Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Wanghai County, Changping Village.

Small second room.

Yang Yongjin drank a cup of wine. The wine was sweet-scented osmanthus wine. It was not very strong. It was a sweet wine made by mixing sweet-scented osmanthus and rice wine. Because except for him, a big man, the rest of the family were women and children and could not drink it. Soju.

As for drinking soju, there is no point in drinking it by yourself. You need someone to accompany you.

Since there is no one to accompany me, I might as well drink some sweet wine.

The wine was sweet, and the festive dishes on the table in front of me were also rich.

In the middle of the dinner, Yang Yongjin looked at Cao Bamei who was removing fish bones from the mistress on the table, and then looked at Xiuxiu who was holding Yongxiao in her arms and was busy feeding Yongxiao, but he couldn't take a bite of it.

Look at the second daughter next to her who is about to get her haircut and is embroidered in red...

Yang Yongjin lamented that as the youngest son of this family, he still has a long way to go to shoulder this burden...

It would be great if Xiuxiu could have a complete family and a reliable husband to help her share the burden, and she could rest assured.

The moment Cao Bamei raised her head, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Yang Yongjin's worried look. Then Cao Bamei guessed something.

But she didn't say anything. She just handed the chopsticks back to the mistress: "You are already a big child. Learn to eat by yourself. Don't expect your mother to fix everything for you."

After a while, Yongxiao must have been full, so he shook his head and refused to take any more food from Xiuxiu.

Yang Yongjin stretched out his hand: "I'll hold Yongxiao for a while, and you can take a few bites of Xiuxiu."

"okay."

Xiuxiu was in a good mood tonight. She happily put Yongxiao into Yang Yongjin's hands, picked up her chopsticks and started to eat.

Yang Yongjin teased Yongxiao a few times, and the baby grandson grew again. He had a chubby face and a small butt, and he felt heavy in his arms.

But now that he was full, the eldest grandson was unwilling to move. He stood on Yang Yongjin's lap, his little head resting on Yang Yongjin's shoulder, humming, staring blankly at the cat squatting in the corner behind Yang Yongjin. .

Yang Yongjin gently stroked his eldest grandson's back with his big hand, but kept looking at Xiuxiu who was sitting opposite and chewing on a chicken leg.

"Xiu, today is the festival, and dad has two heartfelt words to say to you,"

Xiuxiu suddenly raised her head, and when she saw her father's serious look, her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately sounded the alarm.

"Dad, it's a holiday today, so don't say anything that will ruin the scenery."

"It's not something that would offend the scenery, it's something that must be said."

"I don't like hearing it."

"You girl, your father hasn't even said anything yet, how do you know you don't want to hear it?" Cao Bamei, who was sitting next to Xiuxiu, gave her an accusing look.

Xiu Xiu disagreed, "I can tell with my toes that my father must have advised me to go on a blind date as soon as possible, so I can get married myself!"

"Do you think I would like to hear such words?"

Cao Bamei was speechless and could only look at Yang Yongjin.

Yang Yongjin frowned slightly: "Xiuxiu, don't be so resistant every time your parents mention this to you."

"You have to know that men should marry when they are young and women should marry when they are young. Even if they are like your Aunt He'er, they will eventually find their own destination."

Xiu Xiu originally wanted to argue, but after hearing He'er's deeds, Xiu Xiu fell silent for the time being.

To be honest, before Aunt He'er got engaged, Xiuxiu always thought that even if she didn't get married, she would be able to live in her parents' house like Aunt He'er.

She doesn't live a leisurely life and does all the work she needs to do.

However, now even Aunt He'er is getting married again, and Aunt Mei'er is also married. Everyone focused their attention on her, as if it was their turn now...

Yang Yongjin's eyes continued to fall on Xiuxiu. Although he knew that his daughter didn't like to hear these words, he still had to say them.

"Xiuxiu, don't resist certain things. Dad is not trying to drive you out of the house. Dad is planning for your future."

"A woman's family must eventually start a family, just like a man must eventually start a career. This is the responsibility of everyone."

"Dad, I don't understand..." Xiu Xiu poked the rice grains in the bowl with her chopsticks.

"What don't you understand?"

"When I get married, I also take care of the housework. If I stay in my parents' home, I can still take care of the housework and share my mother's burden."

"Why do I have to marry into someone else's family and take care of it? I can't stay in my parents' family. Our family is together, isn't it?"

When Yang Yongjin heard Xiuxiu's words, tenderness and pity filled his eyes, and there was even a look of yearning in his eyes.

How could I be willing to marry into someone else's family when my own daughter was raised in the palm of my hand?

But everything in this world has its own laws of growth. Men should get married when they are old, and women should get married when they are old, and young couples should have old partners.

"Xiu, of course my parents hope that the whole family will be reunited, but when the bird grows up, it also leaves the nest, and when people grow up, they also need to have their own little family."

Yang Yongjin enlightened Xiuxiu with sincerity, "Your mother and I will always get old and can no longer work. At that time, we will all rely on your younger brother and mistress to support us."

"The mistress is going to start a family, you will have a sister-in-law coming in, the mistress is going to have a baby, and you have to raise a baby, so you stay in your parents' house like this, father, mother, mistress, we are your closest relatives, we won't say anything, but Do you think your sister-in-law won’t complain?”

"At that time, the house will be restless every day, your parents will not be able to protect you, and they feel sorry for you. It will be difficult for everyone!"

When Xiu Xiu heard this, she put down her chopsticks with a snap.

She glanced at the mistress sitting on the other side and said, "Brother, sister, I want to ask you a question."

"Sister, what do you want to ask?"

"When you grow up and marry a daughter-in-law, do you dislike your sister and want to kick her and Yongxiao out?"

The mistress looked confused.

Cao Bamei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She touched her mistress's head and said to Xiuxiu, "It's useless for you to ask him now. How old is he? How do you know that?"

But Xiuxiu said stubbornly: "Brother, just tell your sister that when you make money to support your family in the future, will you no longer want or despise your sister?"

The mistress shook her head decisively this time: "No, we are a family."

Xiuxiu was very satisfied with the answer given by her mistress. She turned to look at Yang Yongjin: "Dad, did you hear that? We, siblings, are of the same mind. It's you who thinks too much!"

Yang Yongjin smiled bitterly.

"My mistress's answer makes me, a father, very happy."

"Ke Xiuxiu, don't forget how old he is, and he is not sensible yet. What he says now will not count in the future. If you take it seriously, I'm afraid you will cry one day in the future!"

"Dad, what you said is impossible!"

"You don't believe it? Okay, then I'll ask too."

"Mistress, do you know what a wife is?"

The mistress looked confused and shook her head.

Cao Bamei explained: "A daughter-in-law is a wife. You see, I am your father's daughter-in-law."

The mistress looked at her father, then at her mother, and then said with a smile, "Then when I grow up, will I also have a wife?"
