Chapter 116: Marrying a Han, Dressing and Eating
The pearl is not big, round and full, smooth and translucent, and is worth dozens of taels of silver.
A little girl from the countryside who has never met, Mrs. Sun's hands are big enough.
Lilac said secretly, when the eldest brother goes to Jiaozhou, he will give Sun Shen a string of honey fat incense bracelets. The only thing I can get my hands on now is this gift.
Lilac bala pulls pearls, "Wear them on colored bracelets and sell them for money." ”
Ding Zhuang frowned and said, "What a little money fan, keep such a good thing for you to make jewelry, and give your mother a few." ”
He took out two rulers from the basket, "The big knife pleases Master Sun, and the second master of Qian and Mrs. Qian are also happy." Mrs. Qian went to the best embroidery workshop in Jiaozhou to buy it for Xiangxiang and let you make clothes. ”
One piece of pure azure fabric, one piece of rose jacquard fabric. Looking at the sparkling light, the cloves don't know the goods.
Lilac said again, "Such a good material, make a plate buckle and sell it." ”
Ding Zhuang's face twisted into a heap, "When did my granddaughter become a money fan." Aunt Qian gave you, you make clothes, a set of summer shirts, a set of winter clothes. ”
Lilac didn't argue anymore, feeling that she was indeed a bit of a money obsesser.
She happily ran to the kitchen.
There are shrimp, fish, shellfish, and even a few pike crabs, and the saliva of cloves overflows the mouth.
Yang Hu's family and Zhang's family didn't know how to make these high-end ingredients, so they called the Gong family, who was busy in the hut.
Gong smiled, "It doesn't lose its umami, and steamed is the best." ”
Lilac suggested, "Save more prawns and make dumplings tomorrow." ”
Grandpa likes to eat dumplings and wraps him with different seafood dumplings.
Ding Zhuang came out and took some seafood out for Yang Hu's family to send to Ding Shan's family and Xia Er's family. Thinking about it, he took two more fish out and sent them to Xia Lizheng's house and Ding Li's house.
"I just said that it was sent by the general. I gave the generals a carved bronze tripod, which was very popular with the generals. ”
After getting acquainted with such a big official, of course, you have to show off your performance.
When passing by the county seat, Ding Zhuang also wanted to send some seafood to Lord Qingtian, but thinking that this place was not very far from the sea, he should not lack these things.
When you go to Jiangnan, buy some good things, plus the honey fat incense bracelet that Xiangxiang said, the county lord will like it more.
Lilac called Gong to the upper room again and asked her to see the two pieces of material.
Gong said with a smile, "The azure is Jiusiluo, and the rose-red jacquard satin is Song Jin." ”
She opened the ingredients, "Four feet each, an adult can make one set of clothes, and a child can make two sets of clothes." ”
Lilac gave Zhang's five pearls, and pointed to Jiusiluo and said, "Make it for my mother." ”
Song Jin is red and flowery, and Zhang must be embarrassed to wear it.
Zhang happily took the pearl and refused to accept Jiusiluo, "My mother has dark skin, it's a pity to wear this kind of material, keep it for Xiangxiang to make a summer shirt." Aya'er Niang first used Song Jin to cut Xiangxiang's winter clothes, and I sewed them out in a hurry, so that I could wear them during the New Year. ”
Gong said with a smile, "Sister Xiang'er has a white complexion, she must look good in this fabric, and it looks better if she buys some fur and inlays." ”
Ding Zhuang listened and paid for Zhang's to buy furs.
Lilac said, "It's a pity, it's time for my mother to dress up." Let Aunt Gong cut it and make something suitable for her mother. ”
Zhang still shook his head and didn't want to.
Gong said with a smile, "Jiusiluo made a half-arm for my sister to wear in spring, and it happened to be equipped with a plate buckle." There is still more than half left, enough to make a summer shirt for adults. ”
Lilac said, "That's it, I'll make a half-arm, my mother will make a summer shirt, and the rest of the material will be buckled." ”
Zhang Shifang was speechless.
Ding Zhao came back and forth with Ding Liren and Ding Li, and he was also very happy after hearing about it.
Ding Zhao didn't have much confidence in Ding Lichun's martial arts examination before, because his son had always had this thought, so he didn't interfere too much. Now that there is a second way, and there is also the support of the generals, of course, it is better.
The master had a feast of seafood, and the people also ate a sea fish and a few prawns.
After the meal, Ding Zhuang wanted to discuss things with Ding Zhao and said, "Zhaozi and Lichun stay, you all go out." ”
Ding Lichun is the eldest son, and he has started to work on errands, and he will be allowed to participate in family meetings.
Ding Zhao glanced at Lilac and said with a smile, "Dad, Xiangxiang should stay too, she is a big ghost, and she has many good ideas in her stomach." ”
Lilac sat still. She knew that her father was afraid that he would spend so much money to buy jewelry for his daughter-in-law without authorization, and her grandfather would beat him.
Ding Zhuang first asked, "Have you bought pig iron and copper ingots?" ”
Ding Zhao smiled, "Not yet." Seeing that the old man looked at him with puffed eyes, he blushed and said, "The money that I bought is used for other purposes." ”
"What is it for?"
Ding Zhao's face turned even redder, "Well, I see that Lichun Niang is hard, and our family has not had the same good jewelry for so many years after marrying her, so I spent sixty-five silver taels to buy her a golden hairpin......
Ding Xiang was about to help her father speak, but Ding Zhuang frowned and scolded, "Stupid, why did I give birth to such a gentle son as you." It is a man's duty to marry a man, dress and eat, and buy jewelry and clothes for his daughter-in-law.
"If you earn money, you should dress your daughter-in-law decently, and you should be scared like this when you buy some jewelry. If your mother were alive, I would have hung most of my family business on her. Leaving Xiangxiang is to want her to intercede for you, right? Look at your ideas. ”
Ding Zhao didn't expect his father to say these words, and he laughed dryly.
Lilac knew that her grandfather was a spoiled wife, but she didn't expect to be so spoiled. Listen to this, what a man.
She climbed onto her grandfather's knee and kissed him twice on his big black face.
praised, "Grandpa is so good!" I'm so happy to be grandgranddaughter. ”
It's a pity that Grandma An An died early. If she lives, as long as the family is divided, even if the family is not very wealthy, she will live comfortably and happily.
Ding Zhuang's sweet words were very useful, and he laughed and sat down with his granddaughter in his arms.
He added, "I'm old and not in good health, so I don't want to strike iron." You are thirty-two years old, and when you have passed the year of establishment, the shop and this room will be handed over to you. ”
Ding Zhao hurriedly said modestly, "Dad doesn't want to hit Tiecheng, this family is still ...... Daddy."
Ding Zhuang waved his hand and said, "In the future, the family will get better and better, your brain is more active than me, and you are steady, literate, I can rest assured that this home will be handed over to you." In the future, I will accompany Xiangxiang at home and do something I like. Also, next month I will go to Jiangnan with Lichun, so I'll go.
"Not only did I sell the two honey sticks, but I also took the broken stones, and the larger ones were polished and taken home, and the smaller ones were sold. I'm going to take a look at the bead pendants of honey butter and agarwood, how to make the texture look better. ”
Ding Zhuang went to sell honey butter, and Ding Zhao and Lilac were relieved. Don't look at him who can't read and write, but he is the most knowing, cunning, can bargain, and meet people to serve dishes.
There is also Ding Lichun's personal care, which is more assured.
Lilac was very happy in her heart, she didn't want her grandfather to strike iron for a long time, it was too hard. As for wanting to visit Jiangnan too, she didn't mention it, and her grandfather and father definitely didn't allow her to go.
Thank you Louis Yiyi for your tip, thank you for your monthly pass.
