Chapter 45: Self-Surrender
Shen Huarou and the He family didn't know what the Wei family was doing, so they came to propose marriage at this time, and the reason was because of the autumn banquet held by the Wei family.
Two days after Shen Huarou and their family went home last time, the Shen family was invited to the Wei family for a banquet.
During the banquet, it is inevitable to chat about the situation of the family, and the other is that each family looks at each other for their children.
Someone sold well in front of the Chang family, praised the Shen family all over the place, and when he arrived at He Yuanling, the son-in-law, he didn't have anything to boast about, and he barely praised him for being handsome, young and promising.
It was not without this kind of anger in the past, Chang smiled and nodded, this time she also had the intention to carry her as a little son-in-law.
Others thought that my little son-in-law was useless, and coaxed her with nice words on the surface, and watched her family's jokes behind her back.
said that their Shen family did not boast of being high, they looked down on their families, they didn't look down on the merchants, and they were picky, but in the end they chose a mud leg for their daughter.
Just taking advantage of this opportunity to gag their mouths, Chang told He Yuanling that he was doing business with his friends, and praised him for his young age and did not rely on the help of his family, but they all made it by themselves, and they made it very impressive.
The words were full of satisfaction with the little son-in-law, mentioning that the son-in-law accompanied his daughter back to her parents' house, and gave filial piety to the old father-in-law.
even revealed that he wanted to support his son-in-law, and anyone who listened to it could understand the Shen family's satisfaction with this son-in-law.
This is the case with the Chang family here, and the old man Shen over there also means this, that is, Shen Borong, who is now the head of the Shen family, also smiled in response to his father's words.
Even with and praised the two brothers of the He family, they all relied on their own efforts and did not rely on the family, and the He family was upright at the root.
In this way, the Wei family paid attention to He Shuhui, He Shuhui is still young, but he can settle down first, and then get married when he is old.
Take advantage of the fact that the He family has not yet gotten up to propose marriage, and you can also get a good reputation that does not cling to vanity.
I have to say that the Wei family will drill camps, and their family can think so long-term.
After the banquet, the Shen family didn't expect the Wei family to be like this, and they moved so fast.
However, the eldest brother of the He family had to think more when he learned that his sister reminded him not to sell grain, and he was preparing to find a suitable time to visit the He family in person.
Of course, he didn't think that there was any news from his sister, and guessed that He Yuanling heard something somewhere.
He Yuanling's caravan was running around, he should have heard something.
Or, the eldest son-in-law of the He family has just returned from the south, will it be possible?
It's just that there is no letter from the outsider, and I can't say for sure.
Shen Huarou didn't expect that her own mention would make her eldest brother think so much, and she had already told Shen Zheng to carefully and properly collect the grain.
She also planned to take advantage of the renovation of the mountain villa to build a hidden granary, and when it was really chaotic, nothing else would be as good as food.
In the evening, He Yuanling came back from the second brother, and to be precise, he was also driven back.
"Look at what time it is, let's go, your second sister-in-law is still waiting for me to eat."
He was very relieved that his younger brother came to him to discuss business, but he couldn't see it at all, and he had been talking to him in the study all afternoon, and he didn't plan to leave because he wanted to have dinner?
Whoever wants him to be an eyesore, even if it's his own brother.
He Yuanling came back with the proposal written by his second brother, planning to go to his daughter-in-law to ask for credit.
Although he didn't summarize it personally, he cheekily begged his second brother to write it.
When he came back, he didn't go directly to the main room, but slipped into the kitchen first.
"The third master has orders?"
"It's okay, busy with you, how's dinner going?"
Turning around the kitchen with his hands behind his back, reaching his neck to look into the smoking iron pot.
Others didn't know what he meant, but Magnolia did.
Invite him to a pot, remove the lid and show him, and say funny.
"Madame instructed the slave maid to cook the fish for you, do you want to ask if it is fragrant?"
"Xiang, it has to be your craftsmanship."
Satisfied, He Yuanling naturally stopped staying in the kitchen, turned around and went back to the main room.
Since it was ordered by his daughter-in-law, it's not angry, hehe......
When he came back, he almost hit 10,000 meters at the gate of the courtyard, and he was holding a dustpan with messy branches and leaves.
He stepped through the door and met the sight of his daughter-in-law.
He Yuanling recognized that the pot she pruned was one of the dowries she brought from her mother's family.
Her baby has more peonies than the baby, and he usually puts it on the window outside, and once he kindly helped to water it, and he complained without thanking him.
"Why are you willing to move out and cut it today? On weekdays, when I touch its leaves, you have to turn your face, why don't you feel distressed when you cut these and throw them away? ”
He Yuanling also wanted to say: You just can't see me touch it, and I'm not as good as yours in this pot of broken grass.
After hesitating for a moment, he still didn't say anything, it seemed that he had lowered his identity to compare with a pot of broken grass.
Shen Huarou told herself that she must be calm, knowing that he had a mouth and didn't have half a sentence to listen to, so why bother to worry about him?
So, she didn't look at He Yuanling anymore and continued to refine.
But it also knew that if he didn't reply, he would definitely say something else, and he still had to answer.
"This year's flowering period is almost over, pruning and fertilizing will be good for next year's flowering."
"Oh, I know this, it's like the harvest in the field is burned and turned over to ensure that the crops planted next year will grow well."
Everyone knows about farming, but they don't serve her as well.
Even if she is squeamish, the flowers she raises are also very squeamish.
Seeing that she couldn't finish for a while, He Yuanling moved a chair out and sat to watch her tinker.
From time to time, I have to point out, "You actually have too many branches, such as this branch, the main stem is not thick, and you still have a few branches, and they will not grow well when the time comes." ”
Shen Huarou looked at the place he pointed, it was indeed a bit as he said, but she was reluctant to cut it too bald, and she was afraid that she would lose money if she couldn't get new branches in the coming year.
"I've stayed like this for the past few years, and I've been driving well."
As a result, He Yuanling jumped up from the chair and came over and grabbed the scissors.
"You're absolutely right to listen to me, I can't fool you.
Get out of the way, and watch the third master cut it for you. ”
He Yuanling, who is in the countryside, knows a little, the key is that when he was a child, he saw too many orange trees in the yard built by his uncle, which was called bald, and as a result, did he grow a lot of new branches in the second year.
Come to think of it, it's all the same.
Shen Huarou, who was squeezed away by him, even if he didn't trust his skills very much, it was too late, he had already cut several branches in three or two clicks, and her heart was bleeding when she saw it.
He was also ashamed, "You just put your heart in your stomach and promise that it will be fine."
With a bitter face, I don't know that I'm cutting your flesh.
If you drive less next year, can you beat me? ”
No matter what he said, now Shen Huarou's mind was full of the withered appearance of this pot of peony that had been tossed to death by him in the past.
Why don't you kick him out again?
It's really not good, what about a fight?
