A car accident, our family of three crossed

Yang Yang's eyes lit up, staring at the banknotes Song Ning handed over, "Mother, how much are these?"

"Count it yourself!" Song Ning said, handing him the banknote.

They had all taught their children to recognize the common currency of that era, so Yangyang knew it just by counting it.

There were only three silver notes in total, but the denominations were different, one hundred taels silver note, and two ten taels silver notes.

"Mom, it's one hundred and twenty taels." Yangyang shouted excitedly. It was a lot of money! He earned it all.

"Yes! Yangyang is really amazing. He can actually make so much money." Song Ning hugged him for a while before letting him go. "This is the money you earned yourself, so Daddy and Mommy decided to give it to you to keep. Hurry up and keep it!"

Yangyang is not really only three years old. His soul is already five years old. He can understand many things and has some understanding of the concept of money. "But, mother, there is so much money. What if I lose it?"

Song Ning thought for a moment and thought it was not appropriate to let the child manage so much money, so he said, "How about you give the piggy bank to mother to keep for you? When you need it, you can ask mother for it."

"Well! Okay, then mother, please keep it for me!" Yangyang nodded heavily.

Song Ning put some copper coins and small change in an ordinary box in case the child often wanted to use the money to buy snacks or toys. The rest was put into a piggy bank and hidden in a secret compartment.

After putting the money jar away, Song Ning took Yangyang aside and reminded him of many things, such as not to show off one's wealth to outsiders, not to brag about how much money one has in front of outsiders, and not to tell others that one can make money by painting, etc.

Yangyang nodded in agreement and repeated what she said. Only then did Song Ning let him go out to play with his friends.

After August, September came. At the beginning of September, Shangtang Village welcomed a happy event, that is, the Sun family was going to marry their daughter.

The day before the wedding, the bride-to-be had to be given some makeup, and neighbors all went to the Sun family to congratulate her.

The etiquette of adding makeup is for good luck. Some people give a purse, some give a handkerchief, which is considered a favor.

On this day, Xu also took time out to visit the Sun family. She gave Sun Baomei a round fan that she had embroidered herself. After some time of contact, her embroidery skills were obvious to all.

Xiao He also presented a sachet, saying that she had learned how to make sachets when she was a maid in a wealthy family, so she could offer her gratitude by borrowing flowers from others.

Song Ning went there in the evening. She gave me a pair of silver earrings, which was the heaviest makeup I had among people from other families.

"This is also the first time I'm adding makeup to a married girl. I don't know if you like it, so I picked a pair of earrings. I hope you like it."

"Thank you, sister-in-law. They are so beautiful. I love them so much." Sun Baomei held the pair of earrings and looked at them, liking them very much.

"As long as you like it."

Before this, Song Ning had specifically inquired about what Shi Tou Niang would give as a gift, for he was afraid that his gift would be too expensive and would outshine his own sister-in-law, which would be bad.

After learning that Shi Tou Niang had reluctantly used her long-saved private money to buy a pair of bracelets, she went to Jubao Pavilion to pick out a pair of earrings.

It’s not heavy, but it’s exquisitely made and it catches your eye immediately. No wonder Sun Baomei likes it so much.

Even Shi Tou Niang, who was standing by, liked it very much and immediately asked Sun Bao Mei to put it on so that they could see it.

Sun Baomei was coaxed into putting on the earrings shyly. The exquisitely crafted earrings fit her delicate earlobes very well.

"Oh! It's beautiful, so beautiful." Shi Tou Niang kept praising it. After praising her sister-in-law, she turned around and praised Song Ning for her good taste in picking such a beautiful pair of earrings.

When Sun Baomei got married, the Sun family invited the aunt of the old patriarch to come as the hostess and comb Sun Baomei's hair.

Originally, my aunt refused. A person who is blessed with happiness must have both parents alive, both sons and daughters, and a harmonious marriage. Only then can she be considered a person who is blessed with happiness. She is already so old and her parents have passed away. How can she be considered a person who is blessed with happiness?

But the Sun family doesn't care about these things. Everyone will grow old, get sick and die, let alone the elderly. They only know how their uncle and aunt behave in their daily lives.

She is kind and benevolent. The old patriarch at home respects her, her son and daughter-in-law are filial to her, and her grandson is also promising. She is undoubtedly the most blessed old woman in the village. Who else can we invite if not her to be the blessed one?

Under the insistence of the Sun family and the persuasion of several daughters-in-law, my aunt finally agreed.

Before the fifth watch, when it was still completely dark outside, Sun Baomei had already been pulled out of bed and started to take a bath and change clothes.

There aren't so many things to pay attention to in a rural farm, but you still have to follow the necessary procedures.

Get up early, bathe, dress, and do your makeup so that you have more time and don't get rushed when the time comes.

After taking a bath and getting dressed, it was time to start putting on makeup. Song Ning volunteered to take on this job.

Sun Baomei is good-looking, and with the right makeup, she looks particularly bright and charming.

The relatives and friends who were surrounding her were stunned for a moment when they saw how beautiful Sun Baomei looked with makeup on.

"Oh! What a beautiful lady! My dear, you are so pretty."

"Isn't it? Our Baomei is such a beautiful bride. Tonight is her wedding night. The groom will be stunned."

Everyone was full of praise, and at the same time they couldn't help teasing Sun Baomei, making her blush and her heart beat fast, feeling very embarrassed.

Sun Baomei couldn't take her eyes off herself in the bronze mirror. She never knew she could be so pretty. She said shyly, "It's because of my sister-in-law's good craftsmanship."

"Even if my skills are good, the bride has to be able to handle the makeup!" Song Ning said modestly, and then said: "As long as you are good at makeup, no matter how good my skills are, it can only be icing on the cake. You have fair skin, so you only need to draw eyebrows and put on some lip balm to look good."

While Song Ning was teaching Sun Baomei some makeup techniques, the people around her listened attentively, and then secretly memorized them in their hearts, so that they could learn to dress up themselves in the future.

When her aunt came over, Sun Baomei had already finished putting on her makeup and the only thing left was to comb her hair.

As soon as you enter the door and see Sun Baomei, your eyes light up.

The aunt who came with my uncle and aunt exclaimed in amazement, and said jokingly with a smile: "Oh! Whose beautiful girl is this? Why is she so pretty?"

Every time someone came, she would praise her as a beautiful lady. In short, the blush on Sun Baomei's little face never faded. The aunt was a lucky person invited by the family, so Sun Baomei had to stand up and greet her.

"Hey! Good, good child." The aunt was very happy to see such a cute little girl, and helped her up lovingly.
