Chapter 52
Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Xu Jun and Xu Jie didn't know what to say. Before they came, their father had told them not to mention this matter if the old lady didn't ask.

But I didn't expect that the old lady didn't mention it now, but Xu Shiqiu, who their brothers were going to help, could mention it later.

Now that they have decided to work with Xu Shiqiu in the future, they can't lie to him from the beginning.

Just let them tell the truth, but some can't say it.

Seeing the reaction of the two brothers, Mrs. Xu sighed and was about to speak, when Xu Jie suddenly spoke first: "There are also a few brothers from the uncle's family who also want to come with us.

It's just that there are many concerns in their family, and it's not just the fathers who can make decisions in the family, so there is some delay.

When we came, some of them agreed that they would bring their family and join them after the grain was harvested this summer and this year's grain was paid in the tenant's fields. "

What Xu Jie would say was indeed the truth, but Mrs. Xu didn't have much hope for this matter.

She has always understood the reason why people take tea to cool down, not to mention that her husband has passed away for nine years now.

If those people don't come, she can't blame them.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu hurriedly looked down at Xu Jun and Xu Jie and said, "It's good to have your brothers around. What's more, Shi Qiu didn't need so many people around him at the beginning." After saying this, Xu The old lady even looked down at Xu Shiqiu to wink.

Xu Shiqiu reacted very quickly. After receiving the hint from Mrs. Xu, he immediately looked at Xu Jun and Xu Jie and said, "That's true. Although I have many plans, they can't be accomplished overnight. They all need to be completed slowly."

After saying this, Xu Shiqiu looked at Xu Jun and Xu Jie who were frowning and thinking after hearing what he said, and continued after thinking for a while: "What's more, the second brother and the third brother have nephews at home, some small things can also exercise them , let them do it.”

Xu Shiqiu knew that people's hearts were hard to buy, so as long as the brothers of Uncle Xu's family were sincere for him, he would naturally treat them sincerely.

He would naturally watch and promote the heirs in their family, and if there were suitable ones, he would naturally arrange a future for them.

Thinking of this, Xu Shiqiu looked at Xu Jun and Xu Jie again and said, "It happens that in a few days the lady's cousin will come to learn how to read and calculate accounts. At that time, the brothers and nephews and nieces at home can also come to learn together."

Xu Shiqiu looked at Xu Jun and Xu Jie just after they had finished speaking. Xu Jun, who had an eldest daughter, immediately looked at Xu Shiqiu in surprise and said, "Can my sister Li also learn to read and settle accounts?"

Xu Jun's tone was full of excitement and anticipation. Xu Shiqiu didn't realize who Xu Jun was referring to as "Sister Li". Then he nodded affirmatively and said: "Of course it is possible.

It turned out that the lady's cousin followed me to learn. I will find an old gentleman these days, and he will teach you for half a day, and I will teach you for half a day.

The old man is unwilling to teach women, but I am willing, and my wife has always followed me to learn. "

Xu Shiqiu made it clear that he didn't promise to persuade the old man to teach girls, but he said he would teach himself.

It was precisely because Xu Shiqiu said so that both Xu Jun and Xu Jie believed that what he said was the truth at this time.

Seeing that they were discussing learning to read and settle accounts, Dong Shu hurriedly reached out and pulled Xu Shiqiu's sleeve, and then said softly, "Master, the two brothers have worked hard all the way, so they should go to rest."

Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu who had just finished speaking. Xu Shiqiu, who wanted to continue talking before, was taken aback for a moment, and then she looked at Xu Jun and Xu Jie with a little shame and said, "Blame me. I had a good conversation with the two brothers for a while, but unexpectedly It’s because I forgot that the two elder brothers have just arrived, and they haven’t had time to wash and rest in the future.”

After saying this, Xu Shiqiu saw Xu Jun and Xu Jie shaking their heads at him hurriedly, and continued: "I will order the servant to take the two elder brothers to wash and rest, and I will have a drink with the two elder brothers in the evening."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Xu Jun and Xu Jie could only suppress their excitement and obey Xu Shiqiu's arrangement.

What's more, they really needed to wash up and rest, so after Xu Shiqiu's words fell, they directly bowed to Mrs. Xu and retreated, and then walked towards Tingfengyuan with Cuihua who led the way.

After Xu Jun and Xu Jie left, the old lady Xu put away the smile on her face, looked at Xu Shiqiu at the bottom, and said: "Although only a few brothers from your second uncle Xu's family came, but their males Many, and you will have no less helpers in the future."

Hearing that mother was trying to comfort him, Xu Shiqiu hurriedly looked at Mrs. Xu and said, "Mother, you don't need to worry. There are not many people who come to help me, and I know it well."

Xu Shiqiu looked at Mrs. Xu as soon as she finished speaking, then the old lady looked at him and sighed, "Your elder brother and second elder brother both have helpers, but you don't. Now you only start doing things when you are in your twenties, mother." I'm afraid that after mother closes her eyes, she won't be able to explain to your father."

The old lady Xu is indeed not young. According to her estimation, she will definitely have no problem living for another three years, but now she is afraid that Xu Shiqiu will not have achieved something after three years of hard work.

It's not that Mrs. Xu doesn't believe in her son's ability, but that Xu Shiqiu's fate is too strange. She is worried that Xu Shiqiu's bad luck will affect what he will do in the future.

Xu Shiqiu understood what his mother was worried about, looked at his mother, thought for a long time, Xu Shiqiu finally said: "Mother, I just give myself a chance to try. I will also be a man who will raise a wife and children in the future. I can't always rely on Let my father and the family business you left me eat together and wait to die.

If I really can't get rid of bad luck, then I have worked hard after all, and I won't live with regrets. "Speaking of this, Xu Shiqiu paused for a moment before continuing: "What's more, since I married a lady, my bad luck has been suppressed, so far as long as she is here, I will not affect others.

I believe that as long as my wife is by my side in the future, I will be able to continue to suppress bad luck. "

Xu Shiqiu's words were sincere. Hearing his words, not only Mrs. Xu, but even Dong Shu were moved by Xu Shiqiu's determination.

She stretched out her hand to hold Xu Shiqiu's hand, and passed the warmth to Xu Shiqiu through the palm of her hand, and then said: "Sir, no matter what, I will be with you."

As soon as Dong Shu's words fell, Xu Shiqiu immediately ignored Mrs. Xu's presence, raised her hand to her lips and kissed it lightly, and then said, "Don't worry, lady, I will definitely let you live a good life. "

Dong Shu didn't expect Xu Shiqiu to do such a thing in front of her mother-in-law. She blushed slightly and took a peek at her mother-in-law. Seeing that she didn't mean to blame them, she looked at Xu Shiqiu in embarrassment and said: " Xianggong, why are you kissing me like this?"

Sensing the nervousness of the little lady and seeing her faint fear, Xu Shiqiu immediately raised the hands they held tightly, and kissed the back of her hand again regardless of her struggle.

After seeing the little lady's wide-open crescent eyes showing an unbelievable expression, Xu Shiqiu looked at her and replied seriously: "I just want to kiss you."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's explanation, Dong Shu was still in a daze, but the old lady Xu who was sitting at the top couldn't listen anymore, she just felt her teeth were going to be sore.

But Mrs. Xu was also happy to see her son and daughter-in-law getting along well.

She didn't disturb the two of them, but got up while Dong Shu was still in a daze, and left from the hall, leaving only Dong Shu with blushing cheeks and Xu Shiqiu who had noticed her movements when she got up.

Xu Shiqiu had noticed when the old lady Xu was about to leave, but he was still staring at Dong Shu, so he didn't get up to send his mother away.

When his mother had just left, Xu Shiqiu, who had wanted to hug the little lady for a long time, immediately pulled Dong Shu up, pulled her from the chair beside him, and hugged her tightly.

Where did Dong Shu think that Xu Shiqiu would do such a thing, she was very nervous when Xu Shiqiu pulled her up, and hurriedly turned to look at her mother-in-law.

Seeing that her mother-in-law wasn't here, she breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next moment, Xu Shiqiu was hugging her tightly, and his lips just fell on her ear.

Dong Shu never thought that Xu Shiqiu would do such a thing. Although the two of them had done something closer than this, not only was it not on their own territory, but there were servants outside. My mother-in-law was still sitting here just now.

Thinking of this, Dong Shu couldn't help being shy.

After Xu Shiqiu watched Dong Shu's shameful ears turn red, he put away his playful thoughts just now, and said to Dong Shu seriously: "Lady, I can't guarantee that the bad luck I was born with that day will not be good. will affect you.

So I can only do more things when you can suppress my bad luck, and earn more money for you. "

Even if you can't suppress my bad luck in the future, when I send you away, I can give you something more so that you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future.

Xu Shiqiu didn't say the latter sentence, but just thought about it in his heart.

But Dong Shu still heard something wrong from his tone.

Dong Shu didn't understand why Xianggong insisted that he suppressed his bad luck. Although she had heard the rumors about him before, she didn't believe it.

So when Xu Shiqiu looked at her with reluctant eyes, she subconsciously hugged Xu Shiqiu's neck tightly, kissed his lips quickly from the side, and said, "Master, since I'm married to you, then we We should have been together forever." After saying this, Dong Shu frowned and thought for a while, then remembered what Xu Yanzhu had said.

She looked at Xu Shiqiu, and said in a very serious tone, "Master, I heard Yan Zhu say something called 'life in the same quilt and death in the same coffin', I want to be like you."

Dong Shu spoke seriously, and Xu Shiqiu, who heard her words, was also stunned for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

He really didn't expect that the little lady would know this allusion, and even used it accurately.

Seeing the little lady's serious expression, Xu Shiqiu could only sigh helplessly in the end, and then hugged her tightly into his arms.

There is such a little lady who loves him wholeheartedly, how can he be willing to have an accident with her.
