Brother so proud

A large group of old and young masters followed behind the marriage proposal team, chattering and discussing a lot. Father He greeted this one, and hello when he saw that one. He Ze nodded and smiled along with him. I froze from laughing.

"Aunt Lin, come out quickly, the person who proposes marriage to your brother Yu is here!"

Before He Youcai knocked on the door, some people joined in the fun and shouted at the top of their voices.The courtyard door was quickly opened, and Zhang Su welcomed people in with a smile on his face.The yard seemed to have been cleaned up specially, and it didn't look crowded with all sixteen boxes.

The gift list was written by He Ze, and the person reading it now is a clan elder in Hejia Village. There are two gongs hanging around his neck, and he is responsible for the loud noise just now.

"... Twelve bolts of cotton cloth, six bolts of silk cloth, six bolts of cloud satin, two pairs of blue and white porcelain vases, eight sets of white porcelain bowls and dishes, a pair of white jade hairpins, a pair of emerald hairpins, and a dowry of iron and wood carvings..."

The clan elder looked very old, but his voice was very loud and powerful. As soon as he read a few words, the villagers talked a lot.

"How much silver do you get for so many pieces of cloth!"

"Where does this come from? Let me tell you, this He Youcai family may have made a fortune, so he didn't look at the emerald hairpin and agate bracelet read later? These are all things used by the nobles in the city. His family really has them." Good luck, He Youcai gave birth to a good son!"

"...A good son is a good son. If you ask me, He Youcai and Li Caiyun are big-hearted. This brother Yu's fate... If there is an accident, these two couples must not cry to death!"

"Bah, bah, bah! It's such a good day, why don't you expect someone to heal you! They say that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good luck, and I think the He family boy is that. I heard that he was ill and dug in the mountain I got a ginseng plant, and then started to grow flowers again, the rarer the better, and the newly opened flower shop can earn a lot of money."

"Hey, He Youcai's youngest son, Brother An, isn't engaged yet, right? He looks good, and his age is about the same as that of my family, so he's a good match!"

"You will think, you don't look at your son's big and three-faced appearance. It's strange that Ang Geer likes it! I think my nephew is good. He is already working as an accountant in the town at a young age. , he is also handsome..."

……

Big and small, expensive and cheap, the gift list was read eloquently for almost 2 minutes, and the topics of the villagers became more and more deviant.After the gift list was finished, the onlookers were still excited and did not disperse.

It's just that after the box was put in the yard, he couldn't do anything. Zhang Su poured a cup of tea for the person who was beating the gongs and drums to carry the burden, and greeted the villagers with some snacks and fruits before inviting him out. Father, He Ze, and the clan elder who read out the gift list invited him into the main hall.

They were engaged earlier, so the next thing was just for the three older ones to talk about the scene, and He Ze sat on the sidelines and smiled from time to time.He didn't feel bored at all, but he couldn't hold back the smile on his face when he thought that Lin Yu might be shut up in his own room by Aunt Lin.

Before leaving, Father He and He Ze put incense sticks on Lin Erlang one after another.Zhang Su sent them out with his front foot, and Lin Yu pushed open the door with his back foot, half revealing his head, "Em?"

"Everyone is gone, come out!"

"Just now, Uncle He said that you and Ozawa's birthdays have been sent to Goddess Zhang in the town, and the auspicious day of marriage will come out in two days. It probably won't take two months." Zhang looked at Lin Yu, The joy on his face could not be concealed.

"Oh--"

Lin Yu bulged his cheeks, bit his lip and glanced at his mother.Under the sun, the white earlobe was bloodshot and red.

Zhang Su couldn't help laughing: "What? Why are you ashamed with your mother?"

"I don't have one," Lin Yu shook his head awkwardly, his eyes fell on the neatly arranged four rows of boxes for a second, and he was suddenly silent.

"what happened?"

"Mum, He Ze... will be fine, right?"

"Silly boy," Zhang Su sighed, and stroked Lin Yu's hair, "Don't worry, you have been engaged for a long time, has anything happened? My brother Yu was born so well, and E-Mu was born again 20 years ago. After making you suffer so much, God will never let you suffer again for the rest of your life."

Lin Yu pursed his lips, his eyes gradually became firm.His palm caressed his lapel, and under his clothes was the jade pendant that He Ze gave him, and at this moment there was a refreshing coolness.

……

The day of getting married was finally set on May NO.20.

The sorceress Zhang originally gave three good days, because it is best to propose a marriage within a hundred days, so I picked one in April and two in May. He Ze originally wanted to choose April, but Li felt that the "four" Feeling bad, he insisted on May with Father He, so He Ze had to compromise.

The most important matter of marriage proposal is over, and the He family has returned to its normal and busy life.When March came, the marriage proposal, which was still talked about by the villagers, was suppressed by another matter.

It's time for conscription.

A few days ago, this incident passed through the mouths of several clan elders. The villagers may have heard some rumors, but it has not been implemented in the end, so it is only spread in secret. However, some villages in the county have been registering for investigation in the past two days. Once confirmed, the news of conscription was overwhelming in an instant.

Drunk lying on the battlefield, Lord Grim, how many people have fought in ancient times?

Even though it was just the happy time of busy farming, the village suddenly felt a lot more depressed, and it was hard to hear laughter.

This day, Mrs. Li took He Ze back to Li's Village. He wasn't worried about the conscription.After all, Li's family is well-off, and after so many years of operation, the two men can still get four taels of silver as military subsidies.

It's just that even if you don't worry about it, this matter is still a big deal, at least you have to vent your breath, and He Ze has proposed marriage to Lin Yu again, so you have to let him know.

Originally, Mrs. Li planned to ask Father He to take He Ze there, but Mrs. He was still holding his breath, and when he heard this, he drove the carriage to the town angrily, and Mrs. Li stomped his feet in anger.

"Amu, let daddy be self-willed this time, and besides, didn't he give you all the money he had on his body? He just asked you to bring more things over there. Dad has a big heart and is not a stingy person." He Ze glanced at Father He's back, and coaxed with a smile.

How could Mrs. Li not know about He's father's temper, and it would be fine after a while. The mother and son went with big and small bags, and came back with big and small bags, bringing a lot of dry goods and a basket of eggs.

On March [-], the patriarch He Hong gathered all the villagers of Hejia Village together with drums and gongs, thoroughly confirming the news of conscription.

The whole Hejia Village was suddenly gloomy.The only thing that can be thankful is that the military compensation has not increased, and two taels of silver can leave a family member behind.

In the next half month, people would come to the house to borrow money basically every day, some were really difficult, some were just taking advantage of the autumn wind, He Zeding didn't care about this matter at all, it was all up to Li's decision.

After the difficult situation of last year, everyone in this village has black and white hearts, and Mrs. Li knows exactly what to do. Some borrow money without saying a word, and some don’t even give a penny even if they roll around at the door of the house. They are very stubborn. .

What?My family is rich?My family’s money didn’t come from strong winds. It was earned by my son through hard work. I didn’t steal or rob. I can spend it however I want and borrow whoever I want, it’s none of your business!

It has to be said that, with his son promising and money in his pocket, Mrs. Li has a lot of confidence in speaking.

At the flower shop, in addition to winning a good start on the first day, business was also very good in the next four or five days. Seven pots were sold on the second day, five pots were sold on the third day, and three pots were sold on the fourth day. Six, 49 potted flowers, only fourteen pots left.Including Guan Du sent back a pot, a total of fifteen pots.

Fortunately, He Ze bought a lot of flowers before, and they just sprinkled them on the ground when they couldn't grow them in the pots. When He An watered them, he usually watered them too, and with He Ze around, these flowers and plants It also grows well, and most of them are in full bloom. After pruning and transplanting into pots, they are also beautiful and beautiful.

Finally, we avoided the embarrassment of being closed due to out of stock within three days of opening.

On the other hand, He Ze and Lin Yu finally became a well-known husband and wife relationship, but before he had time to develop a relationship with his fiancé, he asked Father He to go to the flower shop to help.

"It's worthless, brother An is so busy in the shop, you, a brother, don't even think about helping him share, what does it sound like to hang around behind your wife every day!"

He Ze: "..." It sounds like you haven't wandered around like this before!

Despite complaining inwardly, He Ze sensibly kept silent on the surface.When the two father and son were driving the ox cart out of the village, it happened that Lin Tiangui and his eldest grandson Lin Fu came out of the side road.

A village is only that big, and it took a long time to spread the word about what happened to the family. He Ze heard a lot of gossip about the Lin family. He has to say that the Lin family is really miserable now, but the worse the Lin family is, the more comfortable He Ze listens to it. Retribution is not good, isn't it?As for sympathy, he was eaten by zombies 800 years ago.

Unexpectedly, Lin Tiangui didn't stare at him viciously today, and even had a smile on his face, but the smile was distorted, with a hint of madness, He Ze glanced at him and didn't take it seriously.

When the bullock cart was far away, Lin Fu next to him couldn't bear it anymore, "Grandpa, let's go quickly, let's go find Eminem, I want Eminem!"

"Okay, Grandpa will take you to find your mother." Lin Tiangui turned around with a kind face. He stroked Lin Fu's hair, and repeated with empty eyes, "I will take you to find mother."

Leaving aside the matter of the grandfather and grandson, when He Youcai took He Ze to the flower shop, the flower shop was idle, and while Cai Yun was watering, he taught Liu San and the others the habits of various flowers and plants. Borrowing a sand table beside the counter to practice calligraphy——Since the days when the flower shop opened, He An’s practice of calligraphy has been put on the agenda again. He Ze taught He Ze when He Ze came, and Cai Yun taught when He Ze didn’t come. Big characters, it won't take a few hours.

"—Father, is this what you said you were busy?"

"Isn't he busy? Look at Master Cai, he has to greet guests, take care of flowers and plants, and teach Liu San and the others when he has nothing to do. Even Xiaoan needs to read..."

"All right, all right, I understand!" He Ze completely surrendered.It has been almost a month since the flower shop opened, and its reputation has spread. In fact, the business has stabilized. On average, one pot can be sold every five or six days. It is not bad to have seven or eight customers a day.

It looks bleak, but it is not. You must know that the flowers sold in this flower shop cost ten taels and twenty taels of silver for a pot, even the cheap ones cost five or six taels. After a month, you can earn 20 taels of silver, and The cost is almost negligible, which is a huge benefit.

This is what He Ze originally wanted for the flower shop. With the convenience of his wood-type abilities, the flower shop is small and easy to manage, and at the same time has high profits, and after the stable income here every month, Yao Tian Over there, I just toss about myself.

After greeting several people in the shop, Father He went to the backyard without stopping. He has been busy with his carpentry these days.He Ze glanced at some vacant flower stands in the flower shop, and asked Liu San and the other two to move seven or eight pots to the backyard, which were delivered from home a few days ago.

There were no guests, so He Ze helped Cai Yun to share the work. He was so busy until noon that the flower shop ushered in an unexpected visitor.
