Chapter 20: Piercing Fabric
After hearing this, Lin Su'e couldn't help but glance at him, "You can do anything at home, you still have to pay attention outside, the child has to save face when he is older, you can't let the child lose face as a father." ”
Gu Huaien chewed the vegetables in his mouth, and replied vaguely, I know, I know.
Huzi saw his father shook his head helplessly, he should learn more from the little uncle in the future, although the little uncle looked cold, but Huzi knew that the little uncle actually loved him very much, and he was very patient with his teaching, his homework was often praised by the master from the little uncle, and the little uncle was simply his idol!
Lin Su'e sandwiched a piece of pork belly for her son and asked: "Huaisheng, today, Mrs. Li from the next village came to tell you that she was coming, are you interested in it, I heard that the other party's family is also a chartered father, which is a good match for our family, and her daughter is literate, and she is also small and exquisite, gentle and gentle." ”
Several matchmakers have also mentioned it before, but the woman's level of civility is not good, and there are even illiterate children, Lin Su'e directly refused.
Even if their family is in the middle of the road, Na Huaisheng is also a talent, and the sister-in-law can't be so wronged by the little brother-in-law.
When Gu Huaien heard this, he also became energetic: "Daughter-in-law, have you seen anyone?" Don't be a matchmaker exaggerating. ”
Anyway, the marriage is about to be withdrawn, so there is no need to always refuse the matchmaker, since their family moved to this Gujia Village, the matchmaker is afraid that they will break through the threshold of their family, and they all say that there are women in a family, and when they come to him, they will be replaced by a family with a man in a hundred families.
The girls in these ten miles and eight villages want to marry Huaisheng, they are nothing in the city, but they are considered big families in the village, living in blue brick houses, eating rice and roasting meat, and do not need to go to the field to farm, which is beyond the reach of many villagers.
Moreover, Gu Huaisheng is full of poetry and books, talented, and his appearance is one in a million, and he can't pick out anyone better than him in this radius.
Lin Su'e said: "Yes, I saw it once when I was shopping in the town before, my appearance is exquisite, and I have a virtuous temperament, which is a good match." ”
"Cut, that sister has a small nose and small eyes, she is not atmospheric at all, where is she worthy of a little uncle." Huzi on the side said dissatisfiedly.
The last time I went to the town to buy something, Huzi also followed, that sister is shy, only talking, not dignified at all, how to be worthy of the proud temperament of her little uncle.
Hearing this, Lin knocked on his son's head, "What do the children know?" Where are the small noses and small eyes, they are obviously small and exquisite. ”
Huzi couldn't argue, and he didn't bother to argue, he just shook his head and stuck out his tongue at the little uncle, indicating that the little uncle's words were not credible.
Gu Huaisheng smiled, put down his chopsticks, and said, "Sister-in-law, the Tang family's marriage contract has not been resolved, so there is no hurry." ”
"The Tang family? Engagement? ”
Lin Su'e was stunned for a moment before she reacted, she had mentioned to her about the marriage contract, and she had hoped that she might be able to soar one day, but after so many years, there was no news, and she had forgotten it.
"The marriage contract has not been accurate for so many years, it is estimated that it is not counted, and you can't spend it!" Lin asked worriedly, "Then when will you settle the marriage contract?" ”
"Soon, just these two days, when the time comes, I will go to the door to return him, and I can show Huaisheng another woman in the future." Gu Huaien said.
Lin also nodded when she heard this, it is better to draw a clear line as soon as possible, although she loves money, but they can't afford this kind of high-ranking family, and the Tang family has not heard from her for so many years, maybe she will regret it long ago and be afraid of carrying a scolding list waiting for them to come to the door to retreat.

Tang House.
Tang Yanning was sitting at the table embroidering the pattern of the wedding dress, Shuang'er came in from outside with a few batches of cloth and said happily: "Miss, Miss, the moon is silver, this month we have five taels of silver, five taels of silver," After speaking, he stretched out a slap and gestured back and forth, "In the past, it was only two taels of silver per month, but this time it has risen by three taels!" ”
"It's only five taels, look at your pleasure."
Shuang'er was still very excited after hearing this, "Miss may get married when she will get married, or you have to save a little dowry money quickly, these few taels of silver are not much in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but they are a lot of expenses in the countryside!" "Miss will marry in the countryside in the future, and it will be very hard to live, but you can still save a little.
Five taels of silver in the countryside is already their expenses for a year, which is indeed a lot, but in this dignified prime minister's mansion, it can only be regarded as a drizzle.
Tang Yanqing is ten taels a month, and Tang Yanyu is eight taels a month, looking at their dress, you know that those two months of silver alone are not enough for them to buy a piece of jewelry. My own mother doesn't know how much I have subsidized. Where is it like her, she really just survives on the monthly silver every month, without a little extra income, and her life is extremely tight.
Tang Yanning sighed and said: "Five taels of silver is a lot in the countryside, but it is really nothing in the Prime Minister's Mansion, if we want to be rich, we still have to rely on ourselves." ”
"On your own? Miss, you also know our status in the house, without the help of my brother and father's family, how easy is it to make money on our own? ”
"Don't worry, someone will naturally send money to the door when the time comes."
Looking at her own young lady's confident face, Shuang'er leaned closer and lowered her head and asked, "Miss, doesn't you already have a way to make money?" ”
Tang Yanning gave her a mysterious look and smiled, "You'll know when the time comes." ”
Miss didn't say that she must have a clever plan, so Shuang'er stopped asking and asked: "Miss, I heard that my aunt and grandmother are coming back this Mid-Autumn Festival, and the eldest lady sent a few batches of snow forging clothes to each room, and when the time comes, wear them in the Mid-Autumn Festival, look at these horses, do you still like them?" ”
Tang Yanning touched it, the material can be regarded as a good material, much stronger than before, but this color is a bit eye-catching, a big green, a royal blue, and a dark purple, and a pure white, all of which are solid colors without prints.
Is this really for a fourteen-year-old girl? Are you sure it's not for a 50-year-old grandmother? I don't know how to match, so I think the material is good.
If you really wear these colors to cut out the clothes and go out, I'm afraid that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be a big mess.
Tang Yanning shook his head: "Leave the white and green, and lock the red and purple." ”
Shuang'er sighed when she heard this, and asked, "Does the young lady plan to send the cloth to the garment factory to make it, or do she make it herself as usual?" ”
As soon as she saw this color, she knew that it was Tang Yanqing's idea, her appearance could not be suppressed, she could only do her hands and feet on the clothes, the color of the fabric distributed every season was strange and the texture was also poor, in order not to embarrass Tang Yanning could only go into battle to make clothes by herself, so she practiced a pair of good skills, and every time the fabric sent was transformed by her and put on, it was a unique flavor.
"It's better to do it yourself, but it's only ten days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the time is a little rushed, so you may have to stay up late with me at that time."
Shuang'er patted her chest and swore and said, "Don't worry, miss, I will help you make it even if I don't sleep, and you can only tell me what to do when the time comes!" Never let you go into the Mid-Autumn Festival without new clothes. ”
"Okay, don't be poor, hurry up and get the tape measure scissors."
The time was pressing, and the two of them didn't talk much, and immediately began to cut the things as soon as they got them.
