Li Yuan was a little helpless, so she took Caiwei to a place where there was no one and was protected from the wind and sat down.
When the little girl forgot about her awkwardness and looked at her with a confused expression, she asked, "Caiwei doesn't like Uncle Xie?"
"No! Uncle Xie is a very nice person and treats my sister and I very well. Besides, Uncle Xie doesn't have grandparents or anything like that at home, so Mom can take charge of the family."
"Then if this is the case, you think it's good, so why is it awkward? You will make my mother think that you don't like Uncle Xie, so she should not marry him."
Caiwei was so frightened that she shook her head repeatedly: "No, Mom, I don't mean that. I know Uncle Xie is good, and everyone says that Uncle Xie is good. Moreover, he is also good to you, Mom. So, if you must marry, then marry Uncle Xie is the best. But Mom, I feel uncomfortable seeing you dressed like that."
Li Yuan held her face to face on his lap, wrapped her in his arms with both hands, looked down into her eyes and asked, "Why do you feel uncomfortable?"
"I just feel that my mother will be more than just my mother!"
Li Yuan reached out and knocked on her forehead in annoyance, "I am more than just your mother! I am also your uncle's sister, your eldest grandma and your third grandma's niece, and the granddaughter of your great-grandfather and grandma. Now I am still your Grandma Han. Of course, in a few days, she will have to add another identity, she is your Uncle Xie’s daughter-in-law."
"Caiwei, you have to know that no matter how my mother's identity changes, she is still your and Qingsha's mother from the beginning to the end. You are born to your mother. No matter how hard or tired your mother is, she will always carry you with you wherever you go. I love you. So, don’t feel confused and awkward for those of you. Is it possible? You just need to know that by marrying Uncle Xie, you will have someone who loves your mother and you. He is not trying to steal your mother, but more Someone who loves you."
When Caiwei heard that sentence, no matter how her identity changed, she would always be her mother, and she would still take care of her, and so on, the awkwardness in her heart instantly calmed down.
"Mom, I know! In fact, I have always been very optimistic about Uncle Xie. I found him for my mother. In the past, when you and Uncle Xie were not good, mother, I praised you in front of him and kept praising you, so Uncle Xie Only then will I fall in love with you.”
Yes, Caiwei still believes that her mother and Xie Yanzhi can be together because of her contribution.
If she hadn't been very discerning and worked hard to praise her mother in front of Xie Yanzhi, she wouldn't be what she is now.
Li Yuan heard the words and replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, it's all because of you that my mother can be with your Uncle Xie. Caiwei, you are our little matchmaker. So, little matchmaker, since you are the one holding the string, why don't you Is it possible to be happy? After all, like you said, you are the one you found for your mother!"
Even if Caiwei is precocious, she is still young.
After being praised by her mother, she suddenly felt that she was so powerful that she would even find a husband for her mother.
So she was the one who arrived, so why is she awkward?
She thanked her uncle for being such a good person, with prestige, fame, money, and being so kind to them, and he didn't hit his wife or children.
She should be happy!
Thinking like this, the awkwardness in Caiwei's heart completely disappeared.
Maybe it was because I was used to it when I was young and I was afraid of poverty.
She liked money, so she asked Li Yuan: "Mom, people have to collect things when they are matchmakers. Do I have any?"
"Yes, what do you want?"
"Well, Grandma Zhao from Shuiyun Village always charges a few eggs and a few cents for running errands every time she proposes marriage to someone. Well, since I'm younger than Grandma Zhao, I'll charge half as much. But I, Uncle Xie, If it’s so good, the price will definitely double. How about you think this works, mother, and you can give me ten cents, which will be regarded as two days’ wages.”
Li Yuan didn't know where the conclusion of ten cents for two days' wages came from. When she heard what she said, she asked: "Then you have to take the money for running errands from both sides? Both the woman's family and the man's family want it?"
"Yes! I heard that Grandma Zhao takes both sides. Both the woman and the man need her help to negotiate a deal. Therefore, my uncle Xie's money is all with you, so you should give me twenty coins."
"good!"
Li Yuan said, after putting her down, she opened the money bag and counted twenty copper coins from it.
"Take it with your purse!"
Caiwei immediately untied her purse happily and said, "Mom, I secretly took a look just now. The red envelope my grandma Han gave me was one tael of silver. What the master gave me was a silver note that was the same as the one given by Uncle Meng and the others in the morning. Also, Yes, Grandpa Su and Grandma Su also gave them banknotes, saying that the first year Shasha and I came to their house, we were still their granddaughters, so we had to give more. Grandma Han asked me to accept it, so the money was all there. this."
Caiwei said, taking out a few red envelopes from her arms: "Mom, look!"
Li Yuan opened them one by one, and was shocked when she saw that the two red envelopes contained twenty-tael silver notes.
In the memory of the original owner, for the children of Lijia'ao, the New Year's money given by their elders during the Chinese New Year was only one or two pennies.
When the original owner's father and mother were alive, they would give more, but it would still be five or six cents, never more than ten cents.
She thought that one tael from the people of the Su family was good, but she never thought that it would be dozens of taels at a time.
Including Su Mingshan's, one child is a full fifty taels.
Then didn't her two children receive a hundred taels in one fell swoop?
What is the concept of one hundred taels? Normally, a pound of white flour costs five cents, and one tael of silver can buy two hundred pounds. This one hundred taels is equivalent to tens of thousands of catties.
No, I can't accept this money, it's too much. It's okay if it costs one tael. Even if it's one tael, she can accept it.
"Caiwei, this money is too much, we can't accept it. The money you and your sister have together can buy a lot of rice, so much that you won't be able to eat it all in your life. Later, mother will return the money to you." Can I give it to your master?"
Caiwei was a little stunned when she heard that she couldn't finish it in her lifetime, and then she hurriedly pushed the two red seals back.
"Mom, then I will keep what the master gave me, but not the other two. As for the sister, she is not the master's apprentice yet, so there is no need to give so much and ask the master to exchange it for broken silver. If the sister is short of money , I have it. Also, I will not accept so much money from Master in vain, and I will honor her well in the future."
"Okay, you just have to know what you have in mind. When I see your master later, mother will tell you. This money is too much, we can't take it."
Caiwei rolled her eyes and asked again: "Mom, I, Uncle Meng, are officials and are living with us now. Could it be that my Grandpa Su and Grandma Su want to get closer to Uncle Meng through us?" Is it because of their relationship that they are given so much?"
Li Yuan didn't expect that she could think of this, so she said, "These are not what you should think about. Let's go back and give this money to your master."
