Chapter 33

"Really?"

Liu Heping was surprised, "A while ago, I also heard that a wealthy family moved into Beiqiao Village, and I have seen it a few times from a distance. The courtyard, with blue bricks and red walls, looks even more beautiful than the painting!"

As soon as Liu Qingluo heard it, she remembered Wuye and the others who met at the village at noon.

Could it be that they came to propose marriage?

"It's that family. I heard that the owner of that family is surnamed Lin. He is a noble family..." Du's face was full of depression, "How can you say that such a family is beautiful?"

These days, girls are becoming more and more expensive. Although rich families marry wives and no longer stick to the right family, but...Liu Meili is not too beautiful, and she has never studied, let alone any talents, no matter from which aspect. Speaking of which, she is not so famous that people come to propose marriage on their own initiative!

Liu Heping smiled and said, "Perhaps when did people see Meimei and fell in love with her..."

"How is this possible..." Du Shi muttered.

"Brother and sister-in-law, are you at home?"

At this time, Liu Yaoping's voice sounded outside the door.

Mrs. Du hurriedly got up to open the door, and saw Liu Yaoping standing at the door, holding a little girl Yushu by her hand.

"Come in, we are eating, have you eaten yet?"

Mrs. Du pulled them in, brought over two more bowls, and filled them with stick paste.

Liu Yaoping hurriedly declined, "Sister-in-law, you eat yours, I've had dinner... I haven't been here for a few days, I have nothing to do at this time, let's see how my brother's injury is doing."

"Talk while eating." Du Shi finally stuffed the bowl into their hands, and gave them pancakes made of wild vegetables.

Xiao Yushu snorted and drank porridge, and ate some bitter pancakes happily.

Their treatment in Liu's family is not as good as that of Liu Heping's family. What food can they eat?
"Sister Yushu, I'll give you this too." Liu Qingluo pushed the bean sprouts given to her by Grandma Hu to Yushu, and the two sisters ate one for you and one for me.

Liu Yaoping smiled and looked at it for a while, then sighed, "Let me say a word, don't be surprised by elder brother and sister-in-law. In fact, I think it would be good to move out and live in separate families... If a family is together, even if it suffers a little, Also peaceful."

Knowing that she had suffered a lot, Du said in a low voice, "Third sister, you are still young, you can..."

She glanced at the children and didn't say the rest of the sentence, but Liu Yaoping had already understood it.

Liu Yaoping's face was reddish, she lowered her head, and said nothing.

Of course, a woman who was divorced and returned home can remarry, but such a woman will definitely not have a good reputation outside. Even if the woman has nothing wrong with her, once they heard that she was divorced and returned home, who would be willing to continue the conversation?
It's not that Liu Yaoping doesn't want to remarry, it's just that it's too difficult...

If she found a dubious man, she would rather be like this, even if it is a bit bitter, it is better than being angry...

"By the way, how did I hear that someone came to propose marriage to Meili? Is it true?" Seeing that she was feeling uncomfortable, Mrs. Du quickly changed the subject.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Liu Yaoping raised his head and said with a smile: "It can be said that this matter has been spread all over the village."

Du Shi frowned and said: "But Meili is only nine years old, how can she reach the age of marriage? Where is this matchmaker, and she is too unreliable..."

Liu Yaoping shook his head, "That's the thing, they just order a child bride-in-law to make that family happy!"

"Congratulations?" Du's eyes widened.

"That's right. It's said that the master of that family has some kind of illness. It's quite serious. It hasn't been cured all the time, and it's getting worse and worse. The family members can't help it, so they thought of this way to cheer up."

"What's wrong with you?"

"I don't know about that..." Liu Yaoping shook his head, "I also listened to the second sister-in-law and the fourth sibling, and I heard a little... They said that they invited a famous old god to count the days, and specially counted their birthdays The girl who is most compatible with that master. Doesn't that count as coming to our old Liu's house?"

Du's face was filled with amazement, and after a while, he said, "Then, isn't this hurting the beauty? Marrying a sick ghost, in case..."

"That's not going to happen. The person who came to propose marriage said that the marriage contract should be made now, and the marriage will be done after the child reaches the age of 15. If the man can't wait until then, the marriage contract will be considered void."

Mrs. Du hurriedly asked, "Have you seen that master of the Lin family? How old is he and what does he look like?"

"I didn't see that. The master, Jin Gui, couldn't come to the door in person, so he called the housekeeper."

Liu Yaoping added, "It's a decent and good family. The master of the family has a lot of background, and he specially asked the housekeeper and matchmaker to propose marriage. Just the gift of meeting is a lot..."

Hearing a large number of greetings, Mrs. Du pouted, "What do you say over there?"

Liu Yaoping said softly: "With such a good condition, my parents, second brother and second sister-in-law are all very satisfied. They even said that they would have wine at home for three days and invite the villagers to drink to celebrate..."

Du said in a cold voice, "He's about to die of illness, he must be an old guy in his 60s or [-]s? For a few silvers, he pushed Beauty into the pit of fire!"

"Hey, parents are in charge of this matter, so what can others do..." Liu Yaoping also sighed.

……

After dinner, Liu Qingluo waved her fan and lay down in the yard by Shi Du's side, listening to her rambling.

She squinted her eyes halfway, looking at the starry sky above her head, and felt very comfortable when the breeze blew across her cheeks. She was half asleep and half awake when she heard a few crickets calling outside.

She woke up suddenly and sat up.

The three long and one short calls outside continued, she glanced at Du Shi who was already asleep, and Liu Heping and Liu Wenquan were adding more weaving mats in the room.

No one noticed her, so she walked out of the yard gently.Sure enough, there was a figure standing by the roadside outside.

"Niuniu?" It was Wuye's voice.

Liu Qingluo hurried over and looked up at him, "Brother Wuye, why are you here so late?"

Those three long and one short crickets were the secret signal they agreed to meet during the last joke, but I didn't expect it to be used during the five nights...

"I came to see you. I wanted to come during the day. I was worried that your family and villagers would see it. It would be inconvenient." Wuye smiled, showing his white teeth under the moonlight.

Liu Qingluo smiled, "What are you going to do with the Liu family?"

"I, I'm going to propose marriage to our grandfather." Wuye shook his head, "The girl from the Liu family is really not very good looking, how can she be worthy of our grandfather..."

"So, your master is the master of the Lin family in Beiqiao Village?"

"Yeah, you've heard that too?" Wuye said with undisguised pride.

"What's wrong with him?" Liu Qingluo always looked abnormally pale when thinking of that handsome and indifferent young man.

"I can't tell..." Wuye took out a jade bottle stopper from his waist and gave it to her, "I begged for this from the master, you can keep it. It's getting late, I should go back. I'll go back in three days. The Liu family is officially proposing marriage, and I will come to see you when the time comes, I'm leaving..."
