Chapter 415: When the water comes, the canal will be completed!

Of course, if Zhao Yuru particularly likes this daughter-in-law, she can also pay for more from her own pocket, such as four sets of head and face jewelry.

However, in order to make up for Jia Huan's improper behavior, the family had already added half of the book collection to the betrothal gift. The Peng family was satisfied enough, and Zhao Yuru did not add anything more.

The couple had already planned to find a way to compensate their family if they earned more money in the future.

After all, the collection of books belongs to the public and cannot be given away just because of family fun and getting into trouble.

I have to say that the life of the Li family has improved, the brothers are still united, and the sisters-in-law are close to each other. The big reason is this self-awareness.

There is nothing that should be deserved in this world. It’s all about you being good to me, and me being good to you, understanding each other, and supporting each other to move forward together!

Mr. Wen, a great matchmaker, was the first to arrive in Luo'an, followed closely by Li Zhensheng, Li Laoer, the village chief, and the newly dressed family, and finally Liu Zhiheng and his wife.

Tao Hongying will be in charge of the restaurant, and Li Laosi will not be able to come back from the dock military camp.

So, this is the lineup for today’s recruitment.

Although Li Laosan does not have an official position and Jiahuan is also a cook, the old lady is a first-class official, Li Laoer is an earl, and the princess Jiayin personally goes to the Peng family to recruit wives. This is enough to show that the Li family is marrying a daughter-in-law. son's sincerity.

With Liu Zhiheng and his wife as guests, the arrangements were even more thoughtful.

Everyone went directly to the entrance of the academy. They originally thought that Butler Peng would greet them, but they did not expect that Mr. Peng was waiting here in person. This was also a sign of the importance of the Li family.

In this way, the two families respect each other and are affectionate, which is naturally a good thing.

Mr. Peng invited two gentlemen from the academy and Dean Zhou to accompany him. Mrs. Zhou also accompanied Wenjuan in the backyard.

Everyone exchanged pleasantries, and the betrothal gift was carried through the door. After a brief look, Mr. Peng was very satisfied.

Especially the collection of two hundred books, which made him, Dean Zhou and others’ eyes shine.

Mr. Wen received the red envelope from the matchmaker and joked that he had become rich. He would match more young men from the Li family in the future, and maybe he would become rich just by receiving the red envelope.

Everyone was laughing so hard that the courtyard became more lively.

Since the Peng family was not the matron, the betrothal gift and betrothal gift list were carried to the backyard and handed over directly to Wenjuan.

Wenjuan blushed and returned four gifts, including needlework, clothes, shoes and socks for her family.

Her craftsmanship is very good and she is really attentive, which makes everyone praise her.

At noon, the Peng family prepared two banquet tables. After everyone had eaten, they left, waiting for the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month when the Li family came to marry their grandson's wife.

Jiaren and other boys were waiting in the shop to see how Xiapin was doing.

Seeing that there were classes in the academy and their family members hadn’t come back yet, they were all a little anxious.

After finally picking up the family members, Brother Cat and Brother Li started laughing and making fun around the house.

“Brother, have you decided on a daughter-in-law? We are going to have a sister-in-law, right?”

Jia Huan was always honest, but now his face was red with embarrassment and he couldn't say a word.

The old lady quickly patted her two little grandsons and scolded, "Don't make trouble with your brother, be careful your brother doesn't make delicious food for you in the future!"

“Yeah, hurry up and go to class! Children, stop inquiring about family affairs!” Li Zhensheng also chased his son away.

The boys then ran towards the academy gate with smiles on their faces. Jia An and Jia Xi didn’t forget to make faces at their brother, which made Jia Huan almost bury her head in her collar.

Jiaren patted his younger brother on the shoulder, both to comfort and to congratulate him, then said goodbye to his family, turned around and chased his brothers into the academy.

"It's really difficult for Jiaren. I have to study every day and take care of so many naughty brothers!" Li Zhensheng said with a smile, "Especially Brother Li and Brother Cat, I'm afraid they are the most worrying. I'll see you again tomorrow." Pens, I must buy more to reward my eldest nephew.”

Li Laoer quickly waved his hand, "Don't waste that money. Jiaren is the elder brother, and he should take care of his younger brother."

“Okay, brother, don’t be polite, let’s pack up and go home.” The old lady was thinking about home. If it weren’t for her grandson, she would not have been able to leave for several days. The thought of her home being empty and unattended made her feel like she was on fire.

Jiayin also had enough fun and missed home very much, so she hugged her grandma’s lap and shouted, “Grandma is coming home. Fu Niuer is also homesick.”

“Okay, let’s go home, go home immediately!” The old lady hugged her granddaughter and shouted to Grandma He, Dongmei and others to get busy immediately.

Less than a quarter of an hour, several carriages left the town of Luoan...

Last time I was in such a hurry that I didn’t even have the chance to go to my uncle’s restaurant.

This time she took the opportunity to pick up her mother, and she made up her mind to take a good look.

At lunchtime, the Cyclamen restaurant was almost full.

Jia Huan went back to work again, and was only supported by Tao Hongying and two chefs. One of them specialized in seafood, and the work was really heavy.

It was now past the peak period, so Tao Hongying rarely sat under the eaves of the verandah to enjoy the wind and rest for a while.

As a result, the whole family came back.

Jiayin ran all the way, rushed into her mother's arms, and shouted with a smile, "Mom, Fu Niu'er is back, Fu Niu'er misses you!"

Tao Hongying was so pleasantly surprised that she held her daughter in her arms and kissed her several times, "You little girl, you still know how to come back! Mom thought you ate too many sticky cakes in Luo'an and got stuck!"

Jiayin hugged my mother’s neck and giggled, quickly flattering me, “The sticky cake is not as delicious as my mother’s cooking!”

“Look at how stupid you are!” Tao Hongying kissed her daughter again in disgust, “If you want to eat, Mom will cook it for you.”

"Don't let her eat!" The old lady came in and stopped her quickly, "We were at Peng's house at noon, and this girl didn't eat enough, and her belly is bulging. She can't eat anymore, be careful to accumulate food."

Hearing this, Tao Hongying hugged her daughter, rubbed her belly, and talked to her mother-in-law about the betrothal.

The nephew and daughter -in -law are going to marry the door. She hasn't had a chance to see what it looks like.

The old lady also laughed when she said it.

Both families are satisfied with this marriage, and the appointment is just a formality. There is nothing wrong with it.

Jiayin was worried about hanging out in a restaurant, so he finally caught the opportunity, so he dragged his mother to the front.

At this moment, it is already mid-afternoon, and there are the fewest guests in the building.

While the boys were busy cleaning and wiping, Tao Hongying hugged her daughter and helped her mother-in-law up to the third floor.

The third floor is much more luxurious than the first and second floors, especially the innermost box, which is luxurious and grand. The walls are hung with paintings and calligraphy, adding to the scholarly atmosphere.

The good news ran around the house, and I was extremely satisfied.

“Mom, I will sell new vegetables here from now on!”

It happened that Li Zhensheng came up shortly after, and when he heard this, he hugged his little niece and said, "It's rare that our lucky girl likes it, so I will set aside this room to make private dishes for your mother."

After saying that, he announced the good news to the old lady, "Mom, I have ordered a table of sixty-six taels of silver for my sister-in-law's private kitchen. Someone has already paid. The first table will be in five days."

“Seriously?” The old lady was happy for her daughter-in-law and said with a smile, “This is great, Hongying has a place to show off her talents!”

“Oh, grandma! The table, let the third uncle hit the table quickly!” Jiayin clapped her hands anxiously, making everyone confused.

The old lady said, "This girl is naughty. In the past few days, she has been pestering the third child to make a new table. She even drew pictures. It's mysterious. The boss remembers to send someone to Luo'an to deliver another letter to see if the third child can do it. Work quickly!"

After saying that, she patted her granddaughter again and said angrily, "You really found a good job for your third uncle!"
