Zuo Ranjia wanted to make handmade soap, but looking at the steps searched, she found that a process would take at least a month, so she could only stop this idea and directly buy a hundred ready-made handmade soaps. Of course, she hadn't forgotten to buy a wooden seal engraved with a certain Xizhi script book "A Hundred Years of Good Harmony", and a box of golden pigments that couldn't be washed off.

When the three babies were dressed up and hurriedly ran over to look in the mirror, they saw that the table was full, and after being surprised, they were inexplicably excited, and an unclear feeling arose.

"That's good," Zuo Ranjia raised his head and looked at them, smearing horse oil three times a day for several days, most of the plateau red on the faces of the three babies had faded, and they were wearing new clothes, and their spirits were a bit like modern city people.

"Hurry up and drink your malt essence and work together," Zuo Ranjia smiled and began to cut the red cotton cloth into two palm-sized pieces of cloth into a hundred.

She assigned the work to everyone, and she was responsible for sewing the hem of the cotton cloth, leaving an empty space for threading at the mouth of the sachet when the hemming was locked. The step was quick, almost a pinch of the mouth and a circle of threads, and then stitching, and she could make one in less than a minute while stepping on the sewing machine.

Du Xuqing's task is to thread the black wool thread from the mouth of the sachet and tie a slipknot, Du Jinqi takes the seal and dips it in gold paint and carefully covers the middle of the sachet, while Du Xuyuan puts a small pinch of dried osmanthus, a box of matches, two pieces of chocolate candy, two pieces of milk candy, two pieces of fruit candy and a piece of palm-sized boxy and boxy wine-red transparent handmade soap into each sachet.

In two hours, they quickly finished loading a hundred souvenirs, looking at the gold-lettered red-faced bulging sachets neatly stacked in wooden boxes, everyone felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Zuo Ranjia filled the fruit bowls and dried fruit bowls in several rooms, and continued to think about what she had left.

"Sister-in-law, aren't you locked?" Du Xuqing looked at the large open boxes in the compartment, the fruits in them were big and full and bright, and they were attractive to look at, and the several kinds of meat next to them were neat and fresh, and the candy and dry goods were all high-quality goods. The more you get to the end of the year, the more sought-after these things become, and you may not be able to buy them if you have money. "Tomorrow there will be a lot of people, maybe someone will be sent away. And the third uncle and three aunts have to come. ”

Zuo Ranjia knocked on her head, she was not as thoughtful as a thirteen-year-old child, she patted his head, "Awesome, my little housekeeper." ”

Du Xuqing straightened his chest and coughed lightly: "That's, you don't want to see who the young master is!" That tone is six points similar to Du Xuze.

Zuo Ranjia slapped it unceremoniously and scolded with a smile: "If you don't learn from your brother, you can just talk about these words at home in the future, and you have to be more restrained when you go outside." ”

Du Xuqing snorted twice, "Brother, why is it not good?" ”

"Your brother is kind-hearted, but his temperament is too flamboyant, and it's easy to suffer. You can't learn from him," Zuo Ranjia patiently explained, "You only saw your brother's bright side, not the embarrassment of him hitting the south wall." ”

Du Xuyuan and Du Jinqi are not very old, and they can't see anything yet, but Du Xuqing is a villain, with a flexible brain, and there is no ink in his stomach. Zuo Ranjia thought, when Du Xuqing's knowledge is solid, pick a few strategy books for him, and let him understand that his brain is more useful than his fists.

Zuo Ranjia not only locked those fruits, meat, and salted duck eggs in the mahogany box, but also locked the things he bought one by one. Tomorrow the family will be coming and going, and she doesn't want to cause some unnecessary trouble.

Du Xuze woke up at five o'clock, kissed Zuo Ranjia's forehead excitedly, touched her ears for a while, and didn't dare to move much, for fear that the girl in his arms would be angry and even let him sleep with him.

"It's only five o'clock, and you're no longer sleeping?" Zuo Ranjia squinted, looked at the watch on the wall by the clear moonlight, muttered, and buried his head in his arms again, not letting him mess with himself.

"I can't sleep," Du Xuze also woke up somewhere, for fear of scaring her, and moved his lower body out slightly. He stroked her hair, and his voice was hoarse and excited: "Daughter-in-law, today is our real newlywed, right?" ”

Isn't it a candle in a cave at night? Although he can't catch meat to eat, how can he grind some broth and drink it?

Zuo Ranjia blinked his eyes and struggled to get out of Zhou Gong, and hummed, the Chinese people are very complex animals, and thousands of years of things seem to be engraved in their bones, affecting generations of people.

After the establishment of the new Huaxia, the marriage law was promulgated accordingly, clearly stipulating that only men and women who received the certificate could be regarded as legal husband and wife, but the Chinese people still believed that the ceremony witnessed by parents, relatives and friends was the real marriage. It seems that moral restraint is more useful than law.

"Daughter-in-law, do you have anything to say to me?" Du Xuze couldn't sleep, and he didn't want Zuo Ranjia to sleep, the two of them should be excited together at this moment.

"Mr. Du, please give me more advice for the rest of my life," Zuo Ranjia chuckled, plucking up the courage to kiss his stubble chin.

Du Xuze's Adam's apple rolled up and down, he hugged Zuo Ranjia tightly, and secretly cursed, where is this fairy descending to earth, is it the reincarnation of a little goblin? He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Miss Zuo, please give me more advice for the rest of my life." ”

Zuo Ranjia's face darkened, what she was most taboo about was being called "Miss Zuo", wouldn't someone with an inaccurate tone shout "do"? What's more, she didn't have the surname Zuo originally.

"Brother Xuze, have I done my hukou?"

Du Xuze pursed his lower lip and asked uncertainly: "Daughter-in-law, did you agree to be with me now because of your household registration?" ”

Zuo Ranjia couldn't laugh or cry, "Brother Xuze, if I am purely for the sake of the household registration, can I be an innocent girl sleeping in the same bed with you?" ”

Du Xuze quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled, "I'm afraid of wronging you." Brother Xing has already done it and sent me a telegram, saying that the documents are on the way, and it is estimated that your household registration will be implemented before the year, and you can also receive a supply of food. ”

"Can I change my surname when I settle my household? I don't want to have the surname Zuo, is it okay to have your surname Du? ”

Du Xuze didn't ask much, he understood Zuo Ranjia's heart a little, on the one hand, he was thinking about her adoptive father and adoptive mother who wanted to sell her at a good price, and on the other hand, he was very picky about her biological parents who didn't know her own flesh and blood. If it weren't very sad, who would easily change the surname that had followed them for so long?

"Okay, as the saying goes, marry a chicken with a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, if you marry our Du family, you are the daughter-in-law of my Du family! In ancient times, you had to be named Du," Du Xuze patted her on the shoulder, and said with pity: "Daughter-in-law, I will love you in the future, and Qingzi, Yuanzi and Qiqi will love you, our family is doing well, better than anything else." ”

"Look, it's me who should say thank you," Zuo Ranjia was inexplicably moved by the distress in his tone, and hugged him with moist eyes.

"Let's not say thank you in the future, it's so rusty," he didn't feel anything when he told her, but she thanked him, and he felt a little embarrassed.

The two of you whispered one by one, and the sun outside gradually rose, blowing away the cold of the night.

On the 21st day of the lunar calendar, the weather was fine, and the north wind was not strong, although it was still cold, it was not as unbearable as the previous days. Du Xuze was wearing an autumn coat and pants, a white shirt and blue hairy shoulders, a black tweed suit, straight-leg pants of the same color, and his hair was slightly cleaned up by Zuo Ranjia's water, and the whole person restrained his anger, and the joy in his eyebrows and eyes melted the perseverance on his face, handsome and stylish, which made Zuo Ranjia stunned.

Seeing the obsession in the eyes of the little daughter-in-law, Du Xuze felt proud, and he coughed awkwardly, "I'll go to breakfast, you can clean it up, and the godmother will come over later." ”

Walking to the door, he couldn't help but smile evilly at Zuo Ranjia: "Ye knows that he is handsome, you will take a good look at it at night." ”

Zuo Ranjia raised her small fist and waved it at the air, this person is so angry, there is wood!

She took out the large bath tub, poured water into it, plugged in the door and moved the solar heater out, and took a milk bath, so that her hair was open in comfort. She squinted her eyes slightly, washed herself up and down, and then reluctantly came out and patted the body lotion.

Zuo Ranjia was more afraid of the cold, she took off the mask and put on a red cotton underwear suit, and then put on her body with fleece to keep warm, and then put on a shirt and burgundy wool shoulders and black straight-leg pants. The shirt is included in the pants, and the shoulders are slim and short, showing off the long legs.

Opening the door and emptying the bucket of water, she wiped her hair and sat down at the dresser.

The seventeen-year-old girl in the mirror has delicate and fair skin full of collagen, her eyebrows are like portraits of the deep pools in the suburbs of the distant mountains and green daisies in landscape paintings, clear and beautiful as if separated by a layer of fog, it is not real, the lips are pink and tender with a moist luster, and the cheeks have healthy peach blossom pollen.

She carefully patted the toner and applied the lotion to finish her skin care, just as Du Xuze came back from breakfast, and he stared at him for a while.

Du Xuze suddenly felt that he shouldn't be looking for a place to hold any wedding banquet, he was so reluctant to push such a beautiful daughter-in-law in front of everyone.

The babies had already gotten up, brushed their teeth and washed their faces, took care of themselves carefully, put on new clothes, and combed their hair with a comb, only Du Jinqi's hair was like a chicken nest waiting for Zuo Ranjia to help her comb it.

Breakfast consists of cucumbers, radishes, pickles, boiled eggs, thick and fragrant millet porridge, and brown and crispy oil cakes.

After eating, Zuo Ranjia took a comb to comb Du Jinqi's hair in the cubicle, and tied a first-class pigtail horizontally with red, orange, pink, and blue leather bands in the front, and tied a middle part of the hair below, with a red pom-pom, with her fair-skinned appearance, but also happy at the scene.

The little girl ran to the mirror and looked at it, looked left and right, touched the fluffy ball, and was pleasantly surprised.

"I see you buy a full-length mirror for Qiqi during the New Year and put it in her room, which is happier than how many candy and biscuits you give her." Zuo Ranjia sat on the stove, baking her half-dried hair jokingly.
