Chapter 174: Ruo'er is too hearty
After the Yun family asked, Wei Ruo didn't say anything, and Wei Qingwan answered first.
Wei Qingwan said a lot very seriously, and according to her understanding of the old uncle and old lady in Uncle Zhongyi's mansion, she put forward a lot of her own opinions.
"Tea can be increased, my grandfather likes to drink tea, and the price of tea this year is cheaper than in previous years; And the purple sand tea set that my grandfather liked, do you want to find a way to put a set in it? ”
Wei Qingwan also mentioned this because the situation in the family is indeed different this year, my father has been promoted to the sixth grade, if there are no things that can be handled as in previous years, I am afraid that it is a little too much.
Wei Qingwan knew that the situation in the mansion was not rich now, but she also knew the Yun family's thoughts, and as a daughter-in-law, she must not be stingy at this time.
Yun nodded: "I do have this intention. ”
Immediately afterwards, Wei Qingwan said: "But my daughter also knows that this year, because of the bad harvest in Zhuangzi, there are some problems in the income and expenditure of the house, and my daughter is willing to take out her own money to buy New Year's gifts for her grandparents." ”
Hearing this, the Yun clan was a little surprised and a little moved: "Wanwan, those are your selfish self." ”
Wei Qingwan replied firmly: "As a granddaughter, I should prepare some New Year's gifts for my grandparents to fulfill my filial piety. What's more, Wei Ruo's grandparents and parents don't have a loyal uncle, how can I be where I am now? All my things are the things of the Wei family. ”
"Wanwan, you have a heart." Yun couldn't help but look relieved.
"The mother is serious, this is what a daughter should do." Wei Qingwan's eyes were bright, her voice was soft, and her tone was sincere.
Yun was very satisfied with Wei Qingwan's answer, and then asked Wei Ruo: "What does Ruo'er think about the gift list for this New Year's gift?" ”
Wei Ruo was lazy and didn't want to think too much, so he just glanced at it casually and said, "It's good that mother makes a decision, and my mother must be more experienced than us in this regard." ”
Wei Ruo's can't be wrong, but it seems a little perfunctory.
So Yun said to Wei Ruo again: "Ruo'er, your grandparents still love you very much, we still can't go back to the capital for the Chinese New Year this year, this New Year's gift represents our hearts, you think about it again and help come up with ideas." ”
The Yun family does not require the eldest daughter to take out her own selfishness to buy New Year's gifts for her grandparents like Wanwan, but just wants her to help think about this problem seriously, after all, she will be in charge of the middle feed when she marries in the future, and the gifts exchanged by relatives during the New Year's holidays are all prepared by her, the housewife, and these things should be familiar as soon as possible.
Wei Ruo had already prepared: "Mother, when the nobles rewarded me with things before, I had already set aside gifts for my grandparents in advance, but because those things were fragile and difficult to transport, I thought that I would let them be brought by water next time when my family sent things to the capital." ”
As he spoke, he took out the list from his arms and gave it to the Yun family.
Wei Qingwan looked at the list handed over by Wei Ruo in surprise, she had already prepared?
Wei Ruo took Wei Qingwan's reaction into her eyes, and she could see that she was surprised and indignant.
This is not that she deliberately wants to compete with Wei Qingwan.
This gift for the old uncle and the old lady had been prepared when she received Chu Lan's reward, and she had planned to bring it with her when she gave gifts to the capital in the school captain's mansion.
Yun took Wei Ruo's list and looked at it, in addition to some porcelain tea sets rewarded by the Seven Princes, Wei Ruo also brought dried sweet potatoes, sweet potato chips, mushroom sauce and other foods that have recently become popular in Taizhou Mansion.
Although the price of these things is not expensive, it is a local specialty, and it is estimated that it has not been popularized in the capital at present.
Sending these can reflect the heart, but also have local characteristics, the most appropriate.
Yun's eyebrows were overjoyed: "Ruo'er is really too hearty. ”
If Wei Qingwan was willing to take out private money to buy New Year's gifts to make the Yun family feel gratified, then Wei Ruo's gift list made the Yun family surprised and delighted.
Wei Ruo said lightly: "It's nothing, my grandparents love me very much, and they have given me beautiful things several times, which is as it should be." ”
Wei Ruo had nothing to do with the Yun clan doing this, it was entirely because the two old men in the capital were not bad to her.
No matter what purpose the two old men had for their own purposes, they gave her the status of eldest daughter and gave her a few gifts, all of which were real.
"If you are filial, your grandparents will be very happy when they know about it." Yun said with a smile on his face.
After that, the Yun family discussed with Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan for a while the details of the gift list and the details of the purchase of New Year's goods in the house.
And Wei Qingwan's face lost the smile she had before, and the expression on her face was a little stiff when she answered several times.
###
On the second day, Wei Ruo went out again.
The small workshop she built on the vacant land in Zhuangzi has been completed, and today she will go over to inspect it.
On the way, Wei Ruo and Xiumei changed their appearances and dressed up as the last time they went to see Fan Chengxu.
Because when he went to inspect the newly built workshop today, he would deal with many outsiders, and Wei Ruo's current situation was not suitable to show his head to avoid being caught.
When they arrived in Zhuangzi, the two little girls who got on the bus turned into two ugly-looking little boys when they got off the bus.
Because he knew that Wei was coming, Steward Yu waited at the gate of Zhuangzi in advance, and when he saw the two little sons who got off the carriage, Steward Yu was stunned.
"Steward." Wei Ruo opened his mouth and called out to Steward Yu.
Hearing the familiar voice, Steward Yu reacted that the little boy in front of him was their current owner.
"Miss, why do you look like this?" Steward Yu asked.
"I met with a lot of workers today, and my daughter was very inconvenienced. I was also bothered by the rest of the housekeeper, and when I introduced myself to someone for a while, I was called Xu Gongzi. Wei Ruo said.
"Yes, yes, or miss...... Ah no, Childe has thought it through! ”
Immediately afterwards, Steward Yu took Wei Ruo and Xiumei to the place where Wei Ruo's small workshop was built in Zhuangzi.
Zhuangzi's original vacant land had five more houses made of yellow clay mixed with stones and straw, which was Wei Ruo's newly built workshop.
"Miss, these houses are built according to your requirements and design drawings." Yu Steward said.
According to Wei Ruo's request, something special was built inside each room.
There are large stoves, large shelves, half-sections of walls made of earth and stone, and some strange shapes, so I can't tell what they are used for a while.
Wei Ruo was very satisfied after inspecting it, this house was supervised by Uncle Xu, so she was very assured of the quality of the house.
Wei Ruo then asked Steward Yu: "How did I ask you to help me choose the people I selected?" ”
The last time she came, Wei Ruo asked Steward Yu to select a few reliable long-term workers from Zhuangzi who could work down-to-earth and arrange them to the newly built small workshop behind her.
