Those things about the landlady

Chapter 99
Did she hurt her face? She hurried forward a few steps, thinking she had reached a safe distance, then she turned around and continued to ask unwillingly:
"The concubine has been with the master for so many years, do you really have the heart to treat me like this?"

Yao Jiaxing impatiently chattered with her, and said coldly: "You have remarried now, Boss Fang is a rich man, and your life is no worse than that of my Yao family. If you are smart, you should cherish your blessings and not be obsessed."

Yao Jiaxing didn't look at her after speaking, seeing that the snow had almost been cleared, he went straight to the house, leaving Aunt Ba shivering sadly in the cold wind.

After Yao Jiaxing entered, he went to order a few dishes first, and then went up to the third floor. When he returned to his room, he saw Shu Ran doing needlework, holding what seemed to be his underwear.

He smiled and went to sit beside her, and said softly: "If you are not feeling well, just rest, this clothes can be worn casually, don't worry about sewing."

Shu Ran bit off the silk thread, held up the patched clothes and looked at the light. Although she couldn't make complete clothes, she could still do mending.

"It's not that difficult. I've patched it up and you'll be more comfortable to wear. There's no such condition on the road. After returning to our house, I will ask the embroiderer to make a few more sets for you. When you go to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, you will have to practice." , It takes a lot of clothes, so it is enough to prepare more, and there is no shortage of shoes and socks, you have to prepare sweat-absorbing and comfortable ones."

Listening to her rambling words, Yao Jiaxing unconsciously showed a smile on his face. He liked to see her worrying and busying herself. Shu Ran saw that he was in a daze without speaking, so she stood up and folded her clothes neatly.

"When will you go down for dinner? You have to call your sisters to go down together." Shu Ran said without turning her head.

Only then did Yao Jiaxing come back to his senses, and said in a warm voice: "If you are hungry, let's go down now, the dishes are probably almost ready."

Shu Ran turned around and went out. As soon as she opened the door, the door of the room next door also opened. It was Sister Ning who led Sister Xin out. Seeing Shu Ran, Sister Ning said anxiously: "Mother, Sister Xin is hungry. Now, when can we have dinner?"

Shu Ran hurried to Sister Xin's side, covered her small hands and said, "Mother will take you to dinner now, and you don't need to wear Sister Ning's cap, go down and get some air."

To be honest, she has neglected her two daughters a lot since she had Brother Bo, especially Sister Xin who is in the middle. Sister Ning, the eldest sister, takes care of everything on weekdays. When she needs to worry Rarely, now Shu Ran also realizes that this is probably not going to work. After going to the capital, she has to take care of Sister Xin with her.

There are not many guests in the inn, except for them, there are only people at Boss Fang's table. Naturally, Boss Fang will not bring his wife with him when he goes out on a business trip, so it is cheaper for the eighth aunt. If people arrive first, they will eat first.

The Eighth Aunt was serving Boss Fang attentively, her gentle and carefree appearance was the same as when she was serving Master Yao, the two were flirting, when they looked up, they saw Yao Jiaxing's expressionless face.

Aunt Ba's expression changed, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into the ground, Shu Ran covered Sister Xin's eyes in time, for fear that she would be polluted by some dirty things.

Sister Ning naturally turned her back and didn't look at it. Yao Jiaxing bowed politely to Boss Fang. Boss Fang was also a cheerful person. He immediately stood up. Yao Jiaxing said softly: "My two children are also eating here. , Boss Fang, please be careful with your words and deeds."

That boss also has a son and a daughter, so he naturally understood what he meant, and he also consciously said straightforwardly: "Master Yao, don't worry, I will send her back to the room, if you don't mind, we can have a drink. "

Yao Jiaxing quickly shook his head and refused, "Boss Fang, you are welcome. It is inconvenient for me to accompany my wife and daughter. You can do whatever you want."

After all, regardless of whether he was happy or not, he took the children and headed towards the window seat. The eighth aunt seemed to have nothing to do with her, and she ate and drank on her own. Said: "Go away, didn't you hear what you said just now? Go back to your room and have dinner, don't be an eyesore here."

Aunt Ba was taken aback by this disgusting look, she didn't dare to say anything, she stood up and went upstairs, Boss Fang looked kind, but had a bad temper, and liked to hit people when things went wrong, she After suffering, naturally he didn't want to confront him.

Shu Ran has been paying attention to the movement at their table, and she was quite surprised to see the proud eighth aunt leaving the table and going upstairs without returning, and said to Yao Jiaxing beside her:
"That woman has the most thoughts, but now she looks cute, and I don't know how the boss trains her."

Yao Jiaxing picked up a chopstick and put it into her bowl, and said affectionately: "Don't meddle in other people's business, women are not easy-going lamps, and men are not good at dealing with each other. One by one is cunning, let them compete with each other. Just tear it up, let's not get contaminated."

Shu Ran didn't expect him to make such an evaluation. Although she was a little surprised, she didn't say much. She picked up the vegetables in the bowl and ate them. There is no shortage of meat these days on the road.

Apart from the stewed meat jerky that had been prepared earlier, the rest were the prey they hunted. There was no condition to cook them properly on the road, and most of them were roasted and eaten directly.

At the beginning, I ate fresh vegetables, but after a long time, I got tired of it. It was really uncomfortable not to eat any vegetables. Shu Ran also regretted not preparing some more dehydrated dried vegetables.

The two sisters were probably too greedy. The food in this inn might not taste very good, but they ate very happily, which made Shu Ran feel distressed.

After dinner, sister Ning wanted to go out to play in the snow again. Although Caohe Town also had snow, it would not have such a thick snow. At least sister Ning had never seen it before at this age, so she was ready to move up.

Now that I have a stable residence, I don’t have to worry about being trapped by snow on the road. Naturally, I am interested in enjoying the snow. The husband and wife took their children to the backyard of the inn. The backyard is huge, and no one else is playing in the snow. After all, adults don't have the innocence of children.

Sister Ning was very happy to see the whiteness. She grabbed the snow on the ground and kneaded it into balls, and threw it at Sister Xin unceremoniously. She fought back angrily, but her hands were very small, and the snow balls she kneaded were not big, and the lethality was not strong, and she didn't feel much when it hit Ning Jie'er.

Shu Ran was so happy watching that she couldn't stand it any longer. She couldn't help but bent down and squeezed a big snow ball for her little daughter. Sister Xin jumped up happily when she got it in her hand, and threw it at her sister without hesitation. go.

It hit Sister Ning on the back all of a sudden, the snow ball scattered, and even her neck got snow, Bing shuddered, and shouted unhappily: "Mother, you are biased, help Sister Xin to bully me , Dad also has to come and help me, it's only fair."

After finishing speaking, she went to pull Yao Jiaxing to stand with her, and the family of four faced each other in twos, Shu Ran became impatient.

"Are you father and daughter trying to bully the younger? It's not fair, Yunshan come and join us."

Yunshan was already ready to move, if it wasn't for the presence of the masters, she would have joined in. Hearing the call, she rushed up to help knead the snow balls.

Although Yao Jiaxing also participated in it, he was very measured, the snow balls were all smashed at innocuous places, and he controlled the force, so it didn't hurt too much.

I haven't exercised for a long time, and I was a little out of breath after playing for a while. My hands, which were still stiff from the cold at first, are now steaming hot. Shu Ran was worried that her daughters would catch the cold alternately, so she hurriedly said:
"Just play for a while, it's time to go back to the room and take a hot bath."

Hearing what my mother said, Ning sister felt that her back was a little itchy. The most inconvenient thing along the way was to take a bath. Their female relatives basically had to wipe it with a hot towel. How could they have the conditions to wash it? How can I miss the opportunity to take a bath.

"Did mother tell the maid to boil water?" Sister Ning asked while removing the snow from her bun, Shu Ran nodded with a smile:
"I'll give you an order as soon as I'm settled down. The hot water is probably ready by now. Let's go back to the room."

Although they haven't enjoyed themselves yet, it is obvious that the temptation to take a hot bath is greater. The two sisters left the snow ball and walked into the house without hesitation.

She didn't meet anyone along the way, and it was only when Shu Ran returned to the house that she realized that she was no longer living in a room by herself, and there was such a big man sticking around here.

Before she could speak, Yao Jiaxing said consciously: "I'll go to the next room to see Brother Bo. If he wakes up, I'll take him out for a walk. You can take a bath at ease."

This man is so caring, Shu Ran narrowed her eyes with a smile, and said thoughtfully: "Don't let Brother Bai freeze up, and you can't take him to see the snow, just play for a while."

Yao Jiaxing obediently nodded in agreement, but he didn't go out immediately, but waited for the servants to bring hot water and made arrangements for Shu Ran before leaving. Before leaving, he didn't forget to ask Yunshan to take care of him.

When her whole body was soaked in warm water, Shu Ran sighed comfortably. She would stink if she didn't take a bath. Fortunately, they found an inn to stay in. The road ahead is still long, and they don't know what is waiting for them , Now I can feel comfortable for a while, maybe for a while.

On the other side, Song Dachun rushed to the capital before the heavy snowfall. He rode alone, wearing a coir raincoat and cape, covered in snow all over his body. When he arrived at the gate of King Wei's mansion, even the guards guarding the gate didn't recognize him. If it wasn't for him If you take off the straw hat in advance, you may not be allowed to enter the door.

Although his body is covered with snow, the stewed meat in his bag is well protected. It is thanks to the stewed meat during the journey, otherwise he would have starved. As soon as he returned to the mansion, he first went to greet the king of Wei .

Because of the snow, King Wei didn't go out today, he was reading the brochures in the study at the moment, seeing Song Dachun standing in front of him, he said without raising his head: "You will take the opportunity to be lazy and go to Caohe Town for a few more days to make yourself comfortable? "

Please have a good time, Song Dachun is quite casual, he sniffed and said: "The life in Caohe Town is really comfortable, if only I didn't rush so hard, the servant's body is going to freeze."

King Wei put the booklet on the desk, then raised his head to look at him, he was indeed a little thinner, and asked:
"How is the Shu family? But is it really as the investigation said? Is it worthy of Yao Xing?"

Song Dachun said with a playful smile: "The person Wang Ye likes, how can it be bad, it is only better than the rumors, he is brave, resourceful and virtuous, and he is very good at cooking. Yao Xing can have such a wife to spend the rest of his life with. It's a blessing, but it's a pity that Yao Jiawang is also unlucky, he lost his wife and children."

Hearing this was extremely uncomfortable to King Wei's ears. He said displeased: "Are you blaming me for being cruel? This is their own choice. I didn't interfere too much. Yao Jiawang's ability is far inferior to Yao Xing's. This king needs a general who can take charge of the capital's forces in an upright manner, and only Yao Xing can do it, you know that."

Song Dachun was not afraid of King Wei's tone, he smiled, "Your Majesty, don't get excited, I know your difficulties, but Yao Xing still has a knot in his heart, if you want to appease his grievances now, you have to take good care of him After making some plans, his wife and children can't wait too long."

King Wei nodded, he sighed, and said sadly: "At this point, we have no way out. This king has no way of retreating without you. You all came here in bloody wind with me. You should know Whether Yao Xing blames me or blames me for my difficulties, I don't regret it."

Song Dachun frowned and smiled bitterly, "This is the end of the matter, so we can only go on like this. The daughter brought up by the Shu family is very good, and the servant recognizes her as a righteous daughter. In the future, I will have to plan a good marriage for her. It depends on Yao Xingneng. Where did you go?"

Wei Wang's eyes flashed, "I remember that the girl in his family is only in her teens, she is just the right age for the young people in the house. If she is really good, I don't mind being in-laws with Yao Xing." .”

Song Dachun's smile faltered, and he said with some uncertainty: "My lord, don't be joking. After all, the Yao family's family background is too low, I'm afraid they won't be worthy of the little masters."

King Wei sneered, "Do you think it would be difficult for Yao Xing to become a Marquis and a Prime Minister? His daughter is good enough to match this king's son. It depends on how outstanding she is. If she is good enough, she can also be a concubine." Got it."

Song Dachun lowered his head and his thoughts were complicated. He didn't know whether the prince was probing or telling the truth, and he didn't dare to speak freely. Everyone said that being with a king is like being with a tiger. If he is a little careless, he is afraid that he will die Know.

Seeing that he didn't speak, King Wei smiled and said: "You don't have to think too much, this king really has this intention, then the Shu family is really good, and Yao Xing is also capable, this king doesn't think that marrying a woman should put family background on the table. Number one, if you have time, teach that girl well."

Song Dachun said helplessly: "My lord, don't talk nonsense like that, you may not be able to accept it if you agree with the mistresses in the backyard. If this word gets out, then the girl will have a hard time after arriving in the capital, so you can't hurt her." she."

After all, Song Dachun is still very protective of his adopted daughter, King Wei shook his head and laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not confused, I just told you a little in advance, it depends on whether this will come true Yao Xing's ability depends on that girl's intelligence, and I will explain a few more words to the princess, and I always have to take care of her, and the rest depends on Shu's own ability."

Song Dachun didn't think it would be a good choice to marry into Prince Wei's mansion, but King Wei wanted to be tied to Yao Xing wholeheartedly, so he had no choice but to make more adequate preparations for Sister Ning within his own ability.
