Ye Congwen was stunned by the question, Lin Xiaoyu was indeed a little less beautiful than Yu Yueyue. Otherwise, how could the title of the most beautiful woman in Wanquan County fall on Yu Yueyue's head, but I feel that the two are of different types, and each is good at winning.

Seeing Ye Congwen's hesitation, Wood Bean Sprout instantly understood that Miss Lin was also very pretty, so she couldn't help but sarcastically said:

"Let me just say, if she wasn't pretty, some people wouldn't be able to act as flower protectors for her, and even fight with others! Brother Cong Wen, this Miss Yu is beautiful, and Miss Lin is also beautiful, which one are you going to choose to be me?" Sister-in-law?"

This woman's focus is different. When she comes here, she only cares about Eight Trigrams and other gossip, and she doesn't care about how I am doing in the apprentice camp or whether I am being bullied. Can't help but teach:

"You spent an afternoon on the boat from Brother Wen and bought new year's goods all morning. You don't care if I'm hungry or not. I was going to give you a gift. If I had known you were so heartless, I wouldn't have It should be a waste of money!"

When Wood Bean Sprout heard that there was a gift to give, he immediately turned from sadness to joy, looked around, and finally saw Ye Congwen carrying a big bag, smiled and said:

"Brother, what good gift did you bring Little Sister?"

Ye Congwen saw that the wooden bean sprouts are more beautiful than before, and they have indeed grown up. However, the speed of this face change is still as fast as before, just like a three-year-old child.

"You didn't take a bite of the hot rice, and you just wanted to ask for a gift. Are you too straightforward?"

The two were noisy, and within a few minutes they arrived at Dal Bean Sprout's house. Wood Bean Sprout's father had a leg problem and staggered and limped when walking. The mother dragged the three together, holding the youngest son in her arms, followed by two slugs.

"Aunt and uncle, happy Chinese New Year!"

Ye Congwen made a direct call from afar, and he didn't have much contact with cousins ​​and uncles of the Mu clan in the past, mainly because the old patriarch didn't want him to follow his father's old path. And the people of the Mu clan also knew Ye Congwen's difficulties, so they didn't care too much about it.

Hearing that Ye Congwen was back today, I also wanted to see my cousin's orphan and ask him how he was doing outside.

"Xiao Congwen is back? You have changed a lot! If we meet outside, I really dare not recognize each other!"

Wood Bean Sprout's mother said in surprise that after not seeing her for half a year, Ye Congwen has grown a lot taller, with a well-proportioned figure and full of energy, and even her skin is much whiter than before. Compared with the dark and thin melancholy boy before, it was like a different person.

"It's not so exaggerated, that is, it's a little taller, and it's still the same. I bought a lot of new year's goods and came back. Someone will send things over later, so you hurry up and make room for them to put things."

"Okay, okay, I'll go and clean up now, let the wooden bean sprouts take you in to warm up first, and I'll come as soon as I go."

Mu Bean Sprout's father walked slowly to the side room to pack up his things, and Mu Bean Sprout took Ye Congwen into the back room, and gave instructions with a smile:

"Brother Cong Wen, warm up the fire first, I'll serve the dishes, and we'll have something to eat later!"

Ye Congwen sat down around the stove, and several little girls with shofar braids kept looking at the own bag. Ye Congwen knew that the child wanted candy, but unfortunately he didn't bring it with him, so he could only comfort him:

"Don't be impatient, someone will send candies over later, this time they are some high-quality hard candies, keep them for you to eat until next summer."

It didn't take long for the wooden bean sprouts to arrange the meals, and the whole family gathered around the stove to prepare.

meal. Ye Congwen took out a handful of silver coins from his pocket, distributed two silver coins to everyone present, and said with a smile:

"The new year is coming soon. I will give everyone some New Year's money in advance. Good things come in pairs. Don't be disgusted."

This frightened the father and wife. There are six or seven members of the Mu family, two silver coins per person, that is a huge sum of money! Ye Congwen is a widow and will marry a wife and have children in the future. How can he be so extravagant?

Wood Bean Sprout's father said in a bad tone:

"Xiao Congwen, I'm not talking about you as an uncle. After the new year, you will be sixteen years old. It's time to think about lifelong affairs. It takes at least a few gold coins to marry a daughter-in-law these days. You should also tighten your fingers and save more money. , for future use."

"It's okay, it's okay! There are still four or five years before the marriageable age! Let me tell you a little secret, I won the championship this time, and the apprentice camp rewarded me with a dozen gold bars! To tell the truth, I have already saved ten gold bars As a betrothal gift, there is definitely no problem in marrying a daughter-in-law.

Think about it, I save ten gold bars a year, and in another four or five years, I can at least be the richest man in Qingshan Town, and even going to the county town to buy a single house will not be a problem!

You just put away the money, otherwise I would be ashamed to eat here. "

Ye Congwen made it up casually, and the wooden bean sprouts on the side were full of joy, and a pair of brilliant eyes kept looking at Ye Congwen.

Ye Congwen saw that there seemed to be stars twinkling in the eyes of the wooden bean sprouts, and immediately took out the two sets of Jinghongfang clothes from the bag, and handed them to the wooden bean sprouts with a smile:

"I bought two sets of clothes for you, go try them on and see if they fit."

Dalma took the clothes with a smile on his face, ran into the room and was ready to try them on.

Ye Congwen chatted and ate casually with Dal's parents, and within a few minutes, he saw Dak Tingting come out. The gorgeous silk and satin looked radiant under the refraction of the fire, and matched with Dak's slim figure, pure white The supple face can be said to be more delicate than a flower, full of brilliance.

"The clothes are quite expensive, Xiao Congwen, how much did you pay for them?"

Wood Bean Sprout's mother saw the extraordinary clothes at a glance, and she had only seen them on the ladies and wives of wealthy families in the county.

"I asked an acquaintance to make it through my relationship, and it only cost two silver coins for the fabric. I will buy a few hundred pieces of this fabric this time. When the silk fabric is available, I will make a set of New Year's wear for each of the Little Sister Little Brothers." Bar."

Ye Congwen replied casually, Jinghongfang's clothes are naturally good-looking, and four sets of clothes cost him a gold bar. It would be strange if they were not good-looking.

But you can't tell Mudou Sprout's parents about this. If you spend five gold coins to buy two sets of clothes, you're afraid you'll be scolded again.

Wood Bean Sprout got new clothes, and he was in a good mood, so he didn't care about other things anymore. He continued to add food and wine to Ye Congwen, and Ye Congwen told everyone some interesting things about Lizhou Prefecture, and it got dark before he knew it.

After resigning from Mu's house, Ye Congwen and Mu Bean sprouts lit a torch and walked towards their own house. Mu Bean sprouts was bouncing around in new clothes, and he was in a really good mood.

The two returned to Ye Congwen's house talking and laughing. Wood Bean Sprout took out the key to open the door, lit the oil lamp at home, turned around and went to the kitchen to boil water.

Ye Congwen put down his luggage, walked around the house, and found that the inside was clean, and there was not even a speck of dust on the tables and chairs. It seemed that the little girl of Mudou Sprout was not lazy, so she immediately laughed and joked:

"My five gold coins are not in vain,

Xiao Nizi is very diligent. "

Wood Bean Sprout started the fire carefully, for fear of soiling the new clothes, when Ye Congwen suddenly heard that the two sets of clothes cost five gold coins, he stood up immediately in fright, and asked in shock:

"You mean I spent five gold coins for these two sets of clothes?"

Seeing Ye Congwen nodded and said nothing, he immediately blamed:

"You are such a prodigal! Five gold coins are enough for my family of six to spend for a year, but you only bought two clothes with it. Which shop did you buy it from? Return it tomorrow. To be clear is to bully you for not knowing the market."

"It's fine to wear clothes that fit you! I've bought everything, what can I return? The clothes in their store are all at this price, and there is no cheating."

"Which shop did you buy it from? It's so expensive?"

Wood Bean Sprout asked in confusion, there are many expensive shops in the county town, and the things sold in them are very expensive. Last year, I went to the big sister's house to pay New Year's greetings. The big sister took me around the county town. There was a dress called Jinghongfang that was ridiculously expensive!

"What is it called Jinghongfang? Yu Yueyue and the others often customize clothes in it. I think their clothes are of good style and fabric, so I bought a few. Take a closer look at this one of mine. I've been wearing it for half a year, and it still looks the same As new, the quality is guaranteed.”

Ye Congwen approves of Jinghongfang's clothes, after all, he has worn them for more than half a year, so it can be regarded as speaking from experience.

"It's really Jinghongfang's clothes."

Wood Bean Sprout walked into Ye Congwen's side and took a look, only to find that Ye Congwen's scarlet round-neck gown was quite nice. No wonder why Ye Congwen had become handsome before, it turned out to be blessed by famous brand clothes.

It's just that Ye Congwen's habit of being extravagant has to be changed, otherwise he will suffer a big loss sooner or later, and he tried to persuade:

"How can we compare with Miss Yu's mansion? Others have a big business, and they buy gold and silver jewelry in boxes. If we don't work for a day, we even have problems eating. We are as messy as you, your ten How many days can a gold bar take?

By the way, you said that you secretly saved ten gold bars, I think you are trying to fill your face with fatty, are you capable of counting them for me? "

Ye Congwen knew that Dung Bean Sprout was stubborn, so he would not give up until he achieved his goal. I had no choice but to take out the bag of gold coins and bars, and put them gently on the table for her to have a good look at them.

Wood bean sprouts dubiously picked up the money bag, and poured it carefully on the table. The first thing that catches the eye are eight gold bars as thick as thumbs, dozens of yellow gold coins, and a large handful of white silver coins.

The wooden bean sprouts counted several times, his face became relieved, and he asked slightly dissatisfied:

"Didn't you say ten gold bars, why are there only eight?"

"Isn't this exchanged for change? When you buy things in the county town, how can others find you with gold bars?"

Ye Congwen secretly admired Yu Yueyue's delicate thoughts. Fortunately, she had prepared a large bag of gold and silver coins for herself, otherwise she would not be able to justify herself.

"I put so much money in such a cloth bag. What if a hole is broken or a thief walks away? You are careless and careless. You can only bring some silver coins and copper plates with you. I will help you use the box for gold bars and gold coins." Pack it up and lock it in that wooden box."

Wood bean sprouts did what they said, regardless of whether Ye Congwen agreed or not, ran to the room and took out a wooden box, and neatly arranged the classification codes of the gold bars, gold coins and silver coins, leaving only a few silver coins for Ye Congwen.
