Chapter 42: Showing Off Can't Be Done

Shen Da had a flattering look on his face.

Shen Wan'er glanced at him, "I have a little money here, but how can I have as much as five hundred taels of silver, so you should work honestly by yourself, and after making money, I still want to repair the house, otherwise there will still be some leaks when it rains heavily in summer." ”

Shen Da pursed his mouth, and knew that he couldn't get money from Shen Wan'er, so he didn't bother to speak.

"If you have money, just push the house and build another one, I see that our house is in tatters, and it is very uncomfortable to live in."

"You think a lot, and it's not a little money to repair the house, you give it?"

Shen Da muttered, "Isn't this that you are rich?" ”

"I have? Don't you need money for the meat you often eat, the first few times someone came to the house and smashed a lot of things, isn't it money, these are all taken by me, you think about who earned the money at home, I don't expect you to be good, but don't drag my back legs It's already good, my sister is also very capable, and she takes care of the house very well, you are lazy with your own land, or it's better now. ”

"What's good, I'm so tired all day that I don't have time to catch my breath." That being said, Shen Da didn't have a dead face and didn't do it.

He also knew how much effort Shen Wan'er had put into this family, especially the last time, when someone came to make trouble, their family tied up their two daughters, but he was so scared that he swore in his heart that he would never gamble again, and now although he occasionally has itchy hands, he can control himself.

After a few days, Lin Yue'er finally came out with the news of her engagement, it was the young man she saw last time, and the situation at home was better than Lin Yue'er's family, and on the whole, it was a good match.

The Lin family was obviously very satisfied with the family, and for several days they showed off outside, showing off how much dowry they were willing to give them, and how much dowry they had.

"Call." Lin Yue'er was wearing an orange and pink dress, with a silver hairpin in her hair, and she could also see that she had been carefully dressed.

When Shen Wan'er passed by her, she could also smell the smell of the balm from the incense that was sold in the city.

Lin Yue'er and Shen Wan'er glanced at each other, both of them didn't like each other, Lin Yue'er snorted coldly, and then her eyes slanted to the other side.

Shen Wan'er didn't bother to bother with him, anyway, the current Shen Zhao'er shouldn't have any loss in Lin Yue'er's place, looking at the way she was dressed, it was estimated that she probably wanted to show off.

The clothes on her body were more delicate than muslin, and they had a slight luster, which was close to the appearance of silk, and it was obvious that no one else in Peony Village could afford to wear them.

"Shen Wan'er has to go out like this every day?" Lin Yue'er glanced at Shen Wan'er's departing back.

"yes, I basically have to go out every day, sometimes I stay in town for two hours, sometimes I stay a little longer, and I come back before lunch."

Shen Zhao'er warmly beckoned Lin Yue'er to enter the door, the people who came before had destroyed a lot of the furniture in the house, so the current furniture is basically new, Lin Yue'er took out a handkerchief and wiped it, and sat down after making sure that there was no ash on it.

"Zhao'er, do you think the clothes on my body look good?"

"Sister Yue'er, I just found out that the clothes on your body are newly made, they are really beautiful, and they are not cheap like this."

"It's not cheap, but I like it, so my dad made one for me, it's summer soon, and I have to wear some light clothes to look good."

"Yes." Shen Zhao'er nodded very approvingly, "My clothes have been made a few days ago, but I have been a little busy recently, so I haven't done them well, but fortunately, I still have the previous clothes, and I still have to go to the ground, so it's not good to wear new clothes and get damaged on the ground." ”

"That's really no way, you still have to dress fat to work in the fields, otherwise you will feel distressed if your good clothes are damaged." Lin Yue'er smiled, "Fortunately, I don't have to go to the ground, even if I go, I'm just helping to sow a seed or something, so it doesn't matter." ”

"That's the same, but you can't wear clothes like you on rainy days, and the hem will stain the hem after wearing it twice, and it's not easy to wash."

"It's okay, isn't there a new soap in the city recently, that soap is very good at washing dirty clothes, and it will be gone immediately when you smear some dirty things."

"You said that soap is really good to use, and it is clean." As the sister of Shen Wan'er, who made soap, Shen Zhao'er is naturally the first group of people who can use soap, and she also knows how good soap is.

Lin Yue'er gritted her teeth secretly, how could she forget that the fragrance floating in the city also has something to do with Shen Wan'er, and the things in the fragrance floating in the city can naturally be used by their family, and they are the first to use it.

"Speaking of which, I'm not much older than you, I've already made up my mind, although you don't have to be in such a hurry, you should also look at each other, but you don't have a mother, your father is not reliable, and I don't know what to do."

After speaking, Lin Yue'er thought that Shen Zhao'er would have a sad expression on her face, but Shen Zhao'er sighed, but she didn't feel much sadness, "We also talked about this a few days ago, Wan'er said that I am not in a hurry, I can think about these things in two years, I think about it, my father is like this, where is someone willing to want me now, even if there is, it is not a good family, so let's wait for two years, I will talk about it after the situation in my family is better, and I will save myself from marrying in to make trouble for others and drag my feet." ”

"But in two years, you'll be older, I'm afraid it's not easy to find."

"It's nothing, I'll only be eighteen or nineteen years old in two years, I'm not in a hurry, and ......," she laughed, "and I've been using whitening ointment all the time, and my skin is getting whiter and whiter, and after two years, when I look better, it should be easier to find my in-laws." ”

Lin Yue'er suddenly became angry.

Shen Zhao'er, this idiot, is still as stupid as ever, and she doesn't see what the purpose of her coming here is at all.

She came just to show off, and to stimulate Shen Zhao'er by the way, she had already found her mother-in-law's family, and her mother-in-law's family was very good to him, and Shen Zhao'er was too young for her, and she didn't have anything, she didn't want anyone, but Shen Zhao'er seemed to not understand anything, combined with some of her previous behaviors, I don't know if she really didn't understand or pretended not to understand.

"Then you can find it slowly, after all, you don't have a mother, and your father is unreliable, I'm afraid it's not easy, now if there is a suitable one, you can settle down first, otherwise it will not be good to wait for two years to be older."

Shen Zhao'er looked at her inexplicably, what is old, even if she is still young in two years, and even if she has no mother, the two sisters are not vegetarians, and they will definitely take a good look at her mother-in-law's family.

"That's nothing, but you're pretty good now, you've made up your mind, have you discussed when you'll get married?"

"It's been decided, in October this year, after a period of time, I will be hired, you don't know that their dowry is sincere, my mother is very satisfied."

Shen Zhao'er nodded approvingly, "That's too, I know your mother is very satisfied, in the past few days, I have seen her show off all over the village every day, and everyone else knows about it, how could I not know." ”

The smile on Lin Yue'er's face froze, she didn't want to continue talking to myths, so she casually found an excuse to leave Shen Zhao'er also felt that it didn't matter, he found that Lin Yue'er's friend was not so sincere to her, and she was still in contact, just because she was embarrassed to refuse.

"Uncle Dali, it's already noon, why don't you go back to eat?" When Shen Wan'er came back, she said hello to Uncle Dali in a village, this Uncle Dali was the one who was bitten by a centipede before, and his relationship with Shen Wan'er has been very good since that time, and he will greet him with a smile when he sees it on the road, and sometimes he will give some good things to Shen Wan'er when he gets something good at home.

"Well, I went to the mountains this morning to get some things, and this hare has the most meat, so I thought I'd bring it to you."

"No, I can't ask for your stuff for no reason."

"I'm too embarrassed to say that."

"What's the matter, Uncle Strong."

"That's right, I beat two rabbits and a pheasant, so I want to give you a rabbit, and let you help us roast the other pheasants and rabbits, and my two little nephews have been thinking about it since they ate what you made last time, and they have to shout for me to come, please get it for them again."

Shen Wan'er's craftsmanship has always been good, and she has conquered many people in the village with this craftsmanship, and some people are thinking about exchanging things for what to cook.

If the relationship is okay, Shen Wan'er will basically agree.

"Cheng, it's just that I'm going back to eat now, and when the meal is finished, Uncle Dali, you bring the pheasants and rabbits again, and I'll roast them together."

In addition to her outstanding skills, she also has seasonings, cooking methods and tastes are very important, and Shen Wan'er accounts for both.

The shelves and seasonings were ready-made, and after Shen Wan'er's careful cooking, the fragrance immediately came out, and Uncle Dali couldn't wait to thank him, and then took the pheasant and rabbit home.

Seeing Uncle Dali's running fast, Shen Wan'er also laughed, and she was naturally happy that her craftsmanship could be recognized by others.

The sisters ate most of the rabbits, and the remaining half was left for Shen Da, who had been doing well on Xiong San's side recently, and sometimes when she went to the town, Shen Wan'er would make a special detour to see how Shen Da was doing.

He and Heizi seemed to be able to talk quite well, and several times, Shen Wan'er saw the two of them chatting enthusiastically, if it weren't for someone watching them, they would have to throw down their hoes and find a quiet place to chat.
