Chapter 555 Thinking about adding makeup

Erya and Sanya were overjoyed, "Thank you, Dad, we are also blessed with my grandma's happiness. When the grandma gets married, we can also wear silver hairpins to make her look longer...hehe."

Not to mention how happy you are!

In the past, I couldn't even get enough to eat. After eating one meal, I was worried about the next.

Now there is a life that can wear a silver hairpin. People say that wearing gold and wearing silver, wearing gold and wearing silver, these silver hairpins are all worn, and the hope of wearing gold is not far away.

These good days were brought by my old lady. By following my old lady, I not only had meat to eat, but also silver hairpins to wear.

Beautiful.

Xu Laosan is currently a widower and has no one to discuss with.

In addition, after the family dividend meeting, I immediately rushed to the county liquor store.

Along the way, he sat in the carriage soliciting customers and thought about adding makeup.

To be honest, he had never thought about the old girl's makeup when he was at Cai's house, and he didn't dare to think about it.

The situation was different now. He was free and had more work to do. He started thinking about this issue in advance.

No need for Xu Zhang to remind him, he was already ready.

When the old girl lacks nothing, all she lacks is a matter of mind.

Xu Laosan himself didn't have any special skills. After much thought, he decided that he would do it himself.

He can knit and his skills are pretty good.

If there are bamboos, vines and other things to weave, it will be fine in ordinary times. My sister doesn't care about this important matter of getting married. If others look at it, they will despise him and embarrass my sister. That's not okay.

Xu Laosan decided to use relatively valuable hemp silk thread and old rattan to weave several large boxes for his sister. They were used to store clothes and sundries. The inside of the box was wrapped in fine silk and the outside was used.

Hemp silk thread and old vines are soaked in traditional Chinese medicine, which is strong and durable in keeping out moisture and dust, and can also repel insects.

During this period of time, he was in the county town, and all the necessary materials had been bought. The flax thread and old vines were soaked in the medicinal soup, and he could start working after taking them out to dry in the sun.

Three or five large boxes are enough.

The old girl just doesn’t have so many things to pack now. When she gives birth to a child in the future, the child’s things take up the most space and need to be packed away without fear of not being able to use them.

Xu Laowu has always been a bold and careful person, but this time he was really busy and dizzy.

He almost forgot about adding makeup if it wasn't for Mrs. Xu Zhang's reminder.

After sighing for a moment, before I knew it, the old girl would grow up and get married.

When he was a child, he and his sister had the least dealings with each other, and he couldn't get used to her being lazy and arrogant. Who knew that the older she got, the more impressed he became, and now, he has become her loyal fan inexplicably.

He had never thought of these before.

It's not his fault, it's really because the difference between the old girl and the old girl is too big. The girl has changed in her eighteenth year. It's true.

As a result, Lao Wu often reflected on himself, whether he was too unloving and intolerant to his sister in the past. As soon as he reflected on it, he wanted to make up for it. He must not be careless about adding makeup this time.

It's just that he, the fifth brother, really doesn't have much ability and can't afford to give away gold, silver and jewelry. If he could, he would give everything to his old sister.

When Xu Laowu was frowning and thinking about what to do, Duan Hongmei came over to help him.

"What's wrong with you? What's on your mind?"

Duan Hongmei knew Xu Laowu well. Xu Laowu would notice her and turn around to look at her before she came closer.

Today, she walked in front of him, but he hadn't noticed her yet.

When Xu Laowu saw that it was Duan Hongmei, he didn't hide anything from her and said what he was thinking.

"I'm a big old man. I don't know what makeup I should give my little sister. Please think about what I should give her to add makeup."

Duan Hongmei is a real person, "If you don't know what to add to the makeup, then just follow the traditional rules. In the countryside, we usually have a meaning when marrying our daughter to add a makeup, but our ancestors also have traditions. Depending on how much money you can get, you will be ranked according to your level.

Let’s straighten it out.”

Xu Laowu suddenly became shy, "I don't have much silver on hand... The wages my masters gave me and the wages my sister gave me were all given to my mother for safekeeping."

Duan Hongmei burst out laughing, "Then what else do you want to give me as a gift? Why don't you burn the most beautiful and beautiful tea set for Jiaojiao? If you don't have money, spend more time!"

Suddenly, Xu Laowu’s eyes lit up!

"Zhong, I will make tea sets for my little sister. Not only do I make tea sets, I also make white porcelain bowls, a set of bowls and plates, new plates and so on."

Duan Hongmei added, "Yes, you can also write on it, auspicious words such as a century-old marriage, a match made in heaven, a long life together, a precious son early, flowers and a full moon. Safekeeping is the only thing in the world, and there is no other. It looks good.

It’s also rare, not to mention our farmers, even if I use it in the city in the future, it will be generous and will not lose face.”

These words made Xu Laowu seem to have opened the door to a new world, and he responded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, you are still smart, Hongmei. How come you are so smart, Hongmei?"

Duan Hongmei looked at him and smiled as if he was mentally retarded. Her fiancé must be a fool!

He turned his head and turned away from him in embarrassment.

Two days later, Liao Qing delivered the dowry furniture.

He built them all by himself, without spending any money. The wood was all good wood he chopped in the mountains and dried in the sun.

There is a big new bed that looks very sturdy and has patterns carved on it.

A dressing table, several chests of drawers, and several large screens.

They are all made by himself. Although they are not particularly exquisite, they still look decent and have their own characteristics. They are simple, elegant and wear-resistant.

Lao Xu’s family praised him.

Everything Liao Qing makes is customized according to the size of the new house. When placed in the house, everything is just right and very suitable.

When the new house was first built, there was no furniture at all. All the furniture was moved directly from the old house.

The set of Eight Immortals tables and chairs sent by the He family are placed in the central hall. There are no people living in the other rooms, and Xu Jiaojiao has not arranged furniture or anything. Liao Qing has noticed this, and now he has made up for it one by one.

Xu Jiaojiao was very curious. This guy had many things to do and was very busy all day long. When did he make these furniture?

Seeing how every piece of furniture was placed just right, I felt that this guy was really shady. He planned everything in his mind and did it all without even telling her.

It is a pleasure to decorate your own house with furniture by yourself.

Soon, the wedding day came.

The ninth day of September is the Double Ninth Festival.

On the big day, Lao Xu's house was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and guests gathered.
