Chapter 434: Double Standards of Mica
Ning Xiyue smiled and teased: "Mom, do you want your daughter to get married earlier or later?"
"Seriously, don't smile at me. I, your mother, feel very uncomfortable. When I think about my daughter getting married, I feel uncomfortable. And you are still smiling so happily. You have no conscience." Yun Xiulan glared at her with a bit of hatred.
Why are you getting anxious while talking?
Ning Xiyue was about to die of laughter from her mother. She laughed loudly without exaggeration. She restrained her laughter under Yunmu's glaring gaze, but the smile on her face was still bright:
"My dear mother, you are unreasonable. It was you who brought it up. I didn't say I wanted to get married now, and you still blame me!"
Yunmu glanced and glared, but before she could say anything, Ning Xiyue immediately straightened her attitude, held her hand and said warmly:
"Just relax. If your daughter doesn't get married so early, she will have to rely on you for four years. We have just started our studies, which is the most important starting point in life. We should focus on our studies and put the marriage off for later. There is no rush."
Yun Xiulan didn't smile when she heard this. Instead, she asked more seriously, "Is it your idea or Xiaoji's idea?"
His eyes were sharp and his face was so serious that Ning Xiyue suspected that she was the one being interrogated because she had committed some serious crime.
She swallowed and looked at Yun Xiulan carefully and tentatively replied: "My thoughts."
Yun Xiulan's expression softened immediately, and her tone became even softer, "Okay then."
Ning Xiyue saw the change in her mother and understood the reason, so she asked with a smile: "Mom, if I say it was A Yan's idea, would you have to go fight him?"
"Isn't it because I'm worried that the other party is hanging you and afraid that you'll be deceived again? If that's what he thinks, I'll definitely go and ask him."
But when she knew it was her daughter's idea, she was no longer worried. There was nothing she could do about it. Her daughter was the most important to her. Everyone has their own relationship with their children, so they protect them.
"But Xiaoji is a good kid. Mom is overly worried. He looks like an honest and reliable kid. If you don't want to get married now, you should discuss it with Xiaoji and don't cause any conflicts. If that doesn't work, Mom will talk to him for you."
Ning Xiyue thought happily that her mother was quite hypocritical. Her ideas were acceptable, but Ji Yanming's ideas were not. Well, she liked it.
Then Ning Xiyue patted Yun Xiulan's hand and said sincerely:
"Mom, don't worry about it. This is something we have already discussed. He agreed and has told his family about it. We are both still young, so we have plenty of time in the future. We know what to do at different ages. We won't get married for at least a year, and we'll see how things go later."
"That's good. I'm relieved. Go prepare the gifts for your visit. I'll go see how your brother is cooking lunch."
Yun Xiulan relaxed, stood up and trotted to the kitchen.
Ning Xiyue smiled and shook her head, walked towards the room where the dry goods were kept, took a large sack, stood in front of the dry goods and started to pick.
Bring a bag of hazelnuts, a bag of dried black fungus, a bag of dried matsutake mushrooms, a bag of dried morels, and a piece of dried ginseng.
Then she bought a set of the three-piece skin care product that she had made herself and had traded with her eldest sister-in-law's mother, and a jar of the medicated mud mask that her second brother had used before.
As for the gift for my uncle, it was a bottle of homemade sorghum wine.
If it’s a little too little, then have another can of self-roasted tea leaves.
Ning Xiyue entered the space with her consciousness and directed 001 in the space to pick the tender leaves of Yunwu Tea from a wild tea tree that had been dug up in the mountains.
This tea tree was probably grown by birds in the mountains that ate tea seeds. She found a small tea sapling when she followed Chen Yechu to the mountains to look for ice powder seeds in the summer.
She immediately dug it up and planted it in the space. She tried making milk tea with it and it tasted very good, more fragrant than the tea made in milk tea shops in later generations. Paired with fresh milk from the milk station, the taste was unforgettable.
It was just a small seedling as tall as a calf at first, but now it has grown into a tall tea tree in her space with lush branches and leaves. There are also some small tea trees growing around it, and a lot of high-quality tea can be picked.
Just a moment later, 001 came over with a large basket of tea.
"Master, I have already picked 20 kilograms of young buds, which can produce 2 kilograms of tea. Do you need to pick more?"
"No need to pick it, just give it to me."
Ning Xiyue took the tender buds and smelled them. They had a very refreshing smell.
Next is to fry the tea leaves.
Of course she didn't stir-fry the tea. There was no Yun Food Processing Factory at that time, so she had to stir-fry the tea herself. A lot of the tea leaves were burnt, but fortunately it was for making milk tea, so the quality of the tea was not a big deal.
But it’s different when sending gifts to elders now. This kind of work requires superb tea-frying skills so as not to waste these top-quality young buds. It’s better to leave it to professionals.
Ning Xiyue directly spent ten points to send the tea to the Yun Food Processing Factory for processing. Tea is also an imported product and can barely be considered as a food and can be processed and fried.
In five minutes, Ning Xiyue received the freshly-baked tea, which was packed in an iron can and divided into two cans, each weighing one kilogram.
Ning Xiyue took out both cans of tea, put one into the sack, and went out with the other in her hand.
Seeing my father digging the ground with the hoe that my eldest brother had just bought today, I shouted, "Dad, I found a can of tea, wild tea from the mountains, and put it on the table for you."
"Okay, leave it there. I'll make some tea."
When Ning Hai heard about the wild tea leaves, his eyes lit up. He put down the hoe and prepared to wash his hands and make tea.
When Ning Xiyue saw her father was happy, she also smiled happily.
Carrying a snakeskin bag, he went aside to do some simple packing.
Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Wrap everything in some oil paper and tie a red string and it will immediately look presentable. The grade of the item will be raised immediately, and it will be a perfect New Year gift.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Ji Yanming came in the car driven by Datou to pick up Ning Xiyue and her two siblings to move their luggage.
Of course, the main people who moved the luggage were the eldest and second brothers. Ning Xiyue’s main task was to carry a bunch of gifts and go to meet her parents with a nervous heart.
It was the first time for her to meet her parents, and she was a little nervous. Looking at the road outside the window, she felt a little excited.
