"Auntie, is that Xiaowen Shangshu's wife? She's so young!" A young girl Tingting came over gracefully, and approached Mrs. Changle Hou affectionately, but her beautiful eyes were fixed on Yu Zhi.
This girl is the niece raised by Mrs. Changle Hou since she was a child, and her maiden name is Chu Yue.
Mrs. Changle Hou looked away, and the smile on her face faded, "It's just that she looks young. Her eldest son is about the same age as you."
"Ah, I can't see it at all." Envy flashed in Chu Yue's eyes, she insisted on her beauty, and only after meeting this person today did she realize that there is a world beyond the sky. When my aunt greeted them just now, she was in a daze or didn't dare to come over.
"It's just skin, the most important thing in a girl's family is virtuousness and housekeeping." At the age of Mrs. Changlehou, she doesn't pay much attention to appearance. At least she won't pick such a daughter-in-law. Sometimes she is too beautiful, which is not necessarily a good thing. If there is not enough power to protect it, it will be a great disaster.
"It's getting late, sister Yue, why don't you go up too, don't sister Rong and the others all go in the morning?" Mrs. Changle Hou looked at her niece.
"I'll wait for my aunt." Chu Yue acted like a baby.
Mrs. Changle Hou smiled and glanced at her, "You, every girl should play with little sisters. Why are you clinging to me, an old woman?"
Mrs. Changlehou has only two sons under her knees, but no daughter. She treats this niece raised by herself as a daughter.
Chu Yue smiled, "My aunt is not old at all, so I just like being with her."
"You!" Mrs. Changle Hou said angrily, but she was very happy for her niece's thoughtfulness, "Let's go, auntie will go up with you." She left her confidant mother here to continue to welcome guests.
The painting boat is really big, it is tens of meters long by visual inspection. The pillars of the corridors and pavilions on the painting boats are all exquisitely carved. Standing firmly on it is no different from being on land.
It was obviously not the first time Mrs. Jing'anhou had boarded a painting boat, and she took Yu Zhi to visit one place after another. When they were tired, they sat on the bench beside the boat to rest their feet.
Yu Zhi leaned sideways on the side of the boat and looked down. The river was clear, blue waves rippling, and the breeze was coming. It would be better if he could touch the river with his fingers.
"Look, there are fish." Yu Zhi said suddenly.
"Where is it?" Madam Jing'an raised her head to look.
"Over there." Yu Zhi pointed at the school of fish swimming over, carelessly, there must be a dozen of them.
"Really." I am used to admiring koi, and I feel a bit wild when I see this ordinary fish at first glance. Just come up."
"There is no fishing net." Yu Zhi's eyes flickered, and he ordered to Orange, "But there is no way, Orange, find a chopstick, find a string, um, and bring a knife."
"Let Qiuju go, she is more familiar." Although Mrs. Jing'an Hou didn't know what she was going to do, she was quite curious.
Ju Zi hurriedly said: "Young maidservant and sister Qiu Ju, let's go together."
After a while, the two came back. Not only did Yu Zhi bring the chopsticks, string and knife that Yu Zhi wanted, but Tangerine also brought a basin.
"I'll take a look at that picture, I'm good at catching fish." Yu Zhi said as he neatly carved a mark on the end of the chopsticks with a knife, and tied them with a string. Don't engrave, for fear that the string will not be tied firmly. The other end is simply shaved a few times to sharpen.
"You want to spear a fish?" Mrs. Jing'an Hou saw it, "Can you fork it?" She looked at the chopstick, expressing her doubts.
"Try it." Yu Zhi wrapped the string around his hand, held the chopsticks in his right hand, and stared into the water. Suddenly she moved, the chopsticks shot into the water like a dagger, and the thin rope in her hand was lifted quickly, and a fish that was one span long was lifted up, flicking its tail in mid-air, struggling.
"It's really here!" Mrs. Jing'an Hou was surprised and happy, Qiu Ju and Juzi clapped their hands and cheered, "What a big fish!"
Yu Zhi was proud, "I said earlier that I'm good at catching fish." While throwing the fish into the basin, Tangerine stepped forward and took the chopsticks from the fish, wiped them clean with a handkerchief, and handed them to Yu Zhi.
"Continue." Yu Zhi continued to catch fish, and soon she speared another one, which was bigger than the one just now.
Mrs. Jing'an Hou looked at the fish in the basin, then at Yu Zhi, and couldn't help but said: "Sister Yu still has this skill, real people don't show their faces!"
Yu Zhi winked at her, showing a bit of cunning, "Sister Zhang, what, my Huahua...you understand."
Madam Jing'anhou was startled, and laughed when she thought that little girl Huahua beat up four boys by herself. She looked Yu Zhi up and down, "I mean, so Huahua married her mother. But I just like Sister Yu's sharpness." Her family is a military commander, so she doesn't pay attention to elegance and chastity. I can make a few gestures.
"Why don't we hit it off?" Yu Zhi answered playfully, she kept her hands on while she was talking, and she speared five or six fish in a short while.
The movement here attracted the attention of many people, and they all gathered around, and they were extremely surprised when they saw Yu Zhi spearing the fish.
First of all, he was surprised by Yu Zhi's beauty, and even more surprised that such a delicate beauty can fork fish from the river, using chopsticks!
Madam Jing'anhou introduced them, and Yu Zhi greeted them generously. When these people knew Yu Zhi's identity, they looked at her with strange eyes. Is this Xiao Wen Shangshu's wife? It's not the same as they imagined.
There is also a wife who has met Yu Zhi before, and her expression is also in a trance. This Yu's appearance has not changed much from eight years ago! She has become a yellow-faced woman, and she is still like a girl. People compare with others, and they are so angry. Where can I reason?
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Madam Xiaowen can even spear fish?"
Yu Zhi smiled and said modestly: "It's nothing difficult, it's just a matter of eye disease, quick hands, and more strength." After a pause, he continued: "Everyone knows that before my father met His Royal Highness, our family lived in the People in the country, people in the country, have to do farm work every day, and catching a fish is nothing."
She has a candid expression, and she doesn't shy away from talking about her background at all, and there is no trace of embarrassment or inferiority in her brows.
She was so calm, but she won the favor of everyone, but...how could they not understand Mrs. Xiaowen's words?
Such a slender beauty with great strength? The slender waist is full of grip, where is the strength? Such an appearance like "Looking back and smiling, Bai Meisheng, Liugong Fendai colorless", claiming to be a village girl?
Ha, haven't you seen a village girl when bullying them?
When the forks reached a dozen or so, Yu Zhi stopped and said to Juzi, "Send it to the kitchen, send it early, and you can add another dish at noon."
