Miss Wang—Mrs. Xu was very puzzled when she saw this—
It is said that there are four great joys in life: the rain comes after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, the night of flowers and candles in the wedding room, and the time when the gold medal is named. My husband is meeting one of these, so why is he so gloomy?
Mr. Xu looked at the considerate wife in front of him and hesitantly recounted the unforgettable love history before marriage.
Mrs. Xu was also a straightforward and generous person, so she immediately dragged her husband to welcome Miss Lin to the house.
But Miss Lin handed over the words——
I am the daughter of a guilty minister, and I can’t bear to bring trouble to the Xu family, so I’ll give up on my previous marriage!
When Mr. Xu saw that Miss Lin's family was in decline and her life was miserable, he finally couldn't bear it. He bought a house outside and settled Miss Lin. Two years later, Miss Lin gave birth to a baby girl named Danyang.
Danyang was born with a delicate and frail body. Mr. Xu was afraid that his daughter would be born delicate and cause trouble for the little devil, so he dressed up his daughter in men's clothes and pretended to be a boy to educate her.
Speaking of Miss Xu Danyang, when she is nineteen years old, her appearance looks a lot like Mr. Xu, who is naturally handsome. She is proficient in the medicine and medicine passed down from the Xu family's ancestors, and she also has some experience in medicine, but Danyang's parents are
Not happy——
Although Danyang was raised as a boy, it is still a girl's family. When ordinary girls reach the age of fifteen or sixteen, it is time to consider life-long events. However, this Danyang is already nineteen, but her words and deeds are chic and generous, and there is no trace of a boudoir girl.
She has a delicate and graceful spirit, but she is also obsessed with medicine. She has little knowledge of acupuncture, chess, calligraphy and painting. Who would dare to marry such a girl?
The two elders of the Xu family thought that it was not too late to remedy the situation, so they hurriedly changed Danyang into women's clothing and invited seven or eight masters to teach their daughter's skills.
Unexpectedly, Danyang was very resistant. After protesting to his parents many times to no avail, he actually left a letter and ran away, saying that he wanted to find a clean place and continue to study medicine.
When the young lady ran away, the Xu family did not dare to publicize it, so they had to search for her privately. The search lasted for a year. It was not until Mr. Xu was critically ill that Danyang returned to Jinling.
Alas, although the past is like smoke, I am afraid it has not dispersed with the wind.
Although Mr. Xu arranged for Miss Lin, Miss Lin was the daughter of the guilty minister after all. Mr. Xu was afraid that he wanted to avoid some suspicion and could not come and go often. Danyang looked down on Mr. Xu and his wife and beloved son to share a family relationship, and he
My mother was looking forward to seeing the couple together, but she didn’t know what to think.
Alas, what happened to the Xu family is really disappointing...
As soon as I sighed, I heard that Senior Brother Ninth had stopped the carriage.
"Come out!" Brother Ninth lifted up the curtain of the carriage, stretched out his long arms, pulled the collar of Young Master Xu's clothes, and pushed Young Master Xu out of the carriage. Young Master Xu staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"Bold!" The two boys in the Xu Family Courtyard reacted quickly. They raised two big sticks and pointed at the Ninth Senior Brother.
Senior Brother Ninth snorted and kicked Young Master Xu on the calf, "Let these boys back off."
Young Master Xu glared at the Ninth Senior Brother bitterly and waved his hand towards the boy.
With Ninth Senior Brother paving the way, we can travel unimpeded in the Xu Family Courtyard.
The Xu family is worthy of being a wealthy family in the imperial dynasty. The courtyard is built with five steps to the first floor and ten steps to the pavilion. The veranda has a long waist and high eaves. I was amazed when I saw it.
Entering the courtyard, Brother Ninth pressed Young Master Xu fiercely, "Tell me, where is Xu Danyang?"
Before Young Master Xu could answer, the sick Mrs. Xu helped a little girl and walked out from behind the rockery in a jewel-like manner. She said neither humble nor arrogantly: "My lord, please calm down. I wonder where my Xu family has offended my eldest son?"
