Chapter 158: Fighting for the status of the mother's family
The other people who helped all went out, and only Lin Yinhua, Lin Xinghua and Lin Xue were left in the new house, who were curiously looking here and there, with a look of amazement.
Lin Yanniang was sitting in front of the dressing table, sorting out her twelve boxes of jewelry, except for the ones that had been used, the rest were all lying in the boxes.
She put all the boxes other than silk flowers into the small cabinet under the dressing table, and sorted the rouge and other small makeup items into several small drawers.
The small drawer under the small square table next to the kang was also opened and looked at, and saw that it was with a secret lock, and after finding the key, he put a few pieces of dowry silver given by his father and mother into it.
The rest is still stored in a small box, and then put it in the kang cabinet and lock it.
After she was busy sitting on the small pestle in front of the dressing table, she looked at the room carefully, and she didn't come over for the last two days, and the arrangements here were all made by men, fathers, and younger brothers.
Other festive arrangements for getting married were placed after the brothers came over in the Kannai.
She looked at it for a while, and saw that the little sisters had already climbed to the Luohan bed to sit, pushed open the half-window and looked out, she didn't pay attention to it, and also took off her shoes and knelt on the big kang.
There is a whole row of kang cabinets at the end of the kang, divided into two layers, the upper layer is wide, and large items such as quilts and clothes can be stacked without a door.
The bottom floor is narrow, divided into a few compartments with a small door locked, it is not easy to find it if you don't pay attention, and you can put some important things for furniture.
There is also a long row of low racks that are not wide, which can be used to put small objects, books, needles and threads, etc., and can be used or stored at any time when doing work on the kang.
There is nothing left on the kang, only a lattice plate carved with a peony figure, that is, the bed back, when you sit on the bed, you don't have to lean directly against the wall.
Although the average poor family has a big kang, there are almost no ones that are so meticulously and exquisitely equipped.
She refolded the quilt and stuffed it into the kang cabinet, and then carefully packed up the red dates, peanuts, longan, lilies, and other things that she had sprinkled on the red sheets before she entered the door.
Put the sewing and thread on the small square table in the kang cabinet, and then pile these things that imply early birth of cinnamon and good harmony for a hundred years on the small square table.
At this time, Lin Jie ran in.
"Sister! I'm done with it, I've got some food! ”
Lin Jie shouted happily.
Lin Yanniang turned her head to look and saw that he was holding a small basket, which contained green and yellow apricots, yellow plums with a faint red glow, and brilliant yellow loquats, and her eyes couldn't help but light up.
In the past, some wild fruits would be picked in the mountains, but the wild fruits in the mountains did not ripen faster than the farms, and there were no ripe fruits to pick at this time this year.
"Taste it too." Lin Yanniang immediately stopped tidying up the things on the kang, and also walked to the side of the Luohan bed and sat with the little sisters.
Lin Jie put the small basket on the small table and said generously: "It's all for you, I still have to go and see where I want to help." ”
His task is not to talk to his sister, but to his younger sister.
The eldest brother had gone to work, but when he was getting food, he thought of his sister and younger sister and they were still in the house, so he came over.
After Lin Jie left, Lin Yanniang peeled a loquat for her little sister, but she asked them to sit opposite, for fear that the juice would get on her wedding dress.
After eating one herself, she immediately took a rag to wipe the furniture and wiped her hands, not even daring to use the handkerchief, for fear that it would be dirty and unclean.
Seeing this, Lin Yinhua and Lin Xinghua also ate carefully, for fear of soiling their clothes, and it would be light to go back and be scolded.
But it is much more convenient to eat apricots, and the little sister can do it herself.
Lin Yanniang also took the opportunity to wipe the red fat off her lips, and then re-dyed some more, she didn't apply grease and powder, and she was dressed up to get married today.
"Sister is so beautiful!" Lin Xue was nibbling on an apricot in her hand, and ran over to stand in front of the dressing table, her little face full of admiration.
This is the usual sister, this is not the usual sister, where is the difference she can't tell, she just knows that her sister is so good-looking today!
Lin Yanniang looked at the cute little girl with a smile sideways, and suddenly turned her head and ordered: "Yinhua, take that basin to get some hot water, and wash your little face too." ”
Lin Yinhua was a little stunned when she heard this, but she still obediently took the first copper basin on the noodle rack in the corner of Luohan's bed, and walked out quickly.
After a while, Lin Yinhua came back with half a basin of warm water in front of everyone, and her little face was still red.
"They all said that the bride was good-looking, so don't just take off the makeup, I said, I said it was for us to wash our faces......"
Because my cousin just said so, she explained it like this, but she was still embarrassed in her heart.
"Hmm." Lin Yanniang smiled in response, washed the faces of the three sisters, took her body lotion and rubbed it again, and then sat down on the small pestle, adjusted the little rouge that had not been used up before, and painted three half-petal peach blossoms on each of their foreheads.
She painted red plum blossom makeup, and she could only count them as peach blossom makeup.
I didn't paint my lips, because the little girl's lips were red from the spot, and if they did, they would be able to eat them immediately, so they wouldn't dare to move.
Looking at the helpless clubbing in front of her, with serious and stiff expressions on her little faces, Lin Yanniang couldn't help but bend her lips funny.
"See for yourselves." Finally, she took the bronze mirror and looked at them.
The first thing to see was Lin Yinhua.
Lin Yinhua, who had just turned twelve, knew that beauty and ugliness were good or bad, and when she saw the flower ornament on her forehead in the mirror, she immediately blushed, but said gratefully: "Thank you, cousin." ”
"The second sister is also good-looking!" Lin Xinghua danced happily on the side, and finally came to her senses.
Lin Yinhua and Lin Xinghua both combed their bun heads, the two buns were wrapped with hair bands, and there were bangs on their foreheads, but they were cut shorter in summer, both above the eyebrows, looking spirited.
Now it is painted with peach petals, and the immature little face is instantly lit up with the lively atmosphere of spring.
Lin Xue was also jumping on the side to look in the mirror, her hair was short and there were many fine and messy hair, so the four small twisted braids made a small round face that had recently grown some flesh more cute.
Lin Yanniang originally wanted to give her little sister a cinnabar mole, but she painted peach blossoms for the two big ones, and she was afraid that the little sister would be unhappy, so she painted them together.
At this time, she looked at the little sister wearing pink clothes and pants with a pink peach blossom, and felt that pink and the little sister were also a good match.
It's like a pixie.
Lin Yanniang also smiled happily, sisters in the family should be like this, treat each other sincerely and have good feelings.
At this time, there was a lively greeting in the courtyard, and Lin Yanniang knew that it was the hunters from Yangping Village who had arrived.
Although it is not from the same village, after all, it is the same mountain to make a living, and she is married to the new Orion Yunsan, so Orion will definitely come.
"Daughter-in-law! Come to the door! Then I heard a man's voice laughing.
Lin Yanniang hurriedly reversed the mirror in her hand, checked the makeup on her face, and put down the mirror.
stood up and tidied up her dress again, and after Lin Yinhua said "okay" seriously, she walked to the door of the house.
I saw that there were many people in the yard, more than a dozen of them were from Yangping Village, and when I turned my eyes, I didn't see Yang Zhengfei.
But she looked as usual, and didn't show a surprised expression.
Yang Zhengfei always wanted to marry her to Yangping Village, but she couldn't marry outside, and he also had his mother's opposition, and he didn't even have a chance to propose marriage.
What's more, there was Yunsan later, and Yang Zhengfei's mother even came to the door to scold, in contrast, Yang Zhengfei didn't even have the opportunity to propose marriage.
I heard that Yang Zhengfei still doesn't talk to his mother, and he doesn't like to talk to people when he goes home every day.
Of course, he will no longer set foot in Daxi Village.
"Wow! Is this really Yan Niang? ”
One of the uncles couldn't help but shout in surprise, and didn't dare to look at the bright girl who walked to the door.
"Huh? I can't believe it. ”
"Haha, if she doesn't look alike, you dare to say that she is?"
"Is this really the little girl who runs in the mountains? Gee. ”
"......" Orion, regardless of the descendants or uncles, couldn't help but tease when they looked at the bride who walked to the door of the house and saluted to them with a smile.
Of course, they recognized Lin Yanniang at a glance, but today's bride's outfit really shocked their eyes, and they were all stunned.
In the past, the tomboy who wore a gray cloth coarse coat or even a patched coat, tied a ponytail or a bun at will, whether it was galloping, running, climbing trees, or archery, was not inferior to any man's wild girl......
At this time, she is like a lady, good-looking, gentle, and virtuous.
Almost instantly, in the minds of everyone who had read books for a few years when they were young, several words popped up to describe beautiful women.
They teased, also from the bottom of their hearts, and then glanced at the smiling man standing outside the door.
"Cloud Three! What a life! ”
"Yun San, you're lucky!"
"Yun San, the blessings you accumulated in your previous life only married us such a good Yan Niang!"
"Yun San, you have to be good to Yan Niang, otherwise all our Orions will not agree!"
"......" The hunters in Yangping Village saw the bride and began to tease the groom.
It's just that the hunters in Yangping Village spoke like this, and the hunters in Daxi Village, who had been in the courtyard for a long time, didn't follow it.
"Hey! Feed! This is our Yan Niang from Daxi Village, and not from your Yangping Village, Yun San dares to bully our Yan Niang, and our Orion in Daxi Village will never spare him! ”
"That's right! The hunters in our Daxi Village are all Yan Niang's mother's family! ”
"......" The hunters of the two villages fought like this, but there was no malice, so much so that they felt a little fighting for the status of their mother's family.
The two daughters-in-law of the Wang family came over to make tea and hurriedly retreated, and the hunters of Yangping Village sat here for a while, then went to the Lin family next door and congratulated Lin Ping'an.
On the Lin family's side, before the table opened, the people who had a favor had already crowded into the table outside the east wing.
The two rooms in the east chamber have been locked after Lin Yanniang got married, and the two people sitting at the table at this time who are responsible for writing the love book and collecting money are Village Chief Wang and Lin Xueshan.
Village Chief Wang writes a book, Lin Xueshan is responsible for collecting money, and there are two sieves beside him, which contain melon seeds and peanuts.
