Chapter 610 Firecrackers (Part 2)(1/2)
You are still young and it is too dangerous to set off firecrackers. Xu Lingyi has a gentle attitude and patiently explains to Brother Jin that setting off firecrackers is fun. If you really want to set off firecrackers, wait until your elder brother and others come back and let them and you
How about putting them together?
Brother Jin feels bad.
He wants to set off firecrackers now.
But when his father was talking to him, the old men sitting there listened with their ears open but acted very casually, just like when his mother was talking to his father, like the maids serving in the house. Every time
At this time, the mother would sit there silently with a smile on her face, waiting for the maid and mother-in-law to leave before talking to the father again.
Thinking of this, he imitated the eleventh mother and stood beside Xu Lingyi's hand with a smile.
Xu Lingyi was a little surprised why his son didn't leave. Seeing that he was well-behaved and sensible, he smiled and touched his son's head, sat him on his lap, and continued talking to Mr. Dou Ge: "I never care about things in the temple."
I understand very well. I am a man who marches and fights. In my opinion, it is better to let Marquis Jinghai take command. Although he is old, the Chu family has guarded Fujian for more than a hundred years and has many powerful generals under his command. Let him take the lead in fighting against the Japanese.
,It could not be better
Mr. Dou Ge was a little surprised.
The Xu family and the Ou family have been fighting openly and secretly for more than a day or two. At this time, Xu Lingyi recommended Jinghaihou to fight against the Japanese. I don’t know what it means. You know, if the Ou family really defeats the Japanese, the reputation of the Ou family will definitely rise to the next level.
Lou, by then the Xu family will be unable to compete with the Ou family. Perhaps Xu Lingyi is testing his attitude on this matter.
He smiled and lowered his head to take a sip of tea, but glanced at Mr. Liang Ge from the corner of his eye.
Mr. Liang Ge was looking at Xu Lingyi's youngest son with a smile: Children are all the same, they go wherever the excitement is. The same goes for our brother Tong. When my nephew got married, he saw others having fun and clamored to play.
He couldn't twist it anymore, so he had to let his cousin lead him to play. As a result, he threw the lit firecracker into the yard next door and almost set the woodshed on fire.
Brother Tong is Lanting’s eldest son.
Fortunately, Xu Lingyi, the master of our yard, laughed and said, "Brother Tong, let's bring him over to play someday. I plan to enlighten brother Jin next year, and let him play with him this year. After enlightenment, he will not be so loose."
.
Okay, Mr. Liang Ge said with a smile, I think these two children can play together. He also said, who is the Marquis going to ask to be your daughter's teacher? Should he ask someone from the Hanlin Academy to recommend one?
For the time being, he is studying with the teacher at home. Xu Lingyi smiled and said, "We will talk about it when we are older."
The two of them were talking about the child, and seemed to have suddenly become much closer.
Wang Li looked secretly amused.
Of these two people, one didn't want to discuss Fujian with Mr. Dou Ge, and the other ignored it after throwing away the earth mine. Mr. Dou Ge wanted to use this opportunity to persuade Mr. Liang Ge to agree to his recommendation of Gansu general soldiers to go to Fujian to suppress Japanese pirates.
I'm just afraid that if it doesn't work out, why don't I go forward and join in the fun?
While I was thinking about it, a young boy respectfully reported through the curtain: Lord Marquis, gentlemen, the dowry of the newlyweds has been delivered.
Of course they would not look at the dowry. The servants called out to tell Xu Lingyi that the banquet could be held in the evening.
Xu Lingyi asked Brother Jin softly: Do you want to see your sister-in-law's dowry?
I want to set off firecrackers. Jin Ke'er shook his head. The second sister-in-law's dowry is back, and the eldest brother should be back too. He jumped off Xu Lingyi's lap and looked at Xu Lingyi with bright eyes. Then can I set off the firecrackers?
Okay, it’s rare that your son has endured it for so long without saying a word. Xu Lingyi immediately agreed and asked Huang Xiaomao and Liu Erwu to take you to find your elder brother.
How did the eldest brother know that it was dad who asked me to set off the firecrackers? Brother Jin thought of the previous encounter and Manager Bai's words, and said, dad has to give me the right cards.
Xu Lingyi was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
Presumably Manager Bai used the right cards as an excuse to block Brother Jin's request to set off firecrackers.
However, this kid is in trouble. Once you suffer a loss, you will never be fooled again.
Although the right cards are useful, those who do things don't just recognize the right cards and not the person. If Brother Jin loses it, just make another one.
He smiled and asked someone to get the pair of cards.
Brother Jin went to the inner courtyard happily.
The dowries of the Xiang family were placed in the yard in front of the new house for people to view.
There are not many things, but the style is simple and they are all in complete sets. They look neat, beautiful and quite impressive.
Neither Xu Siqin nor Xu Sichen were at the new house.
A young man said: The eldest young master and the third young master went to the second young master’s old residence.
Brother Jin went to Xu Siyu to find someone.
Hong Wen was shocked when he saw it, and followed him cautiously, fearing that he would lose the pair of cards.
Brother Jin just wandered all the way to the outer courtyard with the pair of cards.
The expressions of the stewards who passed by changed slightly.
After knowing Brother Jin's intention, Xu Siqin, Xu Siyu and Xu Sijian couldn't help but look at each other.
Xu Sijian smiled and bent down to look at Brother Jin: You guys are too proud. You just set off firecrackers, but you asked for the fourth uncle's matching cards.
Brother Jin hurriedly argued: It was Manager Bai who said that. If you want to set off firecrackers, you need Daddy's right hand.
Everyone laughed.
Xu Siqin stood up and said goodbye: Then I will take brother Jin to set off firecrackers. You can rest first. Tomorrow is your big day. You have to be energetic.
Xu Siyu's face turned red, and he sent the three of them out with a slight shock.
When he turned back, he saw Wenzhu cleaning things for him.
These are all placed in the carved wooden box and cage, and will be taken directly to Le'an when the time comes. These are placed in the red lacquered and gold-painted iron box and cage, which are commonly used by the second young master. When the second young mistress enters the door, they are handed over to the second young master.
The young mistress’s personal maid explained everything clearly, for fear that the maids would make a mistake.
Xu Siyu, who was in a happy mood, couldn't help but joked: It looked like he couldn't wait to hand over everything.
In the past few years, Wenzhu and Mozhu have been running around with him, and their love has gradually grown. But Mozhu is three years younger than Wenzhu, and the two of them serve him together.
The Yellow River couldn't clean it, so I didn't dare to make any announcement. I just waited for him to get married, and he could make the decision to match the maids and servants around him, so that the two could get married.
The second young master Wen Zhu hurriedly stepped forward to salute, his face could not help but turn red.
Xu Siyu smiled and said: Don't worry. When the second young lady comes in, I will let her make the decision for you and Mo Zhu.
Although he shouldn't, Wenzhu couldn't help but smile cheerfully.
When Xu Siyu and Wen Zhu were talking, Hong Wen was standing in the main hall of the small courtyard next to Dianchun Hall.
The female family members who came to congratulate her were listening to a play in the Dianchun Hall in the afternoon. Now that the play had ended, they all went to the flower hall to sit down. But the eleventh mother was here to discuss the wedding tomorrow with the mothers in charge.
Qianliangpen, the red felt used by the bride when she gets off the sedan chair, and the red dates and peanuts for spreading on the bed are all ready.
Eleven Niang said yes.
The mother in charge said: The heaven and earth table, gods, incense and candles for the wedding room are all ready.
Eleven Niang hummed again.
The mother in charge said: The menu for the two-chao congratulation has been drawn up. Madam, would you like to take a look?
Let’s talk about this matter tomorrow, Shiyi Niangdao. Today we will only talk about tomorrow’s matters, and tomorrow we will only talk about the day after tomorrow.
The mother in charge responded with congratulations, and another mother's voice sounded: The ceremony table in the auditorium, the red satin wedding curtains, are all ready.
The voices reporting the matter came and went, never stopping.
It's better to wait until the fourth lady is free and tell her about those boys.
Hong Wen thought for a while, then quietly exited the hall and went to the new house.
Jin Keer and Brother Shen are setting off fireworks.
The two of them clapped their hands, not knowing how happy they were.
She stood behind Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian with a smile, and saw Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie walking in.
Where have you two been? Xu Sijian said with a smile, after welcoming the dowry and entering the door, you disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xu Sizhen said with a smile: I went to find my fifth brother. I had agreed to give my second sister-in-law’s dowry and called him to watch the fun when she came in. Who knew I couldn’t find it anywhere? It turned out that he went to Dianchun Hall to listen to the opera. We were looking for him.
It took me a long time to find it.
Xu Sijie was a little embarrassed: I originally promised my fourth brother, but who knew that I would forget about it after listening to it?
Xu Sijian laughed after hearing this and said: It's time for you to stop seeing the excitement.
The woman's dowry is welcomed into the door and laid out in the yard of the new house for the man's three aunts and uncles to see. When the auspicious time comes, the woman's bed-maker will help move it to the wedding room and display it, and then lock the door of the new house until tomorrow.
The bride's sedan chair enters and opens the door again.
It will be the same tomorrow. Xu Sizhen comforted Xu Sijie and asked Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian if they had eaten.
After eating, Xu Siqin smiled and said, "I ate at my second brother's place."
Everyone watched Brother Jin set off fireworks, joked and laughed for a while, and then dispersed as it was getting late.
Eleven Niang hadn't come back yet, so Hong Wen coaxed Brother Jin to rest. At the beginning of Haichu, Eleven Niang came back. Just after she kissed Brother Jin, Xu Lingyi came over.
He smelled faintly of alcohol.
This little guy is really unexpected. Xu Lingyi sat on the edge of the bed and helped his son tuck in the quilt.
