The Landlord And His Wife

Here, Liu Gao invited a matchmaker to talk about the marriage proposal, and gave money to run errands. When the matchmaker left, Liu Gao called He, told her, and explained After a while, Liu Changshi earned money, and he had already said that he would buy two acres of farmland with ten coins.

He has already heard what her mother said, but her mother told her not to ask her to ask Liu Changgeng, because her in-laws hadn't spoken yet. When it spread to Liu Gao's side, what happened? ! Now that he heard that Liu Gao's family was going to beg for marriage, he came back and told Liu Changgeng that Liu Changgeng didn't know at all, so he was quite surprised. He naturally turned to his younger brother, and immediately said it was very suitable! Feldspar now has fifty coins in his hand! Everyone in the village said that he went to Ningxia to make a lot of money, so aren't there many girls who want to marry him? !

He glanced at him, but went to cook without saying anything.

It was only at this time that Liu Xuer knew that the fourth uncle was finally going to beg for marriage, and she could be regarded as letting go of a worrying thing in her heart, because now, another thing made her more anxious.

Willow and Willow came back and brought back a dozen dangling money, of course it is very good, but now Liu Xuer is anxious that something can’t be made, and now it is not like when it opened last year, one or two There is no business in the month, and now there will be business as long as the door is opened, but the goods cannot be supplied, so I am really anxious!

The handicrafts I made in my spare time a few years ago were already sold during the Chinese New Year. Only made some hand coverings, wipes foreheads, and purses that are sold during the New Year.

That night, when the whole family was having dinner, Liu Xuer said this to everyone seriously, Liu Lin said: "I wanted to say it for a long time, the counter is empty, it is not the way! Monthly rent can be paid."

Willow said: "By the way, sister, I want to tell you, this year doesn't have to be like last year, it must be done in season, let's decide a few things to sell at our counter, Start making all of them, and keep them all in stock for a year, so that you don’t have to rush in front of you.”

Liu Xuer frowned and said: "I also thought about it, those sashes and so on are not necessarily sold in August, just say that August sells well, but usually not just one. It's not for sale anymore! But it's too busy now! There are several months of the year when there is no supply."

Liu Changgeng slapped his leg and said, "You all know that the silk thread is called by your aunt to do it, so who will you call the troublesome thing to do!"

Liu Xuer said: "I also thought about this. The troublesome embroidery purse, weaving sashes, the relatives did not do well, silk thread and so on, also because of simplicity." After thinking about it, it is right. Mrs He said, "Mother, why don't you ask my aunt if she can be busy? If you are busy, leave the embroidery of the handkerchief to her? She has an embroidery stand anyway, so she should be able to do it."

He is of course willing, nodding: "Of course...it should be no problem, your aunt did this originally, it should be faster."

Liu Xuer nodded and asked Liu Changgeng, "Dad, what do you think?"

Liu Changgeng nodded: "Of course it's good. I asked your brothers to learn to make those little pendants. If I'm busy, they can make a few when they have time."

Willow and Willow all nodded.

Liu Xuer said to Mrs He: "Mother, then you specialize in making purses, wiping your foreheads, and covering your hands with your hands. If you go back to your mother's house, ask my two aunts, if they are not with me. Auntie learns to embroider, and if you learn it, we will give them the purse to make in the future... Of course, we will wait. I specialize in making sachets, as well as weaving sashes."

He nodded: "Okay!"

Second, it was her family's side, and her parents definitely needed to give them an opinion. The fourth child was her husband's younger brother. They had lived together for almost ten years, so they naturally understood.

So the next day, after cleaning up, Liu Changgeng went to pick up Liu Changshi's donkey cart and drove her back to her mother's house.

This time, Liu Xuer didn't follow. I disagree. It doesn't matter what her little baby said. Besides, since she has already asked for marriage, if the aunt is willing, it is the grandmother and the grandfather who do not agree. Agree, then the fourth uncle should work hard! What can her little baby do to help?

So I was busy at home, Willow Liulin started to make small pendants, and the two of them have already made some.

He and Liu Changgeng came to Qianzhuang Village. Sure enough, Liu Xuer's grandmother and grandfather were waiting for her. After entering the door, He Wenqing smiled and called her brother-in-law to speak in his room , Here He was dragged into the house by grandma and grandma.

"You said they were all relatives, what should I do? What did the old couple in your family think?" Grandpa said first.

Grandma knew, because a few years ago, someone in the village asked her about He Ruyu's marriage, but no one asked before, but suddenly someone asked, grandma is of course very happy, overjoyed I came back and talked to He Ruyu, telling her not to worry. Who knew that He Ruyu said it at the time, no matter who the villagers said, she was unwilling.

The grandmother naturally cross-examined carefully, He Ruyu just said it, why do the villagers dare to ask about themselves again? Grandma is strange, how do I know?

He Ruyu said that it was because the fourth sister of Taohua Village's sister-in-law went to beat Mao San... Do you think Mao San has been honest during this time? Haven't seen anyone again?

At that time, my grandmother was not very sure. After all, no one said anything about it, she could only keep it in her heart, blame Liu Changshi and He Yuru. There was no private exchange, it was just that Liu Lao Si went to beat Mao San...

Because of this, my grandmother didn't have a good New Year's Day. I never thought that just after the New Year, the Liu family came to the central media to ask for marriage. Grandma naturally looked at the situation with a cold eye.

He said: "My family went to Ningxia four years ago. At that time, I said that it was to marry a daughter-in-law, and I was unwilling to spend my parents' money... This has never happened before. Who knows, my mother-in-law actually... took a fancy to us like jade?"

The grandfather hadn't spoken yet, and the grandmother said, "It may not be your mother-in-law, right? These are all relatives, and it's not that they haven't met... What does your fourth child think, who knows?"

He nodded: "It's also possible that the fourth child looked at it first and told her mother-in-law that she agreed." She looked at her grandfather and asked, "Father, mother, what do you think? ?"

Grandpa smacked the dry flue: "I don't know, I'm still thinking about it... They're all relatives, it's not easy to handle."

He said: "Actually, Liu Changshi is not bad..."

The grandmother snorted: "You are from the Lao Liu family now, of course you are speaking to the Lao Liu family! It's not that your fourth child is not good, it's not that easy!"

He smiled and said: "Mother, you really wronged me about this matter. After I found out, I didn't say a word to the old Liu family! Chang Geng didn't ask me to call I'd say good things...he probably doesn't think it's difficult."

Grandma glared, He smiled, grandfather said: "The fourth went to Ningxia specifically to earn money and marry a wife? It's ambitious."

He said: "Last year, I wanted to leave, but my family disagreed. It was too dangerous because it was close to the Mongols. He just had to go... Now that I think about it, I was probably worried about him. The family is not as good as Ruyu, and Ruyu is wronged? In addition...between relatives, Ruyu knows everything about it."

The grandmother said: "That is! I Ruyu is the pillar of my family now! He said that he married?"

Before Mr. He spoke, his grandfather said, "OK, let's take a break! No one asked for a kiss last year, so you wish you could give it away for nothing! Now someone is asking for a kiss, Your tail is up again! A woman's opinion!"

Grandma turned her head and gave him a blank look, but she really didn't say much.

Grandpa continued to ask Mr. He: "How is the fourth person in your family? What's the situation, what's your family background? Tell me." He smiled: "Our family is indeed different from before. , don't feel wronged when I say this, Ruyu really can't give people casually."

He smiled, her dowry at that time, the dowry and other things only cost five dangling money, and now it must be no better than He Ruyu, but when she came to Liu Changgeng and his wife, they were very affectionate, Second, being at her in-law's house is considered comfortable, and her life at home is much better than before. At the same time, I also know that today is different from the past, I can't compare it ten years ago, I nodded with a smile: "Dad, what are you worried about, when I got married, it was ten years ago, and I was so shallow. Compared with Ruyu? Don't worry, I won't be overly concerned."

Laughed and said, and then began to say Liu Changshi: "Changshi is a good person, among the brothers, I think he is the best, he has a lot of things, and he is quite responsible... just Taking it to Ningxia, I think it is very good. Several brothers in the family are married with the money from their parents, so he can have the ambition to earn money by himself, which is very good. As for the family background, it is the same as our Chang Geng. , also divided an acre and a half of the land, but this time I went to Ningxia and earned fifty dollars."

Grandpa and Grandma were surprised! Quite a lot!

He lowered his voice again: "Dad and mother, please don't... don't let Chang Geng know, I'll tell you this..."

The old man nodded hurriedly: "I know! We don't want to be dowry, and we don't need fifty hangings!"

He's eyes widened: "What... Dad..."

The old man smiled: "Just kidding! What are you nervous about?"

Can Mr. He not be nervous! Fifty times when he opened his mouth, this is a big opening from a lion, and he clearly disagrees, scaring people back! How will relatives meet after this?

Grandma couldn't help but asked, "Even if there are fifty hangings, the wedding ceremony will always cost a lot, so he and Ruyu will live on that half-acre of farmland in the future? too little..."

He said: "The fifty hangings should not be spent, right? The fourth has already said that he will use ten hangings to buy land, about two acres. I don't know if you are optimistic or not, buy Who is it? Anyway, my mother-in-law explained this to me." She thought about it again and said, "By the way, my family Xu'er is still thinking about the handkerchief work in that shop, and I will leave it to Ruyu in the future. Come here and ask Ruyu embroidered handkerchiefs to be sold in the shop, and we will all free up our hands to do other things."

He hurriedly smiled and said: "It's not our shop, it's just a counter, but it does make money, Xu'er and I are too busy..." said.

Grandma nodded suddenly, and said with a smile without asking He Ruyu: "Okay! That's good! Ruyu must be busy!"
