Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

"Almost all were sold before. Today's ones are the last ones left. There are only a few sets left. I'll keep them for my own posts!"

Liu Yu pointed at the few sets of money left on the small bamboo basket and said casually.

"That's not possible. You have to spend money to buy the money so that the family can make money in the coming year!"

This is the first time Liu Yu has heard of this saying. It is not difficult. Both his uncle and third uncle's houses sell this. If it is not sold out, he can just go to the two houses to buy it.

If you have any leftovers, sell them to your uncle at a cheaper price!

It was almost noon, but the number of people in the Cao Market had not decreased much. Liu Yu and the others had sold out all their things, and they didn't buy much in the Cao Market.

When he returned, Liu Yu asked a few people to wait at the street corner of the town. He picked up his backpack and went to the grain and oil store to buy flour, and then went to the grocery store to buy a few bags of brown sugar.

Business is going well today, and everyone is in a good mood. Xiaoxue is full of cakes, and his little face is always filled with smiles.

The winter sun was warm and scorching on people's bodies. As they walked across the bluestone bridge at the entrance of the village, they saw Mrs. Ren saying something excitedly and Lian Shengniang looking ashamed and embarrassed.

"How can the Xie family not be honest in their work? In just a few days, they have already found a bride..."

The women and husbands on the side heard this and hurriedly tried to persuade each other. The general idea was that since the engagement had been broken off, they should just throw their hands away and the wedding would have nothing to do with it.

The good men in this world are not limited to his Xie family. Choosing a good husband for Brother Xian is better than anything else, and the Xie family will regret it when the time comes.

These words can be considered as persuasion to Mrs. Ren's heart. After breaking off the engagement from the Xie family, she was eager for Brother Xian to find a better marriage, preferably one with the man's talent, family background, betrothal gift, and everything else. Only at home can the depression in her heart be relieved.

The upright and burly Hao Erlang could not be found after searching carefully, and it was not impossible that he had a rich family. It was just that the Xie family's initial betrothal gift was eighty taels of silver, which was extremely high in the Tianshe family.

It is very difficult to find someone who is willing to pay a higher betrothal gift than eight taels of silver!

Lian Sheng's mother glanced at the persuading woman with resentment, and almost blurted out that it's up to you to find such a good husband for her young brother.

When the words reached her lips, she swallowed them alive. She put on a smile and explained to Mrs. Ren: "It's really that my cousin is uneasy. She and my cousin only had this boy when he was thirty years old. Someone else might have a grandson at this moment." Even though we can say they are married, she is still looking for a daughter-in-law."

"It's very difficult to be seriously ill! The fortune teller said it's a blessing and maybe I'll be fine. Brother Xian, please be considerate of the physical examination!"

Mrs. Ren saw that Lian Shengniang could not suppress the irritation between her eyes, she spoke softly and her posture was extremely low. Moreover, her original intention was not to entangle Xie Donghai's wedding banquet in two days.

It was just a confession to the villagers that the Xie family felt sorry for themselves first, and that the young brother of his family was innocently affected. Now everyone in the village knows that Xie Jialang is getting married, and his young brother can also choose a new husband.

Now that the goal has been achieved, Mrs. Ren is not willing to break up with Lian Shengniang. She still has to rely on her to find a good family for Brother Xian!

Mrs. Ren then snorted coldly: "That's all, the two children on the left and right are just engaged, they have never met each other. They just wronged my young brother and acted like a good brother, and got the reputation of breaking off the engagement in vain!"

Everyone is busy and another piece of advice comes.

After a few breaths, Liu Yu and others crossed the bluestone bridge and walked closer. Everyone saw Liu Meixiang and Xiaoxue and exchanged greetings with each other.

After saying goodbye to the villagers and on her way home, Liu Meixiang didn't know the cause and effect. She only heard a few words and was inevitably a little curious, so she asked more about the meaning of Ren's words at the entrance of the village.

Everyone in the village knew about this, so Liu Yu concealed what she shouldn't have said, and told him everything she said on the surface.

When she got home, Liu Meixiang took out her money bag from the bottom of her backpack. There were one hundred and thirty cakes. Some people bought them for two cents each, and for five cents and three.

The total counted was two hundred and twenty copper coins.

After deducting the cost of flour and brown sugar, I made about 180 yuan. The black sesame seeds are grown at home and are not included in the cost.

No wonder people rush to set up stalls during the Chinese New Year to earn a little money. Brown sugar shortbread and sesame shortbread are faster to make than chestnut shortbread, but making money is much easier than chestnut shortbread.

The profit is also greater, after all, the chestnut cakes were only sold for a penny each.

After returning the fifty-six cents that Liu Yu had just advanced to buy flour and brown sugar, Liu Meixiang tied up the money bag and gave it to Nian for safekeeping.

After lunch, Xu Hong and Qi Chunhua brought their children over again with sewing baskets to do work.

When the ladies were talking, they would talk about their children's marriage.

Nian sewed cotton trousers for Xiaoxue, frowned, and looked at Qi Chunhua: "I don't know what you are choosing. After this year, Shanzi is one year older, and he is increasingly unable to match the right brother and girl!"

Qi Chunhua felt bitter when her mother-in-law accused her of being picky.

With a conscience of heaven and earth, she has been insisting for the past two or three years that as long as she can have a baby, has arms and legs, and runs home when it rains, as long as the second son nods, she is willing to hire her.

But Xu Hong knew that the root cause of this matter was not Qi Chunhua, so she couldn't help but say a few words for her sister-in-law: "This matter needs Shanzi's nod, and Afan's mother can't make the decision."

"You just have to give Shan Zi a nod, marry him home, get on the kang, give birth to a baby next year, and everything will be settled."

Since ancient times, the name of parents and the words of matchmakers have always been manipulated by children. Nian felt that the third daughter-in-law could not handle anything.

Xu Hong glanced at Liu Yu, who was supporting Chang Sheng to exercise her legs, and felt that the old lady really had double standards.

Liu Yu also delayed getting married until she was nineteen. At that time, someone in the village occasionally came to the old lady with gossip and told her not to choose, just find someone who was similar and could marry!

The old lady glared with her hands on her hips and scolded her eighteen generations of ancestors. Why didn't she follow her parents' orders and matchmaker's advice at that time? She still wanted to find a good family and was unwilling to wrong her own children. .

Qi Chunhua's worries were not as fast as those of her sister-in-law Xu Hong's thoughts.

She didn't take Nian's verbal disdain seriously. She hesitated for a long time, and then saw that the children were all surrounding the bamboo rat, and there was no one else inside or outside the yard.

Then he leaned forward and lowered his voice and said: "Shanzi has found someone, but, I'm just scared... ah...!"

!!!

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked. They looked at each other and quickly looked at Qi Chunhua, asking who it was!

"It's He Dayong's handsome brother!"

Qi Chunhua bit off the thread that was sewn to the end and said, "Tell me, no matter what kind of temper that girl is, I dare to marry her!"

"If Brother Xian and Shanzi have any trouble in the future, this bitch will not come to my house and smash my pot!"

Don’t tell me, it’s really possible!

Looking at the expressions of everyone, Qi Chunhua felt even more bitter in her heart!
