"Brother Dongzi, this is the zongzi made at home this morning, you and Brother Daming have cooked it and eaten it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info "Wang Jin handed a burden to Dongzi.

"Really? I didn't expect you to make a special trip to send this over, Miss, how embarrassed we are. Dongzi scratched his head and smiled, "But the food made by Miss is not delicious, and I really have some worries about it for so long, so I will be cheeky and accept it!" ”

Wang Jin pursed his lips and smiled: "Brother Dongzi is not polite to me, but he treats me as his own!" As she spoke, she rolled her eyes and said, "Why does it seem that Brother Dongzi is watching the store alone today?" Isn't Meng Dong's family going out again? ”

"Hey, in the morning, I took Brother Da Ming to escort their family to see the dragon boat, let me stay to see the store, and I don't want to think about who will come to buy tea at this moment?" Dongzi's tone was very dissatisfied with being left alone.

"Oh? The dragon boat race has also been over for a while, why haven't they come back yet? Wang Jin asked again.

"They said there was a banquet in the evening, so I guess they were going to go directly." As he was talking, Dongzi suddenly glanced at several familiar figures, and said to Wang Jin, "As soon as this was said about them, the people came back, and I don't know what happened." ”

Hearing this, Wang Jin couldn't help but turn around and look out of the door, and sure enough, he saw Meng An's family getting off the sedan chair, followed by Brother Da Ming, walking towards the shop. She turned her mind a few times, and then greeted her with a smile: "Uncle Meng and Aunt Meng, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" Sister Pandi Zhaodi, you have all grown taller and more beautiful; Brother Da Ming, Brother Yongfa, Uncle Fu, are you all okay? She greeted her warmly, and the reactions of the group of people on the other side were also different.

Meng An, who had two mustaches and squinted eyes, was startled at first when he saw Wang Jin, his eyes were slightly weak, and he quickly returned to normal, and greeted with a smile: "Why did my niece have time to come to the city today, but she came to see the dragon boat race?" He looked left and right again, "Why are you alone?" Where's your mother? ”

Wang Jin frowned almost invisibly, and said with a smile: "Today is just to join in the fun, my mother took my younger brothers and sisters back first, I thought I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I came to visit." ”

Meng An nodded, Aunt Meng on the side looked Wang Jian up and down for a while, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said: "Niece Jin is really a good talent, she can still dress like a young lady when she goes to that rural place, tsk, look at this figure, look at the fine skin and tender meat on her hands, my sister-in-law is really good at raising a daughter, I don't know many times better than the two unsuccessful ones in my family, I only know embroidery needle and thread, and nothing else is promising!" When the Meng family sisters on the side heard their mother-in-law say this, the smile on their faces faded, and they looked at Wang Jin's eyes with a faint resentment.

Wang Jin's hand was still grabbed by Aunt Meng, although the diaphragm in her heart was not easy to show. Listening to her words, there was a needle in it, and it was even more provocative, so Yingying smiled and said: "My aunt has won the prize." If you want me to say that the most important thing for a girl's family is to be virtuous, like two sisters, which one's needlework is not one in a hundred, and her temperament is good, and her appearance is also outstanding, and she is not worse than everyone else! Sure enough, as soon as the Meng sisters heard this, their eyes became warmer when they looked at Wang Jin, and even Aunt Meng was a little proud when she heard it. The older Pan Di pulled her sister to Wang Jin's side, pulled her sleeves, pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Jin'er, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's go inside and talk together!" As he spoke, he looked at his mother with hope in his eyes.

Aunt Meng has been in a good mood today, and now that things are wrong, she doesn't like Wang Jin anymore, so she nodded: "Okay, you take Jin'er to the house to sit, remember to change into new clothes, and we will go to the banquet in a while!" Speaking of going to the banquet, her eyebrows were full of joy, and she glanced at Wang Jin, and then pulled Meng An back to the backyard.

After Wang Jin and Brother Da Ming exchanged pleasantries, they followed Pan Di to their room.

Pan Di and Zhao Di lived in a two-room room, they enthusiastically made tea for Wang Jin, took out the recently made needlework objects to show her, and told some interesting stories about today's dragon boat race, chattering, the three of them were also very lively. Wang Jin was talking to them and sighed in her heart. Although Aunt Meng doesn't like herself and doesn't want her two daughters to get too close to her, the three of them have grown up together since childhood, and Wang Jian has always taken care of them, even if there will be some mustard in their hearts because of Aunt Meng's words, they always retain their past feelings and are still close to themselves.

"Sister Jin'er, do you think I look good in this?" Pan Di took out a begonia red dress from the suitcase, unfolded it and handed it to Wang Jin.

"Well, it's good, Pandi is as tall as me now, and she must be very slim when she wears this." Wang Jin showed Zhao Di the clothes she was going to change again, and saw that they all looked solemn, so she couldn't help but ask curiously: "What kind of banquet is this today, I see you dressed up so carefully, but what big people do you want to meet?" ”

Pan Di straightened out the clothes she had just changed into and sat down in front of the mirror, and Wang Jian naturally stepped forward to comb her hair again. Pan Di squinted, seemed to be very comfortable, and replied briskly: "I heard that my father said that the Cao Gang specially set up a banquet in the cyclamen, and invited a lot of rich businessmen and celebrities!" ”

Wang Jin's hands paused, and asked with a smile: "Isn't this kind of banquet just the head of the house, why do you want to dress up as flowers and go over, isn't this still a blind date banquet?" ”

Pan Di's face was slightly red, and Zhao Di on the side replied crisply: "Mother said that Mrs. Zhu wanted to see her son-in-law for Sister Mingzhu, so she asked us to accompany her!" ”

"Mrs. Zhu is the wife of the helmsman of the Cao Gang, and Sister Mingzhu is their eldest daughter." Pan Di was afraid that Wang Jian wouldn't know, so she immediately explained, "Many of these children of the right age invited today will go to the banquet, and Mrs. Zhu wants to pick a wishful husband for Sister Mingzhu among these people, we are just going to be a foil." Her voice lowered unconsciously, but a faint flush appeared on her face. Wang Jin, who was behind him, noticed it, and immediately understood that I was afraid that Aunt Meng also had this thought, and Pandi must have been told again and again. She looked at Pan Di's bright dress, sighed secretly in her heart, put down the comb, and said softly: "Comb it." ”

Pan Di turned her head to look in the mirror, and sighed to Wang Jin: "Obviously comb the same hair, why is my sister's comb always better than mine?" ”

"Just practice more, but practice makes perfect. Zhao Di, come here! Wang Jin beckoned Zhao Di, who was waiting on the side, to come over and comb her hair, and asked curiously, "By the way, isn't Miss Pearl very beautiful?" How old is this year? ”

Pan Di hesitated and replied: "Sister Mingzhu, I have only seen it once or twice, last year, she was very slender and tall, she should be considered beautiful." ”

"But Sister Mingzhu looks dark, and her face is big, so she doesn't look beautiful." Zhao Di muttered quietly.

Wang Jin laughed secretly when she heard this, she naturally knew what Mingzhu looked like, and she knew that Mingzhu was very sensitive to her appearance, and she was even more hostile to beautiful girls. I have to remind Pandi.

"Regardless of whether this Miss Pearl is beautiful or not, today is a special meeting banquet for her by Mrs. Zhu, she will definitely dress up well, so that she can show it in a crowd of girls, if anyone is better looking than her, Mrs. Zhu will definitely be unhappy." You're right, Pandi? She smiled and looked at Pan Di and said.

Pan Di is also a smart girl, and she immediately understood Wang Jin's words. She lowered her head, pulled her veil, and suddenly raised her head and said to Wang Jin: "Sister Jin'er, I'll go to my mother's place, and I'll come over in a while." With that, he hurried out of the room.

Wang Jin's heart let go slightly, but when she thought of Aunt Meng's temperament, she couldn't help but worry a little about whether Pandi could convince her.

After a while, Pandi came back, followed by Aunt Meng, who was slightly impatient.

As soon as she entered the door, she took Wang Jin's hand, and first said: "Thanks to Jin's niece, she was careful and reminded Pandi, otherwise maybe we would really offend people." Then he said with a distressed face: "You say, what are we going to wear now, we are all going to big families, and we can't see people if we are dressed ordinarily." She stared at Wang Hibiscus with good eyes, and she was sure to come up with an idea.

Wang Jin smiled and said: "Actually, it's not difficult, I just hope that Didi's begonia red is really gorgeous, it's too eye-catching, it's better to choose some expensive materials, and the color is lighter." Pan Di has a good foundation, even if she wears plain clothes, she doesn't make any difference. ”

Aunt Meng nodded again and again after hearing this, let go of Wang Jin's hand and began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find clothes, and finally searched for a spring shirt with green flowers on a white background made in Shuzhou. Wang Jin couldn't help but smack her tongue secretly, Aunt Meng was really willing to spend money on these two daughters, and she put on a green pleated skirt for Pandi. is dressed like this, although it is plain and pure, it is fresh and refined, and it is more temperamental with Pandi's fair face. Aunt Meng was very satisfied, and after saying a few words, she was about to go out to the banquet, but Pan Di pulled her and seemed to have something to say.

"Mother, can you let Sister Jin go with you?" Pan Di whispered.

Aunt Meng was about to refuse immediately when she heard this, and then thought about it, Wang Jian is indeed smarter than ordinary people, and with her following Pandi, she can also have a foil when she encounters things. It's just that Wang Jian has been more prominent than her own daughter since she was a child, and with her here, what if she compares Pandi to her. Just when he hesitated, he heard Wang Jian say: "If Pandi wants me to go, then I will pretend to be your little maid, and it will be more convenient to talk to people." ”

As soon as Pan Di was about to speak, Aunt Meng couldn't wait to say: "This idea is good, but I have wronged my niece Jin, and I will thank you again when I go back." ”

So Wang Jin picked out a set of ordinary cotton dresses for Pandi, wrapped her clothes, and said to Aunt Meng: "I made an appointment with the people in the village to go back later, since I want to accompany Pandi, I want to talk to people first." ”

"You go, the banquet is over, and my aunt will hire a car to send you back!" Aunt Meng immediately responded.

Wang Jian smiled, got out of the shop, entered an alley, and said to the coachman: "I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for so long, but I won't be able to go back for a while, please send the things in the car back to my house first, and bring me a message by the way, saying that there is an old man who has left dinner, if I can go home in time, I will rest in the city in time, let them not worry." ”

The coachman was hired by Qin Ziming, and because he had already given enough silver, he didn't feel troublesome, so he readily agreed, and after asking for the address, he waved his horsewhip and left.

About a quarter of an hour later, Wang Jin followed Meng An and his family in a carriage to the cyclamen in the center of the city.
