Chapter 20 Like a Fish in the Throat

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the cherries were red and the plantain was green. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, Quanzhou does not produce cherries, and most of the cherries on the market are transported from other places by small traders, which are ridiculously expensive.

But Lin sent a basket to the old lady early, "The doctor said that these things are most suitable for honoring the elderly." ”

After all, it was only the end of April, and cherries were not on the market in large quantities, and they were occasionally sold for fifteen taels of silver a catty. The old lady was reluctant to enjoy it alone, so she first instructed Huang Xiaoshan's family to send half of it to the Ye family, and then gave half of the rest to Yang Shuyi, and then chose a small plate for Ye Jinhui and Ye Jinyue.

Yang Shuyi asked the maid Xinyan to carry half a basket back to the old lady, "The second cousin-in-law also brought a basket to me, I don't like to eat sour, borrow flowers and offer half of them to my aunt to try, and the other half I have already helped you soak in the flower carving, and it is best to drink a cup when you have leisure." ”

Ye Jinyue said with a smile: "Doctor Liu said that this wine can repel insects, and it is good for the little girl to eat it." As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Jinhui as if he had inadvertently said, "Didn't the eldest sister say that the Dragon Boat Festival would invite the sister of the Yao family to our house to play?" If it is implemented, my mother said that she will also give us a basket of cherries. ”

"Send a basket of cherries, when the girls come, they naturally want to mention the person who sent the cherries, and the girls of the Yao family will definitely look down on you. In the girl's family, reputation is the best dowry, otherwise how can so many people learn what piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? To say it well is to cultivate sentiment, and to put it bluntly is to be famous. Lin taught his daughter this behind his back.

"Miss Yao will definitely not come." Ye Jinyue laughed, looking like she didn't think too much of the stage when watching the play.

Quanzhou has the custom of dragon boat racing on May 5 every year, and the girls of the Yao family will naturally not miss the dragon boat race in order to eat a few zongzi, and Ye Jinhui of course also knows that the girls of the Yao family will not come to the Ye family during the Dragon Boat Festival.

Still, that's exactly what she wanted.

"If the girl of the Yao family doesn't come, won't the second aunt just save a basket of cherries?" Ye Jinhui said, turned his head and discussed with the old lady, "In addition to the meat dumplings, let's wrap some sweet dumplings?" ”

When people get older, they like to eat sweets, and the old lady agrees with a smile.

Ye Jinyue sneered: "What did you say about inviting the sister of the Yao family to eat zongzi, it is obvious that my sister wants to eat zongzi herself, right?" ”

Since beating Ye Jinhui and begging for a coincidence, Ye Jinyue began to fight against her everywhere, but Ye Jinhui didn't know what to do, and only smiled: "Sister, do you know that when it comes to the Dragon Boat Festival, every household in Quanzhou City wants to make zongzi?" ”

Ye Jinyue: "It's delicious, but I still find some names to come out." ”

When the old lady heard this, she inevitably frowned and said, "Go to your room and copy the "Female Commandment" twenty times, but if you can't finish copying it, you can't go out." ”

Although Ye Jinyue is young, she works very hard to learn, and she must spend two hours a day painting red, and when she heard about such a punishment, she accepted it calmly.

But after all, she has only begun to read for a long time, and she still can't recognize a few words, and it is very difficult to copy the "Female Commandment", often a few words cannot be copied in an hour, and often have to be lost and rewritten.

When it was handed over in May, the newly appointed prefect summoned the big families in the city to raise a lot of money to come out, and prepared to race the dragon boat on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was said that the person who won the first prize would be rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver, and would also have the privilege of free docking at all ports in Quanzhou.

Since the construction of the ship division in Quanzhou, I don't know how many merchant ships have been ushered in, and the big families in the territory are all so rich that they will not look at the thousand taels of silver in their eyes at all, but the privilege of docking freely in all ports is something that all sailors dream of.

According to Ye Jinyue's progress, he couldn't finish copying the "Female Commandment" twenty times during the Dragon Boat Festival.

If you can't finish copying, it means that you can't go out to see the grand occasion of this year's dragon boat race!

After all, Ye Jinyue was still young, and she felt a little wronged about being punished, and she couldn't participate in the grand occasion that was rare for many years, so she couldn't help but go back to the second room to find the Lin family with tears in her eyes.

Since the Tang family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were kicked out of the Ye family, and Qiqiao followed the rules of the Xin Dazhuang family, the Lin family didn't know much about the affairs of the main courtyard, and after listening to Ye Jinyue's crying at this time, his face immediately became very difficult to look at.

"Little slut! It's so deceitful! ”

However, after all, the order to punish Ye Jinyue was given by the old lady, and it was impossible for the Lin family to go to her mother-in-law to theorize seriously, but sat in the room and cried "woo".

Second Master Ye, who was locked in the study and was reading hard, was confused by his wife and daughter's crying, and he had to ask what happened.

"It's all granddaughters, a joke between sisters, why did the old lady punish Yue'er?"

Second Master Ye: "Does my wife also think that she really wants to make zongzi because she is delicious?" ”

Lin: "Is this still fake? The little girl is like a hungry wolf all day long, and she knows how to eat the most, if you don't eat the steamed eggs without clams, you will get pepper, cumin, and chili peppers when you eat beef and mutton...... There are more than a dozen kinds of condiments for roasting a duck on the list, fortunately the old lady is thrifty, otherwise the Ye family will be eaten by her sooner or later! ”

Second Master Ye's face was a little unsightly, "When it comes to the Dragon Boat Festival in Quanzhou City, every household has to wrap meat dumplings, and before eating it yourself, you must first choose the best one to worship the ancestors and gods." "If the people who want to eat zongzi are delicious, isn't that saying that the people in Quanzhou City, including the dead ancestors, are delicious?" Yue'er said the wrong thing and deserved to be punished, and twenty times of "The Female Commandment" was only a few days' work, she was young, so she could spend more effort on it. She's a child who doesn't know anything, why are you a mother making a fuss? ”

My daughter was wronged, and you, the father, didn't support her, but helped train her? He must still be thinking about Shen's slut in his heart!

"I'm tired of working for this house, what are you trying to do? My lord is training me for someone else? Lin couldn't help but raise his voice.

A-Niang said, the matter of the inner house is either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overwhelms the east wind, and women occasionally use the tricks of one use, one crying, two trouble, and three hangings, and they will definitely receive unexpected results.

Is it easy for her to take out the money to buy supplements for her husband and manage the family's food and clothing?

This dead person with no conscience was hooked by the fox, and it was not her to pick her in advance!

The more Lin thought about it, the more angry he became, and the expression on his face became gloomy.

When Second Master Ye saw the Lin family like this, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

The godson in front of the hall, the godwife by the pillow, he thinks he has done nothing wrong, but his wife looks at him as if he has done something sorry for her!

Only women and villains are difficult to raise!

Second Master Ye didn't want to be like his wife, so he brushed his sleeves away in disgust.

After getting married, there was a gap in the hearts of the two, but they had always respected each other like guests, and the Lin family no longer expected that Second Master Ye would reprimand himself for his niece today.

Every time she thought of Shen's mother and daughter, she felt like a fish in her throat.

This matter must be solved as soon as possible!

Thinking about this, Lin quickly wiped away his tears and re-groomed his makeup, "Go and ask my cousin if she has time to watch a puppet show." ”
