The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 30 Matchmaker
After a crisp sound, Han Qianluo felt a burning pain in his cheek, and Han Shuier's right hand was still held high, with an angry expression on his face.

"How much more shame do you want?" Han Shui'er said angrily.

Han Qingquan, who was originally making stools at the side, hurried over when he saw this scene, and said with some displeasure, "Shui'er, what are you sitting on?"

"Brother, why don't you take a look at what she has done, she wants our family to go out and get stabbed in the back!" Han Shui'er said impassionedly.

Han Qianluo was a little angry. Although she was so old, she was often bullied by outsiders, but they were all outsiders, not her own family, which made it hard for her to accept.But even if he was very angry in his heart, he still looked calm on the surface, which was much better than Han Shuier.

"Second sister," Han Qianluo said calmly, "You have your own way, but please don't use this standard to ask me."

"If you're not my sister, I won't care what you do." Han Shui'er said angrily.

Han Qingquan at the side said sternly: "Okay, Shui'er, go weave, and Xiao Luo should do whatever."

Han Qianluo turned around and left, doing whatever he was supposed to do, completely ignoring Han Shui'er.Han Qianluo took out some barley and began to cultivate the barley malt, then went to turn the mushrooms over, and then went out with the basket.

Han Qianluo came to the mountain and continued to search for mushrooms, but today there were a lot fewer mushrooms than yesterday, and there were not many mushrooms in the evening.

The next day, Han Qianluo continued to sell caramel candies. Although the caramel she was selling was not special, so the business was mediocre, but it was getting better every day. It was much better now than it was at the beginning.

Han Qianluo was still selling caramel at the same place yesterday. The sun was very strong this day, and the weather was a little hot. With such a big sun, Han Qianluo soon felt hot and thirsty.

Han Qianluo looked at the sun in the sky, and it is estimated that it will continue like this. People on the street are probably going home to eat, and there is a lot less, and the caramel they brought is also much less. Han Qianluo does not intend to continue Got it, I plan to pack up and go back.

"Big sister, do you drink water?"

Han Qianluo turned her head to see that the little boy Tao An from yesterday was standing next to her holding a glass of water.Han Qianluo was just stunned for a moment, not pretentious, but drank the water in one gulp, and returned the glass to the little boy: "Thank you little brother."

The little boy Tao An happily went back with a water glass. Han Qianluo continued to pack up her things and prepare to go back. There was no agreement between her and Liu Xingzhi. They just chatted together when they met, and it was fine if they didn’t. It wasn’t intentional. Good appointment.

The people on the street eat three meals, but Han Qianluo and the others only eat two meals. Although she would like to eat three meals instead, it is still not allowed for now, so temporarily Just a moment.

After returning home, Han Qianluo started making caramel, and now she will make a batch of caramel in two days, because the business is getting better and better.After the best caramel, I looked at the sky, the sun had already set to the west, so I planned to bring the bamboo basket with mushrooms in the yard back to the house.

"Dong dong dong."

When Han Qianluo heard the knock on the door, he put down the basket in his hand, walked over to open the door, and there was a middle-aged woman standing outside the door. She was dressed like an ordinary middle-aged woman, except that there was a big pimple at the corner of her mouth. Black mole, when Han Qianluo saw this mole, he immediately thought of the matchmaker in the TV series.

Han Qianluo didn't know this person well, but he still asked politely, "May I ask what you want?"

"You are Qianluo, you have grown so big, I am Aunt Sun from Liuyangli." The middle-aged woman said with a smile on her face.

Han Qianluo turned sideways to let Sun Shi come in, and said politely: "Aunt Sun, please come in quickly." As he said that, he went into the room and took out the mat on which he was kneeling and threw it on the ground.

"Qianluo, where's your brother?" Sun asked.

"Wait a minute, I'll go out and call my brother back." Han Qianluo said and went out.

When Han Qianluo found Han Qingquan, he was weeding in the field: "Brother, a woman came to the house, she said it was the Sun family from Liuyangli, and asked you to go back."

Han Qingquan quickly tied up the firewood that had been cut, and then went back with the firewood.

"Brother, do you know what Aunt Sun is sitting on?" Han Qianluo asked curiously.

"I don't know very well, I just heard that she is a matchmaker for others."

Han Qianluo couldn't help thinking in his heart: It really is a matchmaker, and the appearance of this matchmaker is too recognizable.

Seeing Han Qingquan, Mrs. Sun said enthusiastically, "Qingquan is back, and I'm here to announce the good news to you."

Han Qianluo looked at Sun's smiling face, and knew in her heart that she must be a matchmaker, but who was it for?Although curious, Han Qianluo didn't stay here to listen, but hid in the house obediently.

Outside the house, Mrs. Sun's voice was high-pitched for a while, and he couldn't hear what he said clearly, but occasionally a word or two floated over, such as "brother" and "honesty", and there was some spectrum in his heart.

Han Qianluo did his own thing and didn't pay attention to this matter. Anyway, it would be the same to ask Han Qingquan after the matchmaker left.

"Then I'll go first, you guys think about it carefully."

Hearing these words, Han Qianluo came out of the house. Seeing that the sun had already set in the west, he first went to the vegetable field to pull a few vegetables back, then brought the mushrooms back to the house and started making dinner.

Dinner is naturally cooked by Han Qianluo, and now she cooks most of the meals at home, so now the vegetables at home are all fried, not boiled vegetables anymore.

The buns were steaming on the pottery steamer. Han Qianluo took the pottery pot down after seeing that it was steamed, poured out the water in the pot, put a little rapeseed oil on it, and started to fry the water spinach. Although there was no MSG, Han Qianluo Cut a bit of diced mushrooms into it to enhance the flavor.

After Han Qianluo fried the dishes, he served them on the table. The steamed buns were included on the table, and Sanwei quickly helped to take out the bowls and chopsticks. Han Qianluo patted his hands and said, "Go wash your hands first." Han Sanwei He obediently went to wash his hands.

After washing their hands, the whole family sat down to have dinner together. The table was very quiet and no one spoke. It was not until the meal was almost finished that Han Qianluo asked, "Brother, why did Aunt Sun come here today?"

"She's here to talk about your sister's marriage." Han Qingquan said calmly.

Han Shui'er lowered his head on purpose when he heard this, but he still listened with his ears up.Han Qianluo wouldn't pretend to be so innocent, and asked bluntly, "Who are you talking about?"

Han Qingquan didn't mind a girl from Han Qianluo asking such a question: "It's the son of Butcher Zhang in Liuyangli."

"How are people?"

In fact, it's not that Han Qianluo cares about her. She just wants to marry off the second sister who is not good at herself. Her second sister hurriedly married off.

"To be honest, there are no brothers in the family. There is only one son and a few older sisters, but they are all married. The family conditions are quite good, with a brick house."

Han Qianluo knows that farmers who can live in brick houses at this time are definitely the type with a good life, but she is a little puzzled, the conditions of her own family, even ordinary farmers are not willing to come to propose marriage, this person Since the conditions at home are good, why would you go to your own home?

"Since the conditions are good, why did you come to our family?" Han Qianshi said in a matter-of-fact manner, not noticing Han Shui'er's fleeting displeasure.

"I also asked this question, saying that he was married before and had a child, so..."

Han Qingquan didn't say what happened next, but Han Qianluo could guess what it was. He just felt that their family's conditions were poor, so he would definitely be willing.But whether they are willing or not, it is really not up to them to decide, and Han Shui'er is required to nod in agreement.

"Shui'er, what do you think, do you want to?" Han Qingquan asked.

Han Shui'er didn't speak, Han Qianluo thought for a while, and said, "Brother, should we inquire tomorrow and see how that person is?"

"That's right, it sounds nice, but you have to see it yourself to know what it looks like." Han Qingquan said, "Then I'll go and find out tomorrow."

Han Qianluo thought for a while, and felt that it was very possible for Han Qingquan to be recognized by others, so he said: "Brother, you should not go, it is easy to be recognized by others, let me go, they may not know me well .”

"OK then."

The next day, when Han Qianluo returned from the city after selling the caramel, she turned to Liuyangli. Sure enough, the people here didn't know her very well, they just thought she was an ordinary passerby, so they just glanced at her , and then ignore it.

Han Qianluo walked very slowly. She was considering whether to go directly to the door, or to use another method, and she didn't know where the butcher lived, but this question was not difficult.

Han Qianluo walked and paid attention to the surrounding situation, and suddenly saw a slightly different yard. Han Qianluo felt that this should be the home of the butcher.

Before Han Qianluo wanted to knock on the door, he heard a fierce quarrel broke out inside, a dispute between a man and a woman.

"Mother, I don't want to marry that woman from Qianyangli, I like Xiaoyu." A man said like an oath.

And another middle-aged woman was not to be outdone, and said decisively: "You can marry if you like it, and you don't look at the conditions of the other person. Unless you can get her parents to agree, I have no objection."

Han Qianluo didn't stay here for too long, so as not to be seen by others, but this alone is enough, and there is no need to understand more.

When Han Qianluo returned home, he told Han Qingquan about this matter, and Han Shuier eavesdropped with his ears up, and when he heard this, his expression was obviously a little sad.

"It seems that this marriage is not acceptable." Han Qingquan said.
