Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 48

"Really, what does it have to do with you? Children, don't listen to such nonsense. In the future, don't just ask people about things like this." Yufenniang thinks that little girl Du Yu knows too much. , just say that the little girl can't read, otherwise, if she knows a lot, she won't be able to settle down.

"Then this is true! This is too strange, why can't I be called a mother, isn't she born?" Yufen was confused.

Yufenniang scolded: "What do you think about every day, what does it have to do with you? Go, go, pick up the needle and thread for me quickly." Feeling that her daughter is idle, she thinks about other things.Really, it's none of her business.I just went to Qin's house, which made me feel strange.

Yufen pouted, she really hates sewing!

On August [-]th, married girls also have to return to their natal homes. Of course, if you already have a daughter-in-law, you don’t have to. The next generation of children and grandchildren will go their own way.

It's rare that the Du family collected all the grain in the field, so they didn't worry about not having enough food.

Some families in the village did not prepare food before, and then borrowed it. Now that it is the harvest season, in addition to paying back the food, they have to pay rent.Days can't go on.

It wasn't until Erya ran over to tell Du Yu that Du Yu didn't know that He Hua's grandma had sold the lotus to Ren Yazi.

Er Ya said angrily: "I think that old hag won't stop until she sells out all her granddaughters!"

This old lady is really hateful. She sold her granddaughters one by one, and now she even sold the lotus flower. One of the two older sisters of the lotus flower was sold to someone else as a child bride-in-law, and the other was at the beginning of the year. She sold it, and at the end of the year, she sold it again, leaving her youngest granddaughter, who probably won't be able to escape the fate of being sold.

That is to say, her little grandson will not be sold, because it will be passed on to their family.

Girls at this time are so worthless?

Thinking that Hehua used to go digging wild vegetables with Du Yu, and Hehua also revealed that she wanted to be a maid. Du Yu was extremely glad that she was born in Du's family.

Just imagine, if my grandma was that lotus grandma, would she be able to resist?With such a small body, he couldn't resist, not to mention being beaten up, but in the end, he would still be sold out, and he had no human rights at all.

Maybe the lotus is sold, and it is better than living here. Here, the lotus is beaten every day, and there is not enough to eat, and the clothes are not warm. Maybe, outside, she can at least have enough to eat, because People who can afford it will at least not be unable to eat enough.

I can only think of it this way, Du Yu has no ability to rescue He Hua herself, she has no money at all, and she finally made a fortune, all of which is in grandma's pocket, if she dares to tell Grandma He Hua, you You can't sell the lotus, I guess people won't even glance at you.

What's more, there are still conflicts between my family and Grandma Hehua.She can only wish from the bottom of her heart that Lotus will have a better life outside than at home.

My aunt and uncle came with their children. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, my uncle's work is also done by hand, and the host's house is also celebrating the festival.

The second aunt also rushed over, bringing a few catties of mooncakes with her.

Du Yu and the others saw their two aunts and uncles, and they were about to rush to the Hujiapeng. The Qi family had already spoken, and this year, both daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law would go to their natal homes to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The eldest daughter-in-law can't always be left behind, she also has a natal family, not to mention that her natal family treats their Du family well.

As for the third daughter-in-law, it was also because it was still the first year, and the third child was injured again, and she also let his father-in-law and mother-in-law take a look.

Qi's heart is still a little flustered. The land tax for the second half of this year has not been paid, and their food is now surplus. Seeing that the fourth child is still a bachelor, she wants to propose a wife to the fourth child.

After doing the math, her family is still relatively rich, and everyone is having a hard time this year. If they say goodbye at this time, the conditions of the other party will be lowered, so she might be able to pay back what she has.

This doesn't mean that she will find a decent one for her fourth son, of course she must find a good one.Mrs. Qi has a bit of a mentality of picking things up.

Some people have good daughters, but the family conditions are not very good. In order to save a ration, the daughter will be betrothed. Doesn’t she save a lot?

The main thing is to be able to work, not to be too hot-tempered, not to be like Liu's, and besides, she is not the eldest daughter-in-law, so why would she want such a powerful one?
Therefore, the Qi family has explained to the two daughters-in-law, asking them to inquire when they return to their natal homes, and if there are qualified ones, they can talk about them.

Dulan was a bit pessimistic, "The family's conditions are poor, and if something happens in the future, the fourth brother will have to go to it, which is not very good."

Qi said: "There are some people in the world who don't take daughters seriously and just want to gain favor from them, but there are also many who are normal. Our family's conditions are not bad. Letting his daughters marry here is better than marrying them." I believe that many people are happy to live well in her natal family. As for those who want to have a good time, I naturally disagree, don’t you have to inquire about it?”

Marrying a daughter-in-law is not only about marrying this girl, her family has a lot of troubles, it is a family that causes trouble, and there are brothers and sisters with bad conduct, the Qi family will not be happy either.

Du Mei said: "Mother, if you put it this way, I have someone to choose. Isn't there a girl in our Tie Niu's second aunt? She is about the same age as Youde, but her family is a little poorer. This year's harvest is not good, I think If you want to marry the girl, you will lose one person's rations, but this year everyone is the same, it's hard, and no one has the time to talk about kissing."

Mrs. Qi nodded after listening, and said, "This sounds good, but how is that girl's character? Don't be a troublemaker." They can't afford such a person.

It's up to the Qi family to raise one more person, but she won't be happy if she is really a troublemaker.

If it weren't for the concerted efforts of the whole family this year, we would not be able to overcome this difficulty.

Du Mei said: "He's not bad, but he looks average. A bit dark."

"It doesn't matter what your appearance is, as long as you don't have a crooked nose and squinting eyes, it's easy to say." However, the Qi family still wants to find a better one for his son, with a handsome face, and this must be something.

Anyway, this matter is not urgent. If you ask more, it will always be good.

Du Youzhong went to his mother-in-law's house with his wife and children, carrying two catties of moon cakes and two catties of brown sugar in his hand. When he arrived at Hu's house, Hu's family had killed a big rooster early in the morning, and now it was stewing.

This rooster has been grown for several years. The meat is not easy to stew, but when it is stewed, it tastes very fragrant. It is definitely free-range chicken!

Uncle Hu’s family also doesn’t have much farming. There are fewer animals in the village this year. Uncle Hu still has business in the town, especially those rich people who like to raise horses. Naturally, some horses are sick. Uncle's reputation is good, so many people ask him to see a doctor.

Once optimistic, money is not a problem.So don't underestimate the job of a veterinarian, it is still very capable of supporting the family.

In this year of severe drought, they were not affected. Du Yu sometimes felt that the ancestral craftsmanship of his grandfather's family was really useful, and it also benefited his own family.

If it wasn't for the good condition of my uncle's house, who would send some things from time to time, I guess grandma's attitude would not be so good.

Not to mention that grandma is a follower of power, isn't that the case for everyone in the world?

One can send things to your house from time to time, and the other one often comes to your house to enjoy the autumn breeze, and wants to take everything she sees. Everyone knows who to like.

But now, the eldest cousin Hu Xin wants to study, and he has good knowledge. It is impossible for him to study veterinary medicine. Is this skill going to be lost?It's a pity.

It was a pity for the eldest cousin, who already smiled gently. To be honest, Du Yu's eldest cousin, at first glance, looks like a scholar, with a gentle manner.Thinking about how my grandpa's family has not had a scholar for several generations, why did my uncle let my cousin read books when it came to my cousin's generation?
Could it be the influence of their family?But the influence of their family is not very good. After all, her grandfather is a person who has studied for decades and can't do anything. Now his father has returned to farming.Although now there is a stance to pick up again, it is a pity that there is a female elder who suppresses them, Du Yu finds it difficult.

But when they came back this time, there was also a big happy event. It turned out that Du Yu's aunt, Ji Shi, was pregnant again.

Du Yu's grandmother couldn't wait to tell her daughter the good news. It's because their family has been single-passed for several generations. Hu Xin is the only one in this younger generation. Ji's can have news again. It is very likely to break the trend of the single pass of these generations.

Cousin Hu Ling is already good at sewing, and she promised Du Yu that she will make some beautiful purses for her then.

This time, Hu Xin not only played with Dalang and Erlang, but also came over and asked about Du Yu's knowledge. This posture shows that he knows that he has learned to read and wants to test himself.

"Brother, today is the holiday, why do you still have to take the exam? Cousin Yu'er is not a person who needs to take the imperial examination. She can read and write very well." Hu Ling quit. She was talking well with her cousin. It's too bad that my brother came to disrupt the situation.

Hu Xin said: "Usually you are asked to read a few words, but you keep hiding. What's wrong with reading?"

"I get a headache when I see words, let alone write. Then I want you to hold a needle and thread, can you handle it?" Hu Ling found a metaphor, and Du Yu and Da Lang Erlang laughed.

Thinking about the way my big cousin is holding a needle and thread, I really can't think about it, the more I think about it, the more I laugh.Hu Xin has a headache, why is his girl getting less and less cute?

And the adults feel better when they hear the children's laughter.

Over there, Du Youzhong and his brother-in-law were discussing things. Du Youzhong didn't know who to talk to about many things at home, but he could talk to his brother-in-law properly.

"So, you plan to take the exam next spring?" Uncle Hu asked Du Youzhong.

Du Youzhong nodded, "I don't have anything to do now, and I am idle at home. Besides, I am also worried when I see this year's land tax. There may not be such a good government order in the future. If I can be admitted to the scholar , I won’t have to pay land tax in the future, and I don’t have to worry about the disaster year.”
