Eldest daughter

Chapter 42
East House.

Sitting on the kang, Mrs. Liang listened to Mrs. Zhang's sister-in-law Mrs. Zhou boasting about her natal nephew, with a serious and solemn expression, as if she was listening to something important.

"Our two families are relatives. Sister Yuan also called me aunt. If I really think that the two children are not right, I will not ask Zhu Matchmaker to come to my house. This is what my sister-in-law meant. She I am very pleased with your Yuaner!" Mrs. Zhou was wearing a dark red jacket with twigs and flowers, a silver hairpin on her hair, and thinly twisted silver bracelets on both hands, sitting upright with her waist straight. On the kang, that posture was very lofty, squinting at the Liang family and said: "Our Zhou family is not that rich and powerful, but we also have twenty acres of good land. Yuan girl used to be not the eldest daughter-in-law. In the future It is an inexhaustible blessing to become a small family by yourself, not to mention, my sister-in-law loves him very much, can you give him more in private?"

"Her aunt, your Zhou family is a good one, but don't look at me softly, you have a good idea in your heart. I must ask her about this matter, besides, she is still in Xiaozhong." Mrs. Liang smiled lightly. She wanted to propose marriage to Wang Yuaner, but she didn't expect Mrs. Zhang's sister-in-law to come to her door suddenly. She brought a matchmaker to propose marriage, and she was talking about her natal nephew.

Mrs. Zhou was a little displeased when she heard the words: "Isn't the marriage of a daughter here all decided by her parents? It doesn't mean that she is going to get married soon. Now that she is engaged, it is also a matter of getting married in a year and a half. It is also my sister-in-law's fancy. Because of the girl's temperament, she solemnly entrusted me and Matchmaker Zhu to come here."

"That's right, sister-in-law, that kid Shun Xing is a good boy, after passing this village, there will be no more shops like this!" Mrs. Zhang helped out: "You also want Yuan girl to marry a good man, right? !"

Mrs. Liang frowned. She didn't like to hear Mrs. Zhang's words. She said that apart from this young man, Yuan'er of her family would not be able to get married, so she lowered her head: "It's a big deal for a woman to marry, but it shouldn't be taken lightly. , left and right are in the filial piety period, and gradually they look the same."

Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhang looked at each other, and then saw Mrs. Liang pulling the needlework basket to make a female celebrity, and then stood up: "Then how about I wait for your news for two days? I'm not boasting, my nephew is indeed born with a good character. Several housewives have sent people to check on my sister-in-law!"

Liang Shi smiled.

Mrs. Zhou couldn't hold back her face, she snorted softly in her nose, and left, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly chased them out. The two of them met Wang Yuan'er in the yard.

Wang Yuan'er smiled at the two of them and greeted them. Zhou Shi was embarrassed at Liang's, and gave Wang Yuaner a lukewarm hum.

After the two left, Wang Yuan'er hurried into the room, and Liang was holding the shoe upper in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Wang Yuan'er was anxious, so she sat down beside her and asked, "Mother, what is Min'er's aunt doing here?"

"Ah, you're back." When Liang came back to his senses, seeing her anxious face, after thinking about it, this daughter is getting older, so he should always ask her for her opinion, so he explained Zhou's and the others' intentions for coming. .

"Mother listens like this, but it's a family relationship. Bashang Town is not a remote place. Zhou's family also has fertile land, and the families have separated long ago. The house your Aunt Min'er mentioned is three houses and two sons. In the future, you don't have to live with the mother-in-law when you divide the family, and the population is relatively simple, so Shun Xing's age is also suitable for you, what do you think?"
