Pearl said that she was going to help her younger sister and her second sister and third sister cook, but she was stopped by Fang's hand, "You are going to cook with this dress, but it's a waste, I'll go, I'll change your two sisters back, you sisters can talk well." ”

Pearl looked at her clothes, this dark green gown embroidered with white camellias, it was silk, it was already the oldest, it was still the material given by the old woman last year, she made it herself, she wore it for a year, and the past ones were distributed to the little girl.

"I'll make cloth for myself when I turn around." The jade bracelet on his hand is not easy to wear.

Fang smiled and said okay, just about to go out, he turned back to his daughter and asked, "The gift you gave them is too heavy." ”

Pearl smiled and said, "The eldest daughter-in-law and eldest grandson of our family, of course we can't give less." Fang Shi said with a calm face,

"It's too precious, when Zhao entered the door, he gave her a silver hairpin, which was only eight points. Besides, it's hard to say if he can wear the fabric for my eldest grandson! With that, he went out.

Pearl stayed, sat on the side of the kang, and asked Liu Tongzhu, "Dad, my mother doesn't like my brother and sister?" ”

"Nothing. It's all the fault of poverty, tell your brother that you can't be too picky, Zhao's everything is good, but his mother's family is poor, and if he has something, he will move to his mother's house. He is not very generous. ”

I see! Thinking of this, Pearl changed the subject, "Dad, how is our land?" Is it enough to eat? ”

"Our home is good! It stands to reason that you saved it. Don't let your hands go too loose, how much is too much? I'll have to prepare a dowry in the future! Liu Tonghammer said this intimately,

The two of them talked about the relatives of the second brother Liu Gui, saying that his husband had a daughter, and the two families were optimistic, and the date was set, so they sent a dowry. Ten taels of silver were prepared at home, but obviously the other party was a little unhappy, so he delayed it. There were still ten taels of silver, which were intended to be redeemed for the pearl. Even if the pearl is not used, it has to be kept for the second girl! The second girl is also older.

Looking at Liu Tongzhu's face, he was not very happy, which made Pearl feel that his father didn't seem to be satisfied with the other party's in-laws, but he didn't ask. It didn't take long for the second girl and the third girl to come in, and the second girl was a little older, looked at the pearl and said,

"Sister, let us talk to you."

"Okay, let's go, let's go to my sister's room and see what good things my sister has prepared for you."

The two sisters were dragged away by Pearl. The thing given to the two sisters is on the kang, the second and third girls saw such a thick and bright color cloth, and immediately smiled, and when they saw such a big and bright hairpin, they were even more excited.

"Eldest sister, is this for me?" Sanniu couldn't believe it, she had been wearing her second sister's old clothes since she was a child.

"Yes! By the way, eldest sister, there are still a few clothes, do you like it or not. "It's all given by the girls, and the materials are all good, but the embroidered flowers are not very exquisite, but they are definitely better than the two sisters.

Open the kang kitchen, take out a package from it, this was originally picked out for my sister, and handed it directly to two people, Sanniu opened it and looked, there are four pieces! It's all good material that she hasn't seen, the second girl is already excited and doesn't know what to say, she's older, and she's also anxious about marriage, with these things, it's also decent, and she said, "I think this material is better than the cloth village in the town!" ”

"It's good to like it, but the embroidered flowers are not very good."

"Isn't that good? I can't embroider it. The third girl spoke louder for the first time,

Pearl smiled and said, "Sister will teach you later." ”

"Good. But the eldest sister should hurry up and teach the second sister! After speaking, he lowered his head shyly,

The second girl glared at her.

The clothes that Pearl brought back were just for the second girl, but the clothes for the third girl were big and fat, and the clothes for the second girl were also fat, and Pearl looked at the second girl's shriveled figure and was a little worried. But thinking that there is still time, there is no hurry. Pulling the two younger sisters and starting to change clothes.

The three sisters are discussing how to change their clothes! I heard Fang Clan shouting at the door that they were eating. The three of them came out happily, and the three girls also wore an orange jacket, some big and a little fat, but the little girl loved beauty and put it on without changing. The second girl wore a pink-purple skirt, and the hair of the two people was pulled back again, and the second girl combed a double bun and brought two blue silk flowers. Sanniu combed her double snails and inserted two pink silk flowers.

"Oh, the second girl and the third girl are dressed up like this, it's really good-looking." Fang's first one said, Liu Tonghammer is also a little bit, it seems that the three girls are also good-looking.

Liu Hai also smiled and said, "It's good-looking, and the three girls are about to be able to talk about others." ”

Sanniu blushed, hid behind Fang's, and was pulled back by Fang's to sit down,

"The second aunt and the third aunt are so good-looking, and the eldest aunt is the best-looking." The little grandson Liu Qiang said loudly, and the pearls he said laughed,

Zhao was on the side, her face was a little ugly, and Pearl didn't know what she was for.

On the dinner table, a pot of stewed chicken, cold cabbage, and scrambled eggs, the rice was made with the rice brought back by the pearl, which was very fragrant, and the pearl also ate a bowl. The happiest person to eat is still the little nephew Liu Qiang. It's just that Pearl found a problem, a chicken stewed, why didn't you see the thighs?

"Pearls! After eating, let's go to your grandparents and great-grandfather's! Otherwise, you'll have to pick and choose. If we stew chicken, we have to send the chicken thighs to your grandparents. Fang said,

Pearl was stunned, after coming back for so long, why have you never heard that there are grandparents and grandparents? Don't think about it, the relationship is average.

Pearl nodded, then turned her head sideways and asked Fang, "What should I send?" ”

"Give me those two mouthfuls of fabric and send them to them! It's a matter of knowing it. ”

Pearl's heart sank and she said, "No, I still have it there." By the way, who else in their family, what can they send if they don't use it? ”

Liu Tongzhu took over and said, "Your uncle's family, as well as your little aunt Sister Yue, are two years younger than you!" Your uncle's family has a son who is sixteen years old, named Liu An, and his health is not very good. There is also a girl named Qiaogu, fourteen, a few days younger than the third girl. ”

"Okay, I see."

When I returned to my room, I filled a few purses from the kang kitchen, and then I took the dim sum box out. Fang Shi also took a few pieces of fabric, all of which were brought up by the material that Pearl had given her. Fang Shi saw that Pearl had taken a few purses, grabbed them, and saw that there were silver nudes inside, and he was not happy.

"You kid, you stupid! It's good to give a ten-wentie-wentie-went, and also, your clothes are ......" Fang's meaning is best to pretend to be poor, but Liu Tongzhu, who followed behind him, said,

"Thirty copper coins will do. The money was taken back. You don't need a purse, just take a red paper bag. These clothes! Just wear it! The pearl is also going to talk about other people, but after all, it is older, and it is good to let you know that the dowry is rich. ”

Fang's obviously agreed, the second and third girls were all dressed in new clothes, and after listening to their father's words at this time, they didn't know what to do, so they pulled the clothes on their bodies, but they were a little reluctant. Fang Shi looked at the second and third girls and said,

"Wear it too! Let's go! ”

Pearl looked back at Zhao and saw that she was still wearing her original coarse cloth clothes, so she went back to the house, found one for her, and gave her a flower.

"Brother and sister, let's put it on! Several of our sisters have new clothes to wear, and it is not good for people to say that our family treats our daughter-in-law harshly. Pearl said with a smile,

When Fang saw Pearl enter the house, he actually took clothes for his daughter-in-law, and then looked at Zhao's happy face, and it was not easy to stop him, so he said, "Let's put it on!" What your eldest sister gave is all good things, don't exchange them for money. ”

Zhao's face turned red, and his bangs were also a little sneering, and he said to Zhao, "Go and change it, comb your hair well, and go over there!" ”

Zhao handed Qiangzi to Liu Hai and went into the room by himself, Qiangzi was a strong boy, very honest, and he was not honest in his father's arms, and he grabbed the pearl on his body. Qiangzi was playing in the yard by himself, his hands were full of dirt, and Pearl took his own handkerchief, and was about to wipe it for Qiangzi, but was pushed away by Fang's family.

"Your handkerchief is a waste, use mine." After Fang finished speaking, he wiped it for his grandson.

Pearl looked at his handkerchief, it was indeed too delicate, and after thinking about it, he put it in his sleeve. I thought in my heart that I would live in a farmhouse in the future, but I couldn't do the same as when I was in the Hou Mansion. However, in terms of eating, Pearl feels that it is still necessary to improve, looking at the dishes on the faces of the family, I don't know how much suffering has been suffered over the years, in short, no one is strong. Especially the two younger sisters, the second girl is about to get married, but her growth is stunted, and the third girl has yellow hair, which is obviously malnourished. There are even three chickens in the house.

When Zhao entered the house, Pearl pulled the second and third girls and asked some things about grandpa and grandparents in a low voice. The second girl glanced at Fang's before whispering to Pearl,

"The first few years of our family were not good, and at that time, grandpa Tai still helped, and then Liu An fell ill once, and grandpa Tai handed over all the family funds to save his life. But...... After that, I didn't think my grandfather's life was very easy. ”

Pearl frowned, but it was understandable that even if it was a child, it was for money, so after thinking about it, she asked again, "Let's ...... What is the relationship between my uncle's family? ”

Hearing Pearl's words, the third girl looked at her in horror, and the second girl also looked at her father and mother, and saw that they were busy packing pastries, and said in a low voice, "It was my uncle who sold you back then, and the money from the sale was also used to buy medicine for Liu An." Therefore, our family is not very good with my uncle's family, I don't know if the eldest sister still remembers, and grandma is not our own grandmother, only the uncle and sister-in-law are her own children. ”

When Pearl heard this, she really didn't know what to think, but she was glad that her parents were not ruthless, and she was also worried that her uncle's family would be a scourge in the future.

"What disease does Liu An have?"

"The disease in the womb, it is a pile of money to live so much."

"What's wrong?"

"It's always painful, and I run out of gas at every turn." The second girl said this, paused, as if remembering something, and whispered, "The mouth is purple, but it's scary." ”
