Chapter 91 How about marrying a son and a daughter?
Daddy Li and others came and greeted the patriarch. They were also curious about how the patriarch's family had such a relative.
For example, Li Jigui, who had been to Datong Warehouse to sell kudzu root before, looked at Shopkeeper Ding and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't place it clearly.
Li Rongzong's eyes widened, as surprised as the pomegranate at the door. This is shopkeeper Ding!
Clan Chief Li was busy introducing each other. He first introduced to Father Li and others who they were, and then introduced Father Li and others to Ding Fuguang.
Ding Fuguang smiled throughout the whole process, and greeted his elders politely, while his peers bowed their hands in greeting, and his juniors nodded.
Leaving aside the others, the focus was on Li Ji and his father and son. He paid more attention without leaving any trace.
The men here are chatting with each other, and Old Chen, who has already let Mrs. Ding and her daughter-in-law take a seat in the dining room, quickly asks Old Yuan and Old Yang to come and sit down, and give them some food by the way. Introducing Mrs. Ding, her mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law.
Pomegranate followed behind Old Yuan, thinking that he was a junior, just here to act as a pendant, it was not important, he could just call people when he needed to.
She also asked what the patriarch grandfather was doing after she arrived. She thought that all the junior girls from several families would come, but unexpectedly, she was the only one asked to come.
As soon as she came, she thought she was here to play with Caiyu and the others, but why did shopkeeper Ding's wife keep looking at her?
After looking at her like this, I still want to give her a greeting gift. Will she accept it or not?
Oh, how many jade gifts are there for the meeting? The patriarch’s grandma smiled again and asked her to continue, so Pomegranate had no choice but to take it.
Wang's eyes were all on Pomegranate, looking at her from head to toe, but she didn't see anything out of the ordinary. A round face with bright eyes is just pleasing to the eye.
That’s it, isn’t there the girl she introduced before?
She really couldn't understand how her husband fell in love with her.
But as her husband had told her, she couldn't say much at the moment. She still had to give out the gift she was going to give, and she was good at it.
After Patriarch Li introduced a group of men, he looked around and found Pomegranate standing behind Old Yuan, and hurriedly waved to her to come over.
Then he introduced it to Ding Fuguang: "This is pomegranate! The granddaughter of my fourth brother's family, this kid can do a lot of things. The business we talked about earlier about selling kudzu and making wooden boxes was all started by this kid. ! By the way! I heard about this kudzu thing when I came to Datong Warehouse to sell bamboo rats! You should have seen this girl!"
Ding Fuguang was dozing off and someone handed him a pillow. He was also very happy that his cousin was so interested in him. He looked at Shiliu with a smile in his eyes. Said: "I've met before, more than once, pomegranate girl, do you still remember me?"
Due to Mrs. Ding's strange look just now, Shiliu now smiled a little more thoughtfully at Shopkeeper Ding, and said innocently: "Remember! You belong to Shopkeeper Ding of Datong Warehouse!"
Ding Fuguang nodded repeatedly, stroked his beard and praised the pomegranates to Patriarch Li with a smile, as if he was saying good things for free.
The boastful Pomegranate looked sideways again and again. She really couldn't stand this series of rainbow farts, so she was so embarrassed that she quickly found a routine and sneaked out to find Caiyu and the others.
Caiyu Caifeng and the others were in the kitchen helping to select and wash vegetables. The Fan family and the other wives from the clan were as busy as setting up a banquet, and it was very lively.
Seeing Pomegranate coming over, Caiyu hurriedly raised her hand to greet her, "Pomegranate! Come quickly!"
"Sister Caiyu!" Pomegranate called someone and went over to choose vegetables with Caiyu.
Caiyu smiled at her and asked in a low voice: "Pomegranate, have you got the greeting gift?" Then she took out the greeting gift she just got and showed it to Pomegranate, "Look, these silver melon seeds It's so beautiful!" "Come on." Pomegranate was stunned when she saw a handful of silver melon seeds that Caiyu poured out of her purse.
Silver melon seeds?
Pomegranate was even more shocked when she asked Sister Caifeng again that they all had the same silver melon seeds.
She touched her purse carefully. Why did it look like a bracelet?
Isn’t this a different gift for a meeting? But speaking of it, Caifeng and the others are a little closer to Mrs. Ding, right? It makes no sense to give them silver melon seeds, but give her a bracelet.
Pomegranate couldn't help but make an excuse to go to the latrine, and went to open the purse in the latrine. She saw that there was indeed a bracelet inside, a gold and silver bracelet, and it was quite heavy to hold.
Pomegranate's mind was spinning rapidly. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she slipped back into the main room.
In the main room where Shiliu had just slipped away, Patriarch Li and Father Li looked proud at Ding Fuguang's praise.
Especially Father Li and Li Jihe and his son. These are their own children. It is not a happy thing to be praised by such a big shopkeeper.
But she is happy, and she still has to be humble on the face. She is just a child, how can she deserve such praise from you, shopkeeper Ding.
Ding Fuguang couldn't help but look serious, "I really think this kid Shiliu is smart and capable, which is rare!"
As he said that, he turned to look at Li Jihe and said : "I wonder if Pomegranate Girl will Are you married? My young son is quite suitable for me at the right age. I wonder if I am destined to have a son-in-law with Brother Li?” , also confused.
Get married?
As soon as Ding Fuguang said these words, the entire hall fell silent, followed by several uncontrollable exclamations.
One of them was Patriarch Li. He was really surprised.
Pomegranate is a smart and capable child who is different from other little girls. He also notices it. After all, if he keeps the ancestor, all the sons of the family will be in Pomegranate. body.
The child is smart, and he has no worries about the marriage. As far as he knows, several families in the village are already secretly thinking about it. Even the head of the village seems to want to mention it when talking to him. His great-nephew is here.
Patriarch Li was not worried about Shiliu's marriage, but he had never thought that the nephew of his old wife who had just come to the house to get married would also have this idea. Is this a joke?
But it doesn’t look like that!
Is that true?
At this moment, Patriarch Li had to doubt the real purpose of his nephew's family's sudden visit.
But there is no need to worry about it for now. His mind is spinning quickly about this marriage.
First of all, he already knew that this nephew was the big shopkeeper of Datong Warehouse. He lived in a big house in the city and opened many shops. There were also farms outside the city that collected rent. He traveled by horse-drawn carriage and was served by servants. Yes, if you marry me, you will be a serious young lady, and she will enjoy happiness!
It is said that if you get the name Pomegranate, you will be lucky. Now it seems that it is not true!
No girl in the Li family can say such a good marriage!
The more Patriarch Li thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn't help but look at Father Li and Li Jihe to see their reactions.
