pastoral wedding

Chapter 31
"Then what about your three granddaughters?" Mrs. Liu asked with her lips curled up.

Mrs. Lu picked up the bowl and left, "No more, eat it or not."

At this time, Su Wenshan, who was hiding outside and eavesdropping, hurried over and said loudly: "Don't bother me, we bought a new iron pot, and we will go back to cook." After saying that, he went to Laliu's , Mrs. Liu dodged, and was pulled by him again, so she had to go out with him, turning her head while walking and saying loudly: "I don't know who is wicked, who dares to steal the pot from my mother's house. If my mother catches me , see if I don't smash your nose, I'll let you steal it, just chop off your fingers..."

Su Jin and Brother Shuo followed behind their father, covered their mouths and sniggered, their mothers were really good at swearing, and they didn't even say a word about their grandmother.But it's too hateful to sell their iron pot secretly. Fortunately, I found it early and spent more money to buy it back, otherwise I really wouldn't have to eat tonight and tomorrow morning.

From then on, when Su Jin's house was nobody, all the things in the house were locked in the main room, and she didn't dare to put them carelessly.

The weather has been fine and sunny for several days in a row. Before the furniture is finished, Su Jin and her two sisters go up to the mountain to pick honeysuckle and wild chrysanthemums and dry them for soaking in water. After the restaurant opens, The amount needed will be large, and only early preparations will do.

Xiao Lu saw that their sisters went up to the mountain to collect these every day, and thought they should be able to sell for money. When they met outside the door, they blocked them and asked to take Su Mei and Su Qing with them.Su Jin refused, and Xiao Lu said contemptuously: "If you don't take us with you, you won't go by yourself. There are only those wild flowers on the left and right, who knows how to pick them." After saying that, she ordered Su Mei to go home to get the basket.

"I'm sorry Second Aunt, you can pick flowers if you want, but you can't go to the back mountain." Su Jin refused bluntly.

"Why, why? Could it be that the back mountain belongs to your family? If you can go, we can't." Su Mei's words are also very quick, just follow her mother.

Su Jin looked at the two sisters with a smile, "You really guessed right this time, this back mountain really belongs to my family." After finishing speaking, she deliberately put on a smug look, she just wanted to be angry with this For the shameless mother and daughter, when they see other people’s good things, they want to covet them. They think that if they have something, they should have it. thing.

Su Tang smiled helplessly at Xiao Lu and Su Mei, reached out and tapped Su Jin's forehead lightly, "Don't be naughty, isn't it just those wild flowers, let Second Aunt and Meier pick them, It's not worth anything." Seeing Su Jin making a face at her, smiling and pinching her cheeks, she raised her head and smiled at Xiao Lu: "Auntie just go, don't listen to this girl's nonsense."

"That mountain really belongs to your family?" Xiao Lu asked again uncertainly.

"Second Aunt, my house has already been bought a few days ago, so it belongs to our family, and the land deed is still in my mother's hands, do you want to see it?" Su Shuang didn't have the heart to argue with them, so she simply pointed it out, and finished speaking I took my sister and sister and left.

Xiao Lu hasn't recovered yet, why does their family have already bought the back mountain?How much money is needed for such a large back mountain?How did Dafang have so much money?Didn't it mean that the bun shop sold dozens of taels?Thinking of these little Lu Shi, he couldn't stand anymore, so he hurriedly went into the house to look for Lu Shi.

Su Ran was still sitting under the window doing needlework, and Mrs. Lu sat next to her to handle shoe soles. Her family didn't have a daughter and daughter-in-law as capable as Su Tang, so she had to do all these jobs by herself.

The little Lu family went in and told the story, Lu family was just a little surprised when he heard the words, but Su Ran was shocked, she put down the embroidery work in her hand and asked: "Does their family have so much money? I'm afraid it will take money to buy that barren mountain." A lot of silver, right?"

Xiao Lu nodded, "That's right, I thought so too, where did they get so much money? Mother, what do you think?"

"There's nothing to be confused about. That barren mountain looks big to you, but it's actually not worth much. The money from the bun shop is enough." Lu didn't lift her head, rubbed the needle on her head, and continued to suck the sole of her shoe. .

"Even so, what are they buying that barren mountain for?" Su Ran asked another question, "Mother, Second Sister-in-law, do you think there is any treasure on that mountain?"

Mrs. Lu suddenly raised her head, narrowing her eyes slightly, "You'll know if you go and have a look."

Su Ran looked at Xiao Lu, both of them laughed.

When Su Jin was picking flowers on the mountain, she was criticized by her two elder sisters, saying that she usually looks stable and dignified, but sometimes she was confused, so why did she tell her second aunt about it, in case they sneaked up the mountain and saw something I shouldn't have seen it. How could I see something important?

Although their words were not serious, but Su Jin seemed to be completely chilled.For a long time, relying on her status as a time traveler, she has inevitably acted a little high-profile, but the more she is like this, the easier it is to be envied by others, which will bring disasters to herself and her family.I am actually a fool, I haven't figured it out for all these years, and I will never dare to do this again from now on, be low-key and humble, and be kind to others in order to be kind to yourself.

Besides, Su Ran took Su Mei up to the back mountain, but not only found nothing, but also got lost. He went up the mountain in the morning and only came back when the sunset was flying in the sky. He got nothing but exhaustion.

Seeing the beginning of May, the season when the grass grows and warblers fly, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Some teenagers in the town are already shirtless, but the girls are not in such a hurry, and the spring shirts have not been taken off for a long time.

Just when the big family of the Su family was almost ready for the Suji restaurant in the town, the Han family came to deliver the dowry, a total of eighteen loads, including various gold and silver jewellery, as well as red silk satin sleeves and yellow Luo pins. Gold dresses, satin red long dresses, crowns of pearls and emeralds, four-season flowers in buns, finely colored satin pieces, scented tea and fruits, reunion cakes, etc.

It was inconvenient for Han Chen to come, so the person who came was Han Yu. He unloaded the big red box from the carriage from the moment he entered Liushu Village, and the two of them carried it into the village.Such a generous betrothal gift attracted people from the whole village to see it, and it was very lively for a while.After finally arriving at the door of the Su family's big house, Su Wenshan and the Liu family had already been waiting there, and when the boxes were put down, they opened the boxes one by one in front of everyone in the village. In the eyes of everyone, everyone started talking about it, saying that Tang girl from the eldest family of the Su family married a good family, she won the respect of her husband's family before she got married, and when she became married, life would be very easy.

The backside is so lively, but the Su family's old house in front is very quiet. The little Lu family has already taken her two daughters to watch the excitement, and only the Lu family and Su Ran are left sitting side by side to do work.

Su Ran couldn't help it at first, but she calmed down after being severely taught by her mother.Mrs. Lu was also uncomfortable. These honors should have belonged to her, but now they have been moved to the backyard, as if they have nothing to do with her.She was not happy, but she wanted face even more, no matter what, she would wait until everyone left.

That little Lu family was still uninterested, and as soon as the gift giver left, she ran back with a handful of candies in her hand, eating with relish, "Mother, you don't know, then Han The dowry gifts from the family were eighteen loads, including gold and silver jewellery, jewelry necklaces, and silk and satin cloths. You don’t know that my eldest brother and sister-in-law are smiling, but they can’t see their teeth.”

"Second sister-in-law, what are you chattering about here? Since you're back, don't hurry to cook, what time is it?" Su Ran put down the embroidery work in her hand and got into trouble, her face full of displeasure and jealousy.

Lu Shi also stared at her, "I didn't hear what Ran girl said. If you don't cook, you are like a gossip all day long. You haven't done your own work yet, and you don't care what others do."

"Then there's no one else," Xiao Lu expressed dissatisfaction with the authoritarian behavior of the mother and daughter, "Isn't that the eldest brother and sister-in-law? They are your own son and daughter-in-law. Why are you so shameless?"

As soon as she said this, Lu Shi and Su Ran Qiqi raised their heads to look at her, their eyes couldn't believe it, is this what she said?Truth?I'm afraid I'll post it if I see someone is getting better, I'll start to speak for others now. "If you are curious, you can post it, and don't say it in front of me."

Xiao Lu smiled, "Mother, look at what you said, I am standing with you and girl Ran no matter what, just think about it, no matter how much elder brother and sister-in-law make you angry, it is our family, they Well, can't we also follow suit?"

That's not bad, Su Ran's mind was quickened first, and she looked at her mother eagerly, since she can't marry into the Han family, she can earn a little, she has to think about her future dowry.

It's impossible to say that you can't think about it. Before Xiao Lu said, Lu had already thought about his speech, so he looked in the direction of the front yard with a cold snort, "I don't want to spit out anything unless I die."

The big house of the Su family had the busiest day since returning to Liushu Village. The Liu family happily stood in the house looking at the things in the cage, thinking about the scene during the day. All the people are trying to flatter and curry favor with them, flattery is a nice thing to hear.

"Mom, what are you doing standing here by yourself?" Su Jin brought in noodles, her specialty pork shredded noodles, a big bowl full, "Come and eat quickly, you haven't eaten much today."

Mrs. Liu took the bowl with a smile and sat down at the table, pulled Su Jin to sit down as well, and said with a smile: "Third girl, you know your mother's wish, and I hope you can have a good marriage. After leaving the Han family, I put my heart back into my stomach a little bit. After all, there is one less thing on my mind. Alas, I hope that both of you sisters can be as competitive as your elder sister. Didn't you see that this neighbor and fellow No matter how everyone looks at us, they are envious and jealous."

"Mom," Su Jin pursed her lips and looked at her with a smile, "I know you're happy, but you haven't thought about my eldest sister's future life? Then Mrs. Han is not easy to provoke, and there are so many aunts in the mansion, Can you guarantee that Brother Chen will never marry a concubine in his life? My eldest sister is kind and gentle. If you don’t know how to earn and grab, even if you suffer a loss, you may not tell us. I think you should be good I told my eldest sister, don't suffer from a loss and still be bored."

It's okay if she didn't say anything, but when she said it, Liu Shi stood up all of a sudden, "I forgot about this, I have to go to Han Chen and ask him to promise me that I will never take a concubine in my life." If she wants to leave, in her eyes, the children's affairs are very important.

Su Jin hurriedly stopped her, "Mom, it's getting dark today, how are you going, if you want to talk about this, you can't talk about it," she said with a smile, "Don't forget that you are his mother-in-law now, if you want to talk Ah, you have to get someone to call him here, you just sit here upright and let him talk to you, so as to suppress his arrogance and prevent him from underestimating us."

Wen Yan Liu nodded after thinking about it, and patted her small head with a smile, "You are still clever, if you didn't remind mother that you can't remember, then let's talk about it tomorrow."

Seeing that she was finally willing to sit down and eat noodles, Su Jin shook her head with a smile, "Mother, eat, I'll go and see Eldest Sister."
