Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 227 Don't Let Your Daughter Suffer (Part [-])

"After the pig is sold, buy some gifts and so on, find a couple of days, and pick up the girl from the Bao family." Old Yang went on to think.

Mrs. Tan listened silently, while giving Lao Yangtou a foot massage.

"Matchmaker Zhou is our matchmaker. Let the Bao family find a matchmaker later to make an even number," he said.

"En." Tan replied.

Guessing that the water was a bit cold, Mrs. Tan hurriedly wiped Lao Yang's feet.

Lao Yang thought about something, and asked Tan Shi again: "If you count the days, the fourth daughter-in-law should give birth, right?"

Tan thought for a while and said, "Today is the tenth day of the lunar new year, almost the end of the month."

"Well, during this period of time, you and the eldest daughter-in-law should share more of the housework." Old Yang urged.

Tan sneered at these words.

"Which woman doesn't have children? On the day the third daughter-in-law gave birth to Xiao An, she went to wash with two buckets of clothes in the morning!"

Old Yang said: "You can't say that. The third daughter-in-law is used to doing hard work, so she is solid."

"The fourth daughter-in-law is a bit squeamish, she can't compare with the third daughter-in-law..."

When Tan heard this, he was not happy.

She flicked the handkerchief in her hand into the basin, and stood up angrily.

"How do daughters-in-law give birth to children? It's something that I worry about as a mother-in-law. As a father-in-law, you ask so many questions, and you are not afraid of being laughed at? There is your son in the middle!"

Old Yangtou's face darkened.

"You bitch, why do you think people are so mean?"

"Humph!"

Tan Shi stood aside and snorted.

Old Yang frowned, not wanting to argue with Tan on this matter.

He knew that if a woman messed around, she wouldn't be able to make a name for herself after arguing for three days and three nights!

"In the future, I won't ask about the daughter-in-law's affairs, so as to save you from thinking about it!"

Old Yang said, pointing to the half-wiped feet in the water basin and told Tan Shi: "Wipe it for me quickly!"

Tan pouted, squatted back, and then wiped Lao Yang's head and feet.

"You don't pay attention to what you should worry about. It's not your business, just ask questions."

Tan complained.

Old Yang was surprised: "What did I ignore? Tell me."

Tan said: "Third house is buying a field, you are happy. The fourth daughter-in-law is giving birth, you are in a hurry. You don't even ask me about our Meier!"

"What's wrong with Mei'er?" Old Yang was surprised.

"She eats, drinks, and lies down all day long. For such a big girl, she doesn't have to do any work. What can she do?" Old Yang asked.

Tan shook her head, looking worried.

"Our daughter is getting older, and some thoughts have been moved. I'm afraid she won't be able to stay for two years!" Tan said.

Old Yang got some flavor out of these words.

"Mei Erniang, please tell me the whole story, has our Mei Er fallen in love with someone's youngest?"

Tan nodded.

Knowing daughter is more like mother. Although the daughter did not say it clearly, she is someone who has experienced it.

From the girl's appearance, speaking, and reacting...

I'm afraid I really like that kid!

"Which family is it the younger generation? You tell me!" Lao Yang was in a hurry and asked there.

Mrs. Tan came back to her senses, frowned and said, "Tang Yazi from the old Luo family!"

"What?"

Lao Yang was startled, his mouth was so wide open that he could stuff an egg into it!

"How come? The two of them are inseparable!"

Old Yang was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.

"However, having said that, Tang Yazi is really not bad, our Meier has vision!" Old Yang sighed.

"Humph!"

Mrs. Tan snorted, curled her lips, and said angrily: "What kind of eyes do you have? What's so good about that kid?"

"No father and no mother, living with that old bachelor Luo Blacksmith, the family is poor and poor."

"That's all. That kid is still a hunter. He has been hunting in the mountains all year round, and his head is pinned to his belt."

"If our Mei'er marries him, we will suffer a lot and have to worry about it all the time."

"Maybe that day, that kid won't be able to come back after entering the mountain, and our Mei'er will have to be a widow..."

The more Tan thought about it, the more frightened she became, and finally couldn't speak anymore!

Hearing Tan's analysis, Old Yang was also silent.

Putting it in a farmer's house, with no fields, no land, no father and no mother, even if the boy himself is not bad, he will not succeed in the end!

"Mei Erniang, then you talk to me about this, do you have any plans?"

Lao Yangtou then asked Mrs. Tan.

Tan Shi said: "My five sons only got such a girl, and raised her so big with her heart and liver."

"I wouldn't even agree to let her go to Lao Luo's house to suffer that crime!"

"Father Mei'er, I'm thinking, let's quickly arrange the marriage of the fifth son, and find a good husband's family for Mei'er to take over!",

"After finding her in-law's family, our Mei'er's thoughts will naturally change, and we will feel at ease." Tan Shi said.

A look of embarrassment appeared on Lao Yang's face: "With our Mei'er's appearance, it may be a little difficult to find a husband's family who agrees with us in everything!"

Tan Shi was a little annoyed when she heard this.

"What about our daughter? Our daughter is fat and big buttocks. She is very fertile, Wangfu!"

Old Yang was silent.

He just spoke the truth.

From a man's aesthetic point of view, a girl like this is not very pleasing.

Mrs. Tan, however, was very proud of the girl she had trained, and she was still thinking: "Our Meier doesn't know how to do needlework, and she won't be able to serve her in-laws well after she is married."

"It doesn't matter. At worst, I will give her some more dowry, so I can still be confident in my in-law's house!"

Old Yang nodded: "Success! Then do as you said, and call Chen Butcher over to lead the pigs in these two days!"

"Ok!"

……

People in the country depend on what they get from the fields for food and clothing.

After deducting exorbitant miscellaneous taxes and rent and so on, the income from that point is only for food and clothing, and there is not much money left for living.

But a family has a lot of things to take care of.

Building a house, moving, getting married, visiting relatives and friends, old people passing away...

It's impossible to have a few living money on hand!

Therefore, it is essential to raise pigs, chickens and ducks.

From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, it was hard to turn the little piggy into a fat and strong pig.

When it's time to sell, that's a big deal!

The next day, Tan invited Butcher Chen to his home.

Old Yangtou took Yang Hua'an, Yang Hualin, Yang Huazhou, Yang Yongqing and other children and grandchildren, and they all accompanied Chen Butcher to watch the pigs by the pigsty in the backyard.

The movement in the yard alarmed Yang Huazhong in the house.

The man was sitting in a wheelchair, pushed out of the room by Yang Ruoqing, and sat under the wall to bask in the sun.

He lay in bed for more than a month without seeing the sun.

His face was morbidly pale.

However, the spirit head is not bad.

He sat there, smiling and looking at the old Yang's pigsty opposite.

Behind him, Yang Ruoqing stood there obediently, holding a bowl of brewed tea in her hand, and also looked at it curiously.

Just listen to the old butcher commenting on the big fat pig for sale.

The pig hair is deep, the pig skin is thick, the fat is not enough, etc...

She summed it up, and Chen Tuhu was just picking on the bones, trying to dismiss the price of nine cents per catty proposed by Old Yang.
