Chapter 199, High School
Two hours have passed, and there are still two hours left before dawn. The grass at night emits a faint aroma of grass. Only a few days after the spring, there was a slight spring rain, but the grass stems came out, and there were more and more early green branches.
Several red lanterns are hanging high, and below are a few night people who are happy to raise their eyebrows. They walked separately, and two of them came to Chu Huaixian's courtyard and patted the door with their palms held high.
"Please invite the prince, the prince is in high school." The people last night reported the news, and Fang's mother, who guarded the door, was overjoyed and asked, "What's the high school number?"
The person who had a face last night and scolded with a smile, "Old man, you just guard the door." Fang's mother still smiled happily. The person who reported passed her through the courtyard and stopped under the long porch. Someone in the room was shouting in a low voice: "What's the quarrel outside? The young lady can't be shocked at night.
"I'm invited to the prince. Someone just came to report the good news. The prince ranked fifth in high school." As soon as this festive word was said, the candlelight was immediately lit in the room, and the spring marks and winter dyeing opened the door. Chu Huaixian also came out in a dress.
After hearing the good news, Chu Huaixian appreciated it and didn't ask anything more. He continued to go back to sleep. Xiaochu has woken up, and there is a rare blush on his face. Chu Huaixian smiled and hugged her into his arms, still sleepy and said, "Sleep."
"Don't you get up?" Xiaochu pushed him gently. Chu Huaixian rubbed Xiaochu's forehead with his lower jaw: "No one called me to get up. Let's sleep a little longer."
When he slept for less than a quarter of an hour, someone outside whispered to the prince: "The master called the prince." Chu Huaixian answered lazily and hugged Xiaochu in his arms and enjoyed the warmth. Chu Huaixian reluctantly let go of Xiaochu and slowly sat up and shouted, "Get your clothes."
Just changing clothes in front of the bed, Xiaochu leaned on the rich pillow of the embroidered jade hall and looked at it with a smile on his lips. Chu Huaixian changed into a sapphire blue brocade coat. Because it was cold at night, it was a thin brocade jacket. After tying the belt, he showed it to Xiaochu, "How about it?" Suddenly remembered, "Where is the belt you embroidered for me? It's almost ready to embroider it."
Xiaochu lay on the pillow and laughed and coughed a few times, and the half-pull belt was still left there.
"I'm going. Go to bed. I'm afraid I won't be back at dawn." Chu Huaixian said like a woman: "You should use your own breakfast, at least a bowl of porridge and your medicine. Don't eat it at the wrong time."
After chattering, Chu Huaixian went out. Chu Huaixian, who was reluctant to leave Xiaochu, accelerated his pace outside the courtyard in the dark night filled with the fragrance of grass. He has neither color nor pride on his face. It seems that he is in high school, and he has a good mind.
When he came to his parents' room, Chu Huaixian asked the waiter in a low voice: "Has father ever slept last night?" The answer he got was the same as Chu Huaixian thought. The family replied to the prince in a low voice: "The master is waiting for the prince's happy letter, and he has never slept." Chu Huaixian smiled and thought about his father and mother. After all, he still loved himself.
As long as you still love yourself, a lot of words are easy to say, and Chu Huaixian is sure of some things.
Speaking in such a low voice outside the room, Chu Shaofu heard it and slowly asked, "Is Huaixian coming?" Chu Huaixian answered, "Yes." The family raised the curtain, and Chu Huaixian came in and knelt in front of his father Chu Shaofu.
Chu Shaofu stared at his son in front of him, and Chunqi High School ranked fifth. If it is the algorithm according to the township test, it is among the five leaders. When opening the imperial examination paper, the last ranking is filled in first, and the last few places are often filled in late. The family of the Chu family and other families, who have conditions, are waiting outside the Gongyuan to listen to the news. The last few are still filled in upside down, and one is filled in and one is reported. As soon as Mr. Chu's name came out, his family almost ran back.
The steady Chu Shaofu is still waiting for the good news to post the victory note, so that people can go back to Chu Huaixian. Originally, I wanted him to sleep until dawn, but the father really liked it so much that it made Chu Huaixian shout out. At this moment, Chu Huaixian knelt in front of him, but Chu Shaofu didn't know what he was going to say.
He just said lightly, "What do you want to say?" He couldn't get up on his knees, Chu Shaofu thought, and he wanted to say that... that... that.
"Gone back to your father and leave your daughter-in-law's life." As soon as Chu Huaixian opened his mouth, he was really rude. He can understand his parents' anger, but Chu Huaixian also wants Xiaochu's life.
Chu Shaofu sneered and felt that he had guessed. He sneered and said, "Did I kill her?"
Outside the window is moonlight and night, and there is candlelight in the room. Chu Huaixian knelt up under the candlelight, and the father and son looked at each other quietly without saying anything.
The elders don't like to see Lin Xiaochu. If it hadn't been for Chu Huaixian's tight protection, just stepping on the family would have been enough for Lin Xiaochu to suffer. Although Chu Huaixian was born, although he had never suffered, he usually listened to gossip, including what he listened to at home, and was clear about these things.
Parents don't care, in fact, they are tantamount to sitting by. Chu Huaixian quietly met his father's hateful eyes, and his eyes were begging and stubborn.
There was no sound in the room, as if the sound of candle tears could be heard. Then there was the sound of the chair. Chu Shaofu stood up and walked past his son. He raised his hand and slapped him heavily: "You don't want to round the room. You won't listen to a word." Mr. Chu insisted on getting married on his wedding night. As a father, he could only guide him to act and could not pull him out of the bridal chamber.
When Chu Shaofu came out at dawn, Chu Huaixian was still kneeling outside. This kneeling was two hours. At this time, the waist is hard, so I can't kneel down.
Chu Shaofu couldn't see it. He took Qingyan and rinsed his mouth slowly in the porch. He stood on his face, came back in and looked at Chu Huaixian and asked him, "What else do you want to say?"
"My son can stand tall and rely on his parents' teaching. The daughter-in-law lost the favor of her parents because she was not taught her since she was a child. Chu Huaixian said this, and Chu Shaofu sneered again: "You don't have to quibble a lot. Just say it if you have something to say."
Chu Huaixian's words have been thought about for a long time. If you win, you can reply. At present, "Parents see that she doesn't like it, and your son can't be filial, and they can't add anger to their parents anymore. Zhongfu's mother is ill and let her recover less, but if something happens in the future, it's all her son's business.
"Well, it's not your business, is it still your mother's business?" Chu Shaofu took a long breath. Chu Huaixian waited for a while and saw that his father was speechless. Then he said, "She also has a sister who lives outside now. I cleaned up three rooms in my yard and asked my father's permission to take me into the house. The child is unmanciplined outside to let others know that I didn't ask.
Chu Shaofu was silent for a while and then looked at his grown-up son. I'm haggard about his marriage, and I really don't want to be idle with him anymore.
"It's your thing in your room, and you can do it yourself in the future. I can't do it clearly. Don't come to me if you complain in the future. Chu Shaofu was not angry with his only son, just as Chu Huaixian knew in his heart that if he and his parents continued, there would be no more benefits. On the contrary, it was still Xiaochu who was unlucky.
Chu Huaixian has come to this point, which can be regarded as a small respite. The girls sent red date tea to Chu Shaofu. They hesitated and didn't know whether to give it to Chu Huaixian. Chu Shaofu took the tea in his hand and asked Chu Huaixian, "You have won. You are going to the palace today, and there are more people in your family when you come back. Do you go back to your room to have a look, or are you here?"
"I follow my father," Chu Huaixian got up from the ground and tried his best to show that he was not a greedy wife.
After the sun came out in the morning and the dewdrops faded, Mrs. Chu took time to come to see Lin Xiaochu. When I entered the door, I first saw the people waiting in the porch. They were not only maids, but also two close servants of Chu Huaixian in this inner house. Mrs. Chu nodded secretly and sighed, looking like a copper wall surrounded by an iron wall.
Longevity seemed to be very young, and he almost bowed his waist with caution: "Our young lady wants to raise it. What can I do for you, third lady?" Mrs. Chu laughed and said, "I'm her mother's aunt, so I can't come and have a look." After a long life, I added another sentence: "When you leave, please tell me the master's words, young lady, don't go out."
"I know," Mrs. Chu came to the room with her waist straight. Lin Xiaochu was full of confidence. Of course, Mrs. Chu was also full of confidence. She smiled and said, "I just came to see her."
When she came in to see Xiaochu, Mrs. Chu first smiled and said, "This is really different." Xiaochu could understand and replied to Mrs. Chu with a smile.
There was no peace all day. The third lady went. Of course, Mrs. Chu and the second lady would not come, and the stewiffs of the family came to congratulate her. Chunhen muttered outside, "This patient has been ill for a long time, and this visiting person seems to know it today."
In the evening, Xiaochu fell asleep for a while. Not long after I closed my eyes, I heard a crisp sound in my ear, which sounded extremely heavy. Then the girl cried and begged for mercy: "Son, please forgive me this time."
Chu Huaixian raised his eyebrows and looked coldly at Xiangsheng who came to serve him change his clothes. Xiangsheng covered his face with his hand, and the half of the face under his finger had gradually turned red and swollen for a moment. This slap was thick and heavy. Although Chu Huaixian did not save strength, he was also angry with himself in the past few days.
Joke! The eldest son himself wanted to be polite to the two maids. Mr. Chu looked for trouble and slapped him. He didn't seem to hear Xiangsheng's begging for mercy, and glanced at Dong Ran.
Dong Ran was calm and came to push Xiangsheng out. He pulled and cursed in a low voice: "Young lady just fell asleep, and you woke up." Chu Huaixian raised his leg and came in to see Xiaochu. Seeing that Xiaochu really woke up, he came in and asked, "What's wrong? What did it fall?" Chu Huaixian said with a smile as if nothing had happened, "It's okay."
