Dressed as a farmer's little blessing, the road to escape the deserted

Chapter 556 Gratitude and guilt from Tao Hongying

"What? Why didn't you say it earlier!" Mrs. Li was in a hurry, and said angrily, "This is a lifesaver! If I knew it earlier, I should treat him well! Is his family close, and when will we get married?"

Li Laosi was not angry when he was scolded, and replied with a smile: "His family is a hundred miles away, and we will get married in three days. We will leave after lunch. It should be just right to arrive at his house."

"In such a rush?" Mrs. Li immediately began to think, "I still have a piece of red brocade at home, so I can't take it now. I'm afraid the woman has already sewn her wedding dress. Let's prepare a few more pieces of good fabric, as well as jewelry. , it is best to send a complete set..."

While talking, she called He Nanny to find her granddaughter, because it was too late to go shopping in the city at this time.

Most of the rewards from the empress before were distributed to the villagers, and some were kept at home. Wenjuan came over in the past few days, and all the fine cotton cloths were cut out to make clothes and bedding for the children.

Now in the warehouse, there are only a few pieces of precious brocade and the like, which are not suitable for ordinary people like the Wei family to wear.

However, there are still a lot of coarse cloth, and they cannot be used as congratulatory gifts.

So, I can only ask the fat girl for help.

Jiayin is cooking porridge in the kitchen, fresh shrimp porridge.

She thought that when her adoptive father came back from the city, he could eat it, nutritious and delicious.

Suddenly, Jiayin came into the house when she heard her grandma calling her. As a result, grandma gave her 100 taels of silver. She was startled and asked, "Grandma, why are you giving me the silver?"

"Of course I'm shopping with you!" Mrs. Li dragged her granddaughter and told the matter angrily and distressed, and finally scolded her son, "You said your father, you just said such a big event. If it wasn't for the wedding of the Wei family, He still wants to keep it a secret that he needs to pay a courtesy call.

"It's too late to buy things at home. Here's 100 taels for you. Hurry up and help grandma find some good materials in your box, and get another set of jewelry."

Only then did Jiayin know what had happened. Where could she collect grandma's money, she resolutely pushed it back, then ran to the backyard, and quickly brought the things over.

Jiayin prepared four bolts of fine cotton cloth, all in bright colors, Qixia, Light Crimson, Willow Green and Silver Red, which are very suitable for making dresses for newlyweds.

Finally, there is a set of silver face jewelry, hairpins, bracelets, earrings, etc., everything is available.

This is the reward from the queen last time, and it will add luster to the marriage even more if it is given to the bride of the Wei family at this time.

It's not that Jiayin is stingy and refuses to give the Wei family's new daughter-in-law jewelry of pure gold or precious stones.

After all, in her heart, her father's life was worth all the treasures in the world.

But the Wei family is an ordinary farming family, and Wei Erniu is not at home often, and the gold and precious stones are too eye-catching and easy to attract people to covet.

This set of silver jewelry is exquisite and unique, and the bride will definitely like it...

Mrs. Li, Tao Hongying and others saw it and were very satisfied.

Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter, feeling happy and emotional, "Grandma will go to the city in a few days, and take you to the Xiuzhuang Silver Building, and I will make up for you. It just so happens that the storehouse at home needs to add something, so as not to be anxious when something happens." panic.

"Grandma's Fu Niuer, she has really grown up, and she is so considerate in doing things. In the entire Tianwu, there is probably no brat who can match my granddaughter!"

Tao Hongying was afraid of her daughter's proud tail, so she hurriedly answered, "Mother, it will be many years later, it's too early to say that, let's add some more things, only fabrics and jewelry, it's still too thin."

"Okay, the fabrics are all fine cloth, although affordable but not decent enough, let's add two pieces of satin! In addition, I will give you another 50 taels of silver for pressing the box!" Mrs. Li made up her mind.

Tao Hongying went to make arrangements immediately.

The satin was taken from the storehouse at home, but for the silver, she insisted on using her wages for cooking in the private kitchen.

As long as she thinks that her husband was almost hurt, she will be extremely grateful to Wei Erniu, and even vaguely feel a little more guilty towards Xiao Cui'er who has never met.

This is good luck, Wei Erniu rescued Li Laosi and he was safe.

If Wei Erniu gets injured or dies, Xiao Cui's life will be over...

Mrs. Li understood her daughter-in-law's thoughts, so she didn't fight for it.

Not only that, Tao Hongying led her daughter into the kitchen, and for the first time asked her to "support" some good dishes and ingredients, and she planned to cook a few tables of food and wine to thank her benefactors.

Jiayin was also in the same mood. She didn't even dare to think about what would happen to the family after her father had an accident.

As a result, all kinds of fresh vegetables, baskets of eggs, and previously stored seafood were all moved out of the space, and even the rabbit family began to "lighten the burden" in large quantities.

Nanny He, Shui Ling, Shui Yun, and Dong Mei all came to help, but they were still a bit stretched.

Fortunately, Madam Hui, Sister-in-Law Liu, and a few women in the village thought that the Li family had so many soldiers to eat, so they came to visit, so they directly joined the army of cooks.

Wei Erniu and his brothers came down from the mountain, each of them gritted their teeth, and then found that the lunch was so rich, they really regretted it.

Seeing them grimacing and baring their teeth, Mrs. Li hurried to the storeroom to bring out a bunch of wild walnuts.

This was harvested in autumn last year. The family had a better life, and the children didn't care about these little snacks, so it's left until now.

At this moment, Mrs. Li took a small hammer and stood next to the millstone, smashing the wild walnuts one by one with the hammer, and the soldiers grabbed them and picked the walnut kernels to chew.

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "Chew slowly, chew carefully, don't worry, your teeth will get stronger soon, next time you see sour fruit, don't be greedy!"

The soldiers all blushed with laughter, and scratched the backs of their heads one after another, one by one more naive.

They have been away from home for many years, and they are no longer naughty boys, but they just saw the fruit on the mountain, and they still couldn't hold back. After eating a few in a row, their teeth went on strike...

When the last dish was served on the table, the soldiers were also delighted to find that their teeth felt, so they flocked to the table, ready to feast.

At this time, Lord Hou and Li Yong finally came back.

Everyone was so happy that they went out together to welcome them.

The villagers also rushed over after hearing the news, and greeted them warmly.

"Master Hou is back, Master Hou is back!"

"How long can Hou Ye stay at home this time, but take a good rest for a few months, the battle has been hard!"

Hou Ye smiled and nodded with the villagers, exchanged a few words of greeting, and then turned to enter the yard, only to find Jiayin hiding behind Mrs. Li, leaving only a small white and fat face.

He bent down and stretched out his hand, and shouted, "What's wrong with Fu Niuer, don't you recognize your adoptive father?"

Jiayin hesitated for a moment, then finally ran over, took the foster father's hand, and shouted with a smile, "Father foster!"

Hou Ye was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

Jiayin quickly covered her mouth with her hand, but the others could see clearly and couldn't help laughing.

Jiayin was shy, turned her head and was about to run, but was picked up by Lord Hou and put it on her shoulder, "Don't be afraid, Fu Niuer is a big child, losing teeth is a good thing!"

Hou Ye comforted the fat girl, but he couldn't suppress the raised face.

The villagers went back after a few gossips, but the village head, Escort Liu, Niang Hui, Aunt Wu and Sister-in-law Liu all stayed for dinner.

The other helping women refused to stay, so Tao Hongying served them a bowl of food.

After all, I missed people making lunch, so I went home to cook some porridge and warm up some steamed buns. This bowl of food was enough for the family to eat.

Soon, everyone was seated lively.

Lord Hou talked with Mrs. Li for a while, and then he released the good news and followed Mrs. Li to the house for dinner.

The sun was setting to the west, and there was a large area of ​​shade in front of the west wing, where there were exactly three tables, and it was the men's world.

The drinks prepared by the Li family were good, but no one really drank too much today.

Li Yong missed his wife and children, so he took the children after eating and drinking.

Li Laosi and Wei Erniu are going to go to Wei's house soon, so they don't dare to drink too much.

Lord Hou didn't drink too much on weekdays.

Only the village chief and Biaotou Liu, accompanied by Laoer Li, drank a few bowls.

Today is the court meeting, and Li Lao Er was surprised when he saw Lord Hou in the court hall.

When the morning meeting was over, he came back with him...
