Concubine Raiders Chapter 217: Happy New Year (Part 1)
Chapter 217 Happy New Year (Part I)
Bin Ju hurriedly explained to the side: "Madam, the fifth young master heard that you are back, and we have to come to see you. We can't stop us..."
It's mainly because Xu Sijie is now a young master, so it's hard to stop it!
Eleven Niang watched him clenched into a fist, and asked softly: "Brother Jie, do you want me to eat candy? Give me the Wosi candy that Brother Chen gave you?" /
He put his arms in his arms by Binju, lowered his head, and said nothing in a daze.
Eleven Mother felt soft and sighed softly.
The refusal that she showed subconsciously made this child sad!
Eleven Niang got up, touched his head, her voice became softer: "Brother Jie, do you want to give me candy?"
Xu Sijie raised his head and looked at Eleven Mother with some uncertainty.
Eleven Mother looked at him with a smile.
The two looked at each other silently.
Bin Ju said nervously: "Madam, after you leave, the Fourth Young Master wants to teach the Fifth Young Master to kick the shuttlecock, but the Fifth Young Master refuses to come back; the Fourth Young Master took out the walnut cake to coax the Fifth Young Master, but he still couldn't help it. I had to take the Fifth Young Master back. He refused to enter the house again, holding the pillars of the veranda in front of the door, but refused to go. We had no choice but to wrap the Fifth Young Master in a cloak and stand with him. When it was time to eat, he Not willing to let go, Dongqing and I not only took turns to persuade him, but also brought the mutton soup made by our mother Wu on the stove here and coaxed him into the house for dinner... finally coaxed the fifth young master into the house. I don’t know who said it. In one sentence, Madam is back. He turned down the chair and ran into your room." As she said, her voice gradually lowered, "We are still wondering why the fifth master clenched his fist and didn't let go... I didn't expect the hand There is a candy in it."
Eleven Niang's expression gradually became calm and serene, she said again: "Brother Jie, is the Wo Si Tang given by Brother Jian delicious?"
He nodded, shook his head again, and then slowly opened his fisted hand.
Because the rosy wosi candy that was too long and melted when it was held, once again appeared in front of Eleven.
Eleven Niang smiled and contained sugar in his palm.
It may be because of the sweat on my hands, the entrance is a bit salty.
"Yeah!" The corners of her mouth curled up, and a smile rippled in her eyes, "This nest of silk candy is so sweet."
Xu Sijie pursed his mouth and smiled, his beautiful phoenix eyes gleaming like stars in the summer night.
Eleven Niangphen asked Bin Ju: "Help him wash his hands, and then find out his candy-lest he hide in the bed or melt under the pillow." Thinking about it, I felt wrong, and added, "Give him a small box specially used to put things, and let him develop the habit of putting things in the box."
Bin Ju nodded hurriedly.
Eleven Niang smiled and rubbed Xu Sijie's head: "Remember, what to do next time, remember to tell me first!" Then she looked at him sincerely and asked what he meant.
Xu Sijie nodded and suddenly said: "Sugar sweet."
Eleven Niang hurriedly showed a big smile: "Our brother Jie is really good. Let's talk to me like this in the future. Do you know?"
Xu Sijie smiled and nodded.
Eleven Mother asked Bin Ju: "Have he eaten?"
Bin Ju has a bitter face: "I ate two dumplings."
I haven't eaten it yet...
Eleven Niang thought for a while and said: "Young Master and Second Young Master are they still playing with Mrs. Tai?"
When they entered the palace to congratulate them, they handed all the children to Mama Du.
Bin Ju nodded: "When I came, several young masters were all sleeping in the Fourth Young Master's room!"
Eleven Niang smiled and said to Xu Si: "Do you want to follow me?"
Xu Sijie nodded repeatedly.
Eleven Niang smiled and said: "What did I tell you just now? What are you going to do, you have to say it. Do you know?"
Xu Sijie immediately said: "I follow!"
"Well, you can feed Binju your dumplings, and I will take you with you."
When Xu Sijie heard this, he pushed Binju away and ran out.
"Fifth Young Master!" Bin Ju stomped her feet, hurriedly said "I'll go see" to Eleven, and chased him up.
Amber, who served by the side, smiled and said: "Are you really going to bring the Five Young Masters by your side? I'm afraid someone will come to pay you a New Year greeting!"
Eleven Niang smiled and said: "Let the little maid tell him in the interior that he is ready to kick the shuttlecock."
Xu Sijie is not a clingy child, as long as Eleven Niang is where he can see, he will be quiet. If Eleven Niang meets guests in the east and lets the little maid lead him to the west, he will definitely not make a noise.
Through observations over the past few days, Amber has more or less learned about Xu Sijie’s habits. After hearing what Eleven Niang said, she did not refute it. She helped Eleven Niang change a pink plain brocade twill with dark green inlays. Xu Lingyi, who was wearing home-style casual clothes, walked in the skirt by the side: "Are you ready?"
His eyes lit up.
The pink brocade made her face peach blossom.
"Okay!" Xi Niang smiled and stood up, "But Binju is still feeding Brother Jie for dinner--let's wait!"
Xu Lingyi frowned slightly: "When is this, why are you still eating? I have to tell him the rules in the future."
"He just came!" Eleven Niang smiled, "There is a process of getting used to."
Xu Lingyi said nothing, and sat on the big kang by the window.
"We also made dumplings on the stove today. Why don't I come to Houye to cushion my stomach?"
"No need." Xu Lingyi refused without even thinking.
Eleven Niang thought of his three meals a day, no snacks, fruits, and supper, and she didn't force her to sit down with him with a smile.
"Let's go to Jiang's house in the afternoon!" Xu Lingyi said suddenly, "Raise your head to marry your daughter, lower your head to marry your daughter-in-law. Besides, this marriage was booked by the old lady of the Jiang family and Jiang Bai. Jiang Song is not very pleased. Our family It’s more sincere."
Don’t blame many people! Besides, when you reach Xu Lingyi's status, others will only think you are humble.
Eleven Niang nodded: "I looked at the account book a few days ago, and such relatives exchanges, but the courtesy is only fifty taels..."
"Only fifty taels!" Xu Lingyi said without hesitation, "I will let Manager Zhao pick a few calligraphy and paintings from the library and send them over."
Eleven Niang nodded and said yes, took the T-shaped pair of cards given by Mrs. Tai and asked Amber to pick up the painting.
The little maid came to report: "Five young masters are here!"
"Come in!" Eleven Niang nodded, and Bin Ju walked in holding Xu Sijie.
Xu Sijie saw Xu Lingyi also present, his eyes sparkled immediately.
Bin Ju led him to salute Xu Lingyi. He stood motionless and looked up at Xu Lingyi, completely devoid of the agility of the past, looking a little dazed.
Eleven Niang looked funny, and said: "I'll eat it so soon?"
Because of Xu Lingyi's presence, Bin Ju's attitude is very respectful: "I ate nine dumplings!"
Eleven Niang nodded, and smiled at Xu Sijie: "Brother Jie is really good."
Xu Sijie is happy.
Xu Lingyi frowned: "Why doesn't this kid speak?"
Xu Sijie looked at it and immediately stepped back two steps slightly, his face tight.
Eleven Mother couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward and hugged Xu Sijie: "Let’s go to Madam Tai!"
"Can't he walk?" Xu Lingyi got up and said strangely, "Let Binju hug? You are careful that the child slips on the ground."
It's really hard to hug a three-year-old child at first. Eleven Niang Yiyan gave the child to Bin Ju and said with a smile: "It takes two cups of tea to go to Mrs. Tai. Brother Jie is still too young."
Xu Lingyi just asked casually.
He has no experience in dealing with children.
The first time I became a father, the child was in his stomach when he left, and when he came back, the child could run and jump. At the meeting of Brother Chen, he had moved to Banyuepan, and later went on an expedition...
Eleven Niang was thinking about going to Jiang's house.
On the first day of the New Year, I just came back from the palace. The first thing I did was to visit Jiang's house.
It seems that he not only decided to complete this marriage, but also attached great importance to it.
She thought about something she had always kept in her heart---Brother Chen's teacher candidates.
"Master Hou, the second sister-in-law said last time that Brother Qin and Brother Yu are both very knowledgeable. Would you like to invite a Xixi Xixi? The Jiang family would recommend someone to their hometown school. Why don't you ask the Jiang family to help recommend someone..."
Xu Lingyi gently shook his head: "After all, our two families did not formally celebrate." After a pause, he said, "What's more, the Jiang family's school attaches more importance to stereotypes than poetry and poetry. I think it's fine!"
Eleven Niang thought that Xu Lingyi once said that the deceased Master Hou also prevented San Ye from participating in the imperial examination.
She thought about when she was in Luo's house again. Both the eldest master and the eldest wife instructed Luo Zhenxing and Luo Zhensheng to participate in the imperial examination for their stereotyped essays. They also said that poetry, poetry, and poetry are evil ways. The Xu family’s approach was the opposite, discouraging children from participating in the imperial examination. You should know that in the Great Zhou Dynasty, only those who were born in the imperial examination were the right way to recruit scholars, and the others were regarded as wild fox Zen and could not get on the stage. Xu Lingyi had a concubine and a prostitute, but the marquis of Yongping only had one title. To minimize these contradictions, the best way is to encourage children to be self-sufficient. In the final analysis, the battle for the title is a competition for the right to survive. If other children have the ability to survive, the coveting heart for the title will It is much lighter than those children who cannot take care of themselves.
Eleven mothers hope that Xu Siyu and Xu Sijie can support themselves...
"Hou Ye's thoughts are really strange." She tried to communicate with Xu Lingyi, "I have only heard of teaching my children to learn eight-piece essays. I have never heard of someone asking Mr. Xixi to teach eight-piece essays. !"
Eleven Niang is a daughter of Luo's family, and grows up in the inner courtyard. These views are naturally the views of the Luo family.
Xu Lingyi said: "We are different from the Luo family."
Eleven Niang was slightly startled.
Does it mean that the Xu family is a hereditary family of public officials?
Xu Lingyi couldn't help but smile when he saw a trace of confusion flashed through Shi Niang's eyes.
No matter how smart the eleven mother is, she lacks some knowledge after all.
"After the imperial examination, the Baishen family did not use it to shine its lintel. After entering the post, there are fellow villagers, classmates, and family asylums. My family of the minister is different. It is appointed to the emperor and loyal to the emperor. Prosperity and wealth belong to the emperor alone." Xu Lingyi said euphemistically, "We can't get long and look at Shu, we have broken the rules."
Eleven Niang chewed Xu Lingyi's words for a while before she understood ~IndoMTL.com~ People like the Luo family can only thrive a family through imperial examinations, so they must learn the stereotypes. People like the Xu family only need to serve a good monarch. You know, after ten years of hardship, you will be taken care of by seniors who have the same experience as you. If you don’t pass the imperial examination, you will not be recognized by those who passed the imperial examination. Second, there will be no official career. A network of relationships like fellow villagers, classmates, and the same department. If you want to go on and do it well, the only thing you can rely on is the emperor.
Therefore, the people of the Luo family had to rely on the imperial examination if they wanted to make a comeback; the people of the Xu family had to rely on the emperor's appreciation if they wanted to get ahead. Because there is no way out, the things to learn are different.
This is another balancing technique used by the emperor for his imperial order!
She was speechless.
