Chapter 425: Beggar
As far as Huajiao is concerned, the short conversation with Wang Wei that day was just an unintentional move that came to me and went with the flow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But as far as Wang Wei's little girl is concerned, she seems to regard this problem as bigger than the sky.
The next day, when I took the time to follow my friends to Qin's house to study, I had studied books and practiced calligraphy, and after Wang Wei packed up the pen and ink study, she did not take out a needlework basket to make socks as usual, but went straight to find the peppercorns nested in the corner.
When I walked in, I saw that the pepper was burying its head in front of the desk, but it was not learning the characters as usual, but smearing on the paper.
Wang Wei naturally didn't dare to make a sound, and still tiptoed to the side.
At a glance, I saw the lifelike portrait of the pepper pen, and I admired it.
She knew the purpose of the paper, and because of its transparency, it was usually used by women to draw patterns for embroidery.
However, some people will use the bright paper as window paper to make the house brighter, but in the end a few people can spend so much, after all, the bright paper is not cheaper than mulberry paper.
But now, she can't even walk the stitches very well, and all she can do is to save the leftover scraps of cloth from her grandmother, mother, and sisters into socks. Even my sister, although she can get rid of hand embroidery, what she can use is the patterns that have been passed down from her grandmother and mother for generations. Almost all of the new tricks learned now were learned from the Qin family, but I didn't expect that Sister Huajiao would be able to draw the patterns by herself.
How can you not admire.
I just thought about it, but I suddenly remembered the rumors in the countryside.
It is said that Sister Huajiao's father, who is now the most famous master in Chongtang, not only studies well, but also paints well.
Even in Lianxi City, there is a very rich old man, sitting in a sedan chair, holding silver, no, it is called the pen fee, and he came to ask the master to paint.
Thinking about it, Sister Huajiao must have been guided by the old man.
Wang Wei's little girl was imagining, and the peppercorns who had indeed been instructed by the so-called master had already noticed the movements around her.
Just finished the momentum, simply put down the pen, and when I looked up and saw that it was Wang Wei again, I laughed and asked her to sit again.
After Wang Wei sat down, he said with her: "Sister Huajiao, I thought about the question you asked me yesterday after I went home again, and what I particularly like seems to be not the Spring Festival, but it should be Qixi Festival." ”
Sichuan pepper was stunned.
After she casually asked a question yesterday, Wang Wei thought for a moment and told her that she liked the Spring Festival. The reason is very simple and very practical, saying that you can wear new clothes during the New Year, you can eat large pieces of meat, and you will not be beaten if you are naughty with your brothers.
But I didn't expect that overnight, I changed my mind. I didn't expect that she would think deeply about this matter after she went to her house.
Wang Wei has already explained: "The Spring Festival is naturally very good, but even good, it is too cold in winter." As soon as winter comes, frostbite will begin to form on the feet, hands, ears, and even faces, which will be painful and itchy, and even tricks will not work...... But Tanabata will not be like this, although the weather is hot, it is still cool in the morning and evening, and unlike the bare in winter, the grass and trees are also very lively. There's a lot to play, and even throwing needles, threading needles, and coincidental spiders, no matter how much trouble you make, you won't be able to talk about it, this is our own festival......"
Wang Wei said extremely seriously, and Sichuan pepper also listened very seriously.
From this day on, whenever Wang Wei came to the Qin family to study, she would find an opportunity to say a few words with peppercorns.
Naturally, there is no reason not to be her, and slowly, the two of them will be able to say something from all over the world.
It's just that the daily conversations between the two little girls are basically based on questioning, and one question and one answer is the norm, and they often swap roles.
The more the two little girls talk, the more natural they get along.
At least in the eyes of Sichuan pepper, it is.
After all, gradually, no matter which side it is, even if she occasionally can't answer the conversation and the topic is interrupted, Wang Wei will no longer be as embarrassed or helpless as she was at the beginning.
Wang Wei was indeed relieved.
The small talk with peppercorns that day can be said to be an unexpected joy for her.
But she couldn't help but feel faintly that this result didn't seem to be worth her surprise.
After all, the sisters and sisters next to her may not know, but she probably understands that they can have the opportunity to learn now, a chance to relax, a chance to think, in fact, this is all thanks to the pepper and bay leaves.
If they hadn't taken her envy seriously, the Qin family wouldn't have thought of providing a venue, and even provided them with money to buy oil candles in the study, and also prepared tea and tea for them, so thoughtful.
She didn't expect her hope to come true.
So all along, she felt that pepper should not be a difficult person to deal with.
There is a sentence that says, it seems to be cold and hot, maybe pepper is such a person?
So after going to the house yesterday, Wang Wei thought about it and decided to give it a try, so she turned out the question of Sichuan pepper and thought about it carefully, and in the following days, she took the initiative to talk to Sichuan pepper.
The situation is really getting better day by day, and as she thought, as long as she finds a way to get along, Hua Jiao is not a difficult person to deal with.
Not only is it not, but it is even worse than some of the Ming Dynasty, and the capricious sisters and sisters who are both capricious in three days get along much better.
Because of Wang Wei's casualness, the relationship between the two little girls is indeed becoming more and more relaxed.
But as time passed, a room of little girls couldn't help but be amazed when they saw it.
Muttering behind my back is a common thing.
Wang Wei's sister was surprised.
Privately asked my sister how she got involved with peppercorns, and said, "Have you been wronged?" ”
Fennel, who is a sister, is very happy, touching the horns of peppercorns, and said with a smile: "We have also made friends with peppercorns." Then he told her, "There are five things for a man, and no matter which one is missing, it is always unfulfilling." ”
In fact, fennel has always been puzzled, why the soft and glutinous leaves are very afraid of raw bay leaves have a lot of friends, but the seven tricks are exquisite, and the peppercorns that can be talked to everyone grow so big, in addition to their own sisters, there are also sisters of the in-laws, but there is no close friend.
Sichuan pepper didn't expect that even such a thing as making friends, fennel was worried about herself, and she felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
But he smiled and said: "I have friends, and my sisters are all my handkerchiefs!" ”
Fennel laughed as she heard this.
However, it is undeniable that the words of peppercorns are reasonable.
After all, not all sisters get along like their sisters.
Suddenly, he heard Huajiao say: "Sister, sister, let's have half a beggar meeting this year!" ”
Fennel looked at the peppercorns in some surprise.
Hua Jiao has already said: "We invited the little sisters who are familiar with each other to gather together to burn incense and worship, beg Qiaoqiao, eat Qiaoguo, and dye nails." ”
He also wrenched his fingers and said: "We have our own share of the offerings for the five sons of fruits, as well as tea and tea, flowers and red paper, vases and incense burners, sister, do you say it's okay?" ”
The more the sundrenches of the whimsical peppercorns talked, the more longing they became, and the fennel was also moved.
I don't think about it, but I think it's very interesting.
What's more, all kinds of dowries have been prepared, listening to the meaning of her father's mother's inadvertent outflow, she will go out in the first half of next year at the latest. Although after getting married, the new daughter-in-law and young woman can also beg, but how can this be the same.
Before Fennel could speak, Lilac had already jumped out: "What's good?" ”
Hua Jiao hurriedly repeated his meaning.
The best lively lilac naturally didn't say "bad", nodded hurriedly, and directly inquired: "How much silver do you want?" I couldn't take out a lot of them, so I took them away to the little four and five, but I still have five copper hangings. ”
Sichuan pepper laughed.
In fact, it's all the same, the little boys have the opportunity to follow Qin Lianbao and Qin Lianlong to the provincial capital to see the world this time, although the pepper sisters couldn't go with them, they all paid a lot of private money.
Especially peppercorns, don't look at their young age, but they are good at saving money among the small characters in the family, and there is naturally a reason why Luo's hands are scattered.
Luo never collects the New Year's money, greeting gifts, and pocket money that his children get everywhere, as long as she informs her when she spends money, there is nothing to do, the previous limit is still fifty coppers, but now it has increased tenfold.
But there is almost no place to spend money, which is also the reason why the peppercorns who are used to making handbooks have always been careful in their calculations, not like the little boys who saved money with cloves to buy things, nor like the fragrant leaves who are worried about delicious food. So most of the occasional expenses are spent on my brothers and sisters.
What's more, she is in time for a good time, in the years she has grown up, not only has the family begun to develop, but even the old days with a group of in-laws have become better and better, and her hands have grown up, and she has taken advantage of the youngest for six or seven years, and she has indeed saved a lot of private money.
Ordinary families may not be as wide as peppercorns.
And this time the little brothers went out collectively, although Qin Lianbao had already paid a large amount of silver from the public middle school to spend money along the road, but each person's grandmother still gave pocket money in case of emergency. Roche also sealed several purses, and everyone has a share in the little boy who lives in his own house. And Father Qin, Father Qin, and Lady Qin secretly stuffed silver in the past, but the pepper sisters still got together, not only did their brothers have a piece of entanglement, but like Qin's father and Qin Niang, Luo Ji Wenqi and others were not left behind.
In fact, not only the pepper sisters, but even the three sisters of Ya'er also made up the money.
The little boys, like the fourth cousin, the fifth cousin, and the seventh cousin, accepted the different sisters politely and happily.
However, although the three monkeys were not polite with their sisters, they counted the silver of the three of them, but they decided to scrape together their own silver and save them something that would not lose their value, such as hairpin rings and the like.
After all, it is not as good as their own sisters, it is not easy for these three sisters with different surnames to save some money, basically they are all saved for the New Year's money, and occasionally when they rush to the market, the copper distributed by the elders is reluctant to spend on weekdays, but this time they can't wait to take it out.
How can they have the face to spend their money?
But it made them think a little more.
I chased after the cloves and peppercorns a few times, asked them what gadgets they liked, and cooed with the cloves, ready to bring the best rouge gouache back to the provincial city with a box of fennel.
And the six cousins in the lobby, although they happily accepted the kindness of the sisters, they were ready to return it when they returned. As for Luo Ji Wenqi and others, they refused to take the money.
It is unimaginable to have such an opportunity to go to the provincial capital to see the world, not counting the fare of the car and boat, only the food and drink along the way, and even no money, where can I take the private money of the sisters. But in the end, I don't like to push and shove like this, so after thinking about it, I didn't say much, and I accepted it happily. But they were almost all locked in the cage and never brought out at all.
Only the pepper sisters don't know these, and the cloves are even more addicted to making up for it, and when they hear the money, they open their mouths to be a part.
Fennel glared at her angrily and funny: "Open your mouth is five hanging money, and dare to say that you have no money, I don't know, you are actually a rich man!" ”
Fennel remembers it properly, thinking that Qin Lianbao's monthly salary was only three taels of silver, and Rao is in Chongtang Market Town, which is an acre and three points of land, which is already comparable to the high salary of some shopkeepers, I don't know how many people envy Qin Lianbao's iron rice bowl.
"Hey, hey!" Lilac was taught a lesson by fennel, and she also felt that her tone was too big, so she hurriedly filled her stupidity and glanced at the peppercorns again.
Sichuan pepper pursed his lips and snickered, winked at the cloves, and counted with his fingers: "Tea and tea food, wild chrysanthemum, lotus, jasmine, mint, mulberry leaves, honeysuckle, licorice, wolfberry, green tea and even the family have it, as long as you buy some tea food such as Qiaoguo, this can be counted according to the head of the person we invited." Then the fruits offered, lotus pods, red lings, watermelons, plus longan, red dates, hazelnuts, peanuts, melon seeds, do not need much, 500 copper should be enough. Then flowers, red paper, vases, incense burners, all these are all in the house, at most buy a pack of needles, I see the four of us, each of us put together five hundred coppers, it is already inexhaustible. ”
"Then talk to the elders, and each of them will gather five hundred coppers to come out!"
Fennel clapped the decision, and turned to ask the bay leaves: "Is bay leaves okay?" ”
Xiangye nodded straight: "I'm rich, second sister." Then he asked Fennel: "Second sister, who do you want to invite?" Are all the literate sisters and sisters who follow us please? ”
Fennel thought about it for a while, and said: "Say hello, when the time comes, those who are willing to come will come, and those who are not empty will not be in the way, anyway, everyone will get together by fame, as long as they have fun." ”
After speaking, he said: "There are nearly ten years to go, which is enough for us to do." ”
Ding Xiang nodded even more: "I can't say that the third uncle and the fourth uncle will all come back by then!" ”
