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

Even though they are recruiting, there are no young men hanging around outside. They usually bring a bowl of tea to the main room, so that the man's family can take the opportunity to check his appearance, body shape, health, and any disabilities.

The girl or the boy will retreat into the house shyly and timidly, and will not come out without the man. What they want is to be reserved and self-respecting.

Brother Yu kept walking around the door of the kitchen, which was against the rules and a bit rude.

"His aunt can't be called Brother Yu from now on. My mother said that Brother Yu will be the head of the family after he brings in a new wife. I want to call him Ayu, just like my Ayan. From now on, he will be responsible for the second wife's family. Being the master of the family has been passed down.”

Xu Hong knew that Liu Yu had a bit of a stubborn temper, and was afraid that Liu Yu would be impatient with Lin's nagging and make others look bad. If someone came to help, even if they talked too much, it was still a good intention. Xu Hong was afraid that the situation would become tense and everyone would be embarrassed. They don't look good, and my mother-in-law blames them.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yu smiled and didn't take Lin's words to heart. She just said, "Thank you, Auntie, for reminding me."

As the meals were prepared one by one, Liu Fan and the others took down the black tea bowls and put on the bowls and chopsticks. After some concessions, the people in the hall sat down again.

Liu Fusheng and the two elders of the Liu family sat at the upper seat in the north and east, and the village chief sat together in the east seat.

Liu Maolin and Liu Maogen sat in the west seat, and Liu Maoye and Changsheng sat in the lower seat in the south.

Liu Fan stayed behind to serve tea and food, while Liu Yan was sent back to cook by Xu Hong. There were Tianyu and two children at home, so there was no need for so many people here. Her mother-in-law, Nian, was there to cook the fire.

Liu Yan also showed up at his cousin's wedding, so there was really no need to keep so many people around.

There was no room to sit in the main room, and it was not enough to keep a few men in the kitchen.

"I'll wait until the firecrackers are set off before leaving." Liu Yan chuckled and went to get the firecrackers from Grandpa and Grandma's house.

When the firecrackers are set off, the host will give out candies, and he can also take a few candies to sweeten Luya and Brother Qi's mouth.

Outside the fence gate, a group of children were already waiting to pick up firecrackers and share candies. They were looking into the yard. When they saw Liu Yan coming out with a plate of firecrackers, they jumped up and clapped their hands in excitement.

When the firecrackers went off for the first time, Liu Fan walked towards the main room carrying a large porcelain plate of braised chicken nuggets.

Liu Yu unpacked several packets of malt candies and put them into a small bamboo dustpan. After Liu Yan lit the candies, he began to distribute the candies to the children. The three- and four-year-old children were led by the older children. He stretched out his hand and smiled happily at Liu Yu.

Marriage is about couples. After Liu Yu divided two pieces into each person, the children said a few auspicious words, then dispersed and ran away happily.

"Uncle, can you give me another one?"

Liu Yu looked at the child who was talking, and realized that the one who stayed until the end was actually Goudan.

Liu Shan was sitting on the bench in front of the kitchen. When he heard a child asking for candy, he looked up and saw that it was Gou Dan. He quickly got up and came over. He also heard his mother mention it after Gou Dan caused trouble.

Afraid that the boy would act up and cry on the spot if he couldn't get the candy, and to avoid being unhappy on the big day, Liu Shan grabbed Goudan's arm and took him home.

"Here, this is yours." Liu Yu counted out six pieces of candy and handed it to Goudan's dark hand that he didn't know where.

"Look at your dirty paws, let me hold it for you." Liu Shan took the candy and put it into his purse.

Liu Yu counted out two more portions and handed them to Liu Yan: "This is for Lu Ya and Brother Qi."

Liu Yan took out a purse embroidered with wild geese and put all the candies in it with a smile: "Sure, I'll be back soon."

After saying that, he took a meaningful look at Liu Shan's purse.

His gaze was really obvious. Liu Yu followed Liu Yan's gaze and took off Liu Shan's purse. She saw that it was embroidered with a towering mountain. At the foot of the mountain lay a white lamb, outlined by a few green embroidery threads. out of a small river.

There are two fish swimming in the river.

The embroidery was exquisite and unique. While Liu Yu was looking at it, she lamented that when did her third aunt's embroidery work become so good, she might as well be snatched away by Liu Shan.

"I, I will send Goudan home right now."

"Tch, you're stingy, you can look bad after just one look." Liu Yu said dissatisfiedly to Liu Shan's fleeing figure.

Xu Hong, with the help of Qi Chunhua and He Shengniang, prepared a total of twelve dishes for the engagement banquet that day. Except for the first three meat dishes, the following few dishes were all delicious and delicious, with both meat and vegetables. Hong was more than satisfied with his superb performance this time.

When the banquet was over, the village chief took Liu Yu and Chang Sheng's eight-character Geng Tie and prepared to go back and turn over the almanac to choose an auspicious day for the two to get married. He took the candies wrapped in red packets and left happily.

The two elders of the Liu family are also very happy. The Liu family is not rich in branches and leaves. Now Liu Yu is recruiting relatives, and Changsheng is single and has no burdens. There is no need to worry about Changsheng's extramarital affairs, and they have watched Changsheng grow up. Diligent and capable, there is nothing better than a husband.

After everyone was sent away, everyone's expressions relaxed. At this time, everyone else was eating breakfast, and those of them who were busy in the kitchen were still hungry.

Nian was happy today, and since Lin was here, it was difficult for people to eat the leftovers from the main room, so she didn't let Liu Fan clear the table. Anyway, there was still some meat left, so he cooked all the rest. I also put some white flour pancakes on it and counted it as lunch.

After Mrs. Lin had finished eating and left, the family had just cleared away the dishes, tables and chairs. Mrs. Nian picked out two leftover meat dishes and asked Liu Maolin and Liu Maoye to take them back to their two granddaughter-in-laws.

Liu Yu was wearing new clothes, but she felt it was cumbersome to do anything. She was afraid of getting dirty, so she went back and changed into old clothes for the convenience of work.

"Mom, Ayu and Changsheng are dating in the twelfth lunar month. What are your rules for their wedding?" Xu Hong asked tentatively.

Nian originally planned to ask her two grandsons to help sew, but then she thought that Zhao Tianyu was a month old and it was really not suitable for her to work hard. It would be inappropriate to let Chen Jinmei do it alone, and Liu Yu was one of her own family after all. He is a man, and outsiders know that he will inevitably say some unpleasant things.

"Grandma, auntie, we farmers don't pay much attention to that. It's not cost-effective to wear red clothes for just one day. Whoever wants to wear red will wear today's clothes. It's fine."

As soon as Liu Yu left the room, she heard people talking about their wedding attire again, and her head suddenly got big.

"Nonsense, who wears old clothes on their big day? It's not like we can't afford it. It saves those shallow-eyed people from gossiping behind their backs. Don't worry about it. I'll take care of this matter."

Nian raised his eyebrows and said displeasedly, then continued discussing with his two daughters-in-law what kind of dress to make.

When Changsheng saw Liu Yu, he wanted to talk more, so he hurriedly pulled Liu Yu's sleeves and whispered a few words softly.

"Grandma, let's take care of the dress ourselves. Changsheng knows how to cut and sew clothes, let him try it. I don't know how to embroider and cut, but I can thread the needle and thread without any problem."

"Our Ayu is just like me. We are very knowledgeable about fine things like embroidery. Fortunately, I don't have a daughter, otherwise I would be blinded if she wore colorful clothes and shoes." Qi Chunhua chimed in jokingly.

Hearing this, Liu Yu thought of the exquisitely embroidered, smart and bright purse on Liu Shan's body, and looked at her third aunt Qi Chunhua in surprise.

The third aunt doesn’t know how to embroider, so who embroidered the third brother’s purse!

It can’t be the sister-in-law!

Nian thought for a while and finally said: "Okay, I'll take a look at it after it's done. I can correct anything wrong then."

After discussing the wedding ceremony and cleaning up the main room and kitchen, Xu Hong and Qi Chunhua took their bowls of meat and vegetables and left home.
