After lunch, Guan Wen's family will go back. [ If you are looking for material, go to me to read]

Liu's is still a cliché, chattering about letting Li Xindonu hurry up and conceive a child. She is a big mother and wants to add a younger brother or sister to her children, and it makes no sense that her daughter still has nothing.

Li Xin just nodded yes, and his attitude was as gentle as ever.

In Liu's eyes, it made her feel even more worried.

The husband and wife took Yang'er back, and Shanzi still made a fuss about going to play with his aunt and uncle, but was reprimanded by Zhang's extremely harshly.

In the end, there are still a few days left before the New Year, and he can't help but wander around.

Of course, Shanzi was very unhappy, and squirmed and wanted to sneak up and follow Li Xin while Zhang's was not paying attention, but Li Dalang grabbed the collar and couldn't move, so he could only stare at Li Dalang with angry eyes, and his mouth was pursed high.

But in the end, it's still settled.

When she returned to Lotus Village, Li Xin was busy, Ah Mei was the new bride, Xing'er was almost ready to give birth, Aunt Wei was old, and there was no woman in the family who could help her.

Guan Wen also had to go back to the town before the New Year to explain some things. And Li Xin also told him that although the shop has not yet opened, it will not be many days after leaving Zhang, and the next year the shop will rely on people like the shopkeeper and bookkeeper in the shop, take advantage of this time to give them more red envelopes, and then invite them to have a meal, encourage and encourage, and win people's hearts.

Even though many of the people in this shop are grateful to Guan Wen, only this superficial effort still has to be done. After all, it's just an exchange of interests.

Guan Wen agreed, and Li Xin took a few taels of silver for him to spare.

Before leaving, Guan Wen also asked Li Xin, and he would talk to his four brothers and sisters this time. Let the four siblings help her prepare.

Li Xin thought about it and felt that it was feasible, but still said to Guan Wen: "The fourth brother and sister are working in the Shen family at this time, if they can't leave, forget it." If you can walk away, call her back to help. I read*"

Guan Wen agreed. rode away from Honghuan.

Maybe it's been a long time since I've run wild. Hong Huan looked very excited, and galloped away with Guan Wen all the way, causing Erhei and Erhuang to chase after him silently, and the two dogs were particularly excited.

In addition to preparing for the New Year and getting married on the seventh day of the first lunar month, Li Xin did not forget to find Xing'er, learned from her what Li Ming told her, and briefly introduced the two gentlemen.

Xing'er frowned slightly, but instead of expressing her opinion first, she asked Li Xin: "Which gentleman does sister-in-law think is good?" ”

Li Xin smiled: "Don't ask me yet." If I tell you what I think, I will have an impression of your thoughts, and then you will not be able to judge very well. Li Xin said: "You just think about it yourself." Which gentleman do you think is good, I'll tell you what I think. ”

Xing'er smiled, thought for a while, and said to Li Xin: "In my opinion, these two gentlemen are very good, your brother is careful, and everything he is looking for is not far from the house, so this is not a big deal." If you want to choose Mr., I still think it's better to be older. ”

"Oh?" Xing'er was in line with her thoughts, and Li Xin couldn't help but laugh. "What's the point here?"

"I don't pay attention to it, I just think that the old man makes the child more awe-inspiring."

Xing'er laughed, explained to Li Xin and said, "Sister-in-law, you think, Mr. Qu is young. In fact, you can continue to take the test. But if you don't take the test, you must be a person who doesn't stick to it very much. He also said that he was proud of his talents. I think he may still be a little pompous and can't hold his breath. On the contrary, Mr. Fu, although he is old, he still has not lost the hope of the examiner, and this spirit of perseverance is quite admirable. ”

Xing'er paused, and then said: "I don't want Xiaokang to be famous in the world, or even to be an official or anything, I just want him to be able to read a few words and understand the truth of being a man." The old man tutors, I am more at ease. ”

Li Xin laughed, but thought in his heart that if this Mr. Fu was just pursuing fame and fortune, so he didn't give up, it would be a little disappointing.

After Xing'er finished speaking, she asked Li Xin, "What does sister-in-law mean?" ”

"I'm actually the same as you think, I think Mr. Fu is better. I read*"

Li Xin laughed and replied to Xing'er: "But my reasons are different from yours." ”

"What's the difference?" Xing'er asked hurriedly.

Mr. Qu...... It's still young and frivolous, the child is enlightened, and he was first exposed to the thoughts of Mr. Teaching, I'm afraid that he has too much resentment on weekdays, but he doesn't teach much in kind, which is not beneficial to Yang'er and Xiaokang. This is one of them. Second, although Mr. Fu may be buried in the pile of papers, his solid basic skills are there, and it is not a problem to lay a solid foundation for the two little babies. If you see that he is indeed a bit of a literati in the future, you can change Mr. Yang'er and Xiaokang. ”

Li Xin's eyes melted, and he said with a smile: "I don't want to be strict to become famous, how great it will be in the future, I just hope that he will grow up safely, healthily, and be able to be a man and do things, which is enough." ”

Xing'er hurriedly agreed, and said to Li Xin, for the sake of insurance, it is better to go to these two places first, contact Mr. Qu and Mr. Fu, and see what kind of two people they are. And then settle down.

However, Yang'er and Xiaokang's enrollment in the school is not in a hurry, no matter what, they still have to wait until Ah Mei gets married and Guan Wen Shop opens. So this matter is put aside for the time being.

Li Xin sent Yang'er and Xiaokang to try on new clothes, and after the Chinese New Year, adults and children had to wear new clothes.

The two little babies are dressed by Li Xin, the tailor-made clothes are very suitable, the fabric is also soft and comfortable, Yang'er and Xiaokang both smiled very sweetly.

Adult clothes don't have time to make, that is, the ready-to-wear they buy, although they are a little more expensive, but the style is indeed much more chic than what they do.

Lao Guan also put on new clothes, looked jubilant, and his spirits were getting better and better, and he specially asked Li Xin's sister how her dowry and marriage preparations were.

Li Xin replied to him one by one, asked Yang'er and Xiaokang to play with Lao Guan, and told them not to trouble Zuzu, but he went to Ah Mei's house.

Ah Mei's wedding dress was made by herself, and every stitch and thread condensed her hard work.

Ah Mei, who was sitting on the bed, looked particularly delicate and lovely in that fiery red, with a smile in her eyes and a flushed face, like a shy water lotus.

Li Xin pushed the door open, reluctant to take her eyes off her face.

"Sister is so beautiful." Li Xin sighed heartily.

Ah Mei blushed, put down the work in her hand and welcomed Li Xin in, and let Li Xin sit.

Because there is a fireplace installed in the house. The whole room seemed to be warm, not hot at all. As early as when the weather was cold and Li Xin couldn't stand it, Li Xin let the fireplace be burned, and he didn't feel that firewood was a waste.

Ah Mei asked, "Is there anything wrong with my sister-in-law?" ”

"It's nothing, let's see if you're ready."

If the Guan family wants to say that they are rich, they are actually much richer than ordinary farmers. But every month, the dividends and silver taels that Li Xin gets back from the Shen family are worth the income of many families for a year or even several years.

It's just that although Guan Wen didn't mention it, Li Xin also vaguely felt that he was not very happy to use his own silver, and even when he got the reward from the county magistrate, he wanted to give it all to himself to make up for the "shortfall" given by his side.

The accounts between husband and wife are too clear, which will inevitably affect the relationship between husband and wife. But if it's too vague, if it's pulled up, it's not easy to clean up.

But Guan Wen and Li Xin lived in such a way that they were neither clear nor vague. But everyone knows in their hearts that if it is about making money, it must be that Li Xin earns more than Guan Wen.

Talking about money hurts feelings.

Uncovering this, Li Xin looked at Ah Mei and asked softly: "You are doing all the clothes, shoes, and small objects all year round, and I haven't asked you yet, are they all done?" ”

Ah Mei nodded and said softly: "It's all done, mine, or Wei ...... His. In addition, I also made some resting for the fifth sister to see if she would be useful when she got married. ”

Li Xin bowed.

Ah Xiu doesn't know how to sew, and it makes sense for Ah Mei to help her do it. It's just that Feng Defa's side is not easy for Ah Mei to help, after all, it is the clothes that Feng Defa will wear in the future, and there is no reason for the sister-in-law to make underwear for her brother-in-law.

But if the clothes on Ah Xiu's side are well made, but the clothes on Feng Defa's side are rough, it will inevitably make the Feng family have opinions. So what Ah Mei said was to let Ah Xiu decide whether to use it when she got married.

Ah Mei is also a sensible big girl!

Speaking of this, Li Xin couldn't help but think that the night before the wedding, the female elders who were bound to marry the bride taught her the "Gift of Zhou Gong". This is a technical job, and there is no way to avoid it, Ah Mei's mother is not there, and it should be Li Xin's turn to be the eldest sister-in-law.

Although Li Xin made up her mind to ask Ah Mei's aunt Guan to carry this burden, she was still very curious in her heart, what kind of thing would the elders teach the younger ones like this?

Will she be able to sit in on the study when the time comes?

Thinking about it, Li Xin's face turned crimson, and when Ah Mei saw her blushing, she couldn't help but ask curiously: "Sister-in-law, is it too hot in the house?" ”

"Huh? Oh, no, no, that's just right. Li Xin waved his hand, and reached out to pick up the small sachet made by Ah Mei to see.

Rural men don't need this thing, this is also Ah Mei's ingenuity, when she saw this kind of thing that Wei Shusheng was wearing, she remembered to make it for him.

"You don't have to worry about the dowry, my sister-in-law has prepared it for you, and our small family is not so particular, just give some food and clothing, and then make some furniture, attach a few new quilts, and it's almost the same."

Ah Mei nodded hurriedly and thanked Li Xin.

Li Xin waved his hand and smiled: "You don't have to thank me for this, I promised to let your sisters marry in style, and I will definitely not break my promise." It's just that after getting married, it's not your mother's life in the end, and you have to run everything by yourself. ”

Ah Mei sat up solemnly, nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I understand." ”rq
