Lucky husband

After all, they were just young people engaged in marriage. Neither Bai Yaoshi nor Jiang Zhiyun and Li Chengshi wanted them to meet alone for too long, so they walked out when the time was almost up, interrupting their chat.

Bai Zhiwen just felt that time passed too fast, he hadn't said a few more words to Brother Jin, but he couldn't say anything in front of his elders, so he could only give in.

Li Mingjin was a little shy at the moment, he was relieved to see the elders come out, took a step back and "hid" beside Jiang Zhiyun, pretending to ignore Bai Zhiwen's fiery eyes.

Bai Zhiwen felt a little regretful, but thinking about Li Mingjin's promise to make him another purse, he felt better again.

Under the circumstances that both parties were willing to facilitate the marriage, Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingjin's marriage went smoothly, and the process was completed very quickly. After that, the two of them will have fiancés and fiancés. Bai Zhiwen can go to Li's house to marry Li Mingjin at the time agreed by his family.

After saying a few more words, Bai Yao took Bai Zhiwen and left Li's house. Jiang Zhiyun hurriedly took Li Mingjin back to the room and asked him what he had just said to Bai Zhiwen.

Li Mingjin took out the jade pendant that seemed to have someone's body temperature on it, and concealed from Jiang Zhiyun that she promised Bai Zhiwen to be a purse.

"Zhiwen has a heart." Li Mingjin can see what Jiang Zhiyun can naturally see. It is clear at a glance who made the jade pendant. Jiang Zhiyun feels that it is not wrong for Brother Jin to be "deceived" by Bai Zhiwen. When I receive such a token of love, I will definitely be particularly moved and heartbroken.

Of course, now Li Chengshi still gives her small gifts from time to time, she is also very touched, every time there is a feeling that the two of them are still newlyweds, very sweet.

Jiang Zhiyun returned the jade pendant to Li Mingjin, and looked at Li Mingjin who couldn't hide the smile in her eyes even though she suppressed the curvature of her mouth as much as possible, and went to Li Chengshi with her heart full of disappointment.

Li Mingjin didn't know what happened to his mother, and his mood suddenly became depressed, but he thought it was better not to ask.

After Jiang Zhiyun left, Li Mingjin carefully closed the door of the room, took out the crumpled piece of material, took out a piece of clean straw paper, and started drawing on it with a charcoal pencil.

Li Mingjin thought, the jade pendant that Big Brother Bai gave him was engraved with flowers and plants under his own window, so what would be embroidered on the purse that Big Brother Bai made?

With his chin propped up, Li Mingjin tried hard to recall things related to Bai Zhiwen. After thinking about it, he decided to follow Bai Zhiwen's literature and embroider him the scenery outside his window - a clump of asparagus bamboo.

This clump of asparagus bamboo grew in the yard of the Bai family, and it was specially found by the head of Bai Yao's family, Tuobai. She felt that the bareness outside her son's window was unattractive, and she also thought that all scholars like bamboo. Ordinary bamboo tends to become rough when it grows up. He is tall and bulky, not to mention blocking the light in Bai Zhiwen's room, so he planted some asparagus bamboos for him, and when he was tired from reading, he looked at the asparagus bamboos outside the window to change his mood.

Li Mingjin was very impressed with this clump of asparagus bamboos. There are many bamboos growing around the village. In spring, his aunts often go together to dig bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, but asparagus bamboos are rare. Surprised.

Of course, Li Mingjin firmly refused to admit that he decided to embroider asparagus bamboo because his current needlework was not good enough, and he couldn't embroider other things well, and bamboo was relatively simple.

After thinking about what to embroider, he started to draw a sketch. Drawing a picture is much easier than doing embroidery. After a while, Li Mingjin finished the sketch. He picked up the straw paper and put it on the material to make gestures. He nodded in satisfaction, it was perfect!

From this day on, when Li Mingjin was free, she locked herself in her room to make this purse. If Jiang Zhiyun wanted to find him, she had to knock on the door before entering.

This made Jiang Zhiyun feel more and more that her brother had changed after he got engaged, that there was a little secret, and that he and his mother were no longer kissing each other.

Only two days after such a day, Li Chengshi suddenly said at the dinner table one day when he was having dinner: "Yunniang, brother Jin, Mingde and Zhiwen are leaving for Fucheng today."

Jiang Zhiyun nodded when she heard the words: "Have you gone to see them? Is everything prepared?"

The so-called whether the things are complete means that the money is enough. After all, they are going to such a far place. If they are short of money on the way, it will be really embarrassing. The people at home can't help them.

Besides, the two of them are going to Fucheng to study, they will live for a long time, and they need a lot of things. The cheapest, comfortable and fast way to travel from Changping County to Fucheng is by boat. The amount of luggage is limited, and many things cannot be carried with me. I can only buy a new set after arriving in Fucheng, which also requires money.

"Well, it's complete." Li Chengshi nodded.

On Li Mingde's side, Li Chengzhi and the others gave the young couple 300 taels of silver.

It is too eye-catching to carry 300 taels of silver with you. It is not safe to carry it all with bank notes. After all, bank notes are made of paper. If the bank notes get wet, nothing will be lost. They have thought of many ways Only then did I bring all the 300 taels of silver.

First of all, Li Chengzhi and the others went to the bank to exchange gold worth 200 taels of silver, that is, 20 taels of gold. It is impossible for people to see that there is something in the clothes from the outside.

Then, Bai Ting made two purses with fine stitches, and put silver notes tightly wrapped in oiled paper in the two purses, a total of 90 taels.

The last thing is the silver that they carry with them. Li Mingde carried four taels of silver and Bai Ting carried two taels of silver. Their luggage contained two taels of loose silver and two thousand copper plates.

In this way, the two of them had ten taels of silver with them, which was enough for them to travel all the way from Changping County to Fucheng.

Li Chengshi on Bai Zhiwen's side didn't ask very clearly, but he knew that Bai Zhiwen had 100 taels of silver on him, so he was relieved.

Back then, she and Bai Yaoshi were a woman with two children, and she could find ways to carry 100 taels of gold on her body. Now that Bai Zhiwen, a grown man, went out, it was easy to hide 100 taels of silver on him.

In the beginning, Bai Yao also wanted Bai Zhiwen to bring 300 taels of silver, but Bai Zhiwen didn't want that much. He thought his situation was different from Li Mingde's. It costs more to rent a house outside the government school.

And he can directly live in the dormitory provided by the government school and eat the food provided by the canteen of the government school, and he doesn't need much money for food and lodging.

Besides, he has just arrived in a new environment, and he is not familiar with his classmates, so others will not rashly invite him to participate in poetry, literature, tea, or receptions. If there is no entertainment, there will be no expense in human relations, 100 Two silver coins are already enough.

Bai Zhiwen wanted to make money, but he didn't know anything about the situation in Fucheng now, his eyes were smeared and he didn't know what to do with the money, so he didn't need to bring all the money there in the first place.

Waiting for him to go there for half a year, after getting to know Fucheng, he will bring some more money over when he comes back this year during the Chinese New Year, to see if he can find a reliable way to make money.

The only thing that confuses Bai Zhiwen is whether to go to Li's house to talk to Brother Jin before leaving. After much deliberation, he decided not to talk this time.

When he went to Fucheng, he had to take the official examination. Although he believed that he could pass the exam, if something happened and he didn't pass the exam, it would be embarrassing.

And Bai Zhiwen was also worried about what he would do if he saw Brother Jin and was reluctant to leave. He always dreamed of Brother Jin at night recently, which made him excited and a little hard to say.

The consequence of Bai Zhiwen leaving without telling was that Li Mingjin became angry. He was very unhappy, and when he returned to the room, he stuffed the purse that had already started work into the small box again and pressed it down.

Mingming's elder brother Li Mingde didn't say goodbye either, but Li Mingjin was only angry with Bai Zhiwen. Sitting on the stool, he felt tight in his chest and clenched his hands into fists. In the end, he couldn't hold back and hammered a few times on the bed. , muttering in a low voice: "If I knew he would leave so early, why am I in such a hurry to make a purse? Maybe he doesn't care about it at all, but I said a few nice words to make people happy at that time. It really pissed me off!"

"Don't do it, don't do it, what purse, I will never do it again, whoever loves to do it, do it!"

"I don't want to make any clothes anymore. You said it so nicely before, so you left as soon as you said it. You didn't tell me when you proposed marriage. You didn't take me seriously at all!"

……

Li Mingjin was dizzy with anger. He forgot that Li Mingde and Bai Zhiwen had already discussed the departure date before Bai Zhiwen came to propose marriage. Li Mingde even mentioned it to Li Mingjin. thing.

Burying his head in the quilt, Li Mingjin felt that his heart was stuffy and his eyes were sore and swollen, as if something was about to flow out of his eyes. He blinked hard to suppress the feeling go down.

Jiang Zhiyun had been feeling sad for the past few days that her little cabbage was going to run away, but when she saw that Li Mingjin was angry and sad because of Bai Zhiwen's "farewell without saying goodbye", she was very worried again.

Seeing Li Mingjin's awkward look, she was worried that Li Mingjin would be unhappy because of this matter, and how angry she would hurt her body, especially if she was sullen, and she was also worried that Bai Zhiwen would get bored with Li Mingjin's temperament after a long time.

You must know that a man occasionally coaxes his wife or husband, it is just for fun, if the other party is tempered every day, no matter how good-tempered he is, he will not be able to stand it, and it is not easy to grasp this degree after marriage.

After thinking about it, Jiang Zhiyun still didn't ask Li Mingjin to talk about this topic alone. First, she told Brother Jin that Bai Zhiwen had just left and said these things might make him even more impatient to listen. Second, it was still a while before Brother Jin got married. After more than two years, Brother Jin got used to her and taught him after a while.

Li Mingjin's anger came and went quickly, and after one night, he returned to his usual appearance, but he did not shut himself up in the room to secretly do embroidery work, nor did he learn to make wedding dresses like before. So positive.

Jiang Zhiyun saw it in her eyes, remembered it in her heart, and planned to wait a few days to talk to Li Mingjin slowly.
