The happy little days of the Ye family

Chapter 718 Ye Xilin’s Recruitment

Ye Xilin's betrothal gift, apart from the fabrics, has not been bought yet, other things Ye Mu and Mrs. Ye have already prepared.

In the Li family, Ye Xilin said that he would prepare a gold bracelet for Li Guoer in private.

After returning from the Li family to discuss the betrothal gift that day, Ye Xilin went to the largest silver building in the county with a large bag of silver the next day.

There are many styles of gold bracelets in Yinlou, but the most commonly used ones are the auspicious cloud patterns and the parallel lotus patterns.

Ye Xilin thought that the bracelet his eldest brother bought for his sister-in-law was also made of lotus flowers. Many of Ye Qingqing's jewelry also had the lotus pattern, so he also chose the lotus pattern.

One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver. The gold bracelets in the silver building are relatively thin, and most of them cost around two or three cents.

Ye Xilin felt that those thin gold bracelets were too petty and not grand enough at all, so he specially added silver to customize a four-weight gold bracelet.

Because the gold bracelet Ye Xilin wanted was customized on a rush basis and he paid a little extra, the whole gold bracelet cost a total of 46 taels of silver.

When Ye Xilin paid, the shopkeeper and the waiter thought he was a young man from a wealthy family, he was very enthusiastic and had all kinds of good things to say.

Unfortunately, their lips were dry from talking, and they didn't see him reward him, so they began to complain about Ye Xilin's stinginess.

Ye Xilin was thinking about a beautiful life with Li Guoer, and the two of them paid no attention to what they were thinking.

On the way back, Ye Xilin was either in a daze or giggling. Fortunately, the family's donkey often went to the county and knew the way home, otherwise he would have gone to the next town.

When there were only three days left before the next appointment, Ye Xilin couldn't wait to go to the county to pick up the gold bracelet, accompanied by Ye Mu who came to buy fabrics.

The betrothal gift given to Li Guoer by the Ye family included two pieces of coarse cotton cloth and two pieces of fine linen cloth.

The specifications of the fabric have been decided, now it’s time to choose the color of the fabric.

Mother Ye carefully recalled the scene when she met Li Guoer. The little girl was bright and majestic and tall.

During the few times we met, Li Guoer always wore atmospheric green or blue.

This is the betrothal gift for Li Guoer. The Li family also said that all betrothal gifts will be given to Li Guoer as a dowry.

Ye Mu planned to choose fabrics based on Li Guoer's preferences and temperament.

The fine linen fabric is suitable for Li Guoer to wear on a daily basis, and Ye Mu plans to get a blue one and a light green one.

As for burlap fabrics, farmers rarely wear cotton fabrics, and most of them are used for giving gifts. Ye Mu chose the more commonly used cyan and navy blue.

These two colors are age-neutral and gender-neutral. Whether Li Guoer wears them herself or gives them as gifts in the future, she can’t go wrong.

Ye's mother was very considerate and had considered everything for Li Guoer, but Ye Xilin didn't think so.

Among the fine linen fabrics, Ye Xilin chose a rose-red one and a pink one.

Those two pieces of pink and tender cloth made Mother Ye's eyes twitch. "You will definitely not wear these two pieces of cloth if you buy them, so put them back quickly."

"No, these two pieces of fabric are so beautiful." Ye Xilin was not convinced, but still thought the fabric he chose looked good.

What kind of look was this? Mother Ye almost rolled her eyes at him, but thinking that this was her biological son, she could only say patiently:

"The fabric is good, but it doesn't match Guo'er. A brave and heroic woman like Guo'er should wear more elegant colors."

Ye Xilin thought about it for a moment. He had seen Li Guoer so many times, and it seemed that he had never worn pink or rose-red clothes.

Mother Ye ran out of patience and glared at Ye Xilin, "Don't even think about it. Put these two pieces of fabric back for me immediately."

"And the cotton fabric you chose, why did you choose black and gray? How can anyone choose such a gloomy color?"

Ye Xilin wanted to refute and fight for himself, but Ye Mu ignored him at all.

Ye Xilin directly moved all the fabrics he selected back to the shelf, and then took the 4 pieces of fabrics he selected to the counter to check out.

Ye Mu bought all the fabrics very quickly and directed Ye Xilin to move the fabrics to the donkey cart.

After buying the fabric, the mother and son went directly to the silver building to pick up the gold bracelet customized by Ye Xilin.

Although the gold bracelet Ye Xilin bought was privately given to Li Guoer, his family had known about it for a long time.

Ye Xilin went to get the gold bracelet, and Ye Donglin also quietly went to the silver shop in the town and bought Wang Chunyu a lotus-shaped silver hairpin.

The silver hairpin chosen by Ye Donglin is small and exquisite, which matches Wang Chunyu's temperament very well.

After buying the cloth and gold bracelets, Ye Mu quickly packed up all the betrothal gifts.

The wild goats included in the betrothal gift were brought back early by asking the family's long-term workers to help catch them. Not to mention the pigs, they directly picked the fattest pig in the pig pen.

The Ye family is a well-known and well-off family in Shiliba Village, and the Li family is also a relatively wealthy and famous family in Dashan Village. People in the village have long known that the two families are getting married.

When Ye Xilin went to the Li family to hire someone, the entire Dashan Village came over to watch the fun, and the Li family was completely surrounded.

Seeing that the Ye family's betrothal gifts included two silver bracelets, gold earrings and so many beautiful fabrics, the eldest girls and daughters-in-law in the village were extremely envious.

Later, when I learned that the betrothal gift given by the Ye family was a full 20 taels of silver, the family with a daughter couldn't sit still and wanted to take Ye Xilin, a good son-in-law, home.

Li Guoer stole the show today, making the women in the village so envious that their eyes turned red.

"If it weren't for the good relationship between Orion Li and the Ye family, Li Guoer wouldn't have had the chance to get married." A pretty woman looked at Li Guoer with jealousy.

The little sister who was playing well with her quickly pulled her sleeves and asked her to keep her voice down.

There were also a few unengaged young girls standing nearby. Although they were very envious, they did not dare to say anything bad about Li Guoer, for fear that the Li family would come to settle accounts with them.

Li Guoer has a straightforward personality and doesn't care about the gossip in the village at all. If she is upset, she will hit someone.

Moreover, the three fathers and sons of the Li family are very protective of their shortcomings. Not only will they not stop them, they will also help them. Yang and Li Xiang'er were not easy to mess with either, so they came directly to the door to curse.

Li Guoer has been very strong since she was a child, and the children in the village sometimes say she is a monster.

When Li Guoer caught someone, she beat them up hard, beating the children who were older than her until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen.

Later, those children were put in sacks every once in a while, and they were often hit by dog ​​feces while walking on the road.

From then on, people in the village did not dare to speak ill of her, for fear that the Li family would put sacks on them, and they were even more afraid of being hit with dog feces every day.

之前李果儿定亲艰难,就是因为自身和娘家人都太过彪悍了,怕把母老虎娶回家后整天挨揍。
