252 From simplicity to luxury
Su Baile was in good spirits, and carefully dealt with Mrs. Ji. I don't know what Mrs. Ji thinks, after a few rounds of politeness with her, she opened her mouth to leave her for breakfast, Su Baile naturally knew that she was giving an eviction order, and immediately stood up and said goodbye to her.
Before leaving, the old lady gave her another golden hairpin inlaid with a sparkling red light.
Su Baile doesn't know much about jewelry.
But as soon as she saw this golden hairpin, she sighed that the wisdom of the ancients was better than that of modern people.
It is said that it is a golden hairpin, but in the final analysis, it is a hosta.
However, it is made by hollowing out the technique and using the process of 'gold and jade'.
This golden hairpin is made of openwork gold to enclose a full bar of ruby, and the larger end is embellished with a golden butterfly with wings ready to fly.
This kind of process is not outdated even now.
Su Baile looked at the golden hairpin in his hand, then looked at the kind-looking old lady Ji, and then glanced at the food on the table in front of her, hesitated again and again, and finally said: "Old lady, Su has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”
Old Madam Ji put on a smile on her face, didn't even look at her, took the spoon from the old lady beside her, and said lightly: "Miss Su might as well say it directly." ”
Su Baile pursed his lips and stood beside her and looked at her quietly.
The grandmother beside Mrs. Ji had already picked up a bowl of soup and handed it to her, seeing that Su Baile did not speak, she raised her head to look at her, and was about to speak, but saw Su Baile gently shake her head at her.
Su Baile really didn't know what Mrs. Ji's purpose was, and as soon as she left the old lady's yard, she carefully looked at the golden hairpin that the old lady had given.
At first glance, there was nothing special, but after a closer look, Su Baile still saw a little Mingtang.
The red stone treasure was a complete red jade with a hint of gold on it. It's just that this gold wire is not conspicuous under the wrapping of hollowed-out gold.
Su Baile looked back at the courtyard behind him again, this Ji Mansion is really rich!
It's just that she really doesn't understand what kind of calculation this old lady is making.
Figuring out people's hearts, she Su Baile is really not good at it. And the people in this courtyard are all good at it, even in the face of this old lady who looks kind, she is more than enough and not enough.
She followed an old lady back to Ji Yuexiu's yard.
At this time, the courtyard is fully staffed.
Su's mother, Su's father, Xiaowen Xiaowu, and nephew Yangyang, all sat in the house and were eating breakfast.
Seeing her come in, Su Mu put on a smile on her face and asked, "Lele, where did you go early in the morning, why did you come back and eat?"
Su Baile swept his eyes and found that there was no Ji Yuexiu in front of the table, and asked, "Xiao Wu, where is Yuexiu, where did she go?"
Su Baiwu only cared about eating his own food, and didn't raise his head: "I said I was going to listen to music with her sisters." ”
Su Baile nodded clearly, then found a place to sit down, and then picked up the bowl, she looked around again, and said, "By the way, father, mother, I want to discuss something with you." ”
Su Mu was feeding Yangyang rice cereal, and said, "Say it, I'll listen." ”
After pondering for a while, Su Baile said slowly: "That's the case, since Xiaowen wants to stay in the county, then I don't think it's better for all of us to stay, Daddy, what do you think?"
As soon as he heard Su Baile say this, Su Baiwen was stunned at first, and then ecstatic: "Sister, are you serious, can we really stay?"
Su Baile nodded seriously: "Xiaowen, if you want to learn to play the sheng here, my sister won't stop you." It's just that I don't feel at ease if I leave you here alone. I think even my father and mother won't be at ease. Rather than that, let's all stay together. When the time comes, we can buy a few more plots of land in the suburbs outside the city and plant them, or we can collect some rent for others to plant, and then we can buy a yard in the city.
Su Baiwu raised his head at this time, looked at Su Baile in surprise, and said, "Sister, can't we live here all the time?"
Su Baile glanced at him: "Xiao Wu, this is your daughter-in-law's mother's home, if you like it, you can live here." But we are different, your daughter-in-law's family and our Su family have no relationship in the first place. If you let us stay, in what capacity do you want us to stay?"
Without waiting for Su Baiwu to speak, she continued: "Is it Miss Ji's husband's family? Don't you forget, even your father-in-law, they would rather live in that place in Dasu Village than stay in their own family, if there is nothing in it, do you believe it?"
In a word, Su Baiwu was in a fog, and he didn't turn a corner at all.
Father Su agreed with what Su Baile said: "This is good. We have to live here for a year, and there is no reason to let the Ji family vacate the house for us, so that we can live forever. He looked at Su Baile: "Lele, I agree with your idea, it's just that you ...... how much it costs to buy a yard."
When Su Baiwu saw Father Su say this, he was so angry that he threw away the chopsticks in his hand, and interrupted him before he could finish speaking: "Dad, isn't it good for us to live here? We eat well and live well here, what are you not satisfied with?"
Su's mother has always looked at Su's father, seeing that Su Baiwu was so ignorant, she frowned and said: "Xiao Wu, what does it mean when you enter a wealthy family and are as deep as the sea, you should know better than me, right?
Su Baile said, and she agreed, "Your sister is right, if we want to stay here, it's better to move out and live early, so as not to make people criticized." ”
Su Baiwu rolled his eyes: "If you want to move, I won't move." Finally, I didn't have to do all that coolie, so I didn't bother to go back to that hardship. ”
Su Baile looked at him deeply.
This Su Baiwu was still defeated by Jinyi Yushi in the end!
It is said that it is easy to go from simplicity to luxury, and it is difficult to enter simplicity from luxury, they are just being a guest, this Su Baiwu is such an attitude.
Su Baile didn't have a good face at the moment: "Su Baiwu, if you want to live here, my sister won't stop you." However, we and my parents will definitely have to move out. Whether you agree or not, it's an ironclad fact. ”
Su Baiwu threw away his chopsticks and shook a cold face: "I want to move you, anyway, I plan to live here." ”
Su Baile's face changed slightly, and he said coldly: "Su Baiwu, this is your attitude towards your father?"
Throwing chopsticks in front of my father and mother, to say that it is small, it is not sensible, but to say it big, it is unfilial.
In ancient times, this unfilial hat was buttoned down, and it was a very serious matter.
Filial piety comes first, if a gentleman can't even do the simplest word filial piety, his future will be worried.
Su Baile has experienced this kind of thing a lot, and he also knows the stakes.
She had seen it with her own eyes in Helan Mansion, and it was just a servant.
It was precisely because of the word unfilial piety that the head of the Helan family beat the person half to death without even blinking an eye and threw him out.
They can't even look down on a servant, not to mention that you are still a serious peasant with a serious identity?
It's just that what Su Baile didn't expect was that after living in Ji Mansion for a long time, she had already lost her prestige in front of Su Baiwu.
I saw Su Baiwu simply clasped his hands and squinted at Su Baile, looking like a second master: "What kind of attitude? You have to be self-aware, if it weren't for me, you would be able to live in such a comfortable room today?" The corners of his mouth twitched, and his hand raised: "There are so many subordinates waiting?"
"If it weren't for me, you would still be plowing the ground in that poor countryside in Dasu Village!"
