Chapter 775 Members of the Shang Family
After the Gu family, Shang family, and Jiang family were busy for a few days, it was finally the ninth day of the Lunar New Year.
Gu Jinli's family got up early and put on new clothes. They called Qin, Gu Luotian's family, Gu Daya's family, the village chief He and He Jinsheng's grandchildren. A group of people sat in the workshop's mule cart and went Go to Shangjiacun.
Although it was Gu Jin'an who became his disciple, the scholar knew that Qin and Gu Luotian's family had good relations, so he invited several of their families as well.
As for the village chief Hes family, He Jinsheng was also taking the scholar examination this year and he was familiar with Gu Jinan, so they also went together.
The Jiang family attaches great importance to today's apprenticeship. Jiang Jiao personally took Ah Jiu to wait at the intersection of Shangjia Village. After seeing the Gu family's mule cart, he greeted it with a big smile: "You guys are really punctual. It's going to be here at 10:00, it's exactly 10:00. If I were a little slower, I wouldn't be able to pick you up."
The auspicious time for apprenticeship is set at Si hour, and the Gu family promised to come at Chen hour.
Jiang Jiao looked at Gu Jinan again and saw that he was newly dressed and had the high spirits of a young man on his face. He patted Gu Jinan on the shoulder happily and said, "Yes, you have grown up a lot compared to when I just met you."
Gu Jinan smiled and said: "It's been more than three years, so of course he has to grow up."
He bowed to Jiang Jiao again and said, "Second Uncle Jiang has worked hard these days. Please pay your respects to Brother An."
Jiang Jiao hurriedly helped him up: "Stop bowing. If you still say these things about the relationship between our two families, then you are treating my Jiang family as an outsider."
Gu Jinan said with a smile: "I don't regard the Jiang family as an outsider. I just want to thank Uncle Jiang first and pretend to be well-behaved. When I ask for help in the future, it will be easier for me to ask."
"Haha, you kid. Okay, for what you said today, Second Uncle Jiang promises you that in the future, as long as Second Uncle Jiang can do it, he will definitely do it for you." Jiang Jiao has been with the Gu family for several years, and the two families have long been familiar with each other. After saying a few common words, he sat on the front of the Gu family's mule cart and took everyone to Shang Xiucai's house.
According to the rules, Shang Xiucai, as the master, cannot come to welcome Gu Jinan, a student. However, the middle door of the Shang family has been opened wide. Shang Xiucai used this way to express his importance to Gu Jinan.
Qin Gu Luotian's family entered Shang's house together, and the female family members followed Tao Zi to the back house, where Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang entertained them.
Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Dahu came to the Shang family the day before yesterday, and are now waiting for the female relatives of several families with Mrs. Jiang at the second gate.
Mrs. Cui saw her and said hurriedly: "Mrs. Jiang, you are an elder, how can we let you come to pick us up?"
Mrs. Jiang smiled and said: "The old woman is not here to pick you up. I am here to pick up the third sister-in-law of the Gu family."
The third sister-in-law of the Gu family is the third grandma.
Mrs. Jiang took the third grandma's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work today. The weather is quite cold. Let's go inside quickly to talk. It's warm inside."
The third grandma smiled and said: "Hey, let's go in and talk."
He also called to the female relatives of several families: "Iron-zhu wives and big-wood wives, please go in. Don't be stuck here."
After saying that, he looked at Mrs. Chen who was looking around, and warned her with his eyes not to be too noisy, so as not to scold her.
Ms. Chen ignored the third grandmas gaze and looked at Shang Mansion. She used to dream of visiting Shang Xiucai's house, but now that her family has earned money and has visited the county town several times, when she looks at Shang Xiucai's house, she curls her lips and thinks with slight disgust: This scholar's mansion is also It's not that good, it's not as good as the Xia family's house in town.
"Sister Xiaoyu." Yuan Yuan, wearing a red brocade jacket and skirt, ran over like a small ball and hugged Gu Jinli's hand, saying: "Sister Xiaoyu, you are finally here. Yuan Yuan has been waiting for you for a long time." , Yuanyuan will take you to play.
Yuan Yuan has completely different temperament from Shang Xiucai and his wife. She is a lively little girl who doesn't like to stay with adults. She has been following the rules all morning and she can no longer bear it. After seeing Gu Jinli, he immediately wanted to drag her to play with her.
Ms. Jiang scolded: "You kid, why don't you understand any rules? Your sister Xiaoyu has just arrived and she hasn't sat down to take a breath yet. Don't make trouble with her, or my mother will punish you."
Yuan Yuan felt a little aggrieved and looked at Gu Jinli and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, I'm sorry." Gu Jinli knew that Yuan Yuan was bored and asked with a smile: "Where does Yuanyuan want to take us to play?"
She pointed to Guiniu, Jinniu, Luo Huiniang and Tian Xiaohua and said, "They should go too."
Yuan Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Well, let's go together."
He ran over and took Guinius hand and said, Sister, Sister Yuanyuan will take you to play.
Gui Niu was not afraid of strangers, she smiled and nodded and said, "Okay."
Yuan Yuan was even more happy. He held Gui Niu in one hand and Gu Jinli in the other. He called Luo Huiniang and Jin Niu and took them to the garden of the back house.
Xiaoji also followed.
When Mrs. Jiang saw this, her eyes turned red. She blamed her belly for not being able to give Yuan Yuan a younger brother or sister, and letting Yuan Yuan grow up alone. She was overjoyed when she saw children of the same age.
Mrs. Jiang said to her: "Today is a happy day. You are also a master's wife. Your responsibilities will be heavier than before. You are no longer a little girl. You don't want to lose your temper again."
Ms. Jiang hurriedly put away her tears and said, "What mother said is that I am in trouble."
He then took Cui and Gu Jinxiu's hands and said, "I got an embroidery picture during the Chinese New Year. My sister-in-law and Sister Xiu are both excellent embroiderers. Please go over and help me embroider."
Mrs. Jiang smiled and said: "Xue Niang has been loving the embroidery since she got it. She said that she must invite Sister Xiu and Dashan's wife to see it. But I have seen that embroidery and I really can't embroider it as well as Sister Xiu. Its up to her to be a treasure herself.
Mrs. Jiang was good at dancing and soon became familiar with the female relatives of several families.
In the garden of the back house of the Shang family, Yuan Yuan took Gu Jinli and the others to a medicinal field, pointed to a small patch of medicinal materials covered by a bamboo shed and said: "Sister Xiaoyu, this is the dendrobium you gave me. They are not dead yet. They are all living well, am I very powerful?"
The little girl raised her head, looking like she was begging for praise.
Gu Jinli touched her head and said with a smile: "Well, Yuanyuan is very powerful, he can even grow dendrobium."
These dendrobiums are covered with fist-sized stones. Under the stones, in addition to soil, there are moss-covered logs. The dendrobium clings to the wood, with small corners protruding from the stones, which looks a bit cute.
Yuan Yuan was very happy to be praised by Gu Jinli, and told Gu Jinli about her hard work in growing medicinal materials.
Just as he was talking, several children from the Shang family ran over: "Yuanyuan, we have been looking for you for a long time, why are you playing with grass here again?"
A girl about the same age as Yuanyuan pointed at Gu Jinli and the others and said, "Who are these people? Why are you playing with them?"
Yuanyuan didn't like the little girl asking questions, but out of politeness, she still replied: "This is Sister Xiaoyu, the sister of Brother Jin'an."
An older girl next to him, about nine years old, sneered after hearing this: "Oh, it turns out they are those beggars who came from famine."
