Qing Wu Red House

The maids came and went, and the meal was set up in a while.Mrs. Chu pulled Daiyu and said with a smile: "Today, I will sell the old man and let Hao Rui and Tianyou accompany us to have a meal. It will be a lively celebration for my birthday."

Only then did Daiyu remember that her gift hadn't been delivered yet, so she hurriedly called Zijuan in, and presented the embroidered screen and handkerchief to Mrs. Chu: "Daiyu doesn't have any other skills, this is embroidered by Daiyu herself." , I hope my aunt likes it."

Mrs. Chu looked at the lifelike magnolia in surprise, and then pointed to the magnolia on her body: "Compared to this, the embroiderer on my body is almost ashamed to go into a hole in the ground. Hey, this daughter really It's really good. When I was pregnant with God Bless, I prayed all day long that God would give me a daughter, but when she was born she looked like a bald boy, and I was so angry that I didn't get over it for a month."

"Mom! I've turned my back on you!" Chu Tianyou yelled, completely out of his usual graceful manner.

Mrs. Chu stuck her tongue out at Daiyu, snickered, and continued to complain: "Look, what's so good about having a son, you know how to yell at me every day. If you marry another daughter-in-law in the future, the two of you will fight together to bully me." Me, I really want to cry and have no place to cry."

"It's okay, Hao Rui will take care of you then!" Lin Hao Rui interrupted without fear of death, causing Chu Tianyou to beat him up.Daiyu couldn't help laughing out loud, the atmosphere of the Chu family must be too good.

The Chu family's banquet looked carefully prepared. In order to cooperate with the Lin family's brothers and sisters to become vegetarians, all the dishes were specially prepared as vegetarian dishes.After Daiyu sat down, Mrs. Chu kept giving her vegetables, telling her how each dish was prepared and what nutrition it contained.I really don't have a bit of upbringing without eating or sleeping.On the contrary, Chu Tianyou and Lin Haorui both ate quietly and did not speak again.

Although Daiyu knew that Mrs. Chu's behavior was very unruly, it made Daiyu feel warm in her heart.Although Madam Chu looked more like Chu Tianyou's sister, Madam Chu exuded a unique temperament of a mother, which made people unable to ignore her and wanted to get closer involuntarily.

After lunch, Mrs. Chu still dragged Daiyu to talk to Hao Rui, saying it was for digestion.Chu Tianyou also felt helpless against his mother, so he sat on the side to accompany her.Lin Haorui smiled and brought back the topic before the meal: "Auntie hasn't said that if Tianyou wins Juren, what does it have to do with Haorui's coming as a guest?"

"It doesn't matter. If he wins Juren, my family will definitely not be as quiet as it is now. I will be bored to death by then. Even if I want you to come, you must not care to chat with my old woman. It must be La Going to celebrate with Tianyou." Then he said to his son: "Chu Tianyou, let me make it clear first, whether or not you are selected is your business, don't take all those cronies at home." Chu Madam seemed to really disapprove of Chu Tianyou's participation in the scientific examination, and Daiyu was too surprised by Madam Chu's tone of voice to her son.

Lin Haorui patted Chu Tianyou's shoulder, and then interrupted: "Tianyou is full of knowledge, so he has to give it a try, so that all these years of hard study are worthwhile. Isn't there an old saying that if you learn literary and martial arts well, you can sell them to the emperor's family. "

"Of course I have no objection to this sentence. But how many real talents can be tested in the imperial examination." Mrs. Chu personally brought tea to Chu Tianyou and Lin Haorui: "It's not my aunt who is sophistry. Hao Rui, tell me, the stereotyped essay Can doing good or bad be the standard for judging whether this person is really learned? To put it a little bit further, can it be used as the standard for a good official? Let me tell you, that is completely unattainable. This official wants What is important is to be pragmatic, what is important is to be able to formulate correct strategies and guidelines, if so, how to do practical things for the common people. I do not doubt Tianyou's ability, but I think the exam is unnecessary. If you have the skills to cope with the exam, it is better to do more. He is a hero and serves the country by serving the army."

"Mom, the more you talk, the more outrageous it is!" Chu Tianyou still looked at Lin Haorui with a helpless expression: "Now you know, since she knew I was going to participate in Qiuwei, she has been nagging, she has become an old woman .”

"I think your thinking is naive. Look at Hao Rui, although he is younger than you, his thinking is more mature than yours. If you are an official in the same dynasty in the future, you will always be a minister if you die, and Hao Rui can do it." Power ministers." Mrs. Chu continued to publish high-level remarks.

"So, my aunt's place is my favorite!" Lin Haorui laughed loudly: "Only with my aunt, can I regain some self-esteem in front of Tianyou. With my master and brothers, I can't compare to Tianyou at all. "

Daiyu listened to several people talking, the more she listened, the more amazed she became, and the more interested she became in this Mrs. Chu.At first, she thought that Mrs. Chu and Baoyu had a rivalry, because they both hated official career and economics.But after listening to it, I realized that Mrs. Chu did not object to Brother Chu's advancement, nor did he object to Brother Chu's appointment as an official, but only thought that the scientific examination system was not good.No, if you think about it carefully, it's not that the system of the scientific examination is bad, but the content of the scientific examination is bad.Daiyu smiled secretly, wondering how Madam Chu's words would react when the hard-working students heard them.

After chatting like this for a while, the brother and sister of the Lin family boarded the carriage home from the Chu family.As soon as he returned to the inner courtyard, Zijuan couldn't help but said: "This Chu family is really an eye-opener. I can't move my eyes when I look at that large piece of glass."

Daiyu also smiled, and looked at Hao Rui who sent her back: "Is Brother Chu's family very rich?"

"I don't know! I also asked Tianyou this question, but that kid doesn't know how expensive he is, and he doesn't know how much wealth his family has. However, his monthly money is not as much as mine. Many, even when I was originally in Qingping County, I was a little bit more than him."

"Ah?" Zijuan and Xueyan both widened their eyes at the same time.Qingwen interjected with a smile: "I know this. Today, Madam Seven said that Mrs. Chu believes in raising children from the poor and raising daughters from the rich. Therefore, their uncle has not had much pocket money since he was a child, and there are not many people to take care of him. He has to do everything by himself." Do it yourself."

Nanny Song explained from the side: "This girl has caught people's eyes, no, she even brought a gift back!" Zijuan and Xueyan looked at Qingwen's gift with smiles, and laughed for a while.

"Aunt Chu is really a strange person!" Daiyu said leisurely.

"That's not it." Lin Haorui smiled: "Although Tianyou doesn't know how much their family has, he still knows that glass is ridiculously expensive, so when Aunt Chu said that it was used to frame windows, he was very righteous. He taught his mother a lot of rhetoric, but unfortunately it didn't work. So, on the day he installed the glass in his house, he mingled with me in the academy, saying that he was afraid of seeing his heart hurt when he went home."

"Uncle Chu is so humorous!" Xueyan laughed a little out of breath, while Zijuan widened her eyes curiously: "What happened next?"

"What's the next thing? Later, not only Aunt Chu's hall was installed with glass, but Tianyou's study was also installed. There, Tianyou kept complaining that he couldn't read the book at all, and when he raised his eyes, he could see it." I was thinking, how much would it cost for such a large piece of glass?"

"It's not easy for Aunt Chu's family to live like this!" Daiyu sighed, and Hao Rui shook his head: "Don't look at Aunt Chu who spends money ruthlessly, making money is even better. The people under the Chu family There are a lot of businesses, all of which come from money. I heard from Tianyou that her mother also opened a glass factory, and now she can make some small ornaments, which are expensive. If there is a chance, I will ask Tianyou to send Aunt Chu Make a copy of the articles of association formulated by the shop, and my sister will know that what Aunt Chu said today is definitely not some nonsense."

Daiyu's eyes widened, and she looked adoring: "Then why does Brother Chu insist on taking the imperial examination?"

"I'm afraid it's a kind of proof, to prove to Aunt Chu that if you don't follow the path arranged by Aunt Chu, you can still go to the Kangzhuang Avenue." Lin Haorui sighed slightly: "You don't know, for the opportunity of this scientific examination, Tianyou has fought for a long time Woolen cloth."

"I can imagine it!" Thinking of Chu Tianyou's helpless look, Daiyu still couldn't help laughing.That kind of Chu Tianyou completely subverted the image of saving him from danger in her heart, and even these two images could not completely overlap in her heart.

"Oh, that's right!" Lin Haorui said to Zijuan suddenly: "Go and call Mama Zhao in!" This Mama Zhao is the master of medicinal food that Madam Chu gave to Daiyu, and Hao Rui has been with Madam Chu for a long time Ever since Zhao's mother showed such a golden needle when Lin Ruhai was critically ill, Lin Haorui knew that this Zhao's mother was by no means an ordinary person.Later, seeing that Daiyu's body was not failing, she wondered if she could take Mother Zhao over to nurse Daiyu's body.

After inquiring carefully, I found out that this mother Zhao was born as an imperial physician, and was later enslaved due to some crimes. Mother Zhao never married in her life and devoted herself to the study of medicinal food, hoping to carry forward the family.I don't know why he ended up staying in the Chu family for half his life.

To say that Mrs. Chu treated Lin Haorui very well, although Mrs. Chu joked that she wanted to recognize Lin Haorui as her adopted son, but Lin Haorui refused. Apart from being a filial piety at that time, she also had deep regrets for her mother.Lin Haorui originally thought that he would completely offend Mrs. Chu, but Mrs. Chu was not annoyed at all, saying that those false names were not important, and sincerely treated him as her son.

No, Chu Tianyou struggled for a long time, and finally he said helplessly that it was Lin Haorui's intention.When Mrs. Chu heard this, she immediately nodded her head in agreement, which made Chu Tianyou feel a little uncomfortable, and kept saying that she was just a wild child picked up on the street, nobody loves anyone, which made Mrs. Chu laugh out loud .
