lucky star girl

Chapter 58
Dong Shu's eyes on Ye Shuo were not hidden. When she looked at Ye Shuo for the fourth time, Ye Shuo, who could pretend not to notice that the third aunt was looking at her, finally couldn't hold back, looked at Dong Shu and said: "Third aunt, you If you want to ask me something, just ask me directly, there is no need to secretly look at me like this."

"How do you talk?" Xu Shiqiu opened his mouth after Ye Shuo's words fell, looked at the little lady's cheeks flushed because of Ye Shuo's words, and hurriedly said to him: "Your third aunt probably saw you for the first time. , seeing that you are handsome, I took a few more glances."

"Really? Third Aunt really thinks I'm handsome?" Ye Shuo puffed up his chest proudly like a little rooster when he heard Xu Shiqiu's words, "I said that for a character like Third Uncle, he must marry a very good woman .Sure enough, the third aunt has a good eye and can see the fact that I am handsome."

Dong Shu's cheeks were flushed from Ye Shuo's first words, until she heard what Ye Shuo said just now, she looked at him and said, "Shuo'er, you look good." After saying this, Dong Shu Seeing that Ye Shuo was getting more and more complacent, Shu hurriedly added: "It's just that it's not as good as your third uncle."

"I knew it!" After Ye Shuo said this angrily and helplessly, seeing the third aunt looked at the third uncle with eyes of admiration, and the third uncle looked at the third aunt with love in his eyes, he hurriedly raised his hand to cover Rubbing his chest, he said, "I'm so pitiful. I watched my father look at my mother like this every day in the capital, but I didn't expect to see such eyes when I was out of Beijing.

Hey, I'm only 13 years old this year, even if I get married at 15, there are still two years left, and I don't know if I can marry the woman I like.

Most importantly, my elder brother doesn't seem to have any intention of getting married, but if my elder brother doesn't marry, my mother will definitely not choose a wife for me. "

As soon as Ye Shuo finished speaking, Xu Shiqiu raised his hand and patted the back of his head lightly.

"You are quite courageous. You dare to tease your elders. At such a young age, you are thinking about getting married. If you are not successful, you will be successful. Is it possible that you are going to spend the rest of your life like this?" Xu Shiqiu looked at Ye Shuo after saying this, and saw After pretending not to understand with a smirk, he shook his head and asked, "How is Xuan'er?"

"Xuan'er, it's still the same as before. I fell ill again a year ago, and my mother took care of her for half a month before recovering." When it came to his younger brother's physical condition, Ye Shuo's tone was no longer the same as when he was playing around. Casually, "However, Xuan'er's body has been fine since the beginning of spring, but my mother is worried. She originally planned to come to see her grandmother, but now she can only let me come."

After saying these serious words, Ye Shuo smiled again, and then continued: "But this time the eldest brother still wants to grab the chance to go out with me, he also wants to come to visit his grandmother, the third uncle and the third aunt, but whoever called him the eldest brother? It's the second child, but finally Daddy let me come." Saying this, Ye Shuo also showed a smug expression on his face.

After Xu Shiqiu heard Ye Shuo's words, he first glanced at him to frighten off the complacency on his face, and then sighed: "Hey, I just hope that when Xuan'er gets older, he will be less sick." In this way, My sister can also have the opportunity to go out for a walk.

For nine years, Ye Xuan has been sick two or three times a year, and because of her guilt, her sister has been guarding him every step of the way.

"Third uncle, you don't need to worry too much. Before I came, I heard from my elder brother that he found an ancient prescription, which is very good for warming and nourishing the body. After the imperial doctor has tried it, he can take care of Xuan'er's body." Seeing Xu Shiqiu, Ye Shuo seemed a little Sad, quickly put away the playful expression on his face, and spoke seriously.

He didn't even know that he had slipped his tongue when he mentioned the imperial physician.

Dong Shu looked up and said, she didn't ask, but reacted to something in her heart instantly.

Ye Shuo's surname is Ye, and Ye is the country's surname.

Because she finally realized this matter, Dong Shu didn't know how to speak for a while, so she just sat on the sidelines and listened to Ye Shuo talking to her husband, until the mule cart returned to Xiahe Village, Ye Shuo went to see Mrs. Xu Shiqiu held hands and went back to Shihuan Courtyard to rest and eat.

"Why didn't the lady suddenly say anything just now?" Xu Shiqiu naturally noticed that something was wrong with Dong Shu just now. He didn't have a chance to ask with Ye Shuo before, and it was only the two of them, so he naturally asked directly.

"I just thought of one thing suddenly." After Dong Shu said this, she thought for a moment before continuing: "At first I just thought that Shuo'er was not like you, nor like the eldest brother and the second brother, but after thinking about it carefully, his last name is Ye is the surname of the country."

"I forgot to tell you about this." Xu Shiqiu didn't expect Dong Shu to think so much. Seeing Dong Shu raised her head slightly and waited for her, she hurriedly continued: "My sister is the concubine of the fifth prince. Back then she When she got married, the royal family asked her to bring a dowry concubine.

But our Xu family has no concubines, and it happened that the fiancé of the cousin left by the aunt who died early died. The cousin was forced by the stepmother to seek death, so the mother asked the father to pick up the cousin and let the cousin be the dowry concubine of the sister.

Originally, the cousin just stayed in her brother-in-law's backyard, and she was very happy.She has a soft temper, and with her sister protecting her, nothing will happen to her.

It was only because the brother-in-law only had his sister in his heart and devoted himself to pampering his sister. Two years after his sister gave birth to the eldest son Ye Huan, he entered the palace and was scolded by his biological mother, Concubine De, for his lack of heirs, so the brother-in-law, at the insistence of his sister, favored his cousin. Until my cousin gave birth to Shuo'er.

But my cousin's health has been bad since she was a child. In order to give birth to Shuo'er, she sacrificed half her life.Shuo'er went there when she was less than one year old. According to her elder sister, her cousin kept saying she was sorry before she left, but her elder sister felt that she did not protect her cousin well.

Because of her sister's guilt, after her cousin left, Shuo'er was raised by her sister as her own. "

"I see." After listening to Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu fully understood what was going on.

The reason why Ye Shuo is not like the Xu family is because there is no Xu family blood in his body.

"Miss, although everyone in the family knows about this, including Shuo'er herself, no one mentioned it. Mother always thought that the reason why my cousin would die as early as my aunt was because of giving birth to Ye Shuo. And because my cousin would give birth to Ye Shuo, it was also Because the elder sister was scolded by the concubine De in front of everyone in the harem, in order to prevent the concubine De from giving her brother-in-law another woman, the reason for helping her sister to keep her favorite.

Shuo'er also cried a lot when he was told the truth to his face when he was a child. Later, he refused to learn literature or martial arts, and only wanted to play around every day and be an ordinary royal heir. "

Xu Shiqiu still remembers his anger and shock when he heard that his cousin was pregnant when he was in the backyard of Xu's family in Beijing.

He clearly remembered that his brother-in-law said that he only liked his sister, and would only have her as a woman, but his brother-in-law still spoiled other women!
Xu Shiqiu remembered that he was very angry and hated his cousin very much.

It wasn't until later when I heard mother and father quarreling that Concubine De didn't care about Xu family's face, scolded her sister in front of everyone in the harem, and forced her to take a concubine for her brother-in-law.

And when the cousin gave birth to Ye Huan, she lost half of her life, and after she didn't live for a year, she felt sorry for her cousin again.

Xu Shiqiu always remembered the scene when he saw his cousin for the first time, and after she fell down due to his influence, instead of being angry, she comforted him.

Although Dong Shu had heard Xu Yanzhu mention the incidents in the back houses of these wealthy families before, she never thought that the people around her would encounter such incidents.

She turned her head quickly, but she was thinking in her heart, if she is the only husband-in-law in the future, will her mother-in-law be dissatisfied?
"What are you thinking?" When Xu Shiqiu saw Dong Shu's expression, he knew that she was thinking wildly again, "Don't worry, sister will be forced because she married into the royal family, and elder brother will have a bastard because sister-in-law is from the royal family. Father has only mother in his life, and mother has already said that she will not put women in our brother's backyard."

Xu Shiqiu watched Dong Shu say this, and after seeing her expression gradually becoming more natural, he continued jokingly: "What's more, it's not like you don't know about my situation. If other women approach alone Nothing will happen to me, I'm afraid I'll marry someone else long ago."

Xu Shiqiu said it casually, and Dong Shu who heard his words also realized what he meant after being slightly taken aback.

"Then, if I can't have a child, won't you marry another woman?" Dong Shu was a little nervous. After seeing Xu Shiqiu ask this question, she looked at Xu Shiqiu seriously and waited for his answer.

"How could my lady have such conjectures?" Xu Shiqiu didn't expect that after so long, the little lady would still be worried about such things, "My husband said a long time ago that you alone are enough in this life. It's not suitable for me. Even if you haven't given birth, that's the wife I, Xu Shiqiu Mingmei, is marrying, so why would I not want you." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu raised Dong Shu's hand and put it on her heart, letting her feel her heartbeat at the moment .

"Sister-in-law is indeed the best. I understand what he means, and I won't ask these questions again." Dong Shu had a joyful smile on her face, and after seeing Xu Shiqiu's happy smile when she heard what she said, she hurriedly said : "Sanggong, what do you want for lunch, I'll do it right away."

Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu and just finished speaking, the servants in Mrs. Xu's yard brought Mrs. Xu's orders to invite Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu to the main courtyard for dinner.

When Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu arrived at the main courtyard, Ye Shuo seemed to be talking about something interesting for Mrs. Xu and Xu Yanzhu.

Seeing the smile on Xu Yanzhu's face, Dong Shu has a lot of affection for Ye Shuo.

When Ye Shuo saw Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu appearing, he immediately got up and took two steps towards them, "Third uncle, tell grandma, did third aunt think I'm handsome just now?" Looking at Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu expectantly.

Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu looked at each other, then Xu Shiqiu looked at him and shook his head and said, "Your third aunt never said that." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu saw that Ye Shuo still wanted to continue talking, so he hurriedly asked again: " Shuo'er, you come to Xiahe Village, does your mother have a letter for you to bring?"

As soon as Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Ye Shuo raised his hand and patted his forehead, "Oh, how did I forget about this!"
