The second wife of the Xi family suddenly snatched the jar from Zhao Ping's hand and held it tightly.
She stared at Zhao Ping with big dark eyes and tilted her head.
She then chanted slowly: "The land of Tianfu, an important town in the southwest, has a state named Changzhou. It connects to Chengdu at the top and Chongqing at the bottom. It is infinitely glorious. Cut off the beauty of Bashan Mountain, cut off the aura of Shu, and write about Changzhou. Take the essence of it. , condensed in Changyuan, the emperor is in full bloom. The begonia blooms slowly, and Bashu is uniquely fragrant; the orchid blooms in full bloom, leaving the tree with fragrance for a long time. Beside the crying river, the beach turns to look at the mother; the evil dragon goes to the sea, slowly entering the Sichuan River. The fish swims in the shallow bottom, and the heron Skimming the sky, all the farmers are busy; green bamboos are clumps, smoke is curling up, it is heaven on earth. Some men are handsome, some are girls, some have good books, some have a long and healthy life. The future is like the sea, and the days ahead are long."
After finishing reciting, Xi Erniang stared at Zhao Ping and asked: "Xiao Langjun, did you write this poem?"
This is a beautiful little lady, about the same age as herself.
He was actually able to recite his favorite works.
Zhao Ping couldn't help but feel excited, so he nodded and said: "Of course I wrote it. Do you think the article is not well written?"
Xi Erniang shook her head, looked at her brother, then at Zhao Ping, and then said: "The writing is very spiritual. After seeing this poem, I was thinking whether the author is as old as my brother. Just as handsome, so I came to Zhaojiazhuang out of curiosity, wanting to see the true face of Mount Lu."
Zhao Ping suddenly felt that this little lady was so funny, so he smiled and said, "Very disappointed, right?"
Xi Erniang nodded, stared at Zhao Ping seriously and said, "I'm really disappointed. This author is too young, about the same age as one of my younger brothers. I really want to open his head and see what he thinks. , can you write such a spiritual poem?"
After saying that, he looked at his somewhat embarrassed brother, then looked at the house in front of him, and said: "Seeing everything in Zhaojiazhuang makes me want to see how the little man's head looks like. Not to mention these are We can't think of it, even the officials want to come up with it. But."
Here, she suddenly changed her tone and looked at the doors marked with various departments outside the courtyard.
She gently asked a question that Zhao Ping had not thought of: "Xiao Langjun, I want to ask a question. There seems to be no one at the doors outside. I wonder if Xiao Langjun can tell the little girl?"
Zhao Ping couldn't help but be shocked. This little woman's observation ability was so strong that these aspects were also seen.
So he smiled and said: "Little lady, now that you have seen it, I wonder if there is any solution?"
Xi Erniang nodded, blinked her eyes quickly, put down the jar and came to her brother's side.
She pulled her brother's sleeves and looked up at him, her big eyes blinking.
Then he asked: "Brother, I believe you can find a way, right, my good brother."
After saying that, he kept shaking Xi Xing's sleeves.
Xi Xing was defeated by her, and he had liked this clever little girl since he was a child, so he nodded.
He looked at Zhao Ping and said: "Junior brother, Brother Yu has also seen this situation. He is thinking of ways to write letters to his classmates in the same year and let them come and visit Zhaojiazhuang. I believe that after visiting Zhaojiazhuang, there will be many people left behind. few."
Zhao Ping couldn't help but be overjoyed, stepped forward and bowed deeply to Xi Xing, and said, "Thank you so much, senior brother. Zhaojiazhuang is the most lacking of talents now. Alas, thousands of troops are easy to come by, but talents are hard to find."
Xi Xing hurriedly returned the gift and said: "The one who should really be grateful is Brother Yu. I would like to thank my junior brother for his kindness to Brother Yu's family."
Just as the two were being polite to each other, the voice of Xi Erniang suddenly came:
"Young Master, do you have any ulterior motives in giving such a precious gift to my mother?"
Zhao Ping couldn't help but be stunned. Looking at this beautiful and intelligent little lady who was about the same size as Cuizhu, he became more and more interested.
He looked at her with his chin propped up and said with a smile: "Little lady, tell me, what are my intentions for you?"
Xi Erniang hugged the jar tightly and looked at her sister, who turned her head and looked away.
She gritted her teeth and said: "There was once a doctor who said that ten pounds of donkey-hide gelatin could cure my mother's disease, but he required that one of his sisters must be his concubine. That doctor was so annoying. She is about the same age as me, Weng Weng. She actually asked one of her sisters to be her concubine."
"My mother was so angry that she almost hanged herself, so she didn't let the old man succeed. Now the young man also gave me twenty kilograms of donkey-hide gelatin, does he have such a plan?"
After saying that, his cunning eyes kept looking at Zhao Ping and his sister.
Xi Niang couldn't help but blush, stamped her feet angrily, then covered her face and ran away.
Zhao Ping couldn't help but be even more stunned, feeling that he was even more unjust than Dou E. He was purely looking for Xi Xing's face.
Unexpectedly, this little lady had such an idea. This thought was too jumping.
After hearing her words, he became a lustful person, and his face turned red.
Although Zhao Ping could rely on his young age to avoid being known as a lecher, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Xi Erniang looked at Zhao Ping's red face with pride and said with a crooked mouth: "Why are you blushing? Could it be that I really got it right? Let's do this. Since you are younger than me, I, this young lady, have to endure all the hardships and give you my concubine."
After saying that, even though she had the courage to say these words, she bowed her head and went down.
After all, she is a twelve-year-old girl, and she feels so shameless that she insists on treating herself as a commodity and being used as a concubine for others.
I don’t know where to put the faces of my parents, my mother-in-law, and my brother.
Xi Xing’s family thought at first that Xi Erniang was really smart, and the family was secretly happy!
But I didn't expect that this young lady who was only twelve years old would say such a thing.
Except for the two younger children, the rest of the family wished they could crawl through a gap in the ground!
But at the same time, the family also had a vague hope.
Zhao Ping also felt that his mind was blank and he didn't know how to deal with this matter.
For a moment, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and the entire space seemed like time had stood still.
Xi Erniang's face was even more pale and she was sweating profusely. If she hadn't been leaning on the desk, she would have almost fainted.
"Why is that little lady so eager to become Zhaojiazhuang's daughter-in-law?"
At this time, a gentle and quiet voice came.
Zhao Ping finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was too depressing and uncomfortable here.
I didn't know how to deal with this matter at all. Rejection not only completely broke a young lady's heart, but also offended her brother.
This is a person who he finally recruited who has the ability to perform exams.
But for agreeing rashly, it can be said that he has almost no understanding of a strange woman.
Zhao Ping looked up and saw Qiu Shuang and Cuizhu pushing the filial mother's car.
Mother is sitting inside wearing a curtain hat.
The three-year-old Miss Xia, who was jumping up and down behind, saw Zhao Ping looking at her mother with a pleading look in her eyes, and her mother nodded.
Miss Xia jumped up to Zhao Ping's side and grabbed the corner of Zhao Ping's clothes tightly with her little hands.
His eyes looked curiously at Xi Erniang, who was still covering her face with her hands.
After the mother met Xi's family, she looked at Xi Erniang and saw that she was still covering her face with her hands.
He couldn't help but laugh and said: "Since she is the daughter-in-law of Zhaojiazhuang, why do you have to cover your face? Then I'm leaving."
Xi Erniang had no choice but to put her hands down, raised her head and lowered her head soon after.
Her face was red and she was holding the corners of her clothes with both hands. It was obvious that she kept saying that she wanted to be Zhao Ping's concubine.
But when I met my future mother-in-law, I still felt guilty.
Mother looked at Xi Erniang and couldn't help but compare it with the green bamboo beside her.
Although her skin is not as fair as Cuizhu's, Guazi's face has willow-leaf eyebrows, and her big eyes look particularly smart, her nose is high and her lips are like foam.
Mother nodded slightly, and then asked softly: "Second mother, don't panic. I heard that you like Ping'er's poems. In addition to "Changyuan Fu", do you also like Ping'er's poems?"
After hearing that it was a poem, Xi Erniang's pounding heart finally calmed down.
She first sent a blessing to her mother, and then replied: "Let me tell my mistress, this slave likes the poem "Drunken Spring Breeze" the most."
There was no emotion in my mother's tone, and she asked calmly: "Why?"
Xi Erniang came forward again and said, "I'm telling my mistress, Drunk Spring Breeze is full of poetic and picturesque flavor, and it vividly displays the characteristics of this new green tea. It is a rare masterpiece among Xiao Langjun's advertising poems."
After saying that, Xi Erniang looked at her mother and then looked at Zhao Ping secretly. She didn't know how Zhao Ping understood these words.
The mother nodded, and then saw her secretly looking at Zhao Ping. Without comment, she still asked in a faint voice: "How did Er Niang understand Ping'er's poems?"
Xi Erniang respectfully took out a book from her arms. It turned out to be a selection of poems and poems by previous students published by the county school. Zhao Ping remembered that four of his poems were selected, which seemed to account for ten percent of the total.
Seeing this, Zhao Ping couldn't help but take a closer look at this little Luo Li. Seeing that she admired him so much, he felt somewhat proud.
Mother looked at Zhao Ping and Xi Erniang lightly, and then asked lightly: "Can you recite other poems?" Xi Erniang thought for a while, and then softly chanted:
"On the top of the mountain lost in fog, there is an ancient temple in Songzang, and green waves lie on the small bridge. On both sides of the bank are green bamboos, and a small boat scatters Qiong Yao ten miles away. Egrets disappear from the sky. The long embankment spits frost and snow, and the sound shakes the sky. The stream flows on the silver beach, and shrimps and crabs move. Horizontally, around the shallow reef.
The dangerous building hangs on the cliff. Look at the city gates with all their arches, and the green tiles setting off the waves. The waterwheel turns slowly, the sound of books is heard in the school, and the streets are far away. The painted walls are made of high blue bricks. There are yellow orchids inside the wall, and fragrant fragrance floats outside the wall. On the first day of the new year, dragons and lions dance on stilts. "
Waiting for Xi Erniang to finish reciting the words, she nodded and said, "This is a long word. You can complete it, which is obviously because you have put in the effort. You are handsome, thoughtful, talented, polite, and well-behaved. You can be Ping'er's side chamber." .Ping'er, you can't let this go."
Zhao Ping nodded, raised his hands and solemnly said to his mother: "I obey."
Then he came to Xiyang and Xi's mother, saluted solemnly, and said, "Uncle and aunt, please rest assured that my nephew will treat my second mother well. We will never abandon you when we are together in this life."
Xiyang and his wife were so excited that they did not expect that their daughter would actually become Zhao Ping's future concubine.
At this time, the whole family finally came over in fear, and the ending seemed to be perfect.
Although it was a side room, after all, the mistress of Zhaojiazhuang agreed, and she was the first one.
Even if the big house comes over in the future, he won’t dare to look down upon it.
Zhao Ping then glanced at Xi Erniang, never expecting that he was single just now.
Now suddenly there is a nominal unmarried side room.
When Xi Erniang saw Zhao Ping looking at her, she lowered her head in embarrassment and covered her face with her hands.
But his eyes betrayed him, and they secretly looked at Zhao Ping through the gaps between his fingers!
