Chapter 52: It doesn't mean that
Xu Lan was stunned, and couldn't cry or laugh for a long time, "Aunt Xiaohua, don't get me wrong, I don't have that kind of mind for Brother Liang." So whether that girl has a crush on Brother Liang has nothing to do with me. ”
Li Xiaohua looked at me whether she believed it or not, and said angrily: "Nonsense, do you think I can't see it?" I see what Liang Wei does to you, and I see you and me to him, if you don't mean that, why do you send him food. ”
"I sent food to Brother Liang purely because he helped me a lot before, and I was still favored." Xu Lan was helpless, "Aunt Xiaohua, don't think about it too much, besides, Brother Liang's identity, I don't deserve it, that girl is worthy of him." ”
Li Xiaohua glared, "You are talking stupidly again, why don't you deserve it?" I think it's a good match, Liang Weicai is not the kind of person who cares about identity, I think he usually cares more about you, he must be interested in you. ”
After speaking, he said earnestly: "Lan girl, when the opportunity comes, you must seize it, don't regret it until you lose it." ”
Xu Lan blinked, and she didn't know if she had listened.
Li Xiaohua looked at her and sighed, everything that should be said was said, and only the person concerned knew what to do.
She also saw that the girl who had just left was either rich or expensive at first glance, and she couldn't help but worry, so she reminded her a word or two.
Saying goodbye to Li Xiaohua, Xu Lan returned home with a bowl.
Zhang was watering the ground that had just been turned out in the morning, and Xu Lan went into the kitchen to wash the dishes, and also came out to water them together.
"Mother, didn't I buy cloth and come back, while the farm is not here yet, you should hurry up and make clothes." Xu Lan said while watering.
Zhang nodded, "Okay, but Lan'er, you bought too much cloth, it's enough for one person to make one dress, you don't need to make two sets." ”
"It's not much, two sets are good for washing."
When she bought the cloth, she planned to have two sets per person, where would she feel too much?
Besides, she didn't say that it was a summer dress, and when winter came, she would have to pull cloth and cotton back to make winter clothes.
However, this plan will be discussed later, otherwise the Zhang family will definitely not agree to it now.
Seeing that Xu Lan insisted, Zhang didn't say anything more, and when he finished watering and went back to tidy up the cloth, he heard Xu Lan's plan and found that it was not prepared for Chen.
"Lan'er, didn't you buy cloth for your milk?" Zhang's eyes were surprised, and then worried.
There is a family, but there is no Chen.
If the Chen family knows, they won't make a fuss?
Besides, it's not good to spread it, others will say that Xu Lan deliberately excluded the Chen family, and she is not filial at all.
Xu Lan didn't care and said: "What do you say outside, mother, you don't have to worry about it, besides, you don't have to worry about having no clothes to wear, didn't she take a lot of your clothes to change them before and wear them on herself." ”
The Chen family bullied the Zhang family to the extreme, not only robbed the Zhang family of a lot of clothes, but also took away all the dowry at the bottom of the box.
Zhang's mother's family is not said to be rich, but it is also not worried about eating and drinking, when Zhang's got married, there was a silver hairpin as a dowry. But who knew that the Xu family was separated, and after the Chen family came, they snatched the silver hairpin.
Zhang's mother's family lives far away, and he can't often come over to support Zhang's family, and Zhang's personality is more than one thing is better than less, thinking that Chen's mother-in-law should tolerate it, so he has endured it until now.
The silver hairpin was snatched away and there was no way to get it back.
Whenever she thinks of the hard life that the Zhang family lived under the hands of the Chen family, Xu Lan hates the Chen family so much, but she just didn't buy her cloth to make clothes, if the Chen family makes waves again in the future, she will not be soft.
"You don't have to be afraid, if the milk makes trouble, I have a way to deal with her."
Zhang looked at Xu Lan's expression and knew that she was for herself, so she couldn't help but sigh, "You have an idea, my mother won't say much, it's just that you know your milk's temperament, if it makes too much trouble, I'm afraid you will suffer." ”
Hearing this, Xu Lan smiled, "Mother, when have you ever seen me suffer under the milk?" ”
Zhang was stunned, and then smiled helplessly.
Now that the Chen family is still kneeling in the ancestral hall, it is also the Chen family to suffer a loss.
Looking at Xu Lan with a smile on her face, Zhang's heart was both relieved and satisfied, her Lan'er grew up and would not be bullied by Chen like her.
When sorting out the cloth, Zhang found that a few feet of cloth were better than more than one grade of cloth.
Although Zhang has not gone to the county to buy cloth, but he can also feel the material, this material is delicate, smooth and soft, and it feels good to the touch, and it is very expensive at a glance.
"Lan'er, how did you buy such good materials for these few feet of cloth?"
Xu Lan took the fine cloth of Xuanxi and didn't hide it from Zhang, "I bought it to make clothes for Brother Liang, and he helped me a lot, so I made clothes for him to repay the favor." ”
Of course, a suit of clothes is not enough to repay Liang Wei's favor, but it is a little bit to be able to repay it.
Zhang Shi paused for a moment, and then remembered that it was Liang Wei.
Thinking of the wild boar that Liang Wei brought over last time, Zhang nodded, "It's as it should be, you can't let Jia Bai help." ”
After speaking, after thinking for a while, she noticed that something was wrong, she looked at Xu Lan, and stopped talking, "Lan'er, you won't ......"
Xu Lan saw that Zhang's expression was the same as that of Aunt Li Xiaohua today, and knew that she had misunderstood, and hurriedly said: "Mother, don't think about it, I just want to repay Brother Liang's favor, and I don't mean anything else." ”
Hearing her say this, Zhang was relieved.
She had heard Li Xiaohua say before that Liang Wei was the eldest young master in the county, and although he lived in the village temporarily, he would return to the county one day.
It's not that the Zhang family doesn't want to find a good home for Xu Lan, it's that Liang Wei's status is too high, and she is afraid that after Xu Lan follows Liang Wei, she will be bullied by her family.
After all, that big family would let Liang Wei marry a country girl?
The Zhang family wanted to find a suitable family for Xu Lan, and Liang Wei was obviously not among them, and sometimes a lot of money was not necessarily a good thing.
Seeing that Xu Lan didn't mean that, Zhang relieved his heart, "Then let's do it for my mother, it's better to finish it early to send it to others as soon as possible." ”
Xu Lan shook her head, "Don't bother my mother, I'll do it myself, and I have to be sincere to repay the favor." ”
Seeing Xu Lan's insistence, Zhang didn't say anything more.
She still has a bunch of cloth waiting for her to make, a family of four, two sets per person, she has to be busy on weekdays, she can only find time to make clothes, a few sets of two months to finish.
The size of his own family, Zhang's family has long been familiar with it, and after getting the cloth, he began to cut it, Xu Lan roughly estimated Liang Wei's size, and also began to prepare.
One afternoon, the mother and daughter were both cutting cloth to make clothes, and in the evening, Xu Lan went to make dinner. Xu Dahai came back from the field and saw that the Zhang family was making clothes, although he felt sorry for the money to buy cloth, but he was looking forward to it when he thought of having new clothes to wear, and he didn't say much.
It's just that when I think of the things that Xu Lan brought back this time, the seventy-seven-eighty-eight add up to at least one or two taels of silver, and I can't take it down.
Where did this girl get the money?
She heard someone say today that the herbs she brought to the county seat were sold for more than 300 yuan.
