Gourmet pastoral: the clever mother raises the cute baby

Chapter 80
After eating, Aunt Ye said she wanted to go back to sleep after sitting for a while, so Gu Yunqing sent her back.

Qiaomei wanted to stay with Tian Xiaoyu, but Aunt Ye didn't force her.

When Gu Yunqing came home, he saw Yuan Bao squatting in the chicken coop playing by himself, so he entered the house, but seeing his cousin's sad face, he couldn't help asking, "Qiaomei, what's wrong with you? so ugly?"

Qiaomei opened her mouth, and swallowed back what she wanted to say.

Tian Xiaoyu sighed and said to Gu Yunqing, "Sister, Qiaomei has someone she likes, so she is planning to let me tell the aunt."

When Gu Yunqing heard this, he immediately beamed with joy, walked to the edge of the kang and sat down, and said to Qiaomei in a spirited manner, "This is a good thing, why didn't you tell the aunt just now? Qiaomei, did you like me?" Which one is a good guy? Let my brother check it out for you."

When Qiaomei heard what he said, she knew that there was no need to hide her secrets any more. She blinked her eyes and said with a heartbeat, "The Liao family in the west of the village."

"Liao's family?" Gu Yunqing obviously searched for information about the Liao's family in his mind after hearing this. Sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, he said to Qiaomei in a bit of a dilemma, "Sister, what you said is not That Liao Xiucai?"

"En." Qiaomei nodded heavily.

It stands to reason that Gu Yunqing himself is a child of a poor family, not even comparable to the family background of the Liao family, but before his father passed away, the family was decent, but the Liao family in the west of the village had no family background at all, and he himself saw After a few times, Liao Xiucai, with a white and tender face, also looks weak, such a person is probably not suitable for Qiaomei.

These conjectures only went through Gu Yunqing's mind once, and he didn't make it clear, but asked, "Does the aunt know?"

"My mother doesn't know." After Qiaomei said this, she begged Gu Yunqing again, "Brother Yunqing, can you persuade my mother for me, she must look down on Brother Liao's family, but I, I ..” My whole heart is on that man.

"Don't worry, let your cousin think carefully." Seeing Gu Yunqing's furrowed brows, Tian Xiaoyu said.

Gu Yunqing thought about it a few times, and still expressed his point of view, "Qiaomei, this Liao Xiucai can't carry her shoulders and hands. If you marry in the future, won't all the work in the house be yours?"

Peasants pay attention to practicality, and this principle also applies to marriage.

As soon as Qiaomei heard this, she guessed that Gu Yunqing disapproved, her eyes dimmed, and she sat silently.

Seeing her dejected appearance, Tian Xiaoyu couldn't bear it, and said to Gu Yunqing, "My husband, I promised Qiaomei that I will let that Liao Xiucai come to us, and you will meet him well. It is rare that Qiaomei has a For a person who is really happy, you don't want her to be sad, do you?"

Gu Yunqing saw that his wife had said so, so he could only compromise, "That's fine, after I read it, let's decide whether to tell the aunt or not."

Only then did Qiaomei laugh, her face changed like the sky, from cloudy to sunny.

Because Tian Xiaoyu's foot was sprained, the matter of visiting and thanking Liu Yingchun was postponed. It was raining again in the past few days, and it was dripping all day long. The room began to leak. Tian Xiaoyu looked at the After taking over the crock pot, I became more determined to build a house.

I counted the money over and over all day long, thinking that I would probably be able to collect all the money when I went to the town next time to deliver the money.

Seeing her smirking while holding the money box all day long, Gu Yunqing showed more and more helpless expressions.

When the weather finally cleared up and the sun was scorching for two days, Tian Xiaoyu's foot injury also healed.

These days, Qiaomei has been cooking at Gu's house, talking good things about Liao Xiucai every day, which made Gu Yunqing wonder, when did my cousin have so many interactions with a scholar.

When Tian Xiaoyu got off the kang and was able to work, Qiaomei brought up the matter again. Gu Yunqing was tortured by her, so she had to agree first. Calligraphy and painting came to visit the ancient family.

Gu Yunqing opened the door and saw that it was Liao Qing, a white-faced scholar, but he didn't like him very much, because his future had dragged down the whole family, and Gu Yunqing couldn't even see him clearly.

Tian Xiaoyu came out of the kitchen, and two men stood at the gate of the courtyard, staring at each other, and hurriedly shouted, "Yun Qing, tell Liao Xiucai to come in and sit down."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to Qiaomei who was sitting on the fire bench, "Qiaomei, please take care of me, I can't let Liao Xiucai see you today. Today is considered a meeting. You are going to be discovered by others. It's embarrassing." It's not me."

When Qiaomei heard this, she retracted her elongated neck, blushed, and said shyly, "Sister-in-law, I understand." The voice was like a mosquito, and it was not the usual Qiaomei.

Tian Xiaoyu was cutting the bitter gourd slices in her hand, knife after knife, the thin slices could see through, she pursed her lips and smiled, "It's rare to see you so shy and quiet, hurry up and concentrate on lighting the fire, or you will be hungry later. I don't care about your big brother Liao."

"Sister-in-law, you're laughing at me again!" Qiaomei said coquettishly when she heard this.

The two were laughing and joking in the kitchen, very lively, but the atmosphere in the main room was weird.

Because of this incident, Yuan Bao was sent to Aunt Ye's house. The excuse was that the two of them had something to go to town, and Qiaomei accompanied them. Therefore, there were only adults with their own thoughts in this yard.

Gu Yunqing and Liao Xiucai sat opposite each other, neither of them spoke first, the atmosphere in the room was extremely awkward for a while.

But Gu Yunqing remembered Qiaomei's begging before, and finally softened his temper and said to Liao Xiucai, "Liao Xiucai, I, Gu Yunqing, am a rough guy, so I can speak directly if I have something to say."

"Brother, but it's okay to say, my little brother is all ears." Liao Xiucai looked indifferent, as if he knew what Gu Yunqing wanted to ask, and even spoke slowly.

Gu Yunqing was used to being a soldier, and he acted swiftly and resolutely in everything he did. Now that he met such a soft-tempered man, he still felt a little disdainful in his heart, and said, "I heard that Liao Xiucai and my cousin Qiaomei are about to make a private decision for life. ?”

"Brother, you can't talk nonsense. There is an old saying that 'a gentle lady is a gentleman.' Xiaosheng and sister-in-law are just following the footsteps of the ancients." Liao Xiucai said this lightly, as if he had nothing to do with Qiaomei. Too big a relationship.

Gu Yunqing was not happy when he heard that, he slapped the table with a "snap", and said loudly, "You mean that you don't plan to marry us Qiaomei? Also, this is not a school and officialdom. Put away the elegant set."

Liao Qing was startled by Gu Yunqing's actions for a long time, she was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say.
