Chapter 36 People feel refreshed during happy events

Bai Ruozhu discussed it with her mother in the morning. Both of them felt that if Wang Caiyue took the initiative to express her feelings to her, she would definitely be able to persuade her parents to change their minds. However, after all, there was such a small episode between the two families, and there might be some grudges. , so if you really want to make this relationship a good one, you have to handle it well and not let the in-laws become enemies.

"Mom, don't you have any knots in your heart?" Bai Ruozhu asked her mother this morning.

Lin Ping'er sighed, "It's a lie to say that she doesn't have any lumps, but if Caiyue's child can do this, I won't have any grudges in my heart. If she can marry into our family, I will keep her as my own daughter." Just don't be jealous in the future." At the end of the sentence, Lin Ping'er even joked.

Bai Ruozhu laughed. Her mother was a sensible person and a good mother-in-law. As long as her mother was reasonable, this matter would be easy to handle.

Lin Ping'er thought about what her daughter had explained in the morning, and said to Mrs. Wang Su with a smile: "Look what you said, if someone has nothing urgent, just come back. I originally thought that I would talk to you about the appointment tomorrow. What about the matter? Otherwise, let’s just sum it up today?”

Seeing that the other party did not take Qiao, Wang Sushi directly talked about the appointment. She was more sure that the Bai family had no other ideas about the marriage. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt even more embarrassed towards the Bai family.

At this time, Bai Ruozhu came forward with a tray, handed two cups of tea to the two of them, and also placed a small plate of preserved apricots on the table.

"Aunt Wang, this is the scented tea I made by myself. Are you used to it after trying it?" Bai Ruozhu pointed to the preserved apricots on the table with a smile and said, "This is the preserved apricots that my little sister and I made together. , the green one is made of green apricots, which is more sour, and the yellow one is made of ripe apricots, which is a little sweeter. Do you think it tastes good? Send some back to Sister Caiyue to try later."

Wang Su hurriedly took a sip of tea. The tea was chrysanthemum tea. She drank it to reduce fire in the summer. It tasted slightly sweet and tasted better than plain water to quench her thirst. Wang Su felt that her throat, which was about to smoke, seemed to feel better. .

"This tea is really good. Ruozhu is smart. Caiyue will learn from you more in the future." Wangsu said politely, and curiously tasted the preserved apricots. She had never seen this before. I've seen it in big dry goods stores, but the merchants wouldn't buy it. This was the first time she tasted it. Well, it tasted really good. She thought it wouldn't be much worse than what was sold in dry goods stores.

Mrs. Wang Su couldn't help but glance at Bai Ruozhu again. How could such a clever girl be willing to be someone else's wife? She was so confused before that she believed that bullshit rumor! It's exactly what her daughter said: caring leads to chaos.

Also, she had been worried about the situation of the Bai family. Bai Ruozhu's husband Changsheng married into the Bai family. Originally, it was a good thing for the Bai family to have multiple labor forces, but according to the Bai family, life and death were unknown. Raise Bai Ruozhu for a lifetime. Her daughter married into the Bai family and became Bai Ruozhu's eldest sister-in-law. This burden would fall on her daughter's shoulders.

Moreover, the child in Bai Ruozhu's belly would have to feed one more person. She was really afraid that her daughter would suffer too much in the future.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt that her worries were unfounded. The daughter of the Bai family was so smart that she might be able to support herself. Even the preserved apricots she made could be sold at a good price. It would not be a problem to support her and her mother. .

As a result, Mrs. Wang Su felt more at ease and liked Bai Ruozhu even more. He kept asking her questions for a long time, and even told her many things to pay attention to when giving birth.

Bai Ruozhu studied medicine, how could she not understand these things, but they were kind-hearted, so she naturally smiled and nodded, and wrote them down one by one, knowing that it was not a bad thing to know the rules at this time.

Then Bai Ruozhu withdrew, leaving space for her mother and Wang Su. The two were going to discuss the betrothal gift, and it was not convenient for her to be there.

When Wang Su left, Bai Ruozhu stuffed a pack of preserved apricots into her hand and said with a smile: "Third Aunt, let Sister Caiyue try it and ask her to give me some pointers to see if the taste can be improved." .”

Wang Sushi didn't refuse, and said with a smile: "Your taste is comparable to that of a big dry goods store. There is no need to improve. We can eat such good food because of you."

"These are just snacks, and they can't be eaten as food. Third aunt, please don't laugh at me." Bai Ruozhu said a few polite words in a hurry.

Wang Su left happily, which was naturally seen by many people in the village. Soon, the rumors that the marriage between the Wang family and the Bai family were about to get dirty were disproven. In the following days, Lin Ping'er always had a smile on her face, and she began to work without touching the ground. The marriage of the eldest son's wife was a major event for the Bai family.

Bai Zehao continued to work in the fields, making tables and chairs with his father in his spare time. His carpentry skills were not as good as Bai Yihong's, but he was willing to work hard and learn a lot, which helped Bai Yihong a lot.

However, Bai Ruozhu could still see that her eldest brother was different from the past. His eyes were bright and his complexion was rosy, which really proved the saying: people are in high spirits during happy events.

Bai Ruozhu and Fang Guizhi began to work on the apricot preserves. The success of the apricot preserves made Fang Guizhi ecstatic. Bai Ruozhu reminded her several times before she restrained herself. Otherwise, her mother would find out the clues when she returned home.

The two of them only kept a little for themselves, mainly Bai Ruozhu for appetizers, and the rest planned to take it to the town and try to sell it. So the two made an appointment and planned to go to town together.

"You must not let your mother know. We will share the money from the sale equally. Your share will be kept for personal use and will be your dowry in the future." Bai Ruozhu felt sorry for Fang Guizhi and wanted to help her save some pretense. Maybe Fang Guizhi's marriage can help You have some right to make your own decisions.

"How can we split it equally? You came up with the idea. Even the ingredients for making preserved apricots were bought by you. If we split it equally, I would get a big advantage. No, no!" Fang Guizhi immediately waved her hands to object. She is an honest girl. I don’t want to take advantage of my friends.

"Then you have worked hard, otherwise I can't do anything with my body. If you are polite to me again, you won't treat me as a friend." Bai Ruozhu said pretending to be angry.

Fang Guizhi panicked when he saw it, and hurriedly pulled Bai Ruozhu's arm and said, "Ruozhu, don't be so angry, I'll just listen to you."

Bai Ruozhu laughed loudly, and Fang Guizhi finally realized, "Okay, you know how to scare me!" After saying that, she also laughed, and their laughter echoed in the Bai family yard, looking particularly carefree. No worries.

Finally, on the day they agreed on, Fang Guizhi came over with a grimace and said, "Ruozhu, I can't go. My mother said she would break my legs if I couldn't make it home today."

Bai Ruozhu took a closer look and saw that one side of Fang Guizhi's face was slightly swollen, and there were faint traces of five fingerprints.
