Happy Marriage

Leng Nanxian, who was on the side, interrupted the two of them displeasedly: "The fish is ready."

When he was cleaning the fish, he slashed a few knives on the fish, and the fish was not too thick, so it quickly cooked through. He handed a bunch of grilled fish to An Sheng and whispered, "Be careful of burning your mouth."

An Sheng was already hungry when he smelled the aroma. He couldn't wait to hear the words. He took a bite, and he was so hot that he sucked in cold air.

She devoured it, and after a while, she nibbled a fish clean, leaving only the bones of the fish attached to the head and tail.

"Do you want another one?" Leng Nanxian turned to look at the fish in his hand: "This fish is different from Shicai's fish, it is the big white fish, the first of the four famous fish. Tribute, luckily I caught one today."

An Sheng looked at the big white fish that Leng Nanxian praised. He couldn't resist temptation. He took the fish in his hand and took a bite. Tongue, but they were afraid to say it, the two laughed at themselves for not knowing taste, and ate slowly.

Yu Jingyun was anxious about the wild geese in the fire pit, and used a stick to move it around. Seeing that An Sheng had eaten two fish in a row, he was a little anxious: "If you are full, how can you eat the wild geese?"

Leng Nanxian coughed lightly, with a malicious smile: "This fish and geese are mutually exclusive, and taking them at the same time will cause blisters on the face, and eventually fester, and itching is unbearable."

"Impossible?" An Sheng was a little skeptical: "Just eat a little bit. Besides, I haven't heard that these two kinds of meat are mutually compatible?"

Leng Nanxian smiled confidently: "Xue Hai Wu Ya, are you sure that the book you read represents everything?"

An Sheng was immediately speechless.

"You listen to his nonsense, it's alarmist! I have eaten so many geese, how come I never knew it?" Yu Jingyun retorted coldly.

"I don't know it doesn't mean it's not poisonous." Leng Nanxian said calmly, swallowed the fish in his hand, and cleaned his hands slowly: "Yu Shizi bakes slowly. We won't bother. I and I An Sheng is going back."

Yu Jingyun was anxious: "I haven't eaten yet."

Leng Nanxian glanced at the sun: "If you want to be fully cooked, the wild goose will probably take more than an hour before the bones and flesh will become rotten. Yu Shizi wait slowly, we still have things to do."

Yu Jingyun raised his face and glanced at him meaningfully: "It's just a wild goose, you are so reluctant to let the little girl stay? Your master's discipline is too broad?"

Leng Nanxian pursed his lips: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, and my apprentice is too stupid, so I have to guard against it."

Yu Jingyun sneered: "Is there anyone more sinister than you in this world?"

Leng Nanxian had already recruited the horse, and supported the reluctant An Sheng to jump on the horse's back, shaking his head solemnly: "No."

Yu Jingyun stopped talking for a while, the two had already beaten their horses and left, and couldn't help but get angry, and said angrily: "Leng Nanxian, the rabbit still doesn't eat the grass on the edge of the nest!"

Leng Nanxian smiled slightly and didn't look back: "But the rabbit eats the grass in the nest."

An Sheng blinked in surprise: "What kind of rabbit, Master?"

Leng Nanxian raised his eyebrows proudly and said: "Yu Shizi just wants to raise a rabbit."

"Oh."

An Sheng nodded, pretending to understand.

An Sheng returned to Xia Mansion, got off the carriage, and his aunt Qian graciously greeted him, looking at the carriage behind An Sheng and "tsk tsk" praise.

"My niece is really prosperous, and the round-trip transportation is such a luxurious carriage. It is really impressive for three days."

When Mrs Qian came to the door, she smiled so diligently, without asking, An Sheng knew exactly why she came to the door.

"It's such a coincidence that I met my aunt here." An Sheng smiled slightly.

"Unfortunately, unfortunately, my aunt made a special trip to wait for you here. She has been waiting for half an afternoon." Qian shi squinted and smiled with a wrinkled face, layer upon layer.

"Oh? Is that so? Why didn't the concierge invite you in for tea? He even asked you to wait here." An Sheng complained.

"It's okay," Qian Shi hurriedly waved his hand: "You know, my aunt hated your mother because of your sister's affairs, how can she show me a good face? I have this self-knowledge, so ah, I didn't enter Mansion, I'm waiting for you right here."

This is Ming Ming asking for credit in front of An Sheng, An Sheng smiled and said, "It's true, it was a very strict matter, and my mother didn't know where she heard the rumors, and blamed this on my aunt. Not to mention, An Sheng will be punished, and he will be whipped for a long time."

"Ah? Is that so?" Mr. Qian pretended to be confused: "How can Mr. Xue have such a vicious heart that he can do it to you?"

An Sheng sighed lightly: "Thanks to the misunderstanding later, it turns out that the Meng family's marriage to my sister was not due to my aunt's credit, it was just a slap in the face, and my mother didn't blame me. Otherwise, I would have been harmed by those who talk nonsense. After death, my father still has to get to the bottom of it and find a way to understand it."

"Hehe, is that so?" Qian shyly smiled: "Fortunately, my niece is very lucky."

An Sheng walked straight to the mansion: "What is your aunt doing here to find An Sheng?"

Qian Shi Dian Er Dian Er Dian Er closely followed behind An Sheng: "It's true that there is such a little trouble, please do me a favor."

An Sheng turned around suddenly: "What's the matter? Aunt said bluntly."

Qian shi looked around: "Is it convenient to speak here?"

"Then go back to the yard and talk to me."

"Alas!" Qian nodded and followed An Sheng back to the yard.

When the tea was served, the two took their seats, and An Sheng asked straight to the point, "Is your aunt here for my cousin's marriage?"

Qian slapped her thigh: "My niece is so refreshing, and my aunt won't hide it. No, someone from your cousin told me a good girl this year. The family is in the powder business. You and your uncle are also happy, so you start to discuss their marriage.

But who knows, this woman's family is not easy to talk to, come over to see, dislike the yard we live in is too narrow, afraid that her girl will be wronged when she gets married, so she has to buy another house to hold a wedding for them.

In fact, people's demands are not excessive. You see, my uncle and I, as well as your grandmother, cousin, and cousin, such a large family are all crowded in the courtyard behind the silk and satin village, and two houses have been allocated as warehouses. , After your cousin got married, there must be many inconveniences.

However, when we purchased another house, there was no such suitable land for a while. Besides, we didn’t have that much savings on hand, so we thought about demolishing the old house and rebuilding it, which would also save a lot of silver. Brother has a wedding. "

An Sheng nodded: "This method is good, our old house is a good location facing the street, and it is easy to get in and out."

"That's not it." Qian Shi smiled "hehe": "Unfortunately, we have to sum up, and we don't have enough money."

"How far is it?" An Sheng asked directly.

When Qian Shi heard An Sheng's tone, he put it lightly, he was confident, and he was extraordinarily forthright, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

"Your uncle bought a batch of bricks, tiles and stones at a low price from a friend he knew well. But when we inquired about it, it turned out to be a lot of expense to rip off the old house, let alone hire masons, carpenters, these craftsmen. Craftsmen have higher wages, and have to eat, drink, and entertain three times a day, your uncle is in trouble.”

An Sheng raised his eyebrows indifferently: "That is to say, everything is ready now, that is, is it almost a craftsman's labor cost?"

Qian shi nodded hastily: "Exactly, this is also a big head. Your uncle has trouble sleeping and eating, and his hair is half white! I just said to see if An Ran and you have money on hand, can you help?"

An Sheng picked up the tea cup in his hand, took the opportunity to drink tea with his head down, and thought for a while, and he already had a scruple in his heart.

"You must have been to your sister's place?"

Qian Shi nodded: "Go, I haven't seen your sister's face yet, she was instructed to come to you by the girl Qingju. From this look, my niece is obviously really developed, a little silver tael for you It's just a drop in the bucket."

"It's a trivial matter." An Sheng said lightly.

Qian Shi was overjoyed immediately, and even his hands began to itch: "Isn't a penny a hero, your uncle and I get up early in the morning and go to the dark, and we work so hard every day, but it's just enough to support the family and eat and drink for the whole family. A little savings comes from the gap between our teeth. saved.

This is a major event in this lifetime, so you can't let outsiders see a joke, you have to do it well, right? It is helpless to ask your sisters to come here. Who made us real relatives, don't you think? "

An Sheng nodded in agreement: "If there is someone I can help, of course I will spare no effort. It's not as good as this. I know someone who has a lot of connections in the capital. He will definitely be able to introduce some good masters. You do it, no matter how much work or hours you need, the wages will be counted to me. What does your aunt think?"

As soon as Qian Shi heard this, he thought about it in his heart, how could he take advantage of it a little more. She is the master of yanguo plucking, and she naturally has a set of small nines for hiring workers.

However, if An Sheng had contracted labor, she would be able to push all the household chores to the workers, and she could use the dismantled purlins, masonry and other waste to build a few more partial rooms.

In this way, there is a warehouse for storing goods, and then the current warehouse and housing are repainted and repainted, which will not only add two more houses, but also look brand new.

Thinking of this, he was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to nod his head again and again: "Of course we can't get what we want, but, how can we be embarrassed? After all, these craftsmen are all veterans, and often in the end, the wages will exceed the original budget.

Pay wages according to how much you live, hurry up and work slowly, and work hard; pay wages according to time, and you are afraid of delay. I definitely couldn't bear it in my heart, and I wasn't even anxious to rush him that day. "
