Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 365 The two return to Beijing (3)
When Mrs. Li had finished speaking, Lu Haojie's face was the same, without a trace of impatience, and he agreed with a smile: "I have already remembered all the words my aunt said, so don't worry, my aunt." Well, I will definitely take good care of myself, and I will often write back."

Mrs. Li also realized that she was too long-winded, so she smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "You just need to remember, you can live well outside, and my aunt can also relax in her heart!"

He asked Hehua to bring the small wooden box she had prepared and handed it to Lu Haojie. Lu Haojie opened it and looked at it, and there was a folded bank note inside.

Lu Haojie flipped through it roughly, and found that they were all 100 taels of bills, and there were about ten of them, and it was estimated that there should be 1000 taels of silver.

Seeing these banknotes, Lu Haojie felt a sudden rush of heat in his heart, his eyes were a little sour, and the emotion was beyond words, he quickly calmed down his emotions, and refused: "Auntie, I don't want this. Put it away yourself, there are still plenty of places for my younger brothers and sisters to spend money, and I am not short of money now. When I take office, I can also receive a salary, and after I pass the exam this time and go back, my uncle and aunt, I also returned most of the family property that I had dominated before."

After hearing these words, Mrs. Li didn't take it seriously, and said: "You are young, what do you not understand? If you go out, you must bring more money with you to be at ease. Auntie doesn't give much, so you can just live." Keep it. Aunt still said the same thing, you have to take care of yourself when you are outside alone. When you first arrive in a strange place, although you are going to be an official, it is inevitable that some things will not go smoothly. Aunt I don’t know anything, but I still know the reason, no matter where you are, it’s always more convenient to do things with more money in hand.”

Hearing Li Shi's heart-warming words, Lu Haojie didn't want to hide them anymore, so he said the words out of his heart: "Auntie, when my parents were alive, our family was considered a scholarly family. The aristocratic family, the family conditions are also good, not to mention a lot of property, but at least it is more than rich. There are more than [-] shops in the family alone. I also took back most of it. Before I came this time, I had sold all those shops, and my mother’s dowry Zhuangzi before. I also dealt with it at one time. Therefore, I still have enough money in my hand Auntie, don't worry about me."

After listening to his confession, Mrs. Li thought for a while and said, "Well, since you said that you are not short of money, then Auntie will not force you. When you are short of money, you can talk to Auntie again." My son said, our family has a few promising farms, a profitable shop, and so many fields, your aunt and uncle can't spend much money at home, so you can feel free to open your mouth. Many aunts My son may not have it, but I will try my best to make it up for you. My aunt still says the same thing, your uncle and aunt treat you as their own son, so don't be polite to your aunt if you have anything to do in the future. "

Lu Haojie nodded in response, and said a few words of concern to Mrs. Li: "Auntie, you should take good care of yourself on weekdays, don't be too sad, your younger brothers and sisters are already grown up, so don't worry about it." I always worry about them. Brother Xuewen and I are already grown up, if something happens, we will take care of it. You can just eat and drink and enjoy yourself!"

After listening to his words, Mrs. Li knew that the child was coaxing him, but she was still very happy in her heart. Therefore, she smiled more willfully and cheerfully on her face, nodded repeatedly, saying that she would wait to enjoy the blessing of her son-in-law in the future up.

Lu Haojie talked with Li Shi for a while, and saw that she was gradually getting tired, so he resigned and left.

At this time, in Widow Zheng's room, the mother and son were already sitting, saying a lot of thoughtful words, and Widow Zheng who should be instructed had already given instructions.

Widow Zheng is different from the Li family. She lived in the capital before and was born in an official family, so she has free opinions on those official affairs. Therefore, she also told Chen Xuewen some simple things about being an official. way.

In fact, the general idea is to hope that Chen Xuewen will stick to his duty when he first enters the officialdom, and don't pay attention to which faction he is drawn into. Furthermore, he is asked to be more cautious as an official and remember to restrain himself.

Facing his mother's earnest instructions, Chen Xuewen nodded and responded one by one, and comforted his mother by the way, and the mother and son finished talking about the business.

Seeing Mama Hu who had been serving her mother, Chen Xuewen rolled her eyes a few times, then made a random excuse and sent her away: "Mama Hu, I often hear my mother say that you always make ' Pea yellow' and 'kidney bean cake' are the most delicious. I'm leaving now, and I haven't had a chance to try it yet."

When Chen Xuewen said this, he smiled quite gently. Mother Hu didn't see what he was thinking, so she smiled and replied: "Since the young master wants to eat, mother, I will make it for you."

After hearing this, Chen Xuewen didn't refuse, but just said with a smile: "That's hard work, mom. I just didn't eat much for breakfast, so I'm really hungry."

After hearing what he said, Mrs. Hu became more active, and she immediately resigned and went to the kitchen to make these two pastries by herself.

Others may not be able to see the intention of his actions, but as his mother, Widow Zheng, how can she not see it.

So, after Chen Xuewen successfully sent Hu's mother away, Widow Zheng said: "Just say what you want, mother has never heard of it, what kind of 'pea yellow' do you like to eat."

Chen Xuewen also corrected his complexion at this time, and said: "Son knows that he can't hide anything from his mother. The son did this because he just wanted to have a good talk with his mother about the placement of Hu's mother and daughter. If Hu's mother is here , our mother and son must not talk about this matter in front of her."

For a while, Widow Zheng couldn't understand Chen Xuewen's intentions. It stands to reason that he shouldn't be so concerned about Hu's mother's affairs, so she asked with a puzzled look: "Why do you suddenly want to talk to your mother about Hu? What about mother and daughter?"

Hearing his mother's question, Chen Xuewen didn't hide anything, and replied: "I went to Chen's house earlier, and by chance, I ran into Mama Hu, and I knew that she was reduced to a rough envoy by that woman. At that time, the son thought that Mama Hu was the nurse mother of the mother, and she should have feelings for the mother, so he took the initiative to ask their mother and daughter from the Chen Mansion and brought them back to the mother! After returning, the son didn't bother about mother Hu's mother and daughter anymore, thinking that their mother would find a way to arrange them. However, these days, I have gradually seen that Mother Hu's thoughts are coming, and the son looks at her It seems that they always have a bad attitude towards the people of the Lin family! Moreover, my son also heard that Mama Hu had some conflicts with Sister Xiaoqiao a few days ago."
