Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 270

When they reached the bearers, everyone dispersed.Sister Zhen was silent just now, and when Xia Junyan came to Huang's residence, she just sat aside and quietly listened to Huang Niangzi and Xia Junyan talking.At this moment, seeing Xia Junyan leaving in a sedan chair, she quietly tugged on Huang Niangzi's sleeve.

Huang Niangzi was a little puzzled and said, "What's the matter?"

Sister Zhen said softly: "Just now I walked past Madam, Madam said... In a few days, shopkeeper Xia will be invited to give lectures at the women's school."

Huang Niangzi let out a cry of surprise, and some ladies not far away glanced in this direction without knowing it, Huang Niangzi patted her chest and exclaimed: "I was scared to death, I didn't know what kind of bug was walking in front of me just now. It's over." Saying that, he took sister Zhen and sat in the mule cart together, and when the curtains of the cart were drawn down and there were no other people around, he said, "Is what you said true?"

Sister Zhen nodded: "Daughter heard it with her own ears, and my wife and niece will come to the women's school to talk about it. I heard that my wife has planned several lectures, including shopkeeper Xia, and Mrs. Wu who is here today. Mother , You said... Mother? What are you thinking?"

Mrs. Huang was silent for a while, and when she heard her daughter calling her, she came back to her senses, and said abruptly: "You must be sick on the day when Shopkeeper Xia came to school, whether you have a stomachache or a cold, in short, you must not go !"

"Why?" Zhenjie was a little confused.

Seeing her innocent appearance, Mrs. Huang was very anxious, and hurriedly said: "My son, the most unlucky thing in this world is that the gods fight, and the kid suffers. It is common sense that Mrs. Chen invited Mrs. Wu, but it is common sense to invite Mrs. Xia." The shopkeeper didn’t invite her niece and daughter here, so there’s some talk here. Shopkeeper Xia is indeed able to read and write, but no matter how capable she is, can she be as capable as the girls and aunts of the Chen family? You are my daughter, and I It can be regarded as some friendship with shopkeeper Xia. When Mrs. Chen makes shopkeeper Xia feel ashamed, will you sit down and help or not? If you help, you will inevitably offend the Chen family; if you don't help, then shopkeeper Xia will definitely do the same I hate you."

Sister Zhen said, "But what if shopkeeper Xia's knowledge is higher than that of Mrs. Chen?"

Huang Niangzi seemed to hear some joke: "Master Xia has a way of doing business, but it's just a businessman. That's a rare thing."

Sister Zhen lowered her head silently, none of the big shopkeepers in the town had many years of business experience, and couldn't compare to the shopkeeper Xia from the village.

Seeing that she stopped talking, Mrs. Huang thought she had listened, and felt relieved a lot.He also instructed: "Don't tell others about this matter. Remember to stay away from the Tao family in the academy and get closer to the ladies of the Chen family. Mother is someone who has experienced it. Do what mother tells you. There is no harm in you. Hey, my son, when will you be able to grow up?" Saying this, holding Zhenjie'er in her arms, she repeated it over and over again, but Zhenjie just listened quietly, not knowing what to do. a bit.

Xia Junyan got out of the sedan chair, and after paying the money, she rushed to the shop.Before entering the door, Changsheng came out from some corner and stopped her, "Sister Axia, you can't go back now!"

"What's wrong?"

Xia Junyan is very hot, in order to pretend to be X, she specially hired a sedan chair today, but on this midsummer day, the small sedan chair is like a steamer, without an air conditioner, and the bearer walks slowly, even Xiao Fenger No need to blow.Now she just wants to go back to the shop to take a rest and have a good bowl of iced mung bean soup chilled in well water.

Before Changsheng could speak, he heard a high-pitched female voice behind him: "What did I say, my eldest niece is definitely coming back!"
