After dressing as a peasant woman, I tried my best to clean up

Chapter 19

Li Fanghua thought about it, and always felt that Li Erlang was hiding something from her.
I thought I would ask Li Erlang early the next morning, is there any matter that I can't solve by talking about it?
But early in the morning, people disappeared~
"Damei, where did Erlang go this morning, did you see it?" Li Fanghua asked Damei, who was the earliest in the family,

"Second uncle got up early in the morning and went up the mountain, and didn't even eat breakfast." Da Mei said,

"It's too early!" Li Fanghua secretly said: It seems that Li Erlang is really short of money~
"Who says it's not? My second uncle gets up early and stays late at night. He goes to the mountains earlier than usual, but he comes back very late." Damei said,
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested. Li Hua was sure that Li Erlang had something to do.

What will happen?Let him get up early and work late?
It stands to reason that Li Erlang doesn't need to spend a lot of money on food and lodging at home, and he doesn't have any bad habits of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, so this money - can only be for Xiaozao!

Thinking of this, Li Fanghua quickly asked Damei: "Damei, do you know what happened to the Zhou family recently?"

Da Mei shook her head and said, "During this time, I have been taking care of Eldest Sister at home and never went out."

"Mom, I know!" Li Xiaolan came over and said,

"Then tell me about it." Li Fanghua said,
"There is a piece of news in the Zhou family. Do you want to hear it or not? If you want to hear it~ Mother, can I stop doing the dishes today?" Li Xiaolan discussed the conditions.
"If you don't want to tell me, if you don't tell me, I will ask other people. I think many people in the village will be willing to tell me." Li Fanghua is not used to her bad habit of talking about conditions.

"Okay, okay, do you want to be angry? Let me tell you!" Li Xiaolan hurriedly grabbed Li Fanghua,

Li Fanghua looked at Li Xiaolan, and Li Xiaolan said: "I heard that the little sister of the Zhou family is engaged, and she is engaged to the town next door. It is said that she hired ten taels. It is very beautiful!"

"What about the jujube?" Li Fanghua asked subconsciously,
"What's the matter with Xiaozao? That Xiaozao has a birthmark on her face, and it's a fate that no one wants, but I heard that Xiaozao was severely beaten by her father for some reason. I got a beating." Li Xiaolan said,
"Is the injury serious?" Li Fanghua asked hurriedly,

"I heard it was quite serious. The screaming was very miserable that day. After that, I didn't see Xiaozao for several days." Li Xiaolan said,
Yes!Li Erlang's current desperate efforts are probably due to this incident. He wants to marry Xiaozao in earlier and leave that house, right?

Li Fanghua thought about going back to her room. Li Fanghua didn't know how much the job would cost, but just now I heard from Xiaolan that it would cost ten taels, so what should I do?
Inadvertently, she saw the silver bracelet!
This silver bracelet was not sold by the original owner during the most difficult time in the world. It must be a very important thing or a gift from a very important person, right?
However, Li Fanghua is not the original owner, she has no feelings for the original owner, she just thinks that people are more important than money!

So she decided to pawn the bracelet away!
But it is always unsafe to go to the town with a big silver bracelet in her arms, so she called Li Dalang together,
Before leaving, she called Li Zhao and said, "Xiao Zhao, take your two younger sisters and wait at the entrance of the village. When you see your second uncle coming back, tell him that grandma has gone to the Zhou family to propose a marriage, and let him go there quickly. Do you live?"

Li Zhao nodded, and Li Fanghua dragged Li Dalang to the town,
When Li Dalang and Li Fanghua stood at the door of the pawn shop together, he still asked in surprise: "Mother, what are you going to pawn?"

"I plan to pawn this silver bracelet and use it for Erlang's betrothal." Li Fanghua took out the bracelet and said,
"Ah~ Isn't this your most precious thing? When our family was in the most difficult time, you have always gritted your teeth and kept it. You said that this is the only thought that father left you." Li Dalang was a little unbelievable, how could his mother be willing to be pawned?
"Well, it's good that the memories are in my heart, Li Fanghua said with pretended sadness: "If mother had become a bracelet back then, she wouldn't have sent Erlang away, causing him to separate from mother. Now he needs money and plans to venture into the mountains. Mother thought about it, and decided to make a bracelet to help him, forgetting the regrets of the year. "

"I can see Erlang's thoughts to some extent, but the time is not so urgent, right? Let's wait until autumn, and we will have money from selling grain, so it's not too late to go to Zhou's house." Li Dalang suggested,
Yes, as the eldest brother, he still cares about his younger brother, so when he happened to see Li Erlang and Xiao Zao together, he guessed it was just Xiao Zao, and he felt a little uncomfortable, and he was afraid that his mother would object. , just never said,
"You didn't see that Erlang is working hard to make money from morning to night, and I'm worried that something will happen to him one day. Let's help him and settle this matter as soon as possible, so that he won't have to work so hard." Li Fanghua said,

"I listen to mother." Li Dalang said, he has no objection, just like what mother just said, if he was willing to part with this bracelet back then, why did Erlang commit such a serious crime?

The mother and son agreed and walked into the pawn shop together. The silver bracelet was very honest, pawned a full ten taels!

After taking the money and walking out, Li Fanghua and Li Dalang bought simple gifts, wrote the letter of engagement, and then went to the village lady Ma,
Seeing Li Fanghua approaching, Mrs. Ma panicked and said, "Big sister, you can't kill people like hell, why don't you chase me home and beat me up! Besides, I really didn't promise Xiaolan anything."

"Old sister, you misunderstood, I came here today to find you." Li Fanghua quickly explained,
"Could it be that you are really looking for a husband for your family's Dalan?" Mrs. Ma asked with a frown. It's not easy to find Dalan alone!

"Of course not, it's like this, it's for my Erlang." Li Fanghua said,

Mrs. Ma also breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, Li Dalan is really not easy to find a husband, but Li Erlang?It is possible!
After all, he has the ability to hunt, and the family has a lot of land. The younger brother is studying and heard that he has a good future. Li Erlang himself is also good-looking. It is easy to find a girl who is similar!

In the end, before Mrs. Ma praised how many beautiful girls she has, Li Fanghua said: "We have taken a fancy to Zhou Xiaozao from Zhou's family in our village, please help me to talk."

"What? You're not kidding, are you?" Mrs. Ma looked disbelieving,
"Of course not." Li Fanghua said affirmatively,
"Do you know what happened to Zhou's Xiaozao?" Mrs. Ma reconfirmed, don't regret the embarrassment of a village at that time,
"I don't know if I live in this village, but I don't believe it, and our Erlang just likes her." Li Fanghua also told the truth,

"Your Li Erlang is really a very special young man." Mrs. Ma said, his taste is strong enough, he likes ugly and stubborn girls!
Li Fanghua could only laugh along, she didn't know how to evaluate it,

"Okay, then let's take a walk together today." Madam Ma got up and said,
So Li Dalang took the gift and went to Zhou's house with Li Fanghua and Ma Pozi.
"Brother Zhou is also at home, that's just right, I have something to talk to you and your wife." Mrs. Ma stepped forward to say hello,

Xiaozao's father and Mrs. Zhou saw Mrs. Ma coming, followed by Li Dalang and Li Fanghua, and they were puzzled and asked: "Sister Ma, why are you free? I have agreed in advance, our little sister But it's promised, you came here yesterday to watch the excitement."

"Of course it's not about my younger sister, it's about Xiaozao." Mrs. Ma said with a smile,
"Xiaozao?" Dad Xiaozao looked at Li Fanghua and Li Dalang standing beside him, and frowned: "Isn't it Old Li's house?"

"That's right, the sisters of the Li family personally entrusted me to come on a blind date. You see, they came to the door with gifts, how sincere!" Mrs. Ma said with a smile,
After hearing this, Old Man Zhou said angrily, "Even though we, Xiaozao, have a bad face and are celibate, we will never be Li Dalang's concubine!"

In one sentence, everyone was stunned!
