The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 63

Xiaomi didn't expect her to be so open, and she liked her straightforwardness, so she nodded and said, "Yeah, sister Yuexian, do you have something to tell me... um, my big brother?"

Chen Yuexian's face turned even redder, but she still said, "I want to have a few words with him."

Xiaomi was surprised, this request was indeed shocking, but this was in the Chen family, as long as the two elders of the Chen family agreed, even if they couldn't reach an agreement, and the gossip couldn't spread, it wouldn't affect both parties.

"Okay, I'll go talk to my brother."

Boss Lu was waiting for his sister in the living room, and his days seemed like years, like sitting on pins and needles.He is usually soft-hearted and honest, but he is not stupid.The second elder of the Chen family caught him and kept asking him about every detail, if he didn't feel anything strange, he would be a fool.

Thinking of the water-blue figure he saw the day before yesterday, with the toe of the shoe inlaid with pearls, his face was so red that he almost dripped blood.

After finally looking forward to his sister's return, he wished he could go out and go home immediately.

"Xiaomi, it's getting late, should we go shopping?"

"Not busy, brother, just wait a moment, I have a few words with Uncle Chen."

Xiaomi waved his hand and walked up to the elders of the Chen family, and said a few words in a low voice. Shopkeeper Chen hesitated, but Mrs. Zheng nodded.Of course, she knows best about her own daughter, she looks gentle and sensible, but she is actually the most assertive, if she doesn't like her, I'm afraid there will be twists and turns in the future.

Seeing this, Xiaomi turned around and pulled Boss Lu, and said quietly, "Brother, you must have guessed it at night. The Chen family intends to betroth their daughter to you. I just met Sister Yuexian. She is beautiful and gentle. Well, she can read and read, and the most important thing is to manage accounts. She also knows the family's plans, so she wants to meet you and have a few words with you. Don't be nervous. What you want to say is a major event in your life after all. In case Don't force yourself if you don't get along, outsiders don't know about this, and they won't spread gossip."

Boss Lu was so nervous that he didn't know where to put his hands, and his face was so red that he was afraid of others, "This, Xiaomi...can't, I..."

"If there is anything that can't be done, just do it."

Xiaomi pulled the eldest brother up and went to the second gate.

The corner door, which was wide open before, is now half closed, and a tall girl can be vaguely seen standing behind the door.

Boss Lu swallowed hard, and then glanced at his younger sister who was a few steps behind, before bowing firmly and bowing, "Miss Chen, Sister She is causing you trouble."

"No trouble," Chen Yuexian moved towards the door, seeing Boss Lu's distressed appearance, for some reason he felt more at ease.

"Brother Lu, I...my parents love me so much, I'm afraid they didn't tell the truth to your family. I made an appointment with a baby girl before, but the person accidentally fell into the water and disappeared. There are rumors that I... Kefu, if you don't mind, As if you never came to our Chen family today..."

"No, no," Boss Chen fixed his eyes on the pearl shoe in the door, but he was helpless when he wanted to say something, and finally he could only say, "I'm not afraid!"

"Pfft!" Chen Yuexian couldn't help laughing, which gave Boss Lu courage. He quickly looked up at Chen Yuexian, then lowered his head and said, "I'm the boss of the family. I can't study well, so I can only help my younger sister with the family. , In the future, I will provide for my father and take care of my younger brothers and sisters. If you... you will suffer... think about it, but if you are not afraid, I will... treat you well."

Chen Yuexian's heart warmed when he heard that, such a sincere man doesn't know how to talk sweetly, just say "I'm good to you", simple and straightforward, but it's something all women in the world desire.

"Okay, I believe you."

The corner door squeaked and closed completely, and there were footsteps behind the door fading away.

Boss Lu was stunned for a while and didn't speak, but Xiaomi tugged him and asked in a low voice, "How is it, brother, are you looking for a matchmaker?"

Boss Lu suddenly turned around, so ashamed that he wanted to find a mouse hole to get in, but he didn't say a word because he was afraid that his sister would misunderstand, so he really rejected his wife...

"Yes, Miss Chen is a good girl."

"Okay, okay!" Xiaomi smiled happily, turned around and ran to find the second elder of the Chen family who was about to stretch his neck two miles away.

"Uncle Chen, ma'am, let's go back today, and in a few days, people will come to talk about the happy event."

Shopkeeper Chen and the old couple were overjoyed when they heard this, they nodded repeatedly, and after seeing off the Xiaomi brothers and sisters, Mrs. Zheng went straight to the backyard to find the girl to talk about herself.

Besides, Xiaomi was in a good mood, so he caught Boss Lu as a porter, went in and out of the butcher shop, the grain shop, the grocery store, and bought a lot. Finally, he went outside the city to pick up the stored carriage and hurried back to Laoxiongling.

Although Father Lu usually keeps his ears to the outside world except for teaching naughty children to read, and only concentrates on reading, it is not a trivial matter for his son to see his wife.

As soon as Xiaomi entered the door, he saw his father sitting under the eaves with a book in his hand, looking anxious, so he laughed, and ran to report to his father without taking a drink.

Father Lu was delighted to hear that the girls of the Chen family had good character and behavior, and that he liked his son so much. He stroked his beard and nodded, "In this way, it's a good marriage."

"That's right, dad. We will rest assured that you will live by elder brother's side and marry a good sister-in-law."

Xiaomi thought about it, and picked out what he heard from his brother on the road, but Father Lu didn't believe it at all, "It's just rumors from ignorant people in the market, you can't believe it."

Xiaomi has been influenced by atheism for more than [-] years in his previous life, and naturally he would not believe any lies about Kefuke's wife, so he smiled and said, "Father, then I will buy a door-to-door gift, and then I need you to come forward and talk to the matchmaker. It’s not rude.”

"I know, don't worry."

Father Lu responded happily, and even changed his clothes in the end, took a car to find a classmate he hadn't seen for a long time, and brought back a few gift slips when it got dark.Not only the door-to-door gift, but also the betrothal gift were clearly written, which helped Xiaomi a lot.

The eighteen households in Laoxiongling live very close together, and now they are busy with the construction as a single rope, so naturally there is nothing to hide.

Xiaomi just found Aunt Liu to inquire about a reliable matchmaker, and almost everyone in the village knew that Boss Lu was getting engaged.

Those who like to joke can't help but say a few words. Seeing Boss Lu blushing and avoiding, the rough men, young and old, laughed earth-shatteringly.

Of course, some women began to regret it, and they regretted that the fat around their mouths was taken away by foxes.

If I had known that the Lu family planned to discuss marriage with Boss Lu, shouldn't I ask someone to mention my daughter first?Married at the door of the family, and the Lu family is so rich, it really fell into a pit of fortune.

It's a pity, now that Xiaomi has been looking for a matchmaker to come to change his horoscope, it's too late to say anything, just waiting to see what the girl of the Chen family looks like, and she is very satisfied with a shrewd person like Xiaomi.

Xiaomi didn't have the time to think about everyone's thoughts. She compared several gift lists, and she always felt that it was too shabby to put only a few books and a piece of cloth in the door-to-door gift. It must be that the scholarly family pays attention to simplicity.But the Chen family is a merchant, so they want to add some gold and silver.

So she racked her brains to draw a pair of bracelets with a new style and sent them to the silver building to be made.

The shopkeeper of the silver building only charged the cost of the silver materials, and ignored the rest, and only asked to keep the drawings.Xiaomi has nothing to be reluctant about, as she has a good relationship, after all, she has nothing else but a lot of brothers.

The eldest brother Lu is married, and the second child Lu, the third child Lu...

Xiaomi resolutely suppressed his own thoughts, so as not to worry about the future, one after another after work, let's toss about marrying his eldest brother a wife first.

The matchmaker that Aunt Liu helped to find was Aunt Peng, who was well-known in all villages.When she came to the door, even though Father Lu received her, Xiaomi took good care of Aunt Peng several times by taking care of the tea and snacks.

The old lady is in her 50s, her clothes are not as gaudy as imagined, she is very clean and tidy, she laughs before she speaks, and she looks good when she drinks tea and snacks.This is for Xiaomi to rest assured that when he paid hard-earned money, he added an extra [-] Wen, after all, he may have to visit frequently in the future.

On the way Aunt Peng was picked up by the Lu family's carriage, she did not hesitate to think about it. The Lu family has four children, who are said to be rich and generous. If she helps out this marriage, there will definitely be benefits.

Sure enough, before she stepped into the woman's door, she got a reward of fifty coins, and she was so happy that she couldn't hold her tongue from ear to ear.

"Master Lu, don't worry, my wife can't do anything else, but marriage is the best. This happy event will be on me."

Xiaomi handed over the box containing the door-to-door gift, causing her to seize the opportunity to take a second look. In the end, her heart became even hotter, but she didn't dare to say anything more.

The Chen family is not as impatient as before because they have confidence in their hearts, but the Zheng family also invites the maids and women to clean the courtyard all day long, and recruits tailors to come to make new clothes for the daughter. It's also convenient.

The Chen family has always been quiet, so the sudden excitement will naturally arouse the curiosity of the neighbors. After questioning, a young man said that he missed a sentence or a half, so the long-tongued women could guess. .

Therefore, the news that Chen Jiakefu's girl wanted to get engaged was known far and wide in less than a day.

Mrs. Zheng heard about it from the mother-in-law who went out to buy. She dropped the teacup in annoyance, and finally hugged her daughter and cried for a while. In the end, I will be poisoned by these saliva.

If the Lu family knew the details and didn't come to propose marriage, wouldn't the girl become the laughing stock of the whole city again.

Chen Yuexian had no other choice, so he endured his shame and said what Boss Lu said that day, and the second elder of the Chen family was relieved.

The weather was fine that day, and the sun hiding behind the clouds finally remembered that he had to go to work, so he finally showed his face, and the world that was almost moldy from the sun immediately became dry and warm.

When Aunt Peng came to the door, shopkeeper Chen had already gone to the shop, and Mrs. Zheng immediately sent someone to call him back.

This kind of marriage where both men and women have a tacit understanding is the favorite of matchmakers. You don't need to think about it, just say more festive words, hand in the horoscope and the door-to-door gift, and wait to get the reward.

Sure enough, the two elders of the Chen family readily agreed to the advance of the Chen family, accepted the eight-character post from boss Chen, and happily gave a heavy purse.

The festive words in Aunt Peng's mouth were like flowing water, coaxing the old couple from ear to ear.
