The weather is getting colder and colder, Chen Xueru thinks that the elderly are afraid of the cold, and plans to wipe her grandmother and Han Xingjian's grandmother to protect her forehead and head.

The old lady's forehead should also be coarse, and her own grandmother said that no matter how she cut and sewed, Mrs. Li was only happy. And the grandmother of the Han family can't be so careless, things should be first-class and better, and the embedded ones are richer, anyway, Chen Xueru passed the door, and there were two mountains on her head, one of which was this mother-in-law. The mother-in-law has a high status in the Han family, and it seems that she doesn't care about anything, and if she wants to get a firm foothold if she marries in, she has to maintain this mountain well.

Chen Xueru drew the color, cut the appearance, inlaid a circle of cloud brocade brought by Chen Xiucai from the south, made two, nailed a circle of soybean-sized beads to be worn in summer, and a circle of sable hair embedded on the side of the forehead was worn in winter. There is no need to meddle quietly, the needles and needles are all sewn by herself, the needle angles are fine, and the embroidered flowers are also Fulu group flowers.

Sewing for a while, he raised his head and rubbed his sore neck.

If snow is born in cold weather, it may be particularly afraid of cold for this reason, and its hands and feet will be cold when it enters winter. In previous years, when it was cold, there were frostbite on the hands, and the snow was even worse, and when I stretched out my hands, one by one, the red flesh turned over, like a baby's mouth. When the spring opens, the back of the hand itches and can't stand it, and it is soaked with the snow water that has been harvested every day. At that time, the poor family couldn't afford to burn charcoal, and the entire Chen family only bought ten catties of charcoal in winter, and they had to be burned by Mrs. Chen. Then he raised the stove, threw the wood he had picked up from the mountains into the stove, and when he lit the fire, smoke rose up. Choking makes people's throats hurt.

Now that the Chen family has silver in his hand, before winter, Chen Xiucai bought dozens of catties of fine silver charcoal from Xuzhou Mansion, which burns without smoke, and the whole house is like spring. The plum blossoms in the private school hit the flower bones, and Chen Xuejiao's sister-in-law cut a few plum blossoms, and smoked them in the house. Unexpectedly, all of them bloomed, and the red plums were placed in front of the window one by one, and the room was filled with a quiet fragrance.

"Sister. Eat some tangerine, it's sweet. Chen Xuejiao walked in with a plate of tangerines, peeled a petal and handed it to Xueru.

The sweet tangerines bring a breath of freshness, but Xueru feels that the taste is the same as chewing wax.

"It's so hot in the house." Chen Xuejiao picked a pear from the fruit bowl. A bite of honey. The heartfelt coolness came up, just like eating a bowl of cold Tao on a hot day in June, and the whole body was full of comfort.

Chen Xuejiao and Chen Xueru are just the opposite, she is most afraid of heat, covering a thin quilt on a cold night and sweating hot, such a day guards a stove, and after a while, fine sweat will come out on her face, and she has to drink a glass of cold water.

"Sister. Before you were married, you turned your heart. Look, the embroidery you gave your mother-in-law is much richer than your grandmother's. Chen Xuejiao ate a handful of pear juice, picked up the strip of rag next to Xueru and wiped her hands, and was snatched away by Xueru's hand, "This cloth still needs to be sewn, where can you stop it from being ruined." ”

Chen Xuejiao stuck out her tongue and threw the orange peel on the table into the stove, and with a "z-la" sound, a puff of green smoke came out of the stove, and the fragrance of orange peel spread throughout the room.

"I made a new jacket for my grandmother." Chen Xueru's face was red, and she turned sideways, and there was a new royal blue jacket embroidered with Fu Lushou inside.

Chen Xuejiao saw that Xueru was shy, pursed her lips and smiled, opened the small drawer of the makeup box, there were delicate small bottles in it, Chen Xuejiao opened a table and put more than a dozen kinds of creams, and several kinds of cream juices were the same, she picked them up and looked at them for a long time, no matter how she looked at them, they were the same: "This is the frostbite cream that my brother-in-law entrusted my brother to send?" ”

It's not just this year, in previous years, the Han family would send frostbite cream to Xueru, but in the past, Zhou and Bi Tao personally sent it, but this year it was sent by Han Xingjian.

The guy in Qingfengzhuang, washing dishes and vegetables on a cold day, his hands are frozen and the snow is all over the frostbite, this year a new guy brought a frostbite cream from his hometown Yingchuan, saying that the effect is much better than the general frostbite cream. Somehow Han Xingjian found out, he asked a guy to buy it from Yingchuan, and once he bought so many bottles, he couldn't use them up for three or five years.

In front of outsiders, because she didn't get married, Chen Xuejiao called Han Xingjian "brother", and shouted "brother-in-law" in front of Xueru, Chen Xueru heard the word "brother-in-law", her face was pink and red, she turned sideways and ignored her with a needle, Chen Xuejiao climbed her arm and shook her for a while, and then she answered in a low voice.

Immediately frowned, and was caught by Xue Jiao, and after thinking about it, he asked: "Sister, yesterday my brother-in-law came to deliver frostbite cream, why did you hide in the house and not go out?" ”

Xue Ruzi was engaged, and it was normal for children to be shy than ever when they saw Han Xingjian, but why didn't they meet.

Chen Xuejiao thought about it for a while and found a clue, Han Xingjian was standing outside, he didn't drink tea, he didn't eat the fruit, and the Li family spoke to him, obviously absent-minded. Li smiled on his face, thinking that he was full of his own daughters, but he also understood that when Chen Xiucai went to Li's house, she peeked through the crack in the door, isn't it also this stunned look.

pursed his lips and shouted that Xue Ru came out to pour tea, Xue Ru didn't come out for a long time, and only sent Jing Hao out to serve tea, and Li became more and more shy when he was only his own daughter.

Han Xingjian didn't see Xue Ru in the end, and when he left, he looked lonely, and stood in the courtyard for most of the day, one would talk to Qi An to discuss his homework, and the other would pull Qi Ping to teach him to make an abacus.

That night, Xue Ru sighed for a long time. Han Xingjian has been engaged to give Xue Ru something from time to time, or hair oil, or rouge, or gadgets, or fresh food, in the shop, and on the burden of the merchant, all of which are bought for her.

In the past, Chen Xueru saw the things sent by Han Xingjian, although her face was not obvious, but her eyes were filled with joy that could not be hidden.

Yesterday was different, she saw the frostbite cream on the table faint, and she didn't apply it, but it rolled down in the drawer as soon as she threw it away.

Chen Xuejiao sat in front of Chen Xueru and looked at her carefully. Seeing that Xue Ru's eyes were shining, he pulled her: "Sister, do you have something on your mind?" ”

Chen Xueru's hands moved. The Jiangling cloth pressed under her body was exposed, and she asked Chen Xuejiao to pull it out, and then threw it on the bed in her hand: "Whose is this!" ”

It was a man's clothes, looking at the shape that didn't look like Qi An or Qi Ping, it must be Han Xingjian's, she covered her mouth and smiled and bent over, sticking out her tongue. Seeing that Chen Xueru was really ashamed, she went to coax her again and took a pear: "Sister." Please eat pears, dry and hot room, moisten your throat. ”

Gently looked at Xue Ru's eyes: "Sister, you haven't answered my question just now." ”

Chen Xueru pursed her lips. The clothes in his hand fell to the ground. Chen Xuejiao took a closer look, but saw that a good dress lacked a sleeve.

Chen Xuejiao secretly took a breath: "Sister, how is this." ”

The thing was held in my heart, rotten into coptis juice, it was really bitter, I couldn't stand it for so many days, and my big eyes rolled. Tears flowed.

"Sister, what's wrong." Xue Jiao panicked.

"The second aunt went to the Han family to propose marriage...... I don't know what will happen outside...... If only he had known. I should be happy in my heart, the two daughters of the Chen family are in a hurry to marry him," Chen Xueru was anxious, crying and saying.

The words were intermittent, but Xue Jiao understood it, and couldn't help but want to laugh, Xue Ru This is the real ancient girl, if this matter is left in modern times, where is it worth mentioning, but Xue Ru just took it to heart. She was worried, Han Xingjian knew that Erfang was going to give Xue Miao to him, and she was two-hearted.

But seeing Xueru's sad appearance, Chen Xuejiao couldn't laugh, and took her hand to comfort: "Sister, you are too careful, didn't Mrs. Feng pass on the matter of Xue Miao?" What if my brother-in-law knew? What is his situation with you, let's all see it in our eyes, I'm afraid that he doesn't even know whether Xue Miao is round or flat, he is full of sisters in his heart, where can he tolerate others? ”

"Really?" Chen Xueru's face turned red, and she pulled Fang Cai's clothes and sneered, "I'm just worried about ......"

"Sister, you just put your heart in your stomach, if you really have someone else in your heart, you don't have to do it, my brother and I will do it, you see, people heard that frostbite cream is useful, and they bought a big drawer." Chen Xuejiao pointed to the frostbite cream on the table and said with a smile.

When Chen Xueru heard this, her eyes sparkled and she lowered her head, pinched the clothes in her hands and sighed softly: "What can I do about this, I cut off the sleeves of this dress in a fit of anger." ”

Chen Xuejiao's eyes widened, and when she reacted, she almost smiled and bent over. Don't look at my sister who is so honest on weekdays, but I didn't expect that when she also had a strong temperament, she wrung her sleeves when she got angry.

"Sister, you twisted your brother-in-law's sleeve, how can you wear this?" Chen Xuejiao pulled her clothes, covered her chest and smiled.

Chen Xueru pretended to raise her eyebrows, and snorted in her nose: "If he has two hearts, I will cut him!" ”

Saying that, waving the scissors in her hand, Le Xuejiao almost threw herself on the bed.

The two sisters were laughing when they heard Jing Hao come in and say, "Aunt Han is here with Bi Tao." ”

As soon as the words fell, a blue figure flashed in, standing under the red plum blossom prettyly, smiling at Xue Ru and Xue Jiao, but it was not Bi Tao.

Li welcomed Zhou's mother and daughter in, turned around and poured tea, and wondered: "Yesterday I sent a post to the Han family to invite Zhou's mother and daughter to participate in Xueru's birthday, and yesterday I returned a box of tangerines, Xueru's birthday is still a few days, why did I come to the door with my daughter Baba today,"

As soon as Zhou came in, he held Li's hand, and was more enthusiastic than Su Ri: "If there is nothing at home, I will come to see you." ”

Li has been busy with the affairs of the embroidery workshop these days, although the salted duck egg shop has Xue Jiao staring, but she also has to take the time to reconcile the accounts, and her mind is not idle for a moment, always afraid that the accounts are right or wrong, and the people in the shop are full.

She was so busy that she couldn't take a break. Compared with her, the Zhou family is in charge of the affairs of a large family, with a mother-in-law and children, only those who are busier than the Li family, where is the leisure time to see the Li family, and it is still raining today.

Although the two families have passed the eight characters and changed the marriage book, Li's heart can't help jumping, and he remembers the slander of Xueru in the second room

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and the smile on my face stiffened, for fear that Xue Ru and Xingjian's marriage would go wrong.

Li smiled and invited Zhou to the house, the rainy day was cold, the house set up braziers on both sides early, burned warm, set up a bamboo bed against the window, spread a thick mattress on it, set up two cotton cushions of peony flowers, and the two sat next to each other and began to gossip.

With a smile on Zhou's face, he couldn't stop screaming from his in-laws, put on his cloak, looked at the rain outside the window, and played a round by himself: "I wanted to come here for a long time, but I couldn't get out of it, and when I saw that it was raining today, it was easy to steal a little effort, so I came." ”

Chen Xueru poured tea and came out, and said goodbye, Li knew that she was ashamed after she was older, and she was happy that she didn't speak, so she saw Zhou Shi glaring at her, knowing that she had something to say, so he let Chen Xueru go to the house to teach Bi Tao to cut patterns.

Zhou took a sip of tea, chatted with Li for a few words, and secretly looked at Li's face as if he didn't know that Erfang was going to kiss Xue Miao and Xingjian, and he was really relieved. ”

Outside, the wind was overwhelming, and the rain was getting denser and denser.

Zhou gritted his teeth and went straight in: "The second room is going to marry Xingjian, I knew about it yesterday, so I didn't come to talk to you." This matter is whole thing, Xingjian knew about this yesterday, and he didn't eat angry food or sleep anymore, so he was worried that Xue Ru would be disgusted if he knew what it was. ”

Li Shi was stunned, but it was hard to say anything, she was also worried that the Han family would be angry with Xue Ru when she knew about the second room of the Chen family, but she didn't expect that people would not only not be angry, but also worried that Xue Ru and Xingjian had a disagreement.

I didn't want to hide it at the moment, so I didn't want to mix it up and said: "Xue Ru doesn't go out of the door, what does she know, it's not me who praises, my daughter is the most generous, even if she knows, she won't care." ”

"The second room is really, after so many years, no matter how many things I have done, I don't want to mention them." Li's speech also became straightforward, "It's not a secret, I also have a few words in my ears, as long as the two of us don't care, whatever the people next to me say should be a fart." ”

Zhou smiled, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, Xue Ru is the daughter-in-law she personally set, and what is even more rare is that she and her son are interested in each other, she is most afraid of a fork halfway, not to mention anything else, only her own infatuated son may not know what to do.

Seeing that it was getting late, the Li family slapped and wanted to leave Zhou's mother and daughter for dinner: "It's cold this day, it's cold, don't go back, go back after eating here." ”

Zhou hurriedly pushed: "I just cared about idleness, but I forgot an important thing, snow is like a birthday, fifteen years old is a big day, why don't you come out of our restaurant, don't push me, just fulfill my mother-in-law's heart to treat my daughter-in-law." ”

"After waiting for the door, how many hearts can't wait." Lee quipped.

They no longer shirk each other, and Xueru's banquet was made by the Han family. (To be continued......)
