Chapter 53 Jasmine

Chapter 53 ·Jasmine

Whether you have money or not, marrying a wife will make it easier to celebrate the New Year. This is a deep-rooted thought in many people's bones, so the Tang family and the Zhang family sat together to discuss the wedding date of their two children for half a day, and finally set the wedding date at the end of the year.

The most prosperous day of the year represents prosperity and unlimited hope.

Seeing that the wedding day is approaching day by day, Tang Xueping has been busy making shoes these days. There is a tradition in Jiangnan that a daughter will give a gift to her husband's family when she gets married, and this gift is mostly hand-sewn cloth shoes. Her husband's family will also buy shoes from her husband's family.

The stitch pattern can tell whether the new daughter-in-law is ingenious, virtuous and capable. However, many ready-made clothes are now available in many clothing stores. Many families feel sorry for their daughters and only let their children make a few pairs to honor their parents-in-law. As for others, they buy ready-made ones.

style.

The Tang family wanted to arrange it this way at first, but Tang Xueping was a person with ideas and insisted on doing it herself. She wanted to prove herself in front of her husband's family and leave a good impression on her parents-in-law, relatives and friends.

Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Huang were both experienced and could understand her thoughts and readily agreed.

Although the Zhang family has a small population, there are many relatives. Counting all the uncles, aunts and sisters together, there are twenty or thirty people. Tang Xueping has been so busy recently that she forgets to eat and sleep, and she pursues meticulousness. Cuiping can help with scissors and cut shoes.

As for sewing, it was all Tang Xueping's job. Even so, Tang Xueping was always worried about Cuiping's techniques, and would often criticize Cuiping with a look of helplessness.

Tang Xueping helped Huang clean up until midnight last night. Tang Xueping specifically discussed with her mother that she would not go over to talk to Dong Yuluo today. Huang knew that her daughter worked slowly and carefully, and only made one or two pairs of shoes in half a month. At this rate, she only made one or two pairs of shoes.

I was afraid that it would be good if everything could be completed before the wedding, but she avoided Dong Yuluo just after arriving in Hangzhou, which made people think that she did not take him seriously. Not only would Dong Yuluo be unhappy, but Mrs. Tang would also feel uncomfortable. So she only agreed.

My daughter can make shoes in the house in the morning, but she has to go to Mrs. Tang's place for lunch, and she also has to stay and talk to Dong Yuluo in the afternoon.

Tang Xueping knew her mother's intentions, so she reluctantly agreed.

In order to rush for time, she got up early early and was sweating from the work. Chuntao got the order from Cui's mother and hurried over to tell Tang Xueping that someone from the Zhang family was here. The young lady from the Zhang family also came with her. She was waiting with Bai Rongxuan.

People were chatting in the courtyard of Dong Yuluo's temporary residence.

The Zhang family was her future husband's family, and Miss Zhang's sister-in-law was her sister-in-law. From now on, she would have to deal with a lot of things. She quickly put down her work, cleaned up and hurried over.

When Zhang Yuniang saw her future sister-in-law, she quickly stood up nervously and saluted her.

Tang Xueping grabbed her and asked softly, "When did you arrive?"

"It's just... we've just arrived a while ago," Zhang Yunniang replied in a low voice.

Tang Xueping liked Zhang Yunniang's character from the bottom of her heart.

Before getting engaged, she heard from a matchmaker that her future husband's family had a younger sister-in-law. She was afraid that she would have the same personality as Tang Xueru.

It was hard. I didn’t expect that Zhang Yuniang and Tang Xueru had completely different personalities. Not only were they quiet and well-behaved, but they also didn’t talk much. Tang Xueru felt that he would get along well with her if he married her.

At this moment, I saw that the benches in the corridor were not only covered with thick cushions, but Dong Yuluo's personal maid mother was holding hot tea and cakes. Seeing that they were treating Miss Zhang so favorably, Tang Xueping knew that everyone was trying to save her face, and she rushed gratefully.

Dong Yuluo and Bai Rongxuan smiled.

Bai Rongxuan urged her to go to Mrs. Tang's place to meet Mrs. Zhang. Tang Xueping knew that this was something that could not be delayed, so she and Zhang Yunniang smiled and said, "I'll go see Mrs. Tang and I'll be back soon. You guys wait for me for a while."

Bai Rongxuan joked happily, "Don't worry, I will wait for you no matter how long it takes."

Tang Xueping blushed and quickly followed Cuiping to Mrs. Tang's residence.

Several people looked at her back and left, and the topic returned to Zhang Yunniang. Unfortunately, Zhang Yunniang was not a good talker at all. She only asked and answered questions, and her voice was not loud, like a mosquito buzzing in her ears. Tang Xueru finally

She couldn't stand such a person. She sounded anxious and felt tight in her chest. She simply stood up and said that she was going to the back stove to see what good things Madam Ma had prepared. She didn't wait for Dong Yuluo and Bai Rongxuan's reaction, just like a little rabbit.

He jumped up and ran away.

Dong Yuluo was slightly startled, and seeing Zhang Yunniang's face flushed and looking very embarrassed, he quickly explained, "This girl must be hungry. I wonder what good food she will carry on our back when we get to Houzao."

Zhang Yunniang still blushed with embarrassment and looked ashamed.

Bai Rongxuan knew that although she didn't like to talk, she was very thoughtful and paid attention to many details that others could not notice. Bai Rongxuan got along with her once in her previous life and understood her character. She simply said, "Xueru is a firecracker with the best personality."

It was really hot, she probably didn't like hearing us talk about these colorful topics, so she deliberately made excuses to run away."

Dong Yuluo's eyes widened.

Can you say this? Doesn't this confirm that Tang Xueru doesn't like Miss Zhang?

But she never expected that after hearing Bai Rongxuan's words, Zhang Yunniang not only didn't take offense, but she even breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what topic does she like? When she comes back, we'll pick the one she likes."

Dong Yuluo was surprised.

Bai Rongxuan comforted Zhang Yunniang and said, "It depends on fate to get along with others. In the future, there will be people who can say the right words to her. There is no need to accommodate others. I just like to talk about these flowers and plants. You and I

I said that’s it.”

Isn't it necessary to accommodate others?

Zhang Yunniang looked up at Bai Rongxuan, and finally smiled from the bottom of her heart, "Okay, what kind of flowers do you like? Tell me, I have more than ten kinds of flowers at home, and I will give you a few pots when I divide them into pots."

Bai Rongxuan knew that she was good at raising orchids, but orchids were delicate and difficult to take care of, and better varieties were worth thousands of dollars and were very rare. But the jasmine and camellia grown by Zhang Yunniang were also very beautiful. She said unceremoniously, "Are you growing jasmine? I am special.

I like the smell of jasmine..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhang Yunniang immediately nodded excitedly and said, "I will plant it, I will plant it! I have tiger head jasmine and pearl jasmine at home, and the flowers are blooming very well. I will give you two pots later, which will be nice to put in the room.

It’s fragrant.” Talking about the topics she was good at, Zhang Yunniang gradually started talking more and more, “But jasmine is very prone to insect pests, and it’s particularly easy to relapse. I’ve tried many methods but can’t get rid of the roots. But I also tried to plant peonies this year.

and Narcissus, do you like these two?"

"Only peonies are the true national beauty, and they move the capital when they bloom." Bai Rongxuan said with a smile on her lips and a light and sweet voice, like a little bird, "I am not worthy of such a precious flower. You can cultivate it well."

It is best to let it bloom at the end of the year. When Sister Ping gets married into your family, you can place a few pots in her new house. Relatives and friends will feel happy when they see it, and it will also show that the family values ​​​​the new daughter-in-law."

Zhang Yunniang frowned and started to think about it seriously, "Peonies usually bloom in May. If you want them to bloom at the end of the year, you may have to move them to a greenhouse in advance."

"Hey, you still have a greenhouse at home?" Bai Rongxuan opened her eyes wide, "What are you growing in it?"

Dong Yuluo stood aside and couldn't get a word in. But when she saw Bai Rongxuan deliberately teasing Zhang Yunniang, she still wanted to laugh. Just then, Indigo walked quickly to the corridor and reported, "Miss, our manager Zhou wants to see you."

The two stewards Zhou who came this time are two brothers. They are both very smart and know how to do things. They must have something important to ask for a meeting so rashly.

Dong Yuluo said apologetically to Bai Rongxuan and Zhang Yuniang, "If the housekeeper wants to reply, I'll go see him. You two can chat first."

Bai Rongxuan and Zhang Yuniang hurriedly got up to see each other off, while Dong Yuluo left with Tian's mother, Hanzhu and Indigo.

The corridor immediately became quiet, and only Bai Rongxuan and Zhang Yuniang were left.

The two smiled at each other and sat down together. Bai Rongxuan could see that Zhang Yunniang felt much more relaxed when she was alone with her, and her voice became louder, "I didn't have a greenhouse at home at first, but because I like to grow flowers,

Moreover, many varieties will die in the winter. My father and elder brother saw that I was feeling uncomfortable, so they built a greenhouse for me so that I could transplant the flowers there in the winter, so that they would not die easily."

It is said that it will be released on October 2nd. Let’s celebrate with Motherland~~
