In the kitchen, Wang Guifen saw Tao Zi and hurriedly waved the spatula: "Tao Zi, go out and sit for a while. It's too hot here. Get out quickly!"

"I'm not hot, I'm making fire!"

Tao Zi actually sat in front of the stove and made a fire. Shi Xiaolin took one look at it and couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, in the Shi family's yard, Qin Jianjun leaned into Shi Xiaoyong's ear and whispered: "Xiaoyong, your sister... I mean, she's not engaged yet, right?"

Shi Xiao raised his head bravely: "Brother Jianjun, you..."

Qin Jianjun looked around hurriedly, lowered his head, and lowered his voice: "Oh, look, I am one year older than you. You also know the conditions at home. I think Xiaolin is very good, and my family and I have also informed her.

, I’m here to ask you today, do you think it’s suitable? Ask Xiaolin what she means, if you think it’s suitable, I’ll call someone to propose marriage!”

Shi Xiaoyong was so shocked that he dropped the watermelon in his hand. When Shi Xiaowei saw this, he asked: "What are you doing? This thing is precious, so don't throw it on the ground if you can't eat it!"

Shi Xiaoyong hurriedly took it over, his eyes widened: "Brother Jianjun, stop joking!"

The reason why their family all took a fancy to Tao Zi was not only that Tao Zi was a really nice person, but also the most important thing was because the incident with Du Wentao caused quite a stir. Although everyone didn't say it in person, they secretly arranged for Shi Xiaolin!

Many people look down upon Shi Xiaolin. They always feel that she and Du Wentao have not known each other for three or four years, and they are unwilling to let such a daughter-in-law into their family.

Shi Guangyao and Wang Guifen discussed finding a family for Shi Xiaolin that was closer to him, a good person, an honest person who was hard-working and able to live a good life, and the family size should be simple. They did not consider the large number of people, so they chose Tao Zi.

"Who's kidding you?"

Qin Jianjun used to look down on Shi Xiaolin. Although she was good-looking, she was too pretentious and not suitable for a country family like theirs. What's more, Shi Xiaolin had a well-known quarrel with that educated youth. How could he like her?

But after getting along with each other these few times, Shi Xiaolin is not only good-looking, she can work in the hall and in the kitchen, and I heard that she can also make money. In the past few days, her sister is always talking about the delicious biscuits made by Shi Xiaolin, and Qin Jianjun's heart is moved.

, after discussing with my parents at home, I decided to come today to have a chat.

Shi Xiaoyong was so frightened that he left in a hurry. In the past, no one cared about his sister, and their family was very worried. Now someone asked about his sister. When he felt proud, he thought that his sister was getting engaged to Tao Zi, and he needed to find a way to reject Qin Jianjun.

.

Shi Xiaolin couldn't chop vegetables, so Wang Guifen chopped vegetables. Shi Xiaolin was in charge of cooking, and she could fry with one hand. Shi Xiaolin was so tired that she was sweating profusely. Wang Guifen took the spatula and asked her and Tao Zi to get some air.

Here Shi Xiaolin and Tao Zi left the kitchen, and Shi Xiaoyong entered the kitchen behind.

"Mom! What do you think Jianjun came to do with me today?"

Wang Guifen took out the vegetables from the pot and said, "What are you doing? Didn't he come to ask you how to build a brick kiln?"

Shi Xiaoyong walked up to her: "I asked him why he was so kind today. He came to help after breakfast. He helped me get into the car with so many bricks! Mom, he asked me if my little sister was engaged!"

"What?"

Wang Guifen couldn't help but be shocked. Although her daughter was good-looking, because of her reputation...most people in the countryside cared about this. Therefore, after Xiaolin was rescued from the river, there was no one around her to inquire about the news. Now suddenly

Someone came to ask about Xiaolin. She was both surprised and uncomfortable!

"Mom, how do you think I should reject him?"

Qin Jianjun and Shi Xiaoyong have a good relationship. If you refuse, you can't be too harsh, and you can't be reconciled!

"What else can I say? Let's tell the truth! Although Tao Zi's family hasn't come to propose marriage yet, we have settled the matter. We have also made an agreement with Tao Zi's mother. Tao Zi is a very thoughtful child, and he does not want to be wronged.

I know Xiaolin, so give him some time!"

Outside the kitchen, Tao Zi looked at Shi Xiaolin who was going to get the watermelon, clenching her hands.

At dinner, Qin Jianjun was in low spirits. Shi Xiaoyong served him food, and he also picked and picked. Finally, Shi Xiaowei and Shi Guangyao asked him to drink. He drank a few glasses of wine, and then he felt better. He patted Shi Xiaoyong on the shoulder: "

Alas, I should have known earlier. My mother often said that if there are women in a family, there are hundreds of families asking for help. I am such a fool. How long did it take for me to ask? I deserve it! I deserve it!"

The men were all eating in the yard. Shi Xiaolin, Wang Guifen and Qin Cuixiang were in the house. Shi Xiaolin loved cold dishes, especially cold pea powder and rice tofu. The bowl of Mapo tofu also won her heart.

Shi Guangyao didn't know what happened yet, so he comforted Qin Jianjun: "It's okay, this won't work, just find another one! But you have to hurry up, good girls don't wait for others!"

Before Qin Jianjun and the others left, they heard a quarrel in the distance at the old house. He Wenqun's voice, Shi Xiaofang's voice, and a man's voice were also mixed in. Everyone in Shitai Village knew it.

After Qin Jianjun and his brother and sister left, Wang Guifen went to clear the table. Shi Xiaojun led Shi Chengkai and Da Niuniu to Shi Xiaolin's house. Shi Xiaojun's eyes were red, and there were tears on the faces of the two younger ones. When he saw Shi Xiaolin, Shi Xiaojun let go of the two younger ones' hands.

, ran to Shi Xiaolin: "Sister Xiaolin, we haven't eaten yet, we are hungry!"

Ying Qiaozhen opened the door, she was also wiping her tears. When she saw Wang Guifen and the others, she smiled sheepishly: "Second Aunt, I'm sorry for disturbing you!"

Ying Qiaozhen is He Wenqun's daughter-in-law. He Wenqun and Wang Guifen have a bad relationship, so Ying Qiaozhen rarely comes to their home.

"What are you talking about? Xiaojun said you haven't eaten yet? There's still some leftover food at home. If you don't mind, I'll heat it up for you!"

Shi Xiaojun had already run to the kitchen, "Second Aunt, I want to eat that watermelon and rice tofu. I don't choose, I don't mind!"

Wang Guifen and He Wenqun had a bad relationship, but they never involved their children. She was always very good to her children, otherwise, Shi Xiaojun would not dare to talk to her like this.

"Okay, then you guys sit down and I'll make you some rice tofu!"

Rice tofu is tofu made from rice. Beat the rice into pulp, add a little lime, and solidify to become rice tofu. This kind of tofu is suitable for cold salad and soup, but it is easy to rot.

Eating rice tofu in the summer, cool and topped with a spoonful of chili oil, is simply the best dish in summer!

After Ying Qiaozhen sat down, she took the initiative to talk to Shi Guangyao about the big house, "Ji Yongxin just told Xiaofang that he had a wife and a child in Dashi Village. Later, because Du Wentao went to college,

, he thought about it, tried every means to return to the city, left his wife and children, and went to the provincial capital! Xiaofang had never suffered such grievances, so she quarreled with him! "

Shi Guangyao frowned: "Xiaofang wants to marry him without understanding clearly? It's too hasty!"

Ying Qiaozhen echoed: "Who says it's not the case! She relies on her high academic qualifications and won't listen to anyone in the family. She gets married as soon as she is told, and no one in the family dares to interfere!"
