Chapter 234: The Old Man's Great Birthday
In October, when the rainy season passed, the people in the village also changed into thin jackets, the women were rushing to buy new cotton shoes, and the men were also busy stocking up on winter grain and vegetables.
Lin Yanniang's stomach was already slightly bulging, and when the women in the village came to visit the second room of the Lin family, they couldn't help but ask, Yun San's trip, did it have to be more than two months?
I heard that someone from the capital came to accept the peace talks on the northern desert side.
I heard that the Northern Desert still wanted to make peace with the princess, but because Dongli refused to return Yangcheng, the matter was still being discussed, and no result was reached.
I heard that a new town will be built over Baihuaguan......
I don't know where the news of the women came from, and the content is quite rich, but none of the news is about the food delivery team, only that it is a military plane, and no one dares to say it.
That is to say, the people did not know about the transportation of military rations, so they could not talk about it.
Naturally, no one knows Yun San's current whereabouts.
The man left at the end of August, and now October has passed, and there is no news of him for two months.
And Cloud Five and Cloud Six also seem to have never appeared.
Lin Xueshan came a little news from the town, saying that he had gone to a few inns to ask, and the guys at the Bafang Inn had the impression that there were indeed two young brothers who lived with their subordinates for two days, and then left, and there was no danger, at least they had not heard of conflicts or quarrels in the inn.
At this point, Lin Yanniang could only let go of this worry, but scolded her own man in her heart.
Later, when the village chief was rushing to the town to run errands, she immediately asked her father to take Lin Can and Lin Jie with the donkey cart of the village chief Wang, and went to the town to buy a birthday gift for her grandfather.
The third day of the winter month is the old man's birthday.
The day came quickly, but Yun San did not return.
Everyone in the village is talking about this, but Yun San didn't come back?
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone knew some inside information, so they were all surprised by this result.
Lin Yanniang sat in the room, stroking the four cotton robes made for men, feeling inexplicable.
"Sister! When are we leaving? ”
Lin Xue ran in in a pink jacket, still with two small braids on her head, and her scattered hair was tied up without looking messy.
After these days of good food, there is no longer a problem of nutrition that can't keep up, the little face has a water color, the hair quality is also a lot better, and the small braids are combed to show cuteness.
"Wait, it doesn't have to be so early." Lin Yanniang hurriedly smiled, not letting her sister discover the melancholy she was pressing in her heart.
These days, my little sister sleeps with her, and she will chatter and talk non-stop at night, and she has to coax her to fall asleep.
Once the little sister actually asked her: "Sister, do you want to be a brother-in-law?" ”
When she deliberately said that she didn't want to, she actually got up angrily, looked at her with aggrieved eyes, and said loudly: "I think about everything!" You don't want to! Brother-in-law will cry! ”
is a child who is almost five years old, and it is not in vain that her brother-in-law loves her.
For the sake of the question that she didn't think about, she actually lost her temper at her, which really made Lin Yanniang cry and laugh.
But it can also be seen that the man has indeed been gone for a long time, so long that even the younger ones in the family will miss it.
She put all the winter clothes and shoes she had made for men into the box, and got up and changed into a long thin cotton robe, which was a straight-fitting cloak style, like a man's robe, which could cover the ankles all the way and only expose the corners of the skirt.
Although they are not cotton shoes, they are thick boots with several layers of fabric, which cover the ankles.
It's not that she's afraid of the cold, but it's a little cold outside today, and she's a pregnant woman with limited activity, so she naturally has to take care of herself more carefully.
The same pink cotton robe is embroidered with yellow, purple, green, and white silk threads, which still looks a little rich.
The little sister used the same material, and the sisters stood together, one big and one small, looking very loving.
After combing her hair in a bun, she inserted a pair of gold-inlaid jade butterfly hairpins on her head, as well as a golden plum flowing rain small step, and a beaded hairpin, and then pressed the sideburns with two pairs of small and delicate silk flowers.
At this time, the two brothers also came, and they also wore new thin jackets and trousers, and the shoes were still the same ones made in autumn.
Today's grandfather's birthday is naturally very grand, especially knowing that my aunt's family will return today, I don't want to weaken the momentum in their second room.
There was no way before, but now I have to wear it, of course, I have to wear it well, so as not to be disliked.
At a young age, he already understands the difference between his family and those people, instead of just thinking that he is his relatives and elders, and does not understand the contempt in the eyes of those people.
Lin Yanniang locked the door of the house, and her father and mother waited in the yard over there, shouting that the brothers who ran over here first and went back to help get the gifts.
Lin Yanniang hurriedly bolted the courtyard door again and followed over there.
Lin Song saw a few pieces of valuable jewelry on her head, and couldn't help but helpless: "Today is your grandfather's birthday, and all the people who came here are from the village, why are you so rich." ”
Recently, the people in the village have been talking about Yan Niang because Yun San has not returned for a long time, and he is still so ostentatious, isn't it attracting people's attention?
"Mother, the more others say, the more you have to be stronger, and tell those people with actions that even if Yun San doesn't come back, I, Lin Yanniang, will live the best life."
Lin Yanniang smiled and understood what her mother meant, but she didn't think so.
She's not ostentatious, but she also never wants to keep a low profile.
In short, even if she is wronged, she will pull her back, and she will never be wronged silently.
What's more, when the Zhou family came back today, in front of her aunt, who hated the poor and loved the rich, she didn't want to be too weak, but she also knew that her aunt's family came back from Guannei.
What is the situation in the Guannai, and what is the situation of the Zhou family in the Guannai, she doesn't know, this trip to the big house, she doesn't think that she will be a guest to eat easily.
And today is grandpa's sixtieth birthday, and it is a birthday to be celebrated by a banquet, so in order to save face, she asked her father to go to the town to buy two brocade fabrics instead of fine cotton.
At the same time, it was also through this incident that my aunt knew that muslin was the best material for the peasant family to consume, but it was not her family's, and my aunt despised her family by doing so, and she didn't disdain it at all.
She bought two brocades, worth one tael or six cents.
Dad bought two jars and two catties of good wine, worth six yuan.
After that, she would put two more coins on the favor book, and gave her grandfather a red envelope of two taels, and her father put two coins on the favor book and no longer gave red envelopes.
In the final analysis, his father is still the father from a poor family, he has done his best, and he doesn't need to fill in any façade.
Eight coins of silver is eight hanging money, which can be reached in any family in the village, and people can't gossip.
But she is married to Sekichi Yunsan, so naturally she can't mix with her father and only give those.
And if she gives too little, and the people in the village don't say anything, my aunt will definitely not let go of this opportunity, not to mention that there are annoying mothers and daughters in the big house who will let go of the opportunity to talk about her?
Today, she put on these jewelry and prepared so many gifts, just to fill the façade for Yun San.
