Dressed As a Mother-in-law, She Leads the Whole Family To Turn Over Chapter 419

Chapter 419 Preparations for the Spring Festival

When Cui Yudie saw that Cui Boyuan had made her so embarrassed, she acted impulsively and yelled, "If you break the relationship, break the relationship! You really take yourself seriously! I want to see if the Cui family will lick their faces and beg me to come back in the future. ,let's go!"

After the Cheng family's carriage left, Cui Boyuan breathed a sigh of relief and went into the house in front of everyone to ask Cui Guang to write down the divorce document and then send it to the government office and the Cheng family.

He didn't deliberately keep a high profile, but he didn't hide it either. Many people still knew about it, but it just didn't spread.

This matter was taken care of before Jiang Ning returned home.

The Cui family's female relatives also knew about it.

Wang came over in a hurry and gave Jiang Ning a blessing. Then he talked about it with Mrs. Ming San. She was so happy from the inside out that she wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Jiang Ning was happy. After all, they had tricked the Cheng family and were afraid of hurting the Cui family. Now that the Cui family is so decisive, she can feel at ease knowing that no matter how bad things happen in the future, they won't be affected.

The first month of the first lunar month left quietly amidst the laughter and chats of visiting relatives and friends. The rain hit the wintersweet branches with ice flowers and fell on the looming green between the walls and stones. Spring has quietly begun its rich colors.

The women in the backyard are busy preparing to make spring clothes, while the men are rummaging through boxes and cabinets, taking out all their warm clothes for the coming spring.

Jiang Ning was talking to Liu Ye and others about the Spring Festival when he saw brothers Yang Santie coming over with Xu Nuoshan and Liang Shaoqian.

Jiang Ning hurriedly asked the maid to serve hot **** tea.

Yang Santie's eyes lit up when he saw Yang Xiaohua, “Sister Xiaohua, I'm going to end tomorrow!”

Yang Xiaohua was speechless and her face turned slightly red.

Yang Erdan pretended to cough twice as a reminder, and bowed to Jiang Ning, "Auntie, I will bring Nuoshan and Shao Qian back. During the spring period, I will let them live in the house. It will be more convenient for them to go to the Gongyuan."

When they arrived in the capital together, Jiang Ning originally arranged for them to live in the Guang'en Marquis Mansion, but Liang Shaoqian had Liang Hongchang to manage the relationship and had already found a good friend who could give him academic advice. Naturally, he could not go back with her. Xu Nuoshan was Because he didn't want to trouble the Yang family, and because Mrs. Zhou had given him a lot of money, and since he had just arrived in the capital, he needed to get familiar with the environment and make friends with some scholars to get more information, so he rejected Jiang Ning's kindness and went to the inn.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the whole capital seemed to explode. Scholars from all over the country rushing to take the exam came. The streets were crowded, it was hard to find a room in inns and houses, and many people couldn't find a place to stay. They were getting along well before. The inn is now so noisy that people can't sit still and read, and people talk too much, so it's easy to get tricked.

For example, being thrown into a croton for no reason is very bad. In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Xu Nuoshan followed the instructions of the Yang brothers and checked out and came over. Liang Shaoqian wanted to have company with everyone, so he also came.

“Mother-in-law/aunt, excuse me!”

Liang Shaoqian and Xu Nuoshan both came forward to greet him.

With a smile on his face, Jiang Ning invited them to sit down. He glanced at their faces one by one and asked with concern: "Are you ready for the end of the day tomorrow? It's a bit colder than the twelfth lunar month in winter. It's bone-chilling. , It's not enough to rely on Gongyuan's little protection against the cold.”

Yang Santie is not worried. After all, she is someone who has been outside the customs and has excellent self-care ability. It is the first time for the other three to come to the capital, so it is probably difficult to adapt. Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Liang Shaoqian and Xu Nuoshan looking embarrassed.

“Mother-in-law, to be honest, I feel that the clothes I brought from Quzhou Prefecture are not very suitable for use.” Liang Shaoqian scratched his head in embarrassment.

Xu Nuoshan also nodded in agreement, "The coat we prepared can indeed keep warm, but it also prevents me from writing. I've asked around in the past few days and everyone has their own ways to protect themselves from the cold. It's all kinds of weird, but it's my first time to participate in the Spring Festival and I have no experience. No. Know who to listen to.”

The poor scholar used the method of keeping warm, wearing three layers of oil-paper clothing on the inside and three outside. Even though the oil-paper clothing is only thin, it is waterproof and windproof, locking in the body's heat to the maximum extent. If you come here, you don't have to wear many heavy coats, and Gongyuan does not allow candidates to wear too thick clothes to prevent cheating.

They would also like to get some oil paper clothes, but the main function of these clothes is to protect them from the cold. It is too late to make them tailor-made, and the masters of several ready-to-wear shops in the capital are simply too busy to accept new work.

They have no use for this method. They can only look at the preparations of well-off scholars. Most of them use fur coats to keep out the cold. They are not heavy and can keep warm. One piece in a ready-made clothing store costs dozens or even hundreds of taels. They also have to go to the clothing store. If you stay in the capital for a while, it will be even longer if you have to attend the imperial examination in April after spring. You can't spend all your money on fur coats!

Because of these concerns, they have not arranged things properly so far.

Jiang Ning nodded solemnly, and Tong Huazhi ordered: "Go and get the clothes I asked you to make."

Liang Shaoqian and others were a little surprised.

“Mother-in-law, have you prepared clothes for us?”

Jiang Ning smiled and explained: "I'm just taking precautions. Before leaving Quzhou Mansion, Nuoshan, his mother-in-law, and Erya came to look for me alone. In addition to giving money, they also asked me to take care of you. Since I agreed, naturally Do what you say.

I have heard of the paper clothes you are talking about, but I have never seen them. The housekeeper went out to inquire about them, and took the servants in the house to make two clothes for you according to your height and measurements, as well as sheepskin jackets. These sheepskins are mine. I asked King Xiaoyao to find it. I heard that the sheepskin in the northwest is of good quality and very warm. You can each wear one, go back and try it on. "

When he saw the thing, Xu Nuoshan was so moved that his eyes turned red, "Auntie, please bother me, this sheepskin coat is not cheap!"

He asked at a clothing store and found out that a large sheepskin coat cost about thirty taels of silver.

Jiang Ning covered his mouth and chuckled, "You know the prices in clothing stores. It's different here. In the northwest, a treated sheepskin costs about two taels of silver. It takes about three to four sheepskins to make a coat like this. It doesn't even cost ten taels of silver to do the work, but it's a long way from the northwest to the capital. Taking into account the manpower and material resources, the tailor shop naturally has to sell at a high price, otherwise it will lose money.

We can make the sheepskins ourselves, but there are so many of them! If you dress steadily and concentrate on the exam, if you get into high school in one fell swoop, you will be the greatest thank you to your aunt. "

Xu Nuoshan bowed solemnly again, holding the coat and oil paper clothes tightly in his arms.

In addition to clothes, Jiang Ning also asked his servants to make sheepskin boots for them, using scraps from sheepskin jackets. Wearing such a set when going out will not feel cold at 20 to 30 degrees below zero.

With these clothes, the four people's confidence has obviously doubled.
