Volume 1 Chapter 46 Children's Events
Master Li was canonized by the emperor, and the Jin family was filled with joy, red lanterns were hung inside and outside the house, and the minions who came in and out were all full of joy. Feng Shi set up a table of banquets and made a lot of Aunt Li's favorite dishes.
The eldest man was afraid that their girls would be inconvenient, so after drinking a few glasses of wine, he said that he had something to do and went to the study. Brother Yu simply ate a few bites and went back to study, leaving the Feng family and the others to have a good drink.
The old lady said that today was Aunt Lei's big day, and she had to toast, and the old lady was together, and the others followed suit. Aunt Li couldn't put it away, and drank several large cups in succession, and her face was a little red.
It's been a long time since I've drunk like this, and I'm a little drunk. If I talk nonsense for a while, don't laugh at me, old lady. Aunt Leigh said with a smile covering her cheeks.
The old lady laughed when she heard it, she was happy today, and there are no grandfathers, so it doesn't matter if our mothers are drunk.
My sixth brother and I are gentlemen! Brother Han craned his neck and shouted.
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and the old lady pointed to his head and scolded with a smile: The hair has not grown, and he is still drinking milk, where is the master?
Brother Han raised his head, put down the spoon in his hand in annoyance, pushed the half-eaten cheese aside, and looked like a little gluttonous cat with white flowers on the corners of his mouth. He likes to drink milk the most, and he didn't sleep with the nurse until last year, but he still has to eat milk food two or three times a day.
Add white sugar to the milk, put it in a pot and simmer slowly until small bubbles bubble out. Turn off the heat, cool for a while, then pour the ginger juice into it quickly and stir, and finally let it stand until it solidifies. The milk solidified slightly, and a spoonful of soup on top of it could not fall but trembled dangerously. Take a bite, it is smooth and sweet, with the unique taste of old ginger juice. This dish is Brother Han'er's favorite, because there is old ginger juice in it, and Feng Shi does not allow him to eat it often.
When the crowd saw him like this, they laughed louder and louder. But he ran to the old lady like a coquette, buried his head in the old lady's arms, and showed a round fat ass and swayed left and right.
Seeing his funny appearance, everyone burst into laughter again. The old lady was full of smiles, her eyes were kind, she gently stroked Brother Han'er's head with her hand, and changed her way to make her grandmother happy, you are your grandmother's pistachio!
Aunt Li saw it and said that Brother Han was smart, clever and filial, and he would definitely have a great future in the future. The old lady and the Feng family both liked to hear such words, and praised Brother Yu again, this time Aunt Li smiled from ear to ear.
Youyi saw that they flattered each other, but she sighed secretly in her heart. According to the trajectory of his previous life, if nothing else, Brother Yu will become a tribute in the second class of high school in the big exam. After that, her father helped mediate, and Brother Yu became the magistrate of the county, steadily rising step by step. Brother Yu's future is bright, but Brother Han ...... Youyi couldn't help but shake his head in his heart, according to the old lady and the Feng family, he was afraid that he would be like the previous life, and he would not be able to go to the stage in this life.
After talking about her son, the old lady brought the topic to the girls again, as if she was about to finish the conversation, right?
Well. Aunt Leigh looked at the girl sitting below talking to the girls, and there was more content in her eyes. According to Dayu's customs, girls will be married as soon as they turn fifteen, and it is time to get married. Because Master Li died of a sudden illness three years ago, as a daughter, he naturally had to keep filial piety for three years, so there has been no matchmaker coming to the door. Until now, it seems that he has not been raptured.
When she was in Cangzhou before, Aunt Li was also anxious, for fear of delaying Wanruo's lifelong event. But now, she was a little happy in her heart. How big is Cangzhou? Picking up random young talents may not necessarily be satisfying. The capital is different, this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, from the rich to the aristocratic families, only the better young people are not the best.
If it had been a month ago, Aunt Li wouldn't have dared to think like this, no matter how good the young people in the capital were, it had nothing to do with her. But now it's different, Master Li was canonized by the emperor, and he was given a ten-character title at once. Soon, Brother Yu is going to take the big exam again, and with his talent, high school is just around the corner. The Li family is rising, and the standard for the girl to find her mother-in-law will naturally rise.
Aunt Li secretly calculated in her heart, and felt that with her appearance, with the current prestige of the Li family, it was not too much to find a second-rate family to be her in-laws. It's just that she is not familiar with the upper circles of the capital, so she has to count on the Feng family.
What if you have an in-law? The old lady asked softly, so that the children should not hear it.
Aunt Li smiled and shook her head, I don't know what is the practice in the capital, in Cangzhou, girls only come to the door after twelve or thirteen. However, our lord passed away three years ago, and he was filial piety, so the matter was put on hold. Now the three-year filial piety period has arrived, but our girls have been born in the capital again. I'm not familiar with life here, so I'm a little worried. The good years of the girl's family are only a few years, and it would be my sin to delay it.
It is my sin to say this, and I have to write to you to come. Feng knew that his sister didn't blame herself, and she also knew the meaning behind her words, okay, since it's my fault, let me do it! Her smiling call was like the past.
It was as if she was sitting down, and when she saw several elders looking at her in turn, she felt the strangeness in her eyes, and she had a premonition in her heart that made her shy. Seeing the Feng family waving towards him and hurrying over, all the sisters watched.
Feng Shi took her hand, looked at her with a smile, and looked up and down for a while before saying meaningfully: Good looks, dignified and virtuous, don't have to be bad with those young ladies of the family! In the future, I will have the opportunity to take your aunt to take you around and get to know those noble ladies in the capital.
Aunt Leigh's eyes lit up when she heard this, as if her cheeks were blushing with shame. Wan Rou understood what she heard, and she had more and more expectations in her heart. If my aunt can take my sister out, she will naturally take her out. She is only twelve this year, and she still has three years to plan slowly, so she has an advantage over her sister no matter how she thinks about it.
Youyi caught a glimpse of her expression, and she knew what was going on in her heart very lightly. It seems that this cousin's paranoia is not light, and she dreams of being the head of the family every day. Youyi seemed to see herself in the previous life, and felt more sympathy and pity for Wanrou.
