Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 241 Second Marriage Banquet
These words startled Guan Wen slightly.

Li Xin shook his head lightly, and said: "You listen to what other people say, then Mr. Xue is a businessman, and businessmen pay attention to the word 'profit'. You see, he is also helpful in finding lotus root seeds for us. Want to repay? Of course his long-term follower is also speaking for him, and everything he says is unbelievable."

Guan Wen said with a smile: "You think I'm stupid? I can still understand the truth, but when Brother Qin talks to me like this, I always have to show a little respect for Lord Xue." Easy to deal with, isn't it?"

As he spoke, he comforted Li Xin and said, "Don't think too much about it. The matter of planting lotus root can be regarded as our acceptance of Master Xue's love. If we really want to plant a piece of lotus root, we can just give him some lotus root as he said. "He pondered again and said: "As for Mrs. Shen, there shouldn't be much suspicion. Mr. Xue is a businessman, and doing business is legitimate. Fumanlou has always been the best restaurant in Hui County. It will not shake the status of Fumanlou when it is opened."

Li Xin twitched the corners of his mouth, forced a smile and said, "Whatever you say, it's getting late, let's go back."

Guan Wu's new house is almost ready, and Guan Wu is more concerned about the interior decoration.The population in his side is simple, and he is the only one after the separation. When Xing'er gets married, there will be more Xing'er and Xiaokang, and four or five separate houses will be created, with one main room and a stove. There is one room, two bedrooms, and one room for sundries.Next to the pigsty, another small room was built to store firewood.

Xing'er took Xiaokang to sit at Li Xin's house, and the two children happily yelled "Brother Yang'er" and "Brother Kang" happily, and they had a great time playing with Erhei.Xu Shi has been playing with Er Hei all the time, but the two villains are not afraid of a big guy like Er Hei at all.

Xing'er sat next to Li Xin, the two of them were peeling garlic cloves together, Li Xin asked Xing'er, "Has the wedding date been set yet?"

Xing'er smiled and said, "It's decided, at the end of the month, my mother said that I will come to discuss with you in two days."

Li Xin smiled and said: "Okay, this time Auntie Qian is helping me again, so I can save a lot of trouble." Then he paused, and asked Xing'er in a low voice: "Grandpa and grandma Xiaokang..."

Xing'er said softly: "I told Ah Wu in private, and Ah Wu also said that he would invite them to a banquet." She said with a bit of melancholy: "It's just that I'm also afraid that they will be awkward, after all..."

In Li Xin's impression, Xiaokang's grandpa and grandma are considered enlightened people. After all, they belong to Xing'er's uncle and aunt, so they can't keep their niece and daughter as widows at such a young age.The grandson has a stepfather who is willing to treat him well, and the elderly couple are also relieved.Of course, it would be a bit awkward to talk about it if it was for the remarriage banquet of your own daughter-in-law.

Xing'er said: "It's good to let Ah Wu go to work, I don't care about it. I don't have anything to do now, but I do needlework, embroider some quilt covers and pillow covers and so on. Listen to what you said, wait for me and Ah Wu got married, and the house was rented out before, and a little rent every month was considered an income."

He paused for a while, looked at Li Xin and said: "Ah Wu told me that he borrowed money from his elder brother and sister-in-law to build the house, and now he is poor and poor. pay back the money."

"What are you doing in such a hurry, the money can be paid back slowly, and Ah Wen and I didn't rush." ​​Li Xin smiled and said: "You two can live well, and now the second brother has two acres of sandy land to plant It is enough for him to take care of some crops, raise two fat pigs, and do other jobs at ordinary times, and he can still live a happy life. You and A Wu don’t worry about money, it’s all You have to take your time. In three or four years, Xiaokang and Yang'er will be about the same age, and they should both go to school and learn some principles, and you have to think about your children."

Xing'er sighed: "Xiaokang's father is a scholar, I must let him study too."

After sitting for a while, Guan Wu came, Li Xin tactfully gave them the place to talk, Xing'er blushed and was teased by Li Xin.

Xue Qian said that the lotus root seeds sent by others had already been delivered. Seeing that the stems were not small, there were about ten large baskets, which were piled full.Guan Wen called Guan Wu and Guan Quan to help them plant in the rested lotus pond, and they were busy for several days.Then a ditch was opened to bring running water in. According to what Li Xin said, a ditch was dug from the lotus pond to let the water flow out to ensure that the water in the lotus pond was always alive.

The spring rain began to fall continuously, lingering and pathetic, and the patter made people's hearts itch.The spring rain is also gratifying. When walking in the village, you will see two men with hoes working in the fields, busy with planting seedlings and plowing the ground.

The weather was good last year, and I hope that the weather will continue to be good this year.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the month, and the marriage between Xing'er and Guan Wu started.

Both of them were "second marriages", so they didn't make any big fuss, so they set up a few banquets in Guanwu's new house, and invited relatives, acquaintances and friends of the two families to have a meal.

Xiaokang's grandpa and grandma also came, with a slightly uncomfortable face, but still generous.When Guan Wu and Xing'er came to toast, Grandpa Xiaokang said meaningfully: "Guan Wu, you are a man, Xing'er and Xiaokang are entrusted to you, please treat them well!"

Guan Wu is the groom's official today, with a red smile on his face all the time, when he heard Grandpa Xiaokang say this, he naturally nodded solemnly and said: "Uncle Qian, don't worry, I will definitely treat Xing'er well, and I will treat Xing'er well." Xiaokang treats her as her own baby."

Grandpa Xiaokang laughed, and happily drank Guan Wujing's wine.

Xing'er's mother, Qian Shi, was very happy. As the saying goes, the mother-in-law is more satisfied with seeing her son-in-law, and she has an honest and honest son-in-law again. Cup, crookedly holding the wine cup filled with wine and said that he was going to pay respects to his in-laws.

Although Guan Ming came today, his expression was not good.Things haven't been right for him lately.The eldest son divorced him, and told him clearly that he should not go to the new house in the future; the matter of the second son marrying a widow and bringing a oil bottle is now a certainty, so he can't let him say anything; Very, he saw that he had a lot of fun helping his elder brother and his second brother recently, and he was pulling materials and contacting people to move stones, and he seldom went to tend the land. On his head, he just said no, and when asked in front of his wife, his wife didn't know anything.

And Xiao Liu's marriage...

Thinking about the three daughters again, the eldest daughter does not live up to expectations, her husband’s family is unreliable, and she can’t stand up in her husband’s family after giving birth to a loser, and she can’t help her brother; Yes; the youngest daughter used to be cowardly and just talked and listened, but now she has learned from her sister-in-law, and she can't make a fart at all. Now he can't even ask her about her marriage.

Anyway, everything is unsatisfactory, and it is not pleasant to eat and drink here.

As soon as Guan Ming took a bite of the meat and chewed it in his mouth, Aunt Qian wobbled over, with Guan Wu carefully supporting her.

Seeing Guan Wu's "filial piety" appearance, Guan Ming became very angry, and really wanted to ask himself who the second son was his father. Thinking about how he would lose face if he yelled about it on this happy day, he felt resentful. He turned his head and took another sip of the yellow-orange grain wine.

Aunt Qian smiled and said, "Dear family, come here, let's have a drink together, and my daughter-in-law will be your daughter-in-law in the future. If you do something wrong, don't be too polite, just tell me. She won't listen, Tell me, and I will teach you a lesson!"

Guan Ming would like to say, why is she so little dowry, why not throw the baby to her ex-husband's house when she gets married? Words don't look good.

Before he left the house, the fourth child had told him thousands of times, telling him to keep his mouth shut and not to say anything nasty.

Well, he'd better not say anything.

Guan Ming groaned resentfully, took a bowl and touched Aunt Qian, and drank the food and wine in one gulp.

Aunt Qian was very happy, and she asked Guan Ming to chatter for a while. In the end, Li Xin persuaded Aunt Qian to leave when she saw that Guan Ming's face was really ugly. Help Aunt Qian to rest.

Axiu also took personal leave from Anhetang and came back. The leave is not long, and she will rush back tomorrow.Seeing Axiu this time, she lost a lot of weight again, but her spirit is better, and she has a certain temperament in her gestures.

Thinking about Mr. Shen, Li Xin didn't feel it was a pity.He and Axiu failed. Firstly, Third Master Shen didn't really have any special "favor" towards Axiu. Secondly, his status, Shen family's environment and so on were really inappropriate.

Axiu has always been indifferent to her marriage now. It seems that she has put all her energy on studying medicine, and she will inadvertently change the topic when chatting with people. When it comes to pathology and pharmacology, she speaks in a straight-forward manner, but others are confused, but they still have to listen carefully.

Axiu helped Aunt Qian to lie down in the house and then came back to help Li Xin greet the guests and serve food and wine.Yinhuan is very happy today, she is Xing'er's best friend in the boudoir, she has a bold personality, naturally puts herself in the position of the main family and is busy working.

This time, helping Yinhuan became more skilled. She not only beat eggs, but also stir-fried vegetables and ordered brine. He Chunsheng also found it funny that she was not so active at home.

Yinhuan scolded him, and took a basin of large intestines to wash the intestines by the river in front of Guan Wu's new house, but she was always thinking about Li Xin's powdered sausages.

Just came out of the new house and walked on the side of the road, Yinhuan subconsciously looked at the two ends of the road, but suddenly yelled "Ah", let go of her hand, and the basin fell down, revealing two parts of her intestines and lying on the ground.

Li Xin was chasing after Yinhuan with a knife, intending to clean her large intestine together, but when Yinhuan told her to catch up immediately, her eyes widened slightly, her brows frowned, and she thought to herself: What an unexpected visitor.
