047 Uncle Jiang's Meeting Ceremony
Just as the father and mother were about to leave, a coughing voice came from the room: "It's Sanmao here."
Three...hair?
The sound of Sanmao completely shocked Mei Niang. On weekdays, the elders in the village call Yunlaosansanzi, the common people call them Laosan, the juniors call them Third Uncle or Third Uncle, and some call them Third Grandpa, but no one calls them.
I called Sanmao.
Unexpectedly, her father's nickname was so popular that Mei Niang covered her mouth in amusement.
Yun Laosan glared at her, his face turned slightly red, and he said, "Brother Zhuangzi, it's me."
As soon as he finished speaking, an upright old man walked out of the room. He was said to be less than fifty years old, but his head was covered with white flowers and his face was sallow. As he walked, he covered his mouth with his fist and kept talking.
Cough twice.
But Mei Niang could tell at a glance that Uncle Jiang was not a simple man. Even though he was sick, his demeanor of not being angry but powerful and not showing any self-respect could make relatives cherish him, those who were distant admire him, and his enemies respected him.
This is not something that anyone can pretend to do, and even those who don’t have many years of experience cannot achieve this kind of magnanimity.
Mei Niang deeply felt that Jiang Chuye, who made her feel frightened when she saw it, was absolutely insignificant compared to him.
"Come here, come here. We brothers haven't sat together and chatted together for many years. We just have a chat tonight. This is Meiniang. Come and let me have a look."
Uncle Jiang was approachable as soon as he opened his mouth, and his amiable attitude made Meiniang's worries disappear a lot. She walked up and called out: "Hello, uncle."
Uncle Jiang looked at Mei Niang kindly, took out a jade pendant from his body and handed it to Mei Niang, "This is the first time we meet, uncle, I don't have anything good, so this jade pendant is just a meeting gift."
Even if Mei Niang doesn’t know the goods, she can tell that this jade pendant is worth a lot of money, so how can she dare to take it?
Especially when she saw Jiang Chuye's lips twitching behind Uncle Jiang. He obviously didn't expect that his father would give this jade pendant as a gift. His brows furrowed when he looked at her, as if his eyes were more inquiring than those on the mountain.
It also made her feel unsure.
Just as he was about to refuse, Yun Laosan said with a smile: "Since your uncle gave it to you, just accept it."
Meiniang was speechless and said to herself: "Father, do you know how much this jade pendant is worth? You can't exchange it for ten cows, so you can't just accept it."
Of course, she didn't expect that Yun Laosan, who had been farming all his life, would recognize the value of the jade pendant. He probably thought it was a bargain that could be bought for a few hundred copper coins.
But since dad said it, how could Mei Niang not accept it? After thanking Uncle Jiang, she kept holding it in her hand, thinking: If Jiang Chuye wanted it, she would just give it back.
Seeing Mei Niang take the jade pendant, Jiang Chuye's eyebrows furrowed even more tightly, and his look at her became playful.
Uncle Jiang had his back to Jiang Chuye and couldn't see his expression. He knew his son's reaction well, but he pretended not to know: "Chu Ye, go in and make a pot of tea. Dad will talk to your uncle Sanmao for a while."
talk."
Jiang Chuye said "Hey" and put two wooden pillars in his hands into the courtyard. Uncle Jiang sat down and asked Mr. Yun to sit down too.
Jiang Chuye moved a large flat stone to make a table, then went into the house and made a pot of tea.
Mei Niang looks familiar, this pot and bowl are obviously her own, that bowl is a big bowl for eating, it is a pity to sample tea like this, and the pot is a good quality tea just by smelling it, but the two brothers
I don't mind her and there's no need to interrupt.
