The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 114 Second Sister Reappears
A middle-aged woman walked up to Han Qianluo's stall with a basket, and handed her a small clay pot: "Weigh five catties of oil for me."

"Okay." Han Qianluo took the pot and quickly handed the oil to her.

This middle-aged woman is already a regular customer here, so she paid the money without Han Qianluo's words, but she didn't leave immediately, but stood here chatting: "Miss Han, you haven't saluted yet, have you? "

"Not yet, but he will be 15 years old this year." Han Qianluo also casually chatted with her.

"You are already so powerful at such a young age. If only you were my daughter." The middle-aged woman sighed, looking very sincere, it seemed to be sincere, not like polite words.

But no matter if it was sincere or what, Han Qianluo just smiled and said politely: "Auntie is really joking, girls still need to be good at needlework, what good can someone like me do. "

Of course, these words are definitely just polite words. In fact, what Han Qianluo thought in his heart was: no matter how good the needlework is, what is the use?

"Don't think that way. Making money is a good thing after all. How many people want to make money but still can't make it." The middle-aged woman persuaded, then remembered something, sighed and said: "If my girl is like you It's good if you can do it, and you won't be so angry at your in-law's house now."

In fact, Han Qianluo didn't care about her daughter at all, but she still went along with the words: "What's wrong?"

"Ah!" The middle-aged woman sighed with a bitter look on her face.

Han Qianluo covered the mouth of the soy sauce clay pot: "Did you get bullied by your mother-in-law?" The first thing she thought of was the dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and she only thought of this point. Various literary works constantly focus on this point Make a fuss.

At this time, someone came to buy things again, and the middle-aged woman quickly stood aside, waiting until the person finished selling the goods and left before continuing, "That's not right, they have separated."

"What's the problem?" Han Qianluo was a little puzzled. Didn't he only get bullied when the family was not separated? Now that the family is separated, there can be any problems.

"My girl is very good at needlework and weaves cloth well. Back then, there were countless people who came to ask for marriage from all over the world. She chose this family after thousands of choices. It looked good back then. One family." The middle-aged woman stopped here.

Han Qianluo didn't interrupt, and continued to wait for the woman to continue. Sure enough, after a while, he heard the continuation: "That family also opened a shop, and the family had a lot of money back then. I thought that such a family would definitely not suffer. , I didn’t expect that man to be a businessman, and after the separation, he started his own business, and his business got worse and worse.”

"That man is not a good guy. He doesn't know how to do business, so he blamed my daughter, saying that my daughter can't help at all, so his business is getting worse and worse." The middle-aged woman said. Very angry here.

Han Qianluo also quickly persuaded: "Auntie, don't be angry, there is a process of getting familiar with everything, and it will gradually get better in the future. When the business improves in the future, your daughter's good days will come."

"I hope." The middle-aged woman sighed a little disappointed, "I have to go shopping for other things, so I'm leaving first."

After the middle-aged woman left, Han Qianluo continued to sell things by herself. When it was almost noon, there were almost no people in the market. Han Qianluo packed up the things and put them behind the shop counter. Bu Gai said: "Sister Tao, you go back."

"Okay, I'll go back." After saying that, Tao Shi left in a hurry.

After Dow left, Han Qianluo was also ready to have lunch. What she ate could be said to be dry food, which was baked pancakes in the morning. Fortunately, it was not winter, so the cold pancakes were not too unpalatable, served with some tea , quickly finished eating.

Han Qianluo had just finished eating the pancakes when he saw a young girl walking in. Just now she raised her smiling face and was about to ask what to buy, but after seeing the young girl's appearance clearly, she couldn't smile anymore.

The girl who walked in just said, "I..." After seeing clearly that it was Han Qianluo, her face collapsed immediately, and she froze in place, as if she was hesitating whether to come in or go out, but she just hesitated After a while, he walked over: "The young master asked me to buy paper, but I didn't expect it to be the shop opened by you, Sanmei."

Han Shui'er's voice is still the same as before, with a soft tone, but her appearance has changed a lot from before. She is wearing water green clothes, her face is covered with rouge and gouache, and the hairpins on her head are much bigger. , which is why Han Qianluo didn't recognize it at first.

Seeing her smiling as if nothing had happened, Han Qianshi really felt a little uncomfortable, but she said that she would not hit smiling faces, so she could only suppress her discomfort and said politely: "Second sister, how much do you want to buy?"

"Three hundred." Han Shui'er said softly.

Without saying a word, Han Qianluo counted three hundred pieces of paper and handed them to her seriously: "Three hundred Wen."

"I see." Han Shui'er took the papers, took out a bunch of money and threw them to her, "Sister, count them."

Looking at her appearance, Han Qianluo knew that there must be only a lot of money here, and there was no need to count it in front of her to make people uncomfortable and offend others, so she simply put away the money and pretended to He said very politely: "No need, you are my second sister, can you still lose me for this little money?"

"The young master is still waiting for me to go back. I'll go first." After finishing speaking, Han Shui'er held her head up and walked out with some pride.Looking at the back of her leaving, Han Qianluo let out a "tss" in his heart, disapproving.

During dinner at night, Han Qianluo thought of this incident and said casually, "Brother, I saw my second sister today."

"Shui'er?" Han Qingquan froze for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Where did you see her, how is she doing now, is she doing well?"

Seeing his elder brother's anxious look, Han Qianluo realized that although he hadn't talked about it in the past two years, he was still very worried and missed him, but he didn't show it, but he could understand it when he thought about it. , and did not do any heinous things, I will definitely still care about it.

"The second sister came to the shop today to help her young master buy paper. I think she looks pretty good, much better than when she was at home. The clothes on her body are very good, and the headdress on her head is not something that ordinary maids can wear. , It is indeed much better than at home." Han Qianluo said nicely.

After hearing this, Han Qingquan seemed to be greatly relieved, and said in a low voice, "That's good." He didn't say anything else.

"Will the second sister come back?" Han Sanwei asked suddenly.

These words made the family quiet all of a sudden, and no one spoke for a while. As for Pan Song, it was because he didn't understand the matter anymore, and it didn't matter to him, so naturally he didn't speak.

After a while, Han Qianluo said: "If nothing happens, I'm afraid I won't come back, and there's no need to come back. That's the life she wants."

"Since she lives well, let's stop talking and let's eat quickly." Han Qingquan said.

Liu Linchu also quickly said: "By the way, Qingquan, when is your marriage with Miss Li, has it been settled?"

"I found someone to check the days of the money. The ninth day of May is a good day, so it will be on that day." Han Qingquan replied.

Liu Linchu thought for a while: "It's only been two months."

"Yes."

Next, we started to discuss the matter of getting married. This matter has already been mentioned on the agenda, and we have carefully discussed all the details, including who to invite, the specific arrangements for the wedding day, when to start shopping, etc. nitty gritty.

Suddenly Han Qingquan asked: "Xiao Luo, you will be 15 soon, who do you want to invite for the ceremony?"

"Do you still want to hire someone?" Han Qianluo asked in surprise. Isn't it enough to be 15 years old? Why does it seem that there is still some kind of ceremony.

Liu Linchu explained softly from the side: "This is the proof of your adulthood. A ceremony is definitely needed. Some people are invited to prove that you are an adult."

Han Qianluo thought for a while, since they are all such rules, she doesn't need to violate them, besides, she is still a little curious about what is going on with the so-called Jiji rituals, and she is actually very concerned about many ancient etiquettes and ceremonies. All very curious.

"According to the rules, who should be invited?" Han Qianluo asked, "Invite whoever should be invited."

"That's fine, I'll take care of it, but your clothes have to be made quickly." Han Qingquan said.

Han Qianluo really didn't know anything about it, so he quickly asked, "What clothes?"

Han Qingquan paused for a moment, and then said: "Plain clothes and skirts, deep clothes with curved trains, and dresses with long sleeves, and matching hairpins, hairpins, etc. should also be bought together."

"Well, I know." Han Qianluo replied, thinking about it for a while, her fifteenth birthday is less than a month away, she needs to start making clothes as soon as possible, and if she can't, she will go to order tailor-made clothes Well, although there are no ready-made clothes for sale now, you can order them to order.

The next morning, Han Qianluo still set up a stall selling soy sauce at the door of the shop as before. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a group of people walking into the shop, but he didn't mind too much, thinking they were just ordinary paper buyers, so Keep busy calling soy sauce.

Unexpectedly, just after a while, the shopper had just left when Han Qianluo saw Dow come out of the shop in a hurry: "Sister Han, go in quickly."

"What's the matter?" Han Qianluo stood up. Although he was a little puzzled, he still walked inside. As soon as he walked in, he saw two men sitting in the room, and another man who was obviously a servant standing beside.
