Chapter 255: Bracelet

I secretly regret in my heart, now the Mei family has turned over too quickly, too eye-catching, and I really have to be low-key.

Otherwise, the appearance of his daughter, wearing silk and satin, and wearing the gold bracelet rewarded by the mother in the palace, I am afraid that she is not worse than the girls and young ladies of the big old man's family.

Now I can only bring two silver bracelets aggrieved.

Seeing that An Huahao didn't come back with him, Mrs. Li didn't ask anymore, knowing that An Huahao had her own business.

The Mei family all gathered around to see, the two brightly colored rulers, Zhou and Wen had not worn such a delicate color, so they could only look at it with envy.

Brown sugar, fruits, and pastries and tea are all tightly wrapped. The two jars of good wine were moved in by the two Tianlong brothers, and Mrs. Li suddenly screamed in distress: "You stupid girl, you are too sincere, you can't buy such a big jar of wine, I'm afraid you can't get ten catties, right?" Where is the use of so much? Three or four pounds is amazing! The old family, the old three, go and find two small jars and turn this wine over. The rest of the Ming Er will be returned! ”

Mei Xiaotong hurriedly said: "Mother, where is the need to retreat?" When the new house is built, no one is allowed to eat and drink? Besides, the fourth brother is not allowed to eat and drink on the day he gets married? I'm afraid that the rest is not enough. ”

When Mrs. Li heard it, she was right, and that's it.

After reading these, Mei Xiaotong finally took out two silver bracelets wrapped in cloth, as well as a pair of silver lilac earrings given by Zhou Ji and put them on the table: "This was bought in Zhou Ji, Lao Feng opened the auspicious cloud bracelet, and the weight of each one was one or two." This pair of studs was given by Zhou Ji. ”

Mrs. Li opened the cloth bag and saw that the snow-white silver bracelet was carved with the auspicious pattern of the dragon and phoenix, and the bracelet was circled with the inscription of Zhou Ji.

I took a pair and put it away, and pushed the rest in front of Wen: "Take it!" Don't talk about it in the future, I'll strangle you three rooms!"

Wen's face turned red, and it was not good to step forward to take it, and it was not good not to take it.

Or Mei Changqing was thicker-skinned, grinned, and touched the bracelet: "Don't thank you yet?" ”

As he spoke, he put the bracelet on Wen's wrist, Wen's was thin, and the bracelet was put on, and his hand moved, and it jingled.

was so envious that Zhou's eyes were red.

I didn't expect my mother-in-law to really do what she said, and she also played such a pair of bracelets for the third family, two taels of silver! Looking at the color, looking at that style, it is much better than the pair of bracelets left by the Mei family.

"Brother and sister, let me see, this bracelet is really beautiful......" Zhou grabbed the bracelet on Wen's wrist, eager to take it off and put it on his wrist to try.

Mei Xiaoque still couldn't stand it, and pulled Zhou's side: "You don't have nothing, what are you looking at with your younger siblings?" Shame on you! ”

Zhou muttered a few words, but he didn't dare to say anything, knowing that the bracelet didn't want to, and aimed at the pair of silver lilac earrings again.

This brother and sister and sister-in-law have bracelets, and they are the eldest daughter-in-law, so it's not too much to give them the silver cloves, right?

Mrs. Li could see Zhou's at a glance

Thoughts, if you want to make less trouble at home, just let go of your hand and give it.

But Mrs. Li is not a person who is afraid of things! Why did you give Zhou this eyesore?

It has been a few months since that incident, and now at home, the fourth child is in Chongzigou, and the main force of the family to collect mountain goods is the father and son of the big house.

Although the third child stayed at home and said that he was helping, he was lazy and lazy if he could.

Now this mountain goods business really relies on the hard work of the father and son.

Because of this, Zhou's tail has a posture of cocking again, and Mrs. Li has long wanted to find an opportunity to teach Zhou's a lesson.

So deliberately, I took the silver clove and looked at it: "Or my daughter will buy things, and she can get some more to come back!" It's not worth a few dollars, but it's silver. It's just that this trick is for the little girl's family to wear, Xiaoque, come here-"

Beckoned to Xiaoque.

Xiaoque stepped forward in a daze, not knowing what the milk called herself, and stood in front of Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li neatly put on earrings for Xiaoque, and looked left and right: "Sure enough, it is suitable for the little girl's family to wear, so give it to Xiaoque!" Anyway, she is also the eldest granddaughter of our family, and the women in our family have jewelry, and they can't leave you behind! It's a bargain for you today! ”

Xiaoque only felt that the milk pinched her ears for a while, and the ear piercings were hot.

Xiaoque couldn't believe it, reached out and touched it, and sure enough, it was a little cold.

Who doesn't love the little girl's family? The Mei family is now living better, and she can have a few new clothes to wear, so she is very content, but she never dreamed of having a piece of silver jewelry.

Reflexively thanked Mrs. Li and walked back to Wen's side sleepwalking.

Zhou almost didn't jump up, that pair of silver cloves actually gave Xiaoque that girl's piece? How old is she? Just wear silver stud earrings?

Mother-in-law, this is a slap in the face of the big house!

The house is full of people, everyone inside and outside, why is there not a single straw in the big house?

"Mother, you're like this-" The rest of the words, the Tianhu next to him saw the opportunity, covered his mouth, and whispered in her ear: "Mother, you are confused!" I forgot what I said that day, do you want to be divorced by my father? ”

Zhou was stunned, turned his head and saw Mei Xiaoque's rare dark and calm face, and he looked really angry.

Suddenly, all the strength in his body disappeared, and he lowered his head in a sneer.

Or Tianhu broke the siege: "My mother is happy." ”

Although everyone knows where Zhou is happy, she is about to go crazy.

But since her sons say that she is happy, everyone should be happy with her.

The open and secret battles between adults are not yet understood by children.

Tianbao looked at the kang full of half-kang food, especially staring at the pastries, dried fruits and brown sugar a few times, rolled his eyes, pulled Xiaojuan and Xiaoduo, and came to Mei Xiaotong.

"Auntie, aunt,

Did you bring us anything to eat? Now that Mei's family is wealthy, Mei Xiaotong will bring some snacks to the children no matter when she comes back from the town, so that they can be sweet, which is also a reward for them to help work at home.

In the past, as soon as she came back, Mei Xiaotong would give them points, but after listening to the adults for a long time today, they couldn't bear it anymore.

Looking at the eager eyes of several children, Mei Xiaotong took out a bag of dragon whisker halva crumble, this is a pastry shop to make dragon whisker halva, there will always be broken leftovers, or bad appearance, which is broken alone, and the guests who come to buy pastries can bring a bag cheaply and give it to the children at home.

Mei Xiaotong went to buy pastries just in time today, and she also brought a big bag.

Hand it to the leopard: "Take it and divide it, don't eat much, rinse your mouth after eating, otherwise you will have a toothache, and I won't buy it for you in the future!" Did you know? ”

As long as the children have candy to eat, they nodded again and again, and a few little guys, around the leopard, went to the yard to share the sugar.

Even Xiaoque, for her at present, the attraction of sugar is still greater than that of silver studs, and she followed her out.

In the house, Mrs. Li explained the matter: "Ming'er, boss, you drive your Mei aunt to Chongzigou, do you know the road?" ”

Mei Xiaoque nodded: "I know, mother, don't worry!" ”

"That's okay, let the old family clean up for you tomorrow decently, don't lose the face of our Mei family, let's go back to the house." After Mrs. Li explained, she waved her hand to drive away.

Zhou was still struggling, and was dragged out by Mei Xiaoque.

Wen was in a trance of joy from the moment he touched the silver bracelet, or Mei Changqing half-pulled and half-pushed back to the third room, sat on the kang, and came back to his senses for a long time: "Boss, I'm not dreaming, right?" Did my mother really give me a bracelet? Mei Changqing was lying on the kang, swaying with Erlang's legs crossed, looking at his daughter-in-law's unproductive appearance, and said lazily: "It's not dark yet, it's too early to dream!" It's time to cook, okay, don't touch those two bracelets, and you won't run away with long legs? Pack up and go cook, don't make your mother angry, and take the bracelet back. ”

When Wen heard this, he was so frightened that he shrank his hand into his sleeve, and he hurriedly stood up and was about to go to cook.

When I walked to the door, I felt that it was inappropriate, so I touched the two bracelets with love: "This is a silver bracelet, and you can't let the fumes dirt it." As he spoke, he took the cloth and wrapped it in his arms, and then hurried to the stove house.

In the stove house, Zhou's face was calming and making a fire, and when he saw Wen come in, he pouted: "Oh, brother and sister, you have taken a big advantage today." followed the old four families who didn't enter the door, and got such a big Qiaozong, now looking at it, in our family, it is you and the old four families who have not passed the door, and you are decent in front of your in-laws. Such a heavy silver bracelet, just give it, even Xiaoque's girl piece can be stained with silver studs. I'm the only sister-in-law, but I haven't even touched the edge. I can't say that in the future, we will have to live by looking at the eyes of your younger brothers and sisters-"

Zhou

I only dared to say some strange things in front of Wen's, and when I went back to the house before, I asked Mei Xiaoque to clean up and let her be honest, and then I rushed her to cook, and I really held my breath in my heart.

Wen's got the bracelet, it was the time to be happy, this is a real amount of silver, plus the one or two pieces of silver given by the owner, and the monthly money in the past two months, Wen's has money in his hand, and he feels that his waist is straighter.

What's more, why Zhou's doesn't have a bracelet, everyone knows it.

Therefore, only Zhou's words are deaf to the ear, and the cooking with a smile is not mentioned.

Early in the morning of the second day, I took the matchmaker into the house, had breakfast, brought two bags of pastries, and two catties of meat cut at the entrance of the village in the morning.

Yesterday, I had already bought a big herring weighing more than ten catties, slaughtered it cleanly, wiped it with a thin layer of salt, and hung it under the eaves with a straw rope and blew it all night.

Mrs. Li said a few more good words, and the matchmaker got into the carriage, Mei Xiaoque was wearing a ninety percent new indigo dress in the morning, looking steady and honest, driving the carriage, and slowly went towards Chongzigou.

Mei Xiaotong agreed to Guan Yifei's jade mushrooms, cleaned up, and entered the mountain.

When I arrived at the cave, sure enough, it was the time to harvest the jade mushrooms.

Mei Xiaotong carefully laid a layer of leaves in the bamboo basket she carried on her back, and then padded pine needles and soft grass on top of it, and then put the jade mushrooms she picked on it and placed them neatly.

Then spray the diluted Gene Evolution solution to keep them fresh.

After the harvesting, the gene evolution liquid was also sprayed on the fungus bed to promote the mycelium to grow jade mushrooms again.

Then covered the bamboo basket with leaves, Mei Xiaotong was just about to carry the bamboo basket home, and suddenly remembered that she seemed to have a storage box?

Hurriedly summoned Xiao Tongtong: "Xiao Tongtong, my storage box, there won't be any problem with putting the jade mushroom in it, right?" ”

Xiao Tongtong's voice was a little weak: "Please rest assured that the storage box has a preservation function, and fresh vegetables, fruits and plants can ensure that nutrients and moisture are not lost for fifteen days in the storage box." ”

That's great.

Mei Xiaotong put the jade mushrooms into the storage box and carried the empty bamboo basket down the mountain.

She has a lot of things to do in the past few days, and she doesn't have time to take care of Xiao Tongtong, but Xiao Tongtong is actually unusual, she didn't come to disturb herself, urging herself to complete the task. She came back at the right time, and Mei Xiaoque and the matchmaker's aunt had just arrived home on the front foot.

Mrs. Li is pulling the matchmaker's aunt to ask about the situation.

The matchmaker is an extremely cool aunt, and she always has something to say.

was talking to Mrs. Li: "I said Xiaotong and her mother, you are really blessed, this vision is really good, the Liu family, although it is a hunter in the mountains, but I think it is extremely polite." The person is also sincere, I also saw the girl, generous, and the body is easy to give birth to. ”

Mrs. Li showed a smug look: "That's not it, I fell in love with that girl at a glance." ”

The matchmaker smiled and came together.

They arrived at Chongzigou at noon, and before they could ask for directions, a child who recognized the Mei family's carriage came up, seeing that it was a stranger, and asked if it was Mei Changgui's eldest brother, looking for the Liu family.

They were all very enthusiastic, some led the way, and some ran back in advance to report the news.

It didn't take long for the two brothers Mei Changgui and the Liu family to come out.

Seeing that it was a well-known matchmaker in the village who came down from the carriage, Mei Changgui didn't understand anything, so he could only smile stupidly.

It was Mei Xiaoque who explained the intention, and the two brothers of the Liu family were busy inviting people to their home.

Liu's father and Liu's mother estimated that these days, the Mei family was going to send a matchmaker, but they didn't enter the mountain and waited at home.

When I heard the news, I breathed a sigh of relief.

When he saw Mei Xiaoque's steady and honest appearance, as soon as Father Liu heard that he was the eldest brother, his heart became more and more steady, and the eldest brother of the Mei family was not difficult to get along with at first glance.

After saying a few words, the matchmaker explained his intentions.

Liu Xiaoqiao, who praised him vigorously, showed the intentions of the Mei family, and appropriately praised Mei Changgui, and briefly talked about the situation of the Mei family.

It can be regarded as letting the Liu family have a number in their hearts.

The Liu family saw that the matchmaker invited by the Mei family was not like those matchmakers, who took other people's money, dared to say anything, and praised the man's conditions to the sky, with no shortcomings at all, and couldn't believe half a sentence.

On the contrary, it is said to the point, and the words are good, the conditions of the Mei family are good, but there are many brothers and sisters, and they do not hide these without separating the family.

It made the Liu family more and more down-to-earth, and the Mei family sincerely came to ask for marriage.

Liu's mother has long been willing to do a hundred and a thousand, but she still has to take a shelf, and when the matchmaker asked her parents for their opinions, she also said that she would think again.

Mei Changgui was anxious when he heard it on the side, what else did he think?

I was so anxious that I couldn't wait to rush out and ask, but fortunately I was stopped by Mei Xiaoque.

The matchmaker is well-informed and knows that this woman is only afraid that she is willing to do it, but for the sake of face, she has to take it like this.

However, she got the promise of Mrs. Li, if she can make the Liu family relent, exchange Geng post, and give her a big red envelope today.

At first glance, these two families are willing to be children, and their matchmaker is just going through the motions.

I was not in a hurry at the moment, but told Liu's mother about raising children, starting from my own house, and slowly persuading Liu's mother, since the two families are satisfied with each other and are sincere to each other, why bother to take a shelf?

The distance between the two families is so far, it is not easy to come up, the Mei family is really hiring the girl of the Liu family, and they are all on the list of dowry gifts at home.

He also said a few things about the gifts that he could get on the dowry, and finally said that Mrs. Li liked the girl of the Liu family, and she paid for a pair of silver bracelets for the girl of the Liu family.

The Mei family has shown such great sincerity, why shouldn't the Liu family be more generous? In the future, after all, the girl will marry into the Mei family to live, and give her in-laws a good life

Impression, wouldn't it be better?

With such persuasion, Liu Mu's heart loosened a little.

Especially when I heard that Mrs. Li also gave her daughter a pair of silver bracelets, there was nothing to say.

As soon as Father Liu heard that the Mei family was so sincere, he immediately made a decision, and accepted the gift on the spot, which was regarded as agreeing to the marriage and exchanging Geng posts.

The two families made an appointment for the next day, and they were all happy and smooth.

The Liu family was also happy, made a table of game, invited Mei Xiaoque and the matchmaker to eat, and gave the matchmaker a pheasant before sending it down the mountain.

After speaking, the matchmaker took out the birthday eight characters of the two people wrapped in red paper from his arms and handed them to Mrs. Li.

This birthday only needs to be enshrined in the Mei family ancestral hall for a few days, if everything goes well in the family these days, there is no problem, that is, the eight characters are extremely compatible, and there is no disobedience, excellent karma.

Seeing that the matchmaker did things neatly and beautifully, Mrs. Li was not stingy, so she took out a red envelope of one or two silver and stuffed it to the matchmaker.

When giving a dowry gift in the future, a matchmaker is needed to come forward when receiving relatives, the matchmaker is happy, and the marriage can be smooth and smooth.

The matchmaker said goodbye, and on the way back, he couldn't help but open the red envelope and see that it was a full tael of broken silver, which was really overjoyed, and when she needed to come forward after the marriage of the fourth child of the Mei family, it was extraordinarily refreshing and hardworking.

Mei Xiaotong saw that things were going well, and Mrs. Li arranged everything in an orderly manner, and she didn't have to worry about herself for half a day, and she was relieved.

Early the next morning, he drove the carriage to the town.

When he arrived at the town, seeing that there was no one in front and behind, Mei Xiaotong took the jade mushroom out of the storage box, put it in the prepared empty bamboo basket, pulled a few leaves and covered it, and then drove the carriage on.

When he arrived at Guan Yifei, An Huahao had already arrived, and was talking to him about something, when he saw the carriage, he hurriedly greeted him.

Guan Yifei saw that the carriage had stopped, and he also looked at it with a blank eye, just waiting for the jade mushroom.

Mei Xiaotong slipped out of the bamboo basket from the carriage and entered the yard, only to remove the leaves on it, revealing rows of high-quality jade mushrooms, as fresh as fresh.
