Lin Dajiao lives alone in the west of the village, not close to the neighbors' houses. In addition to tending the three acres of land in front of and behind the house, Chunqiu also goes to the mountains to pick some mountain products and sell them in the city. She lives a comfortable life.

Lin Xiaoman yelled outside: "Da Jiao Gu, are you home?"

"Who is it?" Lin Dajiao answered from inside, and the person had already come out.

Seeing Lin Xiaoman standing on tiptoe outside the door, Lin Dajiao smiled, "Oh, it's Xiaoman, what kind of wind brought you here today. It's cold outside, come in and sit down."

After speaking, he opened the door, took Lin Xiaoman's hand and dragged him into the room.

"Don't tell me, the heated kang you made is really good. Since the kang was built at home, this winter will not be sad. Otherwise, how many people will freeze to death in this heavy snow."

"I didn't do it, I also read it in a book, and it must be that Uncle Daqiang has a vision. As soon as I say it, he will take our villagers to do it. Useless."

Lin Dajiao was still a little happy when Lin Xiaoman praised her elder brother.

In the past, Lin Xiaoman and Lin Dajiao didn't have much contact, they only knew that she was a very neat woman.

In the beginning, because she was never married, there was a lot of gossip in the village. Later, she broke down several houses, and with the support of the patriarch's family, gradually no one dared to use her as an issue.

Although Lin Xiaoman didn't feel bad for her, it was only to the extent that he would scream when he met her.This was the first time I came here specifically to find her, and I didn't want her to boast as soon as they met, making Lin Xiaoman feel a little embarrassed.

Lin Dajiao lived by herself, so she only built a main room and a stove room. Now that the stove room is not in use, the main room has a kang, and a stove is built outside, so another main room was built.

There was a tall pile of firewood piled up in the yard, all of which were cut by Lin Dajiao himself, and it would not be a problem to burn them for several years.

Entering the room, the heat blowing against Lin Xiaoman's cotton padded clothes felt a bit unbearable.

Fortunately, there were no outsiders in Lin Dajiao's house, so Lin Xiaoman simply took off the outer padded jacket, revealing the little jacket inside.

Lin Dajiao went outside to make a bowl of sugar water and handed it to Lin Xiaoman, "Drink some sugar water and sweeten your mouth."

After Lin Xiaoman took the sugar water, she picked up Lin Xiaoman's cotton coat and touched it again and again, "Xiaoman, your winter coat is really thick, what's in it?"

Lin Xiaoman didn't want to hide it either, "I bought it from the pier and said it was called cotton. I also bought a lot of cotton seeds, and I'm thinking of planting some in the spring of next year. Dajiaogu, do you want to plant them with me?" ?”

Lin Dajiao's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Okay, I still want to grow the peppers of your family. I heard from my elder brother that your family wants to find people from the village to grow them together next year. Can I count it?"

Lin Xiaoman nodded, "Succeed! Besides pepper, I have other things I want to plant, but Dajiaogu's land is a little less, so I'm afraid I won't be able to plant so much."

Lin Dajiao didn't care when she heard this, "There are so many wastelands in the village, at worst, I'll buy two yuan."

After finishing speaking, Lin Dajiao asked: "Xiao Man, don't you just want to talk to me about farming?"

Lin Xiaoman wanted to shake his head, but thought that there were some things that he couldn't say too bluntly, so he nodded again, "Dajiaogu, I think there will be many people growing peppers in the village next year, but I still have several high-yield new crops that I want to find." people, but the income from growing grain is definitely not as much as that of peppers, I just want everyone in the village to plant an acre or two of new grain with the family, and even if the year is not so good this year, they won’t be unable to eat.”

Lin Dajiao nodded, "Xiaoman is very thoughtful, okay, I will plant whatever you want, and I will plant it with you."

After saying this, Lin Xiaoman changed the topic, "Gu, if you want to open up wasteland this year, you have to find someone to open up the wasteland first, otherwise when the snow melts, if everyone in the village wants to open up the wasteland, then you want to find someone to open up the wasteland." It will be difficult."

Lin Dajiao was a little anxious when Lin Xiaoman reminded her, "Xiaoman, sit down first, I'll go and ask, and first appoint someone to help me open up wasteland."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly wanted to go out, but was stopped by Lin Xiaoman: "Girl, don't worry, I have a few candidates here, why don't you take a look first?"

Lin Dajiao turned back, stared at Lin Xiaoman and beckoned her to say.

Lin Xiaoman snapped his fingers and counted the names of Xu's family members, they were all brothers who were close to Xu Qiuliang, and finally mentioned Xu Qiuliang.

Originally, Lin Dajiao was still nodding her head, but when she heard Xu Qiuliang's name, she immediately shook her head, "Mr. Xu can't do it!"

The corners of Lin Xiaoman's mouth twitched. Before she could talk about her marriage, Xu Qiuliang got a bad evaluation from Lin Dajiao. It was really not a good start.

Fortunately, Lin Dajiao didn't mean anything else, she just said: "He is a teacher, with a thin skin and tender flesh, how can he get the strength to work? No, no, I can't bear to let him work."

Yo, is this distressing?
Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up, but he sighed, "That's right, but it's not easy for Mr. Xu. He was exiled to our place by the imperial court. He didn't know the place well. Although he was single and had brothers to help him, he didn't know where he was. They all take care of the family, and there is no one around him who knows the cold and the hot, and according to the county magistrate, he wants to find him a wife in our village."

Lin Dajiao didn't expect to hear such gossip from Lin Xiaoman, and she became interested, "Mr. Xu is a scholar, even if he is in trouble, he can't look down on our country girls? Besides, everyone in our village is more rude than the other. How can it suit him?"

Lin Xiaoman waved his hand, "My aunt also said that he is in trouble. He himself is a man who doesn't work hard and doesn't know the five grains. Really find him a cute girl, and the two of them can drink the wind together? The county magistrate just wants to give him Find someone who can take care of things, and grab him at home and abroad, it is best to manage Mr. Xu submissively."

Lin Dajiao thought of several candidates in her mind, but she rejected them all. There is really no unmarried young girl in the village who is like Lin Xiaoman said, and still manages Mr. Xu submissively?I'm afraid that if you meet someone like Mr. Xu, you won't dare to say anything, right?

Seeing her expression, Lin Xiaoman knew that she didn't think about herself at all, so she took the initiative to ask: "Gu, do you think Mr. Xu can't do anything but work, how is he?"

Lin Dajiao was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Lin Xiaoman would ask her about her impression of Xu Qiuliang, but seeing her sparkling eyes, she suddenly understood, "Xiaoman, you are here to match your aunt, right?"

Lin Xiaoman looked at Lin Dajiao with a smile, "What do you think of this person?"

Lin Dajiao immediately blushed, "You child, how can you ask me directly about this? My aunt is already old, can Mr. Xu like me?"

"In terms of age, Mr. Xu is several years older than my aunt, and it's probably because my aunt thinks he's too old."

"Really? Do you really think Gu is worthy of him?" Lin Dajiao was surprised that Lin Xiaoman would think that she should dislike Xu Qiuliang.

Lin Xiaoman nodded vigorously, "That's right, although she is a woman, she is a good hand at work in our village. She can not only farm the fields, but also go up the mountain. The house is also tidier than other people's houses. He has to rely on her for food. Other people's, why do you dislike Gu?"
