Liu Manniang listen to this meaning, but where she has to show a little bit of dissatisfaction with the food, you have to be a mom like a kitchen to serve this family.
How can that be? She is not favored in the old Liu family, hoping to marry over to be able to turn over to be the master, how can the first time to get that girl's way?
"Miss, since everyone can eat, then naturally, Manniang can eat too!"
She knows that the lower she puts her posture, the more Nian Laosan will cherish herself, as long as there is Nian Laosan's love in her hands, what kind of good life is not ...?
Aunt Liu that smile is too obvious, the beginning of the year a look in the eyes, and then look at the side of the silent Lu Minjun, heart, her silly mother ai, also only have to own more on the heart.
"Father ah, you see our family Aunt Liu really really understand, the whole Xikou town can not find like her this understanding aunt to come! Father, you're so lucky, in the future, Auntie Liu will definitely add a brother to our Nian family!"
As expected, when it came to having a son, her father, Nian Laosan's face immediately changed, "Yes, yes! Auntie Man is really a good, good woman!"
"That's not true, I heard from Mo Li next door that the aunts in their family fight over this and that every day, and they are very quarrelsome! Where is it like our Aunt Liu ..."
Said the beginning of the year a glance at her, "and know how to cherish father, and know how to serve the mother of the Lord, alas, a comparison of the two compartments, and only then realized that the world's most blessed, is my father!"
On the first day of the year, this high hat, naturally wear Nian Laosan eyebrows open smile.
Liu Manniang is not a fool, that glance she smacked out the flavor, she can follow the heart to say no?
Serving the master mother this item, since she entered the Nian family, but not so intended! This little girl is setting her up!
"Chuyi you're also a good one, even if your Aunt Liu gives you a younger brother in the future, this will still be your home, the dowry that should be given to you, father will naturally give it to you."
Nian Laosan was held up a little fluttering, completely forgetting that not long ago, father and daughter had so little animosity.
"Mother did you hear me, father said it himself, I said how could father be that kind of ungrateful person, he married Aunt Liu, is not going to forget you, father you say is not it?"
The first year of the year this picks up his own words are not quite believe, but she always have to pick up and say, otherwise her father even more will not take her mother seriously.
Nian Lao San's face had so many hints of unnaturalness, and then nodded.
This girl's little mind, even though he is a big old man, at this moment is also considered to see through, this is worried that he treats his wife harshly!
"Minjun you always think so much, there's no way I, Nian Laosan, am that kind of person!" Nian Laosan patted his chest to guarantee, but in his heart, he was a little bit weak, regretting why he had to present himself in front of his daughter just now ...
"Great!" The first year of the year was waiting for these words, while reminding Lu Minjun, "Mother, didn't you also prepare a meeting gift for Aunt Liu?"
Lu Minjun, who had not said anything, was actually staring at Liu Manniang, thinking, "This body is afraid to give birth to a big fat boy, and Nian Lao San doesn't know how happy he will be." ...
This will be the beginning of the year one pushed a hand, only to come back to God, from the hand pull down a hit with the phoenix flying silver bracelet, stuffed into the hands of Liu Manniang: "This is my special go to you to play, don't dislike it is good."
Liu Manniang pushed back a bit, then took over, to here, is the end of the first track.
The first day of the year has never been a peaceful, and wants to add some color to this scene: "Ya, my father said Aunt Liu you want to eat lotus seed soup, still eat it?"
Liu Manniang's face was red, squeaked, "No ... don't eat, must be Missy heard wrong."
With so many high hats on her head, where would she dare to ask Lu Minjun to go and cook soup for her?
"Father ah, look at you, next time never listen to the wrong again, if you get my aunt and mother to have a misunderstanding, can all be your fault!"
New Year's Day affectionately took her father's hand, while saying that, she walked towards the dining room.
Nian Laosan shook his head helplessly, his daughter's few words had dissolved the conflict that was about to rise between his wife and concubine, this girl, sometimes he couldn't help her.
On the dining table was a large pot of white porridge, with two kinds of small dishes, fifteen gave the first year of the year a bowl, they went down.
The first year of the year a little hands to give the elders to serve rice meaning also did not, sat down and looked at Liu Manniang with a smile.
Liu Manniang just sat down, saw the first year of the year smiling at herself with a deep meaning.
This called her heart a little hairy, this big lady, with the usual merchant's daughter is a little different.
Nian Laosan on her left was sitting upright, the rice bowl in front of her was empty, and Lu Minjun on her right also had a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Liu Manniang sat down and stood ʟᴇxɪ up again, her face a little hot.
The Nian family didn't have any maids, and Miss Nian didn't look like she would serve anyone ...
So she first took the initiative to serve a bowl to Nian Laosan, and then to Lu Minjun as well, and finally, only then did she fill herself with a small half bowl of white porridge, and sat back down upright again.
At this time, the first year of the year's hand under the table, then gently pushed her mother Lu's, Lu's immediately understand, faintly smiled and said: "Let's eat."
Beginning of the year a command, take the lead to pick up chopsticks clip some small dishes into his father's bowl: "Father you eat a little more, a moment but also to go to the store to do things."
"Good daughter, it's still you who understands!" Nian Laosan said with a narrow smile, and started to move his chopsticks.
He gave Liu some small dishes of various colors, and raised his eyes to look at Liu with more and more tenderness.
Liu Manniang red face buried head to eat, occasionally also return a shy little eyes.
A meal, the beginning of the year saw his mother did not move chopsticks ....
After eating breakfast, New Year's Day followed his father to the coffin store.
Along the way familiar neighbors have to year old three congratulations, year old three joyfully back.
Perhaps the mood is really good, and finally went all the way humming a little tune.
At the beginning of the year, I thought that the family now has a more Aunt Liu, and Aunt Liu does not seem to be the kind of people who will take the initiative to do the work, that can not let her mother a head of the mother to take care of her a concubine strike?
Thinking about it, only let his father to spend money to buy a subordinate good.
But this subordinate can not be bought in the name of his father, otherwise his father if one day a hot brain, told the subordinate to take good care of Aunt Liu, that would be the cart before the horse.
"Father ah ..." When he arrived at the store, New Year's Day smiled and poured a cup of hot tea for his father.
He respectfully pressed him into a chair and sat down, and then he tapped on his back with his hands and feet.
Nian Lao San comfortably narrowed his eyes and laughed, "Holding something bad again? Speak out and listen."
"Daughter really has one thing to ask for." Her hands are not light and heavy tapping, sweet voice, extremely pleasing to the ability, she has known since childhood, this pampering can be more effective than splashing.
"You and I father and daughter, what to ask for? Speak out, can do, dad must give you do well!" At this time the year old three heart is feeling sorry for his own daughter, if she has any wish, he will certainly do his best to help her complete.
"Father you for us that home up early in the morning, a lifetime has not enjoyed the blessings of the daughter this heart is really sorry, just think of using the daughter's private money in the past few years to buy a maiden back ...."
Said the hand movement did not stop, "one to wait for parents to live and live, the second, but also to decorate the face, how to say that my family in the town of Xikou is also considered a bit of a foundation of the family, even a wait master's maid also do not have the words, it does not make sense is not ...".
The first day of the year this was said, saying that Nian Lao San was extremely comfortable.
"Father has long wanted to do this, rare first year you have the heart, buy the money of the maid how can I ask you to pay? Father will give you three or five taels, the rest, buy yourself some nice clothes to wear!"
"Look at the girls in the Mo family next door, they look great when they're dressed up! My family's First Year isn't any worse than their girls, don't dress up like a wild boy all day long."
The first year nodded with satisfaction, thinking that although this father of hers is prone to hot-headedness, but such a person, also has his benefits.
"Father ah, this money to buy the maid, you have to let me pay for it, right as a piece of filial piety from my daughter, you have to give me this opportunity! The silver that you give me, I will also take it, maybe when you go out to buy goods, you can also save the emergency when you run into money, do you think it's good?"
Nian Lao San nodded with satisfaction, this daughter, he has always treated as a son to raise.
The first year of the year did not let him down, from the material to the plate to the coffin to the hands of others, this kind of small things, she handled it much more practiced than herself.
Unfortunately, the ability is strong, she is also a girl, in the future in the end is someone else's family, otherwise he would not be this age still want to give birth to a son out to inherit the family business.
Nian family coffin store in the early years also rely on some of the meager earnings to maintain the family, although the family will not starve to death, but really can not talk about a good business.
Until that year, he really had no choice, he will be the beginning of the first year to the store to help.
The first day of the year did not enter the store to follow him day and night to beat the coffin, but sat on the side and asked this and that, but asked the question, and always do not leave the industry.
For example, why don't the big families come to their house to make coffins? What kind of material is used for the best coffins? What kind of coffin is the most popular among people, and so on.
At first, Nian Laosan was still impatient, until later, the first day of the year pulled him aside and wrote and drew on the paper and told him a lot to listen to ...
"Father ah, we do coffin business, most do is local business, that we xikou town it, is also a kind of quite prosperous big area ...."
"The big families accounted for 10%, but 90% are common people, my daughter thought, if we do a good job with that 10% of the business, the revenue can be much more profitable than that 90%!"
At the beginning of the year, Nian Laosan listened to these words, otherwise there would not have been the Nian family coffin store today.
With Nian Laosan's three to five taels of silver, New Year's Day naturally wanted to make a trip to the toothwoman's place.
Nian XV didn't wait for Nian Laosan's order and followed Nian Yiyi out the door, most of the toothwives in Xikou Town did unseen business, so the place they chose was farther away.
"Fifteenth, you've been in our family for two years, right?" Walking down the road, Fifteen paid out of his own pocket and bought a string of sugar gourds for the first year of the year.
The first year of the year didn't squirm, taking it in his hand and sending it to his mouth.
Nian XV usually doesn't talk much, but whatever First Year asked, he answered one by one, so he nodded his head in agreement.
"Let's see, tell me honestly, what did you do before?" The first year of the year bites that sugar gourd into a kaka sound, eating it on one side and asking on the other.
Year fifteen was born a table of talent, body bones are also robust, more importantly, look boring sound, but the brain is active.
Will recognize words will count, cold, will show two hands in front of her, this guy must be a practitioner.
"I don't remember." But no matter how many times she asked, his answer was just this one sentence.
I don't remember, I don't remember anything from before, even my name was forgotten.
Now, he was peacefully working as his little fellow in the Nian family's coffin store, peacefully being her little follower.
"You didn't sell your body to the Nian family either, and according to my father's stingy nature, it's impossible for him to pay you monthly money."
The first year of the year to understand that her father, to their own family members although also quite generous, but to treat outsiders, really is an iron rooster a, a hair also do not pull.
Nian XV has been with the Nian family for nearly two years, and has not received a penny for his work.
Sometimes the first day of the year really can't stand it, just sneak to his hand to stuff some silver, or give him to make a pair of clothes to make a pair of shoes.
"I don't spend money."
Again, this answer! The first year of the year rolled his eyes at him ...
I thought to myself, "You're a dead-eyed man, you don't spend money now, but you'll have to spend money on a lot of things in the future! Marrying a wife and having children, which is not spending money!
"Not I say you, manly man, must have some ambition, you can't be in the Nian family to do a lifetime of long labor, right? If you go on like this, how can you get a wife in the future? What money will you have to feed your children?"
New Year's Day felt that this proprietor of his own was a real pain in the ass, this child's brain is active, but he just can't plan for himself, so what's the use?
Nian XV walked beside her, lifting his good-looking eyebrows to look at the girl beside him, a gentle smile on his lips.
Two years of time, his big miss has grown more and more watery ...
