Chapter 69: Confession Tea
After He Heng went out, Yuehua was at home, wandering here, looking there, she had no home since she was a child, she had a home now, she couldn't see enough, she heard the door ringing, went to open the door, Chen Po stood outside: "It turns out that you are at home, I knocked for a while." β
Yuehua was in the inner room, and the voice outside couldn't be heard clearly, so it would be difficult to come together: "I didn't hear it, don't be surprised." β
"Yesterday was the day you got married, and the military students began to have a fever in the afternoon, I took my daughter-in-law to find Dr. Tang, but I didn't come, and I came to see you today."
Yuehua was quite moved in her heart, and Chen Po always remembered her: "I'm really sorry to bother you to worry, you come in and sit, I'll make a pot of tea for you." β
"There's no hurry to drink tea, you can do it anytime, there's something I want to tell you."
Yuehua hurriedly welcomed her in and asked what was wrong.
Chen Po sat down and took out a handkerchief bag from her underwear pocket: "This is what Madame entrusted me to you." β
The lady in Mrs. Chen's mouth is naturally Mrs. Ning, and Mrs. Chen spread out the handkerchief, and there is a pair of gold earrings inside, but it is not big.
"This ......"
Chen Po smiled: "You were so angry that day that you left like something, Mrs. called Brother Yuan to ask carefully, there was a misunderstanding in this matter, Mrs. felt that she had misunderstood you, I was embarrassed, and I was specially entrusted to come." β
"Forehead ......"
Chen Po smiled: "You also know Madame's temperament, she is a high-eyed person, do you remember the pair of silver arms she gave you?" At that time, she liked you, but your status was too low, the Ning family would definitely not agree, and to be honest, you would not agree to let you be a concubine for Brother Yuan, so the matter was put aside. Later, the Ning family made the decision to say goodbye to Brother Yuan'er, Brother Yuan'er disagreed, Mrs. Ning thought of you again, so she removed you from the list of matches, she told me that she really likes you, and she doesn't care about your background, she would rather carry you in to be a daughter-in-law, and I also asked Brother Yuan'er what he meant, he naturally had nothing to say, I didn't expect you to be here...... Madame doesn't know about the girl in Yuemei, and if she knew, she wouldn't ...... She only stepped on two boats with your feet, and she didn't speak well that day. As soon as she heard you, she called Brother Yuan'er over and asked clearly, only to know that it wasn't yours. β
In the final analysis, I am still a head shorter here, people think that my son can take a fancy to you, and it is your blessing that I can take a fancy to you, and I decide without asking you what you mean, in the end, if you don't appreciate it, you don't know how to lift, and you step on two boats.
You made it clear to her, she felt that she was wrong, she felt embarrassed at this time, she didn't come by herself, asked someone to bring a gift, and counted on Yuehua to take the initiative to ease the relationship.
Yuehua was really angry that day, but Mrs. Ning said two good words to herself, Yuehua would definitely not take it to heart, and she would do this at this time......
YUEHUA IS NOT A PERSON WHO DRILLS THE HORNS, BUT THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR IS REALLY DISGUSTING, YUEHUA'S LOW STATUS DOES NOT MEAN THAT PEOPLE ARE UNDER -JIAN, AND THEY CAN BE ACCOMMODATING WHEN THEY ENCOUNTER MAJOR EVENTS, IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY HAVE TO BE SHORT OF OTHERS ALL THE TIME, AND IT IS FUNNY TO SEE THIS PAIR OF EARRINGS AT THIS TIME: "I DIDN'T CARE, SHE SAID BY HERSELF, THE TWO OF THEM RIPPED THE WORDS APART, THIS EARRING SAID THAT THE WEDDING GIFT WAS TOO VALUABLE, I DIDN'T DARE TO ACCEPT IT, IF YOU COME AND GO IN THE FUTURE, IT'S ALSO A TROUBLE TO RETURN THE GIFT, SAYING THAT IT'S AN APOLOGY, I DIDN'T BLAME HER IN THE FIRST PLACE." , even more difficult to take. β
Chen Po looked embarrassed when she heard this: "You are an understanding person, some things have to be understood in 1510, and some people have to deal with each other, and they have to be embarrassed in the past, and if you are too particular, it will hurt your feelings."
Not to mention anything else, Madame values you from the bottom of her heart. Everyone is in the army, and there are many opportunities to go back and forth, so why bother to understand the hurt feelings. β
Chen Po is a shrewd and ancient old man, her words are reasonable in terms of human feelings, but Yuehua feels that it is not entirely right, this time she will take the initiative to reconcile and will always be short of others.
"I won't accept the pendant, I'll go to my wife's place another day to sit down, and the things inside will be ripped off."
"It's better to hit the day than to choose a day! You are a young child, and your man probably doesn't know, today is the first day that the new daughter-in-law enters the door, and she has to cook and serve tea to her in-laws, and you don't have your in-laws to save it.
We also have a custom in the south, the new daughter-in-law has to go to the neighbor's house to recognize the door tea the next day after entering the door, which is considered to be a recognition between neighbors, and it will be good to come and go in the future.
I see that you are also an unambiguous person, and you have a big idea, and you are not happy to let you go to Mrs. Ning.
Mrs. Ning is old enough to be your elder, and people are not good at whispering to you, so you should let it go, and it is right to take the initiative to come to the door, so it is better to go to Mrs. Ning's house by recognizing the reason for tea.
I did what Mrs. asked me to do, and you also read me, don't embarrass me, if you don't accept it, I'm not good at talking in front of Mrs.! Therefore, you can take the earrings for the time being, and it is your own business whether you want to keep them or return them for a while, and it has nothing to do with my wife, even if my wife does what Mrs. Ning explained. β
"I haven't heard of this, I don't know what to prepare, is it too late for this time?" Mrs. Chen is also thoughtful, and she is not too embarrassed to let an old man beg for herself like this, besides, people have already said this, and she is not interesting if she doesn't go down the stairs at this time.
"It's nothing on the side, boil a pot of water and carry it, prepare a tea tray, and a cup, that is, the tea is particular, it must be red dates and sesame sugar tea, you don't have anything to do when you enter the door, if you don't have these things, just look for me, just return them to me."
Yuehua looked at the weather in the middle of the morning, and she was afraid that it would be noon when she went to buy it herself, and this tea would not be called Zhimen tea.
"Then thank you very much, I borrowed your envoy, and I will return it to you."
"You're welcome."
Chen Po went back to fetch things for Yuehua, and Yuehua went in to boil water.
Chen Po took a jar of sesame seeds, a bag of red dates, a bottle of sugar, a pair of scissors, and a piece of rag cloth in her hand.
Yuehua pointed to the cloth: "What are you doing with this rag?" β
Chen Po smiled and handed the scissors to Yuehua: "This is the cloth wrapped behind the buttocks in winter when the soldiers wear open crotch pants, anti-freezing, this will be useless, I will take it, you will have to walk this street again in a while, take this cloth and wrap the copper hanger, the water will not be cold."
"It's hard for you to be careful, I don't know."
"I'm from here, I don't know how much new daughter-in-law's confession tea I have drunk, you are a new daughter-in-law and I don't know."
Chen Po took a cloth to wrap the copper hanger, and had to go to Mrs. Ning first, Yuehua thought for a while: "It's not that I mean to be lazy, where to go first at this time, a big journey back and forth, I'm just afraid that there will be Mrs. Ning to say almost, I'm only afraid that it's noon when I come back, and it doesn't look like someone else's house at noon, so let's go all over the neighbors first." β
Chen Po originally thought that she would just go on to recognize the door of the tea and do what Mrs. Ning had explained, but Yuehua wanted to go to the neighborhood for a walk, Yuehua is now also a lady of a house, Chen Po is not good not to help Mrs. Ning, people say that the prime minister's doorkeepers are higher than ordinary people, and now Yuehua's status has risen, and Chen Po is not good not to give her face, nor insist, anyway, it is only a matter of a few feet.
The two of them brewed the tea at the door, knocked on the door and entered, it was also a house of a dirt house, the hostess of the house was polite to Yuehua, drank tea and took Yuehua's hand and said something for a while, and finally took out a dozen or so money from the purse and threw it into Yuehua's tea tray, Yuehua was puzzled, Mrs. Cheng smiled, she was very familiar with Chen Po, pointed to Chen Po and scolded with a smile: "You old pious woman, bring her here and don't tell sΓΉ clearly." β
"It's not like you're polite." Turned his head to Yuehua and said, "I'm confused, I didn't tell you clearly, people drink your tea, and they have to return the gift, you have to take this money, if you don't accept it, it's rude." β
The back few are cold and indifferent, there are also enthusiastic, and polite, Yuehua toasted the tea, they will more or less send some money, knock on the door into the last house, this is a child opened the door, the child is very small, but seven or eight years old, dressed in tatters, unkempt, I can't tell if it's a boy or a girl, raise my head, my cheeks are a little swollen, Yuehua grew up in the kidnapper's house, this look knows that it was beaten, the child is very timid, timidly asked: "Who are you looking for?"
