The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 213
When he was tearing the cloth in the cloth village, Lu Gu remembered that the man just now bought meat several times at the shop because his face was familiar, but he didn’t know what it was called.
“I see this line.” Ji Qiuyue said while touching the fabric.
What he thought in his mind was not very different from the passing clouds. After all, he was a stranger. After he figured it out, he would no longer be troubled. Hearing that, he reached out and touched the fabric, nodded and said, “That’s right.”
When asked, the price is a bit expensive, but it is made for children. As long as the material is good, it is nothing.
Seeing what Ji Qiuyue was going to say to Shen Yan, before he spoke, he said directly, “Sister-in-law, no, I’ll dig it out, talk more, and make clothes for my mother.”
“What’s the matter, I’ll do it.” Ji Qiuyue disagreed.
He persuaded again: “Er Qing can go back every month to have a look. I only go back every one or two months. My mother is busy at home. I can’t help anything else. I will pay for the money.”
He said it firmly, without any temptation or irony. Ji Qiuyue doesn’t have many disputes when he is out of the house, so as not to be seen as a joke, not to mention the family, this time Lu Gu bought it, and the next time it will be different. Yes, just replace her.
After pulling the cloth, Lu Gu didn’t feel bad at all, even though he spent six cents on the piece of silver.
The cloth bag, Shen Yan, was slung on his arm. The three of them happily walked to the shop while strolling. Seeing that there were some cheap silk flowers on the side of the road, Shen Yan was delighted to see them and bought a few flowers.
As for the scholar they met just now, none of them paid much attention to it.
Gu Chengyue, who went to the embroidery workshop to buy handkerchiefs for his family, stood at the door for a while, but when the shopkeeper Zhou saw him, he smiled and asked him whether he was here to buy things or be a doorman, and he was relieved.
After entering the door, he saw the shopkeeper Zhou sorting out a stack of handkerchiefs. He moved in his heart and asked, “The shopkeeper, is this embroidered by your embroidered mother?”
“Where, the ones who just went out and sent it to sell, what are you buying?” Shopkeeper Zhou asked with a smile.
“My mother asked me to buy some handkerchiefs. My sister’s handkerchiefs are old. I happened to be going to buy a book.” Gu Chengyue replied.
His eyes fell on the handkerchiefs, recalling that both the woman and the husband were holding their children, but the girl in the back had a happy smile on her face. After thinking about it, it must be because of the money. Then he thought again, that girl dressed up as a girl. , should not have left the cabinet.
“So, look at these, the craftsmanship is good.” The shopkeeper Zhou did not explicitly say that it was sent by Shen Yan. When they saw it, they were not married. The embroidered handkerchiefs were sold outside, and some of them would go to the hands of men. Naturally Not loud.
Gu Chengyue knew this truth and didn’t ask any more. Even if it wasn’t embroidered by the girl just now, the family would always use it.
In the past, he didn’t pay much attention to handkerchiefs, but after looking at them for a while today, the embroidery patterns are still very good.
Gu’s family lives in Lanzhi Lane on Dongxing Street. He is a native of Jixing Town. He has 20 acres of fertile fields outside the town. There is also a candle shop at home. Paper money for incense candles, whether it is for weddings or festivals, is often bought. Therefore, even if his family could not be called a wealthy outsider, it was considered a little money.
After buying all the handkerchiefs and books, Gu Chengyue returned home. He sat at the desk in front of the window and read a book, but he couldn’t read it. His mind always slipped into things that had nothing to do with books.
He suddenly remembered that the husband holding the child was the husband who sold rabbit meat in the town.
Since the sale of rabbit meat, the family sometimes wanted to eat something different from chicken, duck and fish. He went to buy it a few times and met Lu Gu.
It was that house.
“Chengyue.” His mother in the courtyard shouted as she walked into the room.
“Mother.” Gu Chengyue got up from the desk.
“Come, come and sit.” Aunt Gu sat down at the tea table and said with a happy face: “When you got up early and went to the academy for a while, the matchmaker Sun came over and said that having a family is a good marriage…”
Gu Chengyue’s face showed a bit of bitterness and helplessness when he mentioned this, and interrupted, “Mother, I…”
“Mother, what mother, let me tell you little brat, this time you have to go, or you have to go if you don’t go!” Aunt Gu got angry, and her voice became much higher.
Gu Chengyue was reprimanded and did not dare to talk back to the old lady. He was reluctant to go to see each other before because he had been dating each other for two years. , concentrate only on reading.
Aunt Gu knew what was on his mind, and sighed, feeling that the marriage was so unhappy, let alone her son, even she felt aggrieved, so she persuaded her with good words: “You are sixteen now, and you are too old to say that you are old. , the marriage should always be settled, no one can tell the fate, but if you don’t go, where will you meet.”
“Matchmaker Sun told me that the girl’s appearance and conduct are first-class, even though she is from the country and is two years younger than you, but her brother opened a shop in our town, and I sent you there last time. The one that bought the rabbit, remember?”
“To say that the girl’s two brothers are not in our town very often. I have seen them several times. The tallest one seems to be her second brother. He looks really handsome. If you think about it, his sister is not too far behind…”
Aunt Gu was chattering about a big conversation. After Gu Chengyue heard the butcher’s shop, he couldn’t hear the words after that. His head buzzed and he couldn’t believe it.
The word fate gradually emerged in his mind.
He was stunned and looked like a nerd, so angry that Aunt Gu slapped him on the left forearm and cursed, “I’m talking to you, do you listen?”
She originally wanted to pat her head, but her son had been good at studying since he was a child, and he was reluctant to hit his head, so he would have been in a daze.
Gu Chengyue suppressed the throbbing in his heart, tried his best to keep his voice steady and asked, “Mother, when are you going?”
When Aunt Gu heard this, she immediately smiled and said, “What’s the hurry, I haven’t told you yet, I’ll go back to matchmaker Sun and ask her to tell her, in fact, she’s not here for matchmaking, but just to buy paper money, She listened to the old lady from the Yang family tavern. She said that there is a girl in their family, so the matchmaker Sun asked a few more questions. She didn’t come here today and said a few words to me. You are not studying. , this is called inadvertently inserting willows, isn’t it?”
The last time I told Gu Chengyue about my kiss, he was reluctant to go to see people, but this time I finally thought about it. Aunt Gu was so happy that she even talked more, and she slapped her thigh after saying, “Look at me, talk to you about this and do it. What, it’s more important to find Sun matchmaker first.”
The Gu family will not mention it for the time being. Aunt Gu asked Sun matchmaker to inquire about it.
Shen Yaoqing took his daughter-in-law and sister home a few days ago, and there were only Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu in the town.
Lingge’er no longer has stomach upsets or crying pains. The food has been delicious for the past two days. After sweeping the yard in the morning, Lu Gu had nothing to do, so he took the child to the shop and walked around.
As soon as he came in, he found that Mr. Yan was sitting and eating tea. He smiled and said, “Miss, you are free today? Why didn’t the master come?”
“My dear.” When Yan saw Brother Xiaoling, he took it and hugged him in his arms. The pain was like eyeballs. The second boy of their family was handsome, and the husband was also good-looking. Even the baby born was so beautiful. Lovely.
After coaxing Lingjun to tease for a while, she then said: “The restaurant is not busy today, your master and Lao Wangtou went to his house to unload the soft persimmons, the ones that are ripe on the tree are sweet, you two remember the past when you look back. take.”
“Understood.” Shen Xuanqing agreed, he poured a cup of tea for Lu Gu, and said with a smile, “My wife came here today to talk about Yanyan’s marriage, there is a suitable home in the town, sixteen years old, older than Yanyan He is two years old, has farms and shops, is not a wealthy person, similar to us, but he is from Jixing Town.”
Just now, Mrs Yan was only concerned with holding the child, and when he heard him talk about it, he hurriedly said to Lu Gu: “The shop is on Dongxing Street, it’s the one that sells incense, candles, paper money, the child is studying, and he passed his childhood two years ago. This year, I was admitted as a scholar again, and I have a lot of promise, I have seen people, and he looks like Zhou Zheng, he is not as tall as a second kid, but he is not short among other men.”
“How about his family?” Lu Gu asked subconsciously.
Yan shi smiled and said, “The aunt Gu is diligent, but her voice is louder. They don’t have an incense candle shop. I have bought them a few times, and they are clean. Her eldest son is Gu Chengyue, and she just wants to be with us. Yan Yanxiang sees that there is an eldest sister above, who is married in town, and often goes back to her mother’s house when she is close, and there are two younger brothers and sisters below, both of whom are young and have not yet reached the time of getting married.”
“Gu’s family should be okay, the incense candle shop has been open for many years, and it is not poor to dress up. I have come here in the past few years, and I have heard about several streets. It is good to take care of the incense candle and avoid arguing with others. Even his Eldest sister, married an honest and responsible teahouse shopkeeper, and I have never heard of any quarrels with others, let alone arguing.”
After listening to Shen Xuanqing, he said, “I’ll go back and have a walk around. If it’s feasible, I’ll go home and tell my mother, and let her come and take a look.”
“It’s natural.” When Yan heard that Wei Lanxiang was coming, he suddenly smiled and said, “When the time comes, let me stay here for two more days, or you can talk to me. I can’t go back to the village at the end of the year. Second, many people haven’t seen it, let her tell me.”
“It’s done.” Shen Xuanqing didn’t hesitate. Mrs. Yan was not an outsider after all, so he naturally paid attention to it. The marriage he was looking for sounded pretty good. As long as the family didn’t fight and quarrel often, he could consider it.
The autumn wind blew off the remaining dead leaves from the persimmon trees in the yard, and not a single leaf was left, becoming bare branches.
There were too many persimmons and they couldn’t finish them all. Lu Gu wanted to take the children by himself, so he only dried some dried persimmons and didn’t make persimmon cakes. The tree was luxuriant, and he kept some hard persimmons for storage and slowly eating them in winter. .
The weather is not very good these few days, so we have to delay the marriage, and we can’t see each other on windy and rainy days, which is not auspicious.
Shen Xuanqing was in the shop, it was windy and cold outside, Lu Gu didn’t take the child out, and Brother Ling was also clever. If he had to go out in the morning, he carried him out, but his face was cold, and after Brother Ling was brought back No more making a fuss about going out to play.
The child is one year old and is learning to walk recently. He can walk a few steps while leaning against the wall or holding onto the wooden railing at the head of the bed.
“Come, come to Em’s place, I’ll give you steamed buns.” Lu Gu put the child on the bed, and stood beside the bed to lure him with hot steamed buns.
“Wang!” The good boy was also in the room, and he stepped back a few steps and called out to the child on the bed, as if to let him in.
Ling Geer was sitting on the bed and was reluctant to move, but when he saw the buns, he grabbed the wooden railing and stood up. The child was so strong that he could pull himself up. The bar moved forward slowly, walking fairly steadily.
The bed is covered with thick mattresses, so that the child is not afraid of falling and hurting.
When Brother Ling came over step by step, he threw himself into Lu Gu’s arms to grab the steamed buns. He picked up his son and kissed his fair face, his eyes full of joy: “It’s amazing!”
The child is getting older and can understand compliments. Lingge’er laughed. The little white teeth have not grown together yet, not to mention the other little teeth, the two little front teeth are like little rabbits.
Only the two of them were at home, and Lu Gu couldn’t hold back, and with Shen Xuanqing on his back, he gently pinched his son’s cheeks.
