Ninefold Purple

The grandmother observed Tuo Niang for a period of time, seeing that Tuo Niang was honest and honest, she liked her a little, and really wanted to make a good marriage for her.So when he had nothing to do, he took Dou Zhao around the village, and the young man of the right age would inevitably look at him and ask a few more questions. After a few days, people in the village said that the seventh master of the Dou family asked his grandmother to find him An honest and reliable entourage, when grandmother and Dou Zhao go out again, they will meet people who bring their son with them from time to time.

Grandma couldn't laugh or cry, but she couldn't say why, so she kept explaining "There is no such thing, there is no such thing".

Everyone naturally didn't believe it.

At this time, Dou Ming met Zhao Liangbi.

The Zhao family and the Cui family are relatives, but she has never figured out what it is. [

That day, they were having dinner in the yard. Zhao Liangbi's father walked into the yard slowly with his sleeves folded and his body hunched over. Eight-year-old Zhao Liangbi followed behind his father with his head down.

"His aunt," Zhao Liangbi's father stood there far away, with a slightly courteous smile on his dark and thin face, "How about you eat?" Zhao Liangbi squatted at the door.

The grandmother hurriedly put down the bowl, called "Third Brother", and greeted him enthusiastically: "Have you eaten yet? Let's add some!" Then she called the maid to bring the stool and add more bowls and chopsticks.

Zhao Liangbi's father waved his hands again and again: "We've already eaten, we've already eaten!" Then he looked at Dou Zhao and said, "Is this Miss Fourth? She looks really white, like someone on a New Year's painting."

Grandmother chuckled and ordered the servant girl to serve tea.

Zhao Liangbi's father yelled at Zhao Liangbi: "You dog, what are you doing squatting there? Hurry up and kowtow to Fourth Miss and your aunt!"

Zhao Liangbi walked over with a sullen face.

"This is?" Grandma looked at Zhao Liangbi's father in confusion.

"His aunt." Zhao Liangbi's father said with a smug smile, "Half-year-old, poor old man. You know, my mother-in-law. There are 360 ​​days in a year, 360 days in bed, the spot in the crop field The harvest is not enough for her to take medicine. There are leftover dogs. We really can’t feed. I heard that Dou Qiye is looking for a follower..." He looked at his grandmother earnestly.

Grandma froze.

Dou Zhao was also stunned.

In the previous life, Zhao Liangbi only appeared when she was ten years old.At that time, Zhao Liangbi's mother died of illness, Zhao Liangbi's father decided to go to Fujian to do carpentry with others, and entrusted the 13-year-old Zhao Liangbi to his grandmother, and Zhao Liangbi's nine-year-old sister was given away as a child bride... reason.He showed up at the Grange five years early.

Will fate be changed because of this?

Dou Zhao thought about it.

I heard Zhao Liangbi's father hesitantly saying: "I also know that Dou Qiye must look down on Gousheng like this, who has no looks and no talent. But since we are relatives, you can help Let's just say something..."

Before he could say a word, Zhao Liangbi, who was standing awkwardly by the side, said loudly: "Father, how many times have I told you that the more relatives you have, the less likely your aunt will introduce someone to Dou's house?" , why can't you listen..."

Zhao Liangbi's father kicked him very angrily: "The adults are talking, and the children just stay away." Then he changed his flattering smile and said to his grandmother: "Auntie, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. I know You are afraid that someone will say that you have taken advantage of the Dou family..."

"Auntie," Zhao Liangbi, who was kicked aside, interrupted his father loudly, "My father can't support me, so why don't you leave me in the farm? I can do any job, as long as you give me a bowl of food."

The father glared at his son, and the son glared at his father unabashedly. [

Grandma laughed.Said: "Third Brother, if you can trust me, just give the child to me. It is definitely not acceptable to work as an errand in the Dou family, but you can eat and wear warm clothes."

What Zhao Liangbi's father wanted to say, Zhao Liangbi already said "yes" loudly.

The grandmother cut the mess quickly, arranged for Zhao Liangbi and his son to go down to rest, and then told Honggu: "Third brother and the others must have not had dinner, and Shougu is here with me. I was afraid that she would think the third brother and the others were dirty, so I didn't dare to keep them for dinner. You go to the kitchen and make a big bowl of sliced ​​meat noodles for them, there should be more slices of meat, [-]% fat and [-]% thin, and the thick ones will be placed on the noodles, understand?"

Hong Gu nodded with a smile and went to the kitchen.

Early the next morning, Zhao Liangbi's father went home with a basket of pancakes given by his grandmother. Zhao Liangbi swept the front and back of the yard without anyone asking, put down the broom, and went to mow the grass and feed the horses. .

Dou Zhao was practicing calligraphy in the room, but he was thinking of Cui Shisan.

In the matter office, only the Gongqing's House has such a place, which is in charge of the entertainment of various governments and the usual reception.If it is an official family, the staff of the official family will be in charge, and the staff of the official family is mostly a failed scholar or a scholar... If she did not marry into the Jining Marquis in this life, what is the future of Cui Shisan?

In the previous life, Cui Shisan was the backbone of the Cui family.

If Cui Shisan ends up staying in his hometown and becoming an obscure farmer, how will the future of the Cui family change?

Do you want to help Cui Shisan?

How can I help him?

Dou Zhao bowed his head in thought.

Zhao Liangbi's sweet voice came from outside: "Sister, this teapot is a bit heavy, shall I lift it in for you?"

"Look at your hands, they are so dirty." It was Haitang who spoke, "If you carry this teapot in, can our lady still drink it?"

"Then, then I'll wash my hands." Zhao Liangbi stomped away.

When Dou Zhao saw him again, the cracks in his nails were clean, and his whole body became refreshed.

He quickly helped Haitang and the others clean up the house.

Haitang asked him: "Have you swept the yard clean?"

"Clean up!"

"Has the foal been fed?"

"Hey!"

"Has the grass been mowed?" [

"Cut."

All these things became Zhao Liangbi's responsibility.

He picked up Dou Zhao's bad handwriting, looked back at it, and said enviously: "Miss Si's handwriting is so beautiful!"

Haitang and the others covered their mouths and smiled: "You know each other?"

"No, I don't know you." Zhao Liangbi, who was so thick-skinned that he could smile with you whatever you said, blushed for the first time.

Dou Zhao's heart skipped a beat.Ask him: "Do you want to be literate?"

His face lit up: "Yes, of course." He said.His expression darkened again, "However, my father has no money."

"Then I'll teach you how to read!" Dou Zhao smiled, "If you learn well, I'll tell grandma to send you to school."

Zhao Liangbi grabbed Dou Zhao's sleeve: "Miss Si, you must keep your word."

Dou Zhao pursed his lips and smiled.

I don't know what will happen in the future.But starting from literacy, starting from reading, will always be easier than the road in the previous life!

Since then, Zhao Liangbi has been writing on the veranda of the main house every day after finishing his work.

After my grandmother found out, she asked someone to go to Zhending City to pick up a basket or two of red tracing paper, cut it out by herself, and put it under the shrine in the main room. Whoever wants to use it.Whoever takes it.

No wonder the people at the Grange thanked Grandma for her kindness.

Dou Zhao thought carefully about what his grandmother had done.

The 22nd is coming soon.

Dou Zhao was the same as usual, he got up early in the morning and walked around the vegetable garden with his grandmother, picked some melons and fruits back, took a bath, and had breakfast.Start practicing calligraphy.

Although the Dou’s family in the west of Zhending County did not put on any lights and festive decorations, everyone in the family put on new clothes, which made people feel refreshed.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mrs. Ji went to the second wife's room, and saw the second wife was still leaning on the kang listening to the big maid reading "The Romance of the Five Heroes", and said with a smile: "You still have to stay safe. I'm afraid After a delay, I changed my clothes early."

The second wife looked up at her with a smile, and said: "You are of the same generation, and the West Mansion is sparsely populated. I have to join in the fun. I am old and a widow. It is not auspicious for people to have a good life. I won't go I'm here." Then he ordered the big maid, "Go and take out the red gold inlaid sapphire hairpin from my box and put it in the box. Please bring it to Mrs. Six. It's my congratulatory gift." The last sentence was directed at Ji Ji. Shi said, "As for Sister Ming, let her stay with me, and it won't be too late to pick up Sister Ming when Wan Wan returns to Kyoto."

In this way, wouldn't Shougu and Mingjie not have to kowtow and offer tea to Mrs. Wang?

Seeing that the second wife's tone was downplaying and her eyes were as cold as ice, Ji knew that the second wife was determined to give Wang Yingxue a blow, so she didn't want to get involved, so she took the box with a smile and went out.

The eldest lady over there had already dressed up, and was about to count the meeting gifts for Wang Yingxue, when she heard that the confidant maid said that the second husband would not go, and said something like "widow". For the hairpin ring, only Dongzhuzhuhua was left as a meeting gift, and the eldest maid entrusted the second wife to take it with her.

The third master Hengshibang and the third wife were entrusted by Dou Duo to help take care of the family affairs. When they saw the female relatives of the East Mansion coming, they rushed to greet them.

The second wife who took the lead smiled and said, "Everyone who can come has come, and those who can't come have also brought a meeting gift."

The third wife is a very astute person, with just a glance, she can tell which people are not here, so she doesn't ask much, she smiles and goes to the flower hall with everyone, while the male guests sit down in the main hall in front.

When the auspicious time came, Wang Yingxue wore a golden phoenix with pearls and silk on her head, and a red auspicious dress. She was radiantly supported by the third wife, a Quanfu, and Dou Shiying worshiped the ancestors. After drinking for three rounds, everyone moved to the flower hall to sit down , Dou Shiying and Wang Yingxue offered tea and recognized their relatives.Afterwards, Wang Yingxue was helped back to Qixia Courtyard, while Dou Shiying and others went to Heshou Hall.

The second wife and others just sat in the big flower hall drinking tea and chatting.

The third wife had no choice but to look at the sixth wife as if asking for help.

It stands to reason that these female relatives should go to the newcomer's room to talk, which can be regarded as warming the newcomer's house.

Mrs. Six pretended not to see it.

She didn't want to show off.

The third wife had no choice but to call the second sister-in-law: "Let's go and see Mrs. Wang."

The second sister-in-law was a follower of the crowd, and she agreed with a smile, and the third and fifth sister-in-law went to Qixia courtyard with a few decent nuns.

At this time, the second wife said: "Why is Mrs. Wang still living in Qixia Courtyard?"

"It's what Qi Ye meant." The maid who had Xi Dou wanting to curry favor with the Second Wife replied, "It is said that there are still things belonging to the Seventh Grandma and the Fourth Miss in the main room, and the Fourth Miss has gone to the farm to serve the sick. It will be too late to accept it, and we will talk about it when Miss Fourth comes back in a few days."

The second wife said "oh", and waited for the third wife to come back, excused that there was no one serving Mrs. Tai, and went back home.
