Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 19
Ding Wei stretched out her hand to grasp the seasonings such as star anise, cinnamon, pepper, etc., while teaching Aunt Li carefully. Aunt Li wished she had a pair of eyes and ears, and she didn't even dare to say a word, for fear of missing a knock on the door.

Since Ding Wei agreed to teach her this skill, she didn't plan to hide it any longer. Seeing her like this, she said, "Auntie, just take a look at it first. When I come next time, I will give this recipe to you." Make a copy for you."

"Really?" Aunt Li was overjoyed, and she thanked her repeatedly, "Thank you so much, Miss Ding, you are such a good person, kind-hearted and skillful, I don't know if the family will be blessed to marry you in the future!"

She said this with sincere emotion, but she forgot that Ding Wei still has a full stomach, so it became embarrassing in the end.

"Oh, I didn't mean that! Miss Ding, don't be too careful, look at my stinky mouth!"

"Don't worry, Auntie, I know you're good to me. If you have to be careful when you speak in your daily interactions, that would be awkward."

"Hey, God is blind. How could you be such a good girl..." Aunt Li sighed. Seeing Ding Wei laughing at Yan Yan, she couldn't help holding her hand, but she was really worried for her.

Ding Wei didn't realize that there was something pitiful about herself, and to be honest, she suddenly came to this strange place.No matter how much the Ding family loved her, occasionally waking up in the middle of the night would cause her to be in a trance for a moment.Just like the duckweed in the river, there is no one to rely on when the soul is fluttering.

But now, the child that is being conceived in her belly is like a thin root, although fragile, it binds her tightly to the world.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, this child is a burden and a scourge.But for her, it is the warmest blood, a companion who will accompany her in her future life, and a hope to support her to live well in this strange world...

Uncle Yun didn't find Ding Wei in the small kitchen, and when he found Ding Wei in the big kitchen, he was finally relieved when he saw that she was busy talking and joking with Aunt Li.Needless to say, I turned around and went to the warehouse to find some good things.

At dusk, when Ding Wei said goodbye, she saw the jars of candied fruit and silk in the basket, hesitated for a moment, and took them away.It's not that she is greedy for money, it's really that she is grateful for Uncle Yun's kindness and care.Of course, it would be better to bring the candied fruit to Dabao Fu'er, and Mrs. Lu also talked about making a new dress to celebrate her grandma's birthday the day before yesterday.

"If Miss Ding doesn't feel tired, come here every other day, okay? My grandson ate a whole plate of dumplings today, and I'm really happy..."

When Uncle Yun passed the basket, he added this sentence casually.

Ding Wei thought it was funny, this old man really understands the truth of being short-handed.Fortunately, she also liked the cleanliness of the Yun family, so she responded, "Okay, Uncle Yun, I'll come back later."

After speaking, she saluted again and left the Yun family.

At this moment, the sun was setting, and the red clouds were draped in the sky, reflecting the earth gorgeously and beautifully.The Ding family refurbished the wing rooms when the first lunar month came out. Now the front and the sides are covered with blue bricks and gray tiles. Against the background of the thatched huts that are almost neighbors next to them, they are actually a bit more luxurious.

Thinking that the old lady must be looking at the gate of the courtyard again, Ding Wei couldn't help speeding up her pace.

Unfortunately, seeing the door, Dabao ran back from the street crying and wiping away tears. The clothes Ding Wei changed for him in the morning were dirty, and the little jiujiu on his head was gone, so he was in a mess.

"Dabao, what's the matter with you, but did you fight with someone?"

Dabao was really wronged. When he saw his aunt standing at the door of the house, he threw himself into his aunt's arms like a cannonball and cried loudly, "Auntie, woo woo, I will never play with dogs and them again, they are bad boys !"

Ding Wei was amused to hear it, the children played together and often had quarrels, and today they hate it like cross-eyed chickens, maybe tomorrow they will be able to wear a pair of trousers.

"Da Bao is good, tell aunt, what's wrong with Goudan? Is he annoyed that you beat him in horseback riding?" Ding Wei asked softly, pulling off a handkerchief to wipe away her snot and tears.

Unexpectedly, Dabao cried even harder, his little face flushed with annoyance, "No, I gave them some snacks, and they threw them away if they didn't eat them. He even scolded my aunt, saying that the little brother in my aunt's stomach is a wild species My mother said, that's my younger brother, not a bastard!"

Ding Wei subconsciously tightened her arms around her nephew, as if her heart had been stabbed countless times by the tip of a knife, the pain was unspeakable and bitter.

"Dabao doesn't cry, Goudan and the others swear, they are not good boys. We won't play with them anymore!"

Dabao choked up and nodded, finally opened his mouth again, and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow Goudan and the others are going to catch fish by the river, and I want to go too."

Ding Wei felt sad and funny when she heard it, raised her hand to pat the dust on her nephew's clothes, straightened her hair, and persuaded her, "A few days ago, did grandpa tell Dabao that you are the eldest grandson of the Ding family, and that you will start a new year next year?" Go to a private school to study. Do you want to grow up to be the number one scholar? Do you want to ride a tall horse to Xijing?

"I think, I want to go." Dabao didn't know whether he really had the ideal of being the number one scholar in his heart, or he was attracted by Xijing's food and playthings, and nodded his head in a hurry.

Ding Wei looked amused, stretched out her hand to pinch his chubby little face, and said, "But there are many smart and sensible children, not everyone can go to Xijing. Therefore, our Dabao must pay close attention to reading and writing, not like a dog Dan and they play all day long. From now on, you can learn to read with your aunt at home, and when you go to private school next year, you can learn to read before other children, and my husband likes you more."

"Really?" Dabao's face glowed with excitement, and he replied cheerfully, "Okay, I will learn to read with my aunt."

"Hey, Dabao is such a good boy. Remember not to tell grandpa and grandma that the dog bullied you today, okay? Dabao should be filial and don't let grandpa and grandma worry." Ding Wei lifted the flower cloth covering the basket in her hand, Revealing the small porcelain jar filled with candied fruit, he said with a smile, "Dabao is such an obedient director, Auntie will reward you with a bowl of candied fruit, which is sweet and delicious."

"Ah, Dabao wants to eat, and my aunt wants to give my sister a bowl!"

"Okay, all of them." Ding Wei smiled and carried the basket in one hand, and led her nephew into the courtyard gate with the other, but the hidden worry in her eyes did not fade away.

Mrs. Lu came out of the kitchen with the food, and greeted her daughter and grandson when they came in together, "Why did you come back, go wash your hands and eat."

Ding Wei saw that the old lady smiled a little reluctantly, and even the eldest brother and sister-in-law who spent all day interviewing in the shop were at home, and her heart felt a little bit thumping again.

The whole family divided two kang tables and ate quickly.Dabao and Fu'er were carried back to the wing to sleep.Ding Wei thought about it for a long time, but still took advantage of her sewing and asked her, "Mother, is there something wrong in the shop? Why did you come back so early today?"

Lu's hands that were stroking the embroidery thread froze, but soon got busy again, and answered vaguely, "What are you thinking, the shop is fine, what can you do? Today's business is good, and the door closed a little earlier. "As she spoke, she pulled out another piece of red silk from the sewing basket and laughed, "Look how bright this material is. Make a little padded jacket for my grandson. It happens to be worn when the moon is full. It's festive!"

Ding Wei was not so easy to deceive. She turned her head and glanced at the two sister-in-laws who were obviously looking a bit gloomy, and continued to ask, "Mother, what happened? I am also a member of our family. Why did you just hide something from me? I just helped you." It’s not too busy, if you say it, at least you’ll feel better.”

Mrs. Lu was originally a straightforward person, and she was so angry that she almost exploded her lungs with today's incident. Now she couldn't help hearing her daughter say that, and gritted her teeth, "It's not that damned old Qian's family, a litter Bad-hearted weasel. Today his family went to eat steamed stuffed buns in the shop. I thought I lived in the same village and gave two extra meaty steamed stuffed buns. Unexpectedly, they even fed the dogs. Not only did they not talk about us after eating My family is half a sentence, but I pulled a few merchants to talk nonsense. I kicked them out, but they still yelled to drive our family out of the village, to... make our shop not open!"

Because Ding Laoer got the blueprint of the new style of furniture, he spent the past few days contemplating at home, and he still doesn't know what's going on in the shop.Hearing this, he immediately jumped up and cursed, "Damn Qian Dapao, the last time he was beaten really lightly. Brother, go, go and beat him up again!"

While talking, he wanted to touch the guy who was in his hand. Although Boss Ding was honest, he also felt sorry for his old lady, so he got up and went out.

No, but old man Ding put down the pipe and pot, and shouted loudly, "Come back to me!"

Ding Lao Er kicked in and out of the door, and retorted angrily, "Father, a vicious dog like the Qian family can't be afraid of it, otherwise it might not be able to bully our family in the future!"

Although Boss Ding didn't say anything, he clearly agreed with his younger brother's statement.

Old man Ding raised his brass pipe pot and knocked it hard on the table a few times, and said angrily, "Why, your wings are stiff, I can't control you anymore?"

Ding Laoer threw away the wooden stick in his hand, sat back on the chair under the window, and refused to speak any more.

Old man Ding sighed, and after a long silence, he said, "How can you block the mouths of people? You blocked the Qian family, but how about others, how can you block the mouths of the whole village and county?"

Mrs. Li couldn't see her man's anger, so she couldn't help interjecting in a low voice, "The Qian family can't be so harmful to our family, the shop lost two hundred coins by delaying this afternoon..."

Mrs. Liu also thought about it and said, "If not, Tongli is talking about it?"

Old man Ding waved his hand, "It's not easy for Lizheng to take care of this matter. If we quarrel with the Qian family and it gets serious, our family will suffer."

"Then what to do, we can't just be bullied by the Qian family like this. In the future, the villagers will follow suit, so our family..." Mrs. Li felt sorry for the money lost in the shop, and she couldn't care less about it in a hurry.Fearing that her daughter would feel uncomfortable, Mrs. Lu gave her a hard look, and successfully made her swallow the second half of the sentence.

The room fell silent for a moment, only the sound of old man Ding smoking.
