The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 94: Mid-autumn night



Chapter 94 Mid-Autumn Night

Night is coming quietly, and a bright moon hangs high in the blue sky, emitting a bright light. Everything seems to be shrouded in a white veil, adding to the sense of mystery. The sky was extremely quiet, and the twinkling stars added infinite vitality to the sky.

Cheng Yingzhen and her two children were setting up the table to worship the moon. Fruits and pastries were arranged in order, an incense burner was placed in the middle, and incense was lit. The mother and daughter piously and respectfully picked up three pillars and bowed three times to the moon.

Su Yanli set off firecrackers and fireworks, and in an instant, the quiet courtyard suddenly became lively.

In the corridor, Shutong, Dong's mother, and Xianggui leaned against the pillars and watched the master's family worship the moon.

 The moon has conveyed longing, beauty and tranquility since ancient times. The faint moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival can bring comfort to people, and it also records the joys and sorrows of many people.

Shu Tong is in love and looks like he wants to find Mrs. Lu right now. Dong’s mother and Xiang Gui are both poor people. Although they recall the past with emotion, they no longer rely on family members and men to create with their own hands. Live a happy life, the people and things that hurt them have long faded out of life, and now they feel extremely peaceful.

After the fireworks and firecrackers were set off, Shutong and Xianggui went to carry the table and put it in the patio to prepare for dinner.

Su Sanlang was not in the mood to eat. He took the rabbit lantern bought by his father and was about to run out to compete with the children in the alley when he was stopped by Su Dalang: "Eat first. After you finish eating, my brother will take you to play."

Su Sanlang still wanted to break away, but Su Ruojin glared at him when he came out with chopsticks, "If you don't obey, your rabbit lantern will be confiscated."

A sister is a big talker at home. Su Sanlang was instantly deflated, and came to the table listlessly with his small mouth puffed out, "Then you guys hurry up and eat."

"Yes, sir." Shutong jumped up and ran away happily.

Su Ruojin glared at him again, "Spank him if he disobeys."

Shu Tong was not in the mood to drink and dine, so he made an excuse to go see Shopkeeper Huang and Hua Ping in the shop. Su Yanli looked at the boy who had been with him for many years, and couldn't stop his expression of spring. He suppressed his smile and nodded. ,"come back earlier."

Su Ruojin chuckled.

Su Ruojin also gave Dong’s mother and Xiang Gui a day off. The two refused to take a break and insisted on continuing the business. As an owner, of course, they are happy to continue the business, but they will not exploit their employees and will increase their monthly salary.

Su Yanli laughed, shook his head, stretched out his hands to lift San'er onto the stool, "When you're full, your sister will naturally go out with you to play."

The three members of Dashi's family returned to their hometown two days ago. On the day of their reunion, the Su family gave them seven days' leave. Originally, Xianggui was asked to go back as well. She said that since she sold herself to her master, she no longer had a family. From now on, Su family.

A sister is really fierce and knows how to beat people. Su Sanlang pursed his lips in grievance.

 Little brat? Su Yanli smiled. He was so young, but he already despised his younger brother. He reached out and patted the top of his daughter's fluffy hair, "You are as big as a kid."

On the night of reunion, everyone gathered around a big round table, regardless of master or servant. No matter men or women, everyone prepared drinks and ate while admiring the moon. It was a rare moment of leisure.

Mother Dong is too old to eat and drink, so she goes to the kitchen to get bowls and no longer serves the food.

Today is the night of reunion, and the table is full of dishes. How can we eat quickly?

Before he was halfway through eating, Su Sanlang slipped off the table and dragged his big rabbit lantern to the alley to fight with his friends. Brother Su Dalang and Su Ruojin were worried, so they each took one to play in the alley.

“She thinks we are little brats.” Su Sanlang took the opportunity to sue his sister.

Xianggui and Mao Ya looked at each other. One went to the kitchen to accompany Mother Dong, and the other went outside to follow the young master.

Finally, at the big table, Yu Su Yanli and his wife sat next to each other. The couple was very interesting and even poured wine for each other. "My wife has worked hard this year. I'd like to toast my husband to my wife."

Cheng Yingzhen glared at him, "The hardest thing is your daughter Ajin." "Isn't she your daughter?"

 Of course so.

 Cheng Yingzhen smiled and said, "Then thank the officials for their good teaching."

Su Yanli did not dare to take the credit. "The daughter you gave birth to is smart and studious. She loves to read and ponder all kinds of books. Even I also like to read Minsheng Yao Ji and Tiangong Ji..."

Su Ruojin suddenly sneezed. Who is saying bad things about her? The alley was very lively, and even Xue Wulang, who was usually upright, became much more lively and even brought cheese cakes to the Su brothers and sisters.

Cheese is not easy to come by. Su Ruojin asked him where it came from. Xue Wulang said that it was a gift given to his father by others.

oh! The person who could give a gift to Mr.

Shutong rode a little donkey and galloped all the way. Since he came out with the excuse that the flowers were flat, of course he had to go to the shop to have a look. It turned out that the shop was dark and there was no one inside at all. Could it be that they had gone shopping?

Since he was not here, there was no need to delay his meeting with the beautiful woman. He happily patted the little donkey and headed to the appointed street intersection.

The Lu family's life has improved due to the barbecue business. Lu Dani, who used to be dressed in dust, is wearing a new set of clothes today, wearing a beaded flower sent by her sweetheart, and is standing at the entrance of the alley in a pretty way, waiting for someone to come.

 On one hand, I was worried and on the other hand, I couldn’t help but feel happy.

"Ani..." A call made Ludani raise her head. Shutong's body was bright, fair and fresh. Compared with her contemporaries, she looked very young and did not look like she was twenty-eight years old.

Once she saw that she was her sweetheart, Lu Dani blushed and responded in a low voice, "Brother Su."

Shu Tong's face was also slightly red, but he was a man and had to take the initiative. "It's been a long time."

"no no…"

 “Whatever do you want to eat, I’ll treat you to it.”

Shu Tong led people to the street, chatting as they walked, and finally went to a restaurant to eat rice dumplings and went shopping. When he saw a beautiful hairpin, he wanted to stop and buy it for her, but Lu Dani stopped him and said, "Su Brother has already given me flowers."

The pearl flowers on her hair were a gift from Mrs. Fan. Su Ruojin picked a pair and sent them to her sweetheart.

The things Fan's house sent were definitely not bad. Lu's mother asked others and heard that they cost a few taels less. She was so happy that she almost shouted so that everyone in the world knew that her daughter had married a rich man.

The book is not necessarily bought: "That is the second lady's wish, and tonight is my wish."

 “Your master is so kind.”

The original owner of Lu Dani admired Su Ruojin, and now that she is so willing to give herself such a precious thing, she is even more pleased with her.

"Of course." The young master raised him by himself, and Shu Tong said proudly, "Our wife and second wife have said that we are busy these two days during the Mid-Autumn Festival. In a few days, we will invite a matchmaker to come to your house to propose marriage and discuss our marriage. Things."

Ah, is it so fast? Ludani was surprised and a little embarrassed.
