Chapter 71

Xie Dahua looked at each other in disbelief, tears streaming from his eyes.

"You don't believe it, do you? If you don't believe me, you can ask now." Xie Dazhuang cocked his legs carelessly, his words were full of confidence.

Xie Dahua bit her lip and did not speak, and rushed out the door with an aggrieved expression on her face.

This inn was originally the cheapest place, and the five of them squeezed into a room, and Wang Meiya had to go to the back kitchen to help out during the day, eating and drinking by the way.

So Xie Dahua found Wang Meiya without any effort.

"What's the matter?" Wang Meiya frowned impatiently as she frowned impatiently at the lard on her fingers. One or two came to the capital and caused trouble. It's not a big deal to cry and cry when nothing happens.

Xie Dahua lowered his head and poured some lard dregs into the bowl for A Niang, buckling his straw sandals nervously with his toes.

"Mother, when shall we go back?"

Wang Meiya was furious when she heard the words. Originally, she was waiting to be the wife of an official, but she ended up reduced to this point.

Thinking of the huge contrast, Wang Meiya squeezed Xie Dahua's ears with her palms: "You worthless thing, you deserve to suffer all your life!"

"Isn't it good to go back? Why do you have to force these things, my brother can no longer take the imperial examination!" Xie Dahua was crying, and tried to free his ear from Wang Meiya's hands.

"You lose money, who said that!" Wang Meiya slapped Xie Dahua on the left and right cheeks, regardless of the presence of others.

The huge force made Xie Dahua stagger a few steps, and his cheeks suddenly swelled up.

"Let me tell you, Da Zhuang must be promising, you useless thing, if you talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth off..."

The following words became more and more unpleasant, Xie Dahua gave Wang Meiya a hard push when she wasn't paying attention.

"Then just pretend you never gave birth to my daughter!"

Wang Meiya bumped into the stove behind her in astonishment, and before she could yell, the person in front of her was gone.

The still lively streets and alleys are full of hawkers coming and going, and the muddy water on the ground has not been cleaned up. Occasionally, a few young ladies and young masters step over the stone slabs carefully with their hems lifted.

Xie Dahua was a bit out of place in this scene, she raised her head uneasily, she walked too far, so far that she couldn't find her way back.

In the gloomy night of a certain night, she also wanted to persuade herself to admit defeat, so she followed her brother's advice. If she was lucky, she could be kept by the Xie family. Even if she was unlucky, how bad could it be?But she can't do it, will she be resold like a commodity for the rest of her life?

"Girl, how long have you been standing? Do you want to buy it or not?" The old man drooped his face and pushed the rice noodles he had set up at the stall inside.

Xie Dahua came back to her senses, and looked down at the bowls of white vermicelli in front of her, with emerald green scallions and bits of meat flakes floating on top.

She couldn't help swallowing.

"Hey, what are you doing? Even though I'm old, you can eat the overlord's meal!" The old man was disturbed by the other party's actions, so he simply stuffed the money jar into his arms and was ready to pull the cart and run away at any time.

Xie Dahua caught a glimpse of the sign hanging on the old man's car - accepting apprentices.

"Can I learn how to make rice noodles with you?" Xie Dahua carefully grabbed the old man's car, she really didn't know where to go, she just wanted a place to eat.

It just so happens that she has a sensitive nose and cooks at home every day, so it shouldn't be difficult to learn.

The old man's eyes widened. This girl's brain is not working well, so he won't accept it!
"Look at the other side."

Xie Dahua turned his head suspiciously when he heard the words, but there was nothing, and then turned around to find that the old man had slipped away with a car behind him.

For a while, she stood silently watching the old man move forward at a slow pace, and finally sighed softly.

The setting sun sprinkled on the surface of the river, and the sparkling water surface was occasionally paddled by small boats. The tall reeds were bent down by the wind, shaking their waists in various ways.

A carriage passed by slowly, a small arm protruded from a small sedan chair, and then a round face.

Chen Chunjiao looked away boredly, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, she was tired of looking at it.

"Jiang Sese, today we are going to Shuicheng. The environment there is not as good as the capital city, and I don't know if I can adapt." Chen Chunjiao complained and played with a small jade bracelet in her hand, lying on the carriage without image, letting the two The servant girl beat her leg.

Jiang Sesu opened the curtain and looked at the scene of receding outside, feeling a little emotional in her heart, that she would be able to leave the capital one day to see the scenery outside.

Because Xie Chengyun is not going to take office immediately, and will officially go to the Imperial Academy in the middle of this month, Madam Xie took this opportunity to take them back to Madam Xie's natal home for a few days.

Mrs. Xie's natal family originally lived in the capital, but because the old lady was in poor health, they moved back to their hometown in Shuicheng a few years ago.

With the constantly shaking bells, accompanied by the sound of the waves, Jiang Sesur curiously looked at the simple folk customs outside. This place is completely different from the bustling and lively capital of the capital. The paths intersect with each other. It looks extremely difficult to walk, but there are different types Such fun.

Several waterways circled the city and finally converged at the ferry. There were gray and white houses sitting in rows, and even buffaloes were being led along the street.

"Hey, you guys are here. I've been waiting here for a long time, just worried that you won't be able to find a place on the way."

Mrs. Wang, who came to meet Xie's family, stepped forward with a smile, and took Mrs. Xie's hand affectionately.

In the past, Madam Wang had a good relationship with Madam Xie when she did not come to Shuicheng with the Wang family.

"I haven't been back for many years. Now that Chengyun has won the first prize, I came here specially because I wanted to make my mother and the elderly happy." Mrs. Xie was quite emotional, and pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

While talking, a servant quickly opened the door curtain and led everyone in. Several elders were talking about the old days in front, and Jiang Sesu and Chen Chunjiao walked behind, looking at the house from the corner of their eyes.

Different from the capital where every inch of land is expensive, Wang's family in Shuicheng can be regarded as a wealthy party. This house is huge, and there are no fewer than three pools built in it.

The maids in plain clothes served tea and cakes lightly, using the best leaves available, and even the tea sets were shiny and reflective.

Jiang Sesur looked up and looked at the old lady Wang who was sitting on the top.

The Wang family was transferred back to the capital because the old man Wang did a good job as an official in Shuicheng, and they have settled down in the capital since then.After Mrs. Xie married Mrs. Xie as the only daughter of the old lady, the two families often moved around.

It's a pity that the old lady is getting older, and she has become more and more impatient with the dryness and coldness of the capital in the past few years. It happened that no one in the Wang family was an official in the capital, so she brought the whole family back to Shuicheng.
