Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 203 Copper Coin Tangyuan
Yang'er's crying inside became quieter, the door opened, Guan Zhicheng looked at Guan Wen and Li Xin with a pale face, and said displeasedly: "Brother and sister-in-law, you put a baby in my room." What are you doing here!"

Yang'er likes the smell of ink, and in the new house, Li Xin would get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from time to time for Yang'er to write.Because he is still young and can't write very clearly, he is afraid that it would be too wasteful to use paper for him, so he usually puts a sand table for Yang'er to learn.

Guan Wenfang and Yang'er slept in Guan Zhicheng's house today because he was thinking that Guan Zhicheng would live alone and the room would be cleaner, and he had the Four Treasures of the Study in his room, so Yang'er would be able to fall asleep more easily when he smelled the fragrance of ink.I didn't expect Guan Zhicheng to be so unhappy at this moment.

Yang'er ran out without even wearing shoes, Li Xin hurriedly went up to hug him up, supported his little butt with one hand, and squeezed his feet with the other.Yang'er put her arms around Li Xin's neck, she didn't cry at the moment, but her tears were still hanging down.

Li Xin went to get Yang'er's shoes to put on for him. Guan Wen was about to explain to Guan Zhicheng, but Guan Ming said, "Ah Wen, what do you mean, let a baby come in and eavesdrop on me talking to your sixth brother?"

Guan Wen frowned, and Li Xin became furious when he heard this, and raised his voice: "Father's words are really embarrassing, what is Ah Wen doing listening to you talking to the sixth brother? Besides, Yang'er is a little baby, Does he know how to do such a thing? It is obvious that the sixth younger brother woke him up by yelling while he was asleep, and then wept. It’s strange that Yang’er eavesdropped on you and there must be a logic! Doing so angrily What, is it possible that you are talking about something shameful?"

Li Xin just said this casually, but Guan Zhicheng's eyes dodged a little as soon as the words came out.

Guan Wen didn't pay attention, grabbed Guan Zhicheng and shouted: "It's just sleeping in your room, what are you doing so loudly?"

As he spoke, he stepped forward to hug Li Xin, coaxed Yang'er and said, "Yang'er, be good, don't cry, it's okay, it's okay, don't you feel it?"

With tears in the corners of Yang'er's eyes, he sobbed and shook his head.

Li Xin took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, then carried him out of the room.

Guan Ming murmured to Guan Wen from behind: "Look at how frivolous your daughter-in-law is, how can she talk to me like this..."

I don't know if it's because of a guilty conscience, but Guan Ming said this evasively.

Normally, he would have danced with Li Xin long ago, but this time he didn't curse loudly.

Guan Wen didn't pay attention to this detail, and didn't pay attention to Guan Ming. He stepped forward to fold the quilt irritably, and said to Guan Zhicheng angrily, "Seeing a little baby sleeping on your bed like that, even scaring the little baby to cry That's it, you're going to be good at that!"

Guan Zhicheng pursed his lips and did not answer. Guan Wen went out and saw Li Xin holding Yang'er in one hand and a wooden ladle in the other.

"Awen, hurry up and wake up Yang'er's nose. I saw his nose runny after crying for a while."

Guan Wen hurriedly walked over, and Li Xin went to fetch warm water and a handkerchief for Yang'er to wash her face.

Guan Wen lightly pinched Yang'er's nose to make him wake up with a snot, and washed his hands with the water that Yang'er had washed his face.

Guan Wen said in a low voice: "Don't be upset, I've already mentioned my sixth brother."

Li Xin said with a half-smile: "What's wrong with me? Your father scolded you but didn't scold me." He said with a snort, "Your sixth brother is such a big man, as for being shocked when he sees a kid Like that? It's a good thing that Yang'er was not surprised, what if something goes wrong."

Yang'er was put on the ground by Li Xin, and she stood firmly, holding Li Xin's clothes.

Guan Wen sighed, moved his lips but did not answer.

On the night of Lantern Festival, Guan's family sat in the main room. After eating a lukewarm meal, Guan Zhicheng cleared his throat and said, "Second Brother, Dad told me today..."

"Don't call me, I won't listen to anything you want to say. This matter is settled, and you can't let me talk. The two acres of sandy land will be planted by me. When I separate the family, you can do whatever you want. Whatever you say, I won’t make a sound.”

Guan Zhicheng choked up and looked at Guan Wu angrily.Guan Wu didn't even look at him, and turned his eyes away.

Guan Ming suddenly became unhappy, and scolded Guan Wu: "Why are you talking to your brother! You don't look like a brother at all!"

Guan Wu snorted, ignored Guan Ming and Guan Zhicheng, and only said to the old man: "Grandpa, I'm full, let's go out and eat."

"you give me……"

Before Guan Ming could reprimand him, Guan Wu stood up and left.

Guan Zhicheng patted his chopsticks angrily and said to Guan Ming, "Second brother, what's wrong? Is it because of being possessed by something evil? You don't even want to listen to me!"

Guan Zhicheng didn't realize that he had already offended Guan Wu, and he was still complaining about Guan Wu.

Li Xin asked Amei to look at Yang'er and clean up the dishes with Hu Yueying. Guan Ming said to Guan Wen displeasedly: "You also care about your second brother, what kind of temper is he? The bigger the person, the more tempered he is." , I can’t say anything about him!”

Speaking to comfort Guan Zhicheng, he said, "Your second brother is suffering from convulsions, don't bother him, it's just like this when he has a bad temper."

Li Xin laughed secretly in his heart, and went to the stove with Hu Yueying. The water in the stove was still warm, and the water in the pot was still a little hot.

Hu Yueying asked from the side: "Sister-in-law, when will this second brother and sister Xing'er get married?"

Li Xin replied vaguely: "I don't know about this, but Grandpa said to hurry up, and I think it will be as soon as possible."

Hu Yueying smiled and said, "Second brother has also taken care of the place where the house will be built. It is very enviable to see second brother start a house... When will the construction start?"

Li Xin suddenly remembered what Xing'er told her when she went to find Xing'er to discuss Axiu's marriage, and now she looked at Hu Yueying again, seeing how she pretended to ask casually, but her ears were perked up. All of a sudden, it felt a little uncomfortable.

Li Xin smiled lightly and said: "It's not up to me, the details are up to your second brother. Don't worry, Yueying will have to help you a little bit."

"……Is it? lol."

Hu Yueying smiled embarrassingly, put the bowl in the pot and started washing.Li Xin took a rag and went to the main room to wipe the table.

As usual, one has to eat a bowl of Lantern Festival before going back. Li Xin started making Lantern Festival after it got dark and almost had some food left.

The stuffing in the glutinous rice balls is not limited to peanuts and sesame seeds, and the buns are combined at will. Axiu quickly helps at the side. When Hu Yueying wants to help, Axiu smiles and asks her to rest and watch the firewood.

When Hu Yueying was gone, Ah Xiucai said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law Fourth touches flour without washing her hands. Now flour is very expensive, so if it gets dirty, be careful of diarrhea."

Li Xin glanced at Axiu displeasedly and said, "Don't say these things, what if people hear them."

Axiu stuck out her tongue, she seemed to be in a better mood now.

When the glutinous rice balls were brought to the table, everyone started eating.Because they are all full, this is just a scene, only two or three of each person.

While eating, Guan Quan suddenly said "ah", stretched his hand into his mouth, and took out a copper coin.

"Fourth brother, make a fortune in the coming year!" A-mei said with a smile, and Li Xin said: "I chose a few glutinous rice balls and wrapped them in copper coins. It is a moral. The next year will be rich if I eat it. Fourth brother will work harder this year." , the daughter-in-law is back, and she has a big fat boy before the end of the year, so I have to hurry up and make money."

Guan Quan had a smile on his face, but he looked very sincere.

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

"Let's see who still has copper coins to eat!" Lao Guan cheerfully dug open his bowl, digging everything, but still not a single copper coin.

When Guan Quan ate the second one, he ate another copper coin, and now even Guan Ming gave him a sideways look.

Guan Wen said with a smile: "It seems that the fourth brother is really going to get rich this new year." He hurriedly urged: "Look at the remaining one, see if there is any in it."

Hu Yueying also hurriedly urged Guan Quan to see if there were copper coins in the third one.

Guan Quan picked it up with his chopsticks, hey, he hit the ball, and the third dumpling also contained copper coins!

Now Guan Ming was not calm anymore, he looked at Guan Quan and said, "Really three copper coins? You got them all?"

Guan Quan responded with a smile, and three copper coins were placed on the table.

Li Xin smiled and said: "A good moral, the fourth brother is really lucky, and I didn't even get a few of them."

Just as they were talking, Yang'er and Guan Wen yelled out one after the other, and then Axiu also yelled out.

Li Xin had two glutinous rice balls in his own bowl, and one of them had copper coins in it.

Guan Wen smiled and put the copper coins in the dumpling cores of himself and Yang'er on the table, Axiu also put them on the table, and Li Xin quietly held them in his hand and didn't put them on.

"It's a good harvest." Axiu said with a smile: "Eat glutinous rice balls and you can get a copper coin."

He teased Yang'er again and said, "Yang'er only ate one, and there is money in it. He is really a little lucky star, a little fortune star."

Guan Wen patted Yang'er's head, and asked Li Xin, "How much money did you pay to go in? There are three from the fourth brother, three of us, six."

"It's gone." Li Xin said with a smile, "I only packed six."

Axiu was slightly surprised, seeing that Li Xin's face remained unchanged, she didn't ask why there was one missing.

After eating the glutinous rice balls, Guan Wen said that he was going back to his new house, but Guan Ming didn't want to keep them, he just said: "Then how is Axiu's marriage now?"

Guan Wen stopped Axiu and replied, "I'm watching."

"I've been looking at it for so many days, but it's been a year and it hasn't been settled yet." Guan Ming snorted and said, "If your wife can't do it, I'll ask someone to look for it."

Guan Wen twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "No need, Dad, Xiner is still very accurate in judging people, you have to see a good one before you can tell if your marriage is right."

Guan Ming hummed a few words and waved his hands to tell them to go back quickly.

On the way back, Ashura dragged Li Xin to the back, and whispered, "Sister-in-law, it's not seven copper coins..."

"Six are just right, and if six or six go well, I will leave one out."

Axiu frowned and said, "But I see, sister-in-law, you made seven... Seven is also very good, and the seven stars are shining!"

Li Xin just smiled and said, "Then I don't know, the last one probably didn't finish eating and didn't pay attention?"

Axiu looked at Li Xin suspiciously, and seeing a slight smile from the corner of her eyes, she immediately said "Oh", and said clearly, "Sister-in-law, did you get what you ate?"

Li Xin smiled and nodded.

"Hey, why didn't you tell the big guys?" Axiu asked puzzled.

"I didn't see your father unhappy?" Li Xin said helplessly: "I heard that your fourth brother has three, he is very happy, and he has been picking up the dishes by himself, three on our side, three on your father's side, It's a tie. If I take out another one here, your father will be angry."

Axiu let out a "puchi" laugh, and thought about it: "Elder sister-in-law, you can think clearly."

"One more thing is worse than one less thing, so go back quickly."
