Xu Zijing and his wife originally thought that since the springboard was erected, it was time for Mrs. Sheng to disembark, right
However, because the sailor said: "Old Master, I am not lazy, I have long heard that although our eldest son is young, he has a photographic memory, a quick mind, a lot of talent, a wealth of knowledge, a tall and tall man, and a handsome appearance. , capable of literary and military skills, extraordinary conversational skills, sensible and filial, friendly to brothers and sisters, cherishing younger sisters, dignified in appearance, calm and calm... Now I heard that the eldest son was the number one scholar in high school, and I thought if I could take a look at the eldest son from a distance. , Just be blessed, I was wondering if I should mention it to you, old man, and then I got distracted!"
Old Mrs. Sheng was about to step onto the springboard, but he immediately took it back: "Although my unfilial grandson is young, he has a photographic memory, a quick mind, a lot of talent, a wealth of knowledge, a tall and tall figure, a handsome appearance, and capable of writing and writing. Wu, has an extraordinary conversation, is sensible and filial, is friendly to his brothers and sisters, cherishes his younger sister, has a majestic appearance, is calm and calm... But my old Sheng family has always been low-key and humble. What's so difficult about this? You will follow me later, and look back. If the boy is short of someone, just run errands for him!"
After looking around the deck like this, and seeing no one else answering, he shook his sleeves and walked down in a very majestic manner.
At this time, the crowd below had not dispersed. Some people had already asked the old man’s sons if they were in need of “good-looking, gentle, filial, and good at getting married” daughters-in-law. They even asked the old man himself if he was in need of “long-lived” daughters-in-law. A good-looking, gentle and filial daughter-in-law who knows how to get things done
"My wife is in the cabin!" The old man cursed with a smile, bowed his hands and said, "My daughters-in-law are also very filial, otherwise how could I have so many grandchildren? Everyone, my eldest grandson, although he is young, But he has a photographic memory, a quick mind, a lot of talent, a lot of knowledge, tall and tall, handsome appearance, capable of literary and military skills, extraordinary conversational skills, sensible and filial, friendly to his brothers and sisters, cherishing his younger sister, noble in appearance, calm and calm... In addition, in fact, He doesn’t have any other abilities. The younger brothers in the family are much better than him! Don’t praise your unfilial grandson too much, lest you spoil him!"
It was okay that he didn't strike up a conversation, but a few people were there to make noises. As soon as he struck up a conversation, a group of people gathered around and asked questions.
Those who are related to each other, those who are married, those who are envious, those who are jealous, those who are curious, those who are joining in the fun... After more than an hour, Mr. Sheng, who finally finished preaching the "low-key and humble" family style of the Lao Sheng family, walked out of the crowd with unfinished content. I went to ride the car with great satisfaction.
Xu Zijing and his wife waited on each other carefully while asking: "Uncle Shi, are my aunt and our parents also on the boat? Why haven't we seen them come out until now?"
Originally, when Mrs. Sheng was surrounded by a crowd, they wanted to get on the boat to have a look, but because the crowd happened to block the gangplank, they really couldn't get through. Moreover, Mr. Sheng is not the kind of person who has no sense of measure. If there is anything wrong with Mr. Xu, Mr. and Mrs. Ming, he will never have the intention to show off his children and grandchildren here.
Therefore, although Xu Zijing and his wife have doubts at the moment, they are not too worried.
Sure enough, Old Mrs. Sheng stroked his beard and hummed: "That old boy, Lao Xu, said that it was rare for him to be on the boat for so long and suddenly he was about to go ashore. He felt very reluctant to leave, so he planned to stay in the cabin for a while... My brothers and sisters are following me My wife plans to count the boxes and cages and wait until everything is moved down before disembarking!"
Xu Zijing and his wife looked at each other after hearing this, with one thought in their minds: "Aunt Ming is probably embarrassed, as for my parents, it's probably because that unfilial son Bao Mo failed to uphold my old Xu family's reputation, and she doesn't want to see the prosperous times. Bo Yaowu shows off his power!"
The two of them couldn't laugh or cry, so they sent Mr. Sheng to the carriage, confessed his crime, and then turned back to the boat to pick him up.
Because Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xiahou were both on the boat at this time, of course the Xu sisters had to go too.
But for the three girls of the Sheng family, Sheng Weiqiao hesitated and wanted to stay. After all, she knew the inside story. The happier Mr. Sheng was now, the sadder he would be when he learned the truth later... Thinking of that situation, Even though she understood that Sheng Suihe was not here at the moment and that Mr. Sheng could not bear such a blow for the time being, she couldn't bear it and wanted to protect her grandfather.
However, the old man looked up and saw her, and urged her: "What are you doing here? Go pick up your grandmother! She was still thinking about you just now, saying that she has grown taller in the past few months without seeing you!"
Not knowing how hard his granddaughter was working, the old man muttered to himself: Why is this Qiaoer so honest and doesn't even know how to act? I am your biological grandfather, if you neglect me, even if I am not happy, how can I care about my biological granddaughter? But Ming is not your direct grandmother, but your step-grandmother. You have lost her face. Even if she doesn't say anything, if outsiders find out, they will say that you are relying on your father and brother and are contemptuous of her!
"It's not about traveling thousands of miles away. Grandpa finally came here. Did he bring us anything good?" Sheng Weiqiao saw her grandfather looking at her like a silly girl, secretly vomited blood and said depressedly, "Look Grandpa’s thoughts are not on us at all, hum! Let’s go find grandma!”
After saying that, he left angrily.
They went to the boat to find Mrs. Ming, but Mrs. Sheng, who was left behind, showed a sly expression and asked the elder Sui Lao Zheng: "Did I care so much about scolding He'er just now that Qiao'er was unhappy?"
Lao Zheng smiled and said, "Old Master, are you scolding me?"
It's such an obvious show off. How can the third lady not notice it at such a young age
As a legitimate daughter, she might have a legitimate brother soon. Even if she knew that her concubine brother was going to be successful, her face would be radiant. Would she like to see her grandfather looking at her as a concubine brother
Hearing the meaning of Lao Zheng's words, Old Mrs. Sheng said awkwardly: "This kid! Didn't I think that after my old Sheng family has a successor, the girls will have someone to support them whether they are discussing marriage or leaving the cabinet! Again! It’s not that I don’t love them!”
But I still thought, "Let's find a chance to praise Qiaoer later. This child has always been pampered, but he can't bear to be wronged."
Sheng Weiqiao didn't know that her grandfather regarded her caring as a petty act, so she was a little surprised at this moment: "Second brother, fourth sister, fifth brother, why are you all here?"
When she said this, she felt a bit unwelcome, and hurriedly explained, "We didn't receive any news before, and we didn't even know you were coming!"
"It's a long story." Mrs. Ming smiled awkwardly and said, "Originally, your grandfather only planned to accompany Mr. Xu northward. But I was still thinking about it, so I persuaded Mrs. Xiahou to go north together. It's been a long journey... It's a long way from Nanfeng County to Chang'an, and it's really boring to just have a few of us on the boat. I think De'er and the others don't have much to do at home anyway, so why not bring them with us and let's talk about the journey? Loneliness, secondly, it also allows them to broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge while they are young."
Sheng Weiqiao vaguely guessed that the main purpose of Mrs. Ming's move was probably for Sheng Weirao. Although due to the passage of time and the Sheng family's status in Nanfeng County, no one mentioned this girl's previous experiences. But everyone in Nanfeng County kept it in mind.
If he were to find a husband for Sheng Weirao in Nanfeng County, he would definitely have to make do with it.
Although Sheng Weirao's biological mother, Bai Shi, had never been liked by Mrs. Ming, Sheng Weirao had once had a falling out with Mrs. Ming because of her biological mother's death. But after all, they are direct descendants. Three years have passed, and it seems that Mrs. Ming still cares about this granddaughter's lifelong events.
This time, I guess I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to go north to Chang'an to see if I could find a suitable in-laws for Sheng Weirao
After all, although it is difficult to completely hide what happened to Sheng Weirao, if she married in a foreign country, the people around her husband's family would not know the inside story, and only Sheng Weirao himself would be considered enviable because of his outstanding appearance. In this way, the husband's family is under less pressure, and when the Sheng family promises various compensations, they may not be unable to treat each other as guests.
As for what it means to open one's horizons and increase one's knowledge, that is of course a matter between Sheng Weide and Sheng Weiche.
"Then our brothers and sisters are now reunited for a little while." Sheng Weiqiao smiled bitterly in his heart, okay, so many people have come to the Sheng family all at once. I don't know what kind of chaos will happen when Sheng Suihe's life experience is revealed.
But there was still a look of joy on his face, "It's a pity that Sixth Brother and the others are still in Nanfeng County and haven't come over."
Mrs. Ming was very satisfied with her attitude and said with a smile: "They are still young! Anyway, didn't He'er just win the first prize? With him as an elder brother here, they will have the opportunity to learn more in the future!"
"What grandma said, the eldest brother just has the advantage of being older." Sheng Weiqiao twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Will there be no other gold medals among the brothers in the family? Our family will still be prosperous for a long time. It’s here!”
The old lady smiled and said: "How can De'er and the others compare with He'er? They are just honest and honest!"
At this time, a servant came up to report that everything was almost packed, and asked Mrs. Ming if she wanted to go and see it in person.
Mrs. Ming originally made this excuse because she didn't want to go out with Mr. Sheng to show off her children and grandchildren. Now that the crowd had dispersed, she naturally didn't bother to show off anymore and told her confidant: "Ms. Zhang, go and watch for me. I'll have a better day." I haven’t seen many children anymore, so where do I have time to worry about such trivial matters now?”
After leaving the cabin, Xu Zijing's family also joined Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xiahou. When the old man got off the boat, he was still cursing: "Bao Mo, you little bastard! It doesn't matter if you can't compare with He'er. You just passed the exam." What a legend! You didn't even squeeze in the helmet. This bastard made me hide in the cabin for a long time before I came out... It must be that you haven't seen your son for many years. After you saw him, you were too pampered and made this kid relax. Come down! If I had known earlier, I should have taken the time to let him come to Chang'an!"
Xu Zijing and his wife were speechless. They also suspected that Mr. Xu had become soft-hearted in his old age, so he spoiled Xu Baomo!
But I dare not say this, and I have to apologize and ask Mr. Xu to calm down his anger: "Father, you taught me a lesson, but now it's done, I ask you to temporarily suspend your thunderous anger, and when you meet that little bastard later, beat him to vent your anger yourself! "
Sheng Weiqiao happened to hear: "..."
She tried to say something nice for Xu Baomo: "Old Marquis, actually, Brother Shi is still working very hard these days..."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Xu's eyes lit up: "How did you know, Qiaoer?!"
Could it be that this girl has been silently paying attention to her grandson
Could it be that... there is still hope for Sheng Xu to get married
But Xu Zijing and his wife turned green. Why is the niece so stubborn in this life? ! She has already told her that her son is a scumbag, why does she still remember him so much? !
It depends on other people's daughters. If they still insist on realizing it after being reminded, let's just let it go. They are not really selfless enough to prevent their son from marrying and harming other girls just because they know that he is not a good person. But the Lao Sheng family Girls, they are really embarrassed!
He quickly pulled Mr. Xu to quicken his pace: "Dad, we suddenly remembered that we have something important to tell you!"
"..." Sheng Weiqiao, who knew what they would say to Mr. Xu, remained silent.
In all conscience, she really didn't want Xu Baomo to be beaten, but she didn't want to kill someone with a borrowed knife! ! !
