Chapter 20 Dowry

Ji Xinmiao felt that there was something wrong with Ji Lanlan's eyes, did she think she was unwilling?

"Second Aunt, it's not that Miao'er doesn't want to pick up fruit trees for you, it's really too late for the season."

Seeing her niece's careful look, Ji Lanlan knew that she had misunderstood her meaning and hurriedly said, "Miao'er, Second Aunt doesn't believe you, but is surprised that you are so thoughtful at such a young age. You are mine. My niece, the aunt is blood relative to you, how can I not believe it? Don't think that the second aunt is just a narrow-minded person. "

Ji Xinmiao blushed and said, "Second aunt, it's my niece who is being petty. My three aunts are the closest relatives of my nieces."

When Wang married into Ji's family, the second aunt Ji Lanlan was not yet married, because the two got along very well because of her temperament.Seeing that there was a gap between the aunt and nephew, she hurriedly said: "Miaoer, your second aunt liked you the most before she got married. There is not a day when you and Xinchun do not follow behind your second and third aunts. Everyone says You two are the little tails of your aunts. And you had a sweet mouth when you were young, and almost all of the delicious food from your aunts fell into your little mouth."

Ji Xinmiao was even more embarrassed, she hurried forward and took Ji Lanlan's arm and said, "Second Aunt, don't be angry with Miaoer, Miaoer misunderstood you."

This niece has never been close to her since she came back. Ji Lanlan reached out and patted her hand and said, "Why would Second Aunt be angry with you? You are my second Aunt's half daughter. You were the closest to me when I was young. Before the second aunt got married, you slept with me eight out of ten days. You must not remember what happened when you were a child. When the second aunt got married, you were the one who cried fiercely. "

"Hehehe..." Mrs. Wang also remembered that time. The eldest daughter was only four years old. On the day the second aunt got married, she insisted on holding Ji Lanlan to prevent her from getting into the bullock cart and crying desperately: "Miaoer, you were so interesting at that time, listen Others said that your second aunt would not sleep with you after she got married, so you insisted not to let her second aunt marry. You also said that your second aunt is so annoying, she would marry at every turn, and Miao Er didn't marry, so your second aunt would marry off by herself gone."

"Hahaha, second sister-in-law, Miao'er was really sweet back then. I was not used to it for a long time after I got married. I always felt that something was missing without this follower." Ji Lanlan heard her sister-in-law mention the past , She laughed so hard that tears almost came out.

Even if it wasn't her, Ji Xinmiao also cooperated and said: "Mother, you don't want to expose your daughter's old background with you. I was not young at that time, so I don't know what it means to be married or not."

Several people entered the main room while talking.

The main room is a hall, with hatchbacks on the left and right.

An old woman was at the entrance of the hall with her child, and Mrs. Wang immediately called out affectionately: "Hello, mother."

The old woman said with a smile on her face, "Oh, is her second aunt here? This is really rare. I haven't seen you for a long time? Is this your eldest daughter?"

Ji Xinmiao felt that the old lady's enthusiasm was too fake, she called out politely and entered the room on the left with Ji Lanlan.

Ji Lanlan apologized and said to Wang: "Second sister-in-law, don't mind, my mother-in-law has thin eyes."

Wang said understandingly: "What did the second sister say? It's not that she has just become in-laws. How can the second sister-in-law not know the taste of your mother-in-law? It's okay, aren't you in charge of this family? I'm coming to my sister's house, where are you?" Why bother with her as an old man? Fortunately, your aunt is not like her, otherwise, Meier, I really don’t want to be in-laws with the Zhu family anymore.”

Ji Lanlan smiled helplessly: "Auntie is a good person, she is different from my mother-in-law. Second sister-in-law can rest assured about this, otherwise I would not dare to send my own niece to her home."

"Of course I know. You are her own aunt, but you can still harm her? Well, Miao'er, let's take a look at the layout that your second aunt bought for you. I have to buy some common household items in a while. There are still two months left." I'm about to get married, and I always feel that this day passes so quickly?" Wang said with emotion.

Ji Lanlan smiled: "Second sister-in-law, you are really reluctant to let your daughter get married."

"Yeah, the girl I raised was given to someone else out of thin air. How many mothers in this world are willing? Isn't there no way? Don't laugh at me. Wait for ten years, wait for Qiuqin and Qiuxiang has left the cabinet, let's see if you can smile."

"Second sister-in-law, don't worry about it. Girls are always going to marry, and no mother will raise her as an old girl at home because she doesn't want to have children. Besides, you have also found out about the Qi family. Miao'er is a sensible man, and he will live a good life after marrying him. After a year or so, I will bring you a big nephew back, and you will be grinning from the corner of your mouth."

"I hope this child is really like what I inquired about, otherwise, my heart will be restless for the rest of my life." Mrs. Wang said these words like Mrs. Xianglin.

Both sister-in-law and sister-in-law are talking about her marriage, but the protagonist Ji Xinmiao's psychology is more complicated. She thinks, maybe she needs to find a chance to meet this Qi Dalang. It really takes a wedding night in the bridal chamber to know his true face in Lushan. Can you bear it?
Ji Xinmiao didn't know that God was going to help her realize her wish soon...

The second aunt, Ji Lanlan, was very enthusiastic, and she unfolded all the prepared arrangements. The red quilt and five sons boarded the Ketu, the red pillows played with mandarin ducks, and the red sheets gave birth to a baby early. Everything was festive.

Ji Lanlan pointed to another set of pink decorations and said: "The color of that set is different, and the quality and weight of the cotton bone are the same. Your mother said that you never learned female reds in the Jiang family, and the second aunt took the lead." You have already embroidered face. You see if you like it, if you think the picture is not good, Second Aunt will go and change it for you. "

Before Ji Xinmiao could speak, Mrs. Wang immediately stopped her: "Her second aunt, you and her third aunt have spent a lot of money, and this can't be done without a tael of silver. I felt ashamed at first, you have to go again Toss, second sister-in-law, I'm going to feel uneasy."

Ji Lanlan said sincerely: "Second sister-in-law, I was able to marry my husband back then, but the second elder brother found someone to lead the thread. Without him caring about me as a younger sister, I would not have such a good life now. You must know that it is also because My third sister can marry my brother-in-law only after I married my husband-in-law. This is the fate that the second elder brother brought to our sisters. Don't say these polite words anymore. Now my sister's family can afford these and buy them for Miaoer. Wait for Meier When it comes to dowry, my second sister will do the same with me."

Wang knows that it is meaningless to say any more, as long as she keeps her sister-in-law's feelings in her heart, she will buy a richer dowry when her child grows up.

"Second Sister, let's go to the carpenter's shop. Your second elder brother has sent the wood to Uncle Chunlai's house for the big ones, and they will be ready in half a month. I just want to buy these small things. "

Ji Lanlan stood up and said, "Let's go after eating. The rice was cooked in the morning. I washed the dishes long ago and left them in the kitchen to fry."

Wang looked at the sky and said immediately: "Don't, it's still early for dinner, you just take me to the shop first, I'll choose slowly, you come back and cook first."

Ji Lanlan had no choice but to say: "Then let's go out. The boss Wang in that shop is also a friend of the husband. You just choose slowly. The husband has already said that he will give you a good price."

Several people walked out of the store and followed Ji Lanlan to the East Street.The pot shop and the kitchen shop are both on the same street. The one-and-a-half-story shops with the same color civil structure have similar facades, except for the items placed.

Walking to the door of a basin shop, Ji Xinmiao found that wooden basins, large and small, were piled up at the entrance.There were quite a few people in the store, and a person who looked like a boss came out to say hello: "Sister-in-law is here?"

Ji Lanlan pointed to Mrs. Wang and said, "This is my second sister-in-law. My husband-in-law told you a few days ago. Today she brought my niece to you to choose some dowry."

Boss Wang is not very old in his thirties, and he is also hearty: "Okay, okay, my brother told me a long time ago that my sister-in-law's family has a beautiful niece who is going to get married. There are many people in the store today, you go to the backyard to choose Well, most of the stuff is there."

A group of people came to the backyard, a lot of yards, wooden supplies everywhere, bathtubs, footbaths, washbasins, laundry tubs, toilets, and even cutting boards were all complete, making people dazzled.

"Miao'er, why don't you take a look at this footbath? It looks pretty, but it's a pity that it's made of pine wood." Wang happily picked up a wooden basin and handed it to Ji Xinmiao.

"Hey, Second Sister-in-Law, Miao'er, come and see this washbasin is pretty good. It's really comfortable to take a bath when it's cold in winter." Ji Lanlan pointed to a wooden bucket half a person's height.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the backyard, so Ji Xinmiao didn't expect her aunt to be so violent when she talked about taking a bath in broad daylight. Didn't they say that the ancients were very conservative?

Ji Xinmiao really has no illusions about this marriage and is not prepared to resist. Anyway, she just lives from one home to another, so she smiled disinterestedly: "Mother and aunt should choose, Miaoer is not very happy. understand these."

Ji Lanlan jokingly said: "My Miao'er is shy, because this is picking a dowry for you, are you embarrassed? Okay, since you said that, Auntie, I will decide with your mother."

Wang and Ji Lanlan discussed while choosing, while Ji Xinmiao waited quietly for them as a passer-by.Ji Xinmin and Ji Xinyan had already run away, they were going to buy silk flowers at the grocery store.But the two little girls didn't come back after walking away for a long time, Wang said worriedly: "Miao'er, those two girls went to Liuji's grocery store, why haven't they come back yet? Go and have a look first, then Liuji You can find it seven or eight shops away from the shop by going to the left."

Ji Xinmiao was also very bored, and immediately went out after listening to Wang's order.
