Chapter 2: Family Affairs.
Whether it is or not, what son or not has nothing to do with her, Jiang Yanran, a poor fisherwoman.
Jiang Yanran cleaned up her mood, picked up the copper coins on the ground, and said happily to Jiang Ming: "Ah Ming, look, it's always money." This way you will have the tuition fee to go to school, and you will not be happy!"
didn't wait for an answer for a long time, turned his head to see Jiang Mingzheng with red eyes and said word by word:
"Sister, I don't want to go to school anymore. ”
Jiang Yanran was stunned when she heard this, and the smile on her face was still frozen on her lips. What's going on? Didn't it just go?
She said: "Ah Ming, you don't have to worry, Ah Sister is rich." ”
"Sister, I'm not a child anymore, I've grown up. Jiang Ming said suddenly.
Jiang Yanran wanted to say something, but Yu Guang saw that the onlookers had not dispersed before, so she took Jiang Ming's hand and said, "Let's talk about it when we go home." ”
Fengcheng is near the river, there are many barren hills, and it is impossible to grow food, so the people here live by fishing all year round.
Jiang Yanran and the others are from Xinghua Village, a remote village, where there are many other apricot blossoms, so they became famous, which is also the reason why Jiang Yanran sells apricot blossoms.
And this Xinghua Village is more than fifty miles away from the main city, Jiang Yanran and the two were speechless all the way, walking and stopping, and when they entered the village, the last rays of sunset on the horizon had dispersed.
Jiang Yanran's house was in the southernmost part of the village, and after greeting the villagers passing by, it was already dark.
As soon as he opened the courtyard door and sat down, he was about to speak, when there was a knock on the door outside the house.
When she opened the door, it was the lady next door, and when she saw Jiang Yanran, she laughed, "Ah Yan, go in, I have something to say." ”
As he spoke, he rushed into the house, Jiang Yanran turned around and closed the courtyard door, and as soon as she entered, she was pulled by the eldest lady and went to Jiang Yanran's house mysteriously.
Jiang Yanran only had time to say to Jiang Ming: "Ah Ming, pour a bowl of sugar water for the eldest mother." ”
The eldest lady waved her hand again and again when she heard this, "No, no, just a few words, I'll go home after I finish speaking, and your Uncle Tang is still waiting for me to cook." She knows the situation of the Jiang family, and she has always pitied their sisters and brothers for their hard work, how could they drink her family's sugar water.
She pulled Jiang Yanran to sit down, and couldn't wait to say: "Ah Yan, a great event, do you know Liu Yuanwai in Qinghe Town? ”
Jiang Yanran was puzzled, but what did this matter to her?
The eldest lady continued with a smile: "I'm talking about the three boys of their family, who are at the right age with you. ”
Jiang Yanran reacted at this time, but she didn't panic at all or be as shy as other girls, she just asked calmly: "I'm afraid that Liu Yuanwai's family is not suitable, and you know the situation of my family." ”
The eldest lady patted Jiang Yanran's hand, and couldn't stop feeling sorry in her eyes: "Is there any lady in these ten miles and eight villages who can compare to my Ah Yan, don't worry, the eldest lady will help you inquire." ”
"The third boy of his family, named Liu Lian, is eighteen years old, handsome, and has been in school for two years, and the neighbors say that he is a polite little lang. They don't ask for anything else just to find a virtuous and capable lady, as soon as I told me, I thought of you, there is no more capable than my Ah Yan. ”
Jiang Yanran was a little hesitant, she had already thought about getting married, the times are different, girls here are basically fourteen or fifteen to marry women, and she is already sixteen years old, it is the year of flower letters, as long as there is a suitable one, she will not exclude.
At this time, the eldest mother said again: "Ah Yan, you are already sixteen, you can't afford to delay any longer, listen to the advice of the eldest mother, forget what I said before, but this Liu Yuanwai can't miss it anymore." ”
Jiang Yanran said: "Forget it, auntie, I still say that as long as I promise to take Ah Ming with me, I will marry." This Liu family...... I really don't deserve it. ”
The eldest lady still smiled and said: "The eldest lady still doesn't know you, I have already talked about it, and informed the lady of the Liu family about your situation, there is no problem on the Liu family's side, as long as you nod your head, you can be hired immediately." ”
Jiang Yanran frowned and wondered: "Why are they ......?"
"Silly Ayan, you are so good, the Liu family naturally takes a fancy to you. She paused and finally whispered: "Then the third boy of the Liu family once met you by chance." ”
"It's the little Langjun who peeked at you in the Splendid Pavilion last year. ”
It's him......
Jiang Yanran thought about it for a long time before she recalled the scene at that time, and at this time she finally blushed a little, and then the eldest mother said something, she didn't remember it anymore, but finally said that she needed to discuss with Jiang Ming and answer tomorrow.
Who is the girl who doesn't have spring, because of this, Jiang Yanran was a little absent-minded when she was eating.
Jiang Ming saw it in her eyes, but didn't say anything.
Until the meal, Jiang Yanran didn't know how to speak after thinking about it for a long time, but Jiang Ming preemptively said: "Sister, I already know about the Liu family's Saburo." ”
Jiang Yanran glared at Jiang Ming and said a little angrily: "Ah Ming, eavesdropping on people's speeches is for the villain, Sister doesn't want you to be like this." ”
"Sister, do you like Liu's son?" Jiang Ming asked suddenly.
Jiang Yanran was stunned, and she didn't know how to answer.
Jiang Ming continued: "Sister, Ah Ming thinks that the Liu family is not worthy of you, and he is not worthy of you." ”
This childish remark made Jiang Yanran smile: "Then who do you think is worthy?"
Jiang Ming replied: "Sister should be matched with Liu Hanxing, the first son of the Seven Kingdoms." ”
Jiang Yanran deliberately teased him: "Your sister is just a poor fishergirl, she may be good in your eyes, but she is still from a humble background, how can she be worthy of the seventh son!"
Jiang Ming's face was full of seriousness: "Sister, do you like the Seventh Son?"
Jiang Yanran nodded without thinking: "Of course, who wouldn't like it!"
"Sister, then you don't want to marry Liu's son, you wait for me, I will definitely be famous in three years, let you marry the seventh son. ”
Jiang Yanran couldn't cry or laugh, pinched Jiang Ming's white and tender little face, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, Sister wait." ”
"Also, go to bed early, and come with me tomorrow to apprentice. ”
Jiang Ming pouted and muttered: "Sister, I won't go to school anymore, you don't have to spend money to prepare for the apprenticeship." ”
Jiang Yanran didn't take it seriously, she just thought that he was a child and said casually: "That's not good, you have to go." And you must study hard and not slack off. ”
didn't hear Jiang Ming's answer, Jiang Yanran said again in an aggravated tone, and said again at the end: "Jiang Ming, did you hear it?" ”
Even the name and surname, it can be seen that it is already in the brain.
Jiang Ming pursed her lips, and then she whispered.
Jiang Yanran sighed when she saw this, touched his head, and said earnestly: "Ah Ming, didn't you say that you want me to marry the Seventh Prince after you become famous? ”
Jiang Ming suddenly became energetic when he heard this, he patted his chest and said, "Sister, Ah Ming has grown up, and I can protect you now." ”
said and lowered again: "At this time, why does Sister Ah Ming push Ah Ming away and let Ah Ming go alone?"
Only then did Jiang Yanran know what the problem was.
"Ah Ming, Ah Sister is very scared, afraid that you will be hurt......"
"But Sister, Ah Ming is not afraid, no matter what happens, Ah Ming just wants to be with you. ”
Jiang Yanran hugged Jiang Ming and coaxed him: "Okay, that's Sister Wrong, I won't be next time." ”
"Really?"
"Of course. ”
After Jiang Yanran nodded, Jiang Ming pursed her lips and laughed.
Seeing this, Jiang Yanran finally breathed a sigh of relief: It can be regarded as coaxing, but the bigger it is, the harder it is to deceive.
"Alright, let's get some rest. ”
Jiang Ming nodded obediently, Jiang Yanran blew out the oil lamp and turned back to her room with satisfaction.
Take out all the cash in the house, count it and count it while breaking your hands to calculate the next expenses.
Everything is good, I found that there is still a surplus, I thought about it, I can make a new dress for Ah Ming, and I am a little satisfied with the copper.
and the Liu family, since Ah Ming doesn't like it, he still refuses.
It's just that the eldest lady needs to be appeased, if it weren't for her overt and secret care over the years, life would not be so clean.
