Chapter 173 The Thanksgiving Gift from the Second cousin
"It was done years ago?" Bai Banxia was a little surprised. Time seemed to be in a hurry.
"I looked at the almanac with Xiu'er Niang, and it turns out that there will be good days after the new year in May. It's not good to wait too long, so we might as well do it before the new year to celebrate it and prevent your second cousin from getting anxious." Niu
Shi said jokingly.
The second cousin blushed, lowered his head and said nothing.
"Then I have to hurry up." Bai Banxia said.
"What are you holding on to?" Ms. Niu was puzzled. Why are you holding on and looking at each other? She couldn't help but look at Qi Zhen.
Bai Banxia showed the drawing she drew to her aunt, "I want to make a corolla watch for my second cousin to show my love. I've already drawn it, but it's a little complicated to make."
"Oh, this is so beautiful!" Mr. Niu's eyes were bright, "Tongshan, take a look, your wife is wearing this flower crown, it must be the first one in our ten miles and eight towns!"
The second cousin blushed and leaned over to take a look. He was a grown man and didn't understand very well, but it looked very complicated. He thought for a moment about Luo Xiuer's blushing face, and it must look good on it.
"Yeah." He responded.
Niu gave him an angry look, "It's useless to ask you this boring gourd. It's a good thing that Xiu'er doesn't dislike you. Otherwise, how can you get a wife like this?"
Zhang Tongshan touched his nose and thought, Xiu'er really wants to marry me.
Niu took Bai Banxia and asked her about the details of the corolla for a long time, then pulled her and said: "I just want to go to Luo's house to discuss things. You can bring this to Xiu'er to see. She will definitely like it."
"Okay, okay, I haven't had a proper conversation with my future second cousin-in-law yet." Bai Banxia agreed.
Last time we had a quick meeting, there were many people around, so we really didn’t have a chance to talk.
Soon Mrs. Niu brought Bai Banxia to Luo's house. After chatting with Xiu'er, she asked Bai Banxia to show them the pattern.
"This, this is so beautiful!" Xiu'er Niang couldn't help but praise, "It's because of your skill. Your niece can come up with such a style. No one has ever seen it before."
Luo Xiuer blushed and asked Bai Banxia with some worry: "Banxia, will this be time-consuming to do? Don't delay your business. I heard that you have to do business and treat people. It's too hard."
."
"It doesn't matter, I have time to do it in the evening. Besides, didn't I ask my aunt for help?" Bai Banxia laughed. The future second cousin sister-in-law knows how to care for others.
"Then thank you Banxia, thank you auntie." Luo Xiuer blushed even more.
Xiuer Niang and Niu wanted to discuss things, so they asked Bai Banxia and Luo Xiuer to go inside to chat. Luo Xiuer took Bai Banxia to her room.
There are many boys in the Luo family but few girls. Several half-grown boys squeeze into one room, but Luo Xiuer has a room of her own.
Her room was neatly tidied, with two sets of frequently worn clothes beside it.
"Banxia, thank you for that day." Luo Xiuer said, "I know you helped us, and you even gave me the medicine."
"You will be my second cousin-in-law from now on. If we don't talk to each other, don't be polite to me." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
Luo Xiuer nodded, "Yeah, okay."
She went to the bedside and took out a pair of socks, "I made these for you. I don't know if they are the right size. I just took a look at them that day and estimated the length."
The socks are made of fine cotton, so they are very comfortable to wear. The stitching is also very fine, and there is also a pattern embroidered on the top. It is not complicated, but extremely elegant.
"I don't know what kind of flowers you like, so I embroidered something simpler for fear of being uncomfortable." Luo Xiuer looked at her expression carefully, for fear that she wouldn't like it.
Bai Banxia smiled and hugged her, "I like it. I like it very much. It's so beautiful. Thank you, second cousin!"
Luo Xiuer's face turned red to her neck, as red as cooked shrimps, and she complained: "Not yet, don't make fun of me."
"It's coming soon. I'm going to call you now so that I won't be able to change my words later," Bai Banxia said.
"Then, don't scream in front of outsiders." Luo Xiuer's voice was as low as a mosquito's.
Bai Banxia couldn't help laughing, "Okay, second cousin!"
At this time, a head poked out from the window. It was Luo Xiuer's younger brother Luo Ping.
"Luo Ping, don't eavesdrop on us." Luo Xiuer glared at him.
Luo Ping scratched his head, "I didn't eavesdrop, I was looking for Sister Banxia."
"What's wrong?" Bai Banxia asked.
"Is Brother Qi Zhen here? Why don't you bring him with you?" Luo Ping asked anxiously.
Hey, this kid really admires Shang Qizhen.
"Here he is, he's at my grandma's house. You just go and play with him." Bai Banxia said.
Luo Ping was not in a hurry to leave. He hesitated a little and asked, "Can I call him out? Liangzi also wants to see him, but it is not convenient for Liangzi to go to Zhang's house."
Li Liang was indeed quite embarrassed. The Li family was in such trouble. Not to mention the Zhang family, he was too embarrassed to enter the Luo family again. Luo Ping and he always met outside.
"Go and tell Qi Zhen yourself, he will agree." Bai Banxia said.
Li Liang felt relieved and ran away quickly.
Luo Xiuer sighed and said, "It's also difficult for Li Liang. In fact, he is different from his family members."
Bai Banxia nodded and said nothing more, but she was wondering if the Li family might be hiding any secrets?
She chatted with Luo Xiu'er for a while about girls' whispers, and Niu shouted that she was going back. Then she said goodbye to Luo Xiu'er and returned to Zhang's house.
"Qi Zhen was called out by Luo Ping," said the second cousin.
"I know, I'm going to go play with them." Bai Banxia said and ran out.
Grandma called from behind: "Let's go back later and have dinner before leaving."
"okay!"
There is always food to eat when I come to grandma's house, and they are all her favorite dishes.
She went out for a walk and saw Qi Zhen and the three of them near the back mountain woodland. Qi Zhen was teaching a set of boxing techniques to Luo Ping and Li Liang.
The two of them studied very seriously. Luo Ping had a good understanding and learned quickly. Li Liang was a little worse, but he had a calm temperament and perseverance, and was calmer than other children of the same age.
Bai Banxia didn't rush over, but just watched them from a distance. In just a few days, Li Liang's cheeks became thinner, and he looked more serious and less childish.
After what happened at home, it was quite difficult for him to be a good person in the village. The half-grown man actually loves face the most, so Li Liang must have felt uncomfortable.
Therefore, Qi Zhen can teach him something if he can.
Qi Zhen looked like he had eyes on the back of his head. Even though his back was turned to her, he was the first to notice her.
He turned to look at her and grinned.
Bai Banxia walked over quickly and said, "He taught you boxing techniques, and I'll teach you a few more acupuncture points. For example, here, if you hit the enemy, the opponent's hand will be numb, and you will be unable to use your strength for a short period of time."
She demonstrated to Luo Ping, and Luo Ping shouted, "Oh, mommy!"
Li Liang understood and pressed Luo Ping's other arm, and he did it correctly.
"Mom, mom, why are you trying my hand at me? Liangzi, I want to press you!" Luo Ping shouted and pressed the acupuncture points on Li Liang's arm, but Li Liang dodged with a smile. The two started to fight, as if
