Li Rang is gilded, so why not compromise temporarily, life is long, and there will be more opportunities in the future.

After thinking about this, Zhen Wu's mood became clearer. He looked at Zhu Yuying's fair face, his lips were so moist that water dripped out, and he couldn't help but move his index finger.

He picked up Zhu Yuying's small face and took a bite.

Tender and slippery.

Zhen Wuba smacked his mouth twice, as if aftertaste, and joked: "You, if you belittle the books of sages and sages like this, if the scholars outside hear it, they will block our door and scold us one by one. .”

"My husband stands at the door, no matter how many scholars there are, who would dare to scold them." Zhu Yuying said proudly.

"That's true." Zhen Wu couldn't help laughing.

Seeing Zhen Wu's demeanor, Zhu Yuying knew that Zhen Wu had recovered, and felt very happy for a while.

Afterwards, the two got entangled together and chatted privately for a while. After lunch was finished, the two of them ate in a serious manner under Jin'er's eyes.

After eating, Zhen Wu went to the study.

He promised Li Si's daughter-in-law that he always had to do it. He picked up the pen and paper, thought about it quietly, and then began to write. He described Li Si's deeds in Zhuozhou City in detail, but Li Rangyin go.

Writing again will inevitably make Zhen Wu recall the battle report of Zhuozhou City again.

After Zhen Wu finished writing, he couldn't help but sighed a few more times. After adjusting for a long time, he slowed down again. He asked someone to call Xiao Qi over.

Xiaoqi was staying with Xiaoliu at the moment, when he heard Zhen Wu calling him, he was surprised instead of happy.

Among these people in the family, Xiao Qi is actually the most afraid of Zhen Wu. He usually doesn't like to join Zhen Wu when he has nothing to do, because Zhen Wu often catches him and asks him how he is doing with his homework. Questions like how long to dance the knife.

What's more, now that Zhen Wu is obviously in a bad mood, I'm afraid it's because the third brother is not here, and he's going to be used as a punching bag.

At this moment, Xiao Liu asked Jin'er enthusiastically, did Zhen Wu call her, but when she learned that Zhen Wu only called Xiao Qi, Xiao Liu suddenly became depressed, and then she hugged her Arm squinted and kept looking at Xiaoqi without saying a word.

Xiao Qi was expecting Xiao Liu to go there together, and quickly suggested: "Sister Liu, let's go to see Big Brother together?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Liu rejected it cleanly.

"No, you didn't call me, why should I go, it's disgusting." Xiao Liu said aggrieved and angry.

What she said was so outrageous, Xiao Qi was so frightened that he didn't dare to provoke Xiao Liu anymore, for fear that before Zhen Wu's reprimand, Liu Jie would be beaten up first.

He smiled mockingly, bid farewell to Xiao Liu, and followed Jin Er to Zhen Wu's yard.

On the way, the little seven thieves inquired: "Sister Jin'er, please remind me, what is my elder brother calling me for? He doesn't mean to hit me. If he hits me, you have to help me the first time." Call my sister-in-law for a while, I'm still young, I can't stand big brother's beating, if big brother gets angry and can't let go, I'll call third brother to beat big brother later."

Jin'er smiled lightly, and comforted Xiao Qi, "Don't worry Qi Ye, the county horse seems to be in a good mood, it's not a bad thing."

After hearing this, Xiao Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

When Xiao Qi arrived at Zhen Wu's study, Zhen Wu pointed to the stool, asked Xiao Qi to sit down, and asked a few questions about Xiao Qi's situation as usual.

Along the way, Xiao Qi had already prepared his answers, and answered them fluently.

Zhen Wu looked at Xiao Qi who had been doing well recently, and his mood improved a bit. He took out the letter written by himself, handed it to Xiao Qi, and said, "You can go on an errand for me later and deliver the letter by hand. In addition, his family There are two sons, the older one is called Li Ping, the younger one is called Li An, they are about the same age as you, after you pass by you get to know the two of them well, you can invite them to come to our house to play when they are free."

Xiao Qi accepted the letter obediently, and nodded honestly.

Zhen Wu glanced at him sideways, afraid that Xiao Qi would be negligent, so he asked, "Let you and Li Ping and Li An know each other so well, do you know what it means?"

Xiao Qi really didn't pay attention to this at the beginning, he just thought that the other party had two children of his age in the other party's family, but now he heard Zhen Wu deliberately ask again.

He understood immediately.

He nodded at Zhen Wu and said, "Understood, these are the playmates my elder brother ordered for me, just like Xue Xun and the others, I can't bully them, and I have to take care of them, treat them as my own like Xue Xun."

Seeing that Xiao Qi really understood, Zhen Wu nodded reassuringly, then explained the address to Xiao Qi in detail, and finally said: "Okay, you can send it there early while it's early."

Xiaoqi responded and retreated obediently.

After he came out of Zhen Wu's courtyard, he first went back to his own courtyard to change his clothes for going out, then after thinking about it, he went to the room where he hid his treasures, planning to pick out two gifts.

After some selection, Xiaoqi chose a model of a sailboat and a dagger.

The things here are actually his favorites, otherwise he would not have collected them here. Many of them are rare things specially found by the people in the shop, such as the sailboat model, which is very exquisitely made. The materials used are also very elegant.

Not to mention how much it is worth, it is rare on the market.

Xiaoqi picked up the sailboat model, played with it a little bit reluctantly, imagined the sea he had never seen before, and finally decided to put it in a box.

In the end, Xiao Qi asked the guards to bring their things, got into the carriage and headed towards Li Si's house.

In fact, he doesn't like this kind of errand, relatively speaking, he wants to see the endless sea.

……

It's evening time.

After Zhen Wu listened to the guards and reported Xiao Qi's actions in detail, Zhen Wu couldn't help showing some pride on his face. His younger brother was smart since he was a child. It looks like it has a shape.

At least Zhen Wu and Lao San are not as good as Xiao Qi at Xiao Qi's age.

In fact, it is not to blame that Zhen Wu and the third child live in different environments. Naturally, they will gain different life experiences and experiences in the process of growing up.

For example, after his family became prosperous, in the process of interacting with some children, many children flattered and fawned on Xiao Qi, and people in the family shop called him "Qi Ye" and "Qi Ye". He naturally learned some ways to win people's hearts and deal with people from it.

Maybe he didn't think much about it at the moment, the intention of what he did.

But when he grows up in the future, these things he realized when he was a child can effectively help him walk better on the road of life.

This is the influence of the living environment, and it is also the insight brought to him by a wealthy family.

For this alone, his starting line is higher than others.

……

Chapter 282 - New Year's Eve

In the blink of an eye, time came to New Year's Eve. On this day, Zhen Wu's family began to be busy from the early morning. The whole family, including the guards and maids, were busy.

Those who hung lanterns hung lanterns, those who put up Spring Festival couplets posted Spring Festival couplets, those who cleaned the yard were busy washing and cleaning, and even Zhen Wu took Xiao Liu Xiao Qi to paste blessing characters everywhere.

After a while, the three of Zhen Wu posted them in the yard of Ma Ren and Ma Yi brothers.

Xiao Liu carried the paste bucket, Xiao Qi dipped a brush in the paste and applied it on the lucky paper. Zhen Wu finished the last process by hand, pasting the word "Fu" on the door. The whole process was quick and straightforward. The two of them couldn't be happier watching.

At this moment, Ma Ren just came back from the outside and saw Zhen Wu and the other three personally pasting blessing characters in their courtyard. He happily turned around to avoid Ma Ren, and even squinted at Ma Ren with big eyes.

Ma Ren was taken aback, and smiled wryly at Zhen Wu: "Master, why did you bring Sixth Aunt and Seventh Master to do it yourself? This will make us as servants feel ashamed to death."

Zhen Wu threw the other blessings in his hand to Xiao Qi, and sent the two of them to post them first. When Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi saw that Zhen Wu had something to say to Ma Ren, they didn't make a fuss, and went to other places as sensible companions. They were excitedly discussing where to post the lucky characters again.

Zhen Wu looked at the back of Xiaoliu Xiaoqi talking and laughing, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, then turned his face pale and gave Ma Ren a look, and said: "Whoever talks about other people's affairs every day, Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi are fresh, and I am all When you take them to play, what are you fussing about?"

When Ma Ren heard what Zhen Wu said, he didn't say much, and smiled deliberately.

Zhen Wu gave Ma Ren another sideways glance in displeasure.

Ma Ren's mind has always been more active, and he is also more shrewd. Otherwise, Zhen Wu would not have let Ma Ren be the housekeeper of his family. It's just that this guy always likes to show a naive look in front of Zhen Wu.

It seems that Zhen Wu's mind is too small to tolerate his shrewdness.

Zhen Wu led Ma Ren into the room, and asked, "Have you delivered everything? Nothing wrong, right?"

When it came to the business, Ma Ren's face became serious in an instant. He shook his head and said, "Don't worry, sir. They've all been sent over. I've watched over them myself. The family is not bad."

Zhen Wu nodded, and then sighed: "In the end, I still have limited ability. I can only help a group of us to protect those soldiers who are particularly difficult, but there is nothing else we can do."

"You don't have to blame yourself, sir, what you have done is good enough." Ma Ren said.

"Okay, okay."

Zhen Wu waved his hand and said, "Each household is divided, and there is not much to share in total. In the end, it is just doing our best."

As soon as these words fell, Ma Ren was not happy, even if Zhen Wu was the master of the family, he would refute and refute Zhen Wu.

"My uncle is wrong. Although there are not many things in their hands, the statistics of so many families are not a small number for our family. You don't know. After you took this idea, I feel distressed." For several nights, this is because you have a kind heart, sir, so you can do this. Who else can do it? Is this just a little effort? Besides, even if each family doesn’t get much, it’s still enough. To solve their urgent needs, this family's hurdles, someone to help them through, is no less than a life-saving grace."

"All right, all right, you don't have to sing praises to me." After entering the room, Zhen Wu casually looked around Ma Ren's room, found a stool to sit on, and asked Ma Ren to sit down by the way, and then said : "Let's not talk about this, I haven't had a good chat with you for a long time, tell me, is there anything unusual outside when you come back?"

The New Year is coming soon, and he needs to chat with the housekeeper, have a heart-to-heart conversation, and express the concern of the leader.

In the shop before, all the people from Zhuangzi went there, and Zhen Wu, who was the important manager of the family, basically went there, leaving only Ma Yi.

Ma Ren is also looking forward to being able to communicate with Zhen Wu more, but after much deliberation, he finds that there is nothing unusual outside today, so he can only say helplessly: "All the shops on the street are closed, and there are not many pedestrians, so there is really nothing unusual." Nothing, but when I came back from the alley, the sound of chopping stuffing from every household made me hungry."

When Zhen Wu heard this, he laughed twice. He remembered that when he lived in Fengwei Hutong or Qingshui Hutong, every New Year's Eve, every household in the Hutong would be able to hear the endless sounds of chopping stuffing, and the voices were patchwork. , and playing the pipa, there is really a feeling of "mixed playing with large and small strings".

At that time, Erxian and the others were not yet married, Erxian made noodles, Zhang Yuqing chopped stuffing, fourth younger sister, fifth younger sister and Xiao Liu Xiaoqi, a group of little heads drooling around the chopping board.

All hungry.

Dumplings, even if they moved to Qingshui Hutong later, and the family conditions were not as bad as before, they still couldn't eat them a few times in a year.

It's like the common people all over the world have been holding back their greed for a year, just waiting for the day of New Year's Eve.

Now the conditions at home are a hundred times better than before, and an exquisite New Year's Eve dinner can be served on New Year's Eve. There are all kinds of chicken, duck and fish, but it seems that the atmosphere of the past is gradually losing.

Thinking of this, Zhen Wu suddenly became interested, and said to Ma Ren: "Go to the big kitchen later and ask people to make more dumplings filled with meat and vegetables. Let's add dumplings to the New Year's Eve dinner tonight."

"It's a good relationship. I'm so thankful, sir." Ma Ren said with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, I'm hungry too." Zhen Wu cursed with a smile, then turned to look at the simple furnishings in Ma Ren's room, and talked about another serious matter: "A year ago I let you live in the back of the house. I bought a few small houses on this street, you remember."

Ma Ren nodded and said, "Remember, I did it."

"When you look back, you and Ma Yi will choose a family."

Ma Ren didn't know why.

Zhen Wu pointed at Ma Ren angrily and said, "Tell me, if I don't give you all the important things in your life, you don't worry about it yourself? Both of your brothers are already in their forties. Is it possible that you still don't plan to marry a wife?" ?”

Ma Ren was a little ashamed for the first time, and an old man even twitched.

This made Zhen Wu laugh out loud.

Laughing until Ma Ren's face flushed red, Zhen Wu held back.

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore, but to be serious with you, do you have any sweethearts? Tell me and I will let the princess decide for you."

Ma Ren blushed and couldn't speak at all, Zhen Wu really didn't expect Ma Ren to have such a reaction, he couldn't see the shrewd demeanor of the big housekeeper in the past, and relatively speaking, it would be jumpy if he said this Listening to the stripped Ma Yi, Ma Yi must have been happy for a long time.

Seeing that Ma Ren couldn't explain why, Zhen Wu stopped embarrassing Ma Ren, patted Ma Ren on the shoulder, got up and said: "After the next year, our family plans to release a few big girls. They want to redeem themselves, we It's not difficult, if you want to be the master of the family, you must choose the steward in the village or the shop to get married. If you don't have a sweetheart, you can think about it these days, and I will send you the list of releases later. If you are interested, we will give you a chance to win the moon first, this kind of good thing, don't say that I don't take care of you."

After finishing speaking, Zhen Wu raised his eyebrows jokingly at Ma Ren, then shook his head and planned to leave.

However, as soon as he took a step, Zhen Wu suddenly became interested again, and deliberately teased Ma Ren and said: "By the way, you remember to talk to Ma Yi about this, and let's talk about it first. Don't think about taking this good thing to yourself. I will find it later." Ma Yi verified, and also, you two brothers, don't look at who is good-looking, because you beat someone first to get bloody, and the girl has to be happy about it."

Ma Ren was stunned.

Zhen Wu laughed and walked away slowly.

……

soon.

In the evening, the whole family gathered in Zhang Yuqing's courtyard and had a happy reunion dinner. After that, Zhu Yuying took Shi Nuan to chat with Zhang Yuqing. Sitting together and chatting.

After chatting for a while, the third child said that he had made an appointment with his colleagues to go to Zhang Yu's house to find Zhang Fu. Zhen Wu could not say anything except to tell the third child to be safe.

After the third child left, Zhen Wu was free by himself, but he didn't bother to play with his colleagues, so he came to the martial arts hall alone.

At night, the martial arts training hall was a little dark, and Zhen Wu didn't light the lights. He habitually sat in his usual position and began to stare at the stars outside in a daze.

I don't know how long it took.

Zhen Wu's ears moved, and he heard some movement from outside. He got up and looked, and Zhang Yuqing came over with a lantern, accompanied by a maid.

Zhang Yuqing also saw Zhen Wu at this moment, she smiled and said, "I knew you were here."

"What's the matter?" Zhen Wu asked.

Zhang Yuqing shook his head and said, "It's okay, but I saw that the third child was gone, so no one must have talked to you, so I thought of coming over to have a conversation with you."

Zhen Wu let out a hey.

"I'm such an adult, I'm still afraid of being bored. Besides, it's so cold here, you have a big heart. You are not afraid of freezing yourself. Let's go, and I will accompany you back to your room."

Zhang Yuqing glared at Zhen Wu complainingly: "I'm not cold, and I won't go back to my room, so as not to disturb your wife and the others again."

"Noisy? What are Yuying and the others doing?" Zhen Wu asked in confusion.

Zhang Yuqing suddenly looked a little proud, and she smiled and said: "Your mother and I are old, but we are not willing to admit defeat. Today's vigil has exhausted your wife and sister-in-law, so I let them Lay on my kang for a while, and then wake them up when the time is almost up."

"Hey, why are these two people daughters-in-law?" Zhen Wu was not happy.

Zhang Yuqing stared back at Zhen Wu, and supported his daughter-in-law: "What's your expression? They're busy these days, why don't they get tired? Let me tell you, don't make trouble for me."
