Chapter 214: Narrative

Qiao's voice shouted out everyone in the Li family, and Mrs. Li walked in the forefront with her little feet.

When I saw the girl's dress, my eyes widened.

Li's body is a treasure today, the big red dress with phoenix wisps of gold, the headdress bracelet is the same as a lot, all of them are gold inlaid with gemstones, the golden phoenix crown worn on the bald head is worth a lot of money, the phoenix crown of the phoenix mouth also holds two sparkling pearls, this is not counted, the chest is also wearing a chain made of hollow gold, she is standing at the door with a smile, the whole body is magnificent, and the sun is dazzling on a cloudy day.

Mrs. Li gasped cold air in her stomach, pulled her face and smiled, took her daughter's hand and couldn't say a word, and took it to the courtyard before saying: "Qi An was born in a child, and his son-in-law returned home, so he knew that you were coming today, so he didn't go to see you." ”

Old Man Li held his son-in-law's hand and instructed his daughter-in-law: "Hurry up, there is no hot tea yet." ”

"August Festival is supposed to be for us to see Daddy." Li smiled and shook Mrs. Li's hand back, and the crown on her head tightened her scalp.

Qi An was born in a child, and the Li family asked Li Yuntian to give him a gift that night.

Entered the house, drank tea, Chen Xiucai gave a gift to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, everyone mentioned that Qi An was admitted to the child's life, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed, especially the old man Li was especially happy, his son-in-law is Xiucai, and his grandson is also Xiucai's material, who doesn't envy his daughter's blessing, and his daughter's blessing is his blessing.

The female dependents entered Mrs. Li's room to talk, and Mrs. Li pulled Li to look at it again, and then pulled Xue Jiao, Xue Ru, and Jing Hao to look at it carefully. He smiled and said, "You are dressed like a rich wife, and the mother of Xingjian is wearing a good one." I don't have as much jewelry on my head as you do. ”

Li's dress was picked by Chen Xiucai from Yuhang, Chen Xiucai, who has always been simple and does not pay attention to it, is eager to ask her to put on a set of head and face today, saying that she has suffered a lot with him before, and now that she has money, she will dress up and go back to her parents' house, which also reassures her father. Li didn't follow, one is that she is always in a green shirt and a green coat is embarrassed to wear such a gorgeous and grand one, and the other is to wear such clothes to go out to attract people's eyes, and I don't know what to say outside. Therefore, only three of the six clothes I bought were selected, and these three also made the big girl and the little daughter-in-law in the town stare at her, and they almost hit the corner of the wall as they walked back and forth.

"This garment is not well dressed. You can't cook alive, you can't cook. Li said embarrassedly. He touched the bracelet on his hand, and when he took it off, he was about to put it on Mrs. Li's wrist.

"What are you doing, I don't want it, I'm old enough to wear this bracelet to go out? I put away all the jewelry I gave me last time, and we are an old woman dressed up so pretty and not afraid of jokes. Mrs. Li retracted her hand, took off the bracelet and put it on Li's hand.

"Sister, this is a painful mother." Joe joked.

Mrs. Li complained about the fancy jewelry that Chen Xiucai handed her back last time, but now her daughter is back to her parents' house. She still brought it, and even the royal blue clothes she was wearing were cut by the Li family.

Mrs. Li and several daughters-in-law touched Li's clothes and jewelry, and their mouths were slurking. A few of them really envy their sister-in-law, and they are not jealous in their hearts, but they are happy for the Li family, this sister-in-law has been living a hard life for more than ten years, and now she is finally living a good life.

"My mother looks good like this." Chen Xuejiao smiled and snuggled up to Mrs. Li.

"Good-looking, good-looking." Mrs. Li kept boasting that her daughter was handsome when she was a child, and in the years when her mother-in-law was grinding, the whole person lost her spirit, and now she is dressed neatly, and the whole person has the water and energy of her youth.

Mrs. Li hugged Xuejiao, and looked at Xueru and Qi Ping carefully, and saw that several grandchildren were new clothes and shoes, and the materials used were all unseen in the local area, but I was afraid that the son-in-law was also buying it outside, and praised the son-in-law for being careful.

Li Chanchan sat on the chair, and saw Xue Jiao, Xue Ru, and Jing Hao's ears and eyes all pierced with a dripping gold string, dripping down and shining, and saw that Xue Jiao was wearing a garnet red satin eight Hunan skirts, and the flowers on the top were piled up at the corners of the skirt one by one, and the flowers seemed to be flying in the wind, and she stretched out her hand and touched the flowers on the skirt and praised: "What a beautiful skirt." ”

Xue Jiao smiled and said, "Dad also bought you one, I don't know if you are dressed appropriately." Saying that, he pointed to the baggage, Li turned around and took it out, her skirt shook, and the room was full of brilliance, and Li Chanchan's mother Wen smiled on the spot.

Li Chanchan happily ran to the room to change into new clothes.

After everyone talked for a while, the Li family took out the gifts for each family. The three sisters-in-law are all three satin horses made in Suzhou, two hairpins, a pair of bracelets, and the three brothers are also three satin, three cigarette pouches inlaid with gold and jade, and there are a lot of children's clothes, shoes and socks.

When the forehead wipe for Mrs. Li was taken out, her eyes turned red on the spot, and she couldn't stop praising her son-in-law: "In the end, it is the son-in-law personally chosen by your father, and you haven't forgotten my bad old woman when you are developed...... Your father didn't see the wrong person......" and said angrily, "I don't dare to go out with such a good forehead wipe on my head, what if I am remembered by the thief." ”

Qiao's followed: "Mother is afraid of thieves, I'm not afraid, why don't you wear it for me, such a good forehead wipe is worth it even if the thief is worried about it." ”

Everyone laughed at what he said.

Outside, Mr. Li smoked a cigarette pouch and took his three sons to sit opposite his son-in-law in the hall, he was naturally happy, but his face was not revealed, and he sat next to his son-in-law and his son-in-law, using some hot tea to talk about the customs and customs of Suzhou, Hangzhou and Shu.

After a while, the stone carried a plate of fruit outside for a while, he learned the rule of the Xu family, not to enter the inner courtyard of the female family, but since he hit the Chen family, everyone sat up together, but there was no such rule, but he did not dare to go in recklessly, standing outside and shouting: "Madam, I will send some fruit to the old lady and my uncle's wife." ”

"Come in." Li beckoned, and the stone poked his head into the room and saw that the ladies in the room did not dare to go in, but Qi Ping came out and brought the fruit in.

Just now, everyone was only happy, and did not pay attention to the stones, and now they were shocked by his wife.

"This was brought by his father from Yuhang, and he left it with his hand." Li peeled a tangerine for his mother, dipped it in honey, took a handkerchief from Xueru's hand and wiped his hands.

Mrs. Li and Qiao Shi glanced at each other, and sighed in their hearts: "Good girl, now you are not a rich family, and there are people waiting for you when you go out." ”

The Li family told the Li family about the stone search for relatives, and Li Yuntian often ran outside, and it was cheap to walk the streets and alleys to inquire.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh once, Mrs. Li hugged Qi Ping and said: "Poor one, I see that he is almost the same age, I don't know if his father and mother can be found, I see that he is a clever person, now your family lives, although it is the reputation of a subordinate, but you are rich, but don't learn from those people who can be focused on being subordinate." ”

Li said with a smile: "I know this, our family is originally a township family, where to put such a big score." ”

Qi Ping put his arm around Mrs. Li's neck, glued the cloud-legged mooncake from the table, broke a small piece and stuffed it into her grandmother's mouth, dropped a hand of snowflake sugar powder, and kept saying, "...... This is a single door for grandma to buy, grandma taste the fragrance is not fragrant. ”

This cloud-legged mooncake is fragrant and soft, and Mrs. Li likes to eat sweet and rotten food when she is old, and this mooncake just has her appetite. Cloud leg moon cakes because it is the material and recipe from Yunnan, so the price is very expensive, Xiangfu Lou is only in the August Festival every year, and the amount is very small, all the rich people in the town buy a few pieces to try it, although the Li family is well-off, but have never bought such an expensive moon cake.

Mrs. Li ate a bite of moon cakes and smiled without seeing her teeth, hugged Qi Ping and kissed her, the matter of the stone suddenly touched her, Qi Ping was beaten last time, and she was dangling in the town for most of the day, if she hadn't met Xu, his little family might have been taken away by a kidnapper, and there would be no place to cry when he cried.

"The son-in-law's family is here, do you want to go to the house?" As soon as Mrs. Li mentioned that the Chen family was in the room, she clapped her hands and scolded.

"What can you think about? I should give a don't fall, anyway, what we do in the old lady's heart is not good, as long as the big face can get by, since the child's father came back, we have not officially been to the room, although a yard to live, a little to go to the room tomorrow with a courtesy. Li said.

"Your stepmother-in-law's heart is really poisonous, Qi Ping was lost last time, she had to make a ghost in the middle, you see that your stones can be abducted at the door of the house, last time if Qi Ping was involved in this matter, how can you let me live." When Mrs. Li mentioned that incident, she scolded Mrs. Li all the way to Wen Yan, and she was still angry, and was stopped by Li: "Mother, there is a bag of silver here, which was given to you by his father." ”

The silver was on Chen Xuejiao's side, and when she heard what Li said, Xuejiao had already taken out a red envelope and handed it to Mrs. Li. It was difficult to open it in front of her daughter and grandson, and she pinched it that there were always one or twenty taels of silver, she didn't care about the silver, what she cared about was her son-in-law's heart.

"It's thirty taels of silver." Li said with a smile in front of his three sisters-in-law, "Everyone knows what our family used to look like, thanks to the fact that several sisters-in-law usually take care of them, and the child's father also said that there is no one who knows etiquette better than my three sisters-in-law." ”

Xue Jiao listened to Li's words and nodded secretly.

No matter how polite and sensible the sister-in-law is, which family wants the mother-in-law to use the family's things to subsidize the marriage of the daughter. Since Xuejiao came to the Chen family, in the past year, the Li family has subsidized them for more than a dozen taels of silver, five taels when they split up, five taels when they bought land, and Chen Xiucai also added some when he went out to run the boat, not to mention the help when the farm was busy with the autumn harvest.

The Li family is not divided now, so the Li family gave the silver to Mrs. Li.

The three sisters-in-law said that Chen Xiucai was too polite, but his face was full of joy, now the Li family's expenses are more than in the past, Da Zhuang gave birth to a son this year, and he is going to say goodbye in the New Year, which one does not want silver, although the Li family is not short of small money, but it is not easy to take out twelve taels of silver at once.

The three sisters-in-law talked with them for a while, and then got up and went to the stove to work for lunch.

Mrs. Li sent Xue Jiao, Xue Ru, Jing Hao, and Qi Ping out, and asked Li Chanchan to take them to the orchard behind to pick fruits, and then took her daughter's hand and whispered.

"That, is your son-in-law affectionate when he comes to the house?" (To be continued......)
