The continuous drought has somewhat affected the young man's ability to find a wife.

Li Qiusui blamed the drought for her brother's failure to find a wife.

Li Changshan will be in the new year, at this age, the marriage should have been settled long ago.

The current conditions of Li Sanzhu's family are not worse than those of rich households in ordinary county towns. Li Changshan is the eldest son of the family. He went to the town to study for a few years. It's still a young couple who are compatible, and they both prefer reading and literacy.

Reading and reading requires a lot of pen and ink for books, and most families are willing to devote their entire family's resources to sending their male sons to study in the hope that they will become famous, honor their families, and feed back their families in the future.As for the girl's family, in most people's minds, they are considered a good family if they will marry sooner or later, have enough to eat and drink, and are not treated harshly.

Wouldn't it be worrying to find Li Changshan a daughter-in-law who could read and write?
Girls in the countryside have no conditions to study, and there are many girls studying in towns and counties, but people like Li Sanzhu are like nouveau riche in the eyes of others, isn't it difficult for people?
Li Qiusui saw Liu Shi closed the door and chatted with the matchmaker in the room for a long time, and then politely sent him outside the gate.

When the Liu family entered their courtyard, Li Qiusui finally couldn't help but persuade him: "Mother, eldest brother is only seventeen, don't worry about marrying a daughter-in-law!"

Mrs. Liu glared at her, "Go to the village and see, which 17-year-old guy hasn't married a wife yet? They are so quick-witted that a baby can run all over the ground to help pick chickens. It's the one who hasn't married yet. The one who wants to be a daughter-in-law has already been settled, and they can marry if they say they marry. What about your eldest brother in our family, the candidate has not yet been found, and he is not in a hurry with his meek temper. grandson..."

This is really speechless.

Li Qiusui was afraid that her mother would never end, so he hurriedly grabbed Li Changshan, who was called "warm" by the Liu family, "Brother, that Aunt Hua hasn't gone far, so hurry up and talk to her so that you can marry a sister-in-law and go home. We don't pick and choose, let her be blind and lame, as long as she can give birth to grandchildren for our mother."

Liu was so angry that she wanted to slap someone with a slap.

Li Changshan blocked Liu Shi, he was helpless, he just rushed over to have a look when he heard that there was a matchmaker coming, "Mother, you and dad can decide the marriage, as long as you like it, the girl has a good heart, but she can't read, we It’s never too late to learn after marrying back home.”

His mother was illiterate at first, and after a few years of learning, she could read books now. In his opinion, as long as a girl's family is of good character, other things are not that important.

Liu's heart felt at ease when her son spoke, and she couldn't help feeling a new worry, "Chang Shan, are you in a hurry to marry a wife?"

The little girl's words are irritating, but she also wants to find a good wife to match her son. Liu Shi does not admit that she is high-minded. Words, looking for a daughter-in-law without picking their appearance first, you can't be worse than them in knowledge.

Fearing that her son might make a mistake, Liu warned, "Let me tell you Li Changshan, our family doesn't like concubines like whole houses! Don't just rely on having two coins in your pocket, just follow the example of the young masters in the city. !"

Li Qiusui saw that Liu's posture was endless, so he quickly winked at her brother, and then slipped away against the wall.

Li Changshan glared at her, he really wasn't in a hurry to marry a wife, but if he messed with his mother, today's topic would be endless.

"Where is the mother thinking, the son is a man, it doesn't matter if it is later, the eldest sister Xia He is also a 13-year-old girl, if there is a suitable one, it will be settled first."

This is why Mrs. Liu was so anxious to get angry. The children below were next to each other...

Using his elder sister as an excuse, he finally distracted his mother's attention, Li Changshan heaved a sigh of relief, and followed Li Qiusui out.

Li Qiusui walked slowly, Li Changshan caught up with him, and the brother and sister walked out side by side.

Li Qiusui took a look at the sky, "Brother, heavy rain is coming, there is nothing to worry about at home, but the fourth brother is still in the county, let's bring him back tomorrow."

Li Chang'an's school will be on vacation the day after tomorrow, and he will probably go home the day after tomorrow. The heavy rain will start to fall tomorrow night, and Li Qiusui didn't say anything. It's not that the county town of Li Chang'an is in danger, or that the rain will not be small. At this time, the family When people are together, Li Qiusui feels at ease.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, Li Changan was alone at home, and Li Changshan was also worried about his younger brother, "Then let's pick him up later tomorrow."

……

The next day, the weather became even hotter. After noon, the brothers and sisters drove to the city in a carriage.

Li Changan said that he was studying in a school in the county seat, but it was actually at his husband's home.Mr. is more than one student. If there are many students, a special room should be opened. If the knowledge of the students is uneven, the teaching should be separated, so an additional room should be opened.

Over time, more and more students were admitted, and some of them were admitted as scholars.

The greater the reputation, the more students, which forms a school.

Li Changshan hadn't been studying in the town two years ago, he would come here to give Li Changan some things from time to time, and Li Qiusui also came here a few times.

Most of the county towns are brick and tile houses, and the school is no exception. The doors and windows are larger than the ones in the house, and the white window lattice paper is pasted, which makes it look much cleaner and brighter.

The brothers and sisters found Li Changan and explained their intentions. Li Changan pondered for a moment. The news about the heavy rain in the county town was even worse than the rumors in Lijiacun.

Knowing that the family members are worried, and there is no delay in going home and studying, Li Changan said: "Brother and Sui Sui are waiting for me for a while, sir is resting in the front yard, I will go over and say something."

Naturally, if you ask for leave, you have to inform your husband. Li Changshan urged, "Then you go and have a look. If you are taking a break, you can talk about it later. It doesn't matter if we wait for a while."

This side also said to wait outside, there was a woman leading two girls past, Li Chang'an turned his back to the visitor, Li Changshan and Li Qiusui stood opposite him.

Li Changshan had seen the woman before, and knew that this was Li Changan's teacher's wife, so he hurriedly saluted first, "I have seen the lady."

In fact, it is more appropriate for Li Changshan to call a woman his wife, because Li Changan's teacher's wife is quite knowledgeable, and she can call calligraphy, Danqing, including the Four Books and Five Classics at her fingertips.As for Li Chang'an's husband, he thinks highly of his wife, and is introduced by outsiders, including students in the school, to address him as Ms.

The woman had a gentle face, and she showed a free and easy energy in her gestures.

She saw the three brothers and sisters from a distance, Li Chang'an was her husband's favorite student, she had naturally seen the eldest brother in the family, and the little girl next to her should also be the younger sister in the family.

"It's Chang'an's elder brother! Why are you standing at the gate of the courtyard, hurry into the room and talk."

Li Changshan still wanted to refuse.

"Mr. Chang'an is out on business, and he will be home in a while. It's hot and sweltering today! Follow me into the house and have a cup of herbal tea!"
