Rebirth of the Poor Girl

For a few days a year, Tian Minyan and the others are busy going to various seats to pay New Year's greetings, and on some days they even go to two or three games a day. Before the year is over, they have gained a lot of weight, fat and fat, Tian Minyan shouted Can't stand it.

On the night of the eighth day, when they came back from the town, the whole family drank tea and talked in the main room.

"It's only been a few days, but it's still comfortable to go back to my own home. This water floor heater is really a good thing. It's warm and not dry. It's not comparable to the kang." Luo took a sip of tea and sighed authentically.

"It's always been said that extravagance is harder than simplicity, mother, you've become a spoiled child, and after a while, you'll be more stylish than those wealthy wives." Tian Minyan pursed her lips and smiled.

Luo Shi blushed slightly, and spat at her. Thinking of going to Henghe tomorrow, the smile on the corner of his mouth retracted.

"I'm going to Henghe tomorrow, tell me, what makeup should I add to Sister Zhuang?" Although she asked everyone, her eyes were indeed on Tian Huairen.

Tian Huairen noticed her gaze, swallowed the tea in his mouth, and said: "This has always been a human relationship between you and your daughter, and it's up to you to decide."

"Father, does my mother mean that it's enough to just add a needle?" Tian Minyan raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Ah?" Tian Huairen was taken aback for a moment, and then said foolishly, "Is it enough to just add needles?"

Seeing him like this, Luo Shi was really angry and funny, and laughed and scolded the idiot.

In fact, when it comes to adding makeup, wealthy people naturally don’t have to think about it. Add whatever you like, and you add preciousness to show you

Take each other seriously.But if they are poor, such as those who have eaten their first meal but not finished their meal, and have to ask someone to borrow even a piece of thread, there are really some people who add a bag of needles and threads, who is called poor.

Of course, Tian Minyan and the others will not just add a needle, after all, life is not that poor, but it is not particularly rich (Tian Minyan thinks so, what is a house, a car (carriage) and servants? , The deposit is less than [-] taels, what kind of wealth is it? If you really treat silver as money, that is wealth. No, you can be regarded as an upstart. Now, she can't even be called an upstart.)

Tian Minyan doesn't think that she is a nouveau riche, but she is also much better than ordinary farmers, so adding makeup will not be too poor, but it will not be expensive.

"Back when Sister Qing got married, the makeup we put on was two bolts of cloth and one foot of satin, so now?" Luo Shi thought about the makeup that Tian Minqing put on when she got married last year.

"No." Tian Minyan was the first to shake her head. Seeing everyone looking at her, she said, "Even though Second Sister was married at that time, she was only carried to be a concubine. If we still send it like this, people will only say that we are ignorant."

Luo Shi was startled, his face changed slightly, he twitched the corners of his mouth, and said, "What you said is true, but I'm fooled."

"But since the second sister didn't add much at the beginning, it doesn't need to be expensive to add makeup to the eldest sister now. I think it's better to add two bolts of silk and a silver hairpin. Mother, the hairpin you made before is not too expensive. Too fancy? Just add that."

"Huh? Doesn't this sound good?"

Luo Shi was a little hesitant. Although the hairpin was not on his body, it was originally prepared for himself, but it was too fancy, so he didn't wear it. Will it be too ugly to send it to add makeup this time?

Tian Minyan smiled, and said: "Mother, what's the point? Adding a silver hairpin is considered precious. Besides, you are just an aunt, and our family is not a wealthy family. Silver hairpins are enough. "

What she said is the truth, they are just peasant households, adding a silver hairpin is very respectable, some families, when they can only pull a few feet of cloth, even add some sewing kits or something, and, add makeup This is to do whatever you want, there is no rule that when you are rich, you must add valuables, it depends on love.

As for Tian Minzhuang and Chen's liking or not, that's their business. The third room only needs to do their part well and not be criticized by others.

Luo Shi thought that when his younger brother got married in the past, the makeup he put on was worse than this, so he agreed.

The whole family talked for a while, and each washed up and went back to the house to rest without mentioning it.

On the ninth day of the ninth day, Henghe Tianzhai.

Mrs. Chen was dressed in a new dress, and greeted all visitors with a smile on her face. The visitors all added makeup to Sister Zhuang, so she must put on a smiling face.

As for Tian Minzhuang, sitting in his temporary boudoir, he forced a smile on his face and talked to those ladies.

"Don't be fooled. I heard that Yuan Xiucai is an honest person. Although his family is down and down, he still has a reputation. If you marry him, you will be a good lady. His mother is weak, so it's not up to you to be the head of the family." Lord? Maybe if you want to win that scholar, after a few years, he will earn you some money by passing the exam." A woman in concubine-colored clothes covered her mouth and said.

Tian Minzhuang laughed dryly, but the handkerchief in his hand was twisted into a ball of twists, he secretly resented, what is this Li Yuxiu, just a little businessman's daughter, he dared to laugh at her.

"Sister Yuxiu said that a scholar is always better than a businessman. As you said, in the future you can really earn the title of a lady." She stabbed back with a smile on her face.

The smug smile on Li Yuxiu's face froze, and then she forced a smile and said yes, but she said in her heart, let's see how proud you are, you are only a down-and-out talent, no wonder you married with such a reputation.

"What are you talking about, as long as Yuan Xiucai treats you well, everything else is false." Said a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old in concubine-colored clothes.

"What Miss Pan said is true." Li Yuxiu hurriedly echoed, "I heard that Yuan Xiucai used to have a girl to serve her, and she asked Sister Zhuang to send that girl away immediately, which shows that the scholar attaches great importance to Sister Zhuang."

Tian Minzhuang's hands were clenched into fists, his pointed nails dug into his palms, his eyes were like poisonous snakes, and he stared at Li Yuxiu. This damn girl, she didn't want to open any pot, and she was deliberately trying to make things difficult for her.

Where did Yuan Xiucai get some girl to serve her? That girl was a distant niece of his mother's. The scene of Hetian Minzhuang happened.

Tian Minzhuang wanted to say that she was the daughter of the county magistrate, and how could she be compared to a widowed and lonely distant cousin. Right now, he found someone else to marry the cousin, but everyone said that the two of them had a relationship. Tian Minzhuang specially sent someone to investigate, but Yuan Xiucai refused to admit it and made a sworn oath.

But this time, Li Yuxiu told her about it. Isn't that a slap in the face?

This Miss Pan is not a good person either, because she is the daughter of the county magistrate, she thinks she is superior to others, she is obviously a girl who doesn't understand anything, and she even claims to be a talented girl, and she always beats herself up, hum.

As long as I treat you well, everything else is false?It's true that standing and talking doesn't hurt your back. Who doesn't know that the magistrate's wife chooses her son-in-law, and the first thing she looks at is family background?And she herself said that she wouldn't marry a good son from a non-Pianpian family?It's ridiculous, I really think of myself as an onion.

But even so, she just couldn't offend her, she had to flatter her, otherwise, wouldn't daddy know if he would be put on shoes?

The young lady who was watching the excitement from the side saw that Tian Minzhuang's face was not right, and she hurriedly came out to make peace, and said with a smile: "Don't talk about that, it will be a good day for sister Zhuang soon, sister, let us see your marriage Clothes."

Tian Minzhuang glanced at her, um, this Miss Song winked a little, she walked down the steps, and said lightly: "It's nothing to look at, I just embroidered a few stitches by myself."

That's what she said, but she still asked the maid to take out the wedding dress she hung in the inner room for everyone to see.

"It's really well embroidered." Miss Song chuckled, but the others didn't think so, but they didn't express their opinions, they just nodded with a smile.

In fact, it is said that the wedding dress is embroidered by oneself. Those who are proficient in women's red may embroider by themselves, and those who are not proficient are often embroidered by maids and women and then added a few stitches by themselves, which can be regarded as self-embroidered.

Tian Minzhuang's wedding dress was actually not made with the help of a maid, but bought from Xi's shop, but he added stitches himself.

Everyone knew it in their hearts, but they wouldn't really say it out. After all, no matter how humble Tian Minzhuang was, she was also the daughter of the county magistrate. In terms of status, except for Miss Pan, she was considered the highest status in this room.

You praised me every word, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively again. At this time, a maid came in and said to Tian Minzhuang: "Miss, the third master and the third wife's family are here."

What third master?Tian Minzhuang was very stunned, and realized after a while that it turned out to be his third uncle, hey, what kind of third master, isn't he just a poor guy?

"Oh? Are they all here?" She rolled her eyelids indifferently.

"Yes, I'm greeting you at the old man's house now."

"The third master you mentioned is Lord Tian's third younger brother?" Li Yuxiu asked the servant girl, "The room where the monosodium glutamate is made?"

Pan Min'er sat up straight after hearing this, her eyelids moved, and she stared straight at the maid.

She had heard from her father and mother a long time ago that the third house of the Tian family is so great, and it only manages rice fields to raise fish, which is praised by the emperor, and it is also engaged in the monosodium glutamate business. If they can be won over to settle in Henghe, If they fiddle with any crops, they don't have to worry about political achievements.

But my mother was thinking about their family's business. What kind of monosodium glutamate, just such a seasoning, sells so much money. If I can do this business, why worry about not getting money?

But this Tian Minyan is also very trusting, invited twice, but she didn't come, hmph, isn't she just a country girl, unexpectedly so trusting?

So, after listening to the servant girl's words, she wanted to see what capital this family had to be so arrogant!

"It's not them, and they are nothing worthwhile. They are just a country girl, or at worst a merchant's daughter, who won't be able to make it to the big stage." Tian Minzhuang said mockingly.

Li Yuxiu's complexion changed when she heard her words, she was a little confused, these words were clearly meant for herself, she was really short-sighted, she offended others as soon as she opened her mouth, there are several businessmen's daughters in this room!

So, after Tian Minzhuang said this, the room became somewhat quiet, and Pan Min'er showed a hint of disdain.

Tian Minzhuang also seemed to realize that he had offended others, so he hurriedly laughed and said: "Don't tell me, I'm not talking about you. My girl is just a wild girl, going up and down to fish in the fields, extremely rough, no idea With polite winks."

"I heard that life in the country is quite interesting, Sister Zhuang, why don't you ask her to come over and tell us?" Miss Song said with a smile.

Tian Minzhuang was a little hesitant, apparently unwilling, and said embarrassingly: "I'm afraid I'll offend you."

"What's the matter, can't she grow three heads and six arms?" Pan Min'er also wanted to see who the hell was, pretending to be scallions like this.

The people with the highest status here spoke up, Tian Minzhuang couldn't say anything more, so he said: "Okay." Then, he asked the servant girl to call Tian Minyan to speak.

At this time, Tian Minyan's family was in the main room greeting Mr. Tian and Mrs. Jiang for a New Year greeting, making Mr. Tian beam with joy.

"Xiao Wu, come here, Grandpa." The old man beckoned Xiao Wu to come forward.

Xiao Wu rushed over, the old man wanted to pick him up to the edge of the kang, but found that he was so heavy that he couldn't hold him, he couldn't help being a little embarrassed and lonely, and finally patted Xiao Wu's head instead.

"In the blink of an eye, all of you have grown up. Come on, this is a red envelope from Grandpa." The old man took out a red envelope from his side and stuffed it in his hand, and asked Tian Minyan and the others to come forward: "Brother Rui, Miss Yan, You have too."

Tian Minyan stepped forward to pick it up, thanked with a faint smile, and stood still at the side, but his eyes swept over the faces of the people in the room.

Mrs. Li looked at her family members with gloomy eyes, envious and jealous at the same time, almost drooling.

Jiang Shi, on the other hand, stared at Luo Shi with resentment and unwillingness in his eyes, with faint dissatisfaction and displeasure.

As for Mrs. Chen, she was a little surprised, and there was also some jealousy and envy that flashed inadvertently.

While the others were either dumbfounded or stunned, with complicated eyes, Tian Minyan lowered her eyelids, looked at the string of jadeite beads in her hand, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently curled up.

Since they came to Henghe as guests, they naturally wouldn't dress poorly. First, it was unnecessary and no one would believe it. Second, she didn't care if others looked at her highly, but she still wanted to let people know that the third house of the Tian family, Today is not what it used to be, and not any cat or dog can be bullied.

Therefore, even if they don't dress luxuriously, they are more decent than ordinary farmers, or even shopkeepers. At least, they are much richer than Li's and Jiang's.

Tian Minyan glanced at Jiang Shi again, and smiled inwardly, maybe she wanted to pull all the things off Luo Shi's body at this moment.

After asking Ann, the old man asked about the affairs of the countryside, Tian Huairen replied respectfully, the topic was a bit dull, but at this moment, a maid said, Sister Zhuang asked Tian Minyan to talk and play.

"Go, you sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, and you don't have much time to be a girl. There are a few girls over there who are talking to Sister Zhuang, and have a good time." Chen laughed hurriedly. , and said to the girl: "Serve Miss San carefully, or watch your legs carefully."

Tian Minyan narrowed her eyes, what could have happened?When did she get close to sister Zhuang?
