The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 150 The Temperament Like a Wooden Fish (2)
If it was in modern times, it would be fine even if the table was full of big men Zhao Jing, but it is really inconvenient in ancient times, the saying that men and women sit at different seats at seven years old is not casual, let alone her and Lord Hou?It's outrageous to eat at the same table without any relatives.

Seeing Zhao Jing getting up to leave, Xu Si'an frowned slightly, and ordered to go down: "You go and get the small plate and get a few other things, and put them on the small table of the big kang next time. The old lady and I used breakfast in there. meal."

He didn't want Zhao Jing to leave, and he didn't want to disappoint Mrs. Xu. The old lady must be the favorite when he dined with the two of them.

Mrs. Xu smiled when she heard this, and said, "Just do as Master Hou ordered. Mr. Zhao will stay here and have breakfast with the others. We will go to school together later, so we can drop by!"

After Zhao Jing had breakfast, seeing that it was getting late, she got up and went to Jinhui Pavilion, Xu Xian and Qi Jiahui followed, Qi Jiabao had to go to school because of the quarrel, so Xu Si'an allowed him to go to Zhao Jing's first While listening to the lectures for a few days, when he is a little older, he will start to give lectures in a serious way, and start to walk on the road of imperial examinations.

Sun Yu'e didn't want to go at first, but thinking that Xu Si'an was still in the room, she would naturally know if she didn't go.What's more, she didn't go because she was on sick leave before, but now that her "illness" has recovered, she had no choice but to follow the crowd to go.

Xu Si'an had breakfast, stayed and drank a cup of hot tea before leaving.The old lady's place was very lively before, but since Zhao Jing came, the children were busy going to school, and it was much quieter than before.Seeing Mrs. Xu sighing towards the door, Mama Zhang smiled and went up to serve her tea.

"Old lady, did you see that? The old slave didn't lie to you, did he? Master Hou probably has thoughts in his heart, but he has a temperament like a wooden fish. What should we do?"

Xu Si'an's temperament is calm at best, but Muyu's mind is not clear at worst. Such a good girl is right in front of him, so he just has this unhurried temper.
"It looks like there is a little shadow, but it doesn't look like it. I just saw it. He didn't even look at Miss Jing, but even after he glanced at it, he didn't see why."

Zhang's mother was also anxious when she heard this. In front of so many people, how could Hou Ye dare to look at Zhao Jing unscrupulously, but according to her own inference, she still concluded that Hou Ye liked Zhao Jing, otherwise Yesterday's sentence: "Mother Zhang, you did a good job!" was too thoughtless.

"If the old lady doesn't believe it, then take it easy for a few more days. Anyway, Miss Jing is working as a lady in our Hou's mansion, and she doesn't have to leave in a day or two. If Master Hou is really interested in her, it is possible that she can still do it." Can you hide from your piercing eyes?"

After hearing this, the old lady was a little happier, and after thinking about it, she said: "What you said is also reasonable. Although Hou Ye is tall and powerful, he is thin-skinned. He doesn't even have the paintings his father gave him." I brought it as a gift, and this is the first time he has encountered this, otherwise I will ask him when the time comes, and I will understand."

Zhao Jing lived in the Hou Mansion until the end of the month, and the first day of March was her rest day, and because the third day of March was the Girl's Day, and it happened to be a spring outing, the old lady specially explained to Zhao Jing that she would take the children to live in Zhuangzi. For two days, she was allowed to rest from the first day to the fifth day.

Zhao Jing was very happy, her days in the Hou Mansion were not short, and Zhao Yong came to see her once, and she actually felt a little homesick.The old lady asked Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhang to pack her luggage, and then asked Zhao Jing, "If Mr. Zhao has nothing to do at home, why don't you come with us to Zhuangzi for a few days? This season is the most comfortable in Zhuangzi. It happened to let you know my old sister, Mama Sun."

Zhao Jing raised her head and glanced at Zhang's mother. She was preparing her luggage for the old lady. She was holding an autumn-colored gourd double blessing beanie in her hand. She was going to ask the old lady something. Jing looked at each other and lowered her head.

It seems... Mama Zhang still didn't tell the old lady the truth about what happened in Puzhao Temple before.Zhao Jing sighed, and heard Zhang's mother ask the old lady: "This dress was made by the old lady at the end of the year, and I have never worn it. I saw Han's mother put it in the cage, thinking that the weather has not yet warmed up. If you don’t need it, just take it out.”

The old lady took a look and said with a smile: "I asked Mama Han to put it in. I can't wear this color now, so I just took it to Mama Sun's daughters-in-law. I also packed a whole box." , you go and help me take a look."

The old lady wanted to give something to someone. Zhang's mother never stopped her, but this time she refused to give in. She frowned and said, "Since the old lady said that this color can't be worn, it's the same if you change the color at the beginning. Such a set of clothes costs more than ten taels of silver, the old lady doesn't feel bad, but the old slave feels bad when she sees it, and sends them out one by one."

The old lady is a careless person. During the four seasons and festivals, as long as the subordinates say a few words, she will happily make new clothes. Sun Yu'e is naturally indispensable at this time, but the old lady is old after all. , There are so many clothes, she has finished wearing them, and a set of clothes is backlogged.When Mama Han said something inappropriate when tidying up, it would all be in someone else's pocket.

Mother Zhang even suspected that when they made these clothes with the old lady, they didn't make them according to the size of the old lady at all, otherwise why didn't they bring back the new clothes they brought back, as if they were tailor-made for them Woolen cloth?
