There is Room For the Poor Daughter

Chapter 99, Calling This Problem

Daohua didn't know what the second uncle Yan Zhiyuan and Aunt Lin had to say to the cheap father. At breakfast the next day, the cheap father was a little hesitant to say anything to her, and she passed it directly.

After the watermelons are collected today, the second uncle is going back to Fucheng.

The first day of August is her birthday. This time, several cousins ​​and cousins ​​have prepared gifts for her, and she has to prepare gifts in return.

In addition to bringing each person a bamboo tube of jasmine tea, some of the flowers planted in the garden in the courtyard had already bloomed. She transplanted them into flower pots and gave each person a pot.

"Second uncle, you can come and see me more in the future."

In the afternoon, after the watermelon was loaded into the car, Li Xingnian was about to rush back to the provincial capital.

On the provincial side, Li Xingchang has already contacted the buyer, and he has to quickly deliver the watermelon back to others.

Li Xingnian nodded with a smile: "Okay, the second uncle will definitely come to see Daohua more in the future."

Daohua said with a smile: "When you come next time, bring your cousins ​​and cousins ​​too, and I'll take them to my village to play."

Li Xingnian agreed: "Okay, your cousins ​​and cousins ​​are tired of staying at home, so let them come over next time."

Mrs. Li took the call: "Second brother, be careful on the road."

Li Xingnian: "Don't worry, you will reach Fucheng soon by water."

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Yan, Li Xingnian left, and Yan Zhigao also deliberately put aside the affairs in the yamen and came out to send it off.

Looking at the passing carriage, Mrs. Li was a little reluctant, but at the same time a little relieved.

After being married to the Yan family for so many years, every time her parents gave her something to supplement her, this time, she was able to send something back.

Although it is only food produced in a carload of fields, whether it is grapes or vegetables, even the noble little prince thinks that it is good to eat, and it can be regarded as a good deal.

"Mother, if you want Uncle and the others, we'll go to Fucheng to see them."

"There are so many things to deal with at home, and there is time for that."

"There are some, there is time, like that, there is still some squeezing."

Mrs. Li: "." My daughter said this strangely, what does it mean?

Songheyuan.

Daohua happily remembered the account on Zhuangzi.

She sold the watermelon directly to her second uncle at a 20% discount on the market price in Xingzhou City. As for the price he sold at the provincial government, she didn't care.

"Grandma, I made more than five hundred taels from the watermelon on my Zhuangzi. Do you think it's enough to buy a shop in Xingzhou City?" Daohua asked suddenly.

Mrs. Yan glanced at her: "Why do you buy a shop?"

Daohua: "Selling things. I have a lot of flowers in my yard. After a while, I'm going to transplant some beautiful ones into flower pots and sell them as potted plants."

"Don't all these literati like to gather together to enjoy flowers? It's already mid-July. Whether it's the Mid-Autumn Festival in August or the Double Ninth Festival in September, it's all suitable for gatherings."

"I have planted a lot of chrysanthemums, and they will surely sell well by then."

"Um"

"This year's watermelons are less and planted late. Next year, we have to plant them earlier. By then, the harvest will definitely be better than this year. At that time, I will also buy a Zhuangzi for planting flowers."

"By the way, when the medicinal materials and fruit trees can be harvested and the money is sold, I have to buy another Zhuangzi, which is dedicated to growing medicinal materials."

Seeing her granddaughter happily looking forward to her future life, Mrs. Yan only felt happy and happy.

She just likes to see Daohua's eyes light up and her eyes exuding infinite vitality. Looking at her like this, she always feels that life is getting more and more hopeful, and there is nothing difficult to pass.

"Oh, yes, and grapes. When I make the wine, I will have another income."

"Wait a minute, I'll ask my mother to help me look at the shop." Daohua sorted out the account and looked at Mrs. Yan with a smile, "Grandmother, when I prepared grapes for my second uncle, I asked someone to send some more. , I'm going to learn how to make wine now, are you going to watch?"

Mrs. Yan got up quickly: "Go, why don't you go!" She sat idle all day, and her body was rusting.

In the evening, when everyone came to Songheyuan for dinner, Daohua had sealed up a small jar of grapes according to the practice of the previous life.

Before the food came, everyone sat in the old lady's room chatting.

During this period, Yan Wenjie looked at his parents from time to time, and hoped that they would quickly tell their uncle about going to Wangyue Academy to study.

The day after tomorrow, the big brothers are going to leave. If you don't talk about it, it will be too late.

Yan Zhiyuan didn't move, he expected that Concubine Lin wouldn't let it go, and she'd better come out with this one.

Sun shi kept looking at Yan Zhiyuan's wink, and seeing that he didn't speak, he had to endure the impatience in his heart.

"Mother, you sit down for a while longer. I'll go and see if the food is ready?"

Mrs. Li went to the dining room. Shortly after she left, Aunt Lin suddenly came over with Yan Wenbin and Yan Yishuang.

Seeing Concubine Lin, a trace of displeasure flashed in Mrs. Yan's eyes. She glanced at Yan Zhigao, who looked a little uncomfortable, and said lightly, "What are you doing here?"

Aunt Lin had a gentle smile on her face: "Daughter-in-law hasn't been able to greet the old lady for a long time, so she came here to say her favor."

As soon as these words came out, Daohua frowned immediately, glanced at the cheap dad who seemed to have not noticed anything, and then looked at the other people who were silent.

Big brother Yan Wenxiu's face was a little ugly, he moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but after glancing at the cheap dad, he swallowed the words in his mouth again, from his frowning brows, it could be seen that he was suppressing his emotions .

As for the fourth brother Yan Wenkai, he was biting his ears with the third brother Yan Wentao, but he didn't hear what Concubine Lin said at all.

The people in the second room may have heard something, but they didn't mean to speak.

The people of the third house, who spend all year in the countryside, do not understand the rules for addressing wives and concubines at all.

Daohua breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, my mother was not in the room, otherwise she would be sad.

"Fifth brother and third sister, I don't know something, and I want to ask you for advice." Since she learned the rules from Master Shen, she knew that in ancient times, even if the elders made mistakes, the juniors could not point out in person, otherwise, it would be disrespectful and unfilial. .

She can't say cheap dad, as the eldest sister, the younger brother and sister should say it.

Neither Yan Wenbin nor Yan Yishuang expected that Daohua would suddenly talk to them, and was stunned for a moment.

Yan Yishuang glanced at Yan Zhigao, thinking that her father was here, big sister didn't dare to do anything, she changed into a smile and said, "big sister, please tell me."

Daohua looked up at Aunt Lin and asked with a smile, "My younger brothers and sisters have gone to more schools than me. I would like to ask, can a concubine call herself a daughter-in-law?"

As soon as these words came out, Yan Yishuang and Yan Wenbin changed color one after another, and the expressions of other people in the room also fluctuated, especially Yan Zhigao, who didn't notice Lin's name just now.

Concubine Lin's face changed greatly, she looked frightened, and she knelt down with a 'bang': "Miss, it's my fault, I was too nervous and said the wrong thing just now."

Daohua's expression did not change, she looked at Yan Wenbin, and said lightly: "Before, when the fifth brother called Lin Yiniang wrong, now, Lin Yiniang has also made a mistake, didn't she say that Lin Yiniang was born in a scholarly family, why? , aren't the rules as good as me, who grew up in the country?"

This question of calling may not be a problem in modern times, but in ancient times, it represented status to a certain extent. Aunt Lin called herself a daughter-in-law in front of her grandmother. Did she want to replace Mrs. Li?

Hearing this, Yan Zhigao looked very embarrassed. Although the eldest daughter didn't say it to him, the complaints in her words were obvious.

At this time, he was also thinking, is it too much indulging in the Lin family?

Calling herself a daughter-in-law to her mother, is this what a concubine should do?

Mrs. Yan was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted, and then became furious: "Lin, do you think the old lady doesn't understand anything, so you can fool around at will?"

Seeing that the old lady was angry, Aunt Lin immediately began to kowtow and kept begging for mercy: "Old lady calm down, I will never dare again in the future."

Seeing Aunt Lin like this, Yan Wenbin and Yan Yi both knelt down and pleaded for mercy.

Seeing them like this, Yan Zhigao was a little angry and a little distressed. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but say to the old lady, "Mother, don't be angry, I will talk about her well in the future."

Mrs. Yan glared at him fiercely: "You are a Zhizhou now, and the rules of the family can't be as loose as they used to be. You should stand up when you need to stand up. Don't be the same every day, but one person."

Yan Zhigao: "Mother said that my son will pay attention."

Mrs. Yan waved her hand: "Okay, let her go down. Looking at her appearance, those who don't know think that the old lady is a villain."

When Aunt Lin heard this, she immediately said, "Old lady, the concubine is wrong, please don't be angry, because the concubine's anger is ruined and it's not worth it." After speaking, she immediately looked at Daohua: "Miss, don't you either. I'm angry, I said something wrong, I'll go and apologize to Madam later."
