The age of rebirth: I became a farmer's little koi

Chapter 20 Let nature take its course
Liu Xinyu didn't expect that the result would still not be as she wished. After two fights between Zhang and Liu's women, her engagement with Zhang Hongliang not only failed to be broken, but directly set the time for the engagement banquet.

She stood there numb, and no one asked her opinion?
With Zhang's affirmative answer, Chen Zhaodi was naturally happy, and quickly gave Liu Houxing a look.

The marriage contract between Liu Xinyu and Zhang Hongliang did not change again. Liu Houxing felt that his old feelings were open, and got hints from his wife, so he quickly let Zhang Daniu and Zhang Hongliang into Liu Xinyu's small courtyard.

Now that the Zhang family has set the time for the engagement banquet, the two families have to discuss the details again.

Liu Xinyu was dragged into her small courtyard by Chen Zhaodi's hand, and she still hasn't recovered from the development of the situation.

There are many things she can't figure out.

She could feel that Zhang Hongliang was as resistant to the engagement as she was, but after she yelled out the heartfelt intention of retiring, Zhang Hongliang made the opposite decision.

The city girl named Ma Li should like Zhang Hongliang very much, and she could even threaten Zhang Hongliang's job and future. hesitated.

However, Zhang Hongliang insisted on his marriage contract with Liu Xinyu, and in the end, the two families sat together and discussed the engagement banquet.

What went wrong?
Could it be that after Zhang Hongliang met Liu Xinyu, he opened up the second vein of Ren and Du, and suddenly became enlightened?

Liu Xinyu thought it was impossible!

Before Ma Li appeared, Zhang Hongliang didn't seem to intend to accept the engagement.

That's right, Zhang Hongliang's attitude changed after Ma Li appeared.It can be seen that the problem should lie with Ma Li.

Judging from Ma Li's clothes, her family conditions should be good, and her personal conditions are also good. Regardless of her appearance, body and age, she is more suitable than Liu Xinyu, and she is also a good match with Zhang Hongliang.

Liu Xinyu knew that Wu Qiaozhen had always hoped that Zhang Hongliang would find her a girl from the city.

Before Liu Qingshan's accident happened, Liu Xinyu listened to Zhang Hongyun's nagging a lot, and even heard Wu Qiaozhen talk about it with others.

It stands to reason that Zhang Hongliang should readily accept being pursued by such a city girl.

What is the reason for Zhang Hongliang to reject such a girl who has deep affection for him.

Liu Xinyu scratched her head in thought, but finally gave up.

Since the marriage contract cannot be dissolved for the time being, they can only let nature take its course, after all, it is just an engagement.

Instead of thinking about these things, it is better to think about those weird pictures that come out of your mind.

Liu Xinyu didn't bother with the marriage contract anymore, and she relaxed.

It's just that there are so many people in the family at the moment, it's not the time to calm down and think about something, so I simply followed Wang Sanmei to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Liu Qingshan is a very capable and diligent person. When he was young, he learned some kung fu from others. During the slack season, he often went hunting in the mountains with machetes, bows and arrows. He always brought back some prey every time, so the life at home was not bad. , you can have a meal of meat every three to five times, although Liu Qingshan has passed away for several months, there is still a piece of bacon from last year hanging on the beam of the kitchen.

But without Liu Qingshan, there would be no income, and the food at home was running out, and it was basically dried sweet potatoes and corn flour, and of course a small amount of fine flour and rice.

In the past, Liu Qingshan basically ate the coarse grains at home, while the fine noodles and rice were specially prepared for Liu Xinyu.

Not only the Liu family knew about the situation of the Liu family's father and daughter, but it was no secret in the village.

"Second Aunt, add more rice. There are too many dried sweet potatoes and you will burn your heart." Seeing that Sanmei Wang grabbed two handfuls of rice and washed them together with the dried sweet potatoes, Liu Xinyu couldn't help shaking her head, and went to the rice basket while Sanmei Wang was not paying attention. Put a few handfuls of rice in it.

"Oh, you girl!" Wang Sanmei shook her head and sighed as she looked at the rice that had been soaked by water, and then at the millet jar that didn't have much rice.

Although this was the first sweet potato rice that Liu Xinyu ate in this era, the sweet potato rice in my memory was really bad and heartburning.

Although the extra handfuls of rice didn't do much, it made Liu Xinyu feel better.

"Second Aunt, Sister Xinju really doesn't want to go to school anymore?" Liu Xinyu still knows how to light a big stove from memory, and asked while adding fire.

"Well, I won't go." Wang Sanmei wanted to say a few more words, but she thought that Liu Xinyu was a book lover, so she finally held back the words that came to her mouth.

For a girl in the country, it is good enough for her to study for a few years at home, how can she study until she graduates from high school like Liu Xinyu.

"Sister Xinju is only 11 years old, what can she do when she comes back, why not study for another year, at least finish elementary school." Liu Xinyu tried to persuade her after thinking for a while.

"11 years old is not young. Although I can't do the work in the field, I can take my fourth child to wash clothes at home, so I can free up my hands to fight for work points. Besides, let her study for another year, so what, in the end it is not someone else's. People." Wang Sanmei put some oil into the pot while talking, and felt that there was too much oil, so she shoveled it back with a shovel, and Liu Xinyu wanted to shake her head.

However, there is only a little bit of meat oil on the thumb and finger, but Wang Sanmei still thinks it is too much. Can such a dish be delicious?

There is really no oil or water at all!

Liu Xinyu opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't speak, just pretending she didn't see it.

Today, I have already cut a few slices of bacon and steamed it in the rice, and it is considered meaty, so if I ask Wang Sanmei to put more oil, I will definitely have to nag again.

Liu Xinyu didn't want to give up on Liu Xinju's study, but wanted to fight for Liu Xinju again.

In her impression, Liu Xinju has good academic performance and loves reading.

It's a pity that most people in this era favor boys over girls, and the nine-year compulsory education has not yet started, so Liu Xinyu failed to convince Wang Sanmei.

The girls in the countryside are really pitiful. There are not many girls like Liu Xinju who have studied for several years, and girls like Liu Xinyu who can study until they graduate from high school are even rarer.

There are seven or eight girls in Liu Xinyu's class, but only Liu Xinyu has a rural household registration, and the others are urban household registrations where their parents have jobs.

Liu Xinyu is from the future, so of course she knows that the country will resume the college entrance examination in a few months.

Liu Xinyu felt very sorry for not being able to persuade Wang Sanmei, but she couldn't force it, so she could only sigh secretly.

Forget it, let it be!

There are four children in the second uncle's family. The eldest, Liu Xinjian, is two years younger than Liu Xinyu and is 14 years old this year.

The 11-year-old Liu Xinju is the second child, the third child Liu Xinyao is seven years old, and the fourth child Liu Xincheng is only three years old.

There are many children, and the burden is of course heavy. In this era when we can only compete for work points, even with the help of Liu Houxing and Chen Zhaodi, it is really difficult to feed and clothe the whole family.

It's understandable for Wang Sanmei to want to spare her hands to fight for work points, but it's a pity for Liu Xinju.
