Fish Leaping Farm Gate

Chapter 233
It was early winter, and the weather was already a bit cold, but Tianxing Temple was still full of incense and people came and went.

Du Xiaoyu supported Huang Xiaoying up the stairs one by one, Huang Xiaoying smiled and said, "I can walk by myself, what do you think of me?"

"Be careful, don't worry, I'm watching my mother, my sister came here, it's always right to be careful." When Zhao Shi and Du Huanghua were pregnant, which one was not so nervous, they all offered it up like a treasure.

Huang Xiaoying pursed her lips and smiled, "It's a pity that Sister Huang Hua went to the capital. I wanted to ask her for a few tricks to make clothes for the children."

"Don't worry about it. When the news is sent to the capital, I will definitely bring some clothes." Du Xiaoyu laughed.

"Why bother Sister Huang Hua, she has to get used to it when she first arrives in the capital. I heard that officials and wives often come and go, so I'm afraid they are very busy."

Du Huanghua probably won't get used to it, she is such a simple person, Du Xiaoyu thought to herself, but maybe there will be no other way, Bai Yushi is now an official in the capital, so she will inevitably have to socialize outside, if she wants to become a good housekeeper , Always think about things that you don't usually think about.

As he spoke, he came to the temple.

When a sage monk came up to receive him, Zhao Dongzhi went to talk to him about fulfilling his wish, and asked for some incense, Du Xiaoyu and Huang Xiaoying followed.

"You go inside to offer incense, Xiaoyu, you have to remember to ask for a lottery." Zhao Dongzhi went to add sesame oil money.

The two kowtowed, Huang Xiaoying watched Du Xiaoyu pick up the stick, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile, this cousin didn't believe in gods and ghosts, so she could be so devout.

"I don't know what kind of signature it is." Huang Xiaoying picked up the tossed signature, "Let's find someone who can solve it."

Looking at the content of the signature, it should be signed, Du Xiaoyu smiled slightly, and the person who released the signature asked, "Are you looking for marriage?"

"Yes." Huang Xiaoying helped answer.

When Du Xiaoyu heard the word "marriage", what appeared in his mind was Li Yuanqing's appearance. It turned out that he was the first consideration for marriage in the end...

I don't know if it's good or bad?

"Sign on the top, lovers will eventually get married."

Huang Xiaoying was overjoyed, but the signer said again, "Good things always take a long time..."

"Is there any solution?" Hearing that there would be twists and turns in Du Xiaoyu's good deeds, Huang Xiaoying became anxious again, and hurriedly asked if there was any way to solve the lottery.

Du Xiaoyu grabbed her and said in a low voice, "Don't pay attention to him, he must be trying to trick us into paying. Since it's a lottery, how can there be many twists and turns? Besides, even if there is, it will be fine in the end, he just It’s a lottery, how can you beat God’s will?”

Huang Xiaoying made sense, so she stopped asking.

A few more people lined up behind them, all holding signatures in their hands. The two of them had just walked a few steps when a person dressed as a maid came over and called Du Xiaoyu back, "Our old lady wants to see you, please Du Xiaoyu." The second girl is going."

The little girl is still young, but her facial features are already very prominent. She will definitely be a beauty when she grows up. Du Xiaoyu looked at her and asked strangely, "Your old lady?"

"We belong to the Lin family."

The Lin family...Du Xiaoyu was stunned, looked back, and happened to see Caiyu standing not far away, maybe she found her and told the old lady of the Lin family.

But it's such a coincidence that the Lin family also came to Tianxing Temple to offer incense?
"Miss Du Er." The little maid called again.

Huang Xiaoying said softly, "Is it Wen Yuan's grandmother?"

Since the old lady knew about this and sent someone to invite her, it would be no good if she didn't go, "Well, cousin, I'll go see you, be careful, don't go to crowded places..."

Huang Xiaoying interrupted her, "You really treat me like a child, I'm afraid my mother will come here too, you don't have to worry about me."

Du Xiaoyu went with the little girl, Caiyu smiled and said, "It's such a coincidence that Miss Du Er also came to offer incense. I saw it from a distance and thought it was a mistake."

"I came with my aunt and cousin."

Tianxing Temple is well-known far and wide. Even if the old lady originally lived in Nandong Village, she would still come here to offer incense. The money added to the incense oil every year is enough to win very good hospitality in the temple.

The old lady is resting in a large yard at the moment. This yard is usually used for some senior officials' family members to rest for a while. Today it happens to be empty, so the old lady can enjoy it.

"Miss Du Er is here." A maid announced at the door.

The old lady put down the teacup in her hand, and she did not expect to run into someone from the Du family. When Caiyu mentioned it, she was also very surprised. Today, she happened to listen to Master Deyuan's lecture, and when it came to chance After one incident, he met Du Xiaoyu in the end, and wanted to see what kind of person he was, who could make his grandson like him so much!
"please come in."

Du Xiaoyu walked in and saluted the old lady graciously. In fact, the old lady also came on the day Li Yuanqing left Du's house to go to the capital. Let's talk.

She didn't evade her eyes, she was calm, the old lady narrowed her eyes slightly, and she couldn't find any trace of shame or embarrassment on her face, she was very frank.

"Sit down, I'm also looking at Qiao, so I ask you to talk." She said lightly.

Du Xiaoyu sat down and smiled, "I didn't know the old lady would come here to offer incense."

"Our Lin family has always been here." The old lady took a sip of tea, "I wanted to invite your family to attend the church before, but Yuanqing didn't send the post. It can be seen that he is protecting him, and he is afraid that he will be with me. What aggrieved."

It was to test her, Du Xiaoyu said, "We don't know about it, it was a waste of the old lady's kindness."

But Li Yuanqing was not mentioned. The old lady looked at her, "Although this child Yuanqing handles official duties properly, he has the same temperament as his mother. Some things are too hasty, and if you don't think carefully, you will have to deal with them in the future." regrettable."

"The old lady is right, you have to think about it." Du Xiaoyu nodded.

The old lady was taken aback for a moment, she knew exactly what she was saying, but she didn't refute it, and even seemed to agree, she couldn't help but looked at her carefully again, and couldn't figure out what she was thinking for a while.

"Bring the snacks to Second Miss Du to taste." She ordered the maid below.

Du Xiaoyu didn't refuse, thanked him, took it and ate it.

"How does it taste?" The old lady looked at her, she was eating with a smile on her face, and she was very devoted.

"Very good. Compared with this one, the Wu Ren Tang in the county is a little greasy." Du Xiaoyu turned his head and thought for a while, "This dessert is probably because the oil is not used, it should be put in something else. .”

The old lady raised her eyebrows, pretending to understand, or really knowing, and asked, "Then what do you think is put in it?"

"Milk." She laughed.

The old lady was surprised that this kind of dim sum was her favorite, and only masters in the capital could make it. She specially asked someone to learn it, but Du Xiaoyu could guess it.

"You do understand that."

"I also read it in the book, saying that milk is very good. If it is used frequently, it will be of great benefit to the body." Du Xiaoyu smiled.

The old lady felt that she might have misjudged her eyes. This peasant girl is quite knowledgeable and can read books, so she can read and write, but her appearance is also considered outstanding. Under the eyes of so many people in the room, there is nothing wrong with her. Lu was timid, and his eyes never looked around. This kind of demeanor is not inferior to Miss Feng Si's at all.

The two talked for a while, and Du Xiaoyu left.

When I came to the gate of the temple, I saw Huang Xiaoying and Zhao Dongzhi waiting there. Seeing her coming, Zhao Dongzhi rushed up and asked, "What did the people from the Lin family ask you to do? Did they make things difficult for you?"

"No, just talking casually."

"How could it be?" Zhao Dongzhi didn't believe it. "Their family has never been used to us. Look at the aunt of the Lin family last time. What did you say? She slandered you like this. Where can the old lady be better now? To bully You, you tell me, my aunt will reason with you!"

"No, the old lady is not the same as the aunt of the Lin family." After talking to the old lady of the Lin family this time, Du Xiaoyu still felt a little better about her. Being able to keep calm and talk to her like that, it's not hard to see why he can take charge of the entire Lin family.

The old lady can bear it, maybe she will show her willful side in front of her family, but in fact, she should be a very rational person.

Huang Xiaoying said with a smile at this time, "Mother, don't worry about it. After all, it's Wen Yuan's grandmother. How can you treat Xiao Yu? We're also on the scent, so let's go back, or it will be dark when we get home."

"That's right, it's cold at night, it's not okay to be frozen." Zhao Dongzhi hurriedly supported Huang Xiaoying to walk down the mountain.

The old lady was also planning to go back to the house at this time. Mrs. Lin hurried in and wiped the sweat from her brow, "Mother, don't tell me when you come to offer incense."

"Aren't you still here?" the old lady said casually.

Mrs. Lin was a little anxious. The old lady was obviously dissatisfied with her recently, and even Shangxiang didn't take her with her. Could it be that she was really in a hurry to drive her back to Chen's house?
"Miss Ruan, I tried it." She smiled and leaned over, "I didn't say no, but I don't know what big brother means..."

The old lady said, "What's the rush? It's not like you don't know your elder brother's temperament. How can it be so easy? You have to see him a few more times."

Then she won't have to go back to Chen's house for the time being, and Lin's happy again, but she heard the old lady say, "Then you go and find out what the second daughter of the Du family is like."

Lin's eyes widened, "Hey, mother, why would you ask her? She is just a farmer, so what else can she do? She just knows how to raise rabbits, oh, yes, and also grows some herbs. What do you know? ?”

"Raise rabbits, grow herbs?" The old lady snorted, "It's easy to say, let you do it, will you?"

"This, this..." Lin choked suddenly, and saw a maid laughing, her face turned red with anger, "Mother, you actually said that to me!"

"Inquire carefully." The old lady waved her hand and went out.

Lin didn't know what she was up to, so she could only respond and stomped her feet to follow.

Thank you sister May for the reward~~~~~
