Chapter Twenty-Six: A Village Woman Like No Other!
The busy days flew quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the morning of Miss Min's birthday.
Steward Min is a serious person, and he was prepared for the main family's questioning, so he simply invited the Tai family to go to the house together.
Naturally, the identity of the Tai family is not allowed to sit at the table, but it is not difficult to sit in the outer courtyard room for a while, and it is not difficult to settle down.
Old Man Tai didn't worry about the clansmen staying in the broken yard, for fear that they would cause trouble when they walked outside.
Therefore, he only let his eldest son and his wife, as well as the younger son of Qiaozui, go to Minfu with him.
Tai Jizong and his wife are both honest people, so naturally they will not object.
Tai Yongan and Tai Yongning are good, only Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue are two boys jumping to their feet and making trouble.
In the end, it was the old man who bought two strings of sugar gourds and successfully "suppressed" the two leather monkeys.
As for Zhuzhu, of course, she followed her parents to Minfu.
The milk dumplings are well-behaved and cute, and they have completely captured the heart of the old father of Steward Min in the past few days.
Steward Min had already planned it, and if the ladies in the backyard wanted to ask, he would let Yang Lihua hug Zhuzhu over.
The women are soft-hearted and must be more fond of the soft little dolls.
I can't say, Zhuzhu can earn more rewards......
The Tai family also knew that Min was well-intentioned, and after entering the Min Mansion, they waited honestly in the outer courtyard room, and waited until it was dark......
The north is barren and the county seat is not large, but there is no shortage of rich people either.
Just after the afternoon, there were cars and horses rushing to the door of Minfu, men and women, old and young, a full hundred and ten people.
The place separated by a wall from the outer courtyard is the stove room, and the chef specially invited in the restaurant is frying and frying, and the chef and rough maid of the Min family are busy with it, and the aroma overflows from time to time.
The Tai family smelled the aroma in a few sips, and their stomachs began to growl.
Yang Lihua took out the package prepared temporarily, turned out a few sorghum noodle nests, and simply cushioned the stomach with the hot tea in the house.
Zhuzhu naturally eats dim sum, and after eating, she lies on the kang and falls asleep.
After a while, Steward Min brought a small servant and walked in with a food box.
The Tai family hurriedly got up and saluted, and Steward Min waved his hand, and when he saw the fat girl sleeping with her hands and feet spread out, she looked very sweet, and he smiled.
"I deliberately let the stove steam the egg custard, but I didn't expect Zhuzhu to fall asleep. Then you can eat first, and then feed her when she wakes up. ”
Yang Lihua smiled and thanked, "Thank you Steward Min, Zhuzhu is bothering you to think about it." ”
Steward Min was not arrogant, and responded, "It's just a trivial matter, but I should thank you." It was already dark outside, the ice lanterns were lit, and all the visitors were full of praise.
I can't say that I can be rewarded by my master for this errand. ”
In this way, after a few words, he went to work.
Leaving the Tai family to quickly open the food box, it contained a plate of cabbage and meat slices, a plate of minced meat and tofu, and a large bowl of white rice, plus a small bowl of egg custard, which was really hearty.
I can't take these things back, so even if I think about the old people and children at home, Tai Jizu and Yang Lihua,
Tai Jiye is still a fine eater.
As a result, as soon as the empty dishes and chopsticks were stacked in one place, a grandmother came to pass the word.
It turned out that Mrs. Min accompanied the ladies of each family to enjoy the lanterns in the garden, and summoned the Tai family to come over and talk back.
Yang Lihua didn't worry about her daughter, so she wrapped her tightly and carried her on her back.
The winter garden has no flowers and plants, it is really boring and boring.
But now with ice lanterns, it's completely different.
Under the bare willow tree, there are two cranes, with small cylinders of ice lanterns in their mouths, looking fatter, but very cute.
Dry shrubs from the inside, rabbit lamps of different shapes are hidden in them, each lively and soft and cute.
Even in the pond full of broken leaves, there are pink lotus flowers, looking at it from afar, it is beautiful, and it is a little more dreamy than summer.
How can a woman not like flowers and small animals, the ladies of each family walked all the way and praised all the way.
Miss Min and the little sisters were even more jumping, playful and happy.
Mrs. Min made a big splash, and her heart blossomed.
So when the ladies of each family inquired, they called the Tai family to reply.
As soon as Yang Lihua appeared with her daughter on her back, everyone couldn't help but look over.
Although her clothes are old, they are very clean, and her hair is neatly combed, which is much better than the village woman in everyone's impression.
Yang Lihua saluted respectfully, and was very gentle when she bent over, obviously not wanting to wake up her sleeping daughter.
This made Mrs. Min feel a little more favorable.
Because she only gave birth to a daughter, she loves her like a treasure on weekdays, otherwise she wouldn't have celebrated her daughter's birthday with such fanfare.
"Yang, the ladies of the family are very fond of these ice sculpture lights, and I wonder how your family thinks about putting the lights in the ice shell? Can you tell us about that? ”
"Yes, the little woman must know everything and say everything." Yang Lihua bowed her head and said, "A few days ago, my uncle was accidentally injured a little, and we brought the child to visit. My youngest daughter is afraid of the dark and cries a little, but the family is poor and has no lantern lighting.
"So, my uncle and the boys froze a few ice shells and threw the lighted pine nuts to serve as lanterns.
"I didn't want to be discovered by the discerning eyes of the steward of your house, so I got this errand, and I was fortunate to carve an ice lantern to help you entertain."
Everyone didn't expect a village woman to speak so methodically, and even elegantly, and they became more and more curious.
Someone asked, "Have you ever read?" ”
Yang Lihua nodded, "I have studied for a few years since I was a child, but unfortunately my parents died early and I was outcast. ”
Everyone listened to the heart, and the woman would end miserably without the protection of her parents and relatives.
It's good for Yang Lihua to marry like this, but if she is sold to a dirty land, her life will be completely ruined.
The ice lantern is really good, and Yang Lihua, the person who replied, also looks extraordinary, and everyone will naturally not be stingy.
This one shouted for a reward, and the other shouted for silver.
Yang Lihua hurriedly saluted and thanked her, and finally retreated quietly.
The old lady who picked her up was responsible for sending her back, and seeing that the small basket Yang Lihua was carrying in her hand contained a lot of silver melon seeds and silver horns, the old lady was very envious.
Yang Lihua hesitated for a moment, grabbed a few silver melon seeds and handed them over.
The old lady was coaxed into smiling, and sent Yang Lihua to the door of the wing room.
Tai Jizu and Tai Jiye were very worried, and when they saw Yang Lihua coming back so soon, they hurriedly welcomed her into the house to talk.
"Sister-in-law, are you embarrassed? I was going to reply, but I thought it was to let you pass! Tai Jiye was very sorry that the rhetoric he prepared didn't come in handy.
Tai Jizu helped his daughter-in-law to untie her daughter-in-law, and when she saw that her daughter was still sleeping sweetly, she couldn't help but smile and said, "This girl slept honestly, I was afraid that she would wake up suddenly and be startled when she saw so many people." ”
Yang Lihua took a sip of hot water and was about to respond, but Zhuzhu suddenly woke up, looked around in horror with big watery eyes, and cried with a grin.
