Chinese New Year's Eve, the people of the Ming rich family also came, Pearl and Xiao Qian, the two pregnant women don't have to do anything at all, there are four girls in the kitchen, Shen, Wang and Mingzhen'er, Mingde is back from vacation, and now he is directly with Mingqian, and Mingxin of his uncle's family, also studying in the county, are sixteen, and are also very motivated, smarter than Mingde, and the grades are better than Mingde, in Mingqian's words, it is about the same level as Liu Gui, but Liu Gui is now going to study in the academy, and his grades have steadily improved, If Mingxin continues to study at the private school in the prefecture, there will be very limited room for growth.

Everyone's faces were beaming during the New Year, except for Shen. Marrying Wang Daya can be regarded as hollowing out the Wang family and Feng's family foundations, Pearl thought that she should sell a pair of embroidered pictures to make money, otherwise there would be no income for so long, and Wang's face would not look good.

Pearl embroidered a total of three large embroidery pictures for such a long time, four small interstitial screens, Pearl asked Liu Huang to send a bamboo and stone picture screen to Zhuozhou Liu shopkeeper, and when Liu Huang came back, he brought back 3,500 taels of silver to the pearl, this price is good, the people of the Ming family knew that Pearl sent people to sell embroidery pictures, and when Liu Huang came back, he brought a lot of jujubes, walnuts, black sesame, bean paste and three bags of glutinous rice, five bags of white noodles, fifty catties of sugar, a large bucket of butter, and two hundred catties of milk frozen into ice lumps. There are also a lot of frozen prawns, oysters, crabs and other seafood, which pearls plan to use as snacks, visiting relatives and friends during the New Year, dim sum is a must-have gift, and sugar is also one of the valuable gifts. The dim sum in the city is definitely not better than the pearl dim sum, and there is more variety.

Pearl knew that the family's money was tight now, and Pearl sent fifty taels of silver to Feng this time, saying that it was embroidered, and some of the remaining pearls were to be kept for the expenses of Mingde's school in the coming year and Mingqian's entanglement in the capital. Feng and Wang didn't say anything, it was good to be able to give them fifty taels.

Pearl heard that she would marry Wang Daya on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and she was disgusted and anxious, but she had to accept the reality, Pearl thought in her heart. Once Ming Qian has an outside heart, he must resolutely reconcile with him.

When the things were complete, Pearl took the girls to make snacks and walnut cakes. Egg tarts, butter shortbread, cakes and more. Pearl made cheese from all the milk, and made cakes and bread from cheese. Now the whole Ming family is in love with cheese and prefers cakes made of pearls. The Ming family's dim sum is so popular. So that some people come to ask for it, all for the children to eat, of course, people will not eat you in vain, will give pearl eggs, duck eggs or hens or something,

On the thirtieth day, Pearl's oven does not bake dim sum, and specializes in roasting chicken and fish. On this day, the meals of the Ming family were very rich, and everyone ate very happily. Except, of course, for Shen Shi's elongated face. Everyone was happy.

On the dinner table, there are sauced beef, grilled chicken and grilled fish, as well as cold dishes, mixed cucumbers, fried bean sprouts, stir-fried peppers with heart-protecting meat, braised prawns in oil, fat sausages, sweet and sour pork ribs, and three fresh. cumin beef and seafood soup, etc. Good food for adults and children.

Pearl doesn't say a word of nonsense to the people of the Ming family now, let alone take the initiative to talk to the people of the Ming family, so she is really too lazy to pay attention to this family.

Pearls rarely come out now, and children are not allowed to send them to the front yard. The people of the Ming family also knew very well that Pearl was dissatisfied, and they were also at a loss, so they could only stare dryly.

After the New Year, Ming Qian began to be busy, taking Qiao Zhu and Liu Huang out in a carriage to pay New Year's greetings. Mainly his teachers and classmates. Pearl prepared two rulers for the elderly to Zhang's father, that is, the father's father of his second brother and sister, two boxes of self-made snacks, and two jars of good wine. Bacon and sausages. The pearl also put a purse for Ming Qian, which was divided into two layers, one layer put ten gold nudes, each weighing eight points, and a layer of twenty silver nude, which also weighed eight points. Ten purses were prepared for the gift, one with two eight-cent silver nudes, one with a gold nude and one silver nude, all of which were five-cent. Purses are all pearl crafts.

The gift to Mr. Shuyuan is heavier, in addition to snacks and good wine, I also prepared a set of Go for one of the gentlemen, which is Yunzi Go in the space, which is a rare good thing for people who love chess, and it feels very good. Then there are two pieces of silk for each gentleman, both of which are brocade brocades, and the color is solemn and elegant, which is very suitable for making robes.

Pearl paused embroidery, stole into the space to take the tweed material for her husband to make clothes, spring is very important, no patterns on the clothes, no interlayer, pearl can only use thick satin to make underwear for the husband, tweed robes made six, all of them are tweed, made with a sewing machine in the space, saving a lot of time, of course, can not all use tweed, pearl rash and find a thick fabric in the space to make a robe, the robe is embroidered with ornamentation, this material is very heavy, warm, and will not come out of the pleats, this is called low-key luxury.

There are also four pairs of shoes pearls, as well as a pair of boots, a pair of sheepskin shoes, and you can bring beef and grilled fish to eat, as well as fried rice, as long as the water is boiled, you can eat.

The weather is still so cold, fortunately Pearl is prepared, there is a kang burning in his house, there is a stove on the ground, and there is a good bamboo charcoal in it, and there is a big iron cover outside the stove, which is to prevent children from touching. In this way, it was much easier for Pearl to embroider and write in the house with the four girls.

Pearl doesn't go out, but the people of the Ming family are very busy, Ming Qian and Mingde are not involved, they have to study, but others have to be busy, Pearl directly picks the child, and does not send anyone to help, there is still a pig's amount of pork left in the family, and they are enough to make a banquet, but there is no Pearl Zhang Luo, if you want to do it well, I'm afraid it will not be so easy.

On the fifth day of the first month, there were people from the village who came to help, and when they saw that Mingqian and his family did not appear, they also understood that this wedding was not blessed by Mingqian and his wife. Shen's face is also ugly, Wang's wants to save money, Feng's is old, and he can't do anything if he wants to.

The people in the village who saw the situation clearly did not come the next day, and the only ones who really came to help were three or five kittens. On the day of marriage, the bridegroom wore a decent satin robe with a big red flower. Shen also wore a maroon brocade skirt, with a silver hairpin on her head and silver earrings on her ears, which Feng gave her.

The pearl was closed for guests on this day, and if she didn't come out with the girl, she said that she was raising a fetus. Qingfeng went out to investigate, and came back to report to Pearl, saying that there were not many guests who came, and the gift money was also small. Everyone said that the food was not good and that there was not enough oil and water. The red dress worn by the bride turned out to be old, with a silver hairpin on her headdress, and the dowry was only five taels of silver.

Later, Minghe came to find the second brother and the third brother to go out to help greet the guests, Mingqian had no choice but to follow, and came back after eating there, with the smell of wine on his body, he saw that the pearl was eating wontons, and he had to eat a bowl, Mingyue hurriedly went out to do it, and Mingqian did not forget to tell Mingyue to cook more.

"What's going on? Didn't you eat in front of you? ”

"Humph! It's no wonder you can eat it! The people of the second Wang family are really not good, where is there a maiden guest who is so unsophisticated, he actually grabs meat to eat, eats one table after another, and takes away a lot of meat before leaving. I'm ashamed to sit on the side. Ming Qian was angry, he also followed the busy work, went to the kitchen to chase vegetables, greet guests, arrange their seats, busy enough, thinking in his heart, or his daughter-in-law is capable, her means of holding a banquet are far from being able to do it.

Feng and Wang both came to call Pearl over, but they were both rejected by Pearl, and they had more than four months of belly, but they couldn't do this job, even if they were capable.

When Mingqian finished eating, the couple walked around the courtyard, both of them were dressed very thickly, pearls were draped in fox fur, with hoods, and Mingqian also wore a brocade fur cloak.

Pearl heard the noise outside the courtyard and the laughter of people, Pearl looked at Ming Qian and said, "The eldest brother is a groom again, so he is naturally happy." Grandparents and parents all feel that there is hope for holding grandchildren, but what about sister-in-law and two children? At this moment, how much pain is in my heart? ”

Mingqian hugged Pearl tightly, "I won't let you and the child go through this. (To be continued.) )
