Chapter 270

The days passed quickly, and the seventh day of July passed in a blink of an eye. The matchmaker picked a good day to be a matchmaker, and came to Lao Qin's house excitedly to discuss the dowry and the wedding.

The other party was generous, which opened Qin Dafu's eyes greatly, and he was much more generous than the old Bai's family. As long as Liu Shi mentioned it, the matchmaker would not reply, and would just pick the good ones.

In addition to what my family wants, the ones prepared by the Gao family are also top-notch.

A courtyard with three entrances is only for newly married couples, and the old couple has another large courtyard to live in. There are four stoves in the house, and the female celebrity does not need Xiuxian to cook.

The family also employs some long-term laborers, and there are also some people farming. When Xiuxian goes, she just needs to help the housekeeper, and she doesn't need to do any rough work.

Xiuyao listened at the door, isn't this the young mistress?
Marrying into the Zhou family, I'm afraid it's not so brisk, and she doesn't let the daughter-in-law do needlework, this mother-in-law is really kind.

However, will you agree too happily?
It made her feel a bit like the She family at that time, but after seeing this happy tiger, they saw that there was no problem.

Thinking of this, she winked at Mrs. Liu, asking Mother not to agree immediately, they should find time to have a look.

Although it is inconvenient to be far away, as long as there is a heart, and for the sake of their children, no parents will be afraid of trouble.

Mrs. Liu understood, so she agreed, and talked to Su Matchmaker, but she didn't say anything that must be finalized, and she would think about it later.

Su Matchmaker's expression was a little anxious, "Big sister, don't listen to some people talking stupidly. At this time, people are not sure what they are thinking. I have been a matchmaker for so many years, and I often meet people who poke the matchmaker. Marriage is ruined, you say that some people are really bad tongues, people say that it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy one family."

Liu Shi smiled and said: "You misunderstood, no one said it, we just have to think about it, and then ask the girl what she means."

Su Matchmaker laughed, "The eldest sister's family is really different. In this blind date, where there is no question about the daughter, the parents just watch."

She knew that maybe she was too anxious, which made Liu's suspicion, and she might not be sure to go to see it, so she was not in a hurry, said a few words to Liu, and then left.

Mrs. Liu saw that it was getting late, but she was too embarrassed to let her go, so she persuaded her to stay: "It's getting late, why don't you stay overnight and leave tomorrow."

Su Matchmaker was more than happy, and agreed on the spot, "That's annoying."

"We are so familiar with each other, talking about nonsense."

Although Su Matchmaker stayed, she couldn't stay idle, so she went out for a walk after dinner.

Qiu Huhu was powerful, it was still hot, and it was still bright after dinner, so she wandered around to have a look.

At the entrance of an alley, the two women smiled at her, "Oh, this sister-in-law is so kind."

Su Matchmaker is in her fifties, but she likes to pretend to be young, so in her [-]s and [-]s, she calls people Big Sister, so naturally she likes people to call her Big Sister or Big Sister-in-law.

She immediately looked over with a smile.

A slightly shorter woman smiled kindly, "Did you go to my sister-in-law's house, did you tell Xiuxian about kissing?"

Su Matchmaker immediately became alert, and heard the woman smile and say: "Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, we are the second and third sisters-in-law."

Su Matchmaker thought about it for a while, and it was indeed there, so she immediately laughed, "What a coincidence."

The three exchanged pleasantries immediately, and the third aunt warmly invited her home to talk, and the three hit it off immediately, and went to the third aunt's house together.

Xiujuan, Xiumei, and Xiuting were doing needlework at home. When the matchmaker saw it, she boasted, "Oh, it's really nice... Shui Ling's daughter."

When Xiumei and Xiuting heard this, they immediately became complacent. On weekdays, everyone only praised Xiuyao and never praised them, so she was not convinced.

Niang has always said that she is prettier than Xiurong, Xiuting is prettier than Xiuyao, and Xiujuan is prettier than Xiuxian.

Why does everyone only praise them as if they are blind?
The second aunt said angrily: "What's the use of Shui Ling, being overwhelmed by people everywhere, it can't even be said to be a good marriage."

Xiumei Ke Xiuting immediately looked angrily.

When the matchmaker heard this, her eyes brightened, and she asked them how old they were and what kind of person they were looking for, and said with a smile: "I'm not boasting, I've been a matchmaker for 40 years, and there's nothing I can't say. "

The third aunt asked what kind of family she told Xiuxian, and after hearing it, she immediately said enviously and jealously: "It's really a lucky life, such a family, our Xiujuan is nowhere near as bad."

Su Matchmaker smiled triumphantly, that Liu Shi is still dawdling, looking at other people, they are rushing to ask for it.

But she looked at the dilapidated house, there was nothing of value, the two women were dressed in ordinary clothes, and the three girls were not bad, but compared with the big house, not to mention the clothes With that kind of demeanor, it's almost unworthy of a girl.

I'm glad that Hu's family definitely doesn't want to do this.

After the matchmaker Su left, Mrs. Liu discussed going to Gaojiazhuang to visit.

It's just too far away, so it's not easy to find out, so I'm a little worried. If I can't find a place, or go wrong, it will be troublesome.

In the end, Xiuyao came up with a solution for them, first find those shopkeepers who have traveled long distances, and show them a way, where is the safest place to go, where to rest on the way, etc.Then bring a shrill kid with quick legs and a smart mouth, and Xiao Hei, that's enough.

Qin Dafu said joyfully: "Our girls still have a solution.

The couple packed up, and the next day they asked someone to draw a route, thinking about which villages they passed, and asked Zhou Lizheng to be a guarantor, then ordered Didan, brought enough dry food and pickles, and set off in the donkey cart up.

Mrs. Liu asked Qin Dafu, "Does that Gaojiazhuang belong to Jinan Prefecture or Yanzhou Prefecture?"

Qin Dafu thought for a while and said: "Yaoyao said that Yanzhou Prefecture is in the southwest, Tai'an Prefecture is in the east, and Xintai is in the southeast. We are going north to Changqing County, which should be Jinan Prefecture."

Mrs. Liu hummed, "That's right, let's go that way." Then he touched his close pocket, which contained scattered silver and their respective ID documents. If they entered the county town or encountered patrolling soldiers , that needs to be checked.

When I went there, I walked slowly because I was not familiar with the road. Although the journey was a little hard, there was no danger.

After noon that day, the three of them ate and took a rest. Didan took Dahei to inquire about it, and ran back happily.

"Auntie, uncle, I found it. Here we are, the one over there is Gaojiazhuang."

Mrs. Liu couldn't help being overjoyed, "Thank God, I've found it." She hurriedly asked Qin Dafu to drive over.

They walked along a yellow sandy road, which was spacious, and they saw a small village in front of them, which looked similar to Yangliu Village, with a family of more than a thousand.

The village is also surrounded by weeping willows, towering trees, and chickens and dogs can be heard from afar, no different from their village.

Liu's heart was satisfied again, and she just waited to meet Gao's parents before making a final decision.

They drove the donkey cart and saw that there was a studio at the entrance of the village, and there was an old man drying wheat in a house.

Qin Dafu went up to inquire personally, and the old man took a look at them, and saw that they were dusty and dressed in ordinary clothes, but their accent was not like his own.

However, when he heard them ask Happy Hu's family, he still showed them the way very enthusiastically, and kept saying that he should not go wrong.

That person called Gao Xinghu's father the old man of the Gao family, and his mother the grandma of the Gao family.

Looking at it this way, the status in the village is not low, similar to that of the Zhou family.

Qin Dafu asked casually if his family had a lot of land, and he was a big family here.

The old man smiled and said, "Yes, how did you become friends with their family?"

Qin Dafu said he was doing business, thanked him, and drove to Gao Xinghu's house.

There were also people who looked at them curiously on the road, and when they entered Gao's house, they all showed complicated expressions.

For the arrival of Qin Dafu and his wife, Gao Xinghu and his wife were clearly unprepared. He was surprised and delighted, "Uncle, Auntie, why don't you say hello if you want to come, so I can pick you up. You are in such a hurry, you are not prepared." What."

Qin Dafu exchanged pleasantries, but said in his heart: It's just that he didn't prepare anything, it's so clear.

They looked at the house with more than three people, maybe the old couple lived in it, and said that it was the house of another three people who married Gao Xinghu.

That's also very good, it seems that the Gao family is really a big family, so I can be regarded as a high climber.

Qin Dafu only looked at Liu Shi, and Liu Shi was also a little hesitant, only Di Dan looked curious and looked at everything he saw.

Gao Xinghu led them into the backyard, and went to talk in his parents' house. The Lius and his wife looked at this big courtyard, although they were not as elegant as the Zhou family, but they were still grand.

An old man with a gentle appearance, wearing a smoke-colored silk gown without a hat, with a wealthy and leisurely appearance.

When I saw them, I immediately stepped forward to greet them cordially and invited them in.

"The bitch is sick, it really makes the two of you laugh, it's rude and rude."

Qin Dafu and Liu Shi have never liked this kind of formality, so they just smiled and exchanged greetings, and they still went to see their sister-in-law.

Gao Yuanwai did not refuse, "Old lady, Brother Qin and his sister-in-law from Taoyuan Village are here to see you."

Immediately a thin voice came from the room, "Oh, come in, come in."

Mrs. Liu saw the eldest lady of the Gao family, she was gentle and kind, and she was quite good-looking. She was a little older than herself, but she was dressed no older than herself.

Hearing that she spoke very softly, not pretending at all, Liu Shi was even more satisfied.

The tall lady was wearing fine cotton clothes, sitting on the kang, smiling slightly, she didn't talk much except for letting them have snacks and tea, and only the senior officials said.

When it comes to the marriage of children, Gao Yuanwai even agreed, with a very talkative look, "What Mrs. Su said is what we said about the betrothal gift, and we told her at the time that as long as we have it, as long as the in-laws want We will give whatever you want, anyway, when the girl comes in, she will be a member of our Gao family, and the things will be given to their young couple to live. We are just such a single seedling, and it’s not all theirs."

Liu Shi was a little more satisfied.

In this conversation, everyone has a good impression of each other, and time flies quickly.

Gao Yuanwai and his wife insisted on keeping Mrs. Liu and the others for a night, "I have come all the way, but I will stay here for a few days and have fun here. Tomorrow, I will take them to our main house in Lizheng. It’s not in vain to come here for a walk.”

Anyway, it was getting late, so Liu Shi and Qin Dafu stayed here, and Gao Yuanwai sent a little girl to take care of them.

The left and right are just delivering water, snacks, melons and fruits, so Qin Dafu and his wife are not uncomfortable.

During dinner, Gao Xinghu came in with a forty-something woman with a sharp face and fierce eyes. As soon as she entered the door, she snarled, "Why, are you eating it?"
