Chapter 19: Making Wedding Dresses for Others
Qingzi and Xia Ziqiu talked and laughed for a while and went back, Xia Xuege got up to eat and prepared to start making the red wedding dress, although this is not separated, but it is better than the old mansion.
And Xia Xuege will not get along with silver, Xia Meier went to rejoice, although Xia Xuege regretted it in her heart, but it was just a pity, with such a grandfather and grandmother, and such a father, Xia Meier is estimated to have been used to exchange silver for her life in this life, but unfortunately, Xia Ziqiu's scholar has committed the sour rot again!
"Xue Ge, you said that your grandfather is like this, isn't it a little too ruthless, it's a pity for Mei'er's child......"
"Dad, you are purely nosy, you forgot about the matter between you and Ye Pozi yesterday, the people in the village may not say anything about me these days, and this matter, can you decide?"
Xia Xuege said, Xia Ziqiu pursed her lips, and Xia Xuege said again:
"Dad, you fight with my grandma, to be honest, you are really not an opponent, you see, my grandma has already involved my grandfather, how good I am, you know better than me, and yesterday at the beginning, it was clear that he was going to send me out, and after taking a word from my sister-in-law, she sold Mei'er."
"Chong Xi, this kind of thing, unless it is absolutely necessary, who will do it? And that day, the big housekeeper also said that the little boy was going to die, but my grandfather and my grandmother had made up their minds to exchange Mei'er for my fifth uncle's future. ”
Xia Xuege complained very much in her heart, Xia Ziqiu frowned when she heard it, and said lightly:
"Yes, you're right, Dad seems to be really a little too careful, but Dad really can't bear it, your uncle is with your grandfather, patriarchal, your aunt also wants money and doesn't want to die, if this Chongxi is good, Mei'er a village girl is estimated to be good in the Gaomen compound, and her days as a wife are over, if she can't rush well, people are still sick or dead, this thing has to be resented on her head, and she must not be tortured enough."
"Dad, no matter what, this matter is not something we can manage, you just need to take care of the two of us, but I always doubt a little, what is the dream of Gorou......"
"Alas, it's probably a child, who hears others say you're a ghost all day long, thinking about it day and dreaming about it night."
The conversation between the two ended here, saying that these were too disturbing, Xia Xuege was embroidering the wedding dress, and the Jinxiufang didn't know who Chongxi was, but he got the instructions of the Hua family, it was for an eleven-year-old child, Xia Meier was eleven years old, Xia Xuege came completely according to her figure, and Han Steward also mentioned some Jianyi, that is, to add some auspicious symbols, after all, this is Chongxi, Xia Xuege is not high-profile, the phoenix is the same theme, Xia Xuege embroidered a phoenix Yu Fei, and added a pomegranate flower, Pomegranate flower means more children and more blessings, the little boy of the flower family is the only seedling of the flower family, and the male groom clothes are a dragon, holding a peach in his hand, the little boy is about to hang the person, the peach means longevity, should be more core.
"Xue Ge, put down the work, you've been embroidering all morning, this embroidery hurts your eyes, rest and rest!"
"I know Dad, this is coming!"
Xia Ziqiu was setting up a meal in the hall and shouting Xia Xuege, alas, it is hard to make money, the price given by Jinxiufang is really tempting, but these two clothes sit down, Xia Xuege has to be busy for half a month.
"Dad, I know that embroidery hurts my eyes, I don't plan to embroider in the afternoon, let's go cut wild leeks, Tongfu Inn has not sent it today, and we will live here in the future, Dad, isn't the vegetable garden next to it also left by Uncle Seven, let's dig some leek roots and plant them back, anyway, it's too late to plant now, transplant some wild leeks, and plant them in the province next year."
"Cheng, by the way, Xue Ge, Dad made some pots, you take them as snacks, go out and play with the children in the village for a while, don't be bored at home all the time, Dad doesn't want to raise a stuffy gourd!"
"I know Dad, it seems that you are more bored than me!"
“……”
Xia Ziqiu didn't say anything, the two of them were eating just right, and there was a knock on the door outside, Xia Ziqiu went to open the door, and it was actually Xia Zijun, the second-rate son of the Xia family.
"Yo, third brother, it's a good day, just come out to live, it's a big fish and a big meat! Look at the corners of your mouth, there is still oil hanging on it! ”
Xia Zijun didn't say good things as soon as they met, and Xia Ziqiu couldn't help but glance at him.
"What a big fish and big meat, Zijun, you are too exalted to me, I just baked two oil cakes, why do you have something to do with me?"
"There's something, but it's not me who has something, it's my father looking for you, but the third brother, you can really do it, you haven't taken food out of the house, and you can make cakes, it's really ...... Gee. ”
Xia Zijun looked at Xia Ziqiu with bad intentions, and Xia Ziqiu frowned slightly.
"Zijun, look at what you said, people are iron and rice are steel, I can't cook yet, or you just say it, say that I didn't take any food from home, and cook pancakes the next day, you see what others say!"
"Third brother, you don't have to tell me this, I'm just curious, where did you get the money to buy food, forget it, Dad is looking for you in a hurry, come with me!"
Xia Zijun said with a smile, Xia Ziqiu cleaned up his appearance and followed Xia Zijun, as soon as he left, Xia Ziqiu walked for two hours, Xia Xuege sent wild leeks to Tongfu Inn, Xia Ziqiu came back, and his face was very tired.
"Dad, are you alright?"
Xia Xuege said, pouring water for Xia Ziqiu, Xia Ziqiu took the water and drank it all, and leaned on the chair in the hall very tiredly.
"It's okay, it's just that I've been talking about it by your grandfather for a long time, and I can't wait for the accounts of 800 years ago to be turned out, your fifth uncle is going to end, and your grandfather wants me to give out the silver!"
Xia Ziqiu said, Xia Xuege shook her head helplessly.
"Ye is staring at you, it's not that you don't have no money in the house, my grandfather has a hundred and ten taels of silver in his hand, the Xia family just looks hard, you save private money, my uncle must have saved more than you, you have been on me all these years, grandpa he is not, besides, grandpa has no money, I don't believe grandma has no money, it is estimated that she has the most private money in her hands."
"Alas, no matter, there's no money anyway, Xue Ge, go to bed early at night, let's go to the market with your Uncle Qingzi tomorrow, don't play too much, Dad is tired, rest first, remember to call Dad to get up and cook when it's late!"
After Xia Ziqiu finished speaking, she went back to her room to sleep, Xia Xuege shook her head, Old Man Xia really refused to let go of her father.
Naturally, Xia Ziqiu didn't need to cook dinner, Xia Xuege went to call Xia Ziqiu to get up to eat after cooking, Xia Ziqiu didn't know if it was because Old Man Xia asked him for money and was a little tired and panicked, he actually made a list of things to be sold tomorrow, Xia Xuege who saw it trembled in his heart, what pots and pans, Xia Ziqiu is planning to live here for a long time!
The morning wind at the beginning of summer was still cold, because of Ye Pozi's matter, Xia Ziqiu originally wanted to take the child to the market with everyone, but no one refused to let Xia Xuege follow, Qingzi was in a hurry, he drove his old father's ox cart to come, and a few Xia family clansmen came up, Xia Xuege shrunk in his small clothes and was hugged by Xia Ziqiu, so he showed a little space to eat pot there, Qingzi watched and smiled.
"Xue Ge, is it that cold? At the age of eight, let your father hold you, and in two years you will not be a child! ”
"Uncle Qingzi, isn't your sister Yu Jie still held by you when she was ten years old? I'm just cold, I'm more self-reliant than Sister Yu Jie! ”
Xia Xuege said, the corners of Qingzi's mouth twitched, who in the village doesn't know that he has a daughter, a gang of boys, and his family is not patriarchal, this is the only one, and the boss's daughter, can it not hurt! The little stone next to him also smiled, and the eight-year-old child looked at the pot in Xia Xue's singer with envious eyes, this is made of rice, and the village is willing to spend so much money and time to make pot for the child, and it is only Xia Ziqiu.
"Little stone, do you want to eat it?"
Xia Xuege stretched out the pot and shook it at the small stone, the little stone nodded vigorously, and then shook his head again.
"I want to eat, but my father said that it was useless."
"Reactive and unrelenting? Then you can be my little brother, boss, I'll give you a pot to eat! ”
Xia Xuege teased Xiao Shi, she is a child now, so she doesn't want to live so well, and Xiao Shi shook his head desperately when he heard that Xia Xuege wanted him to be his little brother.
"It's okay for me to work for you, I'm a man, I'll give you a girl to be a little brother, it's very shameless!"
"Hahahaha."
Xiao Shi's words amused everyone, Xia Xuege gave him a pot, such a child is much better than Shiro Goro!
The ox cart arrived at the big set in a while, Xia Ziqiu had a lot of things to buy, and directly sent Xia Xuege to Jinxiufang, let her stay there first, Xia Xuege sold purses and handkerchiefs, this time Xia Xuege still sold cloth, she was busy with the wedding dress, how could she have time to care about these, but Aunt Qing has time, Qingzi has always been good to his family, can make money, and it is also appropriate to bring Aunt Qing! And Steward Han was also very satisfied with the style of the wedding dress described by Xia Xuege.
Xia Ziqiu is very efficient, and after a while, he came to pick Xia Xuege away, leisurely being held by Xia Ziqiu to go shopping, Xia Xuege was very happy, he was made by the people of the old house in the past two days, his mood was jealous and depressed, wandering on the street, the food at home was almost equal to nothing, otherwise Xia Ziqiu would not have come to the big set, Xia Ziqiu sold some rice and some brown rice, even if the family has some money now, but it can't be spent indiscriminately, that Huichun Hall has an ointment to treat burns, the effect is very good, but it is too expensive, It costs a hundred taels of silver, how can it be faster to save money than to save money lavishly, but since Sanfang has been cooking by himself, the rice has been white in the past few days, Xia Xuege's yellow complexion can be regarded as a little improved, and he is reluctant to let the child suffer hardship, this brown rice, Xia Ziqiu is planning to buy it for himself.
