Seeing Dongmiao cry, Dongnuan sighed softly, and said with a look of hatred: "Uncle, why don't you let me calm down first? She can't learn like this, and it's getting late.

.”

The eldest uncle was angry and annoyed because Dongxu, she had always been very respectable in this family, but when she came to Dongmiao, she encountered the Waterloo Incident. How could she not feel uncomfortable?

Therefore, training your daughter is a must.

However, it’s not good to do it in front of outsiders, it wouldn’t look good!

Thinking of this, the aunt's smile froze a lot, and her voice became tense: "Thank you for your hard work, let's learn here today."

"Then I'll go out first." Dong Nuan shook her head gently and walked out with a bit of helplessness.

Looking at this scene, the aunt felt that her eyes were going dark. Looking at Dong Miao lying on the bed crying, she became even more angry.

But as Dongmiao gets older, it's hard for her to hit others, and it doesn't look good on her face if she disciplines her daughter in front of the whole family.

In the end, she had no choice but to walk over bitterly and pinched Dongmiao's arm hard. After making Dongmiao scream, she lowered her voice and said, "How can you be so ignorant?"

Dong Nuan, who had already walked out of her uncle's house, moved her eyebrows slightly when she heard these words, but her facial expression did not change, nor did she feel any sense of shame that might have mislead her.

Even if the people in this family have discussions with her, she may not be willing to teach them. What's more, Dong Nuan is even less happy when the eldest uncle uses Mrs. Dong to pressure her.

Since they feel free to let her teach them, it is none of her business how they teach them and what the results are.

Didn’t she teach at all anyway?

That must be impossible.

There is still a problem with the people who are learning.

Naturally, other people in the Dong family also heard Dong Nuan loudly endorsing Dong Miao. The second uncle had been in a bad mood for the past two days because of the marriage of the Liao family next door, so she didn't bother to listen to it more.

Fourth Aunt Dong was still lying on the bed, and she never cared about such things.

Aunt Dongwu murmured a few words in a low voice: "It's a good life, it's really..."

I couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly because I felt Mrs. Dong's unkind gaze.

Old Man Dong still cared about Dong Miao, his granddaughter, so after Dong Nuan came out, he raised his head and asked: "How is your eldest sister studying?"

Hearing Mrs. Dong ask this question, Dong Nuan pursed her lips with a look of embarrassment on her face. She could tell at a glance that her words were unpleasant and she didn't know how to say them.

Old Man Dong understood, his eyebrows narrowed, but he didn't say anything else.

During dinner, the aunt came out, but her eyes were red, and she could tell she had cried.

Normally, Second Auntie would definitely want to make a few comments, but now she is not in the mood.

So, dinner was pretty uneventful.

After the aunt had finished eating, she brought Dong Miao's rice in.

"It's all a debt to the children!" Looking at the aunt's back, Mrs. Dong sighed helplessly.

In the next few days, Dongnuan went to Hanjianglou's house to carve wood carvings in the morning and noon, and taught Dongmiao in the evening.

When endorsing, Dong Nuan was very loud, but when it came to scolding, Dong Nuan's voice was not too loud.

Because her progress was impressive, Dongmiao didn't notice anything was wrong. She also interpreted Dong Nuan's performance and felt that Dong Nuan might also want to save her face, so she didn't speak loudly when she was scolding her.

After a few days, Dongmiao was exhausted physically and mentally. She didn’t want to read it anymore. It was too difficult, too difficult, and she couldn’t remember it at all!

By now, I know the saying that in the beginning, human nature is good, but no matter how many times it is repeated, I can no longer remember it.

However, she didn't dare to say it, and she wasn't willing to give up just like that.

Five days later, Dong Nuan's second wood carving work was completed, and he also carved a third one.

The first one is a gourd, which represents fortune, and the second one is a half-moon and laurel tree, which symbolizes nobility.

As for the third item, it’s really easy.

Dong Nuan used all the small gourds she had practiced with, each with a different shape, and specially carved a box. The box was made into a nine-square grid with small wooden boards, and small gourds with different shapes were placed in it.

This box is a gourd box, which means a box of fortune.

After these wood carvings were carved, they were carefully polished with linen cloth to remove burrs and some edges, and then they were painted with oil.

Brushing with oil can prevent insects and cracks, and can also increase the exquisiteness of the wood carving.

Dong Nuan made two of them by herself, and the last Fulu box was completed by Hanjiang Lou.

Recently, he is still in the initial stage of learning, and his gourd carving is ugly and not very good-looking.

Fortunately, he has a good character, doesn't rush, doesn't panic, and takes his time.

After the three carvings were completed, the birthday of the old lady of the county magistrate's family was only two days away.

Hanjianglou will take these things to the county town, and by the way, he will also bring the cheese he has recently saved to the county town to sell.

Dong Nuan and he couldn't finish all the cheese, so they might as well sell it in exchange for money.

The processed cheese has a very fragrant and mellow taste without any smell.

Dongnuan also provides a way to eat it, that is, when making tea, put two pieces in, and then add a little sugar or salt. The brewed milk tea will have a mellow milk aroma and a great taste.

Hanjianglou carefully noted down the proportions, and then left with his things in the morning.

Leaving home this time is no different than before. In the past, when he left home, he would leave a few chickens at home and spread more food so that the chickens wouldn't go hungry.

However, now there is still a sheep at home.

Hanjianglou left the key to his home with Dong Nuan and asked her to come over and feed the sheep when she had nothing to do.

This time, Dong Nuan did not refuse, because sheep are no better than chickens. They are still producing milk and are not resistant to hunger.

The day Hanjianglou set out for the county seat happened to be the day that the Liao family had decided to invite a matchmaker to their home.

Naturally, the matchmaker came to the door at noon when everyone was idle. Dong Nuan happened to catch up. She originally wanted to lock Dong Xing and Liao Mingkun together. There was something exciting to watch at this time, so how could she miss it?

It's just that they won't let their children crowd together to watch this kind of thing.

Therefore, the warmth in winter is enjoyed under the base of the wall outside the fenced yard.

The matchmaker is still Mrs. Liu from last time. She has a clever mouth and a smile that makes people smile, which makes her very suitable for this profession.

"Oh, old sister-in-law, we have met again. This girl in your family is the best girl in the ten miles and eight villages." After Mrs. Liu came, she fired a burst of rainbow output at Old Mrs. Dong, sending Dong a

The old lady was so boastful that she couldn't see her teeth, and the old tree-bark face was trembling with laughter.

I couldn't see Dong Nuan, I just listened to the movement casually.

Er Auntie, Dong Xing and Mrs. Dong were dealing with it in the house.

Naturally, it would be impossible to talk about a kiss directly while sitting in the main room. That would be too bad. If it doesn't work out, both parties will be embarrassed.

Therefore, Mrs. Dong took people to Uncle Dong's house.

In the warm winter weather, this distance was just enough to hear them talking.

Of course, this is for those with keen hearing in Dongnuan. If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid they would only be able to hear it intermittently and not be able to hear clearly.
