Chapter 35

Shan Cha quickly found Ren Yazi and came over, Siyan Bingqin cried miserably, threw herself to Xu Xiaofu's feet and begged for mercy, "Young Madam, Young Madam, we made a mistake, I beg Young Madam to forgive us, please Young Madam, please forgive us us."

Xu Xiaofu sighed softly, "This is the general's order, I can't do anything about it, Shan Cha, I will leave the rest to you." After finishing speaking, he turned and went back to his room.Siyan Bingqin's crying came from behind, and there was a voice of unwillingness, "Why do you sell us? We were sent by Madam Xie to serve the general. If you sell us, Madam will not let you go. Do you think Who are you, you are just an abandoned woman, you really think of yourself as the young lady of Xie Mansion! Why do you sell us! Why!"

Shan Cha slapped the two of them on the face, "Presumptuous, lowly son, young lady is what you can say. Hurry up and take the two of them away. This is the contract of prostitution for the two of you. Take it away quickly." .”

The two crying and cursing girls were quickly taken away by Ren Yazi, and Camellia Dujuan made a pot of tea and sent it to the room.Xu Xiaofu took the tea and smiled at the two servant girls.

Shan Cha said: "Young madam, don't be angry, those two bastards don't know what to do, the general will let them think about it, thinking that madam sent them here, they will be hardened..."

Du Juan took the teacup from Xu Xiaofu's hand, and nodded, "Yes, madam, don't be angry, the general will treat you well in his life, and will never let such a lowly embryo make you angry."

Xu Xiaofu raised his eyebrows, "Oh?" They seemed to know the general very well.The two of them really knew their general very well. Camellia and Dujuan were biological sisters. When they were young, all their family members died because of the war, and then they were brought back to Xie's mansion by General Xie. The two of them followed the general to serve them. Still very clear.

Shan Cha smiled and said: "Young Madam, what the general hates the most is the fight between wives and concubines in the backyard, and what he hates the most is slaves bullying the master. So, don't worry."

Xu Xiaofu nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Is there a small kitchen in this yard?"

Du Juan said: "Yes, young lady, what do you want to eat? Or you can just tell the kitchen to do it."

"No need." Xu Xiaofu waved his hand, "I will prepare some ingredients in the small kitchen in the backyard, maybe when they are useful."

"Yes, young lady."

In the next few days, Xu Xiaofu still went to greet Bai Shi every day, and still let the maid send him away without even seeing Bai Shi's face. Bai Shi probably felt that even seeing her was a shame.The most important thing is that even Shen Jiaomei has never been here again, Xu Xiaofuli lives at leisure, staying in the courtyard where he lives every day without leaving the gate.

Xu Xiaofu's posture was a lot more casual when Xie Duanyu was not on weekdays, but when Xie Duanyu came back, she had to sit up straight and put on airs, even her smile was a well-behaved smile without showing her teeth, and her voice was very Moderate high and low, tepid.

After dinner that day, Xu Xiaofu took the tea handed by Shan Cha and rinsed his mouth, and saw Xie Duanyu on the opposite side also put down the bowl and chopsticks, then he smiled and said: "General, I want to invite a lady to teach me how to read and write , do you like it?"

Xie Duanyu wiped his mouth and said kindly, "Shancha, I'll find a female gentleman tomorrow."

Xu Xiaofu was overjoyed, and continued to smile without showing his teeth, "Thank you, General." After thinking for a while, he said, "General, tomorrow is the first day of junior high school. There is a family feast, will you be at home tomorrow?" There will be a family banquet on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year. Everyone in the Xie family will eat together on this day. Tomorrow will be Xu Xiaofu's first time participating in the Xie family's family banquet.

Xie Duanyu thought about it seriously, looked at Xu Xiaofu with dark eyes, "If nothing happens in the camp, I will come back."

Xu Xiaofu looked back into those deep eyes, and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait for you at home, okay?"

She didn't want to go to that family banquet at all, but she had to go if she didn't, it was the Xie family's rule.Thinking of facing the scrutinizing eyes of Xie's family tomorrow night, Xu Xiaofu felt uncomfortable, and only hoped that the man in front of him could accompany her.For some reason, Xu Xiaofu always felt that this person would at least protect her well and would not let Xie's family bully her.

"No, if I come back, I will go. If you don't come, you don't have to wait for me." Xie Duanyue said and stood up, "I'm going to the study, you should rest early."

"Okay." Xu Xiaofu replied a little discouraged, bowed his head and remained silent.Xie Duanyu stood opposite her, looking at Xu Xiaofu's drooping head, he seemed to be able to imagine the frustration on her face in his mind, he couldn't help but paused, pursed his lips, and said: "Tomorrow I will go to bed as soon as possible. Some come back."

Xu Xiaofu raised his head and looked at him with a smile, "Okay."

Seeing the smile on her face, Xie Duanyu stepped out of the room.

Seeing Xie Duanyu's leaving back, Xu Xiaofu felt much better for no reason.

Xie Duanyue entered the study, Shan Cha brought a pot of tea and went out, leaving Xie Duanyue alone to practice calligraphy in the study, with several vigorous and powerful characters jumping on the paper.

Xu Xiaofu knew that Xie Duanyu would practice calligraphy and read in the study for an hour after dinner, so he didn't plan to wait for him, and took a bath and rested after playing with the lotus.She has been sleeping very well, and she can fall asleep almost as long as she is next to the head of the bed. When she was in a drowsy sleep, she heard the sound of the door opening and Du Juan's low voice, "General, the young lady has rested, can you Are you going to the bathroom to take a shower and change?"

"Well, go get some water."

Not long after, Xu Xiaofu felt that the bed was sinking, and his nostrils smelled the unique smell of Xie Duanyu. Xu Xiaofu couldn't tell what it was, but felt that smelling it would make her feel at ease, and she fell into a deep sleep with this smell past.

I don't know if it was because she went to bed too early at night, but she woke up at Yinshi and turned over, only to find that Xie Duanyu hadn't gotten up yet.Through the dim light outside the window, Xu Xiaofu saw the man who was close at hand, with a bulging Adam's apple, a resolute side face, a straight nose bridge, and narrow, narrow eyes.He was staring at Xie Duanyu's eyes, and suddenly those eyes opened suddenly. The man turned his head to look at Xu Xiaofu, his eyes were dark and bright, and he was looking at her without blinking. .

Xu Xiaofu didn't have the awareness of being discovered by peeping at others, and smiled at the man, "Good morning, General."

"Mm, good morning." Xie Duanyu's voice was a little hoarse, he sat up, got out of bed, took the black brocade suit next to him, put it on, and strode out of the room.

Xu Xiaofu stared at Xie Duanyu dressing and leaving from the beginning to the end, then covered his mouth and yawned, and the voice of Camellia Dujuan came to mind outside, "Young Madam, are you up yet?"

Xu Xiaofu responded, and then two maids came in with copper basins to wait for Xu Xiaofu to freshen up.It was said to be grooming, but in fact it was just helping her comb her hair. For other things, Xu Xiaofu felt that he was not short of arms or legs, so he didn't need help from others.

Looking at Du Juan who was helping her with her hair in the bronze mirror, Xu Xiaofu asked, "What's the matter with the general's voice?"

"The general had a throat injury before. Although it has healed, his throat is still a little hoarse when he wakes up in the morning."

Xu Xiaofu snorted, and said to Shancha: "Shancha, you go and order the kitchen to make cold white fungus and celery in the morning, and some vinegar, so it's lighter."

"Okay, young lady."

When eating breakfast, Xie Duanyu ate two dishes, his throat felt better, he nodded and said: "These two dishes are good, I will often get them to eat in the future."

Camellia Rhododendron glanced at Xu Xiaofu and said with a smile, "Yes, General."

Xie Duanyu left after breakfast.The family banquet of Xie's family was in the evening, Xu Xiaofu accompanied He Hua for a day, when he arrived in Shenshi, Camellia Rhododendron urged Xu Xiaofu to wash and dress up, Xu Xiaofu told He Hua that he could not accompany her to eat at night, and he had to listen to Nanny Chen obediently, The little girl nodded obediently, indicating that she understood.

After grooming, Xu Xiaofu chose a well-proportioned dress, neither too elegant nor too showy, and then put on a thin powder, and Xie Duanyu hadn't come back until Youshi.The eldest maid of the Bai family, Xi Qiu, came to call for someone, so Xu Xiaofu had to follow Xi Qiu to the main hall of Xie's house.

The Xie family members have all arrived, except General Xie, who has gone traveling around, Mrs. Xie is sitting at the top, next is Mr. Xie Yizhong, Mrs. Bai, Mr. Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Liuhui, Mrs. Zhang.Xie Duanyu's second brother Xie Duanran, Xie Duanran's wife Meng Shi, Xie Qingxue, twins Xie Jing, Xie Xiang, and Shen Jiaomei, born to the second wife Zhang's family, were all there, and even Master Xie Yizhong's concubine Fang Shi was there. , Xie Rui, a one-year-old boy born to Xie Duanran and Meng Shi, was also hugged by the nanny. Except for Xie Duanyue, all Xie's family members were present.

Xie Qingxue snorted, looked at Xu Xiaofu with unfriendly eyes, "It's really unreasonable to ask Xi Qiu to invite you."

Xu Xiaofu smiled at her, "Sister, I'm sorry, I won't do it next time."

The angry Xie Qingxue immediately blushed, and before Xie Qingxue could say anything, Xu Xiaofu had already saluted Mrs. Xie, "My granddaughter-in-law has seen grandma, grandma is well."

"My daughter-in-law has met my mother..." After that, I greeted everyone.

Although Bai's complexion was not good-looking, Mrs. Xie couldn't blame Xu Xiaofu for anything, so she said calmly: "Sit down."

"Yes, mother." Xu Xiaofu sat down upright.

Except for the fact that Xie Duanyu and Xu Xiaofu met Xu Xiaofu the next morning after they got married, the Xie family hadn't met the general's wife very much since then, and now they are all looking at her curiously, with scrutiny, curiosity, and ridicule in their eyes .Xu Xiaofu acted as if he couldn't see anything, and sat upright, watching his nose, nose, nose, nose, and heart. He only hoped that this family banquet would end soon.

It's a pity that some people don't want Xu Xiaofu to fulfill his wish, Mrs. Zhang from the second room of Xie's family covered her mouth and giggled, "Oh, we haven't seen my nephew and daughter-in-law for almost half a month, and my niece and daughter-in-law don't come out much , I don’t know if my niece and daughter-in-law still remember who I am.”

Xu Xiaofu looked at Mrs. Zhang, who had a somewhat mean face, and said with a smile, "Auntie is really good at joking, so naturally my niece and daughter-in-law remember Auntie."

Mrs. Zhang held back a glance at Mrs. Bai, then giggled for a while, and looked at Xu Xiaofu with an unconcealable excitement, "I heard that my niece and daughter-in-law are very good at cooking, but I heard that Prince Cao There is a dish in Zuixianju under his name, which is served by his nephew and daughter-in-law. I heard that in the whole capital, Zuixianju has that dish called jerky. Oh, my nephew and daughter-in-law. Your uncle likes to drink, and he also likes to go there on weekdays Drunk Xianju, drink some wine, and order a plate of your jerky... When will my niece and daughter-in-law cook some of that appetizer to honor your uncle?"

Xu Xiaofu was still smiling, but Bai's complexion became ugly, and he even gritted his teeth a bit.

Barracks

Zhaowu Captain Huang Liangping rushed into Xie Duanyu's tent excitedly, "General Xie, those recruits are all exhausted, and today's task is completed. Anyway, it's still early, let's go out to make gestures, by the way So that those bastards can see the majesty of the general... Damn, I don't believe that I can't beat you, the general!"

A smile appeared on Xie Duanyu's unchanging face, and he patted the shoulder of the number one general under his command, "I won't be here today, I still have some things to do and I need to go back earlier."

Huang Liangping with a full beard put his head on Xie Duanyu's body, and said with a smile: "It's really strange, it's the first time I saw General Xie preparing to go back in such a hurry, could it be that there is some beautiful woman hiding at home? Oh, General, you are quite enlightened, you would not let you hang out with us on weekdays, but now..."

Xie Duanyu didn't wait for him to finish, and punched Huang Liangping on the shoulder. Huang Liangping took a few steps back and scolded with a smile: "You son of a bitch, don't dare to make fun of me... Okay, I still have something to do, so let's go!" I'm leaving."

Staring at Xie Duanyu's hasty pace, Huang Pingliang stroked his bearded face with an inscrutable look on his face, "Could it be that the general really brought a beautiful lady into his home? That's right, there is such a yellow lady at home. The face really wronged the general, but luckily the general is enlightened now..."
