"Thank you ma'am."
Xiao Fuyuan was in a good mood after receiving the gold, and her expression became a little sweeter, making her look more agile and handsome.
"Call me aunt from now on."
Mrs. Xu smiled happily, but she felt a little regretful. The Xu family was so doting on girls, so they must be good to their daughter-in-law. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have mentioned anything about marrying into the family, and if I had just married my daughter in, there wouldn't have been so many troubles.
Tian Maimiao has finally found a good family.
Just as she was thinking about Tian Maimiao, Mrs. Xu looked up and saw Tian Maimiao standing aside.
"Mai Miao, you are here too." Mrs. Xu took Tian Mai Miao's hand and glanced at Xu Jiaojiao, "Why didn't you say anything when you saw Mai Miao, you kid?"
Tian Maimiao smiled and said, "Hello, aunt."
Mrs. Xu touched Tian Maimiao's hand with a grateful look on her face: "Good boy, thank you."
He choked up as he spoke.
Tian Maimiao comforted her softly: "Auntie, I know everything. You don't have to be polite."
Bai Sanzhuang came up with the idea of punishing Li Jin, and Tian Maimiao found the fish seller Widow Liu.
Tian Maimiao settled in Nanguan Town with her mother when she was young. She received help from Mrs. Xu. It was thanks to Mrs. Xu that her mother opened the pork shop. Her shop is opposite Shopkeeper Xu's house. It has been safe and sound for many years without being harassed by gangsters. She clearly knows that part of the reason is that everyone is afraid of Shopkeeper Xu.
This was one of the reasons why she helped Xu Jiaojiao.
Mrs. Xu wiped her eyes and said with a smile: "I have been at Grandma Jiaojiao's house some time ago. When I came back, I heard that you were engaged. I haven't given you an engagement gift yet. I originally wanted to give you a big gift on the day of your wedding, so I chose The sky is not as good as the sun, I have brought it all today."
As he spoke, Chaoda Maimiao put two large gold bracelets on his hands.
The field wheat seedlings were so hard that they didn't even come off.
"Just take the wheat seedlings. There are none next to my house, but there is a lot of gold." Xu Jiaojiao said from the side.
Tian Maimiao: "..."
Xiao Fuyuan smacked her lips inwardly, the Xu family is so rich, they always give away gold.
As a business woman, Mrs. Xu has a straightforward personality, while Mrs. Zhen has a gentle temperament. It is rare that the two of them are so compatible.
Mrs. Xu held Mrs. Zhen’s hand and kept talking.
"...My daughter has been spoiled rotten by me. Alas, I feel worried because I don't know what kind of family she will find in the future." Mrs. Xu told the truth to Mrs. Zhen.
"She is still young, and she will understand after going through things." Zhen said.
When Xu Jiaojiao heard Mrs. Xu mention this, she felt ashamed, so she came to the stern of the boat and stood in a deserted place blowing the wind and looking at the lamp.
"Sister, aren't you happy?" Xiao Fuyuan saw Xu Jiaojiao alone and ran over holding a lotus lantern.
Xu Jiaojiao saw that Xiao Fu was soft and cute, so she couldn't help but rub her head and said, "Little sister, sister is a little unhappy."
"Sister, this lotus lantern is for you." Xiao Fuyuan handed the lantern to Xu Jiaojiao and said, "It's no big deal, just be happy."
Xu Jiaojiao smiled.
At this time, a ship passed by, and when she saw Xu Jiaojiao standing on the bow, she shouted loudly.
"Isn't that Xu Jiaojiao? If I were her, I wouldn't have the face to come out."
"It's just that she's embarrassed, and it's causing her parents to lose their status, and she has the nerve to come out."
Several girls who were usually at odds with Xu Jiaojiao were chattering loudly, deliberately so that Xu Jiaojiao could hear them clearly.
"Hey, Xu Jiaojiao, your Li Jin wants to take in a widow, what will you do if you come in?" The second daughter of Qian's shop, who competes with Xu's shop, shouted to Xu Jiaojiao.
Xu Jiaojiao would definitely retort if she wanted to leave it alone.
But now, she didn't want her affairs to become more troublesome, and besides, she had indeed done something embarrassing, so she could only respond in silence while holding back her anger with red circles under her eyes.
"Sisters, they only know how to add insult to injury." Xiao Fukuoka said to the girls on the cruise ship.
"That's right, children understand the truth, but you don't understand it." Suddenly a voice came from the side, and then scolded, "They say that you should keep a line in life, and your family is also a businessman in the town. Look up and disappear. Why bother to add insult to injury to others when you look down upon them?"
The girls on the cruise ship had slanderous expressions on their faces and ordered the cruise ship to leave.
"Hey, Brother Wu, why are you here?" Xiao Fuyuan asked Wu Langzhong.
"I was sleeping here just now." Wu Langzhong was lying on the bamboo bed next to him.
That corner was extremely dark, and neither Xiao Fuyuan nor Xu Jiaojiao saw anyone lying in it.
Xu Jiaojiao was very embarrassed. She lowered her head and said to Mr. Wu, "Thank you for speaking up."
Wu Langzhong shook his head gently and said: "Girl, there is no need to take it to heart, and there is no need to let these rumors ruin your mood."
After Wu Langzhong finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Xu Jiaojiao looked at Wu Langzhong's back and asked Xiao Fuyuan: "Do you know him?"
Xiao Fuyuan smiled and said: "Yes, he is Wu Langzhong in our village. His medical skills are very good. He cured my nephew's leg."
Xu Jiaojiao remained silent.
"Sister Xu, you have to listen to Brother Wu and don't let their words affect your mood."
Xu Jiaojiao faced the evening breeze, held Xiao Fuyuan's hand, nodded vigorously and said: "I listen to my sister."
The moon was high in the sky, and the boats floating on the river gradually docked.
A Zhen's big ship also docked on the shore.
"Aunt Bai, Sister Zhen, if you don't mind, go to my house to rest." Mrs. Xu strongly invited Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Zhen to take the Bai family to the Xu family to rest.
"Don't bother me anymore. My family, Sanzhuang, bought a house a few days ago and we will live there tonight." Zhen declined politely.
"That's great. It's a good thing to buy a new house," Mrs. Xu said with a smile, "I'll ask the servant to give you some daily necessities later."
Zhen agreed with a smile.
Unexpectedly, the house Sanzhuang bought was right next to the house in Azhen Town.
When the Bai family came to the door of the house, A Zhen's carriage happened to arrive.
"What a coincidence. We were neighbors in the village and we are still neighbors here." He Shun smiled.
"It's a coincidence." Baiban said cheerfully.
It's nice to be next to A Zhen's house, I feel safe.
"Everything in our house is ready-made. If you need anything, just come and get it." He Shun said enthusiastically.
"Okay." Bai Banban agreed readily.
The house has three courtyards, even larger than the one in Yangfeng County.
The village chief's wife came in and smacked her lips: "Your family is really rich and can afford such a big house."
Mrs. Bai said modestly: "Sanzhuang earned some money and bought it."
But we can't tell anyone about ginseng.
"Is this also for Xiao Fuyuan?" asked the village chief's wife.
"Of course it's for my sister-in-law." Eugene Gui rushed to answer.
After a while, the Xu family sent Xiaomei and two maids to bring toiletries and bedding, and also specially prepared a bag of things for Xiao Fuyuan.
"This is what my lady prepared for Xiao Yuanbao. It contains osmanthus oil for combing your hair, balsam for face, soap for face, and green salt for teeth..." Xiaomei handed it to Zhen with a smile.
"Thank you, Sister Xu." Xiao Fuyuan smiled and thanked her.
Apart from her temper, Xu Jiaojiao is actually quite a nice person.
After Xiaomei left, A Zhen next door also sent someone to deliver bedding.
After enjoying the lotuses all day, eating Li Jin's melons, and looking at the lanterns all night, I was really exhausted.
After everyone briefly freshened up, they fell asleep.
