Mianmian turned around and said, "Mother-in-law, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Lu slowly took out a pair of jade rings from her arms, "This was left to me by my parents. They have been in love all their lives, and they have been sweethearts since childhood."
"They say that just by wearing this ring, you can be like them."
"When I got married, my parents didn't give it to me. Now that they have passed away, I don't have any use for it. Now I will give it to you."
The pair of jade rings are pure and bright in color, green and delicate, and they are not vulgar at first glance.
She took the jade ring and was very happy and thanked her: "Thank you, mother-in-law."
Mrs. Lu showed a happy smile and said slowly: "My sons are of no use. I was still thinking that this ring would be buried in the ground with me. Now that they can have a home, I can feel at ease."
Mianmian couldn't help but look at the jade ring again, "Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely keep it." ?.?????.???
Mrs. Lu smiled and nodded.
Mianmian took the pair of jade rings and followed Doctor Xu to leave the thatched house, get on the carriage, and prepare to go home.
On the carriage, Doctor Xu asked, "Mianmian, do you really believe in this jade ring?"
Mianmian carefully opened her hand, looked at the thing in her hand, and nodded heavily, "Of course I believe it, this is indeed a good thing."
Doctor Xu smiled and shook his head, "Actually, I see that Qing'er cares so much about you, and I will definitely not let you down in the future."
Mianmian slowly held the jade ring in her hand, "That's natural."
After the two returned home, Mianmian brought the jade ring to Du Wanchun.
She smiled and said, "It seems that my mother-in-law really likes you."
Mianmian put the jade ring away, "When Qing'er comes back, I'll give him a try."
Du Wanchun leaned into her ear and whispered, "Just keep this as a token on your wedding day."
Mianmian's cheeks turned red, "No rush, no rush, it'll be in a few years."
Du Wanchun smiled, "Of course mother is not in a hurry, but there is someone else who is."
Mianmian knew who it was as soon as she guessed it, and her cheeks turned even redder.
Du Wanchun continued: "The embroiderer your second brother found in Ruan County is really good at her craftsmanship. I asked her to embroider a wedding dress for you. The embroidery work will take at least half a year. No matter how urgent Xiao Qing'er is, she has to do it." Wait half a year.”
When Mianmian heard this, she seemed to smell something suddenly, "Second brother went to Ruan County again?"
Du Wanchun raised his eyes and said, "Yes, he went there often before?"
Mianmian smiled and said, "I really love it, but I don't know what is attractive about it."
Du Wanchun's eyes narrowed, "That may have to wait for your second brother to say it himself."
The mother and daughter chatted for another hour or two.
A month later, Mianmian heard about Mrs. Lu from Doctor Xu.
Mrs. Lu followed Mianmian's words and followed her five sons.
Unexpectedly, the five sons suddenly changed drastically. In the past, they ignored her, but now they are eager to take the old lady back to fulfill their filial piety.
Later, the five sons fought over each other, and Mrs. Lu decided to take turns living in one son's house every ten days.
On this first day, I stayed at my eldest son’s house.
Just yesterday, Mrs. Lu just went to bed.
The eldest son of the Lu family wanted to search for the banknotes from Mrs. Lu. Unexpectedly, the banknotes were not found and he discovered that his mother-in-law had stolen the money.
This was outrageous. The eldest son of the Lu family immediately abandoned her, and within a few days he brought another woman into the house.
This woman is an orphan from the village. She is timid and looks bad, but she is still filial.
The sons in the family also became harmonious. Although they were all doing it for money, Mrs. Lu's life gradually improved.
Perhaps it would take a hundred years for her sons to discover that the so-called five hundred taels were actually only the fifty taels.
Mianmian was very satisfied when she learned about this.
She looked at the jade ring in her hand and gradually wanted to settle down.
Qing'er followed Zhou Ruiyuan to Zhuangzi, and when she came back together, she happened to see Du Wanchun.
Du Wanchun mentioned the jade ring to Qing'er intentionally or unintentionally.
Qing'er understood the idea and wrote a letter to her family overnight, asking them to prepare the betrothal gift.
