MTL - Love Like the Galaxy-Chapter 18

On the day after Zhengdan, everything is fine, including quarrels.

Shaoshang was writing at the time of the incident. She glanced at the copybook after writing, and then looked at the copybook after drawing. Her tired forehead was faintly sweating. She had noticed these days that these words seemed to be closer to hieroglyphics, each word like a small stick figure. 'Water' is a few curved lines, like water flow, 'River' means there are houses and mountains and forests next to the water, and 'eat' means that there is a small bowl in front of the lines in the shape of lips and throat.

She put down her pen and turned over the wooden slips next to the case. This is an interesting folk story brought to her from the market by Cheng Zong a few days ago. Each slice is about three inches wide and four or five inches long. Very flat, with small burrs on the edges—the ones used by ordinary people are naturally not as smooth as the bamboo slips in the palace. Unexpectedly, Shaoshang likes it more and more, because she knows more than 95% of the words on it.

Also, she has some idea.

Such as copybooks, classics, genealogy, and even among scholars, officials and scholars, most of them still use the former picture-like text; The font has become very popular. And this type of font, even if it is separated by several time and space, it is estimated that people all over the country can automatically convert it without hindrance. However, she still has to study the former language seriously, after all, it is useful to read relevant literature.

Shao Shang sighed, picked up the pen and continued to draw on the bamboo slips, while Ah Li looked at her with loving eyes, while roasting bamboo slips piece by piece by the stove. Common writing carriers in this era included cloth, silk, brocade, and even bronze ware, but the most common ones were wood and bamboo. Mrs. Xiao is diligent and thrifty in her family, and does not allow her children to be extravagant and wasteful. Therefore, all the wood chips and bamboo slips used by Shao Shang to practice calligraphy are written and washed, then dried and baked, and then threaded with hemp rope to continue using. In order to facilitate cleaning, the ink used for writing calligraphy is made of soot resin mixed with bran pulp, which is naturally not black, bright and fragrant, so Shao Shang added the piece of pine smoke ink that Cheng Yong gave her.

Mrs. Xiao is the kind of boss who only asks about performance and not working hours, so the excuse of 'do you know how hard she works' is a joke.

Sang's elder brother Sang Yu 'reminisces about the old'. Cheng Cheng wiped his face with cold water as soon as he heard it, but Cheng Zhi was reluctant—he could see his brother-in-law all these years, so there was nothing to tell, not to mention that he wanted to paint the most popular eyebrows in the capital for his wife today. After being glared by Cheng Shi, he realized that he had no choice but to follow the excited second brother in front of him.

Mother Cheng hasn't woken up from the hangover, but even if she wakes up, she will probably be groggy for a whole day. Mrs. Xiao led Cheng Hao to arrange today's affairs for the servants - originally being a housewife was not a hands-on thing, she did it to teach Cheng Hao.

Sang made a few snacks by himself, gathered his three little children and the second child of Zhuo together, told the little stories to the children leisurely, and led them to do it together The game recites nursery rhymes.

On the other hand, Cheng Yong wanted to visit his master's classmate, but Cheng Song said that those Confucian scholars must not have been released to the emperor, so it is better to go to Uncle Wan to ask for some wine, the two brothers could not argue, So the third brother was caught and used for divination. Cheng Shaogong just took out the tortoise shell for divination, and before he could pinpoint the location, a maid came to report 'Mrs. Xiao passed the three sons to the main hall of the queen'. The three brothers are all stupid.

Cheng Song sighed: "What did you two do wrong again?"

Cheng Song was furious: "If I knew earlier, it would be better to go anywhere today than to stay at home!"

Cheng Shaogong said to the entourage beside him: "Go and invite the third aunt to come too." Yesterday Zhengdan just passed, and Mrs. Xiao had to train people again. Obviously, it is not a trivial matter. It's safer to find.

, Sang Shi, who arrived early, and the worried Mrs. Qing Li, were sitting beside her. Cheng Cha lowered her head and knelt on the left with Mother Fu. What was more amazing was Shao Shang, who actually sat alone on her knees. Right next to the center position - isn't the protagonist today their brother?

Not waiting to enter the door, only to hear Mrs. Xiao angrily questioning Shaoshang: "...you have done a good job! I thought you were just ignorant, but I didn't expect you to be narrow-minded and covet other people's things! "

Shao Shang is really confused: "Mum, why don't you say it clearly, I have been studying calligraphy since morning, and I haven't even opened the door, what can I do?"

Sang Shi smiled and said, "Yes, I don't know what happened. I wanted to invite you to taste the sugar bait I made, but I didn't want to..." She scolded Cheng Shaogong in her stomach and spread the word It didn't make sense, leaving her stunned for a while.

Mrs. Xiao asked Shaoshang: "How can you rob your cousin's things?" Then she turned her head and said to Mrs Sang, "You don't know. I went to her residence to rest, but I was seeing this wicked servants fighting and hurting people at the house, trying to **** a red sandalwood book case!"

Cheng Yong outside the door and Shao Shang inside the door were surprised together—a book case? !

While she was talking, Mrs. Qing Li's maid had brought five or six servants with bruised noses and bruised faces from the back hall to the hall. Her hair was also messed up, her clothes were torn apart, and her face was full of snot and tears.

Shao Shang smiled and said: "I just asked you to carry back the bookcase given to me by the eldest brother this morning, and also allocated some people to you, how did you make it like this, you are going to rob the money shop Is it?"

Sang shi looked at her with great interest, Mrs. Xiao's anger few people can bear, this little girl is calm.

Mrs. Xiao was surprised when she heard this: "Is that the bookcase that Zisu gave you?"

Besides Cheng Cha, Mother Fu said, "Maybe the eldest son gave Si Niangzi a book case, but the red sandalwood book case might not be." Lian Fang Ji Cried: "It's that bookcase, that's it!"

The mother Fu smiled and said, "Since the eldest son gave it to the fourth lady, why did he come to our daughter? This is not the way to go." Cheng Cha, who was beside him, blushed anxiously, and said softly: " Mother Fu, don't say it, don't say it."

Lianfang hurriedly said: "It was the calamus who told me to move there!"

Shao Shang saw that the lotus room was also beaten hard, his left eye was red and swollen, his cheeks were high and swollen, and he couldn't speak easily, so he smiled: "It's not easy, let my cousin See if the book case is yours, won't it be clear?"

Mother Fu rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Fourth Niangzi doesn't know. When we came out of Ge's house, we bought a lot of things over there, many of which are not even recognized by our daughter-in-law."

Cheng Yong outside the door couldn't bear it any longer, and said loudly: "Then move it and let me see if it's my book case, I still know it!" He strode into the hall.

But she didn't know that Mrs. Xiao used to be accustomed to scolding one son and arresting the other sons as an observer. If one person made the same mistake, the others were not allowed to make it again, and the results were very good. Mrs. Xiao had withdrawn her anger at this time, and waved her sons to sit down in order on the right side.

As soon as Cheng Yong sat down, he immediately cupped his hands and said: "Mum, I did give a bookcase to the curling, it is the red sandalwood carving with the unicorn head that Shangguan master gave to his son, you can also see It's too late. It's better to take a look at that bookcase, and you'll know what's right and wrong."

Mrs. Xiao looked a little hesitant, Madam Qing Li pondered for a while, got up and went out quietly.

The mother Fu saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Anyone with a unicorn head? Ouch, the slaves really deserve to die. I was flustered just now and didn't look carefully. If there is a unicorn head carved, it is a long one. No doubt, the son. But why did he come to our place? Could it be..." She glanced at the lotus room, "Could it be that this lowly maid deliberately carried the book case to show off to my daughter-in-law?"

Cheng Yongxin said that this Fu mother is so cunning.

The lotus room cried: "No, no! It's the calamus who told me to move there! It's all the slave's fault, it's the slave's own opinion! The slave has a swaggering heart, who knows how to be deceived!"

Cheng Yong said coldly: "Whether it's showing off or cheating, just ask the maid named Changpu."

Mother Fu said with an apologetic smile: "Eldest son, Calamus has fainted and hasn't woken up yet..."

Cheng Song was already furious, and shouted: "A little bitch, she can't touch her! Splash her with water, burn her with fire, chop two of her fingers, and see if she is still dizzy!"

Mrs. Xiao slapped the table and scolded: "What are you yelling, are you telling me to hear it?" Although she scolded fiercely, she already knew that there was an inside story in her heart, and glanced at her knees Cheng Cha, who was sitting at the bottom left with anxiety, felt pity in her heart, thinking that she couldn't make this honest child suffer grievances.

At this time, Mrs. Qing Li came back, carrying a wet maid behind her, it was Acorus.

Although her name is calamus, this maid has a dignified appearance, her face is kind and stunned, but the lotus house is beautiful and smart, but who knows she is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. The calamus knelt down with a plop, and hurriedly told it all, and with the lotus room interjecting, everyone finally made up the content—

It turned out that this morning, Lianfang directed four or five maids to go to the residence of the son in the front yard to carry books and cases. On the way back, they met Acorus, Lianfang Ai said, Acorus loves to ask, the former has the heart to show off My daughter-in-law was favored, and the latter flattered her face and said, "My daughter-in-law also wants to write a new book case recently, I wonder if I can ask her to see the style."

I'll send it back to you after our young lady has read it. How could the lotus house agree to it, so the two sides started ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-ping-pong-pong-the-table-chair-case-s-s-s-out-LEG-LEG-LEG-LEG Mrs. Xiao looked straight.

"So, it's not that you want to **** something, but you want to **** something?" Cheng Shaogong said coldly.

Mrs. Xiao immediately said, "What are you talking about!"

Cheng Chatai said tearfully, "It's all my fault, the reason is this, I really don't know. I apologize to my brothers and Shaoshang." head.

Mrs. Xiao said: "You have been with me since this morning, what does it have to do with you?"

Cheng Song said indignantly: "That curling has been studying calligraphy since this morning, why is my mother..." Before he could say anything, Cheng Yong held it down and motioned to shut up with his eyes.

Mrs. Xiao muffled for a while, let out a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "The maids in both places are at fault, they are all making their own decisions! Iris, she has her own ideas on whether to use this book case or not. , I want you to make up your own mind?! Lotus room, just move the table when you move the table, what are you doing wandering around! Now this turmoil is caused by you, and you should be punished!"

The mother Fu was very alert, so she quickly came out and kowtowed: "What the lady said is that we are not strict in discipline, and we will teach them well when we go back." Said: "Auntie forgive me, I didn't take care of them..."

Mrs. Xiao comforted a few words, Cheng Cha even cried and apologized. Seeing that the atmosphere was gradually harmonious, all unpleasantness could be wiped away; Madam Xiao went to see her daughter again, and saw Shao Shang kneeling in the center with his head bowed. , without saying a word, not knowing what to think.

Mrs. Xiao was displeased and snorted. The three brothers of the Cheng family hurriedly signaled to the younger sister, and told her to cry twice and say something about the scene - unfortunately, the person who bowed his head couldn't see the wink. Cheng Shaogong was in a hurry, and whispered "Shao Shang" in a low voice!

Shao Shang just woke up from a dream and looked up at everyone blankly. In fact, everyone did not know that she was not in a daze just now, but was thinking about a serious question—

Do you cry like Cheng Cha, begging for forgiveness because she is at fault, and wipe everything away to satisfy Mrs. Xiao, or do she never bow her head and seek justice for herself?

She chose the third way. Fairness has wool, it's better to get some real ones!

The author has something to say:

She was raised, so she naturally thinks that the former has a problem with her character and needs to be corrected, while the latter is trustworthy and amiable.

Of course, there is also the reason of Aunt Ge's previous friendship. .
