The rebirth of the sturdy and charming wife strikes

Chapter 577

"Grandma, is embroidery easy to learn?" Dong Xinran asked with sparkling eyes when he imagined how flowers would be embroidered on the purse in his hand.

"It's not difficult." Seeing that Dong Xinran was interested, Grandma Dong shook her head in fear that she would retreat.

"Then I'll learn. But I don't have much time at home."

"It's okay, aren't you resting at home these days? I'll teach you a few basic and commonly used embroidery methods. When you go with the embroidery thread and cloth head, practice your hands first. The main thing to learn this is patience." Grandma Dong couldn't hide her excitement. .

"Okay, then I'll give it a try." Dong Xinran nodded, she felt that she was not short of patience.

"If you can learn my skills, I will be relieved. At least there is someone who can inherit my embroidery techniques." The smile on Grandma Dong's face could no longer be stopped.She was happy, and Li Yan was also very happy. Looking at Dong Xinran, "If you can really learn this skill from your grandma, even if you learn half of it, you won't have to worry about running out of money for the rest of your life."

"Grandma, since you are afraid of losing your embroidery skills, why didn't you teach me before?" Dong Xinran was a little puzzled.

"In the early years of natural disasters, it was not easy for everyone to be busy filling their stomachs. Who can care about going to school?" This time, without Grandma Dong's words, Li Yan explained directly. After explaining, she looked at the time, "It's almost time, it's time to go shopping."

"That's just right, take this pouch with you each." Grandpa Dong folded the amulets carefully and put them into the pouch one by one. There are four finished pouches, so Dong Xinran naturally reached out and took one into the pouch. In his pocket, he said to Li Yan and Dong Xuezhan, "Mom and Dad, I also want to go shopping with you."

"What are you going to do? The vegetable market is in a mess. Why don't you just tell me what you want to eat and buy it for you?"

"I haven't visited the vegetable market for a long time." Dong Xinran was still thinking about asking about his family's old affairs, so he hugged Li Yan and acted like a baby, thinking about it. Finally, Grandpa Dong, Grandma Dong and Dong Xuezhan couldn't stand it anymore and opened their mouths. "If you want to go, ask her to go with you."

"Mom, tell me quickly, what's going on? Our family used to run a silk and satin factory with such a large scale. How come it's like this now? Didn't it mean that a skinny camel is better than a horse?" Big, but our house looks so-so." Dong Xinran couldn't wait to ask Li Yan after leaving the house for a long time.

"Seeing that you want to follow me to buy vegetables so much, I know that you just want to ask this." Li Yan smiled and looked at Dong Xuezhan.

"It's been so many years, and there's nothing hard to say. In fact, it was my grandfather, your great-grandpa, who left the alliance to avoid the war. But he did a little too much, and he didn't say anything before he left. Without saying a word, you sold the family property at a low price and left with your concubine and the children born to the concubine. Instead, you left behind the poor wife and the children born to the poor wife, your grandma and grandpa." Dong Xuechang said briefly Said in horror.

"Ah? But, but didn't you say that our family is several generations of poor peasants?" Dong Xinran was stunned.

"Ahem, isn't that because your grandma Zeng saw the situation was wrong and remarried later, she married a loyal servant in the original family and followed him back to her hometown, and even changed your grandfather's surname to cover up all the past It's gone." Dong Xuezhan was also a little bit embarrassed when talking about this past, "But then your grandma Zeng really had a real relationship with your grandpa Zeng later."

Dong Xinran was shocked: "Dad, so our surname is not Dong? What is our original surname?"

"The surname is Zhou, but your grandma Zeng said when she came, that your grandpa is not allowed to change the surname of your descendants back. From now on, our branch will be surnamed Dong." Dong Xuezhan said indifferently, "Your grandpa is a The filial son agreed without hesitation. Speaking of the family accident, although he was old and married, but I was not there at that time. He suffered a big change, and then he fell into a serious illness. Grandpa, I'm afraid he won't survive. If he dies, your grandma Zeng, they really can't say what will happen? So he also swore that our branch will always be surnamed Dong in the future, as a repayment. I will also continue the incense for your great-great-grandfather."

He: "Actually, according to me, there are too many bad things when you have too much money. When I heard your grandma talk about the past, I thought it was just like us now. We don't have to worry about food and clothing. It's just right."

"Satisfaction is always a joy." Dong Xinran also followed suit, "This sentence is often said by my grandfather. Now I finally understand what he meant when he said that."

"Xin Ran, you can just talk about it in front of us, but don't say it in front of your grandparents. Although this matter has passed for many years, it is actually a wound in your grandfather's heart that will still hurt if you touch it." Li Yan instructed Dong Xinran said.

"Mom, don't worry. Because we haven't experienced this, we don't think it's a big deal, but it's really bad enough for grandpa. I'm not blind, and I won't bring it up in front of him." ah."

Dong Xinran nodded, and she suddenly patted herself on the head again: "Why did I forget about this? Nuan Nuan told me yesterday not to keep the money, and buy more houses in the capital. I listen to what she means, and in the future Housing in the capital will definitely become more expensive. If you don’t buy it now, you may not be able to afford it in the future.”

"You child, just this memory, since this is what Nuan Nuan said, this is really a big deal. We have no regrets if we miss it." Before hearing her daughter talk about Nuan Nuan's experience and current status, Li Yan immediately felt that she The mention of her daughter probably came from nowhere, and it was definitely not groundless. She slapped Dong Xinran on the head angrily and cursed with a smile.

"Then our family still has the money to buy a house?" Dong Xinran asked enthusiastically.

"Why not? I haven't heard a saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse?" Li Yanbai gave Dong Xinran a look, "Although your great-grandfather ran away back then, he still had a lot of valuables at home that he didn't take away. Your grandma, don't underestimate her, she was young at the time, but her hand embroidery skills were very popular. That's why I said that if you can learn half of your grandma's skills, you won't have to worry about having nothing to eat. "

"Oh." Dong Xinran nodded and did not ask further questions.

The family has money, how much money?The thing is, Dong Xinran has never really cared about it. In her heart, the money doesn't really have much to do with her.I have seen too much of other people's family property, and most of it is inherited by boys.The sister-in-law also talked about this in her ear from time to time, and she also took it for granted that all the money in the family belonged to her brother and his sister-in-law.

The daughter didn't ask any more questions, so Li Yan didn't think about talking too much.If she doesn't talk about Dong Xuezhan, she won't talk about it.In his opinion, the child is still young, and the older generation of the family is still there, so why would anyone who is fine just mention to the child how much money the family has?
