049 Gifts Shouldn't Be Given to Me
Anxiu bought some beautiful headbands for He Yuer, a puppet doll, and a set of the Four Treasures of the Study for Shusheng, and then bought half a catty of maltose and two catties of peach cakes, and kept them for filling when she was hungry at noon.

Passing by a shop selling jewelry, the second aunt secretly pulled Anxiu, and said with a low laugh, "Your aunt bought a pair of ruby ​​bracelets for Xia'er. Juanzi didn't say anything to her face, but kept murmuring that it was beautiful when she got home. I thought about giving it to you." She also bought a set of jewelry. Juanzi usually doesn't pay much attention to these things, but she is a big girl after all, so she can't be wronged."

"Success, let's go and look at the jewelry." Anxiu said with a smile.

This is a jewelry store that sells jade. It is full of jades of various colors, and the warm texture is heartwarming.Anxiu thought that she would do farm work, wash and cook, and it was not suitable for her to wear, but she just didn't think she would buy it.

But He Shusheng took a fancy to it, pointed to the jade jewelry such as bracelets and hairpins in the closet and said, "Xiu, you should buy a set for yourself too."

The second aunt smiled: "Shusheng also knows how to love his wife. Xiu, listen to my aunt, you also buy a set, don't wrong yourself, ah!"

Anxiu smiled: "He doesn't know how expensive he is, so I won't buy it. I'm used to being rough, and I don't like such delicate things."

The second aunt thought she was reluctant to part with the money, so she stopped trying to persuade her.After all, it's not like red flowers on the headband that cost a few pennies, so I looked around and finally saw He Xia's red jade bracelet, and was about to buy it, but An Xiu hurriedly stopped her: "Xia'er has it all. Looking back and comparing, people said that Juanzi’s wear is not as good-looking as Xia’er’s, and Juanzi is not happy about it. It’s not as good as this set.” Anxiu pointed to a pair of emerald bracelets next door.

She was telling the truth, He Juan's skin was not as fair and tender as He Xia's, and her eyebrows and eyes were not as good-looking as He Xia's. Wearing a bracelet like hers made people in Zhuangzi laugh at her, and besides, the emerald bracelet matched He Juan's temperament.

After thinking about it, the second aunt felt that An Xiu's words were reasonable, so she bought a set of emerald green jade bracelets. The color was green and eye-catching, very beautiful, and the price was [-]% cheaper than the red jade bracelets, so the second aunt was also happy.

He Jiangsheng also took a fancy to a pair of jade earrings, with white jade rings hanging from silver hooks, elegant and refined.

"This looks good." Anxiu laughed exaggeratedly, "Brother Jiang has really good eyesight."

He Jiangsheng bit his lip and smiled, very satisfied with the pair of jade earrings.The second aunt asked about the price, and it was not expensive, so she immediately bought it for He Jiangsheng, saying: "Every girl Xiu said it looks good, the daughter of the Wang family will definitely like it."

Passing by the rouge gouache shop, He Jiangsheng went in again and bought a box of rouge and a bottle of hair oil.

The second aunt didn't say anything, but whispered to Anxiu secretly: "Your elder brother Jiang is generous, who doesn't get so many things from engagement? One small thing is enough. Just look at him."

Anxiu also laughed, maybe it was He Jiangsheng who was divorced, leaving some haze in his heart, afraid that the Wang family girl would look down on him, right?But Anxiu just heard from her second aunt that the girl's family is not well-off, and knowing that He Youfu's family has made a fortune, she wished to marry her daughter, how could she care about this?

The second aunt just bought some cloth. When she saw the cloth store, she thought about it and went in to pull some silk cloth. She was going to make some silk clothes for He Juan. She said with a smile, "Xia'er's clothes are all made of silk. Jia Juanzi doesn't have any. I, a mother, have wronged her so much."

"Second Aunt, don't compare with Xia'er. Apart from her better clothes and looks, she is not as good as our Juanzi in everything. Our Juanzi looks good without dressing up. In the future, people who propose marriage will definitely step on the threshold." An Xiu said truthfully, The pursuit of difference is not comparable.

The purpose of the aunt is to make He Xia look like a young lady, so that she can marry into a landlord's house in the future.

Mrs. Li smiled and did not speak, except for the silk cloth, the other coarse cloths were also torn out by the family members. In the past, all the clothes were made by spinning at home, and it was rare to buy such ready-made cloth.Now that the conditions are better, Second Aunt wants to pursue enjoyment, Anxiu smiled.

Back in Zhuangzi, it was already noon.

First go to the second uncle's house, unload the things that the second uncle and aunt bought, and then the second uncle asks He Jiangsheng to send Anxiu back.He Juan held He Feng at the door and waited for them to come back. Seeing the little rabbit An Xiu gave her, the two sisters screamed excitedly.

Second Aunt laughed and said, "It's rare for Juanzi to become crazy like this, it's all caused by Girl Xiu."

"Then I won't come next time!" Anxiu pretended to be angry, turned around and snickered.She could naturally hear the intimacy in Second Aunt's words.

"Look, you're still angry!" Second Aunt poked her forehead and laughed.

Before leaving, the second uncle called her: "Xiu girl, I will borrow the ox cart from the second uncle the day after tomorrow, and I will go to Jishang to bring back the oil and the quilt."

"Success!" Anxiu simply laughed.

He Jiangsheng sent Anxiu back to her yard, and moved their things back to the room for them.He Yu'er and He Shusheng also helped, and after the move was over, the two of them carried the rabbit cage and the chicken cubs, hurriedly looking for something to feed.

He Jiangsheng helped Anxiu unload the ox cart, suddenly took out a brocade box from his arms and put it on the ox cart, turned around and left in a hurry.

Anxiu froze for a moment, and in a blink of an eye He Jiangsheng disappeared as if fleeing.Isn't this the earring he bought just now?Why give it to her?
Opening the brocade box, I saw a pile of white jade earrings lying quietly on the fabric made of navy blue silk, which was even more beautiful and refined.Anxiu's heart skipped a beat, she vaguely understood something, she turned around and put away the brocade box, so that He Shusheng and He Yu'er couldn't see it.

After lunch, Anxiu divided up the gifts and asked them to send them to their uncles: let He Shusheng go to the uncle's house, He Yuer to go to the father's house, and she carried two gifts, first to the second uncle's house, and then to the third uncle's house.

Although it is a custom, the second uncle and the second aunt were polite and said that the family should not spend money in the future.

Anxiu took out the brocade box that He Jiangsheng gave her from her bosom, and said with a smile, "Look, brother Jiang just left in a hurry and left all these things on the bullock cart. I wanted to hide it from you, but I was helpless I'm afraid my second aunt will call me immoral."

He Jiangsheng's face suddenly changed color, fidgeting.Although Anxiu returned the things lightly, it was not embarrassing for both of them.He still felt that his face was burning hot, and his heart was hurt like a cut.

The second aunt held it in her hand, and said with a smile: "Jiang Sheng was not like this in the past, but today he is careless. When it comes to engagement, he doesn't have his soul in him."

Everyone laughed, Anxiu laughed in agreement, but heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally returned it.Stealthly glanced at He Jiangsheng, his ears turned red.

"What is this?" He Juan snatched it over, and when she saw it, her eyes lit up, but she deliberately looked at He Jiangsheng, "It's so beautiful, brother, did you buy it for me?"

She knew that it was bought for the daughter of the Wang family, and they were going to be engaged.

Unexpectedly, He Jiangsheng smiled lightly: "If you like it, keep it."

The second aunt snatched it away and poked He Juan's forehead: "Isn't it enough to have a bracelet? This is what your brother bought for your future sister-in-law. You are so rare, and mother will buy it for you in a few days."

"I don't care." He Juan said with a smile.

"Yes, Juanzi, don't worry, someone will give it to you in the future." Anxiu couldn't help teasing He Juan.The second aunt bought her silk fabrics, just thinking of betrothing her.

"Sister Xiu is always talking nonsense!" He Juan bit her lip and lowered her head in embarrassment.

The daughter's shy appearance made the two old people smile, and only He Jiangsheng's smile was a little bit bitter.

Anxiu didn't sit still, took the gift for Sanbo's family, and left.

The third uncle and the third aunt said a lot of polite words, and kept complaining to Anxiu about her misery, but Anxiu listened quietly, and waited for a while before finding a reason to come out.Looking at their house in a blink of an eye, it is only a dozen years old, and it is already dilapidated, the yard is in disrepair, and several places are missing.

I don't know how to pull out the weeds all over the yard.The three children were like beggars, with a stench coming from their bodies.Anxiu couldn't bear it anymore and sighed contemptuously.People who are so lazy are indeed rare.
