Chapter 23 Courtesy

The next day, just after the beginning of Mao, the two maids began to start a fire and boil water, serving Dusha to bathe and change clothes. Rong Hui jumped to the roof and quietly inserted the shabby tile under the pretext of "cai qi cai qi in the morning". Dusha read books in the main room, and the two little maids cleaned up the boxes and cages.

One is called Dewdrop and the other is called Raindrop, both of whom were born. Although he has just left his head, his eyebrows are very beautiful. In addition, he is lively and cheerful, smart, and does things well. Like a little adult, he is naive.

Dusha left the driver and her daughter-in-law to look at the yard, one taels of silver a month, and asked the driver's daughter-in-law to go out and send a message: "Labha to pay the rent, the amount is still the same!" The driver was so happy that he took the initiative to go to the street to hire a car.

The three people were so busy that Rong Hui could only sit on the roof and watch the fun. Seeing that except for the large wooden utensils, the small pieces of decoration were full of twelve cages, and I couldn't help stroking my forehead: "Brother, this is not a good deed. It's obvious that you should invite your ancestors to return to peace!"

At noon, under the shade of weeping willows, the driver's daughter-in-law prepared a table of food in the courtyard and finally said goodbye to everyone. Du Sha looked at the empty main room and sighed for a long time, but her heart was much lighter.

After lunch, Rong Hui drove the mule car in person, led three double mule cars, and went straight east. The driver arrived at Qiyi Town just before the beginning. Seeing that the sun is poisonous, Rong Hui should not rush on his way. He plans to rest for one night and go into the mountain tomorrow morning.

When the three drivers saw that it was still early, they advised Rong Hui: "Let the mules and horses rest for this time. Shenchu will set off at dusk. We will rest in the guest room on the mountain and go to the incense tomorrow morning, which will be blessed.

Rong Hui also wanted to go back to the mountain earlier, so he found a shade for everyone and bought it under the scorching sun. In addition to the "peach blossom cover" that Xiaojune wanted, she bought Xiaoxuan a phoenix head hairpin with silver ears. The silver ear is a cluster of extremely fine silver wire. When the breeze blows, it shines in the sun, which is very beautiful. Finally, I found an embroidery shop to buy many new flowers for Yan Ling.

He sorted out a lot of debris, went back to Qiuyue Restaurant for a cup of tea, and secretly picked out the 20 taels of silver under the bed. After a moment of greeting with Mr. Xiao, the time is approaching. So he hugged a big basket and went back to the motorcade.

Everyone set out for the first time and went up the mountain at dusk. Dusha asked the room stewor to rent a "incense guest house", and everyone took a rest for a while.

Rong Hui held a basket of debris and went straight back to the backyard of the pharmacy. First, I went to the canteen for dinner, fed back hot water, and changed a piece of fine cotton. After cleaning up a little and cleaning out the debris that others wanted, he went directly to Xiaoyaxuan with the basket in his arms.

Xiaojuan was so happy that she invited Rong Hui to the hospital for tea on the spot. Rong Hui had wanted to go in for a long time, but was stopped by Xiaoxuan: "Go! There are no rules!" With that, he walked out of the courtyard door and went straight out. She wore a pair of butterfly-shaped earrings, a fairy dress, half-armed orange, and a large-sleeved silk shirt, floating like the wind and elegant posture.

Rong Hui put down the basket with a smile and turned to follow. After leaving the Taiji Gate, I talked about my experience all the way. As they walked, they said, and when they preached Hu Shirong, Xiaoxuan's face was gloomy and said coldly, "Sure enough, it's her!"

Rong Hui said that when he entered the military camp, Xiaoxuan praised him for his cleverness. When it comes to the guests at the banquet, Xiaoxuan couldn't help laughing and corrected repeatedly: "The one who held the golden sword is the prince of the 'God Sword Gate', Xiong Zhuoyu..."

Without finishing his words, Rong Hui laughed and said, "Xiong Zhuoyu, bear catches fish, is this both fish and bear paw? Thanks to him, I can figure it out!"

Xiaoxuan couldn't help laughing. She was annoyed that she interrupted her words, raised her hand and hit him, and then said, "The sword gate started with swordsmanship, and its skills are from the outside to the inside. The unique learning is a 'hidden sword', which is very powerful. The disciples who went out under his door were either as darts masters, or fast arresters, and then as guardians for large families of rich families, with a wide range of social relations.

Xiaoxuan was like a few treasures, and then talked about the mean-to-men: "That's the head of the 'Shenfeng Gate', Xu Chengfeng. They are good at light skills and act very secretly. He went out either a thief who stole a thousand families at night and stole hundreds of households every day. Or he is a killer who collects money and works hard, and the most elite disciples are mostly employed by the heavenly family to act as meticulous work.

Then he talked about the red-haired man: "That's the general handle of 'Jiuling Eighteen Villages', nicknamed 'Red-eyed Wolf'. There is no other ability except 'dare to fight and dare to kill and not be afraid of death, and forcibly buy and sell morality'.

She smiled and then said, "The man in armor is not a powerful general. He is the head of the Shield Gate, Fang Yi. His disciples are all born as craftsmen and are best at making armor, crossbows and so on, exclusively for the Beijing army.

It's the golden ring again: "He is not a street player. He is a master of machine spring pins, the head of the 'divine machine door', Mr. Ji Ben. Their family has been sacrificed by the heavenly family for generations. His disciples are either skilled craftsmen and work as 'shanggong bureau'. Or he is a master of arranging organs and making hidden weapons. The last one in linen is the 'Baizai' in the camp.

Rong Hui suddenly realized: "So you are fighting with so many people!" I'm no longer embarrassed to ask her if she is willing to marry me. I just want to go through fire and water to share her worries.

Xiaoxuan's face was as heavy as water, and he muttered leisurely: "Since ancient times, Shilin's relatives have been like water and fire. Only when the kings are in check and balance can they meet the source. With a three-grade commander, can he invite them to come forward? Is it the intention of the Tian family? ...The two generations of the head of the State of Chen rely on foreign relatives to rise to power. Is it that this state lord not only wants to get married, but also wants to get rid of foreign relatives, so he has to suppress it first? ...The court can't open the situation, so we have to start from us! ...If this is true, this queen must be a 'good son'!"

When Rong Hui saw him talking to himself, he only heard a general idea: "Immortals fight, and the people suffer!" I didn't ask many questions for a moment, just walked slowly with her. Xiaoxuan came back in a trance for a long time and then asked, "Go on!"

Rong Hui talked about Dusha. Xiaoxuan was stunned, looked sideways at Rong Hui for a long time, and then sighed softly, "I also want to end this past. Since you arrange it like this, it's a break. Take her to the 'Imeasurable Pavilion' to see me tomorrow!"

Rong Hui breathed a sigh of relief and agreed with a smile. Xiaoxuan teased him again: "I didn't expect that you would also pity Xiang Xiyu. Are you moved by the beauty of others?

Rong Hui's heart was numb and he said it was not good. He knows Xiaoxuan too well. The more casual he asks, the more scheming he is. If he can't answer well, he will quarrel again. He turned his mind and said softly, "I'm moved by compassion." Squeezing out this sentence, I have been sweating. He quickly took out a handkerchief from his arms, took out a silver hairpin, and said softly, "I miss you all the way!"

Xiao Xuan blushed and whispered to him: "What are you talking about?" Raise your hand and hit him.

A heart beats, and the two bays of autumn water smile. Rong Hui looked at her eyes, and she closed her eyes and didn't let him see them. The other was pounding, his hands were numb, and he put silver hairpins in his tremblingly. He had sweated heavily and raised his hand to wipe it with a handkerchief.

Xiaoxuan opened her eyes and saw it and was furious: "You look for a fight!" Raise your hand and pat Rong Hui's face.

Rong Hui was nervous. When he saw his palm, his feet moved forward and his body retreated by ten feet. One insisted on beating him up. A secret "confused" rebelled. The fists came and went, and they were dismantled again, and the genius stopped in the middle of the month. Rong Hui took out the handkerchief and handed it to Xiaoxuan to wipe his sweat before revealing this small section.

The next morning, the pharmacy was on duty with Wanrong and Qin Qin. Rong Hui went to thank him first: "Thank you for taking these things for my class!" Saying that, he gave them a bunch of small objects. Qin Qin was secretly ashamed and blushed and said, "Let the younger brother spend money."

Wanrong was very interested. He first picked up a wooden puppy and thanked him with a smile, "I'm sorry to trouble you. Let's make it even." Rong Hui made a little greeting, went to the canteen for breakfast, and then went to the "incense courtyard" to pick up Dusha.

The three drivers have gone down the mountain. Raindrops and dewdrops were tidying up the boxes and cages. Seeing Rong Hui come in, they shouted timidly, "Good morning, prince!" Just run to bring tea. Another hurriedly greeted the room: "Madam, here comes the prince!" When I went to a strange world, I was too timid.

Rong Hui was inconvenient to enter the house, so he stood in the courtyard to explain his intention. Dusha combed her bun and wore beads on her temples, which was dignified and elegant. He changed into a blue dark coat, with silk edges and generously. After going out, I looked down at the upper and saw that it was still clean, so I went to the "Imless Pavilion" with Rong Hui.

Sese and Brother arrived at the "Insurable Pavilion" early. When they heard that their mother came back, they climbed up and down in the corridor happily. They were so scared that Xiaojuan and Xiaoyue exclaimed repeatedly for fear that they would fall. As soon as Dusha entered the moon hole door, she saw two little guys jumping over. So he squatted down with a smile and opened his arms.

Xiaojuan and Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to the main room. Rong Hui was also happy for them. Suddenly, he felt that he was really a good man. He smiled and heard Dusha whisper behind his ear, "Do you want to see your mother?" So are you good?" Did Brother Xi eat well?" Didse se sleep obediently? ......

Rong Hui came to the main room and waved to her in front of the door with a smile when he saw Xiaoxuan sitting in the room drinking tea. Xiaojuan went out and warned in a low voice, "Remember, you still owe me two knives for 'peach blossom notes'."

Rong Hui thought he was going to give money, so he couldn't help smiling bitterly: "I'll cut you twice!" Saying that, she raised her palms and cut her words, and Xiaojuan dodged to avoid it.

Dusa brought Seser and Brother, left two children, and went straight into the hall by herself. Xiaoxuan pointed to the seat and whispered, "Sit down!" Xiaoyue gave her another cup of tea and also sat next to Xiaoxuan.

Dusha was not sure and sat down slowly. Xiaoxuan said with a serious look, "I don't care about anything now, and I don't have time to give it to you. Fortunately, you can grow flowers, so go to the flower house steward! That's a third-class position, five taels a month. From now on, you will have to live by craftsmanship.

People in the world lick blood at the edge of the knife, and it is inevitable that the home ions will scatter. It is also a consolation for a certain surviving woman on the mountain to take care of a matter. Xiaoxuan made such an arrangement, even if it was not to blame the past. Dusha is in her new years. If she meets an honest person again, she will not be able to marry again.

She was happy with the color, stood up and saluted, took out a piece of brown paper from her arms and presented it to Xiaoxuan. She whispered, "This is the deed, land deed and lease of Sanliwan!"

Xiaoxuan looked motionless and did not say anything, but looked at Dusha lightly. Dusha was stunned for a moment, put the contract on the coffee table, and then returned to sit down. Xiaoxuan continued: "When my brother is six years old, he will be sent to 'Xiao Yaxuan' for enlightenment. At the age of eight, he will practice martial arts. At the age of ten, he will go down the mountain and go to the college to study."

Dusa has heard that Xiaoyue and Xiaojuan have excellent knowledge. Although they read idle books, they are better than increasing their knowledge. It is a great opportunity for them to be enlightened by their children. Seeing that his son had a future, he smiled happily and got up to salute Xiaoyue deeply.

Rong Hui heard clearly outside the door and was psychologically envious. He was just confused by his mother at home and finally recognized all the commonly used words. Later, he went to the restaurant to do handyman and followed Yan Liang to read half of the Analects of Confucius.

Xiaoxuan looked motionless and then said, "There is no steward with maids on the mountain. The two little maids either go back to their respective homes or get a third-class deacon's errand!"

When Dusha heard the sound, she nodded and agreed, "Yes, I'll return the deed of sale to them and let them decide for themselves." Seeing Xiaoxuan nodded slightly and picked up the tea cup, he immediately got up and said goodbye, went out to take the two children, and went back to the guest house.

Xiaoxuan breathed a sigh of relief: "We also have a small farm. Who should watch it!"

"This is obviously a plunder!" Xiaoyue smiled bitterly and couldn't help touching her forehead. Xiaoxuan urged her, "Don't be stunned, take the pen and ink!" So I wrote a recommendation and used my own private seal. He asked Rong Hui to take it and take Dusha to the "Liaofang".

From the top of the mountain to the head, the elders, to the stewens and worship, they are all unique courtyards. The flowers and bonsai in the house and the flowers and trees in the courtyard are customized. Since Xin's mother left, there has been no good person. There were a lot of things in the first half of the year, and this little thing has been delayed.

The first seat in the dormitory is Sun Xiaojin, who knows Xiaoxuan's "dressing up" Yawang. After reading the note without saying a word, he gave Dusha the steward of the flower room and told him: "In the future, the expenses of the flower house will be reported by it, and you have to keep it carefully."

Raindrops and dewdrops are free and willing to stay on the mountain. So he became a flower house deacon, took 500 monthly cases, and registered them together. Shuiyuntang dialed a small courtyard in the "Taisu Gate" as usual. Rong Hui helped Dusha move the cage, and then the three settled down.

Rong Hui returned to the backyard of the pharmacy and wiped his face happily. He picked up another flower and went to Yan Ling's place. The sewing room is adjacent to the middle street, monopolizing a three-in and three-out courtyard. There is not only a workshop and a warehouse in the courtyard, but also a small canteen. The embroidered women's single room is very superior.

Rong Hui found Yan Ling. She wore an ink half arm with lotus leaf embroidery, describing it as plain and elegant. The long skirt covers the floor, covers the silk shirt, and is embroidering a screen of "Xunji Picture" under the green shade. One needle and one thread, not tight or slow, quiet and comfortable.

The screen has big red satin, gold silk embroidery, and uniform hairpin in small regular script. It's both festive and beautiful. As soon as Rong Hui saw it, he knew that it was on the wedding of the family, and he was complaining about her: "Who is so boring? Just write a happy word on big piece of gold paper. Isn't this tossing people alive?"

Yan Ling heard that he was coming, and her hands did not stop, and she hummed: "This is called 'Shuangbingzhai is clean and pure, I hope who wants to be close to'. Of course you don't understand at a young age.

Rong Hui only felt bored: "I went down the mountain yesterday and saw the new flowers, so I bought a pile. I don't know if you need it!" With that, he put a piece of brown paper next to Yan Ling.

"You have this heart!" Yan Ling kept glancing at her hand and said with a smile, "I made a pair of shoes two days ago. You can give them to her and keep them as she likes!"

Rong Hui was at a loss and didn't know what to say, so he turned around and left. Wait!" Yan Ling put aside the needle and thread, quickly entered the house and took out a pair of plain cloth shoes. Rong Hui was so embarrassed that he reluctantly took it.

The sole is thick and soft, with excellent toughness. A pink peach blossom was embroidered on the top of the shoes, the stamens were nailed with a bow with golden and red silk, and the butterfly wings were embroidered with silk threads. The breeze brushed, trembling and very realistic. Rong Hui blushed and thanked him. He put it directly into his arms and fled, which made Yan Ling smile.

In the afternoon, Rong Hui and Wan Rong were on duty. Hearing that "Lu Xiaocheng lost 800 taels of silver to each of the three families of Fangqin, the three families did not make trouble", and there was a sigh in his heart. He practiced martial arts with Xiaoxuan in the evening and dared to send embroidered shoes before leaving. Xiaoxuan was not very happy when she heard that it was made by Yan Ling. It can be seen that he blushed and grabbed his ears and cheeks. He didn't want to refute his face, so he took it generously.
