Xiaoqiao Liushui Renjia

Chapter 191

"These are two pots of wintersweet flowers that the old man gave to my aunt!" The people from the Ye Mansion came over and said with a smile after paying respects to Xiaoqiao.

Xiaoqiao laughed and said, "Father's planting flowers are getting better and better!" Even the potted wintersweet is so good.

"Yes, the old lady agreed. The old man was afraid that my aunt and grandma would be bored at this time, so I specially sent it here." There are no flowers and plants in winter, and Ye Zhu was afraid that his daughter would be bored, so he asked someone to send them. The wintersweet, now has buds, is about to open, and there is a faint fragrance.

Xiaoqiao thought, if he knew that his father had the talent of growing flowers when he was in Yejia Village, would he be able to make a fortune by growing flowers in the first place?
But this is just thinking about it. The eldest brother and the second brother only want to let the old man enjoy the happiness, and they will never plant flowers for the purpose of making money. Now let the old man grow flowers, just because he is afraid that he will be bored, so I found a job for him Son.

Only when people have sustenance can they feel good and live a long life.In the past, my father regarded farming as his lifelong career. When he arrived in Kang County, he could only regard the garden as his career without the fields that could be reached with his legs. My relatives also think this is nothing serious. The former emperor still learns from others to farm, so what's wrong with planting flowers in his own home?
As soon as Qi Yan came back, he also saw the wintersweet flowers, and said with a smile: "It must have been sent by my father-in-law! I have to treat my father-in-law to a drink."

Xiaoqiao said: "Don't, last time, you and dad went drinking, which made dad sleep all day." Ye Zhu himself doesn't know how to drink, but his little son-in-law invited him to drink, he was happy, so he said She drank too much, slept all day, and made Xiaoqiao's mother very angry. Of course, she didn't blame Qi Yan. After all, Qi Yan drank more than Ye Zhu, and she was not the kind of person who would vent her anger on others.

Qi Yan felt in his heart that although his wife's life was not as good as he was when he was a child, he still had the love of his parents. Thinking of his father in the provincial capital, his brows frowned.

Xiaoqiao supported his forehead and asked, "What's not happy about it?"

Qi Yan said: "There is news from the provincial capital that the old man's condition is getting worse."

Xiaoqiao knew that even though the old man Qi was shameless, he was her husband's biological father after all. This biological father's illness got worse, and he didn't know how he felt.

Qi Yan didn't want the old man Qi to pass away so soon. Although he hated this father very much, he was born and raised him after all, and the most important thing was that if the old man passed away, then the eldest brother and the others would want Ding You, Ding You for three years Ah, I don't know if the eldest brother is ready. If he is ready, it will be very easy to recover after three years. If he is not ready, it will be a bit difficult.

Mr. Qi is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in the capital. This is a fat job. As long as he has a little worry at that time, others will definitely grab him. Mr. Qi has been a high-ranking official for so many years. There must be a lot, but Master Qi also said that when Qi Tianci is done, he will go back to his hometown, but Qi Tianci has to be admitted to Jinshi before he can become an official, so he can be promoted quickly.

And Qi Yan himself doesn't plan to take the Jinshi exam anymore, he feels that he is living a good life now, if he is really going to be an official, that is to restrain him.

However, Qi Yan was relieved by the letter sent by Grand Master Qi along with the annual gift, that is, he was worried that the elder brother over there had already made arrangements, and even if Grand Master Qi passed away, it would not have any impact.

And now the situation in the court is unclear, if they can retreat at this time, it will be good for their Qi family. In a few years, Qi Tianci will become more mature, but the situation will be clear at that time, even if he is admitted to Jinshi, there is no risk up.

Xiaoqiao doesn't understand these big things, and Qi Yan won't say these things to worry her. Seeing that the new year is approaching, and Xiaoqiao's body is getting heavier and heavier, he also found out clearly that twins are easy to die early. Born, so a midwife was prepared early, even the doctor invited a midwife to live at home, and Mrs. Qi also sent a midwife. Although there are also here, both of them stayed. After all, Qi The heart of the old lady.

As for the annual ceremony, at this time Qi Yan will not allow Xiaoqiao to be busy. He will do it himself. Although it is said that a big man is not suitable for it, the rules are dead, and he is not afraid of what others say, let alone his own family. People don't talk nonsense.

Because he was afraid that others would say that he was in charge of the inner house, it would lose face and make his wife suffer, so he would rather be told by others.

From the winter month, Yuqian Hutong began to receive New Year’s gifts from various families, and then returned the gifts. It was not easy until the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, because at this time, the New Year’s gifts will be brought forward, and basically in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. It was delivered. At that time, every family had to prepare New Year’s goods and cook New Year’s dishes. They were all busy. If they gave New Year’s gifts at that time, wouldn’t it cause trouble for others?There are even some relatives who are far away from each other, and they start to give New Year gifts to everyone in autumn. After a month or two on the road, it will be winter by then.

Just like a side branch of the Qi Mansion, their family works in the south, so things are delivered very early, and it’s already October when they arrive at Xiaoqiao, and Xiaoqiao and the others have to send over the prepared annual gifts as soon as possible , strive to arrive before the year.

It's the twelfth lunar month, and the weather is getting colder. Fortunately, there are earth dragons in this house, and it is not as cold as the small bridge. In other words, the earth dragon is a good thing. It is not like burning charcoal, which makes people afraid of carbon monoxide poisoning. The rooms below the ground, and the houses Xiaoqiao and Qi Yan live in are all connected to the ground below. As long as the fire is on, the house will be as warm as spring. Xiaoqiao has also studied the earth dragon. It seems that the bottom is connected, and then there is a ventilated place outside, but I really don't understand the specifics.

Now I don’t have the energy to figure it out. The wisdom of people at this time is really amazing. Don’t look down on people because you think you know more than others.

On the second day after eating Laba porridge, Aunt Ye brought a letter saying that Xiaoqiao's aunt died of illness on the night of Laba.

This aunt is the biological sister of Mr. Ye Ye Dahu and Ye Dalong. She is the aunt who saved Aunt Ye after decades ago when the Guo family wanted to sell Aunt Ye for money.

I also found the current good marriage for Aunt Ye, so Aunt Ye has a deep affection for her. After so many years, she did not go back to her natal family, so she took this aunt's house as her natal family.

Over the years, Xiaoqiao's family has recovered, and he has been walking around with this aunt very frequently. Xiaoqiao still remembers seeing this aunt smiling kindly a few months ago. Why did she pass away suddenly?

"The old man is getting old, let's say it's the past." Wu sighed.

Seeing Aunt Ye and Second Aunt Ye's sad looks, Wu also felt uncomfortable. This aunt can be said to be the reborn parents of their two aunts. If there is no such aunt, I am afraid that Aunt Ye and Second Aunt Ye will be sold to nowhere. up.

In comparison, the old man is really not worthy of being a father.

"You are pregnant, so you can't go to the mourning hall, lest you run into a collision, just let your son-in-law go and worship." Wu said to Xiaoqiao.

Everyone is going to see her off for the last time at the aunt's side, but the old man and the grandpa, they are the elder brothers of the auntie, they are older than the auntie, so they don't need to see the auntie off, and the old man doesn't want to go there, because his relationship with this girl is because of Aunt Ye has become very bad.

When Qi Yan came back from worship, he gave Xiaoqiao a wooden box, "This is what my aunt told me before she left, and it's the one for you."

Xiaoqiao looked at the wooden box, although it wasn't very luxurious, but her aunt's kindness was rare. My aunt's family was a middle-class family, and they were not as rich as Aunt Ye and the others, but at the end of the day, she gave Xiaoqiao and the others every one of them. There is one thing for children, of course, this is for the descendants of the two wives in front of the old man, and it is also for the grandchildren's generation, and the rest are for the grandchildren's generation, and my aunt can't remember clearly.

And none of Guo's children was born.

Aunt Ye was very sad for a while after her aunt's funeral was over. Ever since her own mother passed away, this aunt was the one who treated her best, but now she is gone, alas.

Second Aunt Ye was also very sad, but she asked: "Elder Sister, why does Auntie give us things? Auntie's children are not angry at all?" Ordinarily, this mother's things should be given to her own children, but this Auntie I gave it back to them. The relationship between Second Aunt Ye and this aunt was not as deep as that between elder sister and her, so I asked Aunt Ye.

Aunt Ye said: "You know how our mother passed away, right?"

Second Aunt Ye nodded, "Of course I know, I still feel that my mother is not worth it at all, and I worked so hard. In the end, our father didn't even ask her for justice, just because the other party gave him money. Don't pursue it!"

When the tree was put down, the mothers of Aunt Ye and Aunt Ye were accidentally crushed to death by another person who put the tree next to them. With his money, he got rid of this matter. It is estimated that in Old Man Ye's heart, if he yelled about the matter, his wife would not be able to survive. Besides, he didn't do it on purpose. Now that he has lost money, he can recover some losses. .But they forgot that the person who died was none other than Aunt Ye and her own mother, a living person. They had the right to know the truth about their own mother's death, but a few years ago, what they knew was that their own mother let her go The tree was accidentally smashed down, until they knew the truth later, the so-called father-daughter relationship was gone, not to mention marrying a Guo family in the end, and wanted to sell them!

"But what does this have to do with aunt?" Second Aunt Ye asked.

"At the beginning, my mother worked so hard. First, she wanted to make life better for the family. Second, when my aunt gave birth to her cousin, she was weak. She thought that she could give her a little money to support her health, but then something happened. Son, my aunt always thought that she had harmed our mother, so she couldn't bear it all the time, so she tried to make us live better. Later, the Guo family wanted to sell me for a good price. At that time, my aunt The family is doing well, so I helped me solve it, and this time before I died, I gave us this room because of my mother." Aunt Ye said.

"It turns out that's the case!" Second Aunt Ye said, "Compared to those who have no conscience, Auntie is really the best, but why doesn't this good person live long?" My father and Mrs. Guo were both young, but they died earlier than them, which is unfair.

And this aunt gave things to the elder brother and the others because she thought the people on the elder brother's side were pretty good, so she gave them together. As for Ye Gen and Ye Huier, she didn't give anything directly, and I don't know if they were angry. Jumping, Second Aunt Ye really wanted to see how angry they were!
