42. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes

Chapter 42 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes

After He Gong returned home, he continued to send gifts from various families. Fortunately, the He family and relatives lived close to each other, so there were inevitably several drinks. They were busy during the festival, and not only He Gong, but also Shen. In addition to preparing for the festive ceremony, there was also the daughter of the Li family who wanted to attend the ceremonial ceremony.

Last time, when the three rituals were washed, Mrs. He went there because Mrs. Shen was not at home. Because she hated He Xin's young age, she stopped going since Mrs. Shen was at home. He Zijin said, "Grandma, just go. I heard that the lunch banquet was so sumptuous."

"It's not that there is no food at home, so I won't go." said Mrs. He, "You go back and don't eat at his house."

"Why don't you eat when you go? I haven't seen Xiaokang for several days, so I just happened to see her." Li's daughter was not very healthy and named He Kang, which also means good luck.

He Zijin called the third girl to go with her. The third girl saw what Mr. He meant, but Mr. He didn't stop her and said, "Your cousin is not familiar yet, so take care of her more." He said to the third girl, "Zijin is young and not stable. There are many people in that family. Your aunt can't take care of her. Look at Zijin."

Both of them agreed.

Mrs. He looked at the third girl wearing a big red dress when He was young, and her slightly yellow hair was combed into two maids. She was still clean, but she was too simple and had no jewelry. Since she went out, she was her family. She was so simple that she was simply a shame for the old man. Mrs. He told Mrs. Yu, "Where did Ah Jing put two silver bracelets when he was a child?"

Madam Yu said, "The small cabinet at the head of my wife's bed is locked, and my aunt's jewelry was inside when she was a child."

"Go and get it."

For a moment, Madam Yu brought the jewelry box, and He Zijin ran over to see. In the box of red painted old elm, there were all small bracelets, hairpins, small silver hairpins, and small silver rings, all of which were used by children.

Mrs. He picked a pair of plain leek bracelets and handed them to the third girl, "Go out and wear this."

He Zijin smiled, "Grandma, give me a pair too."

Old Madam He picked a slightly faded light pink silk flower for the third girl to insert, and expressed a ruthless blow to He Zijin's greed for money. "There is nothing you don't want in this world." Pink coldly covered the jewelry box and locked it again, and told Madam Yu, "Put it in the cabinet and lock it."

He Zijin pouted, "If you don't give me, just don't give me. Grandma, if you don't give me, we still have a relationship, right? What a shame."

Mrs. He, "I have no friendship with you."

He ignored the miserly old lady He, who was born in a miser, and He Zijin grabbed the three girls' hands and said to He, "We're going." They were going with He Gong and Shen.

Mrs. He shouted behind her, "I asked your mother to bring A Lie." In such a crowded place, she was worried about her grandson going.

He Zijin, "I didn't hear it!" Didn't you have a relationship with her? Humph!

Old Madam He was angry, "You are deaf!"

"Deaf!"

Mrs. He:...

Madam Yu almost threw the jewelry box into laughter.

The cousins ​​and sisters went to Shen's house, and Shen's He Gong was there. Seeing that the third girl had silk flowers on her head and silver bracelets on her wrist, Shen took a pair of thin silver earrings from her makeup box and put them on her. She said to the third girl, "It's the first time you have been to the Xin brother's house. Most of them are from our family. Don't be afraid. I will remind you when I recognize you this time, and it's better to say hello if you see me in the future."

The third girl touched her ears, her face turned slightly red, and she nodded, "I remember, thank you aunt."

He Zijin said, "Grandmother said, please carry A Lie over, grandmother looks at him."

Shen said to her husband, "Okay, brother Xin knows many people. Last time Xi Saner heard that it was very lively. This year's banquet must be even more lively. Don't take A Lie, let Cui'er stay at home to help her mother take A Lie."

He Gong has no objection.

The family went to He's place again. He's glaring at He Zijin and told his son, "Eat less alcohol. You have always had social engagements these days. Eating too much alcohol is not good for your health. You have nothing to do to come back soon."

"Don't worry, we'll go back and don't eat too much." He Gong reminded his mother, "At noon, my mother is alone at home, so she must not let the kitchen cook a few good dishes, and the nanny will accompany her to have a meal." The next sentence was told to nanny Yu.

Old Madam He curled her mouth and smiled, "This nagging, go, can you still be hungry for me?"

He Gong smiled and took his wife and daughter.

He Zijin often comes to He Xin's house with his mother, and he is even more familiar with Li's place. Today, when he arrested Zhou, Li's family members also came. He looked flattering and said flattering words to Li frequently. Li's face was faint.

He Gong's family came early, and Li greeted Shen first. When he saw He Zijin, he smiled, "You haven't come for several days. Sister Kang misses you very much and often plays with the rattle you give her."

He Zijin bowed and asked Li, "Oh my mother, I miss Sister Kang too. Now I am learning needlework with my grandmother with my cousin. This is my cousin." He introduced the third girl to Li.

The third girl also bowed to Li as if He Zijin. Li took the third girl's hand, looked up and down, and smiled, "This girl is so handsome, what's her name?"

The third girl said, "My surname is Jiang, and my mother calls me Sanniu."

He Zijin immediately gave Jiang Sanniu the name, and Li nodded with a smile, "It's a good girl. The first time I met, there's nothing good. You and Zijin are one by one, just take it and play with it." The life maid brought it. The He family is rich, and Li and Shen are in good terms, and it's true that they often have contacts. However, Li's gift for such a big deal still scared He Zijin: This is too expensive.

Really, in the countryside, even in the county town, few people give precious gifts like jewelry.

The third girl didn't know if she wanted to accept it, so she went to see Shen. Because Li's family was there, it was difficult to refuse. Shen laughed, "Your aunt will give it to me, just take it."

The third girl and He Zijin both thanked her. Li smiled, "Sister Kang is inside, let's play with Sister Kang."

He Zijin took the third girl to the inner room to find He Kang to play. He Kang was a little thinner than the children of the same age, but he was in good spirits. He could also say something simple. When he saw He Zijin, he stood up and said tummy to call his sister in a silence, and reached out to her to hug her. He was obviously very familiar.

He Zijin often boasts that he is a heartthrob, and it is not unreasonable. She has a very good reputation in the infant and toddler world. I don’t know what happened, but He Zijin herself is still like a dumpling, but the children are happy to find her. He Zijin reached out to hug He Kang and asked her some childish words, such as "Do you miss your sister?" "What did you eat in the morning?" "How much did you eat?" He taught the third girl to He Kang and asked her to call her sister.

For a moment, there were probably more people coming, and Li ordered his maid to carry He Kang out. He Zijin and the third girl went out with him. He Zijin took the third girl to meet some familiar tribe members. Except for Li who gave him a very valuable meeting gift, most of these tribe members praised the third girl for their face and gave him nothing to give him, which made the third girl feel particularly at ease. There are also some girls in the tribe, some of whom are dressed better, and some are not as good as they wear, and they gather together to talk, chatting and chatting particularly lively.

Until noon, the first lady of Bishui County and the wife of the county magistrate, Mrs. Sun, came with two daughters.

Mrs. Sun is very unique. This not only refers to her identity, but also to her dressing, but also to her every word and action! Especially the slightly arrogant and distant posture of Mrs. Sun sitting in the chair shows that she is different from the country bumpkins in this room. Even the two girls in Mrs. Sun's family are also clearly separated from He Zijin, a little bit of arrogance.

Mrs. Sun has her own temperament and is not short of identity, so she speaks quite kindly. Li is even more polite, praised the two girls Sun and gave them a generous gift for meeting.

He Zijin understood why Li gave them a pair of small silver hairpins. It was probably because Mrs. Sun and her daughter were coming. Li specially prepared some things for the children. When he saw He Zijin and the third girl, he gave them one. They benefited from it.

When Mrs. Sun arrived, everyone was together, and the capture of Zhou Li began. He Kang grabbed a box of rouge and a golden hairpin. Everyone praised him for being well. After all, he would be a beautiful girl in the future. Li was also very happy. Mrs. Sun was a reserved person. After the capture of Zhou Li, she would sit down for a while and say goodbye.

Mrs. Li stayed hard, and Mrs. Sun laughed, "I'm here, I'm afraid everyone is uneasy. When will you get free, I'll come again." She advised Mrs. Li not to send her off and take her daughter away.

The first lady of Bishui County and the two first ladies of Bishui County came gently. However, within a moment, Bishui County, the first lady and the two first ladies of Bishui County left gently again.

Their visits and departures were so short that the local tyrants in Bishui County had not yet reacted and they were gone.

There was a moment of tranquility in the room. When everyone digested the news, a lively discussion began with a buzzing sound. There was no stinking qualities in the countryside. The He family was not a big family, but also a small county town. Everyone recognized it on weekdays and spoke directly. Someone said, "That's the county magistrate's wife, oh, it's the first time I've seen him."

Another said, "Last time when our sister Kang was in the third year, the county magistrate's wife came, and I saw it. I saw it again this time, and I didn't dare to recognize it."

"Yes, have you seen it? The hairpin on the head of the county magistrate's wife is golden! There are also red stones inlaid!"

"It must be very expensive, right?"

“That’s more to say.”

...

The above is selected for conversations between young, middle-aged and elderly women. Because they are all adults, even if they don’t know how to understand, everyone is still reserved. The children are different. He Zijin listens to a group of little girls chattering in the children’s circle.

The one who took the initiative to show off his IQ and made precious jewelry for everyone is Chen Daniu, the daughter of Chen Dalang, the cousin of He Gong's uncle. Because Chen Daniu got the salt in the prefecture, he suddenly broke out more than He Xin, and the women of the Chen family changed their heads to gold jewelry. Even Chen Daniu was only ten years old, and the ones on her head and neck were all shining with golden light, which was extremely noble. The changes in family background made Chen Daniu habitually raise her chin high when speaking.

Chen Daniu spoke at this moment, and she said, "That red stone is valuable, it's called pigeon blood."

The girl who answered her was also surnamed Chen, and she was of the same clan as Chen Daniu, and was of the same clan as Chen Ermei. However, although she was of the same clan, Chen Ermei's father was a small manager under Chen Dalang. Therefore, Chen Ermei became Chen Daniu's follower and was usually responsible for supporting Chen Daniu. At this time, Chen Ermei said, "Why is it called pigeon blood? Could it be stained with pigeon blood?"

Chen Daniu glanced at her, waved her hand, and two or three gold bracelets on her wrist jingled, "No, no, it means that the color of the stone is as red as the pigeon blood, so it is called pigeon blood."

Does Chen Ermei understand? Anyway, she looks like she has realized something. After saying "Oh", she flattered Chen Daniu, "Sister Daniu, you know so much."

Chen Daniu raised her chin higher and was about to be proud, but someone asked, "But the blood in the world is red. Why is it called pigeon blood alone, not duck blood, chicken blood?"

He Zijin almost choked the pastry to death, and laughed until his intestines were tied to his knots.

The third girl gave He Zijin water to drink. The group of local girls had already discussed loudly, "Not only the duck blood, but the chicken blood is red! Pig blood, cow blood, and sheep blood are also red!"

Someone raised his hand to replenish, "The blood is also red!"

So, everyone looked at Chen Daniu together, "The blood is all red, why is it called pigeon blood?"

Chen Daniu originally wanted to show her IQ, but she was asked in a daze. Finally, she became angry and started to show her IQ. She didn't show her IQ and showed her domineeringness. Chen Daniu was domineering, "You ask me, who will I ask?"

Unexpectedly, the friends didn't buy her domineering account and expressed their doubts about her IQ, "Tsk~ It turns out you don't know either~"

"That's right, you pretend to understand if you don't understand."

"I thought she really understood."

"So it's fake."

"I was almost cheated."

Chen Daniu was ashamed and annoyed, and her cheeks were red. At this moment, the ultimate killer finally revealed his true face. He Tang's daughter He Zhenzhen said softly, "Pigeon blood is actually called pigeon blood red, which does not refer to ordinary rubies. It must be called pigeon blood. It has this name because this gem is produced in the south. Because the gem is as thick as the blood of a pigeon called Dou, it is also called 'Pigeon Blood Red'."

He Zhenzhen's words were clear and clear. As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Daniu's face turned redder even more, as if the pigeon blood was inlaid on Mrs. Sun's head. She was still a ten-year-old girl, and her heart was not strong enough and her face was not thick enough. So, in the doubts, neglect, ridicule, and disdainful eyes of her friends, Chen Daniu twisted her noble head away in shame and anger, covered her face and ran out. Tears of sadness and anger were shed between her fingers, and accompanied by Chen Daniu's departure, and there were also crying crying...

This poor child, Xuanzhi was slapped in the face before he succeeded. The world was too cruel. He Zijin silently sympathized with Chen Daniu in his heart.

As for He Zhenzhen, the girl who came from behind, after slapped Chen Daniu away, she became the center of a new little rust, enjoying the flattery of a group of little rusts, such as "Zhenzhen, you know so much", "Zhenzhen, I don't know if you don't say it", "Zhenzhen, you are so amazing"... In short, it's so flattering.

He Zijin sighed: Where there are people, there are martial arts worlds.

Do you think Zhenzhen accidentally slapped Chen Daniu in the face?

wrong!

Too naive!

Because the Chen family was attracted by salt, the position of the He Xin family as the richest man in Bishui County was a bit unstable. The He Chen family was kind, but what was private can be seen from the dispute between Chen Daniu and He Zhenzhen!
