The Little First Grand Secretary in My House

Chapter 33

Views:

Xue Tingxiang originally planned to wait for Xiu Mu to take Chen Jian to Dongliju.

After thinking about it, he only took a day off, and he had other uses for the time, so he took a noon and told Zhaifu that he would only go out for half an hour to buy some things, and Zhaifu released a few people.

All the way to Dongliju, only Ah Cai sat bored in the shop.

After asking, I found out that Boss Chen was in the backyard.

Xue Tingxiang came here often and was familiar with Ah Cai, so he took the three to the back. Mao Badou, who has always talked a lot, came to this kind of place, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense, he was very honest.

Boss Chen is basking in the sun and drinking tea in the yard. There is a reclining chair under the lush tree, and Zhang Xiaoji is placed next to the reclining chair, which is better than the nourishment of the gods.

Seeing Xue Tingyan coming, he waved with a smile: "Why are you free today?" But his eyes were on Chen Jian and the others in the corridor.

Xue Tingxiang was not restrained either, and sat down on the small tumbler beside the reclining chair.

"Uncle Chen, it's like this, I have a classmate..." He briefly explained the matter, and took out Chen Jian's calligraphy to show Boss Chen.

Boss Chen took the booklet and flipped it a few times at random, turning it over, and his movements became stagnant.

After a long time, he let out a sigh of relief, and said with a little smile: "I said that your character is good, but I didn't expect that this son's handwriting is not inferior to yours, but it is still a little immature and a little too sharp. There is a faint sense of unyielding coming towards you, which is not as good as your uprightness and harmony. The so-called words are like people, I am afraid that this child has a big world in his heart. "

Xue Tingxiang listened by the side, but there was darkness in his eyes.

He was thinking of nothing else, but in that dream it was so. He is hypocritical, hides a knife in his smile, and has a sweet sword in his mouth. After suffering that big change, he changed his past temperament and became sanctimonious, with different appearances.

I remember someone scolding him in the dream: "Shizi is treacherous, a hypocrite on the surface, but a real villain in reality."

This is not wrong, he is such a person.

His teacher taught him that the mind is rational, the unity of knowledge and action, and the conscience, but he taught him a man who was disobedient. In his eyes, there is no imperial power, no honor and inferiority, no three cardinal guides and five permanent members. It seems that Xue Shoufu is gentle to the next, who does not say that Shoufu is approachable, and tolerance is great. But in fact, under this sanctimonious appearance, there is a wolf's ambition, and those who obey me will prosper and those who disobey me will perish.

On the other hand, Chen Huanzhi is different. He has always been rebellious, but he looks extreme on the outside, but in fact he has a righteous heart.

Such a person is destined to live a rough life, because there are too many weaknesses exposed, and they are just attacking for a villain like him. Just like how he made friends with Chen Jian this time, the purpose was so simple.

Even Xue Tingxiang didn't think that Boss Chen's just a few casual remarks would cause waves in his heart. As for Boss Chen, he didn't even know. He closed the booklet and asked, "I wonder who this classmate you are talking about is?"

Xue Tingxiang walked over and called Chen Jian over.

Chen Jian didn't know that there were so many obscure things happening during this period, and he came over a little nervously and bowed.

"Don't be restrained, since you are Ting Yan's friend, you are considered my junior. Your handwriting is very good, and you will definitely achieve a lot in time. It's just that you are still studying now, and if you want to test your fame in the end, you are too sharp. Words and people have a bad impression, so we should pay more attention in the future.”

"Thank you Boss Chen for your advice."

Boss Chen smiled and said: "I don't dare to give advice, don't call me Boss Chen, just call me Uncle Chen. I have a lot of books here, and I need someone to transcribe them. If you want, just like Ting Yan, Copy a roll and pay you a tael for the pen and ink. As for the paper and pen and ink, I will give it to me, and you will find Ah Cai later, and he will tell you some things to pay attention to.”

After that, Xue Tingyan spoke to Boss Chen again, Chen Jian went to get the paper and ink, and the four talents went out of the gate of Dongliju together.

"One tael of silver in a roll is really a lot." Mao Badou sucked his teeth and Hanako with some envy. He had just been in it for a long time, and at this time he was finally able to speak.

"That's because A Jian's handwriting is good. If your handwriting can match the court and A Jian, you can also get one tael of silver per roll." Li Datian likes honest people to tell the truth.

"Tsk, we must have been enemies in our past lives, and you like to poke my sore spot."

The two people were laughing, and Chen Jian said to Xue Tingxiang, "Thank you, I know that if it wasn't for you, Uncle Chen would definitely not be able to charge me such a high price."

"Thank you, Da Tian didn't say that your words are good."

"Thank you anyway." Chen Jian was a little excited, and he squeezed the hand of the bookbag, which contained the rice paper and ink ingots that Dongliju gave him: "These silvers are very important to me, I It will be a good copy."

Xue Tingxiang patted his shoulder and said nothing, just nodded.

At this time, Mao Badou and Li Datian came over after laughing and said, "Okay, don't thank you. Thank you. It's still early. Shall we play around?"

where to play? That's what the three of them mean.

Li Datian hurriedly said: "It's alright, it's alright, it's just so much time, what else are you going to do, you'll have a rest tomorrow, then you can do whatever you want."

Xue Tingxiang suddenly said: "By the way, I want to go shopping." After hesitating for a while, he asked: "Badou, do you know there are some girls' favorite things sold in town, that is..."

He was still explaining, for fear that Mao Badou would not understand, but Mao Badou suddenly jumped three feet high and leaned over with a cheap smile: "Do you want to buy it for your little fiancee? ,I'll take you!"

Following him all the way, four teenagers in school shirts came to a deep alley.

Mao Badou led the way and said: "Don't look at this place is inconspicuous, in fact, it has all the things in it, my sister will come every once in a while to buy some flowers that my daughter wears. My family is not wealthy, and the sellers are not very good at selling them. We can't afford to go to the silver building. This kind of place is just right."

Before the words fell, a small door was seen not far away, as if a certain family had opened the door on the courtyard wall. The place is not big, just like a house.

There is neither a signboard, nor a pretense, nor a name, but when I approached, I found that the interior was very elegant, and at first glance, it was a place to sell my daughter's family belongings.

"Boss, I'm here again!" Mao Badou greeted as he stepped into the threshold.

"It's you little brother, your sister isn't here today?" The boss is a woman in her forties. She doesn't look young anymore, but she is clean and decent, which makes people feel good.

"Haha, I brought a friend to buy something."

The female boss glanced at a few young scholars, and nodded knowingly: "Then you can see for yourself, and I will give you a discount if you like it."

Between Mao Badou and the female boss talking, Xue Tingxiang had already gone to the front of the counter. The counter design of this store is quite special. The countertop is half a person high, and there are wooden boxes one by one. The wooden boxes are padded with bright satin, and a piece of gadgets are placed on the satin.

From large purses, sachets, combs, hand mirrors, hairpins, to small headbands, head flowers, earrings, ear clangs, everything. Xue Tingxiang had never come into contact with the things of such a woman's house, and his eyes were blurred for a while.

After Mao Badou finished speaking, he looked like an expert: "Look at how much you want to buy and how much money you plan to spend. Whether you plan to buy one, or a few, I'll give you an advisor."

Since then, Xue Tingxiang, who has always been calm and composed, has completely turned into a tender head. And Mao Badou changed his body and became the leader.

"What do you think of this bead flower? My daughter's family likes pink and tender colors, and my sister likes this..."

"Or this wooden hairpin, which looks very special. And this earring..."

"Badou, how do you understand this?" Li Datian asked curiously from the side.

Mao Badou looked helpless: "It's not my sister. I have to accompany you every time you come. I can read it and understand it."

Seeing Xue Tingxiang's eyes on an old peach wood hibiscus hairpin, he said distractedly: "This hairpin is good, elegant and generous, and it will not be too childish. There are also matching earrings, but I'm afraid the price is not cheap. "

"My little brother has good eyesight. This is a new style that I just came back from Fucheng. That's all. The wood is old peach wood, and the workmanship is exquisite. The hairpin is made of silver, and this hibiscus is embedded with hibiscus stones..."

After a while, the four of them came out of the shop, and there was a wooden box in Xue Tingxiang's book bag.

"Ting Yuan, you are really willing to spend a tael of silver on two things, which you earned from copying books for a long time." Even Mao Badou, who has always been generous, could not help but have a toothache. Let him look at the items of these women's homes, and it's just a matter of paying 100 yuan. I didn't expect that a friend would buy such an expensive one.

"The things are suitable, and the money will be earned later." Xue Tingxiang smiled and rubbed the box with his fingers through the bookbag.

"Yes. After all, it's a gift for a young fiancee. It's impossible to take too much action."

Several people returned to the academy, entered the door on the front foot, and the bell rang on the back foot.

The four of them didn't dare to delay, they hurried back to the number house, put their things away, and took the books to the lecture hall.

In the afternoon, there is usually no lecturing, and the students are the students themselves.

It's fine as usual. Tomorrow will be a rest day. In the afternoon, everyone seems to have a kind of eagerness to move.

Because many students are from nearby villages, they disbanded before the application time. They went back to their halls to collect things, and soon the school hall was empty.

The four of them walked out of the gate of the academy together, and they heard someone shouting from a distance, "Ting'er, this way."

I saw a mule cart parked diagonally opposite, with two people sitting on the yoke.

A man, a boy.

Xue Tingxiang's face darkened on the spot.

Mao Badou was about to ask something when he saw the young man rolling in like a gust of wind: "I just remembered that you should be a casual official at this time, but Brother Jiang Wu said no. Let's go, let's go home, I bought a lot of vegetables, and I will give them to you in the evening. Make good food."

This young man is recruiting.

She did not deliberately lower her voice to speak, and the crispness of her voice that belonged to a girl was fully revealed. Mao Badou seemed to have swallowed an egg, unable to speak.

Only then did Zhao'er react and ask, "Is this your classmate?"

Xue Tingxiang hummed in a low voice.

"What's wrong? Why are you unhappy? Who bullied you, tell me, I'll help you teach him a lesson!"

"I didn't bully Ting Yan, you, you are... "

"I'm Sister Ting'er, you are his classmates." Zhao'er was very happy. She always felt that the little man was too withdrawn. Although he has changed a lot since the fight, it is still good to have a few more friends. More lively.

"She's not my sister, she's my daughter-in-law!" Saying that, Xue Tingxiang grabbed her and hurriedly said "I'm leaving first," and dragged her away.

Mao Badou returned to the appearance of swallowing eggs, and said after a while: "It turns out that Ting Yuan likes elder sister, it turns out that this is the little fiancee..."

"What sister is not a sister! How can you change the taste of your words. Let's go, you won't be able to get in the car if you don't go."

Xue Tingyan didn't have a good face along the way, Zhao'er was worried about Jiang Wu's presence, and it was hard to ask him what was wrong. He could only laugh and laugh on the side, and Quan should be an active atmosphere.

Jiang Wu was unaware, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, talking to Zhao'er without a word.

When he arrived at the village, Jiang Wu did not go around the end of the village, but drove the mule cart directly to the door of Xue's house.

Both Zhao'er and Xue Tingxiang got out of the car, and Jiang Wu began to move things out of the car.

Zhao'er said that she bought a lot of things, which is true. One bag of rice noodles, two pig trotters, five jins of pork and other miscellaneous items, and two pieces of cloth.

The Xue family all came out of the house, including the Zhao family and the Yang family.

Today Xue Juncai will also be back, they thought it was Xue Qingshan who went to pick Xue Juncai back.

"Zhao'er, why did you buy so many things?" Sun asked curiously.

Zhao'er opened the door and put things in the room, and said, "Ting'er finally came back, so I bought some good ones to make up for him."

Mrs. Zhao stood in front of the door of the main room, her nose was not a nose, and her face was not a face: "You also know that you are back, and you can't see anyone running all day. Which daughter's family looks like you."

Zhao'er innocently said: "Nah, when did I not come back? I went back before it got dark. I just wanted to find some money. Ting'er can spend money for the two of them in school. Why don't you want money."

Zhao Shi snorted and threw the curtain and entered the house.

Zhao'er didn't take it seriously, he turned his head and said to Brother Jiang Wu: "Brother Jiang Wu, please trouble you, take a good rest at home tomorrow."

Jiang Wu nodded: "Then I'll go."

"Okay, I won't send you."

After some cleaning up, Zhao'er turned to look at Xue Tingxiang.

Seeing him still fuming, this child is really stingy! She touched her nose, took her clothes to the corner of the room, closed a cloth curtain hanging there, and began to change her clothes.

Not long after it came out, men's clothing became women's clothing.

She lowered her head and twisted her hair, and suddenly there was someone in front of her.

She looked up and saw him handing over a small wooden box.

"what?"

He didn't speak, just looked at her with black eyes.

Zhao'er took it and opened it.

"This is for me?"
