Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 624
Coming out of the master's hall, Er Gouzi was still in a daze.

Xiaobi was waiting outside the door, and Er Gouzi shifted his gaze to her.

This girl... really wants to be his brother's wife?So a girl who is so watery and clever, why is she willing to marry herself to her stupid brother?
"Miss Xiaobi..." Er Gouzi asked mutteringly, "My brother is stupid..." He had to say this, and he didn't want to delay such a beautiful girl!

Xiaobi smiled: "Stupid people are blessed with stupidity, he is straightforward."

Er Gouzi laughed twice, nodded, and said: "You, you don't feel wronged... My brother is stupid, but he has a good temper. My mother and my wife are easy to get along with..."

Xiaobi just nodded with a smile, and waited for Er Gouzi to leave before returning to the main room.

"Er Gouzi will ask her mother to come over tomorrow to discuss with Granny Hua about your marriage with San Gouzi." Li Xin looked at Xiaobi silently, and said after a while: "You made your own decision, I hope you don't regret it. "

Xiaobi said firmly: "I will not regret it."

Li Xin waved her hand to let Granny Hua and Xiaobi go down to discuss. She was a little tired.

Let's do it like this, Li Xin thought.If Xiaobi thinks this is the most suitable ending for her, then she doesn't need to intervene.Everyone has the right to choose their own life. Others can persuade them, but they cannot make decisions.Within the scope of her ability, being able to consider so much for Xiaobi can be considered as worthy of Xiaobi.

On the second day, Li Xin met Er Gouzi's mother and daughter-in-law and received their salutations.The rest of the specific matters were naturally discussed by Granny Hua with them, and Li Xin did not listen.

Xing'er has been paying attention to the rumors in the village since she learned about Guan Quan and Hu Yueying's reconciliation. The news of their reconciliation seems to have spread."

Li Xin sat up straight suddenly: "Are there any rumors that the fourth brother is gossiping with Xiaobi?"

Xing'er shook her head: "I haven't heard it yet. I also asked my mother to pay attention to it. If there are such rumors, my mother will tell me immediately."

Li Xin heaved a sigh of relief: "Then I will trouble Aunt Qian."

"What's the trouble here..." Xing'er said bitterly, "If I hadn't hidden it, I would have told you what happened that day early, and I probably wouldn't have ended up like this."

Li Xin persuaded her: "Things have already happened, it's useless to think so much. Fortunately, Xiaobi's marriage is also settled now. Granny Hua is a sensible person, and she will explain it clearly to Er Gouzi and his family."

Xing'er could only nod her head, but sighed again: "I've wronged Xiaobi so much."

Li Xin said indifferently: "She chose this by herself."

Xing'er could only sigh.

At the beginning, she had told Li Xin that she must choose a good husband-in-law for Xiaobi when she was looking for a husband-in-law, but in the end...

Xing'er lowered her eyes: "After Xiaobi got married, there was no one around you. In such a big family, the eldest brother only came back every other day, and Yang'er was only at home in the morning and afternoon. It was deserted. Are you Didn't you want to find someone to take over Xiaobi's errand?"

Xing'er was telling the truth. After Xiaobi got married, there would be no one at home to help with those chores. Now that she had a big belly, it was inconvenient.

"It is indeed necessary to find someone, but you also know that our family is not the same as before. I am afraid that people in the village will look at our family with envy. I am afraid that I will find someone with such a big heart that I will not be able to control it."

Xing'er nodded: "Then you should look for someone who signed a death contract. Life and death are in your hands, so you don't dare to get angry." Xing'er said: "We are not vicious people. Just stand on top and give those people some warnings. With this layer of scruples, the people who have been found dare not change their minds."

Li Xin naturally knew this truth, "But if you look for it in the village, the folks in the village won't be able to say that. Besides, who is willing to sell our daughter to us and treat us like a cow or a horse, beating us at will?"

Xing'er said: "Then go to the town to find someone, Xiao Bi bought it from someone, too?"

Li Xin said: "Most of the girls in the town are used to life in the town. If they stay in the countryside..."

"It's okay, you can just buy the girl who is sold in the countryside before you have time to train it?" Xing'er said, "Yinhuan also told me something about buying a girl. , I know you also have some concerns. You buy the kind of girl who is twelve or thirteen years old, she is at the age when she can work, and she won't have such thoughts. After a year or two, the child doesn't need you all day Watch, when the time comes, we will see if the girl you bought is honest, and if you are dishonest, you will be sent away."

Li Xin said with a smile: "You are very sensible when you talk about this matter."

"I've heard Yinhuan talk a lot, so I know it too." Xing'er smiled and said, "That kind of thing happened to the He family, but the maid didn't succeed. At that time, Yinhuan made a fuss and made the rest of the family work. All the young girls who have been working have been resigned. In the future, they will be replaced by older aunts."

"Yinhuan is a jealous jar." Li Xin laughed.

"Isn't it? But Brother Chunsheng just spoils her."

Xing'er sat and talked for a while, and then hurried to the pig farm.

In the afternoon, someone came from Li Xin's family, and Wu Zhuang brought a sheep to Li Xin.

"Brother Li said that this goat produces enough milk, and I heard that it is good to drink milk, so let me bring it to Sister Li." Wu Zhuang smiled honestly: "It's just that the milk always has a fishy smell, I don't know if Sister Li drinks it or not. Get used to it."

Li Xin looked at the sheep standing obediently, and said with a smile, "It's okay, cook it with some jasmine or something, and the fishy smell will disappear."

Li Xin asked Wu Zhuang to sit in the room, asked him to take a breath, and asked, "Is everything okay in my natal family?"

"Very good." Wu Zhuang grinned straightly: "You don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you get a lot of wages. Second Brother Li's business in the town is very good, and Second Aunt Li is smiling every day."

Li Xin was naturally in a good mood, and asked again, "Did Saburo send any letters back?"

Wu Zhuang nodded: "Send it, and it's in Yuzhou area." Wu Zhuang sighed: "I heard from Brother Li that Second Aunt Li seems to be very worried, and I don't know why."

Li Xin's heart skipped a beat.

The area in Yuzhou was in a disaster year, and the situation in that area was probably very bad.It's normal for my mother to worry.

But it is also a good thing for Li Ming to see people's livelihood.If he wants to be an official, he must be a good official who benefits the people. The living conditions of these low-level people must become a very important part of his life experience.

Li Xin nodded, and ordered Xiaobi to make food for Wu Zhuang. Wu Zhuang was not polite, and left after eating a whole bowl of noodles.

When Guan Wen came back, his expression was very calm.

"Have you talked to the fourth brother?"

"We've talked about it." Guan Wen smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not angry."

Li Xin didn't believe it.

Sitting next to Guan Wen, she didn't mention this, but only talked about Xiaobi's marriage, and then asked Guan Wen to help find a girl in the town, and asked her to bring someone to choose two girls for her.

Guan Wen frowned: "Xiaobi? Why are you getting married so suddenly?"

Li Xin didn't intend to tell him the reason, but said: "Of course I'm going to get married when I'm old, how can I delay him for the rest of my life?"

Guan Wen didn't ask any more questions, he just felt it was sudden, and besides, he was not very familiar with Xiaobi.

"Sure, then I'll find someone to come over tomorrow." Guan Wen said, and then asked Li Xin: "But what kind of girl are you looking for? You can't let the family members bring everyone here."

Li Xin nodded: "I was sold from the countryside only if I hadn't been trained yet."

Guan Wen nodded: "Okay, I will remember."

On the second day, Ren Yazi brought people here, a total of six girls. Li Xin and Xing'er looked at the people, asked a few questions, chose two girls, signed a death contract, and gave them Yazi 20 taels of silver.

The two girls are both 12 years old. They look shriveled and have rough hands. They look like they have been working at home all year round.The appearance is also ordinary. When I first came, I was very nervous, and I didn't dare to look up at people, and I looked at people honestly.

When Ren Yazi brought people here, they were cleaned first and changed into clean clothes. Li Xin asked Xiaobi to talk to them about the rules, and let them get acquainted with the house before going to take a nap.

The new sheep bleating made Yang'er very novel. Today, Mr. Fu happened to go out to do some errands, so Yang'er and Xiaokang stayed at home and circled around the sheep.By chance, Erhei and Erhuang didn't go to nest in the mountains today, they followed Yang'er and Xiaokang, and wandered around the sheep leisurely, scaring the sheep enough.

Granny Hua came to milk the milk, while Yang'er and Xiaokang squatted aside to watch.

Granny Hua laughed at them shyly, Yang'er blinked and said, "Goat's milk is also a kind of medicine."

Granny Hua actually smiled: "How do you know that goat's milk is medicine? It's written in the book?"

Yang'er nodded: "Goat's milk is sweet, warm and non-toxic. It can benefit the five viscera, invigorate kidney deficiency, nourish the essence and qi, and nourish the heart and lungs; it can cure thirst and fatigue; it can benefit the skin and hair; it can also benefit the small and large intestines."

Granny Hua was stunned when she heard that, Xiaokang also opened her eyes wide: "Brother Yang, where did you see that?"

"I saw the sheep bleating yesterday. I heard my mother said that I will drink goat milk in the future, so I went to read the medical book given to me by my fifth aunt."

Xiaokang looked at Yang'er adoringly: "Brother Yang'er, did you memorize it?"

"Yeah." Yang'er nodded: "It's still a little hard to memorize." He was a little annoyed: "Brother Kang, I don't have a good memory like yours..."

Xiaokang laughed: "I can't remember how long I've recited it."

Granny Hua was very pleased to see that they were respectful brothers and sisters.After milking, Granny Hua gave them a few instructions to go to the stove to boil goat milk.

It just so happened that Xiaobi came back with the two new maids, and saw Granny Hua hurriedly calling her godmother.

"These two girls are newly bought?"

"Yeah." Xiaobi nodded and said, "This one is called Qingya, and this one is called Guozi." Then she said to the two girls, "This is Granny Hua."

The two hurriedly called Granny Hua.

Granny Hua nodded, and said to Xiaobi, "I'm going to boil goat milk, you should be busy first."

Xiao Bi nodded, Granny Hua walked two steps and then turned around and said, "That's right, Xiao Bi."

"what?"

"Three Gouzi and I have found someone to watch the day, ten days will be a good day." Granny Hua said: "Ten days is a bit rushed, you should be more prepared."

Xiaobi nodded.
