Powerful Minister Buddha-like Sweet Wife - Chapter 49
As soon as the officer left, Wei Hanzhou’s house was soon filled with people.
Because it is a happy event to recruit people in the exam, Wei Laosan not only paid for the official staff, but also included the happy money. I also prepared copper plates for the people who came to watch, not many, one for each person.
This is a bitter Liu Tangxi and others.
There are so many people at home, they have to prepare tea and water to entertain guests.
Of course, Liu Tangxi is probably the only one who feels bitter.
Needless to say, Li’s smile has not disappeared, and Zhang’s Zhou is also smiling.
Wei Hanzhou made a move. Their family was different from before, and they improved a step further, and their status in the village later became even more detached. When the son goes to school in the future, things will naturally be different for his daughter to marry. What they see before them are benefits that they could not even think of before.
Fuyao Shulan was very happy to see the crowds and the delicious food.
Zhang and Zhou saw Liu Tangxi boiling water in the kitchen and urged her to go outside to entertain guests.
In the final analysis, the person in Zhongju is Wei Hanzhou, who is also Liu Tangxi’s sire. Liu Tangxi is the person who has benefited the most and is also a more important person.
However, Liu Tangxi would rather boil water in the kitchen than join in the excitement.
“I won’t go. Most of our relatives don’t know me, and I don’t know how to say anything. Moreover, I am not a local, and I can’t catch up with what they say. It’s better to go.”
“This is a good thing, you go quickly.” Zhang urged.
But Liu Tangxi still refused.
Having said this several times, seeing Liu Tangxi like this, Zhang and Zhou also knew that she really didn’t like to join in the fun. They thought that she never liked to go with them to relatives, so they stopped persuading them.
In this way, the other members of the third Wei family greeted the guests outside, and Liu Tangxi burnt tea in the kitchen all day long.
However, she herself didn’t think there was anything wrong.
That night, the patriarch also came over and asked if there was a banquet and the village paid for it.
When Wei Hanzhou passed the exam for talents, their family didn’t entertain everyone. There is no other reason, just because there is no money. And Wei Lao San and others are not the ones who like to show off, so they passed by in a low-key manner.
Now that he has been hit, it is different from the previous talents.
Wei Lao San was a little moved after hearing this.
After all, the family now has a lot of money. Moreover, the money for his son to prepare for the exam was not used, so he saved a lot of money.
However, this matter was rejected by Wei Hanzhou.
“Thank you, uncle. However, my nephew is going to study tomorrow, preparing for the next spring test, I am afraid that there will be no time. It is better to wait until the test next year.”
For Wei Hanzhou, recruiting people in the exam was not a big deal, nor was it difficult, everything seemed to be expected.
Since he already has a goal in his heart, he naturally wants to move towards the goal.
However, some small achievements have been made, which is not worthy of celebration and pride.
The patriarch said a few more words, but Wei Hanzhou insisted. Moreover, he is now Xie Yuan, and his words have weight, and the patriarch is gradually persuaded by him.
After sending off the patriarch, Wei Lao San had dinner at home.
That night, the family cooked six dishes, and the family was very happy.
The only cool ones are Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi.
Liu Tangxi had been busy all day, and was sleepy.
After the meal was over, everyone talked and finally dissolved. She hurried back to the house, washed herself, and lay down on the bed.
Because Wei Hanzhou was going to Fucheng tomorrow, he said a few more words to Wei Lao San and his wife in private.
When he came back, he found that Liu Tangxi was asleep.
Wei Hanzhou smiled helplessly and went to wash.
After washing, blow out the oil lamp and lie down on the bed.
The moment he lay down, Liu Tangxi suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Wei Hanzhou, and muttered: “You are finally back.”
“Yeah.” Wei Hanzhou replied.
Then, Liu Tangxi closed his eyes again and went back to sleep.
Clinker, but Wei Hanzhou suddenly had a speech today. He looked at her sleeping face and asked: “Is the lady unhappy to raise people in the exam for her husband?”
Seeing this question asked, Liu Tangxi ran away for two points in a jealousy.
“How can I be unhappy, I am very happy.”
“Oh? Really? Why didn’t my husband see it.”
Is this not going to sleep? Liu Tangxi retorted displeasedly: “I didn’t see that you are happy either, you are not happy, why do you have to ask me to be happy?”
Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou chuckled lightly.
Liu Tangxi was too sleepy, too lazy to talk to him, and said, “Okay, go to bed, isn’t it just that you passed the exam, Juren? What’s so good about you, I’ll talk about it when you get the top pick next year.”
Wei Hanzhou was taken aback, turned his head and glanced at Liu Tangxi, who was impatient on his face, and smiled.
“Well, what the lady said is quite true. She was taught for her husband.” After speaking, Wei Hanzhou closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Wei Hanzhou was about to go to Fucheng.
Before leaving, Wei Hanzhou said to Liu Tangxi: “For the husband, Xu can only come back during the Chinese New Year.”
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi’s heart sank slightly, and he blurted out: “So long?”
Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi, his eyes were full of meaning, and said, “Yeah.”
Looking at this look, Liu Tangxi’s heartbeat was slightly chaotic, and she forced her composure, saying: “You are studying outside, don’t worry about home, I will take good care of your parents. You don’t have to copy books every day to make money. You live at home now. It’s getting better and better, and there is no need to worry about money matters. Just prepare for next year’s test.”
“Okay, remember it for your husband.”
“Then you… pay attention to your body, don’t work too hard, take a good rest.”
“Okay.” Wei Hanzhou responded again, “Does the lady have anything else to confess?”
Liu Tangxi pursed her lips and said, “No… no more.”
“Well, I’m leaving for my husband.” After that, Wei Hanzhou stared at Liu Tangxi again, then turned and left.
Wei Hanzhou is gone.
Although the family does not plan to host a banquet, if relatives and friends come to congratulate, they will also entertain.
Therefore, in the next few days, Wei Lao San, Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu did not go to the town to make money anymore, and they would entertain guests at home every day.
Liu Tangxi is not good at entertaining people and is in a bad mood. He doesn’t want to smile at people, so he still stays in the kitchen all day.
It’s not cooking or preparing to cook.
Having been so busy all day, falling into bed and going to sleep at night, I didn’t have the time to think too much about bothering things.
Mr. Wei’s people come to their house more frequently.
Wei Laosi, who had lived in the town for many years and had not come back, also took the town’s daughter-in-law with him.
After ten days or so, all the guests who should have come finally came. The rest is coming from my own village every day.
These people who come to chat do not need everyone to stay at home to entertain.
Therefore, Wei Lao San and his wife went to sell candied haws again, and Wei Daniel and Wei Erhu also went to work in the town.
Ten days have passed for Yoomo, and the days have returned to the peace of the past.
For ordinary people, Wei Hanzhou was originally a scholar and a good student. Now that he was hit, he is still an excellent student. Moreover, he is still reading now and can’t see any actual changes. Therefore, they don’t quite understand the big difference.
This probably waited until Wei Hanzhou passed the exam and was awarded the official position by the court before they could feel the difference.
At this time, the hawthorns in the ground were almost mature.
The maturity of the hawthorn is a big deal for the people of the third family of Wei.
Nowadays, the most profitable family is the candied haws.
The Hawthorn Land of Li Er’s Uncle’s house was not far from their home, and it was only two quarters of an hour after going out.
Because Wei Lao San and Wei Da Niu Wei Erhu wanted to make money in the town, this matter was handed over to the three Liu Tangxi concubines.
When the hawthorn was almost mature, the three of them had breakfast, and after they had cleaned up, they took their children to the hawthorn field.
Looking at the hawthorn hanging on the tree, Liu Tangxi felt that her saliva was about to flow out.
These hawthorns that were improved by her are so good that they are delicious at first glance. And when you eat it, it’s delicious. Not too sour, not too sweet, sour and sweet. Liu Tangxi couldn’t help but ate several at once.
It’s a pity that everything is not very convenient for her in the village now, and she doesn’t have much money in her hands, so she can’t try to do anything else.
Otherwise, she uses hawthorn to make canned food, hawthorn sticks, and hawthorn cake are all excellent.
Thinking of those delicious things, Liu Tangxi swallowed.
At the same time, she thought in her heart that one day, she must make these delicacies and enjoy them.
Liu Tangxi and the others are limited in strength and don’t pick too much, they pick up the weight they can get back.
Go once in the morning and again in the afternoon.
When Li came back, he looked at the red hawthorn at home, and his eyes narrowed slightly with a smile.
These days have been welcoming and sending, but I have ignored the hawthorn tree. She hasn’t been there for a long time. At this moment, seeing these hawthorns is very happy in her heart.
“The third daughter-in-law, you are really amazing. I remember that the hawthorns in your second uncle’s house were crooked melons and jujubes last year, so sour. I didn’t expect that after your treatment, the hawthorns can grow so beautiful.”
Zhou said with a smile: “Mother, you have to taste it. This hawthorn is not only good-looking, but also delicious.”
“Really?” Li asked with a smile.
“That’s not it, I’ll wash some for you, and you can try it with Dad.” Zhou said with a smile.
“Hey, good.”
With that said, Zhou went to wash the hawthorn. Soon, Wei Lao San and his wife tasted the taste of hawthorn.
Li doesn’t like sourness, and she remembers the hawthorn from her second brother’s home once she ate it once, and the sour taste lingers. But at this moment, Li was very pleasantly surprised when he tasted the hawthorn improved by his daughter-in-law.
“It’s so delicious, it tastes like you made candied haws.” Li said to Liu Tangxi.
Liu Tangxi said, “Well, if my mother finds it delicious, eat more.”
Until the next morning, Liu Tangxi handed the matter to Li when he was preparing to boil the sugar.
“Mother, our hawthorn is delicious. You can also make candied haws into the flavor that your daughter-in-law made before.”
Li hesitated and said, “Is it really possible? Isn’t there a secret recipe?”
Liu Tangxi nodded: “There is indeed a secret recipe, but if the hawthorn has been improved, there is no secret recipe. How about you try?”
To be honest, Li’s heart was a little moved.
“My daughter-in-law’s secret recipe for making candied haws is a secret at home. Although I can’t teach you this, hawthorn has been improved by my daughter-in-law, and anyone can make it delicious.”
Under Liu Tangxi’s persuasion, Li gave it a try.
After making it, it really felt like Liu Tangxi made it before.
Li is very happy, and Liu Tangxi is also very happy.
At least, even if she leaves in the future, Wei Lao San and his wife can make money from the candied haws. When the candied haws at home were gone, she could transport her some hawthorns in the capital. Anyway, the price of hawthorn is also cheap, and it won’t cost her much. In this way, she has no worries.
However, next, it was Liu Tangxi who still boiled and dipped the sugar. After all, Li is still busy washing hawthorn.
The days went so peacefully.
Wei Hanzhou Xu was busy with schoolwork. After he left, he rarely sent letters to his home.
Just when he left, he sent a letter to his home about his current situation and where he was studying.
Later, I never wrote to my family again.
He used to seldom write to home when he was studying in the county seat, so his family members got used to it.
Autumn and winter come, and the new year is coming in the blink of an eye.
Since the 20th of the twelfth lunar month, Li cried out from time to time, when will Wei Hanzhou come back.
After listening for a long time, Liu Tangxi couldn’t help but look forward to it.
Thinking that Wei Hanzhou came back on the 26th last year, until the 26th, she looked at the door frequently.
Fuyao was having a snowball fight with Liu Tangxi. Seeing that she wasn’t very attentive, he asked, “Auntie, what’s wrong with you, what do you think?”
Liu Tangxi blurted out: “Why your third uncle hasn’t come back yet.”
Fuyao is six years old this year, and in a few days, he will be seven years old. With Liu Tangxi for so long, the two are very close. Hearing Liu Tangxi’s words, he immediately asked: “My third aunt misses my third uncle?”
When the child said this, Liu Tangxi suddenly realized that he had just said something wrong, and quickly retorted: “How is it possible! It was your milk who said that your third uncle might be coming back today. Didn’t I look at the sky getting dark soon? That’s why I said so.”
Fuyao was about to say something, Shu Lan on the side said with a flat mouth: “I think Sanshu, Sanshu hasn’t been home for a long time.”
The uncle, who had just been on vacation yesterday, also said: “I also thought about it. I didn’t understand some of the questions the master said, so I want to ask my third uncle.”
For some reason, when the children said this, Liu Tangxi suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Fuyao got a snowball, and was about to continue the snowball fight with everyone. Seeing everyone’s depression, she frowned and said straightforwardly: “Since everyone is thinking about Sanshu, let’s go to the village to take a look. Why are you waiting here.”
After Shu Lan heard this, her eyes lit up and said, “Yes, big sister is right. Auntie, let’s go to the village to take a look?”
Birsheng also showed expectant eyes.
The children’s performance gave Liu Tangxi an excellent excuse. Seeing that the children looked at her expectantly, Liu Tangxi said, “Okay, let’s go, let’s go together.”
Anyway, when the time comes, she is not what she wants to go.
Several people went to the village head in a snowball fight all the way.
Unfortunately, standing at the head of the village, she still didn’t see Wei Hanzhou.
I took a few children and waited at the head of the village for about two quarters of an hour. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Liu Tangxi planned to take the children back.
“Let’s go, your third uncle predicts that he won’t be back today.”
“Really? When will he come back?” Boyson asked with a bit of disappointment.
Liu Tangxi touched his hair and said, “Xu Shi will be back tomorrow.”
“Yeah.” Bosheng replied sadly.
Liu Tangxi was about to lead the children back, and Shu Lan suddenly shouted excitedly behind Liu Tangxi: “Uncle San, it is Uncle San who is back.”
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi quickly turned around and looked over. At this moment, the sky was a little gloomy, and she could only vaguely see a tall figure walking towards Weijia Village. She couldn’t see the man’s face clearly, and could only vaguely judge that it was a tall man.
It really resembles Wei Hanzhou.
Getting closer, Liu Tangxi felt more and more like it.
“It’s really the third uncle.” Fu Yao also said from the side.
Soon, Wei Hanzhou got closer and closer to them.
Wei Hanzhou arrived at the pier by boat. He wanted to find Wei Daniel and Wei Erhu, but he learned that they were not here today.
He came back from town alone.
But he didn’t expect that when he arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw Liu Tangxi with the children waiting for him.
Looking at the familiar shadow, the cold and loneliness on the journey seemed to disappear suddenly, leaving only warmth in my heart.
“Uncle San!”
“Uncle San!”
“Uncle San!”
The children cried out Wei Hanzhou excitedly, and even ran up to him.
Even the uncle, who was afraid that he would never dared to get close to him, ran over, and Fuyao, who was still calm just now, pulled his sleeve to call him.
Liu Tangxi stood still and watched this scene quietly.
She thought this was probably the most popular time for Wei Hanzhou with children.
Wei Hanzhou looked at several nephews and nieces, and walked towards Liu Tangxi.
“Thank you lady for coming here to take her husband.”
Liu Tangxi blushed and said awkwardly: “Don’t be passionate, it was Shulan who said they wanted to see why you haven’t come back, and called me to come.”
“Oh.” Wei Hanzhou fluttered back, staring at Liu Tangxi.
Seeing that look, it seemed that she didn’t quite believe what she said.
Liu Tangxi pursed her lips, looked at the left and right, but didn’t look at him.
In the midst of this embarrassment, a childish voice rang: “San Aunt is a lie! It is clear that Aunt San raised up San Uncle first, and Shu Lan said he wanted to see it.”
Liu Tangxi glared at Fu Yao, and said in his heart: Little traitor!
Not to be outdone, Shu Lan said, “Yes, the third aunt said it first.”
The smile on Wei Hanzhou’s face deepened.
Liu Tangxi felt ashamed, and tried his best to refute: “Don’t listen to them nonsense, I didn’t say anything that is not.”
She must not admit what she just said, and must not lose face in front of Wei Hanzhou.
Wei Hanzhou was noncommittal and said, “Well, let’s go home.”
With that, go forward.
Liu Tangxi wanted to explain a few words, but after looking at Wei Hanzhou’s reaction, she thought about it, but didn’t say anything, she was going to go home.
However, before moving his steps, his eyes stared again at the initiator Wei Fuyao, and he threatened in a low voice, “Tomorrow, I will eat all the delicious food, and I won’t keep it for you!”
Fuyao was familiar with Liu Tangxi’s temper and knew that she wouldn’t be like this, so he made a grimace at her and ran away laughing and laughing.
“Let’s go, lady?” Wei Hanzhou stopped and looked at Liu Tangxi.
“Oh.” Liu Tangxi stopped taking care of Fu Yao, and quickly followed.
Unexpectedly, just walking to Wei Hanzhou’s side, the hand placed on the left was suddenly grasped.
The palm of this hand is huge and firm, making it hard to break free.
Liu Tangxi was shocked suddenly, raised his head and looked over, wanting to say a few words to question him.
However, Wei Hanzhou didn’t even look at her, and walked firmly in the direction of home.
Liu Tangxi suddenly forgot to struggle, and followed it blankly.
The winter sky is always dark very fast, but it is just a blink of an eye, and it is already dark.
The sleeves are wide. If you don’t look closely, you won’t be able to see that the two are holding their hands together.
Except for them, there were no other pedestrians on the road, and the oil lamps of each house gradually lit up, and the chimneys rose up with fluttering smoke.
Fuyao and others were chattering around, no one paid attention to the situation here.
The cold north wind whizzed past my ears, and the snowflakes that had been stopped all day began to slowly fall again, falling on the shoulders, on the tips of the hair, and on the sleeves.
But on the left hand, there was a steady flow of heat.
Warm the whole winter. ,,
