Rebirth of Bamboo Horse VS Bamboo Horse

Chapter 88

It's March, the grass grows, the warblers fly, and the fireworks dazzle the eyes. At this time, the south of the Yangtze River is the most beautiful and gentle, even the wind blowing on the face is as light as a girl tracing the eyebrows and eyes of her lover.On a small boat in the middle of the lake, a dark figure was resting comfortably against the side of the boat. The fishing rod in his hand was lightly moving, obviously a fish was hooked, but he could not be seen moving.

"If you don't close the rod, the bait will be eaten up by these fish." The man in gray said, skillfully leaning the bamboo raft under his feet towards the yacht.

"Just feed the fish, let them use the net to eat boiled fish when they are fattened..." Liu Xu, who was disturbed by his dream, simply threw the fishing rod aside, stretched himself, and found the deck chair next to him to rest. Down.

The youth's voice faded away from the youthful clearness, but it became more magnetic, muttering casually, with an irresistible laziness, like a sleepy cat coquettishly playing with its master, its little paws scratching at the heart softly with every move. Yes, it's itchy.

"Okay, okay, feed the fish, feed the fish." Liu Kaiteng would not argue with him, waved his attendants to go down, and lay down next to Liu Xu, hugging Chunsun's hair dryer to bask in the sun.

I have to say that his family Xuxu is the best at enjoying himself. In this kind of neither hot nor cold weather, lying on the yacht with the slight ups and downs of the lake, away from human voices, and smelling the moist water vapor, it is really a good place to sleep.Liu Kaiteng hugged this one in his arms, at first he was thinking about how to speak, but he also became sleepy after a while.

But he forgot, Liu Xu didn't forget: "Have they finished copying their books?"

"How is it possible?" Liu's father, who almost forgot the business, was secretly ashamed, and pleaded, "I asked before lunch, and only Mengmeng wrote it more smoothly, but it was only ten times, let alone the two younger ones." Yes. I can’t eat until I finish writing. I guess our baby will be starving. Didn’t you see that Xiao Ning and Xiao Bin’s wrists are red. Or, let’s reduce it, don’t do it three hundred times, three times Ten times?"

"Can they be taught a lesson thirty times?" Liu Xu snorted coldly, "Do you think these three are the two of us? If you live a lifetime and no one will teach you what you should understand? These three are real children! These three years You let it go, your parents dote on you, and your grandparents will confess them sooner. If I'm not strict, do you want to raise three devil kings?"

"Actually, they didn't do anything too extreme...it seems..." Liu Kaiteng, who was trying to make persistent efforts, hesitated under Liu Xu's half-smile gaze.

"It wasn't really too much before." Liu Xu deliberately emphasized the word "special", "It's just shaved snow balls, plucked the parrot's tail to make shuttlecocks, roasted koi in the lake to feed the garden dogs, and rode a broken dog. Torn the legs of three cranes, played with fire and burned down several pavilions..."

As the crime became more and more serious, Liu Kaiteng's smile became more and more difficult, and he roared in his heart, these little bastards asked him to intercede, no matter what!

"Don't be depressed, I only found out about these things after someone checked them out before. If they hadn't gotten into trouble and went outside this time, their parents would have helped them hide it well." Liu Xu held on Sighing, "No matter how easy our work is, we always have to go out for two months a year. These little things are also cute. When we are at home, we are like rabbits. Once we leave, we will go crazy."

"Copy! Copy him five hundred times!" Feeling cheated and abandoned, Liu's father angrily switched to Liu Xu's camp, and insidiously urged Liu Xu to increase the punishment.

"That's not necessary, they will probably starve to death after copying it five hundred times." He waved his hand, vetoing this inhuman suggestion, turned over to find a comfortable position, closed his eyes and sighed, "I'm just out of breath, All of them are tall but not brainy, and they were found out for beating people! Co-authoring these years of historical stories are all for nothing, I don’t know if you want to do bad things without leaving traces, is it better to use your brains?”

"..." Liu Kaiteng was silent, and rubbed the soft hair of the other party speechlessly. Sure enough, this is the main point of your anger.

"Okay, don't worry too much, these little guys still have their hearts, at most at night, there will be rescuers." As if thinking of something, Liu Xu curled the corner of his mouth to show that these little things It's not completely hopeless.

Sure enough, as soon as the two returned to the shore, they heard that Madam He had brought the young master over and were drinking tea in the Madam's courtyard.

Because Mrs. He said that she came to talk to Liu Xiu, Liu Changsheng, who was still busy at the company, was not there. When Liu Xu and Liu Kaiteng entered the door, they saw two mothers talking happily, and a five or six-year-old child was sitting aside with a straight face. , seemingly listening to the two of them very seriously.After discovering that the two had entered, his eyes lit up, and his expression became much more lively.

"Auntie, Mom." Liu Xu leaned over and patted the child's head. Every time he saw the child, he seemed to see a serious version of the little peacock, and couldn't help but want to tease him, "Sheng Ye is here too?"

"Hello, Uncle Xu, hello, Uncle Teng." He Shengye got up to greet him, but the address made Liu Kaiteng a little toothache.

This He Shengye is Mrs. He's old son. On the day of Liu Mengmeng's full moon ceremony, Mrs. He laughed and said that she wanted the little girl to be her grandson-in-law, but in fact, even if He Shengwen wanted to let go, it was impossible to get married and have children right away.The boss of the He family is married, but there is only one daughter in the family.He Shengwen's younger sister is still in school and has no plans to get married before graduating from university, so it is certain that the third generation male of the He family is younger than Liu Mengmeng.

Although it is said that the third-year female junior holds a golden brick, Liu Xu is actually not very optimistic about the relationship between siblings, the more the difference is, the more unreliable it is.So let's forget about it, and no one takes it seriously when you say I'm happy.I don't want Mrs. He to feel uncomfortable not long after returning from the full moon ceremony. The family doctor came to see, Madam, you are pregnant!

The He family couple, who are in their 40s, really can’t laugh or cry. Of course, Mr. He still has a little pride... After discussing and seeing the healthy medical examination report, the two decided to give birth. Anyway, the children are grown up. Having a child to take care of also saves loneliness.

So in the second year, all members of the Liu family went to the He family to drink the full moon wine, and returned the gift money. Liu Mengmeng had an uncle who was ten months younger than her.Ordinarily that would be the end of it here, Mrs. He was talking about the grandson's wife, He Shengye and Liu Mengmeng were inferior, even if the two had a good time, everyone didn't care too much.

Then last year on Liuxu's 25th birthday, someone who wanted to talk to Mengmeng came over to talk about whether Mengmeng liked XXX's jokes, He Shengye overheard.The little friend He Shengye, who has been confused about the difference between granddaughter-in-law and daughter-in-law and thus firmly believes that Mengmeng is his fiancée, blew up. He dragged Liu Mengmeng to the stage aggressively, declared his ownership with immature words, and then followed the TV series. Acting, took a bite of Liu Mengmeng, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, Xiao Ning and Xiao Bin warmly applauded and said "encore"...

After being shocked for a moment, everyone present couldn't help laughing, Liu Xu and Liu Kaiteng went up and hugged the four little troublemakers while laughing.

But the two who had long forgotten their childhood didn't know that it was scary for a child to be stubborn. For example, after that day, He Shengye followed Liu Mengmeng, calling Liu Kaiteng Papa and Liu Xu Papa.Mr. He and Mrs. He were in all kinds of confusion. After taking their son home and emphasizing the issue of seniority over and over again, they became more and more determined about the child He Shengye's idea of ​​being a wife.It's too early to call father father, then call uncle!

No matter what they said, He Shengye just didn't listen, and the adults who couldn't compare to the stubbornness of the children gave up and let it go.It's just that every time He Shengye called them uncles, Liu Kaiteng who reminded them that this little thing had plans for their daughter was really a stomachache and a toothache.

Liu Xu is different from Liu Kaiteng in this aspect, he thinks that regardless of seniority, He Shengye is pretty good.It may be that there are many brothers and sisters in the family, and they are much older than him. Under the influence of brothers and sisters, this little thing is much more mature than children of the same age.She doesn't like to talk, doesn't express much, but she is not introverted, especially when she really wants what she wants, she even takes good care of Xiao Min and Xiao Bin.Watching the two little guys get along, he can always find the shadow of him and Liu Kaiteng in the past, wondering if they were so fun when they were young?

Of course, the most important thing is that Mengmeng doesn't hate him.

As the eldest lady of the Liu family, this girl was raised in honey water. The pampering of her family, the respect of her servants, and the humility of her playmates made her develop a temperament of being self-respecting.Fortunately, when the child reached the age of enlightenment, Liu Xu stopped pampering him blindly, and completed the transformation from a "loving mother" to a "strict mother" in the shortest possible time, and he was never relentless in educating the child—this is why the three little things in the Liu family took care of Liu Kaiteng He called him father, because Liu Xu called him father.Therefore, although the three children have many common problems of rich and noble children, such as coquettishness, extravagance, and arrogance, their natures are not bad.After the children turned seven years old, Liu Xu planned to let them learn to support themselves. In short, he didn't plan to raise a prodigal dude.

The three of Mengmeng, who have a good family background and a high reputation, have always been very popular, but not many can catch their eyes. As for the one who can subdue the domineering queen Liu Mengmeng, besides Liu Xu and Liu Kaiteng, there is only one He Shengye.It's no wonder that Liu Kaiteng has a toothache and stomachache, and he still wants to speak ill of him in Liu Xu's ear trying to separate the two little guys, he is just jealous!

"Uncle Xu, where are Mengmeng and Xiaoning Xiaobin?" Seeing that the two uncles just looked at him and didn't speak, He Shengye had no choice but to ask for it himself, "Can I go find them?"

"They made a mistake and are copying the book for punishment in the study room. Xiao Ye waits for them to finish copying before going." Curving the corners of his mouth, Liu Xu's smile is incomparably elegant in the eyes of those who don't know it. In the eyes, it is the smile of the devil.He Shengye knew the three children very well, so he naturally understood.

"But Mengmeng beat those two people because they bullied Xiaoning. Didn't Uncle Xu teach us to retaliate with an eye for an eye? The saint also said how to repay kindness with kindness." But no matter how terrible it is, for his family Mengmeng, He Shengye still went forward bravely without hesitation.

"Xiaoye still knows how to repay kindness with kindness? Then you come and explain to uncle, what is planning before acting? What is thinking twice before acting? What is mental calculation without intention? What is borrowing a knife to kill?"

"...Xu Xu, you will teach the children badly like this!" Looking at Mrs. He and his mother with strange expressions, Liu Kaiteng stroked his forehead in pain.

He Shengye was still confused at the beginning, the idiom teacher had already told them, and they had read the short stories many times... But why did Uncle Xu put them together?Seeing Liu Xu with a weird smile in the midst of entanglement, He Shengye suddenly realized something, his eyes lit up: "Uncle Xu said——"

"Okay, go and explain to the three little idiots, and change the transcription into these words." Interrupting the excited little guy, Liu Xu put down his teacup, motioned for the helper to take him there, and then looked at the helpless three people , coughed, and looked serious, "I'm also teaching them to be smart, how can our children be bullied by others?"

These four little guys have always been bullying others. When have you ever seen them being bullied? Yesterday, the kid just said that Xiao Ning was beautiful and that it was a girl's joke, so he was beaten until his nose bleeds a lot... …

The expressions of the three of them changed from helpless to powerless, so the child is unreliable because of this unreliable father...

The author has something to say: Promise Qingfeng Xu Xingqin's Little Theater of the Third World

the first

Cheng Yu has always hoped to have a home of his own, so he treats his parents and brothers kindly, and gives money and positions, even though they never regard themselves as relatives.Before Cheng Yu moved abroad, he was already discouraged by them, and he no longer asked for anything, and only paid a small amount of living expenses every month.

After Cheng Yu's death, they were excited. Cheng Yu had no heirs, so the inheritance would naturally belong to them!But after finding a lawyer, I found out that Cheng Yu had already donated most of his property to various charitable organizations, and a small part was also entrusted to professional financial institutions. All they could get was the monthly living expenses and medical expenses when he was sick.

So Cheng Yu's relatives were overjoyed after Cheng Yu's death, and after scolding Cheng Yu for having mental problems for a while, life returned to calm.Parents have no worries about food and clothing throughout their lives, but after the old man dies, the money stops.The younger brothers and sisters, who are used to being lavish with money, scolded their mothers angrily, but they had to find ways to make a living and support their families.

Cheng Yu's lover, after Cheng Yu's death, did not get his inheritance as he wished, and his originally affluent life had to change from extravagance to frugality because of the lack of a benefactor.There is still some ability, but it can't be as good as what he thinks in case, he has no good place to go, and returns to the country in despair.

In the end, I really couldn't get used to living a simple life. With a good appearance, I first flirted with a rich woman, and finally broke up with both men and women.Thinking of Cheng Yu, who was Plato with him at that time and still responsive to him, this male version of the little white flower finally regretted it, but it was too late.

The only tomb that could prove Cheng Yu's visit was already covered with weeds because no one took care of it. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't know there was a monument here.

second generation

After Haiming's death, the son of the Su family became the head of the family, and he was very proud. Although his ability was not as good as that of Haiming, the business of the Su family was not as prosperous as before, but the starved camel was bigger than the horse, which did not affect the life of the new head.

Although Haiming's biological parents lost Haiming's care, the new head of the family never treated them badly in order to show his tolerance.

It seems that Su Haiming, the concubine who almost took over the power of the Su family, never appeared.

As for the decline of the Su family decades later, that is still too far away, no one would have thought of it.

third generation

Qingrui died, Min Yue died, and Ling Muran was also killed after Qing Min ascended the throne. No one would really trust such a slave who betrayed the original owner.

Qingrui forced the palace to commit treason and committed a heinous crime. Qingmin flogged his corpse and was not allowed to enter the imperial mausoleum.

The people under Prince Rui obeyed and lived, those who rebelled died, and the imperial city was bleeding.

The old emperor was killed by the wind and cold after more than a year as the Supreme Emperor, and Qingmin became more and more comfortable as the emperor.

Fifty years later, the Qing Dynasty fell.

In the history books, there is no Prince Qing Chaorui alone.

Fanwaiji

Tourists who have been traveling in Hong Kong in the past two days have found that there are many leaflets for crash courses in Chinese studies on the street. When shopping, they often encounter foreigners talking to themselves. Listen carefully, huh?Are you actually reciting ancient poems?

Curiously inquiring with the tour guide, it turns out that Arden is about to recruit new people.

Everyone in Arden knows that the most important thing about a well-known multinational group is that the boss is Chinese.It is mainly engaged in automobile manufacturing, luxury goods such as clothing, cosmetics and perfumes, and retail department stores, which almost meet all the needs of people for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Although they have earned a lot of money from the Chinese people, compared with the cruelty to foreigners, there are also companies like China X Oil and China X Chemical that can only carry their guns in their nests and lose their braids as soon as they go abroad. Everyone is still very content. of.

So what if BMW and Mercedes-Benz were created by you, now they belong to Arden and are from China, we can buy the goods you bought for 34 for [-]!Don't be unhappy, who told you to sell it if you didn't have the vision to sell it?It's still cheap, dear~

Those who came back to their senses continued to be puzzled, Arden is very powerful, yes, the Hong Kong company as the headquarters has a very high threshold, but what does this have to do with the training of Chinese culture?Ah, no, didn't you say that Arden's headquarters are all promoted from within?How did you recruit new people this year?

The tour guide curled her lips: "It is said that the system has been changed slightly, and internal employees still have a competitive advantage, but especially outstanding non-company employees are also welcome to recommend themselves. Those who pass two rounds of written tests and two rounds of interviews can directly enter Hong Kong. Headquarters, Chinese Studies is a compulsory subject."

"Isn't this bullying those foreigners?" A woman with exquisite makeup frowned at a foreigner who had just walked away.

"Maybe they bully us, why don't we go back? I started to learn English in primary school, and I have to pass CET-[-] or CET-[-] in college. I don't understand. If you don't speak English, you will die or something?" Another girl in the same team sneered. He said aloud, "I'm still Arden, what's wrong with the international lingua franca? You have to listen to me on my territory. It's useless to just speak Chinese, and you have to know how to recite poems. How domineering!" "The two adults of the Liu family are the most powerful~"

"The two adults are deeply in love with each other, so don't be crazy, but the second and third young masters are not famous..." The girl's companion pushed up her glasses, cupped her face and said, "The two young masters are so handsome. Handsome and cute!"

"I agree with the third young master Meng, but the second young master is like an iceberg, so he can't match Meng, and his appearance is more suitable for him, right?" Seeing that the two seem to be of the same interest, the tour guide hurriedly searched for a place for him Passengers are free to move about, while they go to gossip with the two girls.

"It's indeed beautiful, but it's not that the second young master doesn't like this kind of saying... By the way, we have all traveled to Hong Kong. I don't know if there is a chance to see the second and third young masters in real life~"

"It's unlikely. My sister is engaged, and my younger brothers must be busy with preparations. There's no time to go out." The tour guide shrugged helplessly.

"Forget it, I didn't have much hope anyway." The girls sighed, turned their heads and rushed into the mall, and started shopping.Although the largest manufacturer of luxury goods is now in China, women no longer need to flock to duty-free goods because of high tariffs.But Hong Kong, as Arden's headquarters, still has many good things on the market that are not available in the mainland.

At this time, the two young masters of the Liu family who were mentioned were trying on the dresses. The Liu family advocated ancient etiquette, and the He family was also a conservative family. They did not prefer Western etiquette, so Chinese styles were used throughout the wedding.The fifth of the six ceremonies has passed, and the wedding date is set on May [-]th, which is April [-]th in the lunar calendar, which is the day of Lixia.As the younger brother of the natal family, but an important person, the two tried on the clothes while discussing how to teach the groom.

Although He Shengye has taken good care of them since they were young, but every size counts, and he has to pay a price if he dares to cheat their sister away.What's more, the young master of the He family is so kind to them, and it's because of his love for the house and Wu, that is to say, he has already plotted against his sister, so he can't be lenient!

So these two were really taken away by their father?Even the thinking brain circuits are so similar, poor He Shengye has raised such two white-eyed wolves~

Unlike her father and father's early marriage and early childbearing, Liu Mengmeng's marriage age is relatively normal. A girl in her 20s has inherited Liu Xu's elegant and delicate appearance. After all, she is a girl, and her facial features are softer.The voice is soft, the tone is tactful, and the appearance and demeanor are really a fairy-like figure.A pair of almond eyes are pitch-black and shining, just looking at you seems to be being looked at affectionately. Although he is much healthier than Liu Xu in the past, his thin body still has a feeling of fragility, which makes people feel pity.

But the premise is that you don't annoy her, otherwise, the fairy sister will immediately become a queen, and Liu Xu will twitch frequently with that domineering look and words. It's really weird that this kind of expression appears on a face so similar to him. up!

Fortunately, over the years, people have gradually figured out the bottom line of this young lady, and obediently avoided her, so Liu Xu didn't see her daughter's heart-shattering change of face for a long time.

After the two brothers tried on the clothes, seeing that it was getting late, they went to the main courtyard together, preparing to have dinner with the elders.After drinking the tea in the cup, chatting with grandparents and grandparents for a while, Liu Mengmeng also came over after trying on the dress.With the effort of front and rear feet, Liu Kaiteng and Liu Xu came from another direction together.

The whole family had dinner, talking happily, thinking that the eldest daughter/granddaughter will get married soon, everyone in the Liu family was very reluctant to part with them, obviously they were still such a small group yesterday, and they were disliked by Liu Xu The red-skinned monkey is going to marry and have children in a blink of an eye, really...

Both Liu Xu and Liu Kaiteng have no experience in raising children. Although Liu Xu has disciplined the children more these years, it is Liu Xiu, Liu Changsheng, his wife and the four elderly people who take care of them, and their affection for Liu Mengmeng is no worse than that of their parents.

A few people recalled, and at first they were still in the mood to laugh at Liu Mengmeng, but in the end, their eyes were wet.Especially Liu Mian and his wife, who are in their 80s and almost [-]s, although they are still healthy, but thinking about the passing of time, I wonder if they will see all three children get married and have children, which is even more depressing.

Although Liu Kaiteng said a lot of funny words to make the old people happy before they left, it was obvious that everyone was not very interested.

"Let's not talk about them, even I was a little surprised. We're both over the ages..." After washing, Liu Xu changed into pajamas and lay down by the window, reading a book for a while sigh.

"What's wrong with the new year? When you go out and meet children, don't you still call you brother? I'm half a year older than you, so I don't worry about it. Why are you depressed?" Liu Kaiteng lifted Liu Xu up and pulled him to a round stool to sit down, helping him Blowing your hair, "I've said it several times, don't lie down when your hair is dry, let alone blow the night breeze, you just don't listen, you have to wait until you get a headache before you know how to hum."

"You're the one who is humming and you're not a pig!" Liu Xu squinted at him when he heard that, obviously wanting to curse, but his voice was soft and slow, but it was very seductive.

For a person like Liu Xu who is favored by time, the passage of time has not left traces of time on him, but only added to his charm and charm.The appearance is still elegant, and the voice is so magnetic, but the elegance is not what it used to be.It's no wonder that so many men and women want to seduce Liu Kaiteng by virtue of their youth, but they lose without a fight after meeting Liu Xu.

"After Mengmeng gets married, let's go on a trip. It's just the two of us. We haven't had a good time going out after being dragged by these three little things for a long time." Liu Kaiteng, who was in a great mood, leaned over and stole a kiss little things.

"Your daughter and son-in-law are going on their honeymoon, you are not willing to go on a trip, and you are not afraid of being laughed at by your parents." Although he was also a little tempted, Liu Xu, who was dissatisfied with the stolen kiss just now, couldn't help but criticize.

"Laugh, just laugh. If you want me to say, we should just add a younger brother or sister to Mengmeng and the others. When Sheng Ye was born, my uncle and aunt were almost 50, and we are just forty, still young!" Touched Liu Xu's half-dry hair, Liu Kaiteng smiled brightly, "Compared to honeymoon with my daughter and son-in-law, I think having a baby together is more memorable~"

"...Liu Kaiteng, can you be more shameless!" Anxious Liu Xu turned around and wanted to clean up his shameless wife.

"Mur-kill-pro-husband-ah-"

"shut up!"

"Ah, the relationship between these two is still so good..." The maid on duty at the entrance of the courtyard snickered.
