On the last night before entering the Tribute Academy, Shen Xi was sorting out the books in the study, and he was going to select some of them to bring to the Tribute Academy, some of them were used for reference questions, and the rest were used to pass the time of loneliness and boredom. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Lu Xi'er arrived at the Shen family, she was like a fish in water.

The Shen family not only has Shen Xi, whom she has loved since she was a child, but also "Aunt Xie" and "Sister Dai'er", two women who can speak, but she is a little lost, because the young lady who used to be under the same roof is now married and can live with Shen Xi justifiably, and her marriage to Shen Xi seems to be far away.

Shen Xi has been waiting for Hui Niang to come over, he hopes to explain it to Hui Niang face to face, but until the second watch, Hui Niang still did not show up, but Xiao Yu carried the lantern into the study.

"Master, the shopkeeper asked the slave to come over and take the young lady back." Xiao Yu's face was a little embarrassed.

"I don't want it."

When Lu Xi'er, who had been by Shen Xi's side all the time, heard this, she immediately hugged her lover's arm, and she was unwilling to let go.

Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai could somewhat understand Lu Xi'er's reaction, but Yin Wen was a little surprised, today was the first time she had seen Lu Xi'er, and she didn't understand how the girl in front of her, who was a little more beautiful than her, wanted to have a sweetheart with her.

"Where's the shopkeeper?" Shen Xi asked.

"The shopkeeper's ...... At home. ”

Xiaoyu is not very good at lying, and her words flickered at this moment, which suddenly made Shen Xi see the clues.

Shen Xi said coldly: "From the Xie family's old mansion here, you came here alone?" ”

"I ......"

Now Xiaoyu is even more difficult to answer.

Shen Xi walked out of the study directly, walked out of the house through the front yard, stood in front of the steps and looked around, and found that a carriage was parked at the corner of the alley on the right.

Hui Niang is still worried about her daughter, or maybe she has a faint expectation, hoping to release her suspicions with Shen Xibing, after all, she is her daughter's future father-in-law, and with this relationship, she will be supported by her "son-in-law" when she is old, which is a matter of course, and she is no longer lonely.

"Get down!"

Shen Xi walked quickly to the carriage and shouted.

Only the barking of dogs could be heard around, and after a long time, Hui Niang slowly stepped down from the carriage, her face was full of tears, she knelt down head-on, and kowtowed to Shen Xi.

"Sun Huiniang, I don't care what you did before, or how good your relationship with the Shen family is, I just want to tell you one thing now, I must stop the business in hand!"

Shen Xi faced Hui Niang as if he was treating his daughter who had not changed his ways.

In terms of age, Hui Niang is thirteen years older than Shen Xi, and she is twenty-eight years old this year, only four years different from Shen Xi's mother Zhou, but in terms of psychological age, Shen Xi is more than ten years older than Hui Niang.

It's a unique way to get along.

After all, Shen Xi came with Tiancong, if he hadn't come to this world, he would have been a middle-aged man in his forties in his previous life, but now he is in his prime, making his style of doing things more similar to that of a hot-blooded young man, but in terms of old scheming and the ability to avoid trouble, he is mature and steady.

This is also the fundamental reason why Xie Qian always said that Shen Xi's personality is not easy to ponder.

Shen Xi's appreciation of Hui Niang mainly comes from her beauty, generosity, intellectuality, self-reliance and responsibility, she is full of charm of mature women, but Hui Niang's biggest shortcoming is her paranoia, which mainly comes from her psychological inferiority complex as a widow, and the fear that her daughter may be helpless after marriage.

And now, Hui Niang's paranoia has almost reached the extreme.

Hui Niang fell to the ground and said in a mournful voice: "What the lord reminds me is that after the women go back, they will ...... Just do it. ”

"Will you?"

Shen Xi asked angrily, full of authority, and he couldn't tell that this was just a fifteen-year-old boy.

In Hui Niang, Shen Xi really feels what love is deeply responsible, he really hopes that Hui Niang can live well, even if Hui Niang has her own happiness, who she marries, and can live a stable life in the future, it is better than stubbornly doing something that hurts others and is not beneficial to herself, torturing herself while torturing the people around her, which makes Shen Xi feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Within three days, you will temporarily shut down your business, and after I come out of the Gongyuan, I will ask Song Dangjia to hand over the carriage shop to you to take care of, you have to do business, and it is not impossible to run a pharmaceutical factory, a pharmacy, a printing workshop, and a bookstore......

When Shen Xi said this, he felt a little unbearable in his heart.

Hui Niang can be regarded as an elder who watched him grow up, but now he is groveling and kowtowing in front of him, and he can't reach out to help Hui Niang in order to sober up.

This is an extremely contradictory psychology, which makes Shen Xi feel that he is the most vicious sinner in the world.

"As for Ling Yuan, you don't have time to take care of her, so let her stay in the official mansion for the time being, and then come and pick her up after you sell the business!"

After speaking, Shen Xi took Lu Xi'er back to the house.

Although Lu Xi'er was full of hope to stay in the Shen Mansion, at this time she still looked back at her mother in three steps, but at this time, Shen Xi had to harden her heart and remind herself that she must not turn back, and she must let Hui Niang understand how wrong she was, so that she would know her way back...... But when he arrived at the door, Shen Xi still involuntarily glanced back, just in time to catch a glimpse of the pitiful back who was leaning on the car.

Hui Niang is a paranoid woman, but how can he let go of that obsession in his own heart?

Shen Xi is a responsibility to Xie Yun'er, Lin Dai and even Yin Wen, which is out of men's love for women and reciprocating their deep affection.

Only for Hui Niang, Shen Xi is absolute appreciation and admiration, he is like a fan, since the first time he saw Hui Niang, he fell in love with this brave and self-reliant woman, staring at his innocent big eyes desperately to please her, showing his ability in front of her, trying every means to shelter her from the wind and rain, clearing all obstacles in her way, and using his weak body to shoulder the responsibility of taking care of her.

Although Shen Xi knew that he would never have a result with Hui Niang, he always believed that as long as she lived well, he would fulfill the responsibility of an admirer!

To love her, you don't have to have her!

It's a pity that Hui Niang is on a road destined to be rugged and bumpy, going against him, and going farther and farther. Shen Xi stepped into the threshold, and soon the iron door closed with a "bang", as if closing the last possibility between him and Hui Niang.

Shen Xi walked into the study lonely, sitting alone at the desk, even if he was going to enter the Tribute Academy tomorrow, he still couldn't lift the mind of any examiner, and he didn't think about the slightest thing about this exam.

There are gains and losses, since the day Shen Xi stepped into the officialdom, he thought that there was an insurmountable gap between himself and Hui Niang, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

However, although he lost the person he admired in his heart, he still had to live his life, after all, there was a woman who had always been in love with him and needed his care.

In Shen Xi's heart, there is no question of being willing or not, because no matter from which point of view, it is impossible for him and Hui Niang to be husband and wife, first of all, his parents and family can't pass the pass, Lu Xi'er can't pass this pass, and there are social public opinion and moral constraints, let alone allow a Hanlin official to accept a business widow when he has a family and a room, if he still wants to make a difference in the imperial court, he must realize that even if he doesn't stop now, he will have to stop in the future.

It's almost an unsolvable game.

……

……

There are many idle rooms in the inner courtyard of the Zhuangyuan Mansion, Shen Xi asked the maid to help Lu Xi'er settle down, and Xiao Nizi wanted to come to Shen Xi's room again at night as before, and hugged Shen Xi to sleep.

But she is no longer a childish girl, after she first appeared, she already understood that men and women do not have children by hugging each other, and she understands how to let Shen Xi have herself. But when she tiptoed to the door of Shen Xi's courtyard and tried to push it open, she found that the door was locked from the inside, and she couldn't enter Shen Xi's courtyard at all.

"Miss, this is the master's courtyard, you can't greet you on weekdays, and no one can go in. Go back and rest! Lu'er appeared behind the moon gate with a lantern and persuaded Lu Xi'er.

Lu Xi'er reluctantly went back to the room, and when her footsteps disappeared, Lin Dai, who was shy in the bedroom of the small courtyard, showed her head and pouted: "Hmph, you robbed me when you were a child, and now that you have grown up, you have to rob me." ”

Shen Xi said angrily: "You are good sisters since childhood, is it interesting to always compete for it?" ”

"How can you do it without fighting or grabbing? My mother may come back when, and then my mother will count me down, saying that my stomach is not angry, and I can't open up branches and leaves for the Shen family, and I will definitely arrange me to do this and that, if I ...... in the future She came in the door, too, before me...... I'm pregnant, so I'm ...... Then I might as well crash to death. ”

Lin Dai has accepted the fact that she herself does not have much say in the Shen family, mainly because her stomach is not angry.

Lin Dai knew that she couldn't own Shen Xi alone, and even Lu Xi'er, a little girl who had been hated by her since she was a child, would have to come in the door to fight for her husband sooner or later.

"Just know whining."

Shen Xi lifted the quilt, "Why are you still covering it, aren't you too hot to panic?" ”

"Who's hot? It's been autumn for a long time, and I'm still cold, so cover me quickly. Lin Dai started to lose her temper again at this time.

But after that, she couldn't say what she wanted to say, because Shen Xi had already kissed her lips.

Before Shen Xi went to take the Shuntianfu Township Exam, he always had to comfort his wife and concubine...... Xie Yun'er has Xiao Shen Ping to pass the loneliness, and Lin Dai seems to be much lonely, she is not very good at taking care of children, she is also a child herself, and now there is Lu Xi'er, a childhood playmate, coming to the house, which can make her feel better in the next month.

The next morning, the whole Shen family saw Shen Xi off, and prepared a lot of large and small bags, but in fact, the only things that could really come in handy were books and clothes, and other things would be provided in the Gongyuan.

Shen Xi prepared the official seal, put it in his arms, and when he walked out of the gate of the mansion, he felt a little lost in his heart, and when he saw the big iron gate of Leng Sensen, he inevitably remembered the sound of the door closing last night, which was almost the rupture of his dream of being a teenager, and since then, the boy has become a thing of the past, and those innocent and unrealistic dreams are gone.

"Xianggong will come back early, and the concubine will be at home to pray for Xianggong." Xie Yun'er looked at Shen Xi's gaze, Chu Chu was pitiful, her eyes were red, and she was almost in tears.

Shen Xi smiled: "It's not life and death, why are you so sad?" I won't leave the capital again, just wait, I'll definitely be back within a month this time, and I won't postpone. ”

Just about to get into the carriage of Zhu Shan, a team appeared in front of him, and in the center was a carriage, followed by some officers and soldiers in front of the car, and at a glance he knew that it was a person from Shuntianfu.

"Lord Shen? Leaving so early? ”

It was Tang Ying who jumped out of the carriage, "Xiaguan has long been ready to come to greet him, Lord Shen, please get in the car, let's say a few more words, okay?" ”

Shen Xi didn't want to be entangled with Tang Ying, but in this case, there was no need for him to make enemies with the people of Shuntianfu, since he didn't have the ability to break the unspoken rules of the examination room, he had to learn to be hypocritical.

"Okay."

Shen Xi nodded, got into Tang Ying's carriage directly, and then went in the direction of the Gongyuan under the escort of many officers and soldiers.
