Chapter 5: Yurong Bath Beans
Finally, after the New Year, his mother finally agreed to send someone to propose marriage, and at this time, his classmates from the county school came to invite him to visit the gentlemen and classmates in the county, and some parties should also go. When his mother repeatedly promised that he would propose marriage, Xiao Hanyang happily followed his classmates.
This is a few days, and when he came back yesterday, after hearing what his mother said, he rushed over to find Qin Xun desperately, wanting to ask him face to face, or to say that he didn't care about the damage to her reputation, and he was still willing to marry her.
Unfortunately, he didn't see anyone, and when he got home, he had an argument with his mother.
He was also arguing with his mother just now, and when he opened the door, he also wanted to go to Qin Xun to ask, but he was hit on the head, and Qin Xun had already made a marriage.
How is this possible?
He turned his head in a daze, looked at the worried Zhao Cuihua and asked, "Mother, didn't you say that it was only a few days since you retired, why did they get married?" You weren't lying to me, were you? β
"Let's go, let's go home first, and I'll talk about it later." Zhao Cuihua was also angry, but she still had to coax her little ancestor back, it would be bad if he made some jokes on the spot.
Only she knows how twisted Xiao Hanyang's temperament is, for the sake of the fox spirit Qin Xun next door, she has fought with her son a lot of wits and courage, but don't go wrong at this juncture.
persuaded her son to go back, thinking that Qin Xun and Xiao Chenyu were married, Zhao Cuihua was also angry.
She doesn't look down on Qin Xun as the daughter born in the outer room, won't she want to burden her son as an official in the future, but her son is a strong donkey, and if she doesn't go along with the hair, she will make trouble, it's really not easy for her mother, and finally she has a reasonable reason not to be such a daughter-in-law, and finally got rid of the Qin family, only to feel that the sky is brighter.
However, if you don't want to, the other party will marry as soon as you hand over the words, or even Xiao Chenyu, then it won't work, isn't this a slap in the face?
Zhao Cuihua is not an ordinary ignorant village woman, if it weren't for her, how could Xiao Chenyu's mother and son be able to leave the house when the family was separated, and her son had also become a young and promising talent, she didn't believe that there was nothing she couldn't do.
After appeasing her son, she hurriedly went out to inquire, and only after this inquiry did she know that Xiao Chenyu was really married, and she began to be busy buying things for the past two days.
This is not only about his son's trouble, but also about Zhao Cuihua's face.
As soon as he came out of Buzhuang, he met Chen Youyou, the daughter of the boss of the town's money village.
Chen Youyou led the two maids, and was accompanied by Su Xiaomiao, the daughter of Qin Xun's second uncle. Zhao Cuihua looked around and saw that there was nowhere to hide, so she could only smile and greet her.
Chen Youyou's originally cold face also smiled, and he walked over and shouted affectionately: "Auntie come to see the fabric, why don't we accompany my aunt to see it?" β
Qin Xun and Su didn't know about these things outside, and they were only busy at home.
Because I remembered that I had been drinking brown sugar water these days, I asked how much brown sugar there was at home?
Aunt Sang said that there was a lot of brown sugar.
"Then let's make Yurong bath beans." Qin Xun clapped his hands and deliberately looked at the Su family with a sad expression: "Mother, okay?" β
There were no red marks on Su's face, but she was still not interested, but her daughter rarely asked her to do things together, so she cheered up and accompanied her.
"Okay, do whatever you say!" Su said dotingly.
Qin Xun just wants to keep the Su family busy, so that he can forget about being beaten today, these accounts will be taken slowly, and they will always be recovered with interest.
Aunt Sang was also brought in to help, and the three women gathered in the hall for the first time, working under Qin Xun's command, which was very pleasant.
The main ingredient of Yurong bath beans is brown sugar, Aunt Sang is responsible for mashing the brown sugar with a piece of sandalwood, and Qin Coriander weighed a variety of incense powders and sprinkled them on top of the brown sugar.
Su Shi was also eager to participate, using his hands to fully and evenly mix the brown sugar and the medicinal powder, and to pick out the particles in the incense powder.
Aunt Sang was stronger, kneaded the reconciled brown sugar powder into a ball, and then repeatedly beat it into a fragrant mud.
Even Aunt Sang was very tired, and when Su Shi saw this, he hurriedly took it over and let Aunt Sang take a rest.
Finally, you will be rolled into a small ball into a mold pressed into a bath bean, the bath bean is printed with the pattern of Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum on one side, and an auspicious word is printed on the other side, which is "auspicious Ruyi, Fulu Suxi".
Qin Xun wrapped a large bag of bath beans and handed it to Aunt Sang, and said, "Aunt Sang, you can take these, use them yourself, and give them away, it should be your hard work." β
Aunt Sang hurriedly shook her head and pushed the bath beans outward: "The situation at home is not good now, it's better to take it for some money first, isn't it a waste for an old woman to use these things?" β
Ignoring Aunt Sang's objections, Qin Xun handed over the bath beans, and said without objection: "What is given to you is for you, and Aunt Sang cannot shirk." Besides, if you don't like it, you can use it for your nephew and daughter-in-law, she is still very good to you. β
Speaking of Aunt Sang's nephew and daughter-in-law, Aunt Sang didn't shirk it anymore and thanked her with a smile.
Aunt Sang is a widow with no children and no daughters, and after being kicked out by her in-laws, she was picked up by her nephew in the next room. But the rope was broken in detail, and the nephew's family was also difficult, so he took his aunt back, and the nephew and daughter-in-law didn't say a word, and comforted Aunt Sang not to think too much, so she followed them to live with peace of mind.
However, a year later, the nephew went to work at the county wharf, annoyed the nobles, was kicked into the turbulent river, and when he was rescued, he had already lost his breath.
Aunt Sang couldn't bear to see her nephew and daughter-in-law pulling a son and a daughter, so she came out to find something to do, and happened to meet a good-natured master like the Su family, which has been done for more than ten years, and she has long regarded this place as her home.
Su Shi heard on the side that Qin Xun asked Aunt Sang to take these to Xiao Chenyu to sell the next day, so he couldn't help but say: "Xun'er, when the money from the shop comes back, the family will be rich, you don't have to worry about the money." β
Qin Xun looked at her mother, who was still a little naΓ―ve, and said: "I am scaring the second uncle today, he may not be frightened, this money will come back sooner or later, and I will also ask for the shop back, but it will definitely not be something that can be done in these days." Now my marriage is the most important, and I will settle the matter of my second uncle's family after this matter is over. β
"Your second uncle's family?" Su Shi actually grasped the meaning of Qin Xun's words and wondered.
Qin Xun smiled and said, "If my cousin doesn't take me to Xuanmiaoguan that day, I won't fall into the water, this has a cause, and naturally there should be a result." β
"I don't even understand what you're saying?" The biggest advantage of the Su family is that if you don't understand it, you don't interfere with your daughter, but just tell a few words that you are a relative no matter what, so don't make it too much.
"Mother, my grandmother and my eldest uncle and second uncle treated you like that, but why do you still associate with them, and still support them so much and tolerate them?"
Even if the Su clan is weak, he won't be bullied so far? Qin Xun in her previous life didn't think about these things, but now she doesn't just look at things by looking at the side that it shows.
Faced with Qin Xun's sudden question, Su's hand was stunned and accidentally crushed a bath bean.
Qin Qian's gaze froze, this bath bean is not easy to crush.
