Chapter 86 The "Good Thing" of Burning High Incense

Mai Xiang was eager to find an excuse to leave. Hearing this, he was about to speak, but Ye Dafu stopped him.

"Mai Xiang, listen to Dad, don't go out today, and have a conversation with your mother Wan."

Ye Dafu promised to let Mai Xiang accompany Mrs. Liu last night, to make Mrs. Wan happy, and gave some money to Wu Fu to marry a wife. From now on, Mai Xiang can do whatever she wants.

Seeing that Mai Xiang stayed behind, Mrs. Liu turned to Mrs. Wan, with a smile on her face again, and said, "Sister-in-law, come in quickly, cool off, and rest your sweat."

Mai Xiang had no choice but to follow the others into the house. At any rate, Wan's family escaped this trip. Mrs. Liu got a bracelet today, and Wan's family sent these rice noodles, two large watermelons, and four cotton cloths. The cost of Wufu getting married should be about the same, right?

When Mai Xiang looked at the cotton cloth, Mrs. Wan also looked at the cotton cloth. This time, she was planning to give Mai Xiang a piece of floral cloth. Who would have thought that when she came to see it today, the clothes on Mai Xiang were actually made of yarn? , This cotton cloth, she is a little bit out of hand.

Mai Xiang didn't think so much about this meeting, what she thought about was whether Tong Liwen went to the Reclining Buddha Temple, and whether she saw her message.

"Where are my eldest brother and how many nephews?" Mrs. Wan sat down, naturally she wanted to greet Ye Tiezhu first.

"It's down to the ground. Once the crops are planted, there will be no free time." Mrs. Liu said while making tea for Mrs. Wan Zhang Luo.

"Mother, what kind of tea do you have on this hot day, why not cut up the big watermelon brought by Mrs. Wan, and relieve Mrs. Wan from the heat, and let us borrow some light too." Qian said with a smile.

"That's not the case. Come on, Mai Xiang, go and cut up the melons and taste them carefully. This is the first batch of melons that just came out this year. I sent them specially for you." Old Madam Wan ordered with a smile .

"Our family has eaten it. The day before yesterday, Gege sent a car to pick up Da Ya, and gave him such a big watermelon, which is as long as it is, and has such a big peach. Tsk tsk, our Da Ya is enjoying the blessing with Ge Ge." Zhao Shi proudly stretched out his hand and gestured.

"Oh, I'm still late. This princess is really kind to Mai Xiang." After the old lady Wan finished speaking, she looked at the clothes and jade pendant on Mai Xiang. The material of the clothes was better than hers. Shuitou is also quite good. Ge Ge is so good to Mai Xiang, what is the reason?

"No, not only Ge Ge is good to our family's Mai Xiang, but even the old lady of Ge Ge's family is also thinking about our family's Mai Xiang. When she came back yesterday, she even sent someone..."

"Mother, let me wash the watermelon first, and you wash the knife." Mai Xiang interrupted Zhao Shi.

This Zhao family can't teach well.

"Why do you need to wash the knife?" Mrs. Zhao didn't want to leave, but she wanted to hear what the old lady Wan would say to Mrs. Liu.

"Let me help you." Jiufeng immediately went to get a knife and came out.

Mai Xiang cut the watermelon into small pieces, put them on a plate, and brought them to Mrs. Wan. The old lady nodded secretly when she saw it. Mai Xiang was really careful in her work.She was really worried that Mai Xiang would send her a long strip, but she couldn't hold a watermelon and chew on it in front of these people.

"Mai Xiang, this Gege has been looking for you again recently?" Mrs. Wan sat next to Mai Xiang while eating watermelon, chatting about homework.

"Well, she's staying in the nearby Zhuangzi for summer vacation. When she thinks of me, she picks me up to stay for one night. It's not a big deal."

"How old is Grid this year?"

"Thirteen."

"Hey, it's thirteen. Shouldn't it be time to send a girl to the draft this year?" Mrs. Wan was moved. This Zhang Jia's power in the capital is not small. Maybe this girl from Zhang Jia's family can really enter the palace. With her grandfather's reputation, her status must not be lowered.Even if he can't enter the palace, he can still be referred to as the concubine Fujin for a certain prince Baylor Beizi.

"I don't know about that." Mai Xiang smiled.

Seeing that Mai Xiang didn't want to continue talking, Mrs. Wan smiled and changed the subject, "Mai Xiang, have you often been to the Reclining Buddha Temple recently?"

"I've been there more recently, because many high-ranking officials and dignitaries have come to escape the summer heat."

Mai Xiang said this on purpose because Ye Dafu promised her to start building a house, and she wanted everyone to be prepared that she, Mai Xiang, had earned money, and of course, everyone included Mrs. Wan.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to have such eyesight? Who have you met recently?"

"Old lady, you also know that I never ask about these things, and people won't tell me about them." Mai Xiang replied with a smile.

"No, I'm too confused. By the way, how is your business with Tong's family? Is the kite business still going on?"

"Old lady, what kind of business is this? I'm just asking someone to help me sell some things. The kite is no longer available now, and I will wait until the spring of next year."

"Well, I don't think it's better than this. You let your father slowly make kites, and then send them to our Wanjia. In the spring of next year, our Wanjia will sell them in the city."

The reason why Mrs. Wan dared to say this was because the two kites made by Mai Xiang not only brought good luck to Wan’s family, but also the patterns were indeed rare. .

Of course, Wanjia doesn't pay attention to such a small business. What she likes is Mai Xiang's potential and connections, so she wants to win over Mai Xiang as soon as possible, give Mai Xiang some small favors, and let Mai Xiang inherit the Wan family. This love, as for other things, she still wants to see it for a year or two.

Of course Mai Xiang understood this, so she smiled and said, "Mai Xiang, thank you for your help. However, I have already agreed with the Tong family that I will only supply the kite to his family. I think, whether it is a person In business, the first thing to talk about is honesty, old lady, don’t you think so?”

"Integrity, isn't it honesty? I didn't expect you to understand this at such a young age. Okay, I won't embarrass you. I'm just worried that your father's craftsmanship will go to waste." Mrs. Wan smiled and pulled the microphone Xiang rubbed her hand, and then looked back at Mrs. Liu.

As long as the Ye family is honest, the Wan family will have a way to let Mai Xiang marry into the Wan family.At this meeting, Mrs. Wan ignored it. Her son had already been dishonest and retired early. In her opinion, Wan Baocai and Ye Tiezhu made the agreement, and Wan Chengyao came to withdraw the marriage. You can pretend not to know.

When Mrs. Wan was smiling and holding Mai Xiang's hand, Mrs. Qian who was at the side saw that the old lady was happy, and quickly asked, "Ma'am, my Er Fu also learned how to make a kite. Can your Wan family accept the kite he made?" ?”

"Alright, let your uncle tell the shopkeeper in the shop that you can send the kite directly to the shop, and let the shopkeeper look at it and give you a price." Mrs. Wan was stunned for a moment, and agreed.

"It's a good feeling. In the future, the kites made by my family Sanfu will be given somewhere. Thank you, Madam." Sun also hurriedly said with a smile.

"Okay, one family also accepts, and two also accept." The old lady didn't want to get entangled in this issue.

"By the way, brothers and sisters, since you plan to stay at my house for a few days today, I'm here now, and I happen to have a carriage, so it's more convenient to follow me now."

Mrs. Wan didn't want to stay any longer. Some things were difficult to say in front of these people. Moreover, she wanted to take Mai Xiang to live in Wan's house for a few days, and she also wanted Mai Xiang to meet her two grandchildren.

"Is this suitable?" Mrs. Liu actually didn't really want to go, and the Wan family spent a lot of money on this trip, so going again would seem a little greedy.

However, when she saw Mrs. Wan's eyes rolling over Mai Xiang, she understood that the old lady wanted to take Mai Xiang to stay for a few days.

"It's okay, my sister-in-law has come to see me in such a hot day, and I'm going to walk around too. Is your brother okay these days?"

"He is afraid of the heat, or else he would come with me, saying that he wants to talk to the big brother. This man is getting old, and he likes to think about the past."

"No, it's the same for everyone. The old man in my family often talked about his elder brother. He said that when he was young, his elder brother would protect him every time he was mischievous. Later, when he grew up, he was still taking care of him. These things Years have passed, and the eldest brother is still pulling him."

Mrs. Wan's words were very useful to Mrs. Wan, she hurriedly said with a smile: "It happens that your elder brother is also talking about this brother at home, why don't you just live together for a few days, work in the field, don't you have a few sons?"

"I can't live here for a few days. The fifth child mentioned a girl who has already been on a blind date. After about four or five days, it's time to make a decision."

"Oh, it's a good feeling, but it's a pity that I didn't know it. If I knew it, I would have prepared something for the child. It's better for the younger siblings. There will always be happy events in the family every three or two years. In this way, the younger siblings should come to my house for a few days. Yes, let my family feel happy and popular."

"What joy and popularity, it's just a few more people." After Liu Shi finished speaking, she was also very happy. This Ye family also has something that the Wan family envies.

Mrs. Zhao saw that Mrs. Wan Zhang Luo was going to leave. She sat here for a long time and got nothing. She was dissatisfied for a long time, and she didn't want Mai Xiang to follow her into Wan's house. She doesn't even want the jade bracelet, and she won't want anything when she goes to Wanjia, so why let the child go again, it's helping others in vain.

"Big girl, your mother Wan has already come, so you don't want to go anymore, there are still things to do at home. If you want to go, who will your father and I point to?"

Mai Xiang was amused when she heard it, but when she didn't expect that the Zhao family would be useful, she hurriedly laughed and said, "Mother, I see, it happens that the mother and the old lady are gone, and I can still help grandpa and fifth and eighth uncles with cooking. order food."

"Ah, you're not going?" Mrs. Wan asked.

"Mommy, the family really can't do without me. I also promised to accompany Gege to the Temple of the Reclining Buddha tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Originally, I also planned to visit Madam Wan today and then come back." Mai Xiang said hurriedly.

Old Madam Wan saw that Mai Xiang talked about this, so naturally she couldn't force it, not to mention, Mai Xiang even lifted Grid out, could she not agree?Can she be older than Grid?
"You child, every time you are asked to come, you are pushed back and forth. Next time, after this busy summer, if you don't come again, I will not agree." The old lady had no choice but to say so.

It seems that we have to start with Liu Shi and Ye Tiezhu. Since Mai Xiang knew who she was, she has been too guarded. , this Wan family can let her marry in, shouldn't it be a good thing to burn incense?
