The autumn rain is new, the branches are pomelo, and the green bamboo in the village is her courtyard. The path is zigzag, and there are four magnolia trees outside the courtyard. Two pomegranates are planted on the side, the height is gradual, and the fruit is abundant. There are two dwarf golden and silver osmanthus flowers, and the flowers fall to the ground with the wind, and send incense with the wind.

The door is made of bamboo, and the sunset is climbing, and the book is not Hengyuan. The purple jasmine flowers bloom in two colors at the canal, and they are scattered. Along the road, melon shed green fruit, jujube, persimmon, orange ping. The small pond built in the courtyard has a little fish and shrimp free-range, and a cold spring has been introduced into the pond in the mountains, and the lotus leaves are late, it is emerald green, and a few branches of pink lotus stand in the pavilion. To the east, there is a half-new school. There are more than a dozen children in the village, and they know a few words here on weekdays.

The wedding dress is carefully cut, and it is just an ordinary look. The cold crisp is not good at needlework, and the sewing is repaired and dismantled.

In the evening, her sister-in-law Han asked: "Her family will come to welcome her on August 17, and your eldest brother and I are planning to go to the town in a few days to buy you a dowry." Other tables, chairs, beds, dressing mirrors, and waiting for two days to go to the old house to play. The procurement of the feast must also be prepared. ”

After the meal, Han Su didn't answer. only said: "My sister-in-law and eldest brother have arranged it, but the banquet is prepared at the old house." On the day of the wedding, the sedan chair man will take a few more steps to come back. ”

Han looked at her embroidered table, lit a new oil lamp, and twisted the needle and thread to sew it up. The nephew was tired from making a fuss in her arms, lying on her shoulder, sleepy-eyed.

"Don't think I'm too long-winded. Your brother is a rough man, and he only indulged you in the past. Later, I went to other people's homes, served my in-laws and elders, and lived in harmony with my sister-in-law. No matter how unhappy you are with the person in front of you, don't hang on your face for anything. ”

She covered the child with a quilt, took out a box, and also took an oil lamp and sewed grass and flowers: "You are the one who has been arguing with me and are not in harmony, why do you want me to live in harmony with others now." ”

Han thought about how much he dressed the child on weekdays, fed him and added food, etc., and said with a smile: "I can't hide my temper, and if there is anything, I will have a seizure, no one will bully me, you will hide it in the bottom of your heart if you have something, and don't say a word." Can it be the same? Don't teach outsiders to bully you. ”

Han Shu wore a few red petals, twisted the copper wire on the hairpin bone, and said: "I know that you let me, the family is a big family, and I want to come up and down with some education." Won't bully me easily. ”

The original loose stitches of the sleeve robe were finished, and she knotted and cut the threads and instructed: "You should be careful in everything, since you made a marriage, there have been many things in this village, and even my relatives who can't beat my mother's eight poles have come." felt that we were such a door, and climbed his house. Your brother is also a man who has been on the battlefield and has meritorious deeds. I think it's his family who has climbed us. ”

She nodded and said, "What my sister-in-law said is reasonable." ”

"Don't worry, if you're not doing well. Why did his family invite you to the sedan chair, and your brother and I will pick you up. I don't look at people well, but it's not as pleasing to the eye as the teaching gentleman in the town. Your brother agreed, saying that it would be better for everyone's grandmother to have no worries about food and clothing. Teach me, I hope you are better. Life and happiness are better than any riches. ”

Dong'er cried a few times, and Han was busy coaxing and carrying the child downstairs.

The silk in her hand was pasted with two flowers, shook her head and sighed: "It's all fate, people have to accept fate." ”

After a while, there was the sound of the courtyard door closing at the door. After a while, her brother and sister-in-law coaxed the child to sleep before calling her to the yard. She thought that she must have discussed some trivial matters, so she took a box and went downstairs.

The moonlight is distinct, and there are a few pine lights in the courtyard. The moonlight was good, and there were fireflies flying out of the cage. Han warmed a pot of spirits, and then gave her a pot of freshly brewed osmanthus and pear honey wine, and a bowl of peanuts boiled with salt and pepper.

On the table was a brocade box and an object wrapped in a black cloth.

Nie Hanyu is forty years old, and he was already a striker in the army in his early years, and he was extremely brave. After returning to his hometown, after his parents died of illness, he devoted himself to taking care of his wife, children and sisters, with dark skin and a look in his eyes.

After returning to his hometown for 16 years, he helped the township, and was highly respected and prestigious.

"Big brother, I came back early today, why don't you accompany Dong'er."

I had already drunk 3 cups during the questioning, as if I was very thirsty.

"I have two things for you, and the dowry is nothing more important than both. Keep it well, and when you have children in the future, you will pass it on to them. ”

She took a drink from her cup and asked, "Is there anything valuable, wouldn't it be better to leave it for Dong'er?" Isn't it, eldest brother, in fact, you have saved a lot of treasures before, and now you are only taking them out to send me a little bit? ”

It was originally a very serious scene, but as soon as such a sentence came out, even the Han family, who came out with salted duck eggs, burst into laughter: "If your eldest brother wants it, he should have handed it over to me for storage, and he will send you away." Do you want to pick up a bargain? “

When she saw the duck eggs, she poked them with chopsticks, and the red oil flowed down the duck eggs.

He put down his chopsticks, took his own box, took the silver, and gave it to Han's and said, "I picked some pearls in the past, and went out to exchange some silver." Our family has more than 20 taels of flowers a year, and the seeds of the banquet courtyard and the newly picked pigs and sheep are not small. I kept the money at home, and my sister-in-law kept it. I didn't have it, so I naturally came back to my sister-in-law to ask for some. ”

"You keep your own flowers, what do you have?"

"My sister gives it to you, just take it." He said to her again: "You don't have to worry about everything, if he dares to disrespect you and bully you, the eldest brother will kill him." ”

He took the box and said, "This thing, add makeup to you." The daughter of the Nie family naturally wants to marry beautifully. ”

"What's so about?" Open the box, it is a five-phoenix sunrise hanging pearl hairpin. It's familiar. She was busy with Songming and took a closer look, this jewelry was really familiar. Dongzhu is an auxiliary, the red treasure is a pendant, and the phoenix eye is a gem for men, and it is a craft made in the palace at a glance.

This is Princess Changshan entrusted by her close friend Meng Lan to give her sweetheart a unique ornament, and personally stared at the jewelry that was made and changed seven times.

She touched the jewel with one hand, and her heart tumbled through a thousand tastes, and she almost trembled as she took the pearl hairpin with both hands.

"Where did this hairpin come from?"

"Family heirloom."

The black cloth was opened and handed to her a bronze sword with a scabbard like a bamboo knot. The cold sword aura seemed to reflect how domineering this owner was back then.

She put down the bead hairpin and took the sword, and the scabbard was engraved with autumn sounds. It is the sword of Meng Lan before his death, a sword edge, and countless blood. Under the moonlight, there was not a trace of rust on the blade, and it was still extremely sharp.

"Big brother, do you want to say that this sword is a family heirloom?"

Nie Hanyu knew that this sister had been smart since she was a child, and she would definitely question how the Nie family could have such a thing. I didn't intend to hide it completely, and said half-truthfully: "This sword was given by a general when I was in the army. You keep it, and don't ask much more. One more question, break your leg to go. ”
