take a wife to support the family

Chapter 85

On the morning of August [-]th, Lily got up and cooked a pot of thick porridge, steamed two tender corn cobs, fried omelets, cut a plate of pickles, and a hearty breakfast was all she needed.

Song Haonian also woke up early, and prepared his luggage on the sidelines. This time, he had to pack thick clothes when he went into the mountain, including traumatic injuries, antidote, dry food, scythe, oilcloth, etc. Lily packed them all and put them in the luggage.

He also needs to check his knives, axes, bows and arrows, and bring several coils of rope of different thicknesses, just in case they are needed.

The breakfast is sumptuous, full of affection, Song Haonian can eat it.

Lily didn't have much to say for a while, she only advised Song Haonian to eat more from time to time, he said to Lily: "Don't just blame me, I won't lose myself, you should eat more."

As he spoke, he sighed: "When I'm not around, take care of yourself."

When he said a word, Lily's eye circles turned red, and she quickly lowered her head and pretended to drink porridge.

The two have lived together for so long and know each other well, how can she hide her strangeness from his eyes?Song Haonian was most afraid of seeing Lily crying, so he hurriedly walked up to her and hugged her: "Why are you crying? I'll be back in a month."

He was also reluctant to part with such a delicate daughter-in-law, but a man had to support his family, and it would be comfortable to lie on a high bed at home, so he would have to wait for the sky to drop food.

If you're not God's own son, don't think about such good things.

It's not that Lily doesn't understand reason, but the thought of parting makes her very sad.She didn't want Song Haonian to leave uneasy, so she hurriedly said, "Go and eat well, I'll be fine in a while."

Song Haonian didn't let go, and wiped her face: "Look at you, you're crying like a cat."

Lily's eyes widened: "Impossible!"

She doesn't wear makeup, and there is no dirt on her hands, how could she become a cat?

Only then did Song Haonian smile and feed her two bites of egg pancakes, and asked her to drink porridge so as not to choke, like coaxing a child, he endured the unbearable sadness, at least he put on a happy expression.

Although there was reluctance to part last time, the two of them were not so affectionate, this time it was the time when they couldn't leave, and it was really heartbreaking, Song Haonian thought fiercely, why not take his wife to the mountains together.

Immediately afterwards he shook his head, it was cold in the mountains, they would not be able to avoid danger when they went hunting, even brothers who were slightly less skilled, they would need a few more people to take care of them, let alone a daughter-in-law?
No matter what, he couldn't bear Lily to suffer that, taking her into the mountain was just a delusion after all, it wouldn't work.

Thinking of this, Song Haonian sighed, hugged Lily and said: "I'll be back in a month, you wait for me at home, eat whatever you want, don't save me, you'll gain some weight."

Speaking of the common words, Lily gradually became less sad, and told him one after another: drink hot water and eat hot meals outside, don't catch cold in the wind and rain, and don't rush forward when you are in danger. think about home...

After all, it was something that he had to say every time we parted, but he didn't feel like rambling, he listened carefully, his heart seemed to have been ironed once, it was sore and appropriate.

The young couple said goodbye to each other for half the morning, Liu Yi and others called outside the gate: "Da Nian, are you alright?"

Song Haonian hurriedly picked up his burden and went out: "I just finished eating, brother, have you eaten yet?"

Everyone had already had breakfast, and Lily stuffed an egg pancake with one of them: "Put your belly on the road." Then she said generously: "Brothers, please take care of my family for the New Year."

Liu Yi smiled and said: "Sister and brother! We are all counting on him for his ability in the new year. But don't worry, those who I take out will definitely be brought back, I guarantee you."

Lily smiled and said, "I can trust what Big Brother says."

Watching them go away with the people who came to see them off, and then turned back.

Probably two people stay together for too long, and when one person leaves, the house will be empty.Ever since she came to this world, Lily had never been so anxious, her heart was also empty, and she couldn't get excited about anything.

Heihu sensed that the hostess was in a bad mood, and circled around her. Lily looked at her as a pity, so she knelt down and scratched her chin, but Heihu jumped out to chase chickens and ducks, and laughed at Lily: "This is heartless!" lung!"

The black tiger is just a dog, how can it understand the feelings of parting and the pain of lovesickness?

With Li Caifeng, even though Liu Yi is often not at home, but she has Xing'er anyway, even if it is difficult to be alone, she will not be lonely.She would often bring Xing'er or Xiaofeng to accompany Lily, if they interrupted, Lily would have to cheer up no matter what, so as not to continue to slump.

A few days later, Lamei came to look for Lily, crying. At that time, Lily was putting new vegetables into the kimchi jar, when she heard someone outside the door shouting, "Sister, are you there?"

She hurried out to see that Lamei was standing at the door with her eyes swollen like peaches and her hair disheveled.

Lily was taken aback, and quickly let Lamei in: "What's wrong, this is it!"

Lamei is timid, she has never been to the town alone, what happened today, she walked dozens of miles of mountain roads alone, crying to find her eldest sister?

As soon as Lamei entered the door, she threw herself into Lily's arms and cried loudly. Lily didn't bother to ask questions. She first pulled the girl into the room to comfort her, and when she finally stopped crying, she washed her face, combed her hair, and put some oil on her face. The ointment will not be cracked by the wind.

"Is it better? Tell me, what happened? My mother said you again?"

Lamei choked and said, "Someday I won't say a few words, I'm used to it." But today's matter is not just a matter of being scolded, "Sister, my mother is going to sell me, please help me!"

One sentence made Lily stand up abruptly, "What are you talking about! Explain clearly what's going on!"

You must know that human trading is strictly prohibited in this dynasty. Regardless of the fact that there are many girls in Master Liu's family, they are all signed employment contracts, and all of them are good citizens.

Just like Bai He, who knew that Zhu's daughter was sold for Song Haonian's five pennies, and she was obviously married, so she definitely couldn't say the word "buy and sell".

Lamei cried and said, and finally told the whole story: Zhu sold the eldest daughter, who was born once and cooked twice, so she wanted to follow the same pattern and sell the remaining daughters to others as daughter-in-laws.

Erniu Yingchun can still earn some money for the family, but she is reluctant to sell it, so naturally it is Sanniu's turn.Mrs. Zhu saw that 1 winter plums were not pleasing to the eye, and kept saying that she knew how to waste food at home, and raising pigs was more cost-effective than raising her. It happened that there was a widower in the next village who wanted to marry to fill the house, so people asked about it.

Speaking of Zhu's marriage to the eldest daughter, anyone with a discerning eye knew that she was selling her daughter, so when people asked, they asked the Li family, who was willing to pay two pennies to marry a daughter-in-law, without dowry.

Sons and daughters are debts, the son wants to marry a daughter-in-law, and the daughter needs a dowry.When it comes to Zhu's family, she is willing to bear her son's debt, but 1 people are unwilling to bear her daughter's dowry. It's very easy to meet a family that doesn't want a dowry, so she is naturally very willing.

Qingsong has grown up a bit now, he kept an eye out, and quietly inquired about the situation of the family's widower, and said to Zhu when he came back: "Mother, don't ask the third sister to marry, I heard people say that the head of the family is a woman." It was to beat him to death."

Zhu said: "It must be that there is something wrong with the woman in front that people want to beat her. It is not unusual for a man to beat a woman. If it weren't for the woman's inappropriateness, how could she be beaten to death? San Niu is honest, get married and do well. Be obedient, it will not be the same."

Qingsong was so angry that she was about to speak again, Zhu said: "You have no conscience, you think I am willing to be a bad person? Is it because of you? My old lady worked so hard to save you a fortune, isn't it just to make your life easier in the future? Not considerate to my old lady, but partnering with outsiders to tell my fault!"

Qingsong was speechless immediately, he knew that his mother treated the three sisters badly, and it was all because of him.But after thinking about it, his mother is his own mother, and his elder sister is also his own elder sister. He is a human being, not a beast, and he can't just say a few words to insult his own sisters for the sake of his own future.

Otherwise, he would not be able to sleep soundly.

Qingsong discussed with Carpenter Li that they must not agree to this marriage. Carpenter Li was already very remorseful about what happened to Lily, and for the first time in decades, he showed his power and resisted Zhu's slap and roll, and didn't ask her to agree for a while.

Lamei was panicked to death, Qingsong quietly stole some money from Zhu's room and handed it to Lamei, telling her to run away: "I'm afraid my dad and I won't be able to stand it, if I miss you, mother will call someone to come and take it away." You are tied up. Third sister, you take the money to find the eldest sister, and you must not come back unless you are asked to come back."

Lamei hurried to the town, the more she thought about it, the more hopeless she was, so she couldn't stop crying on the road, even crying when she saw Lily.Fortunately, Lily is her backbone, she said: "Sister, I will obey you."

Lily couldn't sit still anymore, pulled Lamei and locked the door: "Your brother-in-law is going into the mountains, I don't have a man in my family, if something happens, I can't protect you."

The two sisters rushed to Song Dagui's house, saw Dagui's sister-in-law and Song Ermei, when Baihe told the story, both of them sighed repeatedly: "I've heard of that man, and even came to ask my sister, but the second sister refused."

Song Ermei is a widow, and widows usually consider widows first when remarrying. Fortunately, neither Song Dagui nor Dagui's sister-in-law are the kind of people who abuse girls. Let go.

Lily took Dagui's sister-in-law's hand: "Sister-in-law, it's my natal family's business, and it's my fault for bringing you into it. But I really can't help it, my mother is like that, it's Lamei who died under her nose Next, as long as she has money to take, she won't even bat an eye."

"Sister-in-law, I'm not at home during the New Year's Eve. If that family gets my mother's letter and comes to my house to snatch her, I can't protect Lamei. I just ask you to take her in for a few days, and I'll be your cow!"

Lamei threw herself to the ground and knelt down: "Sister-in-law, save me, my life will be yours from now on."

Mrs. Dagui hurriedly pulled the two sisters together, and called Second Sister Song: "Go and call your brother, we will take care of this matter."

As soon as she heard that Mrs. Dagui wanted to take care of her, Lily's heart suddenly relaxed, and her eyes turned black. Fortunately, Mrs. Dagui was holding her, so she didn't make her fall down.

After a while, Song Dagui also came in: "This matter, it's hard to handle!"
