Chapter 49 Integration
It can be said that Liu Jiatun and his party had achieved a lot. On the way back, Chen Xiuyan and the others sat carefully around the wooden box and went back.

Luo Mingqing and Luo Mingxin once again realized how favored their little aunt was in her natal family. She had just accompanied her as a dowry, and she took a lot of it when she returned home. It was a big box to see her grandpa. Who is so generous to her married daughter.

When she got home, Chen Xiuyan began to sort out the things in the box. When she saw the beautifully woven bamboo mat, there were tuanfans and cattail fans, as well as two bolts of delicate cloth, beads, hair ties, etc. There are quite a lot of things suitable for women to wear, such as rouge and gouache. They are also complete, there are two pairs of exquisitely embroidered shoes, and some pens, ink, paper and inkstones. This is because I know the situation of the Luo family. In addition, there are various ointments and medicine bags made by my grandfather, among which the most precious It is a box of silver noodles.

Chen Xiuyan more or less understood that her grandfather's family gave such a heavy gift, and her Gastrodia elata was a meritorious service.

When adding makeup before, my grandpa’s family had already sent silver bracelets, silver earrings, and large cotton quilts. This time, the head and face are more delicate, with a complete range of hairpins, back combs, heart picks, earrings, and hoops.

The whole set is in the style of plum blossoms, but the plum blossoms of each piece are different, some are in bud, some are fully bloomed, and even the stamens are carefully used to make them realistic. Chen Xiuyan feels the ancient craftsman's craftsmanship.

Putting the jewelry into the space, I picked out two kinds of beads and hair ties, and then took a piece of cloth to Luo Mingxin's room.

"Little aunt, how can you give me so much, I..."

"Keep what my little aunt gave you." Chen Xiuyan put the things down without saying a word, "The main reason is that I am not very good at being a female celebrity, so I can only send cloth."

"Like a coat, is there anyone in our village who has a good handicraft?" Chen Xiuyan sat down and poured a glass of water for herself, and did not forget to pour it for Luo Mingxin.

"I didn't do it very well on the inside, and others can't see it, but I have to be more particular about the outside." Chen Xiuyan said bluntly.

Luo Mingxin was a little amused, "Little aunt, just give it to me. I'm a pretty good girl, and I learned from Granny Su. Not only is Granny Su excellent at cooking, but she's also outstanding at cooking. Grandma Yuan's clothes are all made by Granny Su. .”

"I have been studying with Granny Su for two years. I am not good at embroidery yet, but I am good at cutting and making. The clothes I wear, as well as those of my uncle, have been made by me in the past two years."

"Wow, you're amazing." Chen Xiuyan praised from the bottom of her heart, making Luo Mingxin blush a little.

"Little aunt, I'll make your clothes for you." Luo Mingxin took up the task with confidence.

"It's so kind to be bright." Chen Xiuyan patted her head lovingly, feeling distressed for no reason. A ten-year-old girl who can make clothes can only mean that her life is not good.

"However, my little aunt has to be motivated. How about we teach my little aunt how to make clothes in the future?" Chen Xiuyan said with a smile, "Your uncle has a wife now."

After Chen Xiuyan said this, she pointed at herself, "I can't marry a daughter-in-law, and I can't even wear a dress made by a daughter-in-law. If it spreads, I'll be ashamed."

"Hey, it's true that I didn't study hard before, but fortunately I'm smart." Chen Xiuyan spared no effort to praise herself, "I didn't cook when I was at home, but now I still cook very well."

"In the future, I will make clothes. I will make one for you, my mother and grandfather." Chen Xiuyan has already set a small goal for herself.

Luo Mingxin covered his mouth and laughed, and Luo Wenqian, who heard Chen Xiuyan's words outside the door, was also laughing, already fantasizing about the pride of wearing the clothes made by his wife.

"Then let's put it this way, from now on we will make clothes for one hour every day, and the time will be set by our Master Mingxin."

Luo Ming stared at Chen Xiuyan reproachfully, but he felt happy for some reason.

Chen Xiuyan found something for Luo Mingxin to do, so she should be in a better mood. When she opened the door and saw Luo Wenqian standing outside, Chen Xiuyan raised her eyebrows.

Seeing that he was smiling as if picking up silver, he must have heard his own words, "Hey, does Luo Xiucai really want to wear the new clothes made by his wife?"

Chen Xiuyan approached him and pestered him, until he blushed until he let go.

Chen Xiuyan divided the pen, ink, paper and inkstone into four, one for herself, one for Luo Wenqian, and the other two for Luo Mingchu and Luo Mingnian.

Everyone had presents, and Luo Mingqing couldn't leave them. Thinking that he likes to settle accounts, he gave him the small abacus in his dowry, plus the bound blank booklet.

The next day, Chen Xiuyan made a big pot of porridge, served with Xuanruan white flour steamed buns, and made four extra steamed buns. Luo Mingchu and Luo Mingnian took them to the school two by one.

Chen Xiuyan has gradually integrated into the Luo family. In the morning, she will follow Luo Mingxin and the others to hunt pigweed, feed chickens and pigs, and then wash and cook.

The Luo family members are very self-disciplined and self-conscious. They wash their own clothes, and occasionally they help each other to do the laundry, but those who don't do the laundry tend to do more in other areas. Chen Xiuyan likes this way of sharing household chores.

"Mingxin, I'm going to Aunt Yuan's house. Do you want to go with me?" Chen Xiuyan picked out some small things to give to Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Su. Thinking that Luo Ni'er is now at Mrs. Yuan's house, she deliberately wanted to call Luo Mingxin superior.

There was a trace of struggle on Luo Mingxin's face, "Little aunt, my uncle told me not to go out for half a month, so I won't go out for now. I will go to Uncle Luo Shi's house and apologize to my aunt before I go."

"Well, then go in half a month." Chen Xiuyan didn't force herself, and went by herself.

Zhuang Ya opened the door, Chen Xiuyan smiled and handed over a pair of bead flowers, Zhuang Ya turned around and saw Granny Su nodded before accepting it with a smile and thanking her.

What Chen Xiuyan prepared for Mrs. Yuan was a round fan with lotus embroidery on it, and the fabric was also made of silk, which was very delicate; for Granny Su, it was medicinal materials. Not many, but a lot of variety.

"As expected of the hometown of medicine, Liujiatun has gastrodia elata." Granny Su liked the gift Chen Xiuyan gave her very much. "The floods in Qianxi Prefecture are serious, and gastrodia elata is out of stock."

"At noon, I'll make a gastrodia stewed chicken for you." Granny Su chose for a while, only took out one gastrodia, and put away the remaining two.

"Grandma Su, you can feed the Gastrodia stewed chicken to Aunt Yuan and the others, I..."

"Don't worry, your pastries are indispensable." Granny Su glanced at Chen Xiuyan, and smiled angrily, "The Gastrodia stewed chicken is also cheaper for you, and I will let the strong girl bring a bowl over."

"Grandma Su is really kind-hearted and knows me very well." Chen Xiuyan burst out with good words because of her stammer, which made Granny Su smile.

"Xiuyan, you should come here more often." Zhuang Ya said with a smile, "Every time you come, Granny Su will laugh."

"Sister Zhuang, I have to teach you a hand." Chen Xiuyan hooked Zhuang Ya's shoulder.

"Don't be a bad girl." Granny Su glared at Chen Xiuyan angrily, and then invited her out of the house.
