Chapter 15 beautiful heart song

After Gu Yingchun left, Hu Xueyan could devote all his attention to Furong.When Xiaobie reunited, I naturally had some thoughtful words, asking her about her daily life in Huzhou, and also about her brother.Furong told him that she was determined to make her brother study better, and she was attached to a scholarly family named Zhu to study. Every month, Shu Xiu and meals cost three taels of silver, and she agreed that she would not be allowed to go home on weekdays. Hu Xueyan was very surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect that Furong's weak temperament would raise her brother with such a strong attitude.

"Then what about Little Rabbit?" he asked, "I live in Zhu's house alone, so I don't want to go home?" "Why don't you want to? I escaped back on the third day after I arrived at Zhu's house, and I beat my palm back." "Are you really ruthless?" "If you know my heart, you know that I am ruthless!" "I only know that your heart is good, but I don't know that you are cruel." Hu Xueyan had estimated that she had a very serious statement, so in order not to make the atmosphere boring and serious, there was a hint of joke in her tone.Furong is the most gentle and docile, and I also guessed that Hu Xueyan only wants to enjoy warmth and laughter at this moment, and hates to hear serious words, so she keeps smiling and only puts out the snacks brought from Huzhou, such as baked green beans, crispy candies, etc. For his leisure.

She guessed what he was thinking, but she wasn't quite right. Hu Xueyan's temperament can tell jokes at any time, and he can also talk about serious things at any time, and when talking about serious things, he can also talk about jokes. He laughed again and said, "What kind of heart are you, why don't you say it? Do you want me to touch it?" As he spoke, he grabbed Fu Rong's arm and touched her chest. leave.Then I found someone passing by outside the window, looking at the back was the clerk of Daxing Inn.Obviously, his frivolous action just now has fallen into the eyes of outsiders. Even though Fu Rong was gentle and docile, she couldn't help being annoyed, she shook her hands and sat aside, turning her head and ignoring Hu Xueyan.

He got carried away for a while and made her unhappy, so he naturally felt guilty, but it wasn't worth going over and saying good things with a smile, and things would pass after a while.So I just sat and ate baked green beans and wondered, what would Huzhou want to ask her? By chance, she noticed that Furong was pulling out a handkerchief from the button under her armpit and was wiping her tears. She couldn't help but turn pale with fright, and ran over, holding her face in her hands to see if there were any traces of tears? "This, why is this?" "Nothing!" Fu Rong blew her nose, wiped her tears, stood up and pulled the front of her clothes, and sat down as before, trying to pretend that nothing happened.

"There must be a reason." Hu Xueyan said in a special way, "If you don't tell me, I will be suspicious." "I feel sad when I think about it! I don't blame others, I only blame my own life." She turned her face to one side and said calmly, "If you are a couple who are equal, you must respect others, I wouldn’t use such hands and feet to make irrelevant people look down on me.” The more resentful but not angry, the more uneasy Hu Xueyan was. Explaining is difficult and redundant. The only way is to admit his mistake. "I was wrong!" He lowered his head and said, "I will understand next time."

The loyal Fu Rong wanted to explain, "I'm not saying you don't respect me, but there's nothing you can do about it because of your limited status." She added, "You should be able to figure it out now, why am I so cruel to Little Rabbit? Calm down, I want him to strive! I want him to forget that there is a sister like me!" "This—" Hu Xueyan was quite disturbed, "You also take this too seriously! It is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, and I have never underestimated you." "That's not what I said." Fu Rong also felt that it would be boring to talk about this matter of identity, so she avoided talking about it, and only talked about her brother, "I have thought about it all by myself, and the little rabbit is by my side. , will definitely not be promising, why, first, don't worry about food, don't worry about clothing, I always follow him, just raise but not teach, and he will definitely not be successful; second, there is the third uncle there, Xiaotu If you can't learn a good job, you will have everything you need for whoring, gambling and eating in the future. Our Liu family will never turn around again!"

These words made Hu Xueyan speechless for a while, although he didn't say anything, there were many things in his heart. The one he wanted to say the most was: "I misunderstood you!" Colorful powder, an ivory carving knife, what kind of person you want to shape, that is what kind of person.Only then did I know otherwise!Seemingly weak, but in fact strong, and the more such a person, the deeper the thought, the more unexpected the things he does and the words he says.From now on, no one should be underestimated!Otherwise, there may be a big fight. Due to such vigilance, he was even more reluctant to answer easily, stood up and paced around, pondering over her words, thinking deeper and deeper, thinking about all the meaning she hadn't said.

"It's hard for you to think so deeply!" He stood firm and said, "However, I would like to advise you that you are not a lucky person! I am really worried for you. You can't let go of anything, and you are alone in your stomach. Kung fu is exhausting, no wonder people are so thin!" Furong is quite self-aware, knowing how to work hard in her stomach is not worth a little brainstorming, just based on these two sentences, one can imagine that he has understood something that she has never said-if She is the married woman he is marrying, Xiao Tuer, his brother-in-law, he will treat him as his own little brother, and he will naturally take on the responsibility of upbringing, but other things are not as good as this, so he can only rely on her to be his sister. There is decision.

As long as he knows, he will definitely find a way!Furong was thinking like this, don't need to speak first, let's listen to what he has to say? "It's my fault! I didn't think of Little Rabbit. But, having said that, I didn't think of it, and I didn't ignore him. I have too many things, even my own brother, I'm afraid I don't have time to take care of them. So , don’t blame me, as long as you mention it to me, I will find a way and do my duty.” Hu Xueyan paused and said, “You only have one flesh and blood, as long as you are willing, things will be easy, you say , what do you want little rabbit to do in the future? To be an official?"

"It doesn't have to be an official, I always hope that he can stand on his own." Furong thought for a while, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, with the kind of expression that she didn't want to say but insisted, "Anyway, don't act like Third Uncle. .” Hu Xueyan understood that this was a kind of emotion that she felt deeply saddened by her life experience.If it wasn't for Liu Bucai's incompetence, even if she believed in fortune-telling and fortune-telling, she was born as a concubine, but she can't be the main wife, and she can always be married!Just because I have a brother, but I can't expect my uncle to raise my nephew, so I finally have to be a man's concubine, and the purpose of the grievance is nothing but for the little rabbit.Hu Xueyan not only sympathizes with her, but also admires her because of her sorrowful feelings and bitter ambitions, so she feels more and more responsible for Little Tuer.

"I understand what you mean." He said, "Although your third uncle is not a loser, he has his reasons. He will be prosperous in the future. Don't underestimate him." "I don't underestimate him. He is my uncle. I can't write two characters in one stroke. I always respect him. But—" Fu Rong shook her hand suddenly, "I won't talk about him anymore. I just hope you take The little rabbit is one of his own." "Of course. What if you're not your own person?" Hu Xueyan said, "Let's gossip, but tell me, what do you want little rabbit to do in the future?" "Naturally, I hope that he will honor his ancestors." "Glory to the ancestors is the only way to be an official. It is not uncommon for an official like me to donate, and it is only worth the money if it is made with real knives and guns in the examination room." Hu Xueyan said calmly, "As long as the little rabbit is willing to fight for you, things will be fine." It’s also easy to handle, I’ll hire you the best gentleman to teach him to read.” In order to show that it was not a matter of perfunctory words, Hu Xueyan needed pen, ink and paper to write a letter to Wang Youling, asking him to entrust the "learning teacher" on his behalf to find a well-learned scholar to "sit in the library".Of course, he still has a lot of things to talk to Wang Youling about. Hu Xueyan is not very good at writing and ink, and some things, like the meeting with He Guiqing, must be written by himself, so this letter is written until the clock strikes twelve , not yet finished. Furong felt that the boss felt sorry for her. At first she thought he was a bit angry, but after seeing it, she didn't like it. She was writing a long story, and of course it was about other things.However, because the head always comes from the little rabbit, it is uneasy to be so cautious. "It's good to rest!" She said softly, "The lotus seed soup has been boiled into mud, eat something and go to sleep, we will talk about it tomorrow." "It'll be fine soon, it'll be fine soon." Hu Xueyan said without raising her head. Having said that, he still struggled to write for an hour before giving up. He handed the first piece of letter paper to Fu Rong. Furong could read, took it and read it: "Your Excellency Xuegong Taishou, Your Excellency, I respect you." After reading this, she laughed, "What a wordy title!" "You read on." So Furong read again: "Don't talk about it. Today I have a brother-in-law, Liu Xiaotu." At this point, Furong laughed again, "Why did you write Xiaotu'er's nickname?" "It doesn't matter. It's not official resumes. I have a close family relationship with Mr. Wang, so it doesn't matter if you write your nickname." It's not bad to think about it, she smiled and said: "After all, I can't talk about you." "You don't need to tell me, I know it myself, you see," he pointed to the word "brother-in-law", "you don't have anything to say, do you?" This is not treating Furong as a concubine. She is naturally grateful, but it is inconvenient to express it. She just watched quietly and saw that Hu Xueyan's requirements for the recruiter are good knowledge, good temperament, and not too old. Favorable.This showed that he was really planning for himself and the little rabbit, his heart turned hot and sour, and two tears rolled down unconsciously. "I think it's wrong again!" She wiped her eyes and said, "I'm afraid that the little rabbit will be unlucky, and I won't be able to afford it! Besides, I feel uneasy after such trouble." These words made Hu Xueyan helpless, "Fortune-telling and fortune-telling can be trusted, but one should not be too obsessed with these tricks." He scratched his head and said, "You are good in everything, but you can't see it from above." "In my opinion, it's better to attach it to someone's house first." "why?" For coming and going, or for Furong's fear that Little Tu'er would not have the kind of blessing to ask a gentleman to teach her. She believes in the horoscope most, and even believes that her own life is destined to be a concubine.Hu Xueyan realized this, so he had a solution. "I see it this way, you go and make a horoscope for the little rabbit first, what is your fate? If you are destined to be an official, then do as I say, otherwise it's up to you." "That's right! You reminded me. I'll make a horoscope for him tomorrow." Fu Rong went to find a piece of red paper, "I'll work for you to write down the horoscope of the little rabbit's birthday." After writing the little rabbit's birthday horoscope, having a midnight snack, and going to bed on the pillow, Fu Rong still has a "lawsuit" to try, which is a lock of black hair and two nails wrapped in the small white satin embroidered bag. "Where did it come from?" she said. "You don't have to lie, and you don't have to lie." "Listen to your tone, think that I must lie and tell lies. Then, I'd better not speak. If I tell the truth, you will not believe it." "I can't say no to you!" Fu Rong was a little annoyed, "If you don't tell me, I won't return the package to you." "You can take it, no matter if you burn it or throw it away, I will never ask." "Don't you feel distressed?" "Why do you feel distressed?" Hu Xueyan said calmly, "If you don't believe me, I'll burn it to your face!" "Ah!" Fu Rong sighed, "'Infatuated woman heartbreaker', I really feel sorry for the person who gave you these things." However, this sentence had an unexpected effect, and Hu Xueyan was very disturbed, "I don't care if you say I am different, but this is what I can't admit." He emphasized his tone and argued, "I am by no means a person without a conscience. This is also the case for the women I have liked." "So, have you ever liked this woman?" "That's right." Hu Xueyan had already guessed from Furong's tone that she would not be jealous, so she felt that it would be okay to speak up, so she said, "Not long ago, I liked it, and now it's broken. She didn't know why, suddenly "cold wok" Burst of hot chestnuts', I can never take advantage of 'boats and old docks'. So for these two things, I just pretend that I have never seen them." "I don't understand what you're saying." Fu Rong asked, "What's her name, and what's her background?" "It's called Sister Aqiao. It's from the hall. Grandma Qigu also saw it." Fu Rong was deeply surprised: "A straightforward person like Grandma Qigu would talk to me about everything, why didn't she mention this matter?" "Your words are funny, and a straightforward person should talk nonsense regardless of what he or she says?" Hu Xueyan reminded her, "Grandma Qigu is really a hero among women. Don't look at her as crazy. Missed her!" "Okay, okay! Don't drag the conversation away. Tell me about it. How can you do it well?" "That's it!" Hu Xueyan turned over and hugged Fu Rong. "Hmph!" Fu Rong sneered, "Looking at you like this, I still can't forget her in my heart, so use me as a substitute!" As she spoke, she wanted to struggle out of his embrace, but he was so strong that he hugged her tightly instead. Tighter, "I'm not using you as her substitute, I'm using you to compare with her." He said, "Her waist is not as thin as yours, and her skin is not as smooth as yours. Seriously, I still like you .” These two sentences are equivalent to adding a large spoonful of water to the vinegar pot, and the sour taste is diluted. "Stop filling the rice soup!" She paused and said, "Tell me about the matter with her from the beginning to the end. .” "It's a long story!" Hu Xueyan took out his watch from under the pillow to look at it and said, "It's two o'clock! We'll talk until dawn, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." "You'll kill me if you don't tell me!" "What's this called?" "If you don't talk, I won't be able to sleep all night." "Okay, I'll tell." After finishing talking about Sister Aqiao's story, Hu Xueyan said again, "This way, you can sleep well, don't be wordy anymore!" "Is it okay to ask a question?" "Yes. But only one sentence." "In your opinion," Fleur asked, "will things change?" "What change?" "Sister Aqiao is afraid she won't marry He Xuetai." Furong analyzed calmly, "According to what you said, she didn't treat you very well at first, but when she meets He Xuetai, who is young, beautiful, and a big official, I have an idea in my heart. According to the rules, she has to know herself. She is from the He family. She has to avoid suspicion in front of you. Why did she let these two things happen in private when she was packing your luggage for you? Sign'? And sent you on the boat, pushing you repeatedly, refusing to get off the boat, wishing to come back with you. Can't you see that, her heart has changed again." "Why can't I see it? Just ignore her." "It's easy for you to say! It can be seen that you don't understand women's hearts." At this moment, Hu Xueyan had to break his precept, and asked: "How is a woman's heart?" "Men are more heartless. See one, love one, love one, lose one. Women are different. A heart is floating around, and it is not easy to find it. When it is in place, it is like a rope that binds you. Tightly, tie a tight knot, and you can't untie it. Now you are tied up by her, and you don't know it. How easy is it to say 'just ignore her'? Try it!" Fu Rong He added with a sneer, "It's really 'eat light plant ash, fart lightly'!" These words drove Hu Xueyan's sleepiness out, he opened his eyes wide, stared at the top of the tent, and remained silent for a while. "You said, my words are wrong?" "Not only good! Thank you, thank you for reminding me." Hu Xueyan asked anxiously, "Look, what should I do?" "Of course I took her back." This is an irony. In normal times, Hu Xueyan would definitely make her jealous and make jokes again, but at this time, he was not in such a leisurely mood, and said solemnly: "This will never happen. I will do it now." I'm afraid that if I didn't explain to He Xuetai, if I do one thing well, it will make him feel unhappy, and he will have opinions on me, and he can't explain it clearly!" Fu Rong wanted to test it out. Seeing his expression, a stone fell from her heart, and she wholeheartedly planned for him: "You have to get ahead now, don't wait for her to walk in front of you and make it clear. Things will get stuck, and everyone will lose face. The tree needs bark, and if she speaks it out, how can she take it back?" "That's right!" Hu Xueyan said, "I'm in a mess right now, I don't know what to do quickly?" "It's nothing more than explaining to He Xuetai early, taking Ah Qiao back, cooking raw rice and cooking rice, what else can I say." "The words are reasonable. But there is a rule in the officialdom that you don't understand. Wherever you are an official, you are not allowed to marry a woman from any place as a concubine. This is the trouble." When it comes to the rules of officialdom, Fu Rong can't say anything.But even so, her insights are still a great help to Hu Xueyan.When he woke up early the next morning, this was the first thing that came to his mind. His mind was clearer early in the morning. He thought about it calmly, and thought that although "raw rice" could not become "cooked rice" all at once, rice only needed to be cooked. Once the pot is broken, there will be no further changes. For now, we might as well entrust Pan Shuya to be our representative, and first explain to He Guiqing that the matter is a foregone conclusion, and Sister Aqiao will give up. This is to put "raw rice" into the pot way. However, this matter requires a person who is running around.Now there is Zhou Yiming there, otherwise there is Liu Bucai, who is also a good material for this job.Fortunately, things will not change for a while, so we might as well wait for Zhou Ming to come back. After he figured out this difficult problem, Hu Xueyan felt quite relaxed, and calculated that Gu Yingchun must be busy meeting with foreigners today, so there is no need to bother him, the only way to hang around with Liu Bucai is to go out for a stroll while at the same time. See if there is any suitable land, and buy it for Pan Shuya to build a new house. She got up and got out of bed when she wanted to stop. Furong finished her morning makeup and waited for him to wash and wash his breakfast. At the same time, she asked him what he was going to do today. "We'll talk about it when your third uncle comes." Hu Xueyan said, "I want to take you for a stroll." "I'm not going. What's it like in public?" "So what do you do?" "I'll go to Grandma Qigu." Fu Rong replied, "It's always fun to be with her." "It's just the two of you, how can it be so lively? I think it's better to invite Grandma Qigu to play together." "She refused." Fu Rong suddenly asked, "What did you say to her? She seemed a little angry. The old master often advised her to go out for a walk, so that she wouldn't get sick at home. She refused to say anything." Hu Xueyan also heard this the day before, and didn't take it seriously at the time, but now that Fu Rong mentioned it, she realized that Grandma Qigu was really working hard!It's a touching thing. "I'm just persuading her to act like a lady, but I don't know she's so serious." Hu Xueyan said, "Angry is never a thing, she admires me the most, and she still needs my help in important matters, so what's the arrogance? " "That's true," Fu Rong nodded. "When it comes to you, you are always the elder brother and the younger brother. I think," Fu Rong said with a smile, "there is only one person who doesn't admire you." "Which one?" "Mei Yu's mother." Yesterday he was jealous because of Sister Aqiao, and at this time his wife was mentioned again, Hu Xueyan couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, so he kept silent. Fu Rong is also a very knowledgeable person. Seeing his attitude, she stopped talking and chatted about other idle days, waiting for Liu Bucai.
