Chapter 84 Old people and old things
Ding Fuguang walked all the way through the gate. As soon as he reached the second gate, Ding's wife Wang, her two sons, and her eldest daughter-in-law greeted him enthusiastically.

When they met, Mrs. Wang was extremely excited when she saw her husband, who had not returned home for half a month. She hurriedly greeted him and said, "Thank you for your hard work, sir. Why didn't you say anything in advance so that Zhen'er could pick you up at the city gate?"

Ding Fuguang's eldest son Ding Zhenye and second son Ding Fengye also shouted hello to their father.

Ding Fuguang looked at his family members with a deep smile, "It's not like I'm coming back from a long trip, so what's the big deal? Are you all fine at home? It's nothing big, right?"

While asking questions, he walked to Mrs. Ding's yard.

The two brothers Ding Zhenye raised their heels and responded to Ding Fuguang's words, talking about the recent situation in the past half month.

Here, Mrs. Wang was half a step behind and told the kitchen to cook a few more dishes, all of which would be what the master likes. The dinner would be served in the old lady’s courtyard.

After the explanation, I caught up and saw the master and his sons chatting happily while walking, and he couldn't help but smile.

When he arrived at Mrs. Ding's courtyard, Ding Fuguang kowtowed to Mrs. Ding firmly and said hello.

Mrs. Ding was extremely excited when she saw that her son was back.

The whole family sat down in an orderly manner and talked about their daily routine.

Not long after, the grandchildren who had asked the maid to pick them up also arrived in front of Ding Fuguang.

The eldest son has been married for five years and has a son and a daughter. The grandson is smart and smart, and the granddaughter is cute and cute. Ding Fuguang likes her very much.

That night, the Ding family's dinner was more lively and enjoyable than usual.

After dinner, Ding Fuguang asked his sons to leave and then dismissed the maid. Only Ding Fuguang, Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Wang were left in the room.

Ding Fuguang looked at Mrs. Ding and asked, "Mom, do you still remember that cousin's daughter?"

Listening to her son talking about old friends and past events, Mrs. Ding also had a hint of reminiscence in her brows.

As I get older, I like to think back more and more about the past. No matter whether it is good or bad, I will always think of it.

"I remember that we were kicked out of Lao Beicun back then. Thanks to your cousin's help to open the way and settled in the city, I was able to earn some money by washing people's clothes, so as not to call our mother-in-law. starve.

It's a pity that later on you finally became famous and your cousin-in-law also passed away. We couldn't repay him! Fortunately, you helped your cousin and the kindness was not wasted.

I remember that your cousin's uncle's daughter was married in Xiahe Village. By the way, she is so close. Even though she is a distant cousin, you can come and visit your cousin when you are free. , but you suddenly asked what happened? "

Ding Fuguang immediately said: "Mom, that's exactly what I want to say. Recently, I always think of things in the past, and I can't help but think of my cousin. You said that of his two children, my cousin is no longer here, but my cousin is still alive." While I was still alive, I thought, if it is convenient for you, mother, why not find a day for us to come visit you and make this relationship work, what do you think?"

As Old Mrs. Ding listened, she could vaguely recall her cousin's appearance as a young girl deep in her memory, but she hadn't seen her for decades, and now that she had seen her, she might not even be able to recognize her.

She is old and doesn't like to move around, but if she wanted to move around with her cousin, she thought it would be an exciting thing.

He nodded immediately, "Okay, let's do it the day before Laba. Just in time, I can make some Laba porridge and bring it to the door."

When the time comes, she will cook it herself. The Laba porridge she makes is different from the one made in their hometown, and it is different from the one in the city. When my cousin sees it, she will definitely like it.

After deciding the matter, Ding Fuguang chatted with Mrs. Ding for a while, and then resigned after seeing that it was getting late.

I went back to the main courtyard with Mrs. Wang, where I was changed into clothes by Mrs. Wang and her maid, washed my hands and face, and carefully ironed my feet. Ding Fuguang leaned on the bed, holding the hand stove in his hand, and sighed comfortably.

Mrs. Wang had served her husband and had gone to wash herself. Now she was sitting in front of the dressing mirror disassembling jewelry.

When Ding Fuguang married his wife, he was just a young apprentice. At that time, Wang's father came to the warehouse to sell mountain goods on his back. He fell in love with Ding Fuguang at first sight. They went back and forth, and asked someone to help them find a matchmaker, and the marriage was achieved. .

At that time, Ding Fuguang never thought that he would be so prosperous one day in the future. He only thought that Wang was virtuous and could manage the family. It was already a blessing for him to marry such a daughter-in-law.

At that time, Ms. Wang never thought that her apprentice husband would one day earn such a fortune.

When she was young, she had too many hard times. When her family had money, Wang liked to buy some gold jewelry. Ding Fuguang couldn't help but laugh when he took off the shiny gold earrings and hairpins and bracelets one by one.

"Go and visit Dingfeng Tower tomorrow and pick out some accessories suitable for a girl to wear."

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she turned around and asked, "Are you giving some greeting gifts to the children from your cousin's house?"

Ding Fuguang nodded: "Prepare some, but in addition to these, choose a thicker gift to prepare."

Wang was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but ask more: "What do you mean, Master?"

Ding Fuguang only said: "I am of great use, you will know when the time comes."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang became even more suspicious. Her mind was spinning, and she really couldn't imagine why her husband had asked for another gift.

Accessories worn by little girls
Wang's heart skipped a beat, "Master, could it be that you fell in love with some girl because of Feng'er?"

The second son is now fifteen years old. In the past six months, she has also begun to pay attention to this matter, and has mentioned it to the master several times.

I originally thought that if Feng'er was successful in studying, he would not be in a hurry to get married. Unfortunately, Feng'er was unable to study. He thought he would follow the path of his brother and ask the master to look after him and give him a shop to learn slowly.

In this way, the marriage does not need to be delayed and can be seen together.

Ding Fuguang didn't want to say more first, but when he got there, he smiled and said, "We have found a suitable candidate. She is the girl from the cousin's family that we are going to visit this time."

Her son's marriage was a big deal. When Wang heard that her husband had been chosen, but she hadn't touched any door yet, she couldn't help but get anxious, "Is this cousin's family? Which family is that?"

She didn't know this cousin either, thinking that her mother-in-law seemed to have said she would marry in some Xiahe village just now.

Is that a girl from the village?
Sure enough, I heard my husband say: "Although this child comes from a farmer's family, he is calm and articulate. He is capable of taking on tasks. I think it is good! He is better than the girls you mentioned earlier."

"Farmer?" Wang became anxious upon hearing this and couldn't understand a word of the suffix, "Master, you said you want to marry our Feng'er a girl from a farmer's family?"

Ding Fuguang said indifferently: "What's wrong with the farmers? I am from a farmer's family, isn't your mother's family also from a farmer's family?"

Wang's breath choked in her chest and she was speechless.

It's true that they were born into farmers, but the Ding family has long ceased to be farmers after the master made his fortune nearly thirty years ago!
The eldest son married the daughter of Chen's dye house. When the second son married, he only married a girl from a farmer's family. Isn't this a joke?

Not only was it a joke, but what did the second son think?
"No! Master, this can't be done!"
