There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 515

[Chapter 515, Alienation]

Li Zixuan gets married, and Mrs. Li, as a real aunt, has to go to see her off in person.

On the 13th day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Li took several girls from the Yan family and Yang Xiuyun to board the carriage to the provincial capital. Because Yan Zhigao couldn’t leave because he had to go to the government office, Yan Wenxiu came forward to go there.

In the carriage, Mrs. Li looked at her daughter who was lying on the coffee table writing and drawing, and asked, “Didn’t you take good care of that girl Xiuyun before? Why didn’t you ask her to come into our carriage just now?”

Daohua Putting down the gold fountain pen in his hand, he was silent for a while: “My daughter found out that my cousin Xiuyun and I really couldn’t talk together. I was afraid that some of my unintentional words would cause her to think wildly again. It’s so boring, or Stay away.”

After rejecting Yang Xiuyun’s request yesterday, she didn’t show anything, but during lunch and dinner, Yang Xiuyun seemed to avoid her, which caused her grandmother to look at them several times, and was still in private. He pulled her down and asked if she had a conflict with Yang Xiuyun.

This made her very uncomfortable!

Mrs. Li looked at her daughter, thought of Xiuyun’s usual behavior, and sighed: “Your aunt’s life in the Yang family is difficult, which makes Xiuyun a little petty and shallow-sighted.”

She saw it more than once Xiuyun showed envious eyes towards her daughter, and sometimes spoke sourly.

“After the Zhou family’s happy event, she and your aunt will return to Beijing with your elder brother. During this period, for the sake of the old lady, you have to save face.”

Daohua: “Mom, I know I’m fine, I just don’t want to stay with Cousin Xiuyun all the time, otherwise, I’d have to worry about finding something to say, and I’d have to think about whether I’d touch her sensitive nerves when I speak, it’s too tiring.”

Mrs. Li naturally wouldn’t embarrass her daughter, she didn’t say much, she just said: “When you arrive at your uncle’s house, you have to help your mother take care of Xiuyun and Yihuan.”

Daohua nodded and continued Pick up the pen and write on the paper.

Mrs. Li raised her head and looked: “What are you doing?”

Daohua didn’t lift her head: “Spring plowing is about to begin, and I’m planning what to plant in my farms and fields.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Li raised her eyebrows . I am more proud and relieved that my daughter has these assets at such a young age, and the family has not been able to make up for it at all: “It is necessary to plan and plan carefully. These will be your dowry in the future.” How is

a woman living in her husband ‘s house? In addition to whether the natal family is capable or not, it also depends on the amount of dowry.

This time, Daohua didn’t change the subject, and asked instead: “Mother, although I have some shops and fields, compared with other noble girls, I’m still far behind, right?”

Mrs. Li He suppressed the smile on his face, and stroked his daughter’s hair: “Daughters of high-ranking noble families usually start saving dowries from birth, and they are naturally quite spectacular when they get married.”

“Our family background is too thin, It’s only been a few years, but don’t worry, I’ve entrusted your two uncles to help me. I’ve also accumulated some things like jewellery, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and precious wood. I’ll put away any good things I usually come across for you. , when you get married in the future, I will definitely prepare a good dowry for you.”

Daohua: “Mother, you don’t need to prepare it for me, just take care of my two elder brothers, and save my dowry by myself.”

Mrs. Li nodded Daohua scratched her forehead: “What nonsense are you talking about? With your two older brothers, you will naturally have yours. If you can save things, that is your ability, and it has nothing to do with the family.”

Daohua was silent for a while: “Mother, How are the preparations for the bride price of the elder brother? The Han family is the earl’s family, so the things we give should not be too shabby, right?”

Mrs. Li didn’t care too much: “Master Han and Mr. Han have lived in our house for a long time. , They all know about our family’s situation. Besides, this marriage is also the word of the Han family. But I won’t make my face swollen

to look fat.” Seeing Mrs. Li’s confidence, Dao Hua stopped talking.

This is the difference between marrying a wife and marrying a daughter.

To marry a daughter-in-law is to marry a girl from another family to serve others, and the man should be more confident no matter what; to marry a daughter is to marry a girl from one’s own family to serve others, for the sake of her daughter. It is inevitable to condescend.

While talking, the pier arrived.

Everyone left their carriages and boarded the boat. It was almost noon and they arrived at the provincial capital wharf.

Because the Lantern Festival was approaching, the pier was particularly lively, and there were a lot of boats passing by. After waiting for a while, it was Daohua’s and the others’ boat to dock.

“There are many people outside, you girls should put on your hats.” Mrs. Li told Daohua and Yan Yihuan, and then looked at Yan Wenxiu, “Take care of your sisters, don’t let They were hit.”

Yan Wenkai said loudly, “Mother, you can rest assured that my third brother and I are here.”

Mrs. Li glanced at her youngest son with a smile, and led Daohua, who had put on her veiled hat, off the boat.

There were many carriages on the shore, some came to pick them up, and some sent them off. However, the stewards sent by the Li family to pick them up quickly found them and led them to the place where the Li family’s carriages were parked.

After more than half an hour, Li’s residence arrived.

Because it was noon, everyone went to the dining room to have lunch after greeting each other.

After eating, sisters Li Zixuan and Li Zixin led Daohua and Yang Xiuyun to their yard.

Seeing Li Zixuan’s cheerfully decorated new house, Yan Yihuan and the others looked around curiously, looking here and there.

Daohua laughed and said, “It’s so pretty?”   Yan

Yi laughed and said, “Our family hasn’t had a wedding yet, so I couldn’t help but take a second look.”

After the family discusses the date of the wedding, our family will also hold a happy event.”

Yan Yile continued: “Yes, we will take turns to do it. After the eldest brother passes, it will be the second brother, and after the second brother, it will be the third brother. In the future, our family will Happy events will continue to flow.”

Li Zixin walked over, pulled Yan Yile and said with a smile: “Isn’t it? After the brothers are done, it will be your turn.”

Seeing Li Zixin teasing herself, Yan Yile quit immediately and chased her to go Beat her.

The others watched and couldn’t stop laughing.

At this moment, a maid came over and blessed Daohua and the others.

Li Zixuan asked: “What’s the matter?” The

servant girl replied: “Back to Miss Yan, Madam asked me to come here to deliver the invitation to Miss Yan.” Saying this, she handed the invitation to Daohua.

“Mine?”

Dao Hua took the invitation, quickly opened it, and then laughed: “Yuan Yao invited us to attend the church at their house tomorrow.”

Li Zixin asked quickly, “Shall we go too?”

Dao Hua Hua nodded: “Well, everyone is together.”

Li Zixin immediately cheered up: “Great, I haven’t been to any other official mansion except my uncle’s house, especially the mansion of the second-rank compound.”

Li Zixuan smiled and signaled the servant girl to go down.

Who knows, the maid is still looking at Daohua.

Daohua raised her eyebrows: “Is there anything else?”

Maid: “The maid who sent the invitation said she wanted to meet the girl.”

Daohua glanced at Li Zixuan and the others: “That’s fine, I’ll go and see.”

Li Zixuan: “We will accompany you Let’s go together?”

Daohua shook her head: “No need, I’ll be back as soon as I go, soon. You go and prepare refreshments, and I’ll eat it when I come back.”

Afterwards, Daohua followed the maid to meet the messenger, and when she saw clearly When she looked at her face, her eyes widened immediately: “Yuan Yao, why is it you?”

Today is the second watch!
