and turned around.

"Girl, stay. I'll go back first and ask for a good day to contact the craftsman to help the girl break the ground." Lao Si said.

Song Keren nodded and thanked him with a smile. To be honest, her status is very embarrassing. The Fang family did not make it clear that she was the daughter-in-law of the Fang family, and the servants could only call her a girl. Not only the awkward name, but also Song Keren only regarded himself as a guest without the slightest feeling of the owner. Otherwise, where is the reason for the master to send slaves out?

When Song Keren saw that Lao Si had gone, he closed the door in person. What is this called?
