"Today is the coming-of-age ceremony, and I hope everyone enjoys the food and has fun."
As soon as Jing Fangchun finished speaking, Jing Zhiwan beside him suggested: "Father, why don't we play a game to liven up the atmosphere."
Jing Fangchun nodded and said, "Okay, Wan'er, you arrange it."
Jing Zhiwan smiled slightly and said, "Then let's play a game of pitching pots. Everyone will compete in groups to see who can throw the most."
The guests responded one after another, and Wei Ersao also became interested and said, "I am really good at this pitching pot. Today I will let everyone see it."
Everyone was divided into several groups and started the pot-tossing competition.
Wei Ersao confidently picked up the arrow, aimed at the mouth of the pot, and threw it hard, but the arrow went far away.
She smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not lucky today. I made some mistakes."
Seeing this, Wei Yunrou couldn't help laughing: "Second sister-in-law, you need to practice more on your pitching skills."
Wei Ersao glared at Wei Yunrou and said, "What are you laughing at, little girl? Wait and see what I have to say."
It was Jing Zhiwan's turn to play pot toss. She picked up the arrow and threw it gently, and the arrow landed steadily in the pot.
She smiled and said, "Master Wei, come and give it a try."
Wei Che picked up the arrow, aimed at the mouth of the pot casually, and threw it lightly. The arrow fell steadily into the pot.
Jing Zhiwan's eyes flashed with surprise, and she said, "Master Wei is really good at fighting."
Wei Che responded politely: "Miss Jing, you are too kind. It's just luck."
Everyone had lunch at the governor's house before saying goodbye and leaving.
After returning to the Wei family, Madam Wei was very satisfied with what happened today: "Today at the Governor's Mansion, everyone behaved very well and did not bring shame to the Wei family."
Sister-in-law Wei San also said, "Yes, Miss Jing's coming-of-age ceremony was very grand, and we also got to experience the customs and folkways of Youzhou."
Wei Che sat aside, frowning slightly, as if he had something on his mind.
Su Huaiyue noticed his expression and felt a little confused, but did not ask any more questions.
After a few days, the house was almost built. Su Huaiyue thought of going to the market early in the morning to see if there were any good materials and buy some household items.
Wei Che had just finished instructing the craftsman and saw her about to go out, so he went up to her and asked, "Where are you going?"
Su Huaiyue smiled and said, "The house is almost finished, so we need some new things to decorate it and make it look more festive."
Wei Che nodded and said, "I'll go with you. There's strength in numbers, and I can help you get some things."
Su Huaiyue was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of joy: "Okay, with your help, it will be a lot easier."
The two of them took a carriage to the market, which was bustling with people coming and going.
Su Huaiyue and Wei Che walked between the stalls, picking out the items they liked.
Su Huaiyue looked at the various items in front of her, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes: "There are so many types of materials. I don't know how to choose for a moment."
Wei Che smiled slightly and said, "What kind of ones do you like? I'll give you some advice."
Su Huaiyue nodded and began to choose carefully.
She picked up a piece of blue material, stroked it gently, and said, "This blue material looks quite simple and elegant. It's suitable for making curtains or draperies."
Wei Che took the material, looked at it carefully, and said, "The texture of this material is good, and the color is simple and elegant. It is indeed suitable for making curtains. However, isn't this color a little too plain?"
Su Huaiyue thought for a moment and said, "Yes, the house still needs some bright colors to decorate it."
The two continued to choose. Su Huaiyue picked up a piece of red material, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "This red material looks very festive. It is suitable for making some bed curtains or tablecloths."
Wei Che took the material, looked at it carefully, and said, "The color of this material is indeed bright and the texture is good. Let's buy some of this red material."
Su Huaiyue nodded, handed the material to the stall owner, and said, "Please weigh this red material."
The stall owner said, "Miss Su, this material is for you."
Su Huaiyue handed the stall owner five taels of silver and said, "Thank you very much, but I'll charge you normally."
The stall owner quickly said, "Miss Su is very polite. You have helped us so much. My grandmother and son's illnesses were cured by you. This little bit of material is nothing."
Su Huaiyue felt somewhat helpless and laughed, "If every one of you is like this, how can I dare to go to the market to buy things in the future?"
The stall owner saw that Su Huaiyue seemed a little embarrassed, so he finally gritted his teeth and weighed the items for her and took the money. Only then did Su Huaiyue give up.
Su Huaiyue took the material and continued to select other items with Wei Che.
They bought some porcelain, screens and other items, as well as some toys that the children liked.
Wei Che looked at Su Huaiyue's busy figure, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
He said softly, "You've worked hard today."
Su Huaiyue felt a little uncomfortable seeing his politeness, "We are all family, it's not hard at all."
Wei Che nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will help you decorate the house."
Su Huaiyue felt warm in her heart and said, "Okay."
After shopping, the two took a carriage back to the Wei family.
Su Huaiyue put the purchased items in order, and Wei Che helped to carry the heavy objects.
When Madam Wei saw the items Su Huaiyue bought, she was delighted: "Huaiyue, what you bought is really beautiful. This red material is perfect for the bed curtains."
Su Huaiyue smiled and said, "As long as grandma likes it, I'm glad. I also bought some porcelain and screens. Please take a look and see if you like them."
Madam Wei nodded and said, "The patterns on these porcelains are really beautiful, and the design on this screen is also exquisite. You really have good taste."
"As long as grandma likes it, I'm glad. I also bought some toys that children like. Zhi'er and Li'er should like them."
Madam Wei nodded and said, "You are so thoughtful. The children will definitely like these toys."
Su Huaiyue looked at Madam Wei's happy expression and felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart.
She knew that these items would not only make the house more beautiful, but also make her family happier.
According to the house she designed, each person had a separate room. The two children lived with her, and two small couches were placed separately in the room.
After buying some things for each room, Su Huaiyue distributed some silver and money to everyone and asked them to go to the market on their own tomorrow.
Mrs. Wei Er looked at the things on the floor and snorted, "I finally went out and bought so many things, and these are the only things you gave me."
Judging from the number of pieces, Wei Ersao does have the least, but the unit price is the most expensive.
Su Huaiyue tried her best to find the things she had arranged in the Wei family according to her memory. "Second brother and sister-in-law, Youzhou is not like the capital. Some things are not available here. It's good enough to have found these. I bought the things you used frequently in the capital. If you don't like them, you can return them tomorrow."
