Chapter 173: Writing Spring Festival couplets
Xuejian and Xiaomei looked at each other. This little peach was silent and not very clever when she was at the Zhou family. Unexpectedly, after she came out, she didn't know whether the sea and sky had been wide from now on, or whether the birds had come out of the cage, which was surprisingly lively.
When Xiaotao came over, Xiaomei just put away the Go, ignored Xiaotao's sudden look, and only asked her to pay attention to some rules.
spit out her tongue. Xiaotao actually didn't care. First, she saluted Nangu Bo Jian and Jian, "Good Lord."
Nangu Bohun waved his hand carelessly, "I don't accept your insincere false courtesy. Let's listen to what irrelevant things you have to annoy your wife."
Because Xue saw that his throat was damaged and he was pregnant, he would pay special attention to his daily diet, especially during the Spring Festival. Everyone should be more careful. Although the amount of food and clothing is not enough to eat at Zhou's family, because of Nangubo's extra care, it is no worse than the serious masters.
Xuejian used to be unhappy without meat. Later, after she first came here, she couldn't eat meat once in ten days and a half months. Gradually, she got used to simply stir-fried green vegetables and boiled vegetables, and then gradually became the main vegetables. Now that she is pregnant, she naturally needs to improve. She has fixed two meats, two dishes and one soup, but Xiaoli Xiaotao is afraid that she will report the recipe in advance. Nangubo has long been used to this procedure.
Since moving to Dongsheng Village, most of the ingredients have been bought by their children. Since Nangubo came, they have specially brought fresh and rare ingredients from Qingzhou every time. Xuejian has taught Xiaotao and Xiaoli a lot of new practices. Naturally, Nangubo also began to understand why Wang Conghan could have a sense of familiarity after eating here.
"The prince made fun of the slave and maidservant again," Nan Gubo said interestingly and knew that he was easy-going. Xiaotao smiled and said, "Don't worry, this time it's the business." Then he turned his head and said to Xuejian, "The year is coming soon. Sister Xiaomei asked me to make a list for my wife a few days ago. I have to finish it today. Can I ask my wife to see if it's suitable?"
"It's just some gifts and necessities. You can make your own decisions. It's better not to bother me." Xue Jian laughed.
"Xue Jian, Xiaotao's girl's words have grown more and more. It seems that I didn't teach you in vain." Nangubo stretched out his head and took a rough look, and couldn't help praising him.
"My wife said that Xiaotao's words have grown up, not because the prince teaches well, but because Xiaotao is talented and intelligent." Xiaotao said proudly.
Xiaomei immediately looked at her. The girl couldn't even hear her daughter's t tease, so she smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes, Xiaotao is now a talented woman, Mandongsheng Village, and she is an invincible female talent."
When Xiaotao heard the words, she finally heard something wrong. Her face was a little blushing and complained coquettishly, "Sister Mei is also so narrow."
Nan Gubo immediately smiled and said, "Miss Xiaomei is also telling the truth. Miss Xiaotao is simple and pure, like jade, which is really unmatched."
Seeing that Nangubo finished speaking, he deliberately blinked at her to ask for credit. Xiaotao curled her lips and said, "I don't think the prince is praising Xiaotao."
"How can it be!" Nan Gubo just said it, and he laughed first. "Xue didn't feel bored when she saw that there was a girl like you beside her."
"Oh, really?" Seeing that everyone nodded together, Xiaotao muttered, "So that's it."
Xiaomei was completely speechless. Looking at Xiaotao and Nangubo chattering about the New Year, she carefully asked, "Well, prince, are you going back to the capital for the Spring Festival?" After a pause, I was a little embarrassed, but I still asked, "Is the capital... close to Dongsheng Village?"
Nangubo's smiling face stopped and immediately said as if nothing had happened, "Dongsheng Village is a little south, which is Qingzhou Prefecture. If Qingzhou Prefecture goes further south, it is the capital." After saying that, he deliberately compared with his hands, as if he could get there as soon as he raised his leg.
Xiaomei was relieved and thought that it was really not far away. Although the prince is very kind to his wife, if he delays going home for the holiday, he will also leave a bad impression on his wife if he thinks about his family.
By the way, what kind of official position is this prince? I'm afraid it's not more powerful than Mr. Bai's father, right? It must be better than the county magistrate! Because I heard that Mr. Wang's current official position is bigger than that of the county magistrate, but Mr. Wang is still polite when he sees this prince. So, how powerful is he?
Ying Tao never thought of this, but only said to Nangubo, "I just forgot to tell the prince. The New Year's couple originally intended to be written by the wife, but the wife said she was too lazy to write, so it's your turn to do this good thing!"
Xiaomei almost laughed, thinking that Xiaotao really dared to speak, but Nangubo's attitude was not unhappy at all, but she was also calm that the son of the world was really good to his wife.
"It's a small thing." Nangubo Road.
Xiaotao nodded solemnly, "Originally, it should be best to write this New Year's pair on New Year's Eve, but we understand that the prince has to go back to the capital, so it's okay to write it down in advance." As he said, he pointed to the study and made a gesture of invitation.
"All right!" Nangubo could only follow her, "You girl, you are in a hurry, and I'm afraid that I won't rely on you."
Xiaomei helped lay out the red paper. Xiaotao sharpened his hands and feet quickly and said, "In case it doesn't write well, we won't follow it. The prince has to be serious!"
Nan Gubo turned around, looked at Xiaotao, and said with a serious look, "I'm determined to take out my twelve points of energy and try to satisfy Miss Xiaotao, okay?"
The capital wants this prince Mobao, but there are not 1,000 or 800, but he wants to listen to a girl's education here.
Xiaomei squeezed her lips and tried to control herself from laughing, but the corners of her mouth involuntarily raised and said gently, "The prince is joking." Thinking of the kindness of the prince to his wife, this smile went all the way from his heart to his face.
Nan Gubo did not continue to tease him. Instead, he rolled up his sleeve, took it with a smile, and whispered, "Welcome the spring and auspiciousness, receive wealth and receive blessings and peace." Then he wrote the horizontal criticism in one breath, "Lucky!"
The more popular it is, the more everyone likes it. Sure enough, Xiaomei and Xiaotao both smiled and said that the Spring Festival couplets were good, festive and auspicious.
"Let my wife have a look!" Xiaotao didn't wait for Mo to dry, so she wanted to pick it up. She was stopped by Xiaomei and helped Xiaomei dry it together. He also said, "Well, it seems that I haven't heard my wife call me for a long time."
Hearing what Xiaotao said, Xiaomei also felt that she had not heard Xuejian for a long time. She quickly walked out of the study, and Xiaotao followed closely.
In the small hall, Xue Jian, who was holding the list, became in a trance. In the winter of the first year, in order to eat enough and wear warm clothes, the family fished and sold fish. At that time, I hurt my head because of Liulang's naughty robbed the wormoon girl. When I woke up, I saw Zhou Bo's tears flowing down. I don't know if the tears were sincere? Or is it fake? I don't know who he is happy and worried about now? Now he may have received the paper and the letter a long time ago and is preparing to marry a new man, right? Zhou Bo, do you remember that there was such a little woman who trusted you wholeheartedly and paid you a sincere heart without reservation, but was abandoned by you?
He also said that he would only guard her and accompany her in this life. Is it that when he doesn't eat, drink and have no money, he can see her, but when he has too many things, she is squeezed out of his heart? I didn't get money in my last life, but I didn't have a blessing in my life. And feelings are not something that is more harmful. I think it's honey, but in fact it's just arsenic.
Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, Xiaotao looked up and saw that Xue's face was pale and she was about to cry. The good mood just now also disappeared, and she was shocked: "Madam, are you... not having a good rest? Or is it uncomfortable?"
Xue was re settled and barely showed a smile that was worse than crying. "Nothing, maybe I just turned around for a long time and I was tired. Xiaomei, or you can help me in for a rest. Prince, please do as you like.
Xiaomei cleverly came to help her up: "Madam, get up slowly and be careful of dizziness."
Nan Gubo got up early and didn't think about it. He stood in front of her and reached out to hold her. "Zi Xin..." immediately realized his mistake. Looking at Xuejian, he only looked down at his hand, so he let go, retreated for a long time, and looked at her face carefully. "Is it really okay?" After all, nothing more has been said.
Xue saw a hum, shook her head, and went into the inner room without saying anything. Behind him, Nangubo said lowly to Xiaotao, "Why don't you go in and serve together? I'm helping to take care of the outside store..."
"Master, I think my wife must be thinking about the past. Looking at my wife's appearance, she must be thinking about Zhou..." No matter how stupid Xiaotao is, she also knows that she has said too much, spit out her tongue and followed in.
"I'm fine, just stuffy in my chest." Xuejian pretended not to hear what she said to Nangubo and asked Xiaomei to lie down**, "Don't worry about me. I'll just sleep for a while. Get up and eat."
Xiao Meiye's movement was eased by the horn. In fact, she also knew that Xuejian was a heart disease, but this heart disease was the most difficult to treat. Before coming to Dongsheng Village, Xu Cong'an specially made a special note that this pregnant woman's mood was the most unstable, and she was afraid that she would think more and be more sad. She knew that Zhou Bo was so good with his wife that he spoiled her so much that he would marry someone else as an ordinary wife. I'm afraid anyone would not be able to stand this kind of blow.
She looked at the outside room and didn't know what kind of psychology the man outside was doing to his wife? He sighed slightly, put down the curtain and retreated.
"Master, look at this lunch..." Looking at Nangubo sitting outside, Xiaomei hurried over to ask.
Nan Gubo was also familiar with them, nodded, and went to the front snack shop with them. Facing two dishes, two meat and one soup, it obviously tasted the same as usual, but without snow around, the taste seemed to be much more plain.
