Chapter 32 32. New Years Ceremony
Feng Jinyao looked at her shy look and then remembered that the shopkeeper Wang mentioned by Yun Xu seemed to be Xiangqiu's cousin.
At a young age, he became the shopkeeper of Fengjia Yiyuan's pawnshop. He has a pair of eyes that know the best. The profit of this pawnshop is the first among many shops, and most of this is due to him.
It is a good thing that they can find their own destination.
Thinking of this, Feng Jinyao also enjoyed the beauty of adulthood.
Dont worry, when the time comes I will add makeup to you, and Shopkeeper Wang will not dare to underestimate you.
"Miss..." Hydrangea called out coquettishly, looking very cute. However, Yunxu next to her saw that she was so embarrassed that she came out with a smile and changed the subject.
This years snow came really late. It has only started to fall in the twelfth lunar month now. Im afraid it will rain continuously in the spring next year.
These words reminded Feng Jinyao that Yun Xu was right. In the twelfth year of the Apocalypse, it did rain continuously throughout the year. Not only did it affect the harvest, but the price of food also skyrocketed.
In this case, they should make preparations in advance.
He squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then gave instructions.
Go and tell Uncle Fu to allocate 10% of the profit from the shop this year to stock up on grain, and put it on the farm where your mother was married, so that Mother Bais son can watch it.
10%? Is it too much?
Yun Xu followed Feng Jinyao to calculate the accounts for the past few days, so he naturally knew how much 10% was.
The current price of food is only seven or eight cents, and I'm afraid I would have to stock up on more than half of the village.
Its okay, do as I say. In addition, let Zhuangtou find a few powerful farmers to divide the existing farmland into two and use half of it to plant lotus roots. This way, no matter how heavy the rain is, there is no fear of losing the harvest.
Lotus root?
Yunxu remembered that when he was young, he had seen people in the village planting crops, and they were really not afraid of flooding. He immediately nodded and made a note of it, and would make arrangements later.
After struggling all morning, I finally got everything arranged.
Choosing an afternoon when the sun was warmer, Feng Jinyao took the New Year gifts she had prepared and went to the Bai family to visit her relatives.
At this time in previous years, Mrs. Feng would go back to her parents' home with her things, and occasionally she would go with her. But this year was different. Mrs. Feng was ill in bed, and the power of housekeeping was given to her again, so she had to bear the burden of visiting relatives and friends. Nature also belongs to her.
The boy at the gate of Baifu saw the Feng family's carriage and immediately came forward to invite it, his words full of excitement.
"The third lady is finally here. The eldest lady has asked the younger one to wait here long ago, waiting for you to come."
"Auntie, you're welcome. Please lead the way."
Returning to the familiar Bai family again, her grandmothers birthday banquet seemed like yesterday. Thinking of her cousins lovely smiling face, she couldnt help but feel happy.
I dont know how she has been spending the past half month?
But he is still fighting with his cousin Bai Sihan.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw that I had arrived in front of my aunt's yard.
Her capable mother Lin had been waiting at the gate of the yard to greet her. When they met, her face was filled with smiles.
Miss, Im finally here. Ive been waiting for you for a long time.
Oh? Aunts, are you okay today?
"The princess came to talk to the eldest lady. I heard that you were coming, so she stayed here and waited. The eldest lady also sent a message early, asking you to wait for her for a while, and she would finish embroidering the red needlework. Come here."Embroidered female red?
Feng Jinyao couldn't help but picture her angry look in her mind, and couldn't help but feel sorry for the silk she had "ruined".
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw the pond under the corridor. It was filled with hot spring water, so there were still a few koi swimming freely in it in the winter.
My niece has met her eldest aunt and her fourth aunt.
"Here we come!" Aunt Lin looked at her, as if she was happy, and hurriedly called her to come and sit down next to her.
It was cold in winter, so the two aunts were nestled on the red sandalwood lotus patterned couch under the open window, and they were covered with lamb blankets, which was the warmest thing.
Today, my aunt is dressed plainly, and her light yellow jacket is both warm and flattering to her complexion. If someone who doesnt know about it looks at her, they might think that she is a young lady who has just been married.
The fourth aunt is really happy. She wears a palace-red gown woven with flowers and flowers. The hairpin and ring surface are inlaid with round East beads. She wears a pair of excellent mutton-fat jade bracelets on her wrists. She can see that she is looking forward to it. In a great mood.
Even the look in Feng Jinyaos eyes was full of kindness.
Its still snowing outside. Did it get cold on the way here?
After saying that, he handed over the gilded peony hand burner in his hand.
The warmth started from the palm of my hand and spread, and soon my whole body was feeling warm as well.
My mother is ill and cannot go out, so I am here to give her New Years gifts. Nothing else. I got some good leathers. I used them to make coats for my grandmother and aunts. They are the most comfortable.
"You girl, you do remember us. It just so happened that my natal sister-in-law sent me a few baskets of snow pears and green dates from the south of the Yangtze River. They are best for moistening the lungs. You can take some back and give them to my eldest sister to try. Maybe they will help her cough. .
Feng Jinyao smiled and said yes.
Sister-in-law, are there any happy events to be held in Beijing recently? I saw you prepared some gifts two days ago. Which family are they for?
The fourth aunt, Princess Wen Yi, suddenly asked. Although her mind was not as lively as Mrs. Bai's, her ability to interject a topic was still as good as Wuhen's.
Feng Jinyao will be pregnant next year, and then she will start preparing for marriage negotiations. From now on, she will naturally integrate into the circle of famous aristocrats in Beijing.
So the two aunts from the Bai family talked about the recent happy events in Beijing, and also sorted out the circle of friends she would make in the future.
It was hired by the Liang family.
Oh, the one I ordered is the granddaughter from Xu Ges hometown? Siruo has a good relationship with her, and I have met her several times. She is a good girl with rules and principles, and she is generous and beautiful.
Mrs. Bai Si said with appreciation that she only has one daughter at her knees, and she likes that girl very much. If she has a son, she will definitely become a model of a clan wife if she asks her to be her daughter-in-law.
"Who says otherwise? I heard that the Liang family spent a lot of money on this betrothal. The betrothal gift was carried into the Xu family like water. My sister-in-law was invited to watch the ceremony. She prepared twenty-eight pairs of red gold bracelets, not to mention There were several large boxes full of silks and satins, top-quality seafood and four-season tea candies, and she was very excited when she saw them."
Mrs. Bai was born into the famous Lin family and was very popular in the circle of ladies in the capital. Therefore, if there was any trouble in other families, she had the best news than anyone else.
"The Liang family is just a minister of Dali Temple. He doesn't make much money on weekdays. It seems that he has emptied most of the Liang family's mansion."
"Yes, but it's just such a son. If you don't make friends with him, who else can you make friends with?"
The two sisters laughed heartily. Feng Jinyao listened to their casual banter, but she had other plans in mind.
Princess Wen Yi didn't know what she was thinking, but she was talking about another happy event.
