The Landlord And His Wife

    The matter of Liu Lin has been settled, and Liu Xuer should go to Shicheng's house to see her future mother-in-law.

    Actually she shouldn't go now, it's not suitable, but because Shicheng Niang is not here, and it's mainly that she and Shicheng got married early, it's like a person who wants to marry a baby, The unmarried couples still keep in touch after all these years. So it doesn't matter that much.

      But I also knew that she was busy with her second brother, so she asked Liu Xuer yesterday, and it happened that the family affairs were temporarily settled, so I hurried over today.

    I asked Shicheng yesterday. I heard that Xing Rongrong had not left yet, and Liu Xuer felt a little uncomfortable.

    If there is a young lady in the Shicheng family who is about the same age as Xing Rongrong and the two of them play together, then it’s okay if you stay and don’t leave, or what kind of relatives are you and the Shi family? It's okay, but it's nothing, but staying here and not leaving, it's not... It's uncomfortable to think about.

    What's more, Liu Xuer also knew that Shi Chengniang used to be optimistic about this Xing Rongrong, if it wasn't for Shi Cheng's firm opposition...

    When I went out that day, I subconsciously dressed myself up. She wore a long spring dress with a smoky silk bottom and a butterfly show, with a lotus and lotus-colored interlaced surcoat on the outside, with a small bun on her temples, and a silver hairpin with a butterfly flower on her head.

    In fact, Shicheng has bought a lot of jewelry for her over the years, and there are more than a dozen hairpins, but Liu Xuer always likes this one the most.

    At the door of Shicheng's house, Shicheng was already waiting at the door. When she saw her car arrived, she came to pick it up with a smile: "Fortunately you have time today, my mother will be back in two days. Hanzhong Mansion."

    Liu Xuer jumped down with his hand, looked left and right to see no one, and asked subconsciously, "Xing Rongrong is still at your house?"

    Shi Cheng's laugh 'puchi': "Why? This is also wrong?"

    Liu Xuer didn't expect him to be so straightforward, she rolled her eyes at him and said, "What is jealous... I'm just asking, the relationship between your family and their family is really unusual, Isn't a big family the most disciplined? A girl who didn't leave the court and didn't get married, but lives in someone else's house, and there is a young master of the same age in this family... Is this also disciplined?"

    Shi Cheng laughed and said: "Why don't you say that you are not relatives? If you say so, I can say that our two are old friends..." Speaking of which, I saw Liu Xuer With a snort, he hurriedly smiled and said in a low voice, "Just kidding, my mother said she was going to send her back, but to send her back, I have to send her back! Just stay here for two days and wait for my mother. Let's go back together. Don't worry, I didn't pay any attention to her when I lived here!"

    Liu Xuer turned to look at him, and said, "You're less stinky! People didn't like you at all back then."

    Shi Cheng touched his nose: "It's different now, I've grown up, the jade tree is close to the wind, the teeth are red and the lips are white..."

    Before she finished, Liu Xuer had already bent down with laughter.

    Shi Cheng smiled and helped her up, and the two walked inside, talking as they walked, Liu Xuer only thought he was joking, but in fact, it was not all a joke, Shi Cheng has been fierce in recent years He jumped for a while, and now he is a young man with a tall stature. When he was a child, he was really a handsome boy with red lips and white teeth. Now he has grown up, has a handsome appearance, and has more mature men.

      Although he didn't do anything, he usually walked around in front of Shicheng on purpose, and seduced him by scratching his head.

      woman?

    The two laughed and entered the yard, went to the main courtyard and entered the house, saw Shi Chengniang sitting first, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Beside me, I smiled and asked about some things about their family this year.

    Shi Cheng smiled and sat next to them, drinking tea and listening to them, often adding a sentence or two to make them happy.

    Because Shi Chengniang asked about Liu Xuer's brother, Liu Xuer told about the eldest brother's affairs, some general situation of the eldest sister's family, Shi Chengniang nodded repeatedly: "Yes! There are still a few, the girls who come out like this are more sensible! Only when you are a sister-in-law can you hold on! I hear that I like the girl of your sister-in-law, who can endure hardships and not be spoiled, this is a good behavior. "

    Liu Xu'er hadn't reacted yet, Shi Cheng smiled beside him and said, "Mother, are you bragging about Xu'er? Xu'er also has such a character!"

    Shi Chengniang smiled, Liu Xuer was stunned, and quickly blushed: "You are too complimented, I still have a lot of work to do, learn more from you and my mother's way of doing things... We They are both young, and there are always things that are not thoughtful. You and my mother are elders. You have seen many things, so it is really rare and serious. If I can learn a little bit of fur from you and my mother, I will also Enough for me to cultivate my temperament now."

    Shi Chengniang nodded and smiled. Shicheng also laughed.

    The maid came in and said softly, "Madam, Miss Xing is here."

    Shi Chengniang's face turned slightly cold, as if she had deliberately said to Liu Xuer: "What's the matter? Today I want to talk to my daughter-in-law, and I specially tell her to go around by herself. , I've said it clearly enough, why are you still here?"

    Liu Xuer pursed her lips and smiled.

    Shi Chengniang said: "Since everyone is here, it's not easy to block back, so let's call in." After telling the maid, she turned her head and said to Liu Xuer: "When I came, She is about to follow, saying that she wants to see the elegant banquet we held last time... Speaking of that elegant banquet, I am really satisfied! After you and Shicheng become married, you need to hold more banquets like this, and make friends with Hanzhong Mansion. Those family members of the great mansion.”

    Liu Xuer hurriedly smiled and nodded, and when Shicheng Niang smiled and brought tea to drink, Liu Xuer looked at Shicheng suspiciously, Shicheng spread her hands small, saying that he was inexplicable about this matter !

    Where will you live after you get married, and even whether the marriage will be done in Fengxian or Hanzhong Prefecture, these things have not been discussed yet, Liu Xuer still feels early, and is busy with family affairs, Shicheng is not Thinking of it, after listening to my mother's tone at this moment, it seems that I have become a parent and want to be called to live in Hanzhong Mansion?

    This has to be discussed with Liu Xuer. Shicheng has also passed the stage of getting along with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She knows that it is best not to live together. I think Liu Xuer does not want to live with her mother-in-law. Son, he has to think about it.

      It's no wonder that she can dress up. She has been interested in these things since she was a child, so when she dresses up now, she is really pink and glossy, looking forward to flying.

      Come out, my sister turned out to be..." She paused again when she said this, and then felt that what she said was a bit inappropriate, but how to cover it up, but I didn't think it out for a while, the opening remarks wanted to hold Liu Xu'er, who knows Again it's inappropriate.

    The corner of Liu Xuer's mouth twitched into a smile, Xing Rongrong was originally from a merchant family. To be honest, her upbringing and conduct are really not as good as those of the real ladies from the family of poetry and calligraphy, not to mention Xing Rongrong Since I was a child, I have been pampered and a little out of shape. I am too selfish. I always speak without thinking, and I say it casually, which makes people feel very frivolous and not stable at all. In this case, the chance of saying the wrong thing is naturally much greater.

    Shi Cheng smiled and said: "Mother, I just took Xu'er to the back garden for a walk, didn't you bring her some silk and satin, and the ginseng bird's nest for Xu'er's parents? Yes, Xu'er and I will go take a look."

    Since she heard what Xing Rongrong said last time behind her back in the garden, Shi Chengniang was completely fed up with Xing Rongrong, and she didn't want to be accommodating any more, so she nodded and agreed with a smile .

    So Xing Rongrong just entered the room and sat down, without saying a word, Shi Cheng and Liu Xuer got up and came out.

    Liu Xuer followed Shicheng to the back garden and asked him: "What your mother said in the future in Hanzhongfu..."

    Shi Cheng smiled and said busyly: "I haven't discussed this with my parents, I also want to live here, after all, the business is here. The business of the side is slowly ending, but the development of Fengxian has been good in the past two years, and the business has been good, why should it end? I discussed this matter with my father, and my father also agreed that the shops and restaurants here have been open all the time. , since it is going to be open, someone has to take care of it. I also want to live here and not pass by. "

    Liu Xuer heaved a sigh of relief: "That's good...I don't want to go to Hanzhong Mansion either."

    Shi Cheng laughed, just about to reach out and put his arms around her shoulders, his hands were all in the air, and then he remembered that it was not the time for him to live alone at home, so he could only put his arms Putting it down, he smiled and said, "Stay here for a while today. Let's go back in a while and talk to your mother for a while... I think your mother is very satisfied with you now, and she likes it very much."

    Liu Xuer smiled and nodded, she also felt it. This day, I played here for a long time before going back.

    After looking for a day when the whole family was there, Liu Lin said that he was going to the Hanlin Mansion to ask for marriage, Liu Changgeng nodded and asked, but He didn't say anything. Liu Lin was still a little worried about her mother's attitude. Fortunately, although Mr. He didn't speak, at least he didn't object.

    Liu Lin also knew that the Hanlin mansion must focus on identity, so when calling the matchmaker, it is more important to clarify his status as a scholar.

    The matchmaker went to the Hanlin Mansion to ask for marriage. The Hanlin Mansion considered it for more than ten days before replying and agreeing, but with a condition that Liulin could not accept anyway!
