Chapter 683 Brother's Promise
"Since she doesn't want money, we have to take the jewelry. Besides, if we give it to her and not to you, won't you be angry? Why don't we just buy bracelets for all four of you sisters, including Wangyou and Huanyue?"
Theirs are mother-of-pearl bracelets. Wangyou and I went to buy them together. She also picked them out for you. I won’t tell you. You can choose them yourselves. Let me see if Wangyou’s guess is right.”
Wan Xian smiled gently, and when she looked at Jiang Ruyi, her eyes were full of gratitude, and when she looked at Jiang Fubao, her eyes turned into doting.
"Second sister, you have made the greatest contribution, so you choose first." Jiang Fubao took a step back and put his hands on Jiang Ruyi's waist.
Jiang Ruyi walked up to Wan Xian involuntarily.
She simply picked up the gold bracelet and put it on her hand.
The remaining pink jade bracelet naturally belongs to Jiang Fubao.
"Hahaha, Wangyou's guess was right. She knows you two sisters very well. Come on, Fubao, put on the jade bracelet. It's hot, so it's most suitable to wear a jade bracelet. This gold bracelet is also very suitable for Ruyi. The gems on it have six colors. The shopkeeper also gave it a nice name, called the Six Treasures Exquisite Bracelet."
Wan Xian personally put the bracelet on Jiang Fubao, then took Jiang Ruyi's hand and spoke slowly.
"Yeah, it sounds good. I like it very much. Thank you, auntie."
Jiang Ruyi smiled sweetly.
She likes gorgeous things, especially gold and gems. This bracelet combines the two, and she can't refuse it at all. Her elder sister really understands her.
"Fubao, you have fair skin. Wearing this bracelet doesn't make you look dark at all. On the contrary, it really suits you."
After praising Jiang Ruyi, we cannot forget our goddaughter.
Wan Xian's left and right hands must not be empty.
The two sisters stood on her left and right, just like her daughters.
The three of them talked a lot about personal matters as the sun completely set.
The couple stayed here for dinner.
The two of them were very thoughtful and only gave it to the four sisters. What about the rest of the Jiang family?
So they came with a lot of gifts.
It’s just that the gifts from the four sisters were more expensive, especially Jiang Ruyi’s. Her bracelets were enough to buy all the bracelets for the three sisters.
Who asked her to change the recipe? The couple gave her the gift because of her.
It was getting late, and after finishing his meal and seeing his godfather and godmother off, Jiang Fubao returned to the second courtyard.
It was a hot day, and even though there was ice in the clinic, I still felt a little hot and was sweating to some extent.
After taking a bath, she changed into a translucent gauze pajamas, sat by the dressing table, and looked at herself in the bronze mirror.
Xue Huan was combing her hair behind her.
"Miss, you have to comb your hair three hundred times before you can get up." Xue Huan's soft and cute voice entered Jiang Fubao's ears.
"Okay." She replied, took off the pink jade bracelet on her wrist and wanted to put it in the jewelry box.
This jewelry box was given to her by her elder brother Jiang Tongji.
I still remember that my eldest brother said that when he grew up, he would help her fill this jewelry box.
The eldest brother is now a scholar, and even though the family is not short of money, he often takes on some copying work, saying that he can practice calligraphy and make money at the same time.
All the money earned and pocket money was used to buy jewelry for Jiang Fubao.
The box was already full and the jade bracelet couldn't fit in, so she simply put it on the table.
I plan to wear it tomorrow morning. Jiang Fubao has a habit of not wearing any jewelry when sleeping.
Next to the jewelry box is a powder box, which contains rouge, powder, stone ink and eyebrow drawing ink, as well as cream for applying on the face and hands in winter.
This makeup powder box was given by Jiang Tongxiang.
Compared to Jiang Tongji, although the two are not much different in age, their knowledge is very different.
The eldest brother will be eliminated soon, while the second brother is just preparing for the county examination.
"Xue Huan, tell the cook to roast some chicken and pork jerky. Follow the method I taught them earlier. Big brother is about to set off, so eating some jerky on the road is better than eating dry food. This stuff is spicy and flavorful, unlike dry food which is hard to swallow. Even in summer, it can be kept for a while."
Thinking that his elder brother was about to leave, Jiang Fubao gave instructions to Xue Huan.
"Okay, I'll go and talk to you after I finish combing the young lady's hair." Xue Huan combed her hair one stroke at a time, counting in her mind while speaking.
Only after she had combed her hair three hundred times did she put down the comb, go downstairs and go to the backyard.
The time of the autumn examination is different every year.
This year's is a little later, so Jiang Tongji hasn't left yet.
When the lights in the third courtyard of the Jiang family were turned off, Jiang Tongji's room was still brightly lit.
He held the book and read it intently until the moon moved from left to right, and then he realized it was getting late.
He blew out the candle, put down the book, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep in just a few breaths.
As for Jiang Tongxiang in the next room, he had already started having sweet dreams and was smacking his lips as if he was eating delicious food in his dream.
At that time, the medicinal seeds in Zhoujia Village had already been planted.
Therefore, the villagers are very busy, not only having to take care of the crops, but also tending to the medicinal fields.
When September came, chestnuts began to ripen, but they had no time to pick them.
It's a good deal for Sun Xiaotao.
After finishing her farm work every day, she would carry a bamboo basket up the mountain. Then, during the hottest time, she would stay in the mountain to avoid the heat and pick up a whole basket of chestnuts.
Chestnuts were harvested in many places. She picked them for five days and filled two bamboo baskets before she planned to go to town to sell them.
The two bamboo baskets were connected by a carrying pole. Sun Xiaotao, who had been doing farm work for half a year, had much more strength. Although he had to take a rest after walking for a while, he finally arrived in the town in the morning.
She first went to Caishi Street, paid a deposit, and prepared to set up a stall. However, after an hour, she had only sold 10% of her goods. If this continued, she was afraid that she might not be able to sell out even by the evening.
The woman opposite her was also selling chestnuts. The two of them decided to go to the shop selling roasted chestnuts on the street.
You know what, even though the price was a little lower, they bought it all.
In the end, the two baskets of chestnuts were sold for a full 120 cents, which made Sun Xiaotao very happy.
Fortunately, no one competed with her for it, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to pick up so much.
After spending twenty cents to buy some necessary things and cutting off a piece of flesh the size of a finger, Sun Xiaotao went out of the city and returned.
When she got home in the evening, it was already half dark. She fried some wild vegetables with meat, and it tasted so delicious.
When she woke up the next day, she continued to repeat the life of the previous few days, doing farm work, watering, weeding, going up the mountain, picking chestnuts, chopping some firewood and digging some wild vegetables.
Saved for five days.
She went to town again.
But halfway through, I met someone who was once the most familiar to me.
"Pillar--"
Sun Xiaotao called out to the people in front.
Jiang Zhuzi was stunned and turned his head to look.
But he looked away the next moment and continued walking forward with a stern face.
"Zhu Zi, wait for me, I have something to tell you." Sun Xiaotao couldn't walk fast because the bamboo basket on her was too heavy.
Seeing that Jiang Zhuzi refused to wait for her and even walked faster and faster, Sun Xiaotao was furious.
