Yoshida Mii

Chapter 319
"How can I do that?" Quanzi is unwilling, he likes to go far away, experience the freshness and excitement different from Tagouji, and make a lot of money by the way. He was young before, and he didn't have the opportunity to experience such a good experience. Now that he has experienced and enjoyed his life, how can he be a farmer in Tagouji with peace of mind?

Mrs. Li patted Quanzi and said with a smile: "You child, your mother finally hoped for you back, can't you just say a few words to please her?"

"Hey, hey! I know." Quanzi said with a grin, his mature face had a mischievous look suitable for his age, "Mother, I will stay at home for a while."

Aunt Qiuxia wiped away tears, nodded and said: "You should be engaged too, mother will find you a few more girls." Aunt Qiuxia made a good plan, the eldest son has a good reputation, the family business has income, and the younger son's Marriage will definitely not be difficult to find, and the girl you are looking for will not be bad. When she and Lin Fu grow old, they will definitely live with Dashi and Dongbao. Being the second daughter-in-law does not need to serve the elderly, and they are willing to marry the daughter-in-law .

As soon as he talked about kissing, Quanzi became ashamed, and after a long time, he blushed and said to Aunt Qiuxia: "Mother, there is a man who wants to tell me his daughter, and he asked me to go home and ask you. If you want, you can go to his house to propose a marriage, and you can give the dowry whatever you want..."

"Whose girl?" Aunt Qiuxia asked with her eyes wide open.

Quanzi smiled, his cheeks flushed, "I told you last time, the daughter of the boss of the boat is twelve years old, and she is still running the boat with his father. I have seen her this time when I came back."

"Didn't you say that he was joking with you last time?" Lin Shi asked amusedly.

"I thought he was joking. He has more than a dozen boats in his hand. He wants money and money and people. How can he think of a poor boy like me? This time he told me again, and I knew he was serious." Quanzi said coyly.

Aunt Qiuxia frowned, "No way! Our family is a farming family, and the boat runner...is not the same as us!" In the eyes of ordinary people, it is impossible to own more than a dozen boats in the Grand Canal. She is definitely not clean, and she is definitely not a kind and honest person. Dealing with this kind of person makes her feel guilty, and she would rather find an honest country girl as a wife for the whole son.

"Ah?" Quanzi yelled in disappointment, and seeing that Aunt Qiuxia had no room to turn around, he nodded sullenly, "I see." After a while, Quanzi couldn't help but said again: "Isn't the boss of the boat?" The kind of person you think, his daughter is also very good."

"That's not okay!" Aunt Qiuxia totally disagreed, she just likes well-behaved and sensible little village girls, if she can grow up to be more beautiful, it would be even better to reach the village flower level like Dongbao.

Under Lin Shi's urging, Quanzi put on his coir raincoat, and went back to Tagouji together with Aunt Qiuxia. Old man Lin and Lin Fu must have known that Quanzi was back at this moment, and they must be anxiously waiting at home .

After discussing with Mrs. Li, Dongbao went to a shop selling stewed meat in the town and bought five catties of cooked beef and a stewed pig's head, cut everything at home, poured sesame oil and garlic sprouts on it, and could eat it directly. After returning to Lin's house, Quanzi came back, and there must be more food at noon.

When Aunt Qiuxia came to work the next day, she secretly said to Dongbao, "How much money do you think Quanzi got back this time?" She also reached out her hand to give Dongbao a two sign.

"200 taels?" Dong Bao asked tentatively. In fact, 200 taels was a lot. They were delayed on the road for such a long time, and they spent a lot of money on the road.

Aunt Qiuxia shook her head, "2000 taels!"

Dong Bao also gasped, "Why so much? How did he get it back?"

"This kid is not stupid, and he knows how to change it into a bank note and take it with him. He is afraid that others will find out, so he dare not even take a bath on the way, and only takes out the bank note when he gets home to take a bath." Aunt Qiuxia said, "Listen to him He said that he couldn't make so much money by selling bean curd sticks. He used the money he earned as capital to buy leather goods from the Northwest and sold them to Beijing and Anzhou. "

Dong Bao smiled and nodded, "Quanzi is bold and careful, he is a good material for business!"

"He also wants to open a few more shops in various places, selling our tofu outside, and turning inside, so that he and the caravan can have a resting place when they go back and forth, which is also convenient." Aunt Qiuxia said with a smile.

"That's good! How much money does he need? I'll take a share." Dong Bao smiled. She doesn't have the courage and skill of Quan Zi. Firstly, she is a woman, so it is inconvenient to walk around. Secondly, she is born with a timid and cautious character. , this kind of character is doomed to be a little rich, and it is impossible to make a big fortune.

Ever since Quanzi came back, Aunt Qiuxia has been busy making an appointment for Quanzi. Now that the Lin family is living a good life, there are not too many families willing to marry the Lin family from all over the world. complained.However, a few days later, Lin Shi actually told Dong Bao that his family was going to Anzhou to meet the boat boss.

"Is it about getting married for Quan Zi?" Dong Bao asked in surprise, "Isn't Auntie unhappy?"

Lin Shi smiled and said: "My mother is not happy, but Quanzi doesn't say anything, but everyone can see the displeasure. My father said that getting married is a lifetime thing, and you have to find someone who suits you. Said let our whole family go to Anzhou to see the boat boss and his daughter, and if they are honest people, we will settle down for Quan Zi."

"Then you have to look carefully." Dong Bao smiled. In fact, she also felt that this matter was a bit suspenseful. People who couldn't get along with them were going to become in-laws, but Quan Zi was such an unexpected person. Ordinary women are definitely not used to him being away all year round, and they don't have the guts to go out with him, but the daughter of the boss of the boat should have the courage, right?That's just the right pair.

The Lin family went to Anzhou and came back after staying for a few days. When they came back, the whole family was beaming.

"Is this a match?" Li Shi asked with a smile.

Aunt Qiuxia nodded, "That girl is not bad, she is the fifth child at home, she has three older brothers and one older sister, she is straightforward and generous, her father is a bit scary, but he is quite polite to us, and her mother is also easy to talk to. "

"It's fine if you like it!" Li said with a smile, Quanzi can earn money. In the future, Lin Shi and Dongbao will be responsible for providing for Qiuxia and Lin Fu. In fact, as long as the youngest daughter-in-law is not a prodigal, she will not It has too much influence on the family.

After Aunt Qiuxia was overjoyed, she sighed, "Actually, it doesn't matter what we look at. The key is that the whole son is in love. The girl is not only good-tempered, but also pretty. Her father said that their family is not short of money." He also didn't want to marry his daughter to an official family. He was afraid that those officials would look down on him because of his poor background, so he took a fancy to Quanzi's character and ability. It would be a pity if I didn't receive my own son-in-law."

After the two parties reached an agreement, the engagement matter was naturally handled quickly. The Lin family held a grand engagement ceremony in Tagouji, and the woman also held one in Anzhou.

That day Dongbao also went to join in the fun with Lin Shi. He didn't expect that the other party would have such a big battle. Not only did he buy the Octagonal House, but he also bought three restaurants including the Tofu Shop. He also set up several tables in his yard. Some people came to congratulate him. The bosses of the boats running on the canal included businessmen from Anzhou and several officials from Anzhou.

Dongbao also met his future sister-in-law Liu Fanghua. The little girl is not very old, but she has grown to be as tall as her. It is probably because she has been on the boat all year round. She is not very white, has big eyes, and has two dimples when she smiles. , looked very clever and lively, and even took Dong Bao to her room to talk for a while, and she didn't seem difficult to get along with at all.

"I heard Quanzi talk about you. You grew up together. He said you are so smart." Fanghua said with a smile, and asked Dongbao to eat the peaches washed on the table. You, their family is not what it is now, and it is impossible for him to have a chance to come out."

"Listen to him!" Dong Bao smiled. As a sister-in-law, she is still very modest in front of her future sister-in-law. "Even without me, with Quanzi's temperament, he can go out and make a career for himself."

Dong Bao thinks that if Quanzi decides on such a daughter-in-law, it is unlikely that he will live in Tagouji in the future, and even if he does, it will not last for a few days.Not to mention that she saved a lot of private money, and Liu Fanghua is not a girl from a poor family. There are three maids serving in Liu Fanghua's yard alone. Today, whoever picks up less firewood and who cooks less than a meal will quarrel and vent their anger, and there will be no trouble because the old man secretly used his private money to subsidize which family.

Lin Fu and Aunt Qiuxia's money, they probably don't care about it...

Since they don't live together, there is no conflict of interest, everyone is not short of money, and supporting the elderly will not be a problem. Dongbao can foresee that everyone can get along well in the future.In fact, the problem of sisters-in-law in the world, to put it bluntly, is a matter of money. If everyone is not short of money and there is no conflict over the division of family property, how can relatives get along well?

When Dongbao was looking at Liu Fanghua, Liu Fanghua was also secretly observing Dongbao. She had already inquired about the affairs of the sister-in-law's house in the future. This little girl is not much older than her. She has spent so much money, but she can only play around with her father in the name of running a boat, which makes her a little ashamed.

Moreover, her parents had warned her that her future uncle would be a hardworking and studious man, he is already a scholar, and at least he will be a successor in the future.Their family is all boat runners. In the eyes of those scholars, although they are rich, they are low-level people who can't stand on the stage. They can get married with others, which is a good home. They are all people who can go further. In the future, we will have to rely on them. Since the future sister-in-law is an easy-going girl, then she has to reciprocate and make a good relationship.
