048 Mrs. Money
Gao Zhao was happy when he heard Jia Xibei's question: "Which son is like you, and you have to stomp your feet and puff out your cheeks?" Both piercings are transparent, just look at it. ”
Jia Xibei was annoyed, "This small dish, I still said that I can't see it, I blocked the ear hole with a tea stalk, why is it gone?" She touched her ears.
"Xiaocai is my maid, and now she is my little maid, and she said that no one can see through it."
Gao Zhao also wore men's clothes, and thought it was funny, "It's a pity that I can't wear my eldest brother's clothes, otherwise I will wear the same clothes as you, and then we will go out together, and make sure that I am more like a son than you." ”
Jia Xibei clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, okay, so that I am not afraid of other people's gossip." ”
Gao Zhao then shook his head and said, "My mother won't make men's clothes for me, so she has to teach me a lesson." ”
Jia Xibei's eyes were purring, and she had an idea in her heart, but she didn't say it, she just said: "Then let's say okay, let's go together that day, but didn't you say that you introduced me to Sister Qian?" I'll be at your house tomorrow. ”
Gao Zhao responded, Jia Xibei left happily, she wanted to say goodbye to her elders, Gao Zhao didn't let her, saying that her mother and aunt were busy, and she would talk about it tomorrow.
As soon as she left, Jiang and Gao Cui both came out, and both of them sat next to Gao Zhao.
"Zhao'er, what did Mrs. Jia say? I see you two laughing haha. ”
The anxious aunt hurriedly asked, and the Jiang family also looked at it curiously.
"What? Didn't my mother and aunt hear? ”
"You talk to Jia Niangzi, why am you and your mother embarrassed to listen at the door, and then let the people in Beijing laugh at our small people for not being knowledgeable, it's time to embarrass your father."
Gao Zhao looked at her mother and aunt's faces, as if she hadn't eavesdropped, but she and Jia Xibei didn't say anything unsightly, she thought that her aunt must listen secretly, but she didn't expect to hold back.
"Jia Niangzi, on the second day of the sixth month, Zhang County's family will hold a flower party, and then I will invite my mother to go with me, I said that I happened to be with Sister Qian, Jia Niangzi asked me to introduce her to Sister Qian, and I don't know anyone here, I think it's not a big deal, Jia Niangzi made an appointment to come to our house tomorrow, and then call Sister Qian."
Gao Cui's eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it the little lady of the Zhang County Ling family who is back?" The year before last, he said that he was sent back to his hometown to accompany his grandmother, and I thought that he must be a person who can't look down on us in this small place, so maybe he will go back to his ancestral house and marry there. ”
Zhang County Ling, a person from Xinyang, Henan Prefecture, has two sons and two daughters, the eldest son and eldest daughter have been married, and the second daughter is 14 years old this year, sent back to the ancestral house three years ago, and now a 10-year-old son is in front of him.
Occasionally, the county magistrate's wife would hold a flower party, and it was usually the official daughters who were invited, and the Jiang family had been there a few times.
Jiang listened to the words of the eldest sister, shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it, we will know in advance about this little movement, maybe as usual, let the family members in the yamen gather, let Zhao'er's words, contact feelings." ”
Gao Cui said excitedly: "Then hurry up and make two new clothes for Zhao'er, Zhao'er's legs are good, go out and make a show, let everyone see, my Zhao'er is good, maybe he will be hit by the mother of the house, there is still half a month, Zhao'er, my aunt will continue to make soup for you, look at the past half a year, the little face is also ruddy, and the height is also tall, and I have to continue to make up for it." ”
Jiang also said that Gao Zhao was not interested in making new clothes, but when he said that she was taller, he asked, "Really?" ”
also quickly stood up, to go back to back with the aunt, and let the mother see how much taller she was, this is what Gao Zhao often does, that is, to use the aunt as a reference, so that others can see if she has grown taller, her ideal is to grow to the height of the aunt.
"It's tall, it's still thin, your aunt is right, Ming'er will buy you new fabrics, and my mother will quickly make you a new shirt, which will be easy to wear that day."
Gao Zhao felt that he had grown taller, and he returned to the room.
In the evening, Gao Wenlin came back from his dispersion, and the Jiang family said that he was going to hold a flower party, and said that Jia Xibei was a little lady, and it was not gossip, but that Jia Xibei came to find his daughter when he arrived, and the master should be strange.
Gao Wenlin had seen that Jia Xibei, but how could he pay attention to those as a big man, and he was also strange, but thinking that Mr. Jia was a bit casual, it was estimated that the juniors in the family were also spoiled, so he didn't ask, but said that the flower party was probably organized by Mrs. County Commander herself, and there was nothing special in the county recently.
Jiang also talked about making new clothes for her daughter, and it was time to take them out for people to see, and then she also inquired if there was a suitable person to consider.
Gao Wenlin didn't worry about it since his father said that his daughter's marriage should not be in a hurry, he still believed in his father's gods, so wait for his daughter's marriage to fall from the sky.
The next day, after eating breakfast and cleaning up, Gao Cui went to the fabric shop with the Jiang family with great interest, and wanted to buy it for Gao Zhao to hurry up.
And Gao Zhao went to the house of the county lieutenant of Qian, she had to invite Sister Qian in person, otherwise her mother would not let her go out.
The Qian family is bigger than the Gao family, and the gate is not good to build beyond the specifications, but when you enter the door, the inside is obviously spacious, there is a hanging flower door, and there are three courtyards in the inner house, one is where Qian Yulan's grandmother lives, her grandfather passed away, and the other is where her parents live, Qian Yulan lives in a small courtyard, and her younger brother follows her grandmother to live in a small piece of the main courtyard.
Gao Zhao brought some food made at home, and went to say hello to the old lady of the Qian family first, and when the old lady Qian saw Gao Zhao, she happily pulled her to the front and asked Gao Zhao's family with a smile.
Mrs. Qian is gentle, not as mean as Mrs. Qian, but she can't control her daughter-in-law, so she can only favor her granddaughter in private, but compared with her granddaughter, she is also the only only grandson who makes her feel distressed.
Qian Yulan listened to the reply of the next person, talked to her mother, and hurried to her grandmother, Gao Zhao was coaxing her grandmother to laugh, she also pursed her lips, this Zhao sister Xiaokou can say, grandmother still asks about her from time to time.
When Mrs. Qian saw her granddaughter coming, she didn't delay the juniors to play, but she instructed her granddaughter to entertain the eldest lady of the Gao family, and specially sent someone to the kitchen to send a few plates of snacks to her granddaughter's yard.
The two of them were discharged from the hospital and went to Mrs. Qian's courtyard, where Mrs. Qian was reprimanding a subordinate daughter-in-law, when she saw Gao Zhao come in, she waved her hand to let the person retreat.
Gao Zhao saluted, handed over half of the snacks he had just given to Mrs. Qian, and said with a smile: "Uncle Qian, this is made by my mother, I specially let my leg heal and personally come to thank my aunt, my mother said that I was sick, and my aunt had the heart to send someone to give a gift, and let my niece thank me in person." ”
Mrs. Qian liked to flatter her the most, smiled when she heard this, let the maid take the basket, and said: "It's hard for your mother to remember, uncle, I feel sorry for the little lady the most, I heard about it at the time, but the uncle was distressed, that is, the family was too busy to spare time to come and go, so let Yulan go to see you from time to time, and now it's all good." ”
