It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 556 Su Ying's Engagement
Early the next morning, Su Rui called Li Zhi and told what might happen in the future, "Li Zhi, what you signed is a contract of living, which has advantages and disadvantages."

"The advantage is that if you want to leave our Meng Mansion in the future, you can leave after paying enough money. The disadvantage is... hey, when you get up, don't keep kneeling."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhi knelt down and kowtowed, then raised his head to look at Su Rui, and said very seriously, "Ma'am, this servant wants to sign a death contract!"

"Okay, then you go to the housekeeper to sign the death contract."

Su Rui looked at Li Zhi for a moment, and felt very sorry, such a transparent girl, why did the Li family not cherish her so much?What a pity, what a pity...

Li Zhi stood up, and made a slightly more correct salute to Su Rui than yesterday, "I'm going now, servant girl."

Su Rui looked at Li Zhi who was walking away, and thought of what Mrs. Peng and Mrs. Feng asked her to do, so she said to Xiao Tao who was beside her, "Xiao Tao, go and call Mrs. Ye over, and just say that I have something to look for her."

After hearing the whole story, Ye Xiu was stunned for a moment, and quickly waved her hand to refuse, "No, no, ma'am, how can I be a teacher for Miss Guanjia? No, it's not suitable!"

Su Rui smiled gently, "Sister-in-law Ye, don't belittle yourself, there is nothing inappropriate for you to be an apprentice of a lady from the official family."

Ye Xiu hesitated, "But, I am..."

Su Rui laughed, "You are my servant again, it's just an employment relationship. Besides, if you didn't work in my family, it would be easy for you to open a shop and accept apprentices based on your craftsmanship."

Ye Xiu looked at Su Rui with some unconfidence, "I, can I really?"

Su Rui smiled, "Of course."

Ye Xiu believed Su Rui's words, heard the words and said courageously, "Then, then I'll accept it..."

Su Rui nodded, "Well, I will send someone to inform Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Peng."

Ye Xiu asked tentatively, "Madam, what do I need to prepare?"

Su Rui felt the baby in her stomach moving, and put her hands on her stomach to comfort her, and she answered after a while, "Since you are a teacher, you must be given a gift, um, you don't need any expensive things. Just whatever pouches you embroidered, handkerchiefs, whatever.”

"As long as you think about it, it's fine."

"I see."

Ye Xiu understood, she thought about the various embroidered objects she had saved, and thought about choosing which two to give to the two official ladies.

The next day, Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Peng brought their young lady to the Meng Mansion. Under the witness of Su Rui, they solemnly paid homage to their teacher. Ye Xiu was not stingy, and gave Peng Yin and Feng Yuehua her own double-sided embroidered fan.

Soon it was the day before Su Ying's engagement day, and Su Rui was extremely busy. Suddenly, she heard a servant come in to report that a relative from Sujia Village came to the Meng Mansion. Although she was confused, she hurriedly asked someone to come in. .

"Aunt Zhao, Aunt Zhao, Aunt Third, Aunt Hua, Aunt Lin, sisters-in-law, younger siblings, why are you here?"

Zhao walked into Su Rui cheerfully, held her hand, and looked at her belly, "Ying'er is engaged, why don't we come?"

Mrs. Wang, "Yes, getting married is a big deal. As elders, we must come."

Mrs. Zhao touched Su Rui's stomach with a smile, "Girl Rui, your belly is not small..."

"Well, in recent days, my stomach has grown rapidly."

Su Rui looked at her stomach, and now she couldn't see her toes when she was standing.

Hua Shi also looked up and down, and pondered, "I think Miss Rui is pregnant with a boy, right?"

Wang agrees, "Well, with a pointed belly, it does look like a boy."

Mrs. Lin held the hand of Mrs. He's son and asked, "Yongjun, do you see if your Aunt Rui is a younger brother or a younger sister?"

Su Yongjun has just turned one year old, and he still can't speak clearly, "Brother, younger brother."

Mrs. Zhao laughed when she heard the words, "Oh, Yongjun said he was the younger brother? Then he must be the younger brother!"

"..."

Su Rui was speechless, she wanted to help her forehead, why did this start again?

Afraid that they would continue to talk about her stomach, he hurriedly invited everyone to sit down, and arranged for the maids to serve tea and snacks, "How did you come here?"

Mrs. Zhao took a sip of tea, "We came with the convoy that came to Zhoucheng, with five hundred Wen for each adult and two hundred Wen for each child."

Su Rui raised her head in doubt. Pingyang County only has loose jobs, and there is really no convoy dedicated to running the city, "Huh? Now there is a convoy dedicated to the city in the county?"

Hua nodded, "Yes, it was established by the county magistrate."

Mrs. Lin thought for a while and said, "To be exact, the magistrate of the county felt that our county, relying on dragging people to make a living, was too scattered, asking for prices indiscriminately, and it was not safe. So he simply gathered them together and formed Pingyang County The car dealership has a fixed point every day, and there are convoys heading to other counties or state cities!"

Mrs. Zou grabbed the hand of her little daughter who wanted to reach for the dim sum on the table, "The price is also fixed, and a regulation has been issued that prohibits raising the toll, or you will be fined fifty times the money.!"

Su Rui's eyes widened, thinking that the county magistrate in Pingyang County really can't look at the surface, she still remembers the county magistrate's problem of getting nervous when he sees people...

Everyone had dinner together, and Su Chenwei and Su Chenliang came to pick up Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Hua. Su Rui hadn't seen anyone from Sujia Village for a long time, so she invited, "Aunt Zhao, Aunt Hua, and Mrs. Chen Sister-in-law Kun, sister-in-law Chenliang, sister-in-law Chenjie, brothers and sisters Chenwei, don't leave at night, stay here together..."

Mrs. Zhao refused, "Your sister-in-law Chen Kun and I will go live at your Brother Chen Liang's house."

Hua also refused, "Let's go live at Chen Wei's house and come over early tomorrow morning."

Su Rui sighed, "Okay, then you should be careful on the way back."

Su Chenliang laughed, "Sister Rui, Chen Wei and I are both members of the patrol team, who dares to find trouble with us? Don't worry..."

For the engagement ceremony, Su Ying didn't need to show up, she just waited in the bedroom for the marriage letter from the front yard, and wrote her name on it.

Meng Mingzhou led the pregnant Su Rui, Su Chenrui and other siblings, as well as the relatives who came to the engagement ceremony, to the gate of the front yard to personally welcome the official media and the relatives of the Ren family.

After a busy day, Su Rui and the others dispersed, and when they returned to the bedroom in the main courtyard, they lay limp and motionless, "Ah, I'm almost exhausted."

Hearing this, Meng Mingzhou stepped forward to take off Su Rui's shoes and saw that her feet were swollen. He felt distressed, and blamed him, "I told you to rest. I'll entertain you. It's just an engagement ceremony. Can you come out?" You can come forward, but if you don’t listen to me, you have to play in person.”

Su Rui, "...
