"Mom, are you tired from walking? Let's go sit in the pavilion over there for a while."
Yang Ruoqing helped Sun walk across the cobblestone path, then walked up three or five white stone steps and entered a small and exquisite octagonal pavilion.
There is a bench made of mahogany in the pavilion, which is cared for every day and is spotless to the touch of a finger.
After sitting down, Mrs. Sun looked around. The beautiful scenery was reflected in her eyes. Everywhere she looked was stunning.
"Qing'er, this little garden is really nice. Didn't you spend a lot of money to take care of it?" she asked again.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "It's not bad, just changing the water and fish on the small bridge over there costs a lot of money every day. However, it is precisely because of this that the quality of the restaurant is further raised, so that people who stay here can Customers have a comfortable experience when they come for a walk.”
Once you have a comfortable experience, you will feel that the money spent on this accommodation is worth it. When you tell your friends later, you can pretend to be cool, right?
People like to show off. This is true. Don’t deny it.
This pavilion is out of the wind, so you can sit there for a while without getting cold.
However, Yang Ruoqing still stood thoughtfully on Sun's left side and tried her best to block her with her body.
Mrs. Sun didn't notice, she was immersed in the intoxicating night.
"Mom, you also saw He Lian'er today. What do you think of this girl?"
Yang Ruoqing's sudden question drew Sun's attention back. Sun didn't doubt that he was there, and carefully recalled the girl's voice, appearance, and smile. She nodded and said, "She is a really good girl. She is polite." , filial to the elders, hard-working and capable, although she speaks softly, but she is not the kind of delicate girl who can endure hardships and stand hard work..."
"She looks pretty good, with pretty features, and a decent build. She's petite and exquisite, but her body is too thin. It's really heartbreaking to look at..."
Speaking of being skinny and thin, Mrs. Sun habitually looked at Yang Ruoqing.
Recently, my daughter didn't know what was going on, and she was noisy about not eating much at night. Take this night for example, Yang Ruoqing ate a boiled egg, plus a small piece of thin osmanthus white jade cake.
That little thing, even a little gap between teeth is not enough!
When Yang Ruoqing noticed that Mrs. Sun was sizing her up, she could guess what my mother was thinking about. She coughed lightly and quickly brought the topic back to the topic.
"Mom, Lian'er is begging me and my fifth uncle to find a job. Just a while ago, Xiao An arranged for her to be in a restaurant, and the girl was not idle either. She worked in the backyard kitchen every day, so I asked my fifth uncle to discuss it. After thinking about it, I plan to let her come over to work. She can make money on her own, and maybe she will feel more at ease, what do you think?"
"What? She wants to go out to do things? Didn't our Xiaoan find a place for them to live and give them so many things, enough for them to eat and drink, so why does she still want to go out to do things?" Sun couldn't understand this.
"Mom, didn't I just say that that girl must have been enjoying Xiao An's care in vain and felt uneasy, so she wanted to make some money through her own labor, which would give her more confidence."
Mrs. Sun suddenly realized: "She is really a strong girl. It's a pity that her life is so miserable and she has to do all those terrible things."
Otherwise, with the support of father and brother and the support of mother, the fifteen-year-old should be as good as a flower, but she has to support the family.
When it came to raising a family, Mrs. Sun couldn't help but look up and down at the girl in front of her.
My daughter came out of the Yang family when she was twelve years old. Alas...
"Mom, we are talking about He Lian'er, please don't keep looking at me!" Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but smile, and calibrated the topic again.
Mrs. Sun shook her head, "Mom, I can't help but feel sad when I think about it. Qing'er, that girl Lian'er comes to the restaurant to work. You ask your fifth uncle to say hello to the person in charge and take care of her. It'll be fine. Don't Too tired."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and blinked, "Don't worry, Mom, you don't need to say hello to me, Fifth Uncle has a sense of propriety."
"Mom, I saw Xiao An and Lian'er standing together today. It's quite right for the two of them to have discussions. What do you think?" Yang Ruoqing asked tentatively. This is why she came to the small garden tonight. 'Meat dish' for a walk.
Sun was stunned for a moment, but the smile on her face froze little by little.
This was really beyond Yang Ruoqing's expectation. She originally thought that Sun, who was anxious about the forced marriage, would become excited.
"It's true, I like that girl Lian'er quite a lot, but I never thought about this marriage, and your father wouldn't agree to it either!"
"ah?"
Yang Ruoqing opened her eyes wide, she was really surprised this time.
"Why?" she asked.
Logically speaking, parents cannot be the kind of people who despise poverty and love wealth. Otherwise, they would not have let Daan marry Xiaohua and Xiaoduo marry Xiang Shengnan.
With Da'an's conditions, he is talented and handsome, his brother-in-law is a general who protects the country, and he is the youngest number one scholar in Daqi so far. Not to mention marrying a noble girl from the capital, he is still in the prefecture of Changhuaizhou and Qing'an. In the eyes of the county and county officials, they are really willing to offer the best legitimate daughter to make this marriage happen.
If Da'an married the daughters of those families, he might be able to advance quickly in his career with the help of his father-in-law's family. However, Da'an and Xiaohua were childhood sweethearts, and Yang Huazhong and Sun had simple ideas. They only hoped that their children's marriage would be happy. As long as the family is happy.
Such parents could be like this in Da'an's marriage, but how could Xiao'an dislike the poor and love the rich?
"Mom, have you and my father discussed this matter?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Sun smiled bitterly, "We haven't discussed it, but after being married for decades, we know what the other person is thinking."
"Qing'er, let me tell you this, Lian'er is a girl whose appearance and character are hard to choose. I wish I could love her as my own daughter, but marriage is impossible."
"That's the reason. Since their family has no son, Lian'er is destined to stay at home and recruit a son-in-law to support the family. Xiao An, how can he become a son-in-law for others? This is absolutely impossible, let alone you If dad doesn’t agree, neither will the ancestors of Lao Yang’s family!”
Yang Ruoqing's eyes wandered, but she picked at the loophole in the words and asked: "Mom, so long as my father agrees, you won't object, right?"
Mrs. Sun was startled again, wondering what did I say?
"Mom, just answer me, do you think that as long as you convince my father, you will have no objection?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Mrs. Sun shook her head: "Although your father is usually easy-going and can easily discuss everything, he has his stubborn temper and he can't get back a dead end."
"Haha, don't worry, mother, everything in this world depends on people. Except for birth, old age, illness and death, there is nothing else that cannot be discussed."
Sun was so surprised that she stood up suddenly, "What, you're going to convince your father now?"
