Chapter VI Entertainment
Soon, Pearl met up with her son and the village chief, and first went to the grain store to load food and other things, and Pearl took the opportunity to put cosmetics and soap, shower gel, shampoo, etc. There are also hand creams, hydrating lotions. There are also rock sugar, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, candles, a lot of tea leaves, and thirteen incense that Pearl took out of the space. There were also a few baskets of fruit. Pearl also took out a lot of pastries from the space that had been saved from previous lives. Packed in a cardboard box.
After that, I went to the fabric shop and put all my fabrics in the car. This time, Zhou Xin told Pearl that this time, they would have two hundred and forty-five taels of silver! Pearl smiled at him. After that, I went to the furniture store and bought a large embroidery frame, as well as two slightly smaller embroidery frames for four. There are also more than a hundred colors of embroidery thread, and pearls are bought a lot. Then there is charcoal, although there is a kang and a fire wall in the house, now there is charcoal, and the house can be warmer.
After buying things, they found a restaurant near the place where the carriage was stored, and Pearl let everyone in, and then asked Zhou Xin to watch the car first, and after eating early, he went to return Zhou Xin back.
The men have walked such a long way in such weather, it is indeed hard, and the pearls can't be stingy, so that the shopkeeper's sheep soup and snow-white steamed buns are enough to eat, and they also ordered roast chicken, steamed fish, shrimp and egg custard. There is also a cold dish. Good wine for everyone. When Zhou Deng was full, he went to change Zhou Xinlai. I've eaten a lot of pearls, and I'm still worried about buying things. It's really bad at home these days.
Pearl went out for a walk and brought back a cage of hens. It's all in the space that can lay eggs. And a basket of a hundred eggs. The ready-made roast chicken tasted good, so I bought ten of them, and bought three hundred duck eggs, and put them under a large basket that I carried behind my back. There are also some bits and pieces, eight sets of comb grates, ten sets of four treasures of the study, and several large bundles of rice paper. There are also teapots and bowls. Have people all drop off where they parked.
After eating and drinking, everyone began to set off, and Pearl bought a lot of pies and poured a lot of hot water. Wait for the road to eat. It wasn't until it was dark for a long time. It was past eight o'clock in the evening before I arrived at home. The Zhou family set up a few torches and put all the things they bought from these pearls in place.
The grain was sent to the warehouse, and the cloth and cotton were delivered directly to the pearl's room. Other snacks, dried fruits, seaweed, kelp, eggs, and duck eggs are all stored in a small warehouse. Pearl also took the opportunity to put some fruit and candy in the space. There are also excellent beef jerky, cured meats, bacons, sausages, and sausages left over from the previous life. Then sprinkle a layer of rat poison around the perimeter. This rat poison is very powerful. One infects the other, and soon the entire village will be wiped out of the rats. The contents of this warehouse, the pearl is locked.
There were a lot of packages in Pearl's room. There were also many pieces of cloth, all wrapped in coarse cloth. The embroidery frame was also placed in the pearl house. The kang cabinet has been moved to the pearl room yesterday, the pearl opened the cabinet, put the gold box inside, but the silver ticket is too valuable, put it in the space, the gold in the box only put a gold ingot of fifty taels, and the others have been replaced with fifty taels of silver ingots. I found the box where I originally put the head flower, and put four pairs of silver bracelets, four pairs of multi-color tourmaline bracelets, and four pairs of crystal and diamond hair combs. The crystal combs are all modern, gilt copper, and come in red, blue, green and multicolored pieces. Now that my daughter is older, she always needs some jewelry. After thinking about it, I felt that it was not enough, so I took out four pairs of crystal earrings, some of which were butterflies, some were flower shapes, and there were also phoenixes and peacock shapes, and at least one had to be inlaid on the neck, and I found four very delicate, but not very heavy collars, hairpins inlaid with treasures, or with tassels, which were very beautiful. There are so many things, it's hard to put them together. Pearl pulled out four boxes from space. Put the collar, earrings, head flowers, and silver bracelets inside. There are also bracelets for tourmaline. My daughter's family still has jewelry and silver, and her heart will be steady. Therefore, in the box, the pearl placed a gold silk inlaid treasure hairpin in each box. A gold silk hairpin, a pair of jasper bracelets, a pearl necklace, and each person also put two eight-point gold nudes and two eight-point silver nudes in their boxes.
Look at the package given by Wang Sanpo, the pearl took it and opened it, there were four pieces of makeup satin, which were purple, jujube, indigo and dark brown, and the patterns on it were not bad. Underneath the fabric, there are also a few pieces of brightly colored silk. A few pieces of satin. I think I know that I have four daughters.
Pearl put the cloth on the outside. In addition to the muslin cloth that was bought, there were also four pieces of silk, two of which were forged, one of which was red and one of which was made of goose-yellow magnolia flowers, and one of which was made of red and butterflies. One blue, one dark green satin. These are all usable.
Now it is this time, Zheng, Meng and the four girls are busy cooking for everyone, and torches are set up outside the yard and start killing pigs. There were a lot of people in the yard.
Pearl came to Zhou Ze's house, he was leaning against the wall alone, watching the people outside busy, Pearl sat on the kang, he saw Pearl back, he was very happy, and said, "This time the luck is really good!" The third child's marriage can be done right away, right? ”
"I got a total of two hundred and forty-five taels from selling wild boars and deer, and that's not the most important thing. I also got more than 50 taels of embroidery for the sale, and the most important thing was that I got two kinds of good ginseng, a total of this number. "The pearl gave Zhou Ze a pen, a finger,
"A thousand taels?"
"Yes, happy, right? Now you can rest assured, you have the money to take medicine, the third child's marriage can also be done, and the dowry of the four girls, you don't have to worry. Pearl said with a smile.
Zhou Ze looked at the pearl, sighed, and took out a small linen cloth from a gap in his kang, in which was a very small folded piece of paper, and when he opened it, it was a silver ticket. Zhou Ze gave the silver ticket to Pearl. Pearl took the silver ticket and looked at it, two hundred taels, "Didn't you say that you would lose money for business?" ”
"Take out this money and give me medicine for the funeral, what else is left? If I am gone, and you don't have any money by your side, I'm afraid you won't have a good time in the future! Zhou Ze said sadly,
Pearl was a little sour and said, "So you don't see a doctor and leave the silver for me to care for?" ”
"I know that I can't get better from this disease, but others are easy to say, but you can't live without money. The Boss ...... Alas! Zhou Ze's mood was even worse,
Pearl understood Zhou Ze's distress, and felt very uncomfortable in her heart, so she talked to Zhou Ze about family life, "I left two heads of pork, just to give a point to the people who came to help, this time I bought a lot of cloth back, I cut out a few rulers, and then sent one of them back." What do you think? ”
Zhou Ze said, "Yes, when you have dinner later, you tell the second daughter-in-law to put more meat, don't be stingy." ”
"I'll look at it later, by the way, the medicine around you must be put away, I see the boss is thinking about it! This time he was able to sell it for money, and he was afraid that he would have to toss. ”
"I know, I won't give it to him. I'll let Wei Ji keep it! ”
Pearl felt very good, and said, "I think, this second daughter-in-law, should be rewarded, these years, although only one daughter was born, but that is your own grandson, besides, Zheng's sister-in-law is leisurely, it is rare for Meng Shi not to care." The second child doesn't care. Among this son, I like the second daughter the most, and among the daughter-in-law, I like the second daughter-in-law the most, and I will be old in the future, and I will follow the second daughter-in-law. You can rest assured. Although my grandson is also my blood, I still like my granddaughter, and if I am not too busy, I really want to put my child in front of me. ”
"You can do whatever you want, I can trust it."
"I'm afraid that the old family's noise will make you worry. Now if I don't take down the eldest and the two, I will have a hard time in the future, and several younger brothers and sisters will have to be affected by him. If the seeds are not good, you can't produce good bamboo. Pearl said,
Hearing Pearl's words, Zhou Ze's heart was very warm, and he felt that his adopted son and grandson were pitiful, but since the old wife already had an idea, it was better to forget it.
That night, it was very late before the banquet was dismissed, and Pearl was also busy, and together with Meng Shi, he cleaned up the pigs, used a lot of salt and coarse noodles, and cleaned up very cleanly, and the two big stoves in the kitchen were boiled, one boiled in the water, and the other boiled pork. The water is boiled, the pig's head is also cooked, because a lot of seasonings have been put in, the taste is naturally not ordinary, the pearl let Meng take a bag of white noodles, a bag of thick noodles, and add half a bag of cornmeal, find the largest pot, and noodles, pearls added yeast powder, fermented very well. Pearl asked the women of the village who Meng had come to help to carry the steamed buns next door to steam the steamed buns, and these strong laborers might have eaten them. This is a total of four large basins. Although the steamed steamed buns are not completely white, they are sweet, soft enough, large and sufficient. When the meal was served, a large pot of steamed buns was served, and everyone divided into four, and then a large pot was brought out, and there were seven large pots of steamed buns in the kitchen, all of which were hot in the pot! The crowd was even more happy.
Cooking pigs in the water is all done by pearls, fat sausages, liver tips, and sausages filled with meat and eggs. It's not delicious. Those that are cooked meat, with sauerkraut added, taste even better.
There are many things, and Pearl asked Aunt Wang next door to divide the pork, and then asked Meng to put the dishes in a bowl, plus a ruler, five steamed buns, and send them to these people one by one. This ruler is the red satin, and the pearl was bought from the cloth house. Cut out a few pieces, make a ruler and send them to them. Especially the one for the village chief's family, the pearl was sent by Meng Shi personally, and there was also an extra piece of satin ruler, which was dark purple, and it was a heavy gift to them.
When everyone left, Pearl took the people who came to help to eat, and there were so many steamed buns left, so that everyone could eat them openly, and before leaving, they also shared the rest of the meals and steamed buns with everyone, not to mention how ugly Zheng's face was. The pearls were not picked, and the women who helped with the work were even more diligent, and quickly washed the borrowed dishes and pots, put them aside, and waited for them to be sent back tomorrow.
The four girls didn't come out, Pearl said, don't show up if you don't marry your daughter, all the work is assigned to them, and let the four of them make quilts. A few girls have made three of them. Seeing that the pearl was back, he put it aside. Pulling Pearl to talk, he asked what he brought to them, what dowry he gave to his third sister-in-law, Pearl was afraid to show them, so don't sleep tonight. So they were all sent back.
It was Aunt Wang who was the matchmaker for the third child, and Pearl had taken the opportunity to tell her today, and tomorrow Pearl would bring some snacks to her, and let him go to Zhang's house in the neighboring village to talk about the situation and see if he could get married in advance. You can wait for two years for a round house. (To be continued.) )
