Chapter 13 Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight

Hua Rong looked confused, but he had no intention of eating the food he put to his mouth, and it just froze in mid-air.

"Mother-in-law, what are you talking about?"

Xu Ziying, who was catching up, looked at the half-eaten medicinal meal in Hua Rong's hand, and his face darkened.

"Huarong, where did this medicinal diet come from?"

"My mother gave it to me, saying it was for health."

Hua Rong answered truthfully, as if waking up from a dream, he put the contents of the spoon into his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed, "It's quite delicious, thank you, mother-in-law."

Mrs. Hua was so angry that her body was shaking, but before she got angry, Xu Ziying pulled her out in time.

"Mom, how long are you going to make trouble?"

Xu Ziying pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly.

"I didn't care what little tricks you made before, but it's different now."

"Huarong has reconnected with the Hua family. The importance of the Hua family cannot be underestimated. If you are found doing something, we will all have to go around without food."

"Also, you should never be interested in my wife! She was injured when she was a student. This time, Xiaorou was already very difficult, and you still hurt her with that kind of hurtful medicine!"

Old lady Xu stamped her feet angrily.

"How many times do I have to tell you that I only drugged Hua Rong, not Wan Niang!"

Xu Ziying's eyes were disappointed, "Huarong himself was taking that medicine, obviously without knowing it, and the medicine that Wan Niang was taking, and the doctor found out that it contained medicine, was exactly the same as your prescription..."

His voice stopped abruptly.

"Forget it, there's no point in arguing."

He threw up his sleeves and left.

There was a rift between mother and son.

After listening to Hua Yi's narration of the whole quarrel between mother and son, Hua Rong swallowed the last mouthful of the wrapped medicinal meal with a smile on her face, pressed the handkerchief lightly on the corner of her lips, and murmured, "What a dog bites dog."

……

Although there was a rift between mother and son, they were blood relatives after all, and nothing could be seen on the surface. Only Hua Rong, an insider, could see the excitement from their subtle actions.

After seeing enough, he took his daughter and set off to the academy to find his eldest son Xu Yannan, along with his younger son Xu Yanqing.

Xu Yanqing was young. As soon as he arrived at the academy, he rushed to the garden to catch crickets.

Hua Rong also indulged him, and after asking a few servants to follow him, he took Xu Zhiyan to wait outside Xu Yannan's classroom.

After some distance, Xu Zhiyan met her eldest brother for the first time.

As written in the book, the eldest brother had leg problems and could only rely on a wheelchair to walk for many years, which prevented him from taking the imperial examination. However, he never gave up on his studies and even made up his mind to study in the academy alone. He looks even more gentle and gentle.

[Brother, you look good! I must help my eldest brother in the future, not only to prevent him from being killed, but also to heal his legs and let him take part in the imperial examination! 】

Xu Zhiyan was confident that she could cure Xu Yannan's leg, so when Xu Yannan came to the scene with the wheelchair, she actively moved her hands and feet towards him.

Hua Rong was happy to see his children living in harmony, so he put Xu Zhiyan on Xu Yannan's lap without hesitation.

"This is my sister, give me a hug."

younger sister?

Xu Yannan looked down at the silly smiling baby on his lap, and after a long while he slowly reached out to hug her.

So soft.     It turns out that this is how my sister feels.

"Zhiyan, I'm sorry, I couldn't attend your full moon ceremony, but I prepared a gift for you."

The gift is a pair of fine jade bells.

Small and exquisite.

When Xu Zhiyan was young, she could wear it on a red string and use it as a necklace or bracelet. When she grows up, she can modify it and use it as earrings. They are all very beautiful.

She reached out and grabbed a bell, which was small and sweet.

【It looks good, I like it! 】

Although Xu Yannan was in college, he had few friends around him because of his emotions. Over time, his body felt colder and colder, and he looked like an immortal who could not eat the fireworks of the world.

But looking at his smiling sister in his arms, he suddenly felt that there was still a beautiful place in the world.

Xu Zhiyan didn't know how many things were going through Xu Yannan's mind in just a short moment. She only knew that the way her eldest brother looked at her was many times softer than at the beginning.

Contentedly, she continued chatting with her handsome eldest brother. She was still searching in the book for the prescription for the medicine that caused his leg ailment. She gave up because she couldn't remember it, and planned to rescue him when the time came.

Hua Rong stood on the edge, looking at the scene of the two brothers and sisters, and listening to the words that accidentally came out of her daughter's heart to save her brother, she felt very happy in her heart.

It was precisely because of this relief that she stayed in the academy much longer than planned. By the time she completely left the academy, it was already afternoon.

If this point is neither good nor bad, there is no point in going back, so Hua Rong took Xu Zhiyan to a jewelry store that she had visited most before to look at things.

This place is worthy of being a place where she often goes. As soon as she entered, she took a fancy to a button-down shirt. Unfortunately, there was another person who fell in love with this button-down shirt.

But before the other person could speak, the boss took out the zipper, packed it up and handed it to Xiaoye.

"When I saw this press-front piece when I purchased it, my first thought was that it is suitable for you, Mrs. Xu. Today you have taken a liking to it, which is considered a success. Because of this fate, I will give you a discount."

He tapped the abacus, then turned the abacus to Hua Rong.

She felt the price was right and paid on the spot.

When he saw the amount and another competitor of Hua Rong paying calmly, malice flashed in his eyes.

"Mrs. Xu is really grand. She wins people's love as soon as she takes action."

Xu Zhiyan's little head turned with the sound, and she was surprised when she saw who it was.

"It's the wife from outside the house. She must know my mother, and she must be talking about my mother on purpose now."

Hua Rong didn't expect to encounter Xu Ziying's outer room as soon as she went out. Thinking of what happened because of this man, she felt itchy with hatred, but her face held the air of a young lady and the mistress of the house, and she didn't even look at it. give her.

Of course, there was no need for her to deal with the late wife, so the boss spoke up first.

"Madam, you've been looking at this zipper here for a long time. We, the waiters, are drooling over it and you haven't bought it. Even if you think about it, you don't intend to buy it. And Mrs. Xu is serious about buying things. , We who do business are, of course, mainly engaged in business.”

There was a bit of embarrassment on the bride's face.

She didn't buy it sincerely, she had no money!
  It costs 300 taels of silver for each collar. How can she get it?
  The late wife glared at Hua Rong and the boss hatefully, turned around and left in embarrassment. After returning, she became more and more angry as she thought about it. She sat down on the bed with force and swept the ornaments on the bedside table to the ground with her hands.

The ornament rolled to the feet of Xu Ziying, who had just entered the house. He picked it up and put it aside.

"Who made our late girl angry? Oh, my face is so angry that I'm so sorry."

The late wife curled her lips and snuggled into his arms.

"Yinglang, I...I'm fine."
