Kuai Chuan Teaches You To Be a Man

Yu Xia had just met the officials responsible for the construction of the Hou Mansion. She discussed with Qiao Yue and settled a lot of things. From the overall structure to the details, she wrote many pages on white paper. Afraid that people would not understand it, Qiao Yue also drew a sketch with charcoal. Originally, this kind of matter should be negotiated by Qiao Yue, but Yu Xia was worried about the communication problem, and afraid that he would not be patient enough to explain them one by one, so he took the initiative to take over the job and slammed Qiao Yue into the field.

Up to this dynasty, the craftsmen's skills are actually quite high. They have built many amazing palaces and gardens. Many things Yu Xia said were not understandable at first, but after she explained it in detail, she understood.

Many things actually took shape in ancient times, but it took a long time to develop and perfect them before they became convenient later.

She talked with the person for more than an hour, only drank two sips of tea in the middle, and explained the part involved at this stage. People perform.

Yu Xia politely took two steps, and the man handed over his hands several times and said that Mrs. Hou should stay! Yu Xia stood under the eaves for a while, and watched the adults in official uniforms walk away. Just as she was about to ask what snacks she prepared for today, she would send two plates, when Wang Zhenniang brought Qiao Gu, who was carrying a tray in her hand. Put the big belly soup cup, and a small bowl is attached.

Seeing her mother-in-law coming, Yu Xia hurriedly said hello.

Wang Zhenniang stretched out her hand to help her, she felt her hand a little cold as soon as she touched Yu Xia, and asked, "It's said that it's still cold today, and my mother came out with a hand stove, why did she forget?"

"I haven't paid attention to it for so many years, and I'm not used to it at first. If you don't talk about it, I think you've been worrying about the establishment of the mansion recently. You've had many interviews with those adults. Are you finished talking? I'll tell you. You don't have to be so careful, it's just like messing around with those houses in the county, why don't you live there?"

Wang Zhenniang and Yu Xia went into the hall, sat next to her, beckoned Qiao Gu to put down the soup cup, opened the lid and wanted to serve her a bowl, Yu Xia smelled the strong aroma: "Is it chicken soup? Mother treats me so well. , this is my favorite drink."

Seeing her like this, Wang Zhenniang was so happy, she held back her smile and scooped out a bowl, pushed it in front of Yu Xia, and then raised her index finger to point at her.

"You! Last time I cooked a cup of turtle soup for you, you said that you like it very much, and it's been a long time since you've had it! The last time it was lotus root pork ribs soup, and you said that there is nothing better than this! If you want to say who in this family can make me happy the most, it's you, others will always have to blush when they lie, you don't have red skin, let me see if it's thicker than the corner of the city wall?"

Yu Xia only drank two spoonfuls, and when she heard this, she couldn't help laughing. When she laughed, her face flushed a little, and she said, "You can't pick me up and say this when I'm drinking soup. People will laugh at me, Ah Yue!"

"Why is Xiaoyue still involved?"

"Think about it, if I puffed it in public and sprayed it with water, people wouldn't say how the Yu family's daughter was, and they would always laugh at Ah Yue's bad eyesight and pick and choose such a rude woman. people."

After listening, Wang Zhenniang patted her and said that she should be beaten!

How can you say that about yourself?

"My daughter-in-law is stronger than anyone else's, and it's hard to find a second one with a lantern. How could she be ashamed of Xiaoyue?"

Seeing that her mother-in-law raised her eyebrows, Yu Xia immediately confessed: "Yes, yes, what you said is true! Your daughter-in-law has curly eyebrows, plump cheeks, beaded cheeks, beautiful jade and Lijuan, so quiet and beautiful..."

Yu Xia was also about to follow the ten or eight idioms, and Wang Zhenniang burst into tears, she shouted to stop, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief after seeing that she was not talking: "And you brag about yourself so much? You're right!"

"It's the mother's head, didn't I make you happy?"

Wang Zhenniang felt that there was no one in the whole family who could speak better than her daughter-in-law. She was not very happy at first, but chatting with her made her happy. She just remembered and said, "When you were talking to the adults just now, a few horses and carriages came from the direction of Kangping. It seems that someone from the Cao family in the county brought someone to look for Xiaoyue. I heard that they came for rice seeds."

"Isn't the rice seed divided? Ah Yue said that each township has more to give, and it can't be short."

Wang Zhenniang spread her hands and said that she did not know the specifics, but she came for rice seeds anyway.

Yu Xia thought for a while and asked, "Do you think they want to stay for dinner? If so, they have to prepare in advance."

"You don't need to worry about Xiaoyue if he doesn't send a message. He heard from the concierge that there is no one in the pedestrian to please, and he doesn't owe him anything. What's the meal?"

The Qiao family really didn't cook a grain of rice, and Cao Yaozu's trip to Chen Xiang started with a failure. He did see Qiao Yue, but he saw it from a distance, and before he got close, he was stopped by the elite soldiers sent by the emperor to station in Chenxiang. He said that he was the magistrate of Toyama who came for the rice seed, but it was useless. It doesn't matter if you are rich or poor, or how many officials you are, you can't go there without the Hou Ye saying that he will let you go. Great to be an official? The crops in the experimental field are more important than your life!

Cao Yaozula couldn't help shouting Qiao Yue's name, he waited beside him, waited for a long time, and finally finished the work in the field, Qiao Yue simply explained a few words, and walked on the mud with his fat son wrapped into a ball. One foot deep and one foot shallow.

When he came out, he ran into this pedestrian head-on.

Not only Cao Yaozu, but also Cao Hanzhi, who brought him here, and a few followers.

Qiao Yue wanted to avoid them, but Cao Yaozu cupped his hands and called his cousin-in-law.

He stopped, glanced sideways, and asked who are you?

It should be said that he is the magistrate of Fushan and also Yu Xia's cousin. His surname is Cao and his name is Yaozu.

Qiao Yue didn't lift his eyelids, said he had never heard of it, and called his son to leave again.

Cao Hanzhi stood up and asked Marquis if he remembered that he had a relationship with him. Qiao Yue stared at Master Cao for a long time, as if he was thinking back. After a while, he showed a sudden realization, clenched his right fist and gently hammered the left palm: "So it's you! I remember when I went to Cao's house with my uncle. Visit, you brought me a drink for a long time and walked around a dilapidated garden in the cold wind, what did you say? If I like it, just move two pots of flowers and go away, you're welcome?"

Qiao Yue was still talking, saying that he didn't like chrysanthemums, but he thought about it, and said that it was not easy for Mr. Cao to come all the way.

After speaking, he was about to go home. After walking a few steps, he found that Xiaodouding was not following. Qiao Yue stopped, turned around, and saw that A Rong was distracted. His eyes flickered and he did not know he was thinking what.

Qiao Yue went back, poked a finger on his cheek, and said, "Let's go."

A Rong's fat legs like a lotus root follow him.

Mr. Cao was stimulated too much, and he has not yet reacted. On the contrary, Cao Yaozu, patiently, asked Hou Ye to wait. He was still saying that if there was any misunderstanding in the past, he could apologize and hope that the more Joe would listen to what he had to say.

Qiao Yue ignored him, but it was A Rong, who turned around as he walked, stared at Cao Yaozu with cold eyes for a while, and seeing that he was about to fall behind again, he chased after him and said, "Father, wait."

The father and son of the Cao family returned home in vain. When they returned, they were so angry that they couldn't even eat. Master Cao poured a belly of tea. He sighed and said, "It's my father who underestimated him."

Cao Yaozu's face couldn't be called good-looking, he shook his head and said, "I don't blame my father, who would have thought that his words could be recorded for years. Besides, he was the one who stared straight at his cousin, and his father thought he was a disciple... ...I never thought that he would be able to have such a good fortune later."

"It's useless to talk too much. I think he has a grudge against our father and son. I'm afraid it's not easy to handle what you asked for, Yaozu." Master Cao said, and bowed his hands towards the top, "The emperor gave him the promotion of rice. , said it was all arranged by him, if he doesn't let go, you're afraid it's a waste of time."

Cao Yaozu also noticed it and knew that there was little hope, but he was not reconciled and said that he would wait two days for his mother to try it.

He thought about how Fang Shi was also an aunt and asked her to follow the path of his cousin.

Fang Shi had a lot of complaints against Yu Xia, and the two families had actually become estranged. Now her niece had a high status, and her aunt status was low. She felt shameless and didn't want to move forward. But it was about the son, and the son was still kneeling in front of her and begging her, Fang Shi gritted his teeth and agreed.

Before I went, I was still saying: "For my son, my mother is willing to do anything! What's the point of being wronged? Yaozu, don't worry, even if my mother kneels down and begs her, she will help you get things done."

Cao Yaozu was greatly moved, and promised that he would definitely be filial to the Fang family in the future.

Mr. Fang was ironed in his heart, so he got on the carriage and went to Chenxiang.

The aunt wanted to see her niece, and the concierge had no reason to stop her, so they immediately notified her to go in. Yu Xia came to greet her in person and invited her aunt to enter. Seeing her like this didn't seem like a grudge at all, Fang Shi was still puzzled. She followed Yu Xia into Qiao's house and sat down to chat a few words. Until she mentioned the matter of Cao Yaozu, Mrs. Fang said that Cao Yaozu had been to Chen Township a few days ago and wanted to talk to Hou Ye about rice seeds, but the discussion failed.

misunderstanding?

Anyone may misunderstand Cao Yaozu, and Qiao Yue, who knows the plot, is impossible.

Yu Xia covered her expression with the tea bowl, and took the time to drink water to think about how to answer, but Mr. Fang couldn't wait, and said, "If Yaozu does something wrong, I'll ask him to come to apologize, the rice seeder. You must help your niece, this is a great deed for the benefit of the country and the people."

"Auntie, if you want to chat with me and have tea, I will welcome you at any time. If you come for rice seeds, I don't want to listen. Men should worry about benefiting the country and the people for generations to come. I don't want to ask. , how the rice seeds are distributed, everything depends on the arrangement of the court. The emperor is not in a hurry, the ministers in the court are not in a hurry, what is the cousin in a hurry? In the past tens of hundreds of years, the harvest was just like that, and the days have passed, why are the high yields now When the rice comes out, the common people can’t live on? This argument cannot stand.”

Fang Shi originally wanted to put a high hat on Qiao Yue and touted him, making him embarrassed to refuse.

As a result, the Qiaoyue people didn't even know about it in the field, and she couldn't even pass the level of her niece. Those who want to be shameful are afraid of meeting shameless ones, Yu Xia directly said that she doesn't care about men and doesn't want to listen to this, but instead forced Fang Shi to an embarrassing situation.

She also advised Mrs. Fang not to worry so much about Cao Yaozu: "Cousin has already married, auntie, you should sit down and enjoy the happiness, why do you care about so many things? I said last time I saw you very young, this time Why...hey, you must pay less attention, take care of your body and bones, and wait for happiness."

The same mouth can coax your heart out, or make you mad.

At this moment, Mr. Fang was holding back his stomach and did not dare to attack, so he had to endure it.

"Don't say anything about benefiting the country and the people, this is about your cousin's future, and your niece must help you a few words and let Hou Ye distribute some rice seeds."

Yu Xiaman was embarrassed: "Aunt, you said so, and I will tell the truth, there is not much."

Fang didn't believe it.

Yu Xia sighed and said, "There was indeed a little left, and it was all distributed to the Qiao family. Our Lord Hou is always surnamed Qiao."

...

Fang Shi, who had high hopes from Cao Yaozu, came with a ruthless force and punched the cotton. She thought she would be made difficult, and even thought about how to deal with it, but Yu Xia politely invited people in, it was easy to get in, but the rest did not go according to her plan at all. She was led by her niece and slipped around by the nose, until she was sent out, and the carriage drove away from Chenxiang Fang, and she still felt that she had not stepped on the ground.

She came down with Cao Yaozu's expectations, but failed to bring back the good news. Mrs. Fang explained the reasons and the consequences, and then listened to her daughter-in-law, Mrs. You, pouting: "My mother is often so perfunctory, and my cousin treats you like this, it's not at all. I didn't take you seriously!"

Although this is the case, she directly pointed out that Mrs. Fang was shameless, and she wanted to show her mother-in-law's majesty to show her daughter-in-law a little bit, but she could bear it when she thought that she was the beloved daughter of the prefect of Cenzhou.

Fang Shi didn't teach anyone, she smirked and said, "Daughter-in-law of Yaozu, you are the daughter of the prefect with a lot of knowledge. Come up with an idea, what should I do about this?"
