Chapter 158: A New Atmosphere for the Spring Festival
Speaking of the street, Xia Qing knew in her heart that the most beautiful place in the city now was the "Gu Furniture Store", which had just opened, which should be the handiwork of a colleague.
Xia Qing is full of guilt, she is all dressed, how can people live so independently and autonomously? Unlike herself, relying on three and four, as if she could not succeed without the help of nobles!
However, "Gu's Furniture Store" Xia Qing just glanced at it, or followed the uncle's sisters to see it, her father is the sister of the cabinet and military aircraft counselor, and she has already decided to marry, and Wu Shijiang, who is a member of the family, is currently a small leader in the avant-garde battalion, and the family is the main pro, and the Spring Festival in two years will be married, and now is the time to prepare the dowry, the daughter's family has its own sources, and soon, she will know that there is a furniture shop at the big front door, needless to say, the materials are exquisite, and the key is novel...... The low chair called the fabric sofa is said to be very soft and easy to sit on, making people feel comfortable and want to sleep...... Sister Xiang has this condition and wants to add some characteristics to her dowry!
Father is a friend, these children are also close, Xia Qing's circle of friends naturally added the sisters and sisters of these seven families, there are about thirty people, usually come and go, all of them are concubines, about ten people are about the same age, although Xia Qing is only thirteen years old, but with fifteen or sixteen years old, they are closer, who called their mothers have said that Xia Qing has a set of tidying up the house, and she can learn from her......
That day, the sister of the Xiang family led the way and went to see the furniture store together, Xia Qing sat on various sofas and Simmons mattresses excitedly. A picture that Grandma Liu has never seen before, in fact, she laughed so much in her heart that her intestines were about to cramp.
The sofa is just some fabric, and it will be sold for nearly 100 taels of silver? I don't use real leather! I stretched out my hand and pressed it, it should be cotton or something, and I am not afraid that someone will take it apart and look at it and return it? How many catties of cotton. Selling people for a hundred taels of silver? This hand is really not soft!
Xia Qing did not order the sofa. She smiled at Sister Xiang and said, "It's too soft, I'm not used to it." So soft, what is it made of. Quilt?" Xia Qing's last appearance in the furniture store disappointed many people who were waiting for her to show her feet.
Sister Xiangjia ordered a set, a corner sofa. One hundred and fifty taels of silver, it can be seen that Xia Qing really wants to take this money. Forget it yourself!but...... Don't stretch out your hand, and you will be caught...... Xia Qing knew that there were many people waiting for her! But it was so wonderful to look at others in the dark! There were already people in the city copying Gu's furniture. Therefore, Xia Qing did not hesitate to imitate a baby high seat for US dollars.
Who told this guy to think that he was a person, and he had to be served at the table when he ate, and he was forced by his height. It's really on the table, Xia Qing hopes to have a harmonious dining environment and eat at the same table with the cat. Even if you don't eat a dish, it's not comfortable. Make a high chair for a baby. Convenient for each other......
With her brother alone, Xia Qing's family was reunited, of course Xia Qing had a plan in her heart, but it was just inconvenient to talk to others.
At present, concentrating is to seriously prepare for the first banquet in the Mu Mansion to entertain the uncles, this is different from the warm house banquet, although the number of guests is about the same, it is really difficult to feel at home, Xia Qing thought about it, and simply cleaned up the east and west wings of the main courtyard, and the family can be assigned to a few rooms like one light and two dark, which is very good for resting, and Steward Mu also agreed, thinking that this is really a good way! I am familiar with the habits and preferences of several uncles, which is much easier to do, no more purposeless than when I prepared the sitting room for Aunt Yi, at that time, it was really estimated to do, and the six rooms prepared this time were very targeted, such as Uncle Xiang's, the natural literati atmosphere is heavier...... Uncle Zhong's, then you have to be generous and steady...... There is a small plaque hanging on the lintel, and I can't get any good names, Xia Qing is simple and clear, and it is not good to write the surname directly, so I simply wrote a few according to the name of the word plate, one inch of gold, two color lotus, three bachelors, four garden bamboo, five more turns, six is Mu Yong's ranking, naturally provincial, seven is Yi Chunqiu, there is a house, and there is no need to hang the name, it is really the name of the word brand of seven only to have a seven lady, this is a bit bad! Eight beats are barbaric, but also full of majesty, just right......
One qiē is ready, it will soon be thirty, although the Xia family is not complete this year, but Grandpa Xia feels very comfortable, this is the first year to become a free man, to become a commoner! Although there is a grandson who does not know the whereabouts, secretly thinking about the eldest son who married the wrong daughter-in-law, and the two grandsons who did not learn well with his mother, but this year is really happy!
Thirty is over, on the morning of the first day of the new year, Grandpa Xia sent the New Year's money to Xia Qing, meaning, meaning wrapped sixty copper plates, and now he eats and wears his granddaughter's, what can it mean if he gives more?
Grandpa Xia took the family back to "Happy Horse Village", and there are still a few families waiting for them to celebrate the New Year. Of course, on the evening of the thirtieth day, I had to listen to Grandpa Xia's repeated praise of Xia Qing, who had learned so well at a young age, and could see this natural disaster, which was something that only an old farmer could know a little about! Xia Qing smiled and said nothing, only pushed it to see it in the book, Xia Lao Er would only be on the side, smiling proudly, and not looking at whose baby it was...... Reluctantly sent the four away, watching Zhang Gang and the three escort the two carriages away, Xia Qing took Zhuang Niang and Zhen Niangniang to the Zhong family for the New Year!
Originally, I was supposed to take Mama Mu to go, but now there are too many things in the house, and Mama Mu has to take the idea, plus Xia Qing's rules are almost satisfactory to Mama Mu now, so I let Zhenniang follow, she has martial arts, in fact, it is more effective than Mama Mu!
On the first day of the new year, Zhenniang got such an important job, and she was a beauty in her heart, and it seemed that she was also an old man...... It feels good to be recognized.
The Zhong family has been there too many times, and Xia Qing walked directly to Jiani's courtyard, where she has a room, which is really convenient......
Zhong Jiani didn't wait for her in the house, and she didn't go to the second gate to pick her up just now, which is a bit strange......
However, soon, Xia Qing knew why......
Jiani's personal big girl came into the courtyard and saw Xia Qing like a treasure:
"Girl, go and save my girl, she was pulled by the fourth girl, on the first day of the first month, she made one cry, how bad is this!"
In other words, if you cry on the first day of the first month, you will cry often throughout the year...... It's not a good sign, Xia Qing hurriedly took her girl to the courtyard of the fourth girl. (To be continued.) )
