Chapter 121 Is my husband enlightened?

There was only a lard lamp lit in the bedroom, which tried its best to emit a huge amount of light, making the room still a little dark.

With this little light, two best friends, Xia Shu and Zhao Yuerong, sat on the bed and chatted. Most of the time, Xia Shu was the one asking questions, and Zhao Yuerong was responsible for answering.

The two were about the same age and seemed to have the same strong curiosity, so Xia Shu had many questions.

It's just that she basically asked questions that were not nutritious, about what she had seen and heard in the capital, or how life in the capital was like.

Zhao Yuerong just stayed at home in the capital. He didn't know anything. He could only talk about what came to mind. There were several houses in the yard and how big the two ginkgo trees were. He bought two servants and a maid to serve him all day long.

Barabara's.

The words were very scattered, but Xia Shu still got a glimpse of this sister-in-law's current life from these few words, which made her very envious.

"It's great. Now we can live a prosperous life like a wealthy family."

Zhao Yuerong nodded vigorously, "Well, it's really rich and luxurious, but it's actually not good either."

Xia Shu was a little puzzled, "Isn't it good to have someone to take care of you?"

"It's not bad, it's just that I feel a little uncomfortable."

"What's so uncomfortable about this? If it were me, I would definitely feel comfortable. It would be great to be taken care of. I don't have to cook, wash and do housework all day long."

As she said that, Xia Shu showed her hands and said, "Sister-in-law, look at my hands, they are all frostbitten. This is what I use to wash clothes in winter. I boiled hot water to wash them and wiped them with pigs all day long.

It’s oily, but it’s still frozen like this.”

The backs of her hands were red. Zhao Yuerong knew very well that this was the result of frostbite. When she was at Zhao's house, her hands would suffer from frostbite every winter due to the cold, and it was much more serious than this. The backs of her hands would crack a lot.

Small cuts can also cause frostbite.

She silently lowered her head and looked at her current hands. They were white and clean, and the calluses on her palms had also faded a lot.

As she was watching, her hand was suddenly caught by Xia Shu, "Look, your hands are so good. It's so cold this winter, but they are still tender and tender, unlike mine."

At the end, Xia Shu pursed her lips and her voice became softer. She was a girl after all. She also wanted to have a pair of small hands with thin skin and tender flesh, but this dream seemed difficult to achieve.

Since her mother passed away two years ago, she has been taking care of all the housework in the family. Xia Shu has nothing against this, but she is still very tired.

She only wanted to live a life of wealth and wealth, and was particularly envious of the young ladies from wealthy families. Now that she saw her little sisters living the life of a young lady, she thought about it even more.

At this time, Zhao Yuerong suddenly took out his hand, then held Xia Shu's hand, and then she began to rub it repeatedly.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

"It will make you feel better after you rub it to warm it up. My husband, this is how I rub my feet when they are cold."

"But you rubbed the lard off my hands."

"."

Zhao Yuerong silently let go of her hand and said why it was greasy.

The lard on the back of her hand was gone. Xia Shu jumped off the bed, pulled her shoes and took out a small box from the window. The lid was opened, and most of the box of solidified lard was inside.

She dug some out of it with her fingers, reapplied it to the back of her hand, and said as she spread it evenly:

"My father was admitted to the Juren Examination, and life at home is much better than before. We can eat meat every day, and there is no shortage of lard. In previous winters, sometimes I couldn't even apply the lard, but my father"

As she said that, Xia Shu suddenly paused, turned to look out the window, then climbed back onto the bed and sat down, then lowered her voice to her sister-in-law:

"Let me tell you, after my father was admitted to the Juren Examination, the threshold of the family was almost broken. There was a period of time when matchmakers came to marry my father every day, and they were all girls who had not left the court. But my father

This man is not smart enough to agree to anything, saying he is afraid that my two brothers and I will be wronged, so he refuses them all."

Now it was Zhao Yuerong's turn to be puzzled. Isn't this good?

"Do you want your uncle to renew their relationship?"

"I hope that if there are more stepmothers in the family, then there will be more women, and someone will help me with the housework, so I don't have to do it myself. But my father doesn't agree, and he is doing it for our own good. As a daughter, I can't

Say something to him."

Xia Shu whispered with regret, "My eldest brother is already enlightened, but my father doesn't know when he will be enlightened."

Xiao Qizi was a little stunned, not quite understanding the meaning of these words, "My husband is enlightened?"

"Well, my eldest brother seems to have become a different person since I got married to you. Zhuangzi says everything. Some say it's because of my sister-in-law's wedding, and some say it's because of the serious illness. If I tell you

You might not believe it if you look at what my brother was like before."

"What is it like?"

Xia Shu put her finger on her lower lip, raised her head and looked at the roof, thinking for a moment, and then said: "I don't like to talk, and I don't go out. I shut myself in the door to read all day long, and I'm very polite.

After my uncle and aunt passed away, my eldest brother couldn't afford to fall ill. My father, my two younger brothers, and I often visited him. But my eldest brother was obviously very ill. He still had to get up from bed and salute my father every time. I

If my father doesn't let me, he will say something about etiquette that cannot be broken, and then he will insist on saying a lot of things that I can't understand.

But my eldest brother was weak at the time and would faint every time he spoke. Later, my father was so frightened that he didn’t dare to go anymore, for fear that something might happen to him.”

Speaking of this, Xia Shu couldn't help but giggle out loud, while Zhao Yuerong opened his eyes wide and looked like he couldn't believe it. It turned out that his previous husband was like this. He didn't like to talk, didn't go out, and locked himself in the room all day long.

Reading, and still very sick.

Thinking of this, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but she soon became proud again. It turned out that her happiness was so useful. After her husband married her, she didn't even look sick at all. Sure enough, she was a blessed woman.

"In my father's words, my eldest brother is a nerd, and his brain goes crazy from reading.

But look at my eldest brother now. Not only has he passed the exam and understood Yuan Gong, he has also become much more interesting than before. As soon as he came back today, he teased his younger brother for fun. He would never have done such a thing before. I'm afraid he would as soon as he walked in.

First, bow to my father properly, and then go to my father's study to study."

"Oh, there's more."

Xia Shu remembered something again, "My eldest brother is still very good at making money. He bought a big yard in the capital and hired a maid to serve you, as well as your clothes."

As she said that, she reached out and touched the coat on Zhao Yuerong's body, and then touched the bijia covering it. The brocade material felt very smooth.

"When you came back today, I didn't dare to recognize you even though you were wearing such fine clothes. I was afraid that I would recognize you as the wrong person. You see, my eldest brother has become more interesting than before. He can earn a lot of money, and he even passed the Xie Yuan examination."

Zhao Yuerong came to his senses at this time, and then proudly added: "My husband can also make many things."

"Build something? Build what?"

".Build firecrackers."

"firecracker?"

"Well, the big firecrackers are all over the temple."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yuerong quickly stopped. Her husband had told her that no one should tell anyone about this, and it should be treated as if it never happened.
