Across the Market

Chapter 67

However, women always like to be praised by others, and Wei Sanniang is no exception. Hearing Shen Yulou say this, she smiled and said: "All of you have grown up like this, and my aunt is getting old. It's okay." She greeted Shen Yulou and sat down, then told the eldest son, "Just now your second sister said that we should go to Xinghua Village to pick up your grandma together. Mother thinks about it, Brother Lu, you go again Hire a carriage."

Zhu Lu hurriedly obeyed and went to do things. Here, Zhu Fu walked up to Wei Sanniang, smiled and held her arm and said, "Mother, why are you old? You are not yet 40 years old, so you are already old. My mother is the youngest and most beautiful, when I went to the shop to buy cloth yesterday, the proprietress praised my mother."

Sister Nuan also ran over and rubbed her mother's arms hard, and said with a smile: "Second sister is right, mother is the most beautiful." She raised her head and thought for a while, then said, "Mother is the most beautiful, and elder sister is the second most beautiful. The second sister is the third most beautiful, and I am the youngest, so I am the fourth most beautiful."

Zhu Fu rubbed Sister Nuan'er's face vigorously with his small hands, and fiercely said to her with a straight face: "So I am ranked third in Sister Nuan's heart? Okay, I won't play with you again." After finishing speaking, he deliberately said Turning his head to one side, he pretended to be angry and puffed out his mouth.

Sister Nuan was stunned, thinking that the second sister was really angry, so she hurried over to coax her.

Zhu Fu ignored her, so she played tricks, rubbed the chubby body on Zhu Fu's body vigorously, and ran after Zhu Fu with all her strength.The yard is very small, and there is not much space for a few people to sit. The two sisters would always bump into people when they quarreled, and the ground was wet and slippery. Zhu Fu slipped and fell on Shen Yulou.

Shen Yulou was originally smiling as he watched the two sisters play. Sister Nuan looked just like Yuzhu when she was a child. However, he was very quiet, and he would never run around and let his sister chase him like a little boy.Suddenly seeing the little boy's body tilted, as if he was about to fall, he instinctively reached out to catch it, and grabbed Zhu Fu's body firmly with one hand.

Zhu Fu suddenly threw himself into the arms of a man with a faint fragrance of plum blossoms. She raised her face in fright. She was too close, and she could feel his warm breath gently exhaled, as well as those slightly smiling eyes. Eye.As soon as her head got hot, her face burned, and she quickly stood up rubbing her feet.

Sister Nuan finally caught her sister, hugged her tightly, and said: "Second sister, take me to play, I like the second sister the most, and the second sister is the most beautiful."

Zhu Fu's skin was originally very fair, but now his face was slightly red, reflecting the sunlight, he was indeed very beautiful.

Shen Yulou looked at Zhu Fu, then at Zhu Xi, and said with a smile, "Sister Xi is still as chaste and virtuous as before, but Sister Fu seems to be a different person after three years of not seeing each other. It used to be a lot more active.”

Wei Sanniang said: "That's right, this girl will be fourteen years old after the end of the year, she is a big child, she is no longer the crying slug she was when she was a child."

Shen Yulou smiled slightly and nodded, then raised her eyes to look at Zhu Fu, seeing that she was only concentrating on tying a square cloth scarf for Sister Nuan and didn't look at herself, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.Thinking about it, I should talk to her a few words, so I asked: "I remember when I left, sister Fu was learning to read and write with me, and she promised me that she would study and read well at home. How are you doing now?" ?”

Suddenly, Zhu Fu's head became big with a "buzz", she re-tied the square cloth scarf for Sister Nuan, Fang turned his head and looked at Shen Yulou with a smile and said, "It's all right."

Shen Yulou frowned slightly, always feeling that Xiaobudian is not the same as before when he comes back this time.

Outside, Zhu Da and Zhu Lu came in together, and Zhu Lu walked up to Wei Sanniang and said, "Mother, I hired a carriage again, and I went to the other side of the river to call Dad back, seeing that it's getting late , let's go."

Zhu Xi had been standing pretty at the door of the kitchen. He was slightly dazed at first, but after hearing what his brother said, he returned to God and said, "I just steamed the steamed buns. Since my parents are going too, we don't have to eat at home. I'll wrap the steamed buns. Let's eat on the way."

When Shen Yulou was studying at Jinling Academy, there were riding and archery classes in the academy. He was excellent in more than ten subjects, and naturally this riding and archery class was no exception.

Those who can study in Jinling Academy are not the sons and daughters of the scholarly family, or the rich and wealthy. What's more, the sons of the aristocratic families in the capital will travel to the south to study.Therefore, most of the students in the academy have their own horses, and Shen Yulou naturally has no spare money to buy a horse. However, the academy gave Shen Yulou a horse, which is the one Shen Yulou rode back now.

The Zhu family hired two carriages, Zhu Da and his eldest son Zhu Lu each drove one, Zhu Fu took the two younger ones in one, Wei Sanniang and the eldest daughter rode in one, and Shen Yulou accompanied the two on horseback. among the carriages.

This Songyang County belongs to Huzhou. The small county town is far inferior to the provincial capital. Donkey carts are more common. If anyone can hire a carriage when they go out to do errands, they must have some spare money at home, let alone be able to buy it. Get up.Therefore, Shen Yulou sat on a tall horse, the horse was beautiful, and the son was born with Zhilan Yushu's gentleness and elegance, which aroused the eyes of passers-by.

The door of the Lin family next door opened, and a muscular young man came out from the Lin Kee pork shop. The young man was the only son of the Lin family, Lin Tiezhu.

Seeing Zhu Lu, Lin Tiezhu walked over in a few strides, looked at the carriage curiously, called Zhu Lu big brother, and asked him, "Where are you going? You even hired two carriages..." He brown bear The same strong body turned around the carriage, but saw a delicate face protruding from behind the side curtain of the carriage.

He froze all of a sudden, stretched out his hands to grab his head, and began to speak awkwardly.

"Sister Fu, where are you going?" Lin Tiezhu only glanced at Zhu Fu, then lowered his head, and then stood by the side blankly, looking at Zhu Fu with thick black eyebrows.

Zhu Fu lifted the curtain, lay on the side coquettishly, and replied with a smile: "My parents will take us to Xinghua Village to pick up my grandma and my second uncle's family to live in the city. We have already rented a house across the river. A yard, from now on my grandma and my second uncle's family will live here and will not go back."

Lin Tiezhu laughed straight away, he was not as active as when he was talking to Zhu Lu just now, his two rough hands were tightly grasping the corners of the coarse cloth, obviously a little cramped.

Aunt Lin's voice calling for her son came from the courtyard of Lin's family. Lin Tiezhu saw his mother yelling at him again, and she was yelling so loudly that the boss was not happy, and rushed into his house as soon as he turned around. The boy's voice was even louder. some.
