Chapter 61
"That's natural. If Fu Sheng is not good, I can't marry my daughter to him."
"Success, success, it's up to you to know the pearl with your eyes, okay?"
The old couple kept talking and laughing, and they both felt much more relaxed.In the backyard, Chen Yuexian was slowly taking off the veil on his face, revealing a fair and dignified face, which now looked a little more charming because of the blush.
Chunxi, the close maid beside her, whispered non-stop, "Miss, this young man is a good man. I pretended to be pitiful, but he was not tempted, but because I am a woman, he won't let me do the work. And he is not strong enough. It’s such a big, heavy basket, I picked it up as soon as I stretched out my hand, and it looked... well, it didn’t look like it was short-lived.”
Chen Yuexian lowered her head halfway, so that Chunxi couldn't see her expression clearly, and it took her a long time to hear her say, "The material that elder brother sent back has been cut these days, and I want to make a set of clothes for my parents. In addition, I will go to the front in a while The courtyard told my father that the account books in the shop should also be closed."
"Ah..." Chunxi blinked her eyes, feeling a little puzzled. Isn't it time to inquire about the character of the future son-in-law? Why is the young lady busy with work, but the young lady always has ideas, so she dared not ask, so she quickly responded , "Yes, Miss."
The few books on the window sill were flipped by the mischievous summer wind, revealing the geographical map of mountains and rivers inside. It is obvious that these are travel journals that should not appear in the boudoir...
On the day of April, the face of a child changes as soon as it is said.
When I went out in the morning, the sun was still shining brightly, but a thick dark cloud floated from nowhere, and it rained, which happened to pour Lu Boss all the way.
Spring rain is as expensive as oil. This is true. After the next year, there will only be one rain in the early spring, and the farmers' eyes will be red with anticipation.
Now that their wish has finally come true, everyone who is happy doesn't know what to do.
On the field ridges by the roadside, you can see people walking in the rain in coir raincoats or simply with their heads bare.
In the field, it wasn't long before the budding seedlings got out of the ground, only two or three leaves, carefully raised their heads in the rain, drinking water desperately.
Boss Lu turned into his own mountain pass and walked through the woods. Seeing that the two acres of corn had grown almost as high as his waist, he unconsciously puffed out his chest, and the joy in his heart couldn't be expressed.
Lu Xiaomi happened to be walking down the mountain, and just looked around the well.The Zhong family worked very hard, and their craftsmanship was still as good as the first well. They wished that every stone was stacked neatly.On the contrary, Xiaomi felt sorry for seeing it, and tried to persuade him a few words.
The first well was used for drinking water by the villagers, and it would be more convenient to build more wells.But the wells in Datian are only used to fetch water in the dry season, and it would be a waste of effort if they were built so neatly.
But the Zhong family refused, and they worked piously and seriously.This made Xiaomi very admired, and specially told Aunt Liu to cook a few people, don't save money, so that the Zhong family and the uncle in the village must be full.
Aunt Liu naturally responded to everything, and the Lu family was generous, so they would not be that villain.How long has it been? Not to mention the stronger arms of the men, and the few of them who ate with each other every day, they all gained a lot of weight.
After half an hour of spring rain, it changed to drizzle, covering the entire mountain forest in misty rain and mist, which was so beautiful.
Lu Xiaomi saw Boss Lu looking at Baogutian with a smirk all over his body, so he put on a big straw hat and went up to him, shouting, "Brother, why are you standing here?"
Boss Lu turned around and saw that it was his younger sister, so he smiled and said, "I just came back from delivering the food, are you going home?"
"Go back."
Xiaomi jumped on the shaft of the car, dangling his legs, just like those naughty children who were studying at home.
For fear that his sister would catch a cold, Boss Lu straightened her straw hat to completely cover her thin body, then pulled the reins and drove the old horse up the hill.
"Is the entry into the city going well? Have you met shopkeeper Chen?"
Xiaomi casually tore a branch beside the road, shook it cheerfully, and asked his brother casually.
Boss Lu hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Well, shopkeeper Chen has something to do, so he asked me to send the dishes home."
"Ah, this old man is too shrewd in business, I don't know which rich man he is planning to cheat."
Xiaomi didn't notice his brother's strange expression at all, and turned to talk about other trivial matters at home.
The brothers and sisters came chatting along the way, and soon arrived at the gate of their own yard.
As a result, just as Xiaomi jumped off the shaft, he heard someone chasing after him, shouting, "Miss Lu, Miss Lu!"
Xiaomi turned around and saw that he was a small steward in Shopkeeper Chen's shop. He was very trusted by Shopkeeper Chen on weekdays, and recently he often came to Lu's house to pick up vegetables, so the villagers guarding the mountain pass did not stop him and let him walk to the gate of Lu's house.
Lu Xiaomi hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Steward Liu, why did you come after me? My elder brother just came back from the city."
Manager Liu took a few breaths, but took a package from his back.
"This is the material that our young master brought from Kyoto to make a spring shirt for our lady. Our shopkeeper looked at it and asked me to wrap a piece and ask the young master to bring it back to the girl. As a result, I forgot it when I got busy in the morning. There was no other way." That's why I hurried over. Otherwise, our shopkeeper will know, and I'm afraid he will talk about me for many days."
Xiaomi finished the package, opened the gap to look at the elegant silk and satin inside, always felt that something was wrong.But he still responded, "Okay, Manager Xiao Liu, I'll trouble you to make a trip, and thank you shopkeepers for me when you get back."
"Miss Lu, you are welcome. Our lady likes this color very much, but our wife said it is too plain. Our lady is not engaged yet, so we should wear something brighter."
Manager Xiao Liu smiled and said a few more words before leaving and going back.
Xiaomi carried the package and entered the door. Seeing that his eldest brother was going to unload the carriage, he asked, "Brother, you went to the Chen family's yard just now, who did you see?"
Boss Lu's subordinates kept busy, and responded, "The shopkeeper Chen was not at home earlier, and I saw Mrs. Chen, um... There was also a maid. Later, the shopkeeper Chen came back and let me have a bite of food."
"Oh, good." Xiaomi nodded and went straight back to the backyard without saying anything.
Xiao'e ate and slept well in the past two days, and insisted on changing the dressing for the wound.Yesterday, Mrs. Jiang helped to clean up the west wing room, wiped all the wooden utensils clean, dried the bedding and curtains, and moved Xiao'e there this morning.
At this moment, it was sunny after the rain, and Lu Lao Er caught a litter of rabbits somewhere, and put them at Xiao'e's feet.The little rabbit, perhaps the first litter in the beginning of spring, has just grown an inch of short hair, white, gray, and black and white, looking from a distance, it is fluffy and extremely cute.
Sitting on the stone bench, Xiao'e kept laughing because the little rabbit sniffed the corner of her skirt. She wanted to lift her feet to avoid the wound, but she laughed more cheerfully under the contradiction.
Lu Er Er stood aside, smiling like a fool.Lu Xiaomi really wanted to open his brother's head to see if there was egg custard or tofu residue in it?
On weekdays, he looks like he hasn't grown up, wishing he could eat a steamed stuffed bun and fight Gao Ren to the death.Now he suddenly became enlightened again, knowing how to please women.
Thanks to her worrying about him, she might as well laugh at him in the end.
Xiaomi tried his best to press the jar of vinegar in his heart, unwilling to knock it over, but his body was already filled with a strong sour smell...
Lu Wu was so nervous that he could run a horse-drawn carriage, so he couldn't tell that his sister's expression was wrong, and he greeted with a smirk, "Xiaomi, you're back! I caught a rabbit, why don't you choose one to play with?"
There were eight rabbits running all over the ground, and there was only one for the younger sister.This is a typical case of having the opposite sex without family affection!
On the contrary, Xiao'e blushed a little, and added, "I'm just looking at it for fun, I don't know how to raise it, so give it to... Miss Lu."
Xiaomi secretly rolled her eyes, and the two sang together, as if she had become an evil mother-in-law who beat mandarin ducks, or a pregnant witch who robbed the little white rabbit, in short, her image was extremely bad.
"Let's play, I'm still busy."
Xiaomi didn't bother to pay attention to the two of them, and went straight into the room. After opening the piece of clothing, he couldn't find anything special after shaking it inside and out. Then he finally confirmed that the shopkeeper Chen was probably thinking of marrying his daughter into the Lu family.
As for the candidate he likes, Xiaomi doesn't have to bother to guess, there is no one else except Boss Lu.
Lu Laosan was not at home all the year round, and no girl's father would appreciate Lu Lao Er's careless appearance. Only Lu Laosan was taciturn, but hardworking and reliable, and had the most dealings with shopkeeper Chen on weekdays.
Thinking about it carefully, although the Chen family is a merchant, the shopkeeper Chen is shrewd and reasonable, and Chen Xin, the eldest son, is also very good, at least he is quite loyal.As for the Lu family, the third Lu is going to be an official through the scientific examination, and the second Lu...it's good if he doesn't go out and cause trouble. Only the eldest Lu has to support the family, shoulder the burden of taking care of his younger brother, and be filial to his father.
If Miss Chen's character is good and her personality is good, then it would be best to help Boss Lu maintain the appearance of the Lu family in the future.
Thinking like this, Lu Xiaomi couldn't sit still.After a simple change of clothes, she went to the front yard. The naughty boy had just finished school, and Father Lu was sitting in the teacher's chair drinking tea tiredly.
There was no need for Xiaomi to beat around the bush when discussing housework with his father. After talking about the matter, he said tentatively at the end, "Father, although the Chen family is a merchant, it is very good to see the shopkeeper Chen doing things on weekdays. I think the daughter of the family is also a good teacher. You see..."
Father Lu waved his hand, watching his daughter's eyes gradually gather guilt.
"Xiaomi, it's really hard for you. Your mother left early, and you are already tired enough to support the family. Now you have to bother about your elder brother's marriage. It's useless for me to be a father. "
Father Lu sighed, and said again, "As long as you are optimistic about the marriage of your brothers, it will be settled. Father is not in the mood and is not willing to participate. But you, if you don't like other girls, even if your brother is interested, Neither!"
Xiaomi's heart was sour when she heard this, she was surprised that she always trusted and pampered her so much, she wanted to say a few words coquettishly, but felt awkward, so she smiled, "Okay, Dad, don't worry, I will definitely choose some filial piety for you A good and sensible daughter-in-law."
The father and daughter chatted a few gossips, Xiaomi was completely relieved, and went to cook.
