Chapter 282: Diverting trouble to the east
"Mother, you should take care of my second brother's affairs first. He hasn't married yet. I'm not in a hurry!" Shan Xi diverted the blame.
Anyway, she hasn't thought about getting married yet.
And what she said was not wrong! The second brother hadn't even married his second sister-in-law yet, so why was she in such a hurry?
Shan Heng, who was on duty, suddenly sneezed.
When his subordinates saw him like this, they hurriedly asked, "Boss, what's wrong with you?"
Shan Heng rubbed his nose and said, "Maybe I caught a cold." Then he sneezed loudly again.
The subordinate looked up at the sky, then looked at his boss, thinking, this temperature is too cold? Could this boss have gone crazy from training?
"Don't worry about your second brother's affairs! Mother has already made up her mind. After a while, I will find a chance to talk to your second brother, and the matter will be almost settled."
She cares a lot about the children's affairs and does not favor one over another.
"Really?" Shan Xi's originally listless expression suddenly became more energetic. His eyes became more shrewd. The raging fire of gossip immediately burned up.
"Whose girl is she?"
"Why are you asking so many questions?" Lou did not intend to answer her daughter's question.
This matter has not been finalized yet, and there are many things that cannot be said, in case something unexpected happens and it brings bad reputation to the girl's family.
"I just want to know what happened. I won't go out and tell anyone." Shan Xi still wanted to know which girl his mother had found for his second brother.
She is really looking forward to meeting her second sister-in-law.
If there were another person similar to her elder sister-in-law, she would be so happy!
"Don't worry about things that have nothing to do with you. You should worry about yourself." Lou held down her eager daughter and continued, "I have thought about it seriously. Your husband doesn't need to be too noble or have a huge fortune. Just someone who is good enough will do. The main thing is to find someone who can treat you well and live a good life with you."
I know a little bit about my own daughter.
She is not suitable to be a clan wife, so it would be best for her to find a man from a simple family, preferably one with the youngest child.
If you are not the eldest daughter-in-law, you don’t have to bear a lot of unnecessary responsibilities.
The best thing is to be a favored daughter-in-law.
"Stop!" Shan Xi made a stop gesture with her hand, "Mom, I don't want to hear these words for the time being. I'm going to find my sister-in-law. I heard that the small kitchen in Chixiaoyuan has made new food. I'll go try the taste first. If it's delicious, I'll bring some back for you!"
After saying this, Shan Xi didn't care about Lou's expression, and ran out of her yard with Xiao Xi and Xiao Le, leaving Lou sitting there.
"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Are you there?" Shan Li called out before entering Chixiao Courtyard, as if she was afraid that others would not know she was here.
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, a little ball bumped into her.
The force was quite strong and almost knocked her to the ground.
"Pretty auntie, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it." Xiao Yuer also sat down on the ground due to the sudden collision.
However, he didn't care about his pain and quickly got up from the ground and apologized.
Shan Xi was in a hurry to get to Chixiao Courtyard, so he didn't pay attention. Xiao Yu'er was short, so the two of them bumped into each other.
"It's okay! Auntie knows you didn't mean it." This was not the first time Shan Xi had met Xiao Yu'er.
She still knew what kind of character this child was.
"Pretty auntie, did Xiaoyuer hurt you?" Xiaoyuer was still worried.
He saw that his beautiful aunt's skirt was soiled.
"It's okay. Auntie, it doesn't hurt." In fact, it still hurts a little, but when I saw Xiaoyuer's self-blaming expression, the words on my lips changed.
"Where is Xiao Yu'er going?" Shan Xi still knew something about the situation.
Xiaoyuer's mother, Mrs. Li, is now helping her sister-in-law with work in the Moon Viewing Tower.
Xiao Yuer was left in the general's mansion to be raised.
However, his daily activities are either in the guest house where he currently lives, or in Chixiao Courtyard.
She had never seen anyone so flustered before.
"I need to study!" Xiao Yuer said, patting the small schoolbag hanging on his body.
Study?! Shan Xi was confused.
There was indeed a teacher in their general's mansion. All of these children had studied there. Now, only the youngest brothers and sisters were still attending classes.
Could it be that this little fish also went to study with us?
But that's not right! What time is it now? The teacher's classes are usually in the morning. It's already afternoon, is there still a class?
"Where is Xiao Yu'er going to study?" Shan Xi asked casually with doubt in his mind.
"Go to your big friend." Xiao Yuer answered all the questions.
My aunt said that a child who answers every question is a good child.
"Big friend?!" Shan Xi was even more confused.
"Pretty aunt, it's too late, I'm leaving first!" After saying that, Xiao Yu'er left quickly without caring about Shan Xi's expression.
In a flash, his shadow disappeared.
Yin Ping also came to the gate of the courtyard at this time, bowed to Shan Xi and said, "Miss, my young mistress is waiting for you inside. Please come in."
"Okay!" After saying that, Shan Xi stopped thinking about Xiao Yu'er and went in directly.
When Shan Xi saw Song Qingci, he started to complain.
She originally thought that her sister-in-law would stand on her side, but she didn't expect that her sister-in-law would be on the same side as her mother.
"You seem to be in good health now, but after all, the injured part was your heart. You should really pay attention to it." Song Qingci knew that this cold was not only caused by wind and cold, but also by wind and heat.
Moreover, wind-heat colds are more harmful to the body and more difficult to cure.
With Dan Xi's current weak heart, it's better to be careful.
"Yinping, go tell the ice cellar later not to send ice to the young lady's room anymore." Song Qingci decided to stop this little girl from thinking of doing anything naughty.
She is the head of the household now, and the food, clothing and other expenses of the mansion are all decided by her words.
"Sister-in-law!" Shan Xi wanted to cry now, but she had no tears at all.
She regretted why she had fallen into the trap.
She had originally planned to pretend to obey, but now she had no chance.
"Although you can't use an ice basin anymore, you can still have a smoothie once in a while. Once every three days." In fact, the human stomach prefers cold things. Because hot things will destroy stomach acid. It's not good for the stomach.
Eating a smoothie once every three days is harmless to Shan Xi's body.
Shan Xi, who had been in despair just now, suddenly became energetic again!
She asked with sparkling eyes, "Really?"
