Chapter 159: Liu Jiayatong
Liu Yatong sat obediently next to her mother Sha, with a decent smile, listening to Sha and Du talking all the way. This is the gourd we specially sent to the stew. On the 15th, we queued up three days in advance. Look at this shape, let me guess, I can't guess that it's really a gourd. It is said that this gourd is supernatural and can also bring blessings to people. If you have money or no luck, you can't ask for it.
Du's face was awkward and nervous, and he whispered, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a gourd, but it's more amazing..."
Seeing that she didn't agree, Sha hurriedly whispered, "What's wrong? Haven't we heard of it when we were in the capital? This gourd..."
Du said hesitantly, "This 'Fulu Building', this 'Fulu Building' was opened by Bo Geer last year."
Sha was shocked, "I didn't expect Brother Bo to be so capable. How long has it been since he made a comeback and took care of the Zhou family so prosperously? You are really blessed." No wonder the Zhou family had few left after raiding the house. This time, Zhou Shangyi was rescued and it was done. At that time, I guessed that it would take tens of thousands of taels of money to do it.
Liu Yatong also stared. She thought that the Zhou family had been forced to come here and used all the money. The old house must have been renovated for a long time. Last year, it was the epicenter of the earthquake and must not look good. Therefore, when he came, he deliberately coaxed his mother for a long time, and then his mother took out hundreds of taels of private rooms to help the Zhou family repair it. Who would have thought that this time in Pingshan Village, which accounts for nearly 30% of the village's yard, is the Zhou family. The red walls and high tiles are full of style, the servants are like clouds, full of rules, luxurious decoration, all of which are exquisite. After listening to Du's explanation, I knew that these family funds were set up by Zhou Bo in the past two years.
Seeing the surprise of the mother and daughter of the Liu family, Du's face was a little uncomfortable, "What can and can't be done is better luck." Looking up, he saw Du's mother gesture outside, knowing that the bath water was ready, so he asked them to take a bath and rest first, and then turned his head to look at Aunt Du and asked, "Didn't they come back?"
"Our peaceful house is a young man... It was selected by the young master himself. The second mother likes it very much, so they have been living there for the past few months."
Du's face sank, "You know that's not what I want to hear!" Since Xue saw the accident that day, Zhou Bo picked her up and went directly to Anning. Several children in the family, except for Sanlang's teaching, could not leave, and the youngest three were stopped, and the others followed one after another. The family suddenly became lonely, and Du and others were shocked and scared. Fortunately, Duofu came back to report the letter that afternoon. Xue saw that there was no danger, so she was relieved. I didn't expect this child to be so strong that the family didn't say anything. He was going to die.
And those children actually lived in peace again and never came back. Er Niang asked someone to say that she would come back when the snow fell well. There is also Qi Niang, her most obedient little Qi Niang, who actually said that she had only one sister-in-law, that is, Xue Jian. What's going on? She didn't say anything and became a bad person in the child's eyes!
"The young lady has been half unconscious, and the soup is difficult to get in, and the in-laws knew about this and never let the young master enter the door again. Now, I don't know what's going on..."
Du took a look at Aunt Du. Aunt Du has been with herself for many years and is now talking to Xuejian. Alas, who knows her difficulties?
Thinking of this, Du was indescribably uncomfortable and sighed, "Anyway, I have to let Brother Bo come back. The child was not cold before. Although there was anything rude, his attitude has never been warm. Now... Anyway, the mother and daughter of the Liu family have come all the way far away, he must You have to show your face."
Hearing this, Aunt Du couldn't help sighing. She never thought that Xue Jian would be so determined. Will Zhou Bo leave in this situation?
I soaked in a comfortable medicinal bath, and then took a little for a moment. Not to mention Liu Yatong, even Sha Shi was satisfied. Is the Zhou family extremely prosperous and blessed?" She was originally a common daughter who could not be favored by a large family. She married Liu Le'an, who was still a poor scholar at that time. She was originally made by her mother. Who would have thought that Liu Le'an was competitive and went all the way to the palace. Although she was not a talented person, she was also well-behaved. Her career was not fast, but she was also stable. The Liu family is not very large. They have one wife and one concubine. The eldest son and eldest daughter are all born by the Sha family. The concubine son is young, and the family is also beautiful. This also made Sha's mother's house, suppress her mother and raise her aunt.
Thinking of this, Sha's heart was particularly happy. Looking at his gentle and beautiful daughter, he smiled even more from his heart.
The mother and daughter cleaned up a little and had a few pieces of tea. Du came to visit again: "You two have come from afar. You must stay for a few more days this time, and you are not allowed to despise the poverty of Pingshan Village."
"There will be more time to live in the future. Don't be bored." Sha was happy and couldn't help laughing, but made Liu Yatong blush and lowered her head.
"My aunt's dessert is very special. Is it the flavor here?" Liu Yatong picked up a piece of dessert and said.
Du was stunned. When he heard that Xue Jian came out of this snack, he felt uncomfortable thinking about it. Fortunately, Yatong is a good child with a simple and gentle personality, otherwise how can she stay in this house with snow everywhere!
Sha also nodded repeatedly, "I will definitely let Gu's mother study hard later." When I came to Zhou's house this time, I wanted to help again, and then discussed my daughter's marriage. Yatong's age can't be delayed any longer. Now that I have arrived at the Zhou family, everything is good and extremely good. My daughter is really blessed. It seems that she has married to Fuwo.
"Mom, stop talking." Yatong pulled the corner of Sha's clothes in the back, with a red face and a happy face, and a secret shy surprise in her heart. Sure enough, she didn't misread this Zhou Bo. He looked around with a red face and asked, "Why did you come here for half a day? I didn't see Xian Niang's sister?"
Sha put down and wiped the corners of his mouth and nodded: "No, but I didn't see those children come to make trouble." There are many children in the Zhou family. When they are in the capital, Du Shi must take Xiao Hachiro with him.
Du's suffering words, how dare to say that he is afraid that Xiao Hachilang's mouth will be unobstructed? I had to say, "We still have a yard in peace. Usually, their brothers and sisters live there. Today, I have ordered someone to pick them up. I think they will all come back tomorrow."
Hearing this, Aunt Du slowly retreated. It seemed that she could only run this trip by herself, otherwise several young masters and ladies would definitely not come back. Anyway, it's serious to come back and round your wife's field first.
"It's not a day or two, why are you in such a hurry?" Sha's naturally polite words.
I don't know when Liu Le'an and Zhou Shangyi met. Anyway, they all arrived in the capital at first sight. Although Liu Le'an was a Beijing official, he did not look down on Zhou Shangyi, a businessman, so he slowly connected again. However, because of the big difference, it was not eye-catching, but secretly and low-key private communication. . Until after a drunkenness, the verbal agreement came about.
Zhou Bo has no deep impression of Liu Yatong. After all, the boundary between the back house and the front yard is still clear. At that age, Zhou Bo himself had an open-room girl. He had an understanding of men and women, and did not lack sexual experience. In addition, he was young and strong, and he was in love and hate business. Therefore, he did not reject or active in this agreement. It was reasonable for his parents to choose a daughter-law who was praised in all aspects. What was expected.
However, in which era, women are more solemn and more worried about this kind of thing than men. After hearing that she was given the eldest son of the Zhou family, Liu Yatong was also accompanied by her sisters and secretly looked at him several times through the screen. Although everyone said that he was cold and conceited, she felt that such Zhou Bo was better than those The young master of the official family has more men's taste. This made her secretly relieved. She didn't want to marry a vain dage.
With such satisfaction, she also followed her mother to visit Zhou's house several times and met Er Niang and others, which made her even more satisfied. Although the Zhou family is a businessman, these sisters are all sensible, many times better than their so-called grandmother's eyes above their heads. They hate her and have to flatter the sisters who hate her. Zhou Bo's mother and several aunts, heard from their mother, are also less likely to have the messy house fights of large households in the capital.
So, even if this marriage is not right, even if this marriage finally gives her sisters a chance to raise their eyebrows in front of her, and even if her grandmother's family repeatedly opposes, she smiles and doesn't pay attention to it. A peaceful and comfortable life is her yearning; her gentle and calm years are her vision. Who knew that with a thunder on a sunny day, the Zhou family was implicated in the Huangshang case. Liu Le'an did not hide it from his wife and daughter. Unexpectedly, except for Sha's slight hesitation, everyone was dedicated to helping the Zhou family. The Zhou family said whether it was big or not, because Wudehou was eaten and died, but also because Princess Jinyang was exempted from the death penalty, but when the case can be overturned, it is indefinite.
This is also the beginning when Liu Yatong really integrated herself into the Zhou family. Liu Le'an is not a reckless person. His previous dealings with Zhou Shangyi are unknown, and now he hides in a secret place to entrust someone to find a relationship and try to make Zhou Shangyi suffer less. Sha and Liu Yatong also helped the women of the Zhou family rent a small courtyard not far from their back door, which is convenient to take care of.
In order to save money, Du only left two former loyal women to do some kitchen and work and wash. Fortunately, there are four close-fitting girls to accompany them without pay, and also help with some needlework to repair the family.
And Liu Yatong's companionship and comfort are particularly heartwarming in this special period.
Similarly, for Liu Yatong, this kind of dissolution is also a novel experience that gives her a sense of existence. Listening to the four women of the Zhou family, occasionally rubbing, occasionally bickering, occasionally picky, but they have been insisting on living together in adversity and never giving up, which moved her and made her envious. Thinking that she would also support each other and take care of her husband and mother-in-law in such a family, Yatong's heart raised a kind of yearning and happiness.
