Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

Li Qingshi's wedding day was approaching, and it was a matter of life for his elder brother, so Li Qinggui asked for leave and came back to help, and Aunt Li's daughter who was a side house for a wealthy family also hired someone to come back to help.

Although Aunt Li's daughter, Li Jiaoniang, never came back, she would send someone to send some clothes and money back every year and festival.For Li Qingshi's big wedding, she even prepared a generous gift, and even asked someone to make a set of beds, tables and chairs as a gift.

The day before the wedding, the Chen family sent bedding and curtains, and the dowry was laid out in the Li family.Aunt Li was beaming all day long, and others couldn't help but say a few good things when they saw her.

Zhang He had promised to help Li Qingshi as a companion before, so she, Li Qingshi and Li Qinggui listened to Wang Po's rules of welcoming relatives.In addition to their companions, the wedding team also had the wedding team sent by Wang Po. Li Qingshi's wedding clothes and the wedding sedan chair were all rented, but the car was borrowed from Zhang He's family.

On the wedding day, Li Qingshi paid homage to his ancestors, and when the auspicious time came, he went out with the wedding party.Zhang He, Li Qingshi and others drove the car to help the Li family deliver lamps and candles, incense balls, makeup boxes, clothes boxes, cool umbrellas, etc. to the Chen family.

Along the way, the musicians played festive music, making the lively children follow behind to join in the fun.

The Chen family was in Shangwei Village, more than ten miles away, and arrived in an hour.The Chen family had already prepared bouillon to entertain everyone, and also distributed some "profit money". Although it was not much, it was a lottery, and everyone accepted it happily.

Afterwards, the musicians made fun to make up, and Chen started to put on makeup in the room. When the time came, Li Qingshi took him out and put him in the sedan chair.At this time, Li Qingshi had to give the bearer some money and wine, so the bearer was willing to pick up the sedan chair.

Before the welcoming team entered Li's house, Zhang He and others went back to the door to stop them. Although Zhang He didn't want to do this, this was the rule of "blocking the door".

The crowd asked Li Qingshi for money, and Li Qingshi stuffed five cents into Zhang He who was standing in the middle, Zhang He stepped aside consciously, and everyone looked at Zhang He: "Zhang Erlang, you are too easy to talk to, aren't you?!"

"What do you mean?" Zhang He asked.

"Five cents will be enough to send you away?" The man said again, and under their fuss, everyone got more than ten cents from Li Qingshi.

The welcoming team entered Li's yard smoothly, but Zhang He was speechless with five cents in his hand.Suddenly heard a sneer from the side, she turned her head to look but her eyes lit up: "Ji—Miss Xia!"

Xia Jiniang was dressed in Tsing Yi, with a little powder and daisy on it, and a begonia-style hairpin she gave her was stuck in her bun. She didn't have many accessories, but Zhang He felt that she looked beautiful and refined.

"They've all gone in, why are you still standing there?" Xia Jiniang asked.

Zhang He came back to his senses and looked at the bustling main room, and said, "It seems that there is nothing wrong with me."

"Lu'er is having fun inside!" Xia Jiniang pointed inside.

Mr. Yin Yang was spreading five grains, bean money and colorful fruits, and a group of children rushed to pick up the fallen bean money and colorful fruits on the ground.Zhang Xian had never experienced it before. When he saw Gaojiang and Gaohe brothers bending over to pick up beans, money and colorful fruits, he became interested and picked them up.

Zhang He smiled, and looked at Xia Jiniang again: "Did Lady Xia come here alone?"

"I came with my parents, and they are in the house right now." Xia Jiniang said.

At this time, the front of the new house became quiet, but the ceremony officer invited the new couple out of the room.Li Qingshi held the bamboo slips, hung red and green colors, and tied the "one heart knot" backwards; Chen faced him, hung the "one heart knot" on his hand, and walked slowly to the front of the hall with him.

Xia Jiniang said to Zhang He: "Let's go in and watch the ceremony!"

Zhang He nodded, and he squeezed in from the crowd.

The two elder brothers of the Chen family also came to the Li family. Aunt Li sat in the hall, while Xia Jiniang's parents and the elder brother of the Chen family sat next to each other.Li Qingshi lifted off Chen's hijab, and first paid homage to the Li family's great-grandfather and his late father, and then paid respects to relatives.

After the ceremony, Mrs. Chen led Li Qingshi back to the room instead, and outsiders could not spy on the excitement in the back room.

It was Shen Shizheng at this time, and the people in the village came back from the fields, and those who were invited came to Li's house.Ladies from the neighbors who were free came to help with the cooking. After Li Qingshi and Mrs. Chen changed their makeup, they came out to thank the relatives and guests who came.

Zhang He walked around with Li Qingshi all day, and only then did he understand why the expenses of weddings and funerals are such a big expense. San Sha, and the money for the wine prepared for the wedding banquet, calculated to empty the family's fortune.

Li Qinggui made the calculations for Zhang He, and Li Qingshi spent 47 yuan for this wedding, which is equivalent to 7 yuan in modern times.And Xia Jiniang's elder brother Xia Luojin even spent 55 pennies to get married, not to mention the expenses of the upper-class family on the wedding.

"Erlang, have you learned anything today?" Li Qinggui asked Zhang He.

"What did you learn?" Zhang He asked back.

Li Qingshi smiled: "The matter of getting married! I believe that you will also get married in a short time. The etiquette may be more complicated than this, so don't panic."

Zhang He never thought that he would get married at all, but at this moment she looked at Xia Jiniang.Li Qinggui's voice was loud, Xia Jiniang heard it from the female family's table inside, and she happened to face Zhang He who was sitting outside, seeing her looking at her, she couldn't help but look back and ask with her eyes: What do you think I am doing?

Zhang He avoided his gaze, lowered his head, took a sip of his wine, and said, "I should give this to Brother Qinggui."

Li Qinggui put his arm on Zhang He's shoulder, and asked in a low voice: "Erlang, tell me the truth, are you still a boy?"

"Pfft—" The wine spewed out of Zhang He's nostrils, and she quickly turned around and coughed violently with her sleeves to cover it up. It can be seen that Li Qinggui's words really shocked her.

Everyone looked at her, Li Qinggui didn't expect Zhang He's reaction to be so strong, he smiled at the people at the same table, and whispered to Zhang He: "Could it be that I'm right? You don't need to be so cautious!"

Xia Jiniang stood up when she saw Li Qinggui put his arm on Zhang He's shoulder, and then saw him whispering in Zhang He's ear, and felt even more uncomfortable. As soon as she walked out, she saw Zhang He turned around and coughed.Her figure drifted over, and a handkerchief was handed to Zhang He.

Zhang He took her handkerchief and wiped his mouth and nose. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong, but when he looked up, he saw that it was Xia Jiniang.When she thought of Li Qinggui's words, her face, which was already flushed from coughing, turned even redder to her ears, because at this moment, she smelled the fragrance of Xia Jiniang's body.

"Cousin." Li Qinggui was stared at by Xia Jiniang, and for some reason, he nervously withdrew the hand on Zhang He's shoulder.

"Your cousin, it's inappropriate to hook your shoulders in front of guests." Xia Jiniang reminded softly.

"What my cousin said is true." Li Qinggui said, but he wondered in his heart that Xia Jiniang didn't know how to talk about etiquette to him before, what's wrong?

Zhang He originally wanted to return the towel to Xia Jiniang, but then remembered that he had soiled it, so he said, "Thank you, Mrs. Xia, I will return this towel to you after I go back and wash it clean!"

"I'll take it back and wash it." But he stretched out his hand and asked Zhang He to get back the towel.

"This is impossible." Zhang He stuffed the scarf into his arms.Under Xia Jiniang's scrutinizing gaze from Xia Da and Xia Cui's, she regretted being impulsive. She couldn't get the scarf back, so she had to go back to the table.

At this time Li Qingshi came over, pulled Li Qinggui aside, and ordered in a low voice: "You should talk to the people in the village more, you will inevitably have to deal with them when you come back."

Li Qinggui pouted: "Brother, what are you talking about, I don't really want to come back!"

"As soon as mother gives orders, don't I have to come back obediently?" Li Qingshi rolled his eyes at him and said again, "I'm so busy today that I'm dizzy and don't have much free time, so I entrust you to do something."

"What is so mysterious, brother, tell me, I'll listen."

Li Qingshi whispered into Li Qinggui's ear, Li Qinggui's eyes widened, and he whispered: "Hey, why didn't I notice when they entered the city together during the Huachao Festival, brother, you didn't tell me earlier, I would have known I won't talk nonsense with Erlang anymore."

"what did you say?"

"Hey, I thought he came from a rich family and should have a housemate at this age, so I asked him if he was still a boy. I wanted to take him to Xinjie to see and see, but it seems that I can't go."

Li Qingshi glared at him. Xin Street is a well-known one among the more than 20 flower and willow alleys in Fuzhou City. This street is almost full of brothels, and it is also a very lively place at night. Anyone who has lived in Fuzhou City for many years knows it.Li Qinggui wanted to take Zhang He there, but he was not afraid that Mrs. and Mrs. Xia and Xia Jiniang would blame him in the future!

"Not only is he not allowed to go, but you are also not allowed to go in the future!" Li Qing said angrily.

"I listen to big brother!" Li Qinggui smiled shyly.

Li Qinggui returned to the banquet, but he kept in mind Li Qingshi's instructions, he had a lot of tricks, he thought of a clever plan after a while, and immediately sat next to Xia Da, persuading him to drink.

Xia Da doesn't drink well, he doesn't drink alcohol on weekdays, and couldn't stand Li Qinggui's persuasion, he became dizzy after three bowls of wine.

Li Qinggui said to Xia Cui: "Auntie, Uncle is drunk."

Xia Cuishi looked at Xia Da, and hated iron but steel: "Persuade him not to drink too much, why did he get drunk, how can he hurry now?!"

Li Qinggui said: "It's already dark, it's dangerous to go on the road, Auntie might as well stay here for one night!"

Xia Cuishi hesitated, but she couldn't carry the drunk Xia Da back, so she couldn't make up her mind for a while.Aunt Li didn't know Li Qinggui's plan, she saw that Xia Da was drunk, so she persuaded Xia Cui: "Maybe our sisters haven't had a long talk for a long time, why don't you stay tonight and chat with me."

Xia Cuishi was moved: "Of course I would like to stay, but if I stay, then your brother will have to live with my beloved, and may have to look after him in the middle of the night, I can't do that."

Li Qinggui slipped back to Zhang He's side: "Erlang, is it convenient for you to stay overnight at your house?"

Zhang He nodded: "There are still six vacant rooms, but only two rooms are equipped with bedding. If there are many people staying there, they may need to go back and clean it."

Li Qinggui said happily: "Two rooms are enough. My uncle is drunk, and my aunt and cousin won't be able to go back tonight, so I need to stay with you for a night. I don't know if it will disturb you."

"Of course it's fine."

Zhang He followed Li Qinggui to Xia Cui's, and after she made a meeting ceremony, Li Qinggui said: "Auntie, don't worry, there is still a spare room in Erlang's house, you can borrow one night in Zhang's house."

"Donkey brother agreed?" Aunt Li asked.

Zhang He smiled: "This is a good deed, so is there any reason not to agree?"

"Okay, now, you can stay, just talk to me at night."

"Then I'll let you know." Xia Cui said.

Zhang He was very unkind and thankful that Xia Da was drunk, otherwise she wouldn't be able to see Xia Jiniang after tonight.Although he knew that his feelings for Xia Jiniang would not bear fruit, there was no way to stop the gushing emotion, the only way to stay was as long as possible for one more night, to leave a little lovesickness.

"Brother Qinggui, I'll go back and clean up. You can help Uncle Xia to my place!" Zhang He said.

"it is good."

Zhang He told Zhang Xian not to run around, and she went back first. She lit the oil lamps in the two rooms in the East Wing, took a feather duster to pat off some dust that she hadn't noticed on weekdays, and then went back to the room to move out the spare bedding .

Looking at the empty wing room, she secretly hated herself for thinking that Zhang Xian and herself were the only ones living there, so she didn't buy more tables, chairs and curtains, and worried about whether they would be bitten by mosquitoes at night without the curtains.

She thought about removing her curtains, and then went to sleep with Zhang Xian for a night, after all, it didn't matter if Zhang Xian was a child.

But as soon as she walked out of the door, Li Qinggui and Xia Jiniang came in with Xia Da on their shoulders. She went over to help and said, "I have tidied up both rooms, but they are a little rough. I hope Miss Xia doesn't mind."

"We are already very grateful for Zhang Erlang's offer of a place to stay, so why would he mind?"

Li Qinggui threw Xia Da on the bed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to Zhang He: "Erlang just go to sleep tonight, just leave a door for my aunt and let my cousin close it, I'll go back first!"

"Your cousin, you go back, I'll get daddy some water to wipe his face." Xia Jiniang said.

Li Qinggui glanced at Zhang He, then walked away carelessly: "That job, I'll leave it to you!"

After Li Qinggui left, the candles in the room shook for a while, and Xia Da snored from the bed. Zhang He felt his heart beating so fast that his eyes had no place to rest, so he could only point to the outside: "I'll go and give you my curtain." house."

"Your tent was given to me, what about you?"

"I'll sleep with the deer all night."

"How can this be possible! I don't need the curtain, so don't bring it." Xia Jiniang said.

"Then—" Zhang He scratched his head, Xia Jiniang smiled, "Okay, don't think about it, according to your habits, you probably don't remember that wormwood can repel mosquitoes!"

"..." Zhang He thought to himself, what a shame!Obviously she is usually very eye-catching.
