Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 6795
"Sister, do parents know what's going on between Xiao'an and the daughter of the He family?"

As the elder brother, Da An is extremely concerned about the lifelong affairs of his only younger brother, Xiao An, but he is not at home for a long time, and he cannot pay attention to it as delicately as a woman, so he can only ask his sister here.

"About this question...how can I say it?"

Yang Ruoqing rubbed her temples, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Let me tell you this. The fact that Xiao An and He Lian'er may have a mutual affection is just a guess and feeling in my heart. The last time I asked Xiao An for confirmation, he still insisted on it." Negative attitude, I don’t know if I’m not sure if I’m in love or not, or if I’m in love and I’m too embarrassed to admit it, such a big guy is just like a bitch in this respect.”

Hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Da'an couldn't help but laugh.

He could imagine Xiao An's blushing face, scratching his ears and cheeks at that time.

"As for my parents, I've also checked the bottom line. They are very satisfied with the He family and with the girl He Lian'er herself."

Da'an replied: "I can also guess this, our parents never pay attention to what kind of marriage is right, and we don't have that kind of concept of looking down on others."

Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Our parents really don't care about the external conditions of the woman's family, even the dowry or not, but our parents have a bottom line."

"What bottom line?"

"Xiao An can't get married!"

Daan was silent.

The only son of the He family, He Qingsong, is gone, and the second elder of the He family has only He Lian'er, so it is impossible to marry off the only daughter due to emotion and reason.

"Recruiting a son-in-law... This is indeed a hurdle, and it is difficult for anyone to pass."

Daan pondered for a while and then said softly.

"Yes, so I guess this should be the main reason why Xiao An has not made up his mind. He is a very filial son in his bones, and he doesn't want to make his parents sad."

No wonder Yang Ruoqing said that, no matter what time, space or age, patriarchy has always dominated society.

As long as anyone who goes to become a son-in-law, no matter what the reason is, the public will always think that the man lacks ability, or the family behind him is not in good condition.

This is demeaning for men.

But in the final analysis, these so-called insults to dignity and the pressure of public opinion are, to put it bluntly, still a burden imposed on oneself.

When a person really goes all out and doesn't care about those things, then he follows his own heart, whether he is married or married, is happy.

Just want to achieve that level, this person must meet three conditions.

One: His love for that girl cannot be extricated. There is no other woman in the world who can replace her. She is the only one in this life.

Two: This person has a strong mentality and is not afraid of any gossip and strange eyes.

Three: The tolerance and support of his family behind him.

If there is any lack of the above three points, it will be difficult to make things happen. Even if things are done by force, the married life of the young couple will not be harmonious and happy.

"Speaking of which, it's not easy for Xiao An."

Da'an's voice brought Yang Ruoqing's thoughts back to reality.

"Da'an, have you talked to our parents about the Su family?" She asked suddenly.

Da An shook his head, "Not yet, I must first consult Xiao An, the person involved, before I can inform my parents."

Marriage is not a child's play. Once you tell your parents, it means that you will officially enter the marriage negotiation process.

If there are new variables, the damage will be too great.

Yang Ruoqing hurriedly told Da'an: "For the time being, don't let our parents know about the Su family's affairs. They are embarrassing for the He family, but the Su family is 100% satisfied. Let's not let them know about the uncertainties."

Da'an gave Yang Ruoqing a reassuring look.

"Sister, don't worry, I understand."

……

After waiting for three days in a row, Xiao An didn't come back. Seeing that it was already the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, every household was making new year tofu.

The skill of tofu was brought to this world by Yang Ruoqing.

It can be said that she is the originator of tofu in this world, and she earned her first pot of gold by buying tofu.

Later, she moved her business to other places, and the skill of grinding tofu was not hidden, and it was promoted in the village.

Later, in ten miles and eight villages, even most of the people in Daqi could grind tofu. It can be seen that the learning ability of the ancients was also very strong.

No, every year after the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, every household makes new year tofu, boils maltose, and prepares for the new year in full swing.

No, the backyard of Yang Huazhong's house is also busy in full swing.

Yang Huazhong, Yang Huazhou, Yang Yongjin, Sun's family, these four families gathered soybeans together to make tofu.

From grinding soymilk to boiling soymilk, each family has to work together.

When the tofu nao was cooked, Sun and Bao Suyun took out a stack of bowls and carried them to the yard.

Yang Huazhong took a gourd ladle and scooped a spoonful of tender and smooth tofu nao into each bowl, and Sun and Bao Suyun neatly placed these tofu nao on the table next to them.

"Big guys, come over to drink tofu nao, add sweet and salty ones yourself!"

That's right, on the table are sugar and salt shakers, chopped chives and coriander, fried white sesame seeds, and crushed peanuts.

Adults and children all swarmed over, picked up the bowl and added ingredients according to their own taste.

Yang Ruoqing and Luo Baobao also mixed in.

Both mothers like to drink sweet tofu nao, adding spoonful after spoonful of sugar.

The big guys were drinking tofu nao from a bowl, chatting, and Da Sun even came over with a wooden bucket to pick up the tofu water and went home, saying that he would use the tofu water to bathe Xiao Shunzi and his brothers, so that the next year's skin would be better. Well, no sores.

Hearing that, Bamei Cao was also moved, so she hurried home to find a basin and came to pick up the tofu water.

The atmosphere of the Chinese New Year quietly permeated the crowd, and everyone was full of energy and anticipation.

Mrs. Sun picked up the bowl, took a sip of the tofu nao, and couldn't help but think of her youngest son who was still away from home.

"Hey, it's been several days, why hasn't your little brother Xiao An come back?"

Yang Ruoqing squatted by the side, enjoying the drink, and said without raising her head when she heard the words: "Didn't I just say that, I have to help the He family buy new year's goods first, the He family is short of manpower."

Sun shook her head lightly, "Xiaoan likes tofu nao the most. I didn't catch up with it last year, and I didn't catch up with it this year."

"Mom, it's okay if you don't catch up. We usually have this stuff at home to grind tofu."

"Can the tofu you grind in normal times be the same as the tofu we grind in the twelfth lunar month?"

"Why is it different? Isn't the pulp made from grinding soybeans boiled and solidified?"

Sun frowned, "Hey, don't talk about it, drink it while it's hot."

Yang Ruoqing smiled, didn't say anything, picked up the bowl and continued to drink.

Seeing Bao Zisun's attitude, Xiao An couldn't help but think about it if she didn't go home earlier during the Chinese New Year. If Xiao An really went to He's house to be his son-in-law, how could Bao Zisun accept it!
