Chapter 268 Lychees
Chapter 268 ·Lychee
But this will only happen five or six years later. A newborn child is the most immature and cannot withstand any trouble. Who would be willing to let a child who is just over a month old travel a long distance, let alone a child of the Qiu family. Since the day he was born, he has been holding a golden spoon in his mouth. He was afraid that he would melt in his mouth. How could he make a little mistake? It would be a little bit different if Mrs. Dong could see him at that time, let alone Mrs. Tang.
Besides, a person’s lifespan cannot be determined by himself. Who knows what the situation will be then?
Mrs. Tang couldn't help but sigh, but she knew in her heart that she could not say anything on her lips, and even said to Dong Yulu with a smile, "That's good! Don't listen to me and you, you really can't move then. If your uncle doesn't let me go out, I can't go anywhere. You bring the child to me, and I have good things for him."
The Tang family has no wealth. When they couldn't live a life, the slightly valuable things were either sold or pawned. What good things could be found. Mrs. Tang said this to reassure Dong Yu.
Dong Yulu naturally understood, and held Mrs. Tang's arm and said for a while. The two of them discussed for a long time and finally set the return date at the end of August. The weather turned cold at that time, and the road would not be too hard.
Huang, who received the news, said he would not agree to anything, "You rarely come to Hangzhou once, so you have to stay longer. How could you be so anxious? Even if you miss your grandmother, you have to leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival. When the time comes, Brother Zhi will come back. Our family will be reunited once. I have even booked crabs with the crab farmers in advance, and they are all the largest ones. You have finished the Mid-Autumn Festival with us and are the same when you go back to celebrate the New Year with your grandmother before the New Year. Mrs. Dong is a well-educated and polite person, so you will definitely not say anything about this."
Dong Yulu smiled and didn't know how to reply, but Mrs. Tang called Huang to her side and said a few words in her ear. Huang then suddenly realized, and then looked at Dong Yulu's eyes and smiled, "I said why are you so anxious? Since it's a big deal that concerns your life, I won't stop you. If you really decide, remember to send someone to send a message to make your grandmother and uncle happy too. When you get married, let your uncle go to the wedding early. As the saying goes, his mother and uncle are old, and he will definitely send you a wedding."
Although Dong Yulu is not young, she is a daughter's house after all. She always feels embarrassed to be talked about marriage in public. Besides, whether the marriage with the Qiu family can be successful or not, it is too early to mention it now. She blushed with a shy face, "Aunt my aunt and grandmother will go together. I will accompany you to Hanshan Temple to listen to the monks there preaching. 'Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, the bell rings at the passenger ship in the middle of the night' is where. The monks in the temple are profound in Buddhism, and the analysis of scriptures is interesting and easy to understand, and they won't feel bored for a day. My father likes it very much. Every now and then, he goes to Hanshan Temple with his friends to stay for two days. He listens to the scriptures and eats vegetarian food. If his family doesn't send anyone to urge him, he doesn't want to come back."
Huang listened and smiled and agreed happily, "Okay, if there is no important matter at home, my aunt will definitely attend your wedding."
Mrs. Tang said, "You young people, let's go. I'm old and going out is like moving. I don't like to move at any time. Just bring my feelings to you."
Mrs. Tang is a widow, so she doesn't easily attend other people's weddings, afraid of being unlucky. She often says, "If someone is willing to send me a post to invite me, that is to give me a face to my old woman, but I can't be ignorant. Whoever marrys a daughter and marrys a wife is a first-class wedding. I, a widow, joins in the fun. If I really get into the wedding, do you think they blame me or not? I have lived to this age and have seen many strange things. Some things are better to believe in their own things than to be untrustful, and would rather be more troublesome than to cause trouble to others."
Huang knew her personality and did not persuade her. However, Dong Yuli felt regretful and held Mrs. Tang's hand to comfort her for a long time. Mrs. Tang was afraid that she would not finish her moaning again, so she had to say in a difficult manner, "I rarely travel far in recent years. First, I am afraid of trouble, and second, I am worried that the road will be too difficult. You will not get married tomorrow, so let me think about it carefully."
When Dong Yulu saw that she was not as determined as before, she agreed happily.
The return date has been set, and Dong Yuli cherishes the time he spent with Mrs. Tang. After all, this time I leave, I don’t know how long it will take to meet next time. She goes to Mrs. Tang’s house to eat every day, and after the meal, she has to accompany Mrs. Tang in the yard for two rounds, which makes Tang Xueru jealous. "Grandmother is almost occupied by her alone. Now it is difficult to see her grandmother."
Bai Rongxuan saw her pouting her mouth and looked angry, and couldn't help but say, "Cousin Yuli doesn't see her grandmother like us. She's going to leave after living for such a short time. She must be reluctant to let her go! I think you are idle, and you always think about these useless things in your head every day, so the speed of copying scriptures will be so slow. If you haven't finished copying this volume, I won't be with you anymore. You can write it slowly by yourself."
When Tang Xueru heard this, she put away her useless thoughts and copied the scriptures seriously.
However, thanks to the Jiang family's affairs, the two of them calmed down and copied the scriptures. After this period of time, their handwriting progressed rapidly. Tang Songzhou found out and asked Huang to take two pages to write the same thing. After reading it, he was very satisfied and agreed to look for some good ink back. With good ink, the characters written by good ink will be more beautiful. He likes these and naturally understands the experts better.
During the middle, Tang Xueli came to the house twice. Once, he sent the lychees that Tang Chongzhou brought back from another place. The lychees were slightly smaller than those commonly found on the market, but they were particularly rich, sweet and delicious. Even Dong Yuli, who was used to seeing good things, praised them. Tang Xueli smiled awkwardly after hearing this, but did not respond. In fact, his father brought back two baskets of lychees in total. One basket was sent to Xiang Aunt Xiang's yard before it landed, and the other basket was divided into several pieces, one of which was sent to Tang Xueli. Tang Xueli was thinking about the seniority of the second wife Tang, and sent her own portion as a favor. Otherwise, after hearing everyone's praise, she said that she should send some more, but she had nothing in her hand. It would be hard to move to Xiang Aunt Xiang's place, right?
Tang Xueli lowered her head awkwardly, and her face turned red.
Bai Rongxuan saw it and was secretly alert in her heart. Could it be that Aunt Xiang has begun to become restless now and intends to underestimate the right of Li Shi?
The second time I came was to visit Dong Yuli before leaving, and invited her to the eldest room for a meal. Dong Yuli thought that there was an aunt above her, so she didn't want to go, but she was afraid that the rejection would obviously hurt her face. Just when she felt embarrassed, Mrs. Tang had already spoken first, "Okay, then I'll go with you to lively. Speaking of which, I haven't been to the eldest room for several years. I wonder if Sister Li is welcome?"
Anyone with discerning eyes knows that Mrs. Tang is worried that Dong Yulu will feel uncomfortable when she goes to the eldest son's house, and may also be worried that Aunt Xiang will show Dong Yulu's face, so she wants to go there and protect her.
Although Tang Xueli knew it in her heart, she did not show any sign of her face, and she had a bright smile on her face, "Look at what you said, if you are willing to come, I would like to invite a troupe to the house to sing a party. How dare I not welcome anyone who is not invited?"
After she said this, Mrs. Tang immediately became interested, "If you hire a opera troupe, you will have to be from Mingzhu Club. Everyone's voice is good at their posts. I only realized when I mentioned him. I haven't heard of his opera for almost five or six years, and I don't know if he is still on stage now?"
Tang Xueli said, "Hua Jia is older and her voice is no longer as good as in previous years. She doesn't make a lot of money on stage. He has taken in a few little apprentices and is now praised as a famous actor. Hua Jia is only helping his disciples change opera clubs. Unless he is a familiar old acquaintance, he will sing a 20% discount on stage. You have an identity, and he will definitely sell you face. Then we can also listen to Hua Jia's voice."
