Yu Huai's original intention was to say that the "unlucky" words were all false, but when Cheng Xue was involved in his words, it was somewhat unpalatable.
Yu Zhao hurriedly poked his father secretly, but the old man said "Ouch~" and didn't take it seriously at all.
"What are you afraid of? Your sister-in-law is not an outsider. If your brother hadn't been so anxious to marry someone back then..."
"Uncle, drink." Li Hui interrupted his uncle in time to prevent him from continuing.
Although men and women sit at separate tables, there is only a screen in the middle, so the other party can hear everything they say. Even if it is old news, it is fun to talk about it, but in front of Cheng Xue and Wang, they have to avoid it. p>
Mr. Pang looked at Yu Huai who was too sincere and didn't think much about it. He nodded with a smile and agreed.
"Okay, since I don't mind it, I'll go there on the right day."
"Don't worry about it. We'll go there on August 13th." Yu Huai demanded strongly. "The houses are all built. They are spacious and enough to live in. Brother, please go over with Huizi's family and celebrate the festival at my place. To be honest, brother,
We have 200 acres of melon land in the clan field. When the time comes, I will sit on the ground with you and eat it. It will be so fragrant and sweet."
When Mr. Pang heard this, he looked at Li Hui, who looked like he was "all at his mercy" and agreed with a smile.
"Okay, two hundred acres of land is not unusual, but these two hundred acres of melon land are rare. Our Balixiang in Liaodong is famous, delicious and sweet."
"Yes, yes, my Bali Xiang is the most delicious. There is also watermelon, but the garden is about to close. When my brother makes it early next year, I will treat you to eat as much as you can."
In fact, Yu Huai didn't drink much, but he had this problem of drinking too much. It can't be said that the wine is not good, but it can be said. Li Hui was afraid that Mr. Pang would be bored by hearing this, so he kept picking up food for Yu Huai
, Yu Zhao also quickly changed the subject. Yu Chang hardly spoke during the whole process, but kept taking care of Li Heng and Yan Yixin eating.
At the women's table, Madam Liu wanted to speak anxiously several times, but because of the face of the head of the family, she couldn't bear it. When she saw her daughter-in-law and nephew's wife, they didn't care and let out a sigh of relief.
The whole meal was filled with anxiety, but fortunately Yu Huai behaved himself and didn't say anything too outrageous at the end...
……
In the days that followed, Cheng Xue was busy in the yard where the guests stayed on the first day of the new year. Bai Shao and Ma helped Mrs. Liu make wedding clothes for Yu Chang.
Li Hui was not idle either. He was dragged to the town by Yu Huai and bought a lot of semi-finished paper work, which he folded at home every day. Wen Tian didn't even try to escape, so he was captured by Li Hui as a laborer. Li Heng, Yan Yixin
, Li Tian also folded, and in Huai's words, the boys folded gold ingots, and the girls folded silver ingots.
In the final analysis, it is just a comfort to the heart.
The embroidery work of the wedding dress was done by white peony root. The little girl had quick and dexterous hands, and the embroidery was lifelike and vivid. Cheng Xue watched the progress every day and was full of praise for her.
Mrs. Liu also likes white peony root very much, but it's a pity that she is a slave, otherwise she would help her with everything.
I had just arrived on the first day of July, and guests from the county and the city were arriving one after another. The arrangements had been made in the yard. Li Zhong went to pick up Yang Chong and his wife and the Du family's grandparents. Xiao Qinglin and Zhou Fei rode in their own carriage.
, this is the first time for Xiao Qinglin and Zhou Fei’s family to come here, and the others have been here last time.
Yuniang took the female family members to the main house in the backyard. Cheng Xue looked at the little girl whom she hadn't seen for a long time, stretched out her hand to bring the child over. She weighed it twice and found that it had gained a lot of weight. She had been fed well and her little face was fair and white.
of.
"Have you chosen a name?"
"Took it." Lian replied. "My nickname is Yuanyuan, and my elder name is Zhou Liyuan."
"The couple's spouse?"
"Yes."
Cheng Xue nodded with satisfaction, this is a good name.
"Sister Yuan, hello."
The little girl closed her eyes and slept soundly, occasionally raising the corners of her mouth with a smile. The old man called this "mother-in-law sleep".
When Mrs. Cao saw that Mr. Luo didn't come this time, she knew what happened last time, which made people unhappy.
She was also smart and didn't mention anything. She just talked to the store about the fields her husband mentioned. After hearing this, Cheng Xue had a rough idea. She just waited until she had completed the official business to see the remaining money in her hand, and then started to make purchases.
The food is very easy to prepare. It is in the backyard. Tiandong and Gastrodia are in charge of baking it. Everyone sits in the pavilion separately for men and women, with a screen in the middle, and chats while eating.
Occasionally, Xiao Qinglin chatted with Cheng Xue through the screen, and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious. Lian hurriedly finished his meal and then went back to take care of the children. Zhou Fei personally sent his wife back to the room and then came back. Mr. Pang couldn't help nodding with satisfaction. p>
"Not bad, Jingyu performed very well."
Zhou Fei scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this and said:
"Master, you teach well. You often say, 'A man who dotes on his wife will have good luck.' The students dare not forget it."
Cheng Xue frowned slightly when she heard this. Mrs. Liu said across the screen:
"Sure enough, Mr. Pang has profound knowledge. Yu Zhao, Yu Huan, you two brothers should always keep this in mind. Your eldest brother has done a good job in this regard and always respects your sister-in-law."
"Yu Zhao is not bad, he treats his brothers and sisters like ten heads!" Cheng Xue hurriedly helped to smooth things over.
Mr. Pang was on the other side of the screen, put down his wine glass, and corrected with blurred eyes——
"Brothers and sisters of the Yu family, those words are not my fault, they are those of a friend I have known for many years. She is a little girl. Despite her young age, she dares to speak and do things, and she is very practical. It is a pity that God is jealous. She has long been
So I took her away. If she hadn’t left and had gone to the end with the Guan family, I think we, Liang Yan, could have extended it for another twenty years..."
Mr. Pang opened up his chatterbox completely and talked in detail about the heroic words that his friend who had been with him for many years said.
What "a country has a family", what "anyone who offends our dynasty will be punished no matter how far away", what "the economic base determines the superstructure"...
The more Cheng Xue listened, the more her heart beat. For no other reason than that these words could not appear in this other world and this place.
The blood jade on her son's neck was a gift from him. So this friend is a time traveler? Sounds like she almost became a queen. If she is really a time traveler, then she is right to log off early.
After all, those words were exposed too early. Liang Yan was from the new dynasty, and she should have been at the end of the previous dynasty when she came. It was indeed easy for others to be afraid of her.
Just when she was thinking wildly, Li Hui came over, patted her on the shoulder and said:
"Go and see the girl from the Zhou family. If nothing is done over there, let her rest in the room and don't come over. It looks like things are going to break up here too."
Cheng Xue understood what he meant, and without rejecting, she said "hmm", explained a few words to the Liu family, Wang family, and Cao family, and left with an excuse.
It seems that he knew it a long time ago, otherwise he would not be able to let her leave. Fortunately, she left, otherwise he would have been asking Pang Lao about the origin of the year-end friend the next second.
I went to Yuxiangyuan to order a meal, told Mrs. Lian that I didn’t need to go there, and prepared to leave, but she stopped me when I didn’t want to.
"Sister-in-law, we plan to return to Fucheng on the tenth day of July. Can you come with us? I have prepared all the medicinal materials and the yard has been sorted out for your family."
The provincial examination is scheduled for July 16th, so you can go back on the 10th day of the lunar month.
