Kido

Chapter 12

They really don't know.So after receiving Shen Mai from Baihua Mountain, the whole journey was full of sightseeing.When encountering good scenery, new and interesting people or things that have never been seen before, the family must stop the car and appreciate and comment with great interest.

If you go to famous mountains and ancient temples, you will definitely stay for a long time.Shen Mai believes that "the master hides in the deep mountains", while Xie Yu is obsessed with the exquisite Buddha statues, pagodas, and Buddhist halls. They are really unparalleled works of art, so beautiful!

Zhang Yu carried Yaya on his shoulders, held Axie in his hand, kept his eyes on Achen and Achi, and followed his wife from place to place without complaint.

Gradually it left Hebei and entered Henan.Zhang Yu was originally in charge of the Henan Command and Envoy Division, and the Henan Capital Division was located in Kaifeng, so he was stopped when he passed by Kaifeng. "Zhang Dudu will definitely give me a thin noodle, and drink a glass of water and wine as a reward." He invited one to the other, and stayed for half a month without knowing it.

"Walking around like this is really fun." Yaya sat cross-legged on the carriage, and expressed her opinion in a childlike voice, "But I'm a little tired. Mother, can you stop and rest for a few months before leaving?" Sometimes, I want to go out to play; but if I play all day, I will be tired.

"Yes." Xie Yu smiled and Mimi agreed, "Not far away, we will be in Taikang. We will rest when we get to Taikang, and we will start after spring." The weather is getting colder, so we should hibernate.

"Why Taikang?" Ah Xie asked in a daze while leaning on Xie Yu's body for a nap.

"There is a Shousheng Temple in Taikang, and my grandfather has an old friend in Shousheng Temple, and Pan Heng will be indispensable for a while." Seeing that Ah Xie was sleepy, Xie Yu hugged him and patted him gently, "My grandfather is in Taikang. There are houses, let's stop and go after winter."

"...A Ze and A Cheng's aunts live in Taikang, and your second aunt's carriage is still with us..." When we arrived in Taikang, even though my husband and wife didn't have to show up, they still had to send someone to deliver Han's carriage to Xie's residence. Only then.

A Ze and A Cheng refer to the two sons of Yue Ting, the second son of Yue Pei.Yue Ting married his wife, the Han family, and the Han family had a cousin who married into the Xie family in Taikang.

"Oh, that's right." Ah Xie nodded her head and fell asleep.

It was late autumn when Zhang Yu's family entered Taikang.The carriage stopped in front of a garden, Zhang Xi hugged Ah Xie, Xie Yu hugged Yaya, Shen Mai took Shen Chen and Yue Chi out of the carriage.

"Rabbit garden?" Ah Xie looked at the two large characters on the gate, wondering, is this a place to raise rabbits?He has seen many gardens, he can recognize the word "garden" well, and he also knows the word "rabbit", and he raised little white rabbits with Yaya.

Shen Mai laughed loudly, "My dear grandson, this is called Yiyuan!" This kid always knows half of the characters, which is really funny.

Everyone laughed, Ah Jie scratched his head, and muttered, "Don't blame me, it looks too much like a rabbit." The family smiled and entered the garden.

Yiyuan is really a good place to have a leisurely time.A clear stream runs through the entire garden, with pine and plum trees planted on both sides, or exquisite rockery piled high and low with Taihu Lake stones.The house is in the woods, and it is also made of wood, which looks simple and lovely.

"How is this garden?" Shen Mai was proud.After he killed Xu Lang, before the emperor summoned him for interrogation, he quickly ordered people to set up properties and gardens in Taikang, Huzhou, Quanzhou, Xijing and other places.Planning to go back to the countryside if there is nothing to do; if there is something to do, hum, I will continue to be a bandit!Or go as a pirate, and live in the city from time to time!
Yiyuan is one of his properties.

"Daddy is Daddy, you have vision!" Xie Yu laughed and praised Mimi, and Zhang Yu followed suit.Shen Mai couldn't be more complacent, my family Ah Yu praised me, and I ate half a bowl of rice extra in the evening.

Since then, Zhang Yu's family has temporarily settled down in Taikang.Shen Mai went to Shousheng Temple to visit old friends, and often competed with the great monk in the temple, which was a lot of fun.Wuji and Jieyu took their four children to eat, drink and have fun at home, talking, laughing and playing, very happy.

It is necessary to live in Taikang for a few months, of course, it is necessary to visit the local county magistrate and talk about it.The magistrate of Yu County was overjoyed after receiving the name post. Although he was a civil official and Zhang Yu was a military officer, civil and military officials had different paths, Zhang Yu would have nothing to do with him even if he became the governor of the five armies again.But being a county magistrate in Kaifeng Prefecture, how lucky I am to be able to meet noble families from the capital.Immediately accepted the name sticker, solemnly wrote a reply, and made a special trip to visit the next day.

Shen Mai took the eldest son Shen Chen and the second son Yuechi to fight with the great monk, Zhang Yu took the third son Zhang Xi to entertain the magistrate of Yu County, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Han's carriage had already been sent to Xie's mansion.The Fourth Master of the Xie Mansion personally wrote a reply, his words were very polite, and he made a special trip to order a table from Fuguiju, the best restaurant in Taikang, and deliver it to Yiyuan.

The Xie family is busy.Grandpa Xie's [-]th birthday was full of guests and friends, it was full of wine and drama, and it was very lively.The second master who worked in Nanjing, and the third master who was the county magistrate in Lingxian County also came back, coming and going to welcome and see old relatives, relatives and friends, busy around.

Xie Erye looked honest and honest, and he was well-dressed.Because it was a big day, he wore a Shu brocade gown with gold lettering and dark pattern, and a black Hunan embroidered Erlong Xizhu belt around his waist.When you meet people, you will salute respectfully and politely to express your gratitude. You don't talk much, but you don't reveal anything.

Xie Sanye is quite different.He has inherited Mrs. Xie's good looks, he is tall and handsome, and his clothes are exquisite and exquisite. The beautiful jade set on the brim of his hat alone is worth a lot.When it comes to conversation, he is much more free and easy than Xie Erye.

Needless to say, the second wife and the third wife were busy entertaining the female guests.The third wife was dressed resplendently, and even in her busy schedule, she secretly talked to the second wife, "This person comes and goes, and the water table has been set up for three days! How much does she have to earn?" The fourth wife is in charge of the house, so The birthday banquet to thank the old man was also organized by the fourth wife.

Ordinarily, the second wife and the third wife are sister-in-laws, and they should share some of the family affairs.Helplessly, the old lady Xie is simple and straightforward, she doesn't like the concubine's daughter-in-law to be the concubine's daughter-in-law, and she will not pretend at all.The third wife briefly mentioned the "housekeeper" and "sharing", and the old lady Xie directly reprimanded, "It's easy to think of a housekeeper, so go back to the post with the third child!" Take care of your own home.

I hated the third wife so much, I didn't know how many times I scolded Mrs. Xie, scolding Mrs. Xie for blocking her way of making money.Not to mention the Xie family's daily household, just thank the old lady for the birthday gifts and guests, how many subtleties are there in the drinks, vegetables, fruits and other things these days, and how much oil is there to fish for?

"Could it be that the Xie family belongs to her alone? We can only watch! The concubine's daughter-in-law is really miserable, unspeakably miserable, and the mother-in-law is too partial!" Seeing that the second wife ignored her lightly, the third wife was disappointed and returned home at night. When I was in the room, I dragged the third master to complain.The third wife had to find a place to pour out her bitterness, but the second wife refused to listen, so she had to tell her husband.

The third master threw her away and shouted sharply, "Shut up!" He doesn't love him, but he never treats him harshly. Since his snacks and clothes are all on the top, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

"Don't look at your mother's good nature and dare to be disobedient and unfilial!" The third master's eyes were fierce, "If this is the case, I will send you back to the Miao family with a divorce letter!" The little county magistrate, in the future, he will have to rely on his father, aunt, mother and brother for many things, so how can he cause trouble for no reason.

Men are the most realistic animals.

The third wife was scolded by her husband, she was not convinced.When she wanted to quarrel with him, she felt that she lacked confidence: If the third master told the truth, who would turn towards him from the top to the bottom of the Xie family?The third wife is a practical person, she hides her hatred, washes up and goes to sleep.

This night, the third master of the Xie family was furious in the room, and the second master of the Xie family was in the study of the old master Xie. The father and son had a long talk by candlelight.Xie Erye choked up as he spoke, "Although he is a distant branch, he is still a county king. I really don't want to provoke him..." But he couldn't let go of his daughter either.

"Side concubine?" Old Master Xie sneered, he was nothing more than a vassal prince, and he dared to set his mind on Xie's daughter.The vassal kings are lawless, and there are many things in the vassal land that seize people's land and rob people's women. Anyway, as long as they don't rebel, the court will not take them seriously.Civilian girls are just robbed, and official girls are at your disposal?
"...My son is too timid to offend anyone, so I hurriedly sent Hua'er back to the mansion, and begged you to protect me..." Second Master Xie was very ashamed, but there was nothing he could do.He knows that his aunt loves to be pure, but his wife and children are all at ease.

"Stay here." The old lady Xie sighed, "Although your mother is not warm-hearted, she has a very good heart, so don't worry." Although the old lady Xie doesn't like concubine sons and concubine daughters, she never abuses her, and she won't allow others to abuse her, " After all, it’s my cousin’s flesh and blood.”

After Mrs. Xie's birthday banquet, Mr. Xie returned to Nanjing. He ordered his second wife and son to take care of him, and his daughter, Hua Nian, to stay and "do my filial piety at the knees of the old lady."

The third master of the Xie family was in an official position, so it was not easy to ask for leave, and he left soon.The same is true for him, ordering the third wife to stay in Xie's mansion with their children to "perform filial piety".How happy it is to go back to Renshang without his wife to control him.

After the birthday banquet, Xie's mansion returned to calm.

Xie Liunian is almost one year old, he will stumble and walk a few steps, and he will call "Father, Mother, Grandfather, Grandmother". Of course, they are all slightly vague and usually not very clear.

The weather was getting colder, Fourth Master Xie went out less and less, and in his free time he either practiced calligraphy and reading with Old Master Xie, or raised his children.When Xie Yannian and Xie Tangnian were in school, he taught Xie Liunian.

"Xiao Qi, Daddy will read you a story about life." The father and son sat on the warm kang, Fourth Master Xie read a passage from a romantic novel with a clear voice, Xie Liunian listened with wide eyes, very focused.

Xie Liu was a very vulgar person in his previous life. All he could think about was "making money, making money" all day long.Only by earning money can you take root in the imperial capital, end your career as a North drifter, and live a comfortable life with food, fish and no car.

I never knew that it was possible to be like fourth master Xie, who has good things but can't do anything, and can be a rich and idle person briskly and freely.Xie Liunian heard "You look at me, it's on the back of a bull...", Xia recalled the Wei and Jin demeanor of the children in Wuyi Lane back then, and was very fascinated.

This kind of life is much more interesting than "making money, making money" all day long.Back then, according to my wishes, I wanted to study literature or history, and I studied marketing purely for my livelihood!Accidentally time travel, can I finally learn and enjoy the long-awaited classical culture?Xie Liunian's eyes were bright, and his mouth was drooling.

"Ah Li, wipe Xiao Qi clean." Fourth Master Xie raised his head and saw her drooling again, and frowned slightly.He loves cleanliness by nature, and he really can't see the appearance of his daughter carved in powder and jade.

He Li came over in response, holding a snow-white western cloth towel in his hand.How could Xie Liunian give her this chance? With a wicked smile, he threw himself into Fourth Master Xie's arms and rubbed his fill.Think I'm dirty?Let you hate!

Fourth Master Xie did not escape his youngest daughter's surprise attack, and wanted to hit him bitterly, "Xiao Qi, come here!" Xie Liunian first gave him a big smile, then pouted his little butt at him, hit him.

Although the room is warm, children still wear a lot of clothes.Xie Liunian was wearing a padded jacket and trousers made by He Li himself, with white and blue silk tops, very cute.Fourth Master Xie slapped her little butt twice, "Do you still dare?" No matter how naughty she was, he would still hit her.
