Chapter 77: Going Back to Her Parents' House
Chapter 77 Go back to my parents' home
When Zhao Yunlan took out the silver, the family was in a roar again.
Li Mingmei looked at the eighty taels of silver in front of her, her hands were trembling, and she wanted to catch the silver but couldn't. She asked Zhao Yunlan in disbelief, "Sister-in-law, is this really mine?"
Old Man Li didn't quiver this time because Old Man Li was jealous this time. Seeing that his daughter made more money than him, oh!
Zhao Yunlan took Li Mingmei's hand: "It's yours, silly girl."
Li Mingmei looked at Yinzi and Zhao Yunlan, and smiled happily.
Old Man Li: "Oh, my daughter, I'm stupid enough to have such money! That's not OK!"
Wang stared at Old Man Li, and Old Man Li had to shut up.
Li Mingmei smiled foolishly for a long time before she came to her senses, "Sister-in-law, this is the sixteen taels I handed over to the official school. Dad, mom, I respect you two. If you want to buy five taels, just watch what you want."
Old Man Li reached out and took the five taels of silver, smiled, put it in his hand and touched it again and again.
Wang glanced at Old Man Li and said, "Your filial mother, please collect the money you respect first. You can't spend other money indiscriminately."
Li Mingmei nodded and responded, turned to Zhao Yunlan and said, "Sister-in-law, can I put the money to you and save it?"
Zhao Yunlan nodded: "My little sister can go to the money house to deposit a fifty taels of silver, and you can keep the others yourself."
Li Mingmei said happily: "That's great, but I'll ask my sister-in-law to help me collect the silver bill."
Seeing that their younger sister had made so much money, they could get ten taels of silver when they gave her, and each of them seemed to be aroused by a sense of excitement.
Zhao Yunlan, in response to Li Mingmei's request, everyone packed up and went back to the room to rest.
In the evening, Li Mingren followed Zhao Yunlan and kept looking at Zhao Yunlan's package. Zhao Yunlan was impatient by the inquiring eyes and asked, "What are you doing when you keep watching me?"
Li Mingren whispered: "Have you bought yourself jewelry?"
Zhao Yunlan said indifferently: "I didn't buy it! It's troublesome to wear it, which delays my work!"
Li Mingren nodded and expressed his understanding, thinking about how much money he had to copy the books.
Zhao Yunlan replied again: "But this jewelry is like this! I am happy to wear it if someone else gives it to you."
Li Mingren felt sorry for Zhao Yunlan, so he thought that Zhao Yunlan was hinting at him and secretly made up his mind to give his wife a jewelry.
Zhao Yunlan just thought of a friend who said this in modern times, so she said it casually.
Zhao Yunlan ignored Li Mingren and turned to sleep with Xiaobao in her arms. Now it was a little cold, so Zhao Yunlan asked Li Mingren to sleep on the bed, but Zhao Yunlan and Xiaobao covered a quilt, while Li Mingren covered one by himself.
Li Mingren was lying on the bed and couldn't sleep left and right, and was little by little thinking about how many books he had to copy to make more money. Zhao Yunlan and Xiaobao were sleeping soundly beside him, and Xiaobao's feet were almost running to Li Mingren's face.
The moon has been big and round these days, and the moonlight sprinkled through the gaps, disturbing Li Mingren's thoughts and gradually fell asleep.
Li Mingzhi came back the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Zhao Yunlan took Li Mingren back to the Zhao family. Before leaving, Zhao Yunlan prepared two festive gifts, including sweet potato flour, a few pieces of new soap and fresh wild mountain mushrooms. She also caught two chickens at home and asked Li Mingli to deliver them to Manager Wu and the Liu family courtyard.
Because I had to celebrate the festival at the Li family during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhao Yunlan thought of going back one day in advance.
Zhao Yunlan packed the wine, tea, mooncakes and osmanthus cakes he bought before, and divided the cloths he sent by Manager Wu before. This quantity can basically be made for each of the Li and Zhao families. Manager Wu seemed to have calculated the number of people, and even the color of the cloth could match the people, so Zhao Yunlan was not worried about it when they were divided.
Zhao Yunlan called Li Mingren to tell the cloth that Manager Wu gave him. Li Mingren suddenly realized that he thought about the gift he sent to the Zhao family last time, and sighed repeatedly: "Manager Wu is really interested."
Zhao Yunlan said: "Give gifts are not expensive, but they need to be given appropriately. Manager Wu values the cooperation between us, so he has the intention to choose these cloths to deliver them."
Li Mingren nodded and said silently in his heart: I also value my wife, father-in-law and mother-in-law.
After Li Mingren took Xiaobao into the ox cart, he started to carry the festival gifts onto the ox cart. Zhao Yunlan thought that she had not taken the jewelry she bought in the town, so she turned back to get the jewelry and took twenty taels of silver to pack it together.
The family of three set off in a ox cart.
Along the way, villagers saw Li Mingren go to his mother-in-law's house together, and the couple also loaded the cart of things. They all praised Li Mingren for being so kind to Zhao Yunlan. Now that they have changed their temperament, they all know how to respect their father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Zhao Yunlan kept nodding, responding to the villagers' words, and turned Li Mingren into a good man who broke out of the cocoon and changed his appearance.
Li Mingren was so embarrassed! His face was so blushing that he didn't dare to look up at people. The villagers looked at Li Mingren who was blushing and praised Li Mingren for being ambitious now and his face looked much better. He was well taken care of by Zhao Yunlan at home, and he was not as pale as he had been in school every day as before.
The villagers became more and more excited when they talked. They looked at Xiaobao and then at the two of them. Seeing the couple singing the loving look of their husbands and husbands singing, they kept giving birth, and Zhao Yunlan blushed when she said it.
Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to use the excuse of rushing to rush to turn away these villagers who came to talk to each other for a long time.
The three of them finally came out. Xiaobao was happy and asked stupidly: "Mom, are you going to give birth to a little brother for me? Can I not want my brother? I want my sister!"
Zhao Yunlan explained seriously to Xiaobao's stupid question: "Young brother and sister are not something that my mother wants." Li Mingren, who was next to her, was happy, excited and shy.
When he was about to arrive at Zhaojiagou, Li Mingren suddenly said, "Madam, these things were obviously bought by you and the money you made, why should you respond to them?"
Zhao Yunlan: "It's the same for anyone to buy it! It's a family anyway."
Li Mingren was moved by Zhao Yunlan's family, "Madam, I will definitely work hard and will be admitted to the scholar next year."
Zhao Yunlan smiled: "Then come on!"
Zhao Yunlan actually didn't want to be too obsessed in the village, so when they said that when Li Mingren was, Zhao Yunlan was in line with the situation and could have the opportunity to show herself in the future. After all, the sweet potato flour had been performed in the village before, and it was always too popular, Zhao Yunlan couldn't have a happy gossip with her aunts and sisters in the village.
The Zhao family was waiting for Zhao Yunlan to come back. The villagers in Zhaojiagou watched Zhao Yunlan take her husband and Xiaobao, and the cart was filled with gifts. Everyone envied the Zhao family for finding a good son-in-law. They passed by the Zhao family and said congratulations.
Seeing that there were too many people coming, Zhao Yunlan took out the osmanthus cake for everyone to eat. The villagers praised him again and happily left with the osmanthus cake. The Zhao family was finally able to talk to each other.
Chapter completed!
