Farmer's Favorite

On the way to the town, Zhuang Xinyan didn't let the black donkey go too fast. The wound on Lin Qi's hand was no longer oozing blood. Once he walked too fast, the bumpy road would probably make the wound worse.

There was hay piled on the trailer, and seeing Lin Qi sitting upright, he inevitably felt a little tired, so he dragged him to lie on the hay together.

Lin Qi struggled a little, and moved his body to the side as much as possible.

With one hand resting on his arm, Zhuang Xinyan turned his head to look: "Why do you want to run up the mountain today?"

Looking for something to say, in fact, I didn't want Lin Qi to be so nervous.

Lin Qi said softly: "There are some wild peach trees on the mountain, I want to go and see if the fruit is ripe."

Zhuang Xinyan said: "Tell me where it is, and I will pick some for you tomorrow."

"No need." Lin Qi shook his head and said, "I saw it, it's still green fruit. You don't like sour ones, you need to grow them for a while before they become sweeter."

Zhuang Xinyan suddenly came over and said with a smile, "How do you know I don't like sour?"

But immediately, without waiting for an answer, he frowned slightly and said, "Since you are going up the mountain to pick fruits, why did you provoke wild boars?"

Lin Qi didn't think there was anything wrong, so he said as a matter of course: "Why don't I want the prey that came to my door? The wild boar ran away when it saw me, and I chased it for a long time before catching up."

Zhuang Xinyan was dumbfounded, and stretched out his hands to rub the top of Lin Qi's head indiscriminately, feeling that the guy was injured by himself.

Seeing the dull expression on Zhuang Xinyan's face, Lin Qi was a little confused. So, he used to encounter some small prey at most when he went up the mountain. Today, he rarely encountered a wild boar, so naturally he would not let it go. Even now, even if he can carry the wild boar back He felt it was worth it for some injuries.

After all, selling the wild boar can also be exchanged for a lot of money.

But what their family lacks now is money.

But at this time, Lin Qi was slightly depressed, thinking of Zhuang Xinyan's words before, he said softly: "If there is a next time, I will pay more attention and try not to hurt myself."

"Next time we go together, with me by my side, even a tiger can't hurt you." Zhuang Xinyan responded gravely, this was his promise.

And at this time, he also had some thoughts in his mind. He had thought before that he would go hunting in the mountains when he had no money in his hands. It is really easy to get no money in such a big mountain, but now, looking at the young man beside him, he looked at I have a different idea about hunting in the mountains.

After just getting along, he knew that Lin Qi was no better than the other Shuang'er, he was very resilient and could support everyone, and he could also imagine that if the two of them really got together in the future, when he was on the mountain When hunting, Lin Qi will never stay at home alone, but is willing to follow him. Although he can protect his safety, he is not afraid of [-], just in case.

Therefore, he is really thinking about how to make a living in the future.

When they came to the town, the two went to the medical clinic first. The elderly doctor looked at the wound for a while and bandaged it up. The wound was treated very well, so he only prescribed some decoction and let the two leave.

This was the first time that Zhuang Xinyan brought Lin Qi to the town, but seeing the sleepy look on Lin Qi's face, they didn't wander around, but went back to the village directly.

After sending him home, he went directly to Lin Ma's home.

"Propose marriage?" Her voice raised, but Lin Ma didn't show much surprise on her face. After all, she had already seen that if Zhuang Xinyan didn't plan to propose marriage, she would feel strange instead.

"You also know that I don't have an elder, and I don't have a clue how to handle the marriage proposal, so I want to ask." Zhuang Xinyan was not shy at all. When he proposed marriage, he could tie people by his side. No one would gossip even after getting in touch with each other more, he said again: "As for the day of getting married, I want to wait for the house to be built first before discussing it."

Mrs. Lin Ma listened and nodded, and she said: "There is nothing to do to propose a marriage. You prepare some things, and the old lady will come to your door as a matchmaker to propose a marriage for you. However, the old man of the Lin family is not a good person. I am afraid that the dowry will be a lioness." Open your mouth, you have to think about it."

Old man Lin is the first person Zhuang Xinyan came into contact with in this world, and he has heard a lot of stupid things about him on weekdays. However, such a person bullies the weak and fears the tough. People, be gentle with your means.

He said: "It's nothing, I'll prepare some gifts first, please come and walk for me tomorrow."

Lin Mashi explained a few more words, and Zhuang Xinyan rode a black donkey to the town again.

Country people are not as complicated as townspeople when it comes to marriage proposals. According to Grandma Ma, Zhuang Xinyan sold a dozen catties of pork, a jar of brown sugar, two packs of snacks, and a few feet of coarse cloth in the town.

Adding these together, it is considered a great gift in Xishan Village.

Zhuang Xinyan was still thinking about putting the Azure ready-to-wear that he bought last time in it together. He thought it was very suitable for Lin Qi when he bought it, but he never had a chance to give it away. After buying it for so long, he kept it at home. Now I finally have a chance to send it out.

"Steamed buns, freshly baked steamed buns, two papers each, guest officer, how many would you like to come?"

Zhuang Xinyan's footsteps stopped suddenly. He looked at the steaming booth next to him, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

Immediately, he walked to a grocery store on the side and bought some ingredients. What was even more rare was that when it was time to pay, he paused for a moment, and it was the first time he opened his mouth to bargain. Although the tone of the bargain was unfamiliar, the effect was impressive. is good.

Seeing that he bought a lot of things, the shopkeeper of the grocery store insisted on reducing the change.

At this time, Zhuang Xinyan vaguely realized that some ordinary people lived for daily necessities.

……

At this time, Lin Qi was already resting on the bed, and the rest of the Lin family returned home. They heard some news outside, and wanted to ask Lin Qi to ask something, but they pushed and yelled, but there was no one. Dare to wake people up.

No way, I can only hold back what I want to ask in my heart, and wait until the next day to ask.

Who knows, before the Lin family asked, they waited until Lin Ma came to propose marriage.

"Cheng, Cheng, let's agree to this marriage."

The members of the Lin family were all smiling, and Lin Li immediately responded, as if he was afraid that Mrs. Lin Ma would retort. Just as he had thought before, the biggest wish of their family was to marry Lin Qi. Even if it's free.

However, his thoughts really do not represent everyone in the family.

Old man Lin was already ecstatic. Who is Zhuang Xinyan? He sold a big worm. Seeing him building a house and buying land, he must have a lot of money in his hands. How could he not be willing to earn a dowry when his twin'er married? He rubbed his hands and said, "Our Lin Qi is a good boy, and the dowry is quite a lot."

That greedy look made people feel sick just looking at it.

Madam Lin said indifferently: "Then how much are you going to ask for? You have to know the situation in our village, even the best Shuang'er girls don't get married for more than five taels of silver."

"Nonsense, isn't the Shuang'er in Linde's family only worth 20 taels of silver?" Old man Lin said quickly, obviously five taels of silver is not worth looking at.

Lin Ma slammed the table, and she said angrily: "Is Lin De's twin married? That's obviously a crime to sell to others!"

Old man Lin shrunk his neck suddenly, but insisted on gritting his teeth: "I don't care, if there is no 20 taels of silver, this marriage will not be possible."

As expected, it was the lion who opened his mouth. Mrs. Lin and Ma looked at him with a sneer, and directly carried the basket that Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Wang had turned over, and walked straight out of the door without saying a word.

"Ah, what are you doing, auntie, let's talk about it." Lin Li hurriedly stopped her, but she just saw that there were all good things in the basket, so what if it was delivered to the door Willing to be taken away again.

"What are you talking about? I want to see who is willing to talk to you after passing through this village." Mashi Lin said, she knew that what she said was a bit harsh, but if she didn't talk to Old Man Lin like this, this marriage is still a matter of course. It's hard to talk about it.

"Grandma Ma, please drink a glass of water to catch your breath. Dad was also confused for a while, so don't blame him." Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand and pulled Mrs. Lin and Ma to sit down. It's too late, if you don't let us know, how much dowry Zhuang Xinyan plans to offer?"

"Two taels of silver."

As soon as the words fell, everyone was stunned.

Because these words did not come from Mrs. Lin Ma, but a person who came out of the back room.

Lin Qi's face was very calm, and he said again: "Two taels of silver is fine."

The old man Lin was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, he said: "What are you talking about, I am your father, I have to listen to this matter!"

"Back then, my parents used two taels of silver to marry my eldest brother a wife. Now it's my turn to marry, so naturally it's the same." Lin Qi's eyelashes trembled slightly. When he said these words, he still felt a little uncomfortable, but let him hide in the Listening to his father's nonsense in the room, he still prefers to make decisions by himself.

Lin Mashi finally had a smile on her face, she felt that Zhuang boy did not find the wrong person.

"No, no, I don't agree." Old man Lin waved his hands and shouted, the money he got was gone, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

Lin Qidao: "Then I will stay at home and serve my parents all my life."

"Marry, marry, marry, I agree to this marriage." Lin Li said hastily.

"That's right, two taels of silver is enough, it's best to discuss a date as soon as possible to hold a wedding."

"If you want me to say, just next month, how many good days will there be in next month?"

Lin Li and his wife also rushed to chat.

It is clear that, except for old man Lin, everyone hopes that Lin Qi will marry as soon as possible. Although everyone loves silver, they are more clear than old man Lin. Twenty taels of dowry is absolutely impossible. Lin Qi is not a fairy in their family. Spend so much money to marry a twin and go home.

They all hope that Lin Qi will become someone else's husband, and their lives will no longer need to be frightened.

Old man Lin was so angry that his heart ached and his liver ached, but no one in his family took him seriously. They were happily discussing the matter of getting married beside him. The face, the words came to the lips and could not be yelled again.

At this time, he felt that it hurt so bad even to breathe.

The author has something to say: Zhuang Xinyan: Let alone 20 taels, our daughter-in-law’s 200 taels are worth it!Give it all to my wife!

Lin Qi took out his hand: Where is the money?

Zhuang Xinyan immediately hugged her up and said, "I'm 200 taels, and the whole thing is yours."

... Lin Qi looked disgusted.
