    In a blink of an eye, it was the fourteenth day of the first lunar month. Yu Shu left Ji's house early in the morning. When she went to get medicine from He Langzhong the day before yesterday, Zhao Hui told her to go there early today because they wanted to celebrate her birthday one day in advance.  Ji Xingxuan had enough six-yao and eight-image throws yesterday, and she learned the first step of "starting the hexagram". Yu Shu then taught her the "pretending hexagram" of the six-yao line, but only talked about the two steps of Najia and Shiying, and did not explain them.  Regarding the two steps of Gua Gong and Yong Shen, this time Yu Shu didn't let her throw a coin and taught her half-heartedly, so she asked Ji Xingxuan to go back and install the two hundred hexagrams, and found things for her to do in various ways to free up a few days of free time.  From afar, Yu Shu saw Yu Xiaoxiu standing at the door of Zhao Hui's house, waiting for her. After calling him, the child ran over happily, and was happier to see Yu Shu than anyone else.  "Sister, have you had breakfast?" "No, do you have food at home?" "Well, Aunt Hui asked the cook to make sweet red bean porridge for you, and also boiled a pot of eggs, waiting for you to come and eat." Yu Shu  After being dragged home by Yu Xiaoxiu, he first went to the backyard to see Zhao Hui. In the hall, He Fangzhi was taking Zhao Hui's early pulse. When he saw two children walking in, he smiled and asked them to come and sit down.  Because it was inconvenient for Zhao Hui to move, the family moved the dining table indoors to have breakfast. Under Zhao Hui¡¯s expectant eyes, Yu Shu just drank two bowls of porridge and swallowed three eggs.  There is a folk saying in the Da'an Dynasty that a boy's birthday is not known, but an unmarried daughter must drink sweet bean porridge on her birthday, which symbolizes a happy marriage in the future. The eggs boiled in the middle of the night at that time symbolized many children and good fortune.  The more, the better.  After breakfast, Zhao Hui kicked He Fangzhi and Yu Xiaoxiu out, and asked Kiddou to carry a new set of clothes out of the house. She pulled Yu Shu to her side and gestured. The darker blue fabric went well with Yu Shu's skin tone, which was not too white.  Yu Shu liked Zhao Hui's attitude of treating her like his own daughter. She sweetly shouted "Thank you, godmother", then went into the house to change her new clothes. She had them measured at Wangji Building that day.  The clothes haven't been finished yet. Today she went out to wear the new clothes Zhao Hui made for her during the Chinese New Year, only one jacket was missing. After changing into new clothes, Zhao Hui added a white jade hairpin with green spots on Yu Shu's head, saying  It was given by He Langzhong.  "It's great like this. She looks more and more like a girl. Tomorrow she will be a sixteen-year-old girl." Zhao Hui lovingly held Yu Shu's ears, feeling very sorry for this child who had a troubled fate. Every time she saw her  It's like seeing myself back then, having no one to rely on and having no choice but to work hard on my own.  In the past, she had a hard life and couldn't do anything more for her. Now everything is fine. As an elder, she has done everything she can.  When it was almost noon, Pei Jing also came, but he was empty-handed, which made Zhao Hui laugh: "Brother, why are you so stingy today? You didn't take anything from the baby, so you just came with a mouth?" Pei Jing  He laughed and said, "Who said I didn't bring a gift? That's right." As he said that, he took something out from his waist and handed it to Yu Shu, "Take it, don't say that your uncle is not good to you. I'm useless for this gift."  After a lot of effort, what was handed to Yu Shu's hand was a slender riding crop wrapped in red leather. Yu Shu was confused, and He Fangzhi and his wife did not understand its meaning.  Yu Xiaoxiu was still smart. He clapped his hands and stood up and said excitedly: "Are you going to give your sister a horse?" Pei Jing reached out and touched his head and said with a smile, "That's right." Yu Shu had long been thinking about buying a horse to ride on.  Pei Jing had asked Pei Jing about buying the horse years ago, and Pei Jing took it seriously. He just happened to have a connection. He heard about Yu Shu's death a few days ago and took the opportunity to use it as a gift.  When several people heard this, they were dumbfounded. It was because Pei Jing, a cheap uncle, was in charge and was more generous than his own father.  "We at the Taiheng Chamber of Commerce are in charge of a few horse dealers. We just sent a batch of good horses to Beijing a few days ago. I went to pick them first and chose a mare with a gentle temperament for you. It is just three years old. Originally, today  I wanted to bring him here in the morning, but I had to give up because he had lost his belly. You can go get him again in two days. "This gift is too generous, and Yu Shu is embarrassed to accept it. It is not cheap to send a horse to the capital."  , especially a mare that can be matched, if you don¡¯t have a lot of money, just touch the horse¡¯s butt.  Although Zhao Hui and He Fangzhi both felt that this gift was too heavy, they couldn't interrupt. Pei Jing was a good person and could see what they were thinking, so he said to Yu Shu: "Why don't you want to accept my uncle's favor? Silly boy, you didn't see this.  It¡¯s your uncle who is trying to fawn over you. When Dayan releases its rankings later, there will be many people vying for it. Even if your uncle wants to, he won¡¯t be able to fawn over you. It¡¯s early.¡± Yu Shuyi  Hearing this, she immediately laughed. Didn't she know that Pei Jing was a human being? Even if his words were true, the affection in them was not false. If she refused coquettishly, it would not appear to be magnanimous.  "Thank you, uncle." "Haha, that's right." Zhao Hui saw that they were in agreement, so she didn't interrupt. Yu Xiaoxiu was the happiest, sitting next to Pei Jing and asking about the horse.  Kidney Bean went to the kitchen to look around and came back and told him that it wasWhen the dishes were ready, He Fangzhi looked at the sun outside and asked Yu Shu: "Why haven't you seen shopkeeper Cao come yet? Did you tell me the wrong date?" In order to give Yu Shu a lively birth, Zhao Hui thought a lot.  Invite some people, but there are not many people in Anling. After all, just a few people were invited. Pei Jing was invited, and then Yu Shu invited "Cao Zixin".  "Tell him it's today," Yu Shu stood up and looked outside: "You guys go sit in the living room first, and I'll go out and take a look." After paying the bill on the ninth day of the lunar month, Yu Shu didn't see Xue Rui for several days.  Man, Wangji Restaurant will officially open tomorrow. Xue Rui just showed up at the restaurant yesterday afternoon. He came in a hurry, told Lin Fu a few things and then left in a hurry. Yu Shu had time to say a few words to him.  One sentence to say hello, one sentence to say that she was having a birthday party at Zhao Hui's house on her fourteenth day and invited him to come. Xue Rui agreed to be there at that time.  But it¡¯s almost time to have lunch now, and I haven¡¯t seen anyone yet.  Yu Shu waited outside the gate for a while, and then he saw a horse shadow running from the street. The person who stopped in front of the gate and dismounted was Lao Cui, who usually drove a carriage. He panted and called Yu Shu, and said politely: "Girl,  "Wish the girl a happy birthday." When Yu Shu saw him running over alone, he guessed that Xue Rui had something to do and couldn't come. Sure enough, Old Cui took a breath and then said: "The eldest young master asked the younger one to come and say something. He is celebrating today."  He's not coming, so the girl doesn't have to wait for him." Yu Shu was a little disappointed, but didn't show it, "I understand, Lao Cui, come in and sit down, the food is set, let's have a good time with us. "It's kind to me, girl."  I have other urgent matters." Lao Cui hesitated for a moment, then looked around to see if there was no one around. He moved closer and said softly to her: "To tell the truth, young master, I really can't get away today. The Ninth Prince returned the day before yesterday.  I am in Beijing. This morning I followed the imperial concubine¡¯s order and came out of the palace to meet my bride. The whole family, young and old, followed.  " Yu Shu was stunned when he heard this information. Who is the Ninth Prince? "Also, the eldest young master told the girl to go to Wangji Tower as early as possible tomorrow, as early as possible or later. The young one will leave now. You can go in.  " After Old Cui brought the message, he hurriedly left. Yu Shu stood alone at the door for a while. After thinking about it, he felt that the ninth prince should be the son of the noble concubine of the Xue family. "Sister, Brother Cao is here.  "?" Yu Xiaoxiu's shout sounded from behind. Yu Shu stopped his thoughts, turned around and walked towards the yard: "No, Lao Cui came to send a message just now. He can't come today."  " Yu Shu stayed at Zhao Hui's house until the afternoon before leaving. Zhao Hui wanted to stay with her for dinner, but Yu Shu found an excuse to refuse. Zhao Hui was afraid that she would be late when she returned, so she did not persuade her to stay. Instead, she packed a few eggs and gave her a box of mooncakes.  He poured a pot of rice wine and asked her to take it back to Aunt Cui. Yu Xiaoxiu walked Yu Shu out and stopped at the street. He took out a small bag from his arms, squeezed it and handed it to her.  " "Hey, you also prepared a gift for me?" Yu Shu smiled and took it, feeling that there seemed to be some strips in the bag. When he unwrapped it, who would have thought that it was five or six polished charcoal pencils. " Look.  It is as thick as a burnt willow branch. It is rare that there is no crack. The tip of the pen is carefully sharpened. There is also a delicate and compact cloth cover on the pen to prevent the fingers from getting stained when holding the pen. "Ah, you.  Made?" Seeing the surprise on Yu Shu's face, Yu Xiaoxiu said shyly: "I burned a lot of them at first and they were not good, so I asked Uncle He for help. I asked Kidney Dou to sew that pen cover. I know you don't like to use it.  The writing brush is slow to write, so it¡¯s okay to use it occasionally. Sister, don¡¯t always study late at night and go to bed early. Uncle He said staying up late is bad for your health.  " Hearing these words, Yu Shu was so relieved that she almost shed tears. She just felt that the bag of charcoal tips in her hand was the best gift she had received today. She wouldn't exchange it for ten horses.  . He couldn¡¯t help but stretched out his arms to hug Yu Xiaoxiu, and Yu Shu said: ¡°Good brother, my sister likes this gift and will put it to good use.  " Yu Xiaoxiu was hugged by her in the street. He twisted his body in embarrassment and said awkwardly: "You'd better make a good brush as soon as possible. You can't see the handwriting like this.  " Yu Shu chuckled, patted his shoulder, let go of him, and promised: "I will buy a copybook and practice calligraphy tomorrow.  " The two siblings lingered for a while before saying goodbye. Yu Xiaoxiu waited until Yu Shu disappeared at the corner and turned back. But Yu Shu changed directions on the next street and walked to the south of the city at dawn, passing by the market along the way and entering  After several shops, there were more and more big and small bags in my hands. When I arrived at Huixing Street, I could no longer carry them in my hand. I entered the alley familiarly and stopped in front of a locked courtyard door at the end of the alley. There was no one around.  People, Yu Shu freed up a hand to take the key from his neck, opened the door, pushed the door in with a creak, closed the door with his backhand, and lowered the latch. There was a deserted atmosphere in the small courtyard that had not been occupied for a long time.  After entering the big house, she put down all the large and small bags, choked on the dust, waved her hand in front of her nose, and frowned. Jing Chen would be back tomorrow, and she had to clean up the place first.nbsp; Yu Shu retreated to the door of the house, looked around at the spider webs and dust, rolled up his sleeves, put them on his waist, took a breath, and felt full of energy.
