Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Zhou Liwei: "...Sister-in-law, are so many people going to the capital?"

Expensive, right?

Man Bao didn't care, "What's the matter? Our family has a shop over there, and we earn a lot of money. The capital is huge, and there are more books there than in the county. Every time we go to the bookstore, there are new ones. Books, I heard that the masters in the school are also very good, renting a house to live in, food and clothing is not a big deal, you can earn money if you practice your calligraphy well and copy some books, after you learn the skills, how much money will you not earn in the future?"

This is also the most important reason why Manbao wants to take Santou to study.

Bookstores in the county town may not necessarily buy two new books every other month, and sometimes new books will appear only half a year ago.

But the bookstores in the capital are different. Manbao and the others go by every now and then, asking if there are any new books. In the bookstore, there are not only collected anthologies that have not been seen before, but also miscellaneous books that have been engraved.

Not to mention some manuscripts and papers circulated by everyone in private, Bai Shan just made a paper written by Mr. Guo Zixue out of curiosity and sold it to bookstores, earning a lot of money.

Reading, reading, books are the most important, and so is the husband.

Man Bao waved to his nephews and nieces and said, "Go, earn money to spend it, and you will also earn money later."

Sitou became happy when he heard the words, he was not anxious about leaving home, after all, there are so many people in the family in the capital.

In the courtyard next to them, the adults were talking about Man Bao's marriage.

Mrs. Qian and Mrs. Qian went to the Bai family this afternoon, and mentioned Zhou Yin's relationship with the Xia family. Mrs. Liu had promised to let a child take Man Bao's mother's surname in the future.

Qian Shi said: "Mrs. Liu is generous, we don't hold back, this marriage is a deal, and our two families will formally make it after Da Ya returns home."

Xiaoqian knew about it early on, but it was the first time for the others to hear about it, and they were still in a daze for a while.

Zhou Zhoulang was the most reluctant to give up, and said coyly: "Mother, Man Bao is still young, isn't it too early to make an appointment?"

Qian glanced at him and said: "The two children are growing up, and the second young master Bai is still in the middle. It will be easier for Man Bao to come and go, so what?"

Zhou Zhoulang was sleepy and silent.

But he felt that his sister was still young.

When Manbao was a child, Xiaoqian was the one who took her the most, followed by Zhou Zhoulang.

It may be because Zhou Zhoulang is naughty. Although Man Bao always disliked him for gambling and causing trouble for the family when he was a child, the two brothers and sisters are very close.

But obviously Man Bao's marriage is not something he can interfere with, Qian agreed, and old Zhou Tou did not object, even Little Qian thought it was good, so the matter was settled like this.

After talking about the biggest thing, Mrs. Qian asked about Zhou Zhoulang's purchase of tea. Mrs. Qian felt that they couldn't get in the way of this topic, so she went to find Man Bao and the others.

The members of the Feng family are still in a daze, so Man Bao's marriage was settled so easily?

In the blink of an eye, the children have grown up.

But if you think about it carefully, the Bai family is indeed the most suitable for Man Bao. Regardless of knowing the basics, the two grew up as childhood sweethearts.

When the family divided into two yards and stood guard together, Zhou Dalang dragged out the firecrackers and lit the fire himself. When the firecrackers were over, everyone went back to their respective houses to sleep.

The whole village slept in late the next day, and the old Zhou family was no exception.

Man Bao stretched out his hand from under the quilt to support himself, and got up after lying on the bed.

She opened the door and went out to have a look, and found that the yard was quiet, and she was the first one to get up in the small yard here.

She took her wooden basin to the courtyard to fetch water, only to find that the stove was also cold, and no one seemed to be getting up.

Man Bao scratched her head, looked up to the east where the sun was rising, not at ease, she also checked the time carefully, it was indeed almost morning.

Why does sister-in-law get up so late?

But thinking about it, the family has been busy since she was twenty-eight, and the eldest girl got married at twenty-nine, and she was busy all day yesterday because of the New Year and the aftermath. It is estimated that the adults in the family are too busy.

Man Bao had no choice but to put down the wooden basin, fetch water by himself, enter the kitchen and light the fire to boil water.

There was no more hay in the kitchen to start the fire, so she turned around and went to look for hay in the woodshed, when she suddenly heard movement at the door.

Man Bao turned his head to look, but he didn't hear the knock on the door, so he was a little curious.

As she walked over, she asked Keke, "Did you hear any movement at the gate?"

Keke didn't answer her, Man Bao had already walked to the gate, unbolted the latch, and opened the gate...

Bai Shan raised his hand, with an embarrassed smile on his face, as if he was about to knock on the door, but he obviously didn't expect that it would be Man Bao who opened the door, so he was also taken aback for a moment.

Man Bao stood inside the door and asked with a smile, "Why are you here so early?"

Bai Shan put down his hands, stood outside the door with a shy smile and said, "I got up early, and I wanted to come over to wish you an early year, so I came here."

Man Bao exclaimed, "You woke up so early, I just got up, and I haven't washed yet."

Bai Shan stared at her face, and said after a while, "I didn't sleep much last night."

Man Bao blinked.

Bai Shan knew at a glance that she didn't know, so he pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Grandma told me last night that our two families have already agreed on a marriage. Grandma wants to invite Mr., do you think it's okay?"

Man Bao blushed, stood inside the door, nodded his toes, nodded slightly and said, "Of course, you, your grandmother and mother agreed?"

Bai Shan nodded and said, "I agree."

If Zhou Yin and his wife hadn't met Bai Qi back then, or hadn't helped each other, they might be full of children now, and the Xia family would naturally not be in danger of being cut off.

So when Mrs. Qian mentioned it, Mrs. Liu agreed. The negotiation process between the two parties was very friendly, and both parties agreed. Last night, Mrs. Liu told Bai Shan.

Bai Shan was so happy that he didn't sleep for half the night. He woke up in the morning, and after washing up, he read two texts in the yard. He couldn't help but ran over.

Who knew that the village, which was always lively in the past, was so quiet today, there was not a single person in the early morning.

As long as there are people at home and they are awake, the gates in the village are rarely closed, and as a result, few houses are open along the way.

Old Zhou's house didn't open the door either.

He knew that his family hadn't woken up. He lingered outside the door for a quarter of an hour. Two villagers who woke up early passed by. He couldn't help but lay down on the door to listen. He seemed to hear a little movement. That's why I wanted to knock on the door.

As a result, he raised his hand and the door opened.

At this time, Bai Shan, who shared the good news with Man Bao, couldn't help but grin at her, and Man Bao also laughed at him.

One of them was inside the door and the other was outside, and they just stared blankly at each other for a long time.

Old Zhoutou felt light because of his age, so when he came out and saw it, he couldn't help coughing twice.

Bai Shan came back to his senses in an instant, and hurriedly saluted Man Bao and Lao Zhou, "Good morning, Uncle."

Old Zhou Tou let out a "hmm", looked up at the little sun in the east, and asked, "Did you come so early?"

Bai Shan's face was flushed, and his ears felt hot. He made an excuse and said, "I'm here to borrow a book from Man Bao."

Old Zhou hummed twice in his heart, "Small, don't you know if you look at him, who hasn't come here when he was young?"

See you tomorrow
