im until the end of his life. 。As long as I live, the Golden Beach will exist for a day, and my uncles will never worry about food and clothing, living comfortably and happily!The old soldiers listene..."My lady, have a look at this jade bracelet. Its water clarity is superb, truly a rare treasure. Unfortunately, there's a slight cotton inclusion inside, so the price is very reasonable, only fifty taels."
"And here's this pair of gold silk bangles. Each one takes two ounces of gold to craft, but the artisan's skill isn't quite there, so the price is reasonable, just fifty taels!"
Jia Yin picked this up and looked at it, touched that and felt it, her eyes shining with delight.
Finally, she bought both the gold bangles and jade bangles, and added a golden hairpin.
The shopkeeper quickly tallied the accounts and added a small charm of a money-attracting child as a bonus.
This ruined the beautiful music, clutching the little thing so tightly, she liked it even more than a bracelet.
Free is always the best!
After leaving the jewelry store, the two continued to stroll around, buying some snacks. Jiayin found it boring and started to act up, “Uncle, let’s go home. I miss grandma!”
The Marquis rubbed the little girl's hair, smiling helplessly, "Alright, let's go. I'll take you home to show off your gold bracelet!"
Having said that, he scooped up the little girl and instructed the housekeeper who arrived shortly after, then drove back to Suijin Tan.
Old Li was thinking about her home the whole way. When she got home, she saw that Huiniang and the two children were sleeping soundly. She then walked around the front and back yards, and went to see her son and daughter-in-law in the valley. Only then did she feel at ease.
As the sun began to set in the west, she was just about to start cooking when her granddaughter came back.
Lady Li was very surprised, “Funiu, didn't you say you were going to stay at the Hou Mansion for two days”
The Lord then walked in and jokingly said, "Little girl bought something good, rushing back to show off!"
Li Laotai held her granddaughter and lightly patted her, scolding softly, "You're really a naughty child, making your godfather run around."
Jia Yin giggled and wriggled in her grandma's arms, acting cute. "Funiuer misses Grandma, Mama, and Papa, and Big Brother, and Second Uncle..."
"Alright, alright, I know you miss home. Keep talking like that and you'll scare all the mice out of the hole!"
The old woman greeted the lord with a smile, inviting him into the house.
At this time, Li Lao Er, Li Lao Si, and Tao Hongying all came back. Seeing the lord, they stepped forward to speak.
Jia music took out the box and handed one gold bracelet to her mother, saying, "Mom, this is for you. The other one is for Third Aunt."
Tao Hongying was overjoyed, but she thought her daughter had cheated another piece of jewelry from the Marquis again, so she hurriedly wanted to take it off.
The Lord had guessed it and chuckled, saying: “This was picked out by Funiu specifically at the jewelry store. She wouldn’t let me pay, spending her own silver.”
"Really" Tao Hongying hugged her daughter and laughed, "Our little Cai even has times when she pays out of pocket! That's really something!"
Jia Yin struggled on the ground, puffing up her chubby cheeks with anger, “Mama looks down on Fu Niu’er, I won’t buy it next time!”
Tao Hongying laughed heartily, poking her daughter's little face. "Mother is so happy! Other girls are still being troublesome, but our little Funiu already knows how to be filial. Just imagine telling others, their eyes would probably turn red with envy!"
Funiu'er blushed with pride at the praise, puffing out her chest. "Of course! Funiu'er will buy Mama even better things in the future!"
"Alright, that's enough for now. Mother still has work to do and this would be too cumbersome." Tao Hongying was afraid her daughter would spend more money recklessly so she quickly stopped her.
But, in reality, who doesn't like jewelry She said that, but she couldn't help but hold up her wrist and admire the beautiful piece again and again.
Jia Yin approached her grandmother's side and inserted the last remaining golden hairpin from the box into her grandmother's hair. She then placed the final jade bracelet on her grandmother's wrist and instructed, "Grandma, when you see your second sister-in-law again, just take off this bracelet and put it on her hand!"
Mrs. Li was surprised and asked her granddaughter, "Shouldn't the bracelets be put in the dowry and come in pairs Besides, even if it's a courtesy gift for Miss Peng, you shouldn't give just one."
"Huh" This time, it was Jia Yin's turn to be surprised.
Didn't ancient costume dramas always show it this way
An old woman grabbed the hand of a girl she liked, smiled and showered her with compliments. Then, she put her bracelet on the girl's wrist, signifying that she had chosen her as her daughter-in-law...
Shouldn't this be the rule here
Everyone couldn't help but laugh at her open-mouthed expression.
"Where did this child hear about these rules"
“Yes, she is just a young girl. She has a lot to worry about.”
The Lord also laughed, "She just woke up from her midday nap and started clamoring to buy bracelets. Perhaps she dreamed of the ritual!"
Jia Yin blushed and pouted, "No way, no way, Grandma wears it, and then I'll give it to Second Sister-in-law!"
"Good, good!" The old lady quickly hugged her granddaughter and coaxed her, "It's rare that our little Cai spent money to buy this. Grandma will definitely tell your second brother and sister-in-law that this is from you."
Jiayin hugged her grandmother's neck, a little deflated, almost causing a misunderstanding.
Now that there's grandma at home, she'll have to learn these rules well in the future so as not to cause another laughing matter.
In the neighboring courtyard, Grandma He, who was drying furs with Dongmei, had no idea that because of this very thing, she would have to go on duty early.
Although the sun is still pleasant during the day, there's a slight chill in the air in the mornings and evenings now.
Bring out the winter coats and furs, air them out, beat them to fluffiness, and get them ready for action.
The riverbank at Suijin Beach was planted with emerald cucumbers and golden gourds, while the other half was devoted to sweet potatoes, peanuts, and various kinds of beans.
The villagers worked together, and it was finished in a day or two, so there was no rush.
Now all eyes in the village are on the mountain, or more precisely, the orchard.
Last year, the fruit trees were newly planted, with few blooms and even fewer fruits. The taste was not good either.
But this spring, when the flowers bloomed throughout the garden, every time the spring breeze blew past, the mountains and valleys would be showered with petals, I wonder how many guests it has enchanted.
Now that the flowers have fallen and the fruit has ripened, after being nourished by the summer rain and bathed in sunlight, each one resembles a small clay bowl, glowing red on the branches. They look so tempting!
The little animals on the mountain, the birds, and even the children from the nearby villages were all watching with hawk eyes, eager to pounce.
So, the villagers of all ages, whenever they were free, would walk around the orchard and keep watch.
It wasn't that the villagers were stingy, after all, they ate with open stomachs. Three or five per person would be enough to fill everyone up.
I'm afraid of both eating and causing trouble at the same time!
Never underestimate the ugliness of human nature.
This was the most profound lesson learned by everyone as they fled to the south.
The village head, an old man, had just moved back home from the melon field and hadn't been there long before he moved again to the shed in the orchard.
Last time Fu Niuer had her birthday, the head of the Liu family came over and made it very clear.
Even if these fruits are only average in taste, they can still sell for a good price just by their appearance.
Even the fruits brought back from the south aren't this big and red.
Then, he will personally come and take it away, definitely making a big profit for the village again.
With such a promise, the village had nothing more to worry about.
To safeguard these fruits of victory is to safeguard a fortune in white silver!
Early the next day, Li Laosi went up the mountain for a walk and saw nothing unusual. He thought he would go back to the dock.
He entered the house and took out a fruit from his sleeve. He wiped it clean and gave it to his daughter, "Funiu, try this, is it sweet Don't let your village chief find out, I'm afraid he'll chase me with his pipe bowl and hit me on the head!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, "The village head treats the mountain fruits like his eyes!"
Jia music tiptoed over with the fruit, first letting grandma and mama each take a bite before she started eating.
The entrance tastes four parts sour and six parts sweet. Although it's not as good as the fruit in space, it would still beat all varieties in this world.
Maybe it would even sell for more than jade gourds, because there are thousands of trees all over the mountains! How many fruits could they possibly pick
Li Laosi was just about to say he would go back to the dock when Dongmei came in from outside and reported, "Old Madam, Lord Zhou is here with a lot of people. He has already arrived at the village entrance…"
