Chapter 53: Etiquette is light but affection is important
After everyone finished eating, Ma Dongmei, as the eldest sister, took the initiative to clear the table, and the younger ones also helped.
After finishing the work, I looked at the clothes soaking in the basin, so I picked up the basin and went to the well. After getting a bucket of water, I started washing. Musk wanted to wash it himself, but gave up when he thought that he really couldn't wash it. .
They were all members of the family and there was no need to be so polite. The two boys put the buckets down the well and pulled up the hemp ropes to draw water. Ma Chunhua squatted and watched her sister wash clothes.
Thinking that he couldn't let his elder sister work in vain, Gou Wa went back to his room to open the package he got yesterday and took out the gift box. He found the silver gilt butterfly hairpin and the pair of silver earrings inlaid with green emeralds.
As for the silver longevity and wealth lock, I just took it and gave it away today. It seems useless to keep it. How can I say that: etiquette is light but affection is heavy.
He took out all the things from the brocade box, took them and walked out. He saw the eldest sister and Chunhua twisting and drying his coat. Passing by the main room, I saw two boys still playing with Wangcai.
So he walked to grandpa's room and knocked on the door.
Grandpa opened the door and saw the dog boy, so he asked, "Is something wrong?"
"Yes." Gouwa turned sideways and entered the door, then scanned around the house. The design style of this house was the same as the one he lived in. It was just that there was an extra table and two large wooden barrels beside the bed, and there were two more wooden barrels on top. Pockets, you can see the mixed noodles wrapped with crabs at noon. Those two big wooden barrels were probably also used to hold things like rice and noodles.
"What's so mysterious?" Grandpa was also quite surprised.
"Let me show you these." Gouwa spread his hands.
"This. This." Grandpa took the things and looked at them carefully. The little old man also had some experience in the world, so he knew that the price of these things was not high, but they were rare. Especially this gilt butterfly hairpin, even though it is made of silver, its value is not much different than that of gold.
"What do you want me to do?" Grandpa asked directly without guessing. After all, his grandson had his own ideas.
"Give these hairpins and earrings to Sister Dongmei. She will get hairpins soon. When she goes out, she will have a decent set of jewelry. It will be easier for her husband's family to get along with her. Let Chunhua wear this lock. It's not easy for a girl in this world. I hope you will bless her. She is safe." Gou Wa didn't know what to say, after all, she was his cousin.
Anyway, I was thinking that keeping things would be of no use, so I might as well give them away without having to keep them myself.
The class representative said: "Ji hairpin" is also called "Ji hairpin" in Chinese words. It means that when a woman reaches the age of 15, her hair is tied and tied with a hairpin, so it is called a hairpin when a woman reaches the age of 15. It also refers to the age of marriage, such as: the age of haircut, the age of haircut.
"Okay, I'll give these things to them later." Grandpa agreed readily. Anyway, the things belong to his grandson. He can do with them how he wants. He just needs to grasp the general direction.
"Da Ya, Chun Hua. Come to grandpa." When the little old man saw the dog boy walking out, he shouted to his two granddaughters outside the door.
"Hey, here we come." After a while, Ma Dongmei led her sister into the house.
"Chunhua, come here and put this on." Grandpa called his little granddaughter first when everyone came in, and handed Chunhua the longevity and wealth lock tied with a red string.
Chunhua took it curiously. The lock was made of gray and white silver, with words and inscriptions. The small ornaments on it could make a tinkling sound. Children liked this very much. He hung it with a smile, picked it up from his chest and turned it over to look at it, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
"Thank you, grandpa." Chun Hua thanked her crisply.
"Well, let's go play!" The little old man waved the child out. Chunhua jumped up and down happily and went out to show off her new accessories to her friends.
"Da Ya, you are celebrating the New Year this year and are about to get your haircut. Grandma left early, and it is not convenient for me as a grandpa to talk about some things. You can take these ornaments and keep them yourself or ask your mother to keep them for you. Female Children will always need some decorative jewelry when they go out." After saying that, he took out the silver gilt butterfly hairpin and the pair of green emerald silver earrings and placed them on the table.
Da Ya stared blankly at the jewelry on the table, unable to believe that it was for her.
She had never seen such beautiful jewelry. Although she had been to the county several times with her parents, the ladies from wealthy families did not have such beautiful jewelry on their heads, especially the silver gilt butterfly hair on the table. The butterfly on the hairpin looks like it wants to spread its wings and fly, and the green stone on the pair of silver earrings is so beautiful that I don’t know how to say it.
"Don't be stupid and put it away first. Gouwa brought this from far away and asked me to hand it over to you." The little old man didn't know how to talk to the child and he didn't have time to pay much attention to it. These little things.
"Yeah." Da Ya nodded dully.
When the little old man saw Da Ya wrapping the ornaments in a handkerchief as if they were treasures, he waved her to go out.
If the old woman were still alive, she would at least be a check on each other's marriage. For this eldest granddaughter, the little old man, as a grandfather, was very helpless.
Some people have nothing to worry about in their lives, and they will be happy for a lifetime if they marry the right person. And some people are naturally kind, and despite all the hardships in the world, she has not been able to overcome them. Maybe this is what is called fate. I hope this child will have better luck!
When Da Ya exited the door of her grandfather's room, she saw her two other brothers, each holding a new piece of clothing, happily comparing themselves to see how much they had grown.
Going back a bit, Chunhua walked out of the room and showed off her newly acquired accessories in front of her friends.
The two male children also wanted it, and the dog boy on the side thought that he couldn't treat one favorably and took stock of his own possessions. I just thought that I had grown so much this month, and I just happened to have two new shirts that I had not worn yet. They were mainly green. Gouwa was not used to wearing this color, so he kept them unworn.
So I decided to give each of them one piece! It might be a little bigger, but it shouldn't be a problem, so I can wear it for two more years not only next year but also the year after that. As the saying goes, three years of the new and three of the old are mended one after another. Country children don't have much to pay attention to, and they are very happy when they have new clothes.
Chunhua was also quite envious, standing aside and grabbing the corners of her clothes. Although the clothes she was wearing were not patched, they were actually her sister's old clothes that had been remade for her. Seeing this, Gouwa could only guarantee that she would buy you a piece of cloth when she went back to town next time, and ask her elder sister to make you a beautiful dress later. Only then did the little girl come back from her loss.
Happiness when you are a child is a thing, you will be satisfied if you have it; happiness when you are growing up is a goal, you will be happy when you achieve it; happiness as an adult is a state of mind, if you understand it, you are a blessing.
After eating the meal and accepting the gifts, Da Ya then remembered that she was here to call her younger siblings home for dinner. oh! As for now, there is no need.
So I wanted to say thank you to Gou Wa, but I was disturbed by my little brother who looked like a monkey and asked me if the clothes looked good.
In the end, they all went back to their respective homes. The boy wanted to go home to try on clothes, the eldest sister wanted to go home and give her the first set of valuable jewelry in her life and entrust it to her mother for safekeeping. Chunhua was from the atmosphere group.
The little guys said before they left that they would play again later in the afternoon.
