Chapter 44
The next morning, Zilan and Shuhui got up early and were about to go to burn incense with the old lady. After washing their faces and combing their hair, Zilan pulled Yang to act coquettishly.
"Mom, remember I want to donate a single portion of sesame oil."
After hearing this, the old lady turned her head and asked, "Why is this?"
"When I was sick, I dreamed of a Bodhisattva. I thought it was the Bodhisattva who blessed me. I should donate one separately, which is my sincerity."
Zi Lan blinked her eyes and talked nonsense.
"There is still this thing, what did the Bodhisattva say to you?"
The old lady asked with a smile.
"I said nothing, there was a golden light, it was very dazzling, and then I woke up and it was dawn."
Zi Lan fiddled with the jade pendant around her waist, and today she wore a pink butterfly-embroidered Hunan skirt. The pink and tender color was only the children's clothes that were not abrupt, and they were embarrassed to wear it when they were old.
"Oh, since that's the case, donate a single money for sesame oil to her. This is the child's heart."
The old lady didn't believe Zi Lan's words, but she would not refute it. It was because the Bodhisattva blessed the child by donating a piece of incense and oil.
Yang pushed his daughter down on the seat, and Song Zhengtian held her in his arms, holding a bowl to feed the child.
"Let me eat it, I eat it very well."
"It's okay, I'll feed it. You can eat it first. After eating, we're going to go out."
Song Zhengtian's wife smiled and fed her daughter to dinner.
Yang shook his head helplessly, ignored it and started eating by himself.
Shuhui looked at her and turned her face to act coquettishly with her father, "Dad, I want you to feed me too."
"Go, I'm going to court, so how can I have time to feed you? Be good, eat it yourself."
The second son Yang Lin glared at Song Zhengtian, it was all your fault. After saying that, he hurriedly took a few bites of food and went out quickly. It was too late for him to go to court.
Ma laughed and hugged his pouting daughter and fed her to the meal.
Zilan shook her head proudly and shook her feet very satisfied. At this moment, she was very heartwarming and satisfied. Before she knew it, she had already regarded Yang and Song Zhengtian as her own parents. The love given to her by the couple has healed the pain and regrets left in her previous life.
After a while of dinner, Madam Xu came in with the materials, which were made of satin fabric, soft and smooth.
Zi Lan saw it and stretched her head to look out, "Madam, show it to me."
"Okay, I'm going to make clothes for the two little masters. The season is about to change. What color and color do you two like to choose?"
As he said that, he also arranged all the fabrics in a row and asked her and Shuhui to choose.
Shuhui spoke first, "Sister, choose first. If I choose, my mother should say that I am not as good as my sister."
She pouted and looked angry, and her cute look made everyone in the room laugh.
Zi Lan giggled, "Then I'll choose first. I want this piece of satin that is not embroidered with color, and it will look very good if it is embroidered with folded branches.
There is also this green green, gold-woven jacquard satin material. It’s very good to make Hunan skirts. Just add a lotus-colored one."
When Song Zhengtian saw that there were pink, red, and tender yellow colors. In fact, there were several beautiful and tender colors, which were most suitable for children to make clothes. The colors were also brighter and the jacquard was very beautiful.
"How do you choose the color that is not too bright?"
Song Zhengtian said something.
Zilan smiled, "I also need to embroider the flowers. I don't like too many flowers. The simple ones look elegant. Besides, I have all those colors, so it's not good to wear repeated clothes."
Ma smiled and said, "Hui'er likes these colors. Most of her clothes are like this. It must be Lan'er who gave in to Hui'er. Lan'er's temperament is so considerate."
"Auntie, don't praise me. I really don't like these colors so much. I still like them to look better with embroidered flowers. I like all kinds of colors."
"This child just likes to be lighter. If you don't care about her, she has a big idea. She doesn't like colorful butterflies all over her body, and she doesn't want to be colorful. She doesn't let so many things be around her neck. She feels so despised that she has too many requirements."
Yang shook his head and laughed.
"Lan'er can dress up and will be a beautiful girl in the future."
Ma praised her repeatedly. She saw her daughter nervously pinching her sleeves, for fear that Lan'er would choose the color she liked, so she didn't expect that she would give her all the rest.
Shuhui smiled embarrassedly, "Madam Xu, my sister always takes care of me and let the embroidery room embroidery be more beautiful."
"Okay, don't worry."
Madam Xu nodded happily.
Zi Lan finished eating and rinsed her mouth. Only then did she realize that the wealthy family really grew up with Jin Zun and Yu Gui, and the one who rinsed her mouth was fragrant tea.
There is a fragrant tea made after the flowers and plants are dried, which tastes very fragrant. The ones she eats contain mint, which can refresh her mouth. The ancients were very particular, and at least they had to rinse their mouths with mint leaves.
"Okay, let's go."
After packing up, I put on a thin embroidered cloak for the children so that I would not be able to blow the wind when I came back in the afternoon.
As soon as Zilan and Shuhui left the yard, they saw Zhao Xuaner coming too.
"I would like to pay my respects to my aunt, and I want to go with me. Can I bring incense sticks to my mother?"
"Then you can go with the old lady in the same carriage, Lan'er, let's go."
After hearing this, Yang nodded slightly and agreed.
"Oh, sister is gone."
Shuhui pouted, Ma pulled her. Shuhui didn't say anything and followed her out and climbed into the carriage to do it. Ma went with her to take care of her mother-in-law and children today.
I helped the old lady get into the car before I got down.
Zhao Xuan'er was sitting in the carriage, a little restrained. Her green onion skirt was very light, but she looked a little thin. However, she had been in the Hou Mansion for almost a month and had a good look on her face, which was much better than when she first came.
Zilan got into the car and asked, "Mom, you don't like Zhao Xuan'er."
She used the affirmative sentence.
"Not really, I just can't get close to her."
Yang did not tell Zi Lan about the past, and Zi Lan did not find out anything bad. She just observed the voice-over of grandmother. It was because Zhao Xuan'er's mother was thinking about her father back then.
"Oh, I don't like it very much, but I don't like her either, because Sister Xuan'er is too sensitive and has a very boring temperament. Unlike Sister Hui'er, you can just say it directly, it's nothing to just quarrel, it won't be enough to use it for a while."
Shuhui has a carefree personality and is generous and upright. She almost doesn't quarrel with her. She gives her half of everything. It's just the color that the little girl likes, and I want to keep some of the things she likes. If she has two, she will definitely give her half of it without hesitation.
What she likes and hates, Shuhui speaks out loud and does not hide it. Zilan feels comfortable getting along like this and she won’t take care of her children. She just lets her give in and takes care of her every day. Xuan'er is too sensitive and feels a little embarrassed.
"The Zhao family is a merchant, and the rules may be loose, but the battle is absolutely fierce. Just look at how her mother can lose all her dowry.
Zhao Xuan'er is not as dull and honest as you think. You should observe more in the future. If you don't mind being kind to her, if you are traitorous in your heart, you should pay attention.
After all, she is not as generous and straightforward as Shuhui and cannot be her best friend."
Yang saw it very clearly and also very considerate.
