After the separation, my wardrobe is modern

Chapter 38

Except for the west wing where Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu live, the main building and the east wing have already been scrapped, and the stone foundation has been laid. We can build walls and build a house after the newly bought bricks are soaked in water. up.

The scraped bricks and stones were picked up and piled up outside the courtyard, only to be used for heating kangs or building courtyard walls when the time came.

Shen osmanthus and Lin Xiangxing were cooking sour plum soup in the simple kitchen they built, and the yard smelled of sour plum and hawthorn.

The workers sweated a lot, and had to drink several pots of water a day. For the sour plum soup buns brought by Lin Erhu, Shen Guihua cooked a pot in the morning and another pot in the afternoon. Apart from the workers, there were also people in the village Many children came to beg for it.

Shen Osmanthus boiled the leftover dregs twice for them to drink, and the children drank it happily.

Each person gave a few pieces of oil residue. Some children ran away after eating, and some children left the firewood they cut on the mountain.

Shen Guihua wrote down the names of these children, and told Lin Xiaoman at this time, and Lin Xiaoman wrote down these children. If there is something that children can do in the future, they will find these children to do it.

"Aunt Osmanthus, stew beans at home tonight, you and Xiang Xing don't leave."

Shen Osmanthus was not too polite, "Come on, Xiang Xing's father has been working in the city for the past few days. Because I disagree with the Fang family's marriage, their family's nose and face are not the same when they see our mother. We are too lazy to go back and serve."

Lin Xiaoman didn't expect that all the sons of the Fang family would be like that. Shen Guihua's in-law's family still wanted to marry that family, but thinking about the face of that family, she didn't think it was strange.

Shen Osmanthus went into the stove to cook soup, Lin Xiaoman saw that Lin Xiangxing seemed to have something to say to him, so he dragged her into the room, startling Lin Erhu who was lying in the closet surfing the Internet.

Fortunately, before entering the house, Lin Xiaoman was afraid that there would be a scene where he would not be able to see others, so he blocked Lin Xiangxing with his body. After entering the house, he kicked Lin Erhu, and warned him not to play with his mobile phone all day long with his eyes.

Lin Erhu scratched his head embarrassingly, but his eyes fell on the door. He remembered to lock the door, why did he forget this time?

Lin Xiaoman said: "Er Hu, you go out first, I have something to say with your sister Xiang Xing."

Lin Erhu oh oh twice, put the phone in his arms and ran out.

"Xiang Xing, what do you want to tell me?"

Lin Xiangxing bit her lips in embarrassment, "Xiaoman, I told Tie Zhu yesterday to ask him to come to my house to propose marriage, and he promised to invite a matchmaker over tomorrow, but he also said that the past few years have not been good, and the family still owes money." What do you think I should do if I don’t have the money to give me the dowry gift of Master Liu’s money?”

For some reason, Lin Xiaoman thought of Xiaomeng's scumbag boyfriend. He also had no money for a bride price, but he had money to buy a car worth more than 20 yuan.

The past few years have been bad, but Mr. Liu is not bad, as long as he is not lazy, he has never heard of anyone who owes him money.

She had met Li Tiezhu before, and felt that he looked simple and honest, and seemed willing to do it, but after all, she only had a quick glance and didn't know what he was like. If he was also the kind of little dreamy boyfriend, shouldn't she Persuading Lin Xiangxing to kick him?
What's more, Li Tiezhu really wanted Xiang Xing to be good, so he should have found someone to propose marriage a long time ago. Could it be that he had been procrastinating because he couldn't get the dowry?Or is it that he has nothing to fear from Xiang Xing?
"Tell me the truth, where are you with him? Have you been taken advantage of by him?"

Seeing Lin Xiaoman's serious expression, Lin Xiangxing was taken aback, but soon blushed, "Why do you ask this?"

Lin Xiaoman's heart skipped a beat, this side is no better than that side, if Lin Xiangxing really slept with Li Tiezhu, she really couldn't say something to make Xiangxing think about it.

"Just tell me if you ask me, I'll help you see if Li Tiezhu is worth your entrustment."

Lin Xiangxing murmured: "I...I held hands with him."

Lin Xiaoman let out a long breath. It's okay if he just held hands, as long as no one sees it, he can deny it, "What else?"

"Also...and...he suddenly leaned over to kiss me yesterday, and I didn't escape, I was kissed on the face by him."

Displeasure flashed in Lin Xiaoman's eyes. This side is not as open as the other side. Unmarried men and women kiss in private. If outsiders see it, the woman's reputation will be ruined. Even if a man marries her, he will be pointed out. Do you think Li Tiezhu wants to ruin Xiangxing's reputation and force the Lin family to marry her?
"In addition to these, think again, does he have any tokens from you?"

Lin Xiangxing's head was about to hang down in front of her face, but she still shook her head, "That's not true, I also know that you can't give and receive in private, yesterday he came over suddenly, and I was not prepared to be kissed by him."

Lin Xiaoman felt relieved, "Remember, no matter when, if his family makes a fuss about you two kissing, you can't admit it."

Lin Xiangxing's face turned pale all of a sudden, "Brother Tie Zhu wouldn't do that, would he?"

Lin Xiaoman sneered, "Then I don't know, it still depends on his performance. Please invite a matchmaker over tomorrow, right? I'll go to your house to stay with you."

Lin Xiangxing's already uneasy heart became even more uneasy after hearing Lin Xiaoman's words and her attitude. She always felt that she seemed to have done something wrong.

In the evening, Lin Erhu ate the canned braised pork and stewed beans that Lin Erhu was thinking of, and also stewed a pot of white rice.

Shen Guihua's mother and daughter also praised them repeatedly, "Xiao Man, your cooking skills are better than your mother's. No wonder you can open a restaurant in the city."

"It's not a restaurant, it's just a shop. Aunt Osmanthus, when you go to the city with Xiang Xing, don't eat outside. I'll treat you to hot pot chicken in the past."

"Success, I will tell you when I go to the city."

For a meal, except for Lin Xiangxing who was full of thoughts, everyone ate with gusto.

When going back, Lin Xiaoman wanted to bring some oily residue back to Shen Osmanthus, but Shen Osmanthus refused, "We won't be able to eat it if we bring it back, so if we want to eat it later, we can come to your house to eat it."

Lin Xiaoman didn't give in, just wondering if there was something suitable for the two of them to make a living. They couldn't eat meat by themselves, but the people closest to them couldn't even drink soup.

Waking up early the next day, Lin Xiaoman didn't go to the city, and asked the car to take away the things that were going to the city today, while she went to Lin Xiangxing's house after dinner.

The population of Lin Xiangxing's family is not too large. There is a grandmother on the top, a widowed aunt in the middle, a six-year-old nephew and an unmarried uncle. Shen Guihua and his wife have a son and a daughter. The eldest daughter Lin Xiangxing is 16 years old. , and a 14-year-old son named Lin Wang was sent to a carpenter's shop in the city as an apprentice.

When Lin Xiaoman arrived, he heard Grandma Xiangxing nagging in the yard, "You don't want Mr. Fang, you guys have eyes growing on top of your head? Fang's family gave a lot of dowries, and at that time they can also marry the third child." The daughter-in-law is back. It’s good for you, just push the marriage away, and see what kind of family you Lin Xiangxing can marry in the future."

Shen Osmanthus returned in the room, "I said that Mr. Fang is not a good person, and I heard that he was also infected with internal organs. How can a human milk push his granddaughter into the fire pit?"

"How do you know Mr. Fang has a heart disease? How did you see it? You can't just believe what others say."

Shen Osmanthus fragrans was so angry that she lost her voice, "Is this what you can say as a mother-in-law? Mr. Fang is not my man, and I, a good girl from a good family, can see that kind of disease? Why don't you go to the city to help me see?" Look, see if they show it to you."
