Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 56

Li Shi was startled, but immediately understood, glanced at Liu Xu, and quickly smiled at the matchmaker: "The girl is just kidding." Then she said to Liu Xu, "Hurry up and apologize to your sister-in-law."

Although Liu Xu was not happy, but she made a mistake first and was caught again, so she had to deal with it a few times and said: "I went to weave."

Xiuyao pulled Qin Yang and quickly apologized. Qin Yang was still thinking about riding a donkey, so he ran out.

Xiuyao hurriedly apologized to Matchmaker Sun, and then said to Mrs. Li: "Grandmother, my aunt didn't do it on purpose. We misunderstood that she was looking for tofu grinding, but we didn't expect that she was looking for us to grind noodles." , confused." Then he said to Sun Matchmaker: "Aunt Sun, I'm sorry, it's because we misheard, let you make a trip for nothing."

The matchmaker Sun laughed when she saw that the little girl was so talkative, and she was no longer angry, and said: "It's okay, it's okay, anyway, I will treat it as a digestion." Then she talked to Li Shi, "Auntie, I am really Let me tell you the truth. Although people say that the matchmaker opens his mouth, when did I tell you it was a lie? Our neighbors are so close, we can't see each other when we look up, can I talk nonsense? Right. "

Mrs. Li smiled, "That's true, the Seventh Mammy said you are reliable, it's not a lie."

Sun Matchmaker smiled and said, "That's right, otherwise I wouldn't be able to introduce me, right? Let me tell you, my eldest nephew is quite a good person. He has a wealthy family, runs a grocery store, and has dozens of acres of fertile land. The most important thing is that he is an only son, and all the houses and land in the family have been given to him. When it is done, we will change the name." He laughed again.

Li said: "The family doesn't need to be rich, just about the same as us. It doesn't matter if you have many brothers, the key is how you are, whether you are diligent or not, and whether you are not doing your duty?"

Matchmaker Sun laughed, and patted Li, "Oh, my aunt, if I don't do my duty, I can open my mouth like this. Didn't I slap my own mouth? Don't worry, he is not only handsome, but also has the best temper. He is docile and will never bully his wife, not only that, he is in charge of the land and shop at home, and his parents are already resting and enjoying themselves."

When Mrs. Li heard that she was a good family, she was moved, "Then I will discuss it with the old man."

Sun Matchmaker smiled and said, "Auntie, what are you talking about? Such a nice family, if your Seventh Aunt is not embarrassed to come, you still use me as a relative?"

Mrs. Li said with a smile, "It's better for our old man to come back and discuss it." Children's affairs cannot be settled just by saying this.

Matchmaker Sun had no choice but to give up, and saw that Liu Xu was indeed a good one, with a handsome appearance, and she was also good at spinning and weaving, tailoring and sewing all day long, and was also good at cooking. If you say it, you have to talk about it.

Mrs. Li sent her to the door, and Sun Matchmaker said again: "Auntie, you can let my elder brother go and find out, anyway, Chakou Village is not far away, just walk up."

It's several miles away, and I can't get there just by lifting my feet. The family is very busy and I don't have so much time to spend. Naturally, the old man nodded and went to inquire quietly.

Mrs. Li sent her away with a smile, then went back to the backyard, opened the door and entered Liu Xu's room, Liu Yun and Liu Xia went to another room to do needlework, Liu Xu and Xiuyao were discussing the pattern of weaving.

She smiled at Xiuyao: "Girl, you go out first, I'll have something to say to your aunt."

Xiuyao immediately understood that the matchmaker was appointed to propose a marriage to her aunt. At home, sister Xia's marriage was already settled, and the matter between her second cousin and cousin Yun was also planned. There was no need for an outside matchmaker to come in and talk about it. Of course it belongs to my aunt.

Sure enough, Liu Xu's face changed a little, "Mother—"

Although Mrs. Li dotes on her daughter on weekdays, she can't be too conniving when it comes to major events in her life. She turned her face down, "You girl, you are muddleheaded in doing things. You offended the matchmaker, and you are careful to ruin your reputation."

Liu Xuhun said indifferently: "Who is afraid of her? Besides, a matchmaker with ten tongues, who will believe her words?"

Li Shi said: "You silly girl, I think you have been spoiled by me and your father. Without a matchmaker, this marriage cannot be done. Besides, Sun Matchmaker has never cheated us, so you can't do that to her."

Liu Xu snorted, "Mom, I'm not going to marry anyway, so I'm staying at home."

Li's head hurts a little, "You stubborn girl, how can a girl stay in her mother's house all her life?"

Liu Xu said: "Why not? I have hands and feet. I can support myself by spinning and weaving. I just don't have to eat at my brother's and sister-in-law's house. Don't I even have a place to live? Then I'll go out and live. "

"Sannier, you are so stupid!" Li Shi became angry, her face turned pale, "Listen to what nonsense you are talking about? They say you are sensible, think about what you are talking about?"

Liu Xu lowered her head and remained silent, Li said earnestly, "Girl, can a mother harm you? How can a girl never marry? Last time it was your Seventh Mother who was careless, but she didn't do it on purpose. , it's been so long, why are you still holding on?"

With tears in her eyes, Liu Xu said stubbornly, "Why isn't she careless about her own daughter? Get me such a crooked hooligan, what does she think I am?"

Mrs. Li sighed, "Even if we were wrong at the time, we can't just be suffocated by a stick and never get up again. Besides, that matter is over, and few people know it. Can't turn the corner."

Liu Xu's tears fell down and she wiped them hard, "Mom, I forgot, but you have to get a matchmaker to remind me."

Seeing her crying, Mrs. Li quickly wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Okay, okay, it's my mother's fault, then tell mother, why are you willing to get married?"

Liu Xu kept a white face and refused to say anything, Li Shi asked again and again, and she finally said: "Anyway, I will not leave my parents, if you want me to marry, just find someone to step in."

Mrs. Li couldn't help but take a deep breath, this girl is really spoiled, the Liu family has a son, how can she invert the door?Besides, how could the son of a good family let his son go to the door?
"Girl, don't tell your father that." She knew the old man well, he looked like a hey, hey, hey old man with no temper, but he was scary when he was stubborn.

These fathers really have a temper.

Liu Xu threw herself into Li's arms, "Mother, I won't marry anyway."

Mrs. Li sighed, hey, everyone said that every family has scriptures that are hard to recite, it is true, their old Liu family has no worries about food and clothing, harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, sisters-in-law and harmonious, the mill is getting better and better now, let anyone look at it. Prosperous envy, but what can she do as an old girl?

It's just that Liu Xu's temper, Mrs. Li, also knows that she and the old man are used to it. If she is in a hurry, she can really jump into the river, so she can only persuade her slowly, thinking whether to let the second daughter come back to persuade her, She has been close to her second sister since she was a child, maybe it will work.

Mrs. Li made up her mind, coaxed her daughter not to marry first, and waited, and then wanted to inquire, to see if Sun Dacheng was really as good as Sun Matchmaker said, or if she was just selling melons.

As a result, Old Qintou went to inquire about it himself, and he came back and said he was a good guy, and everyone knew him. Those who had been to Yangliu Village all said he was a good young man.Mrs. Li happily told Liu Xu, but Liu Xu didn't say anything.

Mrs. Li was anxious, "If you don't marry, how long will your niece be delayed?"

Liu Xu said: "I'm still young, so it's okay to let them get married first."

Mrs. Li reprimanded lightly: "Nonsense, are you still young? If you turn around, you're still an old girl."

Liu Xu was not convinced, "You still have twenty unmarried."

"It's because she can't get married, it's not that she doesn't want to get married." Li Shi became more anxious when she saw that she was talking about those old girls who couldn't get married for various reasons, "Anyway, we think that Sun Dacheng is a good one. Dad will make a decision. If you don't make a decision, your niece will be delayed by you." Li Shi felt that Sun Dacheng was good, and he was not afraid to use this to overwhelm his daughter, so he discussed with Lao Liutou to make a decision.

After all the sweet potatoes were planted, Xiuyao thought that in a few days it would be busy in summer, so she wanted to go home, so as not to be scolded by her mother again, who knew that Qin Ye would come to pick them up early in the morning.

Qin Ye came here on foot, covered with dust, his face was sweating, and he fanned his face with his sleeves.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the mill in his grandfather's house had changed, and he said curiously, "Grandpa, our mill is different."

Old Liutou smiled and said: "That's right, it's all Yaoyao's credit, that girl has a flexible mind, so I also think it's the case, so I calculated it with your third grandfather and changed the mill It's done like this."

Qin Ye was very happy. Xiuyao and Qin Yang ran out when they heard their brother was coming, and Liu Fei was going to school.

Qin Ye saw that he was neatly dressed and still held a bound book in his hand, and asked curiously, "Hey, why is Xiaofei going?"

Liu Fei smiled and said, "Brother, I'm going to study."

Qin Ye's eyes widened, reading?Grandpa sent younger brother to study?I used to talk about people's fate, why did I suddenly study?He was curious to read the old Liutou's joke, and the old Liutou laughed happily, "Yaoyao said that in that play, they all sang about studying well, and I think it's the same. Let your brother learn a few words, and keep accounts at home." Or if there is something wrong, I won’t be blind.”

Qin Yelian said yes, and he also found out in Zhou's house that those who can read are not the same as those who read. Those who read can enter the study to serve, and have to be watched by Uncle Zhou. Those who cannot read can only do rough work, and the wages are much worse. Woolen cloth.

After Liu Fei left, Qin Ye followed his grandfather to the mill to have a look. He wanted to help, but the old Liu quickly grabbed him and said with a smile: "Daye, rest, don't be too busy, each of them is guarding a mill." Well, don't move."

Qin Ye saw that it was really like that, and saw that there were no animals at uncle's place, so he said, "I will help uncle grind."

Old Liu told him to rest quickly, "I'm tired enough at home, what else is there to do here, go to the back and wash your hands, and let your grandma cook you something to eat."

Qin Ye was ashamed. Grandpa really knew everything. He was chased by his mother early in the morning, so he really had nothing to eat.

Old Liutou accompanied him to the backyard. Unlike other children, Daye was now 16 years old and counted as a child. To pay the child tax, he had to be treated as an adult. He could no longer be treated as a child, and he had to be given the respect he deserved.

Qin Ye said hello to each of them first, and said to Li: "Grandma, don't be so busy, just bring me something for breakfast, anyway, it's almost summer and it won't be cold."

Li Shi said: "I'll warm you up very quickly. Although it's warm, you can't eat cold food."

Qin Ye said with a smile: "Nurse, it's not harmful. I work at Zhou's house, and it's often cold." When I'm busy, I can't be as free as I am at home. I must finish my work before I can eat, even in winter. In this way, he is used to it.

But Li Shi sighed, these children, grandchildren and grandchildren are all hers, and they all feel sorry for them, so they went to make him a hot meal and lay an egg.

Qin Ye reluctantly ate the egg, and gave it to Xiuyao and Qin Yang, Xiuyao said: "Brother, eat it, we ate it."

After Qin Ye finished his meal and sat down for a while to drink a bowl of water, he got up to say goodbye and took his younger siblings home.

Mrs. Li didn't prepare before, so she didn't pack up her things. Seeing that he was leaving in a hurry, she hurriedly packed up a few catties of noodles and brought them with her.

Qin Ye hurriedly said: "Grandma, you don't need to bring anything, Yaoyao and Yangyang have lived here for so long, and we have nothing to honor, how can we take it back?"

Mrs. Li said with a smile: "Take it back, your mother will be happy if you take some back."

Qin Ye refused, and insisted not to take it. Xiuyao also told her grandma not to trouble her. She and Qin Yang tidied up a little. Anyway, it was just two pieces of clothes, nothing else.Qin Yang, on the other hand, made a lot of small toys here, such as small wicker flower baskets and small wooden horses and whips, and asked Qin Ye to help him carry them.

On the way, Qin Ye carried his younger brother on his back and led his younger sister. In order to take care of her, he didn't walk very fast.

While walking, Xiuyao suddenly said: "Brother, is something wrong with our family?"

Qin Ye's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect the little girl to be so sensitive, even her grandparents didn't notice it. How did she know?He lowered his head and glanced at Xiuyao, "Did you hear that from the grinder?"

Xiuyao shook her head, "No, I just think that elder brother seems a little unhappy."

Xiuyao also admitted that she was sensitive, and she felt that something was wrong when her eldest brother came, and she always felt that her smile was a bit forced.The eldest brother was not like this before. The eldest brother has the simplicity and honesty of a farm child, which makes people feel warm.

Qin Ye is not a liar, seeing Xiuyao's question, he said: "It's nothing, it's just a fight to separate."

Split up?OK!Xiuyao's eyes lit up, so it's not a good idea for a big family to eat a big pot of rice, but it's better to divide it up quickly, that's the best way, each will live his own life.

Seeing that she had a happy face, Qin Ye couldn't help being a little dazed. He didn't like to separate his family. We had been together since childhood, and we were used to it. After we separated, we always felt that there would be divisions. It's time to stop kissing.
