General, Madam Called You To Farm

Xiang Gongzi's condition is stable, Su Xiaoxiao won't stay any longer.

Before leaving, she took two boxes of snacks from the small basket and gave them to him.

This is— Xiang Gongzi looked at Su Xiaoxiao in confusion.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled: Today is a small year, I made some snacks myself, I hope you don't dislike it.

Chang Ping glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, this time he didn't dare to roll his eyes again.

Xiang Gongzi accepted it with kindness: Miss Su has a heart, thank you.

In fact, where does Su Xiaoxiao remember Xiao Nian? It was because he gave too much money for the consultation and medicine last time, and she was just a little more careful.

I really want to thank Mrs. Huang for reminding her that today is a small year.

Although it's not a valuable thing, but with his status as either rich or expensive, he doesn't care about those valuables at all, and maybe he buys all the treasures he owns, which is not worth mentioning in his eyes.

On the contrary, the desserts made by hand are more sincere.

Why are there two boxes? Xiang Gongzi asked casually.

One box is yours, and the other is Jing Yi's. Su Xiaoxiao.

Jing Yi. Xiang Gongzi smiled, You call him by his name, but it goes well.

Su Xiaoxiao spread his hands: He's small, what's his name?

Xiang Gongzi asked, Am I very old?

ah?

No, what are you doing with this?

You only said your surname Xiang, and you didn't say who you are Xiang!

Chonghua, he said.

Huh? Su Xiaoxiao was startled.

My words. He smiled warmly.

The ancients had surnames, names and words, such as Shen Chuan and the word Qinghe.

In this overhead dynasty, there seems to be no strict boundaries between characters and names. It is normal to call names among peers, and there is no disrespect.

Scholars have great etiquette and are often referred to by their surnames or characters. For example, their classmates may call Shen Chuan Shen Gongzi or Brother Qinghe. Of course, it is also correct to call him Shen Chuan.

Does he mean that she can call him Xiang Chonghua in the future?

Or... Chonghua?

Su Xiaoxiao blinked, serious and serious: Oh.

...

Not long after Su Xiaoxiao left, Jing Yi came in covered in snow and wind.

Mr. Xiang is writing.

Jing Yi came to him and asked, Cousin, are you also testing her today?

No. Master Xiang continued to write.

Jing Yi said again, Then why did you tell her your own words?

Xiang Gongzi glanced at Chang Ping who was sweeping the snow outside the door. Chang Ping shivered and hid aside.

I've got a lot of skills, and I've learned to complain to Jing Yi. Xiang Gongzi smiled lightly, She's not a poisonous snake or a beast, so there's no need to guard against her like this.

Jing Yi frowned and said, Then you don't have to trust her so much.

Xiang Gongzi pushed a box of dim sum on the table to his hand: Here.

What? Jing Yi asked.

A gift from Xiaonian. Xiang Gongzi said.

Jing Yi asked curiously, Didn't Xiao Nian pass yesterday?

On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month in the capital, the Qingzhou area is today. After finishing speaking, Mr. Xiang added, Miss Su made it by herself.

Jing Yi has no prejudice against Su Xiaoxiao himself, he just doesn't want his cousin to trust an outsider too much.

He took a bite.

How does it taste? Xiang Gongzi asked.

Jing Yi said truthfully: It's delicious, it's no worse than what the royal chef did.

Xiang Gongzi smiled and said, It's rare, I remember you don't like sweets.

Jing Yi thought for a while and said, It's because they don't taste good.

Xiang Gongzi laughed, wrote the last stroke, put the brush on the pen holder, and said to Jing Yi, Send this couplet to Miss Su.

why?

Return.

Jing Yi breathed a sigh of relief: You want to let your calligraphy go to the people?

If you let the one in the palace know, you must be furious!

——

After Su Xiaoxiao came out of Xiang Gongzi's wing, he went to the study in the front yard to see if Shen Chuan was there.

She walked all the way and didn't see a study open. She thought that Shen Chuan might have red paper in his hand, and she asked Shen Chuan to buy some.

But she didn't come by coincidence, Dean Shen took Shen Chuan back to her husband's house to spend the new year.

Su Xiaoxiao left the academy with regret.

The old man stopped her.

No pancakes today! Su Xiaoxiao said seriously.

The old man raised his finger: A cake, a piece of red paper.

Su Xiaoxiao: ...

A quarter of an hour later, Su Xiaoxiao walked out the back door with ten pieces of red paper in her arms.

The sweeping servant asked in a low voice, Didn't the young master let you... give the paper directly to Miss Su?

The old man took a bite of the egg yolk cake: Ang.

So what?

The pancakes are delicious!

——

It snowed again in the morning, but fortunately it stopped after only a short while, which didn't affect Su Xiaoxiao's footsteps too much.

It was noon when Su Xiaoxiao arrived in the village. At this time, most of the villagers were in their own homes. However, most of the villagers gathered at Lao Su's house, and the water around Lao Su's house was blocked.

Sister! You're back!

Su Ergou, who was fetching water at the entrance of the village, saw his own sister and insisted on following him to fetch water. In fact, he came to the entrance of the village to wait for Su Xiaoxiao's three little peas, and rushed towards Su Xiaoxiao!

Su Xiaoxiao bent down and let the three little guys bump into his arms.

She touched the heads of the three little ones: Big tiger, Erhu, Xiaohu.

After getting along for a while, now she can distinguish who is who, even if she doesn't count the number of spins.

The three little ones who were called by the right name were very happy, and scrambled to rub their hair against her palm: Mother.

Su Xiaoxiao has gradually become accustomed to this title and no longer forcibly corrects it.

After moving the small heads of the three of them, she touched the small hands of the three of them: Is it cold?

The three shook their heads: It's not cold.

Wait, mother, it's not cold at all!

Su Ergou's water was ready, and the family started to walk back.

What happened to the old Su family? Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Su Ergou snorted: The eldest cousin wrote blessing characters and couplets to the old Su family. There are relatives of Lizheng and the old Su family. He also said that if there are more in a while, they will give it to the villagers for nothing. Everyone wants to Let's see if I can grab a couplet, but if I can't, I can grab a blessing.

The couplets in the town are very expensive. In addition to the cost of red paper, the person who writes the couplets also needs to pay a little hard money, commonly known as pen and ink silver.

Huang's and Chen Haoyuan's performance can be said to be a big deal, earning enough face for the old Su family.

Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Yang came out to post the couplet, with beaming faces, and the villagers surrounded them and kept praising them.

At this time, the aunt of the Wu family hugged the crying grandson and beat the old Su family out.

Adults don't like Spring Festival couplets, and children don't want them. There's no other way. Aunt Wu had to go first.

When she saw the two brothers and sisters, she hurriedly said: Fat girl! Ergou! Chen Xiucai is writing a couplet, go and get a pair! He is your cousin! I will definitely give it to you!

Su Ergou rolled his eyes, who wants the couplet written by that guy!

The aunt of the Wu family shouted to the old Su family: Chen Xiucai! Fatty Ergou is coming to you for a couplet!

As soon as these words came out, the villagers instantly looked at the two brothers and sisters.

Didn't you say that after writing about the old Zhang family, it will come to us?

Yeah, why is there another couplet! Is it over?

I can't grab it! They are Chen Xiucai's cousin!

Su Xiaoxiao said: Everyone misunderstood, we didn't come to couplet, we were just passing by.

Huang Shi could find an opportunity to show off, she smiled proudly and sarcastically: If you want, just say it, for the sake of relatives, our Chen family can still afford a couplet!

Su Xiaoxiao said lightly: I said I don't want it.

The Wu family aunt persuaded: Fatty, don't be so rude, your aunt said she gave you away, why don't you?

Su Xiaoxiao said domineeringly: I don't like it!

What did Fatty Su say?

Does she... despise?

The couplet written by Chen Xiucai, she actually despised it!

Su Fatya's words successfully attracted everyone's attention!

It's just that everyone doesn't think it's her sincere words. On the contrary, they only think she's talking mad!

Who is Chen Haoyuan? He is a more powerful scholar than He Tongsheng, and it is difficult to find the second one even in eight townships!

Besides, this couplet is as rare as big meat in the countryside where you can only eat two meals a day except during the busy farming season!

Who doesn't want to ask for a sticker for the New Year?

Oh, I heard that the relationship between the two families is not good, and the last time it was so ugly. A villager said.

It was talking about Huang's family and her husband Chen Feng going to Xiao Su's house to tell their illegitimate son and Su Fatya about their marriage, but Su Fatya and the newly married Qiao Lang slapped Chen Feng and his wife in public.

If it's me, I don't have the face to discuss the couplet.

Xiusai Niang doesn't care about her, she is tolerant and generous and gives her couplets, she still doesn't want it?

Everyone said it was shameless.

There are a few folks who talked about you and I. Last time I was at the door of Xiao Su's house, these people didn't have such a face, but they had nothing to do with themselves, and they didn't take it seriously big.

It's just that all the time, in order to get the couplet written by Chen Xiucai, everyone almost turned to Huang.

Huang was very comfortable with the phrase tolerance and generosity. The last three or two couplets were to be given away anyway. If she could gain a good reputation and step on this girl's face, she would have no reason to disagree.

She pretended to sigh: Don't talk about it, my little girl left early, and there is no mother to take care of it, she is inevitably a little ignorant. Is it possible that my aunt can really care about a child?

These words just didn't make it clear that Fatty Su was born or raised by a mother.

Thinking that Huang's reasoning was very good, she said generously: Forget it, Fatty, don't embarrass you anymore. You call me auntie, and I will give you this couplet.

Ah, really delivered? Then what shall we do?

Yeah, it's been a day!

I'm really sorry, Fat Ya is Brother Hao's cousin after all...don't look...

Huang's words were only halfway through, when he turned his head, Fatty Su was gone!

This, this, this dead girl, and left without waiting for her to finish her sentence? !

Damn girl! Stop for me!

Huang Shi was shaking with anger!

Su Xiaoxiao led the three little ones and said unhurriedly, Er Gou, tell her that I don't even want to pay for the couplets written by Chen Haoyuan.

Su Ergou turned around and said loudly, My sister said it! The couplet written by Chen Haoyuan! We don't even want to pay for it!

Huang Shi stretched out his index finger and scolded angrily, You bastard! Just be stubborn!

Hard-mouthed?

Su Xiao smiled shyly.

Let's not mention how Chen Haoyuan is a person, just his words——

She can clearly see the couplet posted by Fang Cai and Yang Shi, and it is far from Wei Ting's!

It is no exaggeration to say that comparing his words with Wei Ting's is simply a leap of faith!

Er Gou, go back and write the couplet ourselves.

Su Ergou turned his head again and said loudly, My sister said it! Go back and write our own couplets!

Su Xiaoxiao: Don't tell me this sentence...

Huang Shi smiled: Okay! Go write it! If you can write it, I will chop off my head for you!

Did she know Fatty Su on the first day? In a family of three, no one is literate!

Pros and cons are not bad! Also write couplets? This is bullshit!

She wanted to see how the family surnamed Su ended up!
