Chapter 87
With Gu Siyan's affirmation, Jiang Xuehe's writing is much smoother, and every time she writes a new chapter, she will take it to Gu Siyan to read. Gradually, she began to discuss the direction of the story with Gu Siyan, and then from time to time she asked Dr. Zhang for a few beauty prescriptions and the recipe of flower tea, and soon wrote twenty chapters.
After Jiang Xuehe finished writing, she copied another copy and took Yang Ermiao and Diao Ruyue to the county. Jiang Xuehe asked Yang Ermiao to take the manuscript to Qingyun Books, while she went to the gold store to pick up the gold jewelry she had customized. This set of gold jewelry includes hairpins, step rocks, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and rings, each with one or several pomegranate flowers on it, all of which are in different shapes, but all of them are very beautiful. This set was designed by Jiang Xuehe thinking about Haini's usual appearance and pomegranate flowers, and it just so happened that the master of this gold shop had good craftsmanship and was very exquisite, almost the same as what she painted, which made her very satisfied.
Jiang Xuehe happily gave the money and began to look at the storefront on the street again. Since she already has plans to open a store, of course she must take care of the shop first. Thinking that Gu Sixian said that she wanted to open a shop next to her, Jiang Xuehe felt that it was difficult to find a store that was connected together. Fortunately, this store will not open until next year at the earliest, so it's not too late to take a slow look.
Jiang Xuehe walked around and didn't see anything satisfied, so she had to go to Qingyun Book Club to find Yang Ermiao.
When Jiang Xuehe arrived at the door of Qingyun Books, she happened to see Yang Ermiao walking out of it, and she looked happy.
"Looking at Second Brother Yang like this, is the conversation going quite smoothly?" Jiang Xuehe asked.
Yang Ermiao said with a smile: "It's really going well, the shopkeeper said that he will print two thousand copies first." This is a contract, Madame can take a look. The shopkeeper didn't know what the effect of the book would be when it was finally listed, so he temporarily gave a deposit of ten taels, and when there was income, he would make up for the share to his wife. ”
Jiang Xuehe took the book contract and looked at it, and found that she could get forty percent, and was a little surprised. She asked Gu Siyan before, generally speaking, everyone is divided into three or two percent, and forty percent is very rare.
"Isn't that a bit higher?"
Yang Ermiao said with a smile: "Whose shopkeeper doesn't start talking about it from a low price, you have to be able to argue well, grind for a while, and always ask for more." ”
Diao Ruyue also smiled: "Madame doesn't know, Second Brother Yang has been a good bargain since he was a child. ”
"That's okay, the matter of negotiating the price in the future will be handed over to Second Brother Yang." Jiang Xuehe also discovered this, she is actually not very good at lowering the price, if she is allowed to buy, the final price is always a lot more than what Yang Ermiao negotiated, so she later handed over most of it to Yang Ermiao to do.
"The subordinates are willing to serve the wife."
Jiang Xuehe felt that her ears hurt when she heard this, but they did sign a deed of sale, and it was normal for Yang Ermiao to call himself like this. She corrected it a few times, but sometimes they remembered and sometimes forgot, and she didn't bother to say anything later.
Soon in July, Jiang Qingfeng and Hai Ni also got married. On the day the two of them got married, Jiang Xuehe took Gu Siyan's three brothers and sisters and his four younger siblings over early in the morning.
"The lotus girl is here so early today?"
Lin couldn't help it when she saw Jiang Xuehe, thinking that Jiang Xuehe didn't go when her son got married last time, and she also took away a few children in the second room. hated that she didn't react at the time, only when she was really inconvenient to move around during the filial piety period, and later she was reminded by the Xiaolin family that she remembered that Jiang Xuehe had already been out of filial piety.
"Auntie, sister-in-law in the lobby, sister-in-law in the lobby, sister-in-law." Jiang Xuehe nodded at them one by one, and began to work again.
Today, Jiang Xuehe mainly came to take charge of the spoon, and the lotus flowers bloomed just right there, and the meaning of the lotus flowers was not bad, so she got a lot of them to cook. She has been placed on the table with red robe lotus seeds, crispy fried lotus, lotus leaf drunken chicken, anchovy lotus root, lotus pork ribs and a lotus whitebait soup, each dish is very good-looking, I don't know if this is to enjoy the flowers or to taste the dishes.
The people in the big house were very unhappy when they saw it, and they thought to themselves, why didn't Jiang Xuehe not fulfill this heart on the day Jiang Qinglin got married? The third room has always been the worst mixed among the three brothers of their Jiang family, why do the people in the second room like to deal with them?
In addition to these, naturally there are also common dishes at wedding banquets on weekdays, which are all played by Jiang Xuehe very beautifully, but the more beautiful she makes, the more uncomfortable Hu Xiaohong looks at. It's all her cousin, and the wedding day is still so close, how can Jiang Xuehe be so favoritistic? It's a shame that when she saw the gold bracelet before, she thought Jiang Xuehe was a good person, but now it seems that she is just rich in the second room.
After Haini was welcomed into the new house, Jiang Xuehe and the sisters all went to the new house to accompany her and give her own gifts. Hu Xiaohong and Xiaolin were very curious about what Jiang Xuehe would give, so they secretly followed over to take a peek. The two of them knew that the two of them were given a pair of bracelets in the second room, and the style was similar, and they thought that the one they gave to Haini was probably the same, but they were afraid that Jiang Xuehe would give better things than them because of her good relationship with the third room.
Although the people who paid for the second room were the ones who paid for it, if the gifts of the two of them were not as good as Heinie's, they would feel that they were losing. Jiang Taohua was also curious about what Jiang Xuehe would give, she had to stare at it first and let Jiang Xuehe send a better one when she got married.
Jiang Xuehe didn't want to attract too much attention, so she wanted to wait for the people in the big room to leave and then take out her gifts, who knew that after one of them gave a purse, she stood there and didn't move. Jiang Xuehe glanced at the four purses and was very disgusted. This embroiderer can't even compare to Jiang Yuxuan's, and it's still very rough, so I'm embarrassed to take it out. Jiang Xinghua did a better job, but she was wooden, and the embroidered things were also dull, and she didn't like it.
"Sister-in-law Santang, I'll dig up the only one my sister has and send it to you!" Jiang Yuxuan said with a smile, "I originally wanted to embroider something like the second sister and sister Xian, but my craftsmanship is not as good as the two sisters, so I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha." ”
As soon as Hei Ni connected the four purses that she didn't dare to compliment, and then saw the pot that Jiang Yuxuan had brought over, and Dilian's eyes lit up. Who doesn't like something that means good, and it's natural. After touching and looking at it several times to confirm that it was really natural and Dilian, Hennie was overjoyed.
"I don't think there's a better gift than this." Hai Ni smiled, "I have also seen the Gu family's pond, such a large piece, it is not easy to find such a branch and Dilian, the sixth sister has a heart." ”
Jiang Yuxuan said with a smile: "Brother-in-law's pond lotus flowers are pink and white, all of them are light colors, and this one is so red that people can see it at a glance, so it can be seen that it was specially born for the third cousin and the third sister-in-law." ”
Indeed, Jiang Xuehe was also surprised when she saw this lotus flower at first, first, the color of this flower was extremely red, and second, this flower was really twins. When this flower was first dug up by Jiang Yuxuan, it was only two flower bones, but the flowers that came out were bright red, and the lotus leaves were more emerald green than the others, like jasper. Jiang Xuehe was very surprised when she saw it, and hurriedly found her favorite white porcelain flower pot and planted it.
"It's a good luck, I thought I could put it in the hall today, so that the guests could see it, and some rumors would be self-defeating." Jiang Xuehe said with a smile, "In the past few days when my sister-in-law got married, there happened to be a lotus in the house, which means that my sister-in-law is blessed." ”
Haynie's eyes couldn't help but red when she heard this, none of her family except her youngest sister cared about her, and they suppressed her everywhere, and even almost killed her. And the people of the Jiang family, before she and Jiang Qingfeng got married, they helped themselves everywhere and thought about themselves everywhere. In the past, she never dared to imagine that she could live such a life.
Jiang Taohua looked at Hai Ni with disgust, thinking that sure enough, the daughter raised by a poor ghost like Hai Dabao couldn't get on the stage at all, and she could be moved when she saw a pot of flowers. In her opinion, the most insincere thing is this pot of flowers, when you play, you dig it with your hands, it is not as good as their embroidered purse!
Jiang Yingchun looked at the pot and Dilian also felt rare: "Brother and sister, let's move this flower to the house, let everyone see it, and then move back to the house tomorrow." ”
Heinie nodded: "I listen to my sister." ”
Jiang Yingchun sent two pillowcases embroidered with Dilian double carp playing in the water and said with a smile: "I don't have anything to do now, so I embroidered a pair of pillowcases. ”
When Heinie heard this, she was delighted: "Thank you, sister." ”
Gu Sixian didn't actually need to give gifts, but she and Jiang Yunlan worked together to embroider a four-screen table screen, all of which were festive patterns such as flowers blooming and mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the embroidery was very exquisite, Haini couldn't put it down.
Rao is a greedy person like Xiaolin, Hu Xiaohong and Jiang Taohua, and he also likes this table screen very much, and he looks around Hainie's new house and feels sour, even such a broken room can't afford such a beautiful table screen.
Heinie didn't have this trouble, she felt that such a good thing could be kept well, and if she had a daughter in the future, she would give her a dowry. The Hai family didn't recognize her, and the Wang family was poor, so she married almost empty-handed. Although no one in the Jiang family's second and third rooms looked down on her, she still felt uncomfortable, and she didn't want her daughter to taste this kind of taste in the future.
"Third brother and sister, I'm late, I'm sorry."
When everyone was staring at Jiang Hanxiao and Jiang Xuehe, another woman walked in, the woman's facial features were graceful and graceful, although there were some fine lines on her face, she was in good spirits, and she had a three-point smile as soon as she opened her mouth, and she looked very pleasing. Hennie had never seen this woman before, and she couldn't help but look dazed.
Jiang Hanxiao introduced on the side: "This is Sister Lobby." ”
Jiang Meihua stepped forward and held Heinie's hand and said with a smile: "This is the third brother and sister, it's really a Peugeot beauty, my sister picked a hairpin for you, do you like it or not?" ”
Jiang Meihua sent a plum blossom hairpin, which was golden, but it was a little thin, Jiang Xuehe could see at a glance that it was refurbished, and she was a little speechless. She originally thought that this lobby sister was the best person in the big room, but now it seems that she does know how to behave, which is bullying Hainie for not knowing the goods.
