Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 521
Li Xin lightly disclosed the matter of Yuanguang Temple that day, and Guan Wen didn't question him again.

The weather was getting colder and colder, Aunt Wei waited anxiously for Wei Xingzhi to come back, and Li Xin also started to get busy preparing for the dowry of his younger sister.

Aunt Wei has already said that, as soon as Wei Xingzhi came back, she asked him to marry his sister.

Before that, Li Xin had to prepare Amei's dowry things for her.Regardless of whether Wei Shusheng is admitted to Juren or not, this marriage is a certainty.

The Guan family is considered well-off now, and Guan Wen, the youngest sister's marriage, is also very concerned. He even discussed with Li Xin that the preparation time for the fur shop is about the same as Wei Shusheng's return. The plaque was hung up, and the date of opening was set on the same day.

Li Xin only smiled and said yes, but Aunt Wei still said that she needs to find someone to check the date, after all, the days that are suitable for marriage are not necessarily suitable for opening a business.

I found a Taoist priest to calculate the auspicious days of the zodiac, and decided to marry Amei and Wei Xingzhi on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

Wei Xingzhi will definitely be back in the New Year's Eve.

It's the middle of winter and moon, and Wei Xingzhi will be back by the end of the month.It is enough to spend a month preparing for the new house and getting married. Li Xin also figured it out. During this period of time, preparing the dowry and teaching my younger sister... that matter is also enough.

Speaking of this, Li Xin felt a little embarrassed.

Originally, this kind of thing of teaching husband and wife should be done by the mother, but Zhou died when Amei was born, and the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, so this burden fell on her.

It's not easy to tell Guan Wen about her embarrassment.

Although Guan Wen said his thoughts were delicate, such a thing about his daughter's family was unknown to a man like him.

After thinking about it, Li Xin still felt that he couldn't say that to his sister, so he made up his mind to ask Aunt Guan Wen to come back to teach her niece a few days before the wedding.

The sister-in-law said this to my sister-in-law... She will be ashamed in front of her sister in the future.After all, Guan is an elder and someone who has experienced it, so she shouldn't be embarrassed...

After staying for two days, Guan Wen went back to the town, and he had to discuss this matter with Axiu and Guan Quan.Li Xin wrote a letter to the trustee and took it to Ahe in Pingsha County, asking her to come back to watch the ceremony on the seventh day of the first lunar month.

It was rare for Hehua Village to calm down. Sun Xique didn't know if he had heard what Guan Wen said to Sun Pei, and he never came to disturb Li Xin again. Come outside for a stroll.

But everyone said that Master Jiang left without even asking for the final payment, which was treating Sun Xique like a shoestring.

Then he guessed that Sun Xique didn't go out much because she was hurt and depressed.

Li Xin shrugged.

Sun Xique should not have so-called "love" for Jiang Han, she just fell in love with Jiang Han, but Jiang Han ignored her, so she has been relentless.

Li Xin didn't know why she didn't make a fuss recently, but she was happy to see such a result.

Things at home were in full swing, and this time the marriage would naturally not be as shabby as when Guan Quan married Hu Yueying.

Guan Wen wants to do a good job, and Li Xin also wants to do a good job.

Leaving aside the fact that A-mei is Guan Wen's biological sister, A-mei has been with her for more than a year. Li Xin has watched her grow up from being shy and timid to being gentle and generous now. .I have never been very proficient in housework, and now I am able to do a job with ease in the kitchen.

Li Xin was proud.

Sometimes she couldn't help thinking that if she had a daughter, she would be raised like a younger sister.She likes girls who are quiet and not noisy, and she also likes girls who can handle things without being ostentatious.

Restraint is the ultimate publicity.

After Amei got married, there was one less helper in the family, and Li Xin was very reluctant.

I asked Xing'er to draw up the dowry list together, and after listening to Li Xin read what she had drawn up, Xing'er couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.

"You are marrying a girl, not a daughter-in-law. Why have you prepared everything for the man's family?"

Li Xin touched his head: "Is there?"

"How not?"

Xing'er glared at her and said: "The man's family should have prepared all those furniture and things. If the woman prepares too much, she will be said to be richer than the man. She is not marrying a girl, but a son-in-law... "

Li Xin hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that!"

"But it's true. The Wei family is not rich. Wei Shusheng should go to participate in this autumn. If you don't think about it, even if you don't empty out your family, it's almost the same."

Xing'er sighed, hesitated and said: "But Wei Shusheng is a scholar after all, if you carry things to his house with such a big fanfare, in his heart..."

Li Xin couldn't help but think of the scene when she married Guan Wen.

At that time, her mother Liu also wanted to get her a lot of things, but she persuaded her.At that time, she rationally told her mother that she should not just overwhelm the Guan family as soon as she got married, for fear of offending people, her mother finally listened to it, and instead quietly gave her money after marriage.

At that time, the Li family was not rich, and the eldest brother and the second younger brother made the dowry for her by themselves, and the fabrics they bought were all money from her mother.Although she had something on her back when she came back, she gave it to her parents and brothers, and she didn't keep much. Her mother also said that she would give her all the money.

Thinking about it now, the scene at this moment has been changed.She felt her mother's mood at that time.

Li Xin smiled at Xing'er, and said, "You're right, that's one. Second, I'm afraid that Wei Shusheng has read so many books, and he's a bit high-spirited and pedantic like a literati... isn't he Are you not good at policy theory but good at prose? Usually, it’s like this, if you follow the rhythm of the format, you’re afraid that he’s thinking wrong…”

Xing'er raised her eyebrows and said: "Then you should make up your mind, should you send it to the older ones or the younger ones?"

Li Xin scratched his head: "Why don't you ask Ah Wen? It's not for me to decide."

Guan Wen is in the town, so if you want to ask him, you must go to the town.

Li Xin said hello to A-mei, and then rushed to the town in the morning.

She only came to Guan Wen's fur shop once when Guan Wen settled down the shop, and she only knew that it was quite a big place, but she didn't go there after that, Guan Wen took care of everything by himself.

When she got to town, she almost couldn't find her way.

The leather goods shop is ready, just waiting for the goods to be arranged and opened.

Guan Wen was not in the shop at this time, but Guan Quan was busy with his abacus, and there were several people coming in and out of the shop to carry goods.

Li Xin coughed, but Guan Quan didn't pay attention, so Li Xin stepped forward and knocked on the high counter.

"Fourth brother."

Guan Quan hurriedly raised his head, saw that it was Li Xin and immediately smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is here?"

Li Xin nodded, Guan Quan put aside what he was doing and walked out quickly, shouting to the busy big men: "Don't be so busy, meet our boss's wife!"

Li Xin was taken aback, but the busy men stopped what they were doing, paid attention to Li Xin, and then shouted in unison, "Hello, Mrs. Dong!"

"...Hello, let's do something." Li Xin replied awkwardly, and looked at Guan Quan who was still smiling complainingly: "Fourth brother, what are you doing?"

"I didn't do anything wrong." Guan Quan said with a smile: "The elder brother is the boss, so isn't the elder sister the wife of the boss?"

Li Xin shook his head helplessly, and asked Guan Quan, "Is your elder brother here?"

"Not here, sister-in-law, wait a little longer, brother will be back soon." Guan Quan said.

"Where did he go?"

"Go to the pier to pick up the goods."

Huixian Wharf...

Li Xin hasn't been there for a long time.

"The goods go by water?" Li Xin sat down, looked at Guan Quan who was busy pouring her tea and catching melon seeds, and said, "Don't be so busy."

"Not busy."

Guan Quan responded, sat down beside Li Xinling, and said, "If you go by land, there are more checkpoints, and it takes more time. If you take the waterway, there are no checkpoints, and the cost is lower if you go by water." Quan smiled and said: "I have calculated these with my elder brother, anyway, we can do whatever is cheap and fast."

Li Xin nodded and smiled at Guan Quan: "It's up to you to help your elder brother give advice. By the way, your wife is still working in the Shen family, right?"

"Here." Guan Quan said: "She has started now, and she is doing very well."

After Guan Quan said something, he thought of asking Li Xin: "What's the big sister-in-law here today? Are you in a hurry?"

"No rush." ​​Li Xin smiled and said, "Some things need to be discussed with your elder brother. I can't make up my mind by myself."

Guan Quan nodded and sighed: "Hey, brother is in the town now, and sister-in-law is in the village, so it's not very convenient to come and go. If possible, why don't sister-in-law come and live in the town?"

Li Xin shook his head and said, "He's busy, so I can't help much. Besides, there are so many things going on at home in the village, and I can't leave."

Guan Quan nodded and said helplessly, "I can only survive this for a while before making any plans."

"By the way." Li Xin asked with a smile: "Didn't the magistrate give the plaque down? Where is it?"

"It's in the back yard." Guan Quan stood up and said, "Sister-in-law want to go and have a look?"

"I gonna go see."

Li Xin followed Guan Quan to the backyard, and Guan Quan opened a room and said, "Brother usually sleeps here just to make do."

The room is not big, inside there is only a bed and a wooden box, and under the wooden box is a wooden cabinet with a small window.

Guan Wen probably got up early, and the bed was a little messy because the quilt was not made.

Guan Quan walked to the other corner of the room, lifted the red cloth covering it and said, "Sister-in-law, that's the plaque given by the magistrate."

Li Xin looked at it, and found that the handwriting was pretty good. Although the county magistrate liked to collect money, his handwriting was still good.The words "Guanji Leather Goods Shop" were written on it.

"How does sister-in-law feel?" Guan Quan asked.

Nodding his head, Li Xin smiled and said, "The magistrate's handwriting is still good."

Guan Quan then covered the red cloth again, watched Li Xin tidy the bed for his eldest brother, and then went back to the front shop with Li Xin.

"Fourth brother is doing accounts?" Li Xin pointed to the abacus on Gao's counter: "I saw you fiddling with the beads of the abacus when I came here."

"I'm still studying." Guan Quan sighed with a smile, "Even if you can't read, you have to learn to read. Otherwise, even if you hire an accountant in the future, he is not someone you trust. We don't know if he is a fake."

Li Xin nodded: "It should be like this, after all, there is no end to learning."
