Nongmen Shenjue
Chapter 23
As soon as the carriage entered the village, it attracted a lot of attention.
The carriage went straight into the fenced yard of Mu's house, Mu Wan heard the sound and came out of the house, and Aunt Zhao and Sister-in-law Wang were also there.
"Second brother?" Mu Wan was surprised to see him come back, and thought it was something wrong, but she was even more surprised when she saw the cloth he brought out from the car: "Why did you buy so much cloth?"
"Sister, there are still some in the car, let's move them down. During this period of time, Xiaowen and Xiaowu have grown a lot taller, and their clothes have become shorter. Besides, the summer clothes from before are too old, so I just make two more at a time." Body." Mu Qingyan said while greeting Aunt Zhao and Wang Sister-in-Law.
"Oh, look, Aunt Zhao, what a bright material, so fine and soft, how expensive it is!" Sister-in-law Wang was envious at first glance, but when she found so much piled up in the car, her eyes widened and she couldn't help blurting out: " Second brother of the Mu family, are you getting rich?"
After Mu Wan was surprised, she became angry: "Mu Qingyan! You, you prodigal bastard!"
Mu Qingyan was stunned by the scolding, and smiled awkwardly.
This is also a habit left over from his previous life. He doesn't like shopping very much. Every time he buys clothes, he buys them in piles. To save trouble, he also likes to buy different colors of the same style.Furthermore, since he was able to earn money, he has never had to worry about money. He is single and has no burden, and spending money has never been counted.
Now that I've changed places and opened a restaurant, it's fun to count my expenses every day.
Because of this, one didn't pay attention today, and the "proudness" was exposed again.
Aunt Zhao quickly smoothed things over with a smile: "Okay, Xiaowan, Qingyan has never been an ignorant person. This material seems to be a lot, but there are five brothers and sisters in your family, and Qingyan is also careful, thinking about making two new clothes for the whole family. .”
"It won't take so much." Mu Wan was really distressed, and couldn't help but glared at him again: "I told you a long time ago not to be loose in your hands. Would it be hot to keep your money? You don't know how to be frugal when you just earn a little money. so……"
As he spoke, he thought of the words about not getting married, and his heart was blocked even more.
Sister-in-law Wang helped move the fabric with a smile: "You, I just worry too much. Your family is better now, not in the past. Your second brother can earn money, he is a shopkeeper, and he is young, so he is not allowed to wear two clothes. Nice dress."
After moving the fabrics, Aunt Zhao and Sister-in-law Wang left.
Mu Xiu was nine years old, she already knew about beauty, she was overjoyed when she saw the material, and begged Mu Wan to make her a new dress.Mu Wan nodded in response, but slightly frowned and sighed.
"Eldest sister, but elder brother's marriage is not going well?" Mu Qingyan asked directly.
Mu Wan nodded: "Sister-in-law Wang went to Yu's house a few days ago, hoping to lower the betrothal gift, but Yu's family disagreed."
"How much foreign debt does the Yu family owe?"
"I heard that I owed four taels of silver. I inquired about it. Miss Yu used to see a doctor and take medicine for at most two taels of silver. It was because her second brother asked for a lot of bride price when she got married. Now Miss Yu is talking about marriage, and it is also her second sister-in-law who asks for it." Six taels, you said you can’t lose money in raising a daughter.” Mu Wan was worried when she mentioned it: “I thought it would be easy, after all, the five taels of betrothal gift is already very high, but the Yu family not only did not let go, but was also very firm. Wang My sister-in-law told me that it was the Yu family who heard that you and your eldest brother had received a lot of rewards, and wanted to increase the price. What do they think this is, selling their daughter?"
"What did big brother say?"
"I went to ask, but my elder brother disagreed. He said that this marriage should be forgotten, and we can find another one. It's not that easy. I thought it was just a matter of one tael of silver." Mu Wan has always been unyielding. What was involved was Mu Lin's marriage, and she would have gone back to such a family long ago.
Mu Qingyan sneered: "This is a matter of one tael of silver."
First of all, there is a problem with the Yu family's mentality. Furthermore, the other party wants to get married because they like the Mu family's wealth.Even if they didn't, they would become in-laws in the future, and the Yu family would cause many disputes if they acted like this.
"Big brother is already 22, and it will be another year if we delay." Mu Wan was about to die of worry.
At this time, someone came from outside: "The eldest sister of the Mu family! Are you at home?"
Mu Wan frowned when she heard the voice: "It's Mrs. Niu."
Mu Qingyan went out together and saw Ma Guihua as expected.
Ma Guihua pulled the people behind her: "This is my natal sister, He Hua, who brought me something today. I took her out and ran through the door. Just now I saw that your family came with a carriage. Did the big brother come back? I've seen that big brother is a promising person, leading the errands in the government office, he is beautiful and rich, I don't know how enviable he is!"
"Sister-in-law sit in the room." No matter what, the visitor is a guest, Mu Wan greeted and looked at the horse lotus.
In the past, I only heard his name and never saw a real person.
This Ma Hehua followed behind Ma Guihua with her head down. The two sisters were slightly fatter, and they looked alike.
Ma Hehua's reputation is due to the fact that she has not yet married at eighteen.It's not that she is not good-looking or demanding, on the contrary, in the eyes of the farmers, such a fat woman is very popular, and eating fat is a blessing, which shows that she has a good body and good fertility.
Although Ma Hehua has an ordinary appearance, she has a fair complexion and works swiftly and diligently. She can not only manage the house, but also be a strong laborer in the fields.In the early years, I don’t know how many people proposed to marry, but unfortunately, the man in the first marriage drowned, and in the second marriage, the man fell seriously ill, so rumors spread that the man’s family not only withdrew the marriage, but also asked Niu’s family to pay for medical treatment , Said that Ma Hehua wanted to kill their son.
Looking at Ma Guihua, one can tell that Ma's family is not easy to bully, let alone others, Ma Hehua, who is the center of rumors, is not easy.She said that it is okay to withdraw the marriage, and the bride price can also be refunded, but if she wants the Ma family to lose money, then she will directly live in the man's house.
This tough remark scared the family away.
Looking at the shy Ma Hehua in front of me, it's really hard to put it right.
However, as soon as Ma Guihua came here, she kept mentioning Mu Lin, and she wanted to match Mu Lin earlier, so Mu Wan was vigilant.Even if she felt sorry for Niu Hehua's fate, it didn't mean she wanted Ma Hehua to be her sister-in-law.
"Elder Sister, I'll go back to the ferry first." Mu Qingyan is naturally not good at chatting with the female guest as a man, anyway, everything has been said, so let's go.
Mu Wan couldn't care about the Ma sisters, so she stopped him: "Wait, you still say that Xiaowen and the others, you have grown in stature. Wait, I'll get the rope to measure for you, otherwise I won't be able to cut clothes. "
I don't have a tape measure at home, so I use rope and knots to record the measurements.
Mu Qingyan also told her: "If you buy too much material, it won't look bright after a long time. Don't worry about it. Each person should make at least two clothes." After thinking for a while, he said, "Don't worry too much about big brother, wait for me. Talk to elder brother. Now the family situation is better, and elder brother is only in his twenties, marriage is not too difficult, we still have to find out slowly, the more urgent, the more likely to make mistakes."
Mu Wan sighed: "I see, you all have ideas, and I don't worry about it for nothing." Suddenly she changed the subject: "You said what are you buying all these fabrics for, and you can't finish the clothes. I think, if you really If you can’t save money, you might as well use it to buy land. Now my eldest brother is in the yamen, at least I know two people, if I really want to buy land, I can find a way.”
"Buying land is not as good as buying mountains." Mu Qingyan said casually.
"Buy a mountain? What nonsense are you talking about!" Mu Wan gave him a white look, determined to stop his nonsense.
Mu Qingyan smiled.
It is true that he bought the mountain by the way, but it is not nonsense, after all, he is not doing it to make money, but out of his own preference.It's still the same old saying, he doesn't value money, as long as he has enough, but if he can live surrounded by mountains and forests, it will be the most comfortable and comfortable for him.
The two of them were in Mu Wan's room, and the fabrics they bought before were also placed in this room.
In her own home, someone came to the door again, but the door was not closed. Mu Wan planned to quickly measure the size and go to greet the Niu family sisters.Unexpectedly, without saying a few words, Ma Guihua suddenly broke in and went straight to the fabrics.
"Hey, so much material? It's so beautiful, it will cost a lot of money, right?" Ma Guihua rubbed her hands on it, then pulled the girl beside her, and said loudly: "Look at the lotus, if you wear it The clothes made of this material should be so beautiful. The big brothers of the Mu family are really earning a lot of money, and their lives are getting better and better. If anyone marries in, they really don’t have to worry about food and clothing."
Mu Wan was in a panic at first, but when she saw Ma Guihua tearing off the peach-red material and gesturing towards Niu Hehua, her eyebrows were raised immediately: "Sister-in-law! Are you thirsty after talking for a long time? It's rare to come to my house for a stroll, you can't Not even drinking saliva."
As he said that, he directly snatched the material from Ma Guihua's hand, and pulled Ma Guihua's wrist out of the room.
The horse lotus didn't make a sound from the beginning to the end, and followed behind to go out, but just took a look at the bright and bright fabrics before going out.
Mu Qingyan couldn't help laughing when he thought of Ma Guihua's character.
The appearance of the Ma family sisters is also considered a good thing. Within a day, everyone in the village will definitely know that the Mu family has bought a lot of fabrics. In this way, it is tantamount to proving that the Mu family is not what it used to be. Is Mu Lin's marriage still worrying?
The carriage went straight into the fenced yard of Mu's house, Mu Wan heard the sound and came out of the house, and Aunt Zhao and Sister-in-law Wang were also there.
"Second brother?" Mu Wan was surprised to see him come back, and thought it was something wrong, but she was even more surprised when she saw the cloth he brought out from the car: "Why did you buy so much cloth?"
"Sister, there are still some in the car, let's move them down. During this period of time, Xiaowen and Xiaowu have grown a lot taller, and their clothes have become shorter.
