Dressed as the uncle of farming culture

So when Li Xiucai was still injured and could only hide in the yard for a walk or something, she heard Mrs. Li come back and talk about someone coming to Xiao's house to propose marriage.

"Which Xiao family?"

Li Xiucai asked.

"Mo Xiucai lives in Xiao's house over there," Mrs. Li said softly, "He is going to marry Xiao Simei. I heard that young man is still a cousin of Mrs. Chen's natal family."

what? !

Li Xiucai only felt a lump in his throat, and the fishy and sweet smell rose up directly.

This is so angry that I want to vomit blood.

As if she didn't see the ugly appearance of the other party, Mrs. Li continued, "I heard that things are going well, and even the date has been set, and it will be the spring of next year. Sir, should we not follow the ceremony?"

"Whatever!"

Li Xiucai swallowed the blood forcefully, and said sharply.

Mrs. Li was taken aback, "Master, you seem very angry?"

"...You have completely forgotten how I got this injury? I hate the Xiao family and Mo Xiucai so much, you still want to follow the ceremony? The money at home is too much and there is no place to use it?!"

The more Li Xiucai scolded, the more comfortable she became, and she scolded Mrs. Li for all the troubles during this period.

The story of Mrs. Li rushing out of the gate of Li's courtyard while crying while carrying a small burden quickly spread throughout the village.

When Li Xiucai's parents returned home, they only saw the smashed-up house and their son sitting at the door of the main room with a gloomy face.

"Where's your wife?"

Li Xiucai's mother asked tremblingly.

"Let's go," Li Xiucai said.

"You scolded her away?"

"Isn't it just a woman? I'm a handsome scholar, so I'm afraid I won't be able to marry a good woman?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" His mother scolded, "How much your uncles have helped you these years! How can you have the idea of ​​​​divorcing your wife!"

"She came to our house and hasn't been pregnant for several years! This alone is enough to abandon her!"

"Why isn't she pregnant?" His mother was also impatient, she could say anything, "It's because you don't touch her very much!"

"How can I touch her? How can I touch such a vulgar person! Father, mother, the one who forced me to marry her was not the one I wanted to marry!"

Li Xiucai was so angry that she couldn't choose what to say when she thought that Fourth Sister Xiao was from another family.

But the aunt who likes to watch the excitement, after seeing Mrs. Li leaving, she wanted to come over to see what happened, and ended up listening to such a big show outside the door.

So Li Xiucai didn't touch Li Niangzi very much, and it was said that Li Xiucai never touched Li Niangzi, and a few days later, it was directly said that Li Xiucai could not touch Li Niangzi.

But the Xiao family was very happy to hear it.

"Killing me!"

Second Brother Xiao smiled like a fool and slapped his thigh fiercely.

"The rumors are misleading," Xiao Le also laughed.

Mo Xiucai was afraid that he would hurt his stomach from laughing, so he told him not to bend over and laugh.

Fourth Sister Xiao was making wedding dresses in her room, and she had bought all the red cloth for making clothes and shoes.

"Second brother, you're not too young anymore, it's time to think about the important things in your life, your sister-in-law and I..."

"Hiss, I don't seem to have brought back my hoe. I'll go to the field to have a look," Second Brother Xiao knew the end after hearing the beginning of Brother Xiao's, so he immediately got up and went out.

Brother Xiao couldn't even call back, and Aunt Xiao could only look at Mo Xiucai and Xiao Le.

"Don't look at us, he can't be in a hurry," Xiao Le said.

Mo Xiucai nodded at the side, it can be seen that Xiao Le has already known about Mrs. Xiao's request to Mo Xiucai.

Seeing him like that, Mrs. Xiao really didn't know whether to say that their relationship was so good that there was no secret, or whether he should tell Xiao Le everything.

After Second Brother Xiao left home, he carried a hoe on his shoulder and walked directly in the direction where Qingqing was working today.

Their family has no land over there, but that doesn't prevent him from wandering around.

Not long after, I saw Qingqing struggling to get up with a basket full of pigweed on her back.

Brother Xiao wished he could rush over to help her carry her back.

can not.

Next to her mother-in-law.

There are also working villagers around.

After watching the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walking towards Lu's house, Second Brother Xiao stood there for a long time, and went to his own field with a hoe on his shoulder.

I don't know if it's because of the basket, since Qingqing took the basket away, she never ate the food after that.

Even though Xiao Le "blocked" the opponent several times with the basket, Qingqing still didn't move.

Brother Xiao thought of Qingqing's thinner face, and scratched his hair a little irritably.

"Qingqing, are you going to collect firewood?"

"Hello fourth aunt, yes, there is not much firewood at home."

Qingqing's voice came from the side of the road, and as soon as Second Brother Xiao looked up, he saw her holding a hatchet and carrying a basket on her back.

"Then you have to come back early, it's going to rain today."

"Hey," Qingqing responded, and after accidentally glancing at Second Brother Xiao in the field, she quickly turned her eyes away and walked quickly to the back mountain.

Second brother Xiao looked at the sky worriedly. As for her mother-in-law, who ever asked her to bring some bundles of firewood back?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for it to rain heavily.

Brother Xiao came to the field to find someone, and took Second Brother Xiao home directly.

Brother Xiao, who returned home, was always restless.

Seeing this, Xiao Le sat beside him and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"Qingqing went up the mountain, I'm worried that something will happen."

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier, Second Brother Xiao didn't hesitate anymore, put on his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, and went straight out the door.

"Where are you going in such a heavy rain?"

Brother Xiao asked loudly behind him.

"I'm going out for a walk!"

Brother Xiao didn't even answer.

go shopping?Where to go shopping in such a heavy rain?

Brother Xiao found that he really didn't understand what young people were thinking.

The heavy rain was pouring down, and a thin woman was wet all over. She was shivering from the cold, and the lush branches could not protect her from much rain.

She was hungry and cold, and her right foot was sprained again, and now it seemed to be two times bigger than the other foot.

Looking at the gloomy sky, listening to the thunder in the sky, Qingqing raised her hand and wiped her face, not sure if it was the rain or tears on her face.

She is so tired.

But still don't want to die.

A person's smiling face and those few stones came to mind, Qingqing gritted her teeth, stood up with the help of the tree, put the basket on her back, endured the severe pain in her feet, and walked down the mountain with the firewood.

But as soon as he took a step, he was frightened by a burst of thunder, and his whole body rolled down after his foot slipped!

"Qingqing!"

The second brother Xiao who rushed over happened to see this scene, he rushed over without thinking, and grabbed Qing Qing when he rolled down!

But with such a big impact, Second Brother Xiao almost fell to the ground, and there was a sharp sound on his arm.

There were some scratches on Qingqing's body, but there were no major wounds. Second brother Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, ignored the opponent's struggle, and put him down carefully.

Put the bamboo hat on Qingqing's head directly, and take off the coir raincoat and put it on Qingqing's body.

"Don't..."

Qing Qinghong wanted to take it off, but Second Brother Xiao squatted in front of her, "Come up."

Qingqing shook her head.

Second Brother Xiao simply put the person on his back, "If you struggle again, we will all have to roll down."

They are not on the mountain road now, but on the hillside.

Qingqing could feel Second Brother Xiao's hands trembling very much. She thought of what she realized when the other party caught her just now, and began to struggle desperately.

"You are hurt!"

"Don't move, I'm fine," Second Brother Xiao gritted his teeth and started walking towards the mountain road, "Don't move, or I'll be gone."

"You don't have to worry about me."

Qingqing choked up.

"It doesn't matter who you care about," Xu said because the rain was loud, and Second Brother Xiao became more courageous, "I don't even eat rice! Didn't I eat all of them before? What happened later? Is it because I'm afraid it will be poisonous?"

Qingqing didn't speak, tears fell down the man's back along the rain.

The rain was flowing wantonly on the mountain road, even with coir raincoats, the two of them were blown enough by the wind and rain.

The blue veins on Brother Xiao's neck hurt, but he didn't dare to let go.

It just kept going down the mountain.

When Xiao Le and Mo Cheng found the foot of the mountain, they saw this scene.

Xiao Le asked Mo Cheng to go home to look for Mrs. Xiao, and went over to replace the second brother Xiao, "Second brother injured his hand, let me come."

"I'm fine," Second Brother Xiao still wanted to be brave, but Qingqing grabbed his hand, and under Second Brother Xiao's cry of pain, looked at his swollen hands choked with tears.

"Why are you crying?" Second Brother Xiao put his hands on his back, "Third Brother, come on, I really can't do it."

Xiao Le sent Qingqing directly to the village doctor, but he just left her at the gate of the courtyard, and soon Mrs. Xiao came, and she helped Qingqing at the gate and walked into the yard.

"Second brother also goes in."

Xiao Le said.

"I'm not going," Second Brother Xiao watched Qingqing go in, "I have wound medicine at home, it's fine."

He was afraid that after entering, it would be more difficult to explain, and Mrs. Xiao would still be able to come back.

"I'll take care of the injury. Second Uncle has a broken bone. You'll be fine after taking it back and raising it," Mo Xiucai said.

So the three of them returned home. Seeing them coming back, Fourth Sister Xiao hurriedly brought ginger soup, and Brother Xiao also boiled hot water so that they could take a hot bath.

"Second's hand..."

Brother Xiao sharply noticed something was wrong.

"It's okay, big brother," Second Brother Xiao smiled, "I'm very happy today. I protected the person I wanted to protect. I'm very happy."

When Mo Cheng set his bones, Second Brother Xiao was smiling.

After they took a shower and changed into dry clothes, brother Xiao went to pick up sister-in-law Xiao.

"Qingqing is at the village doctor's place for the time being. None of the Lu family members showed up. I'm afraid that Qingqing will be seriously injured and they will pay the money."

After Mrs. Xiao finished speaking, she looked at Second Brother Xiao, "No wonder you kept hiding it."

Fourth Sister Xiao was shocked.

Brother Xiao frowned, "The Lu family won't let anyone go, so it's going to be difficult."

"It's very easy," Mrs. Xiao said with a smile, "The Lu family won't let anyone go, but Qingqingniang's family can ask for someone."

Brother Xiao's eyes lit up, "Sister-in-law?"

"Don't get excited," Xiao Le patted him on the shoulder, "Don't forget that Qingqing's parents are the masters of wealth, how much money do you have?"

"...a total of two, two or three dollars."

Second brother Xiao exposed his private room.

"When the Lu family married her back then, the other party asked for ten taels of silver," Mrs. Xiao frowned. "I'm afraid this amount is indispensable now, but the family can make up for it. It's just that Qingqing will take it after she goes back. I'm afraid it will cost more." Twelve will do."

This is a total of 20 taels of silver.

An ordinary family of three spends only two or three taels of silver a year.

It can be seen that 20 taels of silver is not a lot.

"Your elder brother and I still have more than five taels of broken silver here," Sister Xiao said.

"Including second brother's point, there is no more than ten taels."

Fourth Sister Xiao frowned.
