I got up late, but when I got up I found a call coming in. I was very happy. The days without power seemed like years~
=======》《======Dividing line=====》《=======
Early in the morning on New Year's Eve, Matchmaker Guo led two servants of the Jiang family to the door to deliver New Year's gifts. When they entered the house, they went to the kang cooked by themselves and said with a smile: "Moli Niang, the Jiang family asked me to deliver the gifts." It's New Year's gift. I have to say that this Jiang family is really one of a million. I have been a matchmaker for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen such a thorough etiquette. You know, in the past, many families had to do it during any festival or New Year. I only remembered to prepare the holiday gifts when I came to remind them, but the Jiang family prepared them early every time. The younger brother of the Jiang family was originally going to come today, but the old lady of the Jiang family told him to wait until the 200th day of the first day of the new year. Chapter 06 The quarrel over the New Year's Eve came directly to greet you, and then I stopped it. The latest update from e3"
Mrs. Fang took the gift list from Matchmaker Guo, glanced at it and mentally calculated the gift she would give her in return. Then she listened to Matchmaker Guo praising the Jiang family in her ears, and finally interrupted when she stopped to drink water. He said: "Auntie, there are fruits and melon seeds here. You sit down first, and I will pack the return gifts for you. I have to trouble you to bring them to the Jiang family."
"Don't bother me. This is what I deserve." Guo Matchmaker said with a smile, "We are all old acquaintances. You can go about your business. There is no need to worry about me."
Mrs. Fang went directly to the west room to find Jasmine and said, "Have you wrapped all the needlework that I asked you to make before? Hehua went to take out half of the wedding cakes and fruits sent by the Jiang family and wrapped them separately. Last time I asked you to go to the city to buy them. Where are the tea cakes and preserved fruits?”
"Mom, don't worry, those things were all prepared last night." Hehua looked at Fang with some strangeness, "What's going on these days? Are you distracted from everything you do?"
"It's okay, I, I'm just a little upset by Mrs. Guo's nagging." Fang shook her head and simply handed the gift list to Hehua and said, "Go and prepare all the return gifts. The busier you are in the new year, the more things you will have to do."
He Hua took the gift list and said with a smile: "The matchmaker is not always like this. He must have taken the money from the Jiang family, so when he came to our house, he praised the Jiang family desperately." It’s nothing to worry about, just let her say so.”
Hehua packed up all the return gifts, and helped Fang prepare the rewards for Matchmaker Guo and the two servants of the Jiang family and put them on the table. She checked them again, took out the red paper and started writing the return gift list.
"You can be regarded as the little housekeeper of our family now. I think my mother will definitely not be willing to marry you off in the future." Jasmine sat on the kang, doing needlework while looking at the lotus flowers and writing, "In the future, I will recruit a son-in-law. ”
"Sister, you are not ashamed to say this. I think you are in a hurry to get married, right?" He Hua glanced at Jasmine with a smile, "Why don't you recruit the little brother from the Jiang family as your son-in-law? Take my idea."
"You girl..." Jasmine said angrily.
Hehua turned to look at Shaoyao who was sitting on the kang, and whispered to Jasmine: "Even if you want to get married, you have to talk to Sister Shaoyao first. It's not my turn yet."
Shaoyao's face suddenly turned red when Hehua said it, and the awl he was holding the sole of his shoe tilted in his hand, "Why are you dragging me along so smoothly?"
"There are only a few of us now, tell me, what kind of husband do you want to find in the future?" He Hua Chong Shaoyao winked and asked.
"I..." Shaoyao shook his head first, and then said with a blush, "I think it doesn't matter whether the family has money or not, as long as the person is good, hard-working... and motivated... Anyway, as long as the person is good, that's fine."
After hearing this, Jasmine said without thinking: "If you say so, Brother Liangzi will be very good."
The awl in Shaoyao's hand pricked her hand directly. The pain made her cry. She also threw away the insole in her hand and put her fingers in her mouth.
"Why are you so careless?" Jasmine leaned over to check Shaoyao's hand, which happened to be pressed on the insole she had thrown away. She suddenly stopped strangely and stretched out her hand to measure it and asked: "Who is this made for? If it is for dad. It seems to be a bit smaller, but it seems to be a little longer if it is given to the eldest brother... "
Shaoyao hurriedly took out the insole from Jasmine's hands, stretched out her hand and measured it randomly: "Really? Maybe I got the wrong size."
Hehua wrote the last word on the gift list, picked it up and looked at it for a moment, blew it and put it aside to dry. She turned to look at Shaoyao and said, "Brother Liangzi's feet should be smaller than dad's and bigger than eldest brother's." Bar?"
Jasmine also looked at Shaoyao suspiciously and asked, "You can't really... let me get it right, can you?"
Mrs. Fang suddenly opened the door and came in: "Lotus, have you packed it up?"
"Oh, it's all done." He Hua turned around and saw that the gift list had been dried, and then put the reward money wrapped in red paper into Fang's hand and said, "The extra share is for Matchmaker Guo, the two shares are the same. It’s for two servants of the Jiang family.”
"I got it, little housekeeper." Mrs. Fang stretched out her hand and patted He Hua on the head to express her praise. She hurriedly took the gift list and went out. She asked two servants of the Jiang family to come in and bear the gift in return. She stuffed it and gave it to them two Then he went back to the house and handed the gift list and red envelope to Matchmaker Guo and said, "Aunt Guo, today is thirty. I know you have to go home to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, so I won't keep you longer. Thank you for your hard work. "
Matchmaker Guo took the red envelope and weighed it for a moment to see how much was inside. Although it was not as much as what the Jiang family gave, for a family like the Zhu family, the rewards were much better than she expected, so she said with a smile: "Mother Moli, you That’s so polite, don’t worry, I will definitely deliver the gift to the Jiang family properly.”
After seeing off Matchmaker Guo, Mrs. Fang rubbed her sore eyebrows and forehead, changed her clothes and prepared to go to the old yard to help cook the New Year's Eve dinner.
Zhu Yongxin came in from the backyard and said, "I'll go with you."
Fang asked in surprise: "Why are you still at home? Didn't you go there in the morning?"
"Forget it..." Zhu Yongxin sighed, "As soon as I got there in the morning, my mother told me about when Jasmine was getting married, and about peony and so on. I, I guess I made her unhappy, but it was just the Chinese New Year. She didn’t say anything, and I didn’t want to see her face over there, so I came back, and I was watering the mushroom house in the back with Liangzi just now.”
"..." When Mrs. Fang heard what he said, she finally regained her energy and sank again, "What about going over there later?"
"Don't worry about it, I'll just tell her." Zhu Yongxin changed the subject and said, "I heard from Liangzi that the Sun family is going to pull mushrooms at noon today. The ones last time were all sold out. Today, all the mushrooms are picked by others. The land has been ordered for the New Year's Eve dinner. Liangzi said that he will cut the mushrooms in a while. I think Hehua's mushroom business this time will be much more profitable than the previous ones."
"It's not good that your daughter is capable." Mrs. Fang knew that Zhu Yongxin wanted to cheer herself up, so she took a deep breath and said, "Several children in our family are very competitive. Yesterday, the eldest sister told me, My brother-in-law praised our Bonin for his rapid growth and knowing how to work hard, saying that he will definitely be promising in the future."
"It's a good thing that the children are making progress. We also have to make more money. There will be more places to spend money in the future. We can't delay the future of the children because we are holding back." Zhu Yongxin reached out and pressed Fang's shoulder. .
"Yes, we as parents can't be compared with our daughter. We have to work hard to make money." Fang said trying to cheer herself up.
"Yeah, I'm thinking, if the mushroom business is good this year, we will build two more greenhouses next year, and we can both help pick mushrooms in the winter. This year's harvest will be much more than last year, so next year we will definitely It will be even better." Zhu Yongxin pointed to the end of the village and said, "I heard someone say a few days ago that someone has five acres of land at the end of the village. I have gone to see it before. The location of the land is quite good and it is very smooth. I was thinking about how I would go and dig up the soil below after this busy year. If it is good, how about buying it for my family? Although the corn cannot be sold for much money now, I think our family likes to eat it. In the future, I keep the corn as food at home, and the corn stalks can also be used to feed cattle and make fires, which can add a lot of income."
"You know more about farming than I do. You are the head of the family. You can do whatever you think is right." Fang nodded and took a deep breath. "When we get to the old yard later, I'll tell my mother about this." The matter is over, if you go and say it, it will only cause another quarrel, so don’t make my mother unhappy because it’s Chinese New Year.”
As soon as Mrs. Fang and Zhu Yongxin entered the room, Mrs. Yang hurriedly greeted them. Seeing that they seemed to be waiting for some answer, Mrs. Fang reached out and pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to her to wipe her hands, then helped her to the west room and said: "Mom, let's go into the house and talk."
As soon as the two people entered the house, Yang asked anxiously: "How are you doing? Have you asked the Jiang family?"
"Mom, the Jiang family only sent two servants to deliver gifts, so there is no way to ask about this kind of thing." Fang sighed, "Besides, if we ask this, we must not let people think that we are in a hurry to marry our daughter off." Going out? Jasmine is not that old, what will others think if this matter gets spread?"
Yang's face suddenly darkened when he heard this. He stood up and stared at Fang and asked, "Then you mean to say that you didn't ask about this matter at all today and you don't plan to ask in the future? Just wait for Jiang What about home?"
"Mom, the wedding date should have been brought up by the groom's family. Peony is only one year older than Lotus, so there is no need to be so anxious." Ms. Fang tried hard to explain, "Jasmine is celebrating the New Year. He's fourteen, and the Jiang family's boy is two years older than Jasmine. If nothing unexpected happens, his family will definitely bring up the wedding date next year... "
Yang slammed the handkerchief on Fang and said sternly: "I know you don't care about peony at all. You are not your mother after all. All you care about are jasmine and lotus. "
"Mother..." Mrs. Fang looked at Yang in surprise, stood up slowly and said, "Mother, what do you mean by this? Shaoyao has been living in my house for the past few years. Have I treated her badly or something? Although I am not my biological mother, but I can only treat her better than jasmine and lotus..."
Yang didn't want to listen to Fang at all. She raised her hand to stop her and said: "What you said is that you can make new clothes? Make delicious food? That's not something that only you can give. I'll give it to you after the New Year." Shaoyao will move here, there is room here anyway, I will just worry about it from now on."
