Chapter 278: Invitation
Jin Shu knew that she must have done this for a purpose, but it was not clear what the purpose was. But it doesn't matter if she comes with a purpose, as long as it doesn't hurt her family, then Jinshu won't take it to heart. Anyway, it's over the New Year now, and the mother and daughter will go back in a few days. When there is only one Zhao Hui left in the general's mansion, it is estimated that Zheng Shuang'er will not come to the door so frequently at that time.
Jin Shu calculated the time, and there were still nearly two months before the peach blossoms in Qingshui Village were in full bloom. In addition to the time it takes to return to Qingshui Village, Jinshu and the others can only barely stay until after the Lantern Festival before leaving. Zhao Hui knew that she had her own things to do, so he didn't persuade her to stay a few more days, just thinking about when he would be free to go back and see.
The invitations that Jinshu painstakingly wrote a few years ago were all sent out. In order to make the people who received these invitations pay attention to this matter, she also specially asked Xiao Xuanyi to help send a few, and almost all of the rest were sent by Zhao when he went back to visit his friend's house. The number of invitations is not much, after all, scarcity is expensive.
However, the brocade book was not sent to the Li Mansion. First, she felt that Li Yunzhi might not have time to go back, and secondly, she didn't want the Li family to go back, so it was good to just skip them like this. However, I don't know where Zheng Shuang'er got the news, and when he came to the door once, he mentioned the matter sideways.
"Oh, Auntie said an invitation." Jin Shu pretended to think of it, "It's like this......"
She gave a general account of her transformation of Qingshui Village, and at the same time apologized for forgetting to send them an invitation. "Actually, my aunt doesn't need an invitation. We're all a family, and we'll definitely treat you well when you and Uncle go back. ”
"I'm not worried about that." Zheng Shuang'er thought about it and said a little embarrassedly, "It's that your uncle has a few colleagues, and I don't know where I heard you sending invitations recently, and I also know the relationship between our family, so I came to the door again and again just to ask your uncle to help get two invitations." You see, after all, you can't look up but don't look down, and your uncle can't refuse......"
She didn't say it thoroughly, but Jinshu already understood what she meant.
"That's fine, Auntie will take two of them when she goes back in a while. It's just that I've given away a lot of them, and now I only have three or four left, so it depends on who the uncle wants to give them to. ”
Zheng Shuang'er is not the cheeky ones of the Li family, and when she heard that Jinshu was willing to give her a few, she was very happy. The invitation letters sent by General Xiao himself, their family can get four, and others can guess that Li Yunzhi must have connections in secret. Naturally, they will associate it with Xiao Xuanyi, which will also help Li Yunzhi gain a foothold in the ministry.
Zheng Shuang'er only stayed for half an hour this time, and when she left, Jinshu really brought her four invitations. She accepted these invitations with a grateful face, and then said goodbye to Jinshu's mother and daughter with a smile.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, and it is a lively scene in Zhongjing City. That night, the Jinshu family also went out to enjoy the lanterns. The ten-mile long street is brilliantly lit and full of people. The entrances of the shops are filled with all kinds of lamps, including paper, yarn, and all kinds of different patterns......
Not only the streets are bustling, but even the alleys are full of light. The Jinshu family walked through the sea of people, and all the laughter was intertwined, which deserved to be a grand scene.
