Hou Fu Di Daughter-in-Law

Chapter 40 Red Hydrangea

Xie Jinghuai does not have the pragmatic concept of mate selection of local youths. He values ​​feelings and wants to find a partner who is like him.Parents have a good relationship, and the days after marriage are harmonious and beautiful.

"Some families in the capital have a small population. If they know that the Hu family girl is good at giving birth, they will definitely send a matchmaker to come to the door with gifts. Hu Liuniang and her sisters are really powerful, and the children they give birth are all supported. No wonder the Hu family girl is sought after."

Jiang Chenqi knew that giving birth to a woman was like going through hell, because many women lost their lives by giving birth.Being good at giving birth can make people with fewer people happy.

"I think the Hu family girl is popular, not only because she is good at giving birth, but also because she has a gentle personality and a smooth way of doing things. County magistrate Hu didn't hate her because his wife gave birth to six daughters in a row. Instead, he cultivated his daughter with heart. He is a good father .”

Having seen many fathers who neglected their daughters, Jiang Chenqi admired men who valued their daughters.Her father is very good to his daughter and is a good father, but it is a pity that God has no eyes to let the Chu family suffer.

Jiang Yuyou found the two with a yellow lantern, and heard them talking about the Hu family, he said full of praise: "The county magistrate Hu's family is easy to get along with, Liuniang is at the age to get married, throwing hydrangea is a tradition of the magistrate Hu's family. The girls of the Hu clan are good at giving birth, they have special physiques, they originally lived in seclusion deep in the mountains and forests, but eight years ago they went down the mountain one after another to integrate into the life under the mountains."

Sensitive to the number eight, Jiang Chenqi's face was solemn, and then she thought that she was thinking too much.Perhaps the Hu family felt that life in the deep mountains was lonely, so they walked down the mountain one after another.

Lin Feng suddenly exclaimed, pointed to the moon lantern not far away and said: "You look at the big crescent moon lantern, or the blue moon."

He raised his head and saw a crescent moon lantern hanging in mid-air.The turquoise blue moon exudes soft light, evoking Jiang Chenqi's dusty memories.

Suddenly, I remembered my mother's name. My mother's name was Biyue. Handy skillfully knew how to make moon lanterns and delicious cakes, unlike other noble ladies.

Thinking of her mother's surname, Jiang Chenqi clenched her fists, remembering that her mother's surname was Hu.

My mother has no relatives in the capital, and it is said that she is from a small place. What is the relationship between my mother and the Hu family.

Xie Jinghuai patted Jiang Chenqi's shoulder lightly, and asked in a concerned tone: "What's wrong with you suddenly in a daze, although the Biyue Lantern is rare, it's not to the point of being dumbfounded."

Smiling and saying that she was fine, Jiang Chenqi pretended to be relaxed and said: "Let's take a closer look, I think the Biyue lantern is very beautiful, such a big lantern is not easy to make."

Walking a few hundred steps along the street, the group arrived at the door of County Magistrate Hu's house.

When Jiang Chenqi learned that the house in front of her was the residence of County Magistrate Hu, she had thousands of thoughts in her heart.With two outsiders, Xie Jinghuai and Lin Feng, she didn't reveal her thoughts.

After returning to the residence, Jiang Chenqi took Jiang Yuyou and whispered her guess, "I don't know where my mother's hometown is, and I have never heard her mention it. I only found out my mother's surname by chance. My mother is in good health and gave birth to five children for my father. children, I am the youngest daughter."

At that time, there was a saying that although the general's wife was born in a low-born family, it was better to have a good child, and she was a good daughter-in-law if she added a child to the general's mansion.

The mother has a gentle personality and is quick to do things. She is a good helper to the father, and she has not been despised by her husband's family because of her family background.

Jiang Yuyou understood what Jiang Chenqi meant, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, let's join in the fun. When Liu Niang finishes throwing the hydrangea, I'll take you to her. I know Liu Niang, and the ginseng chicken soup she makes is delicious. If you want to know anything, feel free Inquire, maybe my aunt is from the Hu family, so it's good if you can find relatives."

With the anxiety of looking for her relatives, Jiang Chenqi fell into a dreamland.

In the dream, I went back to the Chu family, but unfortunately I couldn't see the faces of the family members clearly in the dream.They asked how Jiang Chenqi was doing these years, and Jiang Chenqi in the dream shed tears.

When she woke up the next day, Jiang Chenqi raised her sleeves and wiped her eyes, then put on her coat silently.

Xie Jinghuai was cleaning the yard with a broom, and greeted Jiang Chenqi with a smile when she went out, "I asked Lin Feng to buy breakfast, and he said that the door of Hu's house was very lively, so we went there after breakfast, and there was nowhere to stand when we were late. I heard that people in the mountains also Come join in the fun, everyone is wondering who will get Hu Liuniang."

Putting away her sad mood, Jiang Chenqi cheered up and went out, when she heard loud voices.

Near the home of County Magistrate Hu, more and more people need to work hard to move forward.

Xie Jinghuai caringly protected Jiang Chenqi, opened his arms to protect Jiang Chenqi in his arms, and selectively forgot that Jiang Chenqi's martial arts were not inferior to him.

The crowd was noisy and the people talked about it, and some people cheered up their son loudly, asking him to fight for the sixth son-in-law of County Magistrate Hu.

The young servant from the Hu family came to the stage and rang the gong, and greeted the elders of the villagers with cupped hands, "You are polite, Miss Six chooses a husband-in-law today, and those who receive the hydrangea ball can spend more time with Miss Six. The two are destined to tie the knot, if not It's good to be friends, our Sixth Miss is a reliable friend."

This statement is interesting, it does not depend on throwing hydrangea to determine life.Jiang Chenqi felt that the young servant who was talking looked festive, and when he smiled, he showed two dimples, which made people feel good.

Hu Liuniang strode onto the stage, her eyes swept over all kinds of people in the audience.When his eyes passed Jiang Chenqi, he paused for a moment.

After changing his appearance, Commander Jiang became an ordinary-looking young man, and his aloofness remained unchanged.

As the commander of the Beiya imperial army, let Commander Jiang have official authority and stand out from the crowd like a chicken.

Hu Liuniang showed a hearty smile, raised the hydrangea ball and threw it out.

The red hydrangea flew straight towards it, and Jiang Chenqi, the running spirit, subconsciously reached out to catch it. Hearing the groans, she came back to her senses, and smiled helplessly at Xie Jinghuai, "My luck is good. I received Miss Hu's hydrangea and got to spend more time with Hu Liuniang." Opportunity."

The round-faced young man pushed aside the crowd and walked over, gave a thumbs up and said enviously: "This brother is really lucky, take this opportunity well, don't miss Hu Liuniang."

Only a wry smile showed her depressed mood, Jiang Chenqi was annoyed at the distraction just now, why did she pick up the hydrangea ball.

The Hu family's servant happily invited the group into the Hu's house, and Hu Liuniang stood in the lobby waiting for the destined person.

Returning the hydrangea to Miss Hu, Jiang Chenqi said apologetically, "I'm sorry that I took the hydrangea. For some reason, I have no idea of ​​starting a family for the time being. Please forgive me, Miss Hu."

Hu Liuniang smiled, so that the predestined people don't have to blame themselves, "Throw the hydrangea to win a good fortune, and don't rely on the hydrangea to determine the lifelong event, so you don't have to apologize. Are you in a bad mood, this is the sweet-scented osmanthus cake I made, please taste it."

Hu Liuniang is not a popular girl in the capital, she has a round figure and a kind smile, but Jiang Chenqi has a good impression of her.

Picking up the cake and eating it, Jiang Chenqi savored it carefully, showing a bright smile, "It's a delicious sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Miss Hu's hands are really skillful. The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus is a bit special, can you tell me where the sweet-scented osmanthus is?"

Xie Jinghuai gritted his teeth secretly, dissatisfied with Hu Liuniang who attracted Commander Jiang's attention.
