Chapter 119: Sweetness
The last time the Qian family said that they would wait for the grandfather and the old couple to come back, and told them about Yuanshuang, they went to the fat aunt's house to see the situation.
On the second day, the old couple returned home, and heard Qian talk about the new goal she was looking for for Chu Ping, Mrs. Yu felt good, but said that the last time, they should learn a lesson, this kind of thing is not in a hurry, Chu Ping has been waiting for so long than others, but it is not bad for ten days and half a month, it is better to follow Qian's plan first, first ask the two children to contact and see, and then say, so the matter of going to the fat aunt's house was delayed.
Qian cleaned up after breakfast early in the morning and came to Shen Luzhu: "I think let's go over early, and save yourself the delay in the business in your shop, it's almost the Qingming Festival, you are busy at this time, Chu Ping said that I am not in a hurry, but how can I really not be in a hurry, I am afraid that I will go late, and the good girl has already decided!"
Shen Luzhu had just cleaned up, took Qian's arm, and the two walked towards the fat aunt's house: "What Aunt Cousin said is that when you are an elder, you really don't have to worry about it, and besides, this shop is not inseparable from me for a moment, now Chu Yi doesn't have to make a coffin, and Xiuxiu and the third uncle help, even if I go out of the courtyard gate for a few days, I won't delay anything, by the way, can I tell my cousin about this today?"
Qian said with a smile: "I said, I said, the old lady specially told me before, saying that this time I should be steady, and I can come with Ah Ping's thoughts, I told him about the family's plans last night, looking at it like that, I am still quite satisfied with Yuanshuang!"
"That's a good thing, we're going to have a good day!"
The two came to the front of the fat aunt's yard as they spoke, and it happened that the fat aunt was cleaning the open space in front of her yard, and when she saw Shen Luzhu and the Qian family coming over, she thought that the two of them were going to pass by their house: "Yo, isn't this the little daughter-in-law of the Chu family and the sister-in-law of the Qian family? Where are you going?"
Qian smiled and stepped forward to greet him, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm here to ask for saliva to drink, do you want to give it?"
The fat aunt laughed when she heard this: "That's good, my family's water is so expensive, I let you come to the door to drink it, then you have to drink enough today, hahaha!"
Qian took two steps forward and said to the fat aunt affectionately: "Her fat aunt, don't joke with you, we really came to your house today, and I want to inquire about your family Yuanshuang with you, who is an aunt, that child's family has been given?"
The fat aunt obviously didn't expect this, and looked at Qian and Shen Luzhu with some surprise and asked, "Did you say it to your family Chu Ping?"
Qian nodded: "Yes, my own family has not yet been settled, how can I have the heart to help others Zhang Luo, besides, Yuan Shuang is such a good girl, I don't want her to enter other people's doors!"
The fat aunt waved her hand and explained, "Look at my brain, this is a good question, who else can you ask if you don't give it to your family Chu Ping!" Sister-in-law Qian, don't mind, come here, come to the house!"
When Qian and Shen Luzhu saw the fat aunt's attitude, they knew that Yuanshuang had not yet decided on someone, so they naturally went happily. A few people sat down in the hall of the fat aunt's house, and the fat aunt made hot tea for the two of them, and then sat down to talk well.
The fat aunt rubbed her hands and said bluntly: "Sister-in-law Qian, you are an open person, and my fat aunt is not the one who hides it, since you came to ask my family Yuanshuang today, then I will also say it directly, it is nothing whether it is successful or not, Yuanshuang has never decided on someone, but the situation is a little complicated."
Qian was also stunned when he heard this, but then stabilized his mind again, she still trusted the fat aunt's personality: "Then tell me about her fat aunt, don't worry, Lu Zhu and I are not the ones who love to go out and chew the root of the tongue, and there will not be half a sentence to spread out!"
The fat aunt waved her hand and said: "It's not a thing to say, Yuanshuang is the daughter of my sister's family, my sister doesn't know what's going on, there has been no movement since she became a kiss belly, Lang Zhong has also seen a lot, and they all said that there is no problem, and the decoction is not less drunk, but it has never been able to conceive, until it has been almost ten years since I got married, I finally became pregnant with Yuanshuang, my sister was so happy that she was looking forward to giving birth to a big fat boy, and it turned out to be a daughter, so she took it a little
I couldn't stand it, and before I got out of confinement, I began to worry about giving birth to a son again, so I was a little negligent about Yuanshuang since I was a child. But my brother-in-law is still very good to Yuanshuang, and treats her like a baby pimple, or she can't develop the temperament she has now."
Qian nodded: "When a woman is married, it is understandable that she is anxious about her son, but this is not something that can be done in a hurry!" But Yuanshuang's temperament is really likable, I just like what she likes, and so does Luzhu!"
"Yes, fat aunt, Sister Yuanshuang's temperament is so good, as soon as I saw her that day, I felt that I fell in love with her!"
"Later, my sister's stomach has not moved, and my sister is about to give up, and she is more concerned about Yuanshuang, it would have been good if it had been like this, but my sister suddenly became pregnant again five years ago, and I don't know where I found Lang Zhong and the master, and I said it was for the male doll, but I don't know if it was old, my sister's reaction was particularly big, not to mention, the fetus was still unstable, and there was a problem with seeing red at both ends in three days, and I don't know where the charlatan came from, and he actually told her that Yuanshuang's eight characters were not good, hindering the brother, That's it."
Qian frowned when he heard this: "Isn't this a cheat, what can it do with other people's children!"
"That's what I'm saying, everyone knows that it's a liar, but my sister is convinced of this, and it was even worse for Yuanshuang at that time, and it wasn't until the child was born successfully that the situation was alleviated. But who knew that before two years of coming out, Yuanshuang and her father suddenly fell seriously ill and died, my sister couldn't stand the blow, so she attributed all this to Yuanshuang, and remembered that the charlatan said that Yuanshuang was not good, and she had to drive the child out of the house, it was best for my aunt to come forward and take away Yuanshuang, and for the next three years, Yuanshuang was in my aunt's place, keeping filial piety for her father!"
"This is really too much, how can she be a mother and pick up her daughter!"
Shen Luzhu also nodded heavily on the side, he really didn't expect that Yuanshuang, who looked so cheerful and lively, would have such an encounter!
"This is not last winter, but my sister is still all focused on her son, and she doesn't pay attention to Yuanshuang's matter at all, my aunt just told me to discuss, and said to let Yuanshuang come to live with me, and by the way, I also help her look at each other, after all, she is already sixteen years old, and I can call the shots about her family, but this child has no help from her mother's family, and my sister is having a difficult child, and I am afraid that the man's family will avoid it."
Qian listened to the muttering for a long time, and didn't speak for a long time, and the fat aunt didn't have much of a surprise, before her aunt was at her mother's house, she didn't help Yuanshuang Zhang Luoxiang, but when people heard about Yuanshuang's situation, they would be more or less evasive and hesitant, or her aunt wouldn't have let her help look for it here, but her fat aunt could understand this situation, but she felt that she was blind to Yuanshuang's such a good daughter!
"You know her fat aunt, Lao Chu's family has always been a son, and the male babies of which generation are all lone seedlings......
As soon as the fat aunt heard Qian's words, she knew that she was afraid that this matter would not be able to be done again, in fact, she was even more different, and she was still very optimistic about Chu Ping, but this was not a forced matter, not to mention the situation of the Chu family, if their family minded, then forget it: "It's okay sister-in-law Qian, you should have concerns."
Shen Luzhu especially wanted to interject, in fact, giving birth to a boy and a girl has nothing to do with the child and his mother, it all depends on his father, but at this time she is really not good at interjecting.
Qian waved his hand and motioned for the fat aunt to listen to her finish speaking: "Her fat aunt, I want to say that there are few male babies in our family, but there is no lot of pain for female babies. I think that if this is suitable for our family with few boys, then marry a girl whose family is full of boys, should there be no him, how can it all depend on other people's daughters-in-law!"
When the fat aunt heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up again: "Sister-in-law Qian, do you mean ......?"
"I really like this child Yuanshuang, especially after knowing what happened to her, it's really not easy for this child to be so temperamental in that environment! Our family doesn't mind if we have the help of our mother's family, as long as people are better than anything? As for the difficult thing about her aunt giving birth, I don't think it has much to do with her, and my aunt is still there
gave birth to five sons, but I am still the only one Chu Ping!"
"Sister-in-law Qian! You're so right!"
Qian smiled at the fat aunt again: "Yuanshuang, I am satisfied, but I can't make the decision on such a big matter by myself, and I have to discuss it with the elders in the family again, but he fat aunt, don't worry, you know the behavior of my in-laws!"
"Yes! It should be!" The fat aunt responded with a smile.
After the Qian family went back, they told everyone in the family about Yuanshuang's situation, and the Chu family discussed it for a long time, and finally as Qian expected, Chu Yi's family affairs finally had eyebrows again, and the matchmaker invited by the Chu family boarded the courtyard gate of the fat aunt's house in a few days!
With the high cooperation of the two families, Chu Ping's family affairs are advancing little by little, and the news that the Chu family's coffin shop also sells copper coins to burn paper and paper ingots has also spread throughout the village with the gossip that everyone watched.
Seeing this situation, Wang was afraid that the paper money that had been finally made would be smashed in his hands, so he hurriedly re-set a cheaper price, trying to throw out this batch of paper money without a book first, and then say, it is better to earn a penny than to keep it in his hand.
The copper money in Shen Luzhu's shop burned paper for 30 wen and a knife, and the Wang family sold it for 20 wen and a knife, and Shen Luzhu's paper ingots were 5 yuan a piece, and the Wang family set three wen for a knife, so it was sold for two days, and the business of the coffin shop suddenly became prosperous.
Seeing that the copper coins burned paper and paper ingots were getting less and less, and the money box containing the copper plate was getting heavier and heavier, how could Wang refuse this huge temptation, and finally couldn't help but think of other ways to get paper money.
