Grandmother stared blankly at the load of old gifts, then came back to her senses, screamed, sat on the ground, howled and cursed:
That **** girl who killed a thousand swords! How dare you fool me like this!
"What kind of evil have I done! After all the hard work of traveling to Luo City, this **** girl not only left me alone, but also asked me to accompany her on a vegetarian diet for four days. She agreed to give it to our family as a Mid-Autumn Festival gift, but... unexpectedly...
She was so angry that she was shaking, pointing at the pile of yellowed old gift sheets, rolling her eyes as if she couldn't breathe.
Sun Zhiqian rubbed his mother's back comfortingly, picked up one of the books, flipped through it, and asked curiously:
"Mom, did my uncle give so many things to our family? This...was given to me as a birthday gift when I was ten years old? Mom, didn't you say that my uncle was a **** and never gave me anything good? Look at this Which of the things listed above are not valuable? Where do you put those things? I have never seen them in these years..."
"You!" Sun's mother was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down, and she pointed at her son, "Unfilial son! I didn't do it for you! When I was three years old, I asked my master for no money? When I went to the academy to study, I didn't have to pay for it? What have you used these years? What kind of pen, ink, paper and inkstone dont cost money? You dont know how expensive studying is! Your uncles family is so rich, whats wrong with giving a decent birthday gift to your direct nephew? If he hadnt given him something flashy every time, he would never be like Other rich families often give away silver coins and banknotes to their relatives. Do I need to **** them and sell them? Do you think it is easy to manage this family? Is it easy for me these years? "
As she spoke, grandma covered her face and began to cry.
Sun Zhiqian was at a loss: "Mom, it's my son, isn't it! Stop crying!"
Grandmother beat her chest and cried non-stop: "Why don't you cry! This guy got a thousand knives! I paid for the carriage all by myself! It cost me several taels of silver! You will take the provincial examination next year The money for the expenses has not yet been settled... What use can these junk things be used for? How much money can this burden be worth..."
Wait... When it came to selling for money, Grandmother suddenly reacted, "Son! Take the scale and weigh it. These gift lists are also written on paper. If they are two thick piles, they may be sold for a lot of money. "
"Mother..." Sun Zhiqian twitched the corner of his mouth, "The gift list states that it is for our family, take it out and sell it, aren't you afraid of being seen?"
When grandma heard this, she thought so too! The gift note has a letterhead and states that it is for you. If you sell it, you might be laughed at.
He couldn't throw them away, and he couldn't sell them. He had to find a place to store these two piles of things. Sun's mother was so angry that she didn't sleep well for several nights, and there was a circle of fire bubbles around the corners of her mouth.
Son, you must strive for success. Come back next year and let that **** girl take a good look!
When Grandma thought about this, she gritted her teeth:
She looks down on our family now and wants to break away from our family! She deliberately uses this pile of junk to disgust us..."
In the past few days, she had become more and more angry as she thought about it.
The neighbors all knew that she went to her niece's house in Fengcheng, and when she came back she picked up a gift basket tied with wedding silk.
When getting off the carriage, a neighbor asked her if it was a mid-autumn ceremony for her niece to show her filial piety, and she answered "yes" with a beaming face.
result
These days, neighbors see her and ask enviously:
What gift did your niece give you? Its such a heavy load.
You are lucky that your niece is so filial.
She is really a mute eating Coptis chinensis, unable to express her suffering.
I can only hope that my son will be on the list in the provincial examination.
At that time, her son will be the master of civil affairs, and he must give that **** girl a good beating to get rid of her bad temper.
In that room, Xu Yin finished her Mid-Autumn Festival, checked the accounts of the house, and made sure they were all correct. She glanced at Sikong appreciatively: "Congratulations! From now on, you will be the accountant of our house!"
Thank you, girl.
"You're welcome. I just gave you a chance. It's mainly due to your own intentions." Xu Yin waved her hand casually, "However, the days ahead are long. I hope that the accounts you make will remain clear and clear year after year. false."
Sikong looks at his nose and his heart: "You understand, little one."
After settling the accounts, Xu Yin was about to return to the other courtyard. "Girl, the weather is getting colder. If you insist on going to another hospital to observe mourning, please bring the government doctor with you!" The old housekeeper is worried that she is delicate and frail, what should she do if she gets sick in the mountains?
Xu Yin thought for a while and said: "Okay!"
I want to learn the way of Chinese medicine in depth, and I can first understand the fur with the resident doctor in the government.
After autumn, the first batch of flowers planted began to bloom.
Lavender is the first to bloom.
A branch of purple flower branches forms a sea of purple mist, and a gust of autumn wind blows by, filling the air with fragrance.
In fact, the best season for lavender flower viewing is June and July. Unfortunately, it was already the end of April when she arrived here, and it took some time to open the mountains and breed them. This doesn't bloom until October.
Fortunately, lavender is cold-resistant, and the cooler weather also has an advantage for it - it has a long flowering period.
Xu Yin estimates that by the end of November, she will still be able to enjoy the charming sea of purple mist flowers in front of her.
All the helpers and servants present were attracted by the noble and elegant purple color and rich and unique fragrance of lavender.
What a beautiful flower! No wonder the girl is willing to invest so much energy in serving these little ancestors. They are so beautiful when they are in full bloom!
Is this a flower imported from overseas? Its so beautiful!
"Girl, can I pick a bunch back and put it on the window sill of your bedroom?"
Xu Yin laughed and said, "You can pick it if you like it. But don't waste it, I still have some use for it."
Dont waste it! Dont waste it! I will pick a small bunch and put it back in the vase in the study.
After Zi Yuan and Hong Qian finished speaking, they carefully walked into the lavender field and picked a few plump flowers.
Xu Kui came over and asked, "Girl, will all these flowers be harvested and taken to Xujia Village to make that kind of fragrance?"
He heard the girl mention it before, but he was confused and didn't understand it.
But dad said, he is here to run errands for the girl, and he will do whatever the girl asks.
You can ask if you dont understand, but dont make your own decisions.
Yes! Xu Yin asked, How is the construction of the fragrance shop going?
I just went to see it yesterday. Its almost completed, but there are only some details that need to be dealt with.
Its okay, dont be in a hurry, just let everyone take your time. The custom-made glass is not ready yet.
Liulifang was still unable to make the style she wanted and had to rework it several times.
If she could, she would really want to roll up her sleeves and say to the technicians at Liulicang: Let me go!
But in fact, she has never fired complex glass vessels, so she can only wait patiently for Liulicang to bake a finished product that satisfies her.
Fortunately, lavender has a long flowering period. If you give Liulicang a few more months, it will finally bloom, right?
