After Qi Jintang came to Beijing, He Hua just stayed at home obediently, and occasionally followed Xiao Xiu to pick up a needle and do some sewing. Her temper gradually became calmer. Apart from occasionally joking with her family, she didn't even talk much.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Fang couldn't help but said to Xiao Xiu behind her back: "Originally, when I saw her getting engaged, she still had the same out-of-control temper, and I always felt worried. Now I see that she is still young and ignorant before. Now that the wedding is approaching, but It’s finally settled.”
Xiao Xiu knew He Hua better than Fang. After hearing this, she said, "Mom, I just noticed that He Hua has a plan in his heart. He usually only acts coquettishly in front of his family. It's not like he's ignorant, but it's accidental." Childish, whether it’s what Bao’er’s dad said or what I’ve seen in the past few years, she has great ideas in major matters. Bao’er’s dad Chapter 337: Sun Jianyu often makes excuses to give wedding gifts. Let her go and tell her, Mom just keeps her heart in her stomach, there is no need to worry."
Mrs. Fang just said a few words in vain. Seeing Xiao Xiu say this, she ignored it and just summed up He Hua's dowry and said: "The bedding for the wedding day you all brought back from the south. The wedding tent is all ready, and the rest of the bedding and bedding are all ready-made. I'll just make them when the time comes. I'm only thinking about the wedding dress now. She doesn't have the needlework, so you'll have to bother to help her."
"Don't worry, Mom, I've been thinking about it for a long time. After all, I've done it myself, but I don't know what's popular nowadays. If Mom is free tomorrow, we girls can go out for a walk and look around to see what we can buy. "Xiao Xiu naturally agreed.
As expected, the two of them went shopping on the street the next day. Fang always wanted to buy everything he saw. It was hard for Xiao Xiu to dissuade a girl from marrying a girl, so she could only carry the things along with her. Fortunately, Fang only bought a few. Then he gave it up. Firstly, no matter how good the things in the city were, they were brought back carefully by Bo Rong from the south. Secondly, he thought about where he might end up with Qi Jintang in the future, and suddenly felt that he had no idea. Feeling interested, he just pulled Xiao Xiu and walked slowly until he walked out of the street and walked to the river. Chapter 337 Sun Jianyu came to his senses with an excuse to send a wedding gift.
Standing on the roadside, staring at the river in a daze, he sighed and said: "I used to just want her to marry me, no matter what kind of family, as long as she has good character, but I didn't expect that Yuelao has her own destiny. In the future, I might marry someone far away from home, and it would be difficult for the two of us to even meet."
"It's not time to get married yet, so mom is like this. If it's time to get married, what will happen to mom?" Xiaoxiu consoled her, "When my second uncle and third uncle are both out of work, mom will have some free time and think about it." Whose house can't you go to for a walk? If you like it, go and live there for two years. If you don't like it, just move to another place. If you miss someone, you can't see them."
"As you put it lightly, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and you have to travel a lot, not to mention food, housing and supplies. It can't be as good as you think." Fang smiled reluctantly and stopped mentioning those words.
It has snowed since the beginning of September, and the weather has been getting colder day by day. Hehua is getting more and more lazy every day sitting in the house. He is not even willing to interfere in the affairs of the shop. Every day, he is either reading or sewing a few stitches, doing accounts. They were also sorted out again and handed back to Fang.
Seeing that she didn't like to move in the house every day, Mrs. Fang was worried that she might have something on her mind or feel uncomfortable. She asked several times but couldn't find anything, so she just took advantage of her birthday to call Jasmine back. We can't do anything in Xiaoli, but we can still get together at home anyway.
After having dinner together, Fang took the opportunity to quietly tell Jasmine: "Your second sister seems to have lost her energy in the past two months. She used to rush to help me make up my mind about everything, but now she can't even tell me anything when I ask her." What, I initially thought she was uncomfortable but said she wasn't, asked her what was wrong but then said she was fine, which made me think to myself, you sisters have always been close, why don't you ask her."
After hearing this, Jasmine handed the swastika she was holding to Mrs. Fang, and said comfortingly: "I think she is thinking about the Qi family brother. Although she will definitely not be short of food and clothing when she goes to Beijing, she can't. She is always worried about whether she can pass the exam, but she feels embarrassed to say it in her heart, Mom, there is no need to worry too much."
After hearing this, Mrs. Fang felt that what Jasmine said was reasonable, and nodded repeatedly: "No wonder, now that he is older, he is even shy in front of his own mother. In fact, let me tell you, the brother of the Qi family is already a member of the Juren family. It's a very good fortune. Whether or not she can pass the exam this time is not a big deal, but she still keeps it in her heart."
In the evening, Mrs. Fang brought her own daughter to lull her to sleep, leaving Jasmine and Sister Hehua to talk together.
Jasmine talked to Hehua about Fang's worries, and complained: "Seeing that I can't stay at my mother's house for more than half a year, you don't make her happy, and you make her worry. But the bigger she gets, the more she grows back." .”
"Sister, you don't know what I'm thinking. I always felt that I was still young and could always stay at home for a few more years. I thought that everything would be done according to my wishes. Thanks to my parents' good temper, they would obey me in everything. But since the last time we talked about the wedding day, I started to have some thoughts, and I saw that my mother was used to asking me about everything, what will happen if I get married in the future? Seeing that the period of filial piety is over, my eldest brother We have to go south. Even though we are close, you are married after all. Besides, we are not in the same place, so we can’t take care of you. Although Boning is steady, his mind is on books, and Shuanzi is still young. I Now I will hand over all the accounts and force my mother to make her own decisions on everything. I hope that when I get out of the house, things will go smoothly at home."
"You are right to think about this. I didn't think of this. But I will tell you something that will reassure you. Your brother-in-law is staying at home and not making any progress. The old man at home sees that he now has children. I started to urge him to make progress again, and after the New Year, I will send him to take the childbirth examination again. This time, I put it in front of the county magistrate as a favor, and I am sure he will win."
"Then I would like to congratulate the eldest sister and brother-in-law first!" He Hua said with a smile.
"I won't reject your congratulations, but the benefits are yet to come." Jasmine smiled and said into Hehua's ear, "Think about it, once he is selected as a scholar, he will have to go to the city to study. I can't let him live by himself, and I'm not sure he might be willing to do so. At that time, I can look for a house close to our house, or simply go to our house and live in the yard. Will I be able to take care of my parents and children nearby? We are at home, so I say, just rest assured and prepare well to be your Jinshi wife!"
"It's great that this is true, I'm relieved." Hehua was happy at first, and then when Jasmine made fun of herself, she pushed her and sighed, "Don't say that! How can you easily get the Jinshi? In the beginning, The three of them went to take the exam together, but only one of them got it. It was probably because there was someone in the court who was easy to do. Now they just go to the exam with such red eyebrows and white eyes, and they still don't know what kind of luck it is!" Lotus Qi Jintangzhong He didn't really care whether he was promoted to a candidate or a Jinshi. He just felt that it was up to him to do whatever he liked, so he didn't really care about it.
"According to what you said, those people who are hired by the court every three years are all those who have someone in the court?" Jasmine said unconvinced, "If I say that I have real ability, then I will be lucky."
"That requires great talent. You always see these people standing out in front of you, but you don't know where they can be ranked in the entire Taoist government or the entire world!" Hehua yawned, " Go to bed quickly, you talk so much every time you come back."
Jasmine stayed at home for a few days this time and pestered Mrs. Fang to learn two kinds of medicinal food. She said that she would be a filial piety to her elders when she returned home. Mrs. Fang was naturally happy after hearing this. She picked up some food for the old man to eat and taught her a few things. She went back to curry favor with the old lady and the old man.
At the end of the year, there were several more carts of things brought back from the south. The servants of the Sun family brought them here, saying they were brought back for Uncle Zhu.
Naturally, this wish had to be Bo Rong. Although Fang accepted it, she was puzzled. When she asked Xiao Xiu, she didn’t know. When Bo Rong came back and asked again, she actually said she didn’t know.
Fang was surprised at this, "Is it possible that this was sent to the wrong place?"
Bo Rong went to look at the boxes. There were red seals on them and writings on them. The words were from Sun Jianyu, and it was also written that they were for him.
When I opened the box, I saw that most of them were filled with silks and satins of various colors, as well as embroidered curtains and tents. Several boxes were so full that I couldn't even put them in. There were also thin bamboo mats and bamboo mats from the south. There are also a few hanging bamboo curtains with clever colors and patterns, a few boxes of special local utensils, and a lot of things for children to play with, scattered here and there. There was a letter in the first box. It was simply written. Since it was sent back by one of my own servants, I simply didn’t write a gift list. I just said a few greetings, told him to go back as soon as he was full of filial piety, and also made some idle remarks. , on the contrary, he just brushed off the things he gave. He only mentioned that everyone was sharing things at the end of the year, and they were not worth the money. Although he went home to observe filial piety, he couldn't miss his share. He just came back to give New Year's gifts to people. He brought them back together and told him not to refuse them, either to use them at home or to give them as gifts. After all, they were all rare things in the north.
Borong was a little worried about it. Seeing that the things were all red and pretty, he knew in his heart that they should be given to Lotus as a dowry, but it was just because of his own reputation, so he simply didn't look inside and just gave them to Fang. He said, "Just use these materials to make things for Hehua. They are all of the best quality. Even if you don't need them, take them to the dowry and keep them to make things for her."
In the evening, after Xiaoxiu put the children to sleep, she asked Bo Rong: "Master Sun, what do you mean? I see those things, they must be specially prepared for the lotus, right? Mother doesn't know that I have seen it a few times in the south." Yes, but they are all of good quality. How much do those boxes cost?"
"They were all delivered to the door of the house, and my mother also picked her up. Could it be that I asked the escort agency to send them back?" Bo Rong took off his shoes and got on the kang. He sighed a little in his heart, but he didn't want to say it in front of Xiao Xiu, so he just lay there. He pulled off the quilt and said, "Go to sleep. I will take care of the favors you owe me. Just help your mother arrange Lotus's dowry and ignore the rest." Ro! ! !
