farmer's husband

Chapter 239

The enthusiasm of this family is simply beyond her imagination, and now she doesn't know what to do!

Chun Zhi hurriedly looked at Chai Dong for help.

Chai Dong was much calmer.

He watched these children finish kowtowing, and then he said helplessly in a low voice: "Brother Wei, you really want to beat me. In fact, I am about the same age as them."

"How can it be similar? You are five years older than my eldest son! Five years old is a generation! From now on, they will all be your juniors. During the holidays, they will go to greet you. As an elder, No matter what, you can find them and let them do it. This is what they should do!" Wei Zhong said loudly again hastily.

His daughter-in-law nodded.

The children also raised their eyes and looked at them eagerly, with sincerity in their eyes.

This family is very honest!
Chai Dong nodded slightly. "Okay, I understand. From now on, I will treat them as juniors, and support them if I can."

"No, no, there is no need for support. In fact, we are fine now. We never dreamed that we would have today!" Wei Zhong shook his head honestly, "And, just this spring, my eldest son Already engaged to the prefect’s daughter-in-law, and there will be a banquet in October! Since you’re here, Brother Chai, stay here for a few more days, and you must drink this cup of wedding wine before leaving!”

"Really? For such a happy event, of course I want to ask for a glass of wedding wine." Chai Dong immediately nodded in agreement.

Wei Zhong suddenly danced happily again. "Soon my son will be the master's son-in-law, and his future will not be short in the future. With the help of his elder brother, his siblings' future will not be bad. So you don't need to worry about these, Brother Chai. I will let you They recognize you as an elder, they just want them to have the opportunity to honor you and repay you in the future!"

This man is too honest.

Chun Zhi really wanted to shake his head and sigh, how could there be such an honest person in the world?

Chai Dong was also shocked by Wei Zhong's words.

He froze for a while, then shook his head again. "Brother Wei, you really...let me say something?"

He touched his body, and quickly looked at Chun Zhi: "I went out in a hurry today, and I didn't bring anything. Do you have anything on your body that can be used as a gift for your nephews and nieces?"

"Yes!" Chunzhi nodded quickly, and took out a stack of cloth heads, large and small, from his arms.

She originally brought these to the provincial capital, and planned to embroider them when she had time, so that Li Xiaozi could play with them.Now the prices of her embroidered pieces have been fixed, and she has 15 taels of silver for almost one piece.This money is enough to nourish their family for two months.Chai Dong was rewarded by the academy every month, and ten taels of silver would allow him to live comfortably in the academy.Therefore, Chai Dong didn't let her do too much.

"Embroidery hurts your eyes, so since we don't need the money, don't do it desperately. Otherwise, your eyes will be damaged, and you can't get it back no matter how much money you earn now!"

When Chai Dong told her this, Wang Shi agreed.

Since Chaidong was a child, Wang has been doing embroidery every day to earn money to support him.After so many years, her eyesight is indeed not very good, and she has to squint to look at places a little farther away, saying that she can't see clearly.Moreover, she can't do too much embroidery now, and her eyes feel uncomfortable after staring at the frame for a while.

Therefore, Mrs. Wang said: "Since my son said that he is not short of money, then don't work so hard, or it will be like our family bullying you! You should keep my eyes well, Well, take good care of my son and grandson for the rest of my life, that's the most serious thing!"

Now that they said so, Harue felt happy and at ease.

Therefore, she also agreed with Chu Xu that one embroidery piece would be delivered every two months, and Chu Xu agreed.And two months to embroider a larger ornament, this is a lot of time for Chun Zhi.She is used to being busy again, and now she is not used to doing nothing in peace, so she just got some rags and headbands on her body, and embroidered a pattern or two when she felt like it.Then put these cloth heads together according to the patterns and colors.

Up to now, she already has a lot of embroidery on hand!
Chun Zhi hurriedly borrowed needles and threads from Wei Zhong's wife, and she quickly stitched the cloth together, and in three or two strokes, she spliced ​​out four or five small things of various shapes.There are small hydrangeas and cloth lanterns, all of which are not big, but delicate and beautiful.Give each of the children one, and they love it so much when they hold it in their hands, they are reluctant to let go of it no matter how much they hold it.

Wei Zhong and his wife saw it, and their eyes sparkled.

"Unexpectedly, after two years of separation, your skills have improved again!" Wei Zhong gave Chun Zhi a thumbs up, "I remember that you could only embroider handkerchiefs, but now you can do these things, and you can also It's done perfectly!"

Wei Zhong's wife also nodded. "Brother and sister, your hands are really skillful. You can make these little things with just your fingers, and the embroidery on them is so good. This thing should sell for a lot of money, right?"

"It's not for sale. I originally made it for the children at home to play with." Chun Zhi smiled and shook his head.

Li Xiaozi is very naughty now.There are so many cats in the house that are not enough for him to toss about. The cloth tigers that Mrs. Wang sewed for him can be dismantled in less than half a month.As a result, she and Wang had to make toys for him when they had time, so of course the toys couldn't be exactly the same, so she could only think of ways to change them.

In addition, didn't her natal brother Chunlei also have a little girl now?She likes that child and is willing to make toys for her.The little girl also likes the things she makes, and holds them in her hands every time, and adults can't snatch them away.This aroused her interest in making gadgets for children even more.

Wei Zhong's daughter-in-law couldn't help but smack her lips. "Such good embroidery, such exquisite workmanship, but they don't sell for money? Brothers and sisters, you must know that I went shopping in the street a few days ago, and saw a random little thing like this on a roadside stall. It was not as good as yours. That’s good, it’s all ten cents!”

"Really? Now I give them to my nephews and nieces as meeting gifts, so it shouldn't be a shame." Chun Zhi nodded.

Wei Zhong's wife suddenly choked.

She didn't mean that at all, okay?

But Wei Zhong didn't understand what she meant.He only knew that Chunzhi's things were well made, and it was good to give his children a meeting gift, so he thanked Chunzhi again, and then started talking with Chaidong again.

When the two men got together, one had been in the officialdom for a while, and the other had opened up a new world in the academy, and now they have endless things to say.Neither Chun Zhi nor Wei Zhong's wife could get in their mouths.

Even at the dinner table, these two people were still chattering, and they didn't even bother to eat.Chun Zhi and Wei Zhong's daughter-in-law could only keep picking up food for them, urging them to eat quickly.

They stayed here until the sun was about to set before taking their leave.Even so, Chai Dong and Wei Zhong still had a lot to say.

"Hey, I originally planned to keep you at my house for the night, so that I could have another talk with Brother Chai. It's just that the candles are too expensive, and my family can't afford them; my house is small, so you can only squeeze in if you stay. It would be better to go back to live in the room over there to be more comfortable. Anyway, the distance between the two sides is not far, we want to meet in the future, just come and see us anytime.” Sending them to the door, Wei Zhong said earnestly to Chai Dong.

Chai Dong nodded. "good."

They also declined Wei Zhong's offer to ask the old servant to send them back again.Their family didn't have a lot of money, so they could only support such two old servants.One of them was sent to send Chun Zhi and the others, Wei Zhong had only one old woman left in his family, and she couldn't be more busy.

Seeing him sternly rejecting, Wei Zhong didn't make any more demands.

However, he still stood at the door, watching Chun Zhi and his wife disappear at the intersection ahead, and after a long, long time, he reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

"Look, Brother Chai and my wife, as I told you, are both good people!" Turning around again, he proudly declared to his daughter-in-law beside him.

His wife nodded. "They are really good, and they seem to be more promising than us."

"Of course!" Wei Zhong nodded hastily, "My brother Chai is smart and capable, and he will definitely have great achievements in the future!"

"However!" He immediately changed his face again, "That's his own ability, it has nothing to do with us. Go back and make it clear to the children that they have helped us so much, and we can't push further. From now on, no matter what happens to their family Flying to the top, we can't go to them to ask for benefits because of the relative relationship we recognize now. To be a human being is to be content!"

"I know. Don't worry, I will definitely tell the children and let them remember it firmly." His wife nodded quickly.

Wei Zhongcai nodded again, lowered his eyes and muttered softly. "Actually, it's not that I don't expect better things for my children. It's just that people's good luck is counted. We know what our family's background is. I didn't expect us to live the life we ​​are now. Thanks to Brother Chai, Now we don’t have to worry about food and clothing. Our son can marry a daughter from a good family, and my daughter can also marry a rich family. I don’t have to suffer like us. This is already a change of fate! This has given our original blessings to It's almost exhausted! We just need to keep this blessing to live in peace and contentment, and our children will be safe and secure for a lifetime. If we force more, it will be a loss of life! But Brother Chai is different from us, he His luck is much higher than ours, he will definitely be able to stand out, but we can't enjoy this luck, we can't afford it..."
