Chapter 193 Gift
After sending Zhou Jingwan away, Daohua turned around and returned to the old lady's yard.
Entering the house, I found that Yan Yihuan and the others had not left yet, and I was immediately surprised. As usual, they would not stay in the old lady's house for such a long time, and they had gone to play somewhere long ago.
Even the adults Yan Zhiyuan are still here.
"Sister, you are finally back. Please open the gift and show it to us."
Seeing Daohua come back, Yan Yile immediately came up to her, pulled her and pointed at the gifts given by Dong Yuanxuan and others.
Before Daohua could say anything, the old lady spoke first: "I told you why the sun came out from the west today. I thought you guys stayed here to talk to the old lady, but I didn't expect you were eyeing your eldest sister's gift.
."
Mrs. Sun immediately smiled and said: "Mom, these children also want to join in the fun. Who made their eldest sister's birthday party so well organized?"
Mrs. Li raised her eyes and looked at Mr. Sun: "Isn't it just that we all had a meal together? Second brother and sister, please tell me why it became a birthday party? Who am I inviting?"
Mrs. Sun's face froze, and at the same time she felt a little annoyed.
She found that her sister-in-law was becoming less and less dignified when she spoke now. In front of so many people, she would fall out with her at any time.
"If you can't speak, don't speak!"
Yan Zhiyuan glared at Mrs. Sun, then looked at Mrs. Li with a smile: "Sister-in-law, this is what she is like, don't argue with her."
Mrs. Li glanced at Yan Zhiyuan, didn't say anything immediately, picked up the tea and drank it.
Sun's stomach twists and turns and she realizes that she just said that Daohua is hosting a birthday party, but she is just thinking that Yihuan's birthday will be in two months, and she also wants to hold a party or something.
She wants to hold a birthday party for her daughter, but she won't stop her. She just pays for it herself. However, she uses her daughter as a raft to take advantage of the public. It's really annoying.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li put down the teacup and looked at the old lady: "Mom, the second brother and sister talked about the birthday party, which gave me some ideas. Now the children in the family are getting older and older, and each one has his own social circle.
I think in the future, they will have to worry about their birthdays themselves."
Whether or not you can invite people, and who you can invite, depends on your abilities.
Mrs. Sun immediately wanted to object. Their second and third bedrooms all depended on the big house to live, and they didn’t have any official status. Who knew anyone?
It's a pity that Mrs. Li didn't give her this chance.
"In this way, children can also exercise their communication and entertainment skills. At the same time, after a banquet, they can also have a general understanding of various expenses, so that they will be in charge of the house and not understand anything in the future."
Mrs. Yan nodded: "This is a good idea."
Mrs. Sun was anxious: "But whose expense is it?"
As soon as these words came out, she lowered her head and wanted to slap herself. She said it so bluntly. Didn't it make it clear that she wanted to pay for it?
Mrs. Li's lips curled up, and a trace of sarcasm flashed across her eyes. This Mrs. Sun is still so good at calculating. She thought about it and smiled: "Daohua is the eldest sister. I did the math. This time on her birthday, the total number of
It only cost less than ten taels of silver."
"Then let's calculate it according to this in the future. For the girls' birthdays, the father-in-law will give out ten taels of silver. As for the brothers... who often run out and get to know more people, they will give out twenty taels.
Right."
"This..."
Seeing what Mrs. Sun wanted to say, Mrs. Li smiled and intercepted the words: "Of course, if you are a parent who wants to help, then you can do it in private."
"Our family, after all, is not as good as those high-ranking families with rich financial resources and rich cultural background. Naturally, the children in our family cannot develop that extravagant style. They have the ability to do big things. Second brother, third brother, what do you think?
?"
Yan Zhiyuan twitched the corner of his mouth, nodded with a smile, and said nothing on his face, but in his heart he was madly complaining that Mrs. Li was too stingy.
What can twenty taels of silver be enough for?
But Yan Zhiqiang said: "Twenty taels of silver? Is it too much? This is enough for us to eat in our hometown for a year. How about giving less?"
Hearing this, Daohua couldn't hold it back, and immediately lay on the old lady's shoulder, facing inward, covering her mouth and laughing softly.
The second uncle and the second aunt looked distressed because they didn't have enough money and needed to dig into their pockets. When the third uncle arrived, he said it was too much and asked him to take some back.
Why hadn't she noticed before that her third uncle was such a lovely person?
Mrs. Yan glared at her granddaughter, indicating that she would have some influence.
Daohua then sat up straight, but she still couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
Unable to take advantage, both Yan Zhiyuan and Sun died.
Yan Yile didn't care about this. She approached Daohua again, pulled her and asked her to open a gift.
Daohua didn't think it was anything to open a gift, so she asked Wang Maner to take the gift over and opened it in front of everyone.
"Wow, what a beautiful cup. Why is it transparent?"
Yan Yile reached out and picked one up to look at.
Others looked over one after another with strange expressions on their faces.
This is a set of drinking utensils, a wine bottle and eight cups.
Yan Zhiyuan often runs around, but he has some knowledge and recognized it at a glance: "This is a glass cup. It is said that it was introduced from abroad. It is very rare."
"Mr. Dong is indeed worthy of being born in the Hou family. He gave away a complete set of glass drinking utensils as soon as he was told to give them away. This is a really generous gesture."
Hearing this, Yan Yile immediately looked at Daohua: "Sister, there are eight cups, can you just give me one?"
Daohua smiled faintly and was about to refuse when she saw the old lady quickly taking the cup from Yan Yile's hand: "Give me what you want. This wine set is a complete set. If you take just one, it won't be complete. Besides, it's just one."
Cup, what can you do with it?"
Yan Yile pouted: "I can use it for fun."
The old lady ignored her, put the wine glass into the box, and motioned to Wang Man'er to take it away.
Daohua ignored Yan Yile and picked up another gift to open.
"It's a glass mirror!"
As soon as the box was opened, Yan Zhiyuan spoke.
Daohua quickly picked up the mirror and looked at herself.
It's so pitiful, it's been eleven years since she came to ancient times, and she finally sees what she looks like!
"Grandma, look quickly."
After taking a look at herself, Daohua immediately pointed the mirror at the old lady.
The old lady looked at herself in the mirror and was immediately stunned: "Why is it so clear?" Then she said, "Why am I so old? There are so many wrinkles on my face."
Hearing this, Daohua immediately covered her head and laughed.
Sure enough, no matter how old a woman is, she always cares about her appearance.
The old lady rolled her eyes at her granddaughter and sighed: "When I used bronze mirrors in the past, I didn't feel anything, but this glass mirror illuminates people clearly."
"I want to see it too, I want to see it too!"
Yan Yile also came up to her. Daohua didn't say anything and handed the mirror to her.
"Be careful, don't drop it." The old lady warned. She had never seen this glass mirror before. She didn't need anyone to tell her, she knew that it must be very precious.
Yan Yihuan and Yan Yishuang couldn't help it anymore. They all came to Yan Yile and looked in the mirror. Even Sun Shi also squeezed in.
Mrs. Sun looked at herself in the mirror, touched her face and sighed: "In our family, Daohua is the most blessed. Look, for any birthday, you can receive such a good gift, compared to us."
The elders are much stronger."
