Begging You to Break Off This Engagement!

After Xi Yanqing delivered the betrothal gifts, the Luo family should keep him to eat wine, but the borrowed ox cart was to go up the mountain to cut wood, so after the people who came to join in the fun had left, Xi Yanqing would go up the mountain with Luo Tian.Han Yang also planned to go with him, just as their family also wanted to get some new chopsticks and a chair for the child, and for logging, the more people there were, the better.

Luo Fei wanted to follow, but he had his own things to do.Li Yuehua arranged a good job for him.

It stands to reason that Xi Yanqing should send the cloth together with the betrothal gift. In this way, the married party will finish the quilt, and then put it in the dowry and take it back to the groom's house. Both parties should do the same. It's done, and it looks good.But at that time, Xi Yanqing and Luo Jina had too many things, so they didn't buy any fabrics. What should we do?Li Yuehua planned to take the children to take care of the matter while the head of the family was busy outside.It wasn't the old man's business in the first place, so she didn't plan to count on Luo Tian.So before Luo Tian pulled the ox cart and left, Li Yuehua said, "I'll take Erbao to the town today and cut some cloth. I haven't made the quilt yet, so I need to make it quickly."

"Success." Naturally, Luo Tian would not object to this kind of thing, "Go early and return early, be careful on the way."

"It's because I didn't handle it carefully, and I caused trouble for my aunt." Xi Yanqing happened to be there, and he really felt that something was wrong with him.It's better to hire someone to help deliver the fabrics after buying that day, than not to have time to delay things.

"Hey, what's the trouble? You're a young man, and you don't have a helper around. You've done a good job. Don't worry, Auntie doesn't mean anything else. Besides, have you finished your wedding dress? Haven’t you yet? You have to hurry up on this matter.” Li Yuehua said, “Yanqing, come in and let Erbao measure the ruler for you.”

"Will he make it for me?" Xi Yanqing was a little surprised.

"That's right? What's wrong with that? The Erbao in my family is a bit lazy, but his needlework is as good as one. It's not that my aunt is bragging, there are not many people in the ten miles and eight villages who are as good at Erbao's craftsmanship. " Li Yuehua suddenly shouted, "Erbao, take out the ruler!"

"Understood mother!" Good guy, give me a big job as soon as I give it, make wedding clothes for Xi Yanqing!It's a good thing that he intends to practice acupuncture, otherwise he wouldn't do it!

"Hey, they charge manual fees." Luo Fei said bluntly.

"You brat!" Li Yuehua just heard it, "Slap!" and slapped Luo Fei's back, "What kind of handwork money did you charge! That's your man and you still ask him for money? You're so stupid! "

"Oh mother, how can you imitate my father! Can you pat lightly next time?"

"I still think it's too light!"

"Heh, he's kidding me, Auntie, it's okay, besides, I can't let him suffer for nothing." Xi Yanqing really took out the money, and it was only a tael of silver.He handed the money to Luo Fei, "It should be enough to buy fabric and cotton. You can buy the rest of what you like."

"Are you sure?" Luo Fei was a little confused.A tael of silver!Now he no longer thinks that a tael of silver is very little, after all, there are hundreds of taels and tens of thousands of taels on TV, which has nothing to do with civilians.For him now, one tael of silver is equivalent to several months of living expenses, which is a lot.

"You are my fiancée, and we will officially get married in less than half a month. I will give you money as it should be taken for granted." Xi Yanqing didn't even frown when she said this, it was very natural, as if he I've always thought so.

Luo Fei had no way to refute, looking at Xi Yanqing's smiling face, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.He looked away: "Then I'm not welcome."

Originally, I wanted to add another sentence, "I will pay you back when I make money later", but I didn't dare to say it because there were people around me.

Li Yuehua packed two packages of dry food, one for Luo Tian to carry, and the other for herself.She also asked Luo Ru and Luo Yi to take good care of the house, and made dinner so that they could eat something ready-made when they got home, and then took Luo Fei out.

"Luo Fei! Wait a minute!" Xi Yanqing suddenly stopped Luo Fei who was about to leave the gate.

"Why?" Luo Fei stopped at the door.

Xi Yanqing went into the kitchen and came out again, Luo Fei didn't find anything unusual.But as soon as the man raised his hand, he wiped his face quickly.

"Hey! What are you doing?!" Luo Fei felt as if something had been wiped on his face.

"Pfft! Brother Xi, you just can't let go of my second brother." Luo Ru said, "Second brother, Brother Xi has stained your face and it doesn't look that good, but it's safe to go to town like this. Who told you It looks so good-looking."

"That's right, I've just been hired, and I haven't married you yet. If I'm kidnapped, wouldn't I be at a loss?" Xi Yanqing said and returned the small purse he had received to Luo Fei, "Take this too, just in case..."

"Fuck you!" Luo Fei quickly snatched the conversation back, and glared at Xi Yan with red ears, "Mother, hurry up! If you don't leave, it's too late!"

"Yes, yes, then let's go, and you should be careful when you go up the mountain." Li Yuehua was almost jogging out of the village led by Luo Fei.

Xi Yanqing watched from behind and couldn't help laughing.

"Tsk, let's go, boy Xi, if you don't go, I think your soul will be hooked to the town by the second treasure, how can you go up the mountain with us to cut wood?" Luo Tian patted Xi Yanqing's shoulder, "Let's go .”

"It's really sweet as a new wedding is approaching. But it's okay, brother understands!" Han Yang smiled and got on the bullock cart to drive away.

Luo Fei and Li Yuehua must not walk as quickly as Luo Ji and Xi Yan. After all, they still have long legs. Besides, the distance is not close.However, for Luo Fei, the most difficult thing along the way was not Lu Yuan, but what his mother kept telling him.Why should you be more polite to Xi Yanqing in the future, how can you talk to your husband like that.And after getting married, I can't be lazy anymore, I have to wash the clothes well, cook the meals well, and wipe the table well.The couple live a life with one master inside and one master outside, so they have to be busy both inside and outside, so that the little days can be more and more prosperous.

Luo Fei heard it all the way, and his head was getting bigger!

But Li Yuehua still seemed to say that it was not enough: "You, you are spoiled by your parents. But you have to write down what your mother said, you know? You are not allowed to be like a child again in the future. Also, divorced In some days, in addition to making clothes for Yanqing, you will learn cooking skills from Sanbao. According to me, you and Sanbao should be evenly matched, so that both of you can do needlework and cook well. Why did one person occupy one?"

"Oh my mother, how can anyone be perfect? ​​Just have one thing." Luo Fei waved his hand, "Let's not talk about that, please help me see if this cloth is good."

"It's okay to make a quilt. Boss, how do you sell this cloth?"

"In terms of size or horse? One horse is ninety wen, one foot is nine." The shopkeeper said, "If you're making quilts, it's better to use the horse."

"It's cheaper, we want two horses."

"Yeah, uncle, let's make it cheaper." Luo Fei didn't know how to bargain before, but now he is forced by reality to be one step closer to becoming a miser.The key is really poor!It's so rare that I have a tael of silver in my hand and I'm going to spend it soon!

One piece of cloth here is four feet long, which is more than 13 meters, and two pieces should be able to make six quilts.The quilts here are all single-person quilts, and it is rare to make double-person quilts, because the cloth surface is not as wide as modern ones, and some are rare.Luo Fei is now thinking about making two quilts, and then making two quilt covers and a quilt.In this way, the two pieces of cloth should be almost used, because the mattress cannot be used separately, which is unlucky, and the two pieces of cloth must be put together.It is estimated that he can't do it secretly, because all these have to be done before getting married.

"88 horses, no less." The boss said.

"Oh, it's only two renminbi cheaper. If it's cheaper, it's 85 renminbi. Boss, it's 85 renminbi. If it's [-] renminbi, I'll take three horses."

"Huh? Mom, don't you need so much?" Three pieces of cloth! 85 wen a horse, two horses plus one will cost more than 100 wen, three horses will cost more than 200 wen.A tael of silver is only a thousand coins in total. I will buy Xi Yanqing's clothes in a while. Is there any left? !By the way, this cloth is too expensive!Even if Yuqing country's cotton production is low, it can't be so bad, a cow is only five taels!

"It's useful! You can buy two horses by yourself, and it will be included in Yanqing's dowry, and the mother will buy one horse to make up for your dowry."

"Oh!" You can have this!Luo Fei felt that it was not kind to pick on her natal family, but a cloth dowry was not too much.

In the end, Li Yuehua finally negotiated the price, and bought three bolts of cloth for 250 Wuwen.Luo Fei spent another ten fen to buy some big cloth heads.If these cloth heads are combined into a whole piece, the area will be almost one zhang. What makes Luo Fei most happy is that there are all kinds of materials in it, not only cotton, but also a small amount of satin, which can be used for handicrafts.Anyway, he bought these for home use, such as pillowcases or something.A large piece of Brie is probably not enough.It is also good to practice embroidery skills.

Li Yuehua knew that he liked these things, so she didn't care about him, after all, it was only one time in her life.Ten pennies, and the flowers are spent.

The couple walked around and bought cotton and cloth for Xi Yanqing's clothes. Luo Fei also went to several embroidery workshops to check.I don't know if it's because the place is too small or something, but the things in the embroidery workshop don't look very good.Luo Fei felt that the ones he hadn't embroidered for a long time were better than those.It's no wonder that Li Yuehua said that he has a good handicraft.Regardless of whether it is the original owner or him who is boasting, the facts are not bad.

Li Yuehua was carrying cloth, and Luo Fei was carrying cotton.Luo Fei saw that Li Yuehua's was too heavy, and hurriedly carried the fabric on his shoulders: "Mother, let me do it. The cotton is lighter, so you carry this."

In fact, Li Yuehua's strength is not weaker than Luo Fei's, it should be said that he is stronger than Luo Fei.But at this time, the child's mind still prevails.Besides, as she said before, you can't be coddled.

Luo Fei carried the fabric all the way back to Huaping Village.As for the rest of the money, he didn't spend a dime.Originally, I saw candied fruit and wanted to buy some, but seeing the amount of money in my hand, I decided to forget it.Xi Yanqing had some money at least, but he really didn't have any.In modern times, he has never been short of money, and his mother or grandma always asked him before he was short of money, and never let him stop spending.But now it's good, I can't bear to buy a candied fruit.

There is no way, having money has become a habit, and without money there is no sense of security, so he has to endure it and not spend it.

He endured it all the way, and he was almost out of mental illness. Fortunately, there was meat waiting for him at home, which became the greatest comfort.

Luo Ru's needlework skills are directly proportional to his cooking skills.As soon as Luo Fei entered the door, there was a tangy aroma.Luo Ru not only steamed steamed buns and made porridge, but also made a big bowl of braised pork, and added a lot of soaked dried beans to the meat to relieve the fat and taste.

Luo Fei felt that if he had another bowl of white rice at this time, he would be completely consummated today, but there was definitely no rice.This is already the New Year's treatment.

Before Luo Tian and Xi Yanqing came back, Luo Fei could only taste a few bites in the kitchen.Don't say he is greedy, even Luo Yi and Luo Ru are greedy, after all, they can't eat meat a few times throughout the year.

"Mom, can we raise a few more chickens this year?" Luo Yi asked with his fingers in his mouth.

"Success." Li Yuehua said very happily, "Let's raise a few more this year." In fact, we have raised a lot in the past, but more than half of them have been sold to subsidize the family.

"Mom, tell me when you buy chickens this year, and I'll buy them too." He probably should have moved to Xi Yanqing's place by then, and Luo's family raised them, so he wanted to raise them, and he wanted to raise more.It is best to raise some ducks and big white geese.

"Second brother, don't you bother raising these the most? You think it's troublesome to feed them." Luo Yi said with some surprise.

"Let you, brother Xi!" He is in charge of watching, and Xi Yanqing is in charge of feeding, and the bill will be split fifty-fifty at the end of the year!

"What should I feed?" Xi Yanqing just came back and asked Luo Fei.

"Feed the chickens, I want to buy chickens when the weather gets warmer." Luo Fei said, "Is that okay?" To live together, it's Xi's family after all, so it's better to ask Xi Yanqing.

"Of course, my home is your home, what's wrong?" Xi Yanqing patted the dust off her clothes, "This room smells so good."

"That's right, I made braised pork!" Luo Ru said triumphantly, "Borrowed from brother Xi and brother two, haha."

"Didn't you say to cut wood? Where's the wood?" Luo Fei didn't look at the wood.

"Part of it was thrown into the river, and some were shipped directly to me. Han Yang also shipped some." After Xi Yanqing finished speaking, he still felt that his body was too dirty, "Erbao, can you help me get some water? I'll wash it .”

"Okay." Luo Fei went out with Xi Yanqing and fetched him some water, "Why did you throw the wood into the river?"

"Defeat and remove insects. After soaking, take it out and dry it in the shade before making it into furniture. It will be more durable and not easy to deform. But it's too long to wait for a few years now, so let's dry some of it and make some simple furniture. Later..." Xi Yan Qing looked around and saw that there was no light bulb coming out, and continued to say to Luo Fei: "I will change it later when the conditions are better."

"I hope there will be a day like that." Luo Fei helped Xi Yanqing water, "Hey, well, I bought you some fabrics for you today, and I'll give you a measuring ruler later." His mother asked him to measure the ruler before, and when he mentioned the manual The fee was diverted, and there was no amount.His mother said that he had to be cut tomorrow, and he had to finish it before getting married, otherwise he would be fined to sweep chicken manure every day.

"Okay, I'll measure it after I finish washing." Xi Yanqing had a tired look on her face, but she was always smiling.

Luo Fei watched from the side, and suddenly admired this man.Until now, he still dreams about his past life from time to time, but Xi Yanqing seems to have gotten used to it long ago.This man lives in a small earthen house by himself, the house is cleaned very clean, he cooks his own food, and washes his own clothes. It seems that there is nothing difficult for him, except that he can't make patches.

"Hey, you really don't want to go back at all?" Luo Fei asked mysteriously.He saw that his father and elder brother came to wash his face after Xi Yan washed his face, so he went back to the house with Xi Yanqing.He wanted to take this opportunity to measure the size of Xi Yan.

"No." Xi Yanqing looked at Luo Fei and said, "You don't know how grateful I am for this arrangement."

"Damn, brother, are you sick?!" Thank you for the arrangement from the flush toilet to the latrine? !Or thanks for the arrangement of tap water and well water? !

"Don't be afraid if you are sick, anyway, I found the medicine." Xi Yanqing smiled, "I think you should be like me, forget about the past life, and start over, so that you may find that your current life is not bad. .”

"I'll try my best." Luo Fei measured it, and suddenly glared at Xi Yanqing: "Hey, can you breathe lightly, you? The heat is hitting my face!"

"No." Xi Yanqing said, "You don't even look at what you measure."

Luo Fei looked down, the hips...

His hand was right in front of Xi Yanqing's bird...

Jeez!
